Chapter 35: The Hongmen Banquet (Please read on!!!)

At 5:30 in the afternoon, the scorching sun showed no sign of abating and continued to bake the earth, mercilessly shedding its scorching sunlight.

The air was filled with stuffiness and heat, as if one was in a huge steamer.

"It's already so hot at the end of May. It will be so hot when summer comes..."

Zhou Yuan rode the shared bicycle listlessly and slowly towards the funeral home.

At this time, he was sweating profusely and panting heavily, showing no signs of exceeding any human limits.

Because Zhou Yuan knew that this memorial service must be a trap, he sold a talisman and used 100 star coins to buy an item called [One-time Attribute Camouflage Scroll].

After using this item, you can adjust your own attributes at will and feedback the adjustment results to your body.

Zhou Yuan adjusted all his attributes to the state when he just obtained the player system, disguising himself as an ordinary person to avoid being detected as abnormal.

After all, his charm of 11 points is too conspicuous. Even if he makes himself look ugly with makeup, he cannot hide the friendly field he exudes invisibly. His colleagues can tell at a glance that he is different from before.

It is worth noting that this camouflage adjustment can only go downward, not upward, and has a minimum limit, so the attribute value cannot be adjusted to 0.

According to the game settings of "Children of the Stars", if the intelligence attribute becomes 0, the character controlled by the player will become a mentally retarded friend who cannot understand the player's operations - if the player wants to move forward, the character will roll on the spot; if the player wants to open the backpack, the character will take off his pants and run naked...

Then a painful thing happened. The player realized that something was wrong and wanted to remove the attribute disguise, but because the character's intelligence was 0, it could not complete the player's instructions and would keep acting crazy and do all kinds of incredible things.

Without external intervention, this account will be ruined and will never return to normal.

Therefore, in order to prevent players from being bored and reducing the character's attributes to 0 points when using the [One-time Attribute Disguise Scroll], causing abnormal situations, the designer has made such a restriction.

It is also worth mentioning that the character's attribute value in the game will affect the gaming experience - high charm can persuade the enemy to surrender without bloodshed, high perception can detect danger in advance, high strength can threaten with force, and high stubbornness can make you reckless all the way...

With such rich game content, coupled with a vast world view and unprecedented holographic immersive technology, "Children of the Stars" is undoubtedly a feast for gamers.

When he thought of this, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but feel sad and sympathetic for players around the world.

Players waited year after year with great anticipation, until the flowers withered, and finally the game was about to be released. As a result, a sudden accident occurred in the Stellar network, and "Children of the Stars" was significantly delayed.

It's like a volcano that has been suppressed for a long time. When it is finally about to erupt, it is suddenly pinched by a big hand and prevented from erupting. Who wouldn't feel uncomfortable?

Oh, I'm not upset.

Zhou Yuan was also looking forward to "Children of the Stars", but now... there is nothing to worry about.

After all, he played it for real.

·
After some time, Zhou Yuan finally arrived at the funeral home.

He had to attend this memorial service, even if he knew there were traps. If he didn't come, wouldn't that be putting himself in a suspicious direction?

"Xiao Zhou!"

The security team leader, Brother Sun, was standing by the trash can at the door smoking with a group of security guards. He greeted him when he saw him.

"Brother Sun."

Zhou Yuan responded, parked the shared bike and walked over.

[I am a security guard and I get off work at 6 o'clock every day. I work to get off work, and my salary is only enough for breakfast. I love to eat bear biscuits and like the owner Xiaodan. The owner called me a cerebral palsy and a fool who guards the gate. Beauty has nothing to do with me, and butterflies dare not approach me.

To be honest, he has taken too much care of you in the past few years. I can only tell you quietly that he is coveting your beauty. 】

Zhou Yuan’s anus suddenly tightened, damn!

Sun Chuan did take good care of him at work, and he thought it was because he was related to him and Sun Chuan didn't want to offend him, but now looking at it this way...

At this time, Sun Chuan glared at him and asked, "Have you found a new job?"

"Not yet. I plan to take a break for a while." Zhou Yuan remained calm. Anyway, they would never see each other again, so just pretend everything was normal.

"That's right. After all, you almost died in the fire."

Zhou Yuan happened to be on duty that night, and the other security guards were in the security room, so they were lucky enough to escape. "I am lucky too." Zhou Yuan looked frightened.

"Okay, let's go in." Sun Chuan put out his cigarette and walked into the funeral home.

Farewell Hall.

Zhou Yuan was stunned: "So many people?"

This farewell hall was built to the highest standards and had an extremely spacious space, but it seemed crowded at this moment because there were already more than two hundred people attending the memorial service, and more were still arriving.

"Most of them are families of the victims," ​​said Sun Chuan.

With so many people, it's easy for some people with ulterior motives to sneak in... Zhou Yuan glanced around, his identification eye almost exploded, and prompts popped up crazily.

Soon, Zhou Yuan's heart moved, as expected!

[This is a programmer. You may have some impression of him. After all, you are the god in charge of express delivery in Qunxing Network. Every employee has come to you to pick up express delivery. His real identity is Shisecaihong's undercover agent lurking in Qunxing Network.]

[Another programmer, another undercover. His abilities are the same as yours, both are shadow-type, and he comes from the Land of Truth.]

[You seem to be very sensitive to the word "crow". Coincidentally, this beautiful lady is the secret agent planted by the Holy Crow Cult this time. By the way, she likes to sleep naked.]

Why is your eye for identification so dishonest?
Although Zhou Yuan thought so, he still glanced at her twice. Hmm, she looks good... This woman is a stranger. She is not an employee of Qunxing Network. She is obviously a sneak in.

After a closer count, there were quite a few extraordinary people who had sneaked in, at least more than twenty people. Most of them came from visible forces, and only a few came from the shameful and evil terrorist organization like the Land of Truth.

These people must have their own methods, otherwise they would never dare to enter this dangerous place.

"The people who organized this memorial service must have ulterior motives. They probably want to see if the player system is on us survivors. The major forces are probably targeting this, so the Control Bureau must have arranged some personnel, and they might even want to take this opportunity to arrest someone...

It's totally like the Hongmen Banquet."

Zhou Yuan’s thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he heard the system prompt sound.

[An event has been detected, and tasks are being generated...]

[Task name: "Hongmen Banquet"]

[Mission objective: Ensure that your secrets are not discovered]

[Task Reward 1: Experience Points*200]

[Task Reward 2: Star Coins*500]

Look, even the system says this is the Hongmen Banquet.

The reward is so small, which means it is not difficult... Zhou Yuan felt a little relieved and continued to observe. Suddenly, he saw an interesting prompt.

[I smell a familiar smell of bad luck... Yes, our unlucky friend is here. ]

Jiang Wuming?
Zhou Yuan looked at the man. His body shape was very similar to Jiang Wuming, but his face was different. He was probably disguised.

"Hmm... Calculating the time, it's time for Mobile Task Force Alpha to return to Dongzhou. I didn't expect them to be in Xinhu. What a coincidence..."

Zhou Yuan's worries disappeared in an instant.

Jiang Wuming is here, and Chen Guangxi must be not far away. Although the golden dragon is a bit abstract, its strength is unquestionable.

Zhou Yuan quickly made up his mind:
“I don’t know what methods they will use to investigate. If they really find out, I will surrender to the Control Bureau. With the relationship with Task Force Alpha, at least I can be guaranteed not to die.

If it hadn’t been detected, I would have continued to grow.”

As time went by, more and more people arrived and the farewell hall became more crowded.

The families of the victims cried bitterly in front of the portraits. Sadness filled the air, making the atmosphere gradually become heavy and depressing.

Not long after, the memorial service began.
