Chapter 306: Monster Nest Island
The air on the beach was slightly condensed.
Mu Feng held the summoning box, frowned and stared at Xu Xiaohua who was carrying the iron bucket, muttering to himself.
Based on her impression of Xu Zhiyan, he was stingy and money-loving. Now that such an expensive prop had been snatched away from him, how could he be so calm?
Looking at Xu Xiaohua running towards him with the prop box in her hand, Mu Feng became eager to move again.
Xu Zhiyan was also puzzled.
The opponent's ability should be to steal the props he is wearing. When the wind blows, he has a magic hat in his hand, the Immaculate Virgin Mary hanging around his neck, and a human-skin Buddha heart-protecting mirror hidden in his clothes, not to mention some miscellaneous low-level defensive props.
Even if the other party does not recognize the SS-level dual-attribute Immaculate Mother, the Human Skin Buddha and the Magic Hat are both excellent choices.
Why steal a rice bucket?
Did these two thieves have their brains stuck in the door?
However, Xu Xiaohua had already rushed to Mu Feng.
It put the iron bucket on the ground, lifted its little skirt and saluted the two people who stole its box.
"Hello, godfather and godmother!"
It's sweet and no one would associate it with the monster that just swallowed the rabbit alive just by looking at its appearance.
The little girl's well-behaved appearance made Mu Feng's heart beat faster. Since entering the game, she rarely saw such a cute little girl.
Xu Zhiyan took the opportunity to speak.
"I know it's hard to kill you."
It's not that he has no means to get the box back, but facing a player who can control the wind, he needs to use at least one A-level or above blocking item to stop the opponent.
"This time I am not as skilled as you, so I won't be angry if you take the summoning box away."
If something else was stolen, that would be a different story.
"I want to know why you guys want to snatch Xu Xiaohua."
He racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.
However, this did not prevent him from arranging Xu Xiaohua to go there as soon as the summoning box was stolen, for fear that the other party would discover the problem and no longer want it.
Mu Feng was very surprised.
She rarely encountered people who had been robbed and could remain so emotionally stable, but seeing that Xu Zhiyan calmly said he would not pursue the matter, she didn't mind saying a few more words.
"A bounty on the black market. Someone is offering six million credits to buy this little monster alive."
This is the main reason why Mu Feng chose to steal Xu Xiaohua.
If Xu Zhiyan spending 10 million to customize a monster from a safe house was an act of injustice and everyone just watched it as a joke, then when the second person offered 6 million points to buy the monster, others would stop laughing and start reflecting.
A humanoid monster with intelligence and the ability to grow...
Coupled with the power that Xu Xiaohua had shown before, it became even more mysterious.
Mu Feng has made a good calculation.
Whether you take the monster away to exchange for money or control the monster for your own use, it is a perfect choice and a sure win.
Xu Zhiyan immediately understood Mu Feng’s intention.
The magic hat is only for survival copies, and the human skin Buddha requires evil offerings. Even though these two props are good, the price of a single one will definitely not exceed six million points.
This allowed Xu Zhiyan to figure out the skills of these two people, and it was likely that they could only steal a single item each time.
But speaking of it, which idiot has a six million bounty on the black market...
Is Xu Xiaohua worth so much money?
Isn't this just pure brain disease?
Seeing the little girl immediately change her tone and become sweet and soft, Xu Zhiyan felt a little pity in his heart. Of course, not for Xu Xiaohua, but for Mu Feng and Tang Run.
"Okay, in that case, let's say goodbye?" He took two steps back.
Worried that the goods would be returned in the afternoon after being sent out in the morning, Xu Zhiyan added hesitantly: "This is a survival copy, it also needs to eat, um, a lot."
Don’t blame him for not telling you when you return the goods!
"Don't worry about that, Boss."
Mu Feng also saw the previous prompt, but she came here because of the hunger state.
"We used to occasionally capture some monsters to sell, and this was not a problem for us at all."
Among all the copies, only the monsters in the survival copy are the easiest to control. As long as the monsters' appetite is satisfied, they will not care who the original owner is.
Only when it is hungry can this expensive humanoid monster be better tamed.
"We will feed it well, and what happens in the future will have nothing to do with Boss Xu." Mu Feng smiled confidently. She bent down and touched Xu Xiaohua's head with a burning look in her eyes.
At this moment, she didn't know how unique Xu Xiaohua's hunger was.
Xu Zhiyan's mind was filled with the words "feed them well". What thief? At this moment, these two were like living Bodhisattvas in his eyes!
"It's a deal!"
The theft is over and both the thief and the victim are satisfied.
Mu Feng wanted to say something when he saw Xu Zhiyan had retreated dozens of meters and was ready to run away at any time.
...What the hell, why is the other party more like a thief compared to them?
During the conversation, Xu Zhiyan had retreated to the dilapidated ring road around the island, summoned his pink electric scooter, and waved from afar to Xu Xiaohua and the others.
"Good boy, you must listen to your godfather and godmother in the future. If it doesn't work, come back to me."
After saying that, he got on his electric scooter and rode away.
At the same place, Xu Xiaohua waved her big iron bucket and answered loudly at Xu Zhiyan's departing back.
"Okay, Dad! Don't worry, Dad!"
This scene of loving father and filial son gives people a feeling of left-behind children being entrusted to others for care.
After Xu Xiaohua finished shouting, she turned around and tugged at the corner of Mu Feng's clothes affectionately: "Godmother, when are we going to eat? I'm a little hungry."
Mu Feng hadn't noticed Xu Xiaohua's hunger yet.
In the live broadcast room, the audience who watched the whole process laughed until they crowed.
[@Falling Moon Guild, are you sending any funny players this time? ]
[No, the one sent must be a big enemy, hahahaha]
[I am almost dying of laughter. I am in the bathroom and I am laughing so hard that my [beep——] is broken.]
[So who is offering the 6 million points reward? ]
[Honestly, emotionally I think it was unlucky for Xiao Baiwan to be stolen, but Mu Feng stealing the bottomless pit is more sympathetic hahahaha]
[I feel relieved. These two have stolen things from me before! ]
[Hahahahahahahahahahahaha, I just got back, and after Mu Feng saw Xu Xiaohua's panel, his expression became ferocious.]
【[Screenshot.jpg]】
In the picture, Mu Feng and Tang Run seemed to be checking Xu Xiaohua's detailed panel to consider how much to feed accurately.
But this time they were obviously in big trouble, and Mu Feng's eyes almost popped out.
All this has nothing to do with Xu Zhiyan who ran away.
He had seen Xu Xiaohua's power. She was already very strong before she lost control. After she lost control, it was no big deal for her to beat a few players. Compared with Xu Xiaohua's safety, he was more worried about Mu Feng and Tang Run.
"Oh, I hope they can hold on for a few more days."
The feeding frequency is once every ten minutes, and 60 kilograms of food is consumed in one hour. Xu Xiaohua does not need to sleep, which means that she needs to be fed 24 hours a day...
Hiss, it’s scary just thinking about it.
After speeding for more than ten minutes, this section of the dilapidated ring road around the island came to an end.
After making sure that Mu Feng and the others would not catch up and return the goods immediately, Xu Zhiyan was finally able to stop the electric scooter and take a good look around.
The scene here was very similar to the tropical islands he had seen in movies before. If the surrounding plants were not so strange, it might be more suitable for tourism.
The clothes soaked by sea water were dried by the wind during the journey and became a little hard, making them very uncomfortable to wear.
Xu Zhiyan took off his shirt and rubbed it on his hands. After hesitating for a moment, he put it on reluctantly. Now there was no fresh water and all the supplies were useless. If he got sunburned, he would be the one who suffered.
A glance at the fruits hanging from the coconut trees dampened his nascent appetite.
A cluster of round fruits hangs on the tree.
This tree has the same leaves as the coconut tree, but the fruits it bears look like dead green human heads.
Forget it, let’s just keep going in the direction of slicing.
He packed up his car and sighed.
I sent two messages to Jiang Huaique, but received no reply.
Xu Zhiyan was a little hesitant between continuing to walk along the beach and entering the jungle.
Fortunately, he won't have to make a decision soon.
A sudden and strange gravity pressure appeared, and Xu Zhiyan staggered and almost kneeled down, and his whole body fell down as if filled with lead.
A light-colored protective shield appeared and was crushed into pieces by gravity in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, the whole process only took a moment.
Xu Zhiyan stood firm by holding onto the tree trunk, frowning and looking around.
What the hell?
His low-level protective shield was directly crushed!
Before he could find the enemy, he saw the little Brittle Bone that he had just summoned beside him, pointing at the sea level in the distance, jumping up and down anxiously.
"how?"
Xu Zhiyan frowned and looked in the direction that Xiaocuigu pointed. He saw a white wall-like object appearing in the distance on the sea. Unfortunately, it was too far away to see clearly.
He stared for a few seconds and his expression suddenly changed.
It's... a tsunami?!
"Fuck, go first!"
Without saying anything more, Xu Zhiyan took Xiao Ke Gu and ran towards the island jungle.
He was not a professional and was not sure how high the tsunami coming from afar was, but the main system had been out of order for years, so who knew how high the tsunami would be.
This time, Xu Zhiyan wronged the main system.
Around the central area of Strange Nest Island, the Jianghuai Partridge hid in a short tree, holding its breath and concentrating, not daring to make any sound for fear of being seen.
Even after experiencing a large-scale attack, with blood slowly flowing out of his eye sockets, nose, ears, and mouth, he did not move an inch.
In the distance, the culprit who caused the tsunami stood in an open space.
“I didn’t expect to meet four of them at once.”
Cen Jinyue squinted her eyes and smiled, her tone very relaxed.
It’s a pity that his opponent wasn’t too easy.
The Joker stood straight.
He was severely injured in the first round of gravity superposition attack, and blood kept oozing out from the corners of his mouth.
Behind him, a gap slowly appeared in the semicircle woven by vines, and a woman wrapped in bandages could be vaguely seen through the gap between the trees.
If Xu Zhiyan were here, he would recognize at a glance that this person was Dou Hongshan, whom he had seen in the dark alley.
There are people who are more unlucky than both of them.
On Cen Jinyue's left hand side, there were two pools of blood and flesh, and a few teeth scattered on the ground, indicating that they were still in human form a few seconds ago.
"You guys are able to handle stress better than I thought."
Cen Jinyue crossed her arms and made comments to the two people who were still gasping for breath.
He was dressed appropriately, in a white sports suit, with a crescent-shaped earring on his ear bone. Even his shoes were not splattered with blood. His tone and expression did not sound like someone who had just killed someone. Instead, he sounded more like a college student on a spring outing.
Seeing that the clown and the woman controlling the vines didn't say anything, Cen Jinyue picked her nails out of boredom.
"I'm a little hungry. I have to find something to eat when this is over."
No matter how powerful a player is, he will be forced into a state of hunger, and Cen Jinyue is no exception.
He frowned and thought for a while, as if he had come up with a brilliant idea, and said to the clown: "Are you unable to move? It doesn't matter, let's play a game. I will remove your gravity state and give you ten seconds to run."
Holding up a finger, he winked.
"If you can help me hunt an edible prey, I will let you live for an extra hour."
At this time, Jiang Huaique, who was hiding aside, realized that the clown had not made any move, not because he did not want to attack, but because he could not attack.
He couldn't imagine what the two people standing in front of Cen Jinyue were going through.
Absolute power suppression.
As a veteran and powerful player in the game, there is a huge gap between Yue Shen and the newly promoted Joker who is ranked tenth.
The damage from the impact alone was enough to cause Jiang Huaique to suffer internal injuries. He didn't even dare to take any extra steps to open the guild panel to send a message to his teammates, for fear of being discovered.
He knew he should leave.
Two players have already died just after entering the dungeon. Judging from Cen Jinyue's tone, it seems that she wants to kill all the players.
A sense of crisis came over me.
Jiang Huaique wiped the blood off his face and slowly backed away.
It is still uncertain what the range of Cen Jinyue’s perception is, so he has to move further away.
I thought so in my heart.
Jiang Huai Que couldn't help but look towards where the clown was.
Do you want to save?
As he was hesitating, he received new message from his teammates.
[Xu Zhiyan: What's going on? Dou Hongshan transferred 100,000 points to me. Um, Jiang Jiang, you don't seem to know her. She is a teammate of the Joker. If you meet her, please ask her if she needs any help.]
【Xu Zhiyan: Oh, there’s a tsunami in the distance, take it easy.】
“…”
Jiang Huaique was stunned.
Damn it, how could he forget that the Joker has a payment card for changing one's fate with krypton gold? Now he has to be saved!
Thinking this in his mind, the expression on Jiang Huaique's face was no longer conflicted. He retreated a distance to the side, took out a longbow from his bag, and slowly pulled the bow.
In a way, this suits him just fine.
…
Xu Zhiyan didn't know what his teammates were going through.
He and Little Gristle ran and climbed, and finally reached a high point before the tsunami hit. During the process, they encountered several disgusting monster plants.
He received a transfer for no apparent reason, and his mood improved a lot.
It turns out that money falling from the sky can cure everything!
After sitting on the rock and resting for a while, Xu Zhiyan looked at the waves rushing in from a distance and couldn't help licking his dry lips.
The starvation state made him thirsty and hungry.
Xu Xiaohua can eat a rabbit alive, but he can't.
Hiding in the shadows, he cast an envious look at Little Keibous.
Undead is just good.
There is no other disadvantage except that it is a little skinny.
Suddenly, Little Gristle began to shake its arms wildly, as if it wanted Xu Zhiyan to come over... Since it could not use other supplies, its writing board could not be used either.
Not having rested enough, Xu Zhiyan stood up with great effort.
"It's so annoying without a writing board—"
When he walked in front of Xiao Ke Gu, the rest of his words got stuck in his mouth and he couldn't say them.
Little Gristle was very excited and scratched some words on the ground with a stone.
[Master (crossed out), Brother Xu! There should be fresh water in here!]
In a survival copy, you have to deal with survival first before talking about other things.
Before my eyes was the ruins of a small town.
It looks like it has been abandoned for some time.
Xu Zhiyan nodded. His waist and legs no longer hurt, and he walked with a breeze under his feet.
Although he has a magic hat that can kill rabbits and bleed them, he is not a barbarian after all. If conditions permit, he would like to retain some of the dignity of a modern man. If he can avoid drinking blood, it would definitely be better.
Wherever there are people, there must be a source of fresh water.
The abandoned town is not too big.
Standing at the door, you can see the end at a glance.
After stepping into the gate of the town, a strange feeling of chillness appeared. It was broad daylight and the sun was shining directly, but Xu Zhiyan felt a chill on his back.
No matter how hard you try to find a water source, you can't act rashly.
Xu Zhiyan slowed down and carefully observed the surrounding buildings. The houses had been in disrepair and corroded by wind and sand, and almost every one of them was crumbling.
After accidentally stepping on a wooden plank, causing an entire building to collapse, he calmed down and muttered.
"I thought I could find a place to rest..."
These are all dangerous buildings, what the hell is this?
After making sure that the surrounding wooden houses were unusable and that going inside would even require the use of defensive items, Xu Zhiyan did not hesitate any longer and walked straight towards the church at the end of the town.
The church is not big and is pure white. The small pointed bell tower and the cross at the door are out of place among the ruins.
So clean.
It seems as if time has not left any trace on it.
The obviously abnormal content aroused the audience's vigilance.
[Hey, is this a monster nest with an owner? Why does it look so similar?]
[I think Xiao Baiwan doesn't seem to be afraid at all? ]
[What is he afraid of? Is he afraid that the monster will stand up and ask him for money? ]
[That's right... The monsters in the center of the island were mostly wiped out by Moon Goddess's group skill. I feel like the monsters here aren't particularly strong.]
[The Moon God is the only monster on this island. ]
[Alas, I don’t know if Xiao Baiwan can leave alive this time. ]
[I think it’s difficult…]
The audience fell silent as they spoke.
If Cen Jinyue's idea is to kill all the players participating in the game in this round, then it will not be too difficult for him to achieve this goal, it just takes a little time.
Xu Zhiyan didn’t know yet that Cen Jinyue was in the copy.
He strode towards the church with Little Grit and pushed the door open.
It's not that he hadn't thought that this might be a monster's nest. On the way he encountered several caves that looked like monster's nests, but his idea was very simple.
According to the system description, the owner of the monster nest will not be very strong.
If there is a man-eating monster inside, kill it. If it is a monster you can get along with, squeeze it and then leave.
I didn't expect to be so lucky.
The moment the door was pushed open, the scene inside the church appeared before Xu Zhiyan's eyes.
At the end of the neatly arranged wooden seats, a priest in a black robe stood on the steps. The sunlight shone through the stained glass on the ceiling, shining on the young priest, making him look even more holy.
The man turned his head, still holding a thick book in his hands.
"Lost lamb, destiny has led you here."
It laughed.
If there was a statue of the Virgin Mary instead of a lewd demon sculpture behind it, no one would notice that there was anything wrong with it.
"Tell me, what do you need?"
Although it had a holy face, its deep, heavy voice echoed in the church, carrying a bewitching suggestion.
Xu Zhiyan stared at the familiar face for a few minutes.
"Father Bai, I need you."
He suppressed the excitement in his words.
The enthusiasm in his eyes was even hotter than the other person's, and it was hard to tell who was the poisoner.
