"But, you killed this alone, and none of us helped." Langya said hesitantly.
"No, you have helped us a lot." Lin Lin shook his head and chuckled, then said: "If you hadn't agreed to Wu Gu's request to come to help us, I wouldn't have been able to recover and give this thing to Kill it, so you deserve half of the credit for killing this monkey, so just accept it, otherwise I will get angry."
Seeing Lin Lin's insistence, Langya stopped being pretentious and nodded in agreement with Lin Lin's proposal, and then said: "However, since we have collected half of the corpse, the reward promised by Mr. Wu Gu is no longer needed. This half It’s completely worth the reward, and you may even get more.”
"Remuneration?" Lin Lin was stunned and turned to look at Wu Gu.
Wu Gu touched his head and said with a smile: "There is nothing we can do about it. No one will help a stranger unconditionally now, but they are indeed very good and do not take advantage of others."
He did not say what specific items were used in exchange, but it is not difficult to guess that it was probably an important treasure he had in exchange for it. Otherwise, these people would not have risked their lives to come to support. .
However, since Lang Ya had already said that this half corpse was enough, Lin Lin did not need to ask what it was. If Wu Gu wanted to say something, he did not need to ask, Wu Gu would tell him.
At this moment, Lang Ya frowned and stared behind Lin Lin, his pupils shrinking instantly, as if he had seen something terrifying.
"What's wrong?" Lin Lin looked at Langya in confusion, and turned around following Langya's eyes. On the horizon not far away, a red eye was quickly approaching them.
The owner of the red eyes is a humanoid creature. Different from the monkeys that appeared before, this humanoid creature looks more similar to humans. If it weren't for the fact that he only had one red eye on his head, Lin Lin would have thought it was A human being.
This was because Lin Lin's restored night vision ability allowed him to see clearly the appearance of humanoid creatures. In the eyes of Langya and the others, in the boundless darkness, an ever-expanding eye suddenly appeared, and quickly approach them.
"What on earth is that?" Langya's team members also frowned. Monkeys have three eyes. This is something they all know, but the one that appears now actually has only one eye, and by comparison, the opponent's eyes seem to be It was bigger than the combined three eyes of the giant monkey that Lin Lin had just killed.
"Retreat to the safe zone!" Lin Lin shouted loudly. He finally knew what the deep darkness meant. It seemed that it was the Cyclops that suddenly appeared.
Hearing Lin Lin's loud shouting, everyone didn't take it seriously at first, and still buried their heads in collecting the monkey corpses scattered on the ground. After all, Lin Lin was not their manager, and it was normal for them not to listen to Lin Lin's words. .
"Listen to Mr. Ziguang, put down what you are doing, and everyone return to the shelter!" Seeing that no one moved, Langya also shouted loudly.
Langya's shouting was different. Although they were also a temporary team, Langya was their current leader after all. So after hearing Langya speak, everyone raised their heads, and then they saw what Langya saw. A huge eye.
"What is that?" a pilot murmured.
"What does he care about? Hurry back to the shelter!" The mecha on the side reached out to grab it and began to move towards the shelter.
After being reminded by his companion, the pilot finally came to his senses, broke free from his companion's arm, and started running on his own.
With the retreat of these two people, everyone else also took action, throwing everything in their hands on the ground and rushing towards the shelter.
"Let's leave quickly." Lang Ya said in a deep voice. Without waiting for Lin Lin and the others to reply, they turned around and ran away. As for the giant monkey's body on the ground, no one paid attention to it.
It’s a joke, now I don’t know who the owner of that eye in the dark is. What if it is what kind of giant beast? Is money or life more important?
"He's right, retreat." Lin Lin nodded lightly, and he also discovered something was wrong at this time.
Do you seem to be able to see more things than others? It can be known from the voices of those people that they can only see eyes in the dark, but I can see the clear outline of the monster. What is going on? You obviously can't see through the darkness before entering Karls' space again?
However, now is not the time to dwell on these things. Seeing that humanoid creature getting closer and closer, if he doesn't run away, he will probably become the ghost of the monster. I believe no one wants to become like that, at least for Lin. Lin said, he didn't want to become the monster's excrement.
So, Lin Lin took Lux and Wu Gu and accelerated towards the shelter.
Fortunately, their current location was not far from the shelter, and it didn't take them long to get there.
Just as the last mecha stepped into the shelter, a deafening roar came from the darkness.
'Roar! '
Hearing this sound, everyone felt as if their eardrums were being pricked by needles.
Then, the earth shook, and the monster that followed them gradually left, and it seemed that everything ended like this.
"It hasn't left yet!" Lin Lin grabbed Langya, who was about to leave the shelter to carry the monster's body, and said in a deep voice, "That thing was right where we were just now."
"Are you sure?" Lang Ya looked at Lin Lin with a puzzled look. It was obviously dark outside the shelter. Why was Lin Lin so sure that the monster was still where they were just now?
Seeing the suspicious look in his eyes, Lin Lin thought of an excuse: "I have a special ability. I can see more clearly in the dark than others. Trust me."
After hearing Lin Lin's explanation, he didn't doubt anything. Such people did exist. He had met a few before, but Langya was surprised that this kind of ability could still be used here?
"Then what is it doing now?" Langya asked curiously. Lin Lin was the only one who could see outside now, and he had no one else to ask.
"It..." Lin Lin paused. Judging from the movements of the humanoid creature, it seemed to be eating? And its food was the monsters that Lin Lin and the others had just killed.
Hearing this, Lang Ya was stunned. It had been so long since the second round of trials started, but he had never seen any monsters devouring corpses of the same kind.
At this moment, Langya thought that the one-eyed monkey in the darkness was some kind of special monkey, and had not thought about what other species it was.
"Now is not a good time to leave here. Let's wait until the deep darkness is over before leaving." Lin Lin said lightly. If the so-called deep darkness is full of such terrifying humanoids, then it is better to wait until it is safe to go out. It's better, it's only about ten hours anyway, just enough to take a break in the shelter.
Although Lin Lin is still full of energy now, Lux and Wu Gu are already a little tired. Even if it is not the time of deep darkness, Lin Lin will still let them take a rest. Otherwise, these two people will probably be able to I fell asleep on the way afterwards.
So, Lin Lin walked out of the mecha's cockpit and put the mecha into the empty stacked bead ring that came with the random armor.
In fact, Lin Lin could have parked the mecha here, but for the sake of safety, Lin Lin believed that it was safest for the mecha to be by his side. After all, no one knew whether he would wake up again after falling asleep. , especially a place that will only exist for ten hours.
Maybe when you wake up, you will find yourself in the middle of a group of monkeys. A group of monkeys several meters tall are looking at you eagerly, with saliva hanging from the corners of their mouths because of the sight of food.
Just thinking about that scene is already terrifying, let alone experiencing it personally later.
…
Nine hours later, Lin Lin and the other three stood at the edge of the shelter, looking solemnly outside.
The huge humanoid creature was still standing outside the shelter. All the monkeys killed by Lin Lin and the others had been eaten cleanly by it, and not even the bones and residue were left. At this moment, the humanoid creature was Looking into the shelter with greedy eyes.
"It's still there." Lin Lin said solemnly. There were only a few minutes left before the shelter disappeared, but this humanoid creature had no intention of leaving.
"Are you saying that the monster is still outside?" Wu Gu looked at Lin Lin with a worried look. Before that, Lin Lin had told them the specific appearance of the monster, so he could probably guess it. How terrifying that humanoid creature was.
"Yes, I haven't left yet." Lin Lin nodded.
Time passed by minute by second, and the humanoid creature not only did not leave because the deep darkness was about to disappear, but instead approached the shelter step by step as time passed. Its eyes were full of greed, as if it was waiting on purpose. The shelter disappears.
"Let's go!" Lin Lin shouted. Judging from the current situation, the Cyclops probably wanted to wait for the shelter to disappear before rushing in for a buffet. Lin Lin did not want to become a dish in the hands of the Cyclops.
So, under the leadership of Lin Lin, Lux and Wu Gu came to the opposite direction from the Cyclops. As soon as the shelter disappeared, they would rush out immediately and would never miss this place.
They knew that if they ran a little slower later, they would most likely become food at the Cyclops buffet.
"Mr. Ziguang."
Not long after Lin Lin and the others arrived here, Lang Ya and his team members also came to the three of them and smiled at Lin Lin.
"You are here." Lin Lin nodded lightly. Langya and the others would follow. This was expected by Lin Lin. After all, he had told him about the monster before. Seeing that he was bringing Lux II If someone leaves and doesn't follow him, it will prove that he is a fool.
"We have to come. If we stay there, we will probably become the monster's rations the moment the shelter disappears, right?" Langya said with a bitter smile. Although he couldn't see the situation outside the shelter, in his heart I had a hunch that if I didn't follow Lin Lin and the others, my life would be in danger.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Lang Ya still led his team members to follow Lin Lin and the others. What he didn't know was what a right choice he made. Soon he would thank himself for what he is now. Allowing his team members to escape a fatal crisis.
"The right decision." Lin Lin chuckled, and then looked at the time. There were only twenty seconds left before the shelter disappeared.
At the same time, the excited roars of the monsters came from outside the shelter. Lin Lin turned his head and looked over and realized that at some point, the humanoid creature had arrived outside the shelter. Barrier looked inside.
Not only that, there were actually several smaller Cyclops beside this Cyclops.
This discovery made Lin Lin's pupils shrink. Just an hour ago, Lin Lin observed it once. There were obviously not so many Cyclops at that time, so why did so many Cyclops suddenly appear? Could it be?
Lin Lin thought of those monkeys. Since the appearance of the Cyclops, those monkeys seemed to have disappeared from the world, with no trace at all.
Some people died, but not completely...
