Humanoid Machines [Unlimited] Section 293
The extreme fear made her whole body tense, the expression on her face stiffened, and her eyes shrunk into small dots, as if she could not even make the instinctive action of gently closing her eyes.
She was also afraid of the villagers. But this level of fear seemed to have directly crossed two degrees - at least under the protection of Yuan Yuxue, she would never be afraid of not being able to say a complete sentence.
She shrunk into Yuan Yuxue's arms and began to make some chaotic babbles, followed by tears, crying, and repeating a syllable like crazy as if she was about to collapse.
After about a few seconds, Yuan Yuxue was silent, and her hands cut off the link between her and the outside world's consciousness. Because according to the judgment from the scan feedback, if her emotions continue to fluctuate violently, it will not take ten seconds for her consciousness to completely collapse and be fused.
The merfolk leader fainted, and this silence was especially precious at this moment. Her cheeks were still wet and shiny.
In fact, not only the mermaid leader, but also the other people's state is not much better.
For example, Xiao Qi, she was in the same bad state, squatting on the ground and shrinking herself into a ball.
Or the other players - their movements seemed to freeze, and they only stared numbly wide, and there was the most instinctive fear in them. Their expressions were frozen, but it was not difficult to see that they were biting their tongues and their teeth trembling, as if they were restraining themselves from screaming so as not to alarm anything.
Alarmed...... And what?
In contrast, it was the villagers who did the best. Instead of feeling frightened, they seem to be ...... Obsessed, staring blankly at somewhere in the center of the altar. The gaze was so misty, they seemed to have become inanimate puppets again, step by step, very expectantly towards some ground—
Yuan Yuxue also stared there.
He is inherently different from other players, so at such moments, of course, he can't appreciate the danger and fear that the human body perceives, but he clearly senses something. He left the merfolk leader in a slightly safer corner, but he himself moved a little closer to the center of the altar—
The carved patterns on the altar emerge, and the bright red color outlines the strange pattern.
And in just an instant, the pattern was suddenly destroyed, and a huge, bright red fist broke through the ground, hammering the pattern pattern, and from the depths of the ground, slowly crawled out a—
Something hard to describe.
It was bright red, the kind of red that looked very dirty and chaotic, and took over the entire surface of its body. The body gives the concept of "massiveness", similar to the human body, and then trance-like into some indescribable chaotic shape, constantly changing, like a liquid and like a solid.
It looked huge, as if the small subterranean was not large enough to hold it, but its body was contained within the space. It was as if some part of its body had been placed somewhere else in the space, such as the huge underground space they were treading on, where there were almost no boundaries visible.
The moment it appeared, the players' mood fluctuated dramatically.
Yuan Yuxue still had free time, and scanned it very calmly.
Will go crazy.
They seem to be in a better situation than the merfolk leader. But if they continue to be in this situation where the fierce fear value is exceeded, it will also affect their spirits, and finally show the most obvious characteristics...... It's madness.
The villagers' mental values are not very normal, but what they have shown so far is probably positive.
They looked at "it" incredulously, with reverence, awe, and fanatical faith in their eyes. They knelt on the ground and walked towards it, as if they were now eager to pull out their hearts to show that they could give everything to show their loyalty to it—
"There is a god," the fat man's voice trembled slightly, in fact, his whole body trembled, "there really is a god......
He was more excited than anyone else and shuddered in his prayers, "My God, I am your most devout believer!" Every year, the sacrifice is presided over by my own hands! You really showed up! Haha, hahaha, are you going to personally punish those traitors who don't revere you? That's the last value of those damned traitors, and they should be honored for it......"
He had probably never been so sharp-tongued as he said these words quickly, and some of the villagers trembled even more.
Their faith was not strong enough, and because of the words of a damn brute, they were shaken in their hearts, and even gave birth to the disrespectful idea that this was a hoax!
And now, God has really appeared, and He will punish these lowly humans who have insulted Him. Even if they haven't had time to do anything, even if it's just a disrespectful thought in their hearts, they must have been discovered......
Thinking like this, some people even trembled their legs, and even more irreverently became incontinent at this solemn moment.
This great offense caused the big, massive, indescribable god with a bright red body to shift his body slightly.
They could all feel that the "gaze" fell on them.
Like some kind of insect suddenly caught by the light, they couldn't move. Immediately after, a huge bright red palm reached out—what might be called a palm—grabbed the fat man kneeling at the front and threw him into his "mouth".
The sound of "crunch" and "crunch" chewing came.
The faces of the villagers froze.
Soon, the chewing sound stopped.
This is certainly not to say that it suddenly discovers in its conscience that the fat man is its fanatical believer and can let him go, which at best proves that it digests quickly.
It seemed that it tasted good, and soon, the big hand reached out to the villain in front of him again-
The villagers finally reacted, screamed, and rolled to the side.
Yuan Yuxue knows the current situation better than they do.
This is not at all the "god" that the fat man uses to deceive and kindly accept them as subordinates and let them atone for their sins.
It's a "god" that has just been conceived in the world of replicas.
In response to those dirty fantasies, the "evil gods" born from the malice of human beings.
Not only Yuan Yuxue, but other players also reacted to it to some extent.
- Excellent.
The suit ironically thought: An investigation copy was forced by us to become an evil god cultivation copy, is there a worse situation?
They have witnessed the "upgrade", or "mutation", of the dungeon. Originally, the "god" in this copy should not have existed, but because the lies have been exposed over the years, the malice between the villagers has reached the extreme, coupled with the accumulation of huge malice in the dungeon for so long. In the imagination of the fat man, or some other human beings who want "God" to appear, "God" really appears.
The difficulty of the hapless players has also been upgraded from A to S.
Chapter 312: Gold and Silver Village 91
Presumably because the evil god appears mainly at the "wish" of the villagers, it obviously prefers the smell of the villagers to the player or other NPCs, and mainly preys on the villagers.
In the midst of the screams and the strong smell of incontinence, it was very unfussy, even "slow" and contentedly picked up the little people running all over the ground and stuffed them into its own body - it was hard to make out if it was a mouth or not.
Then chew little by little.
It was as if such a small human body could bring a lot of energy and benefits to its huge body.
Gradually, fewer and fewer villagers were captured—many of them didn't even understand what was going on, and the expressions on their faces were frozen in intense fear.
When they raised those "fish" and gave them to their mouths as sacrifices, they probably never imagined that one day they would switch identities with "fish". The "gods" actually preferred them to the sacrifices they offered, and ate them alive as if they were sacrificial animals.
Yuan Yuxue's eyes were pitch black, as if a gap of light from a lit torch could not fall into his eyes at all. In the face of this strange and terrifying scene like purgatory on earth, his lips twitched slightly, as if he had said something. Because of the limitations of the copy, he couldn't utter any slight syllables, and no one could hear what Yuan Yuxue said.
Just at the same moment, Xiao Qi's lips not far away also opened slightly, and he seemed to can't help but utter a short syllable - this sentence and the sentence Yuan Yuxue just said, The lips of the two formed a consistent overlap.
And her tone at this time was also very soft and weird, and spit out those two words:
"Recycling."
Although I don't know how to achieve the strange power of infinite rebirth in those villagers, "it" - or "copy consciousness" seems to want to use the evil god created by this to recover all those powers.
The more obvious and direct evidence is that after devouring the villagers, the intense, disgusting oppression caused by the "gods" seems to become more powerful. Its size slowly grew larger, cracks appeared in the ground where its body parts were buried, and the giant red hand that had grabbed the villager's body began to grow thicker, like bright red flowing flesh.
It's getting stronger.
Even in its first form, it is by no means something that players can deal with. What's more, in the blink of an eye, it has recovered more energy-
Xiao Qi stood in place.
The extreme gloom and fear made her almost want to pass out now, and it was pressing on her nerves all the time. However, now, Xiao Qi just stood in place, motionless, and even had little desire to escape.
Even if she knew very well that after those villagers died, it would be her turn next.
She also has the power that the copy gave her to manipulate some sacrificial props, and now, this power is also about to be recovered.
She couldn't run away.
Even if she hides in the sky, it is difficult to avoid the doom, not to mention that she is still confined to the dirty land of Jinyin Village.
If you have to say anything extravagant-
Xiao Qi lowered his eyes slightly.
At least the "players", at least the "outsiders", they should be able to escape too-
She will buy them time before they die out completely.
Even for their own terrible deceived fate...... One last damn revolt.
After suppressing the fear that was almost physiological, the players now have a clear mind.
Even if you play high, you will never be able to fight against the boss with the suffix "God" in the dungeon!
But they now have a gradually clear advantage, after confirming that the villagers have only provided them with false conditions, they have confirmed the identity of the inner ghost. And after learning a lot of strange truths from the mermaid leader, even most of the villagers who have lived here for generations may not know, their information exploration of this copy can definitely reach the peak-
They have witnessed the origin of the gold and silver village, the truth that has been hidden for a long time, and even the existence of the real "god" .......
Their exploration value should have jumped from 68% to 100% a long time ago!
The reason why the settlement panel of the successful mission did not jump out is also because each settlement is at 00:00 in the middle of the night. Theoretically, as long as there is enough time, they can wait for the mission to succeed, and then leave the gold and silver village -
After that, the safe time given after the mission is completed should allow them to return to the system space without danger and in its entirety.
But the problem now is that they have to get out of here so that they don't sacrifice the dungeon boss's rations before the quest is completed.
Until the giant evil god with a weird fishy smell all over his body finds that the "buffet" is not enough, they'd better -
"Yuan Desire Snow!!"
It was the sound of the roar of the suit, even if the background sound was the tragic howl of the villagers, it was still very obvious, and Yuan Xuxue really turned his head slightly and looked at him.
His black eyes shone in the dim light, like falling stars.
The suit looked tense, very nervous and flustered, and a little inexplicably annoyed. He raised his head slightly, a little sweat sliding down his cheeks, wetting his skin. He pursed his lips, still roaring in a voice that seemed to be about to break, "Come here now—I know you can jump." Hurry up, right now! Let's get out of here with the teleportation items I've set up! ”
The suit was prepared in advance, and at this time it seemed that this hand was quite shrewd.
Fortunately, the sound of his shouting did not attract the attention of the existence of a huge monster that was not so much an "evil god". It still seems to be very active and excited to prey on the villagers, and has no time to try to taste the taste of other small, ant-like outsiders. Maybe it doesn't understand human language at all, or maybe the sound doesn't reach its auditory organs at all.
It's just that after urging Yuan Xuxue to come over, the suit took a deep breath again, his eyes looked a little indifferent, and added, "...... Alone. ”
"I know you want to save her."
The suit stared at Yuan Yuxue very upright, his gaze flat, "But that's ...... Impossible. ”
This dungeon world has been destroyed.
Devoured villagers, villages about to be destroyed, evil gods born of human evil thoughts, suits even doubt that this copy will be opened in the future—perhaps to a large extent, it will be sealed.
If they were facing those villagers, even a group of immortal monsters, the suit would not be afraid to retreat. Even because of the little "soft-heartedness" that was raised during this time, he was willing to help the captive human race whose fate was extremely tragic to rebel against fate again and stand on the ground.
But the premise is that the need for them to fight is "people".
But now, they are facing "God."
What if he saved the merfolk leader and her people? They have always lived in this world, and Yuan Yuxue can't take them away, and neither can other players. When they have completed their mission, they remain in this terrible world, still facing the fate of death or devouring, and at such a moment, how weak and powerless the temporary salvation becomes, like a self-consoling lie, is ...... Something that doesn't have to be done.
