Chapter 3

When the player got up, almost everyone stopped and looked at him.

Everyone is very curious, if he is leaving now, whether he has completed the half-hour reading task. Since this person has a watch, the time should be very accurate, but no one knows whether the NPC said the truth before.

It stands to reason that NPCs generally do not lie in the rules.

Soon, the man came to the tour guide. The tour guide gave him a disinterested look, then took a ticket from his personal bag and handed it to him.

"Okay, your experience today has reached the standard. This is a meal ticket. Let's go eat."

When Ye Xu heard the words, he paused slightly, and he understood.

As long as the standard is met, the NPC will take the initiative to give the meal ticket without them having to ask for it. So to judge whether it meets the standard, just look at whether the NPC gives a meal ticket or not. Even if you don't have a hand to keep track of, it doesn't matter, there will be no situation where the time has not come and there is no prompt.

Ye Xu was relieved, in this case, the difficulty of this game was invisibly reduced a lot. Players will not

And out, as long as you deal with all kinds of experience activities on the line.

After thinking about it, Ye Xu lowered his head and read the book seriously. In order to eat early, he didn't plan to make any trouble.

However, the others started to get up one after another to ask the tour guide for meal tickets. They all came in in the same group, unlike Ye Xu who left once in the middle, so the reading time was similar. Since some people have reached the standard, others should also reach the standard.

However, the fact surprised everyone.

Some people successfully got their meal tickets and left, but the vast majority of players were unable to get meal tickets due to lack of time. The tour guide was too lazy to take care of others, no matter how the players protested, he just wouldn't let go.

Ye Xu looked at them from a distance and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Someone doesn't have enough time? Why? Because you spend a lot of time looking around? Or does it not count because you don't pay enough attention when reading the book?

But looking around, it's good to say that this can be seen with the naked eye. But if you don't read carefully, it's hard to tell the difference. Why do tour guides judge that they are not focused enough on reading?

"Why didn't you give us a meal ticket? We watched it for half an hour!" A newcomer couldn't help protesting, but because of the previous incident of the big man being thrown off the boat, he didn't dare to make too much trouble and could only complain Two sentences, "It's fine if you don't give me a meal ticket, I'll buy the meal myself."

Before he came, he accidentally found that there were five hundred yuan in his room, enough for his food for a day.

After listening to the tour guide, he sneered: "The restaurant on the cruise ship does not charge, only the ticket. Without a meal ticket, no one wants to eat."

The newcomer didn't believe it at all, so he turned his head and left.

But he was gone, and the others were not. Especially some senior people, almost immediately realized the importance of meal tickets, they returned to their seats without saying a word, and began to read books.

Since the NPC said that you can't eat without a meal ticket, then you definitely won't be able to eat. Now even if I go back and get money to buy food, I'm just humiliating myself. I might as well take advantage of this time to watch it for a while, and make it up for half an hour.

Some of the remaining newcomers followed suit and came back to read, but there were always a few daring ones who tried to make trouble. Ye Xu kept staring at the movement here, and immediately noticed something was wrong.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and before he could remind the noisy newcomers to be careful, he saw a few square bricks slammed down. The square brick smashed his head to the ground for several days, and fell to the ground at that time, and there was no movement.

It was only then that Ye Xu realized that the top of their heads was not the common painted wall, but a smooth surface paved with thick square bricks, which seemed to have the illusion of a tile floor.

The scene was very bloody, and everyone who heard the movement was taken aback, and a few cowardly exclaimed. Ye Xu knew it was going to be bad when he heard those screams, but as expected, there were several "slap" sounds one after another, and the newcomer who had just screamed was also smashed.

No loud noises are allowed in the library. And this noise should be based on a certain decibel line. It's just that the player doesn't know, so he can only try to keep his voice down.

Seven people died in one fell swoop, which made the newcomer, who was still lucky before, immediately realize that this is indeed not a normal world. On this cruise ship, supernatural forces absolutely exist.

The tour guide was still sitting there leisurely and playing with his mobile phone, he didn't care that his clothes were stained with blood, and he didn't pay any attention to the few stunned newcomers left. She didn't even bother to remind the newcomer to go back and read the book, and seemed to have no interest in whether the player could complete the task.

Ye Xu let out a long breath, lowered his head and stared at the book, but couldn't read a single word.

He always felt something was wrong.

He is now full of the strange behavior of the previous tour guide. How does she judge whether a player has read enough books for half an hour? Certainly not just by reading the book seriously or not, there should be other reasons.

Newcomers may not read books seriously, but seniors basically don't make this mistake. Not to mention looking around, it is estimated that the contents of the book have been carefully read word by word. So if you see flowers according to this standard, those seniors who ask the tour guide for meal tickets should also get meal tickets.

But no.

So there are still other criteria to consider...

Ye Xu felt that he should try it out.

He looked at his watch, fifteen minutes had passed since he sat down to read. In these fifteen minutes, he spent most of the time watching the farce, thinking about the situation, and after another fifteen minutes, he would go to the tour guide to try to see if she would give him a meal ticket.

If she gave it, then one of Ye Xu's guesses could be verified.

Ye Xu casually flipped through the travel journal, admiring the illustrations in it, and before he knew it, fifteen minutes passed. During this period, he glanced at the time from time to time while reading a book. When half an hour came, he immediately got up and asked the tour guide for a ticket.

Others looked at him vaguely, because of the previous events, everyone decided to watch as much as possible, lest the tour guide refuse to give the ticket. So since the last farce, no one has tried to ask for a ticket for so long, and now Ye Xu's action immediately became the focus of everyone.

The tour guide noticed him coming, reluctantly looked away from the phone, glanced at Ye Xu, said nothing, and gave Ye Xu a ticket. Ye Xu narrowed his eyes, reached out to take the ticket, and left without hesitation.

He was about to starve to death!

As soon as he left the range of the library, Ye Xu quickened his pace and ran to the restaurant, not wanting to stop for a second. Three minutes later, Ye Xu finally had his late breakfast.

After randomly stuffing a bowl of seafood cold noodles, Ye Xu slowed down. At this moment, he doesn't care whether eating seafood cold noodles on an empty stomach in the early morning will cause diarrhea. The only thing he can quickly enter and fill his stomach as soon as he enters the door is this cold noodles.

After eating a bowl of noodles, he finally had the strength to pick up some favorite things and start enjoying them slowly. He chose a seat by the window, while eating and enjoying the sea view, thinking about the doubts just now.

Ye Xu felt that he had probably found the crux of the matter.

The reason why the tour guide said that some people did not have enough time was actually because of the watch.

It's not that those people didn't watch enough time. After all, even Ye Xu, who spent a lot of time distracted and watching the play, got the ticket, and there was no reason why others couldn't get it. Ye Xu had previously observed that those who got meal tickets had a not-so-remarkable feature: they all wore watches.

It's not that there is any difference in the flow rate between people who wear a watch and those who don't wear a watch. The inside story says that players who are still hungry in the library will vomit blood in anger.

- People who don't wear watches are so foolish.

You don't wear a watch, and there's no clock in the library, how can you prove that you've seen enough for half an hour? Without proof, then the tour guide says you don't have enough time, you just don't have enough unless you can prove it.

But if you don't have a watch, you can't prove it. Even if you say that you came in with other people, and everyone went out with a ticket, it's useless. This is not solid evidence. The tour guide holds your lifeline, she says what she says.

Ye Xu believed that this inside story should also be seen by other senior people, but he has been waiting for others to confirm, and they will immediately go back to the house to get the watch. But newcomers don't necessarily realize this.

But even if there is no watch, the tour guide probably won't stick them for too long. Ye Xu guessed that it would only take two hours at most, and the tour guide would let them go, and it was impossible for them to wait indefinitely.

This is the first day, and it will not be so frustrating that 80% of the players will be eliminated.

Ye Xu finished his meal slowly, carefully collected the meal ticket, and then left the restaurant. This meal ticket is related to the food behind him. Both lunch and dinner are counted on it, but it cannot be lost.

After dinner, he plans to wander around the cruise ship and check out all the places. At present, it seems that after completing the task, there is basically no danger. Taking advantage of the safety period, he quickly finds out the terrain of the cruise ship. If there are escape activities later, he will not find where to escape.

Ye Xu first checked the current floor. In addition to the cafeteria and library, there are a large number of tourist bedrooms and a "garden open space" on this floor. No other entertainment items, should be on other layers.

When passing by the library, Ye Xu took a look and found that the bricks and the player's corpse that had been dropped before were still there, bloody there. It is estimated that the corpse will not be "refreshed" before 24 o'clock.

Ye Xu glanced sympathetically at the players who were still reading books inside, but he didn't go in to remind him.The bad guy in the escape game will die very quickly, and he doesn't have the ability to lead everyone to survive, so it's better to stay out of the limelight.

Just like when he came, Ye Xu quietly left, and he would continue to explore other places.
