Chapter XI

The sunlight illuminates the waterhole that has accumulated on the ruins of the building reflects the view of the sky, and the next moment, the original scenery is crushed by a bristly black claw, and the sharp claw tip pierces the stone, and the water flows down the hole in the thorn. It was a large, terrifying spider, and in terms of the spider's proportions to the ruins of the building next to it, it had at least a cubic meter of volume and eight legs over two meters long. The long legs have sharp bristles, and the spider's eight compound eyes and a pair of large teeth are shining dark red, and the black bristles cover the entire body, making it a very difficult monster at first glance.

But now the spider is frantically trying to escape through the cracks, and behind it, a very indescribable voice is speaking: "I say, it's rare to see such a big spider." I haven't seen it much lately, and if I take it to Earth, I'll be famous! I said if I catch a few dozen of them to breed and sell them to those who like to keep weird pets... The richest man in the world is not a dream, hahaha. However, although the owner of the voice said so, it did not look like he was going to be captured alive and sold.

A spear was stabbed directly from the zenith, and the spider's hard exoskeleton did little at all - the shell of a bronze shell of comparable thickness was pierced directly by an ordinary-looking spearhead, and the powerful force nailed the spider's head to the ground......... The giant spider also had the strength and vitality of arthropods, and struggled on the ground for a long time when its head was pierced, but after the second spear pinned its belly, this dying struggle was just a little entertainment for the murderer.

Standing next to the dying spider was a tall man, wearing only a pair of pants on his body, the muscle lines were very clear and developed, the eight-pack abs and the two-pack pectoral muscles were still jumping and jumping, and the top of the lean body was a very ordinary and bearded face, and the hair was also hanging down in a mess, this basically naked ** was looking at his prey proudly. "I said I don't eat spiders, why do I hunt this poor animal?" said the schizophrenic words in the man's mouth—and until now the man still couldn't tell how old he was.......

This is Zhou Zhongmou, it has been three years since he crossed over, and in three years, as a wild man, even if he is now in an abandoned town, that town is a treasure trove to him - better than a wild forest...... Although the town was looted and burned, there were no survivors, and at least twenty or thirty years had passed, some products of civilization could still be found, and they could still be used on Zhou Zhongmou - the most important thing for him was that he found some spices, especially salt.

The town took on its original appearance on the night of Zhou Zhongmou's first arrival - under the light of the crescent moon, the town suddenly took on a strange scene. Zhou Zhongmou stood in the central square of the town and watched the town return to the point where it had not been destroyed at all—it was before the destruction....... the original ruins were first lit with blue phosphorus fire, and then the flames became translucent as they were in the original form of houses—but the ruins of the houses were wrapped inside, and it was really full of a strange feeling. Zhou Zhongmou really couldn't close his mouth when he looked at this strange scene, but he didn't feel a trace of fear - when a person has already crossed, those ordinary strange things can no longer make him how...

The townspeople also appeared, and blue translucent people walked around the town as if they were still alive. Zhou Zhongmou found that these shadows were completely unconscious, they were not even ghosts, "but it was very much like a replay of some kind of video text after it was recorded....... This is Zhou Zhongmou's feeling after trying to touch those "people" with his hands but passing through them - the "people" did not react at all......

However, there are also more terrifying scenes - about a dozen skeletons crawled up from outside the town or some ruins, these skeletons are walking around the town, they obviously have a reaction similar to that of a beast - there is a skeleton in the fire in the eye socket seems to see Zhou Zhongmou, so he opens his jaw, seems to be letting out a silent roar, and then he murders Zhou Zhong - of course, it is not surprising that Zhou Zhongmou used the one-handed sword in his hand to teach how to be a human again...

"Speaking of these 'people' who are walking, their real bones get up and walk on their own....This scene is still quite interesting to think about. Who is the real himself?...... Here's another one!" It was a pale ghost with no feet and only a lower body like a tattered cloak, the ghost's face looked shriveled and rotten, and it was almost impossible to see what it was like before birth, and the two hands that drooped were also withered and thin, and they were completely two skeletal claws covered with a layer of skin. The ghost hovered over the ruins of a house, not inside the phosphorous house, the red glow in its eyes staring dead ahead with a cold, hateful glow. Zhou Zhongmou stepped back, hiding his figure in the shadow of the small fountain sculpture in the square, which had not yet collapsed. He looked around, there were about six such ghosts, and he didn't know how many of them were out of sight.

Not every ruin was wrapped in phosphorus fire, and there were still a few in the town that were not anomalous at all, and there were no ghosts floating around them. "These are probably uninhabited in the morning....... Zhou Zhongmou guessed, and then he carefully used the shadow cover to enter one of the small single-story houses. The house was in a mess, the roof had collapsed by a third, but fortunately, there were not many holes in the wall, and Zhou Zhongmou didn't care about it, so he spent the night in this house.......

When the sun appeared, all the visions disappeared. Zhou Zhongmou touched his chin, and then glanced into the distance: "Leave here to be a savage?" Forget it! It's just a few skeletons and ghosts....... "In fact, it's not just skeletons and ghosts, there are still many monsters around this abandoned town, but the current Zhou Zhongmou doesn't know. Then, this guy stayed in this place - with his current physical condition, Zhou Zhongmou didn't want to take any chances.

This is the decision Zhou Zhongmou made three years ago. In the course of three years, he eliminated all the undead skeletons in the town, and at the same time found out the details of the ghost - these guys really don't eat physical damage, but when Zhou Zhongmou was found and hunted down, he used the sword in his hand to cause the ghost to suffer obvious damage and get out of the pursuit. Afterwards, Zhou Zhongmou repeatedly tried to continue the battle with the ghost, and finally he realized that if he attacked the ghost with pure killing intent instead of fear, he could really use a weapon to inflict damage on the ghost. Thanks to this discovery, the ghost here was wiped out by this guy two years ago. During this time, Zhou Zhongmou also sorted out a relatively well-preserved house as his hiding place, and at the same time, he was like a hunting dog looking for a qiē item that could be used in the ruins, of course, he often went out of town to step around, and of course he also met many unique species in this world.

Over the course of three years, this guy's fighting skills have grown with him, and his skills in using various weapons have been developed by this guy - mainly by recalling the fighting skills in the game, of course...... There were no very powerful monsters around the town, and the most powerful thing he had encountered so far was a stinking troll with a large wooden stick and a messy hide—the reason for saying this was that he saw it as a troll or ogre in the games he used to play, so he simply called it a troll. This troll's regeneration ability is also very strong, Zhou Zhongmou fought with this guy several times, at first Zhou Zhongmou was defeated by this troll, and used the environment to successfully run away with a superior intelligence many times, and then he got used to the troll's combat routine, and seriously injured the troll many times, but every time the troll reappeared after running away, the wound healed. Finally, half a year after meeting this troll, Zhou Zhongmou finally cut off the head of this troll and killed it - now Zhou Zhongmou pulled out the fangs of the huge spider he had just killed, returned to his place of residence and put the fangs on the wall - there were also the heads of several creatures hanging on the wall, and at the same time, the bones and fur of many different creatures were made into specimens and placed in this hall, so the lack of specimens of preservatives made this hall quite undesirable..........

In order to avoid the deterioration of his brain for three years, Zhou Zhongmou had to talk to himself, so that now he has become a slut with a broken mouth like Deadpool in Marvel, and at the same time there are early symptoms of schizophrenia....... during this time, he has also tried to parse the written language of this world found in the ruins, but as an earthling college student, he mainly studied science, and he is really not good at analyzing words - he can only roughly recognize the nouns of some things at most. He didn't know the name of the town, but he had found a lot of the daily necessities in the ruins, except for salt and a small portion of the seasonings, some of which he had found in the wild, and the salt had been found by him before he had eaten it, and although it didn't taste good, it was at least salty. Zhou Zhongmou put away the clothes he had obtained in the corridor - he didn't want to wear a set of clothes all the time and get it in tatters, and he had also found a cloth in the secret cellar of a certain house that could still be used, he didn't know much about the fabric, but looking at this rough appearance, he could only think that it was linen.

In the past three years, his understanding of his body has also reached a new level......
