When the others came down from the wall one after another, they saw Gao Yi's big face in close contact with the wall. At the same time, Xie Yingying was holding a gun against his back.
"Ahem..."
Gao Yi was finally rescued by his companions. He patted his shirt, cleared his throat, and said solemnly: "Now that we are advancing to a new location, the main line has been updated."
[After leaving the campus, you are going to the "Beitang Road Station" to take the 203 bus home. ]
[But at this moment, you suddenly have a creepy feeling. ]
[It seems... like some wild beast is staring at its prey from the dark. ]
[You feel flustered for no reason. ]
[Please make your choice among the options below. (Your choice is closely related to the development of the plot)]
[?Escape from Jishui Alley immediately and get rid of this feeling! ]
→Go to a new random location and draw an encounter card. At the same time, if there is a trick card in the personal zone that is in a ready state, it will be triggered one additional time.
[?Pretend not to notice anything, wait for the opportunity, and prepare to try to seek help from trusted people! ]
→Go to the new location [Beitang Road Platform] and draw one card from the [Survival] card pile. At the same time, they continue to be "peeped", and at the end of each round, Sanity -1.
"Let's all share our opinions."
Gao Yi held an umbrella and looked like a "well-off family", which was completely different from the embarrassed look of others standing in the rain: "Leaving the initial location, the plot direction has diverged, and each divergence is related to the ending we need to face. Difficult and easy.”
"I think everyone should realize their positioning as soon as possible."
"Do the two options lead to different situations?"
Lao Luo thought for a while and analyzed: "From the perspective of the price that needs to be paid to escape immediately, in the plot, the peeper seems to have pursued him because he was discovered."
"In this way, this option is nothing more than clarifying the situation and putting the confrontation on the table. In other words, there may be more places where fighting is needed."
"The second option is to pretend to be confused while trying to understand. While accumulating strength, there is still room to investigate clues for the entire team. I think there is no need to say more about the focus, right?"
A battle, an investigation. At this point, the meaning is very clear. For the sake of the ending, the team must now differentiate and find the most suitable combination to face their respective "tasks".
There were six people present, and the characteristics of their characters could not be more distinct. Even without much discussion, the two teams had been formed.
In terms of combat, [Secret Agent] Xie Yingying is the first to bear the brunt, followed by [JK Beautiful Girl] Gao Yi who has a humanoid self-propelled buff, and [Awei] Allen who has a baseball bat.
This combination can be said to be quite good.
In terms of investigation, [Teacher on Duty] Senior Sister led [Bin Bin] Mr. Qian and [Squad Leader] Lao Luo.
Although the three of them don't have any special features on the panel, their knowledge values are pretty good, and they even have the ability bonuses of the characters themselves, so they can be used as logistical reserves, so there won't be any problems.
"But what if... the guess you just made is wrong?"
Mr. Qian was worried: "If we encounter an enemy, we won't be able to solve it at all?"
His worries were not unnecessary. Due to the nature of the game, the requirements for unlocking clues will increase according to the player's multiplier. Similarly, the enemy's health value will also be the same.
In this way, the polarized player team encounters its own shortcomings, which is tantamount to disaster.
"rest assured."
Gao Yi's fingers landed on the three location cards connected to [Jishui Lane]. Although in terms of settings, these three locations are not connected to each other, if something happens, he has a way to remedy it.
"When the time comes, I will return to [Jishui Lane]."
Gao Yi clicked on [Jishui Alley] and showed his hand - [Signal Stick]: "We can attack when we advance, and we can defend when we retreat."
[Signal Rod] can arouse the hatred of enemies in adjacent locations or at the same location. As a result, they also have time to form an encirclement.
At that time, it will be a simple six-person siege.
But now, before they make their own choices, Allen needs to resolve the "Voice in the Alley" in his personal threat zone.
[Voice of Deep Alley] has the negative effect of reducing 1 point of sanity at the end of the round. If Allen's escape choice is triggered once more, then he will need to lose 2 sanity points this round.
[Awei] A student does not have much sanity on his own panel. He may still need it in the future. If he cannot replenish his sanity now, it is better to discard it voluntarily.
Allen discarded a card with the [Investigation] affix. For a moment, the six people in Jishui Alley also heard the faint sound of treading water behind them.
"coming."
Gao Yi was stunned, turned his head and looked behind him, and was stunned by the sight in front of him.
"So many rats!"
——
[The spreading rat swarm]
Category: (Enemy) (Animal)
Panel: Strength: 1/ Sanity damage: 1/ Life: 2 (×3=6)/ Agility: 4/
Affix: Hunter
——Oh my god, they will chase you to the ends of the earth!
Description: Countless rats gather together for unknown reasons, their tails are tied to each other, and they run around for the desire of symbiosis.
They're hungry, they're crazy. What you see in front of you is not a living thing, but a huge collection of desires. Who can make them stop? !
——
"Oh my god……"
Allen was shocked.
This stalker was really randomly selected from the enemy's inventory. At first I thought it was a human being, but unexpectedly even rats came out.
"What are you doing standing still? Prepare to fight!"
Under the umbrella, Gao Yi waved his hand, and an invisible bonus suddenly fell on other people in the same place.
"drink--"
Allen swung the baseball bat.
[Awei]'s power is 3, and after getting [Baseball Bat], it is 4. The power of [Spreading Rat Swarm] is 1. As the attacker in the investigation phase, Allen can cause a basic 1 point of damage as long as he overwhelms the opponent with power.
After getting the bonus of high righteousness ability, it is 2 points.
The Chaos Bag invisibly spit out a point.
[-2].
2:1.
The judgment was successful!
"squeak!"
A stick was smashed down hard, and the rats that were connected to each other were unable to dodge, and they were immediately hit hard, leaving many corpses behind.
[Spreading rat swarm]: Life: 6 → Life: 4
Allen's mobility was exhausted after some movement and operation. He ended his turn and waited uneasily for help from his remaining teammates.
But unfortunately, team c-position Xie Yingying's round passed before him, and it seemed that there was no chance to kill her in one round.
"Don't panic."
Lao Luo showed a card in his hand.
——
[Create opportunities! ]
(quick →)
——Conduct an "agility" judgment on an enemy at the same location. If successful, the remaining action energy will be consumed, giving an additional attack opportunity to a companion who has completed his action, and increasing his current damage by 1.
——
"My agility is 2, and the enemy's agility is 4." Lao Luo stared at his right hand with a solemn expression.
In this case, unless you draw +2 or the rare +3/+4, and a big success, the other endings are failure.
And if Xie Yingying successfully gets the chance to shoot, she will receive 4 points of direct fatal damage.
