State of Decay - Chapter 368

[Chapter 363 Level 3]

elevator returned to the 2nd floor again. This time Maya and the others sent four people. Only then did they realize that NPCs were not only hiding from zombies, but also from players. There was no other way, the elevator robbery was carried out again, and without exception, all NPC mobile phones were out of battery. However, when Xiao Dao grabbed the bracelet, the female NPC resisted desperately, saying that it was a souvenir left to her by her late mother.

Lin Wu rolled his eyes when he heard this, “You, 0 and 1, also have a mother?” As a carbon-based creature, I don’t even know who my mother is. Do you think you should die or not?

But the female NPC’s next words made Lin Dao let go of the bracelet. The female NPC said: “I heard that there is a door to hell in the hotel.” “

Oh?” Xiao Dao let go of the NPC and asked, “Where is it?”

” I just heard it from the hotel manager.” It turned out that there was a slight disturbance during the meal, and the hotel manager came to apologize. The two parties talked, and the humorous hotel manager mentioned the legend of the Gate of Hell.

This message tells the player that the hotel manager has specific clues to the hidden portal.

After sending someone to the rooftop, armed men came to pick him up. Lin Wu easily pulled off the bracelet and returned to the elevator. Xiao Dao took the bracelet and looked carefully, and saw a row of small light green gemstones in the middle of the bracelet. Xiaodao asked: “Didn’t she resist?”

Lin Wu said: “The purpose of her resistance was not to protect the bracelet, but to convey the message. NPC, this is their role.” Shuguang portrayed an NPC as cute and beautiful, and the background of the story A very nice little girl, many people are too embarrassed to do it. But Shuguang turned the NPC into a greasy, foot-picking man, so everyone didn’t have too many psychological concerns. If Shuguang dresses up an NPC as an extremely ugly and fierce-looking NPC, his mortality rate will skyrocket.

Not judging NPCs based on their appearance, and treating them fairly of the same species, this is Lin Wu’s character. I can’t stop snatching you just because you are beautiful.

The elevator took people back and forth for seven minutes, and the Shadow Team turned the light area upside down, but couldn’t find the NPC. Lin Wu asked: “Can’t we connect the power supply like yesterday on the 54th floor?”

Xue Dan: “No, the situation

is different.” Shana: “No need to explain, just say no.”

Lin Wu glared at Shana, Shana smiled Asked: “Do you want to listen?”

“No.” Lin Wu looked at Maya: “What’s the plan? Give up the second floor?”

Maya said: “We have eliminated some of the night demons and most of the zombies, and we have information on the scene. In this kind of situation Under such circumstances, it would be unwise to abandon the second floor and go to other floors. We have prepared burning materials and will use firelight to cut the area.”

Xue Dan added: “The fire cannot be too big, otherwise it will trigger the sprinkler.”

Lin Wu turned around Looking at dozens of bundles of candles on the ground, he asked, “Light a candle?” This thing can light up a big area of the butt.

“Light a few more candles.” Maya said: “Lin Wu and Shana are on guard, while Xue Dan and I light candles.”

Xiaodao: “What about me?”

“Stay at the elevator base.”

Knowing that Night Demon has the highest IQ among zombies, but To everyone’s surprise, when everyone was placing candles on the dining room table, the night devil on the edge of darkness actually started blowing out the candles. Thus, the Candle Hunting Plan begins.

Light the candle and wait. The Night Demon appears at the edge of the light and shoots him in the head from ten meters away. Keep waiting, and the second Night Demon appears.

The limitations of IQ allow the night demons to come out of the darkness one by one to die, making everything extremely simple. After waiting for 1 minute and no Night Demon showed up, Maya confirmed that the first step of the battle plan was completed.

The foursome went to the kitchen of the restaurant immediately, unplugged all electrical appliances, and the snow egg was successfully delivered. The kitchen light cuts the dark area into two parts. The next step was to unplug all the power supplies in the restaurant area and the power supply was successful. Finally, there were the passage area and the rooms on both sides of the passage area. Nearly ten night demons were squeezed into this space and were quickly eliminated by the Shadow Team. Then Snow Egg lit up the entire second floor.

Then it was hide-and-seek time, and everyone started rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find NPCs. The first thing that was discovered was a thin girl inside a large decorative vase, and then a man on the ceiling of the toilet. In the space between the stove and hanging from the ceiling with a rope, behind the curtains, inside the refrigerator, there is no place you can’t think of to hide someone. In 15 minutes, the Shadow Team dug out 7 NPCs.

In the final result, the Shadow Team rescued 12 NPCs and took away countless belongings from their bodies.

After taking stock of the results of the restaurant, Lin Wu felt that the robbery was right because there was no valuable jewelry or cash in the entire restaurant. In other words, the game is designed to allow players to obtain property from NPCs. After all, there was still a safe in copy 334 yesterday.

…

The battle on the 2nd floor is over, with a total of 12 NPCs. The Shadow Team is more concerned about the hotel manager’s location than going to other floors to rescue NPCs. According to the understanding of the game mechanism, the NPC can tell the hotel manager’s information, indicating that the hotel manager is still alive. But where would he be?

Shana opened the hotel map and discussed with Maya: “The first floor is the lobby, cafe, and tourism department. The lobby is the most busy department in the entire hotel, and it is also a very troublesome department, so there is a lobby manager. Unless there is a big event or VIP guests are being received, Otherwise, the hotel manager will not go to the lobby.”

Shana said: “The second floor is the restaurant, and the situation is similar to the first floor.”

Maya asked: “Why does the hotel manager stay away from places with many things?”

Shana said: “It is convenient for him to follow up. Handling. For example, if you are dissatisfied with the lobby manager’s handling and make trouble in the lobby, the hotel manager can intervene in the name of a superior to better calm the matter. Secondly, the hotel manager’s work focus is not on the daily trivial matters of the hotel. For example, complaints , especially complaints about guest rooms. Most hotel guest rooms account for more than 70% of hotel profits, and the restaurant is just a supporting facility.”

When Shana paused, Maya took the opportunity to interrupt: “Third floor.”

Shana glanced at Lin Wu and Lin Wu were confused: “What?”

“It’s okay.” Although it wasn’t Lin Wu who interrupted him, it always felt like it was him. Shana continued her analysis: “The third floor is the administrative office floor. All the hotel department offices are here, and it is also the most likely location for the hotel manager.”

Xiaodao: “Isn’t it a night copy? He should be sleeping.”

“The copy is at night. , it will never be dawn, but it is not night time. Otherwise, there would not be so many people in the restaurant, and there might even be no one at all.” Shana said: “We found information on the 32nd floor. There was an incident on the 17th floor, and the security guards on the 32nd floor went to support. We can see that there is a security department on the 3rd floor, so the security on the 32nd floor is just a sentry, not a department. I think it is used to receive helicopter customers, etc.”

Maya nodded: “If all the security guards on the 32nd floor are transferred to the 17th floor , then the hotel manager is most likely on the 17th floor.”

Shana: “At present, the 3rd floor and the 17th floor are the most likely. From the information, I know that there is an NPC on the 3rd floor, and the NPC on the 3rd floor must be a hotel employee. I suggest you go to the third floor to find it first NPC, get as much information as possible. After all, we haven’t met a living staff member yet.”

Maya said: “Of the two elevators we control, only the one with a capacity of 4 people has a third-floor button. The other elevators cannot operate. Xuedan, Shana and Xiaodao, who of you is the bravest?”

Everyone said together: “Me.” No one wanted to give up the action.

The knife pried off their hands: “Me, hehe.”

Maya nodded: “Okay, you stay on the 32nd floor and watch the elevator.”

Xiaodao was startled: “What does it mean to be bold?”

“I am alone in the hotel, losing contact with everyone, and it is still night.” Maya said: “It is necessary. A certain amount of courage.”

Xiao Dao cried: “Actually, I am very timid.”

Maya ignored the performance: “Get in the elevator.”

Elevator No. 1 returned to the 32nd floor first, and except for Xiao Dao, everyone else took Elevator 2 to the third floor. .

Xiaodao didn’t feel anything while squatting in the elevator before. After all, the space was small and his companions were all fighting. It’s completely different now. Although there are lights on the 32nd floor, and although every room has been explored, looking at the quiet corridors and every room with open doors, I always feel that an evil spirit will suddenly pounce on me from behind.

Xiaodao didn’t find a place to cover his head and hide. Instead, he stood in the corridor outside the elevator, holding a pistol in his hand and turning his body warily, looking for possible changes. For example, an A4 paper on the ground seems to be farther away. Is it caused by the wind? Is it to tempt myself to go and get it? The quieter you are, the more your mind thinks about.

On the other side, the elevator opens on the third floor, and there is a battle as soon as it opens. The zombies on both sides of the corridor heard the noise and ran towards the elevator waiting hall, which was more than ten square meters in size. The Shadow Team kept emptying magazines, and the sound of pistols and rifles firing bullets was endless. After a long time, the gunfire stopped, and Maya said in her heart: Thank you Stone. If Shitou hadn’t earned bullets by playing Leopard Machine all night long, he wouldn’t have been able to take the first step out of the third floor.

From the 2nd floor to the 3rd floor, it can be seen from the two scenes that the dungeon is testing the player’s bullet reserves. According to the current consumption rate, Maya is estimated to be able to hit three levels. For safety reasons, she can only hit two more layers at most. The most pity is that because the battle was so fierce, most of the cards disappeared because they were not taken away in time.

Xuedan sighed: “I haven’t fired as many bullets today in 15 months.”

Maya nodded calmly: “Such a big movement should pull out all the zombies. Shana and Lin Wuqing left the room, while Xuedan and I cleaned up the right side. room, eliminate the hidden dangers on the floor first.”

“Understood.”

Xuedan turned the button and stopped the elevator on this floor, then divided the troops into two groups.

Lin Wu was still picking the lock, and Maya had already kicked open a door. Lin Wu said, “Aren’t you afraid that there is a legion inside?”

Maya replied, “I knocked on the door.” If there is a zombie legion, there must be movement.

Lin Wu looked at Shana, who said, “I have no power.”

In order to cope with the demand, Su Shi made 20 lock picks. Lin Wu pried open the lock and looked at Shana. Shana nodded. Lin Wu opened the door and Shana entered the room with a gun. There were no zombies.

As soon as the two relaxed, there was a sound of slapping from the closet next to the office. Shana was alert. Lin Wu opened the closet door sideways and a female NPC fell out. He looked up at the two of them and said, “Save me.”

Shana was about to say Stepping forward, Lin Wu stopped him with his body: “Stand up.”

Shana whispered: “NPC.”

“Haha, all the NPCs are afraid that we will find out, but she is the only one who is afraid that we will not find out.” Lin Wu shouted: “Take off your clothes. Shana

was immediately startled: “Isn’t that bad?”

Lin Wu ignored her and fired a shot at the ground: “Take off your coat.”

The girl asked Shana for help, and Shana said: “Take off your coat, or you will be killed.” You.”

So the girl took off her coat. She was originally wearing a half-sleeved summer work clothes. After taking off the foreman’s suit and uniform, she revealed a tooth mark on her forearm. The mark was black. The flesh around the mark seemed to have faded. Start to fester.

The girl begged: “I was bitten, but I have no mutation, I have antibodies.”

Lin Wu said: “Then let me ask a few questions first. Where is the hotel manager?”

“The manager’s office is opposite. Where did he go?” I don’t know. I opened the door and saw zombies, so I closed the door and hid.”

Lin Wu said: “Second question, have you heard of the legend of the hotel, the legend related to the Gate of Hell?” “

Yes, the manager chatted with us. I have told this legend, it is said that He, He, He…”

The girl’s face twitched, her expression became ferocious, she fell to the ground and her whole body began to twitch. Lin Wu was angry: “Are you mistaken? This is not a movie. You have to pinch yourself to death.”

Shana ended the girl’s life and said: “She was just verifying that the manager knew the information about the portal. She had no right.” Reveal more information.”

“Search.”

No NPC was found in this room, but a little cash was found. This is the housekeeping manager’s office, which is provided for the housekeeping supervisors to rest at night. A diary was found in the desk. The diary recorded that a string of beads played by the hotel’s catering director was extremely expensive. The sisters guessed the price, and one guessed five million. Only the person who wrote the diary knew that this string of beads was given to him by the catering director’s father and cost more than 10 million.

“Beads? Ten million?”

“In the eyes of those who like it, ten million is just a price.”

“No, I mean it’s better to sell the beads and retire directly.”

Shana smiled: “Lin Wu, you can score some points He is so tall, how can he still be a rich person on earth? You have to know that among people who hope to retire as soon as possible, there are very few successful people. The older a person is, the more they pursue a sense of achievement. The higher the social status of a person, the more He doesn’t want to retire. Retirement means that his social status will return to zero.”

Lin Wu: “I will retire.”

Sha Na: “That is, your goal is to eat, drink and have fun.”

Lin Wu asked: “What about you?”

Sha Na : Na was startled and thought for a long time: “I want to have my own career, but I don’t want to be a master of extermination. I want to have a happy family, but I don’t want to be tied down by my family. I want to see everywhere, but I don’t want to be alone. One person.”

“Find a nanny who can meet all your needs.” In the early years, this industry was called soft rice. With the development of society, since there are full-time wives, there are naturally full-time husbands. It is not a shameful profession.

Shana said: “It’s hard for me to fall in love with a boy who is much worse than me, and a boy who is similar to me is unwilling to be a daddy.” She looked at Lin Wu.

“Don’t think about it, I don’t want to. When you get to Earth, I will kill you with money in minutes.” Lin Wu said, “Clear it and go to the manager’s office.”

Shana glanced at the office again and followed Lin Wu to the manager’s office. The door was open, and it was empty inside, with no zombies or NPCs. The manager’s desk is neat and clean, which seems to indicate that he is a rigorous person and also a poor person. Only about 10,000 dollars worth of property and cash were found in the entire office.

Shana: “Are you really going to the 17th floor?” Judging from the current information, 17th floor should be the most difficult floor.

Maya’s voice came from the headset: “I found an NPC here.”

Shana: “You used to use ‘bits’ as units for NPCs.” She glanced at Lin Wu, and only Lin Wu knew how to use “bits” as units. to calculate NPCs.

Lin Wu was dissatisfied: Do you like birds? You have a bird. Do you think the bird or the NPC is more important? Since more important birds can be counted individually, why can’t NPCs be counted individually?
