Chapter 399: Goo's Dream
"Isn't it undignified to pierce a big hole in the butcher's neck in this escape game?"
"Am I the first player to stab the butcher to death......"
At this time, Gu Mian had already controlled the character and staggered to his feet, he felt that he should hear the sound of rapid breathing now, but it was a pity that this game did not emit sound.
The blood bar in the upper left corner was rubbed off by the butcher for a short time, and Gu Mian's blood bar was less than half at this time.
If I let anyone cut it again, I'm afraid it will really go to the western sky...... No, he still has an archive.
When a character dies, the most recent save is automatically retrieved, so he won't be able to go to heaven for the time being.
He stood up and looked down at the massive corpse on the ground—no, he wasn't a corpse yet, but he was almost.
There was a trance of fire shining through the hole in front of him, and the huge body on the ground was twitching incessantly, only to see that he was in the middle of his own dirty hands covered with mud between his fingernails to cover the wound on his neck, and his eyes were full of eyes, reflecting the fire that was projected from the hole; Fragments of the kerosene lamp were still scattered around the butcher, stained with blood.
The wide, angry eyes didn't last long before they dimmed, and he became a real corpse, lying motionless on the ground.
Gu Mian quickly squatted down and tried to find out if there was anything useful on the butcher's body.
Sure enough, he pulled out a few useful things from the corpse.
A golden worn-out key, I don't know where it was opened.
A worn-out lighter, this thing used to destroy save points can be found everywhere.
There is also a palm-sized diary.
Gu Mian never knew that someone could write so ugly, time was pressing, he quickly swept the diary in his hand with only a few pages written by the firelight not far away, and roughly sifted out two lines of useful content:
[Our food is getting less and less, and we can only find grassroots to satisfy our hunger, but fortunately, there are four more saints today, and this time I am still in charge, this is the 158th time]
[Every time the saint comes, she always brings some fresh knick-knacks, and sometimes there is even food. 】
This......
Gu Mian frowned.
The first paragraph can show that at least 158 player-controlled characters have lost their lives, and it is these 159 themselves; But he couldn't understand the phrase "four saints came today".
And the second paragraph......
What does this "how many times after each return" mean?
Gu Mian frowned and thought for a while, feeling that the meaning of this sentence might be similar to "My mother will come to cover me with a quilt several times every night"
Does it mean how many times does the saint appear in a certain period of time?
If you read these two paragraphs together, does this diary mean that the saint will come many times a day?
And it will bring a lot of new things......
Thinking of this, Gu Mian's brows furrowed a little more, and he looked at the butcher who had fallen to the ground again.
The faint light shone on the butcher's dirty apron, gilding him with a glow like holy light; Gu Mian's gaze shifted downward, and he focused on the sharp kitchen knife that the butcher had brought out.
It was indeed a kitchen knife, but it was still stuck in the leg of the stool, and there were some uncleaned scraps of meat attached to it, as if it came from the same place as the one hanging from his messy hair.
He reached out and picked up the black kitchen knife on the ground, which was so sharp that it reflected a chilling cold light just a moment; With a kitchen knife in one hand, he thought for a moment before taking the stool leg and the broken kerosene lamp back to the inventory.
I don't know when I'll use it.
After taking everything he could take, Gu Mian turned his perspective to look at the hole on the other side that was glowing with fire.
Now he finally understood why there was a flickering fire coming from the hole in front of him, I am afraid that there is a stove in there, there should be a strong fire burning under the stove, there may be a large cauldron or steamer on it, and there may be a fragrance wafting out of it, Gu Mian didn't have time to imagine how charming the fragrance was.
He immediately manipulated the character towards the entrance of the cave.
The time in the upper right corner was nine fifteen, and Gu Mian walked to the entrance of the cave in less than a minute, and at this time he also saw the scene behind the entrance of the cave clearly.
On the left wall there was a stove with a rather vicissitude-looking cutting board with some minced meat piled on it; At this moment the fire was burning under the stove, and a cauldron that had been smoked black was propped up on it, and something seemed to be boiling in it; The pot was covered with a lid made of wooden boards, which had been smoked with steam at this time.
The orange firelight filled the entire cave, Gu Mian looked away at the wall facing him, and he finally saw what those white flowers were—they were white bones, and the white bones stacked together were densely packed, as if there was no gap between them, and from a distance, they were white flowers.
And there were some clothes piled up in the corner next to these white bones, Gu Mian controlled the task and walked to the corner of the wall to look down, they were all exactly the same white blood-stained clothes, and there were countless pieces.
It seems that this is the "player" who was eaten by them before, Gu Mian didn't want to be one of them, he kept thinking about some ideas in his mind.
And just then, he saw that there seemed to be something of other color mixed in the clothes.
Gu Mian zoomed in his perspective and looked carefully.
The first thing that catches eye is a mirror mixed in with these shabby clothes.
The small round mirror the size of a palm, shining in the glow of the fire, but the surface had fallen a layer of ash; Gu Mian tried to manipulate the character to pick up the mirror, but he didn't expect it to really let him pick it up.
But right after, a panel appeared in front of the screen.
【Queen's Magic Mirror】
[Introduction: "Magic Mirror Magic Mirror, who is the person I want to see the most in this world?"] ”】
[Function: Recite a spell to the magic mirror to view the situation of a random player in the dungeon, and can only be used once a day, for two minutes each time]
Special items?
I didn't expect to find special items in this video game, but even if I did, I couldn't take them out, right?
Gu Mian thought about it as he put his eyes on the pile of clothes again.
I saw that there seemed to be something else down there.
He twisted his eyebrows and groped for a while, and sure enough, he found a lot of things.
There are twisted figures, wallets that can never be fastened, and a card that depicts a man sitting on a stone chair......
And many, many more, all of them were searched from under these messy clothes.
It's worth mentioning that they're all special items!
got so many special items at once, but Gu Mian didn't feel excited; Instead, he looked at the several columns of special items in his inventory, and a great sense of weirdness rose in his mind.
"These things...... It looks like it was left by players who entered this quest before."
However, it is impossible for a player sitting in front of the computer to control the character to drop a special item into the game.
The only people who leave special items here are players who already exist in the computer game...... It can only be those in the save point.
It's just that the people in the save point can't move easily, and these special items are obviously brought by the previous "saints" from the diary, but how can the "saints" have the special items of the players in the save points?
Countless strange conjectures churned in Gu Mian's mind, and finally condensed into two sentences recorded in his diary.
[Fortunately, there are four more saints today]
[The saint always brings some fresh gadgets when she comes a few times later]
Constantly reading these two sentences silently, Gu Mian finally narrowed his eyes.
I understand!
As he thought, he looked at the already weak health bar in the upper left corner, and when the health bar reaches zero, he will die.
When the "Holy Maiden" dies, she will immediately read the most recent save and resurrect at the save point.
But I'm afraid she's resurrected inside the save point.
And judging by the special items in front of you...... As soon as she revives in a save point, she will instantly kill the player in that save point!
As long as the character you control dies once, someone will actually die!
