Chapter 9, Do you want to split it evenly
A beautiful girl with a petite figure walked out beside Lin Chen
Lin Chen was taken aback and turned his head in surprise to look at the well-fed middle-aged man
Upon seeing it, everyone immediately had their eyes gleaming, and some even quietly swallowed their saliva
Having said that, Zhang Wei stepped forward, reluctantly purchased some food with his 100 ghost coins, and then left directly
Upon seeing such "sky-high prices" for the dishes, everyone immediately felt disheartened
Among them, only the players serving as waiters can afford to buy, while the others find that the ghost coins in their hands are barely enough to purchase two steamed buns
She is not very old, appearing to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, about the same age as Lin Chen
Currently, Lin Chen has a general understanding of the names and identities of many human players. The well-spoken, affluent middle-aged man is named Wang Hong, and it is said that he is a wealthy real estate company owner in the outside world
Zhang Wei is a very upright person. Although Wang Hong is in the same team as him, at this moment, he also stepped forward as a guide and said:
Regardless of the circumstances, this is a significant figure; if he truly manages to survive and connect with such individuals, it undoubtedly represents an opportunity
Lin Chen pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head. He could not make sense of the matter regarding the lead ghost for the time being, but if there were indeed ulterior motives, they would eventually come to light. The only thing he could do now was to quickly capture some ghosts, sell them for a lottery, and then enhance his own strength. By that time, even if he were to confront a peak entity like the lead ghost in red, he would not be overly passive
But why did he not take action, merely because what I did did not violate the 'rules' of the horror game, which prevented him from having the opportunity to act
In response to this, the team leaders Zhang Wei and Li Qun did not say much, as they too could not comprehend the situation that was unfolding before them
Let us divide the ghost currency equally among everyone, as we are all on the same side of humanity and should help each other accordingly
The young girl stepped forward, just about to speak
In the crowd, someone who had received fewer ghost coins said this, and immediately everyone fell silent
Lin Chen directly pushed aside the crowd, and in front of them, flipped through the menu of the vending machine. He inserted 300 ghost coins and, with a rapid succession of taps, purchased two portions of stir-fried dishes and two portions of rice.
Have I really been exposed
There is a wide variety of items available, including daily necessities, stir-fried dishes and rice, as well as snacks and fruits.
Lin Chen rolled his eyes, showing no regard for Wang Hong, and was just about to retort
Li Qun's words almost echoed Wang Hong's sentiments, and the meaning is quite clear; he agrees with those who suggest taking out the excess ghost money
Xu Qian glanced at Li Qun and said: "I won't concern myself with anything else, but don't think about getting something for nothing. As for my team members, if they have extra ghost coins and are willing to share, that's fine; however, if they are unwilling, no one can force them! Otherwise, when we return to the outside world, I will definitely report it. Here, the law exists just the same!"
I did not attend this training either
Suddenly, Lin Chen pulled the girl aside and said
Li Qun's eyes flickered, and he smiled, saying: "If it is for compensation, then there is no problem. If someone has excess ghost coins, it is fine to share them, after all, there will be new work rewards tomorrow, and more ghost coins will come in."
I have no other intentions; isn't this about mutual assistance? If we do not share equally, I can also make a purchase. If anyone is willing to lend me ghost coins, I will repay them tenfold or a hundredfold once I return to the outside world
As soon as they reached the stairway, everyone saw the vending machine mentioned by the foreman, Ghost
As a waitress, she had earned quite a few ghost coins. At this moment, her pretty face was slightly flushed, and the hand gripping the ghost coins had turned somewhat pale from the effort, making her appear quite awkward.
Lin Chen laughed directly: "What does it have to do with me that you are hungry? Ghost coins are not game currency. If you are hungry, just eat some steamed buns to fill your stomach. I am not your parents, and I have no reason to take care of you"
As a cleaner in the Haunted Restaurant, he is a member of Zhang Wei's team
Wang Hongdao: "We are all part of one team; so many people are hungry. How can you just leave? It's just game currency. You can take it out, and I will compensate you when you go out."
It has happened for the second time
All were gathered around the vending machine, gazing at the food inside, feeling a sense of despair and helplessness
But when they saw the price, they were all taken aback
The vegetable washer and the cleaner exchanged glances with each other, and then turned their attention towards Lin Chen and the others
However, Xu Qian, who had been standing by, suddenly spoke up, saying: "Although we are protectors, we are not unpaid volunteers; we also receive compensation. It is not as noble as you claim. The amount of ghost coins earned in the game is distributed based on individual performance, and others have no reason to share their rewards with you. Furthermore, ghost coins are not game currency; their value is very high"
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly expressed their unwillingness. A somewhat portly middle-aged man stepped forward, his face filled with anger, and said:
It was even more extravagant to spend two ghost coins to buy a plastic bag, packing all the food into a burlap sack, and then picking up the sack and turning to leave directly
Upon hearing these words, many people's eyes flickered, clearly indicating that they were somewhat tempted
Everyone was already so hungry that their stomachs were touching their backs, and they immediately gathered around, preparing to buy some food to satisfy their hunger
Although he is a protector, he encountered a very difficult fat chef ghost, who did not give him a high rating, and he is also facing a situation of not having enough to eat
Stop!
A vending machine was directly surrounded by forty-three players
At this moment, it is evident that he intends to take out his ghost currency and distribute it to everyone
Lin Chen's expression was devoid of emotion, yet his heart stirred. He always felt that the way the foreman looked at him was different from how he looked at others
Wang Hong angrily said: "We are all part of one team, and you must learn to help each other. Just like the Guardian, who could have stayed out of it, but came to participate in the game to help us through the dungeon, providing us with training and disregarding their own safety. In comparison, don't you feel ashamed?"
In the dining options, aside from the staple steamed buns priced at 10 ghost coins each, the cheapest stir-fried dishes start at 50 ghost coins, and this is only for vegetarian dishes. As for those with meat, the prices are even higher, all exceeding a hundred coins.
Wang Hong's face turned red and then pale, as a successful individual, it is rare for anyone to speak to him in such a disrespectful manner. However, this person is somewhat shrewd, and suddenly opened his mouth to laugh and said
Along the way, the members of the other two teams were subtly discontented with Lin Chen's side, feeling a significant sense of imbalance
Lin Chen, along with the other waitstaff, ascended to the third floor of the restaurant, which is the floor designated for the staff's accommodation
Lin Chen shook his head, secretly lamenting that this naive girl, who had never been in society, was truly easy to deceive
Step aside if you are not buying, I am waiting to eat here
During the training, it was already mentioned to you that in a horror game, the only person you can rely on is yourself! Why is it that others can obtain so many ghost coins while you cannot? You are all adults; why should others' possessions be shared with you? Does that mean the wealth you have in the outside world can also be evenly distributed among everyone?
With the remaining money, Lin Chen also bought two bottles of soda and several bags of spicy chips.
After the foreman ghost left, the new players, feeling dizzy from hunger, followed in groups towards their dormitory under the guidance of three guardians
What does it have to do with me if others help you? Here, there is no such thing as a free obligation. I catch a ghost myself and still need to cleverly swindle 5,000 yuan as a reward!
