Gu Lingxin looked at Su Heng suspiciously, this was different from last time!
Mr. Pei prepared the medicine and began to write the prescription. A woman in a goose-yellow dress walked out of the back hall holding a wooden tray, went straight to the square table made of red rosewood, and took a cup of hot tea on the tray. One was brought down and placed in front of them.
The woman was in her early twenties, with a delicate and beautiful face and cherry-colored lipstick.
But there was no expression on her face, and she didn't look at them. Her bright red mouth was tightly closed, and she returned directly after serving the tea.
"There are three new guests. Three more cups of tea." Mr. Pei added.
There was still no reply from the woman, but there was the sound of water being pressed from the old well, and it seemed that they were preparing to boil water to make new tea.
Gu Lingxin activated [Re-Engraving] and was secretly shocked - the three people who just came in at the door were all awakened ones!
[Awakening Ability: Barrier]
[Resist an attack]
【Levels of danger:? 】
[Awakening ability; increase]
【Enhance strength】
【Levels of danger:? 】
[Awakening Ability: Shadow]
[Hidden figure briefly]
【Levels of danger:? 】
They all have combat abilities... Gu Lingxin looked worried. There are seven awakened ones in the game, and they have to fight a boss? Gu Lingxin didn't dare to think about what kind of monster they would face.
The three people at the door didn't look like they had entered the game for the first time. There was no big panic on their faces. Especially when they heard that the task was to "kill the boss", they all breathed a sigh of relief.
No one touched the four cups of steaming tea.
Mr. Pei handed the prescribed medicine to Xiao Daotong, who thanked him and said to the seven players: "Thank you for coming with me."
The little Taoist boy led everyone out and said to himself: "Hello, brothers and sisters, my name is Xiangxiang. I have followed my master to practice Taoism since I was a child. Recently, there are strange animals in the village. Please be careful."
Alien beasts should refer to those infected in animal form.
However, the little Taoist boy didn't say anything else. Gu Ling couldn't help but ponder. There were fewer animals in the city, the majority of humanoid infected people, and the majority of poultry in the villages. Think about the alien beasts, that is, the majority of infected animals, this is normal. . But she didn't reveal a word about humans being infected.
Is everyone lucky enough not to become infected, or is there a hidden plot?
Gu Lingxin thought of this, and suddenly stopped and ran to a nearby village house and knocked on the door hard: "Is there anyone there?"
There was no movement inside the door.
Nian Nian turned around and said doubtfully: "Sister, there is no one here."
Gu Lingxin stepped back, "Really? I remember my grandma took me to play at Aunt Liu's house when I was a kid, right cousin?"
"You remembered it wrong." Su Heng smiled, "Why do I remember that Aunt Liu's house is in the south."
"Oh, I remembered wrongly."
The two acted out a scene and got a message: no one lives here.
Among the three awakened people who later joined the game, there was a tall woman named Lin Gui. She was the awakened person with the [Amplification] ability. It seemed that Gu Lingxin had discovered something, so she leaned over and asked softly: "Do you see any problem?"
As for why she was called "tall", Gu Lingxin herself was 1.77 meters tall, which made her a relatively tall girl. But when this woman stood aside, she turned out to be more than half a head taller than her.
Gu Lingxin quietly used [Insight] to take a look at the large metal box the woman was carrying. She had a faint smell of blood on her body. She might have been fighting the infected before entering the game. From time to time, the sound of metal colliding could be heard from the box. It should contain weapons, but Gu Lingxin couldn't guess what they were.
"Just checking to see if anyone is around." Gu Lingxin shook her head and replied.
"The girl from the village chief's family is getting married, and everyone is going to help." Thinking about it, a sentence suddenly came to mind.
Does this explain why there is no one here? But it’s not necessary... Isn’t the condition for clearing the level not to defeat the boss?
"Awakened ones who can create games may have improved abilities, so the games will also change." Messiah whispered.
oh! Mutated. Gu Lingxin understood it immediately.
Think about living in a dilapidated small Taoist temple. The wooden door in the main hall creaked loudly due to the cold wind. The statue that was originally placed here has long since collapsed, leaving only half of the stone covered with dust.
There were some white sails and Taoist talismans hanging on the beams. It should have been a ritual ceremony, but it was not recent, and some of the Taoist talismans had been blown down by the wind. Gu Lingxin looked at the patterns drawn with cinnabar on the Taoist Talisman. She had not studied these things before, so she didn't know what their function was.
On the far left side of the house, a gray-white curtain is lifted, and behind it is an old wooden staircase going down. There is a thick chain wrapped around the staircase. The wooden door was locked with three locks. It was pitch dark at the end of the stairs and nothing could be seen.
"Everyone, just send it here, thank you." Xiang Xiang opened the lock on the wooden door, left a word, and got into the stairwell without looking back.
"Boss, is he down there?" Gu Lingxin asked in a low voice.
Messiah thought for a moment and nodded.
There are no other levels, no mobs, just come and fight the boss?
I'm afraid it's not that simple...
The biggest possibility is that the boss is of a higher level than the will-o'-the-wisp, so there is no need for other levels to cause attrition to the players, and the big boss is released directly.
Gu Lingxin briefly estimated the fighting power of the seven people here. If there was a fight, only she, Lin Gui, and the man with the Chinese character face who had the [Shadow] ability. The awakening abilities of the three of them could play a role in the battle. In terms of substantive effect, more of Su Heng's combat power comes from the official powerful thermal weapons, but he did not bring a sniper... I hope he can take out two grenades from his pocket later to help...
As for the Messiah, Gu Lingxin has not intuitively seen how "strong" he is, but [Insight] does not seem to have the ability to directly harm the infected. I hope he has a pistol hidden in his trouser pocket...
Oh, his pants don't seem to have pockets.
"Can you go out after killing the infected people inside?" The man with glasses asked, staring at the bottomless passage. They and the other two got acquainted in the previous game. Not long after they cleared the level, they crashed into another game. Isn't this too unlucky?
"Then, let's go in?" Lin Gui took off the metal box she was carrying and held it in her hands. Her arms looked very strong. Gu Lingxin speculated that she should have been a fitness blogger or a boxing coach before. .
A few of them boldly went out to look for supplies after discovering that they had the ability to awaken. They wanted to stock up on supplies and then went home to stay there. They did not have thermal weapons in their hands. As a result, they entered two "games" in succession, and they really had no luck. explain.
Gu Lingxin could guess from their looks that the infected they had encountered before were ordinary infected people, not as perverted as the "will-o'-the-wisp". With their awakening ability, as long as they dealt with them carefully, there wouldn't be much of a problem.
But I'm afraid it won't be that simple this time. If it were just some ordinary infected people, she could burn them on fire, but Gu Lingxin had a vague feeling that the boss of this game must be more terrifying than the will-o'-the-wisp.
While several people were hesitating, Messiah had already opened the curtain and walked in.
Su Heng followed him, but kept a few steps away.
Several people followed in turn.
The stairs did not go straight down. It took about two minutes and turned around a few turns. Then I gradually saw a little light in front of me. At the end of the stairs is a huge basement, which is larger than the courtyards of the village households outside. It is surrounded by walls made of building materials that are obviously scraps, covered with moss and blood stains.
The ground was littered with mutilated corpses and bones of infected people.
It just matches the "exotic beasts" mentioned by Xiaodaotong. They are all domestic animals such as cattle and sheep that became infected. They don't seem to be very dangerous.
There were a few candles burning in the courtyard, and the warm yellow firelight dimly shone red all over the ground. The little Taoist boy fell into the pile of corpses. The large Taoist robe was even more dirty. The bandage on the arm that had just been bandaged was already hanging loosely. Her arm The wound was more serious than before, as if another piece of flesh had been torn off.
Not far away from her, a slender woman in white clothes sat on the ground with her back to everyone. She was surrounded by bones and infected heads, and several blood-stained talismans were scattered around her.
"Think about it..." The woman made a strange cry sadly.
The little Taoist boy endured the pain and got up. With red eyes, he said tremblingly to the people who had just come in: "Please leave this place."
Gu Lingxin used [Replicate] to glance at the woman's back, but found nothing.
Not an infected person?
She has no ability that can be used for [Reproduction] and can still talk. Isn’t she a boss?
But there were no other improvements to the rules, and no useful information was discovered along the way.
"I'm so hungry... Think about it..." The woman turned her face and said softly with one of her crimson lips that stretched from ear to ear.
She was wearing a very retro-style robe-like dress, which seemed to be a kind of Taoist robe. Several bright red lines spread down her fair neck and were buried in the collar of the dress. The jet-black gas, Wrapped around her.
This is obviously a characteristic of the infected person who is about to mutate.
Gu Lingxin couldn't figure it out. The infected people were still in the early stages of mutation, and they didn't seem to have any special abilities. It could be said that they were not dangerous at all.
"She would be very strong if she didn't become an infected person." Messiah coughed in her ear and reminded her, "She should have directly mutated, but she suppressed it with willpower."
"!?" Gu Lingxin's eyes widened. Is this okay?
I have been in the apocalypse for so long in my previous life, and I have never heard of anyone being able to survive the mutation through willpower alone.
"This should be some kind of Taoist secret knowledge." Messiah speculated.
Thinking of hearing the Messiah's words, he nodded with tears in his eyes: "This is my master. She has gone crazy, her Taoist heart is broken, and she often loses control. You should leave as soon as possible."
Dao heart broken? Gu Ling was unconvinced. That Kun Dao had a firm Taoist heart and solid cultivation, so that when the desires of the infected person poured into his body, he still insisted on not doing evil and harming others, but only got some mutated cattle and sheep to eat.
So, the magic circle above is used to prevent her from becoming infected?
"Leave, leave..." the woman mumbled, then screamed again.
It was obvious that her consciousness was being tortured.
"Kill her and we can 'clear the level'?" Lin Guiguang heard Messiah and Gu Lingxin talking and knew that they must be experienced awakeners, so he immediately hugged her.
Gu Lingxin nodded.
The little Taoist boy immediately stood up, dragged the exposed bones of his right arm, and shouted loudly: "Master has never harmed anyone! Why do you kill her!"
"If I don't kill her, she will kill you." Gu Lingxin pointed to the wound on her body that spanned her shoulder and upper arm and was deeply visible to the bone. "That piece of meat was torn off by your master and eaten. Bar."
Along the way, there was no movement in the village. It's hard to say whether the villagers went to the village chief's house, but they would never bring poultry and livestock with them to a wedding banquet. Farmers, every household doesn't have a few chickens, ducks, cows and sheep? The noise she had just made on the road was not small, but there was not even a barking sound in the whole village.
Looking at the scene here, if there is anything unclear, almost all the beast-shaped infected people in the village have been eaten by this Kun Dao.
However, it is hard to say whether what she ate was infected people or fresh and healthy livestock.
There is no raw meat to eat now. If the seven of them don't come, I'm afraid this little Taoist boy will become her master's meal tonight. After eating human flesh once, she truly had a broken heart and became an infected person.
"Think about it..." the woman called again.
The little Taoist boy ran forward and stood in front of the woman: "Master wants to eat, so I will..."
"Ah -" the woman let out a shrill scream, and invisible air waves spread out in all directions, lifting the little Taoist boy's body away and hitting the moss-covered wall heavily.
She fainted.
The woman looked at this scene and seemed to be stimulated, "I'm so hungry... I'm so hungry! Ah! Here comes the sword!!!" The woman's robe was raised, golden light bloomed beside her, and five lightsabers condensed behind her.
Is this Taoism? Not to mention that Gu Lingxin has seen so many strange abilities in this life, even in her previous life on the Internet where everyone boasted about her awakening ability, she had never heard of the ability to summon flying swords out of thin air.
The woman formed a seal with one hand, and immediately two lightsabers fired at Gu Lingxin, who was standing at the front.
She immediately threw two fireballs. The fireballs flew out to meet the flying swords, and were instantly pierced by the light. With two "pops", the two flying swords pierced her shoulders.
The lightsaber disappeared immediately after piercing the flesh, and the blood hole on the shoulder gurgled out with red blood.
The smell of blood suddenly spread throughout the sealed stone room.
The woman was stimulated, and the infected person's instinct was eroding her will, "No, don't hurt others." She immediately recited the Qingxin Jue word by word, but in the end she still couldn't survive the temptation of human blood.
"Eat, take a bite..." The woman's eyes were chaotic, the golden light of Taoism and the black energy that was about to mutate entangled her. Dozens of lightsabers condensed behind her, as well as several Taoism symbols painted with different patterns. .
So strong? The rest of the people had heavy expressions, especially the three later awakened ones. When they saw that Gu Lingxin could control the flames, they thought that the game was almost certain to be won, but they could not stop the two golden lightsabers at all. .
"Damn it!" I was just defending myself, but you planned to cut me into pieces! Gu Lingxin calmed down and mobilized more powerful power.
[Awakening Ability: Fire]
