There was a strange, dark quality about him that made people's feet go cold and their hair stand on end when they saw him. Psychologically, the players did not feel panic. Instead, this reaction was more like an instinctive response to danger.
Compared to the previous "staff member", this one just made them feel... uncomfortable.
The messy black hair swayed, revealing the knotty and protruding scar underneath. This "special effects makeup" was scary enough, and under the dim light, the players seemed to have misjudged it. They felt that the scar was alive, twisting under the skin like a worm pupa wriggling, which made people feel even colder in their hearts.
The exposed scarlet eye glanced vaguely towards the players.
"… "
Everyone was silent for a moment, standing still without taking any action.
Although the DM said that they had gained the monster's trust and it was okay to follow it now, instinctively, no one wanted to get close to the NPC, and both sides kept a subtle distance. The NPC didn't move, and the players didn't move either.
Yuan Yuxue stood slightly behind, obscured by the figures of Xiao A and Xiao B.
He looked at the NPC through the gap, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and his expression became indifferent and focused as he looked at the other person.
That was the look Yuan Yuxue would have when she noticed her enemy.
He took another step forward silently, blocking his human companion behind him, and raised his slender fingers, placing them near his waist - although this action seemed just casual and light, there was no doubt that as long as there was any abnormal movement, the black sheathed long sword would appear in his hand.
The eyes hidden under the messy long hair rolled around... It didn't look like the flexibility of human eyes, but more like the eyes of some kind of animal. When Yuan Yuxue took that step forward, the scarlet eyeballs naturally locked onto Yuan Yuxue's position.
The aura emanating from Yuan Yuxue seemed to become even colder. Even Rabbit couldn't help but turn his head slightly and noticed Yuan Yuxue, who always looked very thin and "harmless".
However, surprisingly, the NPC that locked onto Yuan Yuxue did not launch any unusual attack. "He" turned his eyes away slightly and focused all his attention on the thing he took out in his hand.
The light was not bright, so the players didn't notice where this thing came from - it seemed to be from his chest? Did it appear out of thin air
Not likely.
The players thought hesitantly that the light was too dim and the atmosphere was too tense, so they might have seen it wrong.
The NPC took out the props they had thrown to each other before, which were the lungs and the stomach.
The model is very detailed and realistic, but it is still different from real human organs.
But at this moment, it seemed that the lack of authenticity was concealed because of the lighting problem. The two bloody organs held in "his" hands looked very "fresh", with dark red liquid dripping from them.
The NPC suddenly lowered his head and held the "fresh" organ to his mouth. His black hair fell down, covering his face, and everyone could only see the bright red flesh lumps flowing out of his palm through the gaps in his hair. The flesh lumps seemed to be unable to be held, but they shrank little by little, and the players saw the NPC's cheeks constantly moving and heard the extremely strange chewing sounds in the air.
