The Uncanny Valley Travel Guide

[Your health drops to 82%...75%...64%...]

[Your stamina has dropped to 86%... 72%... 61%...]

The monster turned its body sideways and bounced up like a cannonball, blasting the ground it lay on to blow up a splash of gravel, while Wen Zheliu and He Qin used crossed steel knives as a barrier to block them, their abdomens were tense, their whole bodies With force, the military boots plowed several meters of deep scratches on the ground, and the soil on both sides surged, barely blocking it from a group of players!

The muscular body of this non-human creature is close at hand, and every trace of sticky and ferocious muscle texture is clearly visible, and the strong and foul smell of putrefaction also blows towards the face.Wen Zheliu's eyes turned black, and the strong smell of blood rolled in his throat. At this moment, his health and physical strength were dropping rapidly, and the back of the knife could not help but make a trembling sound of shattering.The monster roared furiously, with a bloody tongue like a steel whip, and smashed the harpoon that Muto threw for reinforcements into several pieces.

"Withdraw the knife!" He Qin roared, the tiger's mouth that was clamping the handle of the knife had burst, blood stained his palm.

There was a chilling sound of wind coming from my ear, I heard that Zhe Liu was too late to withdraw the knife, and was beaten blood spurt by the long tongue that was whipped to the back for the second time, and slammed into a tree trunk on one side in embarrassment.At this time, the players in the rear had also been evacuated, and He Qin quickly pulled away, changing the edge just before the broken knife, cutting the tendon on the monster's huge arm, allowing it to roar and rush to the open space ahead.

"Run, run!" Wen Zheliu yelled, suppressing the pain, the blow just now was too ruthless, and it was too hard for him to resist now.Now his health is only 7% left, and his physical strength has also bottomed out. He is staring at the monster's every move, his thoughts are racing, and he is thinking about a problem quickly.

The system—or the plot, what is the purpose of arranging such a powerful boss to attack them before the main quest begins?Right now, the player level is low, and the equipment is bad. How can they beat this powerful monster? Are they going to be wiped out here?

Doing anything now is futile, eleven players ran towards the opposite direction of He Qin, and ran wildly at the end of the path, the monster turned around again howling, and rushed towards the fleeing couple with their heads in their arms.He Qin's eyes were like cold stars, and there was a faint crack in the long knife. He jumped up, stepped on the tree, and turned around. neck!

"Brother!" Wen Zheliu was startled, and tried his best to get up from the ground, the blood streaks flickered, emitting a dangerous red light, "Be careful!"

The rushing monster didn't have time to stop, and it screamed in shock from the huge killing intent erupted by He Qin in an instant. At that moment, its gnarled muscles stretched out firmly, like a solid wall , actually directly shattered the blade that He Qin Rang had slashed!

He Qin frowned, he made a decisive decision, threw the knife away, and tried to escape.However, the monster who had been irritated by him repeatedly would not let him go like this. It grabbed him with its deformed and distorted huge claws, and slapped him heavily on the ground, causing a burst of smoke to fly up.

He Qin let out a muffled snort, and warm blood gushed out from between his lips and teeth. Wen Zheliu's eyes turned red. At this moment, his anger overcame the fear of facing death, and he roared, "You fucking court death! I let him go!"

The bloody tongue ejected by the monster and Wen Zheliu's furious blade flashed almost instantly at the same time. The front half of the steel knife was suddenly split into two by the tongue, and flew past his cheek. The half of the broken knife slammed down hard, and it stuck straight into He Qin's forearm that was holding He Qin, black blood spattered, and the monster suddenly let go of its claws, roaring in pain!

In an instant, Wen Zheliu felt a strange sensation in his palm, besides the cracking sound of muscle breaking, he seemed to have cut something metallic.

However, at the same time that this monster was pinned down by them, another monster howled like a laugh and Lin Fangfei's crazy scream came from a distance!

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

...will they die here?

Mu Tuo's angry roar, Zhou Qing's terrified scream, and the crowd's crying and noise seemed to be far away from him, only the woman's moan|moan when she was dying and the man's miserable pleading for mercy gradually became clearer. Teeth sore and legs trembling.After forcing the monster to loosen its claws, the last trace of his physical strength was completely exhausted. Wen Zheliu's eyeballs were bloodshot, and his body weighed more than a thousand catties. He couldn't hold it anymore, and fell heavily beside He Qin.

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

——It was He Qin, who turned over with the last of his strength and blocked Wen Zheliu.

However, at this critical moment, the monster did not make a move for a long time.

The howl of the companion in the distance was like a call. Even though it really wanted to kill these two bold and powerful human beings, it still hesitated a few steps unwillingly, and then let out a sinister growl, beating all the sticky saliva in its mouth. Landing on He Qin's back, he turned around and jumped into the dense forest.

The movement in the forest gradually faded away, and there was silence in Wen Zheliu's ears, except for the hidden rusting of clothes, He Qin's low panting, and his coughing choked by blood stasis.

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

"What's the matter, baby?" He Qin's voice was full of laughter.After gradually getting away from the dangerous situation of fighting, he withdrew his icy cold edge, and turned back into the familiar, carefree He Qin who 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 taken aback for a moment, then laughed, halfway through the laugh, he choked on the blood in his throat, so he fell on Wen Zheliu's body trembling and coughing violently.

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

Wen Zheliu: "..."

Wen Zheliu was furious, and raised his hand to push He Qin with the 1% of his newly recovered physical strength: "Get up quickly! I'm going to be angry!"

He Qin rolled down from him with a smile, and suddenly caught something out of the corner of his eye, he stood up slowly and calmly, picked up the broken knife on the ground and threw it into the grass, turned around and raised Wen Zheliu's arm Pick it up, wrap it around your shoulders.

"Can you still go, if you can't go, brother will go behind your back." He said in a serious tone, pressing his thin lips against Wen Zheliu's ear.

Wen Zheliu's face became hot, and He Qin's magnetic voice was soft and low, which made his ears blush. He was about to speak when he felt a weight in his pocket, but it was He Qin who put a bag inside. what.

His heart trembled, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "No, just walk slowly."

Right now, the two of them can be said to be the main contributors to repelling the monsters. The rest of the players naturally have no objection to Wen Zheliu's request. Mu Tuo walked beside He Qin and said in a tone of surprise: "Brother Wendi , I thought you were just a novice player before, but I didn't expect you and your brother to be such powerful characters!"

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

Wen Zheliu couldn't complain, the third successor of N-Star Company learned "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, Du Zijun glanced at them, there was no longer the guard in his eyes, but a touch of seriousness, her cigarettes were either exhausted, or they were knocked out in the battle just now. At this time, she was holding a straw in her mouth, and she was twisting it skillfully between her lips, making the corners of Zhe Liu's mouth twitch endlessly.

"I may have guessed a little reason," she said lightly, the straw swayed as she spoke, but it just didn't fall down, "When you get to the place, you will know."

Both Wen Zheliu and He Qin smelled an increasingly strong smell of blood, and the players walking in front also slowly stopped, Xiong Lin turned his head to look at them, and couldn't bear to say: "You... look Bar."

Wen Zheliu's pupils tightened in an instant, He Qin stretched out his palm, and gently covered his nose, neutralizing the disgusting smell coming towards his face.

He 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 how could he not It was unimaginable that they would die so...so miserable.

There was only one and a half people left on the ground in front of him. Lu Hai's body was twisted on the ground in a twisted posture, as if he had been roughly thrown to death by a huge force, but his eye sockets were completely empty, and the broken eyeballs froze. Hanging on the pale face, it was like tears made up of two balls of flesh and blood.His scarlet eye sockets are black and staring forward unconsciously, most of the skull on the top of his head has been cut off, like a water ladle with half of it left, the inside is empty, only red but not white.

"At that time, everyone was running for their lives. I didn't expect another monster to jump out of nowhere..." The player named Ke Wenyan turned his eyes to one side, the expression on his face distorted by excessive fear. His former full-time occupation It was the musician, "His girlfriend was caught first, and he rushed to rescue him, and then he was..."

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

"Then he was shattered by the monster's skull, and his brain was scraped away with his tongue." Du Zijun spat out the straw, his tone so calm and cold, "The monster should only target them. As for his girlfriend, where is it?" "

She raised her chin and directed Wen Zheliu and He Qin to look at the half of the corpse on the other side. It could be seen that Lin Fangfei was torn in half by some kind of huge force, and there were spilled blood and blood all over the ground. Broken internal organs.The monster only took her upper body, and the lower body generously stayed here with her boyfriend.

Wen Zheliu just glanced at it briefly, 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 beep again!

Hearing this illusory female voice after a thrilling battle made everyone feel like a lifetime away.

[Congratulations to the player, you have met the conditions to open the game mode! 】

[Currently there are only two modes:

① Escape mode: All players complete the main task of the first ring without damage, and the escape mode will be turned on.In this mode, every time a player is lost, the total amount of rewards will be reduced by a certain percentage, and the difficulty of the game will be increased by a certain percentage.

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

[Please check the situation consciously. 】

【I wish you a pleasant journey. 】

Everyone digested this hint in shock. After a long 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 the way we play in Survival World."

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

"Then are they..." Zhou Qing's voice trembled slightly, "They have already become vegetative in the real world, and they will never be able to wake up for the rest of their lives?"

Zhou Yao sighed, put his arms around her shoulders and said, "Let's go, first go to the hut to find a place to rest, and let's talk about other things after completing the main task of the first ring."

Several players pushed the bodies of Lu Hai and Lin Fangfei into the dense forest, lest the smell of blood and the remains would attract any troublesome things.Muto handed them a wooden stick and a crowbar, and said, "Your knife is gone. If you don't mind it, use this first."

Although these are props left by the deceased, but now, what is there to dislike?Wen Zheliu brought them over and thanked Mu Tuo. Zhou Qing curled his lips aside and said, "Lin Fangfei still thinks this is not good, so she throws it away and refuses to take it. Now it's fine, and even her life is gone."

Wen Zheliu's heart skipped a beat, he had a vague guess, and he said with a smile: "Then everyone, hold on to your weapons and don't let them go."

He glanced at the crowbar in his hand again, and couldn't help sighing: "This is the holy sword of physics. It's no problem to pierce Darkseid's eyes after using it. Why don't you know how to cherish it..."

He Qin glanced at him: "This kind of ancient comic plot, thank you for remembering it."

"...Don't you remember it too? Hey! Who have the right to say that about me!"

The dense fog gradually cleared, and a group of 11 people, wounded and limping, finally arrived at the "Marian Cottage" mentioned on the station sign.

To the players' surprise, the "hut" in front of them is not small at all, and even looks like a mansion in the forest.

This three-story building occupies a large area, and the typical European style makes it full of an elegant and romantic feeling, but the dark colored windows, sharp ribbed vaults, and mottled windows eroded by wind and rain The wall paint casts a layer of depressing feeling for this romance.The sky is gloomy, the dense forest is deep, and the shadow of death is still lingering in everyone's hearts. The crows in the mountains screamed, sending the continuous echoes to farther distances...

Zhou Qing shook his shoulders, and took a step back behind 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 didn't know why.

He Qin smiled and said, "What do you think of this house? FolkVictorian style architecture, a masterpiece born in the Victorian period. A skilled carpenter can use drawings to create the most cumbersome and gorgeous decorations on it, but in order to avoid this kind of Due to the limitations of the small family, the Gothic unique pointed windows are mixed in, and the structure of the porch is changed. Doesn’t it look amazing?”

His tone was like that of a child showing off candies. When he said this, how could the scene in front of him have a mysterious and frightening atmosphere?Wen Zheliu couldn't laugh or cry, but he still answered honestly: "It's pretty good. Brother, you know it so clearly, have you seen the follow-up plot?"

"No." He Qin shook his head, "Unfortunately, I can only learn about this kind of insignificant leftovers. From the current point of view, only my uncle is the only one who has the ability to spoil the story, and the others don't even think about it."

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

After a while, the door opened a small crack, and a thin, pale blonde woman was holding a candle holder and watching them vigilantly through the crack.

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