Chapter 45: Hunting game
Chapter 45: Hunting game
The sky is completely dark.
Wuji Gu is walking alone in the woods, looking no different from before, but if you look closely, you can see that he has all sorts of strange things on him.
Yes, this is the prop that Wuji Gu kindly asked other players for help, and then they offered to lend it to him.
The other players actually had mixed emotions, remembering how they had been frightened by the ghosts they had driven when they faced Wuji Gu, but now, all of their lives were riding on Wuji Gu alone.
Even if Wuji Gu is more powerful, it is impossible to dislike this boss ah! In this case, it is expected to die in a single shot.
They have changed their mindset dramatically over time, and even their own props, which they had never left their bodies, are voluntarily lent to Wuji Gu. After all, they can only leave here if Wuji Gu stays alive, otherwise people are dead and what use are the props.
It is also thanks to the previous Wuji Gu calculations, these people were too quickly hit, many of them are not ready to use their own props, otherwise it is very likely that the cooldown time has not yet arrived ......
So Wuji Gu is now carrying the hopes of all the players on his back.
The warning shot came from far away, and he knew it was the announcement that the hunt had begun and that the island's owner had begun to move.
"It seems that whether I can complete the hidden mission depends on now." Wuji Gu took a deep breath and unfolded the map in front of him. He already had a plan, now it was just a matter of reconfirming his route of departure.
After all, this copy of the boss is obviously more difficult to deal with than the other players combined, even if he changed into a new equipment, but also can not close the gap between the strength of the two.
Not to mention ......
Wuji Gu always felt, from the very beginning, a bad feeling sweeping over him, as if it was the same feeling he had when he met the hounds in the cabin.
Surely this boss can't come out to him single-handedly!
"Looks like this is where I'm going." Wuji Gu quickly determined his destination.
At this point, behind him has come a burst of cold air, Wuji Gu turned his head to look, he saw the moonlight fell on the canopy of the shadow began to deform up, faintly revealing the image of the monster, even if the body has not yet appeared, the monster's roar has been as if in the ears of the general.
There is even more than one to appear, and their shadows have completely blocked Wuji Gu's path.
"It seems my guess was right. After all, it's not unusual to bring hounds on a hunt ...... Maybe that's where this monster's name comes from?"
Wuji Gu at this time is still full of calm look, the next instant fierce will rush towards the front.
The moment his foot stepped on the shadow, the claws of the monster on the ground were going to grab his ankle directly, Wuji Gu ring in his hand was a flash, an image like an angel's white shadow emerged abruptly.
A warm feeling enveloped Wuji Gu's body, and the shadows of the monsters around him were stagnant, and taking advantage of this opportunity, he had rushed out of the heavy siege.
......
At this time at the other players, it is not known what kind of mentality the owner of the island is holding, it is surprising that here are arranged live screen, can let these people watch probably what happened.
Of course, this is all they can do. All those who presume to leave will be killed by the outside attendants the moment they step out of the circled area.
" Wuji Gu! You must succeed in escaping!"
"I've persevered before, so I'm sure I can do it this time too!"
Players were staring nervously at the screen, and voices of relief were heard as they saw Wuji Gu use a prop to get out of the situation at hand. There was even a man who proudly said, "That's my prop, it's really something."
Perhaps these dozen people have never been so consistent in their lives as they are now in their mental activities ......
But then, the picture did not switch, in Wuji Gu left shortly after the ground in the shadow has crawled out of several hideous face body tall monsters.
The crowd clearly heard the sound of footsteps ringing next to their ears, which was the sound accompanying the projection. But because the light is too dim and the angle problem, they can not see the other party's appearance, can only see that it is probably a young man's appearance.
The surrounding monsters named hounds are at this time become docile, their original only instinct to kill the eyes are actually tinted with fear.
Even this emotion, are infected with people outside the projection, they can clearly feel a kind of fear from the heart ...... if in fact hit this villainous boss on the island, they may lose all will.
"What's going on, even through the screen, can it already affect our spirit?"
"This must be the owner of the island." Yuanzhou Lu looked fixedly at the screen, his expression brought a few moments of gravity, "I didn't expect him to come so quickly ......"
At this rate, we'll definitely be facing Wuji Gu soon!
......
Wuji Gu ran through the woods at a fast pace.
In this a dense fog, surrounded by countless obstacles in the woods, or the darkness of the night without seeing your fingers, it is impossible for a normal person to have such a speed, not walking stumbling on the good.
What makes Wuji Gu run so fast is the glasses he wears on his face, a prop lent to him by a player, which clearly detects the surrounding terrain and, combined with the map Wuji Gu carries in his hand, allows him to escape as fast as possible.
But even if he ran faster, people are, after all, no match for certain existences.
In a short time, there have been howls behind them, and even the ground is vaguely vibrating.
Hearing the movement coming from behind him, Wuji Gu looked even more grave, thinking in his heart, "The island master has really come, after all, he is a Ghost King level boss, now it must be a release, otherwise he would have appeared directly in front of me and I would have died."
At this point, an extremely strong sense of crisis suddenly rushed to Wuji Gu heart, follow the instinct is the best thing Wuji Gu do, he did not want to think directly towards the side of the leaves lunged over.
In the next instant, a sharp arrow abruptly brushed past where he was originally located, cut through Wuji Gu still too late to dodge the arm, and violently stabbed the trunk of the tree in front of him, the tree because of the force brought by this arrow are fierce shaking up.
"You will definitely die if you are stabbed."
Wuji Gu covered the burning wounds, his heart has come to this conclusion.
Then, he was trying to get up when a grim-faced corpse appeared in front of him and was reaching out to grab Wuji Gu's ankle with a deadly grip, a tremendous force that no normal person could resist.
"Don't, don't even think about leaving ......"
A hoarse and spiteful voice came from the corpse's mouth.
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot, there are still a lot of ghosts in these woods."
............
......
The screen is now following the hound's point of view flying forward and changing.
They occasionally let out a heart-stopping growl, and their sense of smell is extremely sensitive, and they don't need to hesitate to rampage through the woods.
Perhaps because of their own existence special, it is actually able to directly penetrate the trees ...... No, to be precise, it is like walking through the shadow of the trees in general.
The most appeared along the way is the sudden emergence of ghosts, but these ghosts do not even last three seconds, the monsters directly tore open, swallowed into the belly.
These ghosts that other players are too scared to face are now so unbearable.
The crowd has held its breath, they have never encountered such a monster before, and now the thought of such a monster actually going after Wuji Gu, can't help but pinch a cold sweat for Wuji Gu.
The island master's attitude, however, was idle, as if he wasn't serious at all, but the few arrows he shot at random were enough to embolden all players.
This is much scarier than watching any horror movie! After all, if something happens to Wuji Gu, they'll be dead soon!
But even if they are usually very powerful, now they are like ordinary people, except for praying for Wuji Gu in their hearts, nothing else can be done.
It is simply fearful of what comes, in the sight of the crowd, the back of Wuji Gu steeply appeared on the screen.
Such a close distance simply allows the hounds to pounce directly on him can be killed.
But the owner of the island is not even doing it now, the surrounding hounds have pounced, surrounded, Wuji Gu has been trapped in the middle, even if he wants to escape is difficult to do.
"It's over, it's actually all caught up already!"
"Couldn't we have held out a little longer ...... hey, how could fruitful people deal with such a copy boss."
"I can't even look at it anymore!"
" Wuji Gu ......" Yuanzhou Lu looked fixedly at the back on the screen, with a worried face, then but abruptly found a few points wrong, the eyes is a bright.
"What a disappointment to me." The icy voice of the island master rang out, indifferent to the extreme, as if speaking to a corpse, "To be caught up so easily, as my chosen prey is really too out of character."
The Wuji Gu in front of him showed a horrified look on his face and ran several steps forward with trepidation, stumbling to the ground in fear at the sight of the monster, and his body kept shaking, so scared that he could not actually spit out a word.
Such an image could not help but make the crowd watching the scene feel too bad. Those who were arrested by Wuji Gu after just one look, even more doubts in their minds about life.
But all the people who have spent time with Wuji Gu, when they see such a picture, they feel very unusual ...... What happened, Wuji Gu is such a person? The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you're doing.
It is said that the boss of this copy is so terrifying that a single glance will scare Wuji Gu, who had been calm and self-possessed before, to paralyze.
When the island owner saw such a Wuji Gu, he looked even colder.
This is the first time he saw this human with his own eyes, and he didn't expect it to be such a disappointment, "Can't even stand up? To actually be afraid to such an extent is ridiculous ...... It was my mistake to choose a waste like you as my prey, killing such a prey is simply an insult to me."
The island master put down his bow and arrow in his hand, and was actually uninterested in even doing it himself.
The surrounding hounds were excited to see this scene, and they came forward and surrounded Wuji Gu. They had been salivating over the living man for a long time, and finally the fastest one opened its mouth and bit Wuji Gu.
Under such a force, no matter what kind of person, there is only the end of being bitten into two.
The island master had turned around, and he simply wasn't the least bit interested in how such a loser was killed.
But in the next instant, he suddenly frowned and turned his head to look over again, "No."
The crowd's eyes widened in consternation at the sight of the image on the screen.
The hound's mouth was biting, surprisingly, not Wuji Gu, but a decomposed corpse, which was struggling continuously, even though it was dead, the crowd could still clearly feel the sense of panic coming from it.
And the hound felt as if he had bitten into some scrap and flung it straight to the ground.
"What the hell is going on here?"
"It's a prop." A man spoke in a low voice, "Probably a prop I lent him, able to create an illusion of himself, but because there is no physical relationship is easy to be poked ......"
"I didn't expect Wuji Gu to forcefully disguise this ghost as himself, so naturally it's even harder to identify it!"
"I think he should also use the props I gave to hide the breath on this ghost ...... so even those hounds didn't notice the difference at all."
The crowd spoke slowly, the color of hope already burning in their eyes.
If before they lent Wuji Gu props reluctantly, but now, they feel that they made the right decision! If it was this man, they might really be able to survive the hunt!
Unknowingly, the mindset of these people who originally hated Wuji Gu to kill them has shifted drastically.
......
"Surprisingly, it's not him." The island master's voice, however, was not angry, but with a few indefinable meanings of excitement in it, "Concealing the hounds from the world, is to apply his own blood on this corpse? What a clever man."
His ice-blue eyes looked into the darkness around him, as if he was gazing at Wuji Gu, who no longer knew where he was.
"I apologize for what I said before." The island master spoke lowly: "You are not a waste at all, but the most perfect prey I have waited for all these years!"
"In that case, it seems that I should not continue to let go of the water either. It's also disrespectful to the prey."
......
Wuji Gu is staying by a rocky outcrop, catching his breath as the lush grass around him obscures his form.
Even he, after such an intense escape, at this point there is a feeling of starting to get tired.
What's more, Wuji Gu's arm injury is still aggravated, even if the use of props to heal the effect of little, but a few moments of work has made him even the slightest strength can not use.
"There must be something wrong with the top of that arrow. I don't know how long that corpse can be delayed." Wuji Gu pondered, "But by its strength, I guess it didn't take long to be exposed."
"Although I've been very lackadaisical about setting fires while running away, it probably won't affect these hounds for long."
Almost so thought the next instant, the shadows of the surrounding trees have begun to change up, the fog steeply appeared in the hounds.
"It arrived really fast." Wuji Gu covered the wound on his arm and looked fixedly in front of him.
The next instant, footsteps slowly sounded, a man in a black cloak appeared in front of his eyes, the other side of the face completely hidden in the darkness to see indistinguishable.
"Master of the island, should I call you that?"
Wuji Gu opened his mouth and said.
"Of course it's no problem." The voice of the island master rang out, he smiled and spoke, "It really surprised me to be able to fool me, you are already the best prey I have ever seen. But even so ...... prey is prey, now is the time for you to fulfill your duty."
"I don't have a problem with that." Wuji Gu fixedly looked at the other party, "But is it too unpleasant to end this hunt so easily?"
"Oh?" The island master didn't seem to have any immediate intention of making a move against Wuji Gu either, but looked at him with raised eyebrows, "So what do you have in mind."
"I want to have a match with you, how about it?" Wuji Gu took out his chopper and looked fixedly at the other party without the slightest hint of fear on his face, "I don't think you'll back down from that, will you? After all, how can the master of the island be afraid of a prey?"
The crowd in front of the screen has been stunned.
They simply can not imagine Wuji Gu at this time in the end how to have the courage to provoke the villain boss, but also to maintain such a calm look, he is not afraid of provoking the other side directly killed?
At this point they even forgot to spit on the kitchen knife in Wuji Gu's hand that was used as a weapon.
Where they did not notice, the waiter was also looking fixedly at the screen with a slight frown.
"Can you really do it ......," he muttered.
......
"What an interesting proposal." The island master then nodded at his words, "Not a bad idea. Although, this may make your death more painful, but since it is the request of my most satisfied prey, I will not refuse it."
At the end of the sentence, he threw the bow and arrow in his hand heavily to the side and took out a dagger from his waist that was as sharp as it could be.
"But rest assured, although I will kill you here, I will keep your soul." He slowly said, with what seemed to be a few intimacies in his tone, "Like this kind of hunt, we can have countless more opportunities."
The crowd outside the screen heard the island owner's words were creeped out. This kind of hunting even after the death of a person continues until the other party is bored, it is better to just die!
Wuji Gu but not the slightest hesitation, even as if tired of living up to want to be killed, not even a little idea of delaying time, "Do it."
With the words, he ran quickly in the direction of the owner of the island.
The crowd outside the screen are holding their breath, although they feel Wuji Gu should not be powerful enough to fight with the villainous boss of the technology, but who knows what the real situation will be ...... after all Wuji Gu always let people unexpected, even if his arm is now seriously injured.
Maybe this time also can still ......
Then they saw Wuji Gu with a dish of a more than fighting skills against the island master, almost a moment's work was restrained by the other side can not move, the hands of the kitchen knife also fell to the ground.
Crowd: "......"
The island master looked at Wuji Gu, his eyes narrowed slightly, "It seems that this proposal of yours is desperate to come up with, although it is interesting, but it does not bring any surprise at all."
Although the end of this fight is a bit boring, but by the surprise brought to him before, he will also keep the soul of the opponent.
"After all, I'm just an actor, so it would be too much to ask me to fight someone." Wuji Gu sighed, but changed his tone, "But the good thing is, the plan is still completed."
So saying, he ignored the sharp object against his chest, reached out and held the other side directly, and the sharp object immediately pierced into the flesh of blood.
The island owners were not expecting Wuji Gu to behave in such a way, and their movements were all over the place.
The distance between the two people thus became extremely ambiguous, Wuji Gu directly closed his eyes and rested his forehead against the other party's chest, directly using the purification technique.
"Let's see, what are your grievances ......"
......
What Wuji Gu really wants to do is not just survive until dawn, but what he has in mind is how to purify the bosses in this copy.
After all, his mission calls for liberating the island, not surviving until dawn.
It would be very disturbing for Wuji Gu if the task could not be completed.
Wuji Gu guessed that this villain boss should be the strength of the primary ghost king level, that is, the first copy of the Liege boss, want to forcibly purify it, according to his strength is impossible to succeed!
If he could get close to the other party, he could use the purification technique to figure out the other party's resentment. Then he can start from there. Although the chances of success are not great, there is still a glimmer of hope, so he will not give up.
The good thing is that Wuji Gu also borrowed a prop from the hands of others, that is a talisman that can greatly improve the chances of success of the ability by blood, if so even the junior ghost king should also be okay!
Of course, such behavior is also extremely dangerous, the slightest inadvertence will die, after all, is so close contact with the evil spirits.
But Wuji Gu was never afraid of such things, after all, it was too everyday for him, and dealing with ghosts was as easy as eating and drinking water.
Wuji Gu is more afraid of the kind of ghosts that have some other aspect of feelings for him ...... which makes people completely overwhelmed.
Because of this, Wuji Gu's original goal was to trick the island owner into getting up close and personal with him, while using a purification technique on him.
All that was done before was just to let the other side let down their guard, so that the owner of the island mistakenly thought that he was escaping from the failure to make this move. After all, it is too abnormal to come up to close contact with the other side.
When the waiter gave him the tray, he slipped him a note that probably indicated certain personality tendencies of the island's owner, saying that the more threatened he was, the more excited he felt, which led Wuji Gu to come up with the current method.
Although the encounter with a corpse at the beginning was unexpected ...... otherwise Wuji Gu might have collided with the island owner over in the woods.
But in the end things went very well, and even the owner of this island also seems to have some good feelings for him, but of course the tendency to express this good feeling does not seem to be very friendly ......
Wuji Gu's eyes went black abruptly after he used the purification technique on the island master.
When it lights up again, Wuji Gu sees it, the memory of the owner of the island.
