"This is the first time I've heard that loading into a scenario can be 'delayed' …" Ruo Yu looked at Brother Jue and said.
"Haha … Let's not talk about it." Feng Bujue sounded like he was brushing them off, but what he really meant was, "It's not convenient to talk about this now."
The three from Underworld Frontline understood what he meant, so they did not say anything. As for the other two players …
"Wow! It's Mad God! It's him in real life! "Once Buu saw Brother Jue, he rushed forward like he was going to pounce on him.
Uub also rushed forward to stand before Feng Bujue. He widened his soulless eyes like he was looking at some kind of monster that could only be seen in movies.
"What are you doing?" Feng Bujue did not know how to react to this sudden situation. He reached out to stop the two and asked loudly, "What do you two want? Do you want to turn me into chocolate and eat me? "
"Hmm … No wonder he's Mad God. Even his impromptu criticism is so deep …" Buu looked at Brother Jue with admiration.
"Hmm … No wonder he's Mad God. Even entering the scenario slower than normal people …" Uub nodded in agreement.
"Why do I feel like these two points are nothing to brag about …" Xiao Ling narrowed her eyes and added.
"Oh …" Feng Bujue thought about it and quickly realized that these two players before him were his fans. He smiled and replied, "Guys, you can just call me Feng Bujue. The title 'Mad God' sounds so weird, like I'm some kind of crazy person who is doing some crazy dance."
"How can that be!" Buu replied seriously. "It's too rude to call Mad God by his name!"
"Hey, hey … That's just a nickname in the game, right? Furthermore, even if it's his real name, it shouldn't be a problem. Isn't a person's name meant to be called?" Feng Bujue mumbled.
However, Brother Jue did not show it on his face and came up with a compromise. "Hmm … How about this? You can call me Teacher Jue. How about that?"
"Alright!" "No wonder you are Teacher Jue … Even a simple title can be so profound …" Buu chimed in.
"No wonder he is Teacher Jue," Aub added. "Even the names that he comes up with are weirder than normal …"
"Ha … Haha …" Feng Bujue revealed an awkward smile as he thought to himself, So, these two are my random teammates … Should I be happy about this or feel a little bit of pain?
"Uh-huh." Then, Feng Bujue cleared his throat and steered the conversation back on track. "Then … May I ask, how is the progress of the script?"
"See for yourself," Ruo Yu tilted her head slightly and signaled her Brother Jue with her eyes.
Ruo Yu knew that Feng Bujue could observe the environment from the data level, so she was too lazy to say more. Of course, the others did not know that …
"Teacher Jue, there are two exits in this room …" Bujue ran to the wall excitedly and used his hands to point at the doors on both sides. "Both of them said, 'This door is locked.'"
"There is the smell of formalin coming from behind that door." Aub pointed at the door behind Xiao Tan and said quickly.
"Hey … I was the one who discovered it, wasn't I?" Xiao Tan pouted. He looked like his credit had been taken away by someone else.
"There is nothing under the table, I've checked it already," Xiao Ling added. "Before you showed up, I was planning to jump onto the roof to take a look."
"There is no need to go through so much trouble …" Feng Bujue said as he took several steps forward to the table. "Could it be …" He reached out to pick up the oil lamp on the table. "… here."
The next second, everyone's eyes focused on him and they saw … the key hidden under the lamp.
"That's right! How could I have missed that place? "Xiao Ling saw this and complained with annoyance.
"So, this is what they mean by 'darkness under the lamp' …" Feng Bujue shrugged. He picked up the key and looked at the item description.
[Name: Faded Copper Key]
Item Type: Consumable
Quality: Normal
Function: Open the door of a certain location
Can be taken out of the scenario: No
Remark: This key only corresponds to one door. It will not be used if it is inserted into the wrong keyhole.
Then, he raised the key to show the item description to his teammates.
"Hmm … So, that makes things easier." Two seconds later, Bujue said, "From the 'remark' of the key, we don't need to worry about using the key because we choose the wrong door, and we don't need to choose between two doors. After all, only when we find the 'corresponding' door will the key be useful. So … we can just put it on the door and try it. "
"Eh? You sure have a quick mind. "Feng Bujue looked at Bujue with praise.
"He … he he …" Bujue's chubby face had the expression of a primary school student when he was praised. He scratched his cheeks with his fingers and giggled. "Teacher Jue, you flatter me. After all, I am a man who aspires to be a famous detective."
"Yeah, Buu's reasoning ability is very powerful." Uub also nodded and said.
"Hmm … Now that you mention it …" Feng Bujue said slowly, "I just realized … you guys are a combination of a 'famous detective' and an 'old military doctor' …"
"Yes, just like Sherlock Holmes and Watson!" Buu's eyes lit up as he replied.
"Teacher Jue, you must think we are very chuunibyou, right?" Uub said darkly. "But that's okay … Only a dream that will be mocked out loud can be realized."
"Not at all … I think this kind of dream is quite normal. It is similar to my childhood dream …" Feng Bujue answered expressionlessly and glanced at Xiao Tan.
Xiao Tan smiled at him awkwardly.
"Pfft …" Xiao Ling could not hold it in anymore. She covered her mouth and giggled.
Ruo Yu looked at Brother Bujue and Xiao Tan with a helpless expression and sighed deeply.
"Oh! Is that so? No wonder you are Teacher Jue … Even your childhood dream is so deep … "Bujue's admiration rose again.
Uub's soulless eyes were also shining. "No wonder you are Teacher Jue … Even your life goal is higher than normal people …"
"Ha … Haha … Let's try the key first …" To prevent these two from continuing their praises, Feng Bujue quickly laughed drily. He took the key and walked to the door behind Xiao Tan. "Let's try this one first. The smell behind this door is quite suspicious."
As he spoke, Brother Bujue reached the door. He reached the key into the keyhole, but after a few tries, he realized that he could not get it in.
"Isn't it this door?" Feng Bujue mumbled as he walked to another door. "Then, this should be it …"
This conclusion was reasonable because there were only two doors in this room. The key should be able to open at least one of them.
But … the reality was …
"Huh?" Feng Bujue stood before the door that did not smell, and his expression changed. "Not this one either …"
"What's going on?" Xiao Tan asked. "Brother Bujue, did you put it in the wrong way?"
"How is that possible … Of course, I tried both the front and the back." Feng Bujue replied. "Looks like this key …" He lowered his head to look at the key in his hand. "… corresponds to a door somewhere else and not the two doors before us."
"Huh?" Buu was confused. "The problem is … if we don't open these two doors, we won't be able to go to 'somewhere else'."
Uub added, "Then … aren't we overcomplicating the problem?" He paused. "The floor, walls, and roof of this room are all made of wood. We're all level forty, so we can break through the walls with a simple skill. Why would we need a key?"
"No, that won't work." Feng Bujue immediately denied Uub's theory. Then he turned to tell Xiao Ling, "Laughing Soul (When there were outsiders around, Brother Jue would usually refer to his teammates by their game IDs, except for Xiao Tan), give me a normal quality pistol."
Before he could finish his sentence, Xiao Ling casually took out a Glock 17 from her bag and tossed it over.
Brother Jue took the pistol, and without saying anything, he opened the safety and fired at the door.
Bang!
When the gunshot rang out, the bullet had already hit the target and … bounced back.
A layer of transparent ripples appeared on the surface of the door. Then the bullet was bounced back by an invisible force and hit … Uub.
After Uub was shot, he did not react much. He lowered his head and silently looked at the wound on his thigh.
Buu said with some thought, "Hmm … Using brute force to open the door is not going to work …"
"That's right." Feng Bujue tossed the gun back to Xiao Ling and said nonchalantly, "This is not some newbie scenario but a team scenario for six high-level players to team up to clear … Why would the system allow something like this to happen?"
"Er … I say … Brother Jue …" Xiao Tan finally could not hold it in anymore. "You are too calm … You shot him, and he is bleeding!"
"I did not do it on purpose." Feng Bujue shrugged. "Actually, I cannot do this' on purpose 'because we are teammates. If I have any intention to harm him, the system will definitely stop me." He pointed at the door. "In any case … based on our experience, we can come to a conclusion — using brute force to break into this room is not going to work. The attack will be randomly bounced back, and it will harm the six of us."
"No wonder you are Teacher Jue … To be able to analyze such a simple phenomenon so deeply …" The admiration in Buu's eyes deepened.
"You have a point …" Uub, who was shot, agreed. "No wonder you are Teacher Jue … You are more direct than normal when you are explaining your point of view …"
The shocking thing was … as Uub spoke, he used two fingers to 'catch' the bullet that was shot into his thigh. Throughout the whole process, his expression did not change much. He was still in his malnourished state, and there was no trace of pain on his face.
"Hey, this hero … You are using the legendary Russian method of bullet extraction, right?" Seeing this, Xiao Tan, who was a doctor, could not help but grumble.
"Haha … I'm sorry." Uub smiled proudly. "I used the ability of my title, Magnetic Finger," he explained. "I can use a very low expenditure to make my finger continuously release a certain amount of magnetic force. Therefore … when I extract things like bullets or shrapnel, I do not need to use tools and do not need to expand the wound. I only need to use a suitable amount of 'force' to suck the thing out. " He raised the bloody bullet and added, "I am quite lucky. The surface of this bullet is plated with nickel. If it was a pure brass shell, then I would not be able to 'suck' it out."
Then, Uub used his hand to touch his wound. The next second, there was a flash of white light, which was obviously a Medic skill, and the blood on his thigh stopped. "By the way, my Medic and Workmanship mastery are both level B, so I guess you can say that I live up to the title of 'Veteran Medic'."
"Very good, very good." Feng Bujue praised him with an admiring gaze.
In his heart, he thought, "Excellent! Even though these two look quite amusing, they are not bad at all. The fat one … has excellent puzzle solving and analytical skills; the thin one is the most sought after Medic players in the game. Furthermore, they admire me so much, which means that they are both young men with aspirations and ideals. Hmm … I should add them as friends after we clear the scenario.
"Can you temporarily put aside the despicable narcissism in your mind …" Suddenly, Ruo Yu turned to Brother Jue and said coldly, "Focus back on the scenario before you."
"Hey … how did you know that? You can read my mind! "Feng Bujue was genuinely shocked.
"Looking at your eyes, I know what you are thinking …" Ruo Yu mimicked Brother Jue. She scratched her chin and chuckled coldly. "… 'Hmph, these two are valuable. Since they are my fans, they must be very conscious men' … something like that."
"F * ck …" Feng Bujue uttered a sentence that should have been blocked by the system but was not. At this moment, this was the only word that could accurately express his feelings.
"Ha! I got it! " Just as they were talking, Xiao Ling, who had been silent for a long time, came up with an idea. She immediately walked to the oil lamp on the table and said, "Everyone, be careful, I am going to turn off the light."
She did not care whether the others were ready or not. After she greeted them, she turned off the oil lamp.
A mere second later, everyone was plunged into a pitch-black darkness.
"Hmph … as expected." A few seconds later, Xiao Ling's voice was heard again. "Look … there are words on the door."
Due to the pitch-black surroundings, the others didn't know where to look. However, after they tried to recall where they were standing, they found the thing that Xiao Ling was pointing at.
Not long after, a few words that glowed faintly in green entered their sight.
