Chapter 5: Doom
Turbidity crystals.
In the game, it is often referred to as experience dog food by Liao Ji.
It is the most commonly used item for players to catalyze and train their doomers.
According to the concentration of "turbidity" in the crystal, it is divided into four levels: small, medium, large, and super-large, and the experience value provided by the doomer increases in a ladder.
A [Small Turbidity Crystal] can raise the lowest level of "Constant" Doom to level 10.
In the game, Liao Ji can use a few clicks of the mouse, but now that it has become a live-action OL version, Liao Ji is not sure how to use props, so he has to take the most direct means.
But it seems...
It really worked.
I saw that the [small turbidity crystal] that I was stabbed into by myself did not really enter in a physical way, but the moment it touched the body of the female scavenger, it sank in like water, and began to merge with the female scavenger.
Pain...
It hurts...
Irene only felt that the blood in her body seemed to be burning, as if there were countless ants crawling inside her body, gnawing at her flesh and blood.
In an instant, her vision was filled with blood red, and all the sights she saw began to be distorted, stretched, chaotic and weird, making her whole person spin.
What Ireen had already experienced before, as if it were from the abyss, from the pollution of turbidity, reverberated in her mind at this moment, and this time it was even more violent.
Those crazy voices became more and more sharp and piercing, filling her mind, like a tidal wave, wave after wave, as if to swallow and drown her spirit.
"Uh-uhh
Irene had a splitting headache, her whole body was soaked with sweat, and the maroon lines that symbolized "turbidity" faintly emerged from her skin, flashing with a strange and dangerous glow.
The drastic change on the side of the female scavenger made the kobolds in the secret room also startled, especially when they felt the turbid aura overflowing from her body, several of them who were close to the kobolds immediately took a few steps back timidly.
Of course, Irene herself doesn't know any of this yet.
All her energy at the moment is being used to fight against "Turbidity".
In Irene's spiritual world, blood-red chains stretched out of hell, wrapping around her limbs, tightening her neck, and dragging her hard into the abyss.
Irene struggled desperately, battling the blood-red chains, for her instinct told her that once she was dragged "over there", she would never come back.
She also has her seriously ill mother in the gathering place, and she must not die here.
But willpower alone is clearly not enough.
Irene's resistance became weaker and weaker, the blood-red chains around her neck were tightened, and the strong feeling of suffocation deprived her of what little strength she had left, and Irene's vision continued to blur.
Knot... Is it over...
Not really.
Because in Irene's blurred vision, maybe it was a hallucination of her unconsciousness, but she suddenly saw the figure of a black-haired young man appear in front of her.
In this spiritual world, which was already full of blood red and she was close to falling, the young man did not seem to be affected, but the turbidity that was raging here, with the appearance of the black-haired youth, began to scatter and escape.
And when the young man finally approached him, until he finally touched her with his hand, she was imprisoned by the blood-red shackles.
That moment.
Click...
Click!
First there were tiny cracks, and then at great speed, they turned into cracks, like cobwebs, and spread to the entire chain around her neck.
Ultimately...
Boom!
The shackles that she couldn't break free from her neck completely collapsed on her own.
In an instant, the madness fell silent, the blood red receded from the spiritual world, and the power that would drag her into the abyss disappeared.
But the chains that were wrapped around her limbs were still there.
Apart from...
The part of the neck that is broken.
Instead.
It was the female scavenger on the body in reality, and even Irene herself didn't notice it, a complex and esoteric "contract" brand, like a tattoo, quietly appeared, below the back of her neck.
"Huh... Whew... Hah..."
Consciousness returned to its place, back in the real world, and it felt like Irene, who had been closed by the ghost gate, greedily breathing in the air.
Irene didn't know what it was.
But she knew who had caused all this.
When the female scavenger looked at him, Liao Ji didn't explain too much, but pointed behind the other party.
Wait for Irene to turn around again.
What caught my eye was a dog-headed face that flashed with tyranny and roughness in its narrow eyes.
The hot white mist exhaled from its wide nose, and the blood of battle remained on the messy beard that covered half of its face, making it look even more hideous.
The shovel, which was still standing with flesh, was swung in the air by its thick arms, rapidly enlarged in Irene's field of vision.
With the disappearance of the "turbid" aura on the female scavenger, the retreating kobold immediately rushed up again.
In Irene's breathing, the monsters weren't looking, they had already taken a big stride, and they were coming to them in the blink of an eye.
The kobold at the front of them held his shovel aloft, just like the gang that had knocked out the scar man before, ready to do the same to Irene.
But...
After a brief panic, Irene quickly realized that something was wrong.
Monster action...
Why is it so slow?
In Irene's eyes at this moment, the kobold's attack was like being pressed the slow button, and she could easily capture the opponent's movement trajectory and dodge.
Irene leaned sideways slightly, easily smashing the kobold's shovel into the air.
And the whistling wind brought by the shovel told Irene that it wasn't the other party who slowed down, but herself... Perception has become extraordinarily powerful?
No, it's not.
Not only the ability to perceive, but her body... This feeling of strength all over the body is...
"Roar!"
After the kobold on the opposite side failed to strike, he quickly raised the shovel again, ready to do it again, this low-level mutant monster, although his physical fitness has been strengthened a lot, but in terms of IQ, it is still very low.
And this time, Irene, who realized that her body was "different", didn't choose to hide anymore.
She took a deep breath and saw the moment, and at the neck that Irene couldn't see, the brand of "contract" flashed with a ghostly glow, and maroon lines flashed from her eyes.
Before the kobold's shovel could be smashed, Irene tensed up, concentrated all her strength on her right leg, and took the lead in throwing a leg whip into the monster's broad chest.
Brush!
The sound of breaking the air sounded, followed by a "Bang! The muffled sound.
I saw that the body of this kobold weighing hundreds of pounds was like a ball at this moment, and it was directly kicked into the air by Irene, turning into an arc, and finally unfortunately, it happened to fall on a sharp stone raised on the ground.
The kobold's body, like a puddle of mud, was completely motionless after a few convulsions.
Meanwhile.
In Liao Ji's mind in the rear, the corresponding prompt sound also sounded.
[Ding, your Doomer "Irene" successfully killed [Greedy Kobold Miner], and you gain 10 XP for it]
[Remaining to the next level: 10/100]
