It's time, it's time to switch to the cranial doctor

Noticing that there was a vacancy in the mouth of the gargoyle, Zhou Zhuo stood on tiptoe and tried to stuff the ruby ​​in. The space was just right and it fit perfectly.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

When running quickly screamed, the demon statue had already been activated, its strong jaws easily crushed the ruby ​​in its mouth, and its dark eyes glowed red.

Under the shroud of red light, three scarlet floating light spots appeared on the back of Zhou Zhuo's hand. They slowly moved under the skin, like some kind of potential crisis that could erupt at any time. This is exactly the nightmare he carried number of seeds.

Attracted by the light, they escaped from the back of Zhou Zhuo's hand and flew to the center of the ruby.

The waking demon statue looked directly at the short human being in front of him, and let out a deep roar: "Idiot, you have disturbed my sweet dreams. Offer enough sacrifices, or you will be tormented by the curse forever!"

"broken!"

Seeing that the black hand of the team took the initiative to touch the mechanism again, I fell into a dream with a shock, and ptsd broke out.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Zhuo asked with an innocent face, "The mechanism of this thing is that if it is triggered, you must do it to the end, otherwise you will be punished, and you didn't trigger it. Why are you nervous? There is a saying that the emperor is not in a hurry... "

Just as I fell into a dream, I wanted to turn my face directly, and suddenly remembered that the number of nightmare seeds of the other party had not yet reached 4, and the number of seeds displayed under the ruby ​​light was indeed 3, and he quickly regained his previous composure.

"Don't...it's nothing." He really couldn't stand Zhou Zhuo's broken mouth, and quickly made a gesture of invitation: "You continue."

The two sides are each other's tools, but the problem is that Bai Yexing was sniped by Zhou Zhuo at the beginning, and now he is basically paralyzed. If you don't use this opportunity to seek more substantial benefits, you will shrink the circle later It will become more and more difficult to play in the future, so it is still necessary to endure it now.

"Okay, then I will continue to study."

Zhou Zhuo gave the back a look, Ma Lou couldn't understand, but Lin Slowly understood it quickly, ran up the stage, and followed behind Zhou Zhuo.

After finishing the opening remarks, the demon statue didn't respond. It's hard not to doubt whether this thing is a repeater from another world, and it doesn't look like a highly intelligent item.

Zhou Zhuo fiddled with the statue for a while, but he didn't find any other mechanisms, and he wouldn't drop anything when he knocked on it, so he gave Lin Slowly a look, and the two exchanged positions. Zhou Zhuo went to the audience to look at Bai Ye For those who can do it, she stays near the ruby.

"Is anyone here?" Of course Zhou Zhuo didn't forget the ability of the seed on his body.

"I'm here, but I've been wandering around the square. It seems that I'm on my guard, and I'm not so easy to deceive." Follow me into the dream and nod, not denying that I have been observing the surrounding environment.

"What are you going to do? Stand by and wait, or take the initiative?"

"Perhaps there is a third way."

"tell me the story."

"Fishing enforcement."

As I fell asleep, I took out a smoke bomb and threw it at my feet. The dense fog that filled the air quickly blocked everyone's sight.

Zhou Zhuo was a little surprised by the opponent's sudden decision, but he didn't need to be nervous with his teammates avoiding injuries.

"This is?"

In the dense fog came the voice of falling into my dreams, and he was in the original position without moving a step.

"Of course fishing requires a suitable bait. In this case, what kind of bait do you think will make them most irresistible? In addition, my smoke bomb is a special consumable, which is the replacement you used last time." products, it will continuously create thick fog and spread to the surrounding area, and the visibility will be very low for a long time, covering about half of the square."

With such a reminder, Zhou Zhuo understood what he meant.

PVP and PVE are two completely different game environments. In ordinary stealth games, throwing a coin and making some noise can attract the attention of the guards, because the intelligence of AI only allows them to respond to simple environmental factors. But players are different.

There is only one reason for players to ignore potential dangers: interests.

Everyone cares about different interests, but in a game mode where the ranking is based on competitive scores, this intention is much easier to guess. Simply speaking, it is to kill players to gain points and plunder resources.

Follow me into a dream just took advantage of this mentality and deliberately threw a smoke bomb towards his position to create the illusion that there are people fighting here, so that those lingering players feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Zhou Zhuo asked himself that if he was really a person who was waiting for the opportunity to enter the arena, it would be difficult for him to observe this scene patiently.

After all, who would have thought that normal people would throw a smoke bomb at their feet inexplicably?This situation must be due to the fact that the two sides have already started a war. If you continue to hesitate, you may find that the battle inside is over if you go late, and you will be given a wave of food as soon as you enter. Now you can go in to fish in troubled waters.

"Tender and true!"

Having figured it out, Zhou Zhuo gave Follow Me a Thumbs Up.

"Here we come." Follow me into a dream and whispered, "Do you have vision in the thick fog?"

"Ah, there is no such thing." Zhou Zhuo said nonsense.

Follow me into a dream without realizing that I've been hooked, and thinking that I can finally get rid of the annoying spirits, hunt freely, and take the initiative, I'm so happy.

"Okay." There was still a little "disappointment" in the tone of "Follow me into a dream", "Then I will take someone to clear the field in the fog, and you guard the statue?"

"Okay."

The two quickly reached a consensus, and Zhou Zhuo agreed quite readily, but in fact he had a ulterior motive.

In the scarlet hunter's perception, the three of Bai Yexing had all left, and started a hunting operation bounded by the smoke range, with the goal of collecting four nightmare seeds.

After confirming this information, Zhou Zhuo returned to the platform where the demon statue was, and looked at the white mist in the distance with a playful expression.

Follow me into a dream may still be lucky at this time, thinking that in this way, the benefits of cooperation can be maximized and the gap between the two parties can be quickly narrowed.

Little did he know that Zhou Zhuo had collected all the mission props long ago, and he was worried about how to distract Bai Yexing, but he didn't expect to follow me into a dream and directly feed the reasons into his mouth.

Poor Baiye Captain, being played by him in the applause, is really touching.

Because Zhou Zhuo got not one nightmare seed from the thirteen players of the men in black, but two.

The number of the three nightmare seeds he reported at the beginning was indeed correct, but one of them was not in his possession, but was slowly held by Lin.

Follow me into a dream subconsciously thinks that Zhou Zhuo is the core of the team, so all the powerful props will be held by him, but he didn’t take this into consideration. The quest props happened to be two, so he borrowed this ingenious cognitive dislocation to deepen The misunderstanding of following me into the dream made the other party mistakenly think that the three seeds he held after distributing the spoils were all.

"The show is about to begin." Zhou Zhuo clapped his hands, and slowly said to Lin who had been waiting behind him for a long time, "Get ready to start."

"Uh-huh!"

Lin Slowly is also a classic fun person. He held back for a long time and had no chance to show it. Now he finally felt comfortable. He came under the red light of the demon statue and handed over the nightmare seed.

The four light spots converged in one place, fused together, and then disappeared, but the ruby ​​was lit up, and the light flowed all over the body.

Just when Zhou Zhuo was wondering how to choose the place where the nightmare fell, the demon statue collapsed silently, and disappeared completely when blown by the wind, leaving only a sudden platform, and the evolved ruby ​​fell into it. In the hands of Lin Slowly.

"There are four places where the nightmare can be chosen." After a moment of stunned, Lin slowly said, "South, east, west, and north, our location is south."

"Are the four areas all in the corners of the city?" Zhou Zhuo asked.

"It should be like this." Lin slowly handed over the ruby, "Come and see."

The moment he got it, a prompt box popped out in Zhou Zhuo's sight.

[Devil's Gift: Consume redstone to trigger a large-scale nightmare in the designated area, and remove the negative effects of nightmare seeds. 】

Putting your hand on the "Devil's Gift", two additional pages popped up randomly, one is a map, and the other is an explanation of the nightmare.

[Nightmare comes: Guided by the will of the devil, a portal connecting heaven and earth is opened in the area where the statue is located.The demons from hell will come to the world with black smoke, they are immortal, and they are bound to kill all life in front of them. 】

This is a map that cannot be considered a map. The blank area is divided into five parts. The four corners are marked with the same demon mark, except for the middle, and only the four outer areas can be selected. .

Previously, Zhou Zhuo was still thinking about how to shrink the circle of this free PVX hybrid mode, and now he has the answer.

"I guess there is such a demon statue in every corner of the nightmare city. When the first player to activate the statue chooses the area where the nightmare falls, the actual shrinking circle should begin."

This design is very interesting. The way to shrink the circle is fixed, but the direction is determined by the player. If nothing else, the area covered by nightmares should not be able to use redstone to summon nightmares again.

The game map is too large, except for a few extremely lucky players, most players will not know the situation in other areas in the initial stage of the game, so this is still a random event, but the player's controllable factors have been added to the process , making the game more interesting.

Once the nightmare in a certain area begins to spread, the immortal and infinitely refreshed demons will never be able to resist directly. Players in the area can only find ways to escape. This achieves the goal of "maintaining the player's movement frequency" and Bringing a new twist to the boring hunt in a pool of stagnant water.

At present, the pre-requirements for activating the demon statue are nothing more than two, collect four nightmare seeds, and then pass the organ test.

It sounds a little difficult, but it is very common in a player base of tens of thousands, so the time to shrink the circle is completely predictable.

No matter where those players are driven by the nightmare, when the four corners are occupied by the drug circle, there is only one place they can go to, the central area, and that is the location of the Sabbath finals.

To Zhou Zhuo's surprise, the Nightmare Seed is not a consumable, it still exists after use, and the player who activates the Demon Statue can avoid the interference of negative effects.

Zhou Zhuo now carries three seeds on his body. Their effects are: dodge fatal damage, return physical damage, and the relatively tasteless one will never fall. After removing the negative effect of causing headaches, these special effects have real effects significance.

At this time, the remaining trio of Bai Yexing are killing in the fog. As a standard assassin with full agility points, this environment is simply a killing field that I dream of dreaming of. With a knife in hand, it is a life, no matter what props you have What kind of skill, as long as it kills instantly, there is no difference between a master and a rookie.

Watching the points increase little by little, and the loot also increasing, I couldn't help but sneer suddenly, which scared the curtain beside me to the wind.

Because he has already met the not-too-distant future, they who were the first to collect the seeds of nightmares concealed it first, checked the statue under the pretext, stepped forward to activate it in advance, and seized the opportunity, what 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi.

At this time, Zhou Zhuo had already used red stones, and released Nightmare Coming in the northern area opposite to the south. In this way, most of the players who were driven away by the poisonous circle would run to the south, and thus fell into a new situation. nightmare.

"Wow ha ha ha ha ha ha..."

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhuo couldn't help putting his hands on his hips, and let out a villainous laugh, what is specialization in the art industry, PVE thinking really doesn't work in PVP games.

A nightmare was successfully summoned, the power stored in the red stone was consumed, and the tarnished gem was left behind. The holder can check the map inside at any time to confirm which areas on the map have been shrouded by the nightmare.

As for how to deal with Bai Yexing, I can only figure it out slowly.It's a pity that they are protected by demons, otherwise Zhou Zhuo would simply let the demons descend under his feet and directly involve them and solve the problem.

What a pity.

However, he has almost figured out the next plan, let's hide the disappearance of the demon statue first, and use "accidentally touched it" as the reason, they should believe it!

New Year's Eve Reward 12.27-1.3

It's been a long time since I offered a reward. I've had a bad cold recently. After a few days of fever, I finally recovered a lot. It just so happens that there is a New Year's Eve event, so I'm here to ask for a monthly pass.

This time the requirements are lowered, 500 recommendation tickets, 100 monthly tickets, 100 blades/rewards to accumulate a standard chapter, no upper limit, mainly because I want monthly tickets to improve the ranking of the new book list, please vote more

Chapter 291 You may not believe it

After releasing the nightmare at the diagonal position, Zhou Zhuo did not rush to the next move, but waited patiently in place in case things changed.

Zhou Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the points that had not been moved for a long time next to the attribute panel jumped from 79 to 80. The nightmare had indeed come, because it clearly stated [All souls swallowed by nightmares will be your help], It should be that some unlucky guy happened to be under the gate of hell, and was killed in a flash by the way.

After that, the increase in points became irregular, sometimes it would suddenly increase by 3-4 points, and sometimes it would get nothing, and it took a long time to get 1 point.

From this, Zhou Zhuo judged that the speed at which the nightmare spread was relatively slow, as long as he was not surrounded by other players and was in an extremely bad situation, he could basically escape temporarily.

In this way, players in that area still have the opportunity to find and activate the demon statues in the area, and the nightmare will come, but the difficulty will be higher than before, which is equivalent to speeding up the elimination rhythm of the game with the help of players.

About 10 minutes later, I fell into a dream and brought back the two people who walked in the white night. He looked very tired, his body was covered with blood, and it was still dripping, but there was no wound, it should be splashed from someone else .

The two sides met each other, and just as I fell into a dream, I wanted to show my face in return, but was surprised to find that the statue on the platform was gone.

"No...are my eyes dazzled?"

"There are no flowers, even if I look at them, they are gone."

"……me too."

The three of them all looked shocked. What was the reason for leaving Zhou Zhuo and his party to guard the statue at the beginning?This thing is big and heavy, and it won't run away even if it's left alone.

And their group of players who passed through the mechanism at the same time obtained the protection of the devil, and they will not be harmed by nightmares within an hour, which means that no matter what the sledgehammer wants to do, it will not affect them, so what are you afraid of?

Even if you step back ten thousand steps and say that the sledgehammer activated some trap again, it will be you who will suffer at that time, and those who are far away will be fine.

For these reasons, I was negligent when I fell into a dream. Who knew that I went hunting hard outside, and even the statue was gone when I came back...

"Ah," Zhou Zhuo lowered his hands, smiling calmly, "Everyone, don't panic, it's just a technical adjustment, let me explain."

Follow me into a dream and can't speak, but the expression "I'll see how you perform" is already clearly written.

"The thing is like this." Zhou Zhuo took a step forward, came to the place where the statue was, and made a show gesture, "As you can see, there was a solid statue weighing three to four tons at this place just now. I can't move away, is that the reason?"

No one answered, and Zhou Zhuo gradually became familiar with each other. Everyone knew that answering the conversation at this time would make him sick, so it was better to just pretend to be dead.

"Who knows you..." Pao Kuai muttered.

Follow me into my dream to pull him, but it was too late, Zhou Zhuo and the wild cat looked at him like a mouse, and applauded: "Thank you for this gentleman's approval! It's a pity that I don't have enough ability. It is impossible to remove such a huge statue in a short period of time, if it is possible, you two should be in my left pocket by now."

"No." The neglected Xifeng Xifeng was displeased, "I'm not a co-author or what?"

"Brother, you are big, I will put your right pocket separately." Zhou Zhuo said.

Fan Juan Xifeng was immediately happy: "Then I have to thank you?"

Zhou Zhuo was quite polite: "Then I have to say in advance 'You're welcome, this is what I should do'."

The tall and burly Xifeng Xifeng finally put himself in their shoes and experienced how they felt when they were running fast. He stood back and said that he would never intervene.

"Okay, let's get back to the main story. Everyone saw the statue in this position, but it's gone. Why did it disappear? First of all, I definitely didn't move it away."

Run Kuai Kuai almost wanted to talk again, but this time he held back.

"Then the question is, since I didn't move it away, who took it away? Could it be that it spread its wings and flew away? Of course not, even a fool can fly such a big statue into the air. See."

Run Kuai Kuai finally couldn't help it anymore: "Can you just say it directly?"

"Hey, this audience seems to be a little impatient." Zhou Zhuo turned sideways and waved his hand, "But without Kansai, the inference is very close to the truth, and after eliminating all wrong options, no matter how abnormal the rest is, it must be The only correct answer."

"The truth is, when I touched it, it shattered and disappeared." Zhou Zhuo put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly, "Haha! Are you surprised, surprised?"
