Chapter 12: The Gastrolith Monster
After listening to Qin Feng's reasoning, Su Qiqiao sighed silently and said:
"Qin Feng, do you know, I have always understood that your reasoning ability is good...... But I didn't know you were so good. ”
"Of course! Aha......" Qin Feng snorted, and Zhong Er laughed, "Woman! Surrender to my wisdom! ”
"Ah, the shameless skill is also very powerful." The corners of Su Qiqiao's mouth twitched.
"How can it be called shameless, that's modesty." Qin Feng continued to talk nonsense.
After the battle, they need to relax. Su Qiqiao killed a zombie in the novice mission, and now he is more acceptable to kill the humanoid creature; As for Qin Feng, this pervert who writes the script of a horror movie, we all know that his ability to bear it in his heart is like the Pacific Ocean......
But they still need to relax, take a few deep breaths, and gossip. Even an awkward conversation is better than nothing to do. After killing a humanoid creature, it's easy to fall into self-blame.
Su Qiqiao understood, and Qin Feng understood even more.
Just when Qin Feng and Su Qiqiao were gossiping after the battle, the survivor who was forgotten by the two of them, and even the author had almost forgotten, stretched out his hand to them tremblingly and said:
"That...... These two heroes...... No, the superior ...... No, benefactor! The survivor cried and said, "It's okay to talk for a while, but we're going to run ...... quickly."
The survivors were dressed in rather modest and expensive suits, bloated and obese, with blond hair disheveled. His suit was already covered in blood and tissue fluid, and I was afraid that he would not be able to save it.
At this time, his big chubby face was full of fear, but he looked quite happy.
- By the way, speaking of which, I have to mention some settings:
When playing the Demon Game, the strangeness of the contestant's behavior will be ignored by the Aborigines, and the Contestant's behavior of exposing the existence of the Demon Game and the main god will not be perceived by the Aborigines. At the same time, participants can easily communicate with the natives of the world dungeon in the devil's game.
This is to facilitate the contestants to carry out the task, and at the same time not to expose the existence of the main god and the devil game, so some cognitive interference is proposed.
Of course, this condition is also quite convenient for the current Su Qiqiao and Qin Feng. Because they will most likely need to get some information from the mouth of this native, some information to help them complete the main quest.
"Why?" Qin Feng asked with a puzzled look.
The bloated survivor stood up in panic: "There are so many dead people here, it will definitely attract monsters, let's run!" I know where the subway is here! ”
"Subway?" Qin Feng was really confused at this time, "Isn't this a labyrinth?" ”
The survivor in the suit replied, "This is a labyrinth, but this is a labyrinth formed after the collapse of the city, so the subway layout of the former city is still there, and I know how to find the subway in the labyrinth...... We're going to get out of here as soon as possible, I'm covered in blood, and it's going to attract monsters! ”
Qin Feng and Su Qiqiao glanced at each other, and then nodded their heads.
The survivor of this labyrinth is a new point of information, and by following him, it is possible to explore the labyrinth to the maximum extent possible at the moment.
"But you wait for me for three minutes first," Qin Feng said to the survivor, "I need to confirm something first." ”
Next, a scene that almost shocked Su Qiqiao and the trembling survivor happened in this small corridor.
I saw that our Qin Feng and Qin screenwriters were expressionless, carefully searching for something in the pile of corpses. Sometimes he pulls it by hand, picks up broken bones and looks through them carefully, or he gets very close and sniffs them with his nose. The care and sophistication of the process is almost incomprehensible, reminiscent of the seriousness of the Swiss watchmakers in the TV commercials when they attach the movement to the tourbillon inside the watch.
It's just that this extremely serious look, expressionless face, appears on the face of a person who looks like a serial murderer, and that guy is also very serious and careful to find a bunch of dead people...... That's basically a thriller.
"This, this, this young lady...... That man, man, man, what does he usually do, what do you do? The bloated and obese survivor looked at Qin Feng's serious figure lying on the ground, and it could be said that he was fiercely frightened, and at this time he was able to say a sentence into a paragraph.
"Alas......" Su Qiqiao rolled his eyes helplessly, frowned and looked at the sky, "He is a screenwriter." ”
"Are the current screenwriters so powerful?!" The survivors are staggered.
How come most of the screenwriters he knows have a completely different temperament from Qin Feng? The screenwriters look like cultural people, all of them are talents, and they speak well; But this screenwriter Qin looks like a murderer...... I won't mention this guy's temperament and behavior, it's weird and scary when I think about it......
"No, most of our screenwriters here are short-sighted, only focus on profits, make some bad movies that are completely unsightly, and throw paper balls into the market where bad movies are piled up to make a fortune......" Su Qiqiao pouted, as if he was a little helpless about Qin Feng's industry, sighed, looked at Qin Feng with his eyes, and said again, "If you want to say that he is really powerful, it is only him." ”
The survivor looked at Qin Feng, who was busy working in the pile of corpses, a little incredulous, but finally nodded thoughtfully.
Qin Feng was busy in the pile of blood corpses for a long time, and he almost didn't lick it, but he finally fulfilled his promise, got up on time at the time of three minutes, shook off the blood stains on his body, and said, "I'm done." ”
"What do you see?" Su Qiqiao asked.
"The main thing is to look at the clothes and fabrics of these dead bodies, their belongings, mobile phones, and watches." Qin Feng said, "I didn't find a piece of fabric that belonged to a suit that could be bought under 300,000 yuan, I didn't find a mobile phone that was a popular brand used by normal ordinary people, and I didn't find a watch that wasn't worth 500,000 yuan or more." In other words, it's the top rich who die here. Oh, by the way, they're all rich men, and they're all quite young, between seventeen and twenty-three. ”
Su Qiqiao was stunned: "Huh? ”
"And ...... Look here," Qin Feng squatted down and pointed out a piece of ground to them.
There was a piece of minced flesh and some blood on the ground. Su Qiqiao had been trying her best to avoid seeing those blood, flesh and the like, but at this moment, Qin Feng had already pointed it out to her, and she definitely had to take a look.
I saw that on the ruin-like ground of the labyrinth, those pieces of blood and flesh were gradually "sinking" under the ground, and if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice this at all.
Just like the blood stains on the fabric of the suit that Qin Feng picked up before, it also seeped into the ground. The situation was so strange and shocking that Su Qiqiao gasped, only to feel that his hair was numb like a retrograde scalp.
"This labyrinth not only created monsters to kill these rich people," Qin Feng silently looked directly into the survivor's eyes, causing the latter's body to tremble, "This labyrinth...... It also eats you multimillionaires. ”
"When we first came over, we saw that the monsters were smashing corpses, and the reason was understandable." Qin Feng looked at the two of them, "These monsters are gastroliths. ”
"Gastroliths?"
"Well, bezoars. Just like some herbivorous dinosaurs in ancient times, they would rely on gastroliths to grind food to aid digestion - that is, eat some rough stones into the stomach to better grind the forage it eats - those monsters are the gastroliths of the maze, they may not be born to kill at all, but only to 'grind food'. Qin Feng said slowly in a cold tone, "This explains the low fighting ability of monsters. Because they don't need to be particularly good at killing, they just need to be able to make people into meat sauce with a guillotine...... It is convenient to let the maze absorb. ”
"But those monsters are very strong......"
Su Qiqiao said with some grievances.
"But they can be stronger." Qin Feng said, "What if the monster's body is not one meter, but two meters? ”
Su Qiqiao was slightly stunned.
If the body of those monsters was two meters, all the shortcomings and flaws of the Mantis Guillotine Knife Monster when facing Qin Feng and Su Qiqiao would no longer exist. The monster's center of gravity will become smoother, and it will be more convenient to control the forelimbs of the scythe, maybe it only takes one dive and one horizontal slash, and Su Qiqiao will be sent flying.
"It's biologically impossible for a monster to look like that, Darwin's coffin board can't hold it down." Qin Feng spread his hands and said, "A terrestrial erect species that can't control its center of gravity should definitely not exist. So I'm more inclined to ...... This species is manufactured. ”
"Who made it?"
The survivor asked. At this time, his face was already very ugly.
"Who knows?" Qin Feng shrugged his shoulders indifferently and looked at Su Qiqiao, "But this at least shows that we are one step closer to the 'Exploring the Truth Behind the Labyrinth' in the main quest." ”
Su Qiqiao nodded, but his face turned pale.
If those monsters were created, then the difficulty of this world dungeon would have increased dramatically. Because those monsters have been determined to be monsters used to "chop up human food", that is, they are not the main combat power at all. This leads to a very frightening possibility:
Perhaps there are more powerful and combat-ready monsters in the labyrinth......
The treacherous "Labyrinth of Ruins", the bizarre "Gastrolid Monster", the hunt specifically for the rich, the ground that can absorb blood and corpses...... As Qin Feng's reasoning and decryption progressed, the tip of the iceberg of this world copy slowly unfolded, and its weirdness and difficulty were far beyond Su Qiqiao's imagination.
But in short, Su Qiqiao, Qin Feng and the fat man with the big belly who was rescued by them continued on the road.
After some conversation, Qin Feng learned that the survivor's name was William, who was an entrepreneur. He had just participated in a drinking party, and Qin Feng guessed that it was the drinking party mentioned in the letter they got the first moment they entered this world dungeon.
William and the others woke up on the subway, and after waking up, they got off the subway and came to this labyrinth. The city seems to have turned into a labyrinth, but there are still many subways in the labyrinth, and the planning and layout are no different from the city's previous ones.
When William and the army got off the subway and into the labyrinth, they met the small monsters with their hard and huge forelimbs in less than three minutes. After losing some men, William and his men fled. As a result, within half an hour, they were intercepted by three monsters here, and all the troops were wiped out, leaving only William alive.
"I should have stayed on the subway and couldn't get out!" William said indignantly, "Sure enough, it's the safest on the subway!" ”
"Hmm...... Probably......"
Qin Feng replied ominously, no one knew what he was thinking.
