Chapter 2 Thriller Cinema, Crowd
Li Du, a player in the third round of closed beta testing of the thriller game.
So far, he has experienced five thriller games.
Each of these five thriller games has its own dangers and difficulties.
But to say which one is the hardest.
That must be the first novice copy he experienced - the extremely difficult "Hotel of the Past".
In his batch, a total of thirty players entered the dungeon.
From the beginning to the end of the instance, players died in almost every time period.
In the end, he was the only one left alive. He struggled to survive for seventy-two hours and barely passed the level with an average rating.
For him, being able to survive is like smoke rising from the graves of his ancestors.
Just surviving was an effort, and he couldn't even think of a higher evaluation.
But because I had the experience of surviving extremely difficult dungeons, the road ahead became much smoother.
On the one hand, the rewards for extremely difficult dungeons are really good. Even if it is an ordinary evaluation, the rewards given are very impressive.
On the other hand, it is the viewing function of thriller games.
After each thriller game, players can purchase a movie ticket.
Watch copies of horror games that you have experienced.
Watch other players live in the same horror instance.
In this process, moviegoers can also place bets with points.
For example, bet on how many people will survive in the end, who will be the first to die, who will survive in the end, etc.
For ordinary copies, this kind of bet is naturally very risky.
Because there are too many variables.
In a normal copy, all players may survive, or all players may die suddenly.
But extremely difficult copies are different.
Basically, everyone ends up dying suddenly, and occasionally one person can survive.
As long as you bet on these two, you are basically guaranteed to win.
Li Du relied on this method to save a large amount of horror game points.
Then use these points to buy props, snowball skill cards, survive several crises in subsequent horror games, and get a higher rating.
Nowadays, he is considered a slightly famous figure in the player circle.
This time, he naturally gave his old sweetheart the opportunity to watch the movie.
Li Du said: "Thriller game, I want a ticket to watch "Hotel of the Past"."
After finishing speaking, he walked towards the door of his house.
A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door.
"Express delivery!"
Li Du quickly opened the door and moved a black box the size of an urn at the door.
Close the door and open the black box.
Lying inside was a movie ticket for "Hotel of the Past".
Li Du skillfully picked up the movie ticket and swiped it hard in front of him, and a black vortex appeared in front of his eyes.
As he walked into it, his appearance changed, and his in-game codename [Takeaway Rider] appeared above his head.
He was sitting in a spacious cinema. There was a big screen in front of him. On the screen was a picture of a hotel, and there were a few big words "Hotel of the Past".
If Su Ming sees this scene, he will definitely feel that it looks very familiar. This is the very first scene of "Hotel of the Past" in his CD-ROM game.
Li Du was surrounded by players who came here to watch movies just like him.
The movie hasn't started yet, and many players around are chatting with each other.
Because of watching "Hotel of the Past" many times, some players have begun to look familiar to each other.
"Brother Dog, it's great to meet again!"
"Haha! Thank you for preparing an extra high-level item before the last instance started, otherwise I would be gone this time."
"Hiss—can you even afford high-end props?"
"Thanks to the book "Hotel of the Past", I won a lot of points, otherwise I wouldn't be able to afford it~"
"Master Ma, how do you plan to suppress this time? Are you going to do the same as last time and destroy the whole group?"
"I don't know yet. Let's take a look at the performance of the players first. Maybe there are strong ones who can survive."
"I still hope that they are all dishonest, just wipe out the group and it will be over. We will make a sure profit."
...Soon, the movie starts.
What appeared on the screen was Su Ming and his group of thirty people standing at the entrance of the hotel.
All the players in the theater were patiently observing the reactions of the thirty people on the screen.
The purpose is to find out if there is anyone among them who looks pretty awesome at first glance.
They could see the code names of thirty people floating above their heads.
From the code names, we can also see some information about the players. Although it is not comprehensive, it is somewhat of a reference.
Someone noticed the [Mr. Cuckold] with a very ugly face and said happily: "Hahaha! That Mr. Cuckold seems to have realized something."
"Maybe he finally realized that he was cuckolded!"
"The code name for the thriller game is really harmful. I'm afraid it will ruin a happy family."
"Is there any old man who bets that a cuckold will be the first to be eliminated? After all, he can't even detect such a thing. It shows that his observation skills are very poor. Such a person will not survive long in a thriller game."
……
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
……
In front of Su Ming, a prompt for a thriller game popped up.
[This thriller game has been broadcast by Thriller Cinema! 】
[Dungeon rewards increased by 50%! 】
[Please do not worry about personal privacy issues, Thriller Games and Thriller Cinema will ensure the personal privacy of game participants. 】
[Basic mission: Survive for seventy-two hours. 】
Su Ming was speechless. It was being broadcast live. How could he talk about personal privacy?
And there was no option for him to refuse!
Fortunately, his appearance has been adjusted and he has been given a code name.
[Gamer] What does Su Ming’s various performances in the game have to do with him?
Let me give you a sample so that you can see how he successfully cleared this extremely difficult copy.
Su Ming glanced at the codenames of other players, and they didn't look like they were fierce.
These people were aware of the seriousness of the situation, and the atmosphere at the scene was extremely depressing.
"It turned out to be an extremely difficult dungeon. It's over now!"
"Oops! I don't know what kind of bad luck I have. Even if I am selected by the horror game, it is still the most difficult dungeon. God is going to kill me."
"Grandpa, I'm going to come down to see you soon, woo woo woo..."
"Is there a big boss? Please guide me, Qiuqiu, as long as you guide me through the dungeon, I will listen to you in everything."
"How about we stop struggling and just lie down and finish the job. After all, the mortality rate of extremely difficult copies is over 99%."
"Brother, judging from your code name, your wife may have cheated on you."
"You are riding a horse! Do you still need to judge? If I can go back alive this time, I will divorce you."
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. After all, it's an extremely difficult copy. If you die here, your wife seems to be able to inherit your inheritance."
"Can you please stop hurting me?"
"So, should we enter the hotel now?"
"Who's first? Anyway, I'm not first."
"I won't start either. After all, the dungeon is extremely difficult, and someone might die just after entering."
"Let's explore the road if you are brave enough!"
……
In addition to complaining, everyone was talking about all kinds of nonsense.
No one wants to be a pioneer, and no one stands up to take the lead. They are afraid that if they stand up, they will be pushed out to be a pioneer.
Person No. 30 stood at the door of the hotel as if he had eaten the crowd control skill.
It's just a bunch of people, a mess.
Helpless, Su Ming could only stand up and be the first to walk towards the hotel door.
It's okay to get into this hotel quickly, but if you get in slowly and don't get in until the rainstorm comes, you'll really be dead.
I see someone is finally the first.
Everyone started to cheer him on: "Gamer! Awesome!"
"Well done! This is a real man with courage and courage!"
"And you, game geek, are my hero!"
"There shouldn't be any door-to-door killings, right? It shouldn't be possible?"
"Shh! Keep your voice down, there is always someone who wants to be the first. If you say it, what will happen if they don't come in?"
