Infinity through different life

Chapter 368 The whole world is crazy ([-]-in-[-])

A chat room created by Aiqi.

Wade, Dadong, and Ashiu were all present.

The four of them sat together, their faces full of solemn expressions, and the atmosphere seemed very dull.

Ultron disappeared.

The NPCs in the school have become the same again.

The chat room was closed, and those hunters who were cheated of money said that it was Ai Qi, Da Dong, and Ah Xiu who set up a trick, which made them suffer.

What's even more weird is that the quest information of Ultron that the four of them received was automatically deleted, and the gold coins and experience sources they got were directly transferred to the quests they had done before or the harvest from fighting monsters.

All of this was done without any trace, and finally, after some investigation by Oasis Company, they replied that the NPC of School No. 1873 had no problems.

As for Ultron, Oasis Company gave the answer that the identity is the player, and no one knows the specific information. After all, all personal information of the player is under protection.

"All of this is caused by Ultron."

Ai Qi clenched his fists and was very angry. After waiting for a week, he just waited for this result.

"It's too bad." Dadong said sullenly: "If Ultron's plot succeeds..."

"It won't succeed!" Wade said suddenly: "We can definitely stop it!"

"How to stop it?" Ah Xiu looked at Wade.

"Let's form a team. As long as we win the game, we can stop it." Wade looked around the crowd and added: "Although my level is still low, I will never hold you back."

The other three frowned and remained silent.

Anyway, the oasis is just a network. Although you know each other very well in the oasis, no one knows what kind of person the other party is in reality. For example, you see a beautiful woman in the oasis, but in reality the other party may be middle-aged Aunt, even a big guy who picks his feet.

The lone hunters all have their own pride, especially the famous three like Ai Qi. They are all confident that they can find the Easter eggs and get Halliday's inheritance by themselves.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Wade sighed helplessly and said, "Since you don't want to, then..."

"Wait!" Ai Qi suddenly said, "I have no objection."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Dadong and Axiu with a questioning look on his face.

"Okay." Dadong stretched out his hand, "I'll join."

"And me." Axiu also stretched out his hand.

Wade stretched out his hand, but looked at Ai Qi, wondering why the other party helped him.

"Look what I'm doing." Aichi avoided Wade's eyes strangely, "I just want to save the world."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to join the three of them.

Wade smiled and said: "Then we are in the same group, guys, listen to me, I don't care what you think, but if I get the easter egg in the end, I am willing to share it with you."

"Hmph!" Ai Qi disdainfully said, "You underestimate me too much, I can do it too."

"So are we." Dadong and Axiu laughed.

At this moment, the relationship between the four people suddenly became more harmonious than ever before, and they trusted each other even more.

"Okay." Wade also smiled, and then said solemnly: "In this case, I have a secret to tell you first..."

He lowered his voice, leaned closer and said, "I already know where the first key is."

"What?!" The other three were shocked, and then they all became excited, "Where is it?"

"Tomb of Terror." Wade announced the answer, and then slowly talked about the basis of his speculation.

…………

Planet Jigax.

Xu Jing came out from the teleportation room.

The time in the oasis is synchronized with reality, and five days have passed.

In the past five days, he has raised his level to level 60 by constantly hunting zombies and issuing tasks to himself. Although it is still far from the full level of level 99, the attributes and lives he has gained are enough to support him in finding easter eggs , if you count the soul that has been lifted from the restriction, even a level 99 player is vulnerable in front of him.

The planet Gygax is not that big, its volume is about a quarter of the real Earth, and the entire planet is composed of a continent, except for a few lakes, there is no ocean.

On this planet, the sky is always dark and lifeless.

After Xu Jing entered Ji Gaix, he automatically obtained the map of the entire planet, a three-dimensional sphere floating in front of him.

He moved the sphere with his hands, and there were many skull symbols on it, which represented individual Dungeons and Dragons modules.

He never thought of searching for these modules one by one, because it was of no use at all. Since the establishment of the oasis, all the modules displayed on the map have been turned over and over again by hunters. If If there was a tomb of horrors with a hidden key, it would have been discovered long ago.

"Where will it be?"

Xu Jing looked at places other than the display module, those forests, grasslands, wilderness and other places that separate each copy.

In addition, he had already prepared before coming here, and intercepted the rough illustration from the book where he found the Tomb of Horror. This illustration is in the shape of a hill.

He opened a purchased high-end oasis map recognition plug-in, then dragged the illustration of the Tomb of Horror into the picture, and searched for it to match the map of the entire planet Gygax.

A historic discovery is coming, Xu Jing is a little excited.

After waiting patiently for about ten minutes, the result finally came out.

"No? How could there be no?"

This result was completely beyond his expectations, as it did not match any similar terrain.

At this moment Xu Jing was stunned, his heart was empty, all the excitement disappeared in an instant, only disappointment remained.

"Is my guess wrong?"

He was a little dazed, but intuitively felt something was wrong.

Xu Jing looked at the search results again, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he understood what he had overlooked.

This planet is named after the father of "Dungeons and Dragons", and there are various Dungeons and Dragons modules, but including the known modules, there is no "Horror" designed by Gygax himself. Tomb of the

The whole Gygax doesn't have it, and that just shows the point.

Xu Jing reaffirmed his conjecture. The brass key is indeed in the Tomb of Terror, but the Tomb of Terror is hidden on another planet.

"Where will it be hidden?"

He had a headache. Before Halliday died, there were thousands of planets in the oasis, and Halliday might rebuild the Tomb of Terror on any of them.

If he wanted to search so many planets one by one, even if he had the energy, the cost of sitting in the teleportation array would be astronomical.

Xu Jing stood in the Teleportation Temple, thinking about the pros and cons.

At this moment, the door of a teleportation room not far from him opened, and a familiar player walked out.

"Parsifal? Isn't this Wade?"

The other party didn't change his appearance, so he recognized it at a glance, and then he was even more surprised that Ai Qi, Dadong and Axiu appeared from the teleportation room one after another.

Xu Jing's heart skipped a beat, realizing that he was not the only one who had the secret.

Maybe it's not just Wade and the others, there are billions of players in the Oasis, and there are more than just one or two smart ones. If there are other hunters who have analyzed the Tomb of Horrors, then all the smart people so far must be keeping the secret.

"Forget it, let's go out and complete mission 2, don't accidentally overturn the car."

Xu Jing made a decision and immediately logged into the biggest hunter forum and personal blog.

He had already been preparing for Mission 2. He had registered his account a month ago, and he had already become well-known in the hunter circle by continuously posting and speaking, publishing some articles with technical content and in-depth analysis of Halliday's culture.

"Revealed: The True Clue to the Brass Key."

He made a well-regulated title. In fact, as long as it is similar to the news about the clues of Easter eggs, it is the biggest topic in itself. , I believe that everyone who knows him will not miss it.

Xu Jing expressed the speculation process in detail, and finally came to a conclusion: "So I am sure that the brass key is in the "Tomb of Terror", but I can tell you clearly where this tomb is built, it is not in Gygax, maybe only Halliday knows it, but there is another way, do you want to get an easter egg? As long as each of you matches and searches the map of the current location, maybe soon, the Tomb of Terror will be found."

He then uploaded the illustration of the Tomb of Terror, and then directly uploaded the cracked version of the oasis map identification plug-in he purchased, and attached a tutorial on how to use it.

In less than half an hour, his blog was ranked number one in the world's most searched, and the posts on the forum were also topped. Whether it is a blog or a forum, the number of replies is almost at the rate of tens or hundreds of messages per second. growing.

Crazy, the whole world is crazy at this moment.

Countless messages requesting videos, calls, code words or emails flickered in front of Xu Jing's virtual screen that only he could see.

The downloads of the illustrations and plug-ins he released are increasing at a crazy speed. The free hunters in the oasis are taking action one after another, and the major hunter guilds and the Sixth Man are also ready to go. Warships and fighters begin to gather. The tomb means who can seize the opportunity.

The media frantically followed the news, major TV stations quickly switched programs, and all resources were concentrated on broadcasting clues about the brass key, which is Halliday’s legacy, more than 5000 billion US dollars, including the control of the entire oasis, who Tama also cares about programs such as entertainment TV.

Xu Jing didn't go anywhere, he blocked all communication information, just waited patiently in the Teleportation Temple, paying attention to the major websites and TV news.

In this case, there are definitely not only one or two people on each planet who search for the tomb of horror. Once they find something, they can't hide it at all, and it will soon spread to the extent that everyone in the world knows about it.

Sure enough, in just about 10 minutes, the Tomb of Terror was discovered. When he received the system notification that the task was completed, the media rushed to release the news.

"It's actually in Ludes?"

After Xu Jing saw the news, one can imagine the surprise in his heart.

Who would have thought that Halliday actually built the Tomb of Terror on a PVE planet, a planet with nothing but a school.

But if you think about it another way, this proves that Ludus is an extremely perfect treasure location, because no hunter will go there to find the brass key.

Why did Halliday choose Ludes?unless……

An answer suddenly flashed in Xu Jing's mind, unless Halliday hoped that the person who found the key would be a student.

But now was not the time to study this, he turned around and walked towards the teleportation room.

The most urgent and most important thing is to rush to Ludes, anyway, it is a PVE area, even if those big guilds or companies send space battleships, there is no way to hurt anyone.

The four who had the same idea as him were Wade who just came to Ji Gaix, more precisely, it should be the vast majority of people. Now in the entire oasis, anyone who has ideas about Halliday's legacy is desperately rushing to ludes.

And the students who went to school in Ludes rushed to the hiding place of the Tomb of Terror in a swarm.

The four of Wade are in extremely complicated moods at the moment. When they came here, they thought they had found a clue, and they were ambitious to get the key and climb up the standings. But before they could act, they found out that the secret they were keeping was known to the whole world. , and they looked for the wrong location.

"This idiot, wanting to be famous must be crazy. Such an important news has been announced to the whole world. It's really beeping the dog!"

Ai Qi cursed and exploded with anger.

Wade said with a helpless smile: "But this man called 'The Letter of the Pretender' is really famous, and now the whole world knows him."

Xu Jing was in the middle of the teleportation team. Hearing the excitement of the players around him, he felt secretly refreshed. His blog and forum account are indeed well-known, and now even world stars don't get as much attention as him.

"This is a great deal!"

With such high attention, he can earn a lot of Oasis Points even if he does some random things. If he is willing to attend the show and go on TV, the income will definitely be more. However, he is just an NPC and can't do anything about it, even if he is real. It is impossible for players to show up, otherwise all the details will be exposed.

Xu Jing guessed that there must be contacts from advertisers in the emails blocked by him at this moment, but it is important to rush to Ludes at this moment, and he plans to deal with it slowly later.

The line moved forward quickly, and soon it was his turn.

After entering the teleportation room, he chose Ludes familiarly, and after paying the fee, he disappeared instantly.

This time he teleported to Public School No. 571, because the found Tomb of Terror was on a small hill in the forest behind this school, and the entrance was buried in broken sandstone.

The students of the 571 public school may be the most annoyed group of people at this time. No one thought that the brass key is actually behind their school. For five years, no student has been bored to explore that forest.

As soon as Xu Jing walked out of the teleportation hall, he heard the deafening engine sound from above his head.

He looked up, and saw that the sky was covered with formations of fighter planes, which belonged to major guilds or companies, and were constantly circling at low altitudes, and above them were space battleships, covering the sky and the earth, covering the whole sky.
