Cheng Ye didn't extend his hand and said calmly: "This is a dungeon that is sure to earn points, so why bother to meet each other head-to-head."
The team leader seemed to have heard some big joke. He burst out laughing and said to the younger brother next to him: "Did you hear what he said? You're guaranteed to earn points?"
"Brothers." The team leader approached Cheng Ye and said sullenly: "Who wants to earn points with you? Don't you know that the smaller the number of people, the higher the points we will get?"
Cheng Ye remained calm: "It won't do you any good if the fish dies and the net breaks."
"Yes, there is no benefit." The team leader stood back to his position, imitating Cheng Ye's words in a sly manner, and then made an exaggerated expression and raised his voice: "But what should I do? There is only so much food, brothers are hungry. So hungry!”
"Yeah, brothers are hungry!"
"We just want to eat more, what's wrong?"
"Brother is so kind, he will definitely share the food with us!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
"......"
Cheng Ye looked at the smiling people in front of him indifferently, knowing that he had nothing to say to them. These people... would not give up until they achieved their goals.
but.......
He said softly and slowly: "We are all players, and we must have some means to save our lives. Since we will choose to play this dungeon again, we must be well prepared..."
Cheng Ye paused, looked at the leader and continued, "What I mean is, if we really fight, a few of your brothers will die."
As soon as these words came out, the leader's smile froze.
He put away his exaggerated smile, looked gloomy, and stared at Cheng Ye with interest: "It's quite interesting."
Cheng Ye's words were for centrifugation. No matter who he is, he is an individual first and an organization second.
As long as we are human, we have the urge to live.
This is not a time when the country is facing a serious crisis and should be unanimously reported to the outside world.
Just for food, let your brothers die...
Anyone would feel uncomfortable.
Their younger brothers looked stupid. If they hadn't thought of it, he would remind them and plant this seed in their hearts...
[In view of the general environment,
As long as there is a gap in people's hearts, there will be internal problems.
At that time, it is time for the team leader to think carefully about how to deal with the problem of disunity.
"You are right. It is true that many people in this dungeon played in teams. We are not surprised. It is not impossible for you to hurt several of our brothers in a fight..."
"...But, it's the third day now, and the dungeon will end in two days."
The leader said with a smile.
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows slightly: "So?"
"So, even if there are four of you, oh, no..." The leader looked at the inside of the room: "What if there is still a loser who has become a dream demon and tried his best to injure several of our brothers?"
The team leader laughed sadly again: "Back in the main city, all injuries have recovered as before, right?"
Cheng Ye frowned slightly, yes, he was right.
As long as you don't die, all injuries will be restored as before when the copy is over.
There are thirteen of them, and it is actually very difficult to kill them as long as there is a wheel battle.
"Boss." Suddenly a team member took a step forward and whispered something in the leader's ear.
The leader's expression changed, and then he checked Cheng Ye and the others again, and frowned slightly: "Not bad, interesting."
The team leader grinned: "You are beyond my expectation. How about this? If you take the initiative to hand over the food, we won't hurt you and we will keep a balance with each other. How about this?"
Cheng Ye looked at the team leader, then slowly shook his head
Shaking his head: "Of course... that won't work."
"Boss, stop talking nonsense to them and just fight them."
"It's just that I haven't moved my fists all night, and my hands are itchy."
"Yes, yes, just a few of them want to hurt me? That's nonsense!"
"..."
The people behind the leader were all gearing up and eager to try.
Seeing the excitement, Xiao Ming didn't think it was a big deal. He stuck out his head and suddenly said: "You guys seem to be a bunch of reckless people."
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly became quiet.
Xiao Ming's body looked very thin, small, and weak. He looked like he could cry for a long time with just one punch. I don't know how he had the courage to say these words.
"You XXX, I will operate on you first!" Someone couldn't help it anymore and rushed forward, grabbing Xiao Ming's collar.
Xiao Ming didn't panic at all and smiled at the visitor nonchalantly.
The visitor was irritated by his attitude, raised his fist, and was about to hit Xiao Ming in the face the next second.
But Xiao Ming had no intention of dodge.
Cheng Ye frowned and looked at Xiao Ming, wondering what he wanted to do.
From the beginning of deliberately opening the door to provoke, to now deliberately provoking, what exactly does he want to do?
Time seems to have stopped at this moment.
Cheng Ye didn't move, and neither did Chu Yue or Ah Hui.
They stood behind and watched.
Last night, when Cheng Ye tested Xiao Ming's words, Ah Hui and Chu Yue already understood that Xiao Ming had never downloaded this copy.
They knew Cheng Ye's character very well, so they understood once Cheng Ye tested him.
But since Xiao Ming said that he had done it, his brain was different from normal people, so no one bothered about this, so naturally no one questioned him.
But now, I really don’t understand why Xiao Ming did this.
Deliberately looking for a fight? Why?
At this moment, a voice came from the distance: "Stop!"
It's the group on the second floor who come out to stop every time they grab food.
But how could the "Snatcher" stop his violence just because of a word?
The fist was pumped down.
Xiao Ming's face suddenly swelled up.
Xiao Ming stumbled and took several steps backward.
There was always a maniacal smile on his face that was incomprehensible. He stretched out his hand to wipe away the blood on his lips, smiled like crazy, and then raised his right middle finger.
"You fucked me!" The man became even more angry and rushed in, wanting to continue beating Xiao Ming.
But the people on the second floor have already arrived. Their bodies are covered with scars and they have been beaten frequently in the past two days, but they still risked their lives to stop the "snatchers" from committing violence.
After several struggles, the "snatcher" was finally blocked from the door.
Xiao Ming still poked his head and taunted in a "cheeky" way, as if he didn't care about life or death at all.
"Why is it you again?" The team leader looked at the bruised visitor and seemed to have a headache: "Let me tell you, you have already used all your life-saving tools yesterday. Do you really want to die?"
The people on the second floor had tattered clothes and exposed blood stains, but their backs were straight and they had a righteous look on their faces: "We are all compatriots. We couldn't help ourselves when we entered this game. We should help each other instead of killing each other."
"There isn't enough food for everyone, so you insist on robbing everyone of their food. You are committing a crime and killing someone!"
The leader had a headache. He pressed his temples and said patiently, "Do you really think we won't kill you?"
The people on the second floor kept their expressions and eyes unchanged, and said firmly: "Even if we are killed, we will do what we should do."
The team leader grinned and glanced at the four people who had tried on the second floor with disdain, saying in a contemptuous tone: "If it hadn't been for the time, I would have killed you. Fortunately, you had life-saving tools yesterday, otherwise our plan would have been ruined. , it’s really not a pity to die.”
"You want to die so much, but just wait. Tomorrow, I will start with you, one, two, three,
Four, everyone must die. "
The team leader viciously counted the people on the second floor, and then said in a warning voice: "I'm not afraid that you will know, I am definitely going to rob the food, and it's useless for you to stop me."
"If you insist on stopping us at all costs, then I will break your legs, pick off your tendons, and make you unable to move, waiting to die!"
The people on the second floor were not afraid of life or death, and still stood upright, with firm stubbornness on their faces, and no fear at all.
"Let's go!" The leader was too lazy to continue to pester, and waved his hand, ready to continue robbing the locals of food.
When the people on the second floor saw this, even though they were injured, they were still staggering and ready to step forward to stop him.
Cheng Ye couldn't stand it anymore and stopped the leader on the second floor: "You are too seriously injured. Even if you step forward, you won't be able to stop them."
The leader turned back and glanced at Cheng Ye, with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "Even if we can't stop it, can we just stand here and do nothing?"
"But what else can you do besides making unnecessary sacrifices?" Cheng Ye dissuaded him calmly.
It's just an egg hitting a stone. It's really impossible to defeat it in its current form.
And it seems that the opponent will not attack the player for some reason for the time being. This is an opportunity for them to make corrections.
It's better to take this time to think about what to do next and see if we can reverse things.
"You just heard it. They deliberately snatched the food. If there really wasn't enough food, the amount they snatched on the first day would have been enough for them." The leader on the second floor sounded heartbroken and angry, and his eyes were already red.
He genuinely felt sorry for those Aboriginal people.
This is the end of the world, life is already difficult, and there is no shortage of food...
"I know." Cheng Ye lowered his eyes: "They have their own reasons for doing this, but we can discuss it before making a plan. There are thirteen of them, four of you, and five of us. The total is still less than them. What's more, They seem to have a lot of fighting experience, and going head-to-head is never a good plan.
What's more, they can't finish the food they robbed at one time. We just have to discuss a plan and then snatch the food back and return it to the aborigines. "
Cheng Ye analyzed it unhurriedly, unfolding the situation and trying to stabilize the emotions of the people on the second floor.
Perhaps it was Cheng Ye's always calm mood and his calm voice that finally made the people on the second floor calm down.
They looked at Cheng Ye deeply: "Will you also help the indigenous people?"
"...even if they are just a piece of data?"
Cheng Ye smiled dullly: "They are not data, they are flesh and blood people like us."
The leader on the second floor had his eyes flashed slightly, hesitated for a moment, then relaxed completely, and sighed softly: "Yes, they are human beings too."
Cheng Ye was not surprised that other players discovered this fact.
This is not something difficult to discover. As long as you download the copy a few more times and think about it a few more times, you will know the truth.
So, are the people on the second floor really working so hard just to protect the indigenous people?
Cheng Ye stepped aside and invited humbly and politely: "Since we have the same purpose now, why not come in and talk in detail?"
The people on the second floor didn't hesitate much. They nodded after thinking about it, and then walked into the room one after another.
As soon as the door was closed, the sound of cursing, shouting and crying outside seemed to be much quieter.
Those people's purpose seems to be entirely to target the indigenous people, and the player seems to be the last link in their plan.
Therefore, even if they beat the people on the second floor like this, they did not kill them.
The room was very small, and when nine people came in at once, they felt like they couldn't sit down.
They simply squeezed around the bed and each found their own place.
"Is this...not able to resist the dream demon?" The leader on the second floor found Dudu and asked with some heartache.
He seems to be a sentimental person. He feels heartbroken when he sees aborigines being robbed of their food. He feels sad when he sees strangers trapped in nightmares.
Difficulties can also cause heartache.
There was always a look of compassion on his face for all the people in the world.
Cheng Ye nodded: "It doesn't matter, we will also enter the Dream Demon tomorrow and try to find what he is missing."
The person on the second floor frowned slightly, and then said: "Let me introduce myself, I am Liu Jianjun, and these are my brothers, Liu Jianguo, Chen Hongqi, and Wu Shengli."
Cheng Ye was a little surprised when he heard their names.
These names... seem to carry some kind of historical memory.
Liu Jianjun seemed to see what Cheng Ye was thinking, and he smiled slightly: "You are right, we were born in the 1970s in China, and we were involved in the game very early."
Cheng Ye's eyes widened when he heard this.
No, wasn’t this game released in 2060? Why! Why get involved with people from the seventies?
Is it that the people opposite are all in their nineties, or...
Impossible, how can a person in his nineties have such good physical strength.
Although they were injured, when they fought against the "Snatcher" just now, their moves and force were no problem.
With such a physique, he can only be in his fifties at most?
Perhaps seeing Cheng Ye's doubts, Liu Jianjun continued: "We entered the game in 2020. When we entered, we were in our forties and used to be soldiers, so our physical fitness was better. Originally, we were in our twenties. We are all brothers, but... the game has taken too long, we have to part ways with each other, and now there are only four of us brothers left."
Liu Jianjun's words were so shocking that Cheng Ye was speechless for a long time.
What is this game about, and how long has it been around?
In Cheng Ye’s memory, [Second World] was launched on June 1, 2060. It was said to be for children to celebrate the festival, but it turned out to be a horror game. In the early days of its launch, many people ridiculed it, saying that this game was for children. Prepared by my friends.
It is an entertainment game for adult babies like them.
If they entered the game in 2020, what will happen to the game in 2060?
Parallel time and space, or what?
Seeing Cheng Ye's reaction, Liu Jianjun didn't seem surprised. He said slowly: "I only know that this is a game because I entered the game from behind."
"There were no games when we were kids, just dance halls and the like. Later, video games came, and they also had cards inserted into them."
"To be honest, it was very dreamy when I first came in. I always felt like I was dead. This was just a dream."
"But as time goes by, or maybe there is no such thing as time. Anyway, our brothers seem to have been living here for decades..."
"I don't have any culture, so I make you laugh."
Cheng Ye looked at Liu Jianjun with a complicated expression, and then asked repeatedly: "How many years do you think you have been in the game?"
"A few decades." Liu Jianjun didn't understand what he meant.
Cheng Ye's face was solemn, and many questions were popping up in his heart.
Is the passage of time in the game 1:1 with the real world?
They have been in the game for decades, and the outside world has just passed for decades.
But, that's not right.
There are many people who have been playing games for more than ten years, and they are also people of their own era. Before this, they have clearly determined that the time in the game flows much faster than the real time.
what on earth is it?
"Can I ask you how you got into this game?" Cheng Ye asked eagerly.
"Enter this game." Liu Jianjun seemed to be lost in memories, his eyes narrowed slightly and his eyes were blurred.
"We have a gathering of veterans, one platoon, 26 brothers. We served in XX, so we wanted to return to the place..."
"...Yes, that was the day when we brothers entered this game together."
