You don't decrypt at all do you?

"came back?"

Stephen looked up at Tom and asked, "Did you see the player?"

"Not yet." Tom shook his head and glanced at the sweet potato rind under Stephen's feet: "Don't eat other people's things, that's bad."

Stephen switched back to his native language, spoke more fluently, and retorted with a smile: "I also have canned food, let's share it together."

Tom shook his head, it didn't make sense to him.

"Why haven't the two of them come back yet?" Stephen looked at the snow on Tom's body, and said worriedly: "Is it snowing? There are no stars or moon, and the compass on the mobile phone is not working. It is very troublesome when it is dark." .”

"I just saw them." Tom waved his hand, picked up a can and threw it into the boiling water, "It's just a little far away, so I didn't wait for them outside."

"Oh." Stephen felt relieved, and suddenly remembered: "When they come back to arrange the night duty, the current situation does not allow players to go up the mountain, so they have to keep an eye on it."

Tom nodded, thinking that it was annoying to be like this outside: "You can't stare at anything inside the house. If you stand outside, let alone half a night, two hours is pretty terrible."

Stephen grinned when he heard the words, scratching his head: "...I don't know how it was cut for us this time."

Tom laughed and was about to answer the call when he heard the sound of the door opening and wrapped his head in the cotton coat, switched languages ​​seamlessly, and waved to Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang with a smile: "I'm back."

Zhu Wen nodded, "We saw a player outside just now."

"what?!"

Stephen got up awkwardly: "Where is that person? Solved it? Or... let him go?"

"dead."

Zhu Wen glanced at Stephen in surprise, frowned, and said, "Why are you reacting so strongly? Aren't we the only four players? What we saw were dead people,"

He took out a mobile phone that was completely broken from his pocket: "The mobile phone was discontinued two years ago, but the body wear is very low. It seems that this mobile phone is still a 'new mobile phone' for that corpse. So that A corpse should at least be buried here...huh?"

Zhu Wen reacted and took a breath.

"Wait a moment."

He waved his hands and began to stroke forward.

I have never heard of it, the corpse of the player hidden in the game scene, whose death time can be traced back to a few years ago.

The average score of the authorities and the total number of players in the opening game are not stated otherwise except for the release of the plot.

Stephen and Tom's usual attitude, and their nervous attitude when they heard him mention "player" just now.

At first, Zhu Wen habitually thought that this might be a game specially used to score points after the "detention" punishment, but now it seems...

Zhu Wen put away his phone and suddenly asked, "How many points do you have?"

Stephen and Tom were stunned for a moment, and they were caught off guard when the topic changed: "What, what?"

After asking, Stephen continued: "I am more than 12, and Tom is 15."

"A little less than 14," Tom corrected, "wasted a bit in the living quarters."

Zhu Wen said "ah", "So we are BOSS, and the 'mob' who will sneak up the mountain are players?"

Steven and Tom: "What else?!"

002: Who is the novice? 6K

"if not?!"

After yelling at Zhu Wen, Stephen and Tom went numb one after another.

"I...I don't understand."

Stephen Ababa took a long while, holding his head and stroking forward: "So..."

He looked at Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang, and confirmed, "What you said earlier, 'the first time you played this kind of game' was not the first time you were 'detained', but the first time you played a high-scoring game?"

"Misunderstood." Zhu Wen shook his head and said calmly, "It's the first time for both."

Stephen directly gave a "thick-li crab" and sat down on the floor.

Zhu Wen sat down opposite him in a calm manner, eager to learn: "Is there any difference between the two?"

Stephen covered his face and didn't answer.

"...No, there is not much difference." Tom calmed down a little, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, gestured to Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang, and asked, "Do you mind?"

Ji Shuang: "Excuse me."

Tom: "..." Normally, in this case, shouldn't you say "I don't mind"?

He looked embarrassed and looked at Zhu Wen.

Zhu Wen asked strangely: "What do you see me doing? Didn't she say she minded?"

Tom: "..."

He put away his cigarette, and covered his face with his hands like Stephen.

Zhu Wen raised his hand and knocked on the floor, and said with a smile: "It's not possible."

"...As for." Tom wiped his face and raised his head again: "So you are real 'newcomers', right?"

He stroked back and forth, and felt that there was only one possibility: "That is to say, you scored the real high-scoring game in a way that the game disapproved of, and received a penalty notice from the game at the same time you got the score, and were sent to the Living quarters...not right, not right."

When Tom said this, he rejected himself:

"No, no, if you have never played this kind of game, why would you realize that you are taking the role of 'BOSS'? This is also unreasonable."

"What's unreasonable about this?" Zhu Wen propped his chin, and threw the pot out with his backhand: "We knew about this a long time ago, and the original intention was that we were far away from the 10-point game. time to prepare.”

"Who knows that the two of you are different from us in terms of game positioning, so strictly speaking."

Zhu Wen pointed to Tom: "It was you who wanted to team up with us again and again. We agreed to your proposal based on the principle of being kind to others. So the current situation is completely caused by your concealment of points and game positions."

Tom: "...?"

He was stupefied for a while, raised his hand and said "wait a minute", then took out his mobile phone and found a translation dictionary to look up the specific interpretation of the idiom "be kind to others".

After a while, Tom raised his head and confirmed, "You...are kind to others?"

Zhu Wen nodded.

Tom: "..."

it is good.

Now he knew why Stephen came to him, saying that when Zhu Wen and the others agreed to form a team, he had such an urgent face.

Not right either.

Tom glanced at Stephen, who had completely shut down, and his brain was spinning so fast that it almost sparked an electric spark.

He lost his voice and said, "Then what do you mean by 'you are still very early to reach 10 points'? How much are you scoring?!"

Zhu Wen was silent for a while, then said hesitantly, "Barely count as 9 points."

Tom: "What's 'reluctantly'?!"

He felt that he and Zhu Wen had no way to communicate, so he looked at Ji Shuang again: "What about you?"

Zhu Wen then looked at Ji Shuang, "Yes, what about you?"

Tom: "???" You don't even know how many points your teammates have? !

Ji Shuang: "..."

She crossed her arms and stood there for a while, "tsk!" and looked at Tom: "Your language habits are to digress when you are talking about business?"

Tom: "...?" Isn't it nice to attack cultural differences?

After a long silence, he waved his hand awkwardly: "Then... let's talk about the original thing first, that is indeed more important."

Zhu Wen said "tsk!" and looked at Tom disapprovingly: "Your communication habit is to give up halfway?"

Tom: "...?" What do you want from me?

He dried up the silence and regretted impulsively.

They shouldn't have taken this game's car in the first place, no, they should have talked to Zhu Wen and the others in the first place.

Seeing that Tom had stopped talking, Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang frowned and said in unison: "Should we still talk?"

Tom was shocked by the chord, pushed Stephen, and then said: "I went outside to smoke a cigarette, and he said the same."

After speaking, he rushed out of the cabin in embarrassment.

Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang looked at Stephen.

Stephen: "I...I want to smoke too..."

Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang: "You don't want to."

Stephen: "..." Well, I don't want to.

He looked at Zhu Wen and Ji Shuang.

Mainly because of Ji Shuang, he was still afraid that Ji Shuang would take the opportunity to wipe his neck.

Thinking about it, Stephen moved towards Zhu Wen's direction: "Actually... there is no difference."

"'Detention' will hide some information from our camp, such as the number of players in the authority and the average score. Because this information is also important information for us to evaluate our opponents."

"But..." Steven spread his hands: "We are still carrying 'punishment', so this reminder is cancelled."

Zhu Wen understood, no wonder he said something wrong before.

Row.

He propped his chin and said unhurriedly: "What else?"

"and also?"

Stephen froze for a moment, not knowing where to start.

This kind of basic rules, apart from feeling uncomfortable due to the change of identity in the first few games, after playing, it is basically something engraved in the DNA.At a time like this, there is still a need for an eloquent explanation, and for a moment he really didn't know where to start.

He scratched his hair and said awkwardly: "No, you ask?"

"also."

Zhu Wen does have a lot of questions: "So we are now considered NPCs from the player's perspective. If the players don't find the corresponding clues, in their eyes, we should only belong to the type of NPCs with a plot on them?"

Stephen said "right to right" twice: "That's almost what it means."

"But there is one thing I don't understand." Zhu Wen frowned and asked: "In the games I have been playing, there is a 'death trigger condition' from the player's perspective in every game. That is to say, in fact Can't we attack players at will to prevent them from passing the level?"

"exactly!"

Stephen slapped his head: "It's like this."

He moved a little closer to Zhu Wen, and glanced at Ji Shuang.

Seeing that Ji Shuang was also listening carefully, the surprise on Stephen's face was fleeting.

Afterwards, he picked up Zhu Wen's words just now: "The pre-plot mentioned in the game broadcast is very important. As far as this level is concerned, you can watch it."

Stephen raised his hand and made random gestures: "The broadcast said that we are the ones guarding the mountain, and we must stop the 'mob' below the mountain, that is, players from going up the mountain, right?"

"Here comes one of the prerequisites for us to be able to attack the player. Namely,"

Stephen tapped the floor, and said: "Once the player enters our sight, to be precise, he crosses the cabin we are in now, it means that the death condition is triggered, and we can attack the player."

Zhu Wen: "So there are only 4 of us. If players choose to take a detour to avoid our sight, they can go up the mountain without injury, and then pass the level?"

"If you omit the intermediate steps, it's like this." Stephen continued to gesture, and Zhu Wen suspected that if he pressed his hand, he might not be able to speak.

Stephen continued: "But they will encounter some NPCs on the way, but they are different from our 'NPCs', real NPCs, do you understand?"

Zhu Wen: "Little monster?"

Steven: "Bingo!"

"This is the help the game gave us, something used to lay out the plot."

Stephen said: "It is also used to correct the conditions of the player's clearance route. Remember what was said in the pre-plot? There is a 'relative of the mob' among us. So no matter how they detour, they must return to our in view."

Zhu Wen: "So generally speaking, as long as we don't go up the mountain, even if the player runs up the mountain, it's not considered a clearance."

"That's true. But in general,"

Stephen nodded, and then said in a low voice, "Under the clearance conditions like this, the game's requirement for that 'relative' is life or death. As long as you find it, you can take the corpse away."
