Day of Imprisonment

#108 - Of course, the next challenge

Luo Xi and the others were currently in the process of clearing the instance and settling the rewards.

Most were organizing their cards or drawing new ones, each with a smile on their face, as no Reminiscence Gatherer disliked receiving rewards.

Without a doubt, Luo Xi was the biggest winner of this clearance, as he would receive the numbered card.

“So, after clearing the ten-person difficulty Haunted House Escape, in addition to a 50% increase in the basic [Memory] card rewards, you also get one draw chance. Everyone who survived gets this. Finally, there's the numbered card, which actually also needs to be drawn.”

The fox doll wearing a dress spoke with a low tone but was very serious in her introduction.

“However, the numbered card can only be drawn by one person. So, who will it be?”

Everyone looked at Luo Xi.

“Understood.” The fox doll then took out a card and activated it, instantly turning into a wisp of white smoke that enveloped Luo Xi.

At the same time, Luo Xi also saw the familiar virtual screen for drawing cards.

First was the normal draw chance, which Luo Xi was already very familiar with, so he drew directly.

He obtained a card called [Seeing Ghosts].

The description read: This card can be used in 'Yin-Yang' attribute scenarios. After use, it guarantees that the user will see a ghost! As for what kind of ghost, it all depends on your luck!

At first glance, it might seem like a meaningless card.

Who would be idle enough to go looking for ghosts?

Wouldn't that be deliberately causing trouble for oneself?

But with a little thought, one would realize that the scenarios in the Day of Imprisonment always had many unexpected mechanisms. This kind of card that actively seeks out ghosts would definitely be useful in certain situations. For example, if a scenario's rules stipulated that a ghost would definitely attack you, but the ghosts in House A and House B had different levels of danger, normally, Reminiscence Gatherers would have no way to choose.

It would depend on luck.

But with this [Seeing Ghosts] card, one could summon a specific ghost in a specific area. Thinking about it this way, the card's usefulness was very significant.

Of course, the usage scenarios were not limited to these.

It was certain that all the cards in the Day of Imprisonment had a lot of potential to be discovered.

And next was the drawing of the numbered card.

Because the numbered card was unique, even Luo Xi was slightly nervous at this moment.

He certainly hoped to draw a card that he needed and was inherently valuable.

The phantoms in front of him changed rapidly. Luo Xi reached out and grabbed a card.

Once the light on the card in his hand faded, he could see it clearly.

Number 044 [Nightmare]: When you hold it, you must face it. It is another form of fear. It is like an inescapable shadow that will haunt you at all times. Also, one more question, how long has it been since you last dreamed?

If one only looked at the description of this card, they would definitely think it was a curse-like card.

Moreover, not cursing others, but cursing oneself.

However, when Luo Xi saw this card, he didn't consider cursing anyone. Instead, he looked at the last sentence in the card's description.

Then he realized that he didn't seem to have dreamed the last time he slept.

It didn't seem like it was that long ago.

But if this question was brought into the Day of Imprisonment, then the meaning it represented would be completely different.

All memories about dreams were from outside the Day of Imprisonment, that is, a few days ago, or some time ago.

In other words, dreams did not exist in the Day of Imprisonment.

But this numbered card, [Nightmare], implied that holding it would cause you to dream.

However, it was a nightmare.

But a nightmare was still a dream.

Luo Xi believed that dreams in the Day of Imprisonment must have a very special significance.

Otherwise, [Nightmare] would not have become a numbered-level card.

“Now that I hold this card, when will the nightmare come?”

Luo Xi muttered to himself.

Obviously, no one could answer him.

The card drawing was now over.

Luo Xi recalled clearing the 'Haunted House Escape' earlier. It could be said that the final stage was unexpectedly smooth.

Through Wu Rui's introduction, he successfully helped the young lady deliver the stillborn child in her womb.

Of course, in order to gain the young lady's favor, Luo Xi used some 'extraordinary' means. He once again used two [Memory] cards to synthesize the [Lie] card through his card book and used it.

After that, Luo Xi told a lie.

That was to tell the young lady that her child was sleeping.

Death and sleep were completely different things. If not through [Lie], it would almost immediately be exposed.

With the power of lies, the young lady successfully believed Luo Xi's words, and she was very satisfied. The family of three lived happily together. How could she not be satisfied?

Therefore, she opened the 'Red Door' to clear the instance.

That was a hidden door outside.

It was like suddenly appearing in the yard, or like this door painted with red lacquer had always existed, but it just couldn't be seen before.

The benefits obtained from the 'Haunted House Escape' scenario clearly exceeded Luo Xi's expenditure: three [Memory] cards, one [Seeing Ghosts], and one numbered 044 [Nightmare]. And Luo Xi only spent two [Memory] cards to synthesize [Lie], plus three [Memory] cards to purchase the pass.

It was obviously a profit.

Because the pass allowed him to continue playing in the game house.

Looking at the time, there were only a few minutes left until twelve o'clock.

“It's a pity, I can't use [Lie] after twelve o'clock.” Luo Xi muttered, but this didn't prevent him from continuing to challenge other scenario projects in Dou Dou Game House.

“What's your name?” At the entrance of the Haunted House Escape, the ancient-dressed fox lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking. At this time, she heard a voice, looked up, and found Luo Xi standing in front of her.

“Me?”

“Yes.”

“I’m called Little Fox!”

“I’m called Luo Xi. Your scenario design is very ingenious. I like it very much.”

“Uh, is that so? Actually, the ten-person difficulty scenario wasn’t designed by me, but thank you anyway. I hope you have a pleasant time.” Little Fox said.

“Little Fox, goodbye!”

Luo Xi waved his hand. Little Fox was stunned for a moment, and also waved back.

The six people walked to the entrance of another scenario project not far away.

In addition to Wu Rui, Mao Ge and Guo Zening were there, as well as Hou Cheng and Ke Lan.

These two people also knew very well that being able to come out alive from the Haunted House Escape, and even clear the instance, was entirely thanks to Luo Xi. It could be said that everyone made a profit.

Three [Memory] cards, one randomly drawn card.

“Brother, no need to say anything. If anything happens in the future, I'll be there whenever you call. I'll go through fire and water for you, no questions asked.” Hou Cheng was indeed very eloquent. Regardless of whether it was the truth or a lie, it seemed like it was all coming from the bottom of his heart when he said it.

No wonder he was able to gather a team of six people before.

But this time, the others he brought died in the ten-person difficulty of the Haunted House Escape.

Hou Cheng wasn't stupid.

Without Luo Xi, he would have starved to death eating stones.

After exchanging phone numbers with Luo Xi, he bid farewell and left.

Mainly because there was no need to take any more risks. Luo Xi and Ke Lan had purchased passes and would continue to experience all the remaining projects in the game house.

There was no need for him to do that.

He didn't have the courage anymore.

The Haunted House Escape still brought him a great shock. He needed to take it easy. His legs were still a little weak at the moment.

Moreover, he had made a profit this time, so he should quit while he was ahead and live longer.

At this time, Ke Lan glanced at Wu Rui and the others following behind Luo Xi, and then looked at Luo Xi: “I’ve challenged most of the scenario projects in this game house. Of course, the ten-person difficulty Haunted House Escape was indeed the first time… For the others, I can provide you with experience. It’s considered a return for you helping me clear the Haunted House Escape. I don’t like owing people favors.”

Luo Xi believed these words.

Although this Ke Lan acted alone, he was definitely not a stupid person. Among the many Reminiscence Gatherers, he definitely belonged to the more powerful type.

“In the game house, besides the claw machine and the Haunted House Escape, there are also Death Racing, CQB Real Person CS, Card Battle, Street Dance Thriller, and Lord War. I’ve played all of these except Lord War. Of course, I haven’t been able to clear every one of them.”

“Death Racing is actually a racing game, but the difficulty is extremely high, and it's almost impossible to beat. I definitely don't recommend playing it. CQB Real Person CS is okay; I've beaten it. I'm very experienced with shooting games, so I can take you to play it later. Card Battle is a player-versus-player arena game, which is very difficult, and you need to fight other Remnants, so it's not certain that you can find an opponent.”

“As for Street Dance Thriller, uh, how should I put it? I don't recommend you try it. I've already died twice in this game. Similarly, the difficulty to beat it is too high unless you can dance, at least do the splits. So later, we can first beat Real Person CS, and then choose to try Lord's War.”

Game experience is, of course, different from person to person and may not be universally applicable, but Luo Xi decided to adopt it for the time being.

They arrived at the entrance of the CQB Real Person CS venue.

With a pass, you can naturally directly show the ticket and enter the game, while others need to pay two [Memories] per person to enter.

The rules are also very simple. Inside, you will receive 'guns' to complete the challenge, but it is not limited to 'level mode'. There is also 'battle mode', but this requires both sides to attack each other in a small arena.

If you get shot, you really die.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

Obviously, it doesn't apply to them.

“Do you want to play?” Luo Xi looked at Wu Rui and Mao Ge.

All three shook their heads.

Two [Memories] are still relatively expensive, and they are not good at shooting.

“Guo Zening, you have cleared the game three times, so you should have obtained the card ring. You can first let Mao Ge and Wu Rui teach you how to perform the realization and carding exercises.”

Luo Xi instructed, and walked into the venue with Ke Lan.

Inside, there was a doll person wearing a rabbit costume. The other party was wearing a tactical vest, a helmet with two long ears exposed, and a holster on his waist, a very 'professional' outfit.

After checking the tickets, they received their respective equipment.

It was a vest, a pistol, and three magazines.

Luo Xi took the gun and looked at it, stunned.

“A real gun?” He looked at Ke Lan.

The latter smiled: “This is the danger of this game. Also, if it is a battle mode, the two sides shoot each other with real guns. Once hit, there is basically no cure.”

Luo Xi naturally knew this.

But since it is a real gun, is it possible to take the weapon out?

Ke Lan clearly saw Luo Xi's plan.

He leaned over and whispered: “I know what you are thinking, don’t think about it. You should know that the administrator’s combat power far exceeds ordinary people, and this rabbit also has a real gun on his waist. If you really do it, I can guarantee that both of us will die in his hands.”

Luo Xi nodded.

“The rules are very simple. Go in through this door, move forward, and pass through seven rooms. Leaving alive from the green door of Room 7 is considered a successful completion.”

“The reward for clearing the level is two [Memories] per person, and an opportunity to randomly draw gun parts. The ranking will be based on the number of killed target gunmen. The first place can draw two parts, and the rest can draw one. Please note that the gun parts themselves are card props and can be inherited to the next cycle day. If the parts can be put together to form a complete gun, you can get fifty free bullets for the corresponding gun from me. So, are there any questions?”

“What happens if you get shot?” Luo Xi asked.

“It depends on the position of the shot. If it doesn’t affect your movement, then there is no problem. I can provide medicine and free bullet removal and wound stitching services here, but if the position of the shot is a fatal wound, or a serious injury, then I will help you add another shot.”

The tactical rabbit actually grinned.

Seeming very expectant.

The doll clothes and mask on his body were like growing on his face, and even after making expressions, they could be revealed.

What kind of high-tech puppet clothes is this?

Or is that not clothes at all?

Ke Lan is so enthusiastic about this game scene. First of all, he must be proficient in shooting, and he also has a good understanding of guns. In addition to the [Memory] card, the purpose is also to draw gun parts. In principle, if you constantly play this scene and constantly draw gun parts, you can collect all the parts of a certain gun and then assemble it into a gun.

Even the administrator of this game project, the tactical rabbit, encourages Remnant players to do so.

Because the Remnant who completes the assembly of the gun can come to him to receive bullets.

Just thinking about it, a gun that can be carded and can be retained on every cycle day is a great help for Remnants.

Many times, a powerful weapon is enough to reverse the situation.

“How many times have you been here?” Luo Xi asked Ke Lan at this time.

The latter smiled: “Including this time, it’s the seventh time!”

“If you are first place all seven times, that is fourteen chances to draw parts.”

“Uh, it’s not that simple. Although I’m very good at this game project, I can’t win every time. Besides, even if I clear the level, I’m not necessarily the first place.”

Ke Lan didn't lie.

If there is really no danger, then this scene itself cannot exist.

Luo Xi looked at the gun in his hand at this time.

He found that he actually knew it, and not only knew what kind of gun it was, but even knew the parameters of the gun.

Glock G17, 9mm, the whole gun is made of metal and engineering plastic, only 620 grams, the whole gun including the magazine has only 32 parts, high shooting accuracy, good man-machine function

This gun, 32 parts, if you get first place in all of them, you need to clear the level at least 16 times.

“Wait a minute!”

Just as the two were about to enter the scene, someone shouted over there.

Two people ran over.

“We also play this, just right, we have two people, you also have two people, why don’t we play a battle arena? You need to know that the rewards for battle arena are twice as high as the level mode.”

Luo Xi had seen the two people who ran over.

They were the two people who pushed a Remnant off the building when they first came to Rainbow City.

They came just in time.

Or have they been observing here somewhere?

Coming over suddenly at this time must be plotting something.

“It’s you guys. You said we would play together before. Why did you run away first?” Luo Xi smiled.

“Something came up temporarily. Didn’t we rush over as soon as we finished? Let’s play shooting together. You have to be merciful later.” One of them also smiled insincerely.

“I actually don’t know how to play. Look, I don’t even know how to shoot.” Luo Xi picked up the Glock G17 in his hand and pointed the gun at the two people.

In an instant, the faces of the two people changed.

“Hey, wait a minute!”

Bang!

Luo Xi looked at Ke Lan beside him in surprise. The other party pulled his arm up the moment he fired, so the shot hit the ceiling, almost grazing the other party's head.

“Damn it, you did it on purpose. You want to kill me.” The man on the opposite side couldn't hold it anymore and couldn't continue to act like a smiling tiger.

Just now, his head was almost blown off.

Ke Lan winked at Luo Xi, and the latter turned to look at the military uniform rabbit doll.

The latter looked regretful.

It also seemed to regret that Luo Xi didn't kill the other party with one shot just now.

Now, Luo Xi understood.

If you kill other Remnants outside the scene, there will definitely be punishment.

It is estimated that he will be killed on the spot.

However, this rule is not written on the wall, and there is no rule that prohibits killing people here. You must know that he asked the doll employee there when he was grabbing dolls before. The other party said that killing people is not prohibited in the game room.

Because of this, he fired without hesitation just now.

But a person like Ke Lan would not stop himself aimlessly.

So Luo Xi smiled and said to the two completely furious Remnants on the opposite side: “Why are you getting angry? I said I don’t know guns. I don’t even know how to shoot. I just pressed it randomly. Who knew the gun would fire as soon as I pulled it? It scared me.”

“I forgot to say that although our game room does not restrict killing people, you cannot use the guns here to kill people. If you violate it, I will kill you on the spot.” The military uniform rabbit doll laughed at this time.

“It was really a misfire. I didn’t subjectively want to kill anyone.” Luo Xi waved his hand and cursed the other party in his heart for not saying this rule, obviously holding back bad intentions and waiting for someone to violate the rules.

This rabbit is quite insidious.
