Elevator Survival: Master of Every Floor

After ending the last live stream, Wang Lei had been deep in thought. He believed that the individual considered an easter egg by the public was not as simple as he seemed.

His gaze was not dull like other game characters; instead, it was filled with wisdom.

Even current game technology could not change this aspect.

Therefore, he had a bold speculation—could this so-called easter egg character be a human trapped within the game?

Wang Lei, who had run all the way to the Barbarian Camp, was hiding in the bushes as usual, observing everything surreptitiously.

“Guys, let’s vote. Should we go out directly or wait for this npc to kill the barbarians first?”

【Streamer, why not vote on whether to kill this npc? I suggest we kill him. His equipment is too good.】

【The one above, you should play the game! The official easter egg, the rescue team member, won’t drop weapons even if you kill him.】

【Is this supposed to be the most realistic game? I object!】

……..

In no time, the barrage in the live streaming room changed, with various disdainful comments emerging one after another.

Seeing the barrage getting noisy again, Wang Lei was speechless. He had to contact the room manager to kick out a few ringleaders.

As for killing the so-called npc, Wang Lei could not do it. He had an intuition that this was not just an npc.

The last time he encountered him, it seemed like he wanted to talk to him. Unfortunately, back then he was using a PC, which lacked the speech function. Although the virtual gaming pod had a voice function, it was virtually useless as the barbarians in the game were all programmed and couldn’t understand whatever gibberish you spoke.

Soon, under Lin Feng’s precise shooting, all the barbarians in the Barbarian Camp were killed.

While killing the barbarians, Lin Feng had counted them and found that there were more than the 25 the system had announced. Perhaps some barbarians had been attracted by the gunshots?

He also found the Barbarian Chief, who wore a necklace made of many human bones and held a weapon that was a human skull. He also had three legs and four arms. It was hard to deny, this creature was incredibly resilient; Lin Feng had to shoot him five or six times to kill him.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have anything useful. The only thing of value in the entire Barbarian tribe was probably the golden treasure chest.

The difficulty of the floors, as announced in the broadcast, had greatly increased. Without his automatic rifle, Lin Feng doubted he would be as arrogant, let alone other survivors armed only with bows and arrows. Once surrounded by barbarians, death was the only outcome.

“Let’s look for the chest first.”

Lin Feng glanced at the time for the elevator to close and found that there was enough time. He began to search earnestly for the golden chest, having not found it in several straw houses before.

Now, only one place remained—the hole from which the barbarians had emerged.

Looking at the narrow and damp hole, Lin Feng’s skin crawled.

Did he really have to go down?

The sight was enough to trigger his claustrophobia!

Just then, under the urging of the audience in the live streaming room, Wang Lei slowly emerged from the bushes.

To avoid being shot to pieces by this npc, Wang Lei greeted him in advance.

【The streamer is so stupid, does he need to greet him? It’s just an npc. I guess this npc set by the official is a friendly npc. No matter what you do, he won’t attack you.】

【That makes sense, but the streamer might be immersed in the virtual reality scene.】

【To be honest, when I play virtual reality games, I sometimes treat npcs like real people.】

【Hahaha, it’s too real to treat them as real people. It’s like when I played Morality and Law 10 in the gaming pod, I was too embarrassed to kill anyone.】

………

At this moment, Wang Lei was not paying attention to the live chat. He was preparing to end his live stream because he was about to ask some foolish questions. He feared that he would be labelled as a gaming host who had gone mad and couldn’t distinguish between the virtual world and reality.

“Folks, I just received a notice. There will be a power outage in about 5 minutes. If my stream suddenly ends, don’t ask why. I’ll resume as soon as the power is back.”

“A power outage? What a joke! Are you trying to slack off, host?”

“I can’t believe there would be a power outage in this day and age. The host must be looking for an excuse to take a day off.”

“Here’s a rocket for you, no need for a power cut.”

“Hahahaha…..”

……

Meanwhile, Lin Feng was puzzled by the gamer who was slowly approaching him. Why was this guy not playing his game and instead coming to him?

Wait!

Could he be mistaking him for an NPC in the game??

Considering the gamer’s behavior, it was highly possible.

“Hello.”

Wang Lei cautiously greeted.

“Hello.”

“Holy cow! The host is interacting with the NPC!”

“Could this be a test feature set up by the game developers? Maybe in the future, players using game capsules will be able to chat with NPCs using the in-game voice feature!”

“That makes sense. Since they introduced the voice feature in the game capsule, it must be useful. Host, keep the conversation going, let’s see what we can find out.”

Click!

The host has ended the live stream. Follow us to not miss out~

Faced with the sudden termination of the live stream, the viewers in the chat room began to discuss more fervently. Although Wang Lei had used the excuse of a power outage, no one believed it in this technologically advanced era.

Instead, they speculated that the host had stumbled upon a beta feature in the game and was contacted by the game officials to end the stream.

But these theories were of no concern to Wang Lei. He was now certain that the man standing in front of him was not an NPC, but a real human being.

“Hello, are you a human?”

Wang Lei’s question left Lin Feng speechless.

Do I look that different from a human??

Or did this guy not see him as an NPC…

“Obviously, I am a human.”

“What I mean is, are you a human trapped in this game? I see this forest as a game.”

“I wouldn’t say I’m trapped. I will be leaving this world in an hour and a half.”

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Wang Lei was so thrilled he felt like he could fly.

He had not expected to encounter such a mysterious situation.

“Then who are you?”

“I… suppose you could say I’m a poor sod who travels across various worlds.”

Lin Feng pondered before replying. His current situation was indeed like that. Each day marked a different floor, and each floor represented a different world.

Now, he had been discovered by a player in a game world.

Soon, these two individuals from different worlds and civilizations began to chat.
