San Tian Liang Jue
Chapter 27 Ghost Shadow Maze (4)
He and Lonely had been queuing up for the multi-person training mode together since level one. After reaching level five, they entered a team survival mode once, but they both died. However, he made slightly more contributions than Lonely, so when the other players cleared that script, Lonely got a little more experience. Later, they queued up for another team survival, but they still failed to clear it and both died. So now, one was level seven and the other was level six, neither of them had any equipment or skills, and they were basically fighting monsters with their bare hands.
Seeing this, I think many people understand. The reason why Long Aomin was assigned to this team was also specially arranged by the system. There might have been hundreds of players queuing up at the same time, so why was it this group of five? It was because the system judged them as weaker players based on Lonely and Lonely Girl's previous performance.
In order to help them, the system added Long Aomin, a level ten player who was also relatively strong, to the team. At the same time, in order to maintain the overall difficulty, the system found two players with relatively low levels but with strong performances to lower the average level of the team.
Thus, there was a group of five people with a total level of 33, and the average level was 6.6... which was exactly the difficulty of a level six or seven script.
To put it more simply, this was the system creating an opportunity for Lonely and Lonely Girl to hitch a ride with a strong player, hoping they could successfully clear a script and avoid dying too many times and developing a psychological shadow...
"What was that just now?" Long Aomin said. Actually, this was just a slip of the tongue. He didn't expect anyone to be able to give him an answer, but because the situation was so scary, he felt panicked and wanted to ask for other people's opinions.
Unexpectedly, Feng Bujue replied in a calm tone, seriously, "There are three possibilities, I'll explain them to you later."
This time, Wang Tanzhi didn't shout, but his face was pale and his voice trembled. "D-d-do we... d-do we have to g-g-go this far? T-t-turning off the lights in the subway i-i-is fine... b-b-but turning off the lights u-u-under the dark sky and moon... is j-j-just too much! A-a-are you trying to scare me to death!"
"The scary thing is over there," Feng Bujue said expressionlessly, pointing in the direction behind Wang Tanzhi.
Xiao Tan stiffly turned his head, and Long Aomin and the distant Lonely and Lonely Girl also saw what Feng Bujue was pointing at at this moment.
They saw the last monster infant climb onto the roof of a bus and let out a sharp howl. Its appearance had changed. Its skin had turned black, its eyes were emitting green light, and its teeth had become narrow, elongated fangs. Although the size of its body had not changed, the scythe in its hand and its pair of beast legs had grown nearly twice as long. Now, when this monster stood completely upright, its height was close to one meter six, and the attack range of its two scythe-arms was obviously longer than a human's arm span.
Wang Tanzhi swallowed, looked down at the fruit knife in his hand, and then looked at the monster's "arm-scythes"... a sense of inferiority arose spontaneously.
"It feels like it evolved perfectly after eating the strange candy..." Feng Bujue said as he walked down from the bus with a pipe wrench in his hand.
"I'll attract it from the front, and you guys look for an opportunity to attack it from the side." Long Aomin said as he walked forward. He couldn't joke around at this time like Feng Bujue could.
Unfortunately, Long Aomin's tactics failed to be implemented. It was possible that this monster infant could understand the players' conversation, or that its intelligence setting was far higher than they imagined. The monster infant completely ignored Long Aomin. It bent its legs and stomped, leaving two sunken hoof prints on the roof of the bus, and bounced high, drawing a parabola in the air. It actually crossed over the heads of the three people and pounced towards Lonely and Lonely Girl, who were more than ten meters away under the streetlights.
At this moment, Long Aomin really wanted to activate the skill he used just now to rush over to help, but he was really powerless. The skill he used to help Feng Bujue out of trouble, [Lightning Charge], was a special ability given to him by his title [Brave Charger]. The cost of activating it was 30% of his stamina limit, and the cooldown was a full hour.
The various situations regarding the "Title System" will not be discussed for the time being. In short, the only people who have the ability to save Lonely and Lonely Girl now are themselves.
Seeing the monster infant descending from the sky, the scythes in its hands slashed diagonally towards the two of them. The three people standing in the center of the street ran towards them at the same time, but the monster infant was like a falling rock flying from a catapult. With its enhanced exaggerated jumping power, the movement it made in the air was difficult for players to catch up with on foot.
"Run towards us! Lower your heads!" Feng Bujue shouted.
This was undoubtedly instructing Lonely and Lonely Girl to respond, and it was also a very correct response. Whether the two retreated backwards or dodged to both sides, at least one of them would be killed immediately after the monster infant landed. And standing still or trying to block the attack would probably lead to an even faster death.
The two of them could only lower their bodies and rush forward, and during the few seconds that the monster missed its target and turned back, they had to get as close as possible to Feng Bujue and the other two in order to have a chance to survive.
At this moment of life and death, a command that sounded confident was very effective. Those who were helpless and fearful in their hearts would often follow suit without thinking too much. Sure enough, Lonely pulled Lonely Girl and rushed forward with their heads lowered the moment he heard the words.
When the monster infant killed from the air, the two of them happened to slip past under its feet and窜to its back. The scythes slashed into the empty space, and it seemed to be exasperated. It tapped the ground with its hooves and turned around to chase, approaching the fleeing two in just two seconds.
But this monster infant was very unlucky. A strong man running in the opposite direction to the two had arrived at this time, and he flashed in front of the monster infant, blocking its path. A gray metal round shield was like an iron wall, blocking the monster infant's path.
The strengthened scythe arms waved and slashed quickly, with crackling sounds one after another, but this attack only stirred up some sparks on the surface of the shield, without even leaving a scratch. The monster infant seemed to gradually slow down its attack speed and reduce its strength.
[Name: Ultron's Fragment]
[Type: Armor]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Defense: Strong]
[Attribute: Refraction]
[Special Effect: None]
[Equipment Requirements: Melee Specialization E, Level 8]
[Remarks: This is a remnant left after a certain generation of Ultron was destroyed. It was originally only the size of a thumb, but after adding secondary Edman alloy and re-smelting it, it was made into this shield. It seems to be slightly stronger than other mass-produced shields of this type, but multiple experiments have shown that there are no significant data differences to support this theory. ]
The attributes of this shield were very strong, and compared to Feng Bujue's pipe wrench, its role in the early stages of the game was obviously greater. The monster infant's attack would slowly stop, also because it understood that if it continued to cut like this, its scythe-hands would probably be worn flat.
The monster infant gave up trying to break through Long Aomin's defense. It wanted to use its speed advantage to bypass this tough bone to deal with other people, but it had wasted too much time. A man wearing a black steel helmet and holding a fruit knife had quietly circled behind it...
Because his weapon wasn't very good and he was relatively timid, Wang Tanzhi didn't dare to act rashly. He went around a car, sneaked behind the monster infant, and then raised his weapon and stabbed the monster infant's cervical spine with a knife. One didn't know if this choice of attack area, which would cripple you even if it didn't kill you, was something that people who studied medicine would do.
With a strange cry, black pus splattered out, splattering all over Wang Tanzhi's face. But this monster infant was still not dead, and still wanted to struggle.
At this moment, a pipe wrench killed from the side, inhumanely stabbing into the monster infant's left eye socket...
