Chapter 519 Investment Reminder
In the blink of an eye, there are only two days left before the end of the Dead Souls Dungeon.
In these last days, Wang Zhifan's player experience had already reached the limit of the dungeon, and he had received various dungeon rewards and no longer wanted to take them, so he could only practice and relax.
When he was most bored, he even went to talk to a few more intelligent ghosts.
If the negotiation goes well, he will add some decorations to other people's tombs and haunted houses. If the negotiation does not go well, he will directly chop them into ashes. It can be said that the reputation of the Underworld Envoy in the Land of Dead Souls has been brought to the bottom.
Finally, in the last few days, the plan he had single-handedly promoted came into effect.
At the entrance to the Land of Dead Souls, a total of eighteen experts were invited by a young man in a suit to jointly defeat the fierce ghost designated by Wang Zhifan, who was one of the guardians of the Land of Dead Souls.
Moreover, Wang Zhifan specifically revealed this news to the player group, using the method of using avatars to direct and act, so that the players happened to pass by and heard the avatars secretly discussing the plan, thus attracting their attention and gathering together on this day.
At this moment, it was already afternoon. More than eighty miles away from the entrance to the Land of Dead Souls, dozens of people stood in front of a huge temple with black gas, discussing how to suppress the fierce ghosts in the temple.
"There are actually evil spirits who regard my Buddhist temple as the den of demons? I can't bear it anymore! Today, the poor monk must eliminate the demons and defend the Tao!"
The first person to speak was a fat, bald man with a big gold chain around his neck.
This man looks to be about forty years old. He is neither wearing monk robes nor cassocks. He is dressed like a nouveau riche. He wears a gold watch on his wrist and two gold rings on his fingers. It has nothing to do with poverty. But he calls himself a poor monk.
"Since you said so, Fatty, it's up to you to go in and investigate first! We will keep a lookout for you outside!"
When he heard the fat man's lofty words, which had nothing to do with being a monk except for his hair style, an old man with a humble appearance but sharp eyes next to him started to encourage him, hoping that he would let the fat man take risks alone.
However, the fat man was not fooled and immediately shook his fat face and replied:
"Uncle, how can a good thing like slaying demons and defending the Tao be enjoyed by me alone? We must unite and work together to live up to the trust of our sponsors!"
The financial sponsor in his mouth is none other than the young man in a suit who was resurrected by Wang Zhifan. He also came over in person for this plan. Not only did he bring the four people who came back last time, he also spent a lot of money to recruit many experts. It can be said that he has made a big move. capital.
Wang Zhifan was very satisfied with the attitude of this indigenous young man. Although he was not really sure whether the person he found was strong enough, at least he worked hard and did not waste his resurrection.
When these NPC masters gathered at the target location, the players that Wang Zhifan was responsible for inducing also basically arrived and hid near the temple where the guardian was located.
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. For players, sufficiently significant benefits are also fatally attractive.
These players were attracted by the news that the indigenous groups had captured powerful ghosts and had the opportunity to pick up bargains, and every one of them wanted to be the ultimate beneficiary.
"There are so many NPCs here? This is the first time I see so many people in this hellish place!"
"There must be something good in that house! We must keep an eye on it!"
The two black players who were discussing at the moment used special props to hide underground. They only showed a pair of eyes wearing sunglasses to observe the outside, and their behavior was relatively cautious.
Different from them, the group composed of three white players was much more public. They did not hide their whereabouts and showed up swaggering near the guardian temple. They even took the initiative to talk to the NPC group and expressed their desire to join them and fight against the ghosts together. .
Apart from these five players, the only one who is still alive is the only member of the Xia Group, the female assassin player who killed her boss.
This woman was very courageous. She followed the NPC group almost all the way to the guardian's location, eavesdropping on their conversations and learned more relevant information.
"It sounds like a rich man invited them to deal with this ghost, but they didn't say why they wanted to eliminate this ghost..."
There is a problem, maybe this rich man has colluded with the ghosts and came here specifically to deliver live food to the ghosts..."
After some analysis, the female player decided to keep a sufficient distance and observe secretly to see what the outcome of this ghost-killing operation would be.
Everyone's reactions fell into the eyes of Wang Zhifan, who was also hiding nearby and watching.
His perception is extremely sharp and covers a wide area. Even the invisible female assassin players are immediately discovered by him. No one can escape his detection.
"These NPCs have extraordinary energy in their bodies, and the tools they carry are also interesting. None of them are ordinary people, and a few of them are quite strong. It seems that the young man has really spent time recruiting people...
The remaining players have gathered in this area under my influence, but these people seem to give me a relatively average feeling? The strength may not be as good as that of the NPC...
But compared to the feeling given to me by the defenders of this place, their overall strength is still a bit inferior. It seems that as I feared, this plan to kill ghosts with a borrowed sword may fail due to lack of combat power. "
Observing and then judging, Wang Zhifan gave a pessimistic prediction.
He was someone who had fought against the defenders, and his powerful perception also allowed him to roughly judge the level of the fierce ghosts in the temple. They were on par with the female ghosts he had killed before, and he knew how much strength it would take to eliminate the opponent.
Since the plan was likely to fail, he thought of an alternative plan.
For example, we simply don't expect these NPCs and players to fight the defenders, just drain them of all their oil and water and treat them as treasure-delivery boys.
But the problem is that Wang Zhifan has gained a lot of equipment in this dungeon, and he doesn't like ordinary things at all. After observing for a while, he didn't find any NPC items or player equipment that made him excited.
In this way, while he was thinking for a long time, the NPC had already started taking action.
After the NPCs finished their discussion, they entered the temple in batches and began the formal challenge.
Three white players were also among them, and they entered together with the first batch of NPCs.
Two black men couldn't help but followed closely behind them, quietly following behind them.
Only the female assassin from the Xia Kingdom concentrated on hiding outside the ghost building, planning to wait and see.
When Wang Zhifan saw that the plan had officially begun, he kept a distance and hid himself, waiting for the progress of the matter.
He sensed that the first batch of NPCs and players had already started fighting, fighting against the guardian's minions.
At present, they are going strong all the way, and they will face the defender in fifteen minutes at most, facing the real test.
However, something happened soon that left Wang Zhifan speechless.
That was when he suddenly sensed that the guardian of the temple was missing.
When he sensed the other party again, the other party appeared directly in front of him, obviously having discovered him and coming to his door.
The image of this guardian is that of an elderly man with a stooped figure. His hair is sparse and his eyebrows are almost gone. His eyes are as dark as blood, and his teeth and nails are very sharp. His body contains a lot of things that look ordinary at first glance, but upon closer inspection are extremely... The terrifying evil aura is one of the most powerful zombies in the Dead Soul Land, and it is the kind that is covered by the power of the underworld.
Unlike other powerful ghosts, this guardian did not rely on spiritual channels to communicate with Wang Zhifan, but spoke directly like humans.
If its image and aura were not completely different from humans, it would undoubtedly be an old human being.
"Mingshi, you are planning to let others deal with us unlucky ghosts these days. Don't think we don't know."
In the first sentence in person, the powerful zombie guardian exposed Wang Zhifan's plan. It can be seen that the guardian is indeed a local snake and knows everything about someone's little moves.
"I didn't. Don't accuse others of their innocence out of thin air! Don't implicate other people's collective behavior on me!"
Wang Zhifan immediately denied it shamelessly. Not only did his face not blush, his heart did not beat, but he also acted like he was just watching the show and it had nothing to do with him.
He really couldn't admit it. After all, he and the guardian were currently in the same force and could be roughly regarded as one of his own.
If you admit that your own people are scheming against your own people, you will not only lose face but also your dignity.
"You know whether it has anything to do with you or not. I'm not here to argue with you."
The Zombie Guardian then shook his head and changed the subject.
"Then tell me what you want to do?"
Sensing a somewhat strange smell, Wang Zhifan secretly cheered up.
"I was instructed by the great will of the underworld to give you a warning."
The Zombie Guardian immediately responded.
"oh?"
Wang Zhifan was interested when he heard it, but he did not expect that things would develop in such an unexpected way.
The zombie guardian then continued:
"The will of the underworld lets me tell you that although that existence is extremely powerful, without his permission, you would not be able to obtain the unique identity of the underworld so easily! It is also the highest level of the identity of the underworld!
So you have to understand that this is an investment from the underworld in you!
You have to keep this in mind, and don’t make the wrong choice when the time comes. You must stand on the side of the underworld!
Even if you really can't, you can't go against the underworld! "
As soon as the guard finished speaking, Wang Zhifan couldn't help but feel very confused and immediately asked:
"Don't make the wrong choice at that time? Why can't I understand what you are saying? Can you explain it in more detail!"
However, the zombie guardian shook his head and confessed:
"That's all, these are the words that the will of the underworld has conveyed to me... I don't understand the rest if you ask me.
I'm just an unlucky guy who doesn't want to live or die. I don't know about those unattainable great beings, nor do I know about you guys with unknown origins. "
"Okay...but are you really unlucky? Why can't I see it?"
Sensing that the guardian was not hiding anything or lying, Wang Zhifan didn't bother to ask further questions. It was indeed unlikely that the other party would know particularly high-end information at his level.
"I'm trapped in this little funless place. Like many of my kind, I know that there are countless delicious blood foods just outside the mountain pass, but I can't even take a step out!
Even if those blood foods come to my door, I have to act according to the rules. I can't eliminate them at will. There is no freedom at all! Isn’t this bad luck? "
The old zombie, the guardian, then narrated its plight, making Wang Zhifan realize that the Land of Dead Souls did not exist naturally, but was forcibly created by outside forces, and various potential rules unknown to humans were imposed.
Otherwise, with the high-end power of the Dead Soul Land, it would be difficult for the creatures in this world to resist it.
"It turns out that being a ghost is so troublesome...
It can be inferred from this that the underworld created this place to match the copy of the extraordinary game...
What is the origin of extraordinary games? It trains players to constantly break into dungeons, but for what end? "
For a time, Wang Zhifan thought of many aspects of the extraordinary game.
He couldn't help but think about this matter. As a player in the extraordinary game and a member with special advantages, he had always been curious about the essence of the extraordinary game.
Why would someone so powerful that it is difficult to understand create this simple yet complicated system to toss or train players through dungeons?
There are even players not only on Earth, but also in other distant worlds and in other completely different civilizations and races. Why does this group across multiple worlds continue to develop?
In the past, Wang Zhifan has discovered a phenomenon many times in the dungeon world, that is, some entities in the dungeon world know about the player group, and some even know the player group very well, and are willing to promote matters related to the player group, as if they are related to the extraordinary game. Work closely together.
For example, in the previous dungeon of the Star World Brave, the chief in the spaceship made it clear that he was once a player, a Level 100 player, but in the end his player career failed and he became a dungeon NPC. He hoped that Wang Zhifan would not make the same mistake again.
In the Chaos Domination dungeon, the indigenous expert Shen Fengzi said that outsiders come to cause trouble every once in a while, and then the outsiders leave again, and the cycle starts over and over again. He has summarized the appearance patterns and behavioral characteristics of players.
The creation of the Disaster dungeon with mythical level rewards was even more remarkable. The master in it almost said that he was a collaborator of Extraordinary Games. He not only helped Wang Zhifan many times, but also informed Wang Zhifan in advance that there were alien players appearing among the enemies. It can be said that He knows the players better than the players themselves.
All this shows that extraordinary games are not completely above other things, nor do they exist in isolation.
It maintains a certain degree of integration with each world, and is obviously a comprehensive product of negotiation and compromise, even though it performs extremely high-end in all aspects.
Therefore, it can be inferred that there is a promoter behind the extraordinary game, and there must be some existence that is powerful enough to maintain its operation in order to achieve a certain clear purpose.
"No matter what happens in the end, I still have to go down this road. I hope to wait until the day when the mystery is revealed as soon as possible."
After communicating with the guardian, Wang Zhifan thought a lot, but soon he brought his attention back to the current matter. (End of chapter)
