Chapter 5 Vermillion Mirror and Monocle
Chapter 5 Vermillion Mirror and Monocle
In the interrogation room.
Dr. Ryan managed to stay calm as the severe pain hit his mind like a tidal wave. He alerted himself and observed the man in front of him. His upper body was a little bloated and his face was covered with a black cloth. The company's employee uniform was genuine, but the trouser legs didn't fit him well.
Dr. Ryan looked up and said with a gasp, "You killed Honey, the person in charge of hunting game. The company will not forgive you then. If you are here for supernatural powers, then I'm sorry, I will never tell you even if I die, but I can hand over the supernatural items and use them in exchange for a chance to survive."
Jiang He did not come closer, but raised his pistol.
A few minutes later, Dr. Ryan used a thin needle hidden in the heel of his palm to unlock the handcuffs. In an instant, the entire interrogation room lit up with red lights. Both people present were stunned for a moment, because the handcuffs looked very ordinary and did not look like high-tech equipment at all.
Jiang He opened the insurance and exerted psychological pressure step by step.
Dr. Ryan stretched out his hand and said hurriedly, "Hey, friend, there's no need to be nervous. Honey wants to take all the supernatural power for himself. There's no one else here, and he has dismantled the sound alarm in advance. Damn it, he's sure I have a way to escape."
Dr. Ryan's face didn't look good. He took out two bottles of small healing potions and drank them. The liquid was bright red and his injuries were soon significantly improved. However, if he wanted to reshape the lost organs, he had to use large healing potions, which were out of stock now.
"Look, any external injury can be cured with just one or two bottles. This is what all extraordinary people dream of. I only have..."
"Your panel permissions will be opened immediately."
The scene was silent for a few seconds, and Dr. Ryan said angrily: "Fuck, you are actually a damn player."
Jiang He browsed the panel expressionlessly. The opponent's level was LV6. His strength, physical fitness and agility were no different from normal people, but his spirit value was as high as 12 points. He was also at LV3 in shooting, LV1 in biology, LV1 in vehicle driving, and LV1 in field reconnaissance.
In addition, there are two active skills, rare quality virus cultivation, ordinary quality limb surgery, the situation of the item capsule is unknown, and the current task is to escape from the isolated island.
Jiang He knew that the effects of spiritual attributes were wide-ranging and of great significance to summoning players. Controlling beasts, insects, zombies, etc. all required reaching certain standards. With the opponent's high attributes, he might be able to control one or two hundred zombies.
"Since you and I are both players, don't fool people with small potions. This is an item of rare quality. While you are bargaining, I will pull the trigger."
Dr. Ryan hesitated for a long time, then took out a palm-sized mirror with dozens of cinnabar pills inlaid on the edge. He showed a reluctant expression and said, "There is only one port on this island. If you want to escape, you have to be hostile to the company. We are natural allies. This is my most valuable thing."
Jiang He let the cinnabar mirror fall to the ground and continued, "I have special skills. You have a piece of equipment that can be used to conceal your appearance. Take it out."
Dr. Ryan was shocked and confused, but after a while, he couldn't help showing a look of real pain. This piece of equipment was a monocle, and although it was of ordinary quality, its value was higher than the cinnabar mirror.
"Medicine."
Dr. Ryan: “…”
"Oh my God! You're just like a damn hungry brown bear waking up in the winter. Am I a salmon in the river? You damn bastard."
Jiang He squatted down with his gun in hand and picked up two props and two bottles of small healing potions. He estimated that the other party still had some good things, but if he continued, both of them would be doomed.
[Name: Vermillion Mirror]
[Type: Detect Item]
[Rank: Rare]
[Effect: Arrange cinnabar pills in advance, players can observe the image of the target location through the mirror, which lasts for half a month, and one pill is restored every three days.]
[Note: Portable camera]
……
[Name: Gentleman's Lenses]
[Type: Disguise Item]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Effect: Recreate an illusory appearance based on bone structure]
[Note: The bone structure and illusory appearance remain unchanged]
... Jiang He put on his monocle and took off the black cloth. Considering the current situation of the players in the Dark Forest, camouflage and hiding were necessary. As long as a LV6 player was not stupid, he would most likely take the initiative to collect and exchange such items. He did not have any so-called special skills, and the other party could probably guess a little, but just did not want to gamble, and honestly paying a certain amount of benefits was the bargaining chip to change the disadvantaged position.
Dr. Ryan was not surprised to see the man in front of him become blond and blue-eyed. He stood up and said calmly:
"I can die with you in this confined space, but as I said, we are allies."
"Honnie is a madman who would do anything for supernatural powers. It is because of his suggestion that the company decided to adopt the hunting game model to try to actively generate players."
"Just because Honey doesn't know that player qualifications can be transferred doesn't mean the company doesn't know. They are truly greedy. We have to escape from this island before tomorrow evening."
Jiang He nodded. In short, the hunting game was an attempt by Leviathan Company. They were very interested in the extraordinary.
"There are two ships in the town's port, with bombs installed on them. The deputy team leader is in control."
Dr. Ryan extended his hand and said, "Then let's form a team. At least there's no need for you and me to fall out before we leave the island."
Game players temporarily form a team and reduce 50% of the damage to each other. Team formation requires consent from both parties and can be cancelled unilaterally, but the other party will be notified immediately after the cancellation.
Soon, Jiang He received an invitation on his panel.
[Player No. 55**3 invites you to form a team. Do you agree...]
Jiang He chose to agree, and Dr. Ryan breathed a sigh of relief without concealing it, and changed into Honey's clothes.
The two men walked out of the interrogation room. The bunker was still empty. Honey left himself enough time before the interrogation.
Ryan went straight to the kitchen and opened a few cans eagerly. He was hungry.
Jiang He found the weapons box, took four 9mm magazines, two grenades and two flash grenades, and took out a revolver from the drawer. This thing was suitable for extremely harsh environments.
After a brief repair, the two left the bunker through the back door, checked around, and got into the company's jeep. Dr. Ryan drove and Jiang He sat directly behind him.
The moment the engine started, an employee at the simple lookout in front of the bunker fired a warning shot. When there was no response, he immediately started shooting at the jeep.
The gunshots alerted the people in the trenches, and bursts of gunfire burst out. The rear window of the jeep shattered in an instant, and bullets hit the body of the car, as if a large group of people were smashing it with hammers.
Dr. Ryan held the steering wheel with one hand and reached out of the car window with the other hand to shoot backwards.
Jiang He raised the pistol above his head, and his index finger seemed to leave an afterimage, quickly emptying two magazines. With this kind of movement and distance, a player who is not an expert in firearms would not have to expect to hit the enemy. Similarly, it would be difficult for the opponent's sniper to hit the jeep's fuel tank.
Two local pickup trucks chased out from the direction of the bunker, and six company employees participated in the pursuit.
