【Main quest progress update】

　　[Explore Ye Jie High School, break seven kinds of supernatural phenomena, the current progress is 1/7]

　　Hearing the system prompt, Ruoyu also heaved a sigh of relief. Her courage should be considered far above the level of ordinary people, perhaps braver than players like Long Ge, so when she saw the chilling newspaper clipping, she didn't have much reaction.

　　However, she still couldn't help but worry... because during the last call, Feng Bujue made it clear that he had found the well and was about to deal with it. And Ruoyu, who learned part of the information from newspaper clippings, combined with the songs she heard before, naturally came to the conclusion that "you can't look down the well", but she couldn't inform Feng Bujue before the next call. This feeling of being helpless when you want to help is really torturous.

　　What the system wants is this kind of effect. Maybe the two of them are unnecessary to worry about each other, but this kind of worry will undoubtedly become their own burden. Distraction, like fear, can make people make mistakes.

　　After hearing the reminder, Ruoyu was temporarily relieved. She checked the time on her phone, and it would be 25:00 in just over two minutes. The first floor of the main building was basically searched, so she stopped temporarily, planning to go up to the second floor after finishing this call.

　　At this time, she heard a system prompt: [In this script, if you stay for a long time, wander in the area you have explored, and do not attempt any actions to promote the game progress, it will be regarded as a "passive game". The value baseline will increase over time]

　　After hearing the words, Ruoyu sighed helplessly, took the mobile phone, picked up the lantern, and walked forward along the corridor.

　　The concept of "passive game" prompted by the system just now did not exist during the closed beta, and was only introduced during the public beta. Take the current script as an example, assuming that it is not Jue Ge and Si Yu in the script, but two players who do not know each other. One of them is very timid and has a worrying character. After the script started, he found a place he thought was safe and hid. Every time he called and answered, he would never become the responsible party. And his teammates are going through life and death on campus, solving various incidents, and maybe even become the target of hunting and killing because of the phone call. It is also possible that the two players are such people. They each found a place to hide and talked repeatedly...

　　This is just one example, in other scenarios, there may be situations where the player "does nothing" to survive. In order to prevent similar situations, the system added the concept of "passive game" during the public beta. If a player is judged to be in a negative game state, no matter whether he is frightened or not, his startle value baseline will rise slowly. The longer the passive game is, the higher the startle value bottom line will be. When it reaches 100%, he will be forced to go offline. Only by having the courage to actively return to the game can this effect be gradually eliminated.

　　Of course, this setting is not available in every script. For some scripts, such as the jigsaw game that Feng Bujue experienced, the isolated city controlled by Samodil, etc., the difficulty and customs clearance are closely related to time. danger or immediate death.

　　Two minutes passed quickly, the call time was up, and Ruoyu happened to arrive at the stairs, and she pressed the speed dial button on her phone while walking up.

　　"One, two, three, four..." Ruoyu silently counted the number of steps, and put the phone to her ear.

　　beep - beep -

　　After two rings, Feng Bujue answered: "I'm fine, are you okay?" This was his first sentence. He quickly answered a question that the other party might ask, and then asked himself want to ask.

　　"Everything is normal. I'm on the stairs leading to the second floor." When Ruoyu said this, he had already walked the first flight of stairs, turned left 180 degrees, and there was the second flight of stairs in front of him. Up the corridor: "I just finished the first flight of stairs, there are twelve steps." She said, and continued to walk forward: "You don't need to tell me about the things in the song, I basically understand, the hint is obvious. "

　　Feng Bujue was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Heh... If you say that, what should we say when we talk next?"

　　"It's good to inform each other about the progress of the task." Ruoyu replied, and then said: "Don't ask the other party if they are okay or if they are injured, because it won't help if you ask, and you won't be able to help if you know, it will only increase your troubles .”

　　Feng Bujue agrees with Ruoyu's suggestion very much in his heart, but it's not easy for Feng Bujue to say what Ruoyu said, at least he can't say it first. Because he is a man, if he said such words, he would be indifferent, indifferent, and cold-blooded... But when he said it from such an indifferent place like Ruoyu, there would be no sense of disobedience...

　　"Wow...you are really considerate, actually I think so too!" Feng Bujue quickly reported his progress: "By the way, I'm already in the building in the northwest corner, and the music room seems to be here , I'm going to have a look."

　　"Thirteen..." Ruoyu suddenly said, "The second step leading to the second floor from my side... is the thirteenth step."

　　Before Feng Bujue could speak, the call time was up, the call was cut off, and the busy tone sounded.

　　"Hello? Hello!" Feng Bujue yelled twice, but had no choice but to hang up the phone, and said to himself, "Hmm... the result is still very interesting."

　　At this time, he also came to the door of the music classroom.

　　After opening the door and entering, Feng Bujue scanned the entire classroom with a flashlight. There were no obvious abnormalities in the rows of seats below, and there were no bloody handprints or ghostly symbols on the four walls. The only thing that stands out is a piano in the classroom.

　　Feng Bujue murmured: "SoFaRe, LaSoRe..." He took a deep breath: "Should I press it? Could it be that some mechanism will be triggered after pressing it, and then something will fall from the cabinet?" Is it?" He then turned his head and held up a flashlight to shine on the glass case next to the wall where the music scores and teaching materials were placed, but the top of the case was obviously empty.

　　"Well... If there is really something there, you can get there by stepping on the piano bench." Feng Bujue said thoughtfully.

　　Feng Bujue's gaze slowly shifted to the statue of Beethoven on the low cabinet in the corner. This is a very common white plaster sculpture. It is carved with Beethoven's head and chest, and the ratio is close to one to one.

　　Feng Bujue walked over, illuminated the sculpture with a flashlight, and said, "Brother Fen, what do you think?"

　　He obviously didn't expect the statue to answer him. As he spoke, he put his mobile phone and flashlight on the cabinet on the right, and immediately tried to move the statue, only to find that the weight of the thing was normal, and there was no There is no mechanism such as hidden buttons, it seems that it is indeed an ordinary decoration.

　　"Brother Fen, everyone is an artist, it's too embarrassing." Feng Bujue said with a smile to himself, and picked up his phone and flashlight again.

　　He finally came to the piano. Although he knew that some bad flags would be triggered, he had to bite the bullet after all. He stretched out his fingers, and pressed them one by one according to the sound given in the ballad...
