Chapter 4: The First Death and Redemption
Rick took a deep breath of the aroma, then held his breath and half-crouched down beside the Spirit Fruit Flower, leaning against a huge tree, paying close attention to his surroundings. And the wooden stick that he used to hold in his right hand was replaced by his left hand, and now he holds the slightly sharp stone pillar tightly.
Holding on, with 20 minutes to go, Rick glanced at the remaining time the system displayed.
If there is no danger, find a way to wait until it is ripe to exchange for reality, and the points can still be obtained, of course, this requires that the spirit fruit will no longer emit aroma after ripening.
If the aroma still exudes after ripening, you can only exchange the pain for points when the points are insufficient.
"If you're in danger, it's a big deal. Come back after death, I'm a good man again. ”
"Of course I don't want to die or not, I'm afraid of pain." Rick thought silently.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Whizzing
Rick heard the sound and immediately looked intently, only to see a gray squirrel of about 20cm about 5~60 meters away in the distance, constantly rubbing through the grass and running towards the spirit fruit.
Fortunately, with the tail is more than 30cm, it is still a normal mouse, not a gigantic type.
Straighten up and walk to the middle of the route to block the rats' path.
Looking at the gray hairy rat rushing towards him without slowing down at all, Rick couldn't help but turn dark. Little mice are jumping like this, looking down on the handsome guy in the middle of the road?
An inch long and an inch strong, facing the little mouse, he changed to a stick in his right hand, and swept it towards the gray mouse.
The wooden stick has a great wind, and it is about to hit. I saw that the gray squirrel braked sharply on all four feet, scurryed to the left, and easily dodged the wooden stick that attacked him. Teeth bared, and rushed over again.
"Bang"
With one foot raised, the little mouse flew into the air in response to the sound and crashed into the dense grass in the distance, and the weeds were first overwhelmed by the flying rats. He straightened up again, covering the shape of the rat with lush greenery.
Rick retracted his right foot in the air and looked at the grass in the distance with a calm expression. Silently recited in his heart: "One. Two. Three, there is still no response, whether it is kicked and stunned or run away. ”
He looked at the system and showed that there were still 3 minutes left before the spirit fruit was ripe, and he had just calmed down a little and his mood became nervous again. Leaning against the trunk of the tree, straightening your body and waiting for the fruit to ripen.
In the distance, half-meter-tall lush grass blocked Rick's view.
When he couldn't see the place, the gray squirrel that had been kicked away stood up again and was about to rush over again, when he suddenly shook his nose, as if he smelled something abnormal, and immediately contracted his limbs and buried his head in the grass motionless.
With 2 minutes to go, Rick felt the silence of the woods as it had been, and began to think about what to do with the fruit when it rived.
If it still exudes a fragrant fragrance after ripening, it cannot be safely preserved. Not to mention that it takes a full 100 points to exchange the spirit fruit into reality, and it only costs 50 points for yourself, even if it is not mature, it costs 60 points to exchange it for reality. It seems that the spirit fruit can only be exchanged for points.
Thinking of this, he also regretted a little, he knew that he wouldn't kick the ordinary mouse just now, put it in his side, fight it, and kill it with the stone pillar, maybe he would have 10 points just enough to exchange for an immature spirit fruit.
At this moment, at the place where Rick kicked the flying mouse, a small green snake crawled out of the grass, ignoring the trembling gray squirrel next to him.
There is also a bright red dot on the triangular pointed head, which is very bewitching. It is only 30 centimeters long, with bright red spots on its head and a turquoise body, like a beautifully processed emerald. The little snake staggered through the grass and gradually approached Rick, who was leaning against the trunk of the tree.
Rick suddenly felt as if he had been pricked by a needle in his calf, a stinging pain, and then a sharp pain that made him fall to his knees and let out a scream.
Holding back the pain, Rick propped himself on the ground with his left hand, looking at the calf of the right leg of his pajama pants with two bright red dots, around the dots, the skin was already dark, and the black area was still spreading, and the right ankle was already pitch black, and there was no feeling at all, and the black was still spreading towards the knee joint of the right leg.
"Ding, find a mutant poisonous snake, kill it to get 30 points."
The small green snake wrapped its body around the trunk of the tree, sticking out its tongue and waiting for the prey in front of it to die of poison.
Rick gritted his teeth, braced himself on his only conscious left leg, and stabbed the snake with the stone pillar in his right hand.
Sou
Quiet as a rabbit, the snake bounced off the trunk of the tree and headed towards Rick. In the mouth of the snake with its mouth open, the snake letter is constantly swallowed, and there is also colorless venom surging at the two sharp fangs.
Ha, just waiting for you, Rick had already discarded the wooden stick in his left hand, and at this time he grabbed at the little snake that was in the air and couldn't dodge.
Hiss, and when Rick managed to catch it, the little snake bent its head and bit hard at his left wrist.
Rick endured the stinging pain, smashed the snake down with his left hand, which still had residual consciousness, and knelt on the spot, his knee tightly pressed to prevent the snake from escaping. The stone pillar held in his right hand stabbed the snake's head again.
One, two, three. The third blow finally hit the snake's head, and red blood spurted out of the snake's head. The original swinging snake body has also reduced the swinging float.
The stone pillar in Rick's hand kept stabbing at the snake's head. Didn't notice that the system had prompted the baby snake to die, and it gained 30 points.
Rick's vision gradually blurred, his eyes flickered and brightened, and his arm felt unable to use his strength, and he began to lose his call.
Seeing that the snake's head on the ground was completely blurred, and the head and body were also obviously broken. He finally stopped his movements, insisted on using the remaining strength of his body, stood on the ground with his left foot, and climbed the ground with his right hand to crawl towards the spirit fruit that was close at hand.
The vision became more and more blurred, the head felt like it was full of blood, and it was gradually difficult to breathe, although it was only less than 2 meters away from the spirit fruit, but at this time, it was as far away as the end of the world.
Rick didn't care about the time left for the Spirit Fruit to ripen, and he didn't see that his life was in danger as shown in his dashboard bar. He had only one thought in his heart, to exchange the spirit fruit for reality.
Rick gradually climbed into the spirit fruit, the strong aroma emanating from the surroundings seemed to have solved the snake venom, he instantly felt the consciousness of his body return, and he rushed out half a meter at once, and grabbed the verdant and glowing spirit fruit with his right hand.
Feeling the touch in his hand, he hurriedly said in his heart: "Redeem to reality." ”
"The remaining ripening time of the spirit fruit is 50S, and it can be exchanged for reality. Spend 60 points to redeem reality. 20 points remaining"
"Optional Quest 2: Collect 1/5 of the quest and complete the remaining 4 tokens"
"Check that there is an item exchange reality, the item space is open, and the current space size is 1 cubic meter"
Rick listened to the system prompt, his consciousness gradually disappeared, his vision changed from bright to black and white to completely black, and the last remaining consciousness heard the last prompt sound.
"You are dead, and there are 24 hours left in the time to resurrect again."
