At the beginning of the global game, the NPCs were happily wandering around the dungeon without any alertness.
"We can't be in danger in the game"--that's what everyone thinks.
Until a man with the gender "?" appears.
He came up and destroyed the first copy he matched. Although this matter attracted the attention of NPCs, no one took it seriously.
It is reasonable for everyone to think that the game is defective. That copy must have been designed with flaws, so it crashed.
But then, a second crashed copy appeared.
Coincidentally, this copy also contains the man whose gender is a mystery.
Some people became alarmed, while others still thought it was a coincidence.
Smart supermarket manufacturers immediately seized the business opportunity and urgently launched a sign that everyone might use in the future. Facts have proved that the manufacturer's decision was very wise. Later, one copy after another collapsed, and this listing was sold out of stock.
At first, the game side would try its best to save the copy when it crashed. But as more and more copies crashed, the game's rescue measures became more and more negative, and in the end it was almost broken.
The NPCs watching the excitement realized the seriousness of the problem.
"If I don't come out to condemn the game's negative attitude at this time, then when Gu Mian enters my copy, no one will be able to stand up and speak for me."
The NPCs united in protest.
In response to everyone's calls, the game recently launched the "Dungeon Ghost Labor Security Contract"
NPCs can sign this contract with the game party by paying a certain price, and the contract will protect the personal safety of the signer. And ensure that when they are attacked by Gu Mian, the game side will close the copy in time to kick out the source of danger.
Along with this labor security contract, there is also a "Copy Accidental Injury/Death Insurance"
Forcibly closing the copy will cause some damage to the copy, and you will need to spend money to repair it. However, after purchasing accidental death insurance, if the insured's copy is damaged due to Gu Mian's factors, the game will provide most of the compensation, which greatly reduces the pressure on the injured NPC to make money to repair the copy.
It is said that an NPC surnamed Che shouted that it was unfair after hearing that the game launched "Dungeon Accidental Injury/Death Insurance", and then ran away crying.
Of course Gu Mian didn't know this.
He just heard the ghost under him take out something paper and shout in a hoarse voice: "I have a labor security contract!"
What labor security contract?
Before Gu Mian could react, a translucent game panel appeared in front of him. He was familiar with this panel. It would pop up every time the copy crashed.
But this time the content on the panel is slightly different.
[If it is detected that a signer of the labor security contract is in danger, the game will forcibly close the copy where the signer is located and kick out all players in the copy within ten seconds]
What the hell is this? Gu Mian looked like he had eaten shit.
At this time, the panel has started counting down.
【8, 7, 6...】
A few seconds later, Gu Mian reappeared in the ticket booth.
The conductor didn't seem to notice that Gu Mian had returned. He was holding the microphone behind the counter and talking to someone: "...Is it Sunshine Insurance? No, no, no. I don't want to buy a copy of accidental death insurance. I want to ask if you have any. Insurance for the conductor, for example, if someone threatens my personal safety with a saw, can you send someone to protect me..."
At this point, he finally saw Gu Mian who had just come out of the copy.
The man in the white coat smiled gently at him, showing a row of shining white teeth.
The conductor was so frightened by the row of teeth that his hands trembled and the microphone dropped to the ground.
…
"Spit it out, spit it out quickly! It's not cooked yet!" As soon as Gu Mian returned to the door, she heard the fat man's roar coming from inside.
He opened the door, and a raw moon cake flew over and hit him on the forehead with a "snap".
Chu Changge next to him took two steps back to avoid receiving the same blow to his forehead.
Gu Mian silently took off the mooncake that was patted on her head and looked towards the living room.
I saw Xiaohong hanging on the luxurious chandelier in the living room, holding a mooncake in one hand and chewing something with relish in her mouth.
Below is the anxious fat man, who is jumping on tiptoes under the chandelier, trying to snatch back the unbaked mooncakes from Xiaohong's hand.
There is also Xiao Qiao in the kitchen who comes to steal things every day. At this time, she is opening the oven in a sly manner and reaching for the half-cooked mooncakes baked inside.
What a happy welcome ceremony.
The welcome ceremony ended with Xiao Hong and Xiao Qiao being beaten up by Gu Mian respectively.
Due to the mischief of these two things, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening when Fatty finished baking the mooncakes.
"Although it's a little late, it's just the right time to enjoy the moon and eat mooncakes at the same time." The fat man said with a smile while placing a plate of freshly baked lotus seed paste and egg yolk mooncakes in front of Gu Mian.
As he spoke, he took out a few pieces of oil paper and wrapped some mooncakes: "I'll give some to Miss Coco below."
After saying that, he carried the mooncakes and left.
Next to them, Xiao Qiao and Xiao Hong had already started fighting over the last batch of bean paste-filled mooncakes. During the fight, they even slapped the special "sister mooncake" out of their brother's hand.
The fat man specially made a mooncake for his brother with "Sister" printed on the pattern. The brother was holding it and couldn't put it down, but he didn't expect it to be swatted away by them.
So he also joined this war between women.
Gu Mian didn't care about them either.
He picked up a lotus seed mooncake and took a bite. It was delicious.
Chu Changge didn't seem to like eating this, so he just picked it up and took a few perfunctory bites.
"By the way, before you were kicked out of the dungeon, you also saw the 'labor security contract', right?" Gu Mian said while watching the war.
"I see, the game seems to have launched something new." Chu Changge put down the moon cake, "I guess it is similar to insurance in the real world. If the NPC who signed the agreement unfortunately encounters Gu Mian, the game must take countermeasures."
Is it such an unfortunate thing to encounter me? I'm obviously very lovable, right?
"This guarantee contract won't be available to everyone, so we won't be able to ask anything from the NPCs." Gu Mian thought, "Whenever they see me in the future, they will immediately take out this contract and shout, ' I have a guaranteed contract,' and then the copy immediately kicked me out."
What a tragic thing.
"It's not like this. I think this contract can only take effect when the signer is in danger. In the copy just now, didn't you push the ghost to the ground and choke his neck? You only took out the contract when he was almost strangled to death. Contract." Chu Changge pushed up his glasses.
That's true.
Gu Mian held the moon cake and nodded, thinking to herself: "It seems that from now on I can only use gentle methods to get information from ghosts."
