Chapter 190: Trading
"Tentacles?"
After hearing Qin Fei's question, the village chief actually blushed unexpectedly, and then he continued: "This is actually a transaction..."
It turned out that as the oldest existence in the mushroom village, the village chief was the first group of people to cross here.
But the people who first came to the world of aberration did not have that kind of 'mushroom house' to live in.
As a result, when night falls, these people are attacked by nameless monsters.
At night, nameless monsters are almost everywhere, and their numbers can be said to be endless.
This attack will continue until daylight.
In order to survive, the first group of people to cross into the aberrant world could only be forced to change their own laws of life.
They sleep and rest during the day, and at night, they do everything they can to avoid the nameless monsters.
Along the way, they will occasionally kill some of the Nameless Monsters.
And the corpses of these nameless monsters have become one of the main food sources for these people.
This life went on for more than a year.
Until the village chief heard a voice .... This voice appeared in his head out of thin air.
According to the village chief, the voice referred to itself as 'Lord Rockwell'. 'Rockwell' claimed that he could teach the village chief how to fend off the nameless monsters at night.
And this teaching is unreciprocated.
Under Rockwell's direction, the village chief used the corpses of his dead companions as nourishment to grow a mushroom house that could be used by humans.
The interior of the mushroom room can emit a faint shimmer.
This light is different from firelight, it can burn and even kill the nameless monster that breaks into the room!
Not only that, but more importantly, the mushroom house has the ability to repair itself after being destroyed by the beast.
Thanks to the shelter of these mushroom houses, those who have traveled to the underworld have a place to live.
Over time, the number of people who crossed over here began to increase, and they gathered together to form what is now the 'Mushroom Village'.
Hearing this, Qin Fei's eyes showed a sudden look.
He had thoroughly figured out why the glimmer of light from the 'mushroom houses' in the village could serve as a counterweight to the nameless monsters.
The reason is simple.
The glow of fire and plants cannot damage Nameless.
Therefore, theoretically, the glow emitted by the mushroom room has no effect on the Nameless.
But one thing to know is that the source of energy for these mushroom houses is actually obtained from the bodies of those who have died....
In other words, the light emitted by the mushroom room should actually be an 'animal light source', not a plant.
The light sources that can restrain the nameless monster are sunlight, electric light, and animal light.
Therefore, the mushroom room has the ability to restrain those monsters.
But since the source of energy in the mushroom house is the human body, not the earth, it is natural that this energy source will run out one day.
Three years later, the energy supplied by the corpses to the mushroom house was almost completely depleted.
To replenish the light sources, the village chief had to plead with the voice once more.
And this time, the voice no longer refers to itself as 'Lord Rockwell,' it now refers to itself as 'Hasta'.
In response to the village chief's request, this time 'Hasta' himself was in front of the village chief.
It wears a yellow cloak that covers its entire body, and a mask on its face, making it impossible for the village chief to see what it looks like.
But the village chief could see from the bottom of the cloak the legs of Hasta, which were not human at all.... Those 'legs' are actually countless tentacles like octopuses!
In the end, 'Hasta' reached some kind of special agreement with the village chief.
With the approval of the village chief, Hasta planted a special creature in his body.
It is a parasitic organism that has tentacles similar to those of an octopus and can only live in humans.
With the help of this tentacled creature, the village chief gains the ability to 'drain' human flesh and blood.
At the same time, 'Hasta' gave a lantern to the village chief.
The tentacles and lanterns work together, and the village chief can extract 'lamp oil' from living people.
With this oil, the mushroom room can regain its glow and help the villagers defend themselves against the Nameless Monster in the dark.
After listening to the village chief's explanation, Qin Fei frowned.
He's not that easy to deceive.
Whether everything the village chief said was true or not, Qin Fei was skeptical.
As long as you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't believe it 100%.
But at least one thing Qin Fei could confirm: the source of energy for these mushroom rooms was indeed provided by those lamp oils!
Because this is a fact that Qin Fei has seen with his own eyes.
Therefore, Qin Fei didn't plan to tear his face with this old monster at the moment.
After all, in order to escape the attack of the Nameless Monster, he must also live in a house in the Mushroom Village....
If he turns his face with the village chief, then he won't have a place to live next.
Moreover, even if Qin Fei made this matter public, he estimated that it would not be the village chief who would be killed in the end, but himself.
Although the village chief killed someone, everything he did was after all to keep most of the people in the village alive, so he didn't have to do it.
Once the village chief died, there was no one to provide the village with 'lamp oil', and the villagers could no longer live in the mushroom houses.
This is something that no villager in the village can accept.
Therefore, once Qin Fei killed the village chief, it would be equivalent to confronting the villagers of the entire Mushroom Village.
Doing more harm than good to this old monster is to be done.
Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Qin Fei turned into a cloud of black mist again and slowly floated out of the village chief's house....
Qin Fei always felt that the village chief must have something to hide from him.
But his immediate priority now is not to oppose the village chief.
Qin Fei had one more important thing to do.
Over time, the 'Blue Light Zone' will gradually swallow up the 'Green Zone', and at that time, the entire Green Zone will be reduced to the territory of Nameless Monsters.
In order to find the specific reason for the outward spread of the 'blue light zone', Qin Fei planned to go deep into the interior of the blue light zone and explore.
There is a species of blue mushroom growing in the 'blue light zone', which can emit an eerie pale blue glow.
Because of this pale blue light, sunlight on the ground cannot penetrate through it.
In this way, even if Qin Fei entered the 'Blue Light Zone' during the day, he would be attacked by an endless number of nameless monsters.
So, how can you avoid the attacks of these monsters and enter the blue light zone?
According to Qin Fei's understanding of the 'distortion' world, there is one animal in the game that is indeed able to restrain the nameless monster - that is, the light bulb dog.
A bulb dog that resembles a dog.
On their heads, there is also a 'light bulb' similar to the shape of a monkfish's head.
This 'bulb' emits light source.
And, since the source of this light is animal energy, it can serve as a dispel nameless monsters.
But what puzzled Qin Fei was that after he crossed into this distorted world, he had never seen a creature like a bulb dog.
Could it be that the bulb dog is extinct in the world of aberration?
