Chapter 29: The first arrival in the land of dusk (6)

Views:

The twilight is deep, and the Qi Le people are walking in the streets and alleys of Sunset Island. It is said that except for a small number of NPCs, most of them are players, which is exactly the opposite of other parts of Duskland. The main road was filled with the tempting aroma of food, and Qi Leren even smelled the smell of braised pork, which caused his saliva secretion to increase significantly.

In the end, in the spirit of saving, he controlled himself and only bought a cheap and large bowl of fried rice on the roadside, and filled his stomach with a bowl of soup. When checking out, he signed his name on his bill, and then received a system prompt: [You have spent 20 minutes of survival time, and the remaining survival time: 9 days, 4 hours and 07 minutes. If you have any objection to the transaction, please go to the transaction. complained.]

Qi Leren's heart thumped again, the imminent problem of survival really made it difficult to sleep and eat.

After leaving the main road, Qi Leren slowly walked towards Dr. Lu's house. He planned to ask Dr. Lu's future plans. If possible, he still hoped to be able to download the dungeon with this lucky and high-level companion who can be a nurse. Yes, I feel like I have an extra life.

The alleys away from the main road are intricate and complicated. Qi Le people dare not take unfamiliar roads, so they follow the path that Su He took them to walk through yesterday. Fortunately, he is not a road idiot. On the contrary, his memory in this area is not bad. , you will never forget it after walking through it once.

The big clock tower in the middle of Sunset Island rang the bell again, and the deep and distant bell swayed in the twilight, making this twilight hometown of day and night stained with a little sadness. Every minute and every second, people are dying.

Qi Leren sighed silently and stopped to look at the clock tower. At this moment, there are probably many people who are as worried about their survival as he is. In this perilous and precarious world, they don't even have a way to leave, nor do they have the courage to use death to verify whether they will return to reality because of this, and can only struggle to survive here.

In the twilight, Qi Leren saw a big black bird flying from a distance and stopped beside him.

With some dim light, Qi Leren felt that the bird was not like a seagull, but an eagle.

Are there eagles here too? Qi Leren stared at the bird earnestly while suspicious.

The bird stood still on the fence, raised its neck suddenly, and said in a deep voice, "Human, sign a contract with me and become the chosen one!"

"…!!!"

Qi Leren's face changed greatly, and he looked at the bird in surprise. This bird can talk! Is this really a bird? ! Or was he on a hidden mission

"What contract?" Qi Leren tried his best to appear calm and calm, at least he didn't look like a hard-nosed intellectual who was fooled by a lie.

Big Bird's sharp eyes looked at him deeply, one person, one bird and four eyes facing each other, just when Qi Le people thought that this bird was about to look at him until the end of the world, it suddenly let out a weird laugh: "Hehe, lied to you."

At this moment, a killing intent emerged in Qi Leren's heart - he was going to roast this silly bird!

Qi Leren took out the bag of [flattering rations], grabbed a handful and threw it on the ground. The plain-looking rations exuded a tempting fragrance, even if they were full of Qi Leren There is an urge to lie on the ground and lick.

The strange bird flew down as soon as it flapped its wings, and after a few bites, it ate all the rations that had been thrown on the ground, and then quackly asked the Qi Le people for it.

What the hell is going on with this bird? Is it a quest NPC? Qi Leren was torn about whether to grab another handful for him, but there were only thirty rations in total, and he had already used one, so he was a little hesitant.

At this moment, there was a loud whistle in the distance, the strange bird hesitated for a moment, flapped its wings again and flew up, looking back at him frequently, while flying in the direction from which the whistle came.

Could it be that the owner of this bird is the key NPC? Qi Leren stuffed the ration back into the package and quickly chased after him. The intricate trail made his tracking very difficult, and he soon lost the bird.

When walking around an alley, Qi Leren stopped abruptly: deep in the alley not far away, in the place illuminated by the setting sun, there were corpses lying all over the floor. The strong smell of blood rushed to his face, making him take a few steps back. There was undoubtedly a murder scene in front of him. There were seven or eight corpses scattered all over the place, but no one was alive.

Qi Leren's heart was at war again. He suspected that the murderer would go and return. He had better pretend that he didn't see anything and turn around and leave immediately. But does escaping help? Another voice mocked him: Do you think this is still the peaceful real world? If you can survive without incident, why would anyone take the risk to hijack a plane

It's like seeking wealth at risk! Qi Leren made up his mind, waited for a while at the alley, and made sure that no one came back here, so he cut his sleeves and covered his face to prevent people from seeing his true colors, and went to check carefully.

The seven corpses were clearly divided into two groups. One group consisted of five people, all male, wearing inconspicuous clothing, but all with weapons, and the fatal wounds on their bodies were all neat and tidy. They were two young women who looked very similar and should be a pair of sisters. They looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. Neither of them had weapons, and the wounds on their bodies were very messy. kill.

According to his judgment, he suspected that after the five men succeeded in chasing the sisters, they were killed by another unknown person—he saw a few vague footprints left on the ground, spreading deep into the alley, gradually changing Light lost track.

These men didn't bring anything other than weapons and food. They looked like NPCs. Qi Le person beat his numb feet, and then leaned over to check on the unfortunate pair of sisters.

One of the girls had a totem that looked like some kind of painted on the back of her hand. Qi Leren's fingers touched it inadvertently, and then an accident happened - the painted totem appeared on his on hand! And the system prompt appeared instantly!

[Player Qi Leren triggers a special mission: Sacrifice a witch. The mission will officially start in Maka Village in 7 days. Please arrive at Maka Village before the mission starts. After arriving at the mission location, the survival time will be suspended until the mission ends. Failure to arrive within the time limit will be regarded as mission failure, and 100 days of survival will be deducted.]

Really have a mission? Qi Leren's right hand covered the painted totem on his left hand, and his expression became solemn. He doesn't have any extra time to waste now, and he still doesn't know where the hell that Maka Village is!

Qi Leren took the time to search for the relics of the two murdered women. Unfortunately, there was no clue to the mission on the two of them! This is not normal! The two of them didn't even bring their luggage with food and water, it was as if... they had already been searched!

Qi Leren frowned, glanced at the other deceased who had no totem on his hand, and suddenly thought: What if the murderers who killed those men received the same task as him? So the man took everything from the two of them, along with the mission clues.

It makes sense to think about it like this, but in this way, the situation he will face is even more dangerous. This quest is definitely not a single-player quest, but it is not a group quest, because he didn't get any prompts to form a team, but this quest is likely to involve other players, he doesn't think they will be teammates by then, maybe This is an adversarial task.

The more he thought about it, the more headache Qi Leren got, so he simply stood up, rubbed the bloody footprints he left on the ground, and then left from the alley.

Let's go to Su He and ask him for his opinion, at least to figure out how to get to the mission location.

Not long after he left, another player discovered the murder scene, and he quickly reported it to the court. If Qi Leren was still here, he could probably recognize the one who led the team here. Al of the Fate.

"The seven people killed are all NPCs, but there are obvious differences in the wounds. The wounds on the male deceased are all stab wounds, and they are decisive and decisive, almost killing them with one blow, but from the direction of the wounds, the perpetrators should use double There was no murder weapon at the scene. The wounds on the woman’s body were messy. Judging from the wounds, it should be the weapon carried by several male deceased. Two people came to the scene of the crime, one left at the end of the alley, leaving complete footprints, the other from Leave at the alley and destroy the footprints." The fellow Tribunal executive reported to Al.

Al's footsteps stopped in front of Qi Leren's footprints. The footprints he left had been messed up by Qi Leren before he left. It was difficult to judge his height, weight and walking posture. Al only glanced at it.

"Do you want to pursue it?" the fellow executive asked.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to take care of the NPC's mess. There are enough things in the courthouse." Al said lazily, looking like he was slack at work, but what he said surprised his colleagues, "Go ask directly. Just ask the 'murderer'."

"Do you know who the murderer is? The footprint and the wound haven't been compared yet!" Another executive was taken aback.

Al sneered, and pointed to the feathers stuck in a pool of blood that was not easy to find in the corner: "Birds, two knives, and good skills, I don't believe there is a second such person on Sunset Island."
