In the dark cavern, you can't see your fingers, because the environment is silent, and the sound of "popping" water droplets dripping from the rock wall is particularly clear.

In this battle, Zhou Jian's team won a miserable victory.

Zhou Jian single-handedly killed the two poisonous spiders, and at the same time cooperated with the Golden Retriever Lion King to drag the three scarab warriors, until he killed the opponent and joined Zhou Jian, he worked together to kill all the remaining monsters.

After the battle, Zhou Jian's health was less than one-fifth, his right arm was fractured, a spider's broken foot was inserted into his chest, and there was a deep wound on his thigh.

The pain in "Gods and Demons 2" is much clearer than in "Gods and Demons 1", the spider's feet are covered with barbs, and at this time, these barbs are buckled into the flesh, and Zhou Jian hisses in pain.

Li, who applied herbs around the wound little by little, both of them had some night vision, but Li's eyesight was better, and the night was almost no obstacle to her.

After applying the herbs, he slowly grasped the end of his foot with his slender and white palm.

Zhou Jian tore off a strip of cloth to put in his mouth, and nodded to Li in the dark.

After getting Zhou Jian's approval, he didn't hesitate to leave his hand, and slammed it, and a stream of blood arrows burst out with minced flesh, and in an instant, Zhou Jian almost bit the cloth in his mouth in pain, and his forehead was already covered with cold sweat.

Sprinkle hemostatic herbs silently, and then wrap bandages around and around, it's not easy to replenish blood in "Gods and Demons", recovery items such as blood bottles and healing drugs have very little blood return, and there is also a cooldown time, and the bandages that can only be used in a non-combat state have a little more blood return, but the same wound can't be reused, so it's good to team up and upgrade, or to brush the boss, you must bring a priest.

In addition to the priest, there are also some babies who have blood replenishment skills, if there is neither a priest nor a baby, then you can only go back to the city and ask the NPC to heal.

And in "Gods and Demons 2", it seems that both replenishing blood and healing wounds have become more difficult than in "Gods and Demons 1".

At this time, Zhou Jian's face was as pale as paper, he smiled reluctantly, gritted his teeth and said, "It's very ...... You're very skilled, you've been dealing with wounds a lot, right? ”

"Yes."

After wrapping the bandage, after connecting the broken bone of Zhou Jian's right arm, because he had already experienced a heart-wrenching pain just now, this time Zhou Jian didn't even snort.

Li began to bandage the wound on Zhou Jian's leg again, her movements did not stop at all, and after removing Zhou Jian's leg guards, Li tore his trousers again.

The fashion in the game is not much stronger than in reality, and it is torn directly to the root of the thigh from such a tear, Zhou Jian only felt that his lower body was cold, and he instinctively wanted to stop it, but seeing that he was expressionless and only focused on the wound, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, when do you care about this, and the other party is just an NPC.

After dealing with Zhou Jian's wounds, Li briefly dealt with his own injuries, and then said, "Master, rest." She said as she took off the longbow from her back, apparently to keep vigil.

Zhou Jian has been tossing and turning around these days, and at this time he has experienced a big battle, and he is covered in injuries, and now he is indeed sleepy, but he can't sleep by himself, and it can't be said that he has a girl keeping vigil, uh...... does the NPC in "Gods and Demons 2" need to sleep?

He remembered the room he had left when he saw a bed and, apparently, they needed to sleep. It's a speechless setting.

Zhou Jian said: "I'm okay, you go to sleep first, I'll keep it for a while, it's really okay to let Xiaojin guard it." Zhou Jian said this and glanced at the golden lion king, but found that this guy was lying on the ground on all fours and falling asleep, and the most speechless thing was that it was still drooling in its mouth.

Zhou Jian was completely petrified in an instant, which ...... Why does the baby have to sleep these days? He clearly remembered that Xiao Jin didn't have to sleep in "Gods and Demons 1".

"It's okay master, I'm not sleepy." Sitting cross-legged next to Zhou Jianjian, the distance between the two was very close, Zhou Jian couldn't help but turn his head to look at the beautiful face of the chapter, she was like a snow lotus blooming in the dark, full of mystery and ice and jade aura.

There is no superfluous expression, but along the way, she is the most reliable partner, and will always shoot the most critical arrow when she needs her most.

At that moment, an inexplicable feeling surged in Zhou Jian's heart, "Li, can you answer me a few questions?" ”

"Master, excuse me."

"Uh...... Actually, you don't have to keep calling me master, is the woman who attacked us just now your clansman? ”

"Yes, she's a fallen."

"The Fallen? Is it controlled by monsters? Zhou Jian remembered a trace of pain in her pupils before leaving, and she must have been very sad to attack her clansmen.

Li shook his head, but then fell into silence, in Zhou Jian's impression, Li had never violated his will in the past day, as long as he asked for something, Li would not ask for the reason, and immediately execute it as an order.

At this moment, Li's eyes seemed to be a little confused, and she quietly looked at the puddle of water dripping from the rock wall in front of her, and was speechless for a long time.

What was she thinking?

Zhou Jian shrugged his shoulders, and was about to say that I didn't ask, when Li's voice sounded in the cave, very light and indifferent, but it seemed to be sad.

"We are...... A people in captivity, and the Fallen want to use their own power to break the bondage. ”

Captivity? Zhou Jian was stunned in his heart, his first thought was that when he was in Zhoujiazhuang, the villagers surrounded a group of livestock in a circle and fed them food, they only lived in a small and dirty space, and the only chance to be free was to wait until the day they were slaughtered.

"What do you mean?"

"We are the inhabitants of this cosmic plane."

Aboriginal people? Zhou Jian grew his mouth, "You guys are ...... Life? ”

Away did not answer.

However, in an instant, Zhou Jian still understood, a conjecture that made people's hearts panic - NPCs were actually the original inhabitants of the god and demon plane, that is, the life condensed by spiritual energy.

Later, they were captured by invaders from the Alien Universe and imprisoned in the game of Gods and Demons they had built to serve the trialists...... They are not computer programs, they are living beings as alive as themselves. It's just that the form of life is different!

It's no wonder that the surnames of NPCs in "Gods and Demons" are so distinct, they are no different from real people, but ...... Thinking about it carefully, in "Gods and Demons 1", most of the NPCs have no low mood, but in "Gods and Demons 2", the NPCs that Zhou Jian has seen along the way are all lifeless, as if there is no hope in their empty eyes.

Captive people...... What is their fate?

As if to understand Zhou Jian's thoughts, Li said: "We are kept in captivity in this world, full of death, barrenness and desolation, the land here does not grow crops, wild beasts choose people to eat, because the limited food has to be saved for the warriors guarding the tribe, so people often starve to death." ”

"Warriors guard the tribe and may die at any time, all members of our tribe will be branded from birth and cannot leave, our mission is to cultivate followers for the trialists, to assist them through this and subsequent trials, until the ninety-nine trialists are successfully sent away, the ninety-nine fires are lit, and the tribe will be free to leave this cursed land."

Zhou Jian was stunned, he didn't expect the Shadow Tribe to live in such a sinister environment, no wonder the people in the tribe didn't seem to have any life.

Ninety-Nine Trials...... Zhou Jian remembered that after signing the contract, when the contract burned, he saw a large dim circle like an eye, and if he thought about it carefully, there were about a dozen of them that were lit, presumably it was the so-called fire.

I am the 128th Trialist, but 111 have died, which means that I am actually only the 17th Trialist, and I am not sure if I will survive...... Zhou Jian took a deep breath, and a strong sense of confusion surged in his heart, although he knew that "Gods and Demons 2" could bring him great strength, but he didn't like to be involved in such a life-and-death battle, only 16 out of 127 people survived, what kind of small proportion is this?

Although we know that the greater the danger, the greater the reward, but if the stake is their own life, and the chance of winning is slim, how many people will gamble?

Zhou Jian is a motivated person, he loves peace, yearns for a colorful life, and occasionally experiences some exciting adventures is a kind of fun, but he does not want to get involved in the conspiracy smell of gods and demons.

He looked away, this tribe ...... Only 16 of the 99 trials were completed, and there were 83 trials remaining...... According to the old lady, the Shadow Clan had been guarding for thousands of years before 16 successful trialists came, so wouldn't the remaining 93 trials mean that they would have to wait for another 5,000 years?

5,000 years, and the history of China is only 5,000 years. Thinking of this, Zhou Jian gasped, the old chief will be like that at the age of three hundred, I am afraid that the lifespan of this clan is three or four hundred years, that is to say, their generation, their descendants, great-grandchildren, and great-great-great-grandchildren have no hope of being free.

They have to survive until the end of their lives in this harsh world, enduring hunger and wild beasts, with no hope and no end...... Zhou Jian didn't know what it was like when he looked at the departure again, he remembered the tears in the moment when the old chief turned around when he took him away.

"Away, Chief Marco...... It's your ......"

"Great-grandmother." Li hugged his knees, and his voice carried a hint of sentimentality, "In order to ensure the success of the trial, each tribe will select the most talented shadow feather, and I have the ability to control the ice and fire dual magic arrows, so my fate has been like this since I was born, from the day the contract is signed, the curse in my blood will be lifted, and I will follow the master until the trial is successful, or I will die in battle." ”

"If the follower has a different heart and betrays the master, then the contract will be invalidated and the ignition will be extinguished."
