Chapter 17 Neri Town
As for the old players, there are only two, which is less than the number of new players... I don’t know why.

However, the small number of veteran players is a good thing for Zhao Xun.

If the players in the game are hostile to each other, it would be easier to deal with the older players if there are fewer of them.

After waiting for a while, no footsteps were heard around, and no new players appeared.

Everyone looked at each other in silence, and no one spoke.

At this time, a pop-up window popped up in front of everyone.

The moment Zhao Xun saw the pop-up window appearing in front of him, he immediately glanced at the others.

When he found that he couldn't see other people's pop-ups, he knew that this was information that only he could see.

Only then did he look at his pop-up window.

[Welcome to [Neri Town] platform game. 】

[This is an ancient and peaceful town. The residents in the town are warm and friendly, and have a very harmonious relationship with each other. 】

[But recently, factors that disrupt the harmonious atmosphere suddenly appeared in the town. In order to restore the town to normal, all the residents of the town are working hard. 】

[I hope you can work with the town residents to maintain the harmony of the town. 】

Zhao Xun read these sentences patiently.

I haven't found any useful information yet, just a simple background introduction to the story.

The pop-up window slowly disappeared, and a new pop-up window appeared.

[Player Zhao Xun’s main mission: Get the heart of the sculpture. 】

Zhao Xun: "..."

There is so much introduction to the background of the story, but only a few words about the main mission.

This main mission seems to have nothing to do with the previous story background.

Even the task didn't make it clear which sculpture the "sculpture" was.

It seems that he needs to rely on himself to explore.

However, from this short text, Zhao Xun still determined a valid message.

"Player Zhao Xun's main mission" means that this is his unique mission in this game.

Other players will also have their own main quests.

In addition, the tasks are released in the form of a pop-up window that only you can see, which may mean that the main tasks of the players in this game are different.

There may even be situations where they are targeting each other.

For example, if his mission is to "get the heart of the sculpture", then there may be a player whose mission is to "destroy the heart of the sculpture".

Before Zhao Xun could think more, the picture in front of him suddenly shook for a moment.

He subconsciously moved his steps to try to stabilize his body, and the scene returned to stability in the next second.

It's just that there are no other five players around him, and he is in an open-air fountain square.

He was standing next to the fountain pool. The little angel sculpture in the fountain pool was retro and cute. He could still feel the cool temperature in the pool water.

Not far away there was a wandering artist playing the violin, and his violin case was filled with banknotes and coins tipped by passers-by.

This place is full of life, completely different from the empty and deserted grassland before.

Zhao Xun quickly realized that he should be in the small town of Nairui now.

The grassland where the six players gathered before was an area outside the small town of Neri.

Zhao Xun looked around and soon found a hidden and uninhabited corner. This is a corner, and there are two big trees in front of it, which are enough to block the people hiding in the corner.

Zhao Xun took out the suitcase from the system storage compartment, opened it, and found a palm-sized, exquisite and compact metal box hidden in the inner pocket of the suitcase.

Opening the metal box, there was a thick sponge pad wrapped in a dark brown glass bottle.

Zhao Xun turned the ring holder on the index finger of his right hand, revealing the small needle hidden inside.

Then he carefully opened the glass bottle, put the small needle in, and dipped it into the liquid in the bottle.

After doing all this, he put the glass bottle away with his left hand and kept his right hand still, waiting for the liquid to dry on the small needle.

This liquid was the poison that killed the bearded man instantly.

Since Zhao Xun thought of a way to create a hidden weapon in the ring and quench the poison, it was naturally impossible for the hidden weapon to become a disposable item.

So he brought a whole bottle of poison as a backup - if the poison was not too difficult to get, he would have prepared a few more bottles.

After killing Beard with the hidden weapon in the ring that night, he did not immediately re-quench the ring.

On the one hand, there were too many people on the train, so he couldn't take out the poison in public, otherwise the ring would lose its significance as a hidden weapon.

On the other hand, he had not opened the storage compartment before, so the suitcase could not be hidden. Dragging the suitcase directly to the bathroom would also attract others' attention.

That would make it easier for others to covet his suitcase.

So it wasn't until now that he re-tempered the ring with poison.

After putting the suitcase back into the storage compartment, Zhao Xun was in no hurry to leave.

He leaned against the wall and pondered his thoughts.

What he is more concerned about is that this game has no difficulty levels.

Although he is not keen on playing games, he also knows that no matter what type of game, there are basically difficulty levels.

Even a small game like Xiaoxiaole will distinguish the difficulty level.

Depending on the difficulty of clearing the game, the scores obtained will also change accordingly.

The higher the difficulty, the higher the score.

However, this platform game did not announce the difficulty level, nor did it say how many points you would get after completing the level.

If there is no difficulty division, and every player who clears the game gets the same points, it will be difficult to widen the points gap. You can't rely on the player's consumption on the train to affect the daily points ranking, right?

I always feel that it shouldn't be like this.

But there really is no difficulty level given yet.

Is it because the difficulty prompt appears during the task?

Well, we can only wait and see what the specific situation is.

Zhao Xun stood up, straightened the wrinkles on his clothes, and walked out of the corner.

What he currently wants to do is collect information about the sculpture.

The sky was getting darker and darker, but not a single light came on in the square.

But I can still see clearly what’s around me.

Zhao Xun was just about to take advantage of the fact that before it got completely dark, he asked a passerby to ask if there were any particularly famous sculptures in the town, when he saw everyone running in the same direction.

After thinking for a while, he took steps to follow.

When I walked to the bulletin board in Fountain Square, I found a fresh announcement posted on it.

[The witch who escaped this afternoon poses a great threat to the small town of Neri. Please pay attention to your own safety and try not to go out at night. ]
[If anyone finds traces of the witch, please report it to the security department in time. ]
[If you find that someone is harboring a witch, you can also report it to the security department. ]
[Anyone who can provide true information about the whereabouts of the witch will be rewarded with a gold coin. ]
[If you can help the security team catch the witch, you can get a reward of ten gold coins. ]
[I hope that all the residents of the town can unite and work together to find the evil witch who threatens the safety of the town. ]
