"Epic-level items or skill inheritance?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi suddenly asked such a question to Tianhuo in front of him.
"Are these the things your master left for you?"
"… How did you know?"
After listening to Bai Zhi's words, Tianhuo's body visibly stiffened.
"It's very simple, because you would rather commit suicide yourself than let the other party succeed."
Bai Zhi shrugged slightly.
"After the player dies, the items in the backpack will be recovered by the system, unless they were taken out before. So as long as you die, the things your master left for you will not be lost to others. It’s in your hands. Isn’t it just a matter of staring at the other party when he loses both his life and property?”
"... I just made a joke, and you can reason so much for me?"
After hearing Bai Zhi's answer, Tianhuo's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Shouldn't you think that I'm mentally ill like the cute guy next to you?"
"Oh, because I'm a genius."
Bai Zhi spoke calmly.
"Geniuses can always think of things that others can't think of. There's no need to be too surprised."
"...You guys leave quickly. If you can, take my brother with you, and take as many other survivors as you can. No matter how many people believe it in the end, at least I want to announce the truth of the matter. "
After a moment of silence, Tianhuo waved his hand.
"Even if those two patrolmen really shamelessly come here to eradicate the roots, I won't catch them easily. At the very least, I will make them smell fishy. If you want to catch fish, please be prepared to kill the fish and break the net first. .”
"Wait a moment... By the way, there are two pieces of news now, one good news and one bad news."
Suddenly, Bai Zhi reached out and clicked something on the void in front of him, and then he spoke.
"The bad news is that the safe haven was opened three minutes ago, but it was not opened in this area. We may have to wait another six hours."
"What's the good news?"
Tianhuo frowned slightly.
"Just now the system prompted that two new players have arrived in this wilderness. One of them is on his way here on horseback. He seems to be quite familiar with the route here."
Bai Zhi spread his hands.
"If nothing unexpected happens, my previous speculation has come true. The other party is quite strong. Riding a horse in and out among thousands of skinned living corpses is like no one's land. In about half an hour, we will be gone. We can make it to this city.”
"It's him… ?"
After listening to Bai Zhi's story, Tianhuo's expression changed obviously.
"What, you know him?"
Bai Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I've heard of it, but I don't know the real name. The player ID is [Jijian Chushuang]. He is a guy with a pretty bad reputation. He has a perfect level summon [Earth Horse], which is quite difficult to deal with."
Tianhuo looked gloomy.
"I've had a few run-ins with him before."
"Then can you win the fight?"
"As long as my master is here, I can win."
"That's it?"
"...I can hold it off for a while, and you can run away with my brother and the others. Then when I really can't hold on any longer, I will blow myself up and hurt him as much as possible."
Tianhuo gritted his teeth slightly.
"It's impossible for everyone to leave."
"There's still half an hour left. Please tell me about your master's current situation."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi asked.
"What is your master's current situation? Is there any possibility of recovery? If your master can recover, everything will be much easier to handle."
—At this time, [Ji Jian Chushuang] was on the way on horseback.
"... She was contaminated by the source of the curse. It can be said that my master is now the ghost story itself and has become the new source of ghost stories... I have made many attempts before, but the final result ended in failure. "
As if he had made some determination, Tianhuo took a deep breath in his mouth.
"Actually, I am only one step away from success. If I can complete the last missing conditions, my master can still survive... My plan is still one step away."
"What's the plan? Tell me about it?"
Bai Zhi asked with some interest.
"... The source of the curse has been integrated with my master for a long time. If I want my master to return to normal, the first step is to deprive the source of the curse from my master's body, and then completely remove the source of the curse. wipe out."
"That's it?"
"That's it? Can you completely eliminate a ghost story?"
Turning his head and looking aside, Tianhuo spoke calmly.
"I have a way to deprive the source of the curse from my master's body, but I cannot destroy it. Even if I swallow the source of the curse, it will be the same. It will last forever."
"Have you tried it before?"
Bai Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"...Yes, and then I was almost beaten to death by my master."
"Completely eliminate... What is the source of the curse you are talking about? Do you know about this?"
After a moment of thinking, Bai Zhi asked Tianhuo in front of him.
"And besides, are you sure you just need to eliminate them?"
"My master is very powerful. She is a unique genius. As long as I can do this, I can definitely make my master wake up."
Tianhuo spoke with a stubborn look on his face.
"I don't know what the source of the curse is. Although I have gotten it before, I was almost beaten to death by my master that time. It looks like a small black square, just holding it in my hand , it will make my sanity value decrease crazily."
"Well... how about you take a look at this thing."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi took out the [Black Rubik's Cube] from his backpack, and then threw it to the other party.
"Compared with this [Black Rubik's Cube], what is the difference between the source of the curse and it?"
"Dark Rubik's Cube? What is that...!?"
With some confusion, he reached out and took the black Rubik's Cube that was thrown over. Before Tianhuo finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed wildly.
She hurriedly threw the Rubik's Cube out again, and covered her hands fiercely with a livid complexion.
Under her skin, bubbles were rising one after another, as if something was trying to break through the barrier of flesh and grow out from under the skin.
After a long time, the abnormality under the skin gradually disappeared. Tianhuo suddenly realized that she had broken out in a cold sweat at some point. She raised her head and looked at Bai Zhi, who was playing with the Rubik's Cube in front of her. She fiercely frowned.
"What the hell was that thing you threw over just now!?"
"Oh, it's just a Rubik's Cube, don't worry about it."
Bai Zhi waved his hand.
To be honest, he didn't expect that others would be in such a situation after getting this Rubik's Cube, and then revive again after leaving his side... [Alienation Curse]
Is this thing... so dangerous
—At this time, [Ji Jian Chushuang] was still on the way on horseback.
I recommend the one in the lost river, drag it out and beat it to death... q
Volume One: The Gap between Illusion and Reality: Chapter 426 Chapter 420 New Players
In the dark wilderness, heavy rain poured down.
"I always feel like this guy is quite a bitch..."
Standing in the distance, Bai Zhi's expression looked slightly subtle as he watched the figure riding a white horse without any mottled colors coming and going freely among the group of skinned living corpses.
Because not only was the other party riding a white horse, but the clothes he was wearing were also quite coquettishly changed into a white prince costume from the Middle Ages.
A layer of faint golden shield was activated on the white horse's body, crushing the skinned corpses one by one under the horse's hooves, and at the same time blocking the pouring rain from the outside world.
Although the opponent's mount is only one level higher than his Ragdoll cat, the perfect level is not so easy to achieve. On this point alone, it is enough to see the huge gap between the two sides.
—Shadow puppets, sharing vision and skills.
On the other side, while he and Tianhuo were having related exchanges in the library, on this side, he was always looking for a safe evacuation point.
It would be best if the first six-hour refresh could bring Xu Lian out, but his luck was obviously a bit bad.
"It's a pity that the attributes of the shadow puppet are only 50% of the attributes of the main body. Even after strengthening, the strength only reaches 17 points, which is not enough to use [Silver Death]. Otherwise, I really want to give this bastard The guy came and took a shot..."
He shook his head with regret. After summoning a shadow guard to follow him from a distance so that he could report on the progress at any time, Bai Zhi turned over and mounted the Ragdoll cat and ran in the other direction.
There are two players coming in this time, and he has also mastered the position of the other one. At this time, it is okay to have a little contact.
… … … … … … … …
"Wow, it's raining so hard..."
Looking up at the sky, a girl who came to this copy three minutes ago looked slightly surprised.
The girl had a delicate face and was carrying a satchel on her back. Her long hair was tied into a side ponytail behind her head.
A circular transparent protective cover that self-diffuses from the pendant on the girl's chest blocks the rain from the outside world, and also prevents the shoes from sinking into the dark mud.
"Difficulty B to S, two players have already arrived here before me... Has six hours passed?"
Clicking on the system interface in front of her with one hand, the girl nodded thoughtfully when she saw the relevant introduction about this copy popping up.
"But it's raining so heavily here, the sky is so dark, and I don't have any suitable transportation..."
After looking around, the girl's face suddenly became bitter.
"Survival in the wild again? I don't know what the dangers are lurking here... I hate this dungeon."
After thinking for a moment, the girl took off the satchel she was carrying, and then took out five palm-sized humanoid puppets.
"It's raining heavily, the temperature is low, and it's still dark and heading into the wilderness... The decision is yours, go for it! Fire Puppet!! Water Puppet!!"
Seeing that there was no one around, she decisively picked out two puppets and threw them out. The girl shouted loudly and powerfully.
When the two thrown puppets came into contact with the rain, their size immediately expanded rapidly. In just a few seconds, they turned into large puppets two meters tall.
"Okay, the fire puppet will stay here to keep watch and make a fire while the water puppet goes to help set up a campsite. Call me when it's ready."
Pointing at the two obviously different-colored dolls in front of her with her finger, and assigning tasks to them respectively, the girl sat down on the dirt floor with her backpack and legs in her arms.
-Due to the protective shield around her body, she didn't have to worry about her clothes getting wet.
As the girl gave her orders, the two puppets also faithfully carried out her orders.
The water puppet picked up the big backpack on the ground and began to look for a flat spot around him to set up a tent. The fire puppet sat down next to the girl. The red stripes engraved on the wooden body lit up, and the entire puppet instantly turned into a The large heater instantly evaporates into water vapor when rain hits it.
For a moment, water vapor swirled around the girl.
"Wrong, wrong! You idiot!! I didn't tell you to burn yourself!! You should go find wood for me to make a fire!!!"
From within the area of lingering water vapor, the girl's somewhat collapsed cry came.
"Do you know how much money it costs me every time to fix this brainless guy like you!? I'm so poor... you're still burning yourself!!!"
—When the shadow puppet controlled by Bai Zhi arrived here riding a ragdoll cat, he saw such a scene.
"...Summoning player?"
Looking through the thick rain curtain, looking at the two tall dolls, one red and one blue, on the girl's side, Bai Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Players are also divided into many schools based on the attributes they focus on, the skills they need to learn, and the weapons they use.
For example, take Bai Zhi himself as an example. Bai Zhi thinks that he is... Wait, what kind of school does he belong to
Obviously I had full intelligence at the beginning, so logically I should have followed the mage stream, such as letting go of magic or manipulating elements... As for the gun, it should also be a staff, right
