How Did It Become a River Crab?

"Do you want to die?"

"...Ah?" The female spider was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "No, I don't want to..."

Regardless of whether there is a concept of death or not, the fear of death is natural for living beings. Everyone will comfort themselves when they are doomed to die, but once there is a slight turning point, most people will seek a chance to live.

"Sign this."

Mo Lan took out a blood-stained scroll from her backpack, spread it out, and placed it in front of the female spider.

"You help me get rid of all the ghosts in this mountain, including your giant baby 'son', in exchange, I will give you freedom..."

Mo Lan paused, then said teasingly, "Well... quite limited 'freedom'."

The blood-stained scroll that Mo Lan took out was the [Betrayer's Contract] he drew out when he returned from the Pokémon world...

(The item information is located in Chapter 2 of this volume)

This prop allows characters who intend to betray their own faction to defect directly to the player, and trigger a corresponding betrayal mission. During the mission, the character will be 100% loyal to the player, and if the mission is completed, the character can also become Mo A long-term support for Lan in the next dungeon.

This is also the biggest reason why Mo Lan gave priority to chasing the [Female Spider]. The female spider has the highest probability of betrayal in the entire spider family. The other three are either so disgusting that Mo Lan doesn't want to take out the scroll, or they are a cunning green tea bitch, or they don't have any at all. brain.

And the mother spider, abused and vulnerable, fears more of the "family" than any other member.

For such a person, the temptation of [The Betrayer's Contract] is too great.

Looking at the contract book that Mo Lan placed in front of her, the female spider was taken aback for a moment. Immediately, the words on the surface of the contract turned into streaks of scarlet gleam, like a river flowing upstream, and penetrated into the female spider's head.

In an instant, the system made her understand everything.

She understood what the scroll in front of her represented, and understood that once she signed it, everything would be changed forever.

But even so, there was still a brilliance in her pupils that hadn't appeared for a long time.

This is a contract that is undoubtedly comparable to a prostitution contract, but as Mo Lan said, it will bring her limited freedom, and even if it is "limited", it is much, much better than everything she has now.

She doesn't have much wisdom, but this choice... even a little girl can make the right choice.

After a brief silence, the female spider carefully stretched out her finger and pressed it on the contract.

In an instant, a stream of blood gushed out from her fingertips, and the blood flowed on the paper as if alive, from her fingertips all the way to the signature of the contract, and condensed into her name.

It was a rather vague character, and no one could see what it wrote, but the female spider could sense that it was indeed her name. When she was born as a human, she was filled with love by her parents. The name I intended to give her, not the so-called [Mother Spider]...

The next moment, Mo Lan got a prompt from the system.

"You used the [Betrayer's Contract] on the non-player character [Mother Spider] in the world of [Demon Slayer: Blade]..."

"You have received the betrayal mission: kill the lord of Natian Spider Mountain, the last member [Tired]. This mission does not conflict with the normal mainline killing mission."

"During the betrayal mission, the female spider will not have a sense of betrayal and resistance to you. If you successfully complete the betrayal mission, [The Betrayer's Contract] will be bound to the female spider, making it your special summoned creature. "

"If you successfully complete the betrayal mission, the [Mother Spider] in the main mission [The Battle of Natian Spider Mountain] will be regarded as [defeated]..."

At the same time as a series of task reminders came, Mo Lan looked up at the female spider: "Did you feel any changes? Is it possible that you could be noticed by Tired?"

"No, nothing has changed..." The female spider said timidly, "If he is tired, he should not be able to sense it."

"Okay." Mo Lan let out a sigh of relief. He was always worried about what would happen if the female spider signed the contract. If he was tired, he would have to switch to plan B and directly behead him.

"What do I need to do now?" The female spider spoke nervously, obviously still in the stage of being nervous and excited at the beginning of being a [-]-year-old.

"It's very simple, first control the members of the ghost killing team normally, but don't break their bones like before, look for opportunities to pretend that the control is weak, let a few ghost killing teams get out of control from time to time, help each other, and reduce their casualties."

Mo Lan couldn't let the female spider let go of all the members of the Ghost Killing Squad at once. This would alert the rest of the spider family's opponents. Now this is a relatively safe strategy.

"Then, use your spider insects to help me locate all the members of the spider family and the densely populated areas of the ghost clan." Mo Lan said, ran to Maple Sugar, and took out a door from Pikachu's backpack, which was so distressed that his ears were spirally entangled. The black cannon was placed in the open space.

"We... want to strike at a fixed point."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The item that Mo Lan took out from her little maple sugar backpack is her [Human Cannon]

【Human Cannon】

Remarks: Feifei Feifei

Mo Lan put the cannon on the ground, glanced at Little Maple Sugar who was so distressed that his ears were deformed, and said helplessly: "Things are for use..."

At this point, Mo Lan has already seen that Little Maple Syrup's title of "Resource Hoarder" is not a coincidence. She herself has a very serious hoarding habit, also known as hamster disease.

Everyone has this problem more or less, and Mo Lan is also unavoidable, but there are only a few people who are as serious as Little Maple Syrup. In the process of rushing before, she even saw a pile of beautiful stones on the side of the road. put it in a backpack...

"I know, but..." Maple Syrup's ears drooped, "I feel uncomfortable seeing things being used up..."

"Hamster disease is something that everyone has, and it is beneficial in many cases, but the premise is that you have to know when to use up what you have accumulated."

Mo Lan took out the rope from Maple Sugar's backpack, and asked the female spider to get some hard spider silk out on the spot, and said to Maple Sugar: "It's like playing a stand-alone game. Without competition and growth pressure, stock up more things. , It doesn't matter if you use it or not, this is a habit that most people will have, and there is no problem.

Switching to other MMORPG games with long growth lines, completely equal player caps, and a slow pace, there is nothing wrong with this habit. After all, everyone can reach the same end point in the end, and storing things will not affect growth.

But this is "Endless Space". There is no balance, unfairness, unlimited upper limit, and limited growth opportunities. In such an environment, excessive hoarding will prevent you from breaking the game at critical moments and using existing Realizing the resources into strength and growth speed is like playing LOL with a stopwatch and not being beaten to death.

In such a game, the purpose of your hoarding resources should be to imitate a person clenching his fist. The more things you hoard, the harder your fist will be. You have to keep accumulating the power of your punch, but there is always a time , you have to hit this punch hard, smash the head of the enemy opposite you into the prostate, take away everything from his corpse, and use it to recast your fist to make it stronger and more fierce, Waiting for the next punch. "

The game Black Hole Little Maple Sugar listened blankly, feeling that he understood something, but it was like listening to a lecture in class, the information was flying around in his mind, and he still couldn't grasp the feeling.

With the help of the female spider, Mo Lan tied the maple syrup rope and the spider silk together, and slowly weaved it into a tough white thread that is over a thousand meters long. After thinking about it, she added: "...to put it simply , It is to use the resources you hoard to snowball, exchange resources for resources, the more you exchange, the stronger you become, the more you hoard, the more you use, the more you use, the more powerful, this is an endless space, and the two are not contradictory."

This is also Mo Lan's game philosophy all along. He will often give up the optimal solution in order to snowball, and use the advantages brought by the rapid improvement of strength to obtain as many resources as possible, and then use these resources to form a virtuous circle.

He doesn't have the conditions of a professional team to seek the optimal solution for everything, so he simply doesn't force it, and focuses on immediate combat power, exchanging immediate combat power beyond the same period for resource advantages, so as to make up for the shortcomings of the optimal solution.

This is actually a more orthodox way of developing uninhabited people in the infinite flow world, but it is indeed very suitable for passer-by players like Mo Lan and Maple Sugar.

"Of course, this is a personal suggestion." After a while, Mo Lan tied the rope to my wife Shanyi's leg, found the thickest tree trunk at the other end, and tied the rope into a circle.

"But anyway, there's one thing I want you to know."

"What, what's the matter?"

"In this dungeon, you are the key." Mo Lan tapped Maple Sugar on the head.

Maple Sugar was stunned, and suddenly realized that this seemed to be the first time that her teammates or companions put her strength and resources in an important position when formulating customs clearance tactics.

In the previous dungeons, she always stayed at the back of the team, waiting blankly for the five companions to solve everything. Sometimes she didn’t play a wave of damage from the beginning to the end of the dungeon. She could indeed pass the level every time. , but every time she cleared the level, she felt that the game was not so fun.

But this time... She felt that she was going to get a little bit of the fun of this game.

"Okay!" After tying my wife Shanyi and the big tree together with a super-long and high-strength rope made of spider silk, Mo Lan rubbed the pliers, "It's ready to start."

"What is this going to do?" Maple Syrup had a vague premonition.

"Didn't I just say, fixed-point strike." Mo Lan looked at the female spider: "Have you located it yet?"

"I found [Father] and [Brother]." The female spider fluttered in the air with her hands holding the spider silk, her eyes wandering: "[Sister] and [Tired] haven't been found yet, I also found a few ghosts with many ghosts." clan's place."

Driven by the contract and the fanaticism of the converts, the female spider subconsciously called other members of the spider family by Mo Lan.

She had long hated this "family" with nothing but fear and despair. These performances were within Mo Lan's predictions.

"Tell me where [Brother] is." Mo Lan winked at the little brother, who immediately lifted my wife Shanyi up from the ground (after the betrayal contract took effect, my wife Shanyi stopped splashing in the water) .

After the mother spider and Mo Lan briefly checked the coordinates, the little brother picked up my wife Shanyi and thrust her into the barrel of the human cannon.

At this moment, Maple Sugar finally understood what Mo Lan was going to do.

He wants to use [Human Cannon] to directly launch my wife Shanyi who is sleeping, and use the high altitude and surprise advantage to forcefully kill the ghosts.

After stuffing my wife Shanyi into the gun barrel and checking the status, Mo Lan stepped aside and began to control the human cannon to aim at the designated position.

"Whoah (Aim and prepare!)"

"Waibi! (Load!)"

"fire!!"

"boom--"

Accompanied by Mo Lan's order, my sleeping wife Shanyi was thrown out by the cannon in the world, into the night sky, and the huge spider silk rope was thrown out at the same time, towards the predetermined place. Steering in the direction of the wind.

A glade somewhere in Spider Mountain.

A dilapidated thatched hut was suspended in mid-air by tough spider threads, looking like a mirage. A white-haired evil spirit with a human-headed spider body and deformed eyes lay leisurely on the roof of the thatched hut, enjoying the moonlight.

He is the "Spider Brother" in the spider family, and also my wife Shanyi's original opponent in the animation. He has the ability to turn people into spiders and drive them. In the original work, Shanyi suffered a lot.

At this moment, he is in his free time after killing people. He only needs to deal with his own ghost killing team. As for other things, he will naturally push them to that "mother". It's all about her, it has nothing to do with me.

Just as he was looking at the moon leisurely, thinking about whether to go down and grab two spider raw materials for fun, there was a whistling sound from afar.

The vigilance he had formed all year round made him subconsciously look in the direction of the sound, but he found that there was nothing in the deep forest.

When he realized that the sound might come from the sky and raised his head, what caught his eyes was a golden figure flying towards him like a thunderbolt arrow.

Due to the long distance from the start, he did not hear the announcement of "Thunder's Breath, One Type of Thunderbolt Flash", the next moment when he saw the figure, the sound of thunder rushing past his ears, his world was already dizzy.

When he realized that he was being attacked, his severed head fell to the ground and began to slowly dissipate with the wind, and there was no chance to say his last words.

The last thing he saw was a blond figure with his knife on the ground and his face on the ground.

Under the high-altitude surprise advantage brought by [Human Cannon], [Brother] didn't even have time to react, and he was beheaded on the spot by the thunderbolt from the volley.

My wife, Shanyi, is good at high-speed one-hit kills, and her attacks in a sleeping state are even more precise. Brother Spider is not an evil spirit known for his physique. Clean and neat.

At the same time, on the other side of the deep forest, Mo Lan and Maple Sugar heard a prompt from the system at the same time.

"You have already defeated a member of the spider family [Brother Spider], and if you defeat another member of the spider family, you will receive 100% of the basic mainline rewards."
