In an escape game...

Before Yun Xubai could move, the door was violently kicked open.

The flashlight shone in and landed on the face, Yun Xubai lowered his eyes to avoid it.

The flashlight swept across Yun Xubai's body from top to bottom, and it was fixed at his feet. Only then did the visitor confirm his identity, and smiled: "Xubai, did a ghost old woman run in just now?"

Standing at the door was one of the players who competed with Yun Xubai for the position of the main god, the god Thorn.

"Well," Yun Xubai motioned him to look at the window: "I sent her down, are you going to find her?"

The god Thorn shrugged: "Yes, I will send you points as soon as the game starts."

Yun Xubai reckoned that the "welcome ceremony" of the dungeon was over, so he turned on the light without worrying about causing danger.He pointed to the puppet man who was standing on the bedside at some point, and said to the god Thorn: "There is also a gift package of points, you can try it."

"You also have puppets here, and there may not be too many puppets in this room." Thorn the God looked at the weird-looking puppet and raised his eyebrows: "I haven't figured out the origin of these things yet, don't dig holes for me, I won't Be a guinea pig."

Yun Xubai pursed his lips: "The old lady ran out of your room?"

The god Thorn nodded: "As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a person sitting opposite me and staring at me. Later, I found out that it was a puppet. Before I could do anything with the puppet, the old woman pretended to be a player and broke into my room. Slip fast."

The Npc slipped away, and the first reaction of the god Thorn was to chase and kill him, as expected of him, with a distinctive style.

"The situation is similar to mine." Yun Xubai glanced at the side of the bed, the position of the puppet remained the same, but the direction of his eyes changed.

The god Thorn asked him, "What do you think?"

"It's too early to say." Yun Xubai said.

Yun Xubai didn't say it directly, but he had considerations in his heart.He believes that the dungeon arranges these weird but not murderous dangers at the beginning, not to kill the player, but to imply something.

For example, the ghosts here are good at camouflage, or be careful about mirror images.

"That's right, let's take a look again." The god Thorn said: "You can't live in this room, go sit in the lobby on the first floor."

After leaving the room, Yun Xubai had a new understanding of the environment he was in.

This is a large wooden building with two floors and a hollow design. The corridor is connected by a winding staircase.

As far as the eye can see, there are exquisite wooden ornaments and dolls. These little things are colorful. Walking in them is like accidentally breaking into the world of fairy tales - without knowing that the puppets here can move.

Looking down from the corridor, you can see several people sitting on the sofa.

When Yun Xubai and Shenming Jingji went downstairs, those people stood up one after another.

Yun Xubai saw two familiar players, Fei Er and He Xue.

Seeing Yun Xubai, He Xue showed a refreshing smile: "Brother Xu, we finally meet."

Yun Xubai once formed a team with He Xue, and was deeply impressed by her ghost-eating skills, and has added game friends in private.

When the team was formed, Yun Xubai invited her, but she thought that she was not strong enough, and wanted to increase the player level before joining.

According to the rules, He Xue's player level is not high enough to break into the full-level dungeon, so he should have been caught by the system and stuffed in.

"Long time no see." Yun Xubai smiled at He Xue, and sat down beside her.

Fei Er who was next to him nodded friendly at Yun Xubai, strode up to God Thorn, and gave him a bear hug: "Brother, I guessed that I would enter this dungeon before, but I didn't expect to actually enter."

The god Thorn lifted Fei Er by the collar, pulled him away, and joked: "With you by my side, I feel that Xu Bai's winning rate is a little higher."

"Then let me change the camp." Fei Er looked at Yun Xubai with a smile: "I'll give you a free part-time job, what do you think?"

Although Yun Xubai and the god Thorn are rivals, they have a good relationship, so they dare to joke like this.

"Extremely happy," Yun Xubai said, "It depends on whether the gods are willing to let people go."

The god Thorn raised his chin: "Okay, then let's change teammates and let your cool girl come to my camp."

He Xue shook her head resolutely: "No, it's a loss for me to switch to Brother Xu."

God Thorn: "..." As expected of Cool Sister.

Fei'er: "..." I was heartbroken.

The atmosphere here is very harmonious, and other players have come to say hello one after another.

This is the most important live broadcast since the escape game was launched. Except for the three main god candidates, every player is carefully selected by the system.There are well-known anchors, and there are also front-row rankings. The gold content of the players is higher than that of the copies of the two plays.

The problem lies in this, when the player's ability is generally higher, the difficulty of the copy will be reduced.The system is so arranged, there must be a backup.

There was a lot of movement upstairs, and after the shrill screams, a door opened, Gao Ling led a girl out of the circular corridor, and looked down.

After meeting his eyes, Gao Ling took the initiative to greet Yun Xubai, and took the girl downstairs.

Players went downstairs one after another, and soon, there were nearly twenty people standing sparsely in the living room.

Everyone knew in their hearts that the protagonists of this dungeon were the three candidates for the main gods, and they were all quietly looking at them.

Until a fat male player came downstairs and attracted their attention.

The players became agitated in a low voice.

"It's ten catties, I knew I might run into him!"

"What kind of Shura field is this? The top four on the ranking list are all here. I heard that Shi Jin questioned the selection criteria of the main god before. Now that we meet, isn't it going to be a bloodbath?"

"I feel that there is already a murderous look on him...Really, it feels like the visitor is not kind."

Yun Xubai is no stranger to the new male player.Every time I look at the player rankings, I always see the opponent's id. "Don't change your id if you don't lose ten pounds" has always occupied the No.1 position in the whole server. Even the god Thorn, who has been in the server for a long time, has not surpassed him.

Shi Jin has many titles, and he is an existence that all players in the server have always wanted to surpass.

Shijin himself is slightly fat and has an ordinary appearance. At first glance, there is nothing impressive about him, only a pair of bright eyes.

Hearing the players' discussions, Yun Xubai remembered that Shijin had indeed publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the main god competition.The main god competition directly decided the candidates for the competition. Until now, Yun Xubai did not know who the two players who were eliminated before were.

As No.1 in the whole server, Shi Jin didn't qualify for the competition, so one can imagine how upset he felt.

Yun Xubai suspected that Shi Jin was included in the dungeon just to let them have a platform to compete, and whoever refused to accept it would speak directly with strength.

"It's menacing." The god Thorn patted Yun Xubai's shoulder: "He's coming after us, be careful."

[As we all know, Ten Jin has opinions on this main god competition]

[God, a person who weighs ten catties can be regarded as a boss, right? The system is making it more difficult for Brother Xu and the others]

[It’s okay if there is a legitimate competition. If you want to be the main god, you have to convince the crowd. If the other party competes maliciously, then you don’t have to worry. Brother Xu and the others can treat him as they want to the black kite]

After Shijin approached, the players became quiet.

Shi Jin smiled kindly, and chatted with the nearby players in a familiar way, like a beast with its claws put away.The players were very curious about him, and slowly started talking about him.

Probably because the players gathered together, the system sent a new notification:

[Reminder: 1. This copy is a full-level copy, and death will not cause substantial damage to the player's body. 2. If you fail to clear the customs of this copy, you will not be forced to withdraw. 3. Not dying does not mean the customs clearance is successful, only death/clearance can leave the instance. ]

Yun Xubai had heard of the first two points, but was only a little curious about the third point, which sounded a bit torturous.

Among the people present, only Shi Jin and Shenming Thorn had experienced the full-level dungeon, and they hadn't succeeded yet. The players were full of curiosity, but they didn't dare to ask.

Yun Xubai looked to the side, the god Thorn's face was a little pale, as if bad memories had been brought back.

Sensing Yun Xubai's gaze, the god Thorn looked sideways slowly, and sighed after a long time: "I have experienced two full-level dungeons, each time is very evil, I have no experience to give you."

Yun Xubai nodded: "Whether you pass the customs or not, after the dungeon is over, the result of the competition will be announced."

The god Thorn smiled wryly: "If the whole army is destroyed, the result will be that all of them will lose the election."

Yun Xubai frowned: "Did no one survive the two dungeons you experienced?"

The god Thorn said in a low voice: "It is possible to live to the end, but because of the third rule, even if the player is alive, he cannot leave the instance. In the end, he was driven to despair and had to commit suicide to leave the instance."

Yun Xubai suddenly remembered that the task of this dungeon is to "complete the trial", a very vague task, like an open test question, there is no standard answer, and it all depends on the person who made the question to judge whether it is right or wrong.If they can't figure out the answer, even if they are alive, they will be trapped in the dungeon forever.

Thinking hard.

The outdoors slowly lit up, and the gloomy atmosphere that seemed to exist in the room dissipated a little.

There was a small voice in the room closest to the hall, and someone pushed the door and came out slowly and gracefully in front of everyone.

This is a middle-aged man in a suit and holding a folder, even his hair is meticulously tidied up.The man bowed slightly and spoke unhurriedly: "Good morning, distinguished guests. I am the housekeeper of the Puppet Mansion. On behalf of Puppet Town, I would like to welcome you all. I hope you will feel comfortable and at ease during your stay. Today's itinerary has been released, please respect me. Let's take a look."

The butler opened the folder and handed out a thin itinerary to everyone.

The butler looked neat and clean, with no wrinkles in his suit, but the itinerary that the player got was yellow and wrinkled.

Yun Xubai sniffed the paper and smelled a faint smell of blood.

The paper suddenly felt a little hot.

The itinerary has only a few lines:

"The itinerary of the investigation team of a certain toy company."

"Day 1: 2. Visit the puppet town to feel the cultural atmosphere. 3. Visit the puppet hall, appreciate the exquisite puppet crafts, and watch puppet performances. [-]. Return to the puppet mansion and enjoy local delicacies."

It turns out that the players are members of a toy company and intend to cooperate with Puppet Town to create high-end puppet toys, so they came here to investigate.In order to show their importance, the puppet town arranges them to live in the puppet mansion, and let the housekeeper take care of their daily life.

This itinerary seems easy, players know very little about this dungeon, and it is hard to predict how the dungeon will trap them.

"The itinerary of this puppet hall is a bit weird. It's not scary to visit the puppets, but I'm afraid that these puppets will move. There is a puppet in my room, which is creepy." Fei'er glanced at Yun Xubai, shaking the paper in his hand : "In my impression, Xubai is very courageous. The puppets shouldn't scare you, right?"

Yun Xubai curled his lips into a smile: "If they dare to come, I dare to treat them for ADHD."
