Chapter 422
Using the weak as scapegoats is a "fine tradition" among veteran gamers.
The girl who was pushed away clutched her arm, watching in horror as her companions ruthlessly abandoned her and ran away, while the insectoids, stimulated by the smell of blood, swarmed towards her.
No, she doesn't want to die, and she can't die.
The girl threw a fireball to block the insectoids and ran frantically forward.
But the smell of blood attracted more and more insectoids. Some of these bizarre monsters were crawling on the ground, while others were climbing on the walls and ceilings. Although they had human faces, their eyes and smiles were disgusting and terrifying.
Her powers and items were exhausted, and she could only watch helplessly as the monsters surged toward her.
She knew that with her current strength, going into such a large-scale dungeon would be suicide.
But she had no choice. Her younger sister was still so young, and she didn't have enough points to exchange for survival time. If she entered the dungeon, she would only be going to her death.
The girl was afraid of dying, but she was even more worried about her five-year-old sister...
As the Zerg swarmed towards her, she instinctively closed her eyes in fear.
However, she did not feel any pain; instead, she heard a chilling scream, followed by a series of slapping sounds.
A cold liquid splashed onto her face, and the girl's heart nearly stopped beating.
She opened her eyes trembling, and the scene that greeted her was like something out of a horror movie.
She would have screamed if she hadn't covered her mouth tightly.
The walls and ceiling were covered in crimson bloodstains, and the insectoids on the ground were all broken into pieces; disgustingly, they were still wriggling on the ground.
However, to the girl's shock, the Zerg, which could previously be reassembled after being cut into several pieces, could not be put back together at this time.
After an unknown amount of time, the writhing body parts froze and then could no longer move.
The game's special effects flashed, the body parts disappeared, leaving only white, insect-egg-like things.
The girl was still sitting there, stunned. The Zerg were dead just like that?
Aren't they invincible, only afraid of fire?
"Little Red, can't you always stop making things so bloody? Your master is going to be scared to death by you sooner or later."
"Ugh, the Zerg are so disgusting and scary!"
"Waaaaah, 01 isn't here, no one's comforting me, my heart is broken."
The girl's soft, melancholic soliloquy echoed in the empty corridor, carrying a chilling, eerie quality.
Ta-da-da~
It was the sound of high heels clicking on the floor tiles, like the entrance of a big boss in a horror movie.
They must be in a battle royale game, right?
The girl was trembling.
A girl in a light pink gauze dress walked out from around the corner. The hazy moonlight fell on her, making her look like a little fairy from the moon palace, clean and beautiful.
Looking at her, who could believe that this city has fallen into apocalypse?
Wow, the horror movie instantly turned into a romance!
The girl's fair fingers touched the red rope wrapped around her wrist. "Go pick up the things on the ground for me."
The red rope twisted, as if to tell its owner: it is truly powerless.
The girl snorted in dissatisfaction, "I asked you to figure out how to create a flame for yourself, but you couldn't do that to burn those insectoids. Now you can't even pick up the loot dropped by monsters. What use are you?"
Red Rope: "..." Master, are you really so unreasonable?
Little Jin, standing to the side with its hands on its hips (I don't know where it got the hips from), laughed loudly: "That dog leash has finally gotten its comeuppance."
Hehe, it can't be the only one suffering from its owner's torment!
Red Rope: I want to eat butterflies!
Little Jin flapped its wings angrily: You dog leash, keep dreaming!
The girl stared at the insect eggs on the ground, her delicate face scrunched up in disgust. "So dirty."
But this is also points.
Silly Butterfly said that insect eggs are much more valuable than zombie crystal cores, and you might not even be able to buy one for a thousand points on the black market.
How could Wen Xin, burdened with a debt of 100 million yuan, not be tempted?
But the thought of collecting insect eggs sent chills down her spine.
"My benefactor!!!"
The girl snapped out of her daze and exclaimed in surprise.
Wen Xin seemed to only then notice that there was another player present.
She looked up and saw the girl nervously wiping her dirty and disheveled face, stammering, "My benefactor, I... I was here a few nights ago..."
The girl tilted her head. "I haven't lost my memory. I remember you."
The girl scratched her head shyly, her eyes shining brightly. "I never expected to meet my savior again. You saved me once more."
Wen Xin: "My name is Wen Xin."
The term "benefactor" sounds a bit awkward.
The girl quickly replied, "My name is Mo Xiaoxiao. My benefactor... Miss Wen Xin also participated in the large-scale dungeon gathering!"
Large-scale game instances will only open if a certain number of players are reached, so players usually need to apply to gather in advance.
Wen Xin said slowly, "No."
Mo Xiaoxiao: "Huh?"
Wen Xin: "I was tricked into this by a scoundrel."
Mo Xiaoxiao: "???"
"Will you do me a favor?"
Wen Xin smiled at her, as delicate and beautiful as a spring flower, and no one could resist her.
Mo Xiaoxiao nodded dazedly, "You, you say."
...
“Miss Wen Xin, all the insect eggs are here.”
Mo Xiaoxiao handed a plastic bag to Wen Xin.
Wen Xin didn't take it. "Take two for yourself, thank you."
"No, no, it was just a small thing. You saved me, and I have no way to repay you. I can't take anything from you."
Mo Xiaoxiao said nervously that she already felt very guilty for taking a zombie crystal core from her benefactor last time.
How could she possibly covet her spoils?
Wen Xin glanced at her, but didn't press the matter. She casually put the plastic bag into her spatial bracelet and asked her casually, "What are you doing here?"
Mo Xiaoxiao told her about how she had come to the government building with veteran players from the Shenhui Guild to look for clues about the Insect Queen, and how they had pushed her out to distract the Insectoids.
"Divine Radiance Guild?"
Wen Xin's eyes flickered slightly. "Xu Xingshen is here too?"
Mo Xiaoxiao nodded.
Her benefactor caused a huge uproar when she first appeared in the base town, and her love-hate relationship with the highly anticipated new member of the Divine Radiance Guild became a hot topic on the forum.
These days, which player doesn't know them?
However, Mo Xiaoxiao did not dare to look down on her benefactor in the slightest just because she was a new player who had just left the beginner village.
What a joke! Someone who can gain the favor of Butler 01, and who somehow managed to kill Boss Zhao and escape the game's official investigation, must be a simple being.
Just the fact that this big shot could so easily kill the seemingly invincible Zerg was enough to fill Mo Xiaoxiao with awe.
Mo Xiaoxiao thought of something, "Miss Wen Xin, the person you mentioned who tricked you into the Donglin City instance wouldn't happen to be Xu Xingshen, would it?"
"Who else but him?"
