Chapter 272 Miniature People(1/2)
[Exclusively published by Jinjiang Literature City]
Ten minutes later, the last few people arrived. The game facility in front of them automatically opened its door, and a childish voice sounded from the door, prompting entry.
You Xi counted, there were fifteen people in total.
They didn't know that tonight was a special occasion, and most people still pretended to be ordinary tourists. There were also smart tourists who noticed some differences, and their eyes kept wandering around other people, and finally saw something.
From You Xi's point of view, it is actually quite obvious, because apart from tourists, every time ordinary tourists are selected to participate in the Nightmare Paradise, it is their first time to participate, and they will have expressions of unknown, guessing, anger and fear.
They will not be like tourists, who know how to keep a low profile, blend in with the crowd, and be taciturn.
However, when all the participants showed a low-key and vigilant appearance, the answer was already obvious.
Of the fifteen people, Team Youxi accounted for four, nearly one-third. It was hard to tell whether it was because Lin Wu and the other three came to this section today to gather enough passengers to create a special situation.
But this speculation also reminded the four of them once again that they must not reveal their teammates’ identities tonight.
It’s not that they can’t deal with other passengers, but when the unknown nightmare park game is going on, they need to concentrate all their attention to deal with the game.
The game venue is fully enclosed, You Xi remembered that this venue was also there during the day, but there was no name of the amusement park outside, and it was always closed in the corner, so no one usually paid attention to it.
It was dark inside the venue. As the fifteen tourists walked to the end of the venue's passage, a three-dimensional screen appeared in front of them, with fifteen rectangular card projections floating on the screen.
"Visitors, please start drawing lots." That childish voice came from inside the venue in front of them.
The voice echoed inside the venue. The venue seemed to be particularly large this time, but because of the darkness, only its outline could be seen vaguely.
The fifteen passengers looked at each other and saw that everyone was calm and unflustered. Those who had not noticed anything strange before now also understood.
Some people frowned, others stretched out their hands to choose cards, and soon all fifteen cards disappeared with the touch of the passengers.
"Please tourists... Ah, hee hee hee, you should have discovered it by now. Please use your bracelet to check the lottery results. Remember to keep the lottery results confidential!" The childish voice tried its best to speak in a playful and cute tone, but it failed.
It makes one's scalp tingle.
Because everyone has experience and knows what kind of NPC is behind this cute voice.
You Xi lowered her head and clicked on her bracelet. The projection of the card she just touched had already entered her bracelet. She clicked on the card and flipped it over, but there was nothing behind it.
Nothing?
What does this mean?
She frowned slightly, and the corner of her gaze calmly glanced at You Zhenzhen, who was closest to her. She also seemed to frown slightly.
"Okay, here are the rules of the game.
Fun game: Attack of the Golden Balls.
Rules: Something bad happened, the princess’s golden ball disappeared again! Find the golden ball and return it to the princess within an hour to win the game!
Note: If you make three mistakes, the princess will be very sad~"
Compared with the night games that You Xi participated in before, the rules this time seem to be very simple. As long as you find the golden ball and return it to the princess within sixty minutes, you can win.
But this is a special game, and the simpler the rules of the game, the more it gives people an ominous premonition.
After the rules of the game were announced, the dark venue in front of them suddenly lit up.
The light changed so much that everyone stretched out their hands to cover their eyes. After a few seconds, they moved away and looked forward.
This is indeed a very huge venue, and the interior is still a landscape that simulates a real forest, with trees, shrubs, wild grasses and flowers, pools, and a tall castle looming behind the trees in the distance.
The difference is that this time the forest landscape is very, very huge. Standing in it, they look like mini people who have accidentally entered the land of adults.
Everyone began to speculate that the giant forest was created to make it more difficult to find the golden ball?
Although everyone now knows that the other person is a tourist and is still vigilant, this game is a collective pass game after all. As long as someone finds the correct golden ball and returns it to the princess, everyone can pass the game.
Of course, the rewards will definitely be different in the future, but as a game involving all passengers, successfully completing the game is already a very good result.
Because if you fail the game, not to mention rewards, even your life will be handed over here.
The people who could come to the S site were all seasoned travelers, and everyone had a clear idea of priorities. As a result, some people softened their expressions, and some took the initiative to give their opinions. The atmosphere between them also relaxed a lot for a while.
You Xi's phone vibrated, and she checked quietly to see that it was You Zhenzhen who posted it in the group.
You Zhenzhen: Can we also pretend to cooperate?
You Xi: Don’t be anxious, wait and see what happens. The NPC hasn’t appeared yet, which is a bit abnormal.
The npc has indeed never appeared. You Xi has participated in night games every day for the past seven days. There will be npcs present in every game. Most of them are tourists who are stranded at this site and cannot leave, so most of them are full of resentment and stare at the participants.
Visitors, as long as someone violates its attack rules, it will immediately change its attitude and attack.
In addition, if Xiyuan is also dragged into this game as an NPC, he has not appeared yet, so I don’t know what will happen.
The tourists walked towards the venue, surrounded by tall and dense weeds. These ordinary weeds were as tall as a person at the moment, seriously blocking their sight. If they wanted to find a golden ball in such a huge forest scene, it was indeed difficult.
Not an easy task.
Some travelers who were more savvy in planning clapped their hands and stood on a nearby stone that was about one person tall, saying that there were only fifteen of us and the place was huge. If we searched blindly and without a plan, the efficiency of repeated searches would be very low.
The time is only sixty minutes. The best way is to divide this place into areas, and each person is responsible for one area. This way, everyone's search range does not overlap, and the ball can be found in the shortest time.
What the other party said made sense. Some passengers agreed, while others were impatient to hear this and had already begun to dig through the grass to look for it.
When everyone was planning how to divide the area, almost at the same time, everyone heard a strange sound, like the sound of something hitting the ground: Plop - Plop -
Every beat is very rhythmic.
The weeds near them soon made a rustling sound, as if something was approaching.
Before anyone could react, a blood-red tongue suddenly shot out from mid-air. The tongue was more than half a meter wide and was extremely fast. It landed on the passenger who was originally standing on the stone.
The traveler was stuck and flew away instantly with his tongue.
The passenger reacted very quickly. He immediately took out his weapon and fired. The bullet penetrated his tongue and erupted into thick mucus. The passenger who fought back immediately screamed miserably.
"Ahhhh - it hurts -" The skin of his face, hands and feet instantly turned black, as if he had been burned. The next second, he was bounced back into a huge blood-red mouth by his tongue.
A creepy chewing sound sounded.
"It's a frog!" Someone yelled, and the tourists who had gathered nearby dispersed. Some people found rocks to hide, while others hid in the grass.
You Xi also quickly retreated and hid on the side of a huge tree trunk.
In the grass, a huge frog's eye poked out from where they were standing. The frog's head alone was as big as the front of a truck. It chewed its big mouth, quickly stretched out its claws, and spat out with a pop.
chew something in the mouth.
"Hehehe, golden ball!" the frog said, but it was in a childish voice, exactly the same as the voice that just announced the rules of the game.
This is the NPC in today’s game!?
Everyone has experienced life and death, but at this moment, when they looked at the "golden ball" on the frog's paw, they still had the urge to vomit.
It was a bloody "human ball". Because of the strong physical quality of the passengers, there might still be a little breath left, so everyone could even see the gently twitching hands and feet on the surface of the "ball"...
"I want to return the golden ball to the princess!" the frog said to himself, seeming to be saying the lines in the plot.
However, its eyes are fixed on the tourists hiding in various parts of the forest. From its cold and cruel eyes, it can be seen that although it plays the role of a frog in the game, its purpose is actually tourists.
Probably due to game restrictions, after the frog found the "golden ball", he had to go to the castle behind and return it to the princess, so even though he was very reluctant, he took the bloody "ball" in his mouth again, then turned around and jumped into the grass.
After the giant frog left, some passengers finally couldn't bear it anymore and complained: "Holy shit! What the hell is this! Is it an NPC? Or a frog? Is it us looking for the ball or is it looking for the ball?"
Youxi's phone vibrated.
You Zhenzhen: Mom, you must be careful! We all have shields, but you don’t. Don’t face it head-on!
Tang Yatong: Everyone should try to get closer to each other, not completely together, but within a distance where each other can take care of each other.
Lin Wu: Did the frog treat people as balls?
You Xi: This game is not that simple. Think about it and pay attention to the following sentence and the draw just now.
Fifteen people are drawn by lots because different identities need to be assigned in the game.
——Note: If you make three mistakes, the princess will be very sad~
Therefore, it is impossible to find the right golden ball at once. The reason must be that the number of golden balls - or the number of "suspected golden balls" is too many. Coupled with the previous draw, the answer is already obvious.
This game is not about asking them to find the ball.
These fifteen of them are the ‘Golden Balls’!
Sure enough, a moment later, a sharp and angry voice came from the direction of the castle: "This is not my golden ball!!"
After that, there was a loud bang and a scream from a young voice.
You Xi thought of the princess's character and angry behavior in another version, and roughly guessed what happened there. The princess should have discovered that the "golden ball" sent by the frog was incorrect, so she directly threw the frog to the ground or a tree.
.
The giant frog was thrown by the princess, and its anger level increased. I'm afraid it will come faster this time!
Sure enough, You Xi had just finished posting his guessed message in the group, and the huge frog had already rushed nearby again at a very fast speed: "Golden ball! I want to find the golden ball!"
It roared angrily and scurried around the grass, rocks and trees. Some travelers were unlucky and found their hiding place, and a fierce battle broke out.
But the frog was so big that if its skin or tongue were punctured, pus comparable to sulfuric acid would splash out. The passengers had a very difficult time fighting it, and even taking out a flamethrower failed to ignite the frog's skin.
But this was a matter of life and death, so he brought out his special skills, and for a while he was beaten by the flying pus, causing the frog to croak.
