In the quiet cabin, the sound of high heels is particularly crisp.
Judging from the voice, she must be a beautiful woman.
The butcher frowned in thought, probably wondering if he had heard similar footsteps before.
Lin Mo was a little excited.
Could it be that Nie Hong, the one who said Cao Cao, is here? She came just after I mentioned her?
Lin Mo immediately wanted to run over to take a look, but he changed his mind and felt that it was a bit unkind of Nie Hong to leave the ship without saying goodbye last time, so he planned to scare her.
When Nie Hong comes over, I will suddenly jump out to scare her, which will definitely give her a fright.
Because of the jade ring given by Yu Ning, Lin Mo can now completely hide the breath of living people. Even Nightmare, who has extremely strong perception ability, can't easily detect his breath.
Hide first.
There happened to be a pile of corpses nearby, so Lin Mo tiptoed over and hid behind it. Seeing the butcher still standing there, Lin Mo signaled him to hide quickly.
The butcher nodded, picked up the kitchen knife, and walked to the pool of blood nearby.
The pool of blood was knee-deep. It was filthy and emitted a foul smell of blood. The area was quite large. After the butcher walked over, he slowly lay down and sank his entire body into the pool of blood.
Lin Mo was stunned.
Looking at where the butcher was hiding and then looking at where he was hiding, Lin Mo felt that he was so weak.
This is what the butcher calls hiding. He is definitely a hardcore player. Lin Mo couldn't help but respect him.
At this time, the sound of high heels was getting closer.
At first, they walked in a regular pattern, but soon, the other party seemed to have noticed something and started to speed up, and then suddenly stopped just in front of them.
All of a sudden, the surroundings fell into silence again.
Lin Mo remained motionless, wondering if Nie Hong had also discovered them and wanted to scare them in return? At this moment, a noise came from the passageway that Lin Mo and the butcher had just climbed up.
Lin Mo looked over and saw a pig-headed monster climbing up to the W4 floor.
He must have just happened to pass by and saw the stairs leading up, so he climbed up.
This pig-headed monster obviously has not lost all its memories, and it even has a sharp knife in its hand.
He is a man with a knife.
This guy has a circle of fangs hanging around his neck, which appear to be canine teeth pulled out from the mouths of other pig-headed monsters. Hanging these fangs around is meant to be a demonstration.
It just tells others that I have killed people like crazy and I am not someone you can mess with.
Similar to a deterrent totem of ancient tribes.
Lin Mo hid in a good place. The other party couldn't see him, but he could see the pig-headed monster carefully crawling out of the passage, and then looking around vigilantly.
I guess it was the slaughterhouse-like scene that stunned it.
Even the pig-headed monster was hesitating whether to retreat.
After all, this place looks too dangerous.
But this layer has a stronger meaty aroma. Lin Mo heard from the butcher that once you have tasted the "meat" on the ship, it would be difficult to resist the temptation.
Lin Mo could hear the gurgling sound in the pig-headed monster's stomach.
The other party is suffering from hunger.
This makes it even more impossible to go back.
Desire and greed will keep it at this level.
Sure enough, the pig-headed monster did not retreat, but grabbed the sharp knife and slowly groped forward.
The pig-headed monster didn't know that at least three beings had noticed it right here.
Lin Mo is one.
The butcher is one.
There is also a person suspected to be 'Nie Hong'.
Lin Mo guessed that Nie Hong had just heard the voice of the pig-headed monster and that was why she suddenly stopped.
The pig-headed monster, unaware that it was being targeted by the three terrifying beings, walked slowly forward. When it passed by the pile of bones where Lin Mo was hiding, it even took a look inside.
However, Lin Mo hid very well, so the other party did not notice him.
The same thing happened when passing by the pool of blood where the butcher was hiding. The pig-headed monster almost walked close to the butcher and almost stepped on him.
However, the butcher's mentality was as solid as a rock and he did not move.
The waves of sewage and the sound of water can be heard clearly in this quiet environment.
The pig-headed monster slowly walked to the front, and Lin Mo took a sneak peek.
The other party only needs to take a few more steps to reach the corner where Nie Hong was hiding before.
He walked over the few steps quickly, and the next moment, something strange happened.
A dry, somewhat deformed arm holding a knife suddenly stabbed out from the hidden corner. The speed was so fast that the pig-headed monster had no chance to react at all and was stabbed directly through the neck.
The pig-headed monster was trembling all over, but it couldn't die at that moment. After all, it was a monster with a gluttony curse, and its counterattack before death was quite terrifying.
But unfortunately, this time the pig-headed monster met the real hunter, the real butcher.
A hand shot out like lightning and covered the pig-headed monster's mouth.
This hand is huge.
It was three times the size of a normal human, but its wrists were very thin and its strength was enormous. The pig-headed monster could not struggle and finally went limp.
Fell to the ground.
The sharp knife in its hand also fell.
The blood spread under the corpse, covering a large area.
Lin Mo saw the whole process. He looked at his hands, then looked over there, and muttered something in his heart.
"It looks like it's not Nie Hong!"
Nie Hong's hands are of normal size, not those deformed big hands.
The next moment, a monster that Lin Mo had never seen before walked out from the corner in front.
Lin Mo just took a look and had only one thought in his mind.
Ugly!
It's so fucking ugly.
What on earth is this?
This monster looks like a woman, but her legs and arms are extremely long.
It felt like walking on stilts, with two hands, one of which seemed to have undergone surgery and was sewn together with a knife. The knife was sharp, like the appearance of a Japanese sword, suitable for piercing and beheading, with a blade two feet long and a cold light surging.
The other hand has a huge palm and is full of power.
Because she was so tall, the woman had to walk with her back bent, and she was wearing a pair of high heels.
No wonder walking makes that sound.
Even more bizarre was the woman's face.
His eyes were abnormally long and narrow, almost extending to his temples, which looked extremely uncoordinated and uncomfortable. He had long hair, but not much hair, and was bald on top.
Lin Mo seriously doubted whether this guy was a programmer in disguise?
Female programmers are rare.
After finding out that it was not Nie Hong, Lin Mo felt that he was lucky. If he had not hidden just now, and if that unlucky pig-headed monster had not suddenly appeared, maybe it would be him and the butcher who would be facing this monster now.
The monster first grabbed the sharp knife that fell on the ground and then chopped it hard with its own knife.
With a click.
The pig-headed monster's sharp knife shattered with a sound, probably because the knife's spirit had been sucked away. Throwing the knife handle down, the female monster approached the pig-headed monster on the ground and began to speak.
"Why can you guys get so fat, but I can't?"
"Why can those bastards command me, order me, and control me?"
"Why can those women up there be so beautiful, but I can't?"
At this time, the female monster took out a mirror from somewhere and started looking at herself in the mirror.
"ah!"
Suddenly, the female monster roared fiercely.
I guess even she herself thinks she is too ugly and can't bear to look at her.
A strange emotion spread through this female monster.
"Why am I so ugly? Why can the women above enjoy strength, power and beauty? I also want to have all of these..."
"I hate it so much, I hate it so much!"
The female monster began to hit the metal wall of the cabin again and again like crazy, and the hard metal wall was actually dented.
Lin Mo could see that the female monster was jealous of others, the kind of jealousy that went deep into her bones.
But what the hell is there to envy? Isn't it better to be yourself? Jealousy is the most undesirable desire, as poisonous as arsenic, but it is very easy to get addicted to, slowly making people fall into endless pain, and it is a pain that will never end.
Suddenly, Lin Mo noticed that the female monster had many tumors growing on her back.
These tumors began to grow slowly due to the rampant jealousy.
It's like a balloon that keeps getting bigger.
After reaching the limit, bang bang bang! Dozens of tumors exploded, and a lavender smoke began to spread.
Lin Mo could feel that at this moment an extremely powerful curse power emerged from the female monster, and Lin Mo could probably guess what kind of curse it was.
At this time, the female monster seemed to have gotten some catharsis. She calmed down and stretched out her big hand, grabbed one of the pig-headed monster's legs, and slowly dragged the other forward.
The shuffling sounds combined with the clacking of high heels gave the feeling that something sinister was about to happen.
Slowly, the sound faded away.
The butcher then slowly sat up from the pool of blood, and finally stood up. Blood flowed down his cheeks and clothes, but the butcher didn't care at all.
Lin Mo also came out from his hiding place.
"What is that?" asked Lin Mo.
He was still very unfamiliar with this ship.
"It looks familiar. I should have seen it before, but I can't remember clearly." The butcher didn't say a word. Although he couldn't remember who the monster was, he remembered that it was very dangerous.
Otherwise, he wouldn't hide away on his own initiative.
You have to know that before, no matter who the butcher met, he would just attack them directly without saying a word.
At this time, the purple curse mist was about to float over.
"This curse is bad. If you don't want to be contaminated, just wear it." The butcher said and put on the gas mask.
Lin Mo reacted and put on his own mask.
Soon, purple mist spread over and enveloped the two of them.
It turns out that this is what the pig-nose gas mask is used for.
Fortunately, the butcher did not forget this, otherwise he would have been infected with this bad curse.
In order to confirm his guess, Lin Mo took out a piece of yellow paper and waved it in the purple mist.
The yellow piece of paper was soon covered with a lot of mist.
The weapon condensed into a few words.
Lin Mo took a closer look and saw that what was written on it was indeed the corresponding curse name and sequence.
1-2 Jealousy!
really.
Lin Mo had just felt that the female monster was abnormal. She kept muttering to herself, complaining about everything, and was always jealous of this and that. Now, he saw that she was actually cursing with jealousy.
It seems that even on the ship, the curse of 'jealousy' is not welcome, otherwise there would not be this pig-head gas mask.
It should be specially used to defend against this kind of curse.
If a person who doesn't understand the situation enters this level and is suddenly surrounded by this purple mist, he will definitely be infected with the jealousy curse.
Judging from the sequence alone, the Curse of Envy is even worse than the Curse of Gluttony, but obviously, the disadvantages are too great.
This is a curse that is more likely to make people lose their sanity than gluttony.
In other words, the moment a person is infected with this curse, he or she will inevitably lose himself or herself and fall into the painful abyss of jealousy.
In this case, what’s the use even if you gain unparalleled power.
Moreover, the female monster's body was the source of the curse of "jealousy". The constantly expanding pustules would release these purple cursed objects after they burst.
"Let's pass this level as soon as possible." said the butcher.
Lin Mo had no objection to this.
This place is definitely not a place to stay for long, it’s better to leave early.
However, Lin Mo and the butcher searched for several rounds but still couldn't find the upward passage.
It's as if there is no passage at all.
Because he had walked around the W3 floor several times, Lin Mo was quite familiar with it.
It is no exaggeration to call this place a slaughterhouse. Mountains of corpses can be seen everywhere. Lin Mo and the butcher even found a huge deep pit specifically for storing corpses.
There are thousands of corpses inside.
The rotten and stench was indescribable.
"We've searched almost all of this floor. There's no way out." Lin Mo looked at the butcher. Both of them were wearing gas masks at this time. Not to mention, the symmetrical pig-nose gas masks looked quite cool.
The main thing is that on this floor, the female monster will roar with jealousy from time to time, and every time she goes crazy, a purple curse mist will spread, which you have to be on guard against.
"The only place we haven't found yet is the workshop of that female monster!" Lin Mo's meaning was very clear.
The Glutton cannot have only the previous three floors. There must be more, so there must be an upward passage on this floor. It is impossible that there is none.
This passage is most likely in the workshop of that female monster.
That was the only place he and the butcher had not entered to explore.
The butcher nodded.
“Go and have a look!”
The two were already very familiar with this time, and the workshop where the female monster was located was easy to find, because from time to time, they could hear her mad roars.
It sounds creepy.
When not going crazy, the female monster seems to be 'working'.
It occasionally goes out to look for prey, and the time of going out is not fixed.
If they find prey quickly, they will return immediately. Unless they can't find it, they will wander outside for a while.
Then the only way to enter the workshop is to wait for the female monster to leave.
Otherwise, if you walk in so brazenly, you will definitely be discovered the first time.
The butcher said that even if the two of them joined forces, they might not be able to defeat this female monster. Lin Mo also agreed with this, the opponent's momentum was indeed very strong.
In terms of strength, the female monster can easily crush the strongest pig-headed monster.
And the butcher is only slightly stronger than the pig-headed monster.
As for Lin Mo, he was just bullying ordinary people, and he certainly couldn't be compared with the other party in terms of strength. Of course, if Xiaoyu and Xiaohu were added, relying on the strength of numbers, four against one, they might not necessarily lose.
But that's just speculation.
If you can avoid fighting a battle that you are not sure of winning, then try not to fight it.
The two waited outside for several hours and finally waited for the female monster to leave. She whispered and left quickly like a mental patient.
"One person goes in, and the other one watches outside, so that they can know the situation the first time the other party comes back." Lin Mo meant to let the butcher go in and look for it.
After all, no matter how badly the butcher lost his memory, he had at least been on the ship for a long time.
Lin Mo is a complete novice, so he is just suitable for surveillance.
The butcher didn't refuse, and the two agreed that if the butcher found the passage, he would come out to inform Lin Mo, and if he didn't find it, he would continue to look. Conversely, if Lin Mo found that the female monster had returned, he would make some noise to remind the butcher to come out quickly.
There are many loopholes in the plan, but this is the only way for now.
The butcher went in, and Lin Mo walked forward for a while and stopped at a fork in the passage.
You can see the two passages in front from here, and it is at least fifty meters away from the workshop.
The advantage is that if you find something wrong, you can notify the butcher immediately and evacuate in time.
Next comes the waiting.
Half an hour passed quickly.
There was no movement in the workshop behind him, and the female monster in front did not come back either.
Fortunately, Lin Mo guessed that the workshop was relatively large, so if the butcher couldn't find a place right away, he could continue to wait.
But after waiting for more than ten minutes, Lin Mo vaguely realized that something was wrong.
Even though this workshop is quite large, it should have been explored clearly in more than 40 minutes. If it is there, it is there, and if it is not there, it is not there. It is impossible that there is no movement at all.
Lin Mo wanted to go in and take a look.
But I was afraid that the female monster would suddenly come back at this time.
After struggling for a few minutes, Lin Mo slapped his forehead. He suddenly remembered that he was not alone and he had many helpers.
"shadow!"
He called out softly.
More than a dozen heads immediately popped up from the shadows behind Lin Mo.
"Go over there and take a look."
Lin Mo pointed in the direction of the workshop.
Several shadows nodded immediately and swam quickly on the ground.
It may be difficult for these shadows to find the passage, but it should not be a problem to simply explore some situations.
Soon, the shadow returned and gestured to Lin Mo.
That means, there's no one inside.
No one?
Lin Mo was stunned.
How is that possible!
But Lin Mo thought again, the butcher hadn't made any noise for such a long time, maybe there was really no one in the workshop.
Lin Mo hurriedly left a few shadows to guard the fork in the road, and he quickly ran into the workshop.
As soon as he entered, Lin Mo saw a shocking scene.
There are several rows of iron racks here, each with four layers, and on each layer of the iron rack, there is the corpse of a pig-headed monster.
Some had been gutted and their internal organs taken out. There was a big pool filled with all kinds of internal organs and offal. The stench was unbearable and flies were flying everywhere.
There is also a larger area inside, which is littered with piles of pig-headed monster corpses.
Some have already been cut up and look like the pork for sale in the market, cut into half and stacked neatly.
There were dozens of iron hooks on the roof over there, installed in an iron slide. On some of the hooks, there were pig-headed monsters hanging.
If this scene was replaced with other meat, Lin Mo seemed to have seen it somewhere.
Yes, it’s the butcher’s home on the second floor of Building 2 in Lvyuan Community.
Lin Mo suddenly had a feeling that this place was very consistent with the butcher's temperament.
Just at this moment, there was a banging sound outside.
Lin Mo immediately realized that this was the shadow warning him.
The female monster is back.
At the same time, the sound of hurried high heels walking was heard outside, and Lin Mo immediately realized that it was too late to go out.
The female monster is running back, and with those long legs, her speed must be quite fast.
Hide nearby.
Lin Mo asked Shadow to come back immediately and look for a hiding place at the same time.
But time was extremely tight, and the sound of high heels had already reached the door.
In a hurry, Lin Mo saw the corpse of a pig-headed monster hanging on the iron hook over there. The monster's stomach had been opened, which was a good place to hide.
Lin Mo immediately climbed up and got into the corpse's stomach.
This feeling is very bad, but Lin Mo doesn't care about it. If necessary, he can even hide in a more disgusting place.
In a nightmare world, you definitely can’t be too particular.
The next moment, the huge and deformed body of the female monster appeared at the entrance.
