Chapter 385: "Matryoshka" in the Scene
Chapter 385: "Matryoshka" in the Scene
In the game, if you can accurately know the means that your opponent can use, you can make targeted countermeasures, and most importantly, you will not be misled by the opponent.
If it is believed that Wei Si can make changes to the order of collecting key props that will affect the rules of winning or losing the level, then Luo Xi can just admit defeat and there is no need to continue.
This is obviously the effect that Wei Si wants to achieve.
But Luo Xi was very clear-headed. He was not affected by the [Ecstasy Fragrance] and [Succubus]. In fact, he was not the type of person who could hold on by relying solely on willpower.
In the spiritual realm, Luo Xi can crush his opponents.
[Absolute rationality], coupled with the extreme madness and morbidity of [mental patient], has made Luo Xi accustomed to thinking about problems in the best state even under the most severe negative emotions.
One of the important purposes of Wei Si doing all this was to mislead Luo Xi.
As long as you believe that the order in which you collect items is a necessary condition for whether you can pass the level, then no matter who you are, it is impossible for you to continue to pass the level in a situation where you cannot win.
But Luo Xi ignored all the misleading information.
His thinking, under the control of absolute rationality, was always in the best state from beginning to end.
The core gameplay of the scene is collecting props and passing levels, and this one dimension cannot be changed.
The other party can only make some modifications outside of the core gameplay.
For example, by limiting the action of the 'doctor', three other 'characters' are added to the scene as guardians of key props. For another example, prop numbers are added and restrictions on the order of acquisition are added.
But this will not affect the core gameplay, that is, even if you do not obtain the props in numerical order, you can still pass the level.
However, the numerical order of the props must be related to some mechanism.
Luo Xi speculated that it should be a kind of "death punishment".
That is, if the items are not collected in a fixed order, the player will be attacked with almost certain death.
The source of the attack is the number on the chest.
In Luo Xi's opinion, this attack might directly attack the flesh, the numbers on the chest might explode, or cause puncture-like damage to the body.
Of course, this kind of attack may also come from the spiritual realm. In short, Wei Si reconstructed a set of gameplay without changing the core gameplay of the scene.
It can be called a stroke of genius.
This makes the current "operating room" scene even more complicated and unpredictable, because at present, there is no idea what will happen in the next two prop competitions.
All Luo Xi can do is prevention.
When he went out, Luo Xi had already materialized some food cards stored in the card book and started eating like crazy.
No. 078 [Gourmet] After eating continuously and reaching a certain level, the energy obtained from food can be stored in the body. Not only can it greatly improve physical fitness, but it can also quickly repair and heal itself when it is seriously injured.
In the past, Luo Xi had escaped death more than once with the help of [Gourmet].
In Luo Xi's opinion, although [Gourmet] is not as good as cards like [Undead], their vitality is comparable. After all, one is a numbered card and the other one is not yet at that level.
"Whis's digital attack method can't be a 'sure kill' like the scene mechanism, so, logically speaking, it can be resisted. The number on the chest says that it intends to attack the heart?"
Luo Xi muttered to himself.
Just relying on [Gourmet] to resist the "pseudo-mechanism" designed by Wei Si can only be said to be a gamble.
Moreover, in this gamble, Luo Xi's chances of winning are very slim.
This time, Luo Xi pushed his observation skills to the limit, because the "pseudo-mechanism" designed by Wei Si also needed to follow the principles of fairness and justice, which meant that there must be corresponding clues in the scene.
Sure enough, Luo Xi found a crumpled piece of waste paper in the trash can.
After unfolding it, it was clearly a rough drawing made by a child, but it showed a person lying on the ground with eyes closed and blood on his chest. And around this person standing on the ground were several other figures.
One of them had very long arms and legs, and a very long face, and there was a number 1 written on the figure's head.
The one who wrote the number 4 was a woman.
In the child's drawing, the woman is just a line drawing of a woman with long hair and a rough female figure.
The other two figures, one wearing a clown hat and holding a big poker card; the last one looks like a cartoon ghost, which looks quite cute
The two figures have the numbers 2 and 3 written on their heads.
This is already a very obvious 'hint'.
"I see!"
After seeing the piece of waste paper thrown into the trash can, Luo Xi finally understood the situation of the current level scene.
"This guy Wei Si actually nested another scene in the original operating room scene. The two scenes share the same venue and the gameplay also overlaps. How did he do it?"
Luo Xi has lost all memory of the creation and management of the scenes.
At present, he only learned about it from a few administrators he knew. But neither Bai Cai nor Teacher Han had mentioned this kind of "nesting doll" situation.
"The remaining two, one is a clown and the other is a ghost, representing the numbers 2 and 3."
Luo Xi continued to look for clues.
Then in the ward area over there, Luo Xi heard someone whistling.
Very obvious, and not disguised at all.
Most of the wards here are empty, except for one that is very special.
There were no lights, but candles were lit, and human shadows were projected on the walls, swaying with the flickering candlelight.
The whistle sound came from inside. When you look closer, you will suddenly think that there are a lot of people inside, either sitting or standing, crowded together. Combined with the dim light of the candles, it might really scare people.
But if you look closely, you will find that most of the 'people' inside are made of cardboard, cut into human outlines and placed in the room. With the candles on the table in the middle, people get the illusion that there are a lot of people here.
The one blowing the whistle is a man dressed like a clown sitting behind the small table over there.
The kind that wears a double-pointed hat and has grease paint on its face, looking like the devil in poker.
After obtaining some key information, Luo Xi knew that this was the clown representing the number 2.
"Please sit down, please sit down!"
Seeing Luo Xi, the clown stopped whistling and let out a strange laugh.
Luo Xi didn't move, he was still observing.
"What you want is in my hand. If you want to get it, you must follow my rules." The clown laughed and took out a card from his pocket.
It is [A Teddy Bear Named TOM], the key prop to pass that scene.
There is no need to look for it or grab it, the clown will just show up.
"Play a game of poker with me. If you win, I'll give you something. If you lose, you have to let me eat you." The clown chuckled, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth when he grinned.
"Of course, if you plan to rob me, I will kill you directly. This is in line with the rules of the game." The Joker smiled and took out a large-caliber revolver from under the table. The chrome-plated surface looked bright silver.
Very beautiful.
The role of the clown is not a cleaner in the traditional sense, so his strength is slightly inferior to that of a normal cleaner, but it should at least be of the elite C-level standard.
Plus a pistol.
The success rate of seizing by force is too low.
Luo Xi walked over and sat opposite.
"You don't have enough chips."
Luo Xi pointed at the key prop card in the other party's hand.
"That makes sense!" Unexpectedly, the clown agreed: "One card corresponds to one life, which is indeed not equal. So, I'll add another chip."
The Joker smiled and shuffled the cards in his hand.
Just like a magic trick, the other party had an extra card in his hand.
[Crazy Gambler], you can use this card to place a bet with a target. When you decide to bet your life, the other party must also bet his life and cannot refuse - your life is the biggest bargaining chip!
Luo Xi was slightly stunned.
He looked at the clown, who was trying not to laugh, then burst out laughing: "You seem to have figured it out, haha, that's right, when you entered this room, you triggered the rules here, I want to bet your life with you, you have no choice but to agree, I was just talking nonsense just now, so if you bet your life, I will bet mine, this way, the chips are enough, and I've raised the stakes, what about you?"
With the last sentence, the clown's expression suddenly turned eerie and terrifying.
Luo Xi took out the two prop cards he had obtained earlier and placed them on the table: "Didn't Wei Si tell you? Any lie is meaningless in front of me, so your performance is actually very ridiculous and clumsy, but it's also true, after all, you are a clown."
The clown opposite stopped smiling and looked gloomy.
He looked like a villain in a horror movie, with low self-esteem and sensitivity, and became angry and humiliated after his shortcomings were exposed in public.
"If you want to gamble, hurry up and don't waste my time."
Luo Xi has been calculating the scene time.
It was obvious that the clown was just talking nonsense to delay time.
"Or else, are you delaying on purpose because you know you can't beat me?" Luo Xi began to taunt, and the clown's face became even gloomier.
"In that case, let me briefly explain the rules. It's very simple. First, each of you place a bet. This is called the 'bottom of the pot'. After you and I shuffle the cards, you can flip them over at random and check the points on the cards. The odd numbers will be dealt to me first, and the even numbers will be dealt to you first. After each of you has two 'ruler cards', you can check and compare the points on the two ruler cards. You can continue to bet on the bottom of the pot and call at the same time. If the number on the card you call is between the numbers on the previous two ruler cards, then you pass. If the number exceeds, then you lose, and all the bets on the bottom of the pot will go to the other party."
