Chapter 11: Encounters
Yun Qi kept warning himself: Don't panic, things haven't reached the worst yet.
The inability to communicate does not mean that the other party is dead, and there is another possibility, that is, the signal is interrupted.
As for the point that "most of the inability to communicate is caused by too far away from each other", Yunqi automatically selectively ignored it.
People are always accustomed to ignoring the possibility that is not conducive to their own subjectivity.
Even so, Yun Qi did not turn around and leave, but waited for 5 minutes until the mechanism was activated again.
When the stone wall was opened, he rushed inside, risking his own safety, only to find disappointment: there was no one inside, except for the undried blood on the ground and the mess left from the previous battle.
He comforted himself: it is better to find someone than to find the corpse, at least Yun Qi's final suggestion of using the alien corpse to win the mercy of the iron-blooded men is not without effect.
Now, he can only hope that the Predator will not kill the old and weak women and children, just like the original plot.
After just a pause, the pyramid with ever-changing terrain became a real labyrinth at this moment, and looking at the other three stone walls that led in different directions, Yun Qi didn't know which one to take next.
"It's just a matter of luck." He hoped that Iron Blood would not kill the captives, but he could not expect Helena to be treated preferentially, and in any case, finding himself would make him let go of his guilt.
But without a map, trying to find only two people in the maze is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is still an ever-changing maze.
Fortunately, Yun Qi was not without a clue, and the two camouflage cameras that had been buried near the sacrificial tomb did not have images of people passing by at this time.
Three channels, one excluded.
"There's a 50 percent chance of it." This scene seems familiar, but the pyramid has been uninhabited for thousands of years, and there is no dust formed by the metabolism of the human cortex on the ground, so it is impossible to follow the method of finding the gates of hell and heaven, so you can only try your luck.
Fortunately, the odds aren't too low.
Yun Qi was also a resolute person, and when the mechanism was opened again, he did not hesitate to walk towards one of the passages.
Soon, after passing through the three stone wall traps, he was blocked in a cell by the stone gate of the third trap.
It is said to be a bucket room, which covers an area of about 50 square meters, and compared to the passage that can accommodate dozens of people walking side by side outside, this is where the Mayans stacked their bones.
Rows of skulls stripped of the lower half of the body, leaving only the vertebrae attached to the vertebrae, placed in specific positions, and those who were lucky enough to enter the inside of the pyramid were most likely Mayan dignitaries, but the way of handling the bones made Yun Qi, who had received a traditional oriental education, unable to understand: is the practice of not guaranteeing the integrity of the bones a custom of Mayan culture?
Suddenly, an ominous omen rose in Yun Qi's heart, compared to the sense of crisis when he was bitten by the Predator before, it seemed to be a different feeling at this time.
He raised his vigilance, looked carefully from front to back, left and right, and found nothing wrong, but the strange feeling became more and more obvious.
He tried to turn his head abruptly, or use a reflective object such as a mirror to probe the blind spot, but he found nothing.
In the bucket room where the bones of the dead were piled up, the appearance of ominous signs was infinitely magnified by the surrounding environment, fortunately, Yun Qi's own psychological quality was excellent, but even so, he faintly felt that the hairs on his body stood on end, and his skin had goosebumps.
This kind of situation of perceiving danger, but not finding a source, is unusually unpleasant, like the feeling of knowing that you are being aimed at a sniper rifle, but you can't determine the coordinates of a sniper.
Until he inadvertently lowered his head and discovered an ominous source: it turned out that on the shoulder of his shadow, there was an extra black thing, and at first glance, it seemed that there was an extra head.
"Who!" Yun Qi wasn't stupid enough to think that there would be any ghosts here. After all, this is a sci-fi horror movie, not a supernatural movie.
He immediately realized the unknown position: directly above.
Sure enough, a human head poked out of the isolation hole in the dome.
"Who is it?" Yun Qi pulled out Magnum.
"Don't, don't get me wrong, your own people."
Just listening to the voice, Yun Qi's hanging heart relaxed. Here and now, the presence of the same kind boosts morale more than anything else.
"My name is Sandru, how are you going to get out of here?"
The man was obviously lying in the hollow above, and he may have heard Yun Qi's footsteps before, so he lay on his stomach to check what was going on.
Yun Qi raised his sword eyebrows: "You have a way?" ”
The man smiled: "Count yourself lucky, I was trapped in your place just now." You follow my instructions......"
After a few minutes, Yun Qi finally managed to return to the top and join up with the man who called himself "Sandru".
"It's a pleasure to meet you, thank God, I finally met the reincarnation." Sandru held out a friendly right hand.
Yun Qi also stretched out his hand, and from the grip of the gift, Yun Qi clearly felt that the other party's strength was not very powerful, which showed that the other party was not a reincarnation with strength expertise.
"How do you know I'm a reincarnation?" Yun Qi asked.
Sandru smiled again: "You are not wearing a snow suit worn by the plot characters, you are not a reincarnation, is it an alien." ”
Yun Qi then looked at Sandru carefully: it was a thin Caucasians, about thirty years old, sparse silver hair, deep-set eyes, slightly godless, in terms of Caucasian physique, he was closer to the physique of an Oriental.
"What about the other reincarnators?" Just when the two looked at each other, Yun Qi suddenly burst out.
Sandru was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "Lost, I and the other reincarnators, as well as the people of the Weyland Company, found the shoulder cannon weapon hidden by the Predator in the sarcophagus, and the main quest was activated." Then, on the way to leave the pyramids, he encountered an ambush by the Predators and suffered heavy losses. Damn Predator, it's all fucking invisible, and this fight is a fart! ”
"In other words, you scattered with the main army without killing a single Predator?" Yun Qi said lightly.
"The main quest we received was not to kill the Predator, so there is no need to fight to the death with non-main story characters in the early stage of the mission." Sandru explained.
"So, you're on an escort mission?"
"That is, escorting the hero and heroine to the ground ice. Well? Shouldn't your task be the same? Sandru recalled.
Yun Qi smiled: "The task I took is different from yours, as long as you stay here for more than three days, you can return to the initial space." ”
"! It's that simple! You must be taking on an easy task, right? ”
Yun Qi smiled and said nothing, just from the few words just now, he gained a lot of information: first, Sandru took on an ordinary task; Second, the main line of the mission is to protect the hero and heroine of this plot; Third, the number of reincarnators involved is quite large.
Since the normal mission and Yun Qi's survival mission have nothing to do with each other, and even have complementary effects, Yun Qi doesn't mind cooperating with him.
So, he told an innocuous lie: "Although the task of surviving for three days is simple, the optional task is to kill a large number of aliens and predators, and it is impossible for me to complete it alone." I need to work as a team. ”
"That's right, it's better to act alone than everyone else. And everyone takes care of each other, doesn't they? Sandru said.
"Since there is cooperation, there must be a basis for cooperation, right?" Yun Qi said with a smile.
The man quickly understood what he meant, and couldn't help but be stunned, and a trace of imperceptible fluctuations flashed in his eyes: "That's right, introduce yourself, my name is Sandru." ”
Yun Qi frowned: "Didn't you just introduce it?" My name is Yun Qi, and I have just experienced a rookie mission, and my skill is an inferior fusion technique, which belongs to alchemy skills. ”
Sandru said: "I'm about the same as you, and I have experienced one more official mission than you, and the harvest is quite rich, and I bought a low-level skill from the senior of the initial space, which belongs to the skeleton summoning." ”
"Skeleton summoning?" Yun Qi seemed to think of something, "On the way here just now, I saw six corpses killed by the aliens, one of which was extremely weird and missing bones, could it be that you did it?" ”
Sandru made a thought movement, and suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Oh, probably after being separated from the large army just now, I was ambushed by the alien again, and in my hurry, I used the skeleton summon indiscriminately, probably accidentally destroying a certain corpse." I forgot to mention that my skeleton summon requires corpses as a material for skill activation. ”
"Didn't you just say that you were separated from the main army at the exit corridor?" Yun Qi had more doubts in his heart.
Sandru smiled: "It's just that I was separated from the big army, I didn't say it was a small army." In fact, after we were broken up by the Predators, we were divided by the pyramid organs, and in the end there were seven people left, three of whom were hired by Weland's company, but unfortunately the male and female protagonists did not follow. ”
"You should be glad, otherwise you won't want to complete the main quest."
Sandru patted his head and said, "That's what I said." ”
"By the way, since we are allies now, we don't have to be wary of each other, so it's better to sign a pact of not attacking each other. Also, since we're all friends, shouldn't your skeleton kid emerge from the corner? Yun Qi said.
Sandru's face changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal: "My skeleton summon has no time limit, and it cannot be canceled unless you leave the mission world. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else, it's just that you have to be on guard. You also know that necromancers are spiritual specialties, and without a guard by their side, they are not much better than ordinary people. ”
As he spoke, he reached out his left hand, which looked like a dead branch, and beckoned to the lightless darkness, out of which a tall skeletal soldier emerged.
Bai Huahua's bones were covered with black cracks, and the bones looked quite familiar, and in the hollow eye holes, you could still see the flickering soul fire.
This is that the skeleton soldier is not in a good state and has suffered a lot of blows, which can be seen from the instability of the soul fire.
Yun Qi knew that there were certain restrictions on skills such as skeleton summoning: first, there must be a corpse as a material, and secondly, the strength of the summon was related to the summoning material.
Yun Qi didn't say a word, and directly opened the insight and invested in the skeleton soldiers.
Giant Skeleton Warrior: A power-type summon that is permanent in the world of this quest.
Current Health: 42%
Strength: 15
Defense: 10
Dexterity: 10
Spirit: 4
Skill 1 Bone Blade: Comes with a passive ability.
Skill 2 Curse: A very low chance of triggering the corpse poison effect, which will poison the monomer.
The strength of this skeleton warrior can only be described by the word "excellent", the strength attribute has reached the full value of level 0, the defense and agility are also quite considerable, and the two skills are a bit chicken, but it is better than nothing. Only the mental power is almost there, and it is precisely because of this that Yun Qi can see the whole picture of it with his insight talent at once.
Just having a skeleton has the attributes of a newcomer reincarnation, which is definitely a powerful help.
Yun Qi said quietly, "You have a very good summon. ”
Sandru smiled and didn't say anything.
When the two signed a contract of non-aggression against each other, they encountered unexpected problems.
