Chapter 106
Chapter 106
Ming Shu only had 10 points, Shan Qi didn't have the slightest doubt, 10 points was a very normal statistic, and Ming Shu looked weak on the outside, he didn't seem like someone who could complete the task in a short time.
He nodded: "Everyone is far behind. The task is due tomorrow morning. Why don't we act together?"
Xia Zhu told everyone last night that the effect of doing tasks at night is better, but the rest of the teammates are not sure about this, and they don't want to wait, they have to prepare during the day.
The value of the npc's increase after being frightened is shared by all the players present. They underestimated the endurance of the townspeople before, and now that there is not much time left, the best way is to act together.
Moreover, there are no more than five people in the ready-made team, and it will be more troublesome to find other people.
Everyone disagreed with Shan Qi's proposal, and they discussed it and quickly divided the tasks.
Ming Shu and Xia Zhu were the two weakest ones, and they were dressed more "introverted". They didn't look scary enough, so the two of them were responsible for luring the townspeople to a remote place, and the rest were left to the three teammates.
The other three are dressed as a headless ghost, a skeleton ghost, and a chainsaw killer. From the outside, they are indeed more impactful.
Ming Shu also put on his own dark red robe and hood, but unfortunately in broad daylight, his attire has nothing to do with ghosts.
Xia Zhu snapped his fangs aside, confused: "I remember that I didn't seem to be glued too tightly, why can't I take it off..."
Yesterday, for the sake of convenience, he left it alone. When he went back at night, he found that he still couldn't take it off, and it hurt his teeth when he picked it hard.
He had no choice but to give up and eat and sleep with the fangs on his back, thinking that the glue would loosen a little after he slept.
As a result, I saw it this morning, not only did it not loosen, but it became firmer.
The more Xia Zhu thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and leaned close to Shan Qi: "Brother Shan, what did you mean by what you said last night?"
Shan Qi glanced at him and took out the chainsaw from a simple wooden box: "I'm just guessing."
He took the chainsaw in his hand, and Mingshu found some fresh blood on the blade of the chainsaw.
Shan Qi noticed his gaze and took the initiative to explain: "I killed a townsman yesterday."
He said that he was forced to do so. Others could complete the main quest, even if he got the supplies. Later, he asked another player who was also dressed as a Chainsaw Massacre to find out what the problem was.
The chainsaw must be stained with fresh blood to complete the task, which is the hidden condition of this dress.
Seeing that the time limit was approaching, Shan Qi had no choice but to stop a townsman near his home before dark.
He intended to hurt the other party, but when the chainsaw cut through the townsman's arm, the blade was stained with blood, and the townsman begged him for mercy in fear, an uncontrollable impulse rose in his heart, and he directly killed the townsman with the chainsaw. People hacked to death.
This move also caused Shan Qi to receive 15 points of fear.
After he killed the townspeople, he fled back to his residence, looking at the blood-stained chainsaw in a daze, and recalled the first night he got the chainsaw, the real killer who broke into the house and took the chainsaw away.
This feeling is very subtle, Shan Qi can't describe it, but he is sure that he must have been affected by the chainsaw at that time.
"Maybe I'm thinking too much," Shan Qi suddenly yanked the chainsaw, showing a sinister smile, "It's okay to kill all the townspeople, they are all very strange."
It's not uncommon to kill npcs in dungeons for missions, it's just a system data, not a real person.
But at the moment Shan Qi's state is really weird, Xia Zhu and Ming Shu looked at each other, then moved back quietly, away from Shan Qi.
The other two teammates didn't make a sound, they seemed to be frightened by Shan Qi, and put on their clothes silently.
Xia Zhu and Ming Shu were going outside to find a suitable townsman, they said goodbye first, Xia Zhu took Ming Shu and walked outside for a while, stopped and said anxiously: "Please help me to see if my teeth are Can't get it off?"
He showed as much of his upper row of teeth as possible, flanked by a pair of fangs that looked like they were born in nature.
Ming Shu looked at it carefully, his heart sank.
Xia Zhu's two teeth were glued together, but now he can't find the gap between the two teeth, no matter how you look at it, there is only one fang growing there.
Ming Shu's silence chilled Xia Zhu's heart. He put away his teeth and rubbed his face, feeling uneasy: "This tooth has merged with me? I won't really become a vampire, will I?"
He looked at Shan Qi's state, as if after getting the chainsaw, he really became a murderer.
Xia Zhu was terrified, and recalled if there was anything strange about him recently.
Mingshu said a few words of comfort: "I can't take off my tail anymore, let's take a step and watch."
On the bright side, if they really turned into monsters, then... would they be considered to have a skill?After all, townspeople are afraid of monsters.
And if there is a problem with supplies, all players will suffer, not just a few of them.
Xia Zhu sighed: "I hope there will be no more problems...By the way, has your hair grown?"
Even he could see it, Ming Shu touched his hair: "It should be one of the changes."
They are all slowly approaching the type of monster that the material belongs to, and I don't know how far they will end up.
The task still had to be done, and the two came to the streets where the various small shops were located, looking for the target.
Ming Shu was wearing a long robe, which was different from the outfits of the people around him, but the temperature right now was just right, plus he was pretty and delicate, he looked good in anything he wore, and didn't feel awkward.
The two walked around, and Ming Shu caught a glimpse of a familiar figure standing in the corner, looking at him silently.
Ming Shu's eyes lit up, and he whispered to Xia Zhu, "I'll go over there and have a look."
He looked around to make sure no one noticed him, and walked quickly in the direction of Sang Yin.
It was daytime now, and Sang Yin returned to the shell of the townspeople. He didn't wear a mask, and his handsome features stood out among the townspeople around him.
Ming Shu almost trotted over and threw himself into his arms: "You're here!"
Sang Yin hugged him, took his hand and looked around him: "Why are you wearing it again?"
Mingshu told him about forming a team to do the task, including what Xia Zhu and Xia Zhu were worried about just now, the abnormalities of the players, new plots and tasks.
"Become a monster?" Sang Yin pulled up Mingshu's hood, a few strands of long black hair were exposed from the edge of the hat, and a delicate little face looked indistinguishable from male and female.
He pinched Mingshu's cheek, bowed his head and kissed: "Little witch."
Ming Shu blushed, trying to put on a serious expression: "I'm talking about business."
"Don't worry," Sang Yin said sternly, "How far behind are you, let me help you?"
What he asked was the value required for Mingshu's task. It seems that this change is irreversible and unstoppable at present. We can only pay more attention to it and do the task that needs to be done first.
"The branch line is only 10 o'clock away," Mingshu replied. "For the new mission, we have to kidnap an NPC first, and we'll see when the time comes."
He hasn't told Sang Yin that there are three types of values, he can kidnap Sang Yin, but if the 60 in the new mission contains fear value, then... His mission must be a bit difficult, and Sang Yin cannot be taken by him. scare.
"It's only so close?" Sang Yin was slightly surprised, "When did you catch up with the progress?"
Ming Shu said honestly, "I got it from...you."
Sang Yin raised his eyebrows: "Me?"
Why doesn't he know?Ming Shu asked twice if he had any feelings about this wizard's attire, but Ming Shu didn't mention anything, he thought it was just a question, and there was no task progress.
"It's just..." Mingshu explained vaguely, saying that he wasn't sure what the value marked with an asterisk represented, anyway, it was an increase.
He faltered: "I think it may be... maybe..."
Ming Shu was embarrassed to say it, if he got it wrong, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing.
"What is it?" Sang Yin asked. He recalled every time he got along with Mingshu, especially last night, and guessed from his reaction.
When Mingshu asked him last night, he pinched the tip of Mingshu's tail, all he wanted was to hug and kiss him, take off his clothes and take him to bed.
This kind of value is rare in game dungeons, but as long as the task can be successfully completed, there is no need to care about the difference in the process.
There were not many people walking around, Xia Zhu consciously guarded not far away, Sang Yin led Ming Shu to a more remote corner, pressed him against the corner and kissed him, pulled away the outer robe and hem, and touched the skin on his waist .
"Is it up?" Sang Yin asked while kissing, hinting very clearly.
[Npc [townsman]'s [** value] increased by 2 points, players please make persistent efforts! 】
Ming Shu's hood slipped off, and he answered intermittently: "It's gone up..."
It's just that the rise is a bit small, and there was at least 5 o'clock last night, probably because it is still daytime.
The tail was also pinched by icy fingers, and the coolness came in, but Ming Shu was a little hot, and a little sweat broke out from his forehead.
"The little witch with a long tail," Sang Yin breathed heavily, and teased Ming Shu in a vicious way, "Who can it scare?"
Fear value is too difficult for Mingshu. He is beautiful, weak, and not aggressive. It is more appropriate to complete the task in this way, but the target must be him.
Ming Shu pushed him with a blushing face: "It won't go up now... let me go."
It's not good to continue during the day, the task is due tomorrow morning, and there is still time tonight.
"Let's go with Xia Zhu first, I'll come to you at night," Sang Yin let go of Ming Shu, and touched his hot face, "Do you like wizards or demons?"
He will go to Devil City in the afternoon to deal with the demons that escaped last night, and the rest will be much more convenient.
Ming Shu seriously thought about it, and buried his face in Sang Yin's arms: "I like wizards."
Xia Zhushou waited nearby for a long while, touching his teeth non-stop, until Mingshu finally came back, and Sang Yin had already left.
"How?" He asked, "He should be able to help you with the task? Try to scare him?"
Only then did Mingshu tell him that his side quests were almost done, but unfortunately his method... Xia Zhu and other players couldn't use it.
He spoke very euphemistically, it took Xia Zhu a long time to react, and his expression was delicate: "...outrageous."
He even suspected that the value marked with an asterisk was a system loophole specially prepared for Mingshu. Others might be able to use it, but he didn't dare to use it anyway. Could it be that he had to find a townsman or Do monsters fall in love?I'm afraid it's too long.
After going through two dungeons, Xia Zhu has long realized the gap between herself and Mingshu.
As for the true meaning of the value marked with an asterisk, they discussed to conceal it, otherwise it would be difficult to explain how it was discovered.
It was almost noon, and the two of them searched around again. They fell in love with a townsman who was alone, and tricked him to the agreed place.
The three teammates had already stood in place, and Shan Qi held a chainsaw in his hand and pressed forward step by step. There was also a headless ghost covered in a white sheet and a skeleton monster with a huge head beside him.
The townsman who was tricked was a woman in her 30s, with a thin build and curly hair tied back.
She stood there without moving, and looked at the three of them expressionlessly, showing strange eyes.
"It's not Halloween yet." The woman glanced at them one by one, "With all due respect, it doesn't look like it."
Shan Qi was holding the chainsaw, enraged by her words, his face slightly ferocious: "Catch her!"
Xia Zhu realized something was wrong, and tried to stop: "Wait, let's try someone else..."
Shan Qi didn't listen at all, and ordered the other two teammates to hold the woman down, tied their hands with the prepared rope and threw them in the corner.
The high-speed chainsaw approached the woman's cheek, even so, she was not afraid and looked at Shan Qi calmly.
Shan Qi still had a sliver of reason, and stopped before the blade was about to cut off.
Xia Zhu immediately stepped forward to untie the woman's rope, apologized to her, and told her to leave quickly.
The woman turned her wrist, got up and left.
The remaining five people stayed where they were, and the teammate dressed as a headless ghost tore off the sheet: "Why is she so courageous..."
Just now the chainsaw was just a little bit away from the woman's face, and he was terrified looking at it.
"No, it's not that she is brave." Shan Qi shook his head, and looked at Xia Zhu: "You said before that the best effect is to do tasks at night?" Xia Zhu had already mentioned it to several teammates, and they thought that the time spent during the day should not be wasted. time, and the risk is too great at night.
Combined with the fact that their first attempt to scare a townsman failed, if Shan Qi couldn't react, he would be too slow.
The values he swiped yesterday, recalled now, were indeed raised when it was getting dark.
The townspeople here really have problems. They are different from ordinary people's tolerance, so players can only do tasks at night.
At night, there will be blood monsters, and other unknown creatures may appear.
Everyone's task values are still far behind, so we must find a way to give it a try.
So the whole afternoon was almost wasted, and the five of them found a place with the most suitable distance to ensure that everyone could go back in time before dark.
They also bought some self-defense weapons and tools from the store to deal with emergencies.
At about six o'clock in the afternoon, two townspeople were blocked by five people in a dead end.
It was still dark, and the townspeople were not afraid. One even looked at Shan Qi's chainsaw curiously, asking him to give it to him to play with.
There were still bloodstains from last night on the chainsaw. As night fell, Shan Qi gradually became restless. The townspeople in front of him didn't take him seriously, which seemed to him a provocation and an insult.
He tried his best to endure, and looked up at the sky: "Wait a little longer."
Time passed by, and the townspeople finally panicked.
"It's getting dark, aren't you going back?" one of the townspeople said anxiously, "The bell is about to ring."
[Npc [Town Citizen]'s [Fear Value] increases by 2 points, players please continue to work hard! 】
[Npc [Town Citizen]'s [Fear Value] increases by 2 points, players please continue to work hard! 】
The fear values of the two townspeople rose, and all five people present received a system notification.
Shan Qi sneered: "Now you know you are afraid?"
He yanked the chainsaw, and because of the presence of other teammates, he could still restrain the urge to attack the townspeople.
Ming Shu and Xia Zhu stood outside, and not long after, they received another notification from the system.
A total of 10 points has been raised, but it is not enough, they must complete the task tonight.
There was other movement not far away, Xia Zhu turned her head to look, and said in a low voice: "There are others too."
It's another wave of unfamiliar players. They must have discovered the pattern. If there is no accident, most of the players will go out at night tonight.
According to what Sang Yin said before, the number of blood monsters depends on the number of people outside the house...
Xia Zhu quietly tugged at Mingshu's sleeve: "You go back first?"
Mingshu's side mission has been completed, he doesn't need to stay here any longer.
But the other teammates didn't know, so they had to find another excuse.
The two were whispering in the back, and suddenly heard Shan Qi's voice: "What are you doing?"
Mingshu raised his head, and Shan Qizheng looked sideways with suspicious eyes.
The chainsaw was still ringing, and the fear value of the townspeople did not rise for a long time. Seeing that it was getting dark, Shan Qi became more and more irritable.
"We are teammates, why can't we discuss it together?" He turned around and pointed the chainsaw in his hand towards his teammates, "Or do you think I can't do it and want to do it yourself?"
Of the five people in the team, Shan Qi had indeed played the greatest role in intimidation. Now the progress of the task was slow, and his irritability and various inexplicable emotions made him suspicious, and his sanity was also being lost bit by bit.
Xia Zhu secretly thought it was bad, and backed away calmly: "Brother Shan, don't think too much, we didn't mean that."
Before he knew it, the bell had already rang twice, and the sky began to darken.
The two townspeople were still blocked in the alley, seeing Shan Qi diverting their attention, they quietly moved towards the exit, hoping to take the opportunity to escape.
At this moment, the system prompt sounded.
[Npc [Town Citizen]'s [Fear Value] increases by 15 points, players please continue to work hard! 】
[Npc [Town Citizen]'s [Fear Value] increases by 15 points, players please continue to work hard! 】
It suddenly increased by 15, and the total of the two townspeople is 30. Adding the previous 14 points, the task value of five people in the team is enough.
The townspeople looked terrified and shivered against the wall, but their eyes turned to another place behind them. The fear value did not come from Shan Qi or anyone in the team.
The sound of the system prompt also made Shan Qi recover a little bit of reason. He glanced at Ming Shu and Xia Zhu, and stared behind them: "Who are you?"
Ming Shu turned around and saw a man standing not far away.
He was dressed in pitch-black clothes, but it was not a wizard's robe, and it was different from the residents of the town. It was more like an attire that had been worn for some years. The button of the coat was tied to the top, with a mysterious and luxurious temperament.
He stood under the streetlight, his face covered by the light was a little pale, and he was looking at them quietly.
To be precise, he was looking at Mingshu, with unclear eyes lingering on him.
Ming Shu and Xia Zhu tensed up at the same time, because Ming Shu saw the man's face.
He looks exactly the same as the wizard, and should be one of Sang Yin's splits.
Xia Zhu faintly felt the dangerous aura emanating from the same kind, wait... the same kind?He is obviously human...
He suppressed the fear in his heart and the urge to escape, and said several times silently that this appearance must also be Sangyin, and with Mingshu around, he would definitely not hurt them, to give himself courage.
The two townspeople were so frightened that their legs limp, and they didn't even have the courage to speak.
The man didn't speak, Shan Qi asked vigilantly, "Is it a player?"
He always felt a little familiar with this face, but he couldn't remember where he saw it...
Xia Zhu promptly urged: "Don't worry about it, let's go back quickly."
The task has been completed, and there is no need to stay any longer. The other nearby teams don't know how it is progressing. I hope they will also go well.
Shan Qi took one last look at the man under the streetlight, confirmed that the man had no intention of approaching, put away the chainsaw: "Let's go."
The five people live in different directions, but they have to leave this block together first. Xia Zhu bought a watch from a shop during the day, and he glanced at the time: "It's still too late!"
The blood monster appeared before the fourth bell, they just need to rush back now...
Shan Qi at the front stopped suddenly, gripping the chainsaw tightly in his hand.
The guide stood in the middle of the street, his eyes were cold: "You are too presumptuous."
Shan Qi's patience is limited: "Get out of here!"
His previously suppressed emotions surged up again, and he was too lazy to talk to the guide, so he rang the chainsaw and swung it up.
The guide didn't hide at all, he let the chainsaw penetrate his neck, blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground without breath.
Several people were frightened by Shan Qi's actions, but they didn't care about that much at the moment, and they would kill them if they killed them.
Ming Shu adjusted his breathing, turned his head around the body of the leader.
After several people fled the vicinity, the guide on the ground stood up.
He took out a kerchief and wiped his neck, and the wound healed quickly, leaving no trace.
The blood on the ground was still there, but the guide had returned to normal. He twitched the tip of his nose and sniffed the air, and the smell of blood spread all the way.
The five walked together for a certain distance, and at a certain intersection they drove back separately.
Ming Shu walked alone on the empty street, the street lights illuminated the road ahead, but he still felt a gloomy chill.
All the houses passing by were lit, as if there were many prying eyes cast on him, which made him inexplicably nervous to the extreme.
Around the corner of the street, a familiar figure appeared on the side of the road.
It's a wizard, here comes Sang Yin.
Ming Shu felt relieved, and immediately ran towards him.
Sang Yin opened his arms to catch him, and stroked his back comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here... I'm always here."
As early as the first ring of the bell, he manipulated the wizard's body to come to Mingshu's side, but he didn't find a chance to show up, and kept hiding in the dark to protect him.
Ming Shu buried her face in Sang Yin's arms, and hugged his waist tightly: "Well... let's go back."
Sang Yin said "hmm" and looked into the distance.
There was another person there... and probably not a person.
He also followed Mingshu all the time, keeping a distance not too close or far from him. Mingshu didn't find him, but he couldn't hide it from Sang Yin.
Sang Yin hugged Ming Shu and said a few words of comfort, then lowered his head and kissed his cheek and lips. Under the streetlight, they could clearly see all their actions.
Ming Shu raised her face obediently, and was led back by Sang Yin.
They delayed for a while, and before arriving at the residence, they saw a few blood monsters wandering around.
But the blood monster didn't dare to get close to Sang Yin, who was a wizard, and kept wandering in the distance with a low growl, watching them return to the house unwillingly, closing the door tightly to isolate everything.
They refused to leave until they sensed another equally dangerous breath approaching, then retreated whimpering, turned and fled, looking for prey elsewhere.
The lights in the house were turned on, and Ming Shu's figure appeared by the window, and he drew the curtains of the living room.
He didn't see a person standing across the street, it was the man he had seen not long ago.
The street lights on the side flickered, and several huge bats flew by and landed on the branches.
They dare not get too close to men, they are blood-sucking nocturnal creatures, both fearful and uncontrollably want to submit.
The man spotted the bat, his eyes flashed with disgust and disgust, and he raised his fingertips slightly.
The bats that landed on the branches immediately burst into blue flames, screaming and turning into ashes.
The curtains have been drawn, Ming Shu disappeared by the window, he can't be seen at all, and he doesn't know what he is doing now.
The man stayed for a long time, until the light in the living room was turned off, and then disappeared in place without a sound.
