In the desolate birch forest, Zhang Yi stepped on a broken firewood knife and almost twisted his ankle.

After seeing the things under the leaves, Zhang Yi was overjoyed and hurriedly picked up the firewood knife. This is a knife that has been cut but has already rusted, with a handle of about 20 centimeters and a blade of about 40 centimeters, which does not seem to have much lethality.

Zhang Yi took the firewood knife in his hand and continued to walk forward.

From the landing place to the Silent Hills, it is about 800 meters. Zhang Yi walked very slowly, and in this slow process, Zhang Yi spent more time thinking.

That is, at the moment when Zhang Yi picked up the firewood knife, suddenly, in the depths of the desolate forest, there were some small sounds. Zhang Yi has always maintained a high degree of vigilance, and at the same time as this small sound appeared, Zhang Yi subconsciously stopped his steps.

In the distance, the voices continued.

Zhang Yi was holding a firewood knife in his hand, and the strange atmosphere in front of the Silent Mountain Villa made him quite cautious.

This is a real death game, and when faced with the unknown, Zhang Yi does not dare to be careless. Looking around, Zhang Yi finally found a clue behind a tree. In the haystack more than half a meter high under the tree, a pair of shriveled hands appeared.

Is it human?

Zhang Yi's pupils shrank, and for about two or three seconds, Zhang Yi immediately shook his head and secretly exclaimed, no, the hand that appeared under the fallen leaves was not the hand of an ordinary normal person.

A sound of "sand, sand" came along with the cold wind, Zhang Yi shivered, and finally he saw the figure under the fallen leaves, this is an adult man about 179 cm tall, rickety, and his face is rotten, this man was about 30 years old before his death, and he was carrying a broken backpack.

Perhaps it was the breath of Zhang Yi in the air, after the man got up from the grass, his rotten face showed excitement, and a pair of shriveled hands grabbed the bark hard, and slowly crawled in the direction of Zhang Yi with force.

Zhang Yi's heart jumped, and he looked carefully at the face of the man in the distance, and the words "living dead" popped up in his mind.

For a moment, Zhang Yi moved cautiously as if looking at a hound out of the cage, for fear that the living dead in the distance would suddenly burst out and pounce on him.

And just after Zhang Yi found the first living dead, in the grass pile like a cemetery in the distance, another figure crawled up, this person was also rickety, ragged, about 167 cm tall, an adult woman, a white face, there was a very obvious trauma on the right side of the face, golden hair was coiled together, and the face was hideous and terrifying.

After climbing out of the pile of fallen leaves, the two living dead approached Zhang Yi step by step by taking advantage of the trees next to each other in the forest.

Zhang Yi looked carefully at the two living dead in front of him, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the two living dead stared at Zhang Yi firmly, and their bodies moved, firmly blocking Zhang Yi's way into Silent Villa.

Zhang Yi carefully moved his steps, wanting to avoid the conflict and bypass the living dead and enter the villa directly, but after trying left and right a few times, he found that the two living dead did not let go of themselves at all, and a pair of eyes with dilated pupils kept staring at him.

Zhang Yi felt fear for the first time.

There was a strange blue-black aura on the body of the living dead, his eyes were full of unwillingness and anger, and the corners of his mouth let out a cold exhalation sound, as if he was about to knock Zhang Yi down and eat him alive.

Zhang Yi held the firewood knife and subconsciously took a few steps back, the strange atmosphere and strong psychological hints made Zhang Yi a little at a loss, and even had the idea of retreating for a while.

However, among the woods, Zhang Yi's fear did not last long, and the perennial surgical life made Zhang Yi see more death, and when Zhang Yi once again clarified his purpose for entering the game, the young surgeon's emotions calmed down suddenly.

Deathland, which is a real horror survival game.

If you want to go further in this game, first of all, you have to overcome a lot of unnecessary fears, at least you can't be scared by the difficulties in front of you as soon as you enter the game.

When Zhang Yi reminded himself like this, the situation opened up a lot. Holding the hatchet, Zhang Yi once again focused his attention on the living dead blocking the road in the distance.

As a player, Zhang Yi began to think.

Outside of this villa, why are there living dead, and what is the relationship between their death and the villa?

Are they the companions you're looking for?

When Zhang Yi thought so, he vaguely found some game rhythms of "Deathland".

Soon, Zhang Yi found the key elements that could support his next move in that suffocating confrontation!

During the confrontation, Zhang Yi found that although the living dead in the distance were terrifying, their muscles were atrophied, their bodies were broken, and the joints on their bodies were difficult to support them, making movements such as running, jumping and even rolling like ordinary living people.

That is, the ability of the living dead to act, in fact, is not as good as that of an ordinary adult.

As a surgeon, Zhang Yi believes that his judgment will not be wrong.

If that's the case, then you can completely put down the two living dead in front of you. Zhang Yi set his eyes on the backpack on the male living dead, and his heart couldn't help but move again.

Deathland is a horror puzzle game, and it's good that a living dead who stands in the way won't carry a backpack for no reason, and that backpack may well contain the key to solving the mystery of the villa.

It was also at this time that Zhang Yi once again remembered the plot tips given by the system when he first entered the game.

At the beginning, the system told Zhang Yi that the reason why he left the villa was to find his lost companion, could it be that the living dead who suddenly appeared nearby were the so-called "companions" arranged by the system for himself?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yi suddenly became excited, according to the system requirements, in the next 24 hours, he must stay in the Silent Villa, so before he enters the villa, will there be any key clues related to the plot hidden in this forest?

If you don't get it at this moment, won't you have a chance to get it after entering the villa?

For a while, Zhang Yi's attitude became more firm, looking at the living dead in the distance, and walked over step by step, he had already made a decision in his heart, whether the living dead in front of him was his companion or not, he had to obtain the backpack behind the male living dead.

And if you want to get your hands on the backpack, the best way is to put the living dead down.

No normal living person would regard a person who has long since died as his true "companion". What's more, it's in the game.

Since you're holding me back from going back to the villa, let's make a break here. When Zhang Yi thought so, he couldn't help but be shocked again, if these two people were his companions, then these two living dead people who blocked the way were afraid that after they returned to the villa, they would be in danger, so they came to warn?

As a player, Zhang Yi thought about this side of the game's development, but for Zhang Yi, entering the villa and completing the system tasks is the key. Therefore, Zhang Yi didn't think much about it and continued to move forward.

After a short time, Zhang Yi was already holding a firewood knife and came to a place where the male living dead were one meter away.

The living dead smelled the breath of the living, and became more and more irritable, and soon, the male living dead showed their hideous teeth, and a pair of sharp arms left the trunk, like a bony hound, looking at Zhang Yi to kill him.

Judging from the hideous face of this living dead man, this guy didn't regard Zhang Yi as his "companion". Although he had been prepared in his heart, at such a close distance, in the face of the sudden impact of the living dead, Zhang Yi's heart was still shocked.

The shock was instantaneous, and Zhang Yi could feel that his blood was surging all over his body, and his adrenaline hormones were surging. In a panic, Zhang Yi was stunned and blocked with his hand, grabbed the chest of the living dead to prevent this guy from biting him, and on the other side, he raised the firewood knife in his hand and looked at the neck of the living dead and slashed hard!

Among the trees, the male living dead was about 180 centimeters tall, because it had been more than a period of time since his own death, the blood on his body had dried up, his muscles had dissolved, and his skin was loose.

The rusty wood knife made a piercing cracking sound, and it was actually broken in two from the middle.

It was also at this time that the pupils of the living dead shook violently, bursts of blue and black mist emanated from his mouth, and with a click, his neck was broken into two, and he was pushed hard by Zhang Yi and fell to the ground, his body in a different place.

At this time, the sound of the system sounded in Zhang Yi's ears.

"Congratulations on killing a living dead and earning 1 Terror Point and 1 Game Gold."
