Weird Apocalypse: Rebirth Starts with Trillions of Ghost Money

Chapter 409 Chen Mu's Golden Trap Rule

Hearing Chen Mu's words, the Lord of Terror seemed to accept his fate and sighed slightly. Because he already knew that Chen Mu had found the true way to survive.

Even so, the Lord of Terror was still a little dissatisfied. He thought that his design was flawless, so how could Chen Mu still find the flaws?

The Lord of Terror asked unwillingly: "In a strange scene, there are various traps, and different traps correspond to different ways to survive.

Judging from the clues you know, the guess that the player is the shelf should be just a conjecture.

How did you determine that this must be a trap? "

In fact, there are two very important concepts in the weird mission:

Traps and escape routes.

The so-called trap is a very familiar yet unfamiliar concept in strange missions, and it is also the most important concept.

In the weird mission, the trap refers to the pit that the weird BOSS actually dug for the players!

A complete strange mission includes two core links:

1. Discover the trap;

2. Find a way out of the trap.

In the previous strange missions, the concept of "trap" has actually been ignored.

For example, in the Duke's Misty Museum, in the game of hide-and-seek, "trap" refers to the game of hide-and-seek.

This sentence sounds like nonsense. Any normal person can see it at a glance. Is there any need to say it specifically?

The reason why it can be seen at a glance is that the previous weird mission was of lower difficulty, and the weird BOSS did not make a fuss about the traps. It directly told the players the traps and let the players concentrate on finding a way to survive.

Therefore, the main focus of players has always been on "finding a way out of the trap." How to find a way out has become the core link for players.

As for the "discovering traps" part, it has always been ignored by players.

Take the "Void Prison" that Chen Mu recently worked on as an example. This weird mission is at the pinnacle of the difficulty level of the Weird King, but the traps in it are still directly given.

The trap is that "the player is trapped in a time prison", which the player knows at a glance and there is no difficulty at all.

Players just need to find a way out, that is, find a way to escape from prison. But you never have to think about what the trap is, because the trap is obvious.

To sum up, in the weird scenes of the King of Ghosts level, the BOSS behind the scenes clearly tells the players "how I am going to trick you" (tells the players what the trap is), and the players only need to think about how to avoid being tricked (find a way out of the trap).

To put it simply, in the spooky scenes of the King of Ghosts level, players only need to "find a way out of the trap" without worrying about "discovering what the trap is" because the spooky BOSS has already clearly told players "what the trap is."

But in the weird scene of the main level, the difficulty has increased again.

Players not only need to "find a way out of the trap", but also "discover what the trap is"!

The BOSS behind the scenes will not tell the player "how I am going to trick you" (will not tell the player what the trap is), and will even tell the player the wrong trap to mislead the player.

Just like in Horror Supermarket, the Lord of Horror tells the player, "I will use 10,000 shopping guide tasks to trick you. You can only make no more than three mistakes. If you make more than three times, you will die."

This is actually a pseudo-trap!

If a player falls into this false trap and keeps thinking about "how to complete the shopping guide task 10,000 times", then this player will be close to death.

How can you find the real way out if you don’t find the real trap?

In fact, the real trap in the Panic Supermarket is that "players are shelves, and players cannot make themselves empty, otherwise they will die."

The Lord of Terror will not tell players the real traps, and may even tell players fake traps to mislead them. As for the players themselves, they need to see through the fake traps and find the real traps!

Only by finding the real trap can you discover the real way out.

This is also why the Lord of Terror was very surprised at how Chen Mu discovered the real trap.

Seeing the confused look on the Lord of Fear, Chen Mu showed a mysterious smile.

It’s true, the feeling of showing off in front of a weird BOSS is a rare enjoyment in this weird apocalypse.

Chen Mu did not rush to speak, but asked:

"What good will it do me to tell you this?"

The Lord of Terror glanced at Chen Mu and said, "I like to make friends with smart people. If you are a smart person, then we can talk about many things."

This sentence was actually a hint, telling Chen Mu that they could be friends.

The Lord of Terror is very powerful, at least at the level of a mid-level Ghost Lord, and has even reached the level of a high-level Ghost Lord.

Chen Mu could have broken up with the other party and said something like "Who do you think you are?" but there was no need to do so.

More friends mean more paths, and they are all powerful high-level ghost masters.

For Chen Mu, establishing a good relationship with a master-level powerhouse is a promising prospect.

Jianghu is not about fighting and killing; Jianghu is about human relations. Chen Mu doesn't want to be a person who blames the sky, the earth, and the air. He prefers to use the soft power of favor.

The most difficult debt to repay in the world is the debt of favor.

With some spoken language, you can leave a good impression and lay a solid foundation for future cooperation. Not a bad deal!

"It's very simple, because I know that no matter how things change, they still remain essentially the same." Chen Mu spoke slowly, and he said slowly:

“In the weird missions, there are countless concepts and routines, which dazzle the viewers, as if the routines are endless.

However, these are just appearances.

Appearances are ever-changing and have countless forms of expression. Even if you are knowledgeable, how can you see them all?

Trying to understand everything through appearances is a very superficial idea.

Only by finding the essence through appearances can we gain a thorough understanding!

In this strange apocalypse, there are many core essences, one of which is used to discover traps.

This essence is an unspoken rule of the strange apocalypse:

Any way of survival can be verified whether it is a way of survival without paying the cost of life.

This is not only a hidden rule for judging a way out, but also a hidden rule for judging a trap.

To tell you the truth, I did guess several traps in my previous guesses, and I wasn't sure which one was the real trap.

But when I was looking for a way out of the trap, I found that some so-called escape routes required the death of a person to verify them. This was contrary to the unspoken rules, so I naturally rejected it.

Originally, I was not sure about the conjecture that 'players are shelves', because if you want to verify this conjecture, you need to pay the price of your life.

For example, if a customer asks you to take a heart, is it possible that you actually cut your own heart with a knife? If the guess is wrong, he will die suddenly on the spot.

So the first time a customer asked me to give him my heart, to be on the safe side, I didn't remove my own heart, but gave him the one directly from the wall of the butcher shop.

It wasn't until the second time that the customer asked me to give him just a piece of my finger that I finally realized that the 'players are shelves' thing was the real trap.

Because if you want to verify it, you just need to cut off a finger!

Losing a finger is painful, but it's not life-threatening.

You can prove your way to survival without paying the price of your life, which conforms to that unspoken rule!

So it was at that time that I identified the real trap and found the real way out. "

As Chen Mu said, the reason why he timed out that time was because Chen Mu cut off his own fingers in front of the butcher shop wall, which delayed a little time.

The cruelest part of a strange mission isn't the price players pay to survive. The real cruelty is that players don't realize the true trap, and they don't even have the chance to pay the price!

Not even having the chance to pay the price is the most cruel thing.

It must be said that Chen Mu also paid a price. He dared to cut off his own fingers to verify his hypothesis, which made him a ruthless person.

After his finger was cut off, Chen Mu was surprised to find that the severed finger grew back immediately.

At the same time, the severed finger on the butcher's wall disappeared. My own finger no longer felt empty, as it had when I'd removed the heart.

So Chen Mu knew that when a customer needed an organ, the player needed to remove his own organ and give it to the customer.

However, players don’t have to worry, the removed organs will grow back immediately, and the corresponding organs on the butcher shop wall will disappear to fill the missing organs in the player’s body shelves.

Listening to Chen Mu's words, the Lord of Terror sighed deeply. At this point, the Lord of Terror was completely convinced.

It’s not unfair that I lost!

He didn't expect that Chen Mu's understanding of the strange mission had reached this level, and he had even summarized the rules.

In fact, Chen Mu’s words just now have pointed out a rule, or even the golden rule in strange missions!

Step one: guess the many possible traps.

Step 2: Infer the escape route of various traps through context and various hints.

Step Three: Only a way of survival that can be verified without paying the cost of life is the real way of survival. The corresponding trap is the real trap.

Chen Mu's set of rules for judging traps was named by Chen Mu himself as "Chen Mu's Golden Trap Rule".

Looking at the entire strange apocalypse, when everyone was struggling to survive, Chen Mu was already able to understand the patterns and summarize his own rules.

He has challenged so many top-notch weird scenes, formed his own theoretical system, and summarized his own golden rules. If this happened in ancient times, he would have been a master who founded a school.

The Lord of Terror looked at Chen Mu and said, "You look very rich. I always thought that wealthy players like you were afraid of death.

I didn't expect you to be so courageous that you dared to cut off your own hand.

If I guessed correctly, you should have chopped off your own head just now. "

To be honest, if it were the Lord of Terror, even if he was as wealthy as Chen Mu, he might not have the courage to chop off his own head.

If you guess wrong about your life path, you will really be dead.

Chen Mu smiled helplessly. He was not an idiot. If he had nothing to do, how could he cut his own head off for fun.

However, Chen Mu did not expect that the difficulty of the strange scenes at the Ghost Lord level would increase like this.

The previous Void Prison was considered the pinnacle of difficulty at the King of Creatures level, but it did not require players to harm themselves. At most, it traps the player and allows him to find his own way out.

At the trick master level, players even need to hurt themselves if they want to verify their way out.

The Horror Supermarket is the simplest spooky scene at the spooky level. Chen Mu can't imagine how much more difficult it will be in the future.

Just now, Chen Mu took a machete, took a deep breath, and cut off his own head in front of the wall of the butcher shop.

After the head was chopped off, a new head quickly grew out, and the bloody head with a blurry face on the wall of the butcher shop slowly disappeared.

At that moment, Chen Mu knew that he had succeeded in risking his life.

The Lord of Terror was already convinced. He looked at Chen Mu and said, "Boss Chen, don't you have any questions about me?"

"Of course." Chen Mu looked at the empty supermarket and asked his most puzzling question: "Why are the products in your supermarket so cheap?"

Chen Muke didn't believe that the Lord of Terror was doing any charity.

Apart from Boss Chen, is there any other boss who is so kind?

The Lord of Terror must have a hidden secret if he does this!

According to the principle of equal exchange, Chen Mu has already told him his secret, and it is his turn to tell Chen Mu his secret.

The Lord of Fear said: "Brother Chen, you don't know something. In this world, it's hard to make money."

Having said that, the Lord of Terror couldn't help but sigh.

This breath revealed the vicissitudes of life.

When Chen Mu heard it, he knew there was a story. He touched from the ring, took out a pack of cigarettes, smoked one from it, and lit it for the Lord of Terror.

Generally speaking, weird people like the Lord of Terror who have experienced many vicissitudes of life like smoking. It seems that this is one of the few happy times in their hard life.

The Lord of Terror took the cigarette, took a puff, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Boss Chen, what kind of cigarette is this?"

The Lord of Terror admitted that he had never smoked such a good cigarette.

Chen Mu smiled slightly, having discovered this. Things that were infused with pure, uncanny energy were incredibly attractive to the uncanny, especially the uncanny from hell.

Boss Chen has a lot of new and interesting gadgets that are infused with pure weird energy. Maybe he can make a fortune in hell.

"It's just a little specialty of our Wangjiang City. If you want the Lord of Terror, I'll take care of it." Chen Mu said proudly.

The Lord of Terror took a few puffs and couldn't help nodding repeatedly, "Good cigarette, really good cigarette!"

After taking a few puffs, the Lord of Terror blew out a smoke ring and said quietly:

"Boss Chen, you don't know that making money in Hell is extremely difficult. We all have a feeling that the ghost money in Hell is getting less and less."

Chen Mu was not surprised by this.

According to the Supreme Master of the Weird Dao, pure strange energy exists in both hell and the human world. In hell, it appears in the form of ghost money, and in the human world, it appears as pure ore.

Ghost money is like human refined ore, which will become less and less with use and consumption. What's more, Boss Chen is constantly making ghost money.

Throughout hell, as the number of hell coins decreases, it is natural that it becomes harder to make money.
