The giant took a step forward and punched the unlucky player closest to him to death.
Another punch knocked down a house that was in the way.
The players who were running down the mountain looked back worriedly, only to find that the giant was not chasing them. Instead, he turned around and headed towards the valley - where was Qingshan Village with a population of nearly a thousand.
The people living in Qingshan Village are basically the elderly, weak, women and children who have no fighting ability. The few men are also pale and thin, or missing limbs. After all, those who are strong and healthy will be dragged into the mountain stronghold to become bandits.
The giant seems to have no independent consciousness. Its instinct is to destroy and eliminate the creatures closest to it.
Qingshan Village, with its large population, naturally became its target.
"Is this... a massacre of the entire village?"
“Oh my god…”
"Run quickly, or we'll be gone soon."
The giant's stride frequency is comparable to that of a normal person, but the huge height difference makes one of his steps equivalent to more than ten steps of an ordinary person.
The villagers of Qingshan Village had never seen such a scene!
After several slow-reacting villagers were trampled to death by the giant, the rest ran towards the village screaming.
However, the giants' means of attack are not limited to punching and kicking.
The deformed flesh and blood part of its body differentiated into a dozen whip-like soft thorns. These soft thorns, like snakes, scurried into the house, pierced any living creatures they sniffed, pulled them out, and sent them into the deformed mouth of the giant.
The originally peaceful mountain village was now filled with cries and screams of despair.
In this cruel era, knowledgeable residents may have already imagined such an experience.
Meng Qi stood aside with mixed feelings.
After he ran a few steps, he was stopped by the screams and the sound of collapsed buildings behind him.
As a people's policeman, his mentality was actually shocked at this moment.
Protect people's lives and property, stop crime...
In real life, Meng Qi can do it without any pressure.
But in this holographic game, he actually wavered.
As a player, Meng Qi could of course just leave.
After all, he is no match for the giant.
But this game is too real.
Those villagers were clearly just NPCs, mere statistics, yet their reactions were nearly identical to those of ordinary people. Just watching them was too much for Meng Qi to bear, let alone running away.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Meng Qi made up his mind.
Fuck your game!
Meng Qi gripped the steel knife tightly and rushed back towards Qingshan Village, shouting as he rushed, trying to attract the giant's attention.
His heart was beating fast and his mind was filled with adrenaline.
Why should I be afraid of him? I can be resurrected anyway!
Meng Qi chased the giant to his feet, held the knife in both hands, and chopped it hard on the soft thorn.
One knife!
One knife!
One knife!
A soft thorn was cut off, and scarlet thick water spurted out from the broken part. The fallen soft thorn twisted on the ground.
The giant noticed the ant at his feet, raised his foot and stepped on it.
Meng Qi concentrated all his attention, predicting the landing point of the giant foot, and accelerated to jump, falling outside the range of the footprint.
But a few soft thorns followed.
Meng Qi didn't have enough strength to get up in time, so he could only sigh silently.
You son of a bitch boss, I was only handsome for two seconds.
I felt lost, just like in Fall Guys, where someone stole the tail in the last two seconds of the fight.
But two figures in green suddenly jumped out from the side and stood in front of Meng Qi.
"This is my first time meeting this boss, I have to touch him at least once to make it worthwhile!"
"According to the plan, the more villagers protect, the greater the reward. There's no way they'll run away!"
Meng Qi didn't know their names, but he knew why they came.
As for whether he says one thing and means another, I don’t know.
After all, it was difficult for Meng Qi to honestly tell other players that he turned back simply because of his sense of justice and wanted to save these NPCs.
"This thing is definitely going to drop something good!" Meng Qi climbed up and picked up the steel knife. "Let's spread out, or it'll trample the three of us."
"Ouch!"
The three of them dispersed.
The giant's attention was completely drawn to the men in green. He used his fists, slaps, and soft thorns to try to swat the little flies at his feet to death.
But Meng Qi and the other two were obviously prepared, and the giant's attacks repeatedly failed.
The huge size of the body resulted in a precise descent.
However, the soft spikes that can attack accurately are difficult to cause damage to players holding steel knives and swords.
The number of players wearing dark green robes is still increasing.
The villagers of Qingshan Village were stunned.
They had never imagined that these green-clad men would come to fight this terrifying giant. They were the enemies who had killed their sons or husbands, or the benefactors who had killed their enemies, and the culprits who had disrupted their "peaceful" lives.
In this chaotic world where demons are rampant, people can barely take care of themselves, let alone save others?
"What are you standing there for? Run!!"
A player was thrown in front of the villagers by the giant, left a word, and then was trampled into a pulp by the giant.
The villagers felt as if they were touched.
But that's all.
They could do nothing but run while feeling moved.
While those men in green can still hold back the giant monster, quickly escape from this dangerous place.
Whether you go to Bei'an City, to a nearby mountain village, or to a secluded place by the mountains or a river, in short, don't stay here.
