I, the screenwriter, have experienced a resurgence of inspiration.
Chapter 109 Non-human Players, What Kind of Demons and Monsters?
Song Mo lay in the temporary quarantine point, but his gaze was fixed on the sky above him.
The ward is fully equipped and strictly disinfected; protective clothing must be changed before entering or leaving.
"Don't worry, it's just a routine blood test to rule out the risk of infection. They won't use your blood for any experiments or anything like that."
The medical staff drawing her blood seemed to sense her nervousness and comforted her with a smile:
"Every player who comes out of the dungeon will undergo a routine check and be registered. Currently, the plan is to conduct a physical examination once a year and a status check every six months."
Don't be nervous, come on, hold out your hand.
She gestured for Song Mo to roll up her sleeves, then skillfully disinfected the area, removed the needle, and applied a pressure bandage—
Just as she lowered her head.
An invisible mist of blood silently spread throughout the room, and layers of bloodstains climbed up the walls.
The ghost's hair quietly brushed against the medical staff's feet, and then her eyes glazed over for a moment.
In the surveillance footage from the corner, she only paused for a moment, then naturally turned to the side, seemingly to retrieve antidote supplies—
The surveillance cameras were obscured.
[Scene 1: "Late Song Dynasty" undergoes a medical examination, and all reports show normal results... A normal blood sample from a 25-year-old human woman... shows no abnormalities...]
[Creation Successfully Completed.]
The brief script came to life. At the end of the Song Dynasty, a slight movement of his fingertips caused densely packed liquid characters to appear in the transparent syringe—
But it only lasted a moment, so fast that it was impossible to catch.
The ink-wash characters quickly disappeared, and once the characters were gone, only the normal bright red color remained in the test tube.
The power of words has influenced reality.
At this moment, in this place, no matter what kind of testing technology is used, the only conclusion that can be reached is "this is a tube of normal human blood".
Like a Kraken attempting to extend its tentacles, Song Mo boldly took the first step.
……
"?"
The medical staff were somewhat dazed, but when she looked down, she found that Song Mo was already pressing the wound with a cotton swab.
She assumed it was because she was too tired from working non-stop lately, so she didn't take it to heart.
"Okay, press for five minutes. Try not to get it wet for the next two days."
I see your health indicators are all normal; you should be able to go back soon after registering.
"Thanks."
At the end of the Song Dynasty, he politely thanked her and gently pressed on a non-existent needle prick.
At this moment, there were chaotic footsteps outside the door, and everyone in the makeshift medical station was too busy to be in two places at once.
Nobody noticed the little anomaly here.
No one would doubt a blood sample that is perfectly normal.
……
……
An anomaly occurred in the instance; of the eight players who went in, only three came out alive.
The shocking news that the son of the Lu Group died in a dungeon was enough to give the Special Investigations Bureau a headache.
Starting from the early hours of the morning, domestic and foreign journalists, like snails searching for a rotting corpse, all hid under the sand...
But if the Special Investigation Bureau makes any move, they will swarm out, gather wildly, and tear at each other.
—The instance has undergone abnormal changes. Why didn't the Special Investigation Bureau anticipate this?
—Innocent civilians have been caught up in the dungeon. Is this a dereliction of duty by the Special Investigation Bureau, or a drawback of China's monopoly on dungeons?
—Has the Special Investigation Bureau already made plans to open the dungeon to non-official players?
A series of problems, both potential and already existing, came crashing down on this newly established institution.
There are at least tens of thousands of reports about the strange occurrences at Taiping Cemetery alone...
The passing Special Investigations agent looked utterly despairing, so exhausted he felt like his soul was about to fly out of his mouth.
……
……
"Then you should rest well first. Special Investigations agents might come to find out what's going on later."
The medical staff pushed the cart away, their eyes filled with regret and sorrow.
"The other two players are still receiving treatment... Only the three of you survived this time..."
No, to be more precise, it was the Special Investigation Bureau's assumption that "only three players survived."
An old man who was just watching the fun got pulled into the dungeon.
A young college student.
A late Song Dynasty.
Actually, the real third player is a fox.
……
……
I never entered the instance from beginning to end during the late Song Dynasty.
To conceal her special status, she changed the number of players allowed in the instance to ten and added two permanent NPCs.
Surprisingly, the 404 error, or rather, the three remaining players randomly selected from the instance, were not human.
Yes, literally, non-human.
A toad, a fox, and a snake.
The toad player entered the dungeon, hopping around until he was swallowed whole by a crow in a tree.
The snake player seems to have some intelligence, understanding the concepts of "dungeon" and "quest," but sadly, it is illiterate.
So in the end, they failed to complete the mission and remained in the instance as a terrifying decoration.
Only the last fox player not only accurately completed the "Wipe Tombstone" quest, but also awakened a new class.
……
……
"It really is a fox! This must be one of the fox dens that A'Zhu discovered living in Taiping Cemetery, right?"
Song Mo lay down on his back and, sure enough, saw the prompt that he could draw a skill.
The contributor to this entry is a player named "Fox".
[Player: "Fox"]
[Race: Fox Clan]
[Level: 1]
[Occupation: Herb Collector (Yellow)]
Passive Skill: Wilderness Tracking
[Skill Effect: Increases perception of the wild environment by 50%, enabling the identification of common poisonous plants and traps.]
……
In the dungeon replay, a gray shadow was huddled under the seat, but the other players, who were completely captivated by the ghostly ghost, ignored its presence.
This fox is skinny and emaciated.
Its fur was a dull, earthy yellow, its left ear was noticeably missing a piece, and its nose was also white.
Unlike the fat, robust, and even somewhat deformed ornamental foxes kept in zoos.
It also doesn't resemble the fox breeds depicted in online videos, which are described as having glossy fur and a noble demeanor.
They are the most ordinary wild foxes that steal offerings from cemeteries in the suburbs to fill their stomachs, and are sometimes chased by wild dogs and driven away by humans.
But this very wild fox actually became a real player.
……
"If that old man from the Lu family finds out, he'll probably be furious."
At the end of the Song Dynasty, he enthusiastically stroked his chin:
"Wait, it seems I've been stuck in some kind of misconception all along—player selection isn't just for humans."
With the revival of spiritual energy, where there are demons, there must also be ghosts and monsters. As long as the conditions are met and basic intelligence is possessed, anyone can become a player.
For example, Ayan and Azhu, and the mouse servant.
"Sir, will there be other non-human players in the future? Cats, dogs, turtles, willows, and the like?"
If rats can become spirits, then there must be monsters too. Will they become players as well?
Ah Yan opened her eyes wide, her ghostly eyes filled with a chilling aura, as if she found it very novel.
"It's hard to say."
The late Song Dynasty said meaningfully:
"Have you been reading cultivation and infinite flow novels lately? If we use cultivation to understand players, and secret realms to understand dungeons—"
Anyone with spiritual roots can cultivate immortality; even demons can become demon cultivators through cultivation. Anyone with the ability can enter secret realms to obtain treasures.
According to the rules, if different races of players can indeed be developed in the future, the dungeon system can be divided into more detailed categories:
For example, the human race dungeon follows a supernatural survival path, the demon race dungeon follows a spiritual cultivation path, and the ghost dungeon follows a reincarnation and resurrection path...
But that requires a fairly complete ecosystem: the underworld, a cultivation system, and mythological settings.
The amount of scriptwriting required is undoubtedly astronomical, a figure that is unimaginable.
He was deeply engrossed in thinking about it at the end of the Song Dynasty.
The materials for dungeons are endless, and the "shadows" created by humans will never run out.
Relying solely on human players to farm dungeons will eventually lead to a situation where the game becomes unsustainable.
Adding non-human players not only balances the supernatural powers of different races and prevents one side from becoming too dominant and out of control, but also allows her to obtain the skill modifiers she wants.
This wild fox opened up a new world for her.
Thus, Song Mo made the decision he regretted most in his life.
She casually chose to draw a skill.
……
Special Audience Rewards:
...Special players Yang Asha and Ouyang Qiu have been detected to have awakened the following professions: Swordsman (Yellow), Cowherd (Yellow), Doctor (Green), and Wild Fox (Yellow). The scriptwriters have randomly acquired five profession skills.
[Skill 1: Sword Box. Every day at dawn, an iron-quality longsword will spawn nearby.]
……

……
[Skill 3: Cow Language. You are fluent in cow language.]
……
[Skill 4: Healing the Wounded. Instantly restores 50% of the target's health, but consumes 60% of the target's health.]

[Skill 5: Wild Hops Paper. Creates a wild hops trap at any location within a 5-meter radius of the user, which lasts for 30 seconds.]
Once the trap is triggered, the target will use Homa toilet paper and gain the [Sting] debuff, which lasts for 30 seconds.
During the debuff, the target's movement speed decreases by 20%, their concentration is diminished, their pain is doubled, and they will uncontrollably experience an intense urge to scratch their buttocks.
……
Song Mo almost spat out a mouthful of blood on the system notification.
What is this?!
what? !
Tell her what this is!
She painstakingly saved up for five consecutive draws, but what kind of weirdos and monsters did she get?!
