Relying on his cleverness that can crush ordinary people, Chen Shuihong has been able to survive until now, but the problem is that this is not the answer in the long run, right? If props are always disabled in future missions, what should I do if I lack the means to save my life? And this was the reason that made him frown and feel uneasy at this moment. After all, there is a saying that goes, if you always walk by the river, how can you avoid getting your shoes wet?
As mentioned above, after completing the hide-and-seek mission and returning to the train from the mission world, Chen Shuihong, a semi-senior, gradually became concerned about the issue of banning props. He believed that banning props was detrimental to the performer, but in fact?
In fact, any veteran with rich experience, or anyone who can see through the deep nature of supernatural missions, will not worry or care. Not only will they not worry or care, on the contrary, these people will even wish that props will be disabled in future missions. ! ! !
As for the reason?
The reason involves the curse rule, an implicit rule that He Fei discovered long ago and told everyone, that is...
Curse has always strictly divided the difficulty of supernatural tasks, and always takes into account the overall balance. In order to balance the difficulty of the tasks as much as possible, Curse allows the performer to use props for tasks with higher difficulty, while conversely, the performer is not allowed to use props for tasks with lower difficulty. Use props.
what does that mean?
This means that in the eyes of the curse, all tasks that prohibit props are not very difficult. As long as the difficulty is not high, even if the props are disabled, the executor still has a high chance of completing it. On the contrary, once a certain task prohibits props, everyone will Instead, you will be alert and nervous.
Because he boarded the train late, Chen Shuihong didn't know about this, so he sat alone in the living room feeling uneasy. If the fat man's current thoughts were known to other senior people, everyone would laugh out loud.
Of course, whether you will laugh out loud is only related to the senior person. It has nothing to do with Tang Meng, who is currently staying in the room hesitating, but has a slight connection with Chen Shuihong next door. The reason why I use a little description is that The middle-aged fat man was thinking about the props, and the female doctor was also thinking about the props. But unlike Chen Shuihong, who was thinking wildly and making misjudgments, Tang Meng's thoughts were obviously not right or wrong, because she was considering whether to exchange the props. .
As a new beauty who is both gentle, beautiful and of excellent conduct, there is no doubt that Tang Meng has received extra care from many male seniors. Excluding Chen Xiaoyao, who is purely obscene and harassing, Peng Hu admires her very much. Ever since he heard that Tang Meng had played a key role in the manor mission, Peng Hu no longer spoke to Tang Meng in the polite and obvious tone earlier. He was less cautious and more casual in his communication. He had obviously regarded Tang Meng as his companion. Peng Hu was treated like this, and He Fei was treated the same way. On the second day after returning to the train, He Fei had a special talk with her. During the conversation, He Fei revealed many secret problems that the female doctor had not known when he first boarded the train. , said a lot of things that only experienced people can understand. Through the conversation, Tang Meng gained a lot. In addition to learning about the past of the seventh team, he also knew that the train was on track and was now heading towards a place called hell. The mysterious place of reincarnation station.
In addition, He Fei also reminded Tang Meng before leaving, reminding her that she could redeem the props.
Indeed, from the time he first boarded the train to this moment, Tang Meng has experienced two missions. Although they are all normal-level difficulties, they are still enough for him to exchange for a cheap prop. After all, everyone knows that if he wants to To survive longer in the cursed space, the executor must exchange props for a supernatural prop that can be used to save lives in dangerous moments.
What Tang Meng is currently thinking about is exactly the issue of prop exchange!
……………
Since the executors are all ordinary mortals from the real world, in order to leave a glimmer of hope for the executors, Curse has added a prop system. Props are called supernatural props, which refer to certain items that have special functions or can resist monsters to a certain extent. Props There are many types and different functions. They can be divided into two categories: special props and conventional props.
Let’s talk about special props first. Special props refer to items that do not exist in the prop cabinet. Non-existence means that they cannot be obtained, at least they cannot be obtained directly by consuming survival points. The only way to obtain them can only rely on the mission world or the real world. By chance, the chance is no less than winning a lottery ticket, and the uncertainties are very large. Because of this, except for a few people in the team who have special types, the main source of props for the executors still relies on the prop exchange system, that is, , conventional props.
Conventional props undoubtedly refer to props that can be seen and redeemed in the prop cabinet. They still include two major categories, namely sustainable props and consumable props. Each of the two categories has its own pros and cons. Compared to Sustainable-use props and consumable props are slightly stronger in terms of functional power. The disadvantage is that they cannot be used for a long time and often disappear after exhausting the number of uses. Sustainable-use props do not have the disadvantage of disappearing, but the use effect is It is inferior to consumable props. It is also worth mentioning that in order to prevent the executor from relying too much on the props, the curse also adds a limit to the number of props that can be carried. Whether it is a sustainable prop or a consumable prop, each executor A maximum of 3 items can be exchanged, and more than 3 items cannot be exchanged. Note, special props are not included in this list.
Of course, there are compensations for limitations. As time goes by, the Hell Train will upgrade after a certain opportunity is triggered, and the prop cabinet contained in it will also advance together with the upgrade of the train. After the upgrade, the prop cabinet will retain the original On the premise that there are props, the number of props will be expanded and more powerful types of props will be added. The method of obtaining them is still the exchange of survival points.
The above is the information about the props that Tang Meng learned from He Feina. There is no doubt that the female doctor can easily understand the prop system without any pressure, but then it enters the hesitation stage, which is what any executor will always do at first. The dilemma of experiencing.
First of all, it is certain that in the eyes of the executor, the survival value is a currency similar to money but obviously much more precious than money. At the same time, the curse also clearly states that the survival value is related to whether the executor can finally escape from the cursed space. In short, it can be understood as survival. Value represents hope and is the only hope for the executor to break free from the prison and return to reality. In the same way, the reason why the executor is willing to persevere in the cursed space also comes from this hope. In the eyes of the executor, survival value is extremely precious. , is the existence of value second only to one's own life. However, unfortunately, just as there is no perfect thing in the world, facing a supernatural mission with a near-death life, if the executor wants to increase the chance of survival, then it is necessary to exchange props, and even Props must be replaced as the difficulty of the task increases, and more powerful supernatural props must be exchanged. Whether it is exchanged or replaced, the price is always survival points. Therefore, a dilemma is placed in front of all executors...
By exchanging props, your hard-earned survival points will be consumed, which not only means that your time to leave the cursed space will be greatly delayed, but also means that you will experience more supernatural missions and encounter more narrow escapes.
But if you don't exchange items, although survival is worth saving, in the absence of life-saving items, your chance of survival in the mission world will naturally be greatly reduced.
Dilemma, a complete dilemma. This problem has troubled He Fei, Zhao Ping, Cheng Ying, Peng Hu and other executors. Each of them has struggled with this problem at some point when they first boarded the train. Now the problem is circulating again and finally falls on Tang Meng.
But, there are differences...
Compared with the initial hesitation of others, Tang Meng's hesitation was the shortest among all the executors so far!
With a deep understanding of human psychology, many problems that ordinary people think are dilemmas are not problems at all for the female doctor. After just thinking and hesitating for 10 minutes, in the bedroom, Tang Meng covered up the hesitation that was all over her face just now. Hesitation was replaced by an unquestionable determination.
She made a decision, and her decision manifested itself in action.
Walking out of the bedroom, passing by the living room, and then pushing the door open and going straight out, it was obvious that Tang Meng accepted He Fei's suggestion and believed that it was not wise to accumulate survival points at the moment. If he wanted to continue to survive in the cursed space, he would need to He has a supernatural prop, so going to Car No. 1 becomes a must-do.
Bah.
After passing the No. 3 and No. 2 carriages, Tang Meng entered the No. 1 carriage with a light sound of the cabin door.
Since it was night, and the No. 1 carriage was already empty, Tang Meng saw no one else when she arrived in the carriage, and there was only silence. Of course, the atmosphere at the scene had nothing to do with Tang Meng. She herself only scanned the space briefly. After looking at the environment of the carriage, lock the right side and walk straight towards the red container placed in the corner of the carriage.
She opened the cabinet door casually, and sure enough, the first thing she saw were 5 rows of shelves, and each row was filled with a dazzling array of supernatural props. The number was not small, about 50 in total. What she needed to do now was to Choose one of the many props to redeem.
Relying on the exchange rules told by He Fei, Tang Meng naturally could not exchange blindly based on appearance. Instead, he put his hand into the container first, and frequently touched the items inside with his slender fingers. Every time he touched one, props would appear in his mind out of thin air. In terms of information and specific functions, it must be said that the exchange rules for curses are really reasonable, convenient and fast, and can completely allow the executor to obtain prop information in a short time. Unfortunately, some are reasonable and some are unreasonable, and the biggest unreasonable one is...
expensive!
From the first time I touched it to this moment, except for a few props whose prices were barely acceptable, the other props were all expensive, and the most expensive one actually reached 10 survival points! 10 survival points, the total points of five normal-level missions. It is true that the normal-level mission is only the lowest difficulty mission in Cursed Space, but in Tang Meng's eyes, it can still be described as extremely difficult. Unexpectedly, it was a mission that was completed after all the hard work. , the survival value obtained is only a fraction of the price of some props! The curse is so dark, no wonder He Fei subconsciously showed bitterness when talking about the price of the props. It turns out that's what happened, but...
Thinking of the various magical functions of the props, in the end, the female doctor was not dissuaded by the high prices of some props. Instead, she frowned slightly and continued to touch. She continued to obtain information about the props through touching, and at the same time, she made selections based on the performance of the props and the required survival value. standard.
Next…
"Um?"
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or not. As his fingers kept going back and forth between the props, after touching all the first four rows, when his fingers moved down and continued to touch, and touched something in the right corner of the fifth row, Tang Meng stopped, and when he stopped, he instinctively made a sound from his mouth.
There is no doubt that through the prop information received in her mind, Tang Meng finally found a prop she wanted, a prop that was extremely useful in her personal eyes. It stands to reason that the female doctor should be happy when she finds the prop she likes, but In reality, Tang Meng did not show joy. On the contrary, the eyebrows that were originally just slightly frowned deepened and completely evolved into frowns. Her beautiful face became complicated, and her whole face was full of regret.
reason? The reason is very simple, that is, she can't afford it! The exchange price of the item in front of her has exceeded the upper limit of her personal survival value. Of course, if the price is too high, Tang Meng will not show regret with a complicated expression, but will be directly persuaded to give up. But in fact? In fact, the price of this item is not high. The actual price only exceeds 1 point of survival value.
Yes, Tang Meng has accumulated 4 survival points after experiencing two ordinary-level missions. Unexpectedly, the price of the props in front of him is exactly 5 survival points!
After some careful selection, Tang Meng finally found an item that suited her, but the price of the item was just 1 point different, making it impossible for her to exchange it. Maybe you can bargain with vendors when buying things in the real world, but the curse is There is no possibility of bargaining at all, and the exchange rules for curses are always accurate. If the survival value is enough, you can exchange it at will, but if it is not enough, I'm sorry, no matter how you want it, no matter how unwilling you are, you can only He was daunted by the price, and the result of forcing it out was an electric shock.
The truth is certainly this, but...
In front of the container, he stared at the props in his hands, knowing that he couldn't exchange them, but Tang Meng still didn't let go. Instead of giving up as expected, he kept his face tangled for a long time after knowing the information about the props, and his beautiful eyes were filled with unwillingness. His teeth even bit his lip unconsciously, with a tangled expression on his face. The tangle lasted for a long time. After a full 5 minutes, Tang Meng sighed as if he had made some kind of decision, then left the container and turned around, walking straight out. Car No. 1.
In fact, the answer is very obvious after seeing this. Because the survival value is really not enough, the female doctor finally gave up the exchange. Although it was true that she gave up the exchange, she did not choose other lower-priced props, but left with a long breath. This undoubtedly proves that Tang Meng has changed her plan and plans to continue waiting until the next mission is completed before redeeming it. First of all, it is certain that this is a helpless solution, but what can she do in the face of the cruel reality? In desperation, the female doctor had no choice but to give up the choice of waiting for the time being, and chose to continue to save the survival points, and then redeem them when the survival points were enough. This is what she thought, and this is indeed what she did in reality, but, or let Tang Meng What she never expected was that after only half a minute, this seemingly unsolvable problem in her eyes was easily solved by a young girl!
squeak.
"Eh? Sister Tang Meng? Why are you outside?"
Many times coincidences happen suddenly when no one expects them. Just when Tang Meng was connecting to the cabin door, a door opened at the same time in front of him, and then a cute girl in a princess dress walked out. As soon as she came out, the girl was the first to see Tang Meng opposite with a look of regret on her face.
"Ah, it turns out to be Kong Ling. Your clothes are very beautiful! She looks like a Western princess." As expected of a psychiatrist, his ability to control people's hearts is extremely good. Although his face was filled with regret and reluctance, the moment he saw Kong Ling In an instant, Tang Meng instinctively concealed her regrets, and immediately greeted the girl with a smile, and complimented her on her beautiful clothes. Not to mention, the girl was so happy when Tang Meng praised her, and she jumped up to her. Without waiting to speak, Kong Ling turned her long skirt around like a show off and spoke first: "Hey, that's natural. I specially designed this skirt based on ancient Western princesses! Sister Tang Meng knows the goods, and you can tell at a glance!"
As described above, when seeing the other party praising herself, Kong Ling was the first to be happy and show off, but Tang Meng's initial expression was still captured and witnessed by the girl. The result was certain. After the show was completed, the next moment, Kong Ling thought of With such a curious expression on his face, he blinked and asked, "Huh? By the way, Sister Tang Meng, you, you looked unhappy just now?"
"No, it's nothing?"
Seeing Kong Ling asking curiously, Tang Meng subconsciously shook his head to express that nothing happened, but who was Kong Ling? I noticed that the other party was hesitating, and then I thought that the other party was returning here from the car in front, combined with Tang Meng's initial sad face...
Sure enough, after thinking about it for a while, Kong Ling thought of something. At the same time, his expression changed, and he immediately asked in a tentative tone: "Sister Tang Meng, you, you just went to Car No. 1 to redeem props, right?"
"Okay, you guessed it right. I did go to Car No. 1 before, and the purpose was indeed to redeem props. After all, I have experienced two missions, and it's almost time to redeem props."
"Then what?"
Sometimes it makes no sense to hide it in front of smart people, especially in front of Kong Ling, who is smarter than most adults. As expected, seeing the girl easily guessing his intentions, he smiled bitterly, Tang Meng was no longer hiding anything , nodded and simply admitted, and then Zhiwufu spoke endlessly under Ethereal's continued questioning, truthfully telling the truth about his earlier experiences, and then, an unexpected situation happened that Tang Meng had never expected...
It was too late, but then it was too late. When Tang Meng had just finished reporting that he had to temporarily give up the exchange due to insufficient survival points, the next second, a voice came out of his mind, and a voice prompt appeared on his own:
The executor Ethereal gives you 1 survival point, and your current survival value balance is 5 points.
The message came out of the blue, and the notification came without any warning. It just appeared in Tang Meng's mind out of thin air. After listening to the notification, or after knowing clearly that the girl in front of him actually gave him 1 survival point, Tang Meng was stunned. On the spot, the eyes that looked at Kong Ling were full of astonishment!
Why?
Why do you want to give me survival points? Although 1 survival point may not seem like much, survival value is precious after all. You must know that the reward for completing an ordinary level mission is only two survival points. Unexpectedly, Kong Ling didn't even hesitate. As soon as he learned about it, In his own predicament, the other party directly gave him 1 survival point!
"Kong Ling, you..." In astonishment, the female doctor planned to ask, but before she could finish her words, Kong Ling waved her hand and said it was okay. At the same time, she shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile: "Tch, isn't it just 1 survival point? ?As long as it can solve Sister Tang Meng's current predicament, this little bit of survival value is nothing. Oh, by the way, you must never return it to me. If you return it to me, it proves that you don't take my companion at all. I will never ignore you again!"
"Alright, Sister Tang Meng, hurry up and redeem the item you're interested in. I still have something I need to ask Uncle Glasses for advice."
Because Kong Ling's words were so harsh, Tang Meng, who had recently figured out the girl's temperament, really didn't dare to give back the survival points to the other party. In desperation, the female doctor had no choice but to stay in a daze, watching Kong Ling turn around. He left, and the girl just said she didn't care and then skipped towards the opposite side, towards the personal room of a certain man with glasses.
then……
Boom, boom, boom!
"Open the door! Uncle Glasses, open the door! I am Kong Ling, open the door quickly!"
5 minutes later, the time is 20:03 at night.
Let’s not talk about whether Tang Meng outside the door exchanged props after collecting the survival points. At this moment, in a white living room that was clean and tidy, even cleaner than He Fei’s room, Zhao Ping frowned in front of the sofa. Wei Ning is currently staring at someone, looking at the young girl Kong Ling who is running around in his room!
"Wow! Uncle Glasses, your room is so clean. It's almost as clean as mine. It's a pity that the decoration in the room is too monotonous and there isn't anything interesting at all?"
"Oh, by the way, if you agree, I can help you decorate it for free!"
As mentioned above, due to his naturally lively personality and the fact that he came to Zhao Ping's room for the first time, as expected, as soon as Zhao Ping opened the door, Kong Ling was already curious and walked directly into the room without the consent of the bespectacled man, and the excitement began. The tour was so careful that I looked at the living room, the bedrooms, the bedrooms, the kitchen, and even the toilets! Faced with such a mature girl who didn't regard him as an outsider at all, ordinary people would have been furious and scolded her on the spot. However, Zhao Ping was different, except for the man with glasses. The man did not speak or stop him, he was just expressionless. He watched with an expression on his face, letting the girl wander around the room in admiration, until...
It wasn't until Kong Ling visited all the rooms and confirmed that the other party had returned to the living room that the man frowned slightly, raised his head, adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said something to the girl: "Tell me, tell me what you came here for this time." Tell me the purpose.”
