Chapter 12, Level 8 (12) You are a vegetarian, how can you eat bones...
He Lun's spectacular fake death frightened the resident of Room 4. He tilted his head and glanced at the person lying on the ground.
Then he walked past He Lun without interest and approached Gao Mengtang step by step.
Gao Mengtang subconsciously took two steps back and glanced at the system panel.
: You have entered the closed area room 4. You can leave only after defeating the resident of room 4.
Behind him was the locked bedroom door, and the monster's shadow gradually enveloped Gao Mengtang.
The thick, greasy fingers inserted into Gao Mengtang's hair, and the hair between the fingers exuded a faint fragrance. The resident of Room 4 took a deep breath in fascination: "She is so beautiful, and she came to my door."
He took out the key with his other hand, opened the bedroom door, and pushed Gao Mengtang in impatiently.
Gao Mengtang fell to the floor. He frantically tidied up his hair that had been touched by resident No. 4 and dodged backwards frantically.
Because he couldn't see and was dizzy from the fall, he opened his confused eyes and groped around, trying to find a place to support himself and stand up. His thin body swayed like a reed.
The resident of Room 4 thought it was fun, so he pushed Gao Mengtang down again and pulled him back to his side by his legs.
The Fake Death Knight quietly opened one eye and his heart was broken when he saw this scene.
But he still remembered Gao Mengtang's instructions, suppressed his pity, clenched his teeth and said nothing.
Gao Mengtang's heart was also broken.
It stinks! Resident No. 4 stinks!
The continuous smell of meat mixed with a strong and pungent stench of decay. Every time Gao Mengtang breathed in front of him, the smell would penetrate into his body and contaminate every pore of his body.
He even touched his hair! With his greasy paws, which hadn't been washed in days!
Gao Mengtang washed her hair and applied hair oil every day! Her long, thick curly hair that she had carefully taken care of was touched by him! Gao Mengtang stepped back again, curled up into a ball, and her resistance was evident in her words.
"Don't be afraid, come here." Resident No. 4 stretched out his hand and tried to grab Gao Mengtang's ankle.
Gao Mengtang quickly dodged back and pinched his nose: "Don't touch me, I can walk by myself."
Although pinching your nose in front of others is very impolite, Gao Mengtang believes that touching other people's hair and face with dirty hands is even more impolite. He is just repaying a complaint with direct action.
Resident No. 4 was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the operating table in the middle of the room and said, "Okay. It's fun to be obedient. Lie down on it."
The room had curtains drawn and the lights off, so the light was dim and only the outlines of objects could be vaguely seen. Cages as high as the ceiling were placed on all four sides, divided into small compartments. Each compartment contained a dark mass. It was hard to tell what it was.
In addition to the cage, there is an operating bed in the middle of the room and a metal cabinet next to the operating bed.
Gao Mengtang got up from the ground, walked to the operating bed, and reached out to touch it.
There was a sticky thing on my hand that had a bad smell and seemed to be a mass of biological tissue.
Resident No. 4 pushed up Meng Tang's shoulders and urged, "Lie down!"
Gao Mengtang threw away the deformed animal organs in his hand and wiped his hands frantically on his white coat.
This white coat was given to him by the pharmacist, and he probably won’t return it yet.
"Lie down!" Resident No. 4 shouted.
Gao Mengtang: "The operating table has not been cleaned and disinfected, and no sterile sheets have been laid on it. I won't lie down."
Resident No. 4 was stuck and blinked his eyes.
Outside the room, He Lun was so frightened that he even forgot to pretend to be dead. He stiffened his neck, raised his head, and watched intently.
Resident No. 4 was really being led by Gao Mengtang. His stupid face, which looked like he had trisomy 21 syndrome, twisted and uttered the word "Ah?"
Gao Mengtang: "Do you have alcohol and bed sheets? I'll get them myself."
Resident No. 4 was stunned for several seconds: "In the closet. Look for it yourself."
Gao Mengtang couldn't see anything clearly, so of course he didn't know how to look for it, but he pretended to search around in the cabinet.
In the task bar, [Enter Room 4 on any floor to search for clues] still showed "Unfinished". Gao Mengtang fumbled around, and suddenly, he smelled a faint fragrance in the cabinet.
In the metal cabinet, there is a palm-sized piece of bone that is white, jade-like, and looks out of place among the sundries.
The fragrance came from this bone. In this bloody room, a faint wisp of burning incense was like a spider thread hanging from hell. Gao Mengtang didn't think twice and grabbed it tightly.
System: "Congratulations to player [000 Blind] for obtaining the hidden exploration reward [Ancestral Relics (Level 9) x1] on the 8th floor of the dungeon."
"All the hidden rewards in this dungeon have been discovered. I wish you a smooth clearance."
[Ancestor's Bones] Item Description: After death, he still protects his suffering people... But when will the suffering end? Flesh and bones cannot last forever. The bones contain powerful magic, which can make everything stronger.
The remains are divided into levels 0 to 9. The smaller the number, the rarer and more powerful the remains.
He Lun shouted through the telepathic connection: "Brother! [Ancestral Remains] is the most important item in Black Tower, bar none. Eating it can improve the player's skills. Try taking a bite!"
Gao Mengtang hesitated: "Eat raw, bones?"
He Lun: "You can eat it after cooking, but there are no pots now. The official guide post said that the low-level ancestral remains have become crispy after years of baptism, like potato chips. You can try taking a bite."
Gao Mengtang pinched it with his hands and heard a cracking sound. Several pieces of the bone broke.
…My ancestor had severe osteoporosis.
He picked up a piece of bone, brought it to his mouth, and his teeth clicked on the edge of the bone.
"vomit!"
An indescribable taste filled his mouth. Gao Mengtang instinctively felt resistance and couldn't eat it at all.
In the prop column, a line of small red words lit up:
[You are a vegetarian, how can you eat bones? 】
[000 The blind cannot eat the remains of their ancestors]
Gao Mengtang slowly tapped a question mark in his mind, and he shouted in his heart: "Are you sure that the remains of the ancestors are the most important props in "Black Tower"? "
"Of course! The purpose of players going to dungeons is to obtain [Ancestral Remains], upgrade their levels, and play higher-level dungeons. From beating crayfish with a wooden stick to beating the Doomsday Overlord Crayfish with a Sky-shattering Thunder Staff," He Lun squinted one eye and looked at him, "Brother, eat quickly!"
The most important item in the game, why is it not edible? Gao Mengtang didn't have time to think about it, as his train of thought was interrupted by Resident No. 4.
"What are you dawdling for!" He grabbed Gao Mengtang by the scruff of the neck and lifted him up.
Gao Mengtang felt extremely disgusted when he was touched by him. He struggled free and took several steps back, his back hitting the cage with a clanging sound.
Gao Mengtang's dodging made Resident No. 4 even happier. He smiled and reached out to grab him again. Gao Mengtang pushed him away and dodged, and the iron cage behind him kept clanging.
The two men twisted into a ball. He Lun couldn't play dead any longer. He was furious when he saw the teasing and playful attitude of the resident of Room 4. He tried to get up several times, but was held down by Gao Mengtang.
The dust on the iron cage was knocked everywhere and the rusty bolt on the cage squeaked.
Suddenly, a soft cat's meow was heard from the shadowed cage, blowing like a breeze, making the whole room quiet for a second.
"Meow."
"Meow. Meow. Meow."
The cries became louder and louder, and the dark shadows in the cage rose and fell, gradually approaching the iron bars. In the darkness, the faces of kittens appeared.
None of the kittens' faces were intact. Some were missing an ear, some had their fur shaved, some had an eye gouged out, and some had their entire faces corroded into a ball of flesh by concentrated sulfuric acid.
The cats stood at the door of the cage, crying one after another, not shrill, but continuous. The cats' eyes glowed in the darkness.
"Shut up, you beasts!" Resident No. 4 slammed the iron railing, but the cats continued to meow. The meowing sound was like a timer, with the same frequency and sound.
Resident No. 4 grinned cruelly and ferociously: "You didn't scream enough when you were tortured, right? Wait, it will be your turn soon. I will deal with this little kitty first today." He patted Gao Mengtang's face again and again, "I just like to torture and kill pretty little things like you. Are you scared? Scream! The louder you scream, the happier I am!"
Ding. The system prompt sounded.
[Trigger the keyword "massacre", the task is to enter the 4th room of any floor to search for clues, which has been completed. ]
The resident of Room 4 put his dirty and smelly mouth full of yellow teeth in front of Gao Mengtang, and said with a look of delight: "Look behind you, these kittens are about to be tortured to death by me."
An orange cat showed its face behind Gao Mengtang. One of its eyes had been gouged out, and the skin on half of its head was burnt. It had no tail, and one of its claws was missing.
Gao Mengtang smiled and pulled the latch on the cage behind him.
"Meow!"
The orange cat jumped out, spotted the mouth of resident No. 4, and bit it.
Screaming like a pig being slaughtered. While the resident of No. 4 was rolling on the ground, Gao Mengtang opened five cages in a row and shouted to the outside:
"Stop pretending to be dead, open all the cages!"
Before Gao Mengtang could finish his words, He Lun rushed over and swept his spear, cutting the iron cages into pieces one after another, without hurting the cats inside at all.
Dozens of cats rushed out of their cages, like babies rushing out of hell to claim their lives, and pounced on resident No. 4 like cannonballs, gnawing at his face and scratching his eyeballs.
"You beasts!" The resident of Room 4 grabbed a cat and broke its neck with a snap. He raised his bloody face and glared at Gao Mengtang viciously, "And you, you deserve it..."
Before he could utter a single curse word, Helen's shield hit him in the face. Resident No. 4 spat out two bloody teeth and lay on the ground for a long time without being able to get up.
Cats are small mammals after all, and although there are many of them, they are not strong enough to fight against the pervert in Room 4. He Lun wanted to attack, but was stopped by Gao Mengtang.
"Can the remains of our ancestors make all things stronger?" Gao Mengtang asked.
"Yeah." He Lun said. He saw that resident No. 4 was about to stand up and fight back. He was very anxious. "Brother, why don't you let me kill him? He, he wants to hurt you!"
Gao Mengtang was calm and composed, as if he hadn't even noticed Resident No. 4 stumbling towards him. He asked calmly, "Can I use the little monsters in the dungeon?"
He Lun: "Of course. Brother, I can't help it, I want to do it... What are you going to do?"
Gao Mengtang broke off a piece of ancestor's bone, crushed it with his fingers, and then called out in a sweet voice: "Kitten, have some snacks."
A few little fur balls covered in blood came over.
A cow cat with its tongue cut off jumped over and held a bit of bone powder in its mouth. Not only did its tongue grow back, but it also had three tongues, each with four rows of barbs, which exploded in the mouth like a flower.
Those without tails grew nine tails; those whose hair was shaved grew poisonous scales; those whose intestines fell out of their bodies had their lower bodies turned into corrosive, wriggling masses of flesh.
After eating the bone meal, the kittens all became degenerates, and they meowed and pounced towards resident No. 4, acting like little pets.
It was just that the resident of Room 4 screamed miserably. His skin and flesh were shaved off by the barbed tongue, his leg bones were corroded by the venom, and his internal organs were taken out one by one.
The pig-slaughtering screams gradually turned into vague whimpers, and finally stopped completely.
System: Resident 4 has died. The sealed area has been unlocked. You may leave.
: Congratulations to players 000 Blind Man and 099 Knight for achieving the perfect ending of Room 4: [Cat's Revenge]. If there is a kind of death that is a celebration, then the name of this kind of death is revenge. (Open the cage and let the cat kill the resident in Room 4 to achieve this ending)
: Mission rewards, [Ancestral Relics (Level 9) x1] per person, have been sent to your mailbox.
He Lun jumped for joy when he saw the prize in the mailbox. "Fortunately, I didn't kill Resident No. 4 directly, otherwise it would have been a normal ending! Brother, how did you know that letting the cat out would lead to a happy ending?"
Gao Mengtang had never read the strategy post, and had no idea what a "happy ending" or "normal ending" was. He was just guessing.
The side quest prompts that there may be a battle when entering Room 4 to explore. This means that there may be no need to fight.
After they entered the room, the system prompted them that they could only leave after defeating the resident of Room 4.
No need to fight and defeat the user of room 4. Then there is only one situation left, triggering some conditions, or letting something else kill the resident of room 4.
Apart from Gao Mengtang and He Lun, the only thing that could move in the room was the cat in the cage.
When Gao Mengtang heard the cat's meow, he had the idea of passing the level.
After hearing this, He Lun clapped his hands: "Brother, you can get killed if you're not careful. Aren't you afraid that the cat won't kill the pervert, but you'll be abused by him instead?"
"I'm afraid," Gao Mengtang answered decisively, "but death is inevitable, and it's not bad to die today."
He Lun: "Brother, you are so humorous, hahaha, ha, ha."
He laughed twice, turned around and saw that Gao Mengtang didn't look like he was joking, and the last two laughs became very dry.
Gao Mengtang glanced at the task panel. After completing the second side task, the third side task was unlocked.
3. Give a gift to the Hundred-Eyed Wizard (unfinished)
Note: Gifts will affect the success rate of the Hundred-Eyed Wizard's salvation, so please choose carefully.
Gao Mengtang thought for a moment, turned around and returned to the master bedroom.
Inside the room, the cats were licking their bloody paws after eating and drinking. When they saw Gao Mengtang coming in, they ran over on tiptoe and rubbed against his trouser legs.
Gao Mengtang groped his way inside and was pulled back by He Lun.
"Brother, what are you going to do again?"
Gao Mengtang: "I want the skull of resident No. 4. Where is it? I can't see clearly."
The skull of resident No. 4 was still covered with remnants of flesh, blood, and a bunch of unknown human tissues, making it look extremely filthy. However, He Lun did not hesitate, and immediately picked it up, poured out the brain matter and dirty blood, and wiped it with the hem of his clothes.
He didn't even ask why he wanted the skull.
It was his duty to go through fire and water for Gao Mengtang. Such dirty work could not be done by a blind man. It was his dereliction of duty as a knight.
Finally leaving Room 4 and returning to the corridor, Gao Mengtang took a deep breath. In comparison, the air in the corridor was extremely fresh, comparable to a natural oxygen bar.
"I haven't seen you for five minutes. You have done a lot." The pharmacist came over with a smile, "You passed a side quest and got three pieces of ancestral bones. What is this in the knight's arms?"
He Lun held the skull of the resident of Room 4 in his hands.
"This is a souvenir." Gao Mengtang said. He knocked on the empty skull with his knuckles. The skull in the copy was special, with a clear sound, and different pitches when hitting different parts.
Gao Mengtang also likes music very much and has a natural absolute pitch.
One of them couldn't help himself and used his skull to play a short, lively and cheerful melody.
pharmacist:……
