He pretends to be someone who is thousands of miles away, but he is unpretentious in details. He seems to be confident enough in his single-target abilities...
The smile on Qisi's face became sincere in an instant.
He knew that such people could easily reveal flaws in details and reveal some important information, so he squinted his eyes and showed some curiosity.
Sure enough, after receiving his gaze, Chang Xu explained in a cold voice: "This is the reward I got for completing the first dungeon perfectly."
Qisi understood and said with a smile: "I'm envious, the time-related props match this copy professionally."
Chang Xu didn't buy it. After two seconds, he stretched out his hand and said, "Give it back to me."
Qisi stopped when he saw that he was ready, and put the pocket watch that was still warm in his hand back into Chang Xu's hand.
Just by looking at the name, it sounds like a good thing. I really want it...but I can't help it. Chang Xu looks like he can fight well.
Although this guy's vigilance seemed a bit low, Qiss didn't think he could swallow other people's props in full view of the public.
He is very self-aware of his own force value and knows that in a head-on confrontation, he may not even be able to beat Ye Zi, let alone other people.
Chang Xu put away his pocket watch, looked down at Qisi's right hand, and said seriously: "If I guess correctly, what you are wearing on your right hand is a weapon-type prop, which was rarer and more practical in the early stage."
"Is that so?" Qisi was startled for a moment, then showed a shy smile after being seen through, "Brother Chang has good eyesight." He could see the hidden secrets of the bracelet at a glance.
To Chang Xu's ears, these words meant that he could tell where the props were at a glance.
He was not suspicious, nodded slightly, and walked down the stairs.
Seeing Chang Xu's back disappearing at the top of the stairs, Qisi gradually stopped smiling and his eyes darkened.
The bracelet he wore on his right hand was customized by someone in real life, so it couldn't be a prop for a weird game. However, Chang Xu categorically determined that it was a "weapon-like prop", so it couldn't be nonsense without any evidence.
It is very likely that real-life weapons cannot be brought in; under normal circumstances, the only items players can bring into the dungeon are the props obtained in the dungeon.
Think about it, if a player carries heavy firepower weapons and directly bulldozes the dungeon as soon as he comes in, no one will be able to play.
'Just, what's going on with my bracelet? Is there a bug in the game? '
Ziss thought of countless possibilities, but now is not the time to think about these questions - without enough information, any judgment will only preset the answer, which is a waste of time.
He turned his head to look at Ye Zi beside him, and said with a smile: "Chang Xu's suspicion has been cleared away, so I have to ask you: Ye Zi, why do you think Shen Ming will not die? Do you know something?"
Ye Zi's face froze, then he gritted his teeth and raised his hand, pointed at Qisi and said: "I finally understand, you and Chang Xu are probably in the same group! You two entered this dungeon together, I don't know what An is thinking!"
It was obvious that he was trying to overthrow his words. Qisi tilted his head and asked in an asking-for-advice manner, "Oh? You seem to know a lot about team formation?"
Ye Zi sneered: "What does it have to do with you if I know anything?"
"Stop quarreling over irrelevant issues." Zou Yan watched on the wall for a while, then became a good person at the right time, "We are all human beings, and our fundamental goal is to survive. Now that the matter has come to this, there is no use in blaming each other..."
"So Dr. Zou, what do you think of this matter?" Qis asked.
He showed a serious and persistent attitude, staring at Zou Yan without blinking: "If it is determined that the relationship between the players is hostile, then is Shen Ming the victim, or the perpetrator who shot himself in the foot? If By default, players should be united, so who is the first to doubt and doubt, disturbing everyone's peace?"
"I have always felt that a person who does not have a clear position and is on both ends of the spectrum is the most unstable factor. He can stab anyone in the back, right?"
Zou Yan seemed unable to hear the subtext of Qisi, and smiled bitterly: "It makes no sense to take sides and look at the long history of mankind. Poverty and wealth, wisdom and stupidity, men and women, any factor should not be a yardstick for dividing human groups. .”
"Everything in the world is never black and white, and the wrong process may also lead to the right ending. I always only do what I think is right."
Qisi knew that Zou Yan was not going to take a stand, so he couldn't help but tsk.
He said no more, stood crookedly like a boneless man, looked at Ye Zi with interest, and received the latter's cold eyes.
Except for the girl's true feelings at the beginning, she no longer looked at Shen Ming's body and had an expression on her face that said it had nothing to do with her.
Zou Yan, on the other hand, went back to the room, took out a sheet and covered the corpse, covering the horrific flesh and blood on the floor, which truly showed a kind of humanistic care.
It was getting late, so the players came down the stairs one after another, gathered at the long table on the first floor, and sat down one by one.
Even Lin Chen, who was scared to death, went downstairs before the bell rang again, carefully abiding by the rules on the system interface.
Shen Ming's absence made the atmosphere less lively than yesterday evening. Ye Zi glanced at the empty seats from time to time. Lin Chen quickly realized what had happened and pursed his lips.
The death of the most experienced veteran player among the six was undoubtedly a bad warning. And the suspicion that is gradually growing among players is an even worse sign.
In the silence, Zou Yan was the first to speak: "The first night has passed. Have everyone searched their own rooms? According to the experience of past dungeons, everyone should be able to get some clues to the world view. Let's exchange it now. .”
Her eyes showed compassion: "You have also seen that this dungeon is more difficult than imagined. We must work together to crack the worldview as soon as possible. Otherwise, by the third day, I don't know how many of us will survive."
Lin Chen was moved and opened his mouth to speak. But after seeing Qisi's half-smiling expression, he finally swallowed his saliva and swallowed what he wanted to say.
Qisi sighed and said, "I slept soundly last night. Doctor Zou, Brother Chang, you should know something, right?"
Zou Yan laughed and said, "I know it's unrealistic to ask you to be honest with each other, and I really want to tell you everything I know as an example, but unfortunately I was really fast asleep and had no idea what was going on."
She bit the word "really" hard, lowered her eyes, and shook her head slightly: "I guess Miss Anna may be targeting a certain gender, because neither Ye Zi nor I woke up..."
"...Looking at Xiao Lin's expression, it seems that he has woken up and has some opinions about what happened last night."
Qisi looked sideways at Lin Chen, who was surrounded by flaws from head to toe. Without suppressing the murderous intent in his eyes, he asked in a serious manner: "Classmate Lin Chen, you might as well say what you know. We won't doubt you."
Listening to Qi Sisenhan's tone, Lin Chen felt like he was flashing left and right in front of the King of Hell.
He blinked helplessly and whispered: "I don't know, I really don't know anything... I also slept soundly last night, really..."
Qisi turned his attention to Chang Xu who was silent at the right moment.
The police comrade was concise and honest in his words: "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you either."
During the discussion that made no progress, the hammer of the mechanical clock in the corner swung dullly and solemnly, striking six times in total.
Miss Anna, wearing a long black dress, walked out of the shadows, followed by a dummy-like butler.
Shi Shiran, a woman who was as thin as a ghost, walked to the main seat, sat down elegantly, looked around everyone with her lips curved, her eyes licking past them like half-rotted palm leaves after the rain.
While the butler was pushing the dining cart to arrange the table, her eyes lingered on Shen Ming's empty seat, then she covered her lips with a smile and said in a chanting tone: "My lovely guests, I hope you had a pleasant evening. "
The voice was extremely enthusiastic, like the polite words often spoken by hospitable hosts, but judging from the specific incident, it was full of schadenfreude.
Qisi thought of the tragic state of Shen Ming's body, and the smile on his face became more genuine: "It is indeed very pleasant. Thank you for your hospitality. I also appreciate your aesthetics. I just don't know if I can ask you a few questions?"
The other players were stunned for a moment, then raised their ears and listened attentively.
In the silence, Miss Anna nodded in greeting.
Chiss asked bluntly: "Miss Anna, you like roses very much, don't you?"
"Yes, roses, I like roses." Miss Anna repeated with a smile, "The most beautiful thing in the world is roses..."
"You like blooming roses and hate withered roses, don't you?"
There was a hint of sadness in Miss Anna's smile: "Yes, the rose will no longer be beautiful when it withers... I love beauty and hate ugliness..."
Qisi nodded in deep agreement and continued to ask: "You once had a beautiful older sister or younger sister, right?"
"Yes, I once had..." Miss Anna was halfway through her sentence, as if being strangled by some invisible force, she cut off the rest of the sentence.
Her expression suddenly became panicked, like a shadow creature suddenly illuminated by the sun, full of confusion and resentment, and she muttered unintelligible words.
The NPC will not deceive the player verbally, but can it not answer?
Qisi knew that he could not ask any more questions.
If some special event was triggered, he didn't know whether others would die, and he felt that he would not survive.
The breakfast in the castle is relatively simple, consisting of wheat bread, wine and apples, which is a very unpalatable way of eating for the players here.
Originally, the atmosphere was stagnant and depressing because of the death and the chain of suspicion that surfaced. Coupled with what Qiss asked Miss Anna, the NPC always had a ferocious look on his face, and most of the players couldn't eat the breakfast in front of them.
Ziss has never been picky about food. No matter how unpalatable the breakfast in the dungeon is, it is still better than the food he messed up in reality.
He cut the bread into small pieces with a knife and fork, put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully. He occasionally picked up the wine glass and took a few sips, which was particularly leisurely.
Chang Xu, who was sitting opposite, was also eating meticulously, mouthing like a hamster without stopping. Maybe he really thought the breakfast at the manor tasted good.
The behavior of the two people undoubtedly had a good motivating effect, and everyone picked up their knives and forks and started playing.
After finishing his breakfast, Chiss picked up a napkin, wiped his mouth, and stuffed it into his pocket without leaving a trace.
The napkin Shun had left last night was scrapped on Shen Ming's body. It was just the right time to replenish the new napkin.
He grabbed an apple, said "Sorry", then stood up and walked towards the stairs, standing on the edge of the shadow and winking at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was on pins and needles, looking at Qisi's urging eyes, although he was still a little hesitant and apprehensive, he followed him after all.
Ziss walked ahead without saying a word, went up to the second floor, and stopped in front of the huge mechanical clock.
Presuming that the people downstairs could no longer hear him, he turned to look at Lin Chen and said in a deep voice: "There is one thing I forgot to tell you. There is a copy protection mechanism in the weird game, and a certain number of players will die. After that, the remaining players can pass the level safely and get more rewards.”
He relayed the information Ye Zi said, and then sighed lowly: "I suspect that among the five of us, some of us will try to assassinate others."
