Chapter 172: Thank You for Dying for Me!
"it!"
Li Ran was stunned on the spot.
"This thing can make me a mirror breaker?" Li Ran was excited and incredible.
He always thought that the Mirror Breaker was an ability, but he didn't expect it to be a certain prop.
The previous color embryo mirror breaker Wang Xiaodong also seemed to have mentioned that he was not the only mirror breaker, and even mentioned that the ancestors of his mirror breaker could travel through time and space to enter a place that was more awesome than the Black Mirror space - time space.
Here and now, is it a coincidence that a man carrying the source of the broken mirror is a coincidence with the sealed demon of the time realm?
Li Ran looked at the corrupted corpse and said in his heart: "Could this guy be the ancestor of the Mirror Breaker, he has the ability to enter the Time Realm space, and he introduced the Time Realm Demon here?" ”
He looked at the spherical mirror in his hand, thinking to himself that the source of the broken mirror can make him a mirror breaker, does it mean that there are things like the source of time and space, and the source of the broken mirror alone cannot travel through time and space.
The appearance of the Mirror Breaker and the Temporal Demon in this lava crystallization land is also a testament to the existence of the Temporal Space.
If he can collect the ability to break the mirror and travel through time and space, he can also travel through time and space freely.
With this ability, there can be many more possibilities in life, and life has the opportunity to choose again, which is the ability that many people dream of.
The butterfly still hovered above the rotting corpse, indicating that the real treasure had not yet been found, and Li Ran once again groped among the rotting clothes of the rotting corpse.
Sure enough, he touched another object.
It was an old parchment scroll, made of some unknown material, and it was not rotten like corpses and clothes, it was rolled up like a scroll.
At this time, the phoenix butterfly lost its brilliance and turned into a crystal butterfly and landed in Li Ran's palm.
He put the butterfly away and used it again until three days later.
Three days later, he either left the dungeon or died in the dungeon, and he didn't need to get the prop or not.
He slowly opened the parchment scroll, and on it was an extremely old map, marked with ancient words, which were exactly the same as the words on the black mysterious stone tablet, and he couldn't read a word.
If you look closely, you feel that there is an ancient formation recorded in the parchment scroll, this array image is a picture of all the parts in a mechanical watch stacked together, and there are ancient words recorded around the array, which looks extremely complicated.
(Legend has it that the Bright Moon tribe lost something, give it to the patriarch of the Bright Moon tribe, and it can reveal the secret of the parchment scroll for you.) )
Haoyue tribe?
What is this place?
Goldfinger didn't give a hint this time.
I've been at Cangming Airport for so long, and I've never heard of the Haoyue Clan.
But Li Ran thought that the array diagram on the parchment scroll must be related to time and space travel, and even related to the black mysterious stone tablet.
If he can find the meaning of the ancient words on it and the Haoyue Clan, maybe he will be able to solve the mystery of time and space travel.
But now there is a problem, the spherical mirror in his hand can't be used at all now, and the source of the broken mirror needs to be collected with full energy before it can be used.
The question was what kind of energy needed to be collected, and he didn't know at all.
Source of the Broken Mirror, Energy Value: 0/999
He gathered away the source of purification and the ancient parchment.
He looked around and sighed softly.
This treasure digging is to find the treasure but it seems that it has not been found.
Because there was none of them that he could use.
"Looks like we'll have to go back to the Mirror Breaker to unlock the secrets of these two things."
At this moment, Li Ran heard a strange sound.
It was the sound from the hole above him.
Li Ran quickly hid under a huge crystalline flower and peeked in the direction he came from.
I saw a rope fall down from the hole, and two figures slid down from the rope one after another.
"Brother Xue, how could your mission be such a place?"
"My identity is the leader of the emergency team, my father is a miner in the mine, after I went home, the mother in the copy told me that there was something wrong with the mine where my father was, let me go to the mine to see, this task is a exploration task, the reward is very rich, your strength is good, I need a helper like you, after the matter is completed, the old rules will give you half of the points."
Li Ran, who was hiding under the crystal flower cluster, frowned slightly, and said in shock: "Xue Jin, Li Wangu? ”
Li Ran didn't rush out to recognize each other, he wanted to see what the hell these two were doing.
Li Wangu walked behind Xue Jin, looking at this lava crystal land with a shocked face, and was also shocked by the spectacular crystallization in front of him.
"Brother Xue, this is the problem with the mine, right?" Li Wangu asked.
Xue Jin nodded, his expression was solemn, and said: "After I came down just now, my exploration mission was over, but a new task was triggered, and the rewards of this task are higher and richer, and these two tasks will be given to you together after completion." ”
"What task?" Li Wangu's eyes lit up.
Xue Jin didn't answer, but walked in front of a cluster of crystalline flowers: "Since this space was drilled out of the depths of the mine, the workers in the mine have disappeared one after another, at first people thought that there were strange creatures in this crystallized land under the cave, until later, my father found that things were not so simple. ”
Xue Jin placed his hand on a piece of crystal, and his palm was completely attached to the surface of the diamond-shaped crystal.
"These are all things I read from my father's diary, in order to prevent the news of someone missing in the mine from spreading, the mine owner blocked the news here on a large scale, recruited more miners and gave double wages, and ordered the miners to mine the crystals in this space."
Li Wangu listened attentively and asked, "And then?" ”
"My father's diary says that the boss was so mad that he stepped up efforts to mine the crystallized land even when someone was missing, and completely sealed off the mine to prevent people from entering or leaving."
"Later they found out that more than 200 miners, including my father, had contracted a strange disease."
"At first, this strange disease will grow on people's skin like ringworm, it doesn't hurt or itch, people don't care, they think it's just a very common skin disease, and they can solve it by applying plasters or something, but later they found that this kind of ringworm is getting bigger and bigger, and the arms, legs, back, and chest are growing in large pieces, and they don't make people's skin fester, but the surface grows patches similar to crystalline fish scales, and over time, they will also flow out tinfoil-colored pus."
Li Wangu's brows tightened when he heard this, and goosebumps appeared all over his body after hearing this.
"That'...... Then we dare to come here, let's go quickly. Li Wangu's eyes showed a little fear.
Xue Jin lowered his head and touched the surface of the crystal, and continued: "My father was the only one who escaped from the mine, but in the end he turned into a puddle of tin-colored water and died at home. ”
Li Wangu frowned and said, "This is just your identity in the copy, there is no need to bring emotions into such depth." ”
"Before I was trapped in the hotel by the Nightmare, I always lived at home, and I wanted to do this task when I was trapped in the hotel, but it has been delayed until now."
"Is it worth taking such a big risk to do this task?" Li Wangu asked puzzled.
Xue Jin nodded and said, "It's worth it, and it's necessary." ”
"My father's diary also recorded that when a person infected with the Crystalline Land virus dies, it turns into thick water and the virus that is released in the air will infect those around him."
When Li Wangu heard this, he took a few steps back like lightning and looked at Xue Jin in disbelief.
"Brother Xue, don't make such jokes."
Li Wangu squeezed out a smile on his face, he was really frightened by the story Xue Jin told.
Xue Jin withdrew his hand from the crystal with an indifferent expression, and he slowly lifted the long sleeves of the denim jacket on his body.
"This, this, this...... How...... How so! Li Wangu was so frightened that he took two steps back.
On the skin of Xue Jin's right arm, there was a large piece of fish scale crystalline moss, and the dense crystals made people's scalp tingle, as if countless tiny crystals were pieced together and embedded in the skin, which looked extremely oozing.
"At first, it was only the size of a pimple, but it has only grown to this size in the past few days." Xue Jin rolled up the sleeve of his left arm as he spoke, and there were two pieces of crystal moss on his left arm.
"As you can see, my symptoms are the same as those described in my father's notebook." Xue Jin looked up at Li Wangu and said indifferently: "In addition to my arms, my abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, and calves are covered with this thing. ”
Li Wangu was stupid, he hurriedly took out a mask from the storage space and put it on, and retreated step by step to the rope that slid down.
Xue Jin approached Li Wangu unhurriedly, and said in a very indifferent and ruthless tone: "Do you know how to treat this disease? ”
Li Wangu shook his head desperately, he just wanted to get out of here now.
Where would he have thought that his teammates, who had lived and died together and even slept together for a few days, would want to harm him.
If the record in Xue Jin's father's notebook is not false, if the strange skin disease on Xue Jin's body is not treated, it will eventually turn into a puddle of pus like tin foil, and the virus in the concentrated water may be transmitted to the people around him.
Before coming to this mine, they were originally going to the terminal to do a mission, but Xue Jin brought him to the mine on the grounds that the terminal task was done, saying that it was his guiding mission and asked him to help complete it.
He thought to himself that after such a long time, the guidance task had not been completed, it was indeed quite miserable, and Xue Jin said that it was just a simple exploration task.
It wasn't until this moment that he realized that Xue Jin was going to infect him with the virus on his body.
"Xue Jin, you are so vicious, I treat you as the most trusted person, and you treat me like this?" Li Wangu said angrily.
A shallow sneer appeared at the corner of Xue Jin's mouth, and he slowly walked towards Li Wangu: "Actually, when I was in the hunter game in the storage center, I had already locked you as my replacement, you are very upright, nervous, and have no wariness of the people around you, you are the best replacement." ”
"What do you mean by substitution?" Li Wangu asked with a frightened face.
He also remembered the scene of the first meeting with Xue Jin in the storage center, Xue Jin had just found a key, and he happened to appear there, in order to let Xue Jin let down his guard, he handed over the two keys in his hand to Xue Jin, which won his trust.
Thinking of this, Li Wangu felt inexplicably chilled in his heart, Xue Jin actually started to beat him at that time?
How could he endure it until now?
At this time, it was not only Li Wangu who was shocked, but also Li Ran who was hiding under the huge crystal flower cluster not far away.
"Among all the players, Xue Jin is the one who keeps the calmest when he encounters anything, and even can give advice on key issues, and he is very team player, his strength is the strongest among the only remaining players except for me and Zhao Yingzhi, I really didn't expect his city to be so deeply hidden."
Li Ran remembered what Xue Jin had just said, is there a virus in this land of crystals?
His eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at the crystalline object in front of him.
(The shattered crystalline dust contains a viral substance that can cause strange illness if inhaled, but it is not a threat to you, and you wear a multi-purpose mask and immunity ring.) )
"There really is a virus in the crystal!" Li Ran was extremely surprised.
I'm glad he didn't take off the multi-purpose mask when he came down.
No wonder the previous reminder was that it was safe for the time being and the danger was low.
It refers to the virus dust in the crystals.
"In my father's diary, it was also recorded that people infected with the crystallization virus would die in as few as three days or as many as seven days, and if they wanted to live, they had to find a replacement to bear the pain on their bodies."
Xue Jin slowly walked towards Li Wangu, and Li Wangu kept retreating.
At this time, Li Wangu's back leaned against a crystal more than two meters high, and when he looked back, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a miner's uniform with a dark face sealed in the crystal, the man's face was full of fear, and his body movements seemed to be sealed in the crystal during the escape.
At this moment, Li Wangu's face turned pale with fright.
He immediately took out his Flame Hammer and issued a warning: "Xue Jin, if you take a step closer, I will fight with you!" ”
Xue Jin stopped, keeping a distance of three meters from Li Wangu, with a shallow sneer still on his face: "Do you know how these people died?" ”
"!!"
Suddenly, three black cards fell from the top of Li Wangu's head, and the three cards flew around Li Wangu like phantom butterflies, and then, the trajectory of the card's flight turned into three black chains, which were violently closed.
Li Wangu lost the ability to resist just as he was about to react, and the three chains firmly entangled and imprisoned him with weapons and weapons.
He panicked instantly, and kept struggling, but no matter how he resisted, the chains on his body tightened more and more, and he was almost out of breath.
"Despicable, sneak attack!"
Li Wangu gritted his teeth and scolded: "Hold the grass Nima, you let go of me, what kind of ability is it to engage in a sneak attack, you have the ability to fight with me in an upright manner." ”
Xue Jin didn't care about Li Wangu's scolding, he slowly unbuttoned his denim shirt.
When he saw the terrifying appearance of Xue Jin's upper body, Li Wangu's whole person was about to collapse.
Almost no piece of Xue Jin's upper body is complete, and below the neck, a large area of skin has grown crystalline fish scale ringworm, which makes it difficult to distinguish whether it grows from the body or on the skin, and the chest and back are particularly dense, making people's scalp numb.
"I have less than half a day left in my life, and if I don't find a replacement, I'll be like my father in a puddle of thick water." Xue Jin turned around and showed Li Wangu the dense and disgusting ringworm on his body.
Li Wangu's whole person was about to go crazy and collapse: "I beg you, Brother Xue, please let me go, before you make a big mistake, I can still save you, let's go out together and catch an aboriginal to come in?" ”
"It's useless, the power value of those aborigines is generally higher than that of you and me, I'm not sure, but you, I'm absolutely sure."
"No, no, no, there must be another way, Brother Xue, find Li Ran, Li Ran will definitely help you."
Xue Jin turned his right arm and walked in front of Li Wangu, and suddenly, his hand hooked into a claw, grabbed Li Wangu's cheek, and he said coldly: "I will go and explain to others when I go back, saying that you accidentally died while helping me with the task." ”
"Hmm...... Hmmm!! Li Wangu couldn't do any resistance, shook his head in collapse, and let out a desperate cry.
"Li Wangu, I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life, thank you for dying on my behalf!"
After speaking, the crystalline ichthyosis on Xue Jin's body seemed to be given life, swimming from all parts of his body to his arms, as if turning Xue Jin's body into a conveyor belt, and those crystalline ringworms crawled frantically towards Li Wangu's mouth.
Li Wangu's face was full of despair and fear, and no matter how much he resisted, he couldn't break free from the chains on his body.
"Uh-huh-lulu-~~~~~~~~~~"
Those terrifying crystallized ringworms frantically drilled into Li Wangu's mouth from Xue Jin's hands.
And after the terrifying crystal ringworm on Xue Jin's body disappeared, his skin changed to its original appearance.
When the last piece of crystallized ringworm on his body burrowed into Li Wangu's mouth, he quickly let go of his hand and quickly stepped back.
The chains on Li Wangu's body also loosened at this time, but he knelt directly on the ground, picking out the root of his tongue with his fingers, trying to pull out all the crystallized ringworm that had been swallowed in.
His face flushed, and the green tendons on his forehead rose up on his neck.
But no matter how he picked it, in the end, he could only retch, and none of those crystalline ringworms could be picked out.
Xue Jin put on his clothes unhurriedly on the side, took out a blue mask and put it on his face, and then walked mercilessly and indifferently towards the rope under the drill hole.
"Don't ...... Don't leave...... Don't leave!! ”
Li Wangu got up and chased after him, but halfway through, he clutched his neck in pain and fell to the ground again.
"Save ...... Help me, save me!! ”
He got up again and strode after him.
"Uh-huh-lulu!!!"
But as he ran, he suddenly spit out a large number of crystals from his mouth, and these crystals gushed out of his mouth crazily, as if spitting out a torrent of crystallized waterfalls, drowning his lower body in an instant.
"Uh-huh-lulu!!!"
Li Wangu's mouth was like opening a floodgate, and after falling to the ground, the crystals like a waterfall did not flow around like water, but piled up and submerged his body in it, and those crystals automatically formed a huge diamond-shaped crystalline body as if they were alive.
For a long time, a huge diamond-shaped crystal more than three meters high stood in this crystallized land, and the faces of the people inside the crystal were full of horror and despair!
Xue Jin glanced at Li Wangu, who had turned into a crystal, and then pulled the rope without looking back to climb up the drill hole.
The Lava Crystals fell silent again.
