chapter 2

"Dear tourists, this cruise has a total of ten days. In the ten days, I will lead you to experience a project on the cruise every day." Without the interference of newcomers, the tour guide quickly began to explain the rules after talking nonsense, " These entertainment projects are very interesting, I believe everyone will like it.”

"Every experience project requires everyone to experience at least half an hour. After all, if it is less than half an hour, everyone will not be able to appreciate the fun of the game, right?"

"After completing the daily tasks, everyone can move freely. Other projects can also be played at will, just be careful, each project has requirements, don't experience it randomly."

The tour guide finally added a tone like cuteness, but unfortunately everyone was not cute. Fortunately, the tour guide didn't care, and she added the last sentence.

"Okay, everyone come with me now, we're going to the first project." Speaking of which, she waved the little flag and headed to the stairs, "The one hundred and forty-nine tourists behind you should follow, Don't be left behind."

All had not eaten breakfast, and followed the guide hungry to the first entertainment facility. She didn't explain what the first item was in advance, but on the way to the destination, everyone passed a cafeteria, and the smell of the food inside wafted out, causing everyone's stomach to growl.

Ye Xu just glanced at the restaurant casually, and after taking note of the location, he turned his head back. I am destined to not be able to eat breakfast first. It is useless to watch more, and it will become more and more hungry. It is better not to watch.

I just don't know if the restaurant here charges or not, and don't know if the players have money in the game settings.

However, it shouldn't be so crazy that it starves everyone to death, right?

"Okay, we're here." The tour guide stopped suddenly, and in front of her was the door of the library.

The cruise ship is equipped with a library, which is quite rich in books. It seems that the first project is to read in the library for 30 minutes. This task is very simple and should be the least difficult one.

It was the first day after all, and there were so many newcomers. However, it cannot be completely without danger.

Ye Xu guessed that these experience games should have two dangers.

First, at the point of half an hour, the tour guide said to experience it for half an hour, otherwise the consequences will be at your own risk. And this half-hour period is very loose.

First of all, it can be accumulated for half an hour, without one-time use; secondly, it is not said how long it will take to make up half an hour. According to one item a day, it should be enough to make up half an hour within today, and reset it at 24:00 the next day.

Second, since the tour guide allows players to experience for half an hour, this half hour should be relatively difficult. Otherwise, there will be no situation where the gathering is not enough for half an hour, and naturally no one will be eliminated.

There will be dangers in the activity experience, but it is hard to say whether this danger is triggered passively or actively.

Ye Xu prefers to have both. A few days ago, it may be passively triggered, so it is less difficult. As long as the player does not step on the lightning point, he will not encounter danger. The next few days are different, the difficulty is getting bigger and bigger, the ghost will take the initiative to find the player, can you survive to see your luck and strength.

So, what are the dangers of reading books in the library? The bookshelf collapsed and was crushed to death?

Hard to say.

More importantly, what kind of behavior passively triggers the danger. Combined with some of the library's regulations, Ye Xu had a general idea - nothing more than smoking, making noise, destroying or losing books.

These are relatively simple to observe, but Ye Xu stood outside the door and glanced in, not seeing any clocks in the library. In this case, Ye Xu didn't know if he had been reading for more than half an hour, which was a bit tricky.

Instead, you can watch other people. When they leave, they leave with you. But there is no guarantee that the other is just seeing the point, rather than planning to go back and make it up again.

Ye Xu pondered, why don't you go back to the house to find the watch first? don't know if tell the NPC if will let him go. If he doesn't give it, then he can only go back halfway to get it.

The ghost knows if there is any hidden rule in this experience game that "you can't leave the table for the first ten minutes of the reading activity". If there is, is it bad luck for him to leave?

When everyone entered the library, Ye Xu came to the tour guide in front of the door: "Excuse me, can I go back to the house to get one thing first, and then come to read the book?"

"What are you going back to get?" The tour guide looked at him with a terrifying look.

Ye Xu wasn't frightened, he wasn't a new kid, he had seen too many terrifying NPCs, but he couldn't frighten him to that extent.

He pointed to his wrist: "I left my favorite watch in the house when I went out. I want to go back and get it."

The tour guide looked at him meaningfully, and nodded after a while: "Yes, as long as the experience is half an hour within today, you can start at any time."

In other words, it didn't matter whether Ye Xu went in to read now or read it later in the afternoon. He just wanted to watch it at night, no problem.

Ye Xu heaved a sigh of relief, bid farewell to the tour guide politely, and hurried back to the house.

Fortunately, he remembered to bring his room card before going out, otherwise he might not even be able to enter the house now. have to find a tour guide and see if can contact a staff member to open the door with a spare room card.

Since the tour guide said that he was not in a hurry, Ye Xu didn't rush back to read the book after finding the watch. He took advantage of this time to look around the house, the most important thing is to see if there is any bank-card and cash, which are related to whether he can eat or not.

He didn't eat breakfast, and the feeling of hunger made him very uncomfortable. This torture is many times more exaggerated than the usual hunger, which is obviously not normal.

Ye Xu had a bad feeling.

Hunger, in this game, is probably also an important element.

Fortunately, he quickly dug out five hundred-yuan bills from the bedside table. It's not much, but it's better than nothing.

Thinking of the price level on luxury cruise ships, Ye Xu doubted that so much money would not be enough for him to eat thirty meals at the restaurant. Even if you don't eat breakfast, you will have 20 meals in 10 days, with an average of 25 yuan per meal.

...This is the consumption level of roadside noodle restaurants, right?

What is even more frightening is that no one knows whether there is any need to spend money in the later experience game.

Ye Xu rummaged again and found a brochure introducing cruise ships with all the cruise ship items on it. Fortunately, there is no casino inside, which is a big money-sucking pit.

However, although there is no casino, there are duty-free shops, so you might have to go in to buy things.

Ye Xu put down the booklet and frowned.

For now, leave that alone and take the money for breakfast. Ye Xu felt that his stomach was protesting, and if he didn't eat anything, he might have a stomachache.

Ye Xu put away the only five hundred yuan and went to the third floor where the library and restaurant were located with his watch on.

There is more than one restaurant on the cruise ship, so he should have picked the cheapest one. But he really didn't have the energy to climb up and down to compare prices at the moment, so he could only pick one he was familiar with.

There were not many people in the cafeteria at the moment, it was past the meal time, and most of the tourists went to play in different places. After Ye Xu went in, he went straight to the waiter and asked about the restaurant's meal price.

If it wasn't particularly expensive, he would have eaten here with gritted teeth.

Unexpectedly, the waiter of the restaurant told him apologetically: "The restaurant on our cruise ship is free of charge, but you have to enter with a ticket. Tourists without tickets cannot dine in the restaurant."

Ye Xu: "..."

So he has to go back and get tickets, right?

Ye Xu felt that he was going to starve and paralyzed, and he didn't have the strength to look for a meal ticket.

His silence seemed to misunderstand the NPC, who added: "It's normal that you didn't find the ticket in the suite. The ticket is in the hands of the tour guide, and you need to ask her for it."

This sentence immediately awakened Ye Xu, and he finally figured it out.

No wonder he was so hungry, and the tour guide emphasized that they had to experience it for half an hour. I'm afraid this hunger is a punishment. Only after the experience can you get a meal ticket to eat, otherwise you can only be hungry.

In this case, there is probably no place to sell snacks on the cruise ship, and players can't buy biscuits and bread to satisfy their hunger.

According to the increase rate of this hunger degree, if you fail to experience success at 24 points, it may really starve the player to death.

This is really inhumane, and Ye Xu's mood is very complicated. He said goodbye to the NPC in a hurry, and decided to go back to read a book and have a good meal.

Ye Xu's arrival did not attract the slightest attention of the tour guide. The other party had already found a seat near the door and sat down, and then...played on his mobile phone on his own.

Ye Xu glanced at her enviously. He hadn't played with his mobile phone for a long time. The previous worlds were busy fleeing, and he didn't have time or mood to play at all. Even, some worlds do not provide players with mobile phones at all.

But then again, NPCs do play a bit on their mobile phones. Generally, NPCs are ghosts. Will ghosts get addicted to playing mobile phones?

Ye Xu was full of wild ideas, but he didn't dare to lean over to see what the tour guide was doing with his mobile phone. He went straight to the bookshelf, took this travelogue casually, found a place to sit down and read it.

Hunger made him unwilling to read at all, but he didn't dare to be lazy, so he could only force himself to read. He memorized the time on his watch firmly, and planned to rush to collect the meal ticket as soon as it was o'clock.

He knows now that he can get a meal ticket when the experience time is enough. In this way, he is not afraid that he is not aware of the fact that he has not reached the standard in time, and he will end up being killed.

Therefore, even if there is no watch, it is not a big problem, as long as you ask the tour guide for a meal ticket every once in a while and see if she gives it.

Ye Xu, who thought he had read through all the rules, breathed a sigh of relief, tried his best to imply that he ignored his stomach's protest, and read the book seriously. Occasionally lift your head and relax your eyes and neck, while observing other players.

He found that there were quite a few players who were just as hungry as him. Some of them were staring at the book irritably with red eyes, and it was estimated that they couldn't read a single word.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that a player finally finished the experience and got up and walked towards the tour guide.

Ye Xu observed that he was wearing a watch on his wrist.
