Chapter 4: An Indescribable Experience, the Woman and the Tentacle Monster
{Main quest, within 3 hours, reach a 10-meter radius of the tower where the target is located, and ensure that you will stay alive within 30 seconds of arrival.} Time remaining: 2:59:33. Quest reward, 1 soul power.
{Side quest, explore the underground research base...... Find out what happened to the disaster. Reward: 1 point of soul power
{Side quest to kill at least three or more Mutant Dreams.} (0/3) Reward: 1 soul power
Dazed, fussed, sluggish...... Glancing over the different faces in the team, Wang Julin pursed his lips - unfortunately, there were only a few guys like him who directly paid attention to the status bar, and most of the remaining sluggish ones raised their guns in surprise and almost broke their companions.
A pile of building materials is not equal to a house, just as a mob is not equal to an army. Socrates' words remain true even after thousands of years.
However, what does it matter to oneself whether others live or die?
The new window is still superimposed on the status bar, and is still sketchy and needs no description. The light green frame, red and white text indicate the importance of the three tasks, the main task is red, and the rest is white. If you relate to the words "scenes, sandboxes" and "adventures" that Miss Mao Bear said a moment ago, the general framework of rules about this world seems to have been completed - similar to a game, but it is completed by these real people, and there is a reward for completion, and only death is for failure.
The problem is this reward......
"No. 7384 Mr. Wang Julin. As of now, the balance of your available ordinary pre-deposit is zero soul power, the amount of special pre-deposit is 0 soul power, the arrears are Wu Bai Yi Wu soul power, and the credit limit is the third level, if you have no intention of repaying the arrears, please be sure to pay a late fee of 5 soul power before leaving the Benge universe, otherwise the institution will not rule out the use of enforcement means to deprive you of the ownership of the item, as well as the possibility of life......"
The woman's indifferent voice sounded again as the switch of the status bar sounded, and Wang Julin couldn't help grinding his teeth when he heard it.
One task only gives a little ...... Then why do I have more than 500 points in arrears?
The price of the resurrection?
What is the so-called 'mutant dream'? Monster? Can you brush it?
"Mission, manure? Don't let me remind you a second time, thinking that you can view the tasks by turning the page of the menu, the red one is the only meaning of your scum's existence!
Miss Bear's roar was just right to help everyone collect their souls, and she pointed at the confused heads with her gun, and she pointed into the distance.
In the distance, the shadow of a dilapidated steel-framed tower loomed under the hazy sky:
"See that tower? That's your goal, and five kilometers is easy to train as a recruit! But a second piece of advice, don't mess with side quests! Too many **** die on greed, and there are destined to be more! I don't care what you do in the future! But with me, all you have to do is the main story! It may not save your lives, but at least it will save more people's lives! If someone is willing to be your rookie teammates! ”
Five kilometers, an hour's walk for ordinary people.
The remaining two hours should be task time. And the 'training' prefix should be the least difficult. Since no one is guaranteeing easy tasks in the future, at least now it's time to give it a try...... Although the 'soul power' of the two points is small, but if you are very hungry, flies are also meat......
Of course, fly meat is not easy to get - according to what we know, Miss Xiong and they also have a task, which may be to send how many people to the place is linked to the reward. So it goes without saying that it's better or worse to ramble around in the danger zone to gain a few points and farm those basic points through a safe road, and you can also save ammo and time.
So, if they sneak away, will they chase them?
Or will it not give anyone the possibility of slipping away at all? But the road in front of you will obviously be physically exhausted, the line will slowly lengthen, and coupled with the shelter of the surrounding buildings, it should be easier for the people at the back to break away......
"Oops, here we go again."
Wang Julin pinched the hilt of the sword, and the continuous thoughts in his mind came to an abrupt halt.
Expand the chest, close the abdomen, imagine that there is a rotating Tai Chi Yin and Yang fish in the abdominal cavity, the breath enters from the mouth, the tongue is on the top of the palate and leads down, through the middle of the body into it, and then walks Ren Du Jing back up, straight to the head Parkway, exhale out - this is similar to the Taoist practice of qi mantra, Wang Julin learned from an old Chinese medicine doctor, can concentrate on calm the mind, suppress his strange thinking.
However, what was supposed to be an effective method is now meaningless.
Because for the first time in my life, the sense of crisis around me is so heavy and huge, like waves crashing on the shore, not stopping for a moment.
……
As the team slowly moved forward, the 'world' in front of them also revealed more hideousness in front of everyone.
The dark clouds in the sky tumbled like waves, and the light painted a brownish-red hue between the clouds, like burning rubber. However, the road surface under your feet is by no means short of moisture, and every step is accompanied by a gurgling sound.
It's just that the liquid that has accumulated on both sides is hardly called water—the color of spoiled soy sauce is strangely shaped with rotting green hairs, rusty pieces of iron, and strangely shaped earth, sticky and stacked like corpses that have been left for an unknown amount of time, and the disgusting smell rushes into everyone's nostrils, stabbing and staining.
Death and destruction, for those who have not experienced it personally, will always be just a topic and a landscape, and only when they are really faced will they feel the deep horror in them.
"It's not after a nuclear war, is it? Is there any radiation......"
Someone muttered like this, but then screamed - a black shadow a meter long came out of a pile of garbage, screamed and rushed through the sewage, and disappeared into another mass of garbage, causing more horror - and the women immediately broke out when they saw that the black shadow was a mouse. The men were also shot indiscriminately into the distance as if they were in the confusion.
Until they each got a kick in the ass and threw themselves on the street:
"This is a wolf howl, do you want to attract more things to see? There are fools as bait, and I don't mind wasting bullets either! Remember! Newbie missions will weed out at least a third of the unlucky ones! Prop up your rat-like guts! Keep moving! SB, keep up with SB! Come over one by one, wait for that SB to walk over, you SB and then go over, I told you to run, you SB will run for me, do you hear me! ”
"Are you deaf? Does the old lady speak Chinese? ”
"Are you **** holding a gun or masturbating! I don't have any special strength to choose AK, I don't know the recoil of this SB gun? I still want to hold it with one hand, do you want to see your brain? ”
……
No matter how you move forward, the steel tower that is the target seems to have been hidden behind the cascading abandoned buildings in the distance. Only the promise of 'just go anywhere' is like a turnip hanging in front of a donkey, luring everyone to continue the trek. And the whip is Miss Bear's seemingly never-ending curse.
Or that human adaptability is such that they can't be tense forever. So when there was no danger in sight other than the ruined streets and a few rats, the formation began to loosen up consciously or unconsciously, and the whispers came from nothing, and even a few more chuckles.
"Aren't we going to stay in this kind of place forever?"
At the back of the line, a woman with heavy makeup looked left and right and whispered, "This is completely different from that scene experience?" ”
There are not many women among the dozen people, and there are only five mixed-race girls in front, two of whom are of European and American races, so only one aunt is left to answer her question: "I don't know, anyway, someone is sentenced, and then tell me that I can enter the program, and what kind of guide or something, but I didn't explain anything at all, what is the program?" ”
"Experience the scene...... Well, what's yours like? Didn't the facilitator give you any hints? Wang Julin coughed lightly and said tentatively-
"Speak clearly? Tell a fart, don't say a word, and get the old lady out! ”
The woman with heavy makeup shook her head and touched her body casually, and then seemed to remember that there was no tobacco here: "I only saw a chick who lived in a mansion, and I had to ask the old lady to give him ****, hum, a boy chicken also wants to bargain under the old lady?" After two or three clicks, I fainted, and I passed it. ”
What kind of experience is this?
It seemed that Wang Julin's surprised expression was quite useful, and the woman chattered more and more: "If you want to say that the house is a little cloudy, but it is really big and generous, but unfortunately the things that came out of him are gone, and there are several three or four carat diamond rings, it's really hell......"
"Oh, and Aunt Sauce's? It's really good, my experience is something, after a day of walking in the maze, I almost died of exhaustion. ”
Everyone's experience is still different?
So why didn't I?
The simple narrative of the two women contains an astonishing amount of information, but unfortunately it has only the opposite effect on Wang Julin, who wants to understand the situation...... Before he could continue to open his mouth, the tattered asphalt under his feet suddenly seemed to move.
It's light, like casual vertigo that is fleeting. But with his eyes turning, he keenly caught the anomaly - there was debris slipping from the garbage around him.
Not an illusion...... The vibration continued, and it was impossible to detect it without careful experience, but it was undoubtedly getting closer and closer—as Wang Julin took a deep breath and slowly adjusted his steps to find the source of the sound...... The voice also got louder. Mixed with the squeaky of the wind. It's like the friction of a bone being bitten and numb.
The ranks ahead were in turmoil.
It's not that someone has found anything like him, but because a third creature has finally appeared in the ruins, after rats and cockroaches.
A woman.
She was a young, beautiful woman, and she sat sluggishly under the building on the side of the road ahead.
The building looked no different from its surroundings, the two or three storey balconies were crooked and hung in the air by steel bars, the weathered cement had collapsed in half, and a large cloud of ash had piled up on the ground, gray and red, flat to remind people of the desert, and the woman was the victim of the desert—she was curled up by a broken door, her body draped in rags, the white skin peculiar to Europeans, and even two soft blush loomed in between, firmly catching the eyes of the guys in front of the group, and making them lean over as if they had lost their souls.
Sensing that someone was approaching, the woman jumped up like a nightmare, pulled down the dirty cloth on her body, and screamed incoherently:
"Help, I'm not infected...... Don't kill me! I haven't changed anything...... I ......"
In the face of this astonishing unfolding, there were obviously not many people who could respond soberly - the white greasy flesh shaking in front of them was enough to make most men's blood withdraw from the rational thinking area to the crotch, and they watched in a daze as the woman stumbled over a dozen meters, until she threw herself into the arms of some unlucky person, and then rushed up like a dream.
"These stinky men are disgusting. But the **** who throws his arms is even more shameless! ”
"The spicy travelers are shouting, it's strange if you don't save it, right?"
Of course, the women did not make any noise because of this, but the whispers between them made Wang Julin's heart move - the two 'instructors' did not seem to stop the interest in this 'disorganized and undisciplined' scene in the slightest. Just a cold look.
His eyes rolled, and his pupils shrank.
Smoke was rising from the ground where the woman had been sitting, and the ground was rippling, as if something was struggling to break free from its restraints!
"There's something underground! Come ......," he shouted.
But the reminder was obviously a little late.
Before the words passed through the chaos, the dust and haze on the ground were already gushing like a spring! In the blink of an eye, a large area of space was already chaotic, and six or seven black shadows immediately stretched out from the dust and rolled towards the surroundings like a long whip!
The three unlucky guys who were closest to him were caught off guard, and in an instant they were dragged into the dust, and the screams that erupted made the crowd suddenly chaotic again!
"Monster, monster!"
"Ahhh......h
Most of the people retreated, subconsciously pulling the trigger into the oncoming dust, and for a while the gunfire rang out, but as you can imagine, this reaction only made the situation more chaotic except for wasting bullets - the whip-like black shadow leaned forward without care, and then circled several guys who were shooting indiscriminately, and dragged them into the dust mist!
"Phew! Bang! Bang! ”
A series of dull roars will drown down the noise! In the flash of light, the dust mist was unexpectedly broken through three holes! The dust rolled up, revealing the unlucky ones that had fallen from mid-air in the center, and the dark and brown tentacles that had grabbed them, the thickness of a human waist, coiling and writhing wildly, and the surface with countless suction cups was chilling.
However, the writhing was nothing more than a death throe—the foundation of the tentacles connecting to the ground had been completely broken, and a blue-black viscous liquid spewed out, staining the dust mist with an eerie blue-green color!
Wang Julin narrowed his eyes and stared at the source of the unscience.
The other instructor who had been silently following Miss Xiong lowered her eyes slightly, and her face was indifferent, as if everything had nothing to do with her at all. At this moment, however, it was clear that no one could ignore her presence again - and not only because of the huge firearm that was more than three meters long in her hand. and the hit rate of three shots that broke at least five or six tentacles through the dust, and the burst speed that clearly exceeded the bolt-action weapon. What's more important is her colorful and shining appearance - the long hair that hangs down to her waist is constantly flowing with brilliant and colorful seven-color luster, and the brilliance almost blinds Wang Julin's pair of alloy dog eyes.
I really don't give you a chance......
I thought I could take advantage of the opportunity of 'working together' to take advantage of the chaos to grab the head...... I also reminded the idiots very enthusiastically, I knew this was the case, maybe it would be better to rush up and cut a few swords just now?
- someone's heart at the moment.
