Your health drops to 82%… 75%… 64%…

Your stamina drops to 86%… 72%… 61%…

The monster turned its body sideways and bounced up like a cannonball, blowing up the ground where it was lying and causing a splash of sand and gravel. Wen Zheliu and He Qin used crossed steel knives as a barrier to block it. Their chests and abdomen were tense, and their whole bodies Applying force, the military boots plowed several meters of deep scratches on the ground, and the soil surged on both sides, making it difficult to block it from a group of players!

The powerful body of this inhuman creature was so close, every trace of its sticky and ferocious muscle texture was clearly visible, and the rich and stench of rotten smell also hit his face. Wen Zheliu's eyes turned black, and the strong smell of blood rolled in his throat. At this moment, his health and stamina were dropping rapidly, and the back of the knife kept making trembling and shattering sounds. The monster roared angrily, its bloody tongue like a steel whip, and instantly shattered the harpoon that Muto threw for reinforcements into several pieces.

"Withdraw the knife!" He Qin roared. The tiger's mouth that clamped the handle of the knife had cracked, and his palm was stained with blood.

There was a frightening sound of wind in my ears, and I heard that Zheliu couldn't close the knife in time, and was hit by the long tongue of the second whip to the back, causing blood to spurt out, and he crashed into a tree trunk on one side in embarrassment. At this time, the players in the rear had also been evacuated. He Qin quickly pulled away, changing the edge of the knife just before the smash, and cut the tendons on the monster's huge arm, allowing it to roar and rush to the open space in front.

"Run, run quickly!" Wen Zheliu suppressed his pain and shouted. The blow just now was too cruel, and it was too hard for him to resist now. Now he only had 7% of his health left, and his physical strength was at the bottom. He was closely watching the monster's every move, his thoughts were racing, and he was thinking about a problem quickly.

The system—or rather the plot—arranges such a powerful boss to attack them before the main mission begins. What is the purpose? At present, the player level is low and the equipment is poor. How can they defeat this powerful monster? Are they going to be destroyed here

Everything they did now was in vain. The eleven players rushed towards the end of the path in the opposite direction of He Qin. The monster howled again and turned around, rushing towards the couple who was holding their heads and running away. He Qin's eyes were as cold as stars, and there were already faint cracks in the long knife. Sooner than later, he jumped up, stepped on the tree, and spun around. The sword's intention was as cold as lightning, and the target was facing the monster's back. neck!

"Brother!" Wen Zheliu was startled and managed to get up from the ground. The blood bar flashed and glowed dangerously red, "Be careful!"

The charging monster had no time to stop, and was startled by the huge murderous intention erupted by He Qin in an instant, and screamed in fright. At that moment, the knotted muscles all over its body tensed up, like a solid wall. , actually broke the blade that He Qin had chopped off!

He Qin's brows twitched, and he made a quick decision, threw the knife away, and tried to escape. However, the monster that had been angered by him over and over again would not let him go like this. The deformed and twisted huge claws grabbed him in the chest and slammed him to the ground, causing a burst of flying smoke and dust.

He Qin groaned, and warm blood suddenly gushes out from between his lips and teeth uncontrollably. Wen Zheliu's eyes turned red. At this moment, his anger defeated the fear of facing death, and he roared angrily: "You are looking for damn death! Here you go!" I let him go!"

The bloody tongue ejected by the monster and Wen Zheliu's furious blade flashed almost at the same time. The front half of the steel knife was suddenly split into two pieces by the tongue, and flew past his cheek. Wen Zheliu did not avoid it and continued to hold it. The half-remnant blade of the knife was stabbed hard and stuck directly into the forearm where it was restraining He Qin. Black blood spurted out, and the monster suddenly loosened its claws and roared in pain!

In an instant, Wen Zheliu seemed to feel something strange in his palm. In addition to the sound of broken muscles, he seemed to have cut something metallic.

However, at the same time that the monster was restrained by them, another monster's howl like laughter and Lin Fangfei's crazy scream came from the distance again!

Wen Zheliu suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. However, right now, he and He Qin were like the broken knives in their hands, unable to recover.

… Will they die here

Mu Tuo's angry roar, Zhou Qing's frightened scream, and everyone's crying and shouting seemed to have gone away from him. Only the moans of the dying women and the pitiful cries for mercy of the men were gradually clear and clear. Teeth aching and legs shaking. After forcing the monster to loosen its claws, the last bit of his physical strength was exhausted. Wen Zheliu's eyeballs were bloodshot, and his body weighed more than a thousand kilograms. He could no longer support it and fell heavily beside He Qin.

He Qin tried his best to hook his wrist. Wen Zheliu could hear the sound of breathing blocked by blood in his throat, and felt the irregular rise and fall of his chest, but he couldn't even lift a finger or move. In the confused darkness, another heavy body weighed on him.

- It was He Qin. He used his last strength to turn over and block Wen Zheliu.

However, at this critical moment, the monster has not yet taken action.

The howling of its companions in the distance was like a call. Even though it really wanted to kill these two brave humans with extraordinary strength, it still lingered for a few steps unwillingly, then roared sinisterly, and slapped all the sticky saliva in its mouth. Landing on He Qin's back, he turned around and threw himself into the dense forest.

The movement in the forest gradually faded away, and there was silence in Wen Zheliu's ears. Apart from the hidden sound of corroding clothes, there was the sound of He Qin's low breathing and his cough choked by blood stasis.

"...Brother." He half-closed his eyes and called softly.

"What's wrong, baby?" He Qin's voice was filled with laughter. After gradually getting away from the dangerous situation of the battle, he restrained the cold edge of Guishen Mojin and returned to the carefree He Qin that Wen Zheliu was familiar with.

"You..." Wen Zheliu couldn't bear it anymore, "Get up quickly... You are so heavy, you are going to crush me to death..."

He Qin was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly. Halfway through his laughter, he choked on the blood in his throat, so he leaned over Wen Zheliu and trembled violently and coughed.

Mu Tuo, Zhou Qing, Du Zijun and others who rushed behind him paused hesitantly. Zhou Yao pushed the bloody lens and asked tentatively: "Well, I'm sorry, are we... disturbing?"

Wen Zheliu: "..."

Wen Zheliu became angry and used the 1% of his newly recovered physical strength to push He Qin: "Get up quickly! I'm going to be angry!"

He Qin rolled off him with a smile, and suddenly caught something with his peripheral vision. He stood up slowly and calmly, picked up the broken knife on the ground and threw it into the grass. He turned around and lifted Wen Zheliu's arm. Get up and put it around your shoulders.

"Can you still go? If you can't, I will carry you on my back." He spoke in a serious tone and whispered with his thin lips next to Wen Zheliu's ear.

Hearing the heat on Zheliu's face, He Qin's magnetic voice was gentle and low, which made even the tips of his ears blush. Just as he was about to speak, he felt a weight in his pocket, but He Qin put one in it. what.

He felt a chill in his heart, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "No, just walk slower."

At present, the two of them can be said to be the major contributors to repelling the monster. The other players naturally have no objection to Wen Zheliu's request. Mu Tuo walked next to He Qin and said in a tone that could not hide his surprise: "Little brother Wen Di , I thought you were just a novice player, but I didn’t expect you and your brother to be such powerful figures!"

He Qin smiled slightly: "It's true that we are all newcomers. It's just that due to family reasons, we just randomly learned how to use cold weapons."

Wen Zheliu simply couldn't complain. The third heir to n-star company learned all "random methods", so what did the others learn

"It's just..." He suddenly thought of something and said, "We don't know why the monster left suddenly."

Mu Tuo was silent for a moment, and Du Zijun glanced at them. There was no longer the alertness in his eyes, but a solemn look of concern. Her cigarette had either been finished, or it had been knocked out in the battle. In short, At this time, she was holding a straw in her mouth and twirling it between her lips skillfully, which made the corners of Wen Zheliu's mouth twitch.

"I may have guessed a little bit about the reason," she said calmly. The straw swayed as she spoke, but would not fall down. "You will know when we get to the place."

Wen Zheliu and He Qin both smelled an increasingly strong smell of blood, and the players walking in front slowly stopped. Xiong Lin turned to look at them, his eyes unbearable and said: "You guys... take a look. ."

Wen Zheliu's pupils instantly shrank, He Qin stretched out his palm and gently covered his nose, neutralizing the disgusting smell that hit his face.

He had thought before that although he didn't know why Lu Hai and Lin Fangfei became targets, when the second monster suddenly appeared and blocked the remaining players, they might already be facing a dead end, but he couldn't help it. It was unimaginable that they would die...so miserably.

There was only half a person left on the ground in front of him. Lu Hai's body was leaning on the ground in a twisted posture, as if he had been violently thrown to death by a huge force, but his eye sockets were completely empty, and his broken eyeballs were frozen. Hanging on the pale face, they were like tears made of two masses of flesh and blood. His crimson eye sockets were dark and he was staring ahead unconsciously. Most of the skull on the top of his head had been cut off, like a half-remaining water ladle. It was empty, only red, not white.

"Everyone was in a hurry to escape at that time, but we didn't expect that another monster would suddenly jump out..." The player named Ke Wenyan turned his eyes to the side, the expression on his face was distorted by excessive fear. His previous full-time occupation was Musician, "His girlfriend was caught first, and he rushed to rescue her, and then..."

He took a deep breath and couldn't say any more.

"Then he was shot to pieces by the monster, and his brains were scraped off with his tongue." Du Zijun spat out the straw, and his tone was so calm that he said, "The monster's target should only be them. As for his girlfriend, over there. "

She raised her chin and directed Wen Zheliu and He Qin to look at the half-body body on the other side. It could be seen that Lin Fangfei was torn in half by some huge force and died. There was blood and blood all over the floor. Broken internal organs. The monster only took away her upper body, while the lower half generously stayed here to accompany her boyfriend.

Wen Zheliu just took a cursory glance, and his mental value dropped by 8%. He couldn't stand it anymore, and like the others, he couldn't bear to turn his head to the side.

In the silence, He Qin suddenly said: "It's coming."

coming soon? What's coming

Before everyone could react, they suddenly heard the system prompt tone again!

Hearing this unreal female voice again after a thrilling fierce battle, everyone felt as if they were in another world.

Congratulations, player, you have reached the conditions to enable game mode!

Currently there are only two modes:

1 Escape mode: If all players complete the first main mission without any damage, the escape mode will be activated. In this mode, for every player lost, the total number of rewards will be reduced by a certain percentage, and the game difficulty will be increased by a certain percentage.

Note: There is no upper limit to the increase rate of game difficulty.

2. Victory mode: If all players complete the first round of main tasks and some players are eliminated, the victory mode will be activated. In this mode, for every player lost, the total number of rewards will be increased by a certain percentage, and the game difficulty will be reduced by a certain percentage.

Note: The reduction ratio of game difficulty shall not exceed 60% of the original difficulty setting.

Players are asked to consciously check the situation.

I wish you a pleasant journey.

Everyone couldn't hide their shock as they digested this hint. After a while, Muto said: "...So, we have now started the second winning mode?"

Wen Zheliu frowned, feeling that something was wrong. He whispered to He Qin, "This is a bit like how we play in the survival world."

"Well," He Qin nodded, "It's a bit similar, but that one is an active choice, and this one is a passive trigger."

"Then have they..." Zhou Qing's voice trembled slightly, "have turned into a vegetative state in the real world and will never wake up for the rest of their lives?"

Zhou Yao sighed, put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Let's go to the cabin to find a place to rest. We'll talk about other things after completing the first main mission."

Several players pushed the bodies of Lu Hai and Lin Fangfei into the dense forest to prevent the smell of blood and remains from attracting any more troublesome things. Muto handed a wooden stick and a crowbar to the two of them and said, "Your knives are gone. If you don't mind, use this first."

Although these are props left behind by the deceased, what is there to dislike now? Wen Zheliu took them over and thanked Mu Tuo. Zhou Qing curled his lips and said: "Lin Fangfei still thought this was not good, so she threw them away and refused to take them. Now that they are better, they are even dead."

Wen Zheliu's heart moved and he had a vague guess. He smiled and said, "Then everyone, hold on to your weapons tighter and don't let them fall away again."

He glanced at the crowbar in his hand again and couldn't help but sigh: "This is the Holy Sword of Physics. Once used, it can pierce one of Darkseid's eyes. Why don't you know how to cherish it..."

He Qin glanced at him: "Thank you for remembering this ancient comic plot."

"...Don't you remember it too? Hey! Who do you have to say anything about me?"

The thick fog gradually dissipated, and a group of eleven people, injured and lame, finally arrived at the "Marian Cottage" mentioned on the station sign.

To the player's surprise, the "hut" in front of them was not small at all, and even looked a bit like a mansion in the forest.

This three-story building occupies a large area. The typical European style makes it full of elegant romance. However, the dark stained windows, sharp-shaped ribbed vaults, and mottled roofs eroded by wind and rain. The wall paint gives this romance a layer of subtle depressiveness. The sky is gloomy, the forests are deep, and the shadow of death still lingers in everyone's hearts. The crows in the mountains scream, sending continuous echoes farther into the distance...

Zhou Qing shook his shoulders and took a step back from Zhou Yao in fear.

He Qin leaned against Wen Zheliu's ear and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Do you like it?"

"What?" Wen Zheliu was confused.

He Qin smiled and said: "What do you think of this house? It's a folk victorian style building, a masterpiece born in the Victorian era. A skilled carpenter can use drawings to create the most complicated and gorgeous decorations on it, but the game artist wants to avoid Due to the limitations of this small-mindedness, the unique Gothic spire stained windows were mixed into it, changing the structure of the porch. Doesn’t it look wonderful?”

His tone was like a child showing off candy. When he said this, how could the scene in front of him still have a mysterious and scary atmosphere? Wen Zheliu couldn't laugh or cry, but he still answered honestly: "It's quite interesting. Brother, you know so clearly, have you seen the subsequent plot?"

"No." He Qin shook his head, "Unfortunately, I can only learn such insignificant scraps. As of now, my uncle is the only one who has the ability to spoil the story, and others can't even think about it."

The two people here were whispering intimately, and everyone there looked at each other and unanimously recommended Muto to negotiate. Muto didn't refuse. He walked up the steps and knocked politely on the door.

After a while, the door opened a small crack, and a thin, pale blonde woman held a candlestick and looked at them warily through the crack in the door.

In this regard, the system must have been debugged, otherwise Muto would have to communicate with this woman in English. He said respectfully: "Are you Miss Marianne? That's right. We are travelers here for fun, and we accidentally got lost. I happened to see your home address on the stop sign and said that I could stay overnight, so I took the liberty of Excuse me, it would be very grateful if you could take us in temporarily.”
