Chapter 178 "The Immortal Board"



There was nothing but the dancing snow and wind, and no one came.

He glanced at the system time. It was now the evening of the ninth day, and there was still an hour until the tenth day.

Obviously nothing happened, but the perfect progress increased by itself.

He had no idea, so he went back to the basement and covered it with hay.

Barrage has become an alternative TV at this moment, like an entertainment project.

After discovering that he seemed to be reading the comments, the group of people instantly exploded like fireworks. But the original meaningful things were gone, and only various meaningless confessions were left.

He looked away, squinted his eyes slightly, and felt sleepy again.

This kind of sleepiness mixed with coldness... He didn't know how familiar it was to him. He remembered that when he was in high school, he would get through math class every winter without turning on the air conditioner, enduring this sleepiness.

The feeling of wanting to sleep but not being able to sleep is extremely painful.

He stared at the ground in front of him, his thoughts wandering far away. Gradually, the ground he was staring at seemed to become blurry. Then, he felt his eyelids a little sore, so he closed them gently.

[Perfect clearance progress: 90%]

A cool breeze blew in through the gaps in the wooden boards, and Su Mingan opened his eyes.

The light from the sky slowly seeped in, and a circle of firefly-like lights lingered all around. He shook off the hay on his body, stood up, and glanced at the time.

Day 10, noon.

“…”

Slept a little longer.

The perfect clearance progress has inexplicably risen to 90%, and the survival rate is 95%.

It seems that [Stay away from the Zhengjun Square] in the perfect clearance route is very effective.

After just one day of hiding in the basement safely, the data became very promising.

He took this opportunity to merge the Gem of Prophecy and the Eye of Supervision, and then obtained a new skill description:

[(Purple Level) Eye of Supervision (Evolvable): You can implant an Eye of Supervision at any location. The Eye of Supervision can provide you with a 50m*50m field of vision for three consecutive days (the field of vision cannot pass through obstructions). The Eye of Supervision will automatically become invisible after implantation, and cannot be detected by non-scouting skills of the same level. You can only use three Eyes per instance.

Due to the integration of the rare item (prophecy gem), the Eye of Supervision has its own (precognition) effect, which can provide opportunities (blue)/danger (red) prompts in advance. 】

Su Mingan placed the last eye on the spot.

Like inserting a ward in a game, a gem with purple light appeared on the ground. A long stick extended from the bottom. It hit the ground with a "hiss" sound, and then the whole eye gradually disappeared.

At the same time, he also saw the light gradually emerging in his eyes.

The red light, in the shape of an arrow, pointed firmly to the south.

Red represents danger.

Judging from the brightness of this light, it seems like a major crisis.

……south.

He remembered that he was now at the entrance of the town, the northern entrance of the town.

Does the South mean...

He suddenly realized that it seemed too quiet outside during the day.

He went up to the ground and looked towards the town. As expected, there was no one to be seen, not even a trace of a new car. A light layer of snow was floating in the sky, and it was eerily quiet.

He opened the door and walked towards the town. The bungalows on both sides were very quiet. Even the possible coughing was not heard, and there was no smell of smoke coming from the chimneys.

But soon, he saw a group of patrolling soldiers. They were wearing armor and were fully armed. It was obvious at first glance that they should not be in the town.

They seemed to be looking for someone, and they opened the doors and windows roughly and threw out all kinds of things.

Su Mingan quickly stuck to the wall, hid himself, and moved towards the outside of the town.

But soon, he also discovered that there was a circle of soldiers surrounding the town. There were not many of them, but they formed a line and had completely blocked the town.

...Are you here to find me?

He felt the wall and then moved towards the square little by little.

He gradually saw many people.

These townspeople were all surrounded in the square.

The soldiers wearing heavy armor hid their faces under their helmets, like silent warriors.

Their size was extremely intimidating, like small giants, surrounding the skinny and pale townspeople in the middle of the square, holding spears in a circle with the pointed tips pointed at them.

At the bottom of the earthen slope nearby, there were several corpses lying there, including young and middle-aged men, old people, and even a baby. There was a clean hole on their bodies, obviously pierced by a spear. Blood was flowing all over the ground, dyeing the snow completely red.

...The townspeople had obviously resisted. Having just awakened, they were very proud and thought they had a chance to change their fate and fight against those with real abilities... But obviously, the time was too short and the result was unsatisfactory.

Those corpses that were pierced by a bullet and died in a miserable state were obviously the result of this group of armored men killing the chickens to scare the monkeys.

Blood bloomed on the ground like fireworks.

The one hundred or so townspeople who were surrounded were trembling, women were holding their children, the elderly were covering their faces and sighing, and the young and middle-aged were glaring at the group of armored men, but no one dared to step forward.

Next to the armored man stood a taller figure who looked like a small commander. His face was not covered by the helmet, and there was even a big red feather stuck on the helmet.

He leaned sideways against his spear and yawned.

Some soldiers walked out of the encirclement, and the surrounded townspeople immediately squeezed back like boiled dumplings, shouting in panic.

The soldier stretched out his hand and pulled out a random person like catching a fish, and pulled out a young man.

But this young man didn't look manly at all. When he was pulled out, his whole body was shaking like a sieve.

"Sir, sir, please spare me, I really don't know where the man you are looking for is. He was in the square yesterday afternoon, but disappeared this morning..." The burly young man was like a fish on a chopping board in the soldiers' hands. No matter how he struggled, he couldn't move and could only beg for mercy.

"Don't know? I don't know, okay."

The soldier smiled, slowly raised the spear in his hand, and pointed it at his chest:

"It's still the same old rule. Every half hour, I'll kill one person. Kill all of you, and maybe that person will come out."

"Sir, please spare me! I really didn't know. I didn't even make it to the awakening ceremony yesterday afternoon...ah!"

A bloody hole appeared on his chest and blood spurted out.

His scream was short and shrill, and the tail sound quickly dissipated in the wind.

Under the soldiers' spears, life seems as fragile as paper.

Su Mingan paused.
