Chapter 254 Heavy losses
staff dorm.
The sun shines in through the gaps in the curtains.
At this time, it was already dawn.
"Whoohoo-"
Bole sat up suddenly in bed, gasping for breath.
His whole body was soaked with sweat.
He sat on the bed, staring at the room blankly, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
After a few minutes, he uttered a hoarse voice: "So, it was just a dream!"
Last night's dream was so real.
He led the people of Macheng to break out from the blockade of human skin balloons.
I encountered countless life-and-death crises in the process.
The Macheng players who followed him died miserably in various ways.
He had no idea how long the whole process took. In his perception, only the word "long" could accurately describe it.
Until the end, he was the only one left, still struggling.
He wanted to give up at one point, but his heart told him that he must persevere.
As long as you persist, there is still hope.
Finally, he woke up at dawn.
Bole frowned: "No...why am I still here?"
"Why hasn't the clearance mission been completed yet?"
Although last night was a horrible nightmare.
However, it should also meet the mission requirements of a horror game.
He called out to Thriller Game, wanting an answer.
But I found that the clearance task had been changed.
[Clearance mission: Go to the office building to work, and after get off work, return to the staff dormitory and fall asleep.]
The previous clearance mission only had the second half [return to the staff dormitory and fall asleep].
But now, a new requirement has been added in front of it.
Bole frowned and thought deeply: "Could it be that according to the judgment of the horror game, the dream I had last night was not considered a dream?"
"If this was just a simple horror copy, there wouldn't be such twists and turns."
Soon, he realized that there was such a possibility.
"Perhaps, it's those believers of the End who are causing trouble?"
"Sure enough, they won't let us leave here easily."
Since I am in crisis, what about the other players in Macheng?
They're in the nearby room too!
He quickly got up from the bed and wanted to go to other rooms to see what was happening to the other players.
However, as soon as his feet landed.
A stabbing pain like a needle came from his head.
He staggered and almost fell here.
A deep fatigue swept over the body and mind.
I managed to get a full night's sleep, but it felt worse than if I had stayed up all night.
I can’t be dragged into that horrible dream again!
That's not just a matter of being scary.
But it will actually cause harm to him!
Bole felt that he had reached a certain limit. If it happened again, he would definitely die in a nightmare.
Leave the room, knock on each door, and call them to get up.
In the end, only six players walked out of their respective dormitories.
Among them are three extraordinary players and three ordinary players.
They were all in very exhausted spirits, and were still frightened when they talked about what happened last night.
"Last night, I had a nightmare. I dreamed that a challenge dungeon went out of control and released a group of terrifying human skin balloons. Everyone died..."
"I also had a nightmare. I dreamed that I was alone and thrown into a wilderness..."
"I dreamed that I was nailed into a coffin alive. Fortunately, I have extraordinary abilities, otherwise I would have died. After I came out, I would have been hunted down..."
"None of your dreams are as scary as mine. I have been afraid of snakes since I was a child. In my dream, I was in an underground snake cave..."
……
After communicating with each other, I found that other players were in the same miserable situation as me.
After talking to each other and sharing the pain, the feeling of discomfort was alleviated a lot.
See that none of the other players opened the door.
After discussing with each other, they went down to the first floor of the dormitory building and asked the dormitory manager for a spare set of keys.
They opened the dormitories of other Macheng players one by one, only to find that all the players inside were dead.
Their expressions were terrified, their facial muscles were twisted and deformed, and they looked extremely miserable when they died.
It looked like he was frightened to death in a dream.
At the beginning, there were a total of twenty-four players from Macheng.
Among them are six extraordinary players and eighteen ordinary players.
Just overnight, only seven were left, and three of them were ordinary players.
What’s even more terrifying is that they don’t even know where the enemy is!
This is undoubtedly a huge blow to the surviving players.
So many of my companions died, and I was lucky enough to survive.
Maybe it can survive temporarily, but for how long?
Faced with such a bleak future, the players all felt deep despair.
Bole raised his voice and encouraged the players: "Cheer up! What does it mean to be so dejected?"
"We have the items given by the General Administration to save our lives. They are not completely dead, they just left this instance before us."
"This must be the work of the End Believers! Only they have the ability to do this!"
"What we have to do now is not to lose heart, but to try our best to complete the mission and kill the End Believers!"
"After all, even if we die, we'll only lose our life-saving tools, but if they die, they'll really die!"
"It's definitely worth it to exchange our lives with them!"
Under the encouragement of Bole, the players' emotions were also lifted.
Indeed, at least I have life-saving props with me.
Scared!
"Master Bole, just tell me what to do!"
"We all listen to you!"
"Even if I have to die, I have to fight to the death for a believer of the End!"
"If we can really kill the End Believers, the General Administration will definitely give us a reward."
"That's a huge profit! I heard that the General Administration has a lot of good stuff."
"As long as we can demonstrate our value, the General Administration will definitely not be stingy with resources."
……
Bole looked at the time and said, "It's almost time, let's go to work first."
Players were a little confused about this decision.
So he asked, "Aren't we going to kill the End Followers? Why are we going to work?"
Bole explained: "In our current state, we are no longer capable of confronting the End Believers head-on."
"Let's meet up with the other players first and tell them the situation here."
"Don't let them come here and fall into the trap like we did."
Then, he took the Macheng players out of the staff dormitory.
There is a breakfast stall selling buns downstairs of the dormitory building, which is just right for solving the problem of eating.
What was strange was that there was no other customer at the breakfast stall except the owner.
After a hard night's work, it's time to eat something.
The boss said meaningfully: "It's not easy to find a job these days. Young people should abide by the rules, otherwise, you won't be able to eat in the future..."
The four words "no food to eat" make players think a lot.
They felt that what the boss said might not mean that they couldn't make money.
But those who don’t follow the rules are already dead.
The night journey back to the staff dormitory last night was the journey to work this morning.
Same as last night.
Even during the day, there was not a single car or pedestrian on this road, it was extremely deserted.
However, when they were halfway there.
I saw three familiar faces walking towards me.
The leader was a young man in a white vest, who was the strongman from Niucheng.
His face was as pale as gold paper and he would cough occasionally.
It doesn't look like the condition is very good.
There was also a young man with black-framed glasses, who was an extraordinary player spectator from Niucheng. His eyes were red and swollen, and he coughed from time to time.
Finally, there was a long-haired woman with her eyes closed and covered with a black cloth.
Her condition seems to be the best among the three players.
