Chapter 482 The Invisible Truth
Li Nuo opened the door. As the smell of the slaughterhouse came out, the bright light hit his face. Shao Hong stood at the door with the goods.
"Quite fast."
He went over to take stock of the goods.
A plastic box with some herbs and animal livers inside.
The people in Cairo didn't know what alchemy materials were, but the players who entrusted them did. They brought a bunch of stuff bought in the store, and Li Nuo was quite satisfied.
"Li, Li Nuo?"
Shao Hong called him tentatively. She was still a little afraid of Li Nuo and was afraid of being eaten.
Li Nuo looked at her with wide eyes: "Well, thank you."
Shao Hong said: "Johnathan asked me to tell you that they discovered something while patrolling the streets..."
Li Nuo: "The vampire's aura disappeared."
"Um……"
"It doesn't matter."
Li Nuo's gentleness was unexpected, even though the warehouse behind him was bloody.
"What are you going to do?" Shao Hong asked. She was very curious and timid.
Li Nuo asked Cuihua to help transport the boxes to the warehouse, and then scratched his messy hair.
"Decoctions, magic potions, or ordinary medicines, herbs and liver can be ignited and processed to make a series of alchemical bombs. I don't have anything now, so I have to make some preliminary preparations for myself."
"Want to start a fight?"
"It's impossible not to fight, right?"
Seeing that Shao Hong was timid, Li Nuo turned around and snapped his fingers: "Take out the big cup on my table!"
"Here it comes~!"
Lilo Liluo ran out of the room in a small jump and threw the iron thermos cup in his hand towards Shao Hong.
The glass suddenly accelerated when it was half empty, and Shao Hong's pupils tightened. She felt like she was going to die.
Li Nuo suddenly stretched out his hand to catch the bottle, and the huge penetrating force took him flying, crashing into the iron box in the distance with a bang...
Lilo Liluo's eyes widened: "Oops..."
Cuihua floated out of the warehouse like a will-o'-the-wisp, and said with empty eyes, "You're done, he holds a grudge."
"Ah——!" Lilo Liluo turned around and ran away: "Ah——! I was wrong! Being strong was not my original intention!"
Instead of running toward the warehouse, it ran toward the avenue.
Li Nuo climbed out of the pile of tin boxes.
"Fortunately, the material in this world is not that hard..."
He got up, wiped away the nosebleed, and thought to himself, fortunately, the one he threw just now was not [Nokia].
Li Nuo raised his eyes and threw the thermos cup in his hand to Shao Hong, who was still in shock.
【Breath Potion】
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Effect: After drinking it, a circular aura field with a radius of fifty meters will be released. Within this aura field, your sense of existence will be slightly weakened]
[Brief description: Bathhouse peeping artifact]
Shao Hong was a little surprised: "This..."
Li Nuo blew the blood from his nose: "You are very curious and cannot be beaten, so it is easy for you to seek death. This thing is only so effective. If you use it well, you can extend your life."
In fact, Li Nuo made it specially for Shao Hong.
Now he has no torture tools in his hand, his teammates are not around, and he lacks equipment and skills. He is only one bucket of instant noodles away from being a useless person. There is no doubt about the importance of temporary teammates, especially Shao Hong's value.
In intelligence warfare, players like Shao Hong can sometimes influence the situation of the battle.
"So please, three of you, protect her."
Li Nuo turned around and looked at the grass not far away.
Behind the grass, Hodum, Sancho and Dashu, who were responsible for transporting the goods, trembled.
The three guys stood up in unison and stopped hiding.
In Li Nuo's eyes, the three of them looked as if they would come over and dismember him in the next second.
"Um... let me ask, are the three of you also involved?"
You can tell that these three guys are players by their appearance and demeanor.
He never expected that the person transporting the goods would be a player.
"That's not true." The leader, Hodum, explained: "The three of us have already accepted an order to be on this planet, so... well, we can't escape no matter what."
Li Nuo goes straight to the point without talking nonsense.
"Do you have any human resources?"
"Uh... no, although we play as interstellar hunters, we are kind of... mercenaries."
"Is there any information about the script?"
"I just came here and I don't know anything yet." Hodum paused and explained: "Well... it's not that the three of us can't fight, but our level is just as different as yours..."
In the next five minutes, Hodum and the others introduced their abilities.
Since there is no equipment and only skills, it is easy to say.
Hodum plays illusion and is also a player who is good at exploration.
Sancho and Dashu are both melee players who rely more on skills. Equipment is not necessary for them.
In order to show respect, Li Nuo nodded and praised them as "so awesome".
Hodum became more and more arrogant as he spoke.
The three of them were all experts in their respective fields around level 25, and were almost high-level players.
In the past, Hodum also played the Player Farm. At that time, the scenery was unparalleled. He had as many as 20 men and horses, and he was one step away from establishing a guild.
When they could punch "Wrath of Bahamut" and step on "Cairo World" at a glance, they entered a certain script and became [invaders] for the first time.
That script is "Corridor of the End."
Players in "Endless Corridor" are good at farming. To put it bluntly, they are good at doing things step-by-step. They make friends with medieval lords, create pastoral pastoral, organize their armies, and first hold the power in their hands. They work on the main line while guarding against their opponents.
As a result, there were only two people in the "End of the Corridor", and they forced the hidden BOSS out and flattened the entire city.
The fruit that I worked hard for half a month was crushed by others in an instant.
On the bright side, the three brothers of Hodum and the players they raised had the advantage in numbers at that time, and their levels were much higher than the opponent, so they fought.
In the end, only the three brothers survived.
That battle... was not a duel at all, it was a one-sided massacre, and the "End of the Corridor" left them with a great psychological shadow.
Since then, the three of them have figured out that the "Endless Corridor" is weak. It's okay to fight inside, but if you encounter players from other corridors, you don't know how you died.
So, let's focus on our own people.
Then the three of them met a man with glasses.
The three brothers thought about it and thought that they might not keep up with the changes of the times.
So he slapped his forehead, and found an aboriginal landlord in Basel like a smart guy, and started working for him, and earned some simple script tickets to make a living.
In other words, waiting to die.
Many players gradually despaired of the future as they saw more and bigger worlds. They may have stood on the upper level of the pyramid in the early days. As time went by and the rules changed, their previous advantages slowly disappeared, and their power, rights, connections, and everything they once had were swept away with the failure of some scripts.
In a person's life, one failure sometimes means the end of his life.
One day at a time has become the real idea of most people.
There are more than 9,000 active players in "Endless Corridor", of which only half are truly first-line players, and most of them are truly high-level and high-intensity players.
The three brothers of Hodum are the ones who were eliminated.
They believe that no matter how powerful they are inside the "Endless Corridor", it is meaningless. The higher the level, the greater the probability of encountering other corridors. Unless they become a member of the top team like "Wrath of Bahamut", they will die at the hands of others in the end.
Until I heard the answer to the "World War".
Lillian's strength is well known. Her victory is indeed unexpected, but not abrupt.
Li Nuo is the abrupt one.
The three brothers like Hodum would regard the "rising of a nobody" like Li Nuo as a kind of thought, and eventually formed a worship mentality.
"So... we have wanted to talk to you for a long time."
Hodum sighed. The three of them had been bastards, had glory, and finally had nothing.
"Are you done?"
Li Nuo stared with dead fish eyes. He and Cuihua held a bag of popcorn.
"..."
"Take out the money when you are done."
Li Nuo stretched out his hand and hijacked the three brothers with peace of mind.
"Since we are transporting things for you, can you keep some?"
"No."
Li Nuo counted the money skillfully and looked in a good mood.
Hodum now understood that Li Nuo did not eat children, but he ate players.
At this time, Li Luo Li Luo roared and ran back from outside. The little guy ran into the warehouse like a blind man.
"This idiot... Cuihua, go back."
"Okay~!"
Li Nuo turned and left. He originally wanted to take away the temporary equipment that the three carried with them, but thought that if Johannesson could use them, he would forget it.
"Shao Hong, leave them to you and Johannesson, I will take care of myself first."
"Oh, okay."
The iron door of the warehouse was closed.
Shao Hong comforted: "Actually, he is not bad."
Huo Dumu did not comment: "Yes, at least he didn't eat us."
Li Nuo could hear their conversation behind the door, but he didn't take it to heart and strode deep into the warehouse.
"Cuihua, do me a favor."
Cuihua was a little unhappy. It seemed that there was endless work to do with Li Nuo. This guy was a typical overtime maniac. He could even work for several days without sleeping.
"Are there any kickbacks?"
"I'll try to change your name."
"I'll call you 'Lucifer'!"
Cuihua's name is its only weakness.
Li Nuo plans to find an opportunity to give it a name of about a thousand words.
"Get to work! My Lucifer!"
"Okay~!"
The Canghuo, which contains crystal magic, is a soul flame. Cuihua can control the flames on her body so as not to affect things with elements. As part of Li Nuo's alchemy process, it is considered a half-assistant. It is very handy in distributing medicine leads, and it can also sort out alchemy equipment.
Li Nuo put the body of the vampire leader on the table. What he has to do is more important.
Just now, he decomposed the gorilla princess pets and made some simple alchemy potions, which acted on him, who could hardly use magic now, to extract the "mutation inducer" of the origin of things.
[Magic Drops]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Effect: Reveal the mutation-inducing substances floating on the body of the object in the form of magic factors]
[Brief description: Cheap magic potion, a good thing for people without magic power, and it can't be sold for much money]
Li Nuo envisioned using the magic potion to extract the magic factor of the vampire leader and find the virus on it.
He didn't care what kind of decoction the leader could make, but only cared about the value of the use behind it, which was the main task.
Johannesson might be able to complete this task, but the process would produce poisonous gas, which might cause the virus to spread. Only the demon hunter who was immune to all poisons didn't care about it.
Da.
The blue potion dripped onto the body of the vampire leader.
In theory, the body would then glow with a dim magic factor, but in reality, the magic factor was too dim.
"Hmm..."
"What's wrong?" Li Luoli Luo came over with a noodle pot in his arms and asked.
"Strange..." Li Nuo frowned: "The magic factor of the vampire leader is very weak, as expected, but it's too weak."
Li Nuo gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, sank his qi into his dantian, mobilized the remaining magic power in his body, and used the magic power to activate Denise's stronger perception.
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were golden.
When the magic power was insufficient, the muscles were forced to swell and ache, but he could see many things that were not clear.
He saw that there seemed to be invisible "bugs" in the air.
He also saw the magic factor of the vampire leader flowing toward the ground.
"The main line... is below the ground?"
Generally speaking, the magic factor is more like a dandelion encountering the wind, moving upwards. This was the first time he saw it moving downwards.
Lilolilo looked at him in confusion.
Li Nuo also looked at it.
Their eyes met.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is thinking about making you work overtime.
"Dig the ground."
"Oh."
Lilolilo was very obedient. He took a shovel and dug the ground. After digging for more than an hour, the little guy sat in the pit and suddenly realized a terrible problem.
"(д)< You don't want me to dig a grave for myself, do you?"
Li Nuo teased it.
"You want to be cremated?"
Lilolilo buried himself crying.
Li Nuo squatted in front of the pit, touched his chin, and observed that the magic factors would disappear in the pit area.
"There is a subspace under this city."
At this time, Cuihua floated over with a note. The note recorded the information of the fortune teller who told the gorilla princess about fortune-telling. It was the news she asked the pink-haired gorilla again.
The pink-haired gorilla said that the fortune teller predicted that there were high-dimensional creatures behind the whole incident.
Li Nuo wanted to meet the fortune teller.
But not now.
He put the note into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, and looked at the magic factor that disappeared near the deep pit again.
"Subspace zone..."
It would be great if Cha Bai was here.
Thinking so, he walked to the alchemy table arranged by Cuihua. The information was temporarily cut off, but he couldn't waste time. Now he had to make decoction quickly.
Facts have proved that women are needed to go out.
...
Basel.
Cha Bai felt that Li Nuo missed her.
"..."
She was speechless about her own self-conceit.
"Maljie..."
Cha Bai put down the book in her hand and went to the maintenance room. After opening the door, she saw that the maintenance room was arranged as a vampire's room. Maljie was lying in the [weapon box], and a group of mechanical life forms played "vampire slaves".
"You are playing COSPLAY, right?"
As a professional COSPLAY player, Cha Bai didn't understand what he was thinking.
The mechanical lifeform explained to her: "The leader said that he will fight the damn demon hunter's torture device alone, so no one should disturb him."
Cha Bai took a deep breath and said: "Tell your leader that I am going to open a space door first. If he feels that he is about to be teleported, he can use the 'voice transmission elf' or 'intracranial communicator' to tell me."
Slamming the door, Cha Bai held her forehead. If she knew how to smoke, she would definitely light a cigarette to calm herself down.
Why is our captain like this...
After returning to the study, Cha Bai flipped through the magic book and found a new teleportation ability she had seen, which was actually a sacrificial ceremony.
After setting up the sacrificial table, she took out the [shit block] and placed it on the table.
"Summon Balala God of Stink, give me strength, and take me to the world I want to go to!"
Cha Bai checked and found that this "God of Stink" recorded in the book was a magic master who appeared in the history of "Ikaros". It had been to the Sky City of Ikaros and extracted some special space magic from the threshold and later modified it into a mysterious teleportation spell.
Most importantly, this "God of Stink" is very weak.
She silently chanted the spell, activated the "Ancient Blood", and used magic to build a bridge to connect the altar.
——Hmph.
Cha Bai felt as if she heard a familiar voice.
"Ah?"
[Player 5950, has summoned a random script]
"Huh?"
When Cha Bai reacted, she was already standing on the train to the script.
"Hey!?"
[This is a personal leisure script. All your teammates cannot be contacted. You can only complete this script alone]
[Script "Reborn as a Maggot"]
[Script Difficulty: lv80]
[Below your strength, help you have a pleasant journey]
She triggered the incredible "ticket" ability, which is a treatment unique to the protagonist.
...
Shao Hong parked the car on the side of the road and called Johannesson on her mobile phone.
"Three people... are all players, and their strength is estimated to be..."
"Brother Li didn't use them?"
"No."
Johannesson was silent for a few seconds, then he said:
"Maybe these three people have defects in character or ability. It is more likely that the brother thinks that the biggest role of these three people is to protect you. But for me, Luo Lei and the brother, the importance of these three people is not high for the time being. On the contrary, it is safer for them not to follow the three of us, provided that you don't commit suicide."
"Is that so..."
Shao Hong looked out the window. The three Hodum brothers were selling firearms and bullets in a weapons store.
"Mr. John, you react too quickly. Sometimes I can't keep up."
She was a little disappointed.
Shao Hong is a scientific researcher in the real world. Her talent is more in book theory. In fact, her brain works very fast. After all, barbarians cannot have fun in the cloister. A diploma is a symbol of the bottom line of thinking ability, but in life and death The situation requires some wild paths, which is Shao Hong's weakness.
She's so good.
"Shao Hong, the significance of your existence is greater than all of us."
"Don't be ridiculous, Mr. John..."
"Oh, believe it or not."
There were sounds of gunfire from Johannesson's side.
"We still haven't found any trace of the vampire leader, nor any clues. Luo Lei and I will be walking around again. Please pay attention to your safety."
After that, he hung up the phone.
Shao Hong sighed and took out a pack of cigarettes from under the booth in the car. She didn't know how to smoke before. She even fell in love with her for the first time a year ago when she was 28 years old. That love changed her life. During the date, He died accidentally and came to the "Endless Corridor".
Now she is single again, but after leaving her original life circle, she lives with a great sense of oppression every day, and tension follows her everywhere.
"call……"
Breathing out a puff of green smoke, only cigarettes can sometimes make her mentality deceive herself.
"I'm so useless..."
"Shao Hong."
Sancho, one of the three brothers in front of the shop, waved to her.
Shao Hong cut off the cigarette in panic.
"Come on, come on!"
She got off the car at a very fast speed and walked over. Sancho got close and whispered: "I found a strange guy."
In the alley behind the store, there was a suspicious woman. She had pale skin and was as anemic as if her blood had been sucked dry.
The three brothers noticed her because the woman walked in a weird way, like a puppet.
"vampire."
Shao Hong bit her lip, immediately took out her cell phone and contacted Johannesson.
At this time, the woman was groping for something in the shadows, and her body began to become translucent.
Dashu, one of the three brothers, moved away and pressed him to the ground. Hodum rushed over in one step and kicked the vampire's head with a meteoric football kick!
Sancho opened his eyes wide and said helplessly: "Hey... catch someone alive!"
"No chance."
Hodum picked up a piece of minced meat, and the piece of meat disappeared from his palm.
"The vampire is disappearing... Although I don't know the specific situation... If I don't kill it quickly, it will run away on its own."
As he spoke, Hodum had a pair of sunglasses in his hand.
【Visible sunglasses】
[Quality: Excellent]
[Effect 1: You can see things that others cannot see, such as hidden ghosts]
[Effect 2: Detect “player” panel]
[Brief description: Xiao Ming couldn’t see himself when he looked in the mirror. He always suspected that it was a problem with the mirror, so he wanted to find someone to change the mirror. He suddenly remembered that he had something to do, so he dressed neatly, put on his favorite sunglasses, and looked in the mirror. It turns out there’s nothing wrong with the mirror]
Shao Hong gave the [Cairo Guard Bandit Badge] to the three brothers while driving, and the three brothers could also receive the task of killing the boss and recovering the equipment.
Hodum put on his sunglasses.
"Very good, having these sunglasses is equivalent to having a strategy book in hand..."
He hesitated to speak.
People nearby also noticed something was wrong.
"Hodum?"
"What did you see?"
Hodum frowned, his eyes under his sunglasses filled with astonishment.
"So many bugs..."
At this time, Shao Hong put down the phone.
"insect?"
"Well...the city is full of insects."
At this time, his sunglasses scanned an obscure answer:
[Flying insects of chimera ants: virus infectors, carrying "vampire" cells]
"Chimera ants?"
"Full-time hunter?"
The three brothers panicked.
Shao Hong quickly informed Johannesson of this information.
More than ten kilometers away.
When Johannesson saw the "chimera ants" on the screen of his mobile phone, his mental state became tense.
"Damn..."
He immediately called Shao Hong.
——"This is the Cairo signal~The person you are calling is not in the service area~Hehe~ Maybe he is behind you!"
Shao Hong was still unaware of the strange phenomena happening around him.
There are more heavyweights.
When Hodum looked at the city's main road through his sunglasses, behind the flying insects that only he could see, a huge black air flow shot straight into the sky like a tornado.
[High-dimensional life form:? ? 】
"Hodum, are the sunglasses accurate?"
Shao Hong asked him, wanting to confirm this matter.
"Seventy percent."
After getting the answer, Shao Hong immediately walked out of the alley.
But they can no longer get out.
Under the shadow where the vampire leader was just now, a door opened.
[Space connecting door: a door that only opens in the shadows, a door that connects to the mirrored city, a door that only the vampire leader can open]
As a white light flashed on Hodum's sunglasses, the surroundings became pure.
The dense flying insects in the city disappeared.
Four people were sucked in by the door.
[The other world: a mirror space like the real world, the only difference is that there are no people]
