Chapter 193 Xiaofu
The red rider looked around at the grass and stopped slowly, his chest rising and falling due to violent breathing.
When I was running away just now, I was in a hurry and didn't pay attention to the position of other people. I accidentally got separated.
He held the mission battery in his hand, and guarded Pokémon such as Flame Rat and Pichu at his feet.
These little guys have been trained not to make a sound, but they just witnessed their companion Fiery Monkey being brutally killed, and they were all very depressed.
The driver touched his Pokémon with mixed emotions. One hellish thing was that the killing field was full of dangers and there were too many things that were difficult to understand.
Being able to die cleanly is not even the worst ending.
After a brief moment of sadness, the driver's expression became serious again and he began to think about countermeasures.
The Killing Fields will not issue missions that require death. There must be one or several ways to complete the mission.
Perhaps like what Xiaoying said, there are some clues in the grass that the players have not discovered yet.
Maybe the second battery is in Cliff's belly and needs to be killed before it can be released.
Of course, no matter what the final result is, the top priority is to find other people to join up with.
Rustling——
The grass in front of him was suddenly pushed away, and Zhao Zijin with a tired expression appeared in his sight. The soles of the shoes were suspended two or three centimeters above the ground, as if they didn't want to leave footprints.
“It’s you.”
The rider breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice: "Where are the others."
"Not found yet." Zhao Zijin said calmly: "Take the battery, let's go together."
Zhao Zijin He took out the radar guide and looked at the direction, then gestured to the driver to follow him and walked diagonally to the side of the blue arrow on the guide.
The rider and the remaining Pokémon followed quickly, fearing that they would be separated again inadvertently, "Aren't you going back to that open space?"
"Not going back. We only have one on hand. The battery is gone in vain.”
Zhao Zijin explained without looking back: "Instead of doing this, it is better to seize the time to explore the grass and look for other lines."
Before he finished saying the word "suo", the Pokémon at the driver's feet all used their skills. Wind blades, thunder and lightning, fireballs, flying leaf blades, etc. blasted towards Zhao Zijin.
Boom!
All kinds of attacks were blocked by the invisible barrier formed by telekinesis. Zhao Zijin stood on the spot unscathed. He turned around with a cold look and looked at the red driver who was running backwards holding the battery.
She raised her arms and swung them to both sides, and the tall grass in front of her suddenly swayed like Moses parting the sea.
The driver who was hit by the telekinesis also lost his footing and fell into the mud pit together with the mission battery.
The Pokémon on the side immediately tried to fight back, but Zhao Zijin directly used telekinesis to control the driver's hands, forcing him to take out the Poke Ball and put away all the Pokémon.
And smash the Poke Ball switch so that the Pokémon cannot escape.
After doing this, Zhao Zijin stepped forward, looked down at the riders in the mud pit, and asked calmly: "Why did you attack me."
"You are not Zhao Zijin, at least you are not someone I know. That.”
The driver gritted his teeth and said, "I have a skill that allows me to detect whether the opponent has killed someone recently and accumulated karma.
Originally, Zhao Zijin had no karma, but you do.
If you didn’t kill Cliff, it means you just killed someone else.”
Zhao Zijin frowned and said, “That’s why?”
“More than that. "The driver clenched his fists and said, "When Cliff first appeared, he suffered a lot of injuries, and he also said, 'Who should I kill this time?'
In addition, in the pit where the mummy of [Bismuth Yellow] was located, Pei Fei and others claimed to have seen two Catherines. One Catherine was chopped in half by an unknown entity in front of them, and the body was also taken away.
Combining this information, the entire field of tall grass is really just like what Xiaoying said, it is a time loop mode similar to "Terror Cruise".
At the same time, there are more than two groups of us players.
The Zhao Zijin I know cannot possibly kill his companions in just a few minutes.
In other words, you are the future Zhao Zijin in the time loop mode. ”
"Zhao Zijin" looked at him in surprise as if he was meeting the driver for the first time, "You are smarter than you look."
"Excessive praise."
The driver's face His smile was uglier than his tears. All Pokémon were sealed in the Poké Ball. His body was only slightly stronger than ordinary people, and he had no chance of winning against the blackened Zhao Zijin.
In a desperate situation, the driver calmed down and said: "In those movies with time loop themes, ordinary people will always get into panic.
But players must be more rational and calm. Facing another self and another group of companions, you may not be able to sit down and cooperate well
You have never thought about cooperation, whether it is cooperation to kill Cliff, or cooperation to use two batteries to open the gate to complete the task,
it proves that in the future you have obtained some kind of information and concluded that there is no possibility of cooperation.
It may be that only one group of players can escape and ascend to heaven, while the other group will be stranded here.
It may also be that you have to kill all the other living people before you can escape from the grass. "
"You answered correctly. Unfortunately, there is no reward. ”
"Zhao Zijin" snapped his fingers.
The power of thought pours quietly, penetrating the skin. The rider's internal organs were minced, and pieces of internal organs were ejected from his mouth. Just as depicted in the prophetic painting.
At the last moment of his life, he laughed with difficulty and took out an explosive device from the backpack rail with both hands.
"Zhao Zijin" did not hesitate to withdraw his telekinesis, forming a thick wall in front of him. The next second, the explosive pack exploded.
The telekinesis barrier blocked all the frontal shock waves of the explosion, but the mission battery was shot high into the air and jumped out of the tall grass roof.
"Zhao Zijin's" face turned gloomy, and the driver actually made a move at the last moment - players had tested it before, and anything that crossed the top of the tall grass would disappear.
In order to avoid failure of the mission, no one tested the battery.
At this moment, the driver detonated the explosive pack and knocked the battery away. If the battery disappeared because it crossed the tall grass roof, it would be a serious blow to Zhao. Bauhinia's revenge will not be easy for everyone.
If the battery does not disappear, but successfully crosses the tall grass, you can also use this trick to alert potential insects.
"Zhao Zijin" stood on the spot, released his telekinesis, and caught the fallen mission battery.
Fortunately, the battery itself was not damaged in any way and the power was still only 40%.
Others and Cliff could appear at any time. She took the battery and used telekinesis to crush the driver's corpse and the Poké Ball several times, and then quickly retreated.
For a moment, the tall grass was pushed away again. Li Sheng and Hui Yu looked at the corpses of the riders scattered on the ground, silent.
After all, they were acquaintances who had gone through missions together. Li Sheng was not in the mood to tell hell jokes and carefully examined the surrounding environment.
Huiyu asked: "Could it be that Mr. He who did it?"
"It's Cliff." Li Sheng said without raising his head: "The Khrushchev you are talking about is the leader of the former Soviet Union."
Hui Yu was stunned when he heard this, "Huh? Khrushchev Isn’t I a friend of Nobi Nobita?” “That’s Xiaofu.”
“Isn’t Xiaofu a character in Yitian Slaying the Dragon?”
“That’s Ji. Xiaofu.”
"Isn't Ji Xiaofu a minister with iron teeth and bronze teeth?"
"That's Ji Xiaolan."
"Isn't Xiaolan Xinyi's girlfriend?"
While the two were talking, they were getting closer and closer. The bandaged man came here and saw the fragmented corpses in the explosion crater. His voice was trembling and he said, "This, is this the driver?"
"Well, I'll do it. This was the case when the mission battery was taken away.”
Li Sheng checked the action camera carried by the red rider and found that it was completely broken and could not be restored.
The man in the bandage couldn't hold himself any longer and sat down on the ground with a plop, holding his head in his hands and shaking back and forth.
That Cliff is a Lv20 transcendent. It is difficult for players to defeat him. Now that Midnight Howl and Red Rider are dead, the situation is extremely unfavorable.
“I have to go home,” the bandaged man seemed to have recalled more memories, and said painfully: “My wife is still sick, and my daughter is in a special children’s education center. I have to go home.”
Generally speaking, the killing system tends to select ordinary people with obvious characteristics and great potential and let them become players.
As the saying goes, when Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility on a person, he must first work hard on his mind and body. Among the players, life is much more miserable.
The bandage men seem to be the worst offenders.
His parents died early, his wife was seriously ill, and his daughter had a congenital defect and had to be taken care of. As a firefighter, he himself was severely burned in a fire, and now he was dragged into the killing field.
After a while, Zhao Zijin and Catherine, who were attracted by seeing batteries flying in the sky, also came to the edge of the explosion pit, and all the survivors reunited.
“There are only one driver’s footprints in this area,”
Zhao Zijin observed for a moment, frowned and said: "There is a move called Moon Step in the Sixth Marine Style, which can temporarily stay in the air by stepping on the air. Could it be him?"
"It's hard to say, as a summoner, the driver's actual strength Limited. If he was attacked by Cliff, I estimate that he would be killed instantly without making any movement."
Li Sheng shook his head and suddenly sniffed the air as if he realized something. .
The fragrance is there but not there.
His eyes lit up, and he immediately took out an industrial-grade olfactory analyzer (electronic nose) from the three-dimensional warehouse, and installed it on his nose with the special effects of [Assembling a Muppet].
The olfactory analyzer consists of three parts: gas-sensitive sensor array, signal preprocessing and pattern recognition. It is widely used in chemical industry, food and beverage, environmental odor detection, medical examination and other fields.
After being installed on the nose, the extremely light fragrance in the air immediately becomes clear and clearly points to the three o'clock direction.
Li Sheng took the lead and ran in that direction, explaining as he ran, "In the world of Pokémon, stink flowers are also divided into male and female.
The one with overflowing pistils The pollen emits an extremely strong odor that can travel up to two kilometers away, while the odor of the male stink flower is much lighter
and becomes a light fragrance after being diluted by the air.
The driver's stink flower is male. Before he died, he must have let the stink flower contaminate the battery (or maybe the person who killed him) with pollen or nectar to give us guidance. "
If the driver is still alive at this time, he will definitely shout weakly, "This is my last ripple, 荜蜉!" "
Catherine passively followed behind and ran wildly, out of breath and asked: "No, isn't it a trap? "
Li Sheng was too lazy to answer this question. Huiyu glanced at Catherine and complained: "Auntie, do you have the right to choose? ”
What aunt, I haven’t graduated from college yet!
Catherine's expression was distorted, but there was really nothing wrong with this title - after all, Hui Yu's age was technically only seven or eight months old. No matter who you face is qualified to call you uncle or aunt.
Everyone walked forward looking for the fragrance in the air. Before they could clear the grass, they heard a shrill, very familiar female voice coming from the front, "Impossible!"
Rushing out of the high ground Grass, I saw the second Zhao Zijin kneeling in the mud pit.
She looked dazed and desperate, as if she had been greatly stimulated. In front of her was a withered male corpse wearing camouflage uniforms.
The male corpse made a hard breathing sound, as if it was in a strange state of neither death nor life.
There was a mission battery inserted in his chest, and the power had reached zero. Next to the body, there were dozens or nearly a hundred empty batteries of the same type piled up.
Suddenly seeing the second version of himself, Zhao Zijin next to Li Sheng was also extremely shocked.
She was just about to say something when she saw Zhao Zijin raise his palm, control the telekinetic short arrow, and pierce her head. She died on the spot and there was no time to save her.
Once again, the scene in the prophecy painting was reproduced.
All of this happened in just a few seconds. Zhao Zijin, who was still alive, stepped forward, picked up his dead self from the mud pit, and inspected it carefully.
There is no disguise, no human skin mask, every mole and every tooth on the headshot corpse is exactly the same as hers, this is Zhao Zijin herself.
“There is a time loop in the grass, and there is a second group of selves at the same time.”
Zhao Zijin’s mind changed quickly, and he also thought of the No. 2 Catherine he had seen before, and concluded that he and the driver Same conclusion.
Li Sheng’s focus is on the empty batteries.
The batteries are stacked together in a haphazard manner, numbering nearly a hundred. If these batteries are all part of a cycle, it proves that the cycle has been repeated at least nearly a hundred times.
Where did all those Li Shengs go?
Li Sheng thought calmly, stepped forward, looked down at the withered male corpse, and used the skull reconstruction skills in his mind to restore the original appearance of the corpse.
Caucasian white male, in his thirties, square face.
This image points to the president of the Amalgam Guild, the Level 30 transcendent, Mithril.
"Mithril?"
Li Sheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the corpse that was neither dead nor alive, "Are you not dead yet?"
"Just resurrected."
The withered corpse spoke weakly, his voice Hoarse and rough as a broken gong, "Are you the teammates of this suicidal woman? It's unlucky for you to be trapped here like amalgam.
Judging from the empty batteries around, this should be our first I have repeated this conversation ninety-eight times."
"What on earth is going on? What did you just say to the second me that caused her to commit suicide?"
Zhao Zijin dropped the body and stared at Mithril with cold eyes.
In her [Lattice Detection] skill display, the original Lv30 Mithril's current life energy is only equivalent to the Lv10-Lv12 level.
"I just told her the truth about this patch of grass."
Mithril whispered: "Only by killing everyone can we get rid of the cycle. Otherwise, it will be like me and Like Cliff, he is trapped here forever.”
