"Greed": His Silence Was as Steadfast as Ever
"Actually, I agree with the player in the long skirt. This Village Chief Zhu clearly believes that the reason people keep dying in the village is because Awang's mother returned to take revenge after being burned to death."
"Language can lie, but the eyes don't. When he recounted Awang's family's experiences to the players, his eyes unconsciously looked upwards, indicating that he was lost in memories. When he mentioned Awang's family's tragic fate, his eyes began to lower, and his brows furrowed slightly, representing his sympathy and pity. When he mentioned Awang's mother, his pupils involuntarily dilated, his eyebrows rose and gathered, and his mouth opened slightly, revealing a narrow and flat shape, clearly showing that his facial muscles were in a state of tension."
His feelings were genuine.
At this point, Cao Hongbo paused for a moment. "I only did a superficial analysis from the perspective of micro-expression psychology, and I won't go into the specifics. I suppose Xu Xi also made the judgment that the food was not poisonous from the village chief's subsequent micro-expressions. After all, there's no reason for someone who genuinely wanted to ask a master to exorcise evil spirits to poison someone to death before even seeing the evil spirits."
"Moreover, Xu Xi gives me a completely different feeling from the other players. The other five all show a bit of tension, even if they hide it well, but their tense facial muscles, frequent clenching of fists, and occasional pursing of lips still reveal their unease."
"However, Xu Xi not only had a calm expression and steady gaze, showing no signs of tension or fear, but her body was also relaxed and her movements were steady. Her composure during the food tasting clearly indicated that she had extreme confidence in her judgment."
"It's obvious that this player named Xu Xi has a very strong mentality and is confident enough in his own abilities."
Song Yan promptly replied, "Thank you, Mr. Cao, for your analysis. It seems you have a very high opinion of Xu Xi?"
Cao Hongbo nodded. "Yes, he's the only one I've met so far who doesn't seem to be struggling to survive in a dangerous Dungeon. It's more like he's just going through the Dungeon and taking a look around. Even when he encounters danger, it only brings him a little excitement."
The above is what he gleaned from Xu Xi's first three Dungeons; the other party really gave him the impression of being nonchalant about Dungeons.
Leaving aside the First Instance, in the second Dungeon he always waited until the very last moment to make his move, and in the third Dungeon he precisely manipulated people's minds, easily killing three players who had offended him.
[Of course, that's 248!]
[Although your analysis is excellent, and your praise is even better, I'm sorry, but I still have to criticize you when necessary.]
[Knowing full well how amazing Xu Xi is, the Production Team still deliberately sabotaged him. Ugh, despicable!]
Looking at the barrage of curses and insults in the live chat, Cao Hongbo couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't know what this idiot Production Team was thinking. Such an outstanding player would be a new hope in any country, yet no one in the higher-ups seemed to care.
Song Yan, unaware of Cao Hongbo's thoughts, shifted her gaze to Ge Ying.
"I wonder what Mr. Ge's opinion is?"
Ge Ying smiled and said, "Since Teacher Cao has analyzed it from a psychological perspective, then I'll start with the background of the Dungeon."
"These seemingly self-evident Dungeon often stem from human nature: pride, envy, anger, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust. One or more of these Dungeon will always be present."
"I don't know which category this Dungeon falls under, but judging from the rumors Dungeon, this village clearly fits the stereotypical image of a remote rural area where the villagers have little education and simply believe what they think is true."
"And this kind of ignorance is most likely to cause many tragedies."
"I won't comment too much on the players' performance; Teacher Cao's analysis was excellent."
"Also," Ge Ying remarked jokingly, "I've been following Xu Xi for a while now, and I only have one comment: his silence remains unchanged."
[I'll go easy on you since you call me Boss Xu Xi.]
[ At Xu Xi has someone to keep him company now. I really didn't expect that someone with such a cheerful name would be just as bad at muting himself as the boss.]
[Damn it, where do I even complain to the Production Team? Let's kill this show before Xu Xi dies!]
Song Yan dared not interact with the various comments on the screen, fearing she would suffer the same fate as her colleague who was verbally abused and broke down.
"Thank you for your analysis, Mr. Ge. It's clear that you really like Xu Xi as a player."
"Let's see what happens next. We'll see what kind of performance the players deliver."
--
Xu Xi randomly chose a direction, and before he had walked far, he suddenly heard someone call his name from behind.
"Dude, wait for me!"
Xu Xi turned around in confusion and saw the Young Man in a Duckbill Cap quickly catching up.
After running to Xu Xi's side, the Young Man in a Duckbill Cap grinned and said, "Let's go together, two people can help each other out."
Having experienced two multiplayer Dungeons, this was the first time Xu Xi had met someone so outgoing and familiar.
He was still pondering how to respond appropriately, but the other person seemed certain he wouldn't answer, and continued speaking to themselves:
"The guy in the suit is too shrewd, and that tall, skinny guy is too gloomy. I'm not a good match for either of the girls, so only you, buddy, are left. You're not very talkative, but that's okay, I love to talk."
If the person in the baseball cap could see the Livestream Room chat, he would definitely find that most of the comments were asking him questions.
Xu Xi is easy to get along with? Are you serious?
The graves of the three people who thought he was "easy to get along with" are now overgrown with weeds.
Xu Xi: "... Hmm."
I don't know how to reply, so I'll just reply with "Mmm".
Anyway, his intuition told him that this person wasn't as friendly as he appeared.
The Young Man in a Duckbill Cap didn't seem to care about Xu Xi's indifference at all; just as he said, he could talk to himself.
"Dude, which Dungeon are you in? This is my sixth. I don't even know if there are any Items in this Dungeon."
"This Dungeon looks tough; the map is bigger than Dungeon I've been through before..."
Xu Xi ignored his babbling and turned her head slightly to look in a certain direction.
He never expected that he would end up in the villagers' fields.
The Young Man in a Duckbill Cap noticed that Xu Xi was staring intently in a certain direction, so he followed his gaze.
It was a field of exceptionally vibrant wheat, the golden ears swaying gently in the breeze. It was a perfectly normal sight, but it stood out starkly against the backdrop of green wheat.
"How come only this area is ripe?" The Young Man in a Duckbill Cap, slightly surprised.
Looking around, I noticed a few villagers gathered on the edge of a field not far away, so I walked over there.
He decided to go and find out more.
Xu Xi followed behind him without hesitation.
Any strange occurrence within the Dungeon is a clue to them.
