Chapter 207 Frog Hospital (VII) Tadpole Soup
[Current task: Let the patients of Blue Frog Hospital take 1,000 tadpoles]
[Task progress: 154/1000]
Green Frog Hospital, staff dormitory.
At dawn, Yu Kun woke everyone up and gave orders in a loud voice: "Today we must find out the function of tadpoles as soon as possible, so that we can call the other side and let them find a way to get more people to eat tadpoles as soon as possible."
Lin Chen covered the wound on his waist and sat up with difficulty. When he looked up, he saw the ferocious man facing him and sneered: "Whether we can complete our task depends on whether they cooperate. They are sure of this, so they dare to point fingers at us on the phone."
Lin Chen heard the squeeze in Yu Kun's words, and muttered in his heart, "Judge a gentleman by your own mean heart."
In his impression, Qi Si's goal has always been to work together to crack the world view. In Rose Manor, he repeatedly took risks and entered the game. He would never rely on his advantages to threaten others as Yu Kun said...
Moreover, strictly speaking, this copy is fair to the players on both sides.
The opponent has the initiative to complete the task, while they have the initiative to collect information and crack the world view. The real solution is to work together to grasp both the task and the world view.
Of course, Lin Chen, who was stabbed yesterday, didn't need to offend Yu Kun at this moment.
He covered the wound on his waist and climbed down the bed, quietly following Yu Kun, revealing the attitude of being a tool man.
The female teacher retreated further away from Yu Kun, brushed past Lin Chen, and looked like she wanted to stand behind him.
Lin Chen subconsciously made a protective gesture, but felt his left hand being gently held.
A note was stuffed into his hand, soaked with nervous sweat, wet and sticky.
In the two seconds before Yu Kun pushed the door and turned around, Lin Chen quietly unfolded the note and glanced at it.
It was written on it——
[Day 5, cooperate to kill him]
…
In the Blue Frog Hospital, nurses pushed a cart into each ward and delivered breakfast to each bed.
Each player was given two buns and a bowl of soup.
The buns were ordinary buns, and I don’t know what the fillings were; the soup was in a plastic bowl, the surface was yellow, and there were some black unidentified objects floating.
Sun Dekuan stared at the soup for two seconds and said hesitantly: "This seems to be tadpole soup. I made this kind of soup in my early years."
As a chef, his judgment was reasonable and convincing.
Tadpole soup is beyond the acceptance limit of ordinary people. Huang Xiaofei, who had just picked up the soup bowl, almost trembled and spilled the soup on the ground.
Outside the door, the nurse happened to shout at the top of her voice: "Cherish food, stop wasting, and finish breakfast!"
This is undoubtedly the same rule as "Don't go out after lights out". If the NPC finds that you have violated the rules, the failure rate of the role will increase.
Lu Zimo looked at Huang Xiaofei for help: "Sister, do we really have to eat this?"
Huang Xiaofei held her chin with her hand and looked at him sideways: "Zimo, you have already eaten tadpoles yesterday, and you don't need these..."
While the two were talking, Qi Si climbed out of bed neatly, opened the window, and poured all his tadpole soup out of the window.
In the process of pouring the soup, he seemed to hear something, and his body was obviously stiff. After two seconds, he looked back at the other three people and sighed helplessly: "Just now, my failure rate increased by 10%."
The conclusion is logical, and Qi Si's expression is also very sincere. The players' faces are not good for a while.
Someone has tried the law himself, proving that this road is not feasible. It seems that tadpole soup has to be drunk.
Yesterday, Lu Zimo was attacked by frogs because he ate tadpoles, but today the dungeon forces all players to drink tadpole soup, which is weird.
Huang Xiaofei immediately pushed the soup bowl in front of Lu Zimo, with an encouraging look in her eyes: "Let's try to get others to help drink the soup. At present, we don't know what impact eating tadpoles will have on the subsequent plot. We'd better leave two people without drinking the soup and do a control experiment."
Lu Zimo: "..."
While Sun Dekuan and Lu Zimo were crying and drinking soup, Huang Xiaofei analyzed clearly: "Compared with yesterday's situation, as long as we don't let the frogs see us eating tadpoles, we won't be attacked. Frogs can be killed and are not difficult to deal with. The main threat to us is those pregnant ghosts in the corridor."
"Last night, those pregnant ghosts It is obvious that they are preventing us from leaving the ward area. I guess that at night, there will be something fishy in some places in the hospital. As long as we can figure out what the fishy thing is, we will not be far from cracking the world view. "
"Next we need to do three things. First, explore the entire hospital to prepare for the next action; second, find information about our symptoms and develop a treatment plan; third, contact the NPC to understand the world view, and it is best to test the dean - I suspect he knows something. "
It must be said that Huang Xiaofei is worthy of being an old player. He can analyze effective information when there is less known information, and establish a complete idea for the next clearance route.
Such a person is placed in any dungeon, and the weak players are willing to follow and please.
The only drawback is that because of her stupid move of going out to explore last night, the failure rate of the players has risen a lot. Now everyone is angry, and no one is interested in being a supporting role.
Huang Xiaofei did not feel embarrassed. She took a cigarette from her pocket, lit it, and smoked it.
In the silence, Lu Zimo had finished his share of the soup and started to deal with hers.
After taking a few sips, Lu Zimo raised his head and reported the situation: "My failure rate has not increased."
Huang Xiaofei held her cigarette in her mouth and smiled vaguely: "I am here too. It seems that the plan of letting others help drink the soup is completely feasible."
Of course the failure rate will not increase. When Qis poured the soup just now, the failure rate did not move at all.
As for the so-called 10% increase in failure rate... I made it up casually to save other players from not drinking a sip of the soup and preventing him from doing controlled experiments.
Anyway, there are individual differences in acting. Unless you can see each other's system interface, no one can verify the specific situation.
Huang Xiaofei approached Lu Zimo with a smile: "Zimo, I will leave my soup to you in the next few days, how about it?"
Lu Zimo, who was caught pooping, said: "...I have no objection."
After Qisi poured the soup, he sat quietly in the corner and ate the buns. At this moment, he stuffed the last bite of the bun into his mouth and walked straight out the door.
Sun Dekuan had already finished eating, looked around, and stood up.
Last night he finally saw that Huang Xiaofei was arbitrary but also had limited strength. Looking back, Qisi was really wise to draw a clear line with the siblings through a small conflict from the beginning - at least he didn't lose the failure rate.
If you think about it carefully, although Zis seems to be withdrawn, he has actually led people through TE, and he should not be as selfish as he seems... In any case, establishing a good relationship in advance is a good choice.
Qisi stood at the door of the ward and looked deep into the corridor.
Not far away, the nurse delivering the food calmly pushed the food cart around the corner as if she was completely unaware that anyone was staring at her.
Qiss pressed his steps and walked silently towards the place where the nurse's figure disappeared.
Sun Dekuan followed quickly and asked in a low voice: "Little brother, where are you going? Is there anything you want to do? Do you need my help?"
Chiss kept moving forward without saying a word.
After he estimated that he had gone far enough away that the people in the ward could no longer hear the voices, he sighed: "Huang Xiaofei and the others have a problem."
Sun Dekuan was just upset because of the inexplicable 20% failure rate. For a moment, he couldn't figure out what "problem" Zis meant, and looked at the young man in confusion.
Qisi shook his head slightly and answered patiently: "As far as I know, the only one with mature technology for producing team props is the Xila Guild. I worked with people from Kyushu in the last dungeon, and they told me that their team ring It’s still in the testing phase and is not being considered for release.”
"I'm not saying that Huang Xiaofei and Lu Zimo must be from the Xiela Guild, but I'm sure that the way they obtained the team props must be shady, otherwise there would be no need to deceive us."
"And you should have discovered that Huang Xiaofei never cares about the life and death of others. You increased the failure rate because of her wrong decisions, but she didn't even say a word of apology; Lu Zimo is her relative, she can actually You feel comfortable forcing him to help you drink the tadpole soup... I don’t agree with this kind of behavior.”
Hibernating in the shadows like a vulture, this is what Zeiss has been waiting for.
——Searching for evidence and gathering specious evidence to drive a wedge between people’s hearts.
Chaos is far more conducive to cultivating fear than stability. Someone needs to test each death point personally. Those who are not willing to become a guinea pig can only attack first.
It can be said that from the moment Huang Xiaofei showed her dominant position and desire to dominate the situation, she was a dead person in Qisi's eyes. Also damned was her teammate Lu Zimo.
Qisi looked at Sun Dekuan's thoughtful expression, lowered his eyes and said: "The reason why I deliberately conflicted with her yesterday was because I was suspicious of her and wanted to test her behavior. Now it seems that the difference between you and me is She is just a tool to test the copy mechanism."
"I can feel that she is very powerful and very ambitious. She can do any crazy thing in order to pass the TE level and get a higher evaluation. Going out against the rules last night was a big deal, and I'm afraid it will haunt you in the future. I risked my life for her vanity..."
Sun Dekuan blinked his eyes twice and smiled dryly: "Anyway, I won't fight with them anymore. I'm just thankful to God if I can survive. TE clearance is the best, but if you don't, it's just like that. I never expected... …”
This is also the thinking of many ordinary people. They always think that as long as they live in a corner, they can live a stable life. Maybe they are lucky and can pick up some leftovers.
But if all escape routes are blocked, they may not try their best to survive.
Qisi knew this and chuckled, his eyes full of teasing: "Why are you so naive? This is a team copy. No matter whether we act collectively during the clearance process, the final crisis and risks will be triggered. All of us have to foot the bill."
"They only need to trigger all the triggering events in advance, and in the end they can use the rhetoric of 'you don't want everyone to be unable to pass the level' to kidnap us morally and force us to act according to their arrangements."
"Of course, this is just the worst-case scenario. It's possible that I'm overthinking it. But you only have one life, and no one can afford to gamble, right?"
The truth of the facts coupled with wrong guidance leads the other party's thinking into misunderstandings in the plan. This is back to the area where Zis is best at talking.
Sun Dekuan already had some objections to Huang Xiaofei because of what happened last night, so he easily deduced it from Qisi's words and came to a more terrifying conclusion.
As we all know, the guaranteed death toll mechanism always exists. If you stick to the safer NE clearance route, with the support of veteran players, you may not reach the worst situation.
But once you start taking the TE clearance route, the difficulty and risk index will soar unpredictably. Even the most experienced players cannot guarantee that they will not overturn in the end.
And it is undeniable that no matter how they overturn, the probability of experienced players surviving to the end is higher than that of ordinary players who have cleared less than ten official dungeons. Sun Dekuan believed that with Huang Xiaofei's character and ability, he would never be allowed to live until the end.
He unconsciously moved closer to Qisi and asked nonchalantly: "So, little brother, what should we do? They are all senior players. You are good at solving puzzles, but the two of us are tied together. You may not be able to beat one of them..."
"So, we also have to find a way to take the TE clearance route." Qisi smiled and followed the guidance, "The more events are triggered and the more clues are obtained, the greater our advantage will be. As long as we have the key clues, when the time comes they will They must be thrown into a trap, for fear that we will go to hell together with the clues.”
Sun Dekuan was stunned for a long time and then thought about it: "Isn't it still necessary to take risks to pass the level through TE?"
"But I'm different from them." Qisi looked sideways at Sun Dekuan with piercing eyes. "Including the novice pool, I already have six TE clearance records, and I have also helped many players who have never met me before to clear the dungeon. I have never I won’t force others to take risks in order to clear TE. I only make suggestions. It’s up to you how to do it.”
"Of course, you can also choose to tell them what I said to you. I believe it will be a good pledge. Of course -" the black-haired young man stroked his fingers and smiled like a man behind the trading table. Devil, "You are dispensable to them, and I am alone and need a teammate. There is a difference between adding icing on the cake and providing help in times of need."
"We are all adults. It is easy to learn how to maximize your interests, isn't it?"
The last weight fell, and the situation became clear.
Huang Xiaofei and Qisi both want to take the TE route to pass the level, but they have no choice. Comparing the two, it is obvious that the intellectual player Qisi, who has six TE clearance records, is more reliable.
Sun Dekuan looked at Qisi for a long time, then gritted his teeth and slapped his hands: "Those girls have already done me a lot of harm, I can't fight with them anymore. Little brother, I believe in you. If you can pass the test with TE, then I will admit it even if you can't."
Having said that, he couldn't help but have some hope in his heart.
From the moment he entered the game to now, he has never cleared TE level once, and can only barely earn meager points. It will take until the year of the monkey to realize his wish.
He longed for the generous points and bonus props after clearing the TE level.
The young man in front of me is clearly capable of leading someone through TE. Maybe his luck finally improves and he can pass through TE?
"Thank you for trusting me." Qisi smiled with crooked eyebrows, suppressing the teasing and calculation in his eyes, "As long as you don't think wrongly, I believe this will be the most correct choice for you."
The two of them had now reached the door of an operating room.
The scarlet light flickered on the top of the door, and a blood-stained hospital bed was pushed out.
Qisi reacted quickly and turned his back, not looking at the blood on the bed. He only saw Sun Dekuan, who was still facing the direction of the hospital bed, dumbfounded.
"He was bleeding heavily. We tried our best to save him, but he couldn't be saved. I'm sorry." The female voice behind her sounded coldly. The person who said this was probably a nurse.
A male voice cried loudly, and the cry was mixed with broken words: "It's all my fault. I should have insisted on eating tadpoles. It's all my fault..."
Qisi looked at Sun Dekuan quietly and asked, "Brother Sun, what did you see?"
Sun Dekuan was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and stammered: "On the hospital bed...a red frog jumped out...and disappeared..."
