Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 196 Alice Hell (29) - Nothing like this

  【Acquired information "Personal Mask Throat Slitter", can peel off sacrifice "6"】

【Statistics are…】

 【Intact Sacrifice "Forbidden Chair", "Broken Throat", "Quad"】

[The damaged sacrifices "Wither Reagent", "Smiling Angel", "Death Split" (the damaged sacrifices are in the current deduction, and the previous holder has used them until they expire. In this case, the stripped sacrifices cannot be used. Will be recycled by the system)]

[You have obtained the sacrifices "Forbidden Chair", "Broken Throat", and "Quand". It is detected that you have obtained four sacrifices. The remaining sacrifice qualifications are "2". You need to discard one of these three sacrifices. pieces]

 【Select "Forbidden Chair", you need to pay 4000 points】

 【Choose "Broken Throat", you need to pay 1200 points】

 【Choose "quagmire", you need to pay 1400 points】

  【Tip: The current sacrifice has not yet been integrated with the "Personal Mask", and its ability has not yet been determined. Deducers are advised to choose carefully】

"Huh? Is this how the sacrifice was peeled off?" It was the first time that Yu Xing touched the fragment of the mask wearing the sacrifice, and a series of system prompts made a glimmer of understanding appear in his eyes.

On Han Xinyi’s mask fragment, the sacrifice column is full, that is, six.

Originally, he thought that this way of inheriting sacrifices was too unbalanced. If a deducer with 0 sacrifices happened to pick up a mask fragment with 6 sacrifices, wouldn't it just take off? Or, if a person who already has six sacrifices receives six more, wouldn't the number of sacrifices reach an astonishing twelve?

You know, in a life-and-death deduction, there is only a certain chance of obtaining a sacrifice. If the sacrifice is so easy to inherit, obviously the benefits of killing the deduction are far greater than performing the deduction, and there will be people who concentrate on playing the deduction game. ?

Now, the system’s prompts let Yu Xing know that he should not treat the system as a stupid dog.

There are three restrictions on stripping off sacrifices and inheriting sacrifices. The first one comes from external threats. It can be said that the more dangerous the deduction game is, the more sacrifices the original holder will temporarily scrap. The sacrifices can be inherited by others after death. The less.

The second level comes from the strength of other deducers. As we all know, the more sacrifices you carry, the greater your chance of survival. In this case, people who bring many sacrifices themselves will have unlimited benefits when inheriting other people's mask fragments. decrease. For example, a person who owns five sacrifices can inherit at most one sacrifice from others. He may not be able to choose the one that suits him best based on the current abilities of these sacrifices - because the abilities will change after being fused with his own mask.

 The third level comes from the system and also from the choices of other deducers. After all...even if you can choose the inheritance sacrifice, you still need points! Rather than giving sacrifices directly, it is better to say that the system gave the deducers a "limited time purchase" opportunity in the form of mask fragments.

You must know that many deducers cannot save many points at all. They have either exchanged them for sacrifices in the free trading market long ago, or used them to strengthen their physical fitness. The most they can save is about two thousand.

Yu Xing glanced at the three sacrifices that could be chosen. The "broken throat" should be Han Xinyi's knife, and the "quagmire" was probably the black mist she used to attack Yu Jiaming and defend Yu Xing's dagger. Both of these are more than 1,000 points. The total of 2,500 points is the number of points that can be earned by about three S-level evaluation deductions. Viewed separately, it is within the level that a normal deduction can afford after accumulating for a period of time.

 As for the "Forbidden Chair", the system actually offered a price of 4,000 points. This was a price that most ordinary players could not afford, and they clearly wanted to recycle it.

“Is it because of the three words regularity?” Yu Xing pondered for a moment.

"Well..." Yiqing stood behind Yu Xing, opened the fan and covered half of his face, leaving only a pair of dark blue eyes staring at Yu Xing's figure who seemed to be thinking about something.

 He also received the exact same prompt given to Yu Xing, so he naturally guessed what Yu Xing was thinking.

 As a ghost in the sacrifice, he originally did not have such great authority, but he was no match for the absurd deduction system that asked him to monitor this weird deducer.

 Not only could he see the prompts Yu Xing received, but there were even a few more.

　　【It is detected that the player's points are enough to pay for the "Forbidden Chair", please guide him to give up the sacrifice so that the system can recover the regular sacrifices】

 When this prompt appeared, Yiqing's reply in his heart was: "I don't."

 【According to predictions, this person is not suitable for contact rules】

"What are you afraid of him finding out?" Yiqing curled his lips and said more like a chat with him than a prompt, "I don't have this in my mission, don't expect me to do this."

 【Please take pictures of Qinggui Yiqing and focus on the overall situation】

"What's the big picture, it's not interesting." Yi Qing's elegance could not hide the willfulness in his bones, "I just want to see interesting things."

The system feels like it's getting angry again.

It had just failed to communicate with Yiqing when it saw that Yu Xing had decisively chosen the [Forbidden Chair].

system:…

Yu Xing’s points have not been used at all and have been saved. Currently, there are 5502 points left, which is enough to buy the Forbidden Chair and then choose another one. His expression at this moment was surprisingly similar to that of Yi Qingmi, who was hiding his face. I don't know what he thought of, but the corner of his lips raised a curve: "I want this one, and give up on the other two."

　　【Are you sure? "Forbidden Chair" points are expensive, and its reintegration ability is unknown, so players should choose carefully]

 “Extremely cautious, confirm.” Yu Xing’s eyes were full of amusement. He guessed right. The system seemed to be deliberately preventing him from getting the Forbidden Chair.

Then he really needs to see what makes the system afraid.

Hmm... as a line of alienation, the angry death system should be normal, right?

 【You have obtained the sacrifice "Forbidden Chair", lost 4000 points, and have 1502 remaining points】

 After two seconds, the system gave feedback as if everything was normal.

 【This sacrifice will be fused with your persona after the end of this game】

At this time, Yu Xing felt that he could move normally.

Although his body has not fully grown yet, it is covered by clothes. As long as others don't touch him, they won't notice anything abnormal.

"It's time to go." He didn't look at Han Xinyi's body again, picked up his own smiling mask that fell on the ground, pushed open the door of the sculpture classroom, opened the corridor door, and returned to the scene with the slight sound of steam. We arrived at a messy open-air sculpture exhibition hall.

The fog that shrouded the venue had dissipated, and the countdown had disappeared. Yu Xing was stunned, and suddenly remembered that he had not received the notification that the side mission was over.

 There was a reminder when he died. Did he miss it?

That's not right, he was still within the mission time limit after his resurrection, otherwise he would directly attract the zombie researcher if he killed Han Xinyi.

Yu Xing took a look and found that there was indeed no reminder record of the end of the side mission, only the word (completed) appeared on the time-limited mission.

He murmured: "The time-limited mission is over, but the side mission is still going on?"

 In other words, the side mission he received is actually a long-term mission?

"Jingle Bell…"

Suddenly, a crisp ringing sound appeared above Yu Xing. His pupils shrank and he immediately put on the mask before looking upward.

The sound was coming from the fourth floor, opposite the bedrooms on the third floor where the deducers lived, and on the other side of the building separated by the sculpture exhibition hall. There were only railings and corridors on the fourth floor within sight.

 A figure poked its head out from behind the railing, and the bells sounded more cheerfully. Alice, with scarlet eyes, looked at the young man standing in the ruins of the sculpture, wearing a mask and covered in blood.

 “Ha…” She opened her mouth and uttered an excited syllable.

 In her mouth, the jagged teeth stood bleeding. Her hand rested on the railing. You could see that a small golden bell that had not appeared before dinner was hung on her wrist.

 She didn’t recognize Yu Xing’s identity, but she was now in the monster camp and looked the same to everyone she saw!

At the moment, under Yu Xing's surprised gaze, she climbed over the railing like a gecko, her limbs clinging to the wall, and she actually climbed down in a posture that could be called a ghost.

"Shall I go?" Yu Xing really didn't expect this. He thought that Alice, a ghost who cares about appearance, would wear her Lolita dress and leisurely use her familiarity with the castle to pursue her. Deducer.

Who would have thought that she used the same method of going downstairs as Yu Xing to a certain extent——

 Climb directly from the outer wall!

　　The gorgeous dress showed a burnt appearance from the waist down, and was in tatters. Even Alice's exposed legs were covered with scorch marks and ugly scabs.

At this moment, she really looked like an evil ghost who had just crawled out of the fire of hell.

Yu Xing turned around and ran to where Han Xinyi came from. That was another door of the open-air exhibition hall. Now it seemed that there was only one way to leave the sculpture hall.

 He doesn’t need to worry about where the road leads, as long as there is room to run, he can always find where he wants to go.

The bell was ringing crazily and non-stop. Yu Xing did not waste time to look up, but he could hear that Alice was climbing very fast and was approaching him at an alarming speed.

Yi Qing followed Yu Xing invisibly. Yu Xing ducked sideways into the thick, unclosed door, and slowly closed the door with a strong force.

 “Peng!”

There was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground outside the door, and immediately after, Alice's gorgeous face squeezed into the crack of the door.

"Ha..." She stared with scarlet eyes, her excitement undisguised, and stretched out an arm to catch Yu Xing who was closing the door.

Yu Xing sneered under his mask, nimbly dodged Alice's hand, raised his leg and kicked Alice in the face.

"Ah!" Alice didn't expect how much strength would come from this "tourist", and she fell backwards unprepared.

Yu Xing took the opportunity to close the door completely. When he saw a lock on the door, he took advantage of the situation and dropped the lock.

He also muttered: "Well, I kind of understand how Zhao Yijius likes to kick in the door. It feels quite good to kick in the real thing..."

There were several knocks on the door, and the ringing of the bell gave me a headache.

Yu Xing walked into the rooms on both sides of the corridor where he was. As expected, these rooms were already occupied.

His task of occupying two rooms is still short. In the space on the other side, the toilet is not included in the room, and the second sculpture classroom was occupied by Han Xinyi first.

But...it's not important anymore.

He came out of the room, and the banging on the door had disappeared. Presumably, Alice realized that it was difficult to get here and found another route to block him.

"Humph... If you take the other route, you might not be the one you meet first." Yu Xing was not worried about this. He followed the wall lamps on both sides and walked to the place he had not walked before.

“Yiqing, do you know the way to the fourth floor?”

Yiqing's brows were dull and he said with a smile: "I already know the way around the library, but I have never been to the place you are walking now, so naturally I don't know."

“Oh.” Yu Xing squinted his eyes sadly, it seemed that he could only look for it through this road.

The wall lamps flicker with dim light. The further you go, the more retro the style of the wall lamps becomes, gradually deviating from the steampunk style.

 At the end of the corridor, there is only one staircase going up.

Yu Xing went up the stairs to the second floor and found that there were many forked roads. He stood silently at the intersection and looked to the far left.

Based on his remaining sense of direction and the three-dimensional map formed in his mind so far, he speculated that the leftmost angle was more likely to lead to a route he was familiar with.

Since there was no exact map anyway, Yu Xing followed his intuition and stepped forward.

Yiqing is restless. When other people are around, he can be as quiet as if he doesn't exist. Even Yu Xing often forgets about him. But once Yu Xing was the only one left, the green-shooting ghost became talkative.

 He stepped on the ground: "Luckily."

“Huh?” Yu Xing was trying to figure out the direction and responded perfunctorily.

Yiqing straightened his long black hair like a wolf's hair: "You just said that the goal has been achieved, what about Han Zhiyong?"

This guy is also one of the accomplices in the throat-cutting case and a member of Single Prism. He has also done a lot of harmful things.

 He did not believe that Yu Xing would let Han Zhiyong go.

 But Yu Xing really has no intention of killing Han Zhiyong in this deduction: "I still need him."

"Oh?" Yiqing's dark green eyes dimmed a little, and then he thought of something, "You want to find Han Yan through him?"

"That's right." Yu Xing chuckled, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, "Whether Han Yan has not been in contact with Han Xinyi for so many years, we cannot verify it for the time being. Whether it is true or not, we cannot verify it yet. So, Han Zhiyong As the person appointed by Han Yan to be Han Xinyi’s guardian, he must know more about Han Yan.”

"Now there are uninvited guests like me and Xiao Ququ in Fuhua City. Han Zhiyong can't handle it on his own. He will definitely report it to someone who can handle it. No matter who it is, it will help me - you seem to know a lot about me?" Halfway through Yu Xing's words, the conversation suddenly changed and he looked towards Yi Qing.

Although Yiqing followed him through his promotion process,...

 He has not completely told Yi Qing about his grudge against Single Prism. In daily life, he is only investigating the throat-slitting case.

Yiqing's reaction was actually not inappropriate, but his tone sounded like he answered naturally after knowing a lot.

Yiqing covered the lower half of his face with a fan: "It's nothing like that."
