The best news so far is that Shen Ti is still there and they met.
"Get out of here first." Shen Ti led An Wujiu through the chaotic crowd.
On the way, An Wujiu grabbed his wrist and checked Shen Ti's remaining time.
"fine… "
Shen Ti heard him talking to himself, "What's okay?"
"nothing."
The crowd was crowded, An Wujiu's hand was tightly held by Shen Ti, they were in a state of running and fleeing at the moment, it was not suitable to hold hands, so he said to Shen Ti, "You can let go".
But Shen Ti insisted, "You just disappeared once."
These words made An Wujiu's turbulent heart stop slightly.
Can't disappear a second time.
So far, he still doesn't have the sense of reality of having entered the game. The altar pierces through the barrier and appears directly in reality. So many people died in front of An Wujiu's eyes. The tragic death made him feel extremely dazed.
It wasn't until Shen Ti was found that the heart that was floating in danger was finally settled.
An Wujiu looked up to check the sanity value above Shen Ti's head, and found that the parameter bar had hardly changed, and it was still full.
Is it because the monsters here are essentially his kind
While running, he looked at his sanity in a panic. It had decreased, but not much, about 5%.
The altar should not only be damaged by these pollutants to damage their mental power, maybe there is something more terrifying that will reduce the sanity value of all of them.
They ran across a block, avoiding a low building that was collapsing, An Wujiu asked Shen Ti what happened before the game started, "I came out of Lilith's building, and you and Gabriel disappeared. Did you refresh from somewhere else?"
"Yes, I was going to get out of the elevator, but as soon as I got out, I came to the outside of a clinic. It's like time travel. It's near here." Shen Ti looked at him, "I thought Gabriel was with you."
"Not here." An Wujiu frowned, worried about Gabriel's current situation, as well as other companions and Lilith, "We'd better find a better means of transportation."
"Look for weapons first." Shen Ti said.
They came to a new street, which was not so prosperous, with relatively few people, and almost no pollutants could be seen on the street.
"I just bought the gun earlier." Shen Ti led An Wujiu over.
Suddenly, the silent large screens on the street flickered twice at the same time. After a while of blank screens, the rabbit appeared again.
"Good evening, my friends, how do you feel now? Are you still alive?" Rabbit's expression and tone were exaggerated, "Is this the first time you feel the preciousness of life?"
"But..." Rabbit put his hands on his hips, "I feel that you haven't grasped the essence of this game yet."
He raised a hand and pointed to his wrist, "I saw the time on your wrists, right? It's passing by without stopping, tick tock... I don't know what terrible things will happen after it resets to zero? "
"Now, I want to announce a new rule to you." The rabbit smiled and raised his arms high, "
Each of you has the opportunity to increase the time you have! There are two methods: 1. Kill the polluters in front of you. Each polluter will have corresponding time points marked on his body. As long as you kill them, you can get the corresponding time. But be careful, time Polluters with more points are more dangerous, be careful that when you kill them, you will become pollutants yourself! "
After the rabbit finished speaking, he giggled again, "I thought about it, this method of obtaining time is indeed a bit difficult, so, I show mercy and provide you with a new method, which is to kill people!"
An Wujiu frowned.
kill…
"Each of you has time, as long as you kill anyone, you can directly inherit his time, not to mention looking directly at humans will not lower your sanity, because you are the same kind."
The rabbit laughed and said, "Isn't this method great? Hahahahaha!"
Shen Ti's expression was a little impatient, "Now it's troublesome."
"That's right, there are more opponents." An Wujiu actually expected that if he didn't provoke the relationship between the players, it might not be a altar.
"Fortunately, I have long thought of buying weapons."
Shen Ti took him to the place where he bought the gun before. It was a vending machine at a crossroads. It was no different from other vending machines. It was much bigger and taller, and the goods inside were different. This place specializes in selling guns and equipment. .
"Now even the player system of the altar cannot be opened, and it is very troublesome to exchange things." Standing in front of the vending machine, Shen Ti clicked to select the guns to buy, "We may have to buy some medicine and food later."
An Wujiu looked around vigilantly, but did not find any pollutants. He saw a neon sign not far away, "There seems to be a supermarket in front."
"Okay." Shen Ti set up all the parameters, and paid a large amount of money with points.
Turning around, An Wujiu saw the consumption amount and couldn't help asking, "How much did you buy?"
"Not many, they are all useful."
The vending machine started to vibrate slightly, and there were a few landing sounds in the drawer-shaped delivery box on the bottom floor. When the sound died down, the delivery box automatically popped up. Shen Ti bent down, took out an assault rifle from inside, and He took out a light sniper rifle in one hand.
"You use this." Shen Ti checked the ammunition, handed the assault rifle to An Wujiu, and hung the sniper rifle on his back.
An Wujiu took the gun, always feeling weird in his heart.
Compared to before, it's a little too quiet here.
But no matter how he observed, there was indeed no movement around, so he could only look away and look at the delivery compartment.
"And this knife, called Zhuyeqing."
Shen Ti took out the last weapon inside, it was a blue-green lancet, long and narrow, slightly curved, with the end slightly tucked in, the hilt had a beautiful red luster, and the blade glowed faintly under the moonlight. The green light seems to be faintly covered with fine scales, extending upwards, with a red dot embedded in the tip.
Like the eyes of a snake.
"Here's this one for you, I fell in love with it immediately." He handed over the knife, "Your knife is the best, and a beauty deserves a good knife."
Bamboo leaf green.
It's really the name of a poisonous snake.
"What beauty? A femme fatale?"
An Wujiu took the knife and suddenly felt something grabbing his ankle.
When I lowered my head, it turned out to be a hand!
That hand is a human hand, but the texture of the skin is very strange. It is a prosthetic body, but this prosthetic body is covered by liquid metal, which is melted from the vending machine. It is impossible to tell whether the "person" was swallowed by the vending machine, or the vending machine was fused with people.
The liquid metal is still spreading, and will soon spread to the wrist of the prosthetic body. An Wujiu drew his knife and cut off the hand without mercy, and retreated together with Shen Ti.
It turns out that the pollutants on this street are this vending machine!
The pollutant whose hand had been cut off was furious, let out a huge roar, and burned up in an instant, and huge burning objects rose from the ground and rushed towards them.
A string of numbers was displayed above his head, which is the time that can be obtained by defeating him, but now the numbers are shaking in the flames, An Wujiu can't see clearly at all.
"Go!"
Shen Ti retreated while shooting, but perhaps because the pollutants fused with the metal vending machine, it became extremely hard, and it became extremely difficult to suppress firepower.
no.
The monster covered in flames suddenly rushed towards them.
At this moment, there was a bang—
A huge truck rushed out from the other end of the intersection, and slammed into the giant monster in front of it at an extremely fast speed.
The flaming pollutants were sent flying more than ten meters by the huge impact force, and fell heavily to the ground.
The door of the truck opened, and Wu You was sitting in the driver's seat.
"Brother Wujiu, come up quickly!"
An Wujiu was a little surprised, he and Shen Ti got into the car before the monster pounced again.
"Finally found you." Nan Shan was sitting in the co-pilot, he saw the weapons on the two of them, "Do you have guns?"
"I just got it." Shen Ti breathed a sigh of relief, "This monster has a bit of conscience and didn't run away before we got the goods." He just finished speaking, and under the effect of inertia, his whole body slammed to the right.
It was Wu You who turned around, "I don't care about this pollutant?"
"Don't worry about it, let's go first." An Wujiu looked out the car window and felt that Wu You was not driving very steadily, so he turned to look at him again.
Only then did An Wujiu realize that Wu You's sanity had been reduced by a quarter!
"Wait!" He looked back, but the pollutant just now didn't catch up.
"What's wrong?"
"Change quickly." An Wujiu said to Wu You, "I'll drive."
"Let me do it," Nan Shan offered, "I'm easier to change, everyone don't get out of the car."
The stability of Nanshan's sanity is much higher than Wu You's. After the monster just now, his sanity has only decreased a little, which is probably related to his physique and Taoist profession.
An Wujiu made a comparison. If a person's mental stability is judged by the consumption rate of sanity points, Wu You is relatively poor at present. He is about the same as Nanshan, and he is slightly higher.
Shen Ti is the most stable, after so many pollutants, his sanity value has hardly decreased at all.
Nanshan explained to An Wujiu and Shen Ti the information they currently have. At the moment when the power was cut off in the whole city, he who was originally in Yang Erci's apartment suddenly appeared downstairs, while Wu You was trapped in the elevator. After they bumped into each other in the crowd, they saw Yang Erci and Zhong Yirou, but they were separated in the fleeing crowd because of the appearance of a 60-story-high pollutant.
"I only saw that they fled to the southwest. It's not clear where they are now."
An Wujiu nodded, "Then let's drive in that direction first, and see if we can find them along the way."
Shen Ti stared out the window, "If they want to escape, they must escape to a safer place with fewer people and not too high a building."
After leaving the environment just now, Wu You's sanity value rose a little, and he suddenly thought, "So there is indeed a safer place in that direction."
"What?" Nan Shan asked.
"You drive, and I'll guide you." Wu You told them, "It's a whole factory with one-story houses and no tall buildings, and there are few people there, because it has been abandoned for a long time. Speaking of which, it is not far from Sister Rou's home. If they really ran to the southwest, they probably went there."
With a little clue, everyone has a certain degree of confidence in surviving.
An Wujiu and Shen Ti were in charge of scouting the road conditions to prevent the unexpected situation just now from happening again.
Although there are some minor turmoil at present, at least they have gathered four people. This is great news. Even if more dangerous things happen, it is better than fighting alone now.
Just as he was thinking, a force attracted him to raise his head and look at the night sky. There is not a single star in the night, and there are two moons in the sky. The strange thing is that An Wujiu took a closer look and found that there are countless cracks in the sky.
He patted Shen Ti's hand, "Look at the sky."
"You mean two moons? I know." Shen Ti said so, but still looked up.
"no."
Shen Ti also paused, he understood what An Wujiu meant.
"This... is the same as the last round."
An Wujiu also thought of the sacrifice scene in the last round of the game, "In the copy of the Blood Moon Sacrifice, Zhou Yijue got a fire seed from Xue Nu, and she said at the time that she only needed to use this fire seed to burn the three divine pillars If it is lit, there will be a miracle of the resurrection of the dead, but at least in the last round of the game, no one was resurrected, and those pillars flew into the sky, smashing the sky into pieces."
Nan Shan also felt wrong, "So the cracks that appeared in the last round still exist in this round."
"And it's deeper." Shen Ti looked at the crack in the sky.
Wu You felt a headache, and he put his hand on his temple, "I can no longer tell whether this is reality or the game. It feels like the altar has invaded reality from the game, but how is this possible?"
The more impossible it is, the more likely it will happen.
On the way to the abandoned factory, they encountered three pollutants, one was the slime monster that An Wujiu encountered alone, and the other was the mutated pollutant that fused with other substances just now. The two fought with them in the car before they escaped and drove forward smoothly.
An Wujiu was a little worried about the pollution of this fusion mutation, and wondered if there would be further mutations in the future.
"It's a good thing you have weapons, otherwise we won't be able to get there." Nan Shan drove the car and saw in the rearview mirror that An Wujiu's arm was stained with the corrosive slime of the polluted body, "Are you all right? If there is water, wash the wound first!"
Wu You, the co-pilot, turned around and handed them water. An Wujiu saw that the sanity point on his head had decreased a little.
"Wu You, there will be a pollutant in a while, don't look at it."
Wu You nodded, and stretched out his hand calmly, intending to pour water on An Wujiu's arm.
The car shook a little, Shen Ti took the water from his hand, "I'll do it."
An Wujiu looked at Shen Ti, his brows were tightly frowned, looking very uncomfortable.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt very much." He comforted Shen Ti.
Shen Ti didn't speak, and poured water on his arm. Watered, the corrosive slime is diluted and greatly reduced in potency.
Even so, a large piece of An Wujiu's arm was corroded, leaving a hollow of flesh and blood, and the silver bones in the arm were faintly visible.
"Don't go out for a while, leave it to me." Shen Ti took off his coat, and tore off a piece of fabric to bandage An Wujiu.
"No, you can't handle it alone."
"Why not? Do you still want to abolish a hand?"
The two were deadlocked, Nan Shan looked in the rearview mirror, "It's all right, it's almost here."
An Wujiu wanted to look out the window, it was dark here, only the place illuminated by the car lights could barely see clearly, there were indeed some factory buildings in front of them, the gates were closed, but they were dilapidated and not very defensive .
"Hurry up, everyone!"
Nanshan didn't say anything, and directly ran into it with people and the car. The speed of the car was so fast that Wu You almost thought he was going to take them to death. Fortunately, Nanshan's driving skills were good, and he barely braked in front of the factory. The distance was very dangerous .
The few people arrived without any danger, Wu You took out three flashlights from the car, he and Nan Shan shared one, and the remaining two were shared between An Wujiu and Shen Ti.
"Do you think they're here?" Nan Shan asked Wu You.
Since the two of them only had one flashlight, they were forced to get very close. Wu You shook his head and said he didn't know, and called Zhong Yirou's name again.
No response yet.
It's very quiet here, so quiet that echoes can be heard, it doesn't look like a dangerous place, but with the lessons learned just now, An Wujiu still dare not relax.
"Go ahead and see what can be used here, so we don't need to split up."
Probably because of abandonment, the lock on the gate here has rusted, and it is not really locked. The four of them entered from the outside, and the space inside was larger than imagined, but it was too dark to see clearly. They walked in again, the flashlights wandered in the darkness, and they could barely see some operating tables, as well as discarded tools and a huge mixing bucket.
It's too quiet here, An Wujiu's intuition is causing trouble, he always feels faintly uneasy, he looks down at his wrist, there are less than 3 minutes left, this is the result of killing the monster and increasing the time.
He asked Wu You and Nanshan, "Do you have more time?"
"I have 34 minutes left." Nanshan said.
Wu You said: "I still have 56 minutes."
An Wujiu nodded, feeling a little relieved. Only he has the least time here. If it is really a countdown, then at least they can get a little longer.
It was too dark here, and they couldn't find anything usable, and they didn't see a single person.
"We may not be able to stay in such a safe place for too long." Wu You thought of the special rules of this game, "If we can't kill the pollutants, time will be wasted—"
Before he could finish his sentence, it suddenly turned into a strange whimper of pain.
The flashlight flickered.
With a bang, the flashlight that was originally in Wu You's hand suddenly fell to the ground.
The warm liquid splashed on An Wujiu's face, it was blood.
Wu You's throat was cut from behind—
This was beyond their expectation, the attack came too fast!
Seeing Wu You's eyes widened in surprise and pain, and the blood spilling from his neck, An Wujiu seemed to have been stabbed severely.
He turned his head abruptly, looking for the attacker in anger.
In the interlaced flashlights, he saw a masked face flashing by.
It was him, he killed Wu You...
There was no time to think about it, and An Wujiu couldn't think too much. At this moment, the flames of vengeance engulfed him completely. He hurried forward, the light reflected on the green long knife, and swung it fiercely with the wind of the knife.
The moment the blade touched the mask.
The numbers on his wrist cleared to zero.
[00:00:00]
Countless weird tentacles suddenly appeared in front of him, and he was surrounded like this, as if trapped in a cocoon. Those tentacles stabbed at him fiercely, like a swift poisonous snake, piercing his arms, legs, chest, throat, and eyeballs with a force of breaking bamboo!
Every part of his body was stabbed and torn into countless pieces of flesh and blood!
it's over…
An Wujiu woke up suddenly, stood still and breathed heavily.
He seemed to fall from one huge vortex into another.
Just now, just now, he was torn apart by countless tentacles, and ended his life in great pain.
But when An Wujiu opened his eyes, he was intact. He looked down at his legs, and he was standing on the ground.
And in front of him was Shen Ti who was holding a knife.
"And this knife, called Zhuyeqing."
"This is for you, I fell in love with it immediately." Shen Ti smiled, and said exactly the same words to him with the same expression as before.
how so…
Wu You was obviously dead just now, in front of him, he almost, almost killed that person.
But now, he returned to twenty minutes ago.
"Your knife is the best."
An Wujiu stared blankly at the blue lancet in his hand.
"A beautiful woman deserves a good knife."
