Qiu Yu, who only wore ordinary casual clothes, stood by the window on the third floor of a slightly old villa, which was also the top floor, quietly observing this city that was different from what he imagined.
It's not high-tech, nor is there any weird place. It's just a city similar to the real world. The only difference is that this city is too quiet, just like a ghost town.
Qiu Yu moved his eyes away from the window and glanced at the three people lying on the floor. The ability to sense the spread unfolded. A large amount of data gathered into Qiu Yu's brain like water. Not only did the three people's bodies instantly
The situation was completely analyzed, and even their awakening time was predicted accurately to the second.
The three of them are ordinary people, and there is nothing special about them. But just because they are too ordinary, Qiu Yu can be sure that they are not participants in the game of destruction.
An NPC in this world? A temporary guest appearance by the regulator? A product of exchange from the other party's civilization? A mission character?
There is no definite information, and inversely proportional to that there are almost infinite possibilities.
"It would be great if the exchange was for real-time strategy. Now you can immediately use civilization points to exchange for game information." - This thought flashed through Qiu Yu's mind for a moment. But he threw it away in the next moment.
Qiuyu sometimes regrets, because as long as he manages it properly, regret can also become a kind of strength. But he never wastes time on regrets. What's more, it is far from saving a thousand civilization points now, it is just one
Something to regret.
If he didn't interfere, there would still be seven minutes and thirty-five seconds left before the first person to wake up. Using this time, Qiu Yu sorted out the known information.
Nearly eleven hours ago, Qiuyu chose the city as the game scene based on the principle of maximizing profits. But this was only the beginning of a chain of civilization point consumption.
Cities are just types, and the next step is to determine the size. They are remote mountain villages, micro-villages, ordinary towns, medium-sized towns, large cities, prosperous giants, world capitals, and unprecedented countries.
Except for remote mountain villages, all of them need to be exchanged for civilization points. One point for micro-villages, five points for ordinary towns, and ten points for medium-sized towns. So far, it is still acceptable. But Qiuyu's plan is to form a comprehensive base, so naturally
It is impossible to go to those remote villages with few buildings. Moreover, the city option has resulted in very small space for activities. If any countryside is used as the game location, let alone fighting, there may not even be a few thousand people standing in the Tower of Civilization.
Effortless.
But as if it was against Qiu Yu's plan. The exchange price for large cities suddenly rose to 200 points, the prosperous giant city 1100 points, the world capital 8600 points, and the so-called unprecedented country actually required a full 10 points.
Thousands of points.
After some weighing, Qiu Yu chose the prosperous giant city. The civilization points were thus reduced to 1,548.
Next are options such as climate environment, population quality, urban conditions, etc. Naturally, the more favorable the exchange price, the higher the exchange price. Fortunately, this setting is not used to deliberately force civilizations that are in short supply of civilization points to death. Just like remote mountain villages are free.
In terms of climate, severe weather and disasters are free. In terms of population quality, thugs are free. In urban conditions, long-term desolation is free...
There may be free goodies in other places, but in the game of destruction...at least Qiu Yu has never seen it. And the names of those free things are scary just by hearing them. Compared with the term "free", it is more
It's like reminding you that you need to use civilization to deal with those disasters.
Qiu Yu had to spend one to five civilization points on each item to eliminate the disaster. When all the options were completed, there were only 1,400 civilization points left, and he only got one thing that looked different from all aspects.
An extremely ordinary city.
In the following time, Qiuyu withdrew 60 survival points from a public account selling game experience, and exchanged them for agility enhancement and physical fitness enhancement. He originally planned to withdraw some more, buy something and store it in the inherent space, but he was supervised
The reporter told me that the reason why the inherent space is called the inherent space is because the inherent space is bound to the user. Strictly speaking, Qiu Yu's inherent space is bound to the mind control body called the skill of skill. Qian Xiao is better.
, both the main body and the mental body have inherent spaces. However, because they will use new mental bodies in the next game, they cannot use the inherent space.
However, just as the regulators of the Destiny Clan can solve this small problem, the regulators of the earth civilization are also capable of solving it, but the price that needs to be paid is far beyond what Qiuyu can afford, so Qiuyu had to give up this problem, which may be enough to reverse the situation.
The convenient power of game outcomes.
For the rest of the time, Qiu Yu spent all his time memorizing the almost endless redemption of civilization points in this game. It was not until the moment before the game started that he left three notes.
First, if you disperse after entering the game, go to the center point of the city to meet up while ensuring your own safety. Why? Because the center point is the closest to anywhere.
Second, according to previous experience, this city is likely to be the future base, so try not to cause damage here. If there are residents, you must do your best to protect them.
Third, do not use force first. The advantage of this is that when facing an intelligent enemy, you will not expose yourself prematurely and cause hostility.
But the third one is for others.
Even after redeeming the full level of agility and physique, even after finding a way to use the spread of perception in combat, Qiu Yu still lacks self-confidence. So when it comes to him, the third method is not a matter of force...
..
There are still thirty seconds before the first person wakes up. Qiu Yu walked over carefully, closed his eyes and lay next to them.
What suits Qiu Yu is to completely integrate into this world.
"Ah, my head hurts...ah...hey, are you okay?"
The first person to wake up shook the people around him in panic, and then remembered to check the heartbeat and breathing. After confirming that the other person was still alive, he checked Qiu Yu and the other person separately.
It can be judged from this behavior that he is not familiar with the environment or other people. This makes Qiu Yu feel at ease a lot.
After all this tossing, everyone woke up one after another.
In this inexplicable environment, the first person to wake up is naturally the most suspicious person. So it is logical that Qiu Yu and the two people who woke up later formed a natural alliance to be wary of this person who was probably a kidnapper.
"For God's sake, you have to believe me. I only woke up less than a minute before you. And do you think I can kidnap three people by myself?"
After observing for a while and confirming that there was no fifth person here, the others reluctantly accepted his statement. The next step was the introduction of the four people to each other. Regardless of whether it is true or false, in this case, knowing more about each other will give you greater peace of mind.
Feeling can be increased by one point.
The person who woke up first, as the object of suspicion, first introduced himself, "My name is Mattley, and I am a doctor."
The second person then said, "Ivan, a university lecturer."
The third person was a woman. Seeing that Qiu Yu showed grace at such an inappropriate time and gave priority to women, she smiled bitterly and said, "I am Yui Inoue, just call me Inoue. I am currently unemployed."
"My name is Qiu Yu. I am a student by profession."
Qiu Yu frowned as he spoke. No matter how you look at these three people, they are all typical Asians. The first person said his name is Ma Li and he can be regarded as an overseas Chinese. The second person is Yi.
Foreign names like Wan are a bit strange. But I still can't see anyone else having the slightest abnormal reaction to these foreign names. When the third name was announced, Qiu Yu felt a sense of incongruity all over his body.
Europeans and Americans, a Russian, a Japanese plus myself and a Chinese, does this imply anything? And there are more coordination points than that. Why do you only report your name and occupation? Generally speaking, whether it is to eliminate other people's
Whether to express hostility or to express one's goodwill, one should say a few more words, right?
"Do you still remember how you got here?" Qiu Yu guided several people to exchange more information.
Mattley pressed his temples hard, "I'm also wondering, how did I get here?"
Ivan looked at Qiu Yu and Inoue, "I can't remember anything."
Inoue pursed his lips and shook his head vigorously.
"I just remember that before I came here, I seemed to be..." Qiu Yu squatted on the ground holding his head, looking like he was thinking in pain.
Seeing Qiu Yu squatting down and not speaking again for a long time, Matli coughed, "Maybe it's a little strange to say this... but in fact, don't say how you got here, except for your name and your occupation
Except for that, I can’t remember anything else.”
"Okay. Me too." Ivan seemed to be relieved.
"Mass kidnapping plus mass amnesia!"
Inoue also indirectly expressed his situation. As for Qiu Yu, he is still squatting on the ground, and it seems that there is no need to ask.
"What should we do now? Call the police?"
"Then which one of you has a mobile phone? Except for these clothes, everything is missing. Well... although I can't remember what I'm missing."
"Let's look around the house first."
After a brief discussion, Qiu Yu also stood up and joined the search that was destined to be fruitless.
This villa is not small, with an area of nearly 200 square meters on each floor. In addition to the upper three floors, there is also a basement. Although the house looks a bit old, the interior is quite modern, with all appliances complete. It is only one floor
A light dusting indicated that no one had lived here for a while.
In a bedroom on the second floor, he found a mobile phone whose brand Qiu Yu couldn't recognize. The phone still had power, which made several people cheer, but then they discovered that there was no signal, which caused a sigh.
Qiu Yu was looking for something different from them from the beginning. When the three of them were at a loss about their future destiny, Qiu Yu found a city map on the wall of an adjacent room.
This map occupies an entire wall. But even so, the text on the map is still small and difficult to read. Only the words "Taishan City" on the map and "One to One Hundred Thousand" in the lower right corner are more eye-catching.
Qiu Yu's head felt dizzy, one to a hundred thousand! This means that this is a super city with a length of more than 300 kilometers from east to west, more than 250 kilometers from north to south, and a total area of more than 70,000 square kilometers!
