Wu Hui saves people from monsters very simply. But these civilians did not know much as he thought. It just suddenly turns dark and all kinds of monsters appear.
But considering the part of the time circle in the introduction of the evil god, the city is connected end to end within seven days, which means that it will experience a reincarnation every seven days.
So maybe a lot has happened, and even this person has died many times, but he won't remember it.
What about us? Have you cycled through the city many times? Or will we continue to have our own memories after seven days?
Seven days is actually quite a long time for a game. So far, Wu Hui and the others have not spent more than three days. Judging from the average length statistics on the forum, a game takes about two and a half days.
For players, it is relatively fast-paced. Playwrights who like the long game seem to be mainly responsible for setting up a backstory in the game.
The rules seem to be decided by card players and gladiators.
Of course, the story background itself is also very important. For example, the two forces of the evil god and the human defense line this time are players that can strive to take advantage of them.
Li Xiaoyue: "Have we been here before, during the qualifiers..."
"Yes. I remember that we joined the human defense line and became a member of the Watch Army, but the city didn't seem so dark at that time." Li Xiaojing remembered it more clearly than her sister.
The Human Defense Line is the actual controller of the human government in this world, and is also the owner of extraordinary power. There are three types of people internally, namely watchmen, investigators, and inheritors.
The former is actually an army, but uses some rune weapons engraved with special marks. Well trained and large. Individual combat effectiveness is average, but after gathering, advanced players may have to hide away.
From the beginning, investigators were pure mortals, relying on their wisdom to decipher the mysteries of the enemy. Each investigator had to find a way to steal something from the evil god to strengthen himself. Later, a legendary investigator wrote down a spell that belonged to the human defense line. "Human Poetry" has a little bit of systematic extraordinary power. What they use more internally are actually some special props with the power of evil gods.
The inheritors are a group of scholars. In this grammatical world, knowledge itself brings danger, and you can easily go crazy if you see something you shouldn't see. They hold a large amount of magic and harmful information, but at the same time they must ensure that the information of civilization is passed on. There are libraries of inheritors all over the world.
Was the evil god also created by the Black Death? It doesn’t quite feel like its style. However, there are also cases where seal beasts are created to destroy local humans. Perhaps the playwright has a hand in this.
After rescuing a group of civilians, Wu Hui successfully interrogated the general topography of the city. Then he started to move, preparing to make contact with the human defense line in the city.
Investigator branches, in this world, are like police stations in every city.
Of course, most of them are trainee investigators, and the only things they have that can cause harm to evil gods and monsters are marked bullets. Those special items with the power of evil gods cannot be used by ordinary people.
It can be said that the investigator organization in this world also has the work of the SCP Foundation. It will store all kinds of extraordinary items in daily life.
Wu Hui came to the city's investigator branch.
The city suddenly fell into darkness, and the investigators were very busy. They need to figure out the reasons, map out various situations in the city, and count the casualties.
It can be said that not only is the light gone, but their conventional communication equipment is basically paralyzed. While losing contact with the outside world, there are only three places in the city where special runes can be used: the Heritage Library, the Watch Army Barracks, and the Investigator Branch. Communication equipment for communication.
"Sacrifice should be a camp choice. If you sacrifice to the evil god, you can get many special effects. But you will definitely become the enemy of the human defense line. If you choose not to sacrifice, you will have the opportunity to cooperate with the human defense line." Wu Hui glanced at : "That instrument over there is specially used to scan the evil god's power."
However, the instrument is still ringing now, and it is obvious that the entire city is now filled with the power of the evil god. But they can set parameters to exclude the interference of darkness.
The power of the five evil gods shrouded the city together. Quite surprising to be honest. Although Wu Hui has never really seen the evil gods, he still compared them to super players based on some indirect performances.
This game has just started. In more than an hour, both sides have already determined the basic strategy.
Suddenly a radio sound rang in my ears.
"The roads are frozen to death."
Li Xiaojing: "Isn't this the setting of the second game I played?"
That game was also set in a city shrouded in fog. But there is no darkness, no evil gods, and no human defenses. The map is a reduced version of Evergreen City.
In that game, you will receive a broadcast every time your enemy goes to a special place. For example, when you walk into a school, the message "Knowledge is the ladder of human progress" will be broadcast. When you walk to the most luxurious hospital in the city, you will hear "the poor are not accepted".
However, walking on the street does not seem to trigger this setting.
"Afraid that we won't fight while wandering around the city." Wu Hui quickly realized the role of this mechanism: "This city is quite big. And it's so dark that it will be difficult for both parties to meet."
Ren Yin: "Stop chatting, the investigators have noticed us."
Enlisting the help of local NPCs is an important strategy for everyone. For this reason, they gave up the evil god sacrifice function that can take effect quickly. The Cocoon team over there has probably used their souls in the most critical areas to make up for their shortcomings.
But they are just getting started.
It's not easy to gain the trust of an NPC within a day or two. But if it's too late and seven days have passed, the trust you gained will have no meaning.
Time is still very urgent for them.
"We have rescued so many civilians and killed many monsters on the way. No matter what they say, at least they will not attack us." Wu Hui pushed up his glasses.
Ren Yin: "Are you sure you want to negotiate? I think you may make the other party angry."
When Wu Hui discusses things, he basically talks about interest analysis and needs. But when communicating with unfamiliar forces, you cannot assume that the other party is a rational person. so……
"Let Li Xiaoyue go up and give it a try." Ren Yin suggested.
This is the most ordinary girl among them. And she is proficient in mental abilities, which can make people relax their vigilance towards her silently. It is indeed the best choice for communication. She also communicated with the human defense line during the qualifiers.
"Well, Xiaoyue, come on."
