Chapter 177: Under the Abyss (7)
The first encounter between players in Burkner and the Gem Abyss begins with a tragic opening that dooms the region to be stained with blood. However, at present, most players have not seen the bloody scene, and only Wang Lei, who is deep under the abyss, has seen the scarlet picture under this abyss.
Most players have not even seen the shadow of the gem and become a puddle of flesh, which becomes the nourishment for the creatures of the abyss. The system has no idea of recovering the flesh and blood of players who have been smashed into pulp, and the original intact corpse may turn into white light and disappear, but most of the player's corpses that fall under the dark abyss are dead on the spot.
Even if the player falls in large numbers, making those huge rumble rock lizards run for their lives, they are not willing to be stoned to death by players falling from the sky. So for a while, only the corpse exuding a bloody aura was left on the slope of the entire abyss, and Wang Lei who was huddled in the corner under a magic curtain. In front of Wang Lei's eyes, the ground was scattered with things that exploded after the death of those players, ranging from weapons and equipment to gold and silver coins. It's just that most of the equipment is basically either torn apart or directly smashed and crooked after falling from a high altitude, and these things are basically mixed with flesh and blood. It is estimated that even a thief who is greedy for money is not willing to look for a gold coin in a piece of flesh.
Because in order to pull out such a gold coin, you have to grope your hands between the intestines of various eyeballs, find in the fragments of your biceps, and even dig between the red and white fat. At least Wang Lei wouldn't grope for such a corpse for those gold coins, because it was too disgusting.
However, when he noticed that most of the rumble lizards had left, he began to move slowly. Of course, in the process of moving, Wang Lei tried to collect a glowing crystal. But as he tried to get closer to the crystals, a chill emanating from the bottom of his heart stopped him. These crystals that emitted a green glow looked harmless, but there was an extremely fearful feeling in Wang Lei's heart when he swept through his system logs. His encyclopedia-like prop had already given him a reason to pull his foot back in an instant and flee at thirty kilometers per hour.
"Bloodthirsty Nether Crystal! A unique luminous crystal stored in the dark world underground. But in fact, the surface of this crystal does not glow, and what glows is the bloodthirsty ghost worm attached to it! This insect is very sensitive to the smell of blood, but only likes the flesh of warm-blooded animals, and has no interest in the flesh of reptiles such as lizards! So they can live with these animals, but once they encounter the flesh of a warm-blooded animal, they will wake up from their slumber, and they will attach themselves to all flesh creatures that can be attached to until they have completely digested it! Seeing this long piece of system information, no matter how bold Wang Lei was, he didn't dare to fight the idea of these spars, unless he wanted to be turned into a ball of feces by those bloodthirsty ghost worms.
In fact, even if they weren't attacked by these bloodthirsty nether bugs, those Rumble Rock Lizards didn't want to go near these crystals. Even if they rely on the illumination of these crystals to catch their food. But in fact, they are more afraid of the bugs attached to the crystal. If it weren't for the hunger, these Rumble Rock lizards wouldn't have been here at all.
When Wang Lei began to run wildly, escaping from the surroundings of the huge luminous crystals, the original flickering light on the crystals slowly scattered like star chips. As soon as these small green dots fell to the flesh on the ground, they began to glow wildly with an almost dark blue light. The light looks very psychedelic from a distance, but if you see something attached to the light, then you will feel a creepy sense of fear rise from the bottom of your heart. …,
The bloodthirsty Nether Worms continued to devour the corpses of players on the ground, and even mated and laid eggs in the flesh and blood, and one by one the fluorescent eggs appeared on the ground amid the frantic gnawing sound of Si Suosuo. These bloodthirsty nether insects are not necessarily the most terrifying predators under this abyss, but they are certainly the most terrifying insects that Wang Lei has ever seen. In less than a quarter of an hour, the eggs hatched and turned into small insects no larger than the size of wild sesame seeds, which kept crawling out of the eggs and crawling up the corpses scattered on the ground.
When a player accidentally falls from a cliff overhead, his corpse is surrounded by a fluorescent swarm of insects as soon as he lands. Less than ten minutes passed. The player's puree-like body was nothing but scattered bones. These bloodthirsty Nether Worms are the most terrifying scavengers beneath the abyss, as they only take a few hours to turn hundreds of player corpses on the ground into shattered bones.
However, it seems that these insects are not as terrifying as described in Wang Lei's thing, at least they did not take the initiative to attack him. You must know that with the perception of these insects, Wang Lei only escaped from a distance of less than ten meters and had no effect at all, but the bloodthirsty ghost insects who were busy cleaning up the corpses on the ground didn't bother to pay attention to Wang Lei, a living person. They were busy devouring the fresh corpses on the ground, and they didn't pay any attention to Wang Lei, a living creature that was close at hand.
After this faint blue light gradually dimmed, Wang Lei slowly poked his head out from behind a rock. The worms that had eaten the corpses on the ground returned to the crystals to which they had been attached. The glow on their bodies gradually dimmed and returned to its original dark green, but it was much brighter than it had been at the beginning. At least Wang Lei's field of vision was only a dozen meters at most, but now he can see nearly twenty meters. However, thinking of the horror of those bugs, Wang Lei basically didn't have any idea of getting close to those crystals, and he found that whenever a player fell from a high altitude and fell to his death, as long as the corpse fell to the ground for more than ten minutes, the blood and qi emitted from the corpse slowly diffused, and these bugs would recover.
Wang Lei didn't know that it was because the food in the underground world was too scarce, and these bloodthirsty nether insects began to mutate and eat dead corpses. Or because they have slept for too long, their teeth have deteriorated, and they cannot chew live creatures. However, Wang Lei would rather believe that it was the former, because in that case, these insects would basically not pose much of a threat to him, but if the latter was to wait for these insects to recover, then they would become extremely terrible killers. In the face of these bugs, even the most defensive players have no way. Maybe for them, they can kill a bug with just a finger, but when the number of these bugs reaches a certain number, let alone the finger, even a slap is useless. As for burning it with fire. All right! It might be useful if it were a normal bug, but these bloodthirsty nether bugs are not afraid of fire at all, and their bodies are even stronger than normal rocks.
Because Wang Lei collected the corpse of a dead bloodthirsty ghost worm, this insect corpse that looked like an opal the size of a soybean was very hard. With the exception of the wings and limbs, the entire torso is almost as solid as a rock. It was even harder than a small gravel, Wang Lei was stunned that there was no way to crush it with his fingers, and its two teeth were also inserted into Wang Lei's steel sheet, and the fingertips of his hand nails nailed two small depressions on it. Such hard teeth coupled with the terrible hardness of the body make these insects very terrible in Wang Lei's eyes, and the only thing he is glad about now is that these insects are too lazy to move after they are full.
In Wang Lei's eyes, this area that exudes ghostly light is simply the most terrifying area, so after recording the information of these bloodthirsty ghost insects, Wang Lei chose to leave. Continuing his slow climb down the slope, he used a steel drill into the rock at the top of the slope for support. Then a new hemp rope was tied to the steel drill and slowly climbed down the slope. Of course, in the process of climbing, Wang Lei also collected some rock samples, many of which were stones containing gems or other minerals, and Wang Lei found that the further he groped under the abyss, the larger the particles of the gems. When he crossed the slope. When you reach the bottom of the slope, you can still see a dark spot with no end in sight. …,
Wang Lei, who had a rope wrapped around his waist, took out a bundle of incendiary sticks from his backpack, which is very similar to the glow sticks in reality, but unlike the glow sticks, which will only emit light on their own, this kind of burning sticks will leave a trail that emits light in the process of falling. This trajectory will be stored for at least ten seconds, so Wang Lei can have enough time to see the surrounding environment that is illuminated.
"Woohoo!" When the burning rod body turned and fell from Wang Lei's hand, what Wang Lei saw was still a vertical downward cliff. Of course, the shiny rocks on the cliffs that reflect red light contain crystals similar to gemstones, not necessarily gems or metals, but they are certainly reflective things.
"I don't know how deep it is down here!" Wiping the sweat on the top of his head, Wang Lei gritted his teeth and began to climb. He found himself climbing down. The surrounding temperature began to rise gradually, and according to the gem veins he found on the road, Wang Lei felt that there must be magma stored in the ground. After all, gemstones are only easy to find in places where the earth's crust is active, and the formation of this abyss is not related to volcanic activity. In fact, in the past, the Hugodi territory was indeed a volcanic area, but those volcanoes had disappeared in the years, but the underground seams had not disappeared, at least there were a large number of volcanoes around the main city of the black dwarves.
While Wang Lei continued to climb down at the risk, Chen Kai covered his head and looked at those players with a headache. When hundreds of players hang up because of a broken rope. Chen Kai knew that he was in trouble, and it was not a good thing.
"! These guys fell to their deaths! I didn't let them climb the rope, I didn't have the ability to climb the rope, how could I complain about it! Chen Kai's heart was very depressed, in fact, this incident was really not Chen Kai's business, if the player he hired fell to death, it must be his business. But these players fell to their deaths entirely because of their own sake, using a hemp rope as a real-life wire rope and not taking any protective measures at all. Directly covered and covered their heads, they climbed down the rope, and it was impossible to hang in mid-air when they had no strength in their hands. In the end, who can blame him for falling to his death. They all spread their resentment towards Chen Kai, but who was Chen Kai, many of these players wanted to rob Chen Kai when he went to the territory. After only a few months, they had forgotten who had killed them in the first place, and who had taken them in and given them a place to live in the area of Hugodi.
So in the face of the menacing players in front of him, Chen Kai stared directly at the two huge eyes, took a breath slowly, and then shouted: "Get out of Lao Tzu!" A loud voice roared out in the form of a sonic attack with the blessing of the fighting spirit. In particular, the last word was almost like a lion's roar, which made the players standing opposite Chen Kai turn pale with fright.
After a flurry of chickens and dogs, the players almost crawled away. Because they found that if they didn't get out, it was estimated that Chen Kai would let them leave in other ways.
"! If they don't go to the house for a day, they think they are old! Chen Kai spat fiercely at the group of players who were far away, in the territory of Burkner Town, Chen Kai as the lord had absolute authority. Even as long as he is in the territory of Hansting, Chen Kai, who has the title of second-class baron, can be regarded as a relatively high-level nobleman. Although the area of the barony is a little smaller than those in the south. But it is quite rare to have a piece of land north of the Great Rift Valley with so many mineral deposits. Although Chen Kai was not a hereditary baron, he was already a very powerful lord of real power when he owned such a large town and tens of square kilometers of land. So at some point, he really doesn't have to fear the players, because at the moment, although there are a lot of players, it's the aborigines who really call the shots in the game world. Therefore, as long as Chen Kai is in the aboriginal world, he has extremely powerful power and status, and he definitely has the power to crush those players, and this qiē is brought about by his status as a lord. …,
In fact, legally Chen Kai owns a qiē in the territory, and the qiē minerals under this abyss belong to Chen Kai in the law of the Hansting Empire. But it doesn't belong to Chen Kai either. If he is the hereditary lord of the land, then he has full ownership of the land. Unfortunately, he is not a hereditary lord, because his title is not hereditary, and if he does not open a trade route within a year, then he will face extremely severe consequences. Losing territory is the best ending. Because of this, Chen Kai will tolerate other players touching here after hearing the news, instead of directly refusing them to block them with the army.
But sometimes people will gain an inch, and these players are obviously such an example, they did not thank Chen Kai after getting Chen Kai's permission, but hoped for more things. For these insatiable people, Chen Kai used the most direct method to tell them not to daydream.
"Why is there such a big fire?" Guan Yu stabbed Chen Kai's waist with his elbow, although he didn't want to admit it, but he was tall, but he was only slightly taller than Chen Kai's navel.
"A bunch of insatiable idiots! I don't know who is the owner of this place! Chen Kai looked shirtless at the miners who were trying to knock on the rocks not far below the cliff, and the huge piece of purple iron rough was being dug out of the rock wall little by little under the beating of hundreds of people. However, the rocks on the cliff face were too hard, so the progress of the project was not as smooth as Chen Kai expected. When he also has time to wait. Because according to the news that Xu Fei passed back, it would take at least three or four days for the additional floating spell items he needed to be customized. The most important thing is that it will take several days for those two weapons to sell, the auction rules of the Ethia world are not so simple, it takes a while for weapons to be identified, and it also takes time to contact buyers, especially when the two weapons that Chen Kai and they took out are still very strange and have been used by evil undead, and the difficulty of selling them becomes even higher. Of course, Xu Fei and they can choose to sell at a lower price, but neither Chen Kai nor Xu Fei will agree to this, because Burkner Town is very short of money.
Even now that the abyss has been discovered, a place of great wealth. However, none of those gems or huge iron ore could be turned into cash or food, and every qiē needed gold coins to support it. However, Xu Fei was still very excited when he heard Chen Kai's news, and he even posted the news directly on the Internet, because he found that they could use the news to achieve a result of their dreams.
"Jewel Abyss! It's a place where you can dig up priceless gems with just a gentle pry of rock, and if you want to make a fortune, head to the town of Burkner! In addition to the exquisite equipment from the dwarves underground, you can also dig up valuable gems under this abyss, as long as you have the courage to climb down thousands of meters of the underground world, then you can dig beautiful gems below! "This is a small advertisement that appears on the official website, and the language of the advertisement is very simple and even not beautiful enough. But the content is absolutely appealing. In fact, the need for gems in the game has never decreased, both the player and the caster need gems, the player needs gem decorations to please people, and the caster is simpler because they need gems that can be attached to magic as a spell material or ingredient.
So when this ad appeared, those players who saw it at first sight were very disbelieving, and of course there were people who tried to find some gem abyss on the map but there was no place. As for the town of Burkner, someone found it. Unfortunately, there is no such place in the wild in the town of Burkner. However, the skeptical players eventually became convinced by the news that the players began to believe it, and eventually began to move towards the town of Burkner.
