Chapter 444: Corpse Transformation, Ishimura
As long as old players who have been playing since the Dao 1 era should know that the hero settings of Dao Tower actually have some references from other works.
The funny wizard Lina is the most typical example.
All her skill settings are directly copied from the character "Lina Imbas" in the TV series "Swordsman/Sword Beauty" of the same name, but she needs to avoid copyright in the Sword 2 period. The question gave her a new personality.
With the update of the game version, Lina's skills have also undergone many changes, but the name of her ultimate move "God's Destruction" has never changed.
The Lina in front of Luke is one of the temporary teammates invited by Carl this time, and her personality and behavioral logic are actually relatively close to the original version. She especially likes to chase and kill demonized heroes. I am extremely opposed to "suicide". "Squad of Warriors" was established, believing that all demonized brave men must die.
Once she enters combat mode and has the Blazing Soul buff stacked on her body, Lina will easily go crazy on the spot due to the crazy accumulation of heat. For example, in order to kill the demonized hero, she will directly annihilate a building with a single strike of God's Destruction Slash. She has done this behavior more than once or twice.
Many people even believe that this crazy woman will one day become a member of the Demonized Heroes.
That is to say, an all-powerful mage like Karl, who is knowledgeable and sophisticated, and has rich means of escape and self-protection, can slightly suppress it from a technical level, and is usually willing to take her to play with him.
Of course, who she fears the most is probably the "Great Mage Rubick" who is in the magic zone of Four Star City.
As for the Hu En and Levi mentioned by Lina, they are two forest type braves with the same rating as her.
"Horn the Dryad Guard" and "Levi the Windrunner".
Treant Guard Huon is a tree man whose mission is to protect nature and his homeland. Because he has the fastest movement speed among his kind, he was sent to check the damage to the vegetation where the spacecraft crashed, if necessary. , he also needs to undertake the task of regenerating the vegetation in the area.
Windrunner Levi was picked up and raised by a high-ranking wind elf. She also loved nature. Originally, she wanted to wait, but the stubbornness of the tree people was such that even the dwarves found it difficult. In comparison, if he wants to go in, no one can stop him.
Windrunner, who chose to abide by the rule of "the brave never leaves alone" simply followed.
Because it is an area covered by a monster lair, there is basically no risk of being able to enter but not exit. Therefore, after the two leaders took the lead, some brave men with broken heroic templates in the Dota worldview also chose to enter.
However, Comrade Luke was not in a hurry. Instead, he directly put on the antlers, summoned the wolf spirit and the shadow master, and threw out multiple single-flame eyes before starting to investigate directly.
Although the area covered by the rules will block signals from inside and outside, Luke only needs to investigate inside.
It's never wrong to be careful.
The current forest area can be regarded as a relatively important gathering area for wild monsters of the Radiant Guards. There are quite a lot of types including demons, ghosts, trolls, owl beasts, kobolds, harpies, centaurs, etc.
Just like the wild monsters outside the Starry Stronghold, when these wild monsters are refreshed or reproduce in too many numbers, they will instinctively choose to attack the surrounding human gathering places, which is quite threatening. In addition, some of the materials and materials they produce are There is a very small probability that monster props will drop, so humans will issue tasks to clear out wild monsters almost every day.
However, because Prayer Karl has purchased a lot of monster corpses in large quantities recently, and the prices are quite considerable, many low-level warriors of the Radiant Guards also chose this nearest wild monster area to start hunting. .
This is one of the main reasons why so many brave men gathered here before Luke and the others arrived... but it also means that another thing will happen at the same time.
That is, there may be some low-level brave men who came to make extra money and were affected by the crash of the spaceship early on.
Under the gaze of the supplicant and the funny wizard, Luke's expression gradually changed from relaxed to serious, and then from serious to ugly.
Before they could ask, Luke had already displayed his One Flame Eye link screen through the Iron Blood Armguard.
Some brave men have boldly touched the space around the spaceship, which has not completely extinguished the flames but still maintains considerable integrity. It can be seen that it has been smashed by the broken spaceship and is full of corpses of various vegetation and creatures. wreckage.
And among them were human corpses.
The brave men are all familiar with handling such scenes. Even those who have never been exposed to autopsies at the beginning can still judge some things from the corpses.
This male corpse was a little unlucky. He was some distance away from the crash point of the spacecraft. He was not directly hit, but his throat was directly scratched by the steel fragments that flew out from the hull due to the shock.
It was quite unlucky to die.
But that's not the point. The point is that when the body was dragged aside by other brave men, and they were about to contact the guild to send relevant personnel to collect the body for burial after their investigation, something happened.
The human corpse, which had completely lost its voice, started to move without any warning. The shoulder blades of the body suddenly extended a pair of sharp bone knives mutated from the ulna and radius, and crawled from the ground in an extremely twisted posture. stand up.
Of course, this sound would not escape the ears of the other brave men. One of them wore a cowboy hat and was dressed like a western cowboy. The brave man with a huge cigar in his mouth turned around almost reflexively. It only took one second to complete the action of pulling out the revolver from his waist, pointing the barrel forward, pulling the trigger and firing two shots, and both bullets blew off the monster's head.
B-level hero——Smoking Gun Max, a Red Dead Redemption player who values both shooting speed and accuracy.
However, what is unexpected is that the corpse mutant monster, whose head has been blown off and should theoretically be unable to move at all, actually bounces towards the pipe like a spring!
This made Max, who was very confident in his headshot ability, unable to make any effective dodge movements for a while.
But at this moment, a sharp arrow shot from the side accurately hit the monster's ventral position, but it did not penetrate it, but took it flying a long distance, and then a A natural wind energy tied the monster directly to a tough tree.
This is the "Binding Strike" from Windrunner Levi.
The mutated monster that had lost its head was struggling crazily, and it didn't look like it had just come back from the dead.
And the resurrection of this monster is like sending a signal. The corpses of humans and monsters, which were originally distributed around the spacecraft, all large and small, turned out to be resurrected, and the corpses were greatly mutated into extremely dangerous and twisted forms. The appearance climbed up from the ground and immediately rushed towards the heroes.
Although Luke did not visit the scene in person so he could not see the plug-in information on their heads, the mutated appearance and the fact that they would not die even if their heads were shot made Luke immediately think of a kind of "necromorph". monster.
As the name suggests, it is an existence transformed from dead corpses. At first glance, it looks like Resident Evil, but the settings of the two sides are very different.
And if these are really all zombies, then this spaceship, which still maintains a relatively intact shell and has formed a monster-like lair covering rule, may only be that one——
The "Ishimura" spaceship from "Dead Space".
