Chapter 7: Forced Killing
"Da!"
Li Xiaoxuan jumped from the window for the second time!
After landing peacefully, Xiao Xuan came to the corpse and forcibly picked up the shotgun in the escort's hand despite the discomfort.
The gun was bloody, heavy, and heavy in his hand. Li Xiaoxuan's cognition of shotguns only stays in some film and television works he has watched, and he knows nothing about the use of firearms, after all, he has never played with real guns.
Isn't it just a trigger, what's the difficulty? Besides, with such a big target as the monster, is it possible to miss it?
Li Xiaoxuan constantly brainwashed himself and built up confidence. He quickly familiarized himself with the various parts of the shotgun, put his hands in what he thought was the right place, and pointed the muzzle of the gun directly at the window, ready to wait for the monster to come up and give it a head-on blow.
Suddenly, without warning, the monster appeared at the window and leaned out most of its body. It saw Li Xiaoxuan outside the window, its small eyes surging with fierce light, and its claws made a defensive move to protect its head, and jumped down from the window.
Li Xiaoxuan, who was preoccupied, fired a shot the moment it jumped.
"Bang~"
Dozens of projectiles shot at the target with a sound that broke through the air.
At the moment when the gun rang out, the huge recoil from Xiao Xuan's hand gave him the illusion that he couldn't hold the gun for a moment. This was the first time in his life that he had fired live ammunition, but fortunately, the bullet missed the target.
A mist of blood appeared on the monster's shoulder, and then a large area of flesh and blood was revealed, and it was beaten to the ground.
Xiao Xuan didn't intend to let it go, he raised his shotgun and aimed it in the abdomen for another shot.
The bullet hit again!
The monster let out a painful wail, its venomous little cyan eyes filled with surging anger, and it jumped high with its hind feet, and its front paws pumped towards Xiao Xuan.
It's the same trick againβit's a tried and tested trick!
Li Xiaoxuan's heart sank, he tried to dodge, but the monster moved too fast, and he couldn't react at all. With a claw, it swept Xiao Xuan and his gun aside like an autumn wind sweeping away a leaf and crashed into a tree. Xiao Xuan fell to the ground, and the sky was spinning in front of him, and the watch was also updated with battle information:
"Based on your perception, you get the following battle information."
"If you are hit head-on by a monster (primitive) claw, you will take 45 physical damage. The Starter perk triggers, and you take 30 actual damage. β
"Due to the large difference in strength between the two sides, you were knocked 3 meters away."
"You've been hit a second time and you've been stunned for 5 seconds."
Li Xiaoxuan was once again in a period of vertigo where the objects in front of him were blurred. But this time, he immediately swallowed the purple medicine "magic capsule" in his mouth, and the capsule went down, and a cold feeling came out of his stomach, and the feeling of dizziness was dispelled, and his mind suddenly regained his clarity.
He didn't dare to delay when he recovered, raised his shotgun, and fired a third shot at the rushing monster.
After the cold gunshot, Xiao Xuan was surprised to see that this shot actually burst one of the monster's small eyes.
The intense pain and brief blindness caused the monster to take a half-step back, its body shaking violently and wailing.
From Xiao Xuan's tenacious attack, the monster sensed the threat of death, and it realized that it couldn't drag on any longer, so it actually sacrificed a black halo again and crashed into Li Xiaoxuan!
A trace of madness flashed in Li Xiaoxuan's eyes, he deliberately sold a flaw, and was stabbed by the monster's sharp front claws, and was directly pierced through the abdomen.
"Wow"
Li Xiaoxuan spat out a mouthful of blood with a painful expression, he convulsed a few times and didn't move, as if he had passed out.
The way he lowered his hands and resisted powerlessly made the monster let his guard down, thinking that he was dead, and it lifted Xiao Xuan up and hung him in the air in the same way it treated the mustachioed escort.
The monster enjoyed the pleasure of this method of torture and killing, and opened its only small eyes and looked around excitedly, "Roar~" It opened its mouth wide and let out a high-pitched roar.
Now is the time!
Li Xiaoxuan endured great pain and danger, waiting for this moment!
His drooping hands gripped the shotgun, and with an indomitable momentum, he thrust the muzzle of the gun into the monster's open bloody jaw.
The monster's smug expression disappeared, replaced by a humanized stunned and puzzled, and it looked at Li Xiaoxuan, who looked like crazy, with panic in its eyes.
It didn't understand why Xiao Xuan still had the strength to fight back.
"Bang Bang~"
As two deafening gunshots rang out, a huge bloody hole appeared in the back of the monster's head, and the impact shook it, and the ground behind it was covered with splatters of brains, blood, and skull fragments, and the small eyes on its hideous head gradually lost their lustre.
Li Xiaoxuan was by no means reckless in doing so, and it was not luck that he succeeded in breaking the monster's skull. In fact, when he saw the monster glow with a black halo and hit it without hesitation, his first instinct was to stop shooting and wasting bullets. This is his decision after full consideration!
The previous attack on the monster by the young escort was all in vain, and the culprit that caused more damage than nothing was the black halo. It makes the shotgun shoot in turn unsuccessful, and the viewer is really frustrated.
The black glow blocks bullets, weakens impact, and even accelerates. But there is a fatal flaw - the halo only covers the scales all over its body, and its mouth, nostrils, and eyes have no such protection. If you look for an opportunity up close, you will be able to eradicate it!
Li Xiaoxuan dared to sell such a big flaw to the monster to lure him into being fooled, relying on the "novice privilege" given by Happy Valley, without this thing, he would not dare to take such a risk if he borrowed 10,000 guts. Xiao Xuan found out that if this thing is used reasonably, then it is equivalent to several gold medals for avoiding death, which is very perverted. Its existence completely circumvents the possibility of being killed by monsters.
Unless the medical drugs are used up, it is impossible for Xiao Xuan's blood line to be beaten. It was such a fearless mentality and confidence that made him take advantage of the situation to make this seemingly death-defying move.
The rustic two shots and more than forty projectiles cut off all the life of this monster.
The demon's vitality passed quickly, and the claws that pierced Xiao Xuan's abdomen lost their strength and pulled out. It could no longer maintain its balance and collapsed.
"You dealt 52 physical damage to the Monster (the Primitive)."
"The monster has -3 health."
"You killed the monster."
"Milestone: Monster Slayer opens. You have killed 1/4 monster in total, and you need to kill 3 monsters to earn the title of monster killer. β
"You single-handedly kill the monster and get 300 tokens. Tokens are the base currency in Nightmare Happy Valley and can be used to trade between visitors. β
"You get a small treasure chest (blue)." (This chest is dropped by a monster and grants loot when opened.) οΌ
"Hint: When you kill a monster for the first time, you will inevitably drop a chest. Repeatedly killing monsters will greatly reduce the probability and quality of the chest. This mechanic applies not only to monsters, but also to other types of supernatural creatures. β
When the monster's claws were withdrawn from Li Xiaoxuan's abdomen, Xiao Xuan's hanging heart fell to the ground, and the shotgun was no longer bullets, if it hadn't died, Xiao Xuan would probably have to raise his fists and fight him hand-to-hand.
Li Xiaoxuan's abdomen was filled with a tidal wave of pain, and he endured it for a long time, but at this time, the pain came again, getting stronger and stronger, and his face was distorted. He immediately applied the blue medicine "Sterilization Hemostatic Pad" to the severely injured lower abdomen, and soon the little health left was instantly refilled.
Once again, the digitized body showed its magic, the sharp pain in the abdomen quickly faded, and several blood holes the size of bottle caps disappeared, leaving only a large bruise and a few claw marks.
Throwing aside the shotgun in his hand casually, Li Xiaoxuan looked at the monster corpse in front of him and fell silent.
He learns from his watch the hint and a series of rewards for killing it, but he is confused and unhappy.
Two soldiers died because of me, and many passers-by died because of me.
Xiao Xuan suddenly felt very sad, his nose was sour, his mood was low, and he squatted on the ground dejectedly, holding his breath in his chest. He was the winner of the battle, but at the moment he was acting like a loser.
The sun is setting, and the moon is approaching dusk. At the door of the bank, Xiao Xuan's depressed back was stretched very long, and he seemed to have matured a lot all of a sudden. Xiao Xuan bowed to each of the two escorts' bodies, and put their two shotguns and a few rounds of ammunition into the storage space.
γγγ
After a while, a shrill siren was heard in the distance, and it seemed that the police had arrived.
Li Xiaoxuan's sad mood slowly eased, he looked around, and decided to hand over this mess to the police uncle, and he slipped away first. He staggered in the opposite direction.
Maybe the battle just now was too fierce, and Xiao Xuan didn't run a few legs before he lost his energy, but he still insisted on running to a nearby park and sitting on the ground.
"Whew." Li Xiaoxuan squinted his eyes slightly, adjusted his mentality, put his low mood and sadness in his heart, and combed through the information in his head.
Blue rarity chests? Sounds okay.
He opened the storage space, and sure enough, there was a strangely shaped blue tin box inside. The box was very small, and Xiao Xuan held it in the palm of his hand, with a heavy feeling.
The chest properties are as follows:
Small treasure chests
Weight: 600 grams
Rarity: Blue
Effect: Randomly obtain equipment/skills/materials that are not higher than the blue quality, and have a certain chance to obtain additional tokens/Nightmare Coins.
Description: This is Happy Valley's reward for tourists.
Li Xiaoxuan opened the small treasure chest. I heard a crisp "click", the lid popped up, and a soft white light emanated from the box, and then a unique ring and two black coins appeared at the bottom of the box.
