The environment of the mission hall is similar to a huge and luxurious church. The retro decoration uses red and black as the theme, presenting a grotesque aesthetic.
On the walls of the hall, there are many display screens, one after another like paintings displayed in a gallery.
It's just that what's on display in the No Return Hotel are not paintings, but terrifying replicas.
A display screen represents a copy of the game. If you want to enter the copy, you only need to write down the number of the copy, and then enter this number on the personal panel.
Or just choose random.
Lin Ling admired these copies as she walked. In Lin Ling's eyes, the covers of these copies looked like paintings with a horror theme.
Finally, Lin Ling stopped in front of a display with a clown doll and a train model on the cover.
"Hell Train?"
This is interesting.
In the previous world, Lin Ling had taken several trains. Although her memory was a little fuzzy because it was so long ago, Lin Ling could still remember that the space on the train was very small.
Can this also be used as a game copy?
Lin Ling was a little curious, so she wrote down the numbers, then raised her feet and walked forward again.
A few seconds after Lin Ling left, the two men walked to the place where Lin Ling was standing before, took out a pen and wrote down the number of the copy, and then quickly chased in the direction where Lin Ling left.
Afterwards, whenever Lin Ling paused for a few seconds in front of any display screen, or looked at it a few more times, the two men would write it down.
Lin Ling didn't seem to notice it, walking and stopping all the way.
The two men following Lin Ling looked at the notebooks in their hands that had recorded hundreds of copy numbers, and murmured quietly.
"Why do I feel like this girl is not a newcomer?"
Which new family's first visit to the mission hall is like visiting their own back garden? !
What's more, Lin Ling is wearing a brand-name white sportswear that doesn't look cheap on Blue Star. No matter how you look at it, she looks like a pampered rich daughter from a wealthy family.
Even if he is a newcomer, he is the kind of dodder-like newcomer who will just cry and hold himself back as soon as he enters the dungeon.
It can't be 7463783 who got more than 120,000 points in the first copy.
"Do you care if she is a newcomer? We just need to listen to the boss and write down all the copies she has read."
As he spoke, the man wrote down another copy.
Most of the new players who enter the game copy of Thriller World for the first time will choose to go back to Blue Star to rest after clearing the level. Only a very small number of new players will choose to go to the Grand Hotel or not.
When new player 7463783 became the first player on the newcomer list with 120,000 points and squeezed into the thousand player rankings, he attracted the attention of all guilds.
The new hot list and the Thousand People list are completely different lists.
The new player list is a list of new players based on hotel time.
All new players who entered the dungeon that month will appear on it. There will be a list of hundreds of pages every month, ranked based on points.
The Thousand Players List is a list ranked based on all the players' current points.
It is similar in nature to the Forbes rich list on Blue Star. The players who can appear on this list are all the elite among the elite players.
Before player 7463783 did not appear, the score of the last player on the thousand list was 124998.
In other words, the new player 7463783 knocked the veteran player off the thousand list by one point.
Most players are watching the excitement and feel that the new players are lucky enough to be on the Thousand Players list.
But any keen player will know it.
Although the old player only has one less point than the new player, the number of dungeons cleared by the old player is 253.
Although the veteran players must have spent a lot of points during this period, it was enough to let them all know how strong the new players were.
If nothing else happens, it will only be a matter of time before new players become number one on the list.
Every guild wants to pull this player into their own guild, and even provides many preferential treatment just for new players to join their guild.
And as long as new players came out of the elevator today, they were secretly watched by people from various guilds, trying to find 7463783 and drag them to their own guilds.
And Lin Ling...
It was an accident.
Because in the eyes of others, Lin Ling, who was wearing a mask, seemed a bit unfamiliar, but because of her famous brand and the aura of a wealthy daughter, everyone was the first to reject the possibility that she was the newcomer 7463783.
Player 7463783, who was able to get 120,000 points, was seen by various guilds as having either a high IQ or a high level of force, but not a pampered daughter like Lin Ling.
The boss of the two men would rather kill them by mistake than let them go, so he sent them to follow Lin Ling.
The mission hall was very large, and Lin Ling walked for more than half an hour without reaching the end.
Just when the two men were muttering about how long Lin Ling would continue shopping, Lin Ling suddenly disappeared in front of their eyes.
"Where are the people?"
"It's strange. You were still here just now? Why did you disappear in the blink of an eye?"
The two men searched everywhere but found no one.
Just when they were about to give up and go back to explain to their boss with hundreds of copy numbers in their hands, a gentle voice of inquiry suddenly came from behind them.
"Are you looking for me?"
The two men turned around suddenly and saw the person they were looking for standing behind them.
The silver rose pattern on the white mask is very beautiful when reflected by the crystal chandelier above her head. The long black hair is draped behind the girl like a waterfall. The special mask prevents the two men from even seeing clearly the eyes of the girl under the mask.
Before they could react, Lin Ling raised a hand and snapped his fingers.
"Click——"
The two men's expressions became dazed, and they passed Lin Ling and left the place.
By the time the two of them came to their senses, they had returned to the guild and stood in front of them the guild leader who looked impatient.
"I said, did you listen to me again?!"
The president was very angry. As soon as the two men came back, they stood in front of him like nothing, saying nothing, and refused to respond no matter how they were called.
Before the two men's brains could react, their bodies responded conditionedly: "We are listening!"
"Okay, okay, give me the copy list, you can go back first."
Seeing that these two people were not very smart, the president sent them away after taking the list.
The two of them said "oh" and turned around to leave.
When he walked out of the guild, the short-haired man slapped himself on the head.
"Huh? That's not right! Didn't we follow that girl just now? When did we come back? Why don't I have any impression at all?"
Here, after getting the list, the president handed it to the captain of one of the teams without even looking at it, asking him to stare at these copies. Once someone enters, follow them immediately to verify whether the other party is a new player 7463783 .
"Okay, President! Promise to complete the task!"
The team leader thought there were only a dozen dungeons at most, but he didn't expect that the densely packed dungeon numbers after he opened them made him take a breath.

[Welcome the level 27 player 'Head of the Head is Dark', the level 17 player 'Red Cloud Head', the level 17 player 'Strawberries Are Not Sweet', the level 17 player 'I don't want to take medicine', the level 16 player 'My Mom' You haven't hit me in three days'...Level 1 player '7463783' came to the "Hell Train" instance. 】
"Passengers taking train K748, please note that the train is about to enter the station. Passengers taking this train are asked to take their luggage and go to ticket gate 14 to check in. Ticket checking will start in ten minutes."
"Passengers taking train K748, please note that the train is about to enter the station..."
As soon as the players who entered the dungeon regained consciousness, they heard the sound of broadcasts in the station and the sounds of other people talking in the bustling surroundings.
"Ma Dan, what time is it!"
The man who was woken up complained unhappily, and then woke up the baby next to him. The baby's cry instantly echoed through the entire waiting hall.
"Baby, be good, don't cry, don't cry..."
The young mother coaxed her child, while the man wearing a gold watch behind him spoke loudly on the phone.
"I'm already at the station. I've bought you all the things you want. Okay, okay, I'll hang up now if I have anything else to do..."
The place where the players are located is a wide waiting hall, with rows of iron seats filled with people. They are standing in the middle of the hall, with many people around them. The sweet voices on the radio came from all directions, waking up some passengers who were sleeping on their seats and making the already quiet waiting hall even more noisy.
Some passengers on this train took their luggage and got up, went to the ticket gate and waited in line.
The sweet voice on the radio repeated the announcement three times. Lin Ling, who was standing in the crowd, looked at the ticket in her hand. The train number on the ticket was the K748 number on the radio.
She glanced at the other players standing in front of her, then turned around and walked out of the waiting hall, leaving in the opposite direction to the ticket gate.
The broadcast prompts that ticket checking will begin in ten minutes, but the house manager in the live broadcast room has not yet told the rules and tasks of this copy game, and for a while no player made any move.
When a few players saw Lin Ling's leaving figure, they just glanced at it and then looked away. They regarded Lin Ling as an NPC in the dungeon and didn't pay much attention to it.
The players who were thinking about what tasks they would have this time did not notice that the waiting hall became much quieter.
Especially where Lin Ling walked, the voices of the passengers became softer, as if they were afraid of disturbing others.
Lin Ling walked to the entrance of the waiting hall but did not go out.
Outside the waiting hall is the ticket office. There are several dozing staff members sitting inside the ticket window, and there is an outstanding employee display board hanging next to it, which is densely packed with outstanding employees in the station.
After standing at the door for a while, Lin Ling turned around and went to the small supermarket next to her. He hesitantly went in to talk to the proprietress who was knitting a sweater.
The passengers who had been paying attention to Lin Ling seemed to want to step forward and hold Lin Ling, but before they had time to act, Lin Ling had already walked in.
A passenger who was on the phone quickly walked away.
This supermarket is about 40 square meters. The cashier is at the entrance of the supermarket. There is a curly-haired middle-aged woman knitting a sweater sitting inside. She seems to be the proprietress of this supermarket.
"Auntie, have you ever seen a girl with long hair and wearing a white sweater?"
Inside the checkout counter, the proprietress who was knitting a sweater heard someone interrupting her knitting. Especially when she smelled a stench that was unique to dirty humans, the already bad-tempered proprietress immediately became irritable, and her words were the quintessence of Chinese culture.
"Look! What are you looking at! Didn't you see me—"
But halfway through the words, when he met a pair of beautiful eyes, the next even more unpleasant words got stuck in his throat.
This...where did this fairy come from?
The landlady looked at Lin Ling and didn't recover for a long time. Even the human smell that she found unacceptable was ignored.
Lin Ling, who was stared at by the landlady, felt a little embarrassed and apologized to the landlady.
"Sorry to bother you..."
When the landlady came back to her senses and saw Lin Ling looking like she was about to leave, she hurriedly put down the knitting needle in her hand and stood up to grab Lin Ling's wrist.
After realizing that this seemed a bit abrupt, he let go of his hand again and asked Lin Ling gently with a smile.
"No interruption, no interruption, what did you just say? Did you ask me if I saw a long-haired girl wearing a white sweater? Who is she to you?"
"Yes..."
"She is my cousin. She said that this station was recruiting people and asked me to come here and wait for her, but I waited for several hours and she didn't come."
Lin Ling smiled shyly, with a gentle and gentle temperament about her, and she did not complain even after waiting for several hours.
The landlady took up the grievances for Lin Ling.
I'm so young, I actually let the fairy wait here for several hours!
If she had such a cool cousin, how could she be willing to let her wait for several hours in this cold station?
The look in the landlady's eyes when she looked at Lin Ling instantly became distressed. She stood up and walked out of the checkout counter, took down the most expensive folding chair sold next to her, opened it and placed it next to Lin Ling.
"You must be tired of standing after waiting for so long, right? You sit here for a while, and I'll get you something to eat."
As the boss lady was about to go to the canteen to cook, Lin Ling stopped her.
"No need to bother Auntie, I'm not hungry. I just want to ask Auntie if you have seen my cousin, or does my cousin work at this station? My mobile phone was accidentally broken and I can't contact her. I'm afraid I misremembered the time or the wrong station."
After waiting for several hours, the little fairy still blamed herself. The boss lady really had the urge to scold the cousin at this moment.
"What's your cousin's name?"
"My cousin's name is Zhou Mei."
"Zhou Mei..." The landlady suppressed her anger and thought carefully, "It seems that there is indeed a person named Zhou Mei at this station, but it seems that the train she works on has not returned yet."
"Ah?" Lin Ling was stunned for a moment, "But my cousin said..."
Before she finished speaking, the proprietress of the small supermarket interrupted her.
