Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

Chapter 647 The true value of the Shorty Café!
"These blood gates don't appear in every copy..."

Chen Ye stroked his chin and muttered to himself.

Of course.

As you can imagine, the Blood Gate is very precious. If it appears everywhere, it will be troublesome!
In the previous copy of the Headless Bride, there was no such blood gate...

But obviously...

The copy where the Headless Bride is located is also a stronghold, specifically used to make money.

It seems that not all copy strongholds have such a blood gate.

Instead, such blood gates will only appear at key strategic points.

"Although the Aran Clothing Store doesn't look particularly high-end from the outside, it has two different types of doors!"

"The bloody gate, and the elevator door that connects to the underground world..."

"Such a key stronghold actually appeared near the main store of my Honesty Restaurant?"

"Isn't this a bit too coincidental?"

Chen Ye frowned and began to think about what happened to the "Aran Clothing Store" he had acquired before.

From a strategic location point of view, "Aran Clothing Store" is located in a more prosperous area of ​​West Street, but it is not the most central prosperous area. It is relatively close to the peripheral commercial area.

Generally at this time, the traffic there is not too low, and it is close to the exit of West Street.

I remember that not far from the exit of West Street, after walking a short distance, you can see Longhua Avenue.

Going down, you will reach the alleys of Xining.

Chen Ye's eyes narrowed involuntarily: "This strategic point is an important location for connecting West Street with the City of Destiny outside."

"But isn't it a bit too coincidental that it's opened right next to my Honesty Restaurant?"

"Is it intentional? Or accidentally?"

If it was intentional, then Chen Ye would have to consider whether he was at risk of being exposed.

after all……

As such a large organization, there is no reason to target a restaurant business player, even if this player is indeed very big.

Could it be that some players have already begun to suspect that the owner of this "Honest Restaurant" is the legendary top boss?

really……

Such speculation may not be impossible to find overlapping points.

Now everyone in the forum of Weird Era knows that the top player on the list is a very mysterious player.

Up to now, not many players have been able to dig out relevant information about this top player.

But the owner of this "Integrity Restaurant" is also very mysterious.

Even though the nearby intelligence agencies spent a lot of effort searching for related intelligence, they were unable to gain any special results.

But think about it from another perspective...

The mysterious boss of the Honesty Restaurant and the mysterious boss of the No. 1 list have one thing in common—

That's all very mysterious!
In this case, isn't there a correlation between the two?
After all, at this point in the Weird Era, the only strongholds that could make the big guilds spend money to conduct reconnaissance and still fail to obtain any important gains were the "Integrity Restaurant" and the mysterious boss on the list.

If you think about it this way, it is not difficult to understand why the "Integrity Restaurant" would be targeted.

Chen Ye's eyes narrowed:
"Now, one thing is certain, there must be some organization among the player community that wants to control all the players!"

"And this organization may be backed by very powerful indigenous forces, and may even be related to authority..."

"It attempts to stir up the entire God War and spread the pollution in, destroying the players' ecological environment..."

"But what is the purpose of this organization doing this?"

"Which player has such great ability to guide this organization to carry out the next activity?"

All these factors made Chen Ye suddenly realize that these things were not as simple as he had imagined.

There must be an invisible giant hand behind this city, which has covered it to an unimaginable extent.

but……

Where exactly this giant hand came from, and what purpose it has, is still unknown...

as well as……

What puzzled Chen Ye the most was...

What benefits will doing these things bring to the person behind the scenes?

According to the known information, since they can have such deep and close cooperation with the players, it is unlikely that they are just indigenous people cooperating with the players.

If they were just indigenous people, even if they had reached a status like "authority", they would rarely arrange things for the players in this way.

After all, the weight given is too high.

It seems more like a person who has been planning for a long time behind the scenes...

but.

What kind of person is behind this to be able to control the situation to such an extent?

If it is among the group of players, it seems difficult for such a character to appear?

Chen Ye frowned. He instinctively sensed a sense of incongruity in these events.

Moreover, even for individual players, what benefits can they gain by carrying out these plans so deeply?
at present……

What we can know is...

The person behind this wants to wipe out the group of players!
Judging from his plan, these plans are not intended to destroy this copy, or this world, as if they want to destroy the group of players.

If individual players were to do these things, that wouldn't be right, right?

After all, he is also a player. What good will it be for him to destroy the environment suitable for players to survive?
"There may be more complicated reasons..."

Chen Ye shook his head and stopped thinking. The logical chain had been broken here. It would be useless to continue thinking. It would be better to empty his mind and use the remaining energy to solve the problem at hand.

At this moment, the more important thing for Chen Ye is naturally to explore this short-legged coffee shop.

"Since this bloody gate exists in the Short-legged Cafe, it becomes even more important to capture this place."

Chen Ye stared at the bloody gate and said secretly in his heart.

He had a premonition...

Something extremely bad is brewing behind the Blood Gate.

Moreover, there will probably be more and more things like this in the near future!
therefore……

For Chen Ye, controlling more real estate like this would definitely be of greater benefit to him.

On the one hand, after having access to the Blood Gate, Chen Ye can take the initiative to explore the Blood Gate;
On the other hand, by disrupting the enemy's plan, it will be impossible for the opponent's means to be implemented too smoothly. In this way, it is equivalent to weakening the enemy and strengthening one's own side.

The more times like this come, the more we need to take the initiative.

Waiting for death?

This is certainly not Chen Ye's style. "Let's go to the second floor and take a look."

Chen Ye looked down at the bunch of blood-red keys in his hand and muttered to himself.

At this moment, there are still two blood-colored keys, which naturally correspond to the second and third floors respectively.

As the doll continued to hum "Lullaby"...

All the employees in the Shorty Café fell into a state of unconsciousness.

Therefore, this moment can be said to be the most favorable time for Chen Ye to take action.

This dangerous dungeon area is now like Chen Ye’s back garden, where people can wander around at will.

I followed the staff stairs next to it and headed towards the dim corridor-style stairs all the way up to the second floor.

The staff area on the second floor is separated by a very thick bronze door.

The door handle of the bronze gate was inlaid with two green-faced masks of the undead evil spirits.

When these two green-faced evil ghosts saw Chen Ye coming here, they stuck out their tongues and roared.

But as the doll behind Chen Ye hummed "Requiem"...

The green-faced evil ghost immediately retracted his tongue, rolled his eyes, and became obedient.

No more trouble for Chen Ye.

"It's really useful... the characteristics of the sixth job!"

Chen Ye couldn't help but sigh in his heart. With his spirituality, he could achieve the same effect by playing the suona.

But this is in someone else's copy area after all...

Chen Ye's method is still relatively strong and belongs to spiritual suppression, but such a method may trigger the protection system of the Short-legged Coffee Shop, automatically identifying himself as an intruder.

However, as a cafe, it can serve customers normally.

As a guest, it is not a problem for the doll to enter this low-rise coffee shop, hum a song, and help the employees here to have a better sense of sleep.

A gentler method like this would not be recognized by the copy's defense mechanism.

Therefore, the road we have traveled along can be described as smooth and unobstructed.

There were almost no major obstacles.

"There must be something important here..."

Chen Ye secretly said in his heart.

On the first floor, even near the Blood Gate, there were no such [Undead] guarding it.

However, after reaching the second floor, these green-faced evil ghosts were clearly at a higher level of mental resistance than the guests below.

and……

Whenever a guest who detects an unusual smell arrives at this place, a warning will be issued!
If you continue to get closer, the evil ghost's "clearing intruders" mechanism will be triggered.

However, the doll is still one step ahead. The "Requiem" it hums is enough to make the green-faced evil ghost of this level fall into a state of confusion.

The mechanism of Requiem is different from that of Lullaby, and it can soothe all hostility.

Compared to targeting the level of self-awareness, targeting hostility is more direct...

Of course.

The scope of effect is also relatively limited.

If it is a fully conscious being, even if its hostility is suppressed, it can still perceive that the doll is an abnormal guest.

However, the mechanism of the Green-faced Evil Ghost is more primitive. It uses smell to identify the enemy, then generates hostility, and finally triggers the defense mechanism of the entire copy.

But... the mechanism of Requiem can just pacify the hostility, which means that when the green-faced evil ghost with a relatively weak self-awareness is unable to generate hostility towards Chen Ye and the doll, the guardian mechanism of the copy will naturally become ineffective.

Two different songs are used to protect the strategy of this copy. I have to say, they are really useful!
now……

With the help of these two songs, the control effect on the dungeon monsters...

Chen Ye easily passed through the obstruction of the green-faced evil ghost and came behind the second door.

Of course, this door no longer looks like a bloody door, but a door of nothingness wrapped in [concealment]!

In fact...

If Chen Ye didn't possess the Eye of Luck, he wouldn't be able to see any door here at all, and would only see nothingness here.

However, Chen Ye's Eye of Luck has already outlined the true appearance of this area.

That's right!

That's a door!

Moreover, behind the door that this door leads to, there is a glazed halo, waiting for Chen Ye.

"I think there are the job-changing items I need in here!"

Chen Ye secretly said in his heart.

He could see a thick line of glass connecting with his luck aura.

From this aura of luck, it is not difficult to see that the things inside should be very helpful for one's job change.

now……

Chen Ye took out the remaining two bloody keys from his pocket.

Through the perspective of the Eye of Luck, one can see that the key on the left has a dark yellow halo of luck wrapped around it, which seems to have turned into a long bridge, connecting to the door of nothingness in front of it.

Chen Ye took out the second key, which happened to be the key to the second floor.

When he took the key and approached the nothingness before him...

At this moment.

This nothingness suddenly turned into mist and slowly dissipated.

The ancient and rusty gate before your eyes seems to lead to an ancient and mysterious country.

"Such a strong [Hidden] atmosphere!"

Chen Ye frowned slightly. He sensed that there was a very powerful [hidden] aura waiting for him inside.

This is Chen Ye’s current spiritual status. After it is elevated to a certain level, it can bring about the “special spiritual perception”!
This kind of "spiritual perception" can still extract relevant information from the ocean of subconsciousness through powerful "spiritual perception" even when encountering temporarily unknown objects, because the level of personality is there.

With the help of this ability, combined with his exclusive talent [Blood Letter Research], Chen Ye can make a large number of analyses on unfamiliar things in a short time.

Under the effect of [Blood Letter Research], Chen Ye also discovered that behind this door was an intelligence hall protected by [Hidden]!
This intelligence hall contains a large amount of valuable information, and even precious special items and props.

Moreover, in addition to this, this intelligence hall also stores a wealth of knowledge, which can be called a treasure trove!
"No wonder there is such a strong atmosphere of [Hidden] here..."

"It seems..."

"The value of what is hidden here is simply inestimable!"

Chen Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, and he realized that this hidden room on the second floor must contain a lot of what he wanted to find!

This is the true value of the Short-legged Coffee Shop!
