Chapter 117 Reliable teammates (additional update)

In the waiting room.

The atmosphere between the two people who had had a fight was unexpectedly harmonious.

Simon: "Mask?"

Wei Miao: "Dance."

For the sake of caution, the two people who have made guesses will first discuss the "secret code".

When players meet alone, they can temporarily abandon their identity constraints, break away from immersive reality, and return to the "tourist" state.

There is no threat of life and death, and some players may be wedded to the differences they have made in the game, but Wei Miao values ​​​​interests more. In a dungeon with changing positions, there are no permanent enemies and friends.

On this point, the calm Ximen obviously reached a consensus with her, even though he suffered a small loss in the last battle.

Wei Miao spoke first: "What is your mission?"

Classic players must ask questions when meeting and must go through a trial period.

It's also a real problem in masquerade.

Players' nonsense is indistinguishable. How to determine the camp's position is an essential quality for dance players.

Simon was silent.

The two looked at each other.

Wei Miao suggested: "Let's do this. For the sake of fairness and credibility, both of us will write down our tasks on paper separately, and then show them together."

This sounds much more reliable. It can prevent one person from telling the mission, and the other person will have ulterior motives and follow suit, which helps to improve the credibility of the mission.

But it can also be played as a game of prediction and counter-prediction. The frustration of the masquerade lies in this, it is impossible to completely trust a person.

Ximen finally said: "Okay."

So, the two took paper and pen respectively and wrote down their tasks.

When sitting across from each other and writing, keep an eye on the other person with your peripheral vision to prevent the other party from making any small moves.

"I count 3, 2, 1 and show them all together."

Wei Miao turned the paper with the wrong side facing out, and when Ximen was ready, he recited the numbers.

"3...2...1!"

The two of them turned the paper over together.

"Slow down the process of world destruction." x2

Seeing the mission opposite, Wei Miao raised the corners of her mouth, and even Ximen, who had always kept a straight face, showed a relieved smile.

Interestingly, both of them wrote in native Esperanto and did not even want to reveal their actual nationalities.

Every simple task assignment is a careful mental calculation. Judging how likely it is that the opposite camp's task is similar to your own, or revealing it, distorting it, or telling half-truths and half-falsehoods are all considerations.

This time the two chose to tell the truth verbatim, based on their understanding of the characters played by both parties. At the same time, describing the task in as much detail as possible can effectively increase credibility. After all, the more details, the greater the chance of making a mistake.

The content written by the two people was accurate word for word, which directly boosted the credibility, and basic trust has been established.

For players at their level, this is the most difficult step.

"The most basic task problem has been successfully solved!" The joyful smile on Euphia's beautiful face broke the respectful and compassionate image of the nun, and her unique temperament flowed out, making her look particularly weird.

Ximen, on the other hand, had the same rigid expression as the marble sculpture as always. He said calmly: "I just returned to the imperial capital yesterday and learned about the changes between the two religions. Do you have any additional news?"

"The Firebringer's attack on me was secretly planned by Migle..." Wei Miao briefly explained the ins and outs of adding her own understanding.

Finally, she added: "Migler has news of salvation in his hands. He invites you and me to cooperate with him, and I have agreed."

"Okay." Ximen thought for a few seconds and then nodded.

Wei Miao: "It's better to choose a different day than to hit it. Let's go to visit him now? The location is his manor on the outskirts of the imperial capital."

"Can."

She found that Ximen really took his "taciturnity" to the extreme and communicated efficiently, which was in sharp contrast to the talkative Erha in the previous dungeon.

"Can you say one more word?"

"I can."

"...let's go."

Wei Miao put on the black robe covering the back of the chair.

The two of them left the small building one after the other and went their separate ways.

The fire bearer and the night watcher who were watching in the dark breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two walking out in harmony. At this point in time, if there was any conflict between the two, it would definitely affect the church behind them.

Ximen's popularity in the imperial capital was not comparable to that of Euphia, and his travel was handled by a dedicated person. The unknown nun had much more freedom. She could hail a rickshaw on the street and go anywhere.

Suburban manor.

A square courtyard is surrounded by black iron railings. Compared to Princess Keni's gorgeous gardening design, it is overgrown with grass.

When Wei Miao arrived, Ximen was already standing in front of the courtyard gate. He turned to her and said, "The door is unlocked."

Hearing this, her eyes swept across the manor. There were no guards and it looked deserted. There was only a single double-story building standing alone.

It's hard to imagine that this is the residence of a prince.

Wei Miao said: "On the way here, I listened to the coachman's chat. He said that the second prince's terrifying manor has been spread by word of mouth among the common people of the imperial capital and is famous. It is said that there is a man-eating monster hidden here."

Ximen, who was wearing black gloves, pushed it gently, and the iron door made an unpleasant creaking sound like a crow.

The two walked into the courtyard side by side, walking lightly and silently.

There are inconspicuous signs of turning over parts of the waste lawn, and the soil is loose.

The two people with keen senses could smell the faint special smell lingering in the air.

Wei Miao often smells this smell when going to cemeteries in reality.

It was the smell of putrid corpses. This was the first time she had come into contact with it so realistically in the game.

Due to regulations or review restrictions, normal virtual games drastically reduce the sensory experience of injury and death, making the moment of death very dramatic.

She raised a compassionate smile and made the church's rest ritual gesture: "May the deceased sleep in peace forever."

"The dead should return to the world in the purification of the divine flames." Ximen rarely responded.

They walked through the narrow path without changing their expressions and came to the white stone gate.

Ximen stepped forward and rang the doorbell.

After waiting for about a minute, nothing happened.

Wei Miao and Ximen looked at each other, and Ximen asked her what was going on with his expression.

Wei Miao guessed: "Not at home? It seems we came at the wrong time."

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the door behind him suddenly opened.

The two turned their heads and saw Migle standing at the door wearing a black tights and looking unshaven.

His hair was messy and curly, and he was wearing a pair of thin black special gloves on his hands. Wei Miao could tell at a glance that they were made of Yipeng's skin.

Migler, who was down and out but full of energy, smiled and said: "Sorry, I just couldn't leave because of a research project. Please come in."

Wei Miao smiled and said: "If you can focus on research, Your Highness will make you feel more reliable."

"The Son of the Divine Flame and Sister Yongye came to visit together. Even my royal brothers and sisters didn't receive this treatment. I was the one who neglected them." Migle maintained his demeanor and led them in.

He has a very faint smell of blood, and the nuns who have been fighting for years are very keen.

Wei Miao looked at his back thoughtfully.

As far as the methods seen so far are concerned, Migler is, as she said, a reliable researcher partner.

It seems like a long time has passed since the last update. This time it’s for Ling Feifei Helmsman!

It feels like I owe a debt with no deadline. There are many creditors now...
