Gamers Are Fierce Chapter 213: Password

Li Ang roughly explained the background of this incident to Tang Rannuo, and then refreshed the Anti-996 License project page on the tablet computer back and forth, but there was no trace of garbled characters.

"Well....there are three possibilities."

Li Ang said seriously: "One, the page has been reset to cancel the curse of cognitive bias.

Second, the previous curse was specifically aimed at Xia Junqiang. After it took effect, the caster immediately canceled it.

Third, we did not meet the conditions to trigger the curse. "

Tang Rannuo frowned and pondered, and quickly reacted.

The first possibility is unlikely, because the number of visits to the Anti-996 License page is not small. If all visitors were cursed with cognitive bias, there would have been a series of death incidents exposed by now.

The second possibility cannot be tested at present. It is impossible for the two players to enter Xia Junqiang's room and search on his computer.

Even if they find an intelligence dealer now, buy a set of hacking software from him, and try to hack into Xia Junqiang's personal computer, it's not realistic - there's too little time left, and it's still a matter of whether the computer is scrapped or not.

The third possibility, on the contrary, is the most probable,

If the unidentified caster spreads the curse of cognitive bias widely on the web page and sets certain trigger conditions (for example, the curse will only take effect when the viewer has red hair) ,

Then it is indeed possible to shrink the scope and accurately curse certain groups.

But the problem is, God knows what characteristics of Xia Junqiang's body satisfy the trigger condition of the curse,

Li Ang and Tang Rannuo are not experts in mysticism, and they don't have time to verify Xia Junqiang's curse triggering process one by one.

The mission goal of the first stage is to find out the cause of Xia Junqiang's death,

The two of them guessed that he died of a curse, but they haven't figured out the specific process of how the curse will take effect, and failed to meet the requirements for completing the first stage of the mission.

As the mission deadline approaches, the atmosphere between the two players becomes more and more eccentric.

Co-op missions in the regular world are best if you can, but you won't lose much if you can't.

And once the time limit is over, after the friendly damage between the two is blocked, the first thing is probably to beware of attacks from the other side.

There is no trust between players. The strong can manipulate the weak at will. Using the true identity and life safety of the weak as a bargaining chip, they threaten the opponent to hand over all the equipment and props on their body, and then package and sell the weak.

Such things are quite common overseas, and some bad-character players even form hunting brigades to actively seek out extraordinary events and hunt down other players who are unfortunate enough to come into their sight.

Lone Wolf players and major official organizations hate hunting brigades, but as long as there are interests, there will be disputes and killings.

'If I can't think of a way, I can only have a head-to-head fight with him...'

Tang Rannuo's expression was still cold, but his brain was running fast, and he said silently in his heart, 'If we really want to fight, I'm afraid I'm not his opponent.

This guy's basic stats are terribly high, and he doesn't look like the physique that an ordinary player of my level should have. ’

It is true that Tang Rannuo is a level 10 or higher player, but she is not a complete combat player, nor has she ever joined any organization, and only maintains a "knowing but unfamiliar" relationship with the members of the Special Affairs Bureau.

When she really wanted to fight Li Ang, Tang Rannuo felt that she had no advantage—even if she was accompanied by a big golden retriever with extraordinary abilities.

It's hard...

Tang Rannuo let out a long sigh in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change at all - any slight expression would make the other party suspicious, and then amplify the killing intent towards her.

"I have a way to verify the third possibility." Tang Rannuo said: "But I have to send a message to my friend."

"Oh?"

Li Ang raised his eyebrows, "The friend you mentioned is an occult scholar?"

"Almost, she has some research on occult rituals."

Tang Rannuo answered vaguely, looking straight at Li Ang, waiting for the other party's consent.

From the beginning of the mission, the two players have been inseparable like conjoined babies. This is mainly to prevent the other party from notifying the official organization and betraying the other party.

Actively contacting a third person is likely to be considered a provocative move, and there is also a threat of intelligence leakage.

"Um..."

Li Ang frowned and thought for a while, nodded, and released the tablet computer that originally belonged to Tang Rannuo.

The latter took the tablet and put it on the coffee table. After swiping a few times, he found a QQ friend named "White Bear" (the avatar was a polar bear), and sent him a copy of Xia Junqiang A photo of the screen, and a message.

"Hello, this picture is an extraordinary event I just encountered. I guess it is the curse of cognitive bias in mysticism. Can you find a way to figure out its triggering conditions, mode of action and curse target?"

After sending the message, Tang Rannuo and Li Ang waited quietly for several minutes, staring at the tablet screen silently.

This white bear's QQ friend is actually a best friend who lives with Tang Rannuo, and is also a model, a young hairy girl from Russia.

A few months ago, the two were randomly selected as players by the system at almost the same time.

For so long, Tang Rannuo and Mao Mei have been supporting and encouraging each other, struggling to survive in the terrifying and desperate tasks, and their pure feelings for each other have also heated up sharply.

The QQ account she is using now and the QQ account of Bai Xiong ~IndoMTL.com~ are both registered before, and there is no content in them.

The two made an appointment that in the event of an emergency (such as being held hostage, coerced, kidnapped, or forced to enter a routine mission),

Just use these two QQs to make contact. When contacting, you can further express your current situation and hidden requirements to the other party according to the tone, words and punctuation.

(For example, there are two words hello at the beginning, which proves that I have entered a regular mission and I am with another player I don't know. There is no punctuation at the end, which proves that I am still safe...)

Tang Rannuo sent a request to her best friend who is proficient in mysticism, and the secret code embedded in the request,

And the best friend also reacted quickly, typing and sending a message while preparing to support Tang Rannuo.

"These garbled characters on the screen are indeed the curse of cognitive bias.

The source and caster of the curse are unknown.

The triggering condition of the curse is that the concept of interests is biased towards the majority of working people, they have strong and simple values, and they have hatred for those business owners who squeeze the surplus wealth created by the workers.

The ultimate goal of the curse is to further solidify the subject's outlook on life, world outlook and values, making it tough, tenacious, and not easy to yield. "

As the best friend answered, Li Ang and Tang Rannuo also heard a system beep, reminding them that the first phase of the mission had been completed and entered the second phase.
