Chapter 8 The Beginning(1/2)
Single copy entry
Difficulty confirmation: The third copy difficulty
Background: There have been horrifying incidents of beasts and cannibalism in this city. As a well-known reporter, you think there must be some secrets hidden in it, but your editor-in-chief does not agree with you. You need to prove yourself again
Main mission: Find the truth within two weeks
Obtain temporary language and disappear automatically when leaving the copy
Clothing, backpack, weapons, and items are not changed, their appearance changes temporarily, and will automatically recover when leaving the dungeon.
Tip: This is your third official dungeon. The main task can fail, but you need to pay a ransom of 300 points, and the highest attribute is reduced by 1 level. When the points are insufficient, deduct equipment. When the deducted equipment cannot make up for the penalty points, it is determined that the player's game failure
When the strong light disappeared, Qin Ran found that he was already standing in a narrow, dim room.
It should be my bedroom.
Qin Ran looked at the single bed in the room and the items placed in messy places around him, compared the simple memories in his mind, and quickly came to the conclusion.
Then, Qin Ran looked at the backpack placed on the single bed.
The appearance of the backpack has not changed much.
However, on the outside of the backpack, there is a camera hanging.
Qin Ran unzipped and checked.
The original supplies in the backpack are the same as the bullets and grenades added before entering the dungeon.
After checking, Qin Ran picked up the camera hanging on his backpack.
There is nothing to note.
It's just an ordinary camera.
If you have to say something different, it is the long shot.
Even ordinary people can feel the cost.
"reporter"
Qin Ran, holding the camera, whispered to himself, then smiled bitterly.
This is a career that is even more unreliable than a detective.
Ring, ring
The cell phone next to the pillow rang.
This is a slightly old mobile phone with only the functions of sending and receiving text messages and answering calls.
The simple memory in my mind told Qin Ran that this was his mobile phone.
Compared with the camera, unknown numbers are displayed on the screen of the shabby phone.
Qin Ran picked up the phone and simply pressed the switch button.
After experiencing one novice copy and two official copy, Qin Ran has already gained a general understanding of the rules of the copy.
Every time you enter the dungeon, a trigger point that is helpful to the main task will appear.
Colin in the newbie's copy.
Hunter, the big businessman in the first dungeon and Captain Raul, the later multi-dule dungeon.
All three indigenous people can be said to be the trigger point.
However, because of the different difficulties, the solutions are slightly different.
The phone call in front of you, or the person who called, was obviously the trigger point of this copy.
"Hey, big reporter, there is news about what you are going to investigate."
"Come to me, we need to talk again."
"You can't buy such big news when you give it."
A slippery sound came from the earpiece.
The other party seemed very confident and hung up the phone without waiting for Qin Ran to reply.
Qin Ran looked at the hanging-up phone, without any anger at all.
Everything was as he expected, the other party was the trigger point of his copy this time
Riley, a well-informed guy who lives by selling all kinds of information.
It is his important source of information.
Simply put: informant.
Moreover, based on the simple memories he received, the other party has such confidence and must have made great discoveries.
As for the price
According to memory, Qin Ran quickly found his wallet from the messy items.
At the corner of the alley behind Fyken Street, there is a very inconspicuous laundry room.
The owner of the laundry room was a fat black man who was flirting with local slang words in some place, and his face was fierce.
Remote geographical location, fierce boss.
It is completely possible to imagine how bad the business here is.
However, this store has been open.
It makes people wonder if there is something wrong with it.
In fact, there are enthusiastic citizens who have reported it more than once.
The police have come more than once.
But the final result was nothing.
There are no imagined drugs, firearms, or any illegal items or behaviors.
This made the searching police a laughing stock.
After several consecutive times, no policeman was willing to come back to this place that would cause stains on his resume, especially after receiving exact secret reports twice, he found nothing. Then he was sued by the vicious boss and after both sheriffs were removed from office, this place became a three-in-one location.
All of this is naturally done by Riley, the real owner of the laundry room.
This thin, flat and narrow middle-aged man was sitting opposite Qin Ran at this time, squinting his eyes and smoking leisurely.
The other person's sitting posture is very strange.
It's not like ordinary people sitting or leaning in a chair.
Instead, he looked like he was crossed with one leg and raised with the other person's appearance, he was completely a monkey.
“What about the news”
"I'm not here to see you smoke."
Qin Ran looked at Riley and asked very simply.
As an old customer of the other party, Qin Ran did not need any special means and came directly from the front of the laundry room to the back.
Similarly, Riley is becoming more and more casual when facing an old customer like Qin Ran.
There is no customer first attitude at all.
"10,000 yuan"
"You know, I just rely on selling news and will never get involved in anything else. And I have a large group of people to support, and I am really short of money."
Riley showed a pitiful look, but no matter how he looked, how he pretended.
Even children can see hypocrisy in that face.
"10,000 yuan is OK"
"But I need to know some specific information to confirm whether I want to spend 10,000 yuan."
Of course, there is no such much currency in the wallet that Qin Ran got.
But there are not only banknotes in the wallet, but also bank cards.
Although there is only one bank card, the deposits on it are more than enough to pay the news fee in front of you.
So, he would not refuse Riley's offer at all.
As long as the money is worth it
"eyewitness"
"My man picked up a guy near the previous crime site."
"After a simple inquiry, I can be sure that the guy knows a lot about the beasts."
"I can guarantee this with my reputation"
Riley said confidently.
