I Became a God in a Horror Game: 379, preseason (184)
One o'clock in the morning, reality, inside Bai Liu's rental house.
Du Yingying had already fallen asleep, and Bai Liu and Tang Erda squatted on both sides of the tea room, on which a lot of materials were piled up.
An ashtray was placed by Tang Erda's feet, and a lot of cigarette butts had been extinguished in it. Tang Erda still had a burning one in his mouth. He frowned and turned to the tea. I reached out and flipped through a copy of the information on the Internet: "These are all the information I just asked Su Chao to print and send over. It is about the information of the owners of the Sunshine Real Estate last year."
"If it is true as you have analyzed, then the characteristics of the victimized owner group of this Sunshine Real Estate are very consistent with the prototype portrait of the Russell Cemetery Guild."
Tang Erda paused: "But one thing is very strange, if these people are really gamers, their life trajectory is really too..."
Bai Liu looked down at the information: "It's normal, isn't it?"
Go to work, get off work, eat, work, vacation, almost nothing. This group of people participated in a strange game behind the scenes. They are just a group of tired ordinary people who are saving .
"Yes, gamers are more or less extreme, and would like to use game items outside the rules of reality to escape the squeeze and sanctions of reality, such as the fanatical lamb we met before." Tang Er He frowned, "Although this group of people has been greatly oppressed, there is no sign of this at all."
"This is also the reason why we didn't find any abnormalities during our investigation last year. They don't look like gamers at all."
Bai Liu took out the score information, lowered his head, and asked while asking: "Captain Tang, if you are the owner of this real estate and you have entered the game, what will you do?"
Tang Erda was only slightly taken aback, and replied without hesitation: "Use the points to exchange items to track down the escaped developer's trail and bring him back."
Bai Liu took out a piece of information from and put it in front of Tang Erda: "Is this it?"
A newspaper was posted on the information - [The developer of Sunshine Real Estate suspected of surrendering, claiming that the funds were not in his own hands, and had already been transferred away by an overseas shell company].
The date of the news in the newspaper was October last year, which happened to be the time after the end of the preseason, and it was also a month after these owners jumped off the building.
"After the developer surrendered, all his assets were mortgaged to fill the gap in the Sunshine Real Estate, and he was far from being able to fill it up, so he was finally sentenced to a term of imprisonment." Bai Liu looked up at Tang Erda, "Now the developer You were caught, but it didn’t help you, you still have to repay the loan every month, and you still have to work hard to accumulate points and savings in the game, what will you do next?”
Tang Er thought for a while, he didn't know what to do for a moment, he felt a sense of emptiness, and he said slowly: "...I may continue to track down the developer's affairs... ..."
But he also stopped in the middle of the sentence.
"I don't care about chasing the developer, even if I get rid of it, it won't make up for it. It will only waste points. Once money goes overseas, it's like water drops into the ocean. After a few years , It is estimated that it has been laundered for several rounds, and the possibility of getting it back is too small." Bai Liu analyzed calmly, "The only thing that can solve their predicament is money."
"Although the points earned in the game can be exchanged for money, they are life-saving things. They have to play the game once a week, so they should not dare to move those accumulated points lightly. They can only rely on it. The construction site earns money to repay the mortgage.”
Bai Liuping looked at Tang Erda: "You are right, they are just a group of ordinary people, and they only want to live an ordinary life. Ordinary ones are pushed into the game."
"The game did not solve their problems, but brought them a huge burden. Desperation and pressure piled up like a snowball. Tolerable activity intensity.”
"They enter the game to escape reality, and in the game they have nowhere to escape, so they enter the Russell Cemetery."
Tang Erda picked up a newspaper with a solemn expression: "These people all have construction sites with stable income, families, normal social connections, relatives and friends, people who are in the same problem together, according to my Cognition, even if they encounter some difficulties, they should not collapse so quickly, and they will reach this point within 2 years."
Bai Liu published black and white photos one by one in the newspaper. These are all those who jumped off the building last year, and said softly:
"It may not be a year to let the country collapse."
"It's ten years."
Bai Liu's gaze fell on a black-and-white photo named [Wang Shuping], and the newspaper next to it was captioned [Loan Ten Years]:
“Whether it is in the game or outside the game, it may be fine if a problem persists for several years, but once there is no hope for ten years, it will be a great test for ordinary people Yes, there is still hope of repaying the mortgage, but there is no hope of getting it out of the game, and I think this is the main reason for their mental breakdown."
Bai Liu looked forward to Tang Erda: "Not everyone has the tenacity of Captain Tang. Hundreds of worlds can persevere without hope in the game."
Tang Er paused, put out the cigarette butt, leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes and let out a puff of smoke, and asked abruptly: "Bai Liu, if you are the president of the Russell Cemetery, what are you doing?" If you want to save these people, what will you do?"
"Do everything possible to win the game." Bai Liu pulled out the owner's materials one by one, and quickly browsed, "As long as you win the game once, the money and game problems can be solved at once."
"Points can be used to repay loans, and can be used to solve common problems in the guild, and that wish——"
Bai Liu slapped Tang Er: "I think that president probably wants to make a wish to get everyone out of this game."
"This is not a normal game that can be saved. Generally, people are either crazy or not in this game. If he wants everyone to survive, he must let everyone leave this game, except for winning the league once. , there is no other way."
"This kind of naive idea has never heard the story of Captain Tang. He should be quite young." Bai Liu's search for the owner's information finally slowed down. He took out a card, put it on the tea table, turned it 360 degrees and pushed it in front of Tang Erda, "Here, can Captain Tang find out his detailed information?"
Tang Erda's eyes fell on the information Bai Liu handed him——
[2701 household owners: Yuan Guang—the leader of the Sunshine Owner Victims Group].
Last day of preseason and midseason, wandering the circus conference room.
Tang Er, who checked the information all night last night, rubbed his temples, closed his eyes and rested his mind. After reading the information last night, it was past four o'clock. Honestly, Liu Jiayi and Mu Ke have been waiting in the conference room for a long time, and this guy is in good spirits.
Wang Shun opened the door and came in. He looked around and took a deep breath: "Today's team, Russell Cemetery."
"Before setting off to watch the pond, I will broadcast a good news to everyone."
Wang Shun clicked on the system panel: "I told everyone before that after the last competition, President Bai's popularity ranking has risen to 73, and he is the first in our team to have a free gold medal."
"And today, we have the second qi player who has a free gold medal."
Wang Shun's gaze slowly shifted to Mu Sicheng: "The hysteresis effect of the last competition, coupled with Mu Shen's recent outstanding performance, has raised his stamina to 98. Congratulations, you have won a free gold medal. "
Mu Sicheng was taken aback, as if he hadn't reacted yet, then he clenched his fists and jumped up and shouted yes!
"The importance of avoiding the gold medal has been emphasized many times to everyone. The eyes of shouting should not only focus on the current game, but also look forward to the future game. After winning the first game, we will compete with the eight major guilds selected from the mid-season competition and compete in the Challenger League."
"Today is also the last day of the mid-season competition. Apart from today's game, judging from the current points situation, the top eight guilds in total points are—"
Wang Shun clicked on the system panel:
"The number one, killer sequence
Rank 2, King's Guild
Ranked , Deer Hunter
Rank 4, Golden Dawn
Ranked fifth, Gamblers' Union
Ranked sixth, Kabbalah
Rank 7th, Paradise Freemasonry
Rank eighth, invisibility cloak. "
Wang Shun said to everyone: "These eight teams, no matter which one is a top team, and basically all of them are full-staffed and free of gold medals, so even if we have already won Qualification for the playoff challenge, today's game can not be slack, not only to win, but also to win beautifully, in order to gain the support of the audience, and strive for all our players to win gold medals in this game."
"In order to achieve this." Bai Liu slowly opened his eyes, "We must first interrupt the player with the fog skill."
"If the opponent successfully uses their skills to cover the map and the audience's vision, it will not only increase the difficulty of our game, but also prevent the audience from seeing the game, let alone gaining the support of the audience."
Bai Liu stood up and looked around lightly: "When you're ready, let's go."
All of them responded in unison: "Yes!"
Bai Liu turned and walked forward, Tang Er stood up and strode to Bai Liu's side, he turned his head and asked in a low voice: "Did you find anything after reading the materials all night?"
"I didn't find anything." Bai Liu lazily replied, "Except that Yuan Guang and I are traveling together."
Tang Er's expression froze, and he subconsciously asked: "A colleague? Is he also engaged in smuggling?"
"No." Bai Liu glanced at Tang Er from the corner of his eye, with a half-smile, "He's an artist."
The other end.
Yuan Guang sat nervously on the bench shaking his legs, clenched his hands into fists, and kept taking deep breaths, but his face still turned purple.
Shi Qian next to her was both annoyed and amused: "You've been here for a while, can you look like a general when you go on stage? Is it reasonable to be so nervous?"
"From primary school to university, I don't know how many times I have to give speeches on stage, introduce myself and so on..." Yuan Guang quietly turned his head to Shi Qian, "I am now on stage to introduce myself to the main beauty When thinking about ideas, I will be so tense that I can't breathe."
Shi Qian and Yuan Guang are so pitiful, they couldn’t hold back and said again: “Two teams advanced to the preseason, if you don’t beat me this time, you can also advance to the playoff challenge, Let's just give up..." Right.
"No!" Yuan Guang's voice calmed down, and he turned to Shi Qian, "This fight must be fought."
"Giving up this challenge and going straight to the challenge will definitely bring a lot of players to the big guild. We may not be able to win yet. The Wandering Circus is the guild with the most abundant deposits we have encountered recently. The current team members and the next team members need pensions, otherwise their family members can’t afford the mortgage, and many people won’t be able to pay the mortgage this month. If they don’t win this bet Pool..."
Yuan Guang gritted his teeth deeply and took a breath: "In short, I will definitely win this game!"
Shi Qian pretended to be unhappy to refute Yuan Guang's : "What you don't you, we will definitely win this game!"
Yuan Guangjing paused for a moment: "Thank you, we were just colleagues, and I dragged you into it."
Shi Qian smiled and said, "Talk about the relationship in reality, and the relationship in the game."
"We are standing here now, then we are no longer a relationship of colleagues, but a relationship of comrades-in-arms!"
Looking at the wandering circus troupe approaching from a distance, Shi Qian also clenched her sweaty fists nervously, exhaled, and said with firm eyes: "We will definitely win!"
