Chapter 269 Yard
"I'll give you whatever you want for equipment and supplies, but it's a pity that I want to bring that fat man with me, but the people at Tianshu Tower don't agree." Wang Xiyi said while starting the car.
"In my opinion, if you really want to take that fat man into the occupied area, I'm afraid he will really choose to commit suicide." Ye Jiu in the passenger seat shook his head, "You can't fake that kind of fear."< br>
"I always feel that our trip to Chunming City this time was in vain. Apart from knowing that there might be a regular monster in the occupied area, we didn't get any useful information at all." Wang Xiyi held the steering wheel with one hand. , the other hand took out a nutrition bar from the armrest box, skillfully tore open the aluminum foil package with his teeth, and stuffed it into his mouth.
According to the "information" provided by Li Junwen, Tianshu Tower provided the team with two special foods based on the characteristic of "hungry" - one is an improved version of the ultra-high-calorie nutrition bar that Wang Xiyi has been eating; and the other is The caloric content is the same as ordinary food, but special rations that can regulate neurotransmitters and suppress appetite are added.
"Rule-type monsters, rule-type monsters..." Ye Jiu was wearing a thick armor, and when he moved slightly, there was a sound of metal armor pieces rubbing against each other, "Have you ever dealt with rule-type monsters?" < br>
"Bao Si, does she count?" Wang Xiyi asked.
"...Reluctantly, let's forget it."
"That means we have dealt with him before." Wang Xiyi said.
"No... Baosi is a human being, not a monster." Ye Jiu shook his head repeatedly, "But then again, even such a big mountain can be led by her... She just inherited it. It’s hard to imagine what a real rule-type monster would look like if it were part of the power of a rule-type monster.”
"It's just like a rule-based thing. For example, if the rule is 'death', then you have to die." Wang Xiyi rolled her eyes at him.
"Then if what we are about to face is really a regular monster called 'Hungry', I feel like these snacks with added ingredients are completely useless." Ye Jiu said.
"I never expected them to come in handy." Wang Xiyi stepped on the accelerator and the car slowly accelerated forward.
"Anyway," Zhulong's voice came from the intercom, "'Hunger' is better than 'death', 'dismemberment', 'burning' and the like, at least it will not be directly fatal - Lian Li Ordinary people like Junwen can return to the civilized world alive. I think our survival probability can't be lower than him, right?"
"Yes, that makes sense." Ye Jiu nodded in agreement, and the armor on his body made another clanging sound.
"On the contrary, it's you." Ye Jiu turned around and looked at Ling Xiao and Jiang Yu in the back seat. "This is your first mission for both of you, so you went straight into the occupied area. The enemy you faced said Maybe it’s an extremely rare armor-type monster... Tsk, you two have achieved something that many hunters have been unable to achieve in their lifetimes. How is it? Do you have any thoughts?”
"No." Ling Xiao said expressionlessly.
"I...I don't know how I should feel." Jiang Yu's tone was a little awkward, "A-type monster...is it really that powerful?"
"It doesn't matter whether it's powerful or not, but it must be the weirdest one." Ye Jiu said, "Speaking of which, don't you know anything about the classification of weird things?"
Jiang Yu shook his head.
During this period of time, she has been undergoing various physical examinations and has no time to receive corresponding training courses... In fact, her understanding of strange things is not even as good as the group of temporary investigators who received induction training with Sun Hang. member.
"If I have time on the road, I really need to give you some extra lessons." Ye Jiu said.
The reason why Jiang Yu and Ling Xiao were included in the team was firstly because they took the initiative to apply to participate in this operation, and secondly because the combat power currently available in Tianfu City was really stretched.
The eternal night has been falling for some time, and attacks by strange creatures have occurred in various counties and cities... The Disaster Countermeasures Committee is eager to break a hunter into eight pieces for use, and all departments of the research institute and investigation bureau are working overtime. By the time of the explosion, cigarettes, coffee and powerful refreshing drugs had become strategic commodities with the same priority as drinking water.
According to the original plan of the Disaster Countermeasures Committee, after the early chaos has passed, all parts of the federation will gradually launch support for the Shuzhou region... But fortunately, not long after the comprehensive support plan was launched, something happened in Baikal City. .
At least 30% of the manpower and material resources originally allocated to Shuzhou were transferred to the north. Not only that, reinforcement plans in various places were also completely postponed - the incidents in Shuzhou and Baikal City meant "the second large-scale activity of strange things" The "period" may have arrived, and almost everyone in the know is in danger, because no one knows where the next place to encounter "natural disaster-level" monsters will be.
And many ordinary people with a keen sense of smell also feel that the crisis is approaching... There is no need to read what is discussed in those online forums, just open the stock trading software and look at the military industry and energy sectors that have been trading at their daily limit for several days. It’s enough to make people realize the seriousness of the problem.
Not only that, but food and medical copyrights have also begun to show an upward trend. Although the official media has repeatedly advised people not to hoard supplies, as long as the canned and bagged rice in one supermarket is sold out, similar products in the city will soon be sold out. There will be signs of being out of stock.
Panic is contagious among people, and it spreads much faster than the virus.
The soldiers guarding the roadside raised the temporary blocking pole, and the convoy quickly passed through and drove into the vast mountains.
……
……
Sun Hang walked along the street. He found that wherever he went, the lights of the buildings on both sides went out... as if he was an evil star that would bring misfortune and disaster...
"Damn it, it's against Tiangang." Sun Hang cursed in a low voice, "You are obviously the monsters, right? Can you have some basic dignity of monsters?"
He walked forward for a while, and a large courtyard appeared on the right side of his field of vision - compared with the previous dilapidated buildings on both sides of the street, this courtyard was obviously much more luxurious, with red painted wooden doors and two sides of the door. The stone lions all told Sun Hang: This is a wealthy family in the town.
Sun Hang took out a mirror and took a look at the yard - just as he expected, in the mirror, the vermilion paint on the door turned into dark red blood stains, and the stone lions on both sides turned into two groups that were dripping. The rotten flesh was dripping with pus, and countless maggots were burrowing in and out of the two large pieces of rotten flesh. The scene was extremely delicious.
To be honest, until now, Sun Hang couldn't be sure whether what he saw with his naked eyes was real or whether the picture in the mirror was real.
Or... neither.
Sun Hang stepped forward, reached out and knocked on the vermilion door.
No one opened the door, and there was no movement in the yard.
Sun Hang knocked a few more times, each one more urgently and then harder.
There was still silence in the courtyard.
"Is there anyone? If there's no one... I'll just do it myself." Sun Hang shouted loudly. After saying that, he pulled out his pistol and put it against the door latch.
"Boom! Boom!"
Deafening gunfire echoed over the town. The hunting pistol opened two sea bowl-sized holes in the wooden door. The door latch behind the hole had broken, and the two heavy doors slowly opened with a creaking sound.
Opposite the courtyard gate is a shadow wall, which is also a common design in ancient Xiazhou courtyards. There are fine reliefs carved on the shadow wall. Unfortunately, most of the reliefs have been weathered, and only some bristles, scales and claws can be seen vaguely.
"Dragon?" Sun Hang looked at the relief on the wall for a while and muttered to himself.
The ancients rarely used dragon patterns for decoration, because in ancient times, the dragon was the symbol of the emperor. If the common people's clothes, utensils or homes have dragon elements, it means they have a rebellious heart, which will cause them to lose their temper. A serious crime on the head - even a noble family would only carve some auspicious beasts from myths and legends on the wall at most. They would never dare to carve a dragon...especially a five-clawed golden dragon on the shadow wall.
After all, the screen wall is the first thing you see when entering the yard...
However, considering that this courtyard should be an antique building built in modern times, the feudal dynasty on the Xiazhou continent has long been destroyed by this time. As long as no one stupidly jumps out and claims to be emperor, let alone carving a dragon on the wall, Even if everything in your daily life is tattooed with dragon patterns and you become a contemporary "Ye Gong", no one will care about you.
There is a large fan-shaped flower bed at both corners behind the courtyard wall. However, the vegetation in the flower bed has long since died, leaving only the charred remains that look like ghosts. A tattered copper kettle was thrown next to the flower bed. A little further away, there was a broom made of sorghum.
Sun Hang bypassed the shadow wall and walked straight towards the main house. But before he got close to the main house, he heard a faint murmur coming from behind.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
He turned around, and there was nothing behind him except the wall of shadow.
There was no dragon-shaped relief on the back of the screen wall. Instead, there were some geometric patterns. Sun Hang took two steps closer. When the next murmur sounded, it became obviously much clearer.
Are the walls talking?
No, the thing that spoke is hiding in the wall...
Although the murmur became clearer, Sun Hang still couldn't understand its content - it didn't seem to be human language. At least, it's not Chinese, nor the common foreign languages that Sun Hang can distinguish.
"Is it... a dialect?"
There are many ethnic groups in Yunnan and Dian, and different ethnic groups have different languages. Learning these minority languages is no easier than foreign languages such as English and French...
Sun Hang got closer, and just when he was almost putting his ear against the screen wall, a hand of the same color as the wall suddenly stretched out from the wall and grabbed his shoulder.
"Fuck." Sun Hang subconsciously wanted to break away, but the moment the hand touched Sun Hang, he let go, and then he twitched violently, and the murmurs from the wall turned into pain. screams.
"What the hell?" Sun Hang picked up the broom on the ground and poked the hand protruding from the wall. The texture of the broom handle was very hard, as if the hand was also carved from bluestone.
Sun Hang was too lazy to further explore what was inside the wall. He directly pulled out his pistol and fired three shots at the shadow wall.
The thickness of the shadow wall is nearly a foot, the base is made of blue bricks, and the relief is a complete bluestone slab. Even with the power of a hunting pistol, it cannot be completely penetrated.
The relief had been shattered into pieces, revealing what was underneath - it was a strange body carved out of stone. It seemed to be a human body, but there were eight arms that Sun Hang could count. many.
"Bang!"
Another shot hit the "torso" accurately. The relief shattered, and the blue-gray stone was still exposed inside.
Sun Hang took out the mirror. He originally thought that these stones would turn into terrifying flesh and blood in the mirror, but what he didn't expect was that what appeared in the mirror were also stones, but the color of the stones changed from blue-gray to A white color similar to that of plaster.
"What are you doing..."
The carved limbs were still struggling in pain, and the screams gradually turned into weak moans.
[P.S. Since the new volume opened, I have seen a lot of comments complaining about why there is an inexplicable plot in which all skills and abilities are lost... To be honest, I wanted to ignore such comments at first, but there was more than one Readers brought it up, so I thought maybe I should explain it to everyone.
First of all, this book is a weird novel, not a traditional fantasy novel about fighting monsters and leveling up. Personally, I hate having fixed combat power and level systems when writing books. In a strange world, no matter how high your physical combat power level is, you can only become the opponent's plaything when encountering rules-based monsters.
Even in fantasy novels, the competition between the top leaders is not about combat power, but about things like laws and avenues...
The so-called power and skills...these are all tools and things external to the body. They can be obtained at will, and naturally they can be discarded at will.
That's never what's really important.
Besides, I’ve already written about weirdness, so readers can’t just believe whatever I write about, right? Maybe I am a fool? The author said that the protagonist has lost all his powers, does the protagonist really lose all his powers? Who the hell is the author?
Finally, I would like to give you a piece of advice, don’t believe every word written by this guy whose ID is An Chenfenfen. If what he writes is contrary to your common sense and knowledge, please don’t...
■■■■■
Don't...
Don't believe...believe...■■...
? ? ?
Please believe what I write. As a conscientious author, I will definitely not deceive readers, right?
