Chapter 178 Goodbye Clown Merchant, Helpless Lamb Set
Chapter 178 Goodbye Clown Merchant, Helpless Lamb Set
A dark grey sweater, black pants, and almost no decoration.
After getting off the bus, Su Ming looked at the attire of the four of them. It was full of rustic flavor and was out of place with this place.
Young people walked by in a hurry, old men and women sat on the roadside chatting, store staff were soliciting customers, and a few aunts were handing out flyers...
But without exception, they all looked at the four of them with strange eyes.
There is a look of condescending scrutiny in their eyes. They may be smiling or look indifferent, but deep in their gazes are hidden deep greed and desire.
It's like four weak and helpless little sheep accidentally straying into a world populated by ferocious beasts.
Zhang Tieshu, Zhan Shen and the anxiety patient also felt panicky and thought the atmosphere here was extremely weird.
But I can't tell where this strange feeling comes from.
It was clearly just a normal small town street scene, and everyone looked normal.
There was nothing strange happening.
Why do they feel inexplicably depressed?
"Hey hey hey! Welcome to Gray City!"
A shrill and strange laugh suddenly appeared, and Su Ming felt that the shrill tone was a little familiar.
Such a distinctive tone will definitely leave an impression after you hear it.
He looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a street stall appeared on the roadside at some point. A clown in a red suit, green tie and leather boots was squatting in front of the stall and suddenly jumped up.
He has blue-green curly hair and his face is covered with white paint. His eyes and nose are covered with blue-green and red paint respectively. He also covers his lips and cheeks with red paint to create an exaggerated smile.
The clown opened his arms and laughed wildly: "HAHAHAHA!!"
He laughed, danced and performed an impromptu dance that lasted ten seconds.
Finally, he posed and said, "I think you have already guessed my identity."
"Yes, I am the most popular clown businessman - Mr. K!"
"Everyone! Before you step into the grave of death, please buy some burial objects for yourself!"
Su Ming: "..."
Turns out it was this guy, no wonder the voice sounded so familiar.
In the last dungeon, the merchant he met was the clown merchant, who also called himself Mr. K.
At that time, he bought three clown blind boxes from the other party, and all the things he opened were useless garbage.
Isn’t it said that the probability of encountering a clown merchant is very low? How come I encountered it for the second time before I had even experienced a few horror games?
The three men standing in front of each other looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
How could they be so unlucky to have to encounter the clown merchant!
They all carried 20,000 to 30,000 points allocated by the Countermeasures Bureau.
This is to allow them to buy some useful items from the merchant at the beginning of the dungeon, increasing the probability of successfully completing the challenge dungeon.
But he met a clown merchant, whose blind boxes were notoriously disappointing.
Only a very few lucky ones can get useful horror props out of it.
Any other players who dare to play this will only waste their points.
Although the four players didn't react enthusiastically, the clown businessman was still enthusiastic: "Take a look, take a look!"
"This is a brand new blind box. Each person is limited to one. The price is equal to all the points you have."
Looking at the stall in front of the clown, there were only four large blind boxes standing alone.
Su Ming couldn't help but complain: "Your intention to cheat points is clearly written on your face!"
I remember that the last time I met him, he gave them several blind boxes of different points levels to choose from.
This time, four blind boxes were directly put out, and the points of the four people were collected.
The clown businessman took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth: "What do you mean by cheating? This blind box is a specially customized version."
"This is a rare benefit. It's a rare opportunity for me to do good deeds. Don't regret it if you miss this chance!" Zhang Tieshu, Zhan Shen and the anxiety patient looked at Su Ming, wanting him to make the decision.
Zhang Tieshu: "Boss, what should we do? Should we buy it?"
The anxious patient whispered, "Why do I feel like this guy just wants to cheat all our points away?"
After all, the points were allocated to them by the Strategy Bureau, which to some extent could be considered public funds.
It's fine to buy horror props normally, and you can use them if you want, but it's really unacceptable to use them to buy the clown merchant's box and waste it.
Su Ming made the decision: "Buy it. Being able to pass the level alive is more important than anything else."
Zhan Shen nodded: "As long as we can return alive, it is of great value in itself. Even if the points are wasted, the bureau won't say anything. If we die here, the points will also be wasted."
"If I can go back, I will go and explain to the director."
After saying that, he took the lead and came to the clown merchant's stall, selected a big blind box, and then opened it.
Inside was a neatly folded blood-red coat.
[Blood-colored coat of the helpless lamb: a special plot item. A coat that can help players resist a certain degree of danger. It will be taken back after the dungeon ends, and points will be returned in proportion to the wear and tear.]
Picking up the coat, I saw bloody handprints all over the white coat, which looked quite evil.
After seeing the introduction of the item, Su Ming realized what was going on.
Maybe it's because the difficulty of the horror game is too high and there are too many fatal points.
Therefore, in this way, plot props are given to players to reduce the difficulty of some copies.
Even if you pay for points, you can still get a refund if you get out alive.
The clown businessman laughed strangely, "Hehehe! I didn't lie to you, did I? I told you that this is really a benefit."
"The effects of these four plot props are even better than those of the perfect horror props!"
"However, even if they got them, the previous two groups of players still died miserably."
"Well, I did make quite a bit of money. You players have a lot of points."
Su Ming and the other three opened the big blind box one after another.
They also each received a plot prop.
[The Bloody Trousers of the Helpless Lamb: A special plot item. Trousers that can help players resolve dangers...]
[The Bloody Shoes of the Helpless Lamb: A special plot item. Shoes that can help players escape from danger...]
[The Blood Wallet of the Helpless Lamb: A special plot item. A wallet that can help players earn more wealth...]
[Tip: If a player uses two or more Lamb series special plot props at the same time, it will cause terrible danger. ]
These four special plot props, judging from their names, seem to be able to form a Helpless Lamb suit.
For some stand-alone games and online games, if you can put together a set of equipment, it can often trigger good benefit effects.
But this Lamb Suit is different. Once multiple pieces are concentrated on one person, it will cause danger.
This requires allocation.
Su Ming thought about it and chose the lamb's bloody wallet.
A function that can help him make money faster would be of some use to him.
This is a brown leather wallet stained with blood. When the zipper is opened, there is a stack of banknotes inside.
He counted them and found the total was four hundred and forty-four dollars and forty cents.
Beyond that, there was a note.
[The helpless lamb encountered wolves, tigers and leopards. Its shoes could not outrun the beasts’ legs and feet, and its clothes could not stop the beasts’ sharp claws and fangs. It took out its wallet to buy its life, but was still eaten. —A bard passing by Gray City]
This note actually appeared here and was given to the player for free. I remembered that in the previous CD game, he had to die many times before he got it.
Su Ming: "There are three items left, one for each of you, just take whatever you like."
