In horror works, when a monster appears, it is used to gain experience for the protagonists.
But what if a group of monsters appear.
So, except for very rare cases where we can see the protagonists showing their might and defeating monsters, in other cases, the protagonists can only be chased.
Moreover, when this situation occurs, there are often some supporting characters who will sacrifice their own lives to save the protagonist.
But the players have their own scripts.
As soon as the players discovered the group of faceless monsters, they immediately launched an attack on the opposite side.
In addition to the Qingxia Arrow, which is the most convenient to use, some players also used exorcism items that they found from nowhere.
For example, a string of rusty copper coins, after being thrown, hits the monster and then falls to the ground without making any sound. Obviously, the player who threw the coins bought a fake.
"Fuck, these copper coins are useless! Is this NPC trying to cheat me?!"
"You're not going to just throw it away, are you? Don't these kinds of props have specific ways of using them?"
“…Oh no, I forgot about this!!”
There was also a player holding a peach wood dagger, infused it with spiritual energy, and stabbed it at the faceless monster still bound to the ground.
But the dagger broke directly.
Obviously, it's still a fake.
"Fuck! I was really cheated! I even got this sword from the City God Temple! It cost me fifty taels of silver!"
"You still want to buy the real thing for fifty taels of silver?"
"Generally speaking, in the worldview of immortal cultivation, it's rare to see immortals walking in the mortal world. Obviously, this City God Temple was built by mortals for fun."
"What a loss, what a loss..."
The other player holding the lightning-struck wood infused spiritual energy into it and threw the lightning-struck wood like a grenade.
The charred piece of lightning-struck wood flashed with blue and white light and fell into the pile of faceless monsters. Then, there was a loud "bang" and accompanied by several strong arcs of electricity, it exploded in the group of monsters.
The three monsters were knocked to the ground by the violent impact, and then they lay directly on the ground, wriggling and continuing to approach the players.
Lightning wood is effective, but not particularly so.
Moreover, it seems that the method of using lightning-struck wood may be wrong.
The player who threw the lightning wood hesitated for a moment, took a step forward, and then retracted it.
Obviously, he wanted to pick up the lightning-struck wood.
However, this faceless monster that was gradually approaching was not so easy to break through.
Throwing lightning-struck wood is like throwing a meat bun at a dog.
"It's a pity that I, a cultivator of the eighth level of Qi Refining, can't even do telekinesis... Alas."
"No, you can't telekinetically? You haven't learned such a simple skill?"
"You can do it!? Big brother, help me pick up some lightning-struck wood!! Autumn pear paste!!"
"No problem!"
The player who spoke directly released the skill of taking objects from the air.
A force flew out from his hand, penetrated into the group of faceless monsters, and rushed straight towards the lightning-struck tree.
"Got it!"
The player who takes the object retracts his hand.
An object, like a hooked fish, flew back.
"Depend on!!"
Then, they both cursed.
Because the thing that was taken from the air turned out to be the head of the faceless monster with tentacles growing out of it!!!
"Throw it out!! Don't pull it in!!"
"Fuck, how did you lose it!?"
"Don't you know how to telekinetically?"
"Retrieving something is one thing, but throwing it away is another skill!!"
The two exchanged a few quick words before simultaneously moving out of the way, avoiding the flying head and letting it fall to the ground.
At the same time, the round of attack against the faceless monster also ended.
The effect is not obvious.
Players cannot see the health bar of the faceless monster and can only judge the damage caused by its status.
Although most of the attacks hit the faceless monster and caused significant damage, the faceless monster was still able to continue moving forward. Even if it was knocked down, it could still use the tentacles that grew from its body to slowly crawl.
Seeing this, the players made a quick decision and turned around and ran without any communication.
The only direction to escape was naturally the villages and towns behind.
Although I know that there is something wrong with this village, this is the only direction to escape.
After running in, the players also stopped and turned to look behind them.
"It's bad." Xie Xinchen slapped his thigh, "This faceless monster is driving us back to the village..."
Behind him, in the direction of the village entrance, there was only darkness, and there was no faceless monster left.
"It's a choice between the two. I can only go this way."
"You have to choose between dying now and dying later, right? Can I log off now?"
"Since we're here, why not explore a little?"
"Be careful, explore slowly. I've almost figured out the background story," Xiao Duan said. "This village was destroyed by a river bursting its banks. I'm guessing all the residents are dead. And then, for some reason, they turned into monsters..."
"Is it possible that these villagers were originally monsters, and the river bursting was a divine punishment?"
"Or is there an old monster hiding here, controlling the corpses of these villagers, luring us in, and then turning us into monsters too?"
"You'd be wasting your talents if you didn't write novels..."
While chatting, the players began to move deeper into the village.
The riverbank was originally pitch black, with no light source other than the bonfires lit by the players. But after entering the village, the players discovered that the moonlight in the sky could actually illuminate the surrounding environment!
