Weird Calendar

In the realm of the old calendar, the Silkworm Pagoda Hall.

The entrance to the higher level is blocked by thick silk.

The people wrapped in silk around them all began to twist their bodies.

Li Lu saw this scene and felt extremely scared:

"What...are they? Are they actually alive?"

"ah--"

Li Lu suddenly found that she was also moving.

Like a chess piece controlled by an invisible hand, Li Lu only felt a strange force acting on herself.

She quickly came behind Jian Yiyi.

This made Li Lu surprised at first, and then happy.

"Little Miss Misery, how did you move? But you'd better stand here and don't move."

Jian Yiyi had an expression as if he was a loser, as if he was not involved at all. With a bystander's mentality, he happily analyzed and looked forward to what would happen next.

Everyone saw a strange scene.

Lan Yu frowned, he found a monster coming to him.

The man wrapped in silk was obviously only two meters away from him, and he was clearly unable to move - but he suddenly stopped.

Soon Jian Yi discovered:

"It's so interesting, Xiaoyu, have you noticed that every monster moves at the same distance!"

Lan Yu suddenly realized.

Gu An, Xun Lilu and others were also surprised that they had just discovered this.

"They seem to have all moved. Is it time for us to take action next?"

Although Jian Yiyi has not yet fully figured out what happened, he has participated in the recruitment many times and understands one thing -

The core of participating in the recruitment is to understand the rules.

Once you figure out the rules, some things are easy to do.

There is no point in being anxious. You must keep your brain calm and rational at all times.

Gu Anxun looked at Jian Yiyi's relaxed and calm look and thought of Qiao Wei.

By chance, he and Qiao Wei were recruited together. At that time, Qiao Wei also had a calm face, and even showed some interest in the extremely twisted realm of the past.

"Perhaps only such people can become the winners of the Old Calendar Realm."

Jian Yiyi's relaxed attitude made everyone feel at ease.

Even Qin Ze.

…

…

Before the start of the first round, with only the last few seconds left to prepare for the battle, Qin Ze stopped studying the data and chose to place Li Lu, the weakest fighter, next to Jian Yiyi.

When Li Lu came behind Jian Yiyi, a message "Morale + 2" appeared above Li Lu's head.

Then, the scene that appeared in Qin Ze's perspective was that the enemy units started to take action.

"The attack distance is one, so all enemy units are melee units. In other words, these people wrapped in silk can only attack places adjacent to the target grid..."

"This is the first level. It should be a teaching level, so the enemies should not be strong. There are thirty in number, and we only have four..."

"It cannot be ruled out that the Realm of Old History is just a game. Maybe there is a huge gap in strength between the enemy and us, and there is no need to play it at all."

"In short, we cannot take it lightly. With a small number of our units, there is a possibility of being besieged. Maybe the group will be wiped out at the first level..."

"The most important thing is to avoid being surrounded. Then you have to take advantage of the large terrain and fly kites with the opponent."

Qin Ze tried to formulate a combat strategy.

He needs to figure out the basic combat power settings of the game.

When staring at Li Lu, Qin Ze saw Li Lu's attributes.

Including mobility E, defense E, attack E, special ability B, adaptability E, and negotiation ability B.

In the analysis of hexagonal pattern data, Li Lu was not good at almost all aspects. Only the special ability column was visible.

Gu Anxun seemed very powerful.

Mobility C, defense power C, attack power S, special ability C, adaptability A, and negotiation ability C.

He is considered a very strong damage-dealing player. The most important thing is that Gu Anxun has a very long range and the grid covers all enemy units.

"A very strong shooter... Gu Deyou still has two skills. As long as Gu Anxun is in a good position."

Qin Ze looked at Lan Yu.

All of Lan Yu's attributes are strange.

Mobility SS+?, defense S+?, attack power S+?, special ability S+?, adaptability S+?, and negotiation ability D+?.

"It's outrageous. You're desperate, you're desperate. There's still a big gap between you and a big star."

"Big star, negotiation skills...well, it's understandable, completely understandable. But what does the plus sign with the question mark mean?"

Qin Ze immediately thought of something——

Lan Yu's basic attributes and special abilities come from criminals.

And Lan Yu is still an actor, so the final value of Lan Yu’s ability depends on who Lan Yu plays?

It is worth mentioning that Lan Yu's shooting range is not long. It's not pure melee combat, but it can't launch long-range attacks either.

"It's a very useful chess piece, with almost no shortcomings!"

Qin Ze thought of it and asked Lan Yu to protect Gu Anxun, assist Gu Anxun in output, and let Li Lu follow Jian Yiyi.

Next, he looked at Wang Zha's trump card.

"The team leader's attributes are so abnormal..."

Mobility A, defense MAX, attack power SSS, special ability SS, adaptability SS, and negotiation ability A.

"This is simply invincible. There are no shortcomings at all. The meaning of co-writing Li Lu's existence is to play Tang Monk, right?"

Qin Ze did not expect that Jian Yiyi's defense power was MAX, which was higher than SSS.

This means that in this game, Jian Yiyi's defense is at the ceiling level.

"Suddenly I felt like I was cheating."

This is not surprising. The taboo level is despair, which often leads to a person experiencing death.

But Jian Yiyi relieved Qin Ze's despair while strolling in the courtyard. On the contrary, Gu Hopelessness was quite desperate that day.

So in a sense, this is not the first time Qin Ze has used the "Mama Jane auxiliary software".

Jian Yiyi's shooting range is still not as good as Gu Anxun. But for Qin Ze, he already knows the key to this game.

"Big stars are already very powerful, but there is still a gap between them and Mama Jian. There is still a long way to catch up."

"But this is just a game representation. In reality, these things cannot be digitized."

Qin Ze began to move the chess pieces, Jian's mother protected Li Lu, and Lan Yu protected Gu Anxun, who had high attack power and low health.

He first moved Jian Yiyi and tried to let Jian Yiyi attack one of the silk puppets.

When making this choice, Qin Ze noticed that attacks were divided into arcane attacks and normal attacks.

Qin Ze did not choose the secret attack.

But even a normal attack was incredible. The SSS's attack power allowed Jian Yi to kill a silk puppet instantly.

Morale of all members +3.

Just when Qin Ze saw that Jian Yiyi had exhausted all his mobility and could only wait for the next round to use again——

Special characters appeared on Jian Yiyi's head:

[The target feels very happy, full of fighting spirit, triggers special attributes, and recovers mobility. 】

Qin Ze was delighted, it was like saying that the chess pieces that could only launch one attack and move once in one round——

Has new attack times and walking grids.

He moved Jian Yiyi decisively and eliminated the silk man behind Li Lu.

Another instant kill.

Once again, Jane triggered the special attributes one by one and regained her mobility.

So Qin Ze used Jian Yiyi again.

Jane kept moving one by one, getting closer to monsters, killing them, and improving morale.

Soon, Qin Ze discovered that morale was at full strength and all the staff were at full strength.

There were dozens of monsters in the first level, and Jian single-handedly eliminated half of them in the first round.

Finally, after Jane regained her mobility more than a dozen times...

Qin Ze had no option to trigger mobility recovery again.

"This is probably the only effect I can get if I turn on the modifier. The team leader is really outrageous."

Anyone who has played this type of war chess game knows that the range, attack power, mobility, terrain and position of the chess pieces must be calculated.

But now, Qin Ze discovered that there was no need for a strategy at all.

Jian Yiyi can complete the level alone, at least on the first floor of this tower.

Next, Qin Ze asked Gu Anxun to use a secret.

Among the secret options, there is an option called "Storm March".

It has a large range and is an attack in a fan-shaped area. All enemies in the area will suffer damage.

The S-level attack power did not allow these silk puppets to be killed instantly, but it also knocked out most of their health.

At the same time, a special effect was triggered·Not to be outdone.

The interface Qin Ze saw was like this.

[The proud Gu Anxun is not willing to lag behind and wants to be the most dazzling person on the court. Gu Anxun's attack power is increased, and when Qin Ze is present, this effect attribute is doubled. 】

Qin Ze: 6.

Co-author Jane's mother is killing everyone, but you think of me as an imaginary enemy, right?

Qin Ze smiled and shook his head. Because Jian Yiyi was too brave, there was no suspense in this first level.

The next step is to control Lan Yu.

Lan Yu is also very powerful. Although there is a gap between him and Jian Yiyi, he is stronger in terrifying mobility.

Gu Anxun's shooting range covers many enemies, while Lan Yu can go directly to these enemies or even behind them.

Qin Ze asked Lan Yu to walk behind the target.

So the scene of the attack changed to Lan Yu launching a throat slit.

Although they both have S attack power, due to Lan Yu's criminal characteristics, Lan Yu always goes to the weak points.

Obviously Gu Anxun can only clear two-thirds of the enemy's health, but Lan Yu can harvest with full health.

And Lan Yu also triggered the special effect [Win]

[Victory: When Lan Yu’s kill count is lower than Jian Yiyi’s, Lan Yu’s probability of triggering mobility recovery will increase. 】

Qin Ze had to admit that this game was quite close to reality.

In other words, real relationships have been gamified.

In short, Lan Yu, who competed with Jian Yiyi in everything, also triggered "mobility recovery" more than ten times in one round.

In this way, after one round, there are only a few enemies left, and they are all still with residual health.

When it came to Li Lu, Qin Ze did not choose to use Li Lu to attack.

Just let Li Lu stand by and enter the next round.

The second round begins. There are only a few silk puppets left, and they are all far away from Gu Anxun and Li Lu.

They can only choose the nearest target to attack, Jian Yiyi.

Due to the attack, Jian Yiyi's health value changed from 100 points to 150 points.

Yes, Jian Yiyi's health has not decreased. On the contrary, with the blessing of Tattooed Xuanwu, there is an additional shield with a value of fifty percent of his health.

When it came time for Qin Ze to take action, Qin Ze used Jian Yiyi to harvest all the silk puppets.

The first level of the game ends here. The door was blocked by silk, and all the silk was gone.

New information appeared in Qin Ze's eyes.

[Congratulations, you have passed the first floor of the Silkworm Tower. You have three minutes to explore this floor. You can also choose to give up exploring and enter the second floor of the Silkworm Tower. 】

Qin Ze obviously did not intend to enter the second level directly.

Instead, he began to explore. But exploring made him feel more strenuous.

[You only have one chance to explore. You must choose one person to explore. 】

[Note that different people come here with different goals and different abilities, so the results of exploration are different. 】

[Some results may cause the game to become unplayable. 】

The game cannot be played. Qin Ze is not sure what this means, but he certainly does not want this to happen.

"According to the prompts, you will get the intelligence here through exploration, but the content of the intelligence determines the 'game plot'."

"I have to think about what each person is capable of and what they are here for."

…

…

"Are we going to... kill all the enemies?" Li Lu couldn't believe it.

In this battle, she, Lan Yu and Jian were killed one by one.

At this time, Li Lu was no longer afraid. In Qin Ze's eyes, Li Lu's morale was at full level.

But what Qin Ze saw was the perspective of the game.

From the real perspective, when the morale level is full, Li Lu's thinking is no longer affected by fear, and her confidence has skyrocketed.

She suddenly became excited, because no matter whether she had violated the taboo or not...

As long as you can come back alive from the realm of the old calendar, the calendar will definitely reward you tonight.

Lan Yu said:

"We can attack monsters, but the time period of the attack is not determined by us, nor is the route of action..."

"Jian Yiyi, you should have guessed what's happening now, right?"

Jian Yiyi smiled and said:

"Isn't this good? Although I'm not very good at playing games, I know that we and those monsters... are within the turn-based rules."

"And the rules most likely do not come with this tower."

Lan Yu nodded, he could clearly feel a force controlling him.

This power does not belong to this tower, because the tower must be exclusive to my group.

So Lan Yu and Jian Yiyi both thought of Qin Ze.

"It's really an interesting experience, but the enemies on the next level should be more difficult, right? But I believe he will lead us to find a way to defeat the enemies."

Jane smiled extremely happily and seemed to have found a very interesting way to pass her time.

Gu Anxun completely thought of another possibility.

"What I'm looking for is Qiao Wei. Maybe she has something to do with Qin Ze, but in the end I want to see Qiao Wei!"

"I feel that there is a powerful force controlling everyone here...including the tattooed man who is far stronger than me."

"Could it be that this power comes from Qiao Wei?"

Li Lu was thinking that it would be great if she could touch something.

In this way, we can find some clues here through the reporter's physique.

You can even predict some of what happens next.

In this way, I can also provide some help.

Jian Lan Yu, Gu An Xun, Li Lu.

The four people formed three thoughts.

Three different ideas determine the direction of exploration, which is the plot of the game "Dark Silkworm Tower".

Clues to defeat your enemies.

Clues to important people.

Silkworm Tower Clues.

Three lines were placed in front of Qin Ze, but Qin Ze didn't know the three thoughts.

He can only make the choices he needs most based on his understanding of the three parties.
