1206 Bloody Trail
The rain stopped the next morning.
Lin Chi, who was going to act at night and rest during the day, was forced to sleep all night. When he awoke, he saw that the sunlight had already entered the room through the window, and Moria was leaning against the corner, avoiding the range of light.
"Wait for me here, I'll search the neighborhood first." Lin Chi rubbed his eyes as he spoke: "If someone else comes, don't kill them." ”
"Hmm." Moria nodded obediently.
Since vampires can't see the light, Moria can't even go out now, so she has to stay in the cabin.
However, in this kind of passerby bureau, even if you don't bring an entourage, there seems to be nothing to be afraid of......
With a flag in his mind, Lin Chi walked to the main entrance of the wooden house, stepped on the door panel that had been kicked open last night, and returned to the sun.
The sky after the rainstorm was unusually clear, like a washed canvas, and not a single cloud could be seen.
The mud under your feet was still very wet, and every time you stepped down, there were a lot of mud spots on your boots.
Lin Chi opened the list of players and looked at it, only to see that fifteen people had already left. It seems that even on the night of the pouring rain, the players did not stop killing.
Of course, six of them did not die at the hands of the player. It should have been encountered by some monster, or rather...... The hidden "prey" in this forest.
Lin Chi checked around the wooden house, but found no other houses nearby, and no hidden basement.
As soon as he entered the nearby dense forest, he noticed something unusual:
The trunks of several trees were scarred, and at a height of almost three meters, the bark had been neatly cut open, looking like marks from claws or teeth.
Lin Chi lowered his head and brushed aside some of the fallen leaves, only to see a huge paw print appearing on the ground.
The claw was about the size of an adult man's torso, and the claw marks left on the fingertips were fifty centimeters deep. If you are stabbed by this kind of claw, no matter how muscular a strong man is, I am afraid that he will be stabbed in the heart.
- What kind of creature is passing through here?
Lin Chi thought back to when he went to bed last night, he didn't hear the sound of the monster, and he didn't see anything.
The rainstorm became the best cover for the monster, and it also allowed Lin Chi to spend the night peacefully. Even with a powerful retinue like Moliya and a dark sword protector, Lin Chi didn't dare to guarantee that he would survive the attack of such a monster.
"Is this really a hunting ground? How strong do you have to be the guys hunting here? ”
Noticing the strength of the monsters in the woodland, Lin Chi took out his god leaner badge and used the upgrade ability of the badge to "touch" the running skill of the dark sword to LV3:
Special Skill: Touched (Level 3).
Once activated, increase your running speed by a factor of five until you are out of sight of enemies.
took out the dark sword and held it in his hand, and received the blessing of "touching", and Lin Chi's sense of security also improved a lot.
- Although the goal of this game is to help Moria become a Daywalker, there may be another "side quest" to try:
Lin Chi left the woodland where the monster passed, returned to the front of the wooden house, took out the observer's contract, and read the text on it:
The 'betrayer' of the Royal Guard, on death row in the hunting grounds.
He was loyal to the royal family all his life, but he ended up like this.
His will is as strong as steel, and he will never admit to slandering himself.
Two days later, at noon, he will be secretly executed.
Even if he was beheaded, he was still the strongest backing of the royal family.
……
After reading this text, Lin Chi put the contract back in his backpack. The boss-level followers that can be recruited in this game are already clear at a glance.
Recruiting the tameled member of the royal guard would have to find out the location of the secret execution within two days, and then find a way to rob the prison.
Needless to say, the royal guards and executioners are also very difficult opponents. However, for Lin Chi, two days was more than enough.
In order to ensure that this temporary hideout would not be in danger, Lin Chi first searched the vicinity. Aside from the marks left by the monsters, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual about the area around the cabin.
On the side of a winding forest path, Lin Chi found a very old wooden street sign, the text on it was almost worn out, and only the letters "Hel" could be seen.
"Is it HELP?"
This idea only appeared for a moment, and it was directly ruled out by Lin Chi: no one would be idle to carve this kind of word on the street sign.
Obviously, the "Hel" was supposed to be the prefix of a place name, but since the street sign was already on the ground, it was impossible to make out where the arrow on it was pointing in the first place, and it became much more difficult to find this place.
- You might be able to find it by walking along the path?
Lin Chi thought about it, but decided to go over and take a look, took out the dark sword in his hand, and slowly walked forward along the path.
The map of "War Paradise" can be described as varied, even if you read the strategy, it may not be a smooth ride, as an "experience school", Lin Chi, in order to avoid destroying the novelty of each map at the first sight, did not read any strategy.
Walking along the muddy path, not long after I walked out, a row of footprints suddenly appeared on the road.
This time, the size of the footprints looks like they should belong to humans. The walking direction is also the same as that of Lin Chi, and they all follow the road to the north of the woodland.
- Maybe it was left by another player?
After seeing a severed hand in front of him, Lin Chi dispelled the thought just now.
If the player is killed, the corpse will not remain in the game. It's definitely NPCs who die here.
Even if it was the player's retinue who died, the chances of that player escaping were slim to none:
A long trail of drag stretched down the path to the front, interspersed with blood and fragments of intrails.
A disgusting stench spread across the path, and Lin Chi followed the traces and walked forward slowly, and a creaking sound reached his ears.
Seeing the drag trail turning into the dense forest next to him, Lin Chi opened the skill bar, ready to open the "touch" skill at any time and run away directly.
Then, he slowly walked into the dense forest.
The light around them began to dim, and a large number of flying insects wandered through the forest, feasting on the broken flesh of their victims.
Crunch...... Crunch.
The disgusting sound became louder and louder, and Lin Chi poked his head out from the side of the tree trunk and looked at the scene behind the tree.
Click!
There was a crunch, and the teeth crushed the leg bone.
A man in rotten armor with a blurred face was crouching on the ground next to the ground where even God didn't recognize the original appearance of minced meat, holding a leg and gnawing on it.
Although Lin Chi didn't make the slightest sound, the guy who was eating the corpse slowly raised his head, his bloody face under the helmet was revealed, and his yellow eyes like light bulbs stared at Lin Chi's gaze.
Five seconds later, the guy who was "eating" opened his mouth and burped:
“Fu……”
