Chapter 21: Ghost Hotel

Lin Yining has not played many games, but he realized that he should have encountered some task.
The dwarf old man went on to say: "Go to the heart of stone first."
"What is the Heart of Stone?" Lin Yining hesitated and asked, "Where can I find it?"
"It's just...a kind of material. You asked me where to look?" The dwarf stared wide-eyed and exhaled angrily: "Where do I know where to look, you can find it yourself."
Not to mention, the business was not done, and Lin Yining was pushed out directly, closing the door of the shop.
Lin Yining stood at the door, helpless.
Now the bow is not in his hand and he has no weapons. He can't even upgrade the mission. He has to wait at least three days before he gets the bow and arrow. Taking advantage of this time, Lin Yining intends to find out what this heart of stone is.
He found a seat in a nearby small shop and sat down, opened the trading area in the app, searched for Shi Zhixin, and found no results. Instead, he found a lot of self-recommended posts by intermediaries. You can find everything you know, and the network is wide.
Unexpectedly, it was only at this moment in the game world that even intermediaries appeared. Inside, Lin Yining also saw an acquaintance, the one who just sold his hood at the gate of the city.
Since he was not someone who would particularly compare the goods, looking at these intermediaries was almost the same, Lin Yining simply stopped thinking about it and directly contacted the young man who sold him in the morning. This man's name is Meng Han, and the documents taken by the end-of-the-world official still look pretty beautiful.
In the eschatological world, players use the mail function in the app to communicate with each other. Originally, Lin Yining didn't think the other party would see it soon, and it took less than a minute for a reply to come from there. Lin Yining told him the address of the drink shop he was in. He waited quietly, and after a while, Meng Han came.
"Just right here, I came when I received the news." Meng Han's dress was a little cleaner than before, with a proper smile on his face, and asked, "Is there anything I need to help?"
Thanks to his level of blessing, Lin Yining now enjoys a little preferential treatment on Meng Han's side. As a fledgling intermediary businessman, Meng Han is eager to Lin Yining.
Lin Yining said: "I want to inquire something, do you know where there is a heart of stone?"
Meng Han thought for a while and smiled: "That's just a coincidence, I just know." He opened his app and took out a book from it, with a list of world missions and rewards written on the title. I searched the catalog and found it soon.
"This is a reward for an eight-level mission, located in Qingxiang."
Qingxiang is also a free city. Unlike Jingcheng, which is a second-tier city, Qingxiang is a little-known city, not far from Shuangyucheng.
Lin Yining asked him for detailed information about the task, and was watching it carefully. Hearing Meng Han asking him, "Can I ask? How did you wake up your bloodline?"
Lin Yining looked up at him.
The newly bought cloak can hide people's faces and make people unclear. But Meng Han clearly felt that under the cloak, Lin Yining was staring at him.
"I... I'll ask." He laughed and said, "If it's inconvenient to say it, I'm sorry."
"It's nothing." Lin Yining lowered his head and continued to look at the information: "When he met a monster, he awakened at the juncture of life and death."
"Oh oh." Meng Han hurriedly complimented him: "I heard that you are awakening your blood like this, it is better than the npc over there."
Lin Yining asked: "Isn't it enough to just do the task when the level is up?"
"No." Meng Han explained: "First of all, you have to measure the blood of this race to be awakened. Generally, you are awakening to the task point of each race, and there is something like this to you. After awakening, the task is the real thing. Members of this race."
"Well." Lin Yining replied, recalling, who was the one who had stamped his elven blood? It seems... clown.
After spending so long in the game, the tragedy in the subway station has slowly blurred.
Looking at the data here, Meng Han was waiting. After a while, I heard Meng Han say, "I still have a customer here, and I plan to go there to brush things up, and want to form a high-level one. They want another thing, there is no conflict with you, you want go?"
Lin Yining put down the information and said, "Okay."
.
In the afternoon, still in this drink shop, under the recommendation of Meng Han, Lin Yining saw several people who were going to do tasks together.
The other four portraits are familiar with each other, a ninth-level ghost, a seventh-level human warrior, and an invisible orc with an unawakened ordinary human being. Surprisingly, among these people, the caller is like an ordinary human being. He stood up and shook hands with Lin Yining.
"My name is Fan Zike." The man, Fan Zike said.
Lin Yining greeted the four people and asked: "Why do you want to find someone to form a team through an intermediary, not afraid of insecurity?"
Fan Zike explained: "The task requires five people to work together, I will find it. Because the time is more urgent. If you are afraid of insecurity, we can go in and separate after entering."
Lin Yining said, knowing.
"When is it convenient for you to go?" Fan Zike did not care about Lin Yining's overly indifferent attitude and asked: "My idea is that we will go in as soon as possible. It would be better if we could go today."
Lin Yining had no other opinions. After they exchanged the contents of the copy, they were ready to start this task.
This is what the mission background introduction says. Without any accident, a college student suddenly disappeared. Relatives and friends turned over his various social software and found that he had a free plan before he disappeared. And the last place he planned to go to before he disappeared was a nature reserve in Qingxiang.
He stayed at a local hotel for one night, and after checking out the next day, he was gone. Lin Yining and five others played the five roommates of the college student. They decided to go back to the nature reserve to find their friends.
The task begins with a bus in the center of Qingxiang. The car is a very ordinary kind. From the time they bought a ticket to the car to the official drive, a total of two-thirds of the people sat on the car. It looks no different from the world outside the game.
Lin Yining sat very close to the other four people. He felt that the creeper wrapped around his wrist seemed to be uncomfortable and rubbed in the palm of his hand.
"Ah!" the girl sitting next to him exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yining asked, turning his head away, and then he noticed that his cloak was somehow missing. The hand attached to a large piece of bark was suddenly exposed to the air.
['Professional coser's cloak' is judged to be an unsuitable item in this copy. Players should pay attention to the copy rules and do not speculate. 】
Lin Yining heard the system's prompt sound.
Fan Zike, who was sitting in a row in front of Lin Yining, turned around and saw Lin Yining's horrified face, so he didn't mean to avoid it. He said: "Most race skills and props are restricted."
This rule, they saw it before they entered the copy, saying that they would randomly restrict the use of some props, but they didn't expect them to get into mode.
Probably because Lin Yining's face was not good-looking, the girl sitting next to him hesitated again and again and changed his seat.
Lin Yining took out a mask from his pocket and put it on his face.
"This copy should not have too much content to kill, kill." Lin Yining lowered his eyes and replied: "The copy that depends on the brain, the props are not important."
The ghost sitting in the back row hummed.
Lin Yining ignored him, and then said: "If the main line of the mission is to decrypt, the hotel can't be detached from it, so let's go and watch it first."
