chapter.19 The time to wake up(1/2)
There are 95 left... isn't this the same value as when I started?
The corner of Klein's mouth twitched, and he shouted in his heart that it was outrageous:
Good guy, has she locked her sanity? In the process of running a group, it is a classic case of seeing indescribable horror, making a 1d100 sanity check, and the result is a 1, but her mood does not fluctuate?
But considering that she didn't see the strange appearance of eyes growing on her body, she didn't know who the guy in the bright yellow robe might be, and she died simply in the end, and probably didn't feel much pain...
Well, it’s not incomprehensible that the loss of sanity points is small.
Unlike Klein, who was looking for reasons to convince himself, the Russell doll's reaction was much more intense.
It sat on its own exclusive tea seat and slapped the armrest with exaggerated movements:
"There's something wrong with you, there's something wrong with you, little sister! How could it be possible that you only lost 5 points of sanity? Only 5 points were lost in the whole game! Are you cheating? You are definitely cheating!"
Great Emperor Doll, don’t think about cheating when you see any unreasonable phenomena... Where is your reserve, as an emperor’s reserve?
Klein silently cursed, and at the same time he consciously looked at Alice, and found that she still had the same neutral reaction, and didn't think there was any problem. He sighed silently, and began to seriously think about whether he should sacrifice his life tonight...
The proposition of keeping reason with the witch.
"It's been reduced by 5 points. Is it weird?" Alice asked as if she wanted to deliberately stimulate the Russell doll's nerves.
"Of course it's strange! Don't you think there's something wrong with it?"
Russell's doll was so excited by the two people in front of him who had the same unsurprised expression that he patted the square table:
"You two returned at the same time! Returned at the same time, the first game ended at the same time! Your perspective has been fixed on the character used in this game, and you have personally experienced the feeling of having your head blown off, being torn into pieces, and being chewed to pieces.
! How could your sanity only be reduced by 5 points! And there are evil spirit fragments... Yes, the evil spirit fragments attached to you should also have an impact on your sanity! What's more, you were implanted by four different evil spirits at once
Malicious fragments!”
Alice nodded seriously:
"So I lost my sanity. Each evil spirit cost me a little bit. Counting the point lost due to death, exactly 5 sanity points were deducted during the whole game. That's right."
Following her calculation method, Klein even did a quick mental calculation and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with this calculation method, which was as simple as elementary school arithmetic...
No, wait a minute, what did the Emperor Doll just say? That her perspective has always been fixed on the character used in this game, and that she has personally experienced everything that the corpse has experienced?
Klein's expression turned bad instantly, and a certain possibility flashed through his mind:
"...After the character used in the game process dies, our consciousness will not immediately leave the body, but will still..."
Yes, this also explains why Alice asked him if he felt okay after the game ended, as if he knew what was going to happen next...
He originally thought that the emperor's doll arranged the posthumous spectator view, but now it seems that the truth is not far from this guess.
...Then the whole process at that time was watched by Alice?
this……
"Oh, I've been discovered. You are really a clever guy." Unintentionally caring about other people's delicate moods, Russell Doll read in a smooth tone, "So don't be so naive as to think that it's over when you die, no.
If you protect your body well until the end of this round, you will suffer a lot...
I think you will know the ending conditions of a single game soon, so I will kindly reveal part of it in advance - only when all the challenger characters are unable to move, will you return to the tea room during the intermission.
Have time to exchange information and settle the game rewards...
So, now that you know it? If you were to go through the same process again, do you think you would only lose 5 sanity points?"
Klein thought for a moment and very wisely did not answer.
"Although it hurt a little...well, it hurt so much that I almost burst into tears, but I had already lost my right to move freely at that time, so it wasn't a particularly unbearable torture..." Alice said.
Then, while operating the "Hunter Medal", the game settlement panel was brought up.
At a glance, Klein couldn't help but be attracted by a certain line of text, and said with a look of surprise:
"Hey, the Versailles points... are 9?"
When did the points arrive? They probably didn't find any decent collectibles in this game, right?
"Actually, I have been thinking about this issue of Versailles Points before, and why the way to obtain it is to stamp the heraldic mark of the 'Hunter Medal' on the collection..."
Alice paused briefly and expressed her guess.
"The essence of Versailles points should be a certain piece of information that has been deliberately hidden. Using the 'Hunter Medal' to stamp it, we will learn that piece of information and gain points accordingly. In this game, we
It is not difficult to imagine the reason for not finding any collectibles but getting Versailles points... because the key piece of information is on the torn page of the illustrated book, and the torn page is a
A collection.”
Klein glanced at the Russell doll without trace, and noticed that the other person's reaction seemed to be completely frozen in place, so he considered his words and said carefully:
"But in fact, we didn't find the page that was deliberately torn out..."
"Since the essence of points is information, then as long as we know the content recorded on the page, we have obtained the points. Is it reasonable?" As she spoke, Alice counted in detail with a smile, "The one that was torn off
On the page, the detailed habits of the Wounded Soul Flower should be recorded, such as its appetite for preying on evil spirits and its desire to attack..."
Her tone was as calm as a bystander, and she calmly recounted her experience of having her neck bitten off, saying that the part targeted by the Wrongful Soul Flower was the back of her neck where she was most affected by evil spirits, and the subsequent development was not surprising.
The evil spirits that tried to occupy the body fled to all parts of her body after being threatened by natural enemies. They jumped to the limbs and burrowed into the organs, and were chased by the Wounded Soul Flower with the instinct to hunt evil spirits for the last remaining survival.
Instinct, but ultimately failed to escape.
After all, they are just fragments and fragments of the evil spirit's body. They cannot exist independently from the dependent body, so they are naturally accepted by the Wrong Soul Flower as good nourishment.
"...And just by watching the end of that battle, you can discover the action patterns and rules of the Wrongful Soul Flower. It has the ability to capture the heat signal and vital signs of living things, and feeds on evil spirits and wronged souls. At the same time, it will not let go.
Through living creatures that step into its growth range, I personally cook the dead souls full of resentment..."
Alice then went on to talk about some of the characteristics she had summarized, such as the possible reproduction methods of the Wounded Soul Flower, such as the fundamental purpose and biological instinct of ensuring the survival of the main plant behind its seemingly capable thinking, etc.
"...Even if you summarize the relevant knowledge about the Wrong Soul Flower, the value of this knowledge is only 5 Versailles points. I am curious about where you got the rest of the points."
The Russell doll seemed to have calmed down and touched the two mustaches painted on its lips again.
But Klein already had a hunch about the answer.
Sure enough, Alice quickly replied:
"Of course it was provided by those four helpful evil spirits."
She said that as the evil spirit fragments gradually dissipated under the bite of the Wrong Soul Flower, a few pieces of information spilled out, and at the same time, she learned a small part of the "previous history" of the evil spirits during their lifetime.
"Although most of the content is of little value..." She briefly told the common bleak stories and jumped directly to the information that might be helpful for game exploration. "However, judging from the information they provided, this Versailles Palace
The attendants in the game seem to be roughly divided into two categories: one type has the hearts or diamonds on the playing cards, and is used to acting alone; the other type has spades and clubs, and often appears in teams..."
"The attendants are divided into red and black camps?"
Klein only briefly recalled the maid who made him feel uncomfortable and weird, the heart pattern printed on the apron, and confirmed that there were no other attendants around her at the time.
After careful consideration, he expressed his guess:
"The servants of hearts and diamonds...represent lies and malice? In contrast, those marked with spades and clubs are normal people?"
"The evil spirits didn't mention these details. What you said was just a possibility, a guess." Alice glanced at Russell's doll's reaction and smiled, "But now it seems that this guess is correct.
of."
Realizing that he was being used as a banknote detector, the Russell doll leaned back on his chair and slowly exhaled:
"Nah... are you really the 'candidate for sainthood' they trained? Are you not an undercover agent sent by the Church of Knowledge?"
"Why can't we think about it the other way around and realize that I am actually an undercover agent placed in the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom? But if I can get such an evaluation, I will regard it as a compliment to my personal abilities and accept it well." Ai Li.
Si raised her lips briskly.
As the discussion between the two people beside him got further and further, Klein picked up the tea cup and drank a few sips of Marquis black tea with lemon slices. Then he gathered his thoughts, took out his "Hunter Medal", and called out
Come out of the panel and look carefully.
Due to the mechanism of game challengers sharing Versailles points, corresponding points are also displayed on his character panel, and a new functional system is activated.
Exchange in the mall!
Quickly finding the corresponding opening method, Klein suppressed his anticipation and nervousness and switched the light screen in front of him to the mall page.
At the top of the list is the highest priority support supply for game challengers - the right to freely customize the fixed characters in the game!
Priced at only 5 Versailles points!
If you are willing to settle for the next best thing and use the character templates provided by the emperor, the price is even cheaper. With only 3 Versailles points, you can get rid of the dilemma of having to randomly select characters to use at the beginning of each game!
His eyes did not stop, and he extracted the types of items in the mall with the eyesight of a senior keyboard adventurer, and finally fixed his sight on a certain type of exciting exchange items.
Serial potion.
Yes, Klein read it several times and confirmed that it is actually possible to exchange for potions in this mall, and each sequence path can be freely chosen! The corresponding potions of Sequence 9 can even be exchanged for just one Versailles point.
arrive!
From now on, the potions in Sequence 8 are priced at 2 points, the potions in Sequence 7 are worth 4 points, and the prices of potions in Sequence 6 and later are gradually increasing in a geometric order.
After being secretly excited for a few seconds, Klein gradually regained his composure and saw clearly the words written on the serial potion redemption instructions: This type of prop can only be used by freely customized characters.
I wonder if I can use the magic potion exchanged in the mall to reverse divination the Sequence 7 formula of my own path?
No, it can’t be calculated like this. A freely customized character costs 5 points. To buy sequence 9, the potion of sequence 8 costs another 3 points. We only have a total of 9 points now. On average, it’s not even enough to buy two freely customized characters.
To be continued...
