"Meow!"
The meow of a cat came from the kitchen.
"What's wrong, Yaoyao?"
Feng Yalong tossed the controller aside and ran to the kitchen. He saw Pu Yaoyao holding her stomach and squatting on the floor.
"She's here. She's really here. She's finally here."
Pu Yaoyao raised her head. Her entire face had turned into a cat's face. The cat demon blood in her body had been stimulated. This was a passive stimulation because of the cat-faced old woman's arrival.
Wang Yuezhang put down the binoculars with a serious expression. "It's really her, the cat-faced old woman."
"Doesn't she look like a host who comes out to announce the start of a major plot?" At this time, Su Bai even teased her with interest. In truth, for Su Bai, who wanted to seek fresh blood and excitement in the story world, his life had indeed been a little too dull.
"You don't say, it really does look like it." Wang Yuezhang smiled and then took a deep breath. "What do you think the horror broadcast will do this time?"
"It should be through side quests or main quests that we automatically split into groups to compete and clash with each other. This will maximize the beauty that the horror broadcast aims to achieve."
At this time, Feng Yalong and Pu Yaoyao also walked to the balcony. Pu Yaoyao still had her cat-faced face, and she could not suppress the demonic aura on her body for a while.
The cat-faced old woman stood where she was and only smiled at them. She did not move at all, as if she had been petrified.
In fact, when Su Bai picked up the binoculars to look again, he found that the cat-faced old woman had really been petrified. In that place, what stood was no longer a living creature, but a stone statue. It was a stone statue of an old woman pushing a pram. The lines of the cat face on the old woman's face were very clear.
The four people here knew that this was the real prologue to the story world this time. After all the trouble and painstaking effort, the horror broadcast had taken such a long time. It was like a chef who was going to cook a main dish. He had spent a lot of effort to prepare a lot of good ingredients, and now, it was time to heat up the pan.
[Side Quest 1: Occupy the cat-faced old woman's stone statue for one hour between 12 p.m. and 6 a.m.
PS1: Time before 12 a.m. to after 6 a.m. will not be counted in the effective time.
PS2: Area of effect is a radius of 100 meters with the stone statue as the center.
PS3: The effect is limited to 5 people at a time. When more than 5 people are within a 100-meter radius of the stone sculpture, the 1-hour occupation time will be suspended. When the number of listeners within the range is equal to or less than 5, the effective time will be calculated again. When the effective time reaches 1 hour, the side mission will be considered completed.
Reward: Listeners who occupy the target's effective time for one hour will be rewarded with 200 story points.]
The voice of the horror broadcast rang in the minds of all the listeners. The first batch of listeners who had survived had been waiting for three months. Now, the horror broadcast had finally arrived.
Su Bai gently rubbed his fingers on the balcony railing. He did not speak, nor did he need to. As soon as side mission 1 came out, it almost proved the conjecture he had made during his discussion with Wang Yuezhang.
The theme of the story world this time was a team battle!
According to the description of the first side quest, one would only need to occupy the cat-faced old woman's stone statue for one hour to complete the mission. However, the other listeners were not dead. The horror broadcast did not say that this would continue tomorrow, and no one would take it for granted that there would be more tomorrow. Those who could not make it in time would continue to come.
Splitting the profits was not the theme of the horror broadcast.
According to the rules of the mission, there were six hours from midnight to six in the morning. According to the highest mission completion efficiency, five listeners could complete the mission in one hour. Six hours would be thirty listeners. In fact, it was impossible for the number to reach thirty, because it was impossible for every handover to be done without delay. There would definitely be time wasted. Therefore, the number of listeners who could complete the mission would definitely be less than thirty. Moreover, who would go first and who would go last? How could it be so peaceful in a situation where there were too many monks and not enough gruel?
When the time came, there would definitely be bloody conflicts and violent confrontations. It was a must, and the number of people who could complete the mission would be even fewer.
Su Bai had joined the team later, and recently, everyone had tactfully treated Pu Yaoyao, who had the blood of a cat demon, as the team leader. Now that they had encountered such a situation, Pu Yaoyao naturally had to speak first. Of course, whether it was Su Bai, Wang Yuezhang, or Feng Yalong, none of them would say that they would follow Pu Yaoyao's orders. Everyone had their own plans and opinions. If Pu Yaoyao's thoughts went against everyone else's, then the team would quickly fall apart.
This was the difficulty of being the team leader, and also the difficulty of being the team leader.
"The advantage we have now is that the cat-faced old lady's sculpture is so close to us, but there's still nearly five or six hours before midnight. The other listeners will definitely be able to find us. Our advantage of distance is almost negligible in the face of time. However, the only remaining advantage we have is that we can wait and see. We can observe and wait to see how strong the groups of listeners who arrive before midnight are. If they're similar to Ah Bai's previous team, then there's no need to mention that they won't be much of a threat to us.
"Of course, this is just our best hope. Our strength is definitely not at the bottom, but we don't know if we are at the top, or if there are listeners who are at a higher level than us who have also been sent to this world by the horror broadcast.
"However, if we don't take the meat that is delivered to our doorstep, we will be doing ourselves a disservice. If we are too cowardly in this world, we will die sooner or later. The four of us will first use this house as the center and try to disperse as much as possible. Keep in touch. We have to figure out the strength of every group that approaches this place.
"If there are no teams with strength that can really shock us, we will be the first to eat crabs. When the time comes, the specific methods and tactics for occupying spots, as well as the bargaining chips and empty spots that our team can absorb, will be discussed in the one to two hours before midnight.
"After all, once we occupy a spot, we will have to face the spying and anger of the other groups around us. Killing the chicken to warn the monkey is definitely necessary to show our determination and strength."
Su Bai was a little surprised. Pu Yaoyao's words were watertight and very organized. It had nothing to do with cowardice or righteousness. This Catwoman really had some skills.
"Okay, I accept," Wang Yuezhang said.
"I accept too," Feng Yalong also said.
"No problem." Su Bai nodded.
This was the most basic procedure for a team. Of course, there were exceptions. The biggest exception was when the team leader's strength exceeded the rest of the team by too much. In such a situation, the team leader's words were usually the law. Of course, there was also a paradox. If the team leader's strength exceeded the rest of the team by too much, then what was the point of the team's existence?
Su Bai took a bottle of mineral water and went downstairs. His position was on the west side, which was an even more remote suburb. Unless the audience deliberately took a detour, Su Bai's side should be fine. Pu Yaoyao seemed to have noticed that Su Bai did not like to meddle, so she purposely sent Su Bai to that side.
The east side was the subway station and the highway, while the south side was another highway. Wang Yuezhang, Feng Yalong, and Pu Yaoyao were in charge of monitoring.
Su Bai leaned against a half-built slope green belt and looked ahead. There was a river and an unobstructed demolition site, so there was no place to hide his vision.
This job was really easy.
He twisted the cap and drank a mouthful of water. It was evening, and the temperature was very pleasant. If not for this responsibility, Su Bai really wanted to close his eyes and take a nap to prepare for tonight's matter.
About two hours later, Feng Yalong, Wang Yuezhang, and Pu Yaoyao's side kept coming in through the group chat. After another hour, it was almost ten o 'clock at night. The number of teams that came here had already exceeded ten.
There was still no one on Su Bai's side, but when he thought about snatching food from the tiger's mouth in the latter half of the night, Su Bai really felt a little excited.
"Alright, it's almost time. Let's go back to the original house and do a further summary. Then we'll decide on the action plan for the latter half of the night," Pu Yaoyao said in the group chat.
Su Bai also got up and prepared to go back. He was the most comfortable one. It was as if he had rested here for a few hours. However, when Su Bai turned around and was about to go back, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Pu!"
A hand suddenly reached out from the rubble under his feet. It was holding a sharp dagger, and it directly cut into Su Bai's ankle. Su Bai let out a muffled groan and knelt down. The other hand reached out and directly grabbed Su Bai's neck. At the same time, the dagger cut into Su Bai's neck. Blood gushed out, and he let out a cry of disbelief. Then, he lay on the ground motionlessly.
Very soon, a woman in yellow sportswear crawled out from the muddy ruins. She looked at Su Bai who was lying on the ground with a hint of disdain in her eyes. A listener that was so easily killed by her was definitely not someone worth mentioning. She didn't even have the interest to search the corpse. Thinking that such a low-level listener wouldn't have anything on him that she would be interested in, she immediately kicked Su Bai's corpse into a ditch on the side. The corpse rolled down and was covered by a pile of debris.
The woman opened her mouth and let out a bird-like cry. Then, from the ruins in the distance, a few figures appeared and slowly walked over.
