Chapter 12: First Experience of the Ethereal Realm (9)
Long Qisheng and Tang Ying both stared at Wang Xian with wide eyes, waiting for his words.
Wang Xian continued: "I encountered a grotesque, it proposed a deal, but when I handed it a whistle according to the deal, it was about to blow without saying a word, can I let it blow?" What if it's a means of polluting me? So I gagged it with a gun and twisted its head off. ”
Long Qisheng and Tang Ying's eyes sparkled when they heard this.
It's so cruel, I like it so much!
"After the grotesque death, it turned into a cloud of ashes, and the ashes fell to the ground, melting into a pitch-black gap, and a huge palm protruded from the gap, it was the hand of the ethereal spirit."
"After some grappling, I managed to cut off that hand, but I was also seriously injured."
Speaking of this, Wang Xian raised his head: "You should have heard the problem!" ”
Long Qisheng nodded: "This ethereal spirit is too powerful, it shouldn't be E-level!" ”
He guessed when he was glared at by the ethereal spirit during the death experience, this time the information was wrong, it was definitely not an E-class ethereal spirit!
Tang Ying echoed: "With the strength of the captain, you should be able to easily defeat the E-level Void Spirit, otherwise you would not take the two of us newcomers to deal with the Void Spirit, but you can only open up with one hand of the Void Spirit, which is obviously unreasonable." ”
Wang Xian affirmed their statement: "The intelligence has gone wrong, this is by no means an E-level ethereal spirit, but fortunately, even the ethereal spirit has to abide by the rules of the node, and under the influence of the rules, it cannot appear in front of us in a complete form." ”
"If you only need to deal with one limb at a time, the odds are ...... It's not that there isn't. ”
After speaking, Wang Xian looked at Long Qisheng: "Tell me about the information you have discovered, and let's sum it up." ”
Long Qisheng nodded:
"First, the grotesques here are not all the subordinates of the ethereal spirits, there is an unknown number of grotesques fighting against the ethereal spirits, they eat people, but they can't attack people, they must hunt for food under the premise of complying with the rules."
"Normally, they all stay deeper in this node, only occasionally appearing here, and if they encounter it, it won't be harmful."
"Second, whether it's the ethereal, the grotesque, or us, we all need to abide by the rules of this node, and the rule I've found so far is that 'the person initiating the transaction can not keep the promise, and the person who agrees to the transaction must keep the promise'."
"Third, the captain's compass shouldn't be useless, from a certain point of view, the ethereal spirit exists in any corner of this building."
"This flesh is not under the control of the Ethereals, and it attacks everyone indiscriminately, including us, the Ethereals' men, and the grotesques hostile to the Ethereals."
"But its biggest effect is to isolate the ethereal, and only if we break a certain rule, the ethereal spirit can take advantage of it."
"Based on what happened to the captain, I speculate that the second rule is 'don't kill the grotesques in this space.'"
"These rules can be used."
"There is only one uncertain factor now, that is, after the ethereal spirit is injured to a certain extent, it will no longer appear, so that we will be trapped here."
“……”
“……”
Wang Xian and Tang Ying both looked at Long Qisheng speechlessly.
"What's wrong?" Long Qisheng was inexplicable.
"Where did you get that much information?"
Long Qisheng smiled, revealing eight teeth: "It was a kind-hearted grotesque who didn't want to be named who told me." There are still many good people in this world! ”
“……”
“……”
I believe you're a ghost!
"Okay, okay!" Long Qisheng looked at the two of them with disbelieving expressions, and spread his hands: "It's actually related to my ability." ”
"Okay, stop!" Wang Xianyi Yilong Qisheng could stop talking, and looked at his wound: "Rest for an hour, let me take it slowly, and then start moving!" ”
"Captain, you hurt ...... An hour is too rushed! Want to take a break from the rest? Long Qisheng persuaded.
Their headbands will protect them for days, and the place is fairly safe, so time is not of the essence.
Wang Xian closed his eyes and shook his head, his tone was unquestionable: "Just an hour!" ”
Didn't explain why it was in such a hurry.
Long Qisheng thought for a few seconds and understood, Wang Xian's injury ...... It may be more serious than what they see, and if he drags it on, his state will decline seriously, and even if he wants to fight hard, he will not have a chance.
He didn't try to persuade him again.
Tang Ying didn't think much about it, anyway, the manual said that she had to unconditionally obey the captain's orders and let her do whatever she wanted.
So she just took out her pistol and checked it, silently making pre-war preparations.
"I'm going to pee."
Long Qisheng picked up the DV on the ground and walked behind a large sarcoma.
Tang Ying was a little puzzled, why do you pee with a DV......
Wang Xian closed his eyes and concentrated on recovery.
After confirming that the two of them couldn't see themselves, Long Qisheng looked at the sarcoma in front of him, and then looked at the DV in his hand.
A bold idea had been swirling in his head just now, and now, he wanted to test it.
Press the red and blue buttons, stand in the original sarcoma position, and reset the button.
With a flower in front of him, Long Qisheng found himself in a new place.
The layout is still the same as the first floor of the teaching building, except that there is no flesh and blood here, nor is it clean and bright, but a kind of ...... Unspeakably weird.
The floor, walls, and ceiling are all bone-like mechanical structures, interspersed with some smooth pipes that are thick or thin, and these pipes are not like metal, let alone plastic products......
This made Long Qisheng think of the "tail" on the lower half of Ah Piao's body, which was the same style.
Is this the "technology" of the ethereal?
It's so different from us......
There were several doors on both sides of the corridor, all of which were locked, and Long Qisheng tried it, but he couldn't open them.
At the end of the corridor is a double door that looks like a stone texture, on which some abstract patterns are carved in relief, and the style of the painting is in harmony with the surrounding buildings.
Long Qisheng walked to the door, and the door opened automatically, revealing a large, dimly lit room.
The room was empty, with a row of stoves composed of machinery and pipelines distributed on one side, and a row of transparent cabinets on the other, which were stuffed with all kinds of things that Long Qisheng couldn't understand.
Intense blue flames licked the huge pot, which gurgled and smoked from the pot in a bad color.
A tall man with four slender limbs under his shoulder blades held a huge spoon and sweated profusely stirring the contents of the pot.
Feeling the dangerous aura on the man's body, Long Qisheng guessed that this should be a "ghost".
"Hey! New Arrival! The man shouted.
Long Qisheng was stunned, calling me?
"What a daze! Come and help! The man turned his head to look at Long Qisheng and shouted dissatisfiedly.
"Uh-oh."
Long Qisheng walked over quickly, and together with the man, he carried the cauldron on one side and poured the contents of the pot into the strangely shaped trolley next to him.
A pot just fills a cart.
Long Qisheng took a look at the contents of it, yellow-brown, half-thin and half-thick, although there was no pungent smell, but it always reminded people of something unpleasant.
Seeing Long Qisheng staring at the things in the car, the ghost chef's eyes straightened and warned him: "This is the high-end cuisine of Lord Void Spirit, if you dare to eat it secretly, I will break your legs!" ”
Who the hell wants to eat this?!
Long Qisheng rolled his eyes in his heart and took a step back: "I'll leave if there's nothing else!" ”
"Wait a minute!"
The chef called out to him: "My hapless apprentice doesn't know where to run and is lazy, you can help me deliver food together!" ”
Hey? And this kind of good thing?
Long Qisheng happily agreed, and after helping the chef load a cart of bad dishes, the two of them pushed a cart to the original stairwell.
Now there is no staircase, but a heavy elevator.
The chef presses the down button and the elevator opens.
The inside is very spacious, and it is not crowded at all when two people and two cars can be put in.
Long Qisheng noticed that there were seven vertical buttons on the elevator panel.
The chef pressed the penultimate button, and the elevator slowly descended.
Each time you descend a floor, the corresponding button will light up.
When the elevator arrived, Long Qisheng followed the chef and pushed the car out of the elevator and walked along the corridor.
The doors on both sides of the corridor were closed, some were silent, some were banging, and some were faintly screaming...... I don't know what's inside.
After a short walk, a large double door appeared at the end of the hallway.
There was a huge eye carved on the door, although it was a bit abstract, but Long Qisheng recognized it at a glance, this was the eye that had stared him to death before!!
It seems that this is where the ethereal spirit is, and I don't know what he looks like...... Long Qisheng couldn't help but be a little nervous.
The cook stood in front of the huge eyes, and the eyeballs on the door rolled, and after glancing at the cook, the door opened silently.
It was very dark behind the door, and there was not a single lamp, except for the dark blue flames of the two braziers in the doorway.
There was a huge metal bowl there.
The chef pushes the cart up a small slope to the edge of the bowl and carefully pours the contents of the cart into the bowl.
While he was busy, Long Qisheng secretly observed the dark shadow in this huge space.
In the dim light, I could barely see the thing.
At first glance, it feels like four slender and tough tentacles holding a huge flesh bud.
If you look closely, you will find that the "bud" is actually formed by many arms hugging each other.
Soon, the chef finished pouring the food, stepped back and motioned to Long Qisheng with his eyes.
Long Qisheng learned to be a grotesque chef, quickly finished his work, and retired.
The bowl was full, and the ethereal spirit walked over with four tentacles, and at the same time, the arms outside the bud also "bloomed" layer by layer, and a ray of red light could be faintly seen inside.
Long Qisheng hung his head, silently observing him with his remaining eyes, counting in his heart: one captain, two captains, three captains......
Very good, there are 36 captains in total...... Ah no, 36 arms.
One of the arms did not have a palm, and it was obviously the one that was cut off by Wang Xian.
When the arm fully bloomed, it revealed a round, ugly ball of flesh, with huge eyes squinted in a slit on one side and a soft mouth covered with tentacles on the other.
The chef picked up a huge spoon next to him, raised his hands above his head, and respectfully handed it to the Void Spirit.
The Ethereal Spirit curled up the spoon with a tentacle covered in gray armor and turned its mouth to the front, ready to eat.
The cook pulled the cart out of the room, followed by Long Qisheng.
After going out, Long Qisheng took a few breaths.
Although the void spirit didn't even look at him, the pressure on him was like the pressure of the mountains and seas, and when he approached, it was as if his whole body was soaked in viscous glue, and he couldn't breathe smoothly at all.
This guy ...... What level is it......
