Chapter 681: The End of the River
Zhang Qiang sighed and finally compromised.
In this way, after a few of us packed up our things, we quickly came to the entrance of the cave.
Outside the cave, the crab monster happened to block the exit.
Looking at this monster up close, I felt even more disgusted.
But after all, we still have to go out.
I took a deep breath and put my hand on the crab monster.
When the others saw this, they all began to follow my example, although their expressions were a little disgusted.
"I'll count three times, and everyone will start pushing together!" An inexplicable stench began to emanate from the crab monster, and I endured the smell and said to the others.
"Three, two, one! Push!! ”
With a low snort, everyone pushed the crab monster's corpse outward.
It's not the first time we've done this.
It's just that last time it was the snow wall that was pushed, this time it turned into a monster.
I had a blind thought in my heart, but the strength in my hands did not decrease.
Maybe it's because it stinks, maybe it's because everyone wants to get out of the cave quickly.
Therefore, we only pushed it outward four or five times, and the corpse of the crab monster had already been pushed away by us for a distance of about half a meter.
I couldn't help it, so I withdrew my hand and quickly glanced at the others: "Okay! That's enough distance for us to get out! Let's go!! ”
As I spoke, I was already running outside.
The others didn't need me to say anything, and they all quickly followed.
After walking about four or five meters, we finally stopped.
Everyone turned their heads to look at the huge monster corpse.
We didn't feel anything in it just now, but now it seems that this guy's size is really scary.
What is even more strange, though, is that its corpse decomposes so quickly.
From the time we killed the stick worm between its eyes to the time we walked out now, it didn't take more than five minutes.
However, the corpse of this monster was so rotten that it was not formed.
"W-What the hell is going on here?? The rate at which it decays is too exaggerated, isn't it?? Zhang Qiang looked at the monster corpse in front of him that was still decomposing, and couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
I hesitated, but still said what was in my heart: "Perhaps, it has been dead for a long, long time, because it is possessed by metal stick insects, so it has maintained its intact body." Now, as soon as the stick insect leaves, it immediately changes back to its proper appearance. ”
"But...... So what exactly is a metal stick insect? Why is it so effective? Situ Cao muttered to himself with some puzzlement.
I thought about it for a while, and turned my head to look at Liu Gouyu: "Gouyu, how much does your team know about the blue metal stick insect?" ”
Liu Gou was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect me to ask him.
He frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Actually, we don't know much about this thing. You also know that a small team like ours will definitely not dare to be too showy. It was a pathfinder before, and I encountered a few zombies, and after I and a few other brothers narrowly killed them, something like this suddenly came out of their bodies. However, we didn't name it, nor did we call it a blue metal stick insect. That's when we learned that they liquefied and vaporized. But I don't know what it is. ”
Zhang Qiang glanced at everyone and suddenly said, "You say, could this thing be the reason why this game world is infected by the virus?" Or rather, it's a virus in its own right. ”
Although Zhang Qiang has always been arrogant, there are many times when his unintentional words can become facts.
Hearing him say this, Zhao Qiqi and I were shocked.
We both looked at each other, and we both read the same thing in each other's eyes.
Could it be ...... Is this metal stick insect really related to the whole Noblus infection virus? ?
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly ......
Rustle rustle......
Not far away, there was a soft sound from the branches of the trees covered with snow.
"Who??" My face changed, and I immediately leaned in with my lamp.
However......
Nothing!
"Gao Wei? What's wrong? Don't scare me! When Zhang Qiang heard this, he immediately looked around nervously.
Here, there is nothing but a few of us.
Even plants and insects don't exist.
Could it be that I'm thinking too much??
My eyes twinkled, and I glanced at the others: "Maybe it's really me thinking too much!" All right! The fragments are in hand. Get out of here while it's dark! When daylight comes, maybe those white bugs will appear again! ”
When Zhang Qiang heard this, his expression immediately changed.
He nodded again and again: "Yes, yes! I almost forgot about it. So where are we going now? ”
I clicked on the menu of the survival bracelet and looked at it: "We are already near the glacier now, and the third fragment should be in the glacier, to be exact, near the westernmost end of the glacier." Walking along the river all the way west, there seems to be a log cabin where we can go and rest a little tonight, and find a way to get the third fragment early tomorrow morning. ”
"Now, that's all there is to it!! Let's go now!! Situ Cao said, and wanted to go west.
"Wait!" I smiled bitterly and stopped Situ Cao: "We all touched the monster's body just now, let's wash our hands first!" ”
As soon as I said that, everyone else reacted.
What happened just now was so exciting that everyone forgot about it for a while.
After hearing my words, several people ran to the bank of the river and began to wash their hands with ice water.
Although the river is cold, at this time, we would rather freeze to death than be killed by the stench of the thing.
After washing their hands, everyone's hands were numb from the cold.
However, we did not dare to delay.
Turning around, everyone walked along the glacier and headed west.
After about an hour of walking, we finally saw the chalet marked on the map.
The cabin sits at the end of the glacier.
But it looks very shabby.
Yes!!
It's so much more dilapidated than expected.
When we got to the front, we realized that the so-called log cabin was nothing more than a proposed wooden shed made of some wooden planks.
Outside it was in tatters, and it seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time.
But at this point, we have no choice at all.
I glanced at the others: "Let's go!" Go in and take a look, at least it won't be blown by the cold wind. ”
As I spoke, I opened the half-hidden wooden door.
There was dust everywhere, but there was some firewood in the room, and there was also a fireplace.
"Looks like we can barely make up a night here." I turned and said to the others.
