Chapter 42: Seven Months

After the "hell trip", Lu Ran gained a lot.

Hell is real, and it's a vast, huge, multidimensional world...... Lu Ran, who has obtained the map, if he can get the "Hell Pass" next time, he will be able to directly teleport to [North Town].

The biggest reward of this trip is that the items purchased in Hell can be brought back to the real world smoothly.

The "Black Hook Jade Ring" is similar to an ordinary black agate ring, and it will not be eye-catching when worn on weekdays.

The gloves made of Cerberus skin look like a pair of black leather gloves on the surface, but there are fine hairs on the surface of the gloves, and the gloves have a certain 'temperature', which can accelerate the blood flow in the hands when worn.

After a simple test, Lu Ran estimated that he could increase his attack speed by about 15%.

In addition, there is an invitation about the mystery office.

Lu Ran, who was in his third year of high school, did not apply for the job for the time being, and it was one thing to have concerns.

What's more important is that the academic pressure in the third year of high school is too great...... While keeping up with his studies, Lu Ran needs to fulfill the rule of "hell murder" with a deadline of 'three months'.

Regarding Lu Ran's choice, Sister Ma Lin from the infirmary expressed her understanding and asked him to come back for an interview after the college entrance examination.

Sister Ma Lin also submitted her resignation application and left No. 9 Middle School after the "Paper Campus" incident ended.

…………

Seven months have passed since the "Note Incident".

ushered in the annual college entrance examination season.

In the space of seven months, Lu Ran completed a total of two "Hell Murder" missions - "Riverside Headless Female Corpse" and "Noodle Restaurant".

The difficulty is not high, and it is far less dangerous than the "paper school".

Of course, the rewards are not much.

The two tasks combined, Lu Ran only obtained 15 ancient gold coins, and his identity still stayed at "bronze".

However, here I must explain the strange "noodle restaurant" incident that Lu Ran experienced.

Lu Ran, who was in the second semester of his third year of high school, saw that the "three-month" deadline was about to arrive, and he was already optimistic about the relevant tasks on the 'Hell Forum', and was ready to spend ancient gold coins to buy other people's serious hell murders in the near future.

However, on the way home at the end of a night self-study, he and his friend Liu Mian rode on a familiar road.

Suddenly, I found a newly opened noodle restaurant in the suburbs, and it also has a rustic name - [Ah Zhen Noodle Restaurant].

Due to the new opening, the whole scene is 60% off and the omelette is also given.

Liu Mian loves the character of being greedy and greedy, so he dragged Lu Ran over to take a look.

As soon as he entered the noodle restaurant, Lu Ran smelled an unusual smell of blood...... A common routine in horror movies has also appeared, and this noodle restaurant in the wilderness actually has a beautiful proprietress like a fairy.

The chubby Liu Mian seemed to be full just by looking at the proprietress and looking at it.

Since I came, I naturally ordered two beef noodles.

Looking at the red oil floating on the noodle soup, it shimmers with a bright red light, and the whole exudes a delicious taste that is hard to refuse.

Just when Liu Mian, the little fat man, was swallowing saliva and preparing to start.

Lu Ran, who had a hot back and a clear head, pulled Liu Mian and left the noodle restaurant at a faster speed.

The beautiful proprietress didn't chase after her, she just stood at the door of the noodle shop and waved goodbye to the two, maintaining a smiling expression.

Of course, Lu Ran also quietly took a series of video images of the proprietress and the bright red beef noodles and the noodle restaurant through his mobile phone.

As soon as he returned home, Lu Ran uploaded the evidence materials, and sure enough, the verification was successful.

The "noodle shop" incident also began.

Lu Ran did not choose to intervene directly this time, because the entire noodle restaurant has problems, and it may randomly appear in different places on the outskirts of Jinniu City.

Therefore, Lu Ran carried out the mission through the [Road to Hell] on Steam.

Compared with Lu Ran's previous executions of "Hell Murder", which were mainly dark and terrifying, this time's "Noodle Restaurant" is slightly different.

Entering the game, Lu Ran appeared in a restaurant that was clean and tidy, but there was a strange smell of blood floating around...... The noodle restaurant that is currently in a state of [closed] has a smell of blood that is more than ten times stronger than the last time.

Looking for the red breath, Lu Ran cautiously stepped into the back kitchen of the noodle restaurant.

When he opened the door, he saw thighs similar to human beings stewed in the cauldron of noodles.

The proprietress wearing an apron with her back bare is cutting diced meat on the cutting board with a neat knife to make the tender cheeks...... Not to mention, this soft-shouldered jade back looks really eye-catching.

Smelling the smell of strangers, the proprietress immediately revealed her fierce face, threw a kitchen knife over, and slashed across Lu Ran's cheek.

Immediately after, Lu Ran, who was carrying an alloy chainsaw, pulled the engine and directly worked with the proprietress holding the double knives...... Combined with combat experience and increasingly proficient chainsaw attack methods, you can successfully cut off the boss lady's arm.

"Smack!" The arm that fell to the ground looked normal on the outside, but the inside was rotten and maggots.

Who knew that this cut happened to trigger the "Heavy Bleeding" effect of the Blood Chainsaw (instantly deducting 20% of the opponent's maximum health, and doubling the bleeding effect at the same time).

At the wound of the broken arm, expired ketchup (Mosaic-kun steals the spotlight again) continues to flow out, and the proprietress is like a robot whose energy has been interrupted, and she suddenly collapses to the ground and stops attacking.

"Crunch!" However, the position of the proprietress's cervical spine squirmed slightly and made a strange sound.

Syllable! The ketchup exploded again.

The hostess's entire spine crawled out on its own like a living creature.

The crawling spine resembles a white 'bone worm'.

Lu Ran had already seen that it was this 'bone worm' shaped like a spine that controlled the body of the long-dead proprietress and opened a strange noodle restaurant.

Lu Ran naturally couldn't let it go, and chased three kilometers with a chainsaw on his back......

As a result, before it was Lu Ran's turn to make a move, the 'bone worm' crossing the road was directly hit and flew out by an overloaded truck, and it was crushed twice.

Just when the driver looked nervous and got out of the car to check if he had hit someone.

I saw a smiling high school student appear at the front of the car.

The high school student, carrying a spine that had been knocked apart and barely connected by nerves, thanked the driver and ran away, before disappearing into the night.

The driver's uncle was stunned for three minutes, and after getting back into the truck, he vowed never to drive tiredly again.

Lu Ran, who was sent back to the dormitory after completing the task, unexpectedly got a good thing.

When Lu Ran checked this spine bug in the equipment slot of [Hell Road], it was different from the words of other equipment.

The label "Broken Bone Worm" is displayed in green font, which is a high-quality item, and there are many related information.

"Broken bone worms" - Humans who have died due to 'worms' or who have been exposed to insects for a long time. At the time of death, there is a very small chance of 'dorsal worming'. This dorsal bone worm is not conscious, and tends to sexually invade other corpses, and accomplish some things according to the corpse's obsession before it was alive.

Obviously, this high-quality item can sell for a good price in hell.

However, it goes on to say in the introduction that this item is a great tonic for the prisoners of the "spine system".

If the dorsal bone worm is cut in sections in 'knots', and a high-grade casserole with blood stew is used, drinking it for a month can moderately strengthen the foundation of the spine of the drinker.

Since Lu Ran would not waste such a great opportunity, the reason why he was able to pass the difficulties repeatedly was all due to the assistance of the spine.

As for 'blood', Lu Ran couldn't get it, so he could only replace it with pig blood.

Lu Ran, who had been drinking pork blood backbone broth continuously for a week, clearly felt that his back was slowly changing.
