Chapter 592 [(*^▽^*)]
"Where is it hiding? Although I don't know why it only operates within the circled area of the resort, it can accurately find anyone hiding within that area."
"So what if that's the case? Aren't you going to hide it anymore? There's a cellar behind the restaurant, which I secretly dug a while ago. It might not be useful, but at least it'll give you some peace of mind. So, are you going or not?"
Could the other two possibly refuse?
"go!"
After reaching an agreement, the three figures quickly disappeared.
Apart from the players, no one knew what was happening inside the mountain. Even Lin Wanyi didn't pay attention to it. But just because they didn't pay attention didn't mean nothing would happen.
About an hour after the players descended from the mountaintop passage, a rather large commotion occurred.
Lin Leyou suddenly sat up in bed. "What happened?!"
Xue Rui quickly put on his clothes and then led Lin Leyou out of the wooden house, but the ground beneath their feet was still shaking violently.
"The mountain is about to collapse!"
After realizing what had happened, Lin Leyou and his companion ran down the mountain at breakneck speed. They didn't notice that as they left, the vase on the windowsill behind the house fell to the ground due to the shaking of the mountain.
The vase was smashed, and all the flowers inside were scattered on the ground.
As expected, the thing hidden inside moved, and its fluctuations were detected by the nearby prop.
Lin Wanyi, who was far away, received the news immediately and rushed to the location without making any unnecessary movements.
"What's going on? Isn't that where Lin Leyou and the others' cabin number ten is? How did it end up there? Oh no! It's moving... We have to hurry!"
Meanwhile, Lin Leyou and his companion had already reached the foot of the mountain. After walking a distance, the noise under their feet lessened somewhat, but it was still there, and they could even hear the mountain rumbling.
Jiang Xiali quickly appeared nearby. "You're out?"
Lin Leyou nodded. "Where is Lin Wanyi?"
Jiang Xiali shook her head, "I don't know, they might be investigating something, but this commotion..."
Just as Lin Leyou was about to speak, he saw Yu Peng coming down the mountain, looking quite disheveled. He must have fallen down on the way down, and his body was covered with fallen leaves and dust.
He smiled when he saw the three of them, "Oh, it's you guys, what a coincidence."
Lin Leyou smiled and nodded, "Hello, are you alright?"
Yu Peng laughed and patted his clothes, brushing off all the dead leaves and dust. "It's nothing, it's nothing. What's wrong with a grown man falling a couple of times?"
He finished speaking and then glanced back a few times, saying, "Something in these mountains is about to come out. Aren't you going to go a little further away?"
Lin Leyou raised an eyebrow. The "inside the mountains" part was exactly what it sounded like; it meant inside the mountains.
"And what about you? Aren't you going to go somewhere else?"
Yu Peng paused for a moment, then looked at Lin Leyou, "Thank you, but... I'm already stuck here. You guys should hurry up now, maybe you can still escape."
Lin Leyou could roughly guess that Yu Peng's character was destined to die at the resort.
"where are you going?"
After Yu Peng finished speaking, he turned around and walked to the back, seemingly heading to the restaurant.
"Where can I go? I'm going to die soon, and I want to take a few people down with me before I die. What do you think?"
Lin Leyou raised an eyebrow, "Wait!"
Yu Peng stopped in his tracks. "What's wrong? Are you trying to stop me?"
Lin Leyou walked up to him, then took something out of his pocket and handed it to him. Yu Peng was a little confused, but he still reached out and let Lin Leyou put the thing in his hand.
He was truly stunned when he held the thing in his palm. Various thoughts flashed through his mind, but this was not one of them!
He didn't make a fuss, but instead put his hands in his pockets. "Thanks! I really don't have this. It's perfect to keep them from escaping."
Yu Peng then continued to leave, this time with much lighter steps. He probably knew that he was facing several opponents alone, and while he might be able to kill one or two, it was more likely that one would escape.
This was not what he wanted to see. These people had to die, not a single one could be left alive. As for the people in the surrounding villages, ha! Don't think that living far away will allow you to escape. That thing will never let any living person go!
I wonder if those people will be able to escape.
Forget it, if they can even get their hands on this, they don't seem like good people. Besides, they seem so confident. Yu Peng thought he should focus on whether his operation later would be successful.
Lin Leyou returned after Yu Peng had walked away. The thing he had given him was just an ordinary white grenade. It was commonplace to them, but to Yu Peng it was a real weapon of mass destruction.
In Jiangxia Village, the intention was to "perish together with the people at the resort."
Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, the entire resort is deserted now. The few remaining people definitely couldn't have escaped; they must be hiding somewhere."
Yu Peng definitely knows this place.
Jiangxia Village, “This mountain…”
Before they could finish speaking, they saw a huge boulder collapse from the mountain peak, rolling downhill, but not towards them.
They stood at a distance and watched quietly.
Lin Leyou: "Is Lin Wanyi on the mountain?"
Jiang Xiali nodded, "They may have found traces of something on the mountain. They are currently pursuing it, but we don't know if they can catch it successfully. They have been out for the past few days, but there has been no news. They are very cunning."
Lin Leyou sighed, "The enforcement team isn't having an easy time either."
Jiang Xiali glanced at Xue Rui, said nothing, and simply nodded.
Lin Leyou knew that Jiang Xiali was wary of Xue Rui's existence. After all, Xue Rui was just an outsider to them, a player, and not one of them.
But Lin Leyou himself is also an outsider, although he is not a player, but a resident.
Jiang Xiali's eyes suddenly sharpened. "I saw Lin Wanyi. He is indeed in the mountains."
When Lin Leyou looked over, he didn't see anyone; his view was probably blocked again.
"Huh?" Lin Leyou said, "The mountain isn't shaking anymore, could it be..."
In Jiangxiali, "It's not that simple. It's probably just a temporary halt; it'll probably resume later..."
As expected, the battle between the player and the BOSS was only temporarily paused for some reason, perhaps the player's items, or perhaps the player's talent, etc.
After this pause, the commotion intensified. What was initially an earthquake was now described as a violent shaking of the earth. Moreover, within ten minutes, they saw a crack appear in the middle of the mountain.
When the crack appeared, the violent sound and the ground shook violently, and just like that, in their sight, the mountain was completely split in two.
Several disheveled figures emerged from the crack in the mountainside—the players!
Then, some black tentacle-like things slowly emerged from the crack and clung to the surrounding area, and the monster's true form gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Octopus monster."
After seeing it clearly, Lin Leyou muttered, "How come..."
Why do so many monsters like to use octopuses? But we're in the mountains, not by the sea.
Jiang Xiali looked somewhat surprised, but soon after the monster emerged from the mountain, they realized that it wasn't an octopus monster, but rather a monster with eight octopus tentacles growing from its back!
This octopus's tentacles must be tens of meters long, and it looks about the same size as a bridge pier.
Lin Leyou exclaimed, "My God, should we go a little further away?"
His defensive gear can only protect himself and Xue Rui. If the monster attacks them, he might not be able to protect Jiang Xiali. But Jiang Xiali should have her own defensive gear, right?
Jiang Xiali then looked at Lin Leyou, "It's okay, you can activate the Ghost Wall and we can hide inside. Although this monster is very strong, it is real and doesn't have any supernatural talents."
Lin Leyou thought for a moment, then nodded, "Alright then, this position offers a perfect vantage point. Let's watch from here; it's sure to be an exciting battle."
Then, with a wave of his hand, a ghost wall appeared, enveloping the three of them. Soon, their figures disappeared. On the back of the monster in the distance, countless eyes suddenly opened on the tentacles that were waving wildly, all looking towards the spot where Lin Leyou and the others had disappeared.
One of the tentacles even moved closer, and its eye scanned the surroundings before retracting itself after finding no one.
The three people inside the Ghost Wall also witnessed this scene. As the master of the Ghost Wall, Lin Leyou can now control the Ghost Wall to observe the situation outside and even let the other two see it as well.
Jiang Xia was somewhat frightened. "This BOSS is acting strangely!"
Lin Leyou nodded, "This BOSS doesn't look like a BOSS in an A-level dungeon; it might even be comparable to a BOSS in an S-level dungeon."
Jiang Xiali frowned slightly. "It's probably related to Lin Wanyi's mission. Let's not worry about it."
Just then, some strange bird calls came from the distant sky, and soon about a hundred huge strange birds flew over, constantly flying around in the sky and attacking the monster's tentacles that were flying everywhere!
These strange birds are also intelligent; they don't attack indiscriminately. Instead, they fly upwards once they've reached a height where they can strike in one blow, and then attack the monsters below as much as possible while escaping the tentacles' attack range.
This monster has eight tentacles on its back, but its body below is like a snail's, without limbs, so it can't jump!
The snail moves very slowly, but the monster is huge! That's why the players who ran ahead were able to escape.
