Qin Jiu had a guess in his mind about the mysterious murderous monster.
She was quite familiar with this secret place and knew that there were no large snake monsters here.
The only possibility is the player.
That player may have swallowed a snake spirit bead and has developed snake-like characteristics. For some unknown reason, he went crazy and killed people.
Or maybe he doesn't need a reason to kill.
But no matter what, the existence of such a time bomb in the secret realm is extremely dangerous for other players.
When she first entered the secret realm, she set the departure time to one day. Now, it has only been a few hours and the players are still unable to leave the secret realm.
The only option is to gather the players together first. Firstly, it is safer, and secondly, it can also help to find out who the murderer is.
Qin Jiu sent a message in the group: "@All members, everyone, return to the starting point and gather immediately! You must travel together!"
The players' hearts instantly rose to their throats.
Qingqing wanted to get rich quickly: "It seems like something really big has happened! Even the team leader feels it's a difficult situation."
Grapefruit Cake: "So who's causing this trouble? The monsters or the players?"
The most honest person in Pinocchio: "Okay, let's go back to the starting point now!"
Magnolia likes to be polite: "What happened? Didn't the leader catch the monster?"
Liquor-soaked sorrow: "It's not a monster. Initial speculation is that it's a player who swallowed a snake spirit bead. He's already brutally murdered an entire team and is nowhere to be found. So everyone must take this seriously. Don't take any chances. Return to the starting point immediately!"
Teleportation items are prohibited in the secret realm, so players cannot use teleportation cards and can only rely on their legs.
The biggest advantage of this group of players is that they listen to advice. Once they hear this, they rush to the starting point, focusing on cherishing their lives.
But several hours had passed, and some teams were far away from the starting point, so it would take time to get back.
At this moment, another team of players was killed. They didn't even have time to send a message for help before they died.
If someone hadn't been paying attention to the number of people in the group chat, no one would have known that someone else had been killed.
At this time, an atmosphere of panic spread throughout the secret realm.
Qin Jiu knew that she could not control the development of the situation by her own strength, so she immediately contacted Meng Qingyin and told her about it.
After hearing the whole story, Meng Qingyin asked Qin Jiu to pull her into the secret realm.
Under normal circumstances, Meng Qingyin would not be able to enter the secret realm, but now six people have died, so there are six extra spaces, so Meng Qingyin was able to enter.
Qin Jiu also wanted to bring Chen Leying and the others in. After all, one more person might be able to kill an entire team.
But they couldn't get out of other secret realms, and even if they knew, they couldn't get here in time. They could only worry about it, so Qin Jiu had to give up and not tell them.
Since it was Qin Jiu who pulled Meng Qingyin into the secret realm, Meng Qingyin landed next to Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu handed the scale to Meng Qingyin: "I found this in Qingtian Xiaoyu's hands. It should be left by the player who swallowed the spirit pearl."
Meng Qingyin asked Zizi: "Zizi, try to see if you can smell this person's scent."
The cub leaned in close to the scales and sniffed, then retched, "What a stinky smell, but it feels a little familiar to me."
Qin Jiu: "Familiar? Could it be that Zizi has had contact with that person?"
Meng Qingyin asked, "Did anyone see what that person looked like? Are you sure he swallowed the spirit pearl?"
Qin Jiu: "The person who saw his appearance is dead, but she said that the upper body of the man was human and the lower body was a snake. I remember Zhou Tao also slowly turned into a snake in this way, right?"
"If he swallowed the snake spirit bead, why would he suck the player's blood? Snakes don't have such characteristics." This is what Meng Qingyin was puzzled about.
This is also what Qin Jiu doesn't understand: "Perhaps his goal is to kill the player, and sucking blood is just his means?"
At this moment, Zizi suddenly said, "I know! I know when I smelled that smell before! The woman who turned into a snake had this disgusting smell!"
Qin Jiu speculated: "Could it be that people who swallowed snake spirit beads would have this taste?"
Zizi shook his head: "No! Everyone has a different scent, I can tell the difference. This scent must have been accidentally rubbed against that snake woman. It smells like someone else entirely."
Meng Qingyin suddenly remembered that she and Zhou Tao mentioned a person in their conversation, a man named Feng Yiming.
"Zizi, take me to find that person first." Meng Qingyin said.
Who that person is will be revealed once we find him.
The most urgent task is to catch that person quickly to prevent him from killing more players.
Zizi followed the smell and brought Meng Qingyin and Qin Jiu to a river.
The cub lowered its head and sniffed around the riverbank. After a moment, it looked up and said, "Master, the smell has disappeared around here."
Meng Qingyin looked at the river. The river was so clear that you could see the bottom. The water was about one meter deep, and everything in the river was visible.
"It seems that he guessed that we were looking for him, and deliberately used the river water to hide his tracks." Meng Qingyin said.
Qin Jiu was a little anxious: "How can I find him now?"
Meng Qingyin: "His presence disappeared here, which means he disappeared into the river and didn't come ashore. Let's split up and look for him. I'll go downstream and you go upstream."
Qin Jiu nodded and walked upstream.
Meng Qingyin took her cub and continued searching downstream.
While the two were searching, players from several more teams were killed.
Seeing the number of people in the group decreasing, Qin Jiu gritted his teeth and quickened his pace of searching.
But there were no traces of him anywhere.
Just then, the sound of messy footsteps came from the distance.
Qin Jiu looked up and saw three players staggering towards him. They had wounds of varying depths on their bodies and looked in a miserable state.
Qin Jiu immediately went over and supported one of the most seriously injured female players: "Are you all okay?"
"Team leader!" The female player grabbed Qin Jiu's arm tightly, her voice anxious, "Two girls came to save us... please go and save them!"
"Two girls?" Qin Jiu's face turned pale, and he hurried over after saying "Send the location to Meng Meng".
When Qin Jiu arrived, Feng Yiming was tightly wrapping his snake tail around two female players.
Their bodies were deformed by the huge force and they were already dead.
And those two girls were Chengzi and Tan Yue!
At this moment, they had no life left and were tightly entangled by the snake's tail like toys.
