"No." Su Mingan denied.

"Otherwise why did you take the initiative to talk to me?" Siboer said, "Aren't you afraid of being heard by other competitors? In this silent night."

"I'm just weird." Su Mingan said: "This kind of environment deliberately interferes with people's five senses, gradually making people become anxious and fearful. Even I will be affected a little, but you seem to be very calm."

"I've already said it, I'm used to it." She said, "Don't change the subject, you are still very scared, right?"

"I……"

"The way you try to defend yourself is a bit cute," Siboer said.

"..."

Su Ming'an had long discovered that Xi Boer was not that timid, but he didn't expect that she could say such a thing.

Of course, as always, those love-minded viewers who only know how to watch the show started jumping up and down in the live broadcast room as expected, shouting some speechless words.

But he only felt that Siboer seemed to be even more unfathomable.

She seemed to say this just to test his reaction.

"...Okay, we're here." Siboer suddenly said.

Su Mingan immediately stretched out his hand and motioned for her to squat down.

He had noticed that there was an open space ahead and they were almost out of the forest.

They hid in the bushes and observed the movement on the plain ahead. The light of the soul stone was pressed down by his hand, barely covering their crouching bodies. He looked out through the gaps in the leaves, and saw the plain land.

Many players have already gathered.

Apparently, they were all attracted by the fireworks blooming in the night sky.

But what worries Su Mingan the most is that almost none of these players have soul stones.

They were directly exposed to the black mist, either carrying an ordinary oil lamp or waiting there with a flashlight. Only a few two or three players had soul stones on hand.

Su Ming'an vaguely realized that soul stones were really scarce. Not only did Lu Shu and Yamada Machichi not have them, but even the powerful players who dared to be attracted by such unknown fireworks and were confident in their own strength had basically no soul stones.

Siber opened the leaves and observed the people gathered in the open space.

The players and their respective leaders stood one by one. The players were on guard against each other and were in a tense confrontation.

"Raphael, Kane, Hetos, Luo Yi, Li Yujie, Severn..." Siboer glanced at them and recognized all the leaders: "...they are all troublesome people.

Let’s get together. This large-scale festival that is about to open should be quite difficult.”

"Is it okay for these players to be exposed to the black mist like this?" Su Mingan asked.

"It won't matter for a while, but it will be hard to tell after a long time." Siboer said: "Although outsiders like you have very low immunity to the black mist, generally speaking, when your mental state is pretty good,

Sometimes, you don't need the soul stone for a long time, it will just make you mentally weak."

Su Mingan understood.

This means that at the beginning of the game, everyone's sanity value is quite high, and they can survive for a while without relying on soul stones. When exposed to the black mist, their sanity value will be deducted first. But when the sanity value reaches a certain level, there will be no more souls.

Stone, they won't be able to bear the curse.

In other words, soul stone = san value retainer.

Su Mingan carefully observed the situation on the ground.

This is an area near the edge of the forest, and there are wooden fences set up by the hunters to prevent wild beasts. Not far away, you can vaguely see fields, wheat and scarecrows, and narrow mud roads lying on the ground.

The stream extends like a fork to all directions of the dark soil, and large tracts of golden wheat extend into the distance in a regular square array, like a dark golden carpet.

This should be the junction area between farmland and forest. You can vaguely see rows of two- and three-story buildings in the distance, as well as pig pens and chicken pens. This is a large farm that develops both agriculture and animal husbandry.

And the blood-colored fireworks stayed right above the open space and are still condensing. It seems to be a special signaling prop, attracting players coming from all directions.

Currently, there are seven players present. They are confronting each other in the open space. There should be some players hiding nearby.

They didn't know who was sending the signal and got into a confrontation when they arrived. Without a mediator, it would be difficult for them to reach a peaceful consensus.

"Snapped!"

At this time, suddenly, a loud clap sounded, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The person who set off the fireworks finally appeared.

Amid the nervous gazes, a bonfire suddenly lit up in the center of the open space. A person appeared out of thin air in the light, like a shadow spliced ​​together by the fire.

When he raised his head, the friendly smile on his face gave people a sense of security.

His charm is at least A, otherwise he wouldn't be able to make all the players at the top of the list relax a little.

He has regular facial features, combining the depth of Western eyes and the softness of Eastern facial lines. He is dressed in a pure white suit. When he appears bathed in light, he looks like Prince Charming in a fairy tale.

Next to him stood a leader who was completely covered in black robes. This was a smart move so that others could not determine the identity of the leader.

He waved his hand, and the bloody fireworks in the sky suddenly disappeared.

"The mission of the fireworks has ended here. Thank you all for accepting the invitation." He spoke softly and bowed slightly to everyone.

"Lu. Are you setting off fireworks to summon players to participate in this large-scale dungeon?" said a male player with a flashlight in the open space nearby.

Lu looked at the player who asked the question and smiled gently.

His whole body was bathed in the brilliant firelight, and his sea-blue hair and white cheeks were illuminated brightly.

"...Yes, I discovered the first large-scale dungeon. It can only be opened at night, and it can only be opened once. I feel that this opportunity cannot be missed. Why not call everyone together to share the opportunity - now there are twelve

Now that all the players are here, this large dungeon can be opened."

Lu raised his hand and looked at the blue disk floating in his hand, which was like a GPS: "——The four friends hiding in the forest, since they are all here, can you come out and meet them? I believe,

You take the risk and travel at night because you want to earn some silver stars, right? In that case, why don’t we try this large dungeon together?”

Su Ming'an, who was squatting in the bushes, was slightly startled. He wore a sniper pistol [Wandering at Night] on his waist. Logically speaking, it should not be easy to be discovered.

…

Special attribute [Night Travel]: Equipping this gun at night will automatically reduce the player's presence and reduce the probability of detection of the player by other people's detection skills.

…

He has never tried the passive skill that comes with this gun, but the effect should be good. At least he just walked along and passed by two or three players, but none of them noticed him.

He didn't know that the "four players hiding in the forest" mentioned at the intersection did not include him.

Lu looked around and said loudly: "Four friends, the venue for this large dungeon should be the farm ahead. It will open in ten minutes. If you don't want to miss the opportunity, please come out quickly."

As Lu said this, three more players gradually walked out of the forest.

Su Mingan knows the situation of Lu. He is a frequent player in the top ten of the rankings, and he is also a top player with a unique style.

The most "unique" thing about Lu is that he is a player who likes to interact with the audience.

Normally, the players at the top of the list would like to invest 120% of their energy in completing the dungeon and have no time to talk to the audience. But Lu is an exception. Not only does he often chat with the audience, he also treats the audience as friends, and even makes friends with many regular residents.

The audience in the live broadcast room is very familiar with each other.

The most admirable thing is that when ordinary players chat with the audience, they can easily get carried away while chatting, or have their original words distorted, and be led into the whirlpool of public opinion between adventure players and casual players, causing a lot of quarrels.

. But Lu is an exception. When he chats with the audience, the topic is always relaxed and harmonious. Even if someone contains verbal traps in the barrage, he can easily avoid it.

Overall, he is a natural anchor - a world game anchor.

Some adventure players are good at chatting, but Lu is strong and friendly. As a result, although his strength is not the strongest, he is the most popular. It seems that all unfavorable public opinion topics have nothing to do with him.

Going around. Even when the sixth world just ended and the adventure players went crazy when they returned, they didn't have any negative connection with him.

Su Ming'an believed that this kind of person who was able to play both sides and deal with power and public opinion calmly was indeed much better than an ordinary student like him. He was also a little surprised to see Lu himself here.

Eleven people had already arrived. Su Mingan waited for a while, but no one showed up again.

"Is there another friend who can show up? The instance will start in two minutes." Lu said with a smile.

...I guess it's him I'm talking about.

Just as Su Ming'an was about to stand up, he suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from beside him.

A young man with blond hair and blue eyes, followed by a arrogant leader, walked out with his arms folded and his posture was quite arrogant.

"Our last friend has appeared. Good evening, Aini, although this is the first time we meet in the dungeon." Lu smiled.

"I thought Su Ming'an would be attracted by the fireworks. It's a pity that I didn't wait for him." Aini snorted.

"I was also surprised that the first player didn't come. I heard that he appeared nearby during the day." Lu said: "I thought I could compete with him. I like his skill configuration very much. Also...

I quite like him as a person.”

"This coward is probably still staying in his room..." Aini sneered.

At this time, Su Ming'an, who was still in the bushes, was looking at the wandering Ye Xing on his waist.

This [Night Walk] is passive and surprisingly powerful. He was actually not discovered by Lu's powerful-looking GPS prop.

"——Now that everyone is here, let's start quickly." Junko Iyuki, who was number 89 on the list, said in the open space.

She doesn't want to compete with the first player at all, she would rather maintain this lineup and start the dungeon quickly.

"Okay, then..." Lu stretched out his hand to the scarecrow next to him and touched the button to open the copy.
Chapter completed!
