Chapter 33: Mimic
Shen Chan and Zero Er cautiously climbed the stairs, and soon reached the last two steps of the stairs and stood in front of the cloister on the second floor of the hall.
In the middle of this cloister, at the end of the staircase, is a large door leading to the basement floor.
Across the gate was a half-man-tall boxy old wooden chest, the red paint peeling off the boards to reveal the old wood texture, and the riveted copper strips were covered with green rust, looking like a pirate treasure chest.
Behind the box was a rather suspicious wooden sign with a downward arrow drawn on it, marked with the words "Supplies inside" in bold letters.
Shen Chan instantly realized that something was wrong and stopped.
He helped the gold-wire monocle on his left eye.
"The prosthetic eye is true."
"There is a supply inside" - identified as a fake!
Small red letters appeared on the lenses of the glasses, and Shen Chan's conjecture was also confirmed.
"It's so old-fashioned that it's a classic trap...... I really don't know who would fall for this. ”
Even if he didn't have a prosthetic eye, Shen Chan would not rush to approach this box that suddenly appeared here.
Something like "Mimic Monster" has long been rotten in various games.
And when Shen Chan was thinking about whether to solve the box by burning it directly or throwing explosives, Zero Er walked up quickly.
"It turned out to be a supply, scare Lao Tzu!"
Zero Er said happily, pulling out the long knife on his back, and preparing to pry the box open.
Shen Chan's face changed slightly, but the words of reminder didn't have time to speak......
As Zero and Two approached within half a meter of the box, the mouth of the box suddenly opened slightly, and then sprayed cyan smoke.
"Uhhh
At the same time, there were two silver cold lights shooting out of the mouth of the box along with the green smoke!
This time, Zero Er's habit of using a knife to open everything finally helped, the original knife edge was in the direction of the box, and in the face of a sudden sneak attack, he only needed to lift a few long knives up a little to block the two silver lights.
"Ding—"
With the crisp sound of metal colliding and the slight tremor of the long knife, Zero Er and Shen Chan saw clearly what the thing was coming!
It's two spikes that glow like spider's legs, and their joints are curved!
Shen Chan didn't have time to say anything to Zero Er, and more cyan smoke poured out from the crack in the middle box.
The cyan smoke spread to the surroundings with a choking smell, and Shen Chan, who had been on guard for a long time, did not hesitate, and immediately took out a gas mask from the other dimensional space and buckled it on his head.
He then pulled out another gas mask and threw it in the direction of Zero Er.
"Next!"
And Zero Er heard the whistling wind behind him, and almost subconsciously turned around and stabbed the gas mask in half.
"Oh, why didn't Lao Tzu stop it!"
With the voice of Zero Er's self-blame and remorse, she showed an apologetic look at Shen Chan, and then puffed out her mouth and made an OK gesture, which seemed to signal Shen Chan that she could hold her breath even if she held her breath.
In this short moment, the smoke quickly became thick and viscous, and visibility quickly decreased.
Soon, the three meters away Zero Two and the box all turned into blurry silhouettes, but Shen Chan could still see clearly......
The box behind Zero Two stretched out more metal multi-segmented folding spikes, and the spikes were rooted in the ground one by one, propping up the box, and it turned a strange turn of one hundred and eighty degrees, turning into an extremely terrifying monster.
It's definitely not a good thing to deal with!
Shen Chan took out a flare from another dimensional space, and after pulling the lead, the red light briefly illuminated the cyan smoke around him.
He once again took out a one-handed battle axe that he had bought from the Gold Hunting Dragon Exchange, about half a meter long, the rough log handle, the sharp and rough metal axe blade, and the red hideous ghost face blood pattern on the axe surface were all combined, and there was a wild beauty.
[Item Name: Flesh Ogre's Hand Axe]
[Type: Weapon]
【Quality: Excellent】
[Description: The favorite weapon of a murderous lean ogre, thirsting for blood, and slashing can inflict massive lacerations.] The wielder gains a large amount of strength, stamina amplification, and a small speed boost. Hitting a Flesh Structure will restore the wielder health and heal injuries, while hitting a non-Flesh Structure will cause it to go into a frenzied state and increase its destructive power. 】
[Skill: Flesh Bloodletting: After slashing, consume the 3-day balance to activate the hunger of the hand axe, and let it eat hard!] 】
[Note: Be careful, it's manic!] It wants to split human flesh, it wants to drink human blood! It's going to eat people! If you don't give it human flesh, something terrible will happen!! 】
The 12,600-day hand axe is one of the several universal primary weapons that Shen Chan has chosen for himself.
It's not that he has any obsession with the hand axe, but he feels quite comfortable after using the hand axe in the Human Wolf Villa before, although the axe was not able to bring out the copy because it was not bound, but he still felt that since the hand axe himself had used it and it was very easy to use, he simply continued to choose the hand axe.
Shen Chan, who was carrying an axe and a hood-type gas mask, quickly approached the direction where Zero Er and the treasure mimic monster were standing just now, and the originally vague silhouette became clear again.
The distance was less than one meter, and more than ten metal spikes of the treasure mimic monster were heading towards Zero Two in the thick smoke, as fast as the sewing machines stepped on by traffic stars and professional players in prison, so that Shen Chan could not see clearly at all, and could only see a few afterimages.
However, judging from the clanging sound and the string of sparks from the continuous collision of metal, Zero Two should still be able to handle it.
Even, it is not difficult for Shen Chan to judge that Zero Two should have restrained most of the metal spikes.
"But if you haven't cut it yet, it means that these thorns should be hard enough......"
Shen Chan thought about it, looked at the body of the box that was more than two meters above the ground by a dozen metal spikes, and looked like a "key", and exhaled through the gas mask.
The white mist on the transparent plastic lens appeared and receded, and Shen Cicada rushed straight from the oblique side to the direction where the wooden box was!
And just as he rushed over, half of the spikes on Zero Er's side instantly crossed the path of Shen Cicada's advance!
The pressure on Zero Er's side suddenly decreased, and she seemed to notice Shen Chan's movements, and the speed of the long knife in her hand increased again, taking two steps forward, forcing most of the metal spikes that left to return—only four were left to stop Shen Chan.
"Sure enough, its weak point is the 'box'!"
Shen Chan made a judgment in his heart, and used his axe to block a metal spike.
"When !!"
His jaw tingled, leaving a shallow dent in the spikes.
"Sure enough...... It's hard enough, too! ”
