Seeing that the plesiosaur was about to reach Xiao Yang's side, Peng Fei used his full speed to fly in the direction of Xiao Yang. However, Peng Fei was two hundred meters away from Xiao Yang. And the plesiosaur was less than ten meters away from them.
Peng Fei hadn't finished flying half the distance, and the plesiosaur's ugly head had already reached Xiao Yang's side. It suddenly stretched out its mouth and bit down on Xiao Yang's head. The plesiosaur is underwater, and Xiao Yang's moonfire can't be used. He could only use the last of his strength to dodge the plesiosaur's attack.
"No!" Peng Fei cried out as if he was going crazy.
Fortunately, Xiao Yang dodged, and his head was finally not bitten. However, his neck was tightly bitten by the plesiosaur. The plesiosaur's teeth were deeply embedded in Xiao Yang's neck, and blood gushed out. As long as the plesiosaur exerts a little more force, Xiao Yang's neck will be bitten off.
Xiao Yang's consciousness became blurred. It turns out that death is such a simple thing.
Fang Xin saw everything in his eyes. He pursed his lips and said, "Meng Pozhai, appear." β
"Bell-" A loud bang was heard in everyone's heads.
"Hint: Meng Pozhai summons a request for confirmation. Scene freeze starts immediately. The cold voice of the "sage" sounded again.
Everything around themβthe lake, the sky, the entire islandβincluding the plesiosaur and Jill, all stopped moving as if they were petrified, and became like sculptures.
The blood flowing from Xiao Yang's neck also stood still as if it had been frozen. Xiao Yang moved his body. Xiao Yang was surprised. Although my body was still in pain, the feeling of dying just now seemed to be gone.
Next, all the scenery quickly atomized and became blurry, and it was impossible to see clearly; And the five people, including Xiao Yang, all seemed to be suspended in the air.
"The call of Meng Po Village has officially begun." With the voice of the sages, the Nine Spirit Box on Fang Xin's neck floated up and flew into the air.
Hearing only the sound of "pop", the Nine Spirit Box was broken. The thousands of fragments moved rapidly through the air, forming the outline of a walled city.
The Dazhai known as Meng Po Village was built in a few minutes. Five circles of light shrouded Xiao Yang's five people, and then they all disappeared from their places.
Xiao Yang only felt that his eyes flickered, and in the next moment, he was already in a gray wasteland, and the other four people were also transferred to his side. The surroundings were shrouded in black fog, and there was only one direction where there seemed to be a dim light blinking like a star.
"Welcome to Meng Po Village." The sage's ever-unchanging voice rang out around him, "Everyone's recuperation time is three hours, please hurry. β
A circle of light appeared under the feet of the five people, and the healing terminal began to activate automatically.
Xiao Yang walked out of the treatment terminal after the wound healed. At this time, the interior of Meng Po Village has been illuminated by lights, and you can see the surrounding situation clearly. The whole Dazhai is a little bigger than Xiao Yang imagined, and the interior of Dazhai is completely barren and lifeless.
In the center of Dazhai, there is a pond with a diameter of about 20 meters, and the other four people are standing next to the pond. The surface of the pond glowed with a dim phosphorescence, and Xiao Yang noticed that this was the first light he saw. It turned out that he was wrong in the first place, and it wasn't a light.
Xiao Yang walked to the edge of the pond. In the middle of the pond stands a life-size avatar of the sages. It still maintains that service smile, which is annoying.
Several other people saw Xiao Yang coming over and greeted him. Xiao Yang asked, "Why are you gathered here?" β
"Just now, the sages said that this pond is a limited self-service terminal in Meng Po Village. As soon as you activate this terminal, you can purchase limited-edition items that can only be purchased here. Peng Fei explained.
"Then start the terminal and take a look."
As soon as Xiao Yang's words fell, he only heard the sound of "swish", and the water surface in front of him changed, and a water column with a diameter of one meter suddenly appeared and stopped in front of Xiao Yang. On the slice of the water column, a screen similar to that of the previous self-service terminal appears. A splash of water flew out of the water column, condensing into the appearance of a miniature sage.
"The limited kiosk has been activated. Let's start exchanging items. The miniature sage said.
As soon as Xiao Yang touched the water screen, an image of a bowl filled with water suddenly appeared, occupying the entire water screen.
"Limited Edition Item: Meng Po Soup. It automatically freezes an area with a radius of 1 km for 3 minutes after returning to the scene, and only the user and teammates can move in the frozen area. Characters in the frozen area will not have any memories of these three minutes. Note that this item will disappear after leaving Meng Po Village, so please drink it immediately after purchase. This is the sage's interpretation of the bowl of water.
"It turns out that this Meng Po soup is for life-saving." Peng Fei said, "Later, we will be teleported back to our original location, if you don't buy it, Brother Yang, you will still be bitten to death by the plesiosaur as soon as you go out." β
The price of Meng Po soup is 2,000 karmic fire points, plus a hungry ghost-level hell medal.
"It's ridiculously expensive. The points left in my last scene are not enough to buy Meng Po soup. Xiao Yang said anxiously.
The miniature sage immediately replied: "The points consumed to buy items in Meng Po Village will be settled after the end of this level, so don't worry about not having enough points." β
Xiao Yang gritted his teeth and bought Meng Po soup and drank it. Meng Po soup does not have any taste, it is similar to pure water.
After drinking Meng Po soup, Xiao Yang began to check the other props. Many of the props that can be bought in Wangxiangtai and the Netherworld Hall are not available in Meng Po Village; With the exception of limited-edition items, this terminal only sells consumables such as ammo.
Everyone was restocked with ammunition. The problem of insufficient ammunition, which had been worried about before, was finally solved. They even added some* to keep in reserve.
Xiao Yang brought up the 3D miniatures of all the limited-edition props. Those limited-edition items are very powerful. For example, there is a "double wing" that allows the user to fly in the air for an hour at a speed of 200 meters per second. There is also a "sea fin" that allows the user to move freely in the water for up to three hours without being restricted by water pressure and oxygen, and can swim at the same speed as a swordfish. There's even a power-up called "Partition Shelter" that protects all teammates from all attacks for three minutes.
Limited edition items are very useful, and they can be extremely useful when doing certain tasks. However, they are all consumable items, and they are no longer available once used, and they are also very expensive. For example, the "Partition Shelter" costs 3,000 points, plus a Rakshasa Hell Medal.
In the end, Xiao Yang still bought the "Isolated Land". Although a lot of points were deducted at the beginning of this level, Xiao Yang later killed enough enemies, and he estimated that the points he earned should be more than 10,000 points, and it was enough to buy "Isolated Land". It's just that the Hell Medal is used up a little distressing, the Rakshasa and Hungry Ghost Hell Medals have been used, and all he has left is the Yakshasa Hell Medal engraved on his chest.
However, it is necessary to buy the "Isolated Place". It may not be cost-effective, but it is a life-saving prop at a critical moment.
"The Isolated Land" is in the shape of a silver-white ring, activated by shouting the words "The Isolated Land". Xiao Yang put the ring on his right index finger, so that he could use it directly in case of danger.
When Xiao Yang was buying props, several other people were watching around, only Fang Xin was far away from everyone, and seemed to be in a daze. Xiao Yang saw all this.
After buying the props, Xiao Yang walked towards Fang Xin. However, just as he was about to talk to Fang Xin, Peng Fei's voice sounded behind him.
"Fang Xin. This Meng Po Village was summoned by you, right? Peng Feifa asked, "How can you have such ability?" Also, where did that black cube around your neck come about? β
Fang Xin raised his head. His eyes were a little flustered.
"Peng Fei, don't speak in that tone." After Xiao Yang finished saying this to Peng Fei, he turned to Fang Xin again, "It's okay if you don't want to say it." You saved me and all the people. Thank you. β
"Captain. I am not the one who saved you. If you want to thank you, please thank Su Feiqi. Fang Xin said something like this.
Xiao Yang was stunned: "What? Su Feiqi? β
"This thing called the Nine Spirit Box was given to me by Su Feiqi." Fang Xin looked into the distance, as if there was Su Feiqi's figure there.
That's what happened before entering this scene. At that time, all the people were still in the Netherworld. That night, Fang Xin was just about to rest, and Su Feiqi suddenly sent him a contact: "Fang Xin, I have something for you." β
When Su Feiqi appeared in front of Fang Xin, she raised a black cube in her hand and handed it to him.
"This thing is called the Nine Spirit Box, and it's an extremely special prop that I finally discovered. It can be combined with certain items obtained during missions to play a powerful role. Su Feiqi explained.
Fang Xin asked suspiciously, "...... But why did you give this to me? Even if you don't use it yourself, you can go to the captain or Peng Fei. β
"Because I believe in you." Su Feiqi smiled, "Take it." β
Although Fang Xin still had some doubts, as soon as he saw Su Feiqi's smile, he still happily accepted the Nine Spirit Box. Since it was something that Su Feiqi asked him to do, he would do it anyway.
"I went out of my way to ask the 'sages'. According to it, there are a total of nine special items that can be combined with the Nine Spirit Boxes. However, in our current mission, we can only get one of these items. The name of that prop is called Meng Po Stone. Su Feiqi continued to explain, "In case you get the Meng Po Stone, put it on the Nine Spirit Box." At that time, these two items will be combined, and you will have a chance to summon Meng Po Village. β
"Meng Po Village? What is that? β
"It was supposed to be a special rest camp, but I don't know exactly what it would be." Su Feiqi said, "The sages only told me one thing. That is, at the same time as summoning Meng Po Village, the scene will be forcibly frozen. In other words, summoning Meng Po Zhai in a critical time can allow all staff to temporarily get out of danger. β
Fang Xinqi said: "So easy to use? β
"In theory, it works. However, the Meng Po Stone is a very rare item, and according to the sages, the chance of obtaining it in a mission is less than 10%. Su Feiqi said with a smile, "The price of the Nine Spirit Box is only 100 points, just because there is basically no chance to use it." However, if someone gets the Meng Po Stone, you can tell about the Nine Spirit Boxes and use them at the right time. β
"You're so powerful, you can even find something like the Nine Spirit Box. Even Peng Fei and the captain didn't find it. Fang Xindao.
"It's not that I'm good, it's just that I'm lucky." Su Feiqi explained, "The area where props like the Nine Spirit Boxes are located is too hidden, it is placed in the consumer items area, and the captain has no intention of looking at the consumer items, so naturally they didn't find these things." I took a closer look and found it. β
However, neither the captain nor Peng Fei knew about it. Wouldn't there be a problem with that? Fang Xin was still a little uneasy.
"Peng Fei's kid and I are born with a wavelength incompatibility, and I don't want to talk to him about anything. As for the captain, he misunderstood me. He won't believe everything I say. At that moment, Su Feiqi's face showed a lonely look, but soon returned to his usual indifference, "It's okay anymore." As long as everyone can survive, I don't care about anything else. β
After listening to Fang Xin's words, Xiao Yang fell silent. Xiao Yang really doesn't trust Su Feiqi enough, because she always hides a lot of words in her heart, and she obviously sees through a lot of things, but she doesn't say them frankly. And the clone that Su Feiqi did made Xiao Yang very uncomfortable. Until now, he still doesn't know if the dead Su Feiqi is real, and whether the real Su Feiqi is still in her own room.
Su Feiqi is too complicated, and even now, Xiao Yang can't see through her at all. Although Peng Fei is also smart, he is a very straight child and can see through it at a glance. But this is not the case with Su Feiqi.
But anyway-
ββ¦β¦ I'm also very grateful to Su Feiqi. It was you and her who saved us all. Xiao Yang said sincerely, "Her death is the thing I regret the most." β
"Captain-" Fang Xin looked at Xiao Yang intently, "Su Feiqi, she...... Not dead, right? β
Hearing Fang Xin's question, Xiao Yang's eyebrows moved. Whether Su Feiqi died or not, this involved the clone. And in order to stabilize the emotions of his teammates, Xiao Yang didn't tell anyone about Su Feiqi's clone. Besides, Su Feiqi herself should keep this matter strictly secret. However, hearing Fang Xin's question, it seemed that he also knew about the clones.
But no matter what, Fang Xin shouldn't have asked this question publicly. This question is too special, whether Xiao Yang answers truthfully or lies, it is easy to cause everyone to waver. You know, now is the time for everyone to come together to get through this difficult time.
Xiao Yang didn't answer Fang Xin's question head-on in the end, but asked indifferently, "What are you talking about?" Su Feiqi's death, hasn't everyone confirmed it with their own eyes? If she hadn't died, we wouldn't have left her there like that. β
ββ¦β¦ Is that so? Fang Xin was a little disappointed, "I thought you would have a different answer, captain." β
"Fang Xin, be realistic. We are all sad that Su Feiqi is dead, but even so, we have to continue to live desperately. Xiao Yang looked at Fang Xin coldly, "I hope you won't say such groundless stupid things in the future, it doesn't make any sense." β
"My words are not unfounded!" Fang Xin was so excited that he spat around, "Su Feiqi, she told me that she has two lives, and she won't die so easily!" β
The stone in Xiao Yang's heart fell to the ground. I see. Su Feiqi just said "I have two lives" to the other party, and did not disclose the specific situation. Because Fang Xin liked Su Feiqi more, he accepted Su Feiqi's words with half a doubt. After Su Feiqi's death, Fang Xin took this sentence as his psychological pillar.
Since Fang Xin didn't know about the clones, it would be much easier.
"Su Feiqi, she should have said this to not worry you. Of course, what she said always made sense, and maybe she did find something. That's not something we should be talking about right now, though. Xiao Yang's hand stretched out towards Fang Xin's shoulder. Because Fang Xin was too tall, he reluctantly patted Fang Xin on the shoulder, and then said, "Su Feiqi has done a lot for us. In order to live up to her wishes, let's work together to find a way to complete the task first and try to live. β
Xiao Yang's words were impeccable, and Fang Xin could only be silent. But his expression was still sad. Although he has been desperately holding on until now, Su Feiqi's death has not gone away from his blow.
"Big man!" Peng Fei spoke at this time, "You haven't heard me say it, have you?" When I first entered this game of hell, I almost committed suicide out of despair. β
Fang Xin turned his head to stare at Peng Fei. Committing suicide out of despair is not at all like what the witty and tenacious Peng Fei would do.
"My favorite girl is called Swallow. She came to this hellish world with me. However, she died to protect me in the first place. Peng Fei said calmly as if he was talking about other people's affairs, "So at that time, I thought of suicide." Of course I didn't have the courage to kill myself, I just stayed where I was, waiting for the dangerous things to kill me. β
Fang Xin opened his mouth slightly, wanting to comfort Peng Fei but didn't know what to say.
"At that time, Brother Yang said to me, don't let down the dead swallow. Later, instead of dying, I desperately lived to the present. Peng Fei said, "You know what? At that time, in addition to Brother Yang's words, there was a more important reason for me to make up my mind to live. β
Peng Fei mentioned this for the first time, and Xiao Yang and Wang Hanren, who were at the same time as him, were a little surprised.
"At that time, I made a choice." Peng Fei said calmly, "I must resurrect the swallow." β
"What! How is that possible! Wang Hanren shouted, "In this world of hell games, isn't there no such thing as resurrection!" It's the same as in reality, as long as you die, you're all gone, there's nothing! β
Xiao Yang also looked at Peng Fei with a puzzled look. I remember that Cui Wenren said at the beginning that the death of the hell game is real death. So why did Peng Fei make such a wish?
"That's right. Brother Cui told us at that time that if we die here, it will be over. But does this have to be true? Peng Fei shook his head and said, "No, including Brother Cui, we all have it."
