Although the so-called "love stone" makes people lose the courage to love at first sight, players still have to go find it.
"Don't worry, dear. I will definitely find your own love stone for you this time."
"I'm so looking forward to it. I will also find your love stone~~"
The rough voice spoke sweet words, and the players walking on the rocky road leading to the woods on the island almost tripped, especially when they saw the two strong men still hugging each other, they wanted to poke their eyes out.
This game world is so terrible that it is a double destruction to the body and mind.
In addition to this "couple", there are other discordant voices.
"Wow, sister Shu, you are gone now. Even if I find the love stone, I can't give it to you. Why should I look for it?"
This is the sad "Brother Wang". Seeing him following the large group with tears and snot, someone said something mean, "Since your sister Shu is not here, you don't have to look for her."
"Brother Wang" immediately refused righteously, "How can that be? Even if Sister Shu is dead, she lives in my heart. I want to find a love stone for her."
Player: "..."
They understood that even if their brains were made love-brained, they could still justify themselves and force explanations for their actions.
"Brother Nian, I will definitely find the Love Stone earlier than they do and give it to you. My heart is just like the Love Stone, and I will always be loyal to you."
"No need, your love stone is not for me anyway." Brother Nian said coldly.
The skinny monkey immediately said, "How could that be? If not you, who else should I give it to? You are my love."
Brother Nian couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Didn't you give the fish eyes I gave you to that fish-faced monster last night?"
"What fish-faced monster? Isn't that you, Brother Nian? The Brother Nian in my dream is more gentle."
Brother Nian: “…”
Seeing Brother Nian’s livid face, the players couldn’t help but feel a little sympathy again.
Yesterday they were misled by the housekeeper's words and thought that they could complete the task by exchanging fish eyes with each other. However, they didn't know that they were giving the fish eyes to the fish-faced monster in their dreams.
Sober players all know that it is a fish-faced monster, but players who have eaten sashimi firmly regard the fish-faced monster as their "lover".
They estimated that this "love stone" was also given to the fish-faced monster in the dream.
When they arrived at the woods, the players looked at each other and chose to act separately.
It may have rained heavily last night, and the humidity in the woods was very high, with water drops sliding down from the leaves at any time. The gaps between the trees were very tight, resulting in a weak light in the woods. Looking inside, it was impossible to see clearly what was happening three meters away.
Just as Gu Jiu and the others entered, a huge drop of water fell on their heads, bursting in their hair with a "pop" and sliding down their face.
The water droplets were cold, and when they slid across the warm skin, one could not help but shiver.
Maybe it was because there was a heavy rain last night, the temperature in the woods was extremely low. Soon after I entered, I felt cold all over.
Gu Jiu put on his autumn jacket and took out a transparent raincoat and waterproof boots.
The others were similar to her. Experienced players would carry daily necessities such as raincoats in their bags, which were suitable for use in this kind of environment.
With a raincoat and waterproof boots, activities in the woods are finally not that difficult.
The woods were very quiet, with only the occasional sound of raindrops falling.
The further they went into the woods, the darker the light became. In order to see the road clearly, Gu Jiu and the others had to take out flashlights. The flashlights flickered through the trees, casting spots of light.
The road in the woods was not easy to walk on. Even with the physique of a C-level player, he was still slightly affected.
Ruan Yuan's voice suddenly rang out: "A place like this is full of humus. Can we really find the love stone?"
"If we can't find it, the consequences will be bad. It would be better if we can find it." Ge Guang sighed, "I guess it will be no easier to find this love stone than to find fish eyes in the sea yesterday."
Ruan Yuan turned to look at Gu Jiu, "Miss, what do you think?"
Gu Jiu and Lu Ji were walking together. The light around them was too dim, which affected her vision to a certain extent. Fortunately, with the help of Lu Ji and the reminder of the little paper man standing on her shoulder, she did not get too embarrassed.
Not only her, but also Ruan Yuan, Ge Guang and others had paper objects on their shoulders.
This is using paper as an auxiliary tool.
Gu Jiu said, "NPCs in the game world shouldn't release quests that players can't find. There must be hints..." She looked at the shadowy trees in front of her, "Well, if I see that fish-faced monster again tonight, I'll have another reason to beat it up."
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help laughing.
Players encountered a fish-faced monster in their dreams for two consecutive nights, and their reactions were different, but most of them chose to attack directly.
Unfortunately, in the dream, no matter how violent the player is, he cannot kill the fish-faced monster.
Since we didn’t see the “Love Stone” along the way, we had to go deeper into the woods.
Ruan Yuan asked worriedly, "This forest seems quite large. Will we get lost if we keep walking like this?"
"It's okay. My companion puppet can remember the way along the way. Just follow it when you go back." Qi Yuheng said, glancing at the companion puppet sitting on his shoulder.
After hearing what he said, everyone went deeper into the woods with peace of mind.
The further we went inside, the heavier the moisture in the air. Our hair outside our raincoat was dripping with water, and drops of water quickly formed on our skin.
The water vapor was wet and sticky, and even the raincoats on their bodies seemed extremely heavy, causing great inconvenience to their movements.
This feeling is really bad, but there is nothing I can do but continue searching in the woods.
After searching for a whole morning without any results, one can't help but become anxious and impatient.
"Let's take a rest first." Gu Jiu said, took out a few chairs from his bag, placed them on the ground covered with humus, and sat down first.
The others followed suit and sat down.
When the four legs of the chair pressed down, the humus made a popping sound as it could not bear the weight, and was crushed to leave a lot of water stains.
Everyone wiped the condensed water from their faces, they were all tired and hungry.
Lu Ji took out a bottle of milk and handed it to Gu Jiu, asking her to drink some water.
After drinking a bottle of milk, Gu Jiu said, "Let's eat something first."
She took out another table and put the hot food on it. The aroma of the food flowed in the moist and dark air, soothing everyone's tired and cold bodies to some extent.
After lunch and rest, they continued to walk inside.
I don't know how long I walked, but suddenly Qi Yuheng covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and said with a pale face, "There is a strange smell."
Gu Jiu followed up by saying, "It's that rotten smell again. It's really unpleasant."
Ruan Yuan and the others were perked up and asked quickly, "Really? Is it a rotten smell?"
After getting a positive answer, everyone understood that they were very close to their destination. They did not doubt Qi Yuheng and Gu Jiu's noses at all. One of them was an extremely mysophobic man, and the other had congenital amblyopia which made his other five senses prominent. If they felt uncomfortable, it was certain.
Thinking about the appearance of the "love stone", they had no doubt that it was a heart. Since it was made of flesh and blood, it would of course have a strange smell.
Everyone quickly headed towards the direction of the smell.
This made it difficult for Qi Yuheng, a man with obsessive-compulsive disorder, because he had to try very hard to resist the urge to vomit. In the end, he had no choice but to put on a gas mask.
He has already given up. There aren't many people here anyway, so if he is seen, then so be it.
Gu Jiu did not wear a gas mask. In such a place, it would have a great impact on her eyesight. If she wore a gas mask, she would not be able to judge the air flow. She could only endure it.
Because she had to endure the impact of the strange smell in the air, her face looked very bad and her temper was on the verge of exploding.
"Look over there." Ruan Yuan noticed something unusual in front of him and quickly reminded his teammates.
Everyone looked over and could vaguely see some dim light through the layers of tree shadows. This light was like sunlight breaking through the dense tree shadows and falling to the ground.
The strange smell also came from this side.
They quickened their pace and hurried over there.
Finally, we passed through the dense forest and the view became wider. At the same time, we could also see the sky of Love Island. Although the sky was still gloomy, at least the view was no longer dark.
They looked around. There were few trees here and the area was very open. They could see scattered stones piled on the ground. These stones were large and small and distributed irregularly.
There are weeds all around, and from time to time you can hear rustling sounds in the grass, as if there are many insects moving around in the grass, which makes people's scalp tingle.
Suddenly, Ge Guang cried out.
When everyone looked over, they saw Ge Guang kicking something out. The thing rolled through the dense grass and landed at their feet. It turned out to be a skull.
This is a human skull.
Seeing this thing, they were not surprised at all. How could there not be things like skeletons and corpses in the game world
Everyone continued to move forward calmly, and under the leadership of Gu Jiu, they finally arrived at the place where the fishy smell was coming from.
Behind a huge rock, there was a corpse. The sternum of the corpse was broken and the bones were white and eerie. But among the bones was a dried heart.
Seeing this scene, everyone present showed disgust on their faces.
"What love stone? It's clearly a heart." Ruan Yuan was really disgusted.
Lu Haidi touched his chin and said, "Strange, the corpse has become like this, why is the heart still there?"
His girlfriend said, "Don't be surprised. This is a game world. Don't use normal logic to look at it."
Lu Haidi had nothing to say.
The appearance of this heart is exactly the same as the one the butler showed them. Perhaps because it looks like dried bacon, its size is much smaller than that of a normal human heart.
The fishy and rotten smell on it is also very strong.
Thinking that they were looking for this disgusting thing, Qi Yuheng had a violent urge to kill the fish-faced monster.
This heart was discovered by Gu Jiu, who then packed it up.
Gu Jiu’s expression was also full of disgust, but there was nothing he could do no matter how disgusted he was, so he could only pinch his nose and pretend.
Then, they continued to search around and found several more corpses. Each corpse had a heart. Each person picked up one and put it away.
Just when Lu Ji put away the last heart, a cold wind blew over.
Everyone looked vigilantly in the direction where the wind was coming from, and saw pairs of green eyes lighting up in the woods opposite, lurking there like vicious wolves.
"Let's go!" Qi Yuheng spoke decisively.
However, it was too late.
