Chapter 204 - Performing

"Just tell me like this, is it right ma?" Oka put his hands in his pockets and asked calmly, "You know that only one player can report a ghost ba. The reported ghost will be ejected from the dungeon, so whoever reports first can advance. Maybe I will be the first."

David shook his head: "It doesn't matter, there must be more than one ghost."

Oka was a little surprised by his words: "Are you so sure?"

David answered as a matter of course: "In fact, after entering the dungeon, I have been wondering why it is a team battle dungeon? Is it just pure bad luck? Especially after my partner was eliminated. I have been a partner with him for many years and know his strength. He shouldn't have been eliminated so quickly. He has always been very calm, unless he encounters an emergency that he has never encountered before, which makes him unable to react. There must be ghosts in this dungeon. And the number of ghosts is more than two. Because there are too many ghosts in the team, the dungeon will be promoted to a team battle dungeon. Then players who advance at the same time will be concentrated in this dungeon."

Oka touched his chin: "Wait, if you infer this way, Isn't it that ghosts are mixed in with the prisoners in your original team 1? But now the remaining prisoners in team 1..."

David's face was gloomy: "I am the only one left."

Oka: "Maybe you think too much."

David looked at him and asked: "Do you know how many cards ghosts have ma? Do you know what the effects of the cards in their hands are ma? Are you sure that ghosts will not change their identities and replace one of you in the last mall level ma?"

Oka was speechless.

Of course he didn't know. In fact, he had played so many times and only encountered a ghost once. That was a long time ago. There was an obviously stupid guy in the team. After introducing him to the ghosts, the guy immediately pointed to an NPC and reported that the other party was a ghost. Oka didn't have time to tell the idiot what to pay attention to at that time. Unexpectedly, the NPC was really a ghost. The idiot won on the spot and didn't have to participate in the next game. Is this a stupid person with stupid luck ma?

No, Oka doesn't think so. Reporting ghosts is not a casual report. Without any basis, they talk nonsense. If they succeed, it is good luck. If they fail, they will lose points. He tasted the sweetness once, so he thought there would be a second time. He often reported, thinking that the most he could do was to fail and he would not lose anything ne. In fact, the lost points were quietly deducted.

Don't underestimate points. Points are the basis for players to upgrade. The promotion from primary to intermediate dungeons and from intermediate to advanced dungeons all rely on the accumulation of points, just like experience bar for game upgrades. For players, this is more important than game coins. When you advance to advanced dungeons, the points are reset then accumulated again. At this time, points can be used to offset game coins. Of course, it is limited to the card mall, and it is discounted. Even so, it is enough. Do you know how expensive the cards in the mall are ma? One point is much more valuable than a game coin.

The most pitfall of this game is that it never displays it to the outside world, and never informs you of the increase or deduction. No one knows how many points they have now, and the system of advanced players will only tell you how much discount card can be offset with points.

Because there is no reminder for deducting points, you can only calculate whether you have too much or too little through discounts when you plan to buy cards. There's a high-level dungeon master who is too idle and didn't plan to go home, only likes to play games and make guides has personally tested that points will be deducted in many situations in the game, such as attacking NPCs or other players without reason, including but not limited to knife-wielding or hooliganism, using cards to attack and restrict the other party's actions are not included, and reporting without basis will also deduct points, although this is less than the deduction of hooliganism. In addition, if you fail to do anything after entering the dungeon, you will also deduct points, but this point is even less than reporting.

In order to make a guide, the master has tried almost all kinds of situations, and was almost banned from entering dungeons forever, and was fined a lot of money.

In general, this game prevents players from playing the game passively in any form. Some people speculate that this may involve the fundamental and core of the existence of the game. Only when players actively play games can the game gain something in this seemingly meaningless dungeon.

"Okay ba, I know now there's ghosts." Oka said, "You also know that you will lose points if you fail ba."

"A large part of the points will be deducted after failing to advance to the dungeon, so I need to restart the dungeon after failing to advance." David said quickly, "Compared to these, the points deducted after reporting failure can be ignored."

Oka: ...

No, it's still quite a lot.

But the shipwreck is right in front of us, so don't even think about passing the level normally. If it's confirmed that there is a ghost, it's still worth a gamble.

"Let's cooperate ba." Oka said to David while sitting on the soft bed, "Didn't you convince me just to cooperate ma? Tell me ba, how do you find more than two ghosts?"

"Even ghosts want to live." David said, "Ghosts must be eliminated later than players to be considered victorious, so whoever is anxious to survive may be a ghost."

Oka sneered: "Hey, hey, this method doesn't work. Now on this ship, just talking about NPCs, no one wants to die by setting, do you know how many people that is ma? Players must choose to survive, they will be eliminated if they die."

"That's why I need your help." David said, "Further test and find the real ghost among the surviving NPCs and players."

Oka touched his chin: "Including the prison guards ma?"

David said in a deep voice: "Including."

**

"Separate actions? Why?"

Rong Zheng: "Because it's exposed. If they have been forced into a dead end and haven't guessed that there are ghosts here, either they have never come into contact with ghosts and won't think about it, or they are a fool."

Bai Leshui: ...

Okay ba, he couldn't refute this.

"We have no reason to act together all the time. You are the team leader of team 1." Rong Zheng pointed at Bai Leshui, then pointed at himself, "I am a prison guard of another team who has stopped working." In the early stage, it can be understood that Hicks didn't want to die, so it was understandable that he followed Li to find Agatha, but now Li gave up looking for Agatha and wanted to see if the prisoners in his team were still obedient, so Hicks didn't need to follow him. Especially since the prisoners were all players, unlike NPCs who basically don't think about why you do something as long as it doesn't violate your character.

"So what are you going to..." Before Bai Leshui finished speaking, Rong Zheng covered his mouth.

Rong Zheng winked at Bai Leshui, indicating that someone was coming, and while letting go of his hand, he said loudly: "What I plan to do has nothing to do with you. I am no longer a prison guard. It's your business if you want to continue to manage those prisoners. I don't want to die yet."

Bai Leshui understood and snorted coldly: "Don't want to die? No one can run away now, where are you going to go? On the deck?"

The footsteps gradually approached, after hearing the sound, they paused for a moment, then quickened the pace and rushed over.

"Get out of the way!"

"No, you have to come to help!" Bai Leshui roared louder than Rong Zheng. Rong Zheng grabbed Bai Leshui's collar with all his strength, his angry face was so close to his, their warm breath sprayed on each other's face, Bai Leshui tried to keep a cold expression, suddenly Rong Zheng came over and licked his lips, Bai Leshui's legs almost went limp.

Damn, they were performing ne, to hell stealing kiss.

Bai Leshui stared at Rong Zheng with hatred, finally the owner of the footsteps turned and came to this corridor, there were not one person but two people, a man and a woman, Bai Leshui turned his head and stared at them, recognizing them.

"Damn it, how did you sneak out of the dance hall." Bai Leshui struggled to push Rong Zheng away, wanting to rush over to teach the two people a lesson, then suddenly found that the two prisoners were not under his direct management, the machine electric shock switch on their necks was not on him. He could only stare at them vigilantly.

"Where did Allen and Aisha die?" Allen and the female prison guard Aisha were the prison guards who directly managed the two prisoners, Bai Leshui's memory was pretty good.

The two players looked at each other, the female player stepped forward with a smile and said, "Mr. Prison Guard, may I ask how to go to the captain's room?"

Bai Leshui sneered, "Looking for the captain's room? Are you still thinking about hijacking the ship ma?"

"How is that possible? We are just trying to survive. Now everyone knows that the ship is going to sink." The male player said.

Bai Leshui's face was very ugly: "The ship sank? Who told you that the ship was fine."

"If the ship was fine, why would he want to run away ne? Team leader, your team members all ran away, so we can leave the dance hall." The female player said, "Now everyone knows that the ship is going to sink. I know what you are afraid of. Are you afraid that we will riot? Now no one wants to riot. Everyone wants to live."

Bai Leshui gritted his teeth and frowned.

"Instead of dying together, it is better to work together and find a way to survive." The male player said word by word. Rong Zheng noticed that the male player's fingers moved slightly, he looked at Bai Leshui.

Bai Leshui's eyes began to become blurred, and he lowered his eyes, as if he was persuaded.

The female player gave the male player a look, and the male player continued: "First, find a way to survive, the execution can be discussed later. We will not run away. We are all on this ship, where can we run to ne? You agree with me ba, team leader?"

Bai Leshui's body was shaking slightly: "I agree..."

Rong Zheng pushed Bai Leshui away and hit the wall of the corridor, asking: "Can you have a way to survive if you find the captain's room?"

The male player looked at Rong Zheng. He was not originally in the team that Hicks belonged to, so he did not know the prison guard, but this did not prevent the two from talking.

"There will always be a way."

Rong Zheng smiled: "Okay a, as long as I can survive, I don't mind cooperating with people like you. I know where the captain's room is, but I don't think going in the captain's room can be of any help. There is nothing there."

The male player and the female player looked at each other, and the female player insisted: "We have to see it before we can decide."

Rong Zheng: "Okay, I'll take you there."

After speaking, he walked past Bai Leshui and walked towards the two people. When he passed by Bai Leshui, he pushed him back unkindly. Bai Leshui acted confused and did not give any response.

"Is the effect of the card too strong?" The female player asked the male player in a low voice when she saw Bai Leshui's situation. Morever he didn't wake up after being pushed twice. Is this a bit wrong?

The male player shook his head and whispered, "I don't know. This card will produce different effects depending on the other party's mental state. Maybe he was too emotional just now? So the hypnotic effect is a bit strong?"

Female player: "What should I do?"

Male player: "Don't worry about him, there's someone leading the way anyway."

The female player thought what the male player said made sense, so she ignored Bai Leshui and followed Rong Zheng.

After the footsteps of the three people were completely gone, Bai Leshui raised his head and rubbed his temples.

Confused? Many low-quality cards can only confuse NPCs, and the effect on players and ghosts is very weak. He was in a trance for a few seconds then woke up. So Rong Zheng didn't need to push him at all, he was not hypnotized.

Let Rong Zheng deal with the two players ba. As for himself, according to the character identity setting, go to other prison guards to get the electric shock switch back. The ship should still have more than an hour to sink, so just muddle through ba.
