Chapter 341: Horror Night: Survival Instance (1/3/29)
The players were attacked by monsters from time to time. Jianshu wrote a word in the air with a brush and could easily stop the attacks by touching the dry bones.
Xu Jinxiao discovered it, and he couldn't hide his curious eyes.
[The host can use this brush to write a word and tap it on the target to make the target perform an action. Simple actions include running, walking, stopping, jumping, etc. Use it 30 times a day. More complex actions will decrease in difficulty as the number of times is used.]
Xu Jinxiao opened his eyes wide, and he had learned a lot! This strange thing was so convenient that he was really tempted.
Is it sold in shopping malls?
[Yes! No need for 998 or 888 points, just 16 points!]
The ball of thread refreshed immediately. It had seen this before. It had finally waited until the stingy host was going to buy something again, and it had to find it!
Xu Jinxiao didn't know what it was thinking. He looked at the attentive system and smiled with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with its attitude.
It refreshed quickly, Xu Jinxiao closed his eyes and entered, and bought the same one.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for a successful purchase. You have unlocked the spending points achievement and will receive 200 points back. Total points: 534]
Xu Jinxiao was shocked. This was his first time! But he vaguely remembered that the system said there was no other way to earn points.
[What's going on? This broadcast is automatic. Has the main system changed its strategy again?]
The ball was also surprised. It suddenly increased by 200 points. You know, they only earned 400 points by completing a small world!
"That's very nice!"
Xu Jinxiao opened his mouth and shouted excitedly, and the other players turned their heads to look at him in horror.
"Well, I checked the time. It's already 12:25. There are only ten minutes left before it ends."
Xu Jinxiao cleverly raised his hand to look at his watch and encouraged everyone.
"Indeed, it's the last ten minutes, everyone hold on."
Wen Ze took the spinning blade in his hand and cut off a dry bone cleanly and efficiently.
Suddenly, the light above my head began to flicker again. I wonder what the copy is planning to do next.
I saw a lot of hair appearing in the pool of blood, slowly rising, and ugly and rotten faces appeared, with maggots wriggling on the rotten flesh.
They were all facing the players. Xu Jinxiao counted them and there were twenty of them.
The next moment, they dived into the pool and disappeared from where they came from.
The players became even more panicked, they must be coming from under the pool.
I had no choice but to dive into the pool wearing goggles. I didn't want to enter the pool at first because the fishy smell was too strong, but I had to go in now.
A dagger appeared in Xu Jinxiao's hand. Lu Qing had no weapon, so Xu Jinxiao took out two strange objects he had picked up in the copy before and gave them to him, and asked him to stay by his side and he would protect him.
Lu Qing looked at Xu Jinxiao beside him who only had a dagger, while the others had weapons. He also wanted to help, but there was nothing he could do.
As expected, the monsters came charging towards them, but because the blood pool was extremely opaque, they could only be discovered when they got close.
The pictures rotting in the pool of blood are even more terrifying. Most of the eye sockets are empty, maggots are flying in and out, the rotten flesh is turned inside out, and the equally dirty bones are exposed, testing the players' psychological defenses.
The monster stretched out its sharp claws and attacked them. Its sharp claws were extremely fast and it was close to them in the blink of an eye.
The players each fended off the counterattacks and fought against them in the blood pool.
Xu Jinxiao skillfully used the dagger to block, and his technique was excellent. He was able to handle the siege of three monsters with ease.
Lu Qing watched from behind him, secretly admiring Xu Jinxiao's strength.
If a dagger can be used so powerfully, other weapons are probably even more powerful.
Xu Jinxiao didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise he would be embarrassed, because the dagger was the first weapon he obtained and he used it the most, so he must be proficient in it. But it would not be certain if he changed to other weapons.
Lu Qing was dazzled watching him from behind, and secretly memorized his moves in his heart.
The players fought fiercely in the blood pool, and soon, all twenty monsters were wiped out.
Several people floated to the surface of the pool, their heads and faces covered in blood. They wiped it off casually and looked at the surface of the pool.
There was nothing on the surface of the pool, only blood surging.
Xu Jinxiao looked at the time and there were only five minutes left.
At this moment, something unexpected happened again and the surface of the pool began to surge violently.
The players clung to the ladders to prevent themselves from being sucked in.
As the blood pool surged, ripples gradually formed, rotating in one direction around the center of the pool.
At this time, the surging force also weakened. The players steadied themselves, looked at the surface of the pool, and guessed what would happen next.
The next second, the rotation speed increased, and a small hole gradually formed in the center of the pool.
The players understood from this that a vortex was about to form in the center of the blood pool!
The blood around him flowed along the vortex, but the blood level did not drop.
The players looked at the whirlpool that was still in its infancy and were already trying to figure out how to stabilize themselves. Being sucked into it would definitely be tragic.
Xu Jinxiao closed his eyes and entered the space. He only had a dagger now, so he looked around to see if there was anything useful in the mall.
He quickly walked to the counter and scanned it. A black chain in the corner caught his attention. This could be useful.
"Ball of Thread, what's the use of this chain?"
Xu Jinxiao squatted down and looked at the points on the chain. 20 points was quite expensive.
[Host, it can be used to bind monsters. Currently, it can only bind 3 at a time. It is a growing monster and can devour monsters to upgrade!]
Xu Jinxiao was delighted when he heard this. A growing monster? He could even upgrade! This was it, it was definitely worth it.
“Buy it!”
Xu Jinxiao slapped his thigh.
【good! 】
As soon as the ball finished speaking, a one-meter-long chain appeared in front of Xu Jinxiao. It was pitch black, with a smooth surface, and exuded a cold air.
"It's a bit short, but it's barely enough."
[Host, don't be disappointed. It will get longer and longer as you upgrade~ It's very useful! ]
Xu Jinxiao nodded. With his clever mind, he must have guessed it.
He opened his eyes and looked towards the pool of blood, still slowly increasing his speed.
The hole in the center of the pool grew larger and larger, and the blood flow around them became faster and faster, causing their bodies to move uncontrollably towards the center.
However, they held on to the ladder tightly and were able to stabilize themselves at the entrance of the swimming pool.
However, the speed was getting faster and faster, and it was useless for them to pull the ladder from behind, as the ladder would definitely be pulled away.
In the peripheral vision, a figure stood motionless, with a head of red hair that was extremely conspicuous.
Xu Jinxiao turned her head and saw that the male partner's sharp nails were deeply embedded in the wall of the swimming pool, and his body was motionless.
Xu Jinxiao fell silent and turned his head away. Although it was indeed very useful, he did not want to mutate.
Xu Jinxiao held a dagger in his right hand and a chain in his left hand. The chain should be of good hardness. Anything produced by the system must be of high quality, and this mysterious dagger is even more so.
Xu Jinxiao passed the dagger through the gap in the chain, and then nailed the dagger firmly to the wall of the swimming pool.
He held the dagger and handed the other end of the chain to Lu Qing, asking him to pull the chain.
He held the dagger firmly to prevent it from being pulled off.
Wen Ze also inserted the spinning blade into the pool wall, holding it tightly with one hand and holding Qingyan with the other.
Zhao Ke and the other man looked at each other. They had no other strange things and could only pull the ladder.
The two looked at Xu Jinxiao for help, "Brother Xu..."
"Come here and pull it together with Lu Qing."
Xu Jinxiao understood immediately and asked them to come over.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Xu."
Zhao Ke swam to Lu Qing and pulled the chain as well.
Before Zhao Ke could be happy, the blood flow around him accelerated, and the dagger that Xu Jinxiao fixed looked thin and a little old. He couldn't help but worry.
"Brother Xu, it won't break, right?"
Xu Jinxiao tightened his grip on the dagger and shook his head, "No."
It’s obvious that this dagger is no ordinary object. It has been able to fight against very strong zombies before.
Wen Ze turned his head to look at Xu Jinxiao's dagger after hearing this, not quite believing what he said, "It does look a bit frail, why don't you, Zhao Ke, come and hold me."
Although Zhao Ke wanted to trust Xu Jinxiao, the dagger was indeed a bit worn and small, and there were four of them. What if it didn't work...
So, considering the four of them, he turned and grabbed Wen Ze's arm.
Xu Jinxiao didn't say anything when he saw this. In fact, he could handle a few more people without any problem. He was extremely strong and more effective than the strongest screws, so fixing the dagger was certainly no problem.
As time passed, the blood flowed faster and faster in the pool, and the hole in the center of the pool became larger and larger, with a diameter of more than one meter.
Blood is already thick, and when it rotates like this, the flushing force is even greater, which is much more difficult than clear water. Players can only try their best to resist and avoid being sucked into it.
A huge vortex of blood quickly formed, and a cold wind seemed to whistle from the cavity in the middle, and faint strange cries could be heard from afar.
The scarlet blood flowed past them quickly and entered the whirlpool, flowing to an unknown place, but the blood level around them did not drop at all.
The vortex of blood not far away was extremely creepy, mixed with cold wind and strange screams.
The players' spirit values dropped rapidly. Xu Jinxiao looked at the time and saw that there were only 3 minutes left.
The vortex in the center of the pool was still forming, and the blood flow rate suddenly doubled, trying desperately to draw them into the vortex.
The players' bodies were tilted by inertia, washed by blood, and floated along the vortex of blood flow, but their hands still stubbornly grasped the fixed weapons, not daring to relax for a moment.
Xu Jinxiao held the dagger tightly and pushed it down a little deeper. The chain was straightened and made a trembling sound.
Wen Ze was not having a good time either. He held the spinning knife tightly in his right hand and Qingyan tightly in his left hand. His left arm was also being pinched hard by Zhao Ke.
In order to avoid being dragged into it, Zhao Ke held his arm tightly.
Wen Ze's forehead was covered in sweat from the pain, but he also expressed his understanding. He couldn't ask Zhao Ke to use less strength, otherwise he would definitely be swept into the whirlpool.
Helplessly, he could only endure it and persevere through gritted teeth.
Fortunately, the players were wearing smooth swimsuits, which had less resistance than other clothes, otherwise their situation would be even more difficult.
The male couple on the other side had several of his nails broken and green liquid flowed out, but it quickly solidified. He was also feeling uncomfortable and was also struggling to hold on.
In order to get out of the copy alive, he has become like this and must not fail.
The suction force in the vortex continued to increase, and the cold wind blowing from the hole became colder.
The players held on to their only hope tightly, praying that time would pass quickly.
"Crack"
There was another slight crack, and the pool wall where the dagger was inserted could no longer hold on, so he could only insert it in another position.
He took a deep breath, and with his other hand he struggled to reach the pool wall and held on tightly.
Although the vortex flow rate is constantly accelerating, there are still a few seconds when it is relatively slow.
There was no time to wait, the flow was getting faster and faster, he had to act immediately.
Seizing an opportunity, he suddenly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it hard to the other side.
Lu Qing and Jian Shu were so scared that their hearts almost jumped out of their throats. At that moment, they thought Xu Qiu was going to give up on them.
Xu Jinxiao turned around and looked at the two of them, apologizing, "I'm sorry, I scared you."
Lu Qing immediately shook his head, "No."
Jian Shu also spoke with difficulty: "Brother Xu, you have helped us so much. Even if you really give up on us, we will not complain."
The blood flow was getting faster and faster, and his physical strength was being consumed very quickly. He felt that he was almost exhausted and it was difficult for him to speak.
"Don't talk, save your energy."
Zhao Ke looked at him worriedly and reminded them loudly.
The players stopped talking. Xu Jinxiao looked at the time and saw that there were only two minutes left.
Wen Ze's forehead veins were bulging at this time. He also brought two people, but Zhao Ke was too big, and his hand holding the boomerang was almost numb.
Especially when Queen Zhao Ke grabbed his arm so tightly that his bones were almost crushed by him.
But for their safety, he could only endure it.
He really wanted to cry now. As a cold boy, he had never felt this way before, and even felt that having such a feeling was an insult to him. Now...
He really broke down!
I couldn't help but close my eyes, letting the tears wet my eyes, but I still stubbornly refused to cry.
Now he just hopes that time will pass quickly and end his pain soon.
Xu Jinxiao was right next to him and quickly noticed his stubbornness.
Seeing Wen Ze bearing humiliation and even having his eyelashes wet, he was shocked.
"Wen Ze, what's wrong with you?"
Wen Ze opened his eyes in panic, turned his head away so that he wouldn't see him, and said stubbornly, "It's okay."
"How can you be okay? Your hands are all black."
Xu Jinxiao glanced at his hand holding the boomerang. It was blue and black, which showed how much force he had used.
Xu Jinxiao sympathized with him for a second, "Zhao Ke, come here and grab the chain."
Zhao Ke also heard the conversation between the two and looked over hurriedly, taking a deep breath, "Wen Ze, you kid, please say something!"
He scolded, "If you keep going like this, even if we survive tonight, your hand will probably be crippled."
After saying this, he couldn't help but feel sad. Is it because of himself?
If it weren't for his huge body, Wen Ze wouldn't have had such a hard time.
For the first time, he hated his tall stature. He had thought it was fine before, but now in this situation, it would undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble for everyone.
"Zhao Ke, why are you still standing there? Come here."
Xu Jinxiao urged him, "If you don't hurry up, you won't have Wen Ze's hand anymore."
Zhao Ke looked at him with hope in his eyes, "Is it really possible?"
He turned his head and tried to look at Xu Jinxiao's hand, only to see that Xu Jinxiao's slender white hand was the same as before, just a little red, and the blue veins were also popping out, but it was much better than Wen Ze's.
"Okay, I'll be right there!"
Zhao Ke breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. He had been planning to let go and let them live.
