Welcome to the Nightmare Game

Chapter 40: Sacrifice the witch (9)

Views:

In the giant's camp, the cauldron boiling with green-brown liquid was still bubbling, and Qi Leren took a look forward driven by curiosity, and his eyes were immediately blackened. This is no longer the category of dark cuisine. It is definitely a murder weapon. Giants rely on this for a living? The living conditions are a bit tough...

Qi Leren took a closer look at the surroundings, and the horrific corpse was completely invisible. Only the skeleton and flesh and blood left after being eaten by hungry wolves were scattered all over the ground, and most of the rest was left. It's all in the pot. Qi Leren sighed. He didn't know whether it was an NPC or a player who died here, but it's pointless to tangle about this now...

Standing outside the cave, Qi Leren took a few glances inside. It was dark inside, and there seemed to be light reflected from the water surface. Probably because the cave was very low, there was a lot of stagnant water accumulated in it after the rain.

That feeling of being watched over again.

After equipping the "Rain Clothes" skill, Qi Leren's already keen intuition became more sensitive. He glanced at the system prompt, and the "Current Remaining Sensing Times" on the skill card showed 2/3, and the less I deducted it once when I felt the wolf was approaching, but I haven't deducted it anymore, so there should be no danger of death now

Will it be Lu Youxin? No, it seems a little different from then...

If you walk in now, it will be dark inside, and you may be attacked by surprise. It is better to wait outside for the cooling time of SL Dafa to pass, which is safer.

The determined Qi Leren simply sat down at the entrance of the cave and recovered his strength while eating. After the night fell and the skill cooling was over, he carefully walked into the underground cave.

The cave was even bigger than he had imagined before. Qi Le people lit up the lights bought in Dusk Land, and the underground cave finally became brighter. The deep water at the ankles reflected the light, making this dim cave even more eerie.

I always felt that something dangerous would escape from it, Qi Leren couldn't help thinking.

Facing this unknown and dangerous environment, he was inevitably a little scared and uneasy, but thinking that the goddess was also inside, he felt a lot more at ease... No, has he been reduced to hugging a girl's thigh! And it has been hugged several times! Out of business!

The empty underground cave was boundless. Qi Leren had already passed through the shallow water and stood on dry land, surrounded by cave stalagmites. The light was dim and it was difficult to distinguish the direction. He continued to walk forward, feeling the whole cave. Extends infinitely downwards.

How deep is this cave? Where is the cave tower hidden

The more Qi Leren walked, the more frightened his heart became. In the endless darkness, he was the only one walking with a light on. In the dark corner, those shadowy things stared at him furtively, as if whispering. Planning some malicious conspiracy.

With a crackling sound, Qi Leren lowered his head. It turned out that he stepped on a piece of white bone. Because of the time, the weathered bones were loose and fragile, and it was easily broken with one foot.

Is this an animal skeleton, or...

Qi Leren lifted the lamp and tried to shine further.

With the light of the lamp, he squinted into the deeper darkness, and then suddenly opened his eyes—

Ahead, in the boundless darkness, he vaguely saw the layers of corpses piled up in the underground cave, like a sea of bones, boundless... In the darkness, there were little green ghosts floating in the darkness, like fluorescent jellyfish in the deep sea Generally floating, the weak light not only cannot illuminate the darkness, but it adds a bit of horror to the place.

How many creatures are buried here? This is simply a cemetery full of bones!

Qi Leren couldn't help being horrified.

The cold wind blows from the ground, a rotten smell.

Qi Leren shivered, and there were goose bumps on his arms and thighs. He couldn't help wrapping the coat that didn't belong to him, and subconsciously touched the dagger that Su He gave, but remembered that the slot was not enough. He had put the dagger's item card back in the package just now, and now he can only make do with an ordinary dagger.

The deeper he went, the more bones there were. Some looked like the bones of wild animals, but others were hard to identify. Qi Leren even saw fangs as thick and long as his arms. It was hard for him to imagine what kind of animal teeth these were. , doesn't look like a creature on Earth at all... Also, he is not on Earth now, and there may be such terrifying unknown creatures living in this nightmare world, such as the giant outside the cave.

Although he was mentally prepared, Qi Leren was still shocked when he saw a large skeleton that was suspected to be a giant dragon.

The keel is more than ten meters long. The skull of a dragon alone is bigger than his entire body, not to mention the two jagged dragon wings. He can't even imagine how majestic it looked when he was alive. But at this moment, its white bones were half-covered under the sand, lifelessly buried with countless unknown corpses, just waiting for people to imagine what it once looked like.

What awakened Qi Leren from his fantasy was the peeping gaze. He kept calm, pretended to be attracted by the keel, checked sideways, and then looked at the entrance when he came from the corner of his eyes - sure enough, a touch of white The shadow of the stalactite flashed past, someone followed him all the way, and then quietly hid there.

Qi Leren's heartbeat was so fast, because he knew that there was someone who was unknown to the enemy quietly following him. Maybe she was kind or malicious. He couldn't judge, but he didn't want to bet on himself. luck.

He must not be careless, he must find a way to preempt it.

Qi Leren thought for a moment, calmly pretended not to notice, and continued to move forward.

There were several forks and twists in the front, Qi Leren picked one and walked in, and then turned off the lights when they passed a corner and stuck them on the rock wall, quietly waiting for the follower to follow.

It was dark all around, only a little light from the faintly fluorescent moss on the rock wall, so that people would not think that they had lost their vision.

In the silence there was only the sound of his own lowered breathing, and the dripping, tick-tcking sound of water on the top of the damp cave.

A light footsteps approached here. The approaching person walked slowly and cautiously. The weak light made her a little difficult. Qi Leren heard her stumble over a stone on the ground. She doesn't have any night vision.

In this case... Qi Le's heart moved, and he thought of a more secure way.

He held the dagger in one hand and the light switch in the other. When the footsteps sounded beside him, he suddenly turned on the switch and threw the light to the corner from which she came—

In a sudden and dazzling light, the visitor let out a low cry, and was knocked to the ground by Qi Leren unexpectedly. The cold and sharp dagger pressed against her throat, almost pressing a line of blood on her throat.

At this time, Qi Leren's squinted eyes opened, and then he looked at the girl on the ground in astonishment: "Anna?"

The person following him turned out to be the NPC Anna who shared a carriage with him.

Only then did Anna recover from the brief blindness caused by the strong light, and cried in horror: "Are you going to kill me too... I don't want to die woo woo woo, I just want to go home... Please don't kill me!"

"Why did you follow me secretly?" Qi Leren frowned.

"I... I'm afraid... someone wants to kill me, I'm afraid you want to kill me too, I don't want to die... But I don't know where to go... " Anna cried miserably, looking terrified, her green emerald eyes Wet are tears.

"Where's Ellie?" Qi Leren asked again.

"I don't know... We ran away when we ran away..." Anna shrank, looking at the dagger around her neck in horror.

Qi Leren finally put down his heart, pulled back his dagger and said, "It's not safe inside, you should go outside. The forest is very big, and it's not easy to meet others."

"I see, I'll go right away." Anna got up from the ground tremblingly, and walked out of the cave in fear.

Qi Leren looked at the back of Anna leaving, and suddenly felt a strange sense of disobedience. He always felt that if Anna left alone like this, what would happen.

"Wait, let me take you out, it's very dark here." Qi Leren said, picked up the lights on the ground, followed Anna's footsteps, and decided to watch her leave here.

A grateful smile appeared on Anna's pale face: "Thank you, you are so kind..."

The two walked out of the winding path in the cave side by side and returned to the huge bone cemetery. The surroundings were still silent. In order to resist the pressure of this openness, Qi Leren found a way to chat with Anna: "You are How did you get selected to participate in the sacrifice?"

As soon as Anna heard the sad thing, her tears fell again: "I don't know... One day the totem appeared in my hand, and I was taken and locked up... Later, someone fled, I didn't dare Run away, just... come here."

Ellie did say that six people escaped, and two of them should be the source of the totem on the back of his hand and the goddess.

"A sacrifice is made every three years. Are there so many young women in the nearby villages?" asked Qi Leren.

Anna was stunned for a moment: "There are also some tied from other places... Isn't that what you are?"

From the setting, the six players of them should be bound to participate in the sacrifice.

Qi Leren hummed vaguely, and was about to continue to ask questions, when the system suddenly prompted him to [collect clothes in the rain] 1/3 of the remaining sensing times.

not good!

In a flash of lightning, Qi Leren burst out with astonishing reflexes. He threw off the lights and rolled on the ground regardless of the broken bones on the ground. A sharp wind almost swept across his body, but failed to chop him down. into two pieces.

Qi Leren, who rolled on the skeletal remains and stinging all over his body, struggled to hold up his body. Bright red blood flowed from his smashed forehead and slipped into his eye sockets, casting a faint layer of light on the picture in front of him. crimson.

Anna, who was holding a long knife, sighed regretfully, and said in a calm tone, "Oh, you are much more vigilant than I thought."

The long knife that appeared out of thin air finally let Qi Le people know where Anna's sense of disobedience came from. It turned out that from the beginning, this person was a player pretending to be an NPC!
