Devil's Playground

Chapter 28 Strange Island

After recovering, Yang Jin immediately consumed a soul stone to summon the great demon.

"You called me out again to solve the trouble?" the big devil looked around and asked in a bad tone.

Yang Jin shrugged his shoulders, put on a posture of "as you can see", and was prepared in his heart for the big devil to throw his hands and dodge others.

Unexpectedly, the big devil changed his voice and said earnestly: "Contractor, my role is not only to kill bugs, I can do more things for you than you can imagine."

"I don't quite understand what you mean..." Yang Jin glanced at Lin Yu hesitantly, seeing that he was also confused.

"I mean you don't have to summon me when you need me." The big devil explained solemnly, "Let's put it this way, the place I stay is actually very boring, so even if you don't need me to do something , I am also very willing to come out to see the scenery and the excitement."

Yang Jin couldn't help being stunned, Lin Yu and others were also dumbfounded.

"That is to say, how many times do you want Elegy to call you?" Lily asked boldly.

"It's not the number of times, but sooner or later." The big devil said pointedly, "You have been here for so many days, but you only thought of calling me when you were in trouble. This really made me—very, often, unhappy!"

Hearing the last five words, Yang Jin suddenly felt that the slime in his hand also has advantages, at least it can be "handled" and "squeezed" by him, it can be controlled by him, and it won't croak like the big devil in front of him. annoying.

At this time, Conch asked curiously, "How do you know we've been here for many days?"

The big devil raised the corner of his mouth, "Guess?"

Conch immediately rolled his eyes back at him.

"Everyone—" Lin Yu coughed lightly, and interjected, "Let's deal with these 'bugs' in front of us first!"

Yang Jin also came back to his senses, raised his head to meet the big devil's gaze, and asked, "Is it okay?"

The big demon looked at Yang Jin, and quickly made a movement similar to raising his eyebrows—even though he didn’t have eyebrows at all, and replied: “Okay, let’s solve the problem at hand first, and we’ll discuss other things later—say Well, what do you want to do with these bugs?"

Yang Jin was taken aback for a moment, then his heart moved, and he asked, "Can't you kill them?"

"It's easy to kill. The problem is after killing." The great demon raised his right hand and grabbed it in the air. A giant wasp immediately flew into the light curtain and fell into the hands of the great demon.The big devil pinched the part between the hornet's head and abdomen, and while admiring the hornet's struggle, he continued to say to Yang Jin and the others: "Believe me, the consequences of doing that are definitely not what you would like to see."

"Even if you are here, will it be difficult to handle?" Lin Yu asked tentatively.

"Don't you humans have a saying called 'Many ants kill elephants'? I'm just an individual." The big devil shrugged.

Lily blinked, "That is to say, if we kill the hornets in front of us, more hornets will appear next?"

"They're not wasps... Well, let's just treat them as wasps. Names are always irrelevant anyway." The big devil said to himself.

"But we need a wasp to complete the task." Lin Yu said.

"What task?" The big devil asked back with interest.

"Collect biological samples." Lin Yu described all the two tasks they had received so far.

After hearing Lin Yu's words, the big devil stretched out his free left hand, "Give me that extractor."

Yang Jin and the others were stunned. Lin Yu reacted the fastest, and immediately took out the needle-like extractor, handed it to the big devil, and then took out the camera to record the [-]D images of these giant hornets.

When Lin Yu was taking pictures, the big devil had already inserted the extractor into the chest cavity of the giant hornet, and sucked out a mass of liquid that didn't look like cells at all.

To the surprise of Yang Jin and others, the wasp did not die immediately after losing the group of "stem cells" like other creatures. It was still struggling hard, trying to pierce its huge tail needle into the body of the big demon.

"Next." The big devil threw the extractor full of stem cells to Yang Jin, then turned his arm and folded it magically, so that the hornet's head was facing out of the light curtain, and then made a forward movement, "Send" the wasp out of the light curtain.

Then, the great demon snapped his fingers, and a cloud of black mist emerged from its fingertips, flickering through the light curtain, and enveloped the swarm of wasps.

There was a brief commotion in the bee colony immediately, and the sound of flapping wings was also chaotic.But this state didn't last long, and the bee colony soon stabilized again, and then, as if they had received some kind of order, they all turned around and flew away from the wooden house.

Seeing the swarm of bees disappearing into the depths of the jungle, Conch couldn't help but ask, "Is this the end?"

"About this, I'm not too sure." The big devil turned his arm back to the normal angle, "Maybe there will be some follow-up."

Before the big devil finished speaking, the task prompt of No. 18 male servant sounded again in the minds of Yang Jin and others: "The branch plot 'Lord of the Jungle' has been triggered, please enter the nest of the alien bee colony and collect the cells of the queen bee Sample, taste royal jelly and bring back a bee egg. Note: Both cell samples and bee eggs can be placed in storage. Note: This task is an independent task, and you must complete it yourself to improve the task progress. Note: The difficulty of this task is purple , Toys who have not experienced the purple game field and toys that cannot complete the purple game field by their own strength, please consciously give up."

"No way?" Conch yelled subconsciously, "Why do we trigger purple missions in the green game field?!"

"Maybe it's because we filled this bumblebee into the illustration book." Yang Jin raised the detector that had just completed the cell detection.

"Yes, under normal circumstances, with our strength, even if we encounter these wasps, we won't be able to catch them." Lin Yu nodded clearly.

"What mission did you receive?" the big devil asked with interest.

"Shoot into the old nest of those bees." Conch pouted, and recounted the mission content to the big devil depressedly.Maybe it's because the big devil's performance after the two appearances was relatively approachable, and Conch's tone became familiar unconsciously, as if he had already regarded him as a member of the team.

But the various manifestations of the big devil made Yang Jin doubtful.

When he was summoned last time, although the power displayed by the great demon was astonishing, but after leaving the town, there was no abnormal performance. Yang Jin was surprised and didn't think more.But this time, the "humanity" deliberately revealed by the great demon, the hints inside and outside the words, and its unimpeded communication with Conch and others made Yang Jin realize that he might "underestimate" this demon.

Yang Jin originally thought that the great demon was an artificial human, essentially no different from the slime he customized.But slimes can't talk, let alone communicate with people like this demon, and the way this demon smiles and the tone it unconsciously reveals when speaking always reminds Yang Jin of what he gave to him before his resurrection. The voice of him reciting the deed.Of course, there is also its name—Ruke. As long as he thinks of another demon named Rick and the tragic ending of someone who signed a contract with it, Yang Jin’s vigilance is as straight as a thermometer put into boiling water. rise.Thinking that it also signed a contract with him, and it was so easy and unreasonable, Yang Jin's mood became even worse.

However, the big devil ignored Yang Jin's silence, and quickly got into a group with Conch and Lily, and even promised to help them complete the main task.

After making the promise, the big devil turned to Yang Jin and said, "How about it, Contractor, do you need my help?"

Yang Jin was stunned for a moment before he realized that the big devil was talking to him, he quickly restrained his thoughts, raised his eyebrows and replied, "Of course."

——It doesn't matter what the idea is, use it first!

——The ancestors have taught it long ago, even if it is a sugar-coated cannonball, you can take off the sugar coating and throw it back into the cannonball!

Yang Jin secretly comforted himself.

With the help of the big devil, Lin Yu and the others didn't want to waste time in the wooden house. After a short rest, they walked out of the safe zone and went deeper into the jungle to search for creatures and fill in the illustration book.

Lin Yu originally wanted Joe to stay in the wooden house to recuperate, but the big devil reminded them that if their goal in this game field is not only to complete the main task, then they must do well in the next few days. The preparations for returning to the log cabin will allow enough time to complete the side quests, and this also means that once they are separated from Joe, they may not be able to meet again until six days later.

Hearing what the big devil said, Lin Yu immediately changed his mind and asked Conch to carry Joe, who had fallen into a coma, out of the cabin, and went on the road with everyone.

The big devil did what he said, and fulfilled his promise very seriously. Before leaving the wooden house, he took a camera from Yang Jin, and took on the role of a guide to search for novel creatures in the following journey.

The big devil seems to have the ability of an infrared scanner, and it can tell where life exists with a glance, and it obviously knows how to use a camera better than Yang Jin and others. Included in the illustrated book.Once encountering a creature that has not been included in the illustrated book, the great demon will use another of its abilities - volleying to "suck" the creature out of its hiding place and throw it to Yang Jin and the others for disposal.

With the help of the big devil, the speed of filling the illustrated book was accelerated again, and new creatures were found in many places that had already been searched. The five sets of detectors were too busy to take turns, and several people had to activate the previous ones again. The stupid trick that was discussed - put the organisms that cannot be detected in the future into the memory first, and then take them out to continue when they are taking a break.

When the sun went down, the five humans and three non-human creatures finally stopped and found a flat place to spend the night.

After consulting the great devil, the five people did not light a bonfire, but took out lighting fixtures, and then sat around together, enjoying dinner and checking the results of the day.

Because Lin Yu ate the nutritional capsules, he didn't need to supplement his dinner. After sitting down, he took out the prey in the memory and continued to fill in the illustrated book.Although Joe was sober, he refused to let other people bear the burden after he was sober. He ran around with the team all afternoon, but he was still weak at the moment, so he consciously didn't help, lest his fingers tremble, and the more he helped, the more he helped.

Conch and Lily chatted enthusiastically with the big devil, and the topic of discussion unknowingly shifted to a weird direction.By the time Yang Jin was full and remembered to pay attention, they had already chatted about their feelings before death.

"Oh, that feeling is really not good at all!" Lily said with emotion, "I thought losing weight was the most painful thing in the world, until that moment I realized that compared with the feeling of dying, Weight loss is nothing but pediatrics!"
