Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

Chapter 106: gone

Views:

The area of this island is very large, and the group has not walked out of this rainforest for more than an hour.

Jacket raised his knife and fell, cut off the branches in front of him, and walked over.

With the weather and a lot of exercise, he was covered in sweat, and he looked like he was pulled out of the water.

Not to mention the players behind him.

The woman with glasses was fine, but the woman in the long skirt had difficulty moving. She had fallen many times. Her beautiful long dress was scratched, and she leaned against the tree very weakly.

"No, I can't walk anymore, can I go back?"

The jacket glanced coldly at the woman in the long skirt.

The woman in the long skirt didn't get any answer, she pulled the leaf on top of her head as if venting her anger, but after pulling it, she suddenly discovered something was wrong. She slowly raised her head, and in a mass of emerald green, she met a particularly abrupt shape.

There was a group of snakes coiled on the branch, the snake head raised up and the mouth made a "hissing" sound, slowly bent down, and stared coldly at the long skirt woman who was close at hand.

The woman in the long skirt had never encountered such a situation before, her legs were too soft to move, she wanted to ask for help, but her mouth seemed to be blocked by something, so she couldn't say a word.

The snake sensed the weakness of its prey, a fierce light flashed in its eyes, the scales under its abdomen rubbed against the bark, and the snake's body stretched into a straight line, like a flash of electric light, rushing towards the neck of the long skirt woman.

The woman in the long skirt couldn't move at all, she could only wait to die with her eyes wide open.

And it all happened so fast that the other players didn't react.

Seeing that the fangs were close at hand, a hand stretched out from the woman in the long skirt and pinched the snake's seven inches tightly.

The woman in the long skirt escaped and fell softly to the ground.

The snake that was ready to go was instantly restrained, and its tail curled up weakly.

Shen Dongqing shook the snake in his hand: "Can I eat it?"

The color of this snake is emerald green, and it looks delicious.

Zhou Wenyan held his hand that was about to move: "You can deal with it."

Now that this condition can be dealt with, Shen Dongqing can only put down the snake's body regretfully.

Now others have responded.

The woman with glasses pushed up her glasses and looked at the snake on the ground: "There is actually a snake here."

Along the way, the rain forest is very clean, and there are no small beasts, so how do these snakes live

This may be a key point.

The tattooed man still hadn't learned enough lessons, and said carelessly: "We still have to ask for help outside, what's the use of staring at a snake?"

The woman with glasses glanced at him, making the tattooed man take a step back.

Fortunately, the cobra woman didn't have time to argue with an idiot and said, "Be careful next, there must be more than one snake here."

Zhou Wenyan looked down at the snake curled up in a ball.

I don't know if it was because of the angle of the throw, but the bodies that fell on the ground were connected end to end, forming a ring.

After this little episode, the group continued to move forward.

After walking for another half an hour, even the jacket can't stand it. Walking in the rain forest consumes a lot of water. In addition, there is no shortage of fresh water, and there are symptoms of dehydration.

There is no way to move forward, players can only stop and take a break.

After making sure there were no snakes nearby, the group sat down under a tree.

The woman with glasses said: "It's impossible to walk all the time now. This island is so big that we can't figure it out."

The jacket took off his jacket, wiped the sweat on his face, and sat on the stone: "Since we have already come here, we can only continue to go down."

Woman with glasses: "We've all wasted so much time, and we don't have any clues. What does the game want us to do? What is the purpose?"

The tattooed man said in a low voice, "It's better to listen to me and light a fire on the beach so that ships and planes can see the distress signal."

The woman with glasses became a little impatient: "It's said that this is not a real world, and it's not certain whether there are passing ships or not."

Tattooed man: "What if there is?"

The woman in the long skirt also said weakly: "Yes, this rainforest is too deep, and there are snakes. We might as well go back to the beach and try his method."

The tattooed man won the support of one person at once, and he couldn't help but feel more confident. He turned his head to look at the other two people who had no sense of existence, and asked, "How about you?"

Shen Dongqing was obviously not in the state, and blinked his eyes blankly: "Huh?"

The tattooed man had seen Shen Dongqing's ability to catch snakes with his bare hands just now, and he really wanted to win Shen Dongqing, he said, "Do you want to keep going forward or go back?"

Shen Dongqing thought for a while: "Go ahead." He said a very classic sentence, "It's all coming."

Tattooed man: …

Do you really consider this a tourist

Jacket stood up: "Let's go, we have to find a water source as soon as possible."

Players are also human, no matter what ability they have, there is nothing they can do in this natural environment.

However, the jackets are not too panicky. After all, if the game really wants to kill them, just give them a closed room and starve them to death. There is no need to go around in such a big circle.

Fortunately, I walked out of the rainforest and finally found a lake.

There is a lake in the heart of the island. The area of the lake is quite large, and it is impossible to see the edge at a glance.

The jacket couldn't wait to walk to the lake, scooped a handful of lake water, and spit it out after a sip. The lake water was salty and astringent, and it was clearly sea water.

"This is also sea water!" The jacket "Bah Bah" sounded twice.

No fresh water.

The players all sat on the ground. They all looked extremely embarrassed. They were covered in mud and fallen leaves from the rainforest. Only Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan were better.

Shen Dongqing sat cross-legged under a tree, looking up at the spot of light falling from above: "It's so quiet."

Hearing what he said, other players also noticed.

Not only are there no beasts, but there are not even birdsong and insects, as if the whole island is a dead island.

The woman in the long skirt whispered, "It's unlikely, this doesn't fit the biological chain."

Without any living creatures, this rainforest could not have grown so lush.

The tattooed man said: "It is said that this is a game world, maybe it is not set at all."

Woman with glasses: "This situation is rare, and why there are no other creatures, but there are snakes."

Just as they were contemplating, the woman in the long skirt suddenly said, "Do you have any other clothes?"

The other players looked over.

The woman in the long skirt lowered her head embarrassedly: "My skirt..."

I don’t know how many years no one has walked through this rainforest. There is no way to walk. The women in long skirts are wearing skirts, and their legs are scratched with blood marks. The skirts are even more tattered and tattered.

Jacket handed the jacket over.

The woman in the long skirt said "thank you" and tied her coat around her waist.

Tattooed man: "Women are just in the way and wear skirts."

The woman in the long skirt explained: "I changed it when I came in, not my original clothes..."

The jacket raised his voice: "What did you say?"

The woman in the long skirt was startled, but repeated it in a low voice.

Jacket: "Why did the game change your clothes?"

At first, I thought that the key point was on this island, but I went to the island to search for a long time, but I didn't find anything useful, not even fresh water.

Now it seems that the key point may still be on the player.

The woman in the long skirt recalled: "I was told by a voice that I was the girlfriend of a rich second generation. The rich second generation took me on a cruise ship to play at sea, and then I was at sea as soon as I opened my eyes."

The tattooed man also seemed to remember: "It seems that I am the rich second generation."

Jacket asked: "Besides this, did you say anything else?"

After all, these two are newcomers, and they were frightened as soon as they came in. I still remember any reminders, and I only remember them now.

"I don't remember clearly." The tattooed man said, "It seems that there is a mysterious island nearby. I wanted to come over, so I found a bodyguard and set off with my girlfriend."

Jacket: "Remember the name of this mysterious island?"

Tattooed man: "Where do I remember this? It seems to be a long list of names, or bird language, or some kind of virtue. It's a mess."

The face of the jacket is not very good.

The core characters were given to two newcomers. The other people were set up as bodyguards, so they must not know anything, but these two were newcomers, and this game sincerely wanted to deal with them.

The tattooed man who remembered his identity was already shaking. He pointed at the group of people and said, "You all have to listen to me. Let's turn around and go back to the beach now and wait for others to rescue us."

The woman with glasses rolled her eyes.

In order to save physical strength, the jacket ignored this idiot.

At this time, Shen Dongqing let out a "Huh".

After the other players went through the last big fish experience, no one turned their heads at all.

The tattooed man who lost face was even more angry and shouted: "Are you an idiot? You just yell at something..."

The tattooed man roared and looked over, noticing the gaze of the man next to Shen Dongqing, his whole body shuddered, and all the remaining words were forcibly held back.

Shen Dongqing defended seriously: "I'm not an idiot, there are footprints here."

The other players were talking there just now. He had nothing to do. He took a stick to write and draw on the ground, and accidentally found a trace on the ground.

The woman with glasses hurried over to take a look, and sure enough, there was a trace under the cover of the fallen leaves, which seemed to be the trace of someone or a beast walking by.

She raised her head, followed the traces, and found that she went deep into the rainforest, not the way they came, but the other direction.

The jacket also stood up: "Go and have a look."

The tattooed man is not very happy.

The girl in the long skirt was so tired that she couldn't get up when she sat down.

Shen Dongqing looked left and right, raised her hand and said, "I'm tired, and I'm really hungry."

Zhou Wenyan took his hand: "Then take a rest."

The jacket was speechless.

This group of newcomers, a tattooed man has a brain problem, a long skirt woman is not very good, and there are two paddling, this game field is really too difficult, right

There is no way, the women in the jacket and glasses can't stand it anymore, so they can only take a rest.

The rest is in the evening.

The players picked up some firewood and lit the bonfire, and then simply distilled and filtered the seawater in the lake with the items they carried, and obtained fresh water that could be drunk.

After being replenished with water, the players slowed down a bit.

Shen Dongqing searched around, but found no straw on the island. The Yin House Kitchen Card is very useful, but without straws connecting the two worlds, it is wasted.

He leaned on Zhou Wenyan's body and said weakly, "I'm so hungry—"

Zhou Wenyan lowered his head and kissed Shen Dongqing's cheek: "I'll go see if there are any fish in the lake."

Shen Dongqing's eyes suddenly lit up.

The water of Daoxin Lake is clear and blue, reflecting the sunset above.

Shen Dongqing half bent down, reached out and touched the surface of the lake, stirring up a ripple.

"No fish." Shen Dongqing turned her head sideways.

Zhou Wenyan kicked off his shoes and then took off his shirt, and said, "I'll go down and have a look."

Shen Dongqing: "Can you swim?"

Zhou Wenyan: "Yes."

Shen Dongqing also kicked off his shoes: "Then teach me!"

Zhou Wenyan did not agree immediately, but tried the depth of Daoxin Lake and threw a fist-sized stone down, but there was no response at all.

"No, it's too deep." Zhou Wenyan said, "Go back and teach you."

Shen Dongqing nodded obediently.

Zhou Wenyan touched his head: "Dear me, let's catch fish for you to eat."

After saying that, he went into the water.

Daoxin Lake is very deep, it is estimated that it is connected to the sea outside, and the inside is full of the smell of seawater.

Zhou Wenyan went downstream for a while, and found that it was dark and could not see anything. It was impossible to go further without a diving suit. He caught two fish and swam back.

The fish came ashore first.

The fish out of the water fluttered with great force, splashing the sea water.

Shen Dongqing poked the fish and commented, "It looks a little strange."

Zhou Wenyan stroked his wet hair and said, "It's a fish in the sea."

Shen Dongqing asked a particularly important question: "Can I eat it?"

"can."

Shen Dongqing's eyes looking at the fish suddenly became kinder.

The fish that can be eaten is the good fish.

There is a lot of movement here, and it can't hide from other players.

After a day's trek, the players were also tired and hungry. Now there are fish in the lake, and seeing that Zhou Wenyan was not in danger, they went down to catch fish one after another.

However, the woman in the long skirt couldn't swim, so she had to watch it and help clean up the fish she caught.

After catching the fish, both the woman in glasses and the jacket came ashore safely, and only the man with tattoo was still dawdling below. The tattooed man gradually moved away from the shore because of his good water quality.

It's just that before his words were finished, the awakening on his face twisted and turned into panic: "No, no, save me, save me—"

The tattooed man struggled to get to the shore, but he was halfway through his swim, and before he got close to the shore, everyone on the shore saw a dark thing encircling his waist, pulling him with an irresistible force. go back.

The tattooed man kept flapping his hands.

It was useless, the ability of underwater creatures was not something he could resist. He could only be slowly pulled into the water. When the top of his head submerged in the water, a series of bubbles emerged from below, and only a trace of blood remained.

The blood was quickly washed away by the lake.

There was dead silence on the shore.

When they thought that they had just passed the god of death, the woman in glasses and the jacket were completely speechless, and there might be important news from the tattooed man, they became even more autistic.

After being quiet for a while, there was a sudden sound of "Zila" beside him.

Then Shen Dongqing asked, "Is it ready?"

Zhou Wenyan replied, "It's almost time."

The two of them were still grilling fish there like no one else.

The woman in the long skirt shivered and said, "People, people are gone?"

Although the tattooed man is quite annoying, it is still unacceptable that he is a life and just disappears in front of him.

The woman with glasses pushed up her glasses and said indifferently, "Don't go near this lake next."

The others were all catching fish around the lake, without disturbing the monsters inside. The tattooed man also killed himself. When he got to the depths, maybe the monsters woke up and could no longer venture into the water.

Although the glasses girl and the jacket are old players, in this game, in the face of life and death, both new players and old players are the same.

Games will not be merciful for this.

Because of the death of a player, this grilled fish tasted unpalatable, the woman in the long skirt couldn't eat it without taking two bites, and Shen Dongqing was uncharacteristically, not touching much.

The woman with glasses tore off a piece of fish and stuffed it into her mouth. Seeing their appearance, she persuaded: "You have to eat more, or you will lose your strength tomorrow. Others' lives belong to others, only your own. my own."

The woman in the long skirt listened to the advice and forced herself to eat a fish.

On the other hand, Shen Dongqing remained motionless.

Out of kindness, the woman with glasses wanted to say a few more words, but before she could say anything, she heard Shen Dongqing looking at the grilled fish melancholy, and sighed deeply: "It's too bad."

Woman with glasses: "Cough cough—"

It turned out that it wasn't because of the tattooed man's death that he was sad, but simply couldn't eat it. This, this... The woman with glasses was a little breathless.

This fish was handled carelessly, and there was no other seasoning. It was fishy and salty. Shen Dongqing hadn't eaten something so unpalatable for a long time, and he didn't want to move.

Zhou Wenyan coaxed patiently, which made him reluctantly take two bites.

After Shen Dongqing finished eating the fish, he began to complain: "This game is too much!"

Jacket felt the same way, and agreed: "Yes, yes."

Shen Dongqing: "What kind of broken island is this!"

Jacket: "Yes, yes."

Shen Dongqing: "I don't have any delicious food at all, I have to leave this shabby place early!"

Jacket: "Yes... ah?"

It turns out that the key point is what you eat? Does this person really care about the game

If the game heard what the jacket was thinking, he would probably cry on the spot.

Not only did Shen Dongqing not put the game in his eyes, but he even stepped on it countless times under his feet.

Jacket silently bowed his head to eat fish.

There is no stable light source at night, and it is difficult to move. Players simply rest by the lake for the night, and plan to follow the traces on the ground to see it the next day.

Since a player had an accident in the lake, he was not sure whether the monsters in the island's heart lake would come ashore, so he could only take turns to watch the night.

It was finally dawn, and as soon as it was dawn, the players woke up.

It may be because of too many fallen leaves, and the traces on the ground are still relatively clear. I walked all the way and found a cave at the end. The entrance of the cave was still scattered with the footprints of some people.

Woman with glasses: "There are people living here."

As long as there are people on this island, it's fine. Someone is equivalent to having NPCs, and they can receive quests without having to turn around like a headless fly.

Zhou Wenyan said coldly: "It's not life, it's holding a ceremony."

The woman with glasses turned her head and looked over: "Why?"

Shen Dongqing took the lead and said, "Guess."

Jacket said impatiently: "If you don't know, don't talk nonsense."

Zhou Wenyan didn't explain, only smiled at Shen Dongqing.

The group took turns entering the cave.

There are some wooden tools and rudimentary pottery scattered around the cave.

The girl in the long skirt didn't know what happened, she let out a scream, and stepped back in a hurry.

Jacket has had enough of these newcomers who will only do a disservice, and said sharply: "What are you doing?"

The words of the woman in the long skirt are not easy to say: "There are some..."

Jacket: "What?"

He walked over and saw a skull rolling where the woman in the long skirt stood just now.

The skulls are small and may have been chopped off before they were minors.

The jacket squatted down to check, and found that a wooden stick was stuck on the top of the skull, and there were many skulls on the side. There was a hole on the top of the head, as if they had been skewered together to make a skewer.

It really looks like a cult activity.

Shen Dongqing: "It's really boring."

Woman with glasses: "Huh?"

Shen Dongqing: "It's a cult again, this game has no creativity at all!"

Playing around is just a few elements, either a cult or a cult, and there is no innovation at all.

Fortunately, this game is mandatory to play, otherwise, if it is just voluntary, I am afraid that the server will be closed in less than three days.

The woman with glasses reacted: "Aren't you a novice?"

Shen Dongqing was puzzled: "Do I look good?"

Woman with glasses: … It really looks like that.

After all, looking at the reactions of these two people in the game, they are either pure newcomers or real bosses. The glasses girl subconsciously thinks about the newcomers. How can she think she is a boss

The voice of the jacket came from the other side: "There are murals here!"

In the depths of the cave, a series of murals were painted on the walls, and in the middle of the cave there was a deep pit, in which there were densely packed corpses.

At first glance, the simple cult aborigines performed rituals here.

Shen Dongqing leaned over to look at the mural.

The murals are very simple, similar to comic strips, indicating that the IQs of the aborigines here are not very high, but people who can believe in cults usually have low IQs, and there is no problem with logic.

The content of the mural is that a group of stickman found an island, they rowed a raft to the island, and found something on the island, thinking that they had met a god.

So every once in a while, they will go to the island to perform sacrifices, hoping that the snake god on the island will protect them. At the end of the mural, the aborigines also drew a snake with the title of the black snake head, forming a circle.

"So those snakes are raised by these aborigines." The jacket analyzed, "And looking at the equipment of the aborigines, they live not far from this island, otherwise it is impossible to go very far with a raft."

Woman with glasses: "Maybe the game is for us to go to places where the aborigines live."

The woman in the long skirt said, "But we don't have any means of transportation..."

Jacket said: "Let's go back first to see if the yacht can be used, but the two places are not far apart. From this direction, we should be able to reach the place where the aborigines live."

The direction is also carefully drawn on the mural, for fear that others will not find it.

The players thought very well, but when the group returned according to the marked path, they found that the yacht stranded on the beach had disappeared.
