Chapter 22: Hiding and Recovery
Mu Lan opened her sleepy eyes, and then remembered what had just happened, and was about to sit up.
Her arm was weak, she struggled to get up, only to feel that her limbs were weak, and she laboriously took out her watch to check the time, she should have been unconscious for a long time.
This sewer is not a place to stay for long, and the Eric people know that scavengers will chase after them sooner or later if they escape through the sewers.
Mu Lan recalled the experience just now, the strange beast was obviously the bait of the Eric, and some of the young adults who had the ability to resist were transferred away from the mountain, and then the large army broke directly into the camp to capture the remaining scavengers.
Thinking of the methods of the Eric people, Mu Lan shuddered, obviously they are all humans, but they treat their own kind like animals, and their cruel style can be felt from the name of the hunting season.
I didn't see Andrew just now, I don't know if he is alive or dead, Mu Lan couldn't help but sigh, she has a good impression of this sincere and interesting little boy, I hope he is lucky enough.
This sewer system is extremely complicated, with many forks in the road, Mu Lan didn't know how many times she turned in her confusion just now, and now she has long been lost.
Not daring to release the spell [Detection], Mu Lan's head still ached faintly, so she could only wait for her mental power to slowly recover.
It is said in "Mental Power Control" that people with weak mental power cannot forcibly cast spells without restrictions, otherwise they will overdraw their mental power, and at least they will be in a trance, their will will be weak, and at worst they will hurt their brains and lead to mental breakdown; Although his spiritual power is very strong among ordinary people, it is still far inferior to that of a real warlock caster, and he cannot use his spiritual power freely like a strong person.
According to "Mental Power Control", a person like himself who can control his mental power to a certain extent by mastering the primary magic of a warlock can only be regarded as a trainee warlock, and he is far from a real warlock, and the hallmark of a warlock is the vast spiritual power, and he can freely dispose of them.
The spiritual magic itself has just touched the threshold, and if he can go back alive this time, he must strengthen his spiritual power and continue to study the spell.
Mu Lan tasted the sweetness of the two skills of [Chaos] and [Detection], this way of invisibly perceiving the world and manipulating others allowed her to make up for her lack of strength, which was the key to her not being killed by Eric like others.
After chewing half of the compressed biscuit and drinking some water, Mu Lan patted her chest, feeling that her physical strength had recovered, and she continued to walk deeper into the sewer.
After walking in the sewers for two hours, Mu Lan found that she couldn't find a way to get back to the ground, but her mental strength had not yet recovered, and she couldn't use the detection spell, so she could only accept the fact that she was trapped in the sewers.
But fortunately, it was far enough away from the factory camp that the Eric people had not given up most of the scavengers to find themselves, and Mu Lan was ready to hide underground for a while, anyway, there was plenty of food and water.
......
Having unknowingly hid in the sewers all day, glancing at the mechanical watch, it was the third night of entering this copy.
While ensuring diet and sleep, Mu Lan was also trying to control the mental power in her body, and finally found that her mental power had recovered.
Mu Lan tried to radiate her spiritual power, and the underground passage was ten meters away from the ground, and she could sense the buildings on the ground.
Of course, it wasn't a place she knew, and she didn't know where she had gone after getting lost in the sewers, but judging by the direction, she was back in the heart of the city.
According to the perception of the spell [Detection], Mu Lan opened a script to eliminate the fog in the game, and she could clearly see the wider range of passages, so she released [Detection] while groping in a reasonable direction.
After walking for a while, Mu Lan finally saw the ladder leading to the ground, and without hesitation, she climbed up directly.
If the sewers were completely safe, she could have avoided the hunting season here, but she heard some strange movements in the passage that forced her to be cautious.
Mu Lan suspected that the alien beast was a mutant animal caused by nuclear contamination, and the sewer had always been the territory of rats, and she had also found several extra-large alien beast rats along the way, and she had killed them in twos and threes, but the rats were social animals, and she would have nowhere to hide if she encountered a group of alien beasts and mice.
Seeing the empty city buildings around her, Mu Lan took a deep breath, life as a caveman was not comfortable, although the sewer did not smell bad, but the air was turbid, depressing and cramped, and now it was finally seen again.
It's night outside, and it can't be regarded as a "day" again, Mu Lan shivered as soon as she came out, the air outside was very cold, there were many holes in the clothes of the scavengers, and the cold air was swishing in.
I couldn't help but muttered in my heart, are these scavengers not talented in weaving, these clothes are ugly and not frost-resistant.
Mu Lan wanted to find a suitable hiding place, so she walked towards the building on the side, while still thinking about what had happened in the past few days.
The task of this dungeon is very simple, it is to survive until the end of the "hunting season", although it sounds simple, but the difficulty is not small at all, the hunting season is organized by the highly technologically advanced Erics, and the Chosen and the local indigenous scavengers are the hunting objects of the Eriks, whether they accept it or not.
The enemy was so powerful that Mu Lan was exhausted all the way over, not to mention the threat of alien beasts.
In addition to the direct hint of the task, this world in ruins is also attracting Mu Lan's curiosity, this is a world rebuilt from the wasteland of war, but with a civilization like Eric that uses advanced technology, Eric and the scavengers are two races from appearance to weapons The generation difference is ridiculous, according to the little boy Andrew, these Eric even live in the sky, but the scavengers are like degraded barbarians, she can't help but wonder, what makes all this?
Mu Lan touched the furnishings in the room, everything in this world is extremely real, whether this is the virtual environment simulated by the main god, or another parallel world that really exists, although the entire wasteland world is bizarre, but all the structures are supported by normal logic, she can't treat this place as just a set program.
Her thoughts are getting farther and farther away, Mu Lan has to think about the existence of the main god and the origin of the world when she thinks about it, she is always used to thinking, this is a habit she has had since childhood, she likes to remember everything she sees, think about the principles of those things, and explore the logic behind things......
Shaking her head, her thoughts were drifting, she was now in a room in an apartment building, and found that the bed in this room was not damaged, so she simply cleaned it up and was ready to lie down and rest for a while.
Just then, a beastly roar was heard in the distance.
