Novel Bin Chapter 20: Ghost Cruise
Chapter 20: Ghost Cruise
The next day, when Wuji Gu woke up, he saw Jia Cheng, who had a pair of dark circles under her eyes, looking excitedly at him.
"Master Gu, I've got the information all sorted out!"
"You haven't slept all night?" Wuji Gu was a little surprised.
"After all, it was a task given by Master Gu, how could I be slack?" Jia Cheng said. Jia Cheng opened his mouth and said, his tone was a bit embarrassed, "but because some information is more secret, I finally had to order others to find."
In fact, he himself is a little bit of the check is scared half to death, directly instructed others to do it ...... can not sleep also mainly because of the relationship of fear, it is over there to play the game all night.
Wuji Gu didn't care, he didn't have much hope in Jia Cheng's ability to do things on his own, so he went to wash up and picked up his phone to read the information Jia Cheng had sent him.
Jia Cheng's relationship is quite reliable, what has happened in this hospital are shown in detail, but they are all insignificant things, the only thing that caught his attention is a woman who died suddenly in the elevator of the hospital a few months ago.
Because the other party originally has a genetic disease, plus the power behind this private hospital to block the news, and gave the other party's family generous compensation, this matter is surprisingly no news from the outside world.
"It seems that she is the ghost in the elevator, but this thing always feels where it looks strange."
As for the faceless nurse, and the faceless doctor who only exists on that piece of paper on the wall (which has not yet had time to appear), it really doesn't seem to have anything to do with this hospital.
Wuji Gu also did not bother to think so much, he has always been the first to solve the problem at hand. Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m n0v𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)/m
Next to Jia Cheng is still looking at Wuji Gu with trepidation, fearing that there is something wrong with the content.
Wuji Gu nodded to him after reading it, "There's nothing wrong with it, you did a good job."
"That's good!" Jia Cheng sighed in relief, "Master Gu, let's get out of here!"
Last night, although he has been playing games, but always feel the atmosphere around strange, so he has been suspicious, the morning are going to have a nervous breakdown, anyway, here he can no longer stay.
"OK. I'll get ready first."
Wuji Gu always have a sense of crisis this time, thinking that at least to meet the director of the most likely problem, he can not go empty-handed like this, if the other side really have any problems will not be a problem.
So Wuji Gu instructed Jia Cheng to go out and contact Director Huang to see when to go over, while he opened the system interface and started browsing the props inside.
The most popular of course is a variety of protective props, although there is a limit to the number of times, and the face of the ghost will not last long, but this is completely for the players to fight the time to escape.
Wuji Gu's eyes look around at the various props before finally settling on one item.
[Purification LV1: Can purify a low-level unhinged ghost so that it does not have to remain bound to it. Price: 1000 points.]
[When facing spirits with sentience, you need to dissolve their grievances in order to function].
This can be said to be the cheapest skill in the mall, other skills are at least on points to start, so that ordinary players can only be gluttonous.
But even if so cheap, there are few players will buy, buy the players are feeling as if they were pitted, but also run to the bottom of the insult.
"If I could dissolve the grievances of those powerful ghosts, what would I need this purification technique for? It's like a chicken feed."
"I thought I could upgrade this skill after buying it, and then I could directly purify high-level ghosts, but I was actually told that purifying low-level ghosts does not increase experience, and the 1,000 points that I had worked so hard to save ah, can buy life-saving props!"
"Such a garbage skill, whoever buys it will suffer!"
......
Although the skill was extremely garbage for others, Wuji Gu was interested in it and intuitively felt it must be very useful, so he chose to buy it without even thinking about it.
If other players saw it, they would have cursed Wuji Gu for being a loser.
The moment I bought the skill, Wuji Gu felt a coolness flooding into his body, and it was as if there was more knowledge in his mind, usually dormant in the deepest part of his subconscious, only to be mobilized when needed.
After purchasing the skills, Wuji Gu suddenly thought, "It feels like I still have too few points after all this ......"
Wouldn't it be safer if you could buy another prop?
"System, can you hurry up and move on to the next copy."
[......]
"No?" Wuji Gu couldn't help but frown.
[Sure.]
But generally where someone would be so desperate to get out before they have to go in ah!
[Early access to the copies is rewarded with points and the ability to pick one of the three copies].
[Do you really want to choose to enter the copy now?]
"Wait." Wuji Gu's face suddenly changed.
The system also thought, "Is this guy finally scared?
Wuji Gu is seen saying to Jia Cheng, who is still on the phone outside, "I'll sleep again."
Then Wuji Gu laid down on the bed and changed to a comfortable position.
"It's OK now. I used to have a sore back every time I woke up lying on the floor."
[......]
[Players can choose from the following three copies.
1, Ghost Cruise: You, as a bodyguard of a rich man, arrive on a luxury cruise ship with your invited employer, but soon, you find that everything is wrong here.
2, abandoned hospital: what is hidden in the abandoned hospital for many years? As a journalist, you did not give up your idea of doing something big after the last abandoned villa adventure, and once again came to such a bizarre location.
3, Desert Island Escape: You are caught with others on a desert island and become prey for rich people with special fetishes to play with, but in this place, the hunters seem to be more than just people].
Wuji Gu keenly noticed the introduction of the abandoned hospital and asked, "Is it actually still linked to the first copy? Does it mean that certain copies are all in the same world?"
[The player's current authority cannot query these messages.]
Although the system did not answer, but no matter how you look at it is the meaning of this.
Does it mean that he will most likely encounter the ghosts from the previous copies in the future?
Wuji Gu's body stiffened as he thought of the terrifying ghost he met in his first copy, one of the very few that was too much for Wuji Gu to handle.
As for the deserted island escape, Wuji Gu feel that they still need to rest a little, or do not play such an exciting up, and chose the ghost cruise.
After all, the background is in the luxury cruise ship, in the haunted at the same time should still be able to enjoy some of the bar.
-------
Wuji Gu After waking up, you will see the turquoise blue sea, and the cool sea breeze will make you feel a refreshing feeling.
This is exactly the open-air restaurant of a luxury cruise ship with an extremely beautiful view. Now it is quite lively, many men and women who look rich and extraordinary are sitting around, eating the food brought up by the waiter while climbing happily.
Although it seems to be a very ordinary scene, but always let Wuji Gu feel where there is a sense of incongruity. If you take a closer look, you can also find that the staff on board don't look very good, obviously in fear of something.
[You are all temporary highly paid bodyguards hired by a wealthy gentleman before his trip].
Wuji Gu was pulled back by the system's words and noticed that he was wearing an extremely well-cut pitch-black suit, standing behind a blond youth, apparently performing his duties as a bodyguard.
He looked around and saw four other people standing behind him, three men and one woman, and it looked like they were the other players.
That said, this employer is looking for too many bodyguards.
[The moment you set foot on this luxury cruise ship with countless bad rumors, you already vaguely sensed that something was wrong. Will you really be able to pass these next few days safely?]
[Triggered main quest: Find the secret lurking in the cruise ship].
At the end of the system's prompt, several people came together.
There is no doubt that in this Wuji Gu is the most outstanding, he was already in perfect shape, after wearing this suit, that temperament, that face, not like any bodyguard, that he is a rich son are believed.
Three of the other four look to be on good terms, presumably coming together as a team.
Wuji Gu previously saw in the mall, through some props can team up together to enter the copy, but he does not have such a teammate now, and no points to buy props is it.
The three men had a somewhat exclusive attitude, and the leader was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, whom the other two referred to as Zheng. At this time, Zheng looked at Wuji Gu and another person warily and spoke, "We will do our own work on this mission, do not affect others, you take care of yourselves."
The rest is a gloomy teenager who looks just 17 or 18 years old, named Ling Jiang, looks also looks quite handsome, but apparently there is no intention to communicate with others, in addition to the beginning of the introduction of their own, after not a word, now hear Zheng's words also just sneer.
Wuji Gu is also very understandable, after all, these copies always some people will want to use others to live, so some people only believe in their own people is normal, but he would not do so is it.
"Zheng, this is the first time you copy ah! I am the third time, always feel so worried ah, there are so many people on this cruise ship, if they all become ghosts will we not die immediately." A female voice rang out from the middle-aged man's side.
There were snickers from this side, and Ling Jiang opened his mouth and said, "How insightful, copies are limited, and low-level copies like ours are even safer, the more powerful the ghosts are the more they are bound, and the less they can hurt people."
The woman over there was disliked in this way, and suddenly her face changed, obviously that is the heart is not happy, but in the way of the surrounding environment can not play out.
The scene became a little tense for a while, but no one wanted to find an enemy for themselves at this time and ended up pretending that nothing had happened.
Wuji Gu suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if there was some hot sight staring at him from somewhere, turned his head over but could only see the empty sea below.
This side of the sea is covered by the shadow of the cruise ship, the color appears with a few muddy, completely unable to see what exists below, triggering people full of unpleasant associations.
"Could ...... be what's in the seawater?"
At this time, young master Sidun Ao, who had been sitting in the same place, finally finished his breakfast and stood up, turning his head to look at the crowd.
Everyone at this point is paused, did not expect this copy of the employer ...... or such a beautiful young man.
Sidun Ao's blonde hair looked even brighter in the early morning sunlight, and his azure eyes swept over the crowd, finally landing on Wuji Gu.
He showed a condescending and a little disdainful smile, "You will be my companion for the rest of the trip."
[There is no doubt that your employer, young master Sidun Ao, is an uneducated fop with an exclusive personality who will never listen to other people's opinions].
[You are young master Sidun Ao's bodyguards and must keep him safe].
[Trigger side quest: Cannot put employer in danger].
This side mission is very common, but in addition to himself to protect the life of one more person, or in such an extremely dangerous psychic copy, everyone else obviously will not be okay to give themselves trouble.
The eyes of the others were sympathetic to Wuji Gu, who was directly appointed by young master Sidun Ao. Who knows what will happen to the employer who looks like a playboy, maybe Wuji Gu will not investigate anything, and he will be killed by the young master.
Wuji Gu did not look embarrassed, but showed a friendly and professional smile, " Young Master Sidun Ao, of course, I will protect you well."
Don't say what is difficult, Wuji Gu even feel very kind. Such a dude, he seems to know one not long ago ......
I don't know why, but the young master Sidun Ao, who has always been a lawless man, has a vague sense of foreboding coming out of his heart at this time.
