Chapter 468 [(*^▽^*)]
It's like sending charcoal in snowy weather to help others when they are still weak. It's good to add icing on the cake when they all have billions of points. But it always feels like something is missing.
Lin Leyou blinked, remembering that he already possessed a gold-plated gem weapon, and immediately felt that Xue Rui was absolutely right. "Yeah, I wonder if there's any shortcut. I'll ask others when I get back after the dungeon ends."
He put the box away, wondering whether he should take out his precious gold-plated prop to show Xue Rui, but was it too stingy to just take it out to show him?
However, he was actually a little reluctant to give it to Xue Rui. He did have several gold-plated items, but he only had one gold-plated weapon, the Gemstone Void Blade!
However, after thinking it over, he decided to show it to him. "Speaking of gem-enhanced weapons, I have one. It's the only gem-enhanced weapon I have so far. As for the gem... it was a gem that I was rewarded with after we solved the Happy Community dungeon together."
"I've had this gem set in my only gold-plated weapon. Would you like to take a look?"
Xue Rui's eyes lit up suddenly, "I want to see!"
Seeing his unusually excited expression, Lin Leyou smiled slightly and took out the only gold-plated weapon item from his backpack, which was even inlaid with a gold gem!
Xue Rui solemnly took the weapon from his hand and checked its basic information. "Impressive. No wonder it's Xiao You's treasure. I've never seen you take it out before."
He was a little reluctant after looking at it, but it belonged to Lin Leyou. Although he was envious, he wouldn't have any ulterior motives. After looking at it, he returned it.
Lin Leyou nodded, "You won't need it most of the time. After all, it's really powerful. It automatically recharges so you don't need to buy bullets, and you can adjust the attack distance and range at any time. The bullet power can also be adjusted. It can hold 300 bullets at a time and can recharge. It can't be used while it's recharging."
Xue Rui said, "This weapon is indeed very powerful. If you use this weapon, even if all the people who come later attack you at once, they probably won't be a match for you. We don't need to worry at all."
Lin Leyou thought about how those people had crossed the mountains and forests to come to Xiushan Village and besieged him, and how he had fought back with this gun. He was indeed not afraid of anyone. However, he was a little wary of Jiang Changdong, that old fox. He wondered what kind of hidden tricks Jiang Changdong had up his sleeve, so he still had to be careful.
However, if I pair it with that gold-plated protective gear, hehe... then I'll truly be invincible.
The two sat on a bamboo-woven recliner, which was surprisingly cool and comfortable. They wondered how long they could live this kind of rural life. Big cities were indeed bustling, but they were too bustling and seemed very desolate.
"I wonder when this gloomy weather outside will end."
"I think it might continue until the end."
"Indeed, after all, there are many..." who are not living people here.
So it's not that the weather is cloudy, but rather that these dark clouds in the sky are actually formed by the gathering of yin energy because of the presence of so many non-human beings? No wonder they don't look like dark clouds.
Lin Leyou opened the map. "That ghost-faced spider seems to be getting close to some of the red dots. Is it about to make its move? And some of the red dots are almost reaching that cliff. I wonder if they brought enough rope. Maybe we'll see them step on the landmines we planted today?"
Xue Rui: "The Ghost-Faced Spider killed two people very quickly. Luckily, Xiao You was quick-witted at the time."
Lin Leyou nodded, "It was really fast, but that's also thanks to this identity. Thank goodness, if neither of us had any connection to this place, even if we had accepted the hidden mission, it probably wouldn't have been easy."
"We'll be attacked by the creatures here too, so we'll be attacked from both sides. It'll be too bad."
Xue Rui: "It's getting dark. Should we go out or stay here and sleep?"
Lin Leyou blinked, looking at him with a teasing gaze, "Want to sleep with me? From today onwards, sleeping together has a different meaning than before!"
A flicker of panic crossed Xue Rui's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Tonight is a perfect night for a sneak attack. Let's use Xiao You's gun. Why not use it? It charges automatically and doesn't consume any points."
Lin Leyou smiled and nodded, "No problem, in that case, let's set off."
The place they chose to ambush was at the foot of the mountain where they encountered the python with its incredible mimicry. Most people who came here were alone or in groups of two or three; not many people ventured this way.
So far, only Jiang Changdong and a few others, about ten people, have crossed the graveyard. However, they are now encountering the Ghost Face Spiders. Even if they survive the Ghost Face Spiders, they will probably be seriously injured.
After Lin Leyou and his group packed their things, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. Little did they know that many eyes were watching them from the village behind them.
"The two kids took their tools and went out."
"What a good kid, he knows how to protect the village."
"Yes, these two kids are sincere, I can feel it."
"They're such a perfect match. Shall we give them a wedding before they leave? Let's make some preparations."
“Okay, okay, no problem. We’ll embroider two wedding gowns, both for men, which are relatively simple, unlike the phoenix coronet and embroidered robe for women. No matter how skilled we are, we can’t embroider two of them in this short time.”
"We'll help too."
"Oh, and don't bring any of the good food or drinks downstairs. Also, call back any of the animals that have been wandering around or sleeping underground!"
"No problem, leave it to me."
"I'm going too, it'll definitely be a huge success!"
The two, who had already left the village, were unaware that the villagers were discussing their marriage. They had already reached the foot of the mountain. "If we go any further up, we'll encounter that snake. This snake is just a wild beast from the mountains and won't care about our identities."
"Then we'll wait here. If anyone manages to escape, we can kill them right here."
Lin Leyou said, "No problem. I'll wait in the open, and you keep an eye on things in the dark. If anyone tries to escape from me, remember to kill them instantly."
Xue Rui nodded, "No problem."
They opened the map and observed while waiting. Sure enough, there were quite a few capable people. Although they couldn't defeat the ghost-faced spider, their goal was Xiushan Village, not necessarily to kill the spider. Some people who had detected the danger in advance with props bypassed the area where the ghost-faced spider was active.
So much so that a few people had already reached the bottom of the cliff, and it seemed they were about to enter the canyon.
Lin Leyou, "I wonder if there were any other traps besides the two landmines we left behind..."
Xue Rui said, "I'm not sure how much it will trigger, but it will definitely cause them some trouble."
Just then, they heard a muffled explosion. The two exchanged a knowing glance and realized that two red dots had disappeared on the other side of the canyon, two people had died, and one million points had been credited to their account.
One landmine killed two people, and you earned so many points, you really hit the jackpot.
Those who followed could only watch helplessly as the people below were blown up, while one person happened to be hanging in mid-air by a rope. He had almost fallen down himself, so he had escaped with his life.
“There are landmines buried below. Take out your equipment and check it out.”
"No problem, I have such props here."
After a long search, they found no more landmines in the vicinity. They then realized that there was only one landmine, and that the other side had obviously anticipated that they would search carefully after detonating one, so they did not plant a second one.
"This person is very cunning and shrewd."
"However... there are actually people who walk faster than us."
"I wonder if they have arrived at Xiushan Village yet."
“We’re sure we’re on the right road. Since someone has been there before and even set traps along the way, then once we cross this canyon, we might not be far from Xiushan Village.”
"That's right, great! We're finally almost at Xiushan Village, let's go!"
"Slow down! Just because there are no landmines doesn't mean there aren't other traps. Be careful!"
“That’s true. Let’s walk slowly. It’s already dark, and the sky is covered with dark clouds. There’s no light at all; you can’t see your hand in front of your face.”
"You have night vision goggles, right? We've all put them on, you should put them on too."
The three people present didn't even glance at the bodies of the two people who had been killed in the explosion. Instead, they searched through their belongings, collected everything that was still usable, and then abandoned the bodies on the spot.
"There's a small pebble path here. We'll just follow it."
"This gravel path was there all along; it wasn't made by anyone else. You can walk on it without worry."
"Beware of traps."
The three of them slowly walked along the pebble path. Wearing night vision goggles, they could roughly see the surrounding area. Fortunately, there were no large animals around.
And so, they crossed the canyon safely and reached the exit, right here...
"boom!"
Lin Leyou and his group heard the sound of a landmine exploding again. In the dark and silent night, the sound was far too obvious, a muffled explosion.
Lin Leyou said with a smile, "Only one person died this time. It seems that the three of them went separately. However, the other two red dots don't look like they're alright either. Their locations were both exploded. Although they were retreating, they weren't moving very fast. They didn't die, but they were definitely injured."
Xue Rui: "The fact that you're not moving fast means you've injured your leg, but there should be some medical equipment available."
Xue Rui was right. Although the two red dots were slow at first, they resumed their movement speed after pausing in a certain place for a while.
