Chapter 180 Ecology in Fear

Under the blood-colored sky, a drizzle was falling.

On the gray ground, two creatures are slowly advancing.

"It's been... a long time."

"I didn't expect... it would take that long."

The pompom flew under a withered tree and landed on the ground.

The journey here has been going on for a long time... Initially, the creator thought that this place would not be too big, it thought that it was very close to the exit. ""

But in fact, this place is so big that now, I don't even know where it is...

The environment of this place is also quite strange, with barren land everywhere, the ground is like rotting mud, and there are many bones and the like mixed in.

In addition, it is the gray and cracked stone ground. Occasionally, one or two withered trees can be seen on these grounds. The sky is always red, and it is drizzling, not heavy. The fog has also been maintained, which is the overall environment here.

For the phantoms, this environment can make them terrified, and for the creator, this environment can make it irritable.

However, for Lin, the only thing that makes Lin feel strange about this environment is how can the virtual people who entered here have a way to live in such a place for so long?

"Looks like we're lost, fluff." The creator climbed under the tree, one of the few places that wouldn't get wet.

In this place, you will feel cold, hungry, and tired, and almost everything feels exactly the same as in reality. Living here is a very difficult thing.

If you die here. That is really dead.

certainly. For the creator, it's just a dead tentacle, but for the Voidlings or the brain spirits that enter here, they will really die.

That's why Brain Spirit wants to block this place and doesn't want to explore.

"Ah!" Suddenly, Pom Pom heard a scream, and in the quagmire ahead, a strange-looking creature crawled out...

There are many creatures here. These creatures are almost all extinct creatures in the virtual world, but they have one thing in common, which is to make the virtual people feel afraid...

For example, this is the case with the creature above.

It is called the "Drager" by the virtual people. It is a creature with long gray hair and lives in the swamp. It has six limbs and is similar in size to the virtual people.

And its face looks like a phantom with a split mouth. Every phantom will feel extreme fear when they see it. The most peculiar thing is that its cry is very similar to that of the phantom. It is said that the creature used this scream to disguise itself as a phantom who died in the swamp, and then dragged it into the swamp while the phantom approached.

But actually. The virtual people themselves live in the city and rarely go to the wild swamps. Its cry is just like it. It may be that a virtual people saw this kind of creature and came up with a story.

This is also the reason for the extinction of this species.

"We need to use it for food, fluff." The creator looked at the dragger who got out and said: "The hunger here is much faster than outside... I underestimated this place."

"yes."

Pom Pom answered simply.

The creatures here are all edible, although some are poisonous, but it seems useless to the creator and the pom-pom, but the difficulty of catching the creatures is another problem...

"Go!" The creator jumped suddenly, wrapped around the dragger's neck, and the pom-pom flew over immediately, piercing its head.

This kind of creature is relatively simple.

...after tens of seconds.

"This thing provides very little nutrients." The creator said to the pom-pom while eating the creature's flesh with the tips of the tentacles: "Fleece, now, we should find the Fool."

"Why did you find it?"

"Find it, we can look at its fear range. So we know how big this place is." The creator said: "The things here are formed according to the fear of the fool, but a fool does not fear too many things, in In their tiny brains, their fears are limited."

"Fluff, so I'm confused about this." The creator raised his tentacles and said, "The size of the world here has exceeded the range of one fool's fear. I suspect that this world may have been formed based on the fears of multiple fools... "

"Multiple?" Pom Pom asked, "Didn't you say there is only one?"

"I'm not very clear about the rules here, fluff, this is a world that will form its fear based on the first entrant, but if there is more than one initial entrant..."

"Hey hey hey hey..."

Just as the creator was speaking, a strange sound rang out.

I saw a group of black creatures flying in the sky. They had black wings, their bodies were hairless, and they made strange noises.

Lin knew that those were a group of creatures called 'night laughs'. They made a strange sound, which made the virtual people feel scared. Of course, the most frightening thing for the virtual people was their faces.

"Hey..." A night smile swooped down from the sky and landed next to the pom-pom and the corpse of the creature killed by the creator just now.

They are like scavenging flying creatures, Ye Xiao's face is very round, covered with a circle of barb-like serrations, no eyes or other organs can be seen at all, they use the serrations on their faces to scrape the meat off devour……

Because the appearance and sound are too terrifying, this kind of creature has been hunted and killed by the virtual people...

But now, as if they wanted to hunt down the creator, more night laughter fell next to the corpse. They not only liked to eat rotting meat, they also caught live things.

But they also have a certain intelligence, and they may have just seen the pom-pom and the creator hunt the dragger, so there hesitant to move forward.

"It should be gone, Fluff." Seeing more and more night laughter, the creator climbed down from the corpse and crawled into the distance.

Although it is the creator, it is only a tentacle with a severed section, and it is not capable of fighting against so many creatures.

Although Lin felt that Pom Pom could win, she didn't care so much and left this place with the creator.

Pom Pom glanced back, and after leaving, the group of night laughter immediately jumped on the corpse and devoured it frantically.

...

"How do I find those imaginary people?" While flying, the pom-pom asked the creator.

"I found a clue just now." After speaking, the creator spit out a piece from his tentacles and said, "Look."

This is... the bullet of the virtual people? The pom-pom grabbed the little thing the creator spat out, and found that it was an ancient type of warhead that the Voidlings had used in previous wars.

"The creature we caught just now was attacked," the creator said. "Based on its smell, we can find those fools... yes... they are nearby."

This warhead does have the smell of explosives. So, the virtual people here seem to be quite powerful. Can they make weapons in this environment?

Then be sure to check them out...

In this way, Lin and the creator changed their goals and moved forward on the road to find those 'The Fools'...

In the process of advancing, you can find many traces left by them. There are traces of fire in the tree holes under some dead trees, and footprints in some places, as well as the bones of hunted creatures, etc. .

In addition, Lin also saw many creatures, and these creatures... may be able to reproduce in the world of the virtual people.

According to various traces, Pom Pom and its creator have found a special place.

'boom! ’

Lightning flashed across the sky, and the creator and the pom-pom came to a huge building.

This building looks like a rotten wooden house, the wooden door at the entrance hangs staggeringly there, while the inside is pitch black, and nothing can be seen.

However, the smell of explosives can be smelled inside.

"They should hide here, fluff, and we should hide too."

The creator got into the entrance, and the pom-pom also changed color and flew in.

'boom! 'When the thunder and lightning lit up the sky again, Lin also saw clearly the structure of the house, the cracked floor, the walls full of cracks, and the furniture scattered all over the floor. It was obviously a very old vacant house. Everything here is rather old, to the phantoms.

And this house has a second floor...

Lin could hear that there was a voice from the second floor...

It seems that there are virtual people talking...

"How long are we going to stay?"

"Soon, we'll be able to find that thing, and we'll be able to get out of this place, out of the things that glow."

"We've gotten rid of them! But we're in another nightmare... wait, something's in."

"Is there? It's an illusion..."

"There is no illusion in this world!"

The creator and the pom-pom came to the top of the stairs, and there were a few phantoms sitting on the ground on the second floor, wearing what looked like 'raincoats' but with lots of rotting holes.

And they all have weapons in their hands, but it doesn't feel like they made it themselves.

"I feel... the fear of these fools." The creator leaned beside the pom-pom and said, "Their fear is quite huge, and they are the reason for the formation of this world."

"They're here!" Suddenly a phantom shouted, but instead of rushing towards this side, it opened a window and jumped from the window, and several other phantoms immediately followed it jumped down...

what are they doing? Pompom and the creator looked at the window, and found a huge black shadow in the misty fog that was raining outside...

"Follow them, fluff." The creator also jumped down: "I have found them, the edge of their fear." (To be continued...)
