Mermaid Town
As the cheating mermaid approached, the players' faces turned pale.
At this time, they could only see lines of human-like figures gathering towards this side, and they could only see the outlines but not the details.
The walking movements of these mermaids are very strange. It is not a whole fish tail dragging on the ground, but two fish tails sliding on the ground like human legs.
So the sound produced is actually "swish" and "swish", but because the mermaid moves too fast, it becomes an uninterrupted "swish".
"What the hell..." A man with a scar on his face gasped, "Why are there two fish tails?"
Others had spotted it, too, but because the thick fog blurred the details, it did look like two fish tails dragging from the waist down.
Moreover, the two fish tails are asymmetrical, of different sizes, and extremely deformed.
Only Gu Lin could see clearly that it was not two fish tails, but one fish tail, which was split in half in the middle for some unknown reason.
"Oh my god, why are there so many?"
"W-What the hell is this?!"
“…”
Aren't mermaids supposed to stay in the water? Why are they running onto land? Are they still a group of mermaids?
Su Qiao felt his scalp tingling.
Although I can't see these monsters clearly, I can feel their threat.
Without thinking, she immediately grabbed Gu Lin and protected him in front of her.
Everyone could have escaped, except this little cub with short arms and legs.
The moment Gu Lin was pulled in front of Su Qiao, he noticed with his sharp eyes that an older brother next to him also reached out his hand to him, but he was standing closer to Su Qiao, so Su Qiao got there first.
Seeing Su Qiao protecting him, the older brother was obviously relieved.
Gu Lin tilted his head and glanced at him sideways.
The older brother was the boy who had scared Su Qiao before and was hugged by Su Qiao.
Seeing the little boy looking at him, the older brother, Lin Xingchi, also looked at him, smiled at him, and then stood next to Gu Lin and Su Qiao calmly.
Right here, a shrill scream came from the crowd.
"ah--"
The scream was quite short, and it was followed by a "bang", the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
When everyone realized what was going on, they held their breath in fear, and some players even cried.
Did any player die?
Under the cover of thick fog, no one could see clearly how the mermaid acted, and no one could see which player had fallen. Even before they could recognize who had fallen, a player had already died.
The dead player was standing in front of the scarred man. He was still in a daze and didn't have time to see what happened before the player suddenly fell to the ground in front of him.
"Hold……"
The scarred man was about to curse, but before he could say a word, a pale face suddenly appeared in front of him, less than a centimeter away from his face.
“…”
The scarred man suddenly shut his mouth and his pupils contracted unconsciously.
Because the distance was close, he could see clearly the face right in front of him.
The eyes on this face were only whites, which were covered with dense bubble bubbles. The long and dirty hair was scattered, covering part of the pale face.
The mouth covered by long hair slowly split open all the way to the ears. The mouth was pitch black and thick black mucus flowed out.
The scarred man was terrified.
He could even feel the other person's skin pressed against his face, emitting a hint of coldness, so cold that there was no trace of temperature, as if he had just been pulled out of an ice cave.
The scarred man's lips trembled for a long time, and he was so frightened that he couldn't even scream.
The next second, a long tongue quickly shot out and stuck to his head. The scarred man could even feel the cold and sticky touch, but for some reason, the long tongue suddenly retracted.
The mermaid in front of him suddenly turned around and ran away at an extremely fast speed.
Not only this mermaid, but other mermaids that were originally gathering towards the player also instantly changed direction and retreated away from the player.
Su Qiao hugged Gu Lin tightly, shaking uncontrollably.
Gu Lin took Xiaowo's small hand and patted the back of her hand soothingly.
"Don't be afraid, sister."
Gu Lin comforted her in a tender voice.
Su Qiao was stunned. She didn't expect that such a small little ball would actually comfort her, an adult. Isn't he afraid?
Or is he not afraid because the scene before him is beyond his understanding?
As a player fell to the ground, the originally thick black fog slowly dissipated and the light gradually became clearer.
At this time, the "rustling" sound was no longer approaching, but quickly moving away as the fog dissipated. They are always moving away faster than the black fog is dispersing, and are always wrapped in the fog, making it impossible to see their appearance clearly.
But in just a few minutes, the town that was originally shrouded in fog revealed its original appearance.
This is an ordinary small town with clean streets and old buildings, but they have been carefully renovated and do not look old.
The streets were lifeless, the shops were closed and empty.
No one could imagine that this place was just crowded with "two mermaids".
Needless to say, everyone knows that we are out of danger for the time being.
But it was bought with the life of a player.
Perhaps as long as a player dies, some mechanism will be triggered and the fog will dissipate, and it seems that the mermaids can only stay in the thick fog. As the fog lifts, they will retreat with it.
At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on the player lying straight on the ground.
He was a thin male player, the skin on his face had turned black and his original appearance could not be seen.
Everyone was shocked. How could it become like this in such a short time?
What is even more surprising is that his brain is shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye and is gradually becoming shriveled.
If you look closely, you can see a small black hole on his forehead with a little thick black liquid flowing out of it.
This is... having his brain sucked out?
Thinking of this possibility, everyone's faces became heavy and no one spoke for a while.
The scarred man who saw this scene clearly looked extremely ugly.
He raised his head and touched his forehead, which was the same spot as the dead player. The mermaid's long tongue had already touched his forehead. If only it had touched it a little more, his brain would have been sucked away.
The scarred man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his brain was still confused and his limbs were still weak.
Live broadcast room:
[Tsk, this generation of players is a bit bad]
[+1, if I hadn't taken a fancy to this cub, I would have left]
[Zazi was the calmest throughout the whole show. His facial expression didn't change at all. He even comforted his sister. Now I know that he was serious when he said he wanted to eat fish! 】
[I’m not that bad, the game starts in hell mode, one of us must die to defeat the black fog and mermaids, it depends on who is the unlucky one]
[Didn’t you guys notice? Those mermaids have been walking around Zizi and hardly any of them are getting close to him. It turns out that Zizi is not an ordinary Zizi! 】
One person died within ten minutes of the start of the game, and they had to survive here for three days to pass the level or obtain the pearls transformed from the mermaid's tears.
But when the mermaid appeared just now, except for Gu Lin and the scarred man who kept his face close to the mermaid for two seconds, the others didn't even get a clear look at the mermaid's appearance.
The scarred man opened his mouth, but then suddenly closed it.
The mermaid's eyes are white and covered with disgusting fish bubbles or something. Can I really cry? If I can't cry, how can I get the pearls that the mermaid's tears transform into?
The possibility of obtaining the pearl is very slim. Not to mention whether the mermaid's white eyeballs can make her cry, even if she can, this monster with such strong attack power that leaves no room for reaction is not suitable for a head-on collision.
Then, the only way to pass the level is to survive for three days.
The death of a player just now will cause the black fog to dissipate, and the mermaids will also retreat.
Now there are nine players left. In the next three days, he must use the other eight players to gain survival time.
The scarred man was planning secretly.
Gu Lin was also thinking about his own little plan. Unlike the scarred man who had evil intentions on other players, Gu Lin was thinking that the mermaid's eyeballs were white, so could they be little pearls?
But how to get it?
Do you want to deduct it?
9527:【? 】
No, those are not little pearls.
Gu Lin became a little distressed. The mermaid was so tall, and he was so small, and his hands were too short, he couldn't reach it at all!
Well...yes, he can climb trees.
Couldn't he just climb up the mermaid like climbing a tree to see it?
He is great at climbing trees!
9527: [……]
Well, little anchor, you are such a smart guy.
The prerequisite is that the other person must be a dead mermaid, otherwise he would not react even if you climb on his head like climbing a tree.
Just as the players were silent with different thoughts in their minds, a group of people walked out from the corner not far away.
When they saw this group of people, the players' faces changed.
