Volume 1, Ghost Town of the Bone Forest_Chapter 102, Stone Box
A fart actually hurt me! It's funny to say, but I couldn't laugh at all. The guy was like a hound, constantly approaching.
I didn't dare to move, so I took out a beast bone dagger to defend myself. Up close, this guy in front of him is really a big guy. The whole body is full of muscles, and the whole body is full of power. Compared to it, the other white-faced weirdos are like malnourished little turnip heads.
It seems that its vision has not changed like that of humans, and I have no light here, so it cannot see me. But I slowly approached, and I wondered if I should strike first, and stab it to death before it found me. But I quickly dismissed the idea. Even if I had a chance to stab it to death, I would have exposed my tracks, and the remaining white-faced monsters would swarm and tear me to shreds in a matter of minutes. So, instead of making a move, I picked up a rock and threw it forward. The stone cut through the shadows and landed in the distance, immediately catching the attention of the white-faced monster, who jerked back and looked in the direction where the stone had fallen.
I took advantage of this opportunity to hurriedly shift my position and fled to the other side of the shadows. Kind of escaped.
The Witch fiddled with the stone box for a few moments, but nothing seemed to be going on, and in anger it slammed the table, causing a group of white-faced freaks around it to tremble and retreat.
At this moment, the burliest white-faced stranger walked over with a stone, stood beside the corpse witch, and half-crouched and whispered a few words. The Witch took the stone I had thrown out of his hand and looked at it, then turned his head, his bare black eyes glancing around.
My heart suddenly chuckled, wasn't it discovered? That white-faced monster is so smart? The corpse witch clutched the stone and cried out loudly, and the next moment, all the white-faced monsters around him stepped back one after another, and then looked around with a fierce look.
They seem to be looking for me!
The bad premonition was magnified in an instant, but it was not rash yet. Maybe I made a mistake, or I took a calm breath and looked at the situation.
Hearing the Witch's command, the white-faced monster slowly dispersed in all directions, lowering his head like a hound. And the search circle soon expands to the edge of the shaded range. Obviously, these guys are looking for me!
I frowned, saw the opportunity, and continued to retreat into the shadows. The whole heart is getting more and more nervous, being rounded up by a group of monsters, and there is no difference between fucking and sending him to death. The shadow was the last barrier between us, but apparently it wasn't going to protect me well!
The first white-faced monster had stepped into the shadows, but hadn't seen me yet. As long as I keep a distance between myself and them, they won't be able to see my face.
But the smell was a fatal wound, and I smelled of blood from the fight with the mudfish. It's fine to be separated by a few meters, but once you get very close, it's easy to be exposed.
I tried to retreat further, but it didn't take me a few steps before I touched the wall behind me, and there was a flame burning in the recess in the wall, and there was a shadow between the two flames. This is where I last hid!
Almost exactly as I had been when I had dodged the giant mud fish, I was once again cornered. Pursed his lips, he really just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth.
The white-faced freaks around me had narrowed the encirclement, and they were very close to me. As if right in front of me, I clutched the beast bone dagger tightly.
"Whew!"
The white-faced monster closest to me seemed to smell my body, and suddenly howled loudly, which immediately attracted all the white-faced monsters around me, and all rushed towards me. There's nowhere to dodge anymore, and I'll have to rush out to get a chance to escape!
Holding the beast bone dagger, he pounced on the nearest white-faced monster, and used all his strength to knock the white-faced monster to the ground, and then raised the beast bone dagger and stabbed the white-faced monster in the throat. The beast bone dagger pierced the white-faced monster's neck, and then I turned everything sideways, opening a gaping hole in the white-faced monster's head on the spot.
I just wanted to stand up and run out, but I didn't expect the white-faced monster who was stabbed in the head to grab my arm and pull me down! The white-faced monsters around heard the sound and immediately pounced.
I pounded the guy's arm like crazy, but it was so tight that it wouldn't let go. And as time dragged on, my chances of escape quickly diminished. The white-faced freaks had closed all the gaps, and then two white-faced freaks pounced on me and pinned me to the ground, and I tried to push them away, but they were much stronger than me. Pressed on me constantly trying to bite through my neck.
"Damn, get out of here!"
I barely managed to save my life, pushed away a white-faced monster and got to my feet and ran wildly, but before I could take a few steps before the monster grabbed me from behind. Then he slammed me to the ground. Raised his fist and punched me hard in the head.
I was dizzy from the beating, my head was buzzing, and my limbs couldn't exert my strength. I tried to get up from the ground, but as soon as I stood up straight, I stumbled and fell down.
Everything I saw was ghosted, and the buriest white-faced monster appeared before me, lifted me up from the ground, and yelled at me. The white-faced weirdos all around me were screaming, and a few of them even tried to tear my body apart.
It's really the end of it, and I definitely won't survive.
It's not that I'm pessimistic, it's a miracle to be able to live in this situation! The burliest big guy grabbed me by the neck and pulled me in front of it, vaguely seeing a mouthful of yellowed teeth in its mouth and a foul smell. The sharp, stone-sharp teeth came to the side of my neck, and the tips of the teeth had touched my neck, as if they had been pierced into the skin by a knife. I have no doubt that it will bite off half of my neck in one bite.
But at this moment, a strange roar suddenly came from behind, and the white-faced stranger who was about to bite my neck also heard the roar and slowly lowered me.
My head was clearing, but the dizziness was still very strong. The white-faced monster grabbed my arm and dragged me to the corpse witch, and I lay on the ground, unable to escape, just to see what they wanted to do.
The Witch of the Dead came over like an old woman, and she walked up to me with a black face, and looked down at me. Unlike the white-faced monster, the eyes of the corpse witch are not pitch black, but more blue, like pure glass, and even if you look closely, you can see my shadow reflected in its eyes.
It looked at me and reached out and stroked my hair, as if it had been plucked by some withered branch.
"You, Human......"
My good boy actually heard this guy speak, although his voice was unusually hoarse, and his words were slurred. But I heard it anyway, and I was really surprised.
"Can you speak?"
I asked, surprised.
"Human, help, let you out of ......"
It said to me again in a staccato voice, let me help? How can it help? But when I heard that I might be able to leave alive, I woke up and stepped back, slowly standing up under the wary gaze of the white-faced oddities.
"You, do me a favor...... Open it...... Box ......"
It pointed to the stone platform and said the box in its mouth, which instantly made me react, this guy should want me to help it open the stone box. I don't know what's going on, but it's better than being torn apart by a bunch of white-faced weirdos. He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take a look." ”
Procrastination is temporary, and besides, I'm not a bad person, and I haven't done anything hurtful. Master Zu will definitely bless me, the corpse witch slowly walked to the stone platform, and I followed behind it, and only then did I see the whole picture of the stone platform clearly. This is not a simple stone platform, round, about three meters in diameter, but not a perfect circle, with quite a few potholes around the edges. And on the surface of the stone platform, it turned out to be a huge gossip map, although I know little about gossip, but I have never eaten pork but still seen pigs run, this gossip map is very complicated, at a glance it is not small. And near our apex, there is a palm-shaped groove that seems to be pressable.
