Chapter 303: Bianyu's Pen, Modify Task
From her, Li Nuo roughly knew the information of "End Corridor".
The abnormality of End is diversity.
For example, when Li Nuo met Master Mirror, his first thought was not to run away, but how to get benefits from the high-dimensional demon, which was no longer a normal person's thinking.
If it were the players of "End", they would think about how to make Master Mirror give birth to a son with themselves. There is no benefit in such a suicidal approach, it is just fun.
The reason lies in the difference of the original rules.
Before level 25, the more tragic the task is completed, the more benefits the reward will get, and the monthly gold coins can be reduced.
This has led to a large number of players liking to die in the script.
When people develop a habit, they will form a thinking mode similar to "muscle memory", that is, if you do too many crazy things, you will become crazy.
In the level 25 train assessment task, half of the carriage is disabled.
After passing the train assessment, these guys are completely abnormal.
It doesn't matter whether they live or die, they just want to be interesting.
Just like Gao Cang, he can't beat Li Nuo, let alone challenge Leviathan.
But he has a chance to escape, but he has to fight. What he pursues is not to get any rewards, but how to make himself feel happy after getting the rewards. Do you say they are fun people? Not even that, they are a group of illogical schizophrenia.
After level 25, when they come into contact with players from other corridors, their neurosis becomes more and more severe, and they can't wait to tear the people in other corridors apart, not because of rewards, but because of jealousy.
Why do we live in dire straits while you play with birds in Hawaii.
The only way to curb these bastards is to be stronger than them and not be afraid of their backstabs.
"So what is the main world?"
While Li Nuo was talking, he pointed his finger in front of Set's mouth, asking her not to answer in a hurry.
"If you lie, I will turn you into shit."
Set was stunned for a moment.
"What kind of strange spell is this?"
"It's not a spell."
Li Nuo pointed at the gorilla driver.
"Gorillas eat people."
While speaking, the big gorilla took out a banana and stuffed it into his mouth without even peeling it, then chewed it with a cold expression, and his hard eyes traveled all over Set's body.
It was calculating the cooking methods for each part.
"I said, I must tell the truth."
Seth continued to tell without hesitation.
There are ten main worlds of the End, which are very diverse, ranging from some soul-like games to arcades.
It is not like "Endless" or "Eternal Life" that have a classification, "End" has no classification, it is like a garbage dump, everything is thrown into that world.
When Li Nuo heard this, he shook his head.
"Say something else, I don't want to hear it."
"Ah?"
Seth, who was sitting under the gorilla, was stunned for a moment.
"Then..."
"What's wrong with your team."
Li Nuo held Set's hand.
The woman frowned slightly.
Suddenly, her index finger nail was pulled out by Li Nuo!
"Hiss——!"
Seth didn't look like he was in pain.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
Li Nuo put Seth's nails into his pocket.
"It's just a hobby. Go on, your team."
Seth bit the finger whose nails were pulled out, and began to describe his team with a smile.
A team of five.
Takakura is the captain.
But the captain is not the strongest, this is normal.
"So what is the specific situation of your team?"
"I don't know~"
Seth was straightforward.
She was forced to join that damn team because she mastered the group protection technique that can block team information.
Seth mastered a variant of white magic, similar to a spell that does not cause harm to the enemy but only protects herself. In Cyberpunk, she is a high-end hacker.
In her words, if she wants to run, it is difficult for anyone to find her, but her combat power is too low. When she encounters that kind of crazy guy, she can only accept her fate with her cheap knees, so players like her often change teams.
She joined Takakura's team in the last script. There are five people in this team including her.
Captain Takakura, deceased.
There are three others. Seth meant that he only knew the vice-captain.
Isabella Crowe.
Witch.
"Friend... how about we make a deal?"
Seth pursed his lips.
"If you can kill Gao Cang, maybe you can kill Isabella. Help me kill that bitch. I'll be your second-in-command."
"Well, tell me first."
Li Nuo listened calmly.
Seth took a deep breath.
"A user of curse magic, and a summoner, with a body as flexible as a cat, a battle mage... very strong, I can only tell you that Isabella is much stronger than Gao Cang, and she is Gao Cang's lover. If you kill Gao Cang, she will definitely find a way to kill you."
A mechanical witch from the world of Blasphemy.
Using a painful way of growth, for example, looking for love in the script world, waiting to be intoxicated with love and then killing the lover with your own hands, letting yourself play the role of a wandering and helpless person, so as to activate the magic brought by the "painful faith" of the original world, to strengthen your combat effectiveness.
The weapon in her hand is a long whip with thorns fed by the [Snake Snake Fruit].
She also knows the "Tuckers Fighting Technique" that Gao Cang is good at.
A magical beast that can summon fire.
"Okay, that's enough."
Li Nuo stopped listening after hearing this. Seth's words cannot be fully believed, and the title of this woman is [Riddler]. The specific function of this title is still unknown. I am afraid that if I say too much, the false will become true.
"[Critical], why did you cooperate with them?"
"Because Gao Cang lost to a blind woman." Seth curled his lips: "Then Isabella was scared to tears by the man wearing Artorius armor."
"So powerful?"
"Well, in Isabella's words, the man named Kroyd has the breath of the abyss on him and is a player who has broken through the level limit."
"Tell me why you let us kill Isabella, you are a team."
Li Nuo stopped listening and interrupted Seth directly, asking her to tell the so-called reason for the transaction.
Seth was asked about his sore spot.
"Because she's very pretty, I'm jealous."
Li Nuo smiled and nodded, then asked: "Where is Cloyd?"
Seth: "It is said... he went overseas. Anyway, outside this country, if you take a boat for about five hours, you can probably meet them..."
"Yeah, I see."
Li Nuo put the teacup upside down on the ground.
"I've asked all the questions."
A cold light flashed.
Bang!
Cha Bai suddenly swung the hammer and turned it into an axe blade to chop off Seth's head.
The axe blade cut into the ground, splashing a piece of bloody gravel, and Seth's head rolled to the side of Li Nuo, his eyes wide open.
Li Nuo laughed: "Only the last part about [Critical One] and your reason for wanting to kill Isabella is true, the rest is half true and half false."
He and Cha Bai had an agreement.
The teacup was turned upside down, representing a sudden attack without recognizing any relatives.
When Seth was talking just now, there was something wrong with his facial micro-expression, and she said that she didn't know about other people, which was a pure lie, but she just didn't want to say it.
As for the deal to kill Isabella.
Li Nuo was sure that the reason she wanted to kill the leader of her team was true, because beauty kills, and the seemingly absurd reason was actually the most real.
The problem with Set was that she shouldn't have said that she would be a traitor.
This sentence also has another meaning, "I am a spy who infiltrated your team."
But no matter what, at least Li Nuo was sure of one thing.
"Your team is very united. I killed Gao Cang, and the rest of you will definitely come to kill me. The longer the time drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for me."
A smile suddenly popped out of Set's severed head.
The head and body were separated, and [Step on Shadow] was invalid.
Her head suddenly exploded!
The gas of the poisonous powder spread everywhere. Li Nuo pulled Cha Bai away, and saw that behind the poisonous fog, the woman's body suddenly rose!
She didn't even want her own head and ran away in big strides. There was an illusion under her feet, forming a motorcycle, which took her away in an instant.
"He's headless... can he still live?" Cha Bai was surprised: "Robot?"
"Maybe 'Durararayuki no Headless Horseman'."
Li Nuo said casually, took out the nail he had just pulled from Set's hand, put it on his nose and sniffed it.
"Driver, let's get ready."
The gorilla driver obviously hasn't recovered from the scene of Set not wanting his head.
The guy's surprised eyes lasted for a few seconds, then turned back to his resolute eyes, holding a banana cigar and went to drive.
The two squeezed in the co-pilot seat, the space was narrow, and Cha Bai sat on his lap.
The gorilla driver glanced at it.
Took out a sign.
It probably means that driving is prohibited [beep].
"What are you thinking about..." Li Nuo smiled and said, "I'll tell you the position, you drive, get out of this area first, and go north."
The gorilla driver took out another sign, which read: The seat can bear 400 kilograms.
Cha Bai's face turned pale, and he promised, "I won't move..."
The car started.
Cha Bai stuck to him and asked, "Let's go find that woman now... How dangerous is it..."
Li Nuo asked, "Which of her words are true and which are false?"
Cha Bai shook his head.
Li Nuo: "Except for the information about their team, they are basically true, but they say one lie in ten sentences."
"Then..."
"But she feels like she's not just talking to me."
Cha Bai frowned, "Does she have the ability to teleport?"
"I don't know, but what if she does?" Li Nuo said, "Cha Bai, from the beginning to now, we have been passive."
Cha Bai shook his head slightly, "If you mean the active attack on Gao Cang, attracting Set, and dealing with Lockhart and the others before, then I don't think so, at least you are the one who took the initiative."
"But I'm not the one playing chess." Li Nuo said.
[Critical One] had already laid out the cards for the "End Corridor", and many hostile people were watching from behind.
"I have to let them know that it's not them who have found me now, but I can find them at any time."
Li Nuo tightened his fingers around Cha Bai's waist.
"Also, Set doesn't tell the truth, so I want to see how the crazy people in the 'End Corridor' do things."
Cha Bai lowered his eyes.
"Li Nuo..."
Li Nuo smiled: "No need to praise me."
Cha Bai: "No... Don't touch my legs... The driver will be angry..."
Li Nuo calmly withdrew his hand, and a red mist with Set's scent floated in front of his pupils.
The mist passed through the drizzle along the asphalt road.
Set, wearing a motorcycle helmet, stepped out of the car.
She entered a high-rise building.
The clothes on his body were transformed into ordinary work clothes with magic, and then he took out a [Transformer's Head] from the grid of his backpack, and when no one was around, he transformed a new head and inserted it into his neck.
Seth lied a lot.
But it's true that she's not good at fighting.
In their team, the captain is indeed Gao Cang, but it is certainly not Gao Cang who talks about it.
It is true that Gao Cang lost to the blind girl and that the other person was frightened and cried when he saw [Critical Person].
Mu Qiang is one of the characteristics of this group of people.
Even though their level is higher, it is a fact that they are no match for [Critical One] and [Secret Explorer].
So there was a deal.
The [Critical Ones] could not get close to things related to Sauron, so they were entrusted with finding the vase that sealed Sauron.
Seth found out the location of the vase.
The city was where Sauron fought with them, and the vase was found and taken away from the ruins by Akai.
Gao Cang and Seth stayed to look for Akai, while the rest went to other cities to find resources useful to the players.
Now Gao Cang is dead.
Seth walked into the empty room alone. There was only a mattress in the room.
She sat on the mattress and looked at the hills of corpses opposite her. She stood up, pulled out the face from one of the corpses and put it on her face, changing her appearance.
This house was rented by her and Gao Cang, and there were ten killers she hired from Akai as bodyguards outside the house. Their real function was to act as an alarm.
Seth took his cell phone and sent a mission to the group of killers guarding the door.
Then I stood in front of the window sill and saw the truck approaching in the distance.
"Isabella, the person who killed Gao Cang is here, what should I do?"
She took off her eyeballs and spoke to the person on the other side.
"This room obviously has isolated magic protection, why can he find it..."
"Damn it..."
"Isabella, this guy...is no worse than that Croyd."
Outside the drizzle that Seth was watching, the truck was parked on the side of the road.
Cha Bai jumped down, with Li Nuo following behind. At that time, Marjie's voice came from their headsets.
"Are you listening?"
"Um."
Li Nuo looked up at the house and felt a dangerous atmosphere like a devil's cave.
"I found a 'bribe slip from a high-ranking police officer' and a 'chip from the killer organization' in Akai's hideout."
In the simple room, Marger typed code on the tablet with one hand.
He used his prosthetic eyes to scan the data and read the documents sent by the "Killer Organization".
"I can crack the 'chip specially used for missions issued by the killer organization'."
A large block of text appeared on the screen.
"In other words, using the connection port of the terminal in 'home', you can use this thing to post jobs to the killer, but there is a problem..."
He tapped the screen, and a virtual currency balance display popped up.
"Need points."
"What points?"
Li Nuo saw different figures flashing behind the windows in the house guided by the scent.
"I don't know, it should be electronic currency points. I have to check again."
"Can I issue a mission now?"
As Li Nuo listened, he smelled the strong smell of blood.
The rotten smell of the dead and the sweet smell of blood on living hands meant that there was a killer or a gangster organization in the building.
He leans toward killers.
After all, Gao Cang had contact with Akai, so it was normal for Seth to have several killers as bodyguards around him.
"One chance."
Marjie saw the task in Akai's mailbox about killing "Sha Yu".
This task has already been accepted by an individual and cannot be revoked.
The order taker is a trainee killer.
He opened the photo, the little beggar who killed with guns after being beaten in the cafe.
Marger paused with his fingers.
Li Nuo said at this time: "Old Ma, issue a mission to kill Seth."
Marger: "It'll take ten minutes."
"It's so slow." Li Nuo: "Old Ma, please describe to me what I found in Akai."
What Li Nuo was talking about was the "high-level police circuit list" organized by the Chamber of Commerce regarding the "agent" career line, and the "killer mission chip."
Marger elaborated in less than a minute.
In the player competition, due to Sauron's tricks, the original timeline was extended from about one day to half a year.
The above are system modifications.
In the past six months, in order to prevent participants from being too busy and causing trouble, career lines have been set.
Killers, agents, truck drivers, gangsters.
You need to join one of the four lines through the "Prologue" before you can officially start the mission.
The task cycle lasts for five months. During this period, you can earn professional achievements as required. After the five months expires, those who have not completed the task will be eliminated and given a large penalty.
The finishers participate in the final competition.
During this period, Sauron's team is the only team that triggers the mission and is not allowed to participate.
The above quest line is only for "Endless Corridor".
"In other words, we skipped the 'Prologue' directly, and we were even a big step ahead of all the contestants."
While Li Nuo was asking questions, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and handed it to Cha Bai. Victor's contact information was displayed on the cell phone screen.
"That's right."
Marger lit a cigarette.
"Strictly speaking, it's scarier than you think."
The Chamber of Commerce organization is related to the "Agent" quest line. In theory, they can join the "Agent" at any time, but the initial quest benefits are very low.
But after killing Akai, the bribe list obtained is given to the Chamber of Commerce, which can help open a new task channel. That is, as long as the big shots are not killed, the Chamber of Commerce organization can settle things for them and obtain more and better task lines. .
The killer chip that Marjie has cracked now is a special reward for killing the BOSS in Akai.
Chip cracking is extremely difficult.
For Marger, he wouldn't be able to crack it without the special hacking method in the "NieR" world.
After cracking the chip, it means that you can send tasks to killers under certain conditions, and in disguise, you can master all the killer career line resources, and even control some killers.
"Understood."
"What are you going to do?"
"Old Ma, did you hear Sauron's message on the vase?"
"snort……"
Sauron's message has a key content.
[Critical Person] has its own purpose, otherwise it would not target Sauron like this, let alone Li Nuo. Looking back from this sentence, Sauron discovered that the purpose of the [Critical Person] team has something to do with [Identity Holder] relation.
Marjie knew exactly what Li Nuo was thinking.
If it weren't for Cha Bai, Li Nuo would have joined the competition without hesitation.
"We can't escape this time, and Sauron, our ally, is very important to us."
This was Marger's final reminder.
Li Nuo looked at Cha Bai.
"Call Mr. Victor."
…
Victor, who was making something "at home", got the call.
"Oh, Sister Tea."
"Um, are you sure?"
"good."
He hung up the phone.
Pick up the pistol.
Go to the basement.
Team Lockhart was not wiped out.
Lingjiu and Lance were tied here and kept under paralysis for a long time to ensure that they would never wake up.
Half of Victor's face was hidden in shadow.
The black gun pointed at Ling Jiu and Lance sitting in the "health machine".
…
[The "Detroit Immutables" team has been completely destroyed]
[Player team "Humph", do you want to take their place in the competition? 】
As the captain, Marjie chose "yes" without hesitation.
…
[The main mission has been triggered: Player Contest]
[Task difficulty: lv60]
【Rule Description】
[1. There are several participating teams. They can only be small teams and cannot summon guild members. After the teams collide, the winner must be decided. If the remaining number of one party is less than half and the system determines that it must be at a disadvantage, it will be deemed that it can surrender and the winner will be decided. Do you accept surrender?]
[2. You cannot exit the script before the game is completely over or all players are dead]
[4. Each participating team is assigned a professional function. There is a total of five months from joining the professional camp to completing the required task time. If you complete the requirements within the time limit, you will receive a large reward. Those who do not complete the task will be counted as eliminated. , and 70% of all gold coins will be automatically deducted, and occupations will be randomly assigned from killers, freight drivers, gangsters and agents]
[5. The selected profession must complete at least 50 tasks, or 15 difficult tasks, to be deemed to have passed the initial assessment of the competition]
[Mission available areas: four countries in the northern part of the planet]
[Note: In the last month, a region will be selected as the location for the competition to determine the winner]
…
However, on Li Nuo's side, I heard a different voice.
【Player 5900】
[You have invested in a new script and triggered the main task]
[Player 5900, you once walked through the Border Prison area with a crown that changed the direction of the world. Because of the crown that changed the direction of the world, something in the Border Prison accompanied you and will be triggered the next time the main line is opened]
[The new main line has begun]
[This thing is in your pocket]
Li Nuo touched his trouser pocket, then reached into his inner pocket, and took out a very ordinary pencil.
[Modify time strokes]
[Quality: Epic]
[Brief description: Things from the side prison, it can modify the task panel within a certain range, or modify the content of certain things related to the side prison, but only for time]
[Note: This thing can be used three times in total, with an interval of more than two weeks between each time. The specific time depends on the impact of modifying the thing]
Cha Bai looked over and when he saw the pencil panel, he was surprised and subconsciously covered his mouth.
"This is too..."
"It's not that outrageous." Li Nuo clicked on the panel: "There is an upper limit for its modifications. We cannot ask everyone to commit suicide together. It must be modified according to the rules."
According to the current task standard, this pen can modify the task time, but there is a selection scale.
Originally scheduled for half a year, the maximum limit is two years.
As for the lower limit...
Marjie received the prosthetic eye connection screen from Cha Bai.
"Hmph... In this way, I can celebrate two Spring Festivals."
"Old horse..."
Li Nuo's voice was a little guilty.
"I want to discuss something with you."
"About time."
…
"They stopped moving. I don't know what they are doing."
Seth locked Li Nuo and Cha Bai downstairs and was using the magic of the void to talk to the people in his team.
Far away in another country overseas.
The witch wearing a wide-brimmed hat is sitting in the laboratory, surrounded by failed experimentally synthesized flesh and blood.
Her name is Isabella.
The woman said lazily: "They can summon Leviathan, kill Gao Cang in single combat, and crack your reverse tracking technique. They are a group of powerful guys."
Seth: "Yeah, do you want me to give them a big gift?"
Isabella: "Whatever... It doesn't matter how powerful they are. Gao Cang, that idiot, is dead, but I am interested in their abilities. It would be interesting if they were made into synthetic beasts."
She turned around and took out her pipe, took a puff, and looked at the mist.
There were dozens of embryos in the petri dish in front of her.
"Hehe~ After three months, when these shadow elders grow up, it's just right to test the water with them."
At this time, the witch Isabella's chest shook.
She took out her cell phone from her chest.
"Hello, Croyd~"
"Huh?"
"What!"
...
On a small island.
Adam Ireland walked out of the gang's tavern, covered in blood, and lit a cigarette at the door.
The tavern was full of corpses.
He glanced at the task panel.
After experiencing a gang fight, it has been confirmed that the "gang" career line has been obtained this time.
[Gangsters: You need to complete at least 50 tasks and 5 high-difficulty tasks in the next four and a half months, and obtain the recognition of the upper structure]
[For specific information, please go to the gang]
"Ha... That's great."
Adam breathed a sigh of relief.
After half a month of professional prologue, he really wore out too much patience.
Their team also participated in this competition. When Soran and his team started fighting, Adam's luck comparable to Li Nuo teleported them to the lake.
So they were lucky to avoid Soran's fight with the "End Corridor" at the beginning.
However, the sudden extension of the timeline to half a year caught Adam off guard.
But he was not worried.
Since the level 25 scenario, Adam's team has experienced risks in its development, but generally speaking, it has been stable.
Thinking carefully, he has never been cheated since he stopped dealing with Li Nuo.
Thinking of this.
Adam laughed with relief.
"I suddenly miss that guy, and I don't know where he is now."
[Quest line modification]
"Huh?"
Adam was stunned.
[Quest completion requirements changed: no need to complete 50 tasks, and 5 high-difficulty tasks]
[Quest re-planning: changed to racing mode, after 19 days, based on the number of completed tasks and contribution to the career line, more than 10 teams will be eliminated (except for a special team)]
"What's going on...!"
Adam quickly opened the main task panel.
Then he felt terrible.
[Main task time has been changed]
[20 days]
