Chapter 009: Inexplicable Killing
Two days have passed, and Zhang Curtain, who was originally quite energetic, is already full of dirt, because it rained last night, and he spent it completely in cement.
"I finally know why those people are desperate, this is really not a place for people, even if there are no foreign beasts, mosquitoes and viruses can torture people to death."
Zhang Mu looked at a corpse on the ground, its face was jet-black, soaked in sewage and smelly, as if it had died from the mouth of a poisonous insect.
He was glad he had never slept outside, otherwise the outcome would not have been too far off.
Digging a pit next to him, Zhang Mu buried this unlucky guy, dozens of meters away, and stood guard nearby.
Streaming down!
The slight sound instantly alerted him, and he held the gun tightly, and the bullets in the magazine had been fired.
Burst!
A gray shadow, as soon as it jumped out of the grass, was shot in the head, bright red blood mixed with white brains, scattered on the green leaves, particularly eye-catching.
On the ground, there was a foot-long animal carcass, its head was torn in half, its fur was gray and black, and a pair of sharp teeth were still very sharp.
"Irontooth rat, this is the third one!"
When he was handling the corpse just now, Zhang Mu sensed that something was wrong, because the wound of the corpse was too big, not just bitten by poisonous insects.
In this area, there are still a lot of rats, so Zhang Mu first guessed that it was these beasts.
"The Iron Tooth Rat is a level 1 ordinary beast, one can be exchanged for 10 contribution points, and 15 is enough to offset my guilt for manslaughter."
Zhang Mu felt the reaction of the chip in his arm, and his mind estimated when he would be able to leave this ghost place.
Near the Xuanwu Fortress, they are all monitored by the Sky Eye, and he can get contribution points when he kills strange beasts, which is very convenient.
Zhang Mu looked around and made sure that there was no danger for the time being, before taking out a dagger, which he exchanged for ten contribution points, for self-defense and dissection.
The fangs of the Iron Tooth Rat's fangs contain special elements and are made of a hard material, which can be used directly to craft weapons and be sold to the military for 50 credits.
Credits, like contribution points, are special currencies, the former being mainly used for transactions, while the latter are more precious and have a unique role.
Contribution points can be converted into credits, but credits cannot be converted into contribution points, because every contribution value is a contribution to mankind, and the value content is greater.
Zhang Mu took out the fangs a few times, wiped the smell of blood from his body with medicinal powder, and hurriedly retreated.
It didn't take long for countless insects and ants to appear, and the carcass of the iron-toothed rat, which was fatter than a cat, was digested in less than ten minutes.
This group of original little guys, after thousands of years of evolution, has become a more terrifying group, and Zhang Curtain is naturally as far away as he can to hide.
Soon, only a few bones were left in place, and it was quiet again.
Zhang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, the ants and poisonous insects here are all fat and strong, and he really can't afford to offend.
"Huh?"
At this time, he suddenly felt his body tingle, and subconsciously hid to the side.
Burst!
A bullet, grazing his cheek, hit the tree in front of him, piercing the bark and knocking down dozens of fallen leaves.
Zhang Mu endured the burning pain in his cheeks, quickly lay down, and heard two more groans, if he slowed down for half a second, his head would probably bloom.
"Damn, someone is trying to kill me!"
Zhang Mu's eyes suddenly turned red, no matter who it was, it was going to kill him, he rolled around twice and began to fight back.
In the woods, a figure reacted with some surprise, he had been sure to solve the rookie just now, but he failed.
"Hehe, interesting."
The figure spoke hoarsely, revealing a black steel helmet.
Zhang Mu fired a few shots, completely by feeling, and when he saw that the other party was not moving, he also stopped.
He didn't dare to show his head, it would be a target completely, so he could only wait for the opportunity, hoping that his junior elite spearmanship could save his life.
The steel helmet moved, fast and flexible, like a wild wolf, pulled into dozens of meters in a blink of an eye, his eyes scanned the grass, with a hint of cruelty.
He still doesn't understand why that big man would attack a lowly clone and let him kill this kid.
Perhaps, this kid has some secrets, but unfortunately he can't snoop on, as long as he gets this generous reward.
The blade of grass in front of him moved slightly, the steel helmet lowered his head, a dagger appeared in his hand, and he threw his hand and shot out.
The expected screams didn't appear, and the steel helmet sensed that something was wrong.
Dodo......
Diagonally opposite, there was a fire, and the face of the steel helmet changed greatly, when did this kid run here?
He tried to fight back, but three blood flowers emerged from his knees and chest, knocking him straight away.
"You!"
The steel helmet's bearded face was full of disbelief, he was a veteran, and he was planted in the hands of a rookie.
Poof!
Zhang Mu fired two more shots, breaking his wrist, and then he came out and took out two fangs in the grass ten meters away.
Just now, he used the residual smell on the fangs to attract insects and interfere with the other party's attention, so he was able to successfully fight back.
"It's you!"
Zhang Mu walked up to the steel helmet and immediately recognized this person.
His face was ugly, and he stared at the steel helmet that was not yet dead: "I have no grievances with you, why do you want to kill me?" ”
"People die for money, birds die for food, I didn't expect me to have such a day......"
The steel helmet muttered, the corners of his mouth continued to bleed, he looked at Zhang Mu, his eyes widened, and he lost his breath.
"Man dies for money...... Listening to his tone, someone asked him to kill me, but I'm a clone, so I didn't offend anyone at all? ”
Zhang Mu felt inexplicable, and even a little angry, he couldn't figure out who wanted him to die.
Unfortunately, no one answered his words, and Zhang Mu found a faint light on the steel helmet's arm, and then the chip in his skin became extremely hot.
"Fortunately, he did it first, and killed me at the warning point, not only was there no fault, but he also got all his contribution points and credits."
Zhang Mu's face softened a little, the warning area is still militarized, it is forbidden to kill each other, and the punishment for intentional murderers is very heavy, but no one manages it. If the side defends itself, there is no punishment and all the property of the other party is obtained.
But the other party still wants to kill him at the risk of punishment, which shows that the benefits he may obtain are very large.
Zhang Mu's heart became bitter, there was an inexplicable enemy who wanted him to die, and that person's status was estimated to be unusual, this time the steel helmet failed, and the other party would probably send someone.
"Damn, don't let me know who it is."
Zhang Mu scolded, dissipating the depression in his heart, now he can't figure out what the reason is, he can only passively guard against it, the situation is very unfavorable.
Scraped the things on the steel helmet, and this time he didn't care about the other party's corpse, but hid to the side, letting those little things deal with it.
After this crisis, Zhang Mu became more vigilant, he didn't dare to raise his head too high when he walked, for fear that someone would give him a bullet.
He's still so young and so handsome, he can't just die!
"In half a day, the Gate of the Void will be opened again......"
Zhang Mu counted the time and looked forward to it.
In the first trial, although he wasted 50 points of false value by dying, he still exchanged for the primary mastery of spearmanship, otherwise he would not have been able to live under the hands of Steel Helmet.
If his spear skills are improved again, his self-preservation ability can also be greatly improved.
This is the best way at the moment, because the bonus of the gun to the user is too high, it can reach several times or even ten times, and to a certain extent, even an ordinary person can kill a first-order or even a second-order transcendent person by leaping over the level.
If his marksmanship is good, he can still increase this ratio, even if a third-order transcendent can dodge bullets, as long as his marksmanship is extraordinary, he can still hit it.
This is the power of science and technology, even if it does not threaten the transcendent at a high level, but for an ordinary person like him, the effect is incomparably greater.
