"The dark shadow behind the strange rock, the thing that keeps calling my name behind it, and the dense shadows on the ground..."

"If there are only one or two supernatural spirits, then there is still the possibility of solving them head-on, which is nothing more than a certain law involved, which needs to be discovered by myself."

"But with so many things added together, even Uncle Ying will give them away in person, so if you challenge them, it will definitely be a dead end."

"So... It's for me to escape..."

"Where to flee?"

"If there is something too ferocious in a scene that can be crushed by ignoring the rules under the premise of 'having a way to live', then... There must be some kind of natural enemy or object around these ferocious things that restrain them. ”

Li Mingyu, who gradually entered the state, felt that he had grasped the point, since the task prompt said to survive, as long as he was not certain to die, what he had to do was to find a way to survive.

And now, it's about finding a way to restrain these things around you.

Images of debris kept flickering in my mind.

Dead wood, strange rocks, paths, and the ruined building at the end of the trail.

"Ruined buildings!"

Everything in the scene is depicted together, and in this barren mountain range, only the dilapidated building stands out and is special.

"So..."

Without time to hesitate, Li Mingyu's legs spun like fans, and his body shot towards the dilapidated building at the end of the path.

It's only a gamble, and in the whole scene, only that building is special.

As he ran, the voice behind him became more and more rapid, even a little shrill and harsh.

The shadows under his feet became more and more bloated, and more and more "things" climbed up, and as they gnawed, Li Mingyu felt that his physical strength and vitality were passing rapidly.

The feeling of fear was still there, but it was as if something had separated him from a thin membrane so that he could still think normally.

Li Mingyu thought of the skill on his attribute panel:

Urgency: Intelligence +1, adrenaline secretion slightly accelerated in critical moments, speed increased by 8%, thinking speed increased by 20%, side effects, detachment.

"So, I triggered this skill at a moment of danger to be able to think calmly, and it seems to have a certain restraint effect on negative effects such as fear."

It's amazing, he doesn't have that ability in reality.

With a guess in his heart, Li Mingyu's speed was faster.

At the end of the skill description, there is a side effect of detachment, Li Mingyu does not know the specific effect of "detachment", but according to the literal meaning, it should be weakened, or simply incapacitated.

He didn't know how long the skill would last, and if he didn't make it to the ruined building when the side effects appeared, he would have to stay here forever with them.

The potential of people on the verge of life and death is terrifying, but it is a pity that Li Mingyu should usually eat more Liuwei Dihuang Pills.

His 2.2.3 strength and body sensitivity are really stretched. No matter how fast he wants, his speed is always limited.

They did not stop torturing Li Mingyu, and Li Mingyu felt that every step he took was a heavy point in the next step.

Most of the journey has passed, but with a small part of the remainder, Li Mingyu feels that it is difficult to move forward.

"If the sixth brother comes, I'm afraid it's already close to the station."

"But Lao Tzu is not bad..."

He grinned, his gums squeezed and deformed under the vigorous bite, the pinprick tinnitus gave him a headache, and he felt that his physical strength was constantly draining, and the feeling of "calmness" slowly faded like a tide.

Li Mingyu knew that the duration of the skill was about to expire.

"Ah~!"

There was a loud roar, like thunder in this secluded wilderness.

Li Mingyu burst out of potential, like a lone wolf that was about to run out of oil, sitting in the last struggle.

The invisible force bent him down, and he simply fell on all fours, his face almost against the ground that were gnawing at him, and he crawled.

One minute, two minutes...

Finally, he saw that the things on his shadow seemed to be frightened in some way, and he stopped biting, and slid off his shadow one after another, and then crawled down the ground towards his back until he was out of sight.

One, two, ten.... The shadow finally became a normal silhouette, and it was only him.

The voice behind him calling his name gradually faded away until it was no longer audible.

Li Mingyu was lying on the ground, and several stone steps appeared in front of him.

The stone steps were covered with cracks, and the cracks were overgrown with weeds.

A lantern with only a bamboo frame left rolled in front of him a few times, and finally he didn't know where it was blown by the wind.

He finally came to the door of the building.

Li Mingyu looked up with difficulty, above the stone steps was a gate full of traces of time, the paint on the gate was mixed and blackened, full of weathered holes, a few cobwebs hung in the corners of the eaves, and then up, a plaque hung obliquely.

Through the cold moonlight, you can vaguely see clearly, and the plaque reads:

"Temple of Our Lady of Mount Tai"

A temple?

Li Mingyu turned over and sat up, his body drooped on the stone steps, and in front of the broken temple, he was paralyzed, frowning, as if he was enduring some pain.

That's a side effect of skill.

After five or six minutes, the muscles in my body were torn and the soreness gradually disappeared.

"Is this a detachment?"

Sure enough, if he loses his strength on the trail, he will definitely be dead.

Looking at the strange rocks and dead trees in the distance, as well as the shadows that wandered on the ground from time to time, Li Mingyu, who had survived the disaster, was no longer so afraid, and after experiencing it himself, he had some resistance to these scary things.

"Thank you Lady Luck for your favor."

Li Mingyu guessed correctly, they really didn't dare to approach here.

"Finally... I survived. ”

He didn't dare to linger at the door, who knows if there are other terrifying things in the stone forest, after hesitating, Li Mingyu stepped over the half-collapsed dilapidated threshold and walked into the ancient temple.

The ground in the ancient temple is all paved with bluestone slabs, but like the stone steps outside, it is full of cracks and weeds.

After turning around, in addition to the main hall in the ancient temple, there was a room on each side, all of which were dilapidated and in disrepair.

There is no name in the room, only a plaque hanging in the main hall that reads Niangniang Palace.

"Taishan Niangniang Temple... Niangniang Palace.." Li Mingyu lowered his head and muttered, trying to analyze some useful information.

He had heard of Niangniang Temple, as if there was a temple of the same name in the real world. However, Li Mingyu doesn't believe in those things very much, and he doesn't know much about them.

He continued to observe his surroundings.

The rooms on both sides were pitch black and a little gloomy, and in the depths of this ancient temple, the dilapidated door walls of the room covered with cobwebs revealed a sense of supernatural horror.

The main hall with the plaque of the Niangniang Hall is different, there are lights inside, reflecting a trace of temperature in this cold environment.

"Judging from the degree of damage to this ancient temple, it must have been desolate for a long time, how can there be lights?"

"Could it be that there are still people living in here?"

"Or maybe it's not a human being."

The strange lights, in Li Mingyu's opinion, are even more frightening than the dark room.

The gloomy and cold atmosphere permeated every corner, and this ancient temple was full of a sense of chatting and fasting, and Li Mingyu felt that the main quest of surviving for 48 hours would not be so simple.

"The best option now is not to move around, but to find out the surroundings first."

The weeds did not reach the calf, Li Mingyu walked lightly, for fear of disturbing something, he circled the yard again, this time he walked, while carefully observing every corner, he tried to find some useful clues.

But alas, he didn't see anything but cracked slabs and weeds.

Just as he was about to give up, he suddenly tripped over something under his feet.

When I looked down, it was a rotten incense burner, which was dumped in the weeds, and I don't know how many years of wind and rain it had suffered, and it looked like it was about to be weathered.

Just as Li Mingyu fell his gaze on the broken incense burner, a strange scene happened, blue light appeared in front of his eyes, and a panel appeared in his field of vision.

[Name: Dilapidated incense burner-ordinary]

[Type: Item Item]

[Attribute: +1% return qi when meditating.] 】

[Introduction: Contains a weak wish, the incense burner used to be used for sacrifices in the temple.] 】

[Note: Spirits can be touched.] 】

Li Mingyu was taken aback.

Items with attributes!

He bent down and carried the incense burner in his hand, this thing was the size of a human head, and it was quite heavy to start, about five or six catties, and the material should be made of copper.

"This incense burner actually has attributes, and it's really getting more and more like a game."

Li Mingyu remembered his current identity:

gamer

And his profession:

executioner

Is this really in the middle of a game?

Or, it's a different space.

"Anyway, it's definitely not the real world, I remember when I first came in, and the prompt welcomed me to the wilderness or something, the wilderness, is it the name of this world?"

"And if you die in the wilderness, what will happen to the real world?"

Li Mingyu guessed that the relationship between the death and survival of players in the wilderness and the real world must not be as simple as in ordinary games.

Of course, he didn't have the idea of giving it a try.

"Executioner..."

"That doesn't sound like a lucky job."

Literally, his skill [Quickness] doesn't seem to fit the setting of the [Executioner] profession either.

I checked the incense burner in my hand, I don't know what the "meditation and return qi" in the attribute introduction is, presumably "qi" is also a certain attribute of the player, similar to the internal force of martial arts, and the reason why he doesn't have it now is because the level is too low.

Or, Qi is an attribute exclusive to other classes, and [Executioner] does not have Qi attributes.

Many doubts flashed in Li Mingyu's mind when the attribute panel of the incense burner lit up, but now is not the time to care about these, as long as you complete the main quest, you may be able to return to the real world, and then find a way to explore these problems.

As for how to explore...

If Li Mingyu didn't know that He Shouyi and the others were looking for him before because of his identity as a "player", then he would be too stupid.

...

"It's finally paying off."

Looking around, Li Mingyu was thinking in his heart where to start exploring.

He didn't think he could spend 48 hours in this courtyard.

He already had some conjectures in mind about the mission mechanics.

That is, the player must act in the direction guided by the mission.

As for what exactly this direction is, it still needs some brains to discover.

For example, when he is in the stone forest outside the ancient temple, the guiding direction of the task should be to ask him to enter the ancient temple.

Because if you stay outside, you will be eaten.

But the task did not clearly prompt this, if Li Mingyu hadn't discovered the key in time, he probably wouldn't have been able to get here.

That is, this direction is hidden and requires a certain level of observation and reasoning.

And the guiding direction of the task should be the way to survive, or in other words, the correct way for the player to complete the task.

And in addition to "Survival 48 hours in the main quest 1", he also has another main quest 2:

"-0/3 for killing a Spooky or Desolate Beast."

The message of this quest is obvious, kill!

Although I don't know what weird and wild beasts are, it can't be these weeds in the yard.

And since he came here in the right direction, then the killing mission of the second main line should definitely be completed here.
