Chapter 12: Strange Tales
The trip continues.
Wu Hao found another car that could be started in a small county town.
Slowly and leisurely drove up the highway.
It's more than ten days in a flash.
The weather was a bit odd, it was supposed to be winter, and the farther north you go, the colder it should be, and the snow should be heavier.
But after entering SD Province, the weather was unusual, and it actually rained misty. There is a certain stuffy feeling spreading throughout the SD province.
The closer you get to Tarzan, the more so.
Along the way, the trees on both sides are lush and green, almost like entering a tropical rainforest.
The roads were somewhat badly damaged.
In the end, Wu Hao had to abandon the vehicle and move forward on foot.
Before he arrived, a voice suddenly sounded.
It's the mysterious being who has disappeared for half a year.
- The base rule rune is inlaid with it
- The system of grotesque legends is opened
- Start adding random treasures, mysterious crypts, fragmented worlds, unknown ruins......
-- Animals and plants are reproducing faster, and the rate of mutation is increasing
- Turn on the random weather system, which can affect the climate of the nearby area on a large scale due to some special things.
ββUnder renovation......
The content of these messages is somewhat surprising.
The basic rune rules have finally been perfected.
Needless to say, this is the foundation that supports the entire transformation system.
Without it, all kinds of grotesque, natural treasures, and mutated monsters could not be born.
The second point is more interesting, the grotesque legend system?
Wu Hao opened his attribute panel, and in a corner, he saw a line of words.
Legendary: Normal
Description: In the city of Xudu and M, your name seems to have been slightly circulated there, and it seems that there are still some creatures who remember your existence.
Legendary runes: Chu (0.1/10,000), not obtained.
Description: This is a very special rune that you seem to have a connection with, and as the legend rises, you may have unexpected gains.
This is the system of grotesque legends.
Seems similar to prestige in the game.
Wu Hao had been curious about how the grotesque had advanced, and he began to speculate that once the ghost's own runes evolved to perfection, he might need to capture other ghosts or get new runes from other places.
After all, in the original "Grotesque" game, many grotesques had more than one core rune.
Some powerful grotesque kings, core runes can even be combined into specific meanings.
Once the power of the runes is activated, it has unimaginable mystical power.
But now it seems. It is estimated that through this similar thing to prestige, it is also possible to obtain certain runes.
For example, Wu Hao just gave himself a nickname, but he didn't expect that after the establishment of the grotesque legend system, there would be such an unexpected gain.
Although he hasn't completely acquired the first character text, he thinks it's just because he doesn't have enough legends.
"So, you need to leave handwriting everywhere in the future? If only 500 years from now......"
Think about it, Wu Hao is secretly happy.
In the third article, randomly add treasures, mysterious crypts, small world fragments, unknown ruins.
That's pretty impressive.
In the "Grotesque" game, there are not only all kinds of dangerous grotesque and mutated monsters, but also all kinds of strange treasures, dangerous and mysterious treasures, crypts and so on.
These are collectively referred to as mysterious events.
In the midst of all kinds of mysterious events, you may die without a place to be buried, or you may have a lot to gain.
In mysterious events, it is not uncommon to encounter the grotesque. It is also possible to acquire rare runes. All kinds of cherished equipment and materials are likely to make you rich overnight.
This is also the most attractive part of "Grotesque".
Although the unknown often represents danger, it is not a big opportunity, but it contains a big harvest.
The rate of reproduction of animals and plants is accelerating, and the rate of mutation is accelerating. Needless to say, this article must be prepared for the opening of the equipment system in the future.
Without a sufficient number of mutant monsters, you will not be able to obtain enough mature mutant organs, which will not only affect the equipment system in the future, but even affect the strength development of various creatures to a certain extent.
For example, human beings, they are completely different from mutated monsters and grotesque in their way of promotion, and they rely more on the mutated organs of various creatures and the runes in the grotesque bodies to continue to become stronger.
As far as he knew, even grotesques would use the mutated organs of living beings to a certain extent to make themselves stronger.
This is also one of the reasons why the contradictions of the grotesque, mutated creatures, and human beings are irreconcilable.
Therefore, don't underestimate this piece of information, this not only means that Wu Hao will face more and more danger in the future, but also means that he is about to embark on a period of rapid improvement of his strength.
His mind is full of grotesque knowledge of all kinds of biological mutated organs.
The last one was the most elusive to him.
Activate the random weather system, and the climate will be affected by special events around you.
Is this any use?
Why do climate and special events have to be linked?
Or is there something in it that he doesn't know?
"Wait!"
"Special events? Mysterious events? β
Relevance ......
Wu Hao was suddenly stunned.
He looked at the scenery around him, and for a moment his mind was churning.
It is already close to the Tarzan area. At the foot of Mount Tai in winter, it should be relatively cool, but the temperature at this time is at least 278 degrees.
There was an inexplicable heat in the air.
The clouds in the sky were fiery red.
The surrounding plants, with their leaves drooping, have little vitality.
Although the ground was very wet, when I grabbed a handful of soil, the feeling of dryness and heat actually came faintly.
This is very unreasonable!
Thinking of the previous narrative of the mysterious voice, Wu Hao instantly thought of a possibility.
Mysterious Event!
There is a mysterious event here in Mount Tai, and the scale of this mysterious event is definitely not small, otherwise there would not be such a large-scale regional climate anomaly.
Moreover, the mysterious event must have been born in the Taishan area, because the closer you get here, the more serious the feeling of heat and dryness becomes.
"Wait, wait!"
"Let me think about it, in the Grotesque game, was there any large-scale mysterious event in the Tarzan area?"
"Sealing the incident?"
"No, the time is not right! It's still in the game transformation mode of "Grotesque", and the time should be in the foggy era before the birth of the grotesque. β
Wu Hao shook his head and frowned.
In the background of the "Grotesque" game, the year when the grotesque officially wreaked havoc on the world, that is, the year when the game was officially launched, is called the first year of the grotesque.
The history of human domination of the earth before that is known as the Old Era.
Between the epoch and the first year of the grotesque, there is a period of time known as the Lost Age, the Age of Mist.
The grotesque was born in this foggy era.
Wu Hao has always guessed that if the unknown being really transforms the world according to the "Grotesque" game, it will also refer to the world background of the game to a certain extent.
After all, this game is designed to be set in the real world.
Therefore, the time period that Wu Hao is in now, if he didn't guess wrong, was in the Fog Era.
Many epochs of historical burial are like fog. It was also the era when the real mist energy was born - that gray mist energy.
"In the Age of Mist, what large-scale mysterious events happened here in Tarzan?"
Wu Hao tried hard to recall his memories, and even checked the background knowledge of "Grotesque" recorded in his knowledge system, but found nothing.
Everything here is unknown.
The background knowledge about Tarzan in the grotesque game is not explained in the slightest.
