Infinite Mask Game.

Chapter 261 Everyone Aware
The wanderer is working hard on unlocking the door.

A piece of wire in his hand jumped lightly in the keyhole a few times, and with a gentle push, the door opened inward.

After testing, we found that there is no door in a closed house that cannot be pried open.

To his surprise, the house was not fully furnished as he had imagined, but was so empty that rats could run through it.

The closed second floor seemed to hide the so-called owner of the house.

Before the door was pried open, the windows were tightly closed. After the door was pried open, the wooden windows automatically opened inwards, allowing people to climb over.

The job of the wanderer is to explore as much of the area as possible.

He plans to stay here and not leave.

In his opinion, prying open the door piecemeal would not be very effective and would be difficult to exploit.

Concentrating them in one area can expand the resources of the housing area several times. Its value lies in providing additional doors and windows for climbing over.

The wanderer did not close the door after unlocking it, making it easy for him to enter and exit.

Moreover, when the door was closed, it was impossible to tell from the outside whether the room was closed or not, and even he, the instigator, would be confused.

His unlocking speed was just as described in the skill, 30 seconds was just right. He didn't know the principle of unlocking, he just knew to insert the wire according to his feeling, twist it randomly, and the door lock would be unlocked under the action of mysterious force.

After working in a continuous stream, before receiving the [Detect Evil] prompt, he had already unlocked a small area of ​​houses, including the existing template houses, a total of more than a dozen buildings.

When the beam of light marking the Soul Hunter shot up into the sky, he simply looked up into the distance without stopping his hands.

After a day, the wanderer felt a little numb. He had persisted in the masquerade with the fresh feeling of being defeated by life, and his open-mindedness of giving up had never faded.

He didn't really care about winning or losing in this entertainment game. He just wanted to do what he was supposed to do.

About twenty minutes into the game, Wei Miao discovered another candy machine under the city wall in the southwest corner.

"Are there no travelers nearby?... The inventory has not changed."

Wei Miao examined the goods and read the instructions for the sweet candies.

Pain is a common experience, and it is not friendly. High-level players will find ways to overcome their reflexes to pain, which sometimes leads to deformation of operations and fatal mistakes.

The value of ignoring pain, then, is more than just not having to suffer.

But she had limited All Saints' Day candy on hand, with eight pieces in stock, and without knowing the remaining stock in the candy machine, she had no intention of purchasing any.

In addition, based on the locations of the first two candy machines, it can be inferred that the third candy machine is likely to be located in the southeast corner of the town, and the three are distributed in a triangle.

"Almost there, let's see if there are any lucky people nearby."

Wei Miao turned around and looked at the quiet city behind him, and finally used his overall awareness.

"All Perception" is a skill with a fixed cooldown, and it has one initial charge. In six hours, it can be activated 13 times in the most extreme case, but the first and last two charges are actually invalid.

The best situation is to use it 12 times. Activate it once within the first half hour of entering the game, and as early as possible, and use it as soon as possible after the cooldown is completed to reduce the preparation time, so that the last activation has more time to find the traveler and avoid it becoming ineffective.

The same principle applies to [Detecting Evil].

But it is also very important to be able to detect the other party's movements at the right time.

Therefore, Wei Miao kept "All Awareness" until now. Another reason was that she hoped to end the hunting game as soon as possible, so she didn't need to care about the effect of the last "All Awareness".

The candy machine has been found, it's time to find someone. The way to the third candy machine is across half of the town, so you can take a detour. "Universal Awareness" and [Detect Evil] can form a counterattack, but the problem is that the Soul Hunter cannot know what special skills the Traveler has obtained, and even does not know that they can know the status of others through the avatars on the panel.

However, asymmetric confrontation games are not uncommon and are also popular in virtual games. The basic structure of the system and gameplay can be predicted. Usually, players are randomly born somewhere on the map and cannot communicate or sense each other, but there is a simple window to know the status of teammates and make decisions.

Wei Miao cannot confirm whether the opponent has [Detect Evil].

The use of [Detect Evil] will not be detected by the Soul Hunter, which is a default item not written in the skill description. If it can be detected, the Soul Hunter can use this to mislead the direction of movement, which will waste half of its functionality.

Wei Miao assumed that the traveler had obtained [Detect Evil], either to confirm her location at the beginning or to respond to emergencies.

For example, if you sense her but cannot confirm her location, use it to save yourself.

Those who possess the skill will definitely use it to avoid danger in an emergency. If the person is gone, it is useless to keep the skill.

It can be seen that Guan Shanyue at least does not have [Detect Evil] in his hand, otherwise he would not fall into the trap.

If someone else holds it, it is highly likely that they have used it. When they used it is not really important.

As soon as "All Awareness" was activated, four scarlet beams of light shot up into the sky, exuding feather-like brilliance.

Wei Miao sensed four travelers scattered around.

"Three are in the southeast suburbs, and one is nearby."

Using the four intersecting main roads as boundaries, Wei Miao divided the Sabo town into four urban areas in his mind: northwest, southwest, northeast, and southeast, with the main road that he first took being due north.

She is now in the southwest corner.

As she walked along, she had a rough idea of ​​the town's layout. The town was bounded by a perfectly circular wall with a radius of about 800 meters, and each urban area occupied a large area.

Now that there is a range reference, plus the distance and direction information obtained by sensing, Wei Miao can accurately locate their location even without the light beam.

The skill showed that there was a traveler only about 200 meters away from her, and he was not moving.

The remaining three, by some unknown coincidence, gathered in the same city, but they were scattered and might not have met each other yet. Judging from the direction they were going, it was only a matter of time before they met.

Two are moving and one is not moving.

When the skill duration ends, Wei Miao has already rushed dozens of meters towards the nearest prey.

At the same time, Zixu was squatting in the corner of a template room, daydreaming.

His position was quite good. The streets in this housing area were crisscrossed, and in such a housing area, sometimes you could simply stand at the entrance of each street and look inside to see multiple streets.

However, this area of ​​houses has outer rows of separated buildings, which obscure many internal alleys.

Zixu chose a template house in a row of houses as his hiding place. The template house had windows on the front and back, and he hid in a corner, with his back pressed against one of the windows and facing the other window.

This means he only needs to be alert to the opposite window, and the Soul Hunter can only spot him from there. The [Secret Blind Spot] he carries is very suitable for hide-and-seek.

Without everyone noticing, the Soul Hunters would never be able to find him.

The action of squatting was not strictly judged, and sitting down was also considered squatting. Zixu did not have to worry about being unable to escape due to numbness in his legs if he was discovered. The window with his back to him was exactly the escape route he had planned.

He hugged his knees and waited quietly for time to pass. In another ten minutes, he would have to move the battlefield to prevent the Soul Hunters from suddenly discovering him and catching him in the trap.

However, the next moment, a look of surprise and doubt flashed across his face.

Perception triggered, the Soul Hunter is nearby!
