Chapter 117: The cardboard world and precious golden pine cones!
Chapter 117 Return to the cardboard world, precious golden pine cones!
Enter the archway on the fourth floor.
What comes into view is the familiar world of cardboard boxes.
They were standing in a long corridor.
On both sides of the corridor are rooms.
Both the corridor and the room are filled with cardboard boxes.
These cardboard boxes are of various shapes and colors. The big ones can hold a person, while the small ones can only hold a candy.
It looks quite spectacular.
Ma Ge: "What a familiar scene. The game we played when we came here was to find a pine cone in these cardboard boxes."
Lumbar disc herniation: "Yeah! This is the first game."
Zhou Rui: "It happened only a few days ago, but it feels like a long time ago."
The fake medicine seller sighed, "That's because I've experienced so much in the past two days!"
Anxiety patient: "I remember that the station god brother or someone else reminded us that we must get the pine cones as soon as possible, otherwise the headshot pine cones will appear."
"I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked. I watched others find the pine cone and leave. I was so anxious that I felt like I was doomed."
"But the weird thing is that the head-exploding squirrel didn't show up until the very end."
Egg Fried Rice looked at him as if he were a fool: "It's weird that you're still lying here!"
"Anyone with a little common sense can figure it out. It must be the gaming geek who took action to resolve the danger of the head-exploding squirrel in advance."
"Otherwise, at least two people will die at your speed."
The anxiety sufferer suddenly realizes.
It turns out that during the first game, the boss had already been working silently.
And maybe even saved his life!
The patient with anxiety disorder was very touched: "Boss! It's all thanks to you that I am still alive today!"
Su Ming said frankly: "At that time, the main purpose was to get the golden coin, and saving people was just a side job."
Well, if there were more alive people, it would help him delay the precious time of being discovered by the puppet.
As he spoke, Su Ming had already walked to the innermost room.
He knocked gently.
Soon, the door opened.
The one who opened the door was the giant squirrel with an extremely strong body.
It is nearly two meters long, with strong muscles covered with a layer of orange fur, and a huge tail behind it.
The last time Su Ming came here, he was killed by a headshot.
But now, it has come back to life.
When the giant squirrel saw several strangers coming, his brows frowned slightly, and his expression revealed a bit of vigilance.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Su Ming directly took out the golden coin marked with the number "4".
Handed it to the giant squirrel: "Take it and you will know."
The giant squirrel remained alert.
He didn't immediately recognize what the golden coin was.
But he felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy in it, so he took the coin anyway.
He saw the number "4" on one side of the coin and wondered if this was the value of the coin.
Turn over the coin and see the stick figure of a squirrel on the back.
I recognized it at first glance, this is me!
The golden coin turned into a stream of light and merged into his body.
In an instant, the giant squirrel's body expanded by another three points, and its brown hair became shining golden, as if it was made of gold, exuding a vigorous golden aura.
Pot-fried pork muttered to himself: "Is this enhanced?"
Anxiety Patient: "Giant Squirrel Evolution - Golden Super Giant Squirrel?"
The golden squirrel's eyes were filled with confusion: "So, I'm already dead!"
"I never thought that the puppet would actually do such a thing. I wish I had believed Tigger at the time."
His eyes showed determination: "Since I have the chance to take revenge, I must seek justice from that puppet and avenge this death!"
He bowed to Su Ming and said, "You are a capable person. I can remember this thanks to you."
"I listen to you. I'll do whatever you tell me to do."
The golden squirrel is very self-aware and knows that he doesn't have much brains.
Just give the command to Su Ming and let him give the orders.
Although there are not enough gold coins, it is impossible to make golden dice.
But it's not completely useless.
At least he can use the golden coins to gain some powerful helpers.
Suddenly, the golden squirrel seemed to have thought of something: "Well, wait a minute, I have something good here that may be useful to you."
After saying this, he returned to the innermost room.
He came back after a while with an exquisite wooden box in his hand.
When the wooden box was opened, twelve golden pine cones lay inside.
The golden squirrel explained: "This is my precious treasure. It can strengthen the body. I have such a good figure because of this."
"It's no use keeping it now, so I might as well give it to you guys to eat. I wouldn't have been willing to do that before."
Su Ming: "Each of you take one and eat it."
When he came here before, there was no wooden box. He could only get it when he came to this level in the final game.
He picked up a golden pine cone.
A prompt for a thriller game pops up.
[Golden Pine Cone (plot item, cannot be taken out): Squirrel's treasure. After taking it, physical fitness will be permanently increased by 0.1 times. Each player will only take the first one to produce an effect. (This effect will not disappear after leaving the dungeon)]
This is a rare and good thing.
In horror games, there are very few plot items that can be taken out of the dungeon.
The effect of this golden pine cone is to permanently strengthen the body!
Perhaps because the difficulty of this copy is too high, the horror game put this very special plot prop in the copy.
It can be considered as an extra reward for the players who have finally arrived here.
Players took the golden pine cones one after another.
After seeing the prompts for the horror game, they all exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh my god! My physical fitness has been permanently improved by 0.1 times!"
"This is so cool!"
"It's a pity that each person can only eat one, otherwise it would really take off!"
"The last time I finished the dungeon, the reward for my physical fitness was only 0.03 times."
"The stingy horror game is finally generous for once!"
"Thanks, Game House Boss!"
"This is the first time I've eaten something so delicious! So good!"
"After eating pine cones, I feel like I've been reborn!"
……
Other players are not like Su Ming, who can get a perfect rating of nightmare difficulty.
One copy can increase your physical fitness by more than 1 times.
For them, the 0.1 times physical fitness growth effect of this pine cone is already exaggerated.
Su Ming also ate a golden pine cone.
After eating, I can clearly feel that my whole body is full of strength.
The physical fitness data in the personal panel also increased from 3.1 times to 3.2 times.
This improvement is relatively small, but it can give such a clear feeling.
The physical fitness of other players is only a few times, or even a few tenths of a times. If it is improved by 0.1 times on this basis, his feeling will definitely be much more obvious.
It is even possible that one may not be able to adapt to the drastically stronger body for a while.
Su Ming: "Let's go upstairs and adapt to our stronger bodies as soon as possible."
After saying this, he led the other players to leave this floor through the stone archway and returned to the spiral staircase.
This time, their team has added the largest giant golden squirrel.
The group continued to climb up the stairs.
The golden squirrel suggested, "Since I am resurrected, the other animals should be alive as well."
"I have good relationships with many animals. I can help persuade them to deal with the puppet together!"
Upon hearing this, the players' eyes lit up.
"Yes! There are a hundred floors here, doesn't that mean there are a hundred animals in total?"
"If we can unite all the animals and attack the puppet together, even if he is very strong, he won't be able to withstand it!"
"With the help of squirrels, this thing may really be accomplished."
"Gamer geek, what do you think?"
……
Su Ming shook his head: "It won't work. Without the help of the power of the golden coin, those animals may be pulled away by the puppets at any time."
"You will soon know why."
after awhile.
when--
The bell rings.
A mechanical voice appeared in the player's ears: "The puppet has moved forward to the sixty-second space."
"Number: Six. Triggering Event: Despicable Outsider."
"The player's reputation for being despicable and shameless has spread throughout the castle, and the animals will be wary of outsiders!"
Su Ming: "This is just the beginning. There will be more disgusting incidents later."
The players began to understand what he just said.
With the interference of these events, it is very difficult to win over those animals.
Moreover, even if they are temporarily won over, if their favorability continues to decline, they may explode at any time.
Ma Ge's eyes widened as he realized something: "If this is the case, we can only pull five animals stably at most by relying on the gold coins."
"But there are ninety-five on the puppet side?"
"Five against ninety-five... Brother Squirrel, in your current state, can you beat ten?"
The golden squirrel rolled his eyes: "One against ten, do you think I'm Ip Man?"
"Although I have become stronger, if I encounter animals that are good at fighting, I can only deal with two or three at a time at most."
