Chapter 808 The beginning of everything is difficult [5000 monthly ticket]
There was darkness in the vision.
Lin Mo lost control of the character.
Looking at the system's 'character is dead' prompt in his field of vision, after a brief period of darkness, Lin Mo returned to his private space.
This mission failed.
Characters also die.
However, the harvest was huge. When Lin Mo opened the inventory at this moment, he could no longer find the game scene card "The Flesh Canteen on the Glutton".
This is a card that can only be used once.
And there is nothing superfluous.
In other words, Lin Mo has no way to enter the game to look for clues now.
"What kind of game is this? It's basically connected to the nightmare world."
Based on his knowledge of the game "Death Chamber", most of the game scenes he had experienced before were also real.
"What is the origin of this game?"
When Lin Mo thought about this problem, he would think more, and the more he thought, the more terrifying and weird this game felt.
But now is not the time to explore this matter.
Before the character died, Lin Mo paid attention to two points.
One is the terrifying huge black shadow on the bottom of the sea.
Perhaps, that is the true identity of the Sea of Fear.
That's really big.
People take one look at it and instantly kill their character.
Another point is good news.
The woman in red in the makeup mirror she saw before she died was Xi Wenjun.
She was indeed fine.
But he must have been trapped in that sea area, and not on the ship, but in the sea.
Because I was in the sea, I saw her in the mirror.
Xi Wenjun must have seen himself at that time.
I just don't know if she recognized it.
No matter what, Xi Wenjun is okay for the time being, which is undoubtedly good news.
Lin Mo looked around at this moment.
Lao Bai is no longer in the private space.
Taking off the VR equipment, Lin Mo stood up and moved around, then changed his position and fell asleep.
Lao Bai was also not found.
"Lao Bai really stayed over there!"
After confirming that Lao Bai was no longer standing behind him, Lin Mo felt a little complicated.
I don’t know if Lao Bai can leave the fearful sea and reach the island. Lin Mo folded a paper crane, wrote Lao Bai’s name on it, blew on it and let it fly.
If Lao Bai reaches that island, which means he is out of the scope of the Sea of Fear, then the paper crane will most likely be able to fly back.
Lin Mo wants to see how long it will take.
In this way, the distance can also be roughly calculated.
But the most important thing right now is to find the Silence.
It is not difficult to find a ship in the real world, but it is more difficult to find a ghost ship in the vast sea of the nightmare world.
Lin Mo thought about it, and first went to the General Administration to inquire and see if there was any information about the 'Silence'.
After all, the archives of the General Administration contain almost all the strange incidents that have been discovered since the nightmare incident. If there is ready-made information, it will be much easier than investigating from scratch.
But for this matter, Lin Mo had to go to the headquarters in person.
I called the director, but no one answered the first time, but they did the second time.
"Have you finally remembered your job?" the director joked.
"Director, I'm on vacation in name, but I'm actually busy all the time. You know me, I can't sit idle." Lin Mo said a few nonsense words, and then applied to return to the General Administration.
The director agreed.
Before leaving, of course Lin Mo had to say hello to his neighbors and his father.
Of course, I had to bring Dou Dou with me this time. After knowing that he was going to be separated from the children, this guy became silent for a long time, and even secretly wiped away his tears.
Lin Mo took Dou Dou and told him truths such as, "There is no such thing as a feast that lasts forever" and "Today's separation means we will meet again in the future."
Doudou stared at her big black eyes without a trace of white and said I didn't understand.
"It's okay, you will understand slowly. When you understand, you will grow." Lin Mo touched Doudou's head and drank a bowl of chicken soup to ensure that this little guy can thrive in the future.
If you look closely, except that this little guy is a little purple and his eyes are black, he can be considered a handsome little guy.
And I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been with Lin Mo for a long time, but the more I look at him, the more he looks like Lin Mo when he was a child.
This is not Lin Mo's own opinion, it was his father who first discovered this.
Dad said, looking at Doudou is like looking at you when you were a child.
Lin Mo also went to the butcher to say something specifically.
Hearing that it was related to the Glutton, the Butcher was silent for a moment and told Lin Mo that he was going too.
"I have been on that ship. It has special meaning to me." The butcher may have been talking about the curse of gluttony. Lin Mo also supported the butcher's idea.
"If you inform Nie Hong, she will definitely go." The butcher added.
Nie Hong is currently at the Black Sheep Mansion in Tunjing City, but it is not difficult to notify Nie Hong. All he needs to do is ask the patient to go to the Black Sheep Mansion.
If nothing else works, Lin Mo can put up a paper crane to deliver the message, and he can fly back and forth in seven or eight days at most.
"Okay, I'll inform her." Lin Mo knew that if he really wanted to go to sea this time, it would not be enough for him alone, and he would indeed need helpers.
After coming out of the butcher's house, Lin Mo ran to talk to his father and his mother in the swimming pool.
Dad also wanted to go along, but Lin Mo refused to let him go.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. Besides, you are also needed in the community. And I am not going alone. Butcher and Nie Hong will go with me, and Doudou will follow. What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid you lost Doudou." Dad came over and knelt down to play with Doudou.
This is almost a must-have entertainment item for Dad every day.
Let the grandfather and grandson play, Lin Mo squatted by the swimming pool and started chatting with his mother.
Every time he came back, Lin Mo would tell his mother many things.
Although my mother is now a fish and can't speak, Lin Mo feels that my mother can definitely understand, and she must especially want to know her own experience.
Otherwise, it would be very boring for her to stay in this pool.
So whenever he has time, Lin Mo will come and chat.
That's just too much detail.
What's interesting is that whenever Lin Mo comes, the mother in the swimming pool will be very quiet and listen to Lin Mo's nonsense. Sometimes she will listen to Lin Mo's bragging that is a little outrageous, and she will spit a bunch of bubbles in the water.
"Okay, mom, I'm going out this time. If everything goes well, it may take a few months before I can come back. You should be good, exercise more, and don't just squirt daddy when there's nothing wrong. He won't even dare to come over and talk to you.
Speak."
"Also, don't worry about me. Next time you come back, I will move a small bench, sit here, and tell you this experience in detail. Are you looking forward to it?"
Lin Mo said some random things again, and then said goodbye to his mother.
Poof!
The mother in the pool jumped out of the water and sprayed a ball of water at Lin Mo.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Poof!
Another ball of water.
"I know you are reluctant to let me go, but I went out to do some errands and came back right away. Why are you scolding me? Dad, hurry up, change someone quickly. Mom wants to scold someone, so come here quickly."
There was a lot of excitement.
Lin Mo's explanation before leaving this time is finally over.
Of course, Lin Mo also said hello to other neighbors. Although everyone was reluctant to leave, they also knew that Lin Mo could not stay in the community forever.
Lin Mo was short of manpower this time, but he did not mobilize the residents of the community.
The main reason is that everyone's strength has become different from theirs.
Only people of Doudou's level can really help him. Even Butcher and Nie Hong are already somewhat lacking in strength.
So let’s all live in peace and quiet.
But there was one resident that Lin Mo especially wanted to take with him.
When I opened the door of Studio No. 409, as expected, Zhang Meng was nowhere to be found.
If Linmott wants to take a neighbor with him, it must be Zhang Meng.
According to this guy, his home has reached a new level. He doesn't go out at all, he just likes to travel in different painting circles.
Moreover, she was extremely vigilant and would not go to the painting world that was too dangerous.
Lin Mo nicknamed this guy Zhang Meng Little Fox.
Very cunning.
But this time, Lin Mo had made up his mind to trick this senior otaku out no matter what.
And she has to be willing to do it.
Let’s ask the ghost paintings one by one and ask Zhang Meng which painting that guy is in.
But this time the painted ghosts covered their mouths and didn't speak.
"What do you mean? Your skin is itchy?"
Lin Mo's voice rose a few degrees, but the painting ghosts still pretended to be confused.
This is obviously wrong.
"Is this what Zhang Meng told you to do?" Lin Mo immediately thought of a possibility, or rather, it was the only possibility.
Unless Zhang Meng issued a gag order, it would be impossible for these ghost painters to deny themselves face.
"Don't say it, right? It doesn't matter. You can use your fingers or eyes to signal. Don't worry, I won't betray you. And don't you want to take a vacation? Zhang Meng is like an unscrupulous boss and a capitalist with evil intentions.
, I will take her away, and you can relax for a few days, which is equivalent to a holiday, don't you want?"
Not to mention, after Lin Mo's few words, many ghost painters were moved.
It was obvious that he was very conflicted and struggling in his heart.
"Besides, I am the district chief. I have the final say here. Even if Zhang Meng knows that I am protecting you, what are you afraid of? Can she still eat you?"
"I announce that whoever tells Zhang Meng where he is, I will promote him to floor manager on the 4th floor of Building 2."
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward!
A painting ghost takes action.
The other party was trembling, and with a mixture of hesitation, fear and expectation, he pointed at one of the paintings.
"Roger it, brother, your road has widened. I announce that from now on, you will be the floor manager on the 4th floor of Building 2. Come on, everyone applauds and welcomes you."
Lin Mo was the first to applaud.
There were a few sparse applauses in the room.
"Don't worry, I will protect you if I say I will protect you."
"I said I would kill you, so I will kill you. How dare you betray me?" Suddenly, Zhang Meng's angry voice came from the painting, and then she got out and reached out to catch the ghost painting.
It turns out that this guy has been hiding in the dark and observing.
Or maybe we say she is Zhang Meng’s little fox, she is so ghostly.
Lin Mo went up and grabbed Zhang Meng.
"Let go, I will strangle this traitor to death." Zhang Meng was furious at this moment, and the painting ghost who had been promoted to the fourth floor administrator was obviously very scared.
If Lin Mo hadn't supported it, it would have been kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.
After all the hard work, Zhang Meng was hugged.
I have no choice but to hold on.
Lin Mo and Zhang Meng said, you can't say that I am acting like a gangster, you forced me to do it.
"Hurry up and let go of me, or I'll strangle you to death!" Zhang Meng was hugged and unable to move, so he could only talk nonsense at this moment.
"If I let go of you, you would strangle me to death. I'm stupid. I won't let go. You can think it over before you speak." Lin Mo hugged her tighter.
In the end, it almost made Zhang Mengle angry.
"Okay, I won't pinch you, and I won't pinch it either. This should be okay, right?" Zhang Meng relented.
Mainly in terms of strength, she really couldn't defeat Lin Mo.
"Empty words." Lin Mo said.
"Don't push yourself too far."
"Look, look, you know you are dishonest."
"Relax, I'll fuck you!"
"Don't talk nonsense. My uncle is in the community, and my aunt is also there. They are in a good relationship. Don't ruin family relationships."
"I'll fuck you!" Zhang Meng was also furious. She was hugged by two sides and couldn't catch Lin Mo. All she could use now was her mouth.
After spotting it, he bit Lin Mo's chest.
"Holy shit, let go, let go quickly!"
Lin Mo screamed in surprise.
Zhang Meng bit into the meat with a look of pride and ecstasy.
Relent?
What are you thinking, I will bite you to death.
"Don't blame me for being unjust if you are unkind." Lin Mo roared in pain, lowered his head and bit Zhang Meng's ear.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Zhang Meng shivered all over, like a deflated rubber ball that suddenly went soft.
Lin Mo's attack directly hit the vital point with a fatal attack, causing several times of critical hits. Zhang Meng was instantly defeated.
But when a girl fights, there is one last move, which is also the most lethal move.
cry!
Zhang Meng cried.
Lin Mo saw that this was an admission of defeat, so he let go of the opponent.
A fighting battle between men and women ceased at this moment.
"Actually, what I want to say is..."
"Don't say it. I won't listen even if you say it. I don't want to talk to you at all."
Zhang Meng glanced at Lin Mo fiercely at this moment, then turned around and got into a painting.
She probably thinks that if she can't afford to offend her, I can afford to hide.
And you can't stay here forever. When you leave, I will operate on that traitorous boy, and you still won't be able to protect him.
Zhang Meng is a woman with a strong desire for revenge.
But she didn't know that after she got into the painting, Lin Mo walked over and took off the painting, carried it away, and stuffed it into a cardboard box.
"It's all done!"
Lin Mo thought that it would be extremely difficult to persuade Zhang Meng to go with him, so he would not persuade her and just take away the painting where she was.
When the time comes, she will surely be surprised when she comes out of the painting.
Then why did Lin Mo have to bring Zhang Meng with him this time? This is Lin Mo’s plan.
Zhang Meng's paintings are very powerful. They are so powerful that they can directly open a channel regardless of distance or even dimension. Perhaps, Zhang Meng can be asked to draw a scene inside the Gluttonian, so that it can be connected to the Gluttonian.
Of course this is not Lin Mo's purpose.
Because even if He and the Gluttony had established some kind of demarcation channel, they still couldn't drag the Gluttony out.
To drag it out, it must be a large ship at least the same size as the Glutton.
Silence.
If there is information about Silence, or even pictures, then Zhang Meng will come in handy.
Besides, it's impossible to keep running back to find her for this matter.
Lin Mo thought about it and decided to just take her away without stopping.
All the things that needed to be done were done, and Lin Mo ordered Doudou in the box to pay close attention to the paintings in the box.
This time when he went out, the cardboard box was filled with things, including a ghost painting that Zhang Meng was hiding in, and a ghost painting that led to the dreamland on the second floor. If he had time, Lin Mo had to get in and take a look at Liu Jia.
It's a pity that she can't come out of the dream city on the second floor, otherwise, she would definitely be a powerful help.
…
Returning to Qianlong City, Lin Mo first went to report to the director.
Regarding the investigation of the "Death Chamber" game, the General Administration obviously attaches great importance to it and even held a special meeting to understand it.
Fortunately, Lin Mo knows a lot about this game and his introduction is quite comprehensive.
After learning that the Death Chamber game can actually connect to the nightmare world and even deeper dreams, the General Administration's attention has been directly raised to a higher level.
All departments of the General Administration were mobilized, and the Academy of Sciences also joined in the study.
It took several days just to do these things.
Lin Mo took some time off from his busy schedule to retrieve information related to the 'Silent Number' in the file system.
You can't find anything by just relying on the three words "Silence".
This is also normal.
Because the Silence is the name of the captain, if someone sees it, they will probably name it "ghost ship" or "ghost ship".
So using these two keywords to query, the information is really found, but then the amount of information is too much, and it needs to be screened one by one.
Lin Mo has basically been doing this in his free time these days.
Even when Lin Nan came to chat with him, Lin Mo didn't have much time.
Finally Lin Nan got angry, so Lin Mo and this special expert played games in Lin Nan's small room for a while.
"I heard that you are investigating the game "Chamber of Death" recently?" Lin Nan asked while holding the controller and playing.
Lin Mo said yes.
"I want to play it too, but unfortunately, that game can only be played in the real world. Hey, it would be great if I didn't die."
Lin Mo saw that the little guy was a little depressed and began to persuade him.
Let’s just say that the game is not fun at all. In fact, it is connected to certain scenes in the nightmare world. In essence, it is still in the nightmare world.
"Then I want to play too." Lin Nan shouted.
Lin Mo said that he had to ask Professor Xie about this. Maybe Professor Xie and the others could develop VR equipment that could be used in the nightmare world, and you would be finished.
"It makes sense!" Lin Nan's eyes lit up, and the game in his hand was no longer good, so he went straight out to find Professor Xie.
Lin Mo quickly stuffed a breakaway bean, woke up, made himself a cup of tea, sat in front of the computer and continued to browse the files.
From the emergence of the nightmare incident to the present, there are quite a few files involving "ghost ships" and "ghost ships", most of which occurred along the coast or somewhere near rivers.
Lin Mo excluded places like rivers and lakes.
If the Silence is as big as the Glutton, then ordinary rivers probably can't carry such a big ship.
Moreover, the captain encountered the Silence at sea, so Lin Mo set his target on the strange events that occurred in the sea.
Even though the scope has been reduced, there is still a lot of content.
Apart from meetings to report work, Lin Mo spent the rest of his time in front of the computer reading information.
"Weird fishing boat incident, fishing boat? Are you kidding? It's definitely not this, skip it."
Lin Mo put this file into the recycling bin.
"The ghost ship incident occurred in xx month of xx year. Last night at sea, the fishermen saw a red ghost ship after falling into a dream. The ghost ship was a wooden two-masted structure. A wooden ship? Definitely not, skip it."
"Is there an island that doesn't exist? There are people singing on the island? It's not like singing der, so skip it."
Everything is difficult at the beginning. Lin Mo knows that even if he goes through all these files, he may not be able to find the 'Silence' he wants, but for now, this is all he can do.
