Chapter 14: Level 8 (End) Dungeon [Level 8] Completed...
There was a flash of blue light, and the blade hovered.
The tip of the needle was 3cm in front of Gao Mengtang's eyeball. If it got any closer, the eyeball would have burst.
When she blinked, her thick eyelashes swept across the blade. Her clear eyes, like glass beads, reflected a hint of the butterfly knife.
Although Gao Mengtang couldn't see clearly, he could sense the murderous intent. He calmed himself down and said, "You are willing to kill people in order to join the Black Gull. What's so good about this camp?"
The pharmacist sneered, "I haven't joined the Black Gull Human Resources Department yet. I'm not responsible for the faction's publicity. But I will say one thing, there is a player in the Black Gull Human Resources Department, Master 101, who can get a chance to be resurrected after signing a contract with him."
One more life. It was undoubtedly an irresistible temptation. Gao Mengtang rolled his eyes and said, "But are you sure you want to kill me? My spirit value is 999."
Pharmacist: "Nine thousand nine, ninety-nine thousand, what does it have to do with me? You can't burn half of my IOU."
Gao Mengtang: "But Heiou will be looking forward to my joining."
If any other new player said this, the pharmacist would laugh out loud and mock him by saying "ordinary and confident".
And he is Gao Mengtang, whose initial spirit value is an incredible 999.
If Gao Mengtang can get out alive, he will definitely receive an olive branch from Hei Gull. Hei Gull will not let go of a good seedling.
The pharmacist frowned: "So what."
Gao Mengtang: "You just said that the 101 body cleansing master is in the Human Resources Department."
The pharmacist understood. Before joining Heiou, the clearance video will be reviewed. The 101 body cleanser must have noticed Gao Mengtang.
Good talents are hard to find, and the HR department has a hard time recruiting new talents, and there are even fewer golden talents like Gao Mengtang. If he kills Gao Mengtang now, it will be equivalent to destroying a major project of the body cleansing division.
The purifier is also a workaholic. Anything that hinders his work will be classified as "annoying".
The pharmacist lacked confidence: "Black Gull is a large faction with rules and regulations, and everything is handled impartially. Even if I kill you, as long as I gain achievements, I can pass the approval of the purifier."
"Meanness is the passport of meanness," Gao Mengtang echoed what the pharmacist had said, "Those who join Black Owl can't be good people. I guess the purifier is not an upright person either. As your future leader, aren't you afraid that he will make things difficult for you?"
Rumor has it that the body-cleansing master is sinister and vicious, and will never let go of any grudge. He has eight hundred evil minds, each of which is smaller than a grain of rice.
If you offend him, even if you have two lives, you don’t know how you will end up losing them.
Gao Mengtang sighed, "From your tone, the status of the body purifier is very high. Those arrogant superiors don't need a sufficient reason to eliminate a person. 'I don't like you' is enough. If you kill me, the body purifier doesn't like you, what should I do?"
The pharmacist's hand holding the knife trembled, cold sweat oozed from his palms, and his expression became more ferocious, but he was actually weak inside.
"When I see the body-cleansing master, I will help you ask for an internal referral spot." Gao Mengtang added with a smile.
Seeing his bright smile, the pharmacist was furious.
While others were trying their best to join Heiou, Gao Mengtang was determined to win before he even started preparing.
But he really has this ability. With his 999 spirit value, as long as he is still breathing, he can join the Black Gull by lying down. What's more, he performed well in the dungeon: he was the first to summarize the rules of going up and down the stairs, cleared the side dungeon, and discovered that the pharmacist was a beta test player...
The black gull must like the blind man very much, as he would be the first to receive the invitation letter sent by the seagull.
The pharmacist was enraged by this reality: "Stop laughing! I'm going to kill you now. Let's see if the black gull will collect your body!"
"You won't do something that would kill one thousand enemies but injure eight hundred of your own. Because you are a smart person." Gao Mengtang said. He whispered in the pharmacist's ear, like a ghost blowing pillow wind, and added lightly, "Don't you want to know the secret of my 999 spirit value? It's more attractive than two lives, right?"
The pharmacist was so startled that he almost dropped the butterfly knife. His eyes widened behind his glasses and he asked, "Aren't you an ordinary person?"
Gao Mengtang smiled meaningfully: "You said you were a public beta player."
The pharmacist stared at him appraisingly.
At this time, the benefits of being blind came into play. Gao Mengtang's eyes did not reveal his thoughts at all.
Even though he didn't have any 999 secrets at all, his expression was calm.
The butterfly knife flew into his sleeve, and the arm that was tied around his shoulder loosened. The pharmacist stroked the back of Gao Mengtang's neck with one hand, and snapped something onto his neck.
A jet-black snake-shaped gem ring, with its mouth holding its tail and rough scales. When it touched Gao Mengtang's neck, the snake's body contracted and tightened, and the sharp edges of its scales left scratches on the skin.
The pharmacist smiled smugly and stroked the gem ring with both hands: "[Cursed Snake Ring], it will bite you every day, and the poison will accumulate every day. After seven days, even a bull will die from the poison. With your small body, you can only resist it for three days at most. Unless you come to me for the antidote."
As soon as he finished speaking, the head and tail of the jewel snake moved away, and its fangs pierced into the side of Gao Mengtang's neck.
The tingling sensation like an electric shock spread throughout my body, and for a moment, I couldn't even stand steadily. I could only hold on to the wall to support myself.
The pharmacist was even more satisfied. "Remember to come find me after you leave the game." He patted Gao Mengtang's face and walked down the stairs triumphantly. When he passed the landing, he heard Gao Mengtang's weak voice.
"Heren, attack him."
The pharmacist looked up in confusion, but before he could come to his senses, a golden light flashed and a spear stabbed from behind. Heren did not ask the reason and obeyed the order.
The beta test players had not gone through so many dungeons in vain. They had eaten many of the remains of their ancestors, which greatly improved their physical functions. The next second, the pharmacist jumped three meters away, avoiding the spear's stab.
He stared at Gao Mengtang in disbelief: "Are you crazy? Don't you want the antidote?"
Gao Mengtang leaned against the wall, one hand on the black precious snake ring around his neck, one foot on the steps. He was exhausted, his face was pale, but the smile in his eyes was deep: "If I kill you, I will get the props you dropped."
"Kill me?!" The pharmacist was like a joke. "I've passed 10 dungeons. One of you is sick, one is disabled, and only the knight is capable of fighting, and he's still a rookie. Kill me?!"
He Lun took out the remains of his 9th-level ancestor and swallowed them all. The golden light on his body became brighter. "I will fight to the last moment for the honor of the blind. If you want to leave, step over my body."
Yao Ji threw away his glasses, revealing his bloodshot eyes after being furious: "Good! You have a noble wish. I will fulfill it for you."
A blue light flashed from the cuffs, and the butterfly knife chopped on the knight's shield, leaving a lightning-shaped crack.
"More fragile than an eggshell." The pharmacist taunted. The attacks became more and more frequent.
The knight's shield, shining with golden light, was covered with spider-web-like cracks in an instant. Helun had no power to fight back and was beaten back step by step.
The pharmacist still had the leisure to talk to Gao Mengtang: "Blind man, you disobeyed me this time. But I will let bygones be bygones. After you get out, remember to apologize to me."
The pharmacist didn't even look at it, but grabbed it with his backhand. The spear was suspended in the air, unable to move at all.
With a raised hand, the knight and his spear were thrown into the air. The pharmacist jumped two meters high and kicked Heren in the chest.
He Lun fell to the ground like a sandbag, spit out a mouthful of blood, and was unable to get up for a long time.
"After being attacked by me once, you lose the ability to resist. Newbies are just rookies." The pharmacist shook his head.
He kicked and slammed, and Helen fell to the ground and rolled around, barely avoiding the attacks.
"The blind man told you to attack, and you attacked. You are more loyal than a dog. Have you ever considered that you are no match for me?" The pharmacist pulled Heren's hair, leaned down, and approached the bruised face.
He Lun chuckled, his teeth stained with blood: "I believe him."
"Believe him?" The pharmacist laughed and tilted his head to look at Gao Mengtang on the stairs. "He believes in you. Even if you ask him to die, he still believes in you."
The pharmacist had kicked and scolded enough, so he hooked the spear with his foot, grabbed it, and spun it in the air, making a golden ring. The spear head was facing Heren's head -
Phew.
The sound of a sharp object piercing flesh and bone.
The pharmacist's hands were still raised in the air, his eyes about to pop out of their sockets. He lowered his head inch by inch and saw that his abdomen was pierced by a piece of green glass.
Broken glass from a beer bottle.
Turning around, he saw the drunk girl standing behind him, her hands cut by glass and bleeding.
Puff. Before he could react, another piece of broken glass stabbed into his stomach. The drunk girl seemed to feel no pain, holding the broken glass in her bare hands, stabbing him again and again.
The pharmacist's face turned pale due to the massive blood loss: "Didn't you faint?"
"I'm pretending." The drunk girl swung the bottle and smashed it over the pharmacist's head. The wine and blood flowed down. "The blind man asked me to pretend to be unconscious so that I could sneak attack you."
The pharmacist covered his stomach, took a few steps back, sat down on the ground, and looked up at Gao Mengtang as if seeking an answer.
The venomous snake tightened inch by inch, and Gao Mengtang had difficulty breathing, but he still kept smiling: "I said, my sense of smell is very sensitive."
"As soon as I entered the 7th floor, I smelled a bloody odor. Then I played "Liang Liang" and "Good Luck Comes", and under the cover of the music, I whispered to the drunk girl. I asked her to pretend to be frightened and faint after she found something unusual."
"He also gave me a piece of ancestor's bone. I ate it when you beat the knight." The drunken girl threw the last piece of bone into her mouth.
Blood soaked through the pharmacist's clothes, and stained his body. He stared at Gao Mengtang for a long time, his facial features twisted and twitching, and then he laughed crazily: "Blind man, you really move cautiously at every step."
"Thank you," Gao Mengtang pulled the black snake ring, trying to breathe more smoothly. "When facing a person who takes pride in being mean, I should be cautious."
The pharmacist's vitality was stronger than they thought. He swallowed a bottle of supplements, and his stomach was bleeding. He still had the strength to swing the butterfly knife and cut at their throats. But his speed was much slower, and he could barely dodge.
Wine bottles kept appearing in the hands of the drunkard woman, and she smashed them on the pharmacist one after another. She shouted at He Lun, "Take the blind man away! Stay away!"
Before he could finish, He Lun rushed over, picked up Gao Mengtang horizontally, and ran down the stairs in two steps.
The smell of alcohol was so pungent that it even overwhelmed the smell of chemicals on the pharmacist.
The tonic gradually took effect, and the pharmacist looked much better: "Are you going to drown me with alcohol?" His whole body was soaked in alcohol, and several pieces of debris pierced into his flesh. The small scratches were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He punched the drunk woman in the face, and the latter did not even try to dodge, but took the blow head-on, her face tilted to the side, and blood flowed from the cracked corner of her mouth.
The drunk tilted his head and raised his hand, which contained a lighter.
The pharmacist's face changed.
"My alcohol is very flammable. Experience it, this is the flame of revenge of the archivist, the eccentric scholar, and the lumberjack." With a click, the blue flame jumped. The drunkard girl loosened her grip and the lighter fell to the floor.
With a loud bang, flames enveloped the pharmacist. The rising tongues of fire licked the ceiling, and screams were heard from the light that was too bright to look at.
Gao Mengtang was held by He Lun and ran down the stairs. The heat waves rolled behind him, blowing up his hair and singed the ends of his hair. He subconsciously looked towards a brighter place.
The flames filled the stairwell, and the moonlight also became hot. The warm light reflected on Gao Mengtang's face, like the warm sun of the first day falling on the first snow. Gao Mengtang opened his eyes wide, letting the light shine into his gray vision.
Gao Mengtang: "You said you didn't bring any fire, but you kept chewing tobacco leaves."
The drunkard girl: "He kept a trick up his sleeve to hide his strength. You and the pharmacist are not the only ones who are cunning."
System: "Pharmacist 174 has died. Game failed."
"Remaining players, 3 people."
Looking back, the pharmacist's body disappeared and the firelight faded away in an instant. It was still the moonlight and the cold steps.
Pushing open the white iron door, the number "8" hung in front of them. The door to Room 808 was on the right hand side.
"Cleared it?" He Lun was so excited that he almost cried, "8th floor. It really is 8th floor."
"Are you blind too?" The drunk girl resumed her aggressive attitude and raised her chin towards the door of Room 808.
A black skeleton stood in front of the door of Room 808. He held a silver key in his hand and reached towards the keyhole tremblingly.
After the player appeared, flesh and blood began to grow on the withered bones, and the skeleton spoke in human language: "Did you really see clearly? I shouldn't have been the one to die. I am so wronged."
He is a hundred-eyed wizard, but he is not aggressive.
System prompt: 000 Blind Man, please choose the gift you want to give to the Hundred-Eyed Wizard.
Gao Mengtang took out the skull of resident No. 4 and wanted to put it into the arms of the Hundred-Eyed Wizard.
He Lun hugged him and hid back: "Brother, this broken thing can't be a gift. You still have a piece of ancestor's bone left, give it to him."
Gao Mengtang shook his head: "Remember the pink shopping bag in front of Room 8? There was a dead cat in it."
Heron: "I remember, what's wrong? Oh my God, you really took the skull as a gift!"
The Hundred-Eyed Wizard held the skull in his hands and wept in despair. The corridor became even darker. Chaotic, huge and weird shadows protruded from every corner and pounced on the body of the Hundred-Eyed Wizard.
The crying turned into howling, and the howling turned into roaring, the sounds becoming more terrifying with each passing second.
"Damn it, it should be him!"
System: The Hundred-Eyed Wizard likes your gift very much. Now try to save him!
At the same time, "Monster Book" unlocks new content and automatically recites it to Gao Mengtang's ears.
[He lived on the 8th floor of a dilapidated, chaotic residential building]
[It seems that it is not a big deal for an adult male to live in an environment with poor security. But if it is a woman living alone, it is easy to get into trouble! ]
[Unfortunately, the resident of 708 is such a girl who lives alone. She has a kitten to keep her company.]
Gao Mengtang raised his hand, pressed it on the charred skull, and began to pray for the soul to be reborn.
[The resident of Room 4 on the same floor always finds various excuses to knock on her door in the middle of the night.]
[Later, the residents of Room 708 found some hidden camera props at the door. Her underwear and panties were also mysteriously missing.]
[She discovered that resident number 4 was a voyeur! A pervert! A cat abuser!]
[She was so scared]
[One day, her cat was poisoned to death. There was a needle hole on the cat food bag. Someone secretly opened her express delivery and injected poison into the cat food bag.]
[That night, Resident No. 4 knocked on her door again. She looked through the door mirror and saw that Resident No. 4 was spying into her room through the reverse peephole! His smile was so evil and terrifying!]
[She contacted the property management, but they ignored her. She called the police, but they just dealt with her half-heartedly. Move out overnight? She couldn’t afford another place.]
White light enveloped the Hundred-Eyed Wizard. An incomplete rune appeared on Gao Mengtang's palm, and his long hair moved without wind.
The rabbit in my arms poked out its furry head and erected its long ears.
[What else can a powerless girl do?]
[She retrieves a gun.]
[The day after the cat died, someone broke into her room.]
[The girl hugged the cold body of the cat and cried so sadly. The person who picked the door lock was relentless, and the lock kept clicking.]
[Suddenly, a surge of anger dries up her fear, and she opens the door, raising her gun.]
[Bang! A big hole was pierced through the man's head.]
[After a closer look, it turns out that it is not the pervert from Resident No. 4, but a strange young man.]
[It is the young man who lives in Room 808.]
There seemed to be the singing of a mysterious creature in the void, and the moonlight trembled. Wrapped in the light, the body of the Hundred-Eyed Wizard gradually became translucent.
He had crushed the skull of resident No. 4, and he kept repeating, crying, "It's not me who is to die. It's not me!"
[That night, he accompanied his leader to drink and was drunk to the point of being unconscious, so he looked at the wrong floor.]
[A life ended just like that. How unjust!]
[This absurd mistake cost him his life!]
[It shouldn't be him who should die!]
[It's the resident of Room 4! ]
The Hundred-Eyed Wizard grabbed Gao Mengtang's hand, and tightened it with a crackling sound of his skeleton knuckles: "I'm fine, it's innocent. Damn it, it wasn't me. Take me away."
"Take me away."
[Was the girl wrong? What else could she do besides raising the gun to protect herself?]
[She is not the murderer, but a knife. The circumstances plus her malice make her the one who wields the knife.]
System: The salvation was successful. The Hundred-Eyed Wizard has become the [Follower] of the 000 Blind Man.
The white light exploded and then retracted, and the body of the Hundred-Eyed Wizard disappeared. The sound of reading the Monster Book stopped at the same time. The corridor returned to silence.
In front of them was the door to Room 808.
He Lun: "Can we leave now? Can we really leave now?" He opened the door doubtfully, and the light behind the door instantly swallowed up the entire corridor.
When he came to his senses, Gao Mengtang had returned to his country cottage, with his enemy rabbit running around at his feet.
The system prompt sounded at this time: Copy [8th floor] has been completed.
