Infinite: Dawn Game
Chapter 502 Persuasion
The fact that Grandma Mu is not a "living player" will not cause a big stir in the town, but it will not affect the players in the "Fuling Hotel" game instance.
The news that tonight is the last night in the game has already spread throughout all the surviving player communities.
The person who spread this news was, of course, a nun.
After all... it's easy to win over these players, but to really get them to be willing to "besiege" Yu Shijiu and his group, you still have to offer them some "benefits".
Similar to high scores and items/potions, or perhaps, revealing the method for clearing this game's dungeon—of course, the nun will slightly modify and embellish it.
For example--
“Yu Shijiu is the only player among us who has ever been inside the manager’s office.”
Mu Gui swallowed nervously and whispered to the male player in front of him:
"The manager can possess a player's body. I suspect that the manager is currently possessing Yu Shijiu."
After saying this, Mu Gui tossed the potion in his hand to the male player in front of him and quickly said:
"This bottle contains a potion that can paralyze players and monsters for thirty seconds. If you can use it on Yu Shijiu, no, on the boss, the nun will give you three bottles of the potion and five thousand points after you clear the game."
"You decide for yourself whether you want to take a gamble."
After finishing her explanation, she quickly turned and left before the male player could react.
"..."
The male player watched Mu Gui's departing figure, looked down at the potion in his hand, and breathed heavily.
What did he mean just now?
His companion peeked out from behind him and whispered, "Do we have to...sprinkle this stuff on Yu Shijiu?"
The male player gritted his teeth and said, "He said Yu Shijiu has been possessed by the manager."
"Is there any evidence?"
"My companion asked."
The male player shook his head, "No, but..."
He lowered his head and shook the medicine in his hand, his voice very low, "This can also be evidence."
Three bottles of potions plus five thousand points... more than he would get from surviving and clearing a game dungeon, and all he had to do was throw the potions away...
The male player gripped the potion in his hand tightly.
His companion looked at him with a complicated expression, sighed, and patted him on the shoulder.
The male player instinctively looked at him.
His companion pulled out a bottle of the exact same potion from his pocket and sighed:
"I was still hesitant at first... but now it seems that if you're going to do this, I'll count you in too."
The same thing happened to every surviving player at the Fuling Hotel.
Most players hesitated before deciding to target Yu Shijiu, while a few players were still unsure what to do.
On the third floor, Mu Gui's heart was pounding as he knocked on the closed door.
A few seconds later the door was opened.
A woman with messy, uneven hair stood behind the door.
The woman's face was deathly pale, with dark circles under her eyes, and her lifeless eyes looked at him with an eerie and sinister air.
For a moment, Mu Gui almost thought he was seeing a strange NPC.
"Who are you?"
The woman coughed, her voice hoarse, and frowned. "Why are you knocking?"
“…Oh, oh, oh,” Mu Gui immediately reacted, took out a potion from his pocket and put it on the woman’s hand, “We now unanimously suspect that Yu Shijiu may be possessed by the BOSS…”
Mu Gui quickly repeated what he had said more than once, and seeing that the woman wouldn't take his medicine, he took another step forward.
"Take it."
"Whether it succeeds or not, the nun won't care about the five thousand points or the three bottles of potion," Mu Guidao said.
This is why most players are willing to "make a deal" with the nun.
The nun doesn't lack points. Although the points she earns from selling potions aren't enough for her to be reborn from the Dawn game, they're enough for her to live a life of plenty in town, even spending money (points) like water.
As a result, the points were just a number in the nun's eyes, a number that she wouldn't care about much.
Regardless of whether the transaction is successful or not, as long as the players who participated in the "transaction" are still alive when the game instance ends, the promised points and potions will definitely not be reneged on.
It's not that some former Black Robe Church players have considered taking the potions and points for themselves, but this only happened once, and then the player who coveted the points and potions disappeared from the game instance.
Everyone guessed that the nun discovered his hoarding of the points potion, which is why he died without making a sound.
When Pastor Gui first joined the Black Robe Church, he took over the "assistant job" of that dead player.
The nun is generally a very good "superior," except for her rather wicked and violent interests, she is very generous to her "assistant player," Pastoral Rules.
This is also one of the reasons why other players in the Black Robe Church are unhappy with the pastoral rules.
Shepherd Gui is speaking sincerely now.
Perhaps it was because the woman in front of him looked really bad.
It wasn't just the woman's messy-looking hair and numb face, but more so her eyes.
Mu Gui didn't know how to describe the woman's eyes.
He felt that the woman in front of him looked like a "human puppet" who had lost her vitality but was forced to live on.
The woman looked at him indifferently, her bloodshot eyes appearing somewhat eerie in the dim light of the corridor.
"I do not need."
Three seconds later, the woman refused outright, then reached out and closed the door.
"and many more!"
Mu Gui, quick-witted and agile, braced himself against the door and said urgently:
"I'm serious! Look at your current state. If you get points and three potions in the remaining time, your chances of survival in the game will definitely increase significantly!"
It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not—
"I told you I don't need it."
The woman stared intently at Mu Gui, who was trying to say something more, then lowered her head, covered her mouth, and coughed violently several times.
Mu Gui took a step back as she coughed at him, somewhat puzzled.
"Why not? This isn't a good thing—"
boom!
The door slammed shut in front of Mu Gui.
The mule, who had been interrupted, stared in astonishment at the closed door in front of him. Although he did not understand why the woman disagreed, he could only turn around and leave.
He still needs to... continue searching for other players.
This was a task given to him by the nun.
Thinking that Yu Shijiu would not only have to fight against the strange NPCs tonight, but also have to guard against the backstabbing of the players, Mu Gui couldn't help but think of An Jie's face.
...Anjie is probably watching him "slander" her companion right now in front of the live stream screen.
Mu Gui pursed his lips, a fleeting look of shame crossing his eyes.

"?"
Yu Shijiu stared in shock at the shattered vase on her bedside table, then looked down at Feifei, who was lying on the carpet with her head down, pretending to be busy.
