Reminder 3: Maid Lisa hates wasting food, so please be sure not to waste food.

Reminder 4: After 10pm is the evening rest time. Guests are requested to return to their guest rooms to rest in time. If you hear any noise coming from outside the door, please ignore it.

Reminder 5: Miss Carter doesn’t like to hear about her grandfather, so please try to avoid this topic.

Reminder 6: It is human nature to love beauty, but please do not be malicious towards Miss Carter.

Reminder 7: German Shepherd John is very obedient. If he suddenly yells at you, please be sure not to run away.

Reminder 8: People cannot hurt people, but weirdness can kill people.

……

……

Several people returned to their seats, and this reminder was passed on one after another. The six people read it carefully again.

"For rule-based dungeons, if you have any ideas, just bring them up and discuss with each other to increase your survival rate."

Lin Ye didn't rush to tell his analysis. His eyes first fell on Leng Shuang.

"Observe the time, breakfast, dinner and bedtime. We need to confirm the time at the villa to prevent any time errors."

In the reception room, there is an old clock swinging, and the current time is 12:18.

Leng Shuang took out her pocket watch to adjust the time.

The passerby raised the mechanical watch on his left hand and began to check it.

Lin Ye noticed that Asuna didn't respond, "Ms. Asuna, have you adjusted the meter?"

She looked calm and shook her head slightly, "I don't have a mechanical watch."

The next second, Asuna saw Lin Ye take out a red mechanical watch and push it in front of her.

She was stunned, "Then you..."

"I brought two."

He brought three disposable raincoats and two mechanical watches. Does this guy have a phobia of running out of supplies?

"I would personally move the clock forward an hour out of an abundance of caution."

The passerby quickly understood what Lin Ye meant. "Brother Ling, you have thought it through carefully. If the mechanical watch with wrong time will not be affected by unknown forces, we can use the mechanical watch with wrong time to determine the current time."

Leng Shuang thought about it and took the initiative to say, "I will set my mechanical watch back one hour."

The time shown on the watches of the passerby and Asuna was consistent with the ancient clock in the reception room. The time on Lin Ye and Leng Shuang's mechanical watches were one hour fast and one hour slow respectively.

"I'm sorry, the two of us..."

The high school student was embarrassed to speak, but the career beauty Linlin was not embarrassed at all. As a person who had entered the society and worked in sales for several years, she was not embarrassed at all.

Salespeople who feel "embarrassed" will not achieve good results and will not be able to survive in the sales industry.

"Just follow our actions."

The passerby said with a smile, causing the career beauty to swallow back the advice she was about to say.

She suddenly realized one very important thing, that is, the old players had no obligation to protect them.

On the premise that the old players ensure their own safety, they will spare some time to take care of the two newcomers. However, how can they take care of the two newcomers when the old players have no spare energy?

These two newcomers are now a blatant burden.

Leng Shuang spoke up at this time, "Don't worry that we will abandon you two. The number of people who survive is related to the final evaluation and rewards. In some dungeons, if too many players die, the strength of the weird will continue to grow."

Therefore,

Unless it is necessary, veteran players will not sit idly by and watch large numbers of casualties occur without taking any action.

Both the career beauty and the high school student felt a little relieved.

The topic returned to this 'reminder'.

"Article 5, Zero, what do you think?"

Asuna asked.

Her bright eyes reflected Lin Ye's face.

"The maid mentioned this grandpa, who left the villa some time ago. German Shepherd John is the grandpa's beloved dog, and the rules mention him again. I think this 'grandpa' must have a great connection with the background of this 'forest villa' and must be an important person."

"Miss Carter doesn't like Grandpa. Obviously there is a conflict between the two. This conflict may be one of the keys for us to decipher and explore this forest villa."

Leng Shuang spoke up at this time, "Our mission is to survive for three days, or to kill Weird, not to decipher the secret."

Lin Ye seemed to have expected someone to say this, "First, deciphering the complete background story can improve your evaluation and get higher rewards."

"Secondly, killing the weird also requires a method. If Miss Leng is confident in her own ability, I can give you a good suggestion."

"What suggestions?"

"Kill all the creatures in the villa, including the German Shepherd."

Leng Shuang was stunned. She had never thought of this. If she couldn't find who the weirdo was, then she should kill them all?

This operation seems to be feasible to a certain extent.

"Brother Lin, haha, I have thought of this too, but we can't do it this way. If the characters in the copy die, the copy will collapse. We don't know what kind of monster will appear. It is very likely that a powerful and unmatched monster will appear. At that time, no one will be able to resist and survive from it."

He smiled and said, "I remember a player actually did that. As a result, in that round of dungeon missions, except for one player who was lucky enough to come back alive, the other eight veteran players all died, torn to pieces by the monster that suddenly increased in strength."

Sure enough, other players have done this before.

Lin Ye took note of this incident.

Asuna continued, "The sixth point is to remind us not to have bad intentions towards Miss Carter, but what if she is weird!"

"Breaking the rules doesn't mean you'll die,"

In other words, even if you violate the rules, you still have a chance to survive.

This was Asuna's first time experiencing a rule-based copy, so her first instinct was to abide by all the rules.

But it seems that the reality is somewhat different from what she imagined.

At last,

Everyone focused on this last rule.

People cannot hurt people, but weirdness can kill people.

"Let's give it a try!"

Lin Ye suggested, turning his eyes to the "passerby".

"Ahem, don't look for me,"

He refused immediately.

"I'm not a masochist."

"Anyone volunteer?"

But no one responded.

Lin Ye said with regret, "Since everyone is unwilling, let me do it!"

He stretched out his hands and placed them on the table. "In fact, the injured are safer. The one who took action will bear the risk of being backfired by the rules."

This made the passerby who was about to express his willingness to help swallow his thoughts.

The huge reception room was silent for five seconds, and no one spoke.

Lin Ye withdrew his hand, shrugged and said, "My guess about the last one is that the injuries of people who hurt others will be healed, and the other is to punish the person who hurts, thus prohibiting the act of 'hurting'."

"Let me do it!"

Asuna pursed her lips and thought for a while, then stretched out her fair hand in front of Lin Ye. She sat next to Lin Ye.

She glanced away, a little nervous. Although she was already an experienced player, she was still afraid of pain.

But compared to this little bit of pain, she felt it was more important to figure out the form of the rules as soon as possible.

"Can……"

Lin Ye did not hesitate. He took out the dagger, disinfected it briefly, and then gently cut the girl's hand.

A wound appeared and blood oozed out, but before the red liquid had time to flow out, the wound had already healed completely.

this moment,

Everyone realized the manifestation of this rule.

'Boom boom boom...'

There was a knock on the door of the reception room.

"Click..." There was a slight sound of the door opening, and a silver-haired maid appeared at the door. She bent slightly and pushed open the door of the living room.

When the doors are all open,

A beautiful girl appeared in everyone's sight.

She has long flowing golden hair and a fair and delicate face that is beautiful and charming. Her skin is as white as snow under the black and red Lolita dress, showing her noble and elegant temperament.

The blonde girl looked at everyone and smiled. She lifted her skirt, bowed slightly, and greeted everyone with a smile.

"Good afternoon, distinguished guests. I am Aiki Carter. You can call me Aiki. Welcome to all the guests who have come from afar."

She welcomed him again. "Unfortunately, my father has not returned yet. If he comes back, I will inform you as soon as possible."

"For the next three days, I will entertain all the guests on behalf of my father and fulfill my role as a good host."

Her smile is sunny and her words are cheerful, just like a spring day, shining into the heart.

At least for this moment,

She didn't give people a weird feeling.

But Lin Ye frowned slightly. 'Grandpa' refers to the 'father' mentioned by Ai Qi. Isn't it a violation of the rules for Ai Qi to mention 'grandpa' on her own initiative?

Lin Ye also caught the reaction of the passerby, and the two of them exchanged glances.

"Thank you Miss Carter for your hospitality. I'm sure we will have a great time here."

"Haha, it's my greatest honor that the guests think so."

The blonde lady Aiqi looked at the maid beside her and said with her red lips moving slightly, "Lisa, if the guests have any needs, you must try your best to meet them and never neglect the guests."

"Don't worry, Miss, I will make sure that the guests will have a great time."

"Ah."

She looked at everyone again, "Dear guests, if you have any needs, please let Lisa know, and Lisa will do her best to satisfy you."

"Ok."

"Lisa, I'll trouble you from now on. Dear guests, I will take my leave for now."

The blonde lady smiled and bowed as she left. Her tall figure quickly disappeared at the end of the living room door.

"Lisa, does Miss Carter have a bad relationship with her father?"

"Hey, why do you ask this suddenly?"

The silver-haired maid looked at Lin Ye in surprise.

"Generally, if the relationship between father and daughter is good, they will address him as 'Dad' in front of guests. If it is a traditional large family, they will often address him as 'Father' in front of outsiders."

But now Aggie Carter was calling him "father", which was neither respectful nor in keeping with the large family, nor as intimate as "dad".

Therefore, it is completely reasonable for people to judge that there is a conflict between father and daughter and that their relationship is not good.

of course,

The biggest basis for judgment comes from the "rule reminder". But this is not an appropriate reason to explain to the maid.

"You know a lot, sir. There was indeed some unpleasantness between Grandpa and the eldest lady. This is..."

The silver-haired maid suddenly thought of something and shut up and didn't continue talking.

"As guests invited by Grandpa Carter, we may be able to contribute to easing the relationship between Miss Carter and Grandpa Carter."
