Chapter 565

Although the girl was full of doubts, the fact was that the clone was still standing in the cave without any attack.

The thing that crawled out of the coffin was obviously wrapped in an extremely resentful and twisted aura, and it was obvious that the other party's power had completely occupied the entire cave and was connected with the corpses in the surrounding coffins, forming a deadly field that no one could enter. But the clone that was now in the field was still intact and did not attract the attention of the thing at all.

What's going on?

Yili, who had already prepared to lose this clone, tilted his head in some confusion.

He could clearly feel an extremely strong and terrible pressure that seemed to tear him apart in the next second, but the other party did not take any action at all. This phenomenon was really quite strange.

Could it be that because the clone's adjustment range was too large, the other party could no longer regard the clone as a living person and lock on to attack?

No, although he was only indirectly controlling the clone through the power of the guitar, this common sense was enough to explain the problem. That thing has undoubtedly locked onto the clone. According to the rules, it should not let the clone go no matter what, and should attack immediately.

Although it said so, this thing really has no intention of attacking.

Goto Ichiri was very confused. She felt that her common sense judgment of strange things was greatly challenged. The thousand-year-old zombie-like thing in front of her completely violated her experience of strange things and was no longer what a normal strange thing should be like.

Now, what should I do?

While thinking, Ichiri controlled the clone to observe the surroundings. At this time, she found that several coffins around her showed signs of opening, and the ones who came out of the coffins were all stiff corpses with purple bodies. These things stood silently in the dark cave, and for some reason, Ichiri felt that she was reviewing a troop. She even imagined that in the next second, these things would march out of the cave in a goose-step to the sound of passionate music and rush to the village below under the command.

Of course, these delusional pictures did not affect Ichiri's process of carefully identifying the faces of these corpses and confirming their identities. As expected, the faces of all the recognizable corpses can be matched with the phantom Zhangjiacun villager before. These strange creatures full of twisted and resentful auras were transformed by the disappeared Zhangjiacun people. The invisible death that permeated the mass grave space before was released after gathering through some unknown ritual, and it was the twisted death that existed in these corpses.

I don’t know who placed these corpses in this cave and gathered their power, so that even Red Moon-level players cannot resist the invisible death, including Gao Hai, whose strength has greatly grown now, and it is difficult to resist that kind of thing for a long time, so that he can only rely on Yili to repeatedly use his clone to forcefully reach the [Ghost Crying Cave] and enter the interior of the ritual array.

Well... at least one thing is certain, that is, the creator of this ritual array should be a living person.

The argument to draw this conclusion is very simple. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand this array. This clone is still alive and well, which is enough to explain the problem. An invisible curse array that can indiscriminately destroy those who enter, but there is no intention of death inside the array. The weird corpses do not have any attacking actions, and there is no too strong spiritual pollution force spreading in this place. This proves that the creator of this array is definitely a living person. After all, only living people need to set up a safe zone and leave a way out for this array.

But I still don’t understand it. Mystical rituals are too complicated. I can’t understand how the other party did it.

While thinking, Yili controlled the clone to approach the corpse that was the core obsession. To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that the other party always maintained a tense posture and his skin showed an abnormal purple color, Yili would probably suspect that the other party was an old grandfather who fell asleep while standing. It is also worth mentioning that although the corpses coming out of the two rows of coffins around can be identified, the old man with his eyes closed cannot find the corresponding phantom. Neither Kaguya nor Qianhua found the corresponding individual among the phantom villagers of Zhangjia Village.

Could this be the patriarch of Zhangjia Village?

After all, generally speaking, shouldn't the big boss be the highest-ranking officer? Just like in those fantasy games, the most capable person in the army must be the general, and the most capable person among the demons must be the devil king. Most works will be set up like this.

Dinglingling——

While the girl was thinking and observing the corpse, a barely perceptible bell suddenly sounded from behind.

Is there something behind! ?

Ichiri, who became alert almost instantly, manipulated the clone to make a defensive posture, but did not look back immediately. In contrast, Goto Ichiri, who was staying in the hidden village, suddenly had a small mirror in his hand, and the picture that emerged in the mirror was behind the clone, as if an invisible eye had grown on the top of the clone's head.

At first, in the darkness, the mirror did not show anything.

But then, as the power of this obsession that can show [real things] began to play out, Ichiri clearly saw the fluctuations of space distortion, and a face that was obviously distorted emerged from the gap of the fluctuations.

{Li Ziyong? }

Gao Hai, who shared this scene through a spiritual link, called out the man's name.

Hey, is this the person?

Yili was stunned for a moment. She had obtained information from Gao Hai about the previous week. She knew that the leader of Lijia Village used the power of the mountain god to kill her and Gao Hai in the first week, and Gaohai counterattacked and killed Lijiacun in the third week. Later, he tried to attack Gao Hai, but it had no effect and he could only run away again. His condition after that is unknown.

Although in the later stages of the three-week mission, Gao Hai successfully sacrificed the entire villagers of Lijia Village by communicating with the flesh and blood rock statues. But because Li Ziyong did not appear among the villagers at that time, Gao Hai suspected that the other party might have survived and not been killed along with him. After all, in the final analysis, he is the one who controls this dungeon, Strange Village. It is impossible that after so many years of accumulation, he does not have some life-saving trump cards in hand.

Jingle bell——

Through the perspective of the mirror, Yili confirmed that Li Ziyong, who seemed to be in a bad state, was holding a small golden bell in his hand. It was him who was shaking the thing gently, and the slight ringing sound could be heard for a mile.

The other party is not in this space.

Through those ripples, Yili could be sure that Li Ziyong himself was not in the death space where her clone was. The other party used the power of some kind of obsession to transmit the ringtone across space to the Ghost Crying Cave.

Buzz——

All the corpses shook at this moment.

The corpses of the strange things that had been silent all along began to tremble all over at this moment, and then returned to the coffin one after another, and then the coffin closed automatically, making a dull sound.

Pale paper figures appeared one after another, lifted the coffin, sprinkled paper money, and played harsh mournful music.

There is no way to know what happens next.

Because the corpse of the old man who had been peaceful before started to move. In less than a second, he grabbed the clone and threw it into his coffin. According to the last perception from the clone, the power in the coffin first drained the clone's blood, then peeled off the clone's flesh and internal organs in an instant, crushing the bones and turning them into pitch-black stones, all at an extremely fast speed. divided.

Those flesh and blood...are they dedicated to the Fox Empress? Then the bones were turned into black stones involving the power of the mountain god?

Yili stretched out his hand to cover his swollen and dizzy head, took a long breath and recovered a little, then closed his eyes and began to think.

She has no way of knowing what happened next. After this clone was eliminated, the girl's state was close to the limit and there was no way to continue investigating and exploring. Of course, there is no need for her to continue doing this. After all, the currently observed intelligence is enough for Gao Hai to start searching for the core obsession. Not to mention that according to the message from the spiritual link, the other party seems to be heading towards Gao Hai. Went to the edge.

tread! tread! tread! ! !

One after another, with heavy steps, the villagers of Zhangjia Village who turned into twisted corpses appeared around Gao Hai.

In the rotten smell, strong resentment and death quickly spread.

Different from the corpses that Kaguya Chika and I saw before, the auras on these corpses are undoubtedly Red Moon-level monsters, and they are monsters that will truly pose a serious threat to players. Even if a Red Moon-level player deals with an enemy of this level in a one-on-one situation, they must proceed with caution and cannot completely avoid the possibility of overturning. Now the number of strange objects appearing in front of Gao Hai has exceeded twenty, and it continues to increase.

Not only that, above the sky, several pale hands emerged from the darkness, and the core obsession that was already lingering in the abandoned village also came to find it at this time. At this time, because the aura of the strange things around him was too strong, Gao Hai's perception was interfered with and he couldn't even judge whether there was a real body in those palms, so he could only endure the increasingly strong mental erosion.

Of course, such a scene did not panic Gao Hai.

"I was wondering if there was someone hiding behind, and it turned out there was. Li Ziyong, aren't you going to come out and show your face?"

He even whistled, and after receiving the information from Goto Ichiri, he directly called the other party's name.

【...Do you know me? 】

Li Ziyong's voice sounded in the darkness.

It was completely different from Zhou Mu before. He completely lost all self-confidence, suppressed fear and confusion, and his voice was trembling and hoarse.

Even if he hasn't seen the other party yet, Gao Hai can still imagine the other party's embarrassed appearance. Especially when looking back and comparing the confident and arrogant look of this man in the first episode, Gao Hai had to say that this was really strangely funny.

"I do know the village chief of Lijia Village. No, you should be the former village chief now. After all, I am the holder of the land deed. Speaking of which, how did you survive? Logically speaking, all the villagers in Lijia Village They all should have been sacrificed, right? I'm curious how you escaped."

After making a vague gesture to Chachai behind him, Gao Hai maintained a relaxed expression on his face and continued to speak into the darkness.

[The Li family... was really sacrificed... why... how did you do it...]

Unsurprisingly, after Gao Hai self-destructed, the voice in the darkness became more trembling, as if he had been severely mentally stimulated.

[Obviously...obviously we have prepared for the new God's Festival...]

[Everyone was waiting for the new sacrifice with joy...Everyone was happy...Talking and laughing...Then suddenly disappeared...]

[The village suddenly became empty...Everyone disappeared...The mountain god also became abnormal...Became very weak...My authority as the village chief also disappeared...This...All of this...These terrible things...It turned out that it was you...Did you do it...]

A phantom slowly emerged, and Li Ziyong's eyes were full of blood, and his expression was distorted in Gao Hai's sight.

His body was trembling, and his eyes were staring at Gao Hai. That expression was not like looking at a person, but looking at an unreasonable and terrifying monster.

Considering that this guy probably couldn't keep the memory of the replay like Xuehua, the mountain god and the fox girl, it must be that this guy found out that the whole village was gone without knowing anything, and the mental stimulation he received must be quite serious, especially after discovering that there was a problem with the mountain god and the land deed, and all his wealth was completely wiped out. It can be said that he didn't go crazy directly. It's a good willpower.

[Who are you… Are you really a human… What grudge does the Li family have against you… Why are you making things difficult for innocent people like us…]

Li Ziyong opened his mouth, his expression had become ferocious and angry, and he was about to question Gao Hai.

Bang!

But before he could finish his words, Gao Hai, who had finally confirmed the other party's position through his mental power after the mutation, fired directly. Then Li Ziyong's phantom fluctuated, and one of his ears was instantly smashed and bloody.

Tsk, did he tilt his head just when the bullet was about to hit?

Gao Hai frowned, and he realized that this sure-hit pistol still had a small flaw, that is, although this thing can aim at the target and hit the opponent out of thin air, if the opponent moves at the moment of being hit, it is still possible to deviate from the target position.

However, it is easy to make up for this small problem.

[Uh ah ah ah... you heartless bastard...]

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——

Li Ziyong, who was covering his bloody ears, wanted to say something else, but Gao Hai pulled the trigger continuously, and dozens of bullets hit Li Ziyong from all angles in an instant. The impact of each bullet was equivalent to that of a small rocket, and the guy's body was shattered in an instant, leaving no fragments larger than a fingernail.

If you want to really kill the opponent, such an attack may not work. After all, it seems that Li Ziyong is very lucky. But Gao Hai felt that it was not satisfying enough if he didn't do it a few times. Just treat it as collecting some interest in advance, and...

"I've seen enough of you unforgivable brain-dead guys who always turn the tables and scold others. To be honest, don't do this kind of boring and rotten work in front of me. I think it's disgusting even if you don't find it disgusting."

After a casual complaint, Gao Hai summoned the police and turned his attention to the corpses and pale hands around him.

Chapter 134: The defenders on the front line and the explorers in the rear

Being besieged by two Red Moon-level core obsessions at the same time is undoubtedly unimaginable for any player.

Even Chachai, who is known as the "Historian" and is known as a master of suicide among Red Moon-level players, rarely tries to provoke two Red Moon-level core obsessions at the same time, and the few times he provokes them, he confirms the retreat in advance and dares to do so when he is sure of escape. And like now, being attacked by two core obsessions, and the rule ability has not been fully explored, and there are no specific countermeasures, Chachai has never done it before.

"Hu..."

Breathing has become heavy involuntarily.

The pale palm that emerged in the dark sky stretched a little, and the invisible line spread from the fingers, connecting to several vague figures crawling out of the mud.

The zombie-like thing jumped up, then landed steadily on the ground, jumping forward in the heavy sound. It seems that their movements are very slow, but in fact, they can cross a distance of more than ten meters in the blink of an eye, closing the distance with the players at a very fast speed.

These inhuman things are releasing their power unscrupulously.

The palm floating in the sky is undoubtedly an extension of the power of the Red Moon-level core obsession. Even if the opponent who is here at this moment is not necessarily the main body, this twisted and terrifying power will not change. The same is true for the corpses that are surrounded from all directions. Cha Chai can clearly feel that a core obsession-level power is spreading in the bodies of these things, waiting for the opportunity to release.

If I have to deal with this situation alone, I am afraid that there is no other possibility except death.

Cha Chai couldn't help thinking in his heart.

However, he was not very nervous.

Although the current situation is a dead end for players like him, the problem is that he is not standing here alone. Standing in front of him is Mr. Gao Hai, who cannot be viewed with common sense. Behind this person who was so powerful that Chachai didn't know how to describe him, and sometimes he couldn't help but wonder if he was the Buddha who came to the world, or the ultimate strong man sent by God to save the world, Chachai himself didn't feel any tension at all.

{I'll deal with it here. If you have the strength to spare, try these two core obsessions. If you don't have the strength to spare, protect yourself and don't be affected by my attack}

Gao Hai's calm voice sounded in the temporary mental link. He stepped forward and directly faced the twisted corpses.

Such a situation was expected by Chachai. He did not have to express his determination to fight with Gao Hai at this time. Instead, he nodded gently, turned around and left, and quickly disappeared into the dark village.

There is no point in fighting with the Red Moon-level core obsession. After all, these things cannot be killed, and there is no benefit in winning. In comparison, how to find the core obsession as soon as possible to complete the key purpose of this operation is more important.

So, where will the obsessions of the last two core obsessions be hidden?

While thinking, Chachai had disappeared into the darkness. Gao Hai and the police officers he summoned were on the left and right, and they were also facing the surrounding weird things.

The third bomb has not been used yet, and there are still four suppression bombs left. There are still many things that can quickly suppress the Red Moon-level weird things, but it may not be a good idea to use them all here. After all, neither the pale white hand nor the zombies look like the real body of the monster, so it is better to save these key means for when facing the real body.

Then, use the props that can be used continuously to deal with these things.

Buzz buzz buzz --

In the harsh buzzing sound, a blood-red chain saw appeared in Gao Hai's hand.

The corpses howled, and the power of the curse spread rapidly, and the strong pollution began to erode Gao Hai's consciousness.

It seems that there are invisible lines that want to control Gao Hai's body, want to establish a connection with his flesh and bones, and even invade his soul.

But all this is meaningless.

The power of the blessing of nothingness protects Gao Hai's body and consciousness, and the blessing of the runaway will then push his already strong physique to a higher level. Coupled with the powerful mental power that has now been upgraded to a higher level, even the rule power of the red moon-level monster is difficult to interfere with Gao Hai himself.

What's more, he is not fighting alone now.

Bang, bang, bang, bang--

Amid the continuous roar of gunfire, the police followed Gao Hai and rushed towards the corpses of the strange creatures, and kept pulling the trigger to attack. For a while, the dark village was filled with explosions, as if it had become a battlefield in World War II.

Boom-Boom-Boom--

In the violent explosion, other players who were also in this abandoned village had also begun to act.

{Wow, it was so noisy. Mr. Gao's physical and mental strength were too terrible even though he didn't rest at all.}

Tangyuan looked at the fire and crackling in the distance of the village from a distance, and couldn't help shaking his head and smacking his lips, and sighed in the temporary mental link.

{Did Ah Hai rush here directly without resting?}

Qianhua's expression changed when she heard this, and she immediately realized that Gao Hai was probably trying his best to force himself to continue fighting.

{…We have to find the core obsession. This abandoned village should be a very critical place. Maybe the core obsession is here.}

Kaguya, who had recovered a little, also said in the temporary mental link and quickly began to think about how to act.

{You two are not in a good state, right? The mental pollution in this place is very serious. I don’t think I can last too long. Are you sure you two can really find something here? I think it’s better to retreat as soon as possible and not cause trouble for others.}

Tangyuan, who has always been bold and adventurous, frowned and expressed a different opinion this time. She is not a person who only knows how to mess around regardless of danger. On the contrary, it is precisely because of her love of adventure that this old player has a very keen sense of danger. She can vaguely feel that what Gao Hai and Chacai are dealing with at this time may be the last few difficulties in this dungeon. The hidden danger is by no means as simple as it seems. If you rush in rashly, you may die miserably.

{Do you have a way to find Li Xiaoxiao? She disappeared shortly after entering this village. Given her connection with Zhangjia Village, I think her current location might be related to the core obsession.}
