Chapter 41 Clay Man Challenge
Everyone’s eyes were looking at this clay man monster.
Some people are cautious and say nothing, hiding in the crowd for fear of being noticed; some people want to ask, but are afraid of the clay monster and dare not speak, waiting for others to come forward.
"Look carefully, everyone. According to my estimation, if you fail to fulfill its requirements, you will die!"
Xia Hongyao reminded loudly.
In fact, it is very dangerous for her to speak like this. She will easily be judged by the mud monster as not complying with the assessment discipline and be punished with death.
"What the hell is this thing?"
The person who asked Xia Hongyao was a man with a big belly, short hair, round eyes, and a pointed chin. When he spoke, it seemed like there was a lump of phlegm stuck in his throat.
“It’s rule pollution!”
Before Xia Hongyao finished speaking, he was interrupted by a clay figurine.
"Quiet!"
The clay figurine stared at Xia Hongyao and the pot-bellied man: "Otherwise I will deprive you of the qualifications to take the examination!"
When everyone heard this, their expressions tightened.
Although I don’t know what will happen after being deprived of qualifications, I guess it’s not a good thing!
“Next, I will teach you how to make a clay figurine on the spot. Those who succeed will be the master!”
The clay figurine walked in the muddy red mud pool, making a squeaking sound every time it set foot.
"What if it fails?"
Xia Hongyao asked. In fact, she guessed that the answer should be death.
“Failed, go back and rebuild!”
The clay figurine snorted coldly.
Xia Hongyao would like to ask, by reinventing, do you mean letting people relearn and make clay figurines again? It's not like putting people in a furnace and burning them to death in a physical sense, right?
"Young master, please say a few words!"
Ma Yuan has a big head, is this woman a big-headed and brainless woman?
This is a forbidden disaster with a pollution intensity of 5.0. Can't you be more cautious?
“That Black Shark III is not here!”
Lin Baici's eyes wandered among the crowd.
Visually there were about 820 people on site.
Jin Yingzhen said that pollution regulations cannot be exempted, so except for those who died in the sea, all the passengers on the G1955 train should be here.
But Lin Baici didn’t see the Black Shark III.
“Didn’t that guy take out a conch, blow out a bubble, and wrap him up before the rules were contaminated?”
Ma Yuan smiled bitterly and felt a little envious: "That conch is called a nautilus, and it is one of the few sacred objects that can exempt people from pollution according to the rules!"
As expected, the main members of the Lost Coast team all have the best equipment.
“Very expensive?”
Lin Baici raised an eyebrow.
“It’s necessary, Nautilus has a price but no market on the black market.”
Xia Hongyao knew the market situation: "Because god hunters often enter the gods' ruins to collect meteor stones and contain the gods' remains, they usually encounter several rule contaminations. Although the Nautilus can only be exempted once, it can save lives when used at critical moments."< br>
“Yeah!”
Lin Baici glanced at Xia Hongyao and Ma Yuan.
Black Shark III probably didn’t leave, but waited for everyone to die in the pollution of the rules and come over to lick their bodies. As long as he passed this sacred game, he would face him.
If you can kill him, how will Nautilus be divided?
Can it be exclusive?
【You haven’t finished eating the food in the bowl, but you already miss the food in the pot? 】
【Very good, very ideal, only in this way can you have the style of a hungry man! 】
【I admire you! 】
The god praised.
When Lin Baici heard what Nagami said, he took two deep breaths and threw away his distracting thoughts.
Go through this level first!
“Listen up!”
The clay figurine stopped and explained loudly: “The first step is to get the clay embryo!”
The faces of the passengers were filled with tears. With anxiety, worry, and nervousness, they all looked at the clay figurine more than thirty meters away, wondering what to do.
The clay figurine squatted down and thrust its hands into the mud, pushing aside the muddy and wet red soil as if playing with mud.
“What should we do?”
18D looked at Lin Baici.
“Do as it says!”
Xia Hongyao squatted down and grabbed a handful of mud.
To make a clay figure,
the first step is definitely to collect soil.
Most travelers thought so, so they all squatted down.
Lin Baici looked around, activated the chanting, and asked the god in his heart: "If I walk next to this clay figurine, will I be in danger?"
[What if there is danger? 】
Nagami asked back.
Lin Baici only hesitated for two seconds before walking towards the clay figurine.
This red mud pond was so muddy, like a swamp, that every time Lin Baici pulled out his feet, it was very laborious, and it felt like his shoes were about to fall off.
Xia Hongyao was startled when he saw Lin Baici's movements: "What are you doing?"
Ma Yuan was about to squat down when he heard the sound and glanced over.
"Get closer to it and see clearly!"
Lin Baici explained.
More than thirty meters, not too far. With Lin Baici’s eyesight, he could see clearly, but he was worried about missing some details.
“Are you crazy?”
18D shouted in shock, then quickly closed his mouth and quickly glanced at the clay figurine to make sure it didn’t notice him. Then he felt relieved and lowered his voice. The voice persuaded: "Are you tired of living? Are you worried that the clay monster won't cause trouble for you?"
"The distance is not long, so you won't miss anything!"
Ma Yuan felt that Lin Baici was a good person and worth making friends with, so he tried to persuade him.
“I still want to get closer!”
Lin Baici did not listen to the advice.
Pah! Bang!
Lin Baici remembered the time when he was playing in the muddy pond as a child.
Almost all the passengers squatted down, and those who didn't squat didn't dare to move for fear of attracting the attention of the clay figurine. Only Lin Baici walked past alone.
So this time, he attracted special attention.
“Xiao Linzi!”
Xia Hongyao didn’t want anything to happen to Lin Baici, so he immediately got up and chased after her.
"Aren't you afraid of clay figurines?"
Lin Baici asked back.
“It’s useless to be afraid!”
Xia Hongyao’s face showed an eagerness to try: “And I am confident that with my wisdom, I can pass this taboo game!”
“……”
Lin Baici was stunned and subconsciously glanced at Xia Hongyao's chest.
You said Xiong is big,
I admit it!
Wisdom?
Do you have this?
Lin Baici had not forgotten that God rated this girl with a high ponytail as double A in strength and speed and D in intelligence.
"By the way, have you discovered anything?"
Xia Hongyao covered her mouth with her hands and asked in a low voice.
Previously, Lin Baici relied on reasoning to find Octopus Wan and kill him, which made Xia Hongyao recognize his IQ and felt that his opinions should be of reference value.
“Do you think this clay figurine squatted down casually? Or did it find a special position?”
Lin Baici wanted to hear other people's opinions.
"Huh?"
Xia Hongyao was stunned: "Has it chosen a position? Didn't it squat down after saying 'take the mud embryo'?"
"I'm not sure, so I have to take a closer look!"
Lin Baici explained.
Xia Hongyao frowned, thinking about the difference between the two, and then discovered with horror that if the clay figurine squatted down seemingly randomly, it actually chose its position, which meant that it was not just a random piece of red mud.
Nowadays, many tourists squat down directly to get the red mud in front of them.
Lin Baici's concerns may be that he is overthinking, but his careful thinking is very powerful.
“As expected of my favorite team member!”
Xia Hongyao is very satisfied with his vision.
Lin Baici stood one meter away from the clay man monster, smiling, but in fact, his body was already tense. If this guy made any change, he would immediately summon the Muscle Buddha.
The clay figurine stared at Lin Baici with its emotionless eyes.
The scene was eerily quiet,
it was suffocating.
The passengers looked at Lin Baici in disbelief.
Is this guy crazy?
Actually approached that clay monster?
One second!
Two seconds!
Three seconds
...
After ten seconds, the clay figurine lowered its head: "The first step is to take the mud embryo. First remove the relatively wet mud from the pond, and then remove the layer of red mud, which needs to be drier."< br>
The clay figurine said and acted at the same time.
Xia Hongyao squatted down and obeyed, while Lin Baici kept staring at the clay figurine without blinking or missing any detail.
Among the passengers, there are about sixty cautious people.
They thought about the reason why Lin Baici was close to the clay man monster, and seeing that he was not attacked, they all came over boldly.
There are many tourists who would not expect this, but will follow suit.
Seeing so many people approaching the clay figurine, they felt that they would be at a disadvantage if they didn't come over, so they quickly followed.
Soon, more than 200 people gathered around the clay figurine.
"What are you doing? You're blocking our sight! Get out of the way!"
The pot-bellied man roared.
These people are timid and dare not approach the clay monster.
“Why don’t you take the mud embryo?”
Xia Hongyao dug out a lump of red mud the size of a coconut.
Squatting down, Lin Baici pushed aside the thin mud in front of him and dug down about fifteen centimeters before revealing the relatively dry red mud.
Lin Baici grabbed a few handfuls of red mud, squeezed it, looked at the handprints left on it, and stopped.
“What’s wrong?”
Xia Hongyao didn’t understand why Lin Baici stopped.
“I feel like this viscosity is not enough!”
Lin Baici recalled the clay man’s actions when digging out red mud.
It first digs a few handfuls, then pinches it. This action should be to test the viscosity and hardness of the red mud, or the dryness, before continuing.
“The viscosity is not enough?”
Xia Hongyao’s eyebrows frowned, enough to pinch a sea crab to death. She looked at the red mud ball in her hand: “How can you tell? ”
“Handprint!”
Lin Bai’s words were concise and concise.
"Are you talking nonsense? Can you tell the viscosity of red mud from a fingerprint?"
Song Li questioned.
Her feet were bare, stepping in the mud, and her beige studded high heels were held in her left hand.
This pair of shoes was quite expensive, more than seven hundred yuan, and she was reluctant to throw them away.
She felt that Lin Baici was an upright person, and since he was relatively strong, she should feel safe following him, so she came over.
"The key is that you can remember how deep the fingerprint left by this monster on the red mud is?"
Ma Yuan was curious.
“I think this red mud is not much different, right?”
18D felt that Lin Baici was overthinking.
Lin Baici didn't bother to explain, so he squatted in a different place and dug out the red mud. But two minutes later, he stood up again with empty hands.
He was not satisfied.
“Don’t look around like a headless fly. Think about the characteristics of the position chosen by the clay figurine.”
Lin Baici looked around the clay figurine.
There is a lot of water, and when you step on it, your feet sink deeper than other places.
Lin Baici began to look for a position based on this condition.
Got it!
Lin Baici chose a puddle, squatted down, and pushed aside the red mud in front of him. Comparing the depth of the hole that the clay figurine had just dug with the mud embryo, he dug more than ten centimeters deep. Finally I found a suitable piece of red clay.
Ma Yuan felt that Lin Baici was making a fuss out of a molehill and was too cautious.
"The red mud here is fine. Do you want to get some?"
Lin Baici asked Ma Yuan and 18D.
"Why didn't you ask me?"
Xia Hongyao was puzzled.
Please vote for recommendations, monthly votes will make the list, thank you all!
