Volume 1: The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss, Chapter 19: Awakening: The Day of Reckoning
By the time Mu Yi woke up, he didn't know when it was, and when he opened his confused eyes, he found himself lying on the bed! The only remaining sleepiness in his body was immediately shattered by the confused unknown. Through the imprint, he learned that it was 7.5 hours before dawn.
He straightened up, his aching chest telling him that the battle before he was unconscious was very real, but by this time his bare chest had been carefully bandaged, and his rod was leaning against the wall on his right, and Remington was still in the imprint on his chest. Everything is so natural, even the wooden stick within reach seems to be put down by yourself before going to bed.
Puzzled, he walked around the room, which was a standard suite in a business hotel, with simple furniture, coat racks, empty wardrobes, and a floor-to-ceiling window that could be opened to see the bustling night view outside.
The business card on the table reads, Black Angel Hotel, Jiushan City, No. 215, Rose Street, Jiushan City. What, you're away from that damn exploration base? What's going on here?
Through the query of the battle records, he found that after he fell unconscious, the battle records were in good shape, his first two attacks only caused 77 damage to Prince Sukanta, and then he was hit hard, and then there was a strange message, the talent cage was loosened, and the talent awakened - Samurai Shodown: After taking fatal damage, you will become a vengeful ghost, and carry out a furious attack on the opponent for 60 seconds, agility +100% within 60 seconds, attack speed +50%, CD a mission world, and weaken for 12 hours after use.
After that, he caused a lot of stick damage to Prince Su Kanta, and there was not a drop of blood reduced, and then he should have slipped away, I don't know who sent him here, maybe Liu.
Mu Yi took a glass of water and began to rest again, because he found out from the map of the hotel that the street next door was Huaishu Street, and he planned to sneak into the man's room on the eve of dawn.
······
At half past four in the morning, Mu Yi was woken up by the hotel's alarm clock, he now felt that his situation was very good, except for the weakening buff that halved his attack, but this did not affect his use of firearms, so he closed the door and walked out of the hotel.
In the middle of the night, Rose Avenue was still bustling, and Mu Yi found that he still had more than 200 US dollars from nowhere, so he chose to take a taxi to his destination.
The No. 3 house on Huaishu Street is a small two-story building with a flat lawn in a small courtyard. Through the information, Mu Yi had already learned that the other party was a spy of the underground people, so he did not comply with the so-called laws and regulations, and carefully removed the glass door of the opponent's living room with a Nepalese saber and successfully invaded the room.
At this time, he heard movement on the second floor, so he took out the M870 stored in the space. This house is not very big, only about 300 square meters of construction area, Mu Yi found the stairs very smoothly. At this time, a skinny uncle in pajamas and holding an M4 had already appeared at the corner of the stairs.
"Who are you! I've called the police! Professor Milton shouted loudly with eyes.
"Lieutenant Johnson asked me to say hello to you, Underground." The voice that came out of Mu Yi's mouth was very cold: "Do the police still have an air traffic control to rob the house?" Reckoning day is coming soon. ”
"Oh! Damn, I thought I was doing a good job. Professor Milton sat down the stairs feebly, "I love this world with blue skies, where everything is peaceful and beautiful. ”
Mu Yi was stunned, the development of this plot was completely wrong.
"You can kill me, I deserve it, but please protect my fiancée." Professor Milton pointed to the Hellfang around Mu Yi's neck and said, "This is what we brought out of the Eye of Hell, where is the passage from the ground to the center of the earth. ”
"Oh my God, is there still such a passage?" Mu Yi was frightened, if this road was opened, then the power of this world would definitely be finished.
"That's what I agreed with Johnson, have you heard of Arna Sakonuseem?" Professor Milton asked.
"The explorer in Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth?" Mu Yi was a little confused by the strange unfolding, "Wait, I don't know the passage and which corpses are recorded in the book." ”
"That's right, the passage is the road that once connected the center of the earth. Those corpses were the warriors of the surface people and the underground people who were fighting, and later in one of the battles, there was an explosion there, and the underground people could no longer invade on a large scale, but they still had a chance to come at the risk of their lives. You come with me," Professor Milton said as he walked up the stairs with Mu Yi. "When I saw this Hellfang, I knew he was gone, and I should go too, and I didn't want to go back to that dark place."
The two went to Professor Milton's bedroom, where Professor Milton retrieved an ancient manuscript from a safe.
"This is Arna Sakonusem, a great explorer, although he died underground after diving into our world for the second time." Professor Milton handed the manuscript to Mu Yi, "Protect my fiancée, I'll go first, tell her I love him." ”
After Mu Yi took the manuscript, Professor Milton swallowed a medicine in his mouth, and soon collapsed back on the bed, unable to breathe.
(Hint: you're exposed to a hidden worldview, Journey to the Center of the Earth.) )
(Note: You've got the manuscript of Arna Sakonusem, a D-class artifact, which you can choose to consume when entering Adventure Space to allow your party to enter the world of Reckoning Day and start the golden side quest, Journey to the Center of the Earth.) )
(Hint: You've got Arna Sakonusem's diary triggering a mandatory quest to protect Lara until the end of the reckoning day, and when Lara dies, you'll lose 10 attribute points randomly.) )
It's amazing, it's terrible! Mu Yi watched a distant red dot appear in his imprint, and found Professor Milton's car key in the room, and drove the navigation to where to go.
······
When the naïve sun threw warmth on the earth again, Mu Yi also rushed to a small courtyard a few kilometers away with difficulty. Because the space did not hand over the map to Mu Yi, Mu Yi could only rely on the map in the hotel and the red dots in the imprint to find the direction.
So it took nearly two hours for Mu Yi to arrive at the destination not far away, which is also a small courtyard. Mu Yi knocked on the door directly.
Laura is a middle-aged woman with still charm, her brown hair hanging down to her shoulders, and she looks vigilantly at Mu Yi, who is carrying a gun and a stick. Because of the damage of the white silk short, Mu Yi's upper body is now wearing a professor's shirt.
"Who are you?" Laura stepped back and prepared to close the door.
"Don't worry about Ms. Laura, I'm Nie Ming, a mercenary from Huaguo." Mu Yi put his hand on the door, "Professor Milton hired me to protect you for a day before he died, and he already paid for it, and she asked me to tell you that he loves you." ”
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Laura pushed the wooden door hard, but Mu Yi's hand remained motionless as if it had taken root.
"I understand your sad girls, but it's going to be a solar eclipse soon, and they're coming." Mu Yi continued to persuade, "You should have a child, he/she is very dangerous on the day of reckoning. ”
"My child!" Laura suddenly calmed down, "I couldn't find Taylor yesterday. ”
"Let's go find it now, I'll protect you." Mu Yi followed Laura into the car.
At this time, the time has come to eight o'clock in the morning, a black star slowly begins to cover the sun, and the eclipse begins! And Mu Yi's imprint is refreshed with a piece of information.
(Main quest 1: Defend the exploration base, failed, universal point -500, 500 points remaining)
(Side Quest: Clean the Factory, 2 people clean 7 Gates of Hell, +700 universal points, 1200 remaining)
(Main quest 2: Survival, survive until the end of the eclipse and return, reward: 500 universal points)
(Main quest 3: Complete the main quest 2 to open, which is extremely difficult.) )
Laura drove the car to Taylor's school, while Mu Yi guarded the area at gunpoint. At this time, Laura looked at Mu Yi, who was like a great enemy, and finally understood that he was not joking, and that something was really going to happen.
At this time, Taylor and his little girlfriend were still basking in the sun in the school square, and in the sky, a large number of distorted pterodactyls spread across the sky from east to west, and the crowd in the square suddenly became chaotic.
Taylor begins to flee with his girlfriend, at which point he finally turns on his phone that has been turned off.
On the other side, Laura finally clarified her son's position and began to sprint at great speed. Mu Yi looked at the endless monsters in the air with a black line. Thankfully, they seemed to have a goal in mind, and the paraptactyl flew straight into the distance, ignoring the panicked people fleeing on the ground.
After Mu Yi and Laura arrived at the park, the continuous distortion of the pterodactyl in the air did not decrease, and the sharp-eyed Mu Yi discovered a new kind of magical beast, which was a pure black giant bird, with a wingspan of three meters, slender claws, a conical head, and a flight speed of at least twice as fast as the aberrant pterodactyl.
At this time, Laura's ex-husband also arrived at the scene, and he brought good news.
"We should get out of the city, my brother Ted has a shelter in the desert outside the city." The ex-husband helped Taylor and his little girlfriend into the car, hugged Laura and got into the driver's seat.
"We're still more than an hour away from where we can also choose to go to the shelter." The car was running on the wide highway, and the ex-husband said "Oriental, who are you?" ”
"Mercenary, someone else pays to protect your former wife." Mu Yi said lightly: "If the situation is not critical, I will protect everyone, but in a critical situation, I will only escort Laura." ”
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became awkward.
Soon the group arrived at a military shelter not far away, but only women and children were sheltered here. Mu Yi watched the family waver and hesitated. A few minutes later, the shelter was full, and the four returned to the car in despair.
"It looks like we can only go outside the city, let's go." Mu Yi held the M870 and guarded the creatures around him, "I hope that house is hard enough." ”
"Let's go, David." Laura held down her ex-husband who wanted to have a seizure, and the group began to flee again.
However, the process was also very unsmooth, first many cultists blocked the car on the road to carry out the mission, and then the vehicle broke down at the exit of the city, and the five had to get out of the car to find other means of transportation.
On the side of the exploration base, a tide of underground creatures continued to rush out of the huge sinkholes and teleportation arrays everywhere, like a black wave sweeping the earth and sky.
