Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

In his previous life, Zhou Ning entered the game relatively late and completely missed the first version of the Curse Cult when it was at its most powerful. However, this did not prevent him from hearing about the sect's notoriety.

Spreading the plague and carrying out sacrifices everywhere are just part of it!

The leader of the Cult of the Curse seems to be particularly keen on destroying the world and wiping out humanity. To achieve this goal, he has colluded with the Cult of Death, the Cult of Plague, the Goddess of War, and various ancient gods.

Even Lu Bu was left behind in the speed of changing flags, making him a version of the Three Surnames House Slave from another world.

Even if he fails repeatedly, he keeps fighting and never forgets his lofty ideal of destroying the world.

In the end, even the players were moved by them.

I've never seen such an inspiring villain.

However, the time traveler Zhou Ning said it was just average, that was because they had never seen Bald Qiang and Big Bad Wolf. Well, in terms of inspiration, these two guys are the most ruthless.

Zhou Ning searched several members of the Curse God Cult and found nearly 7 Victa and 50 Roshen. Apart from that, there were only some addictive drugs and a few weather forecast sticks.

The weather forecast stick is used to predict the weather, although it is sometimes not very accurate.

According to the laws of the Kingdom of Bryston, all hotels, including dormitories, must provide guests with a free weather forecast stick every day. It works similarly to a pregnancy test stick: after scratching it, a single red line appears within 10 minutes, indicating sunny weather. Two red lines indicate rain. One red line and one light red line indicate cloudy or unusual weather conditions.

This bunch of poor people!

Zhou Ning put the money and weather forecast stick he had looted from the Curse God Cultists into his arms and opened the game panel.

Killing Marion and the Cult of the Curse brought him a total of 9500 experience points. Adding the 500 points he already had, his experience points officially exceeded 1 points.

A huge amount of money in the early stages of the game.

In the game "Apocalypse", experience points can be used to upgrade both professional levels and general skills. Life skills such as alchemy and enchantment can only be upgraded through accumulated proficiency.

Zhou Ning's current profession was a student, and his secondary profession was a linguist. He wasn't a combat specialist, so he didn't need to spend experience points to level up his profession. Experience points in the game "Apocalypse" were like real-life money: no matter how much you had, it was never enough. In his previous life, Zhou Ning had witnessed many examples of people who spent recklessly during normal times, only to run out of experience points when it mattered most.

Therefore, after a moment's deliberation, Zhou Ning only spent 5000 experience points to upgrade his basic shooting proficiency from basic to advanced, which finally improved his combat effectiveness. This could also be used when fusing skills in the future.

The panel changed again.

The rest is omitted for now.

"Brother, can you help me untie the rope?" said the fat boy Alan weakly.

Even though he was of no help at all, it did not stop Alan from lying down and watching the whole thing. He was filled with admiration for the man in front of him.

Although this admiration for him had somewhat diminished after he was tied up like a pig to be slaughtered and left hanging for five minutes, when Zhou Ning untied the ropes that bound him, the fat boy Alan still held Zhou Ning's hand with tears in his eyes: "Good man!"

"Although I understand your feelings, I do not accept physical rewards, especially from men."

Zhou Ning winked at Alan and joked in a light tone.

"I don't want to repay you with my body." Alan retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted. He immediately realized that the other party wanted to use humor to ease his emotions, and for a moment he felt a little grateful.

Before Zhou Ning could speak, Alan quickly added, "I will repay you well, I promise! You will also gain the friendship of the West family, especially me personally!"

【You have opened a new faction reputation! 】

[The Wester family's favorability towards you has increased by 1500 points!]

[West Family: Friendly (1500/3000)]

"it does not matter."

Zhou Ning smiled, not dwelling on the so-called repayment. Even if there was no repayment, the reputation he could gain from the West family was already worth it. As a time traveler, he had a thousand ways to make money, but the opportunity to establish a new power's reputation was something he could only encounter once in a while.

In the game "Apocalypse", the concepts of royal power, divine power and family are emphasized most.

Nothing is more supreme than divine authority, and nothing is more powerful than royal authority. However, the emergence of the extraordinary power of [family precepts] has made the concept of family extremely important. After continuous development, the nobles with family precepts have become increasingly powerful, and their influence has spread throughout the military, politics, industry and commerce of their respective countries.

For players, maintaining a good relationship with this faction not only allows them to purchase rare items and skills, but also has a slight chance of becoming a member of the clan nobles through them.

Take the West family for example. This family controls the Alchemy Association. Making friends with them is equivalent to finding a backer in the Alchemy Association, which is also extremely beneficial to one's own development.

Ever since Zhou Ning made a well-timed joke, the atmosphere between the two of them has become much more harmonious. However, the D-level mission [Gratitude of the West Family] that he had received before has never been completed. It is estimated that he has to escort him out of Jason Nat's haunted house.

He decided to be a good person and took Alan back to the previous prison cell. There were two survivors hiding inside and shivering. When they saw Zhou Ning and the others, they almost cried with gratitude.

After some chatting, the four of them arrived at the entrance of Jason Nat's haunted house and roughly understood each other's identities. In addition to Zhou Ning and Alan, one was named Richard Pesa, whose family ran a large herbal medicine shop. The other was named Luke, whose father was a tax collector in Darkland City.

Zhou Ning reached out and pushed open the door. It was almost midnight, and a chilling chill made him shrink his neck. Is this the world in the game?

Exactly the same terrain as in the game, Jason Nat's haunted house is located in the dock area, near a tavern called the Cow and Clover. Zhou Ning had previously set a record point there in the game, and there was a long street not far away when he walked out.

At one end of the street is the area where prostitutes hang out, and there are still a few prostitutes soliciting customers coming out of the bar.

As the four men crossed the street and prepared to head to the nearest police station, a magnificent carriage stopped in front of them.
