Chapter 223
Feng Ruowang looked at the black-haired hunter who sat down on a random log in front of him, feeling a little overwhelmed.
This hunter is already well-known in the country, and almost no one is unfamiliar with him. All the information about him after his appearance has been dug up by his fanatical fans. Even the fact that he was mistaken for an employee of a pyramid scheme or organization has left traces on the Internet and is dug up from time to time for archaeology. But Feng Ruowang had never thought that he would be able to have such close contact with the other person.
"Aren't we going out?"
Feng Ruowang hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to ask.
Although there are different analyses and opinions about Su Xingyuan's personality, it shouldn't be a bad idea to ask a small question, right?
"Ah, did I forget to tell you?" The black-haired hunter raised his head from the barbecue and said in a light voice, "I originally wanted to take you out first, but after thinking about it carefully, a spring outing here might not be a bad idea."
Feng Ruowang: “…”
What a beautiful head!
Is this the reason why you chose to keep the last monster alive when you could have killed it with one punch?
He was silent for two seconds, then continued, "It sounds like something bad happened outside... What happened outside?"
"The gods have released five natural disasters. Now the outside world is experiencing the first disaster, but the situation has been contained." Su Xingyuan patiently answered his question: "There are only six hours left before the disaster ends. You can stay here for now."
His eyes lightly swept over the jungle monster that dared not move and had only one breath left. "When the time is right, I will kill it."
At that time, the portal will naturally open.
These people had no means of judging how much time had passed in the outside world, and only he could see the task countdown in the upper left corner. He had originally intended to take the people out directly, but after wiping out the monster village and discovering some collected wild monster meat...
Su Xingyuan: Let's grill it and try it.jpg
Feng Ruowang and several teammates looked at each other and saw some helplessness in each other's eyes, but according to the black-haired hunter's words, it would be a good thing not to leave the portal at this time. Such top hunters would never deceive them, and they also thought that there was nothing to be plotted against them, so they put aside their worries and started to dig out food to fill their stomachs.
They had been fleeing and fighting all the time and had no time to rest or eat, and were already starving at this time. The black-haired hunter did not pay any more attention to them because of their actions. He only focused on his own affairs, which made them more relaxed.
But...how could the real world suddenly encounter a disaster?
He also has relatives and friends in reality, so he can't help but worry. After all, although he believes in Su Xingyuan, he also knows one thing, that is, unfortunate things will always happen, and even a savior cannot save everyone. The Xingyuan Hunter obviously understood this very well.
Xu Banmeng also once said that Su Xingyuan was the person who could best bear everyone's expectations and not be crushed by the pressure of the so-called "savior", because he would never be too harsh on himself because of this, and he would never let himself fall into such a predicament.
Just as Feng Ruowang was distracted, he saw the black-haired hunter suddenly raised his head.
"Are you still worried?" Su Xingyuan finished the barbecue in a few seconds, clapped his hands, and seemed to look at the air in front of him: "Then let's go out, but before going out, you'd better put some powder on your bodies first."
Before Feng Ruowang could be stunned by the unexpected tolerance and sensitivity of the black-haired hunter, the powdery substance on the opposite side came towards them mercilessly like cold air, mixed with magic power that absolutely could not be ignored, and fell on them.
The portal opened in front of him at the same time.
【Countdown: 4h36min】
"By the way," the black-haired hunter walking in front turned his head, "Don't mention me when you are outside."
Although the gods' attention may be on Leafa now, there is no guarantee that they will pay attention to these guys coming out of the portal, which may cause some minor trouble.
"We know." Feng Ruowang and the others nodded repeatedly.
Su Xingyuan put on his invisibility cloak again, and when he felt a little better, he headed for the next portal marked on the map. This portal is of a lower level, and the hunters can't get out simply because they are lost in the maze. Su Xingyuan killed the monster before them without even showing his face. He just quietly threw some insect repellent powder on them when they passed by the flowers.
He continued to work in this way on and off, and when there were three hours left in the countdown, he finally saw the scene of the next disaster in "The Book of Wisdom of Carterfield".
It's raining.
Su Xingyuan initially thought it was a flood. Even though the population of this world was too large and the territory was vast, combined with the racial advantages of the mermaids, as long as their magic power was strong enough, they could get through this disaster relatively easily.
But two seconds later, when the picture became clearer, he keenly discovered that it did not seem to be ordinary rain.
There was a hint of blood-red in the turbid rain, and as time went by, this hint of blood-red became more and more obvious, and one could almost smell a familiar smell of blood.
In just a few seconds, the rain falling from the sky had completely turned into thick blood - if it was just blood rain, it would be fine, but these blood-like substances were like viruses that spread very quickly. Just by falling into the water, the water quality began to undergo strange changes, and humans who came into contact with this blood began the process of demonization visibly.
The next second, the picture disappeared, Su Xingyuan blinked and closed the book.
Su Xingyuan: "So it turns out that we can still start the doomsday zombie scenario?"
"Dungeon Adventure" instantly turns into "Survivor".
Judging from the scenes in the prophecy, not only is the blood contagious, the demonic energy carried by these monsters also has the same effect, which is far higher than that leaked from the portal. Although Su Xingyuan can already perfectly intimidate monsters, the problem is that humans who have turned into demons will most likely be judged as dead in this mission.
Su Xingyuan opened the portal and returned to his [home], used [Thousand Mile Voice Transmission] to call Leafa back, completed the apparent identity change, and walked out as Su Xingyuan.
His condition has almost recovered, but those gods should know at a glance that something is wrong. I hope they can regain their confidence and come down to settle the matter as soon as possible, thus saving him the trouble of having to come to his door later.
With two and a half hours left before the disaster, countries have issued emergency notices prohibiting people from going out, drinking and coming into contact with tap water and rainwater after the locust plague ends. In the last two and a half hours, people should prepare bottled water, mineral water and river water, prepare food, and close doors and windows.
"Monsters transformed by hunters are more dangerous, so this time do not send hunters to maintain order or deal with humans who accidentally become demons."
Some hunters do not have the ability to stably maintain magic power for a long time to form a barrier around their bodies. Once a mistake occurs, Su Xingyuan will have to do more work.
He said to Ji Tianshi and Ning Baiquan, "I can locate and resolve them as quickly as possible, so I will take over this part of the task. However, it is not clear how many days this rain will last, so you'd better send people to distribute the stored supplies now."
After explaining the precautions for the next disaster, Su Xingyuan returned to his [home] and found the old wizard in the human town who had once made him an enchanted black robe, and asked for a batch of newly made cloth that could block rain.
In addition, similar products are also sold in the game system’s mall, but Su Xingyuan has not taken any action for the time being. He plans to wait and see the situation of the blood rain before making any plans.
The last three hours were spent smoothly constructing various safe houses around the world using materials piled in warehouses.
When the countdown officially reached "0", he opened the game panel.
[Congratulations on successfully surviving the locust plague! 】
[-The dense swarms of locusts finally disappeared in the sky. You tentatively tried to walk out the door, but found that some wet liquid was dripping from the air.
[You raised your head and tried to trace the source of the liquid, but saw that the place where the locusts disappeared was dark, but that was no longer the influence of the swarm, but a real blood-red dark cloud. You find that raindrops have also dripped into your eyes. You reached out your hand and rubbed it...there seemed to be a hint of pink on your fingers. 】
[Has entered the second disaster - blood rain]
Current death toll: 4876
Su Xingyuan glanced at the description and then skipped the following content.
If he hadn't reminded her, this prelude would have actually happened in reality, and then a more troublesome disaster would have occurred. And if we can just control the infection, this disaster will be halfway accomplished, and then there will only be one problem left.
[Countdown: Seven Days]
Su Xingyuan's gaze fell on this "seven days".
Does this countdown refer to the countdown for "stopping the rain" or the countdown for the end of all the negative effects caused by this disaster?
Based on the gods' certainty that these disasters would cause severe damage to the human world... he was more inclined to the latter.
Su Xingyuan closed the window and just in the time it took to browse the details, the death toll suddenly exceeded 5,000.
Player:.
As expected, if one is not careful, the target of the mission will die very quickly.
After Su Xingyuan covered his body with magic power, the map area in the upper left corner of his field of vision expanded.
On the map, red dots representing hostile units popped up like mushrooms after a rain. Obviously, with such a large population base, no matter how many times they are reminded, they will become the first group of people infected due to various reasons.
他提起刀,沒有任何情緒起伏地開始了擊殺。
十一月二十號下午六點。
宿星原在E國塔尖蹲下,血紅色的雨水因為魔力的隔絕而在他的周圍展開一層粉紅的屏障。黑發獵人手中的長刀被雨水沖刷得锃亮,而被他關注着的死亡人數的數字跳動也終于逐漸變得穩定。
“這次開場就減員了快兩萬人啊……”
而且還是他把不少易感染的高危分子強制性拉進了“安全屋”裏的結果。
宿星原通過小地圖遠程眺望了一下自己的那些安全屋,與安全屋裏的人們。
雖然勉強保住了命,但看起來他們都十分敢怒不敢言。
救世主對此頗有微詞。時間緊迫,他已經十分努力在搞一個能活人的房間了,只不過是沒有門沒有窗戶沒有床也沒有水龍頭和洗浴設施一個房間住二十個人而已,他不是還在每個房間都安了個馬桶的嗎?游戲商城販賣的馬桶簡單快捷安裝即用,不用沖水就可以自潔——雖然宿星原并不理解為什麽游戲商城要賣這種東西,但聽起來也有幾分高級。
如果不是徐半夢寧百泉和律師小姐他們婉拒了這份禮物,他倒還想先給熟悉的人搞一套商城家具全套來着。
至于食物和能喝的水他則會親自送達,在安全方面絕對不需要有任何擔憂。
七天嘛,忍一忍就過去了。
【死亡人數:27437】
宿星原看了一眼,把驅蟲粉末撒在居民區附近。
驅蟲粉末在普通昆蟲上只會發揮最基礎的驅逐功效,對生态的破壞并不嚴重,宿星原把上一場災難裏遺留下來的多餘道具廢物利用,就是在減少可能攜帶有雨水的蟲子進入住宅感染了人類的事情發生。
他自己搭建的房屋絕對是鐵桶一塊不用質疑,裏外都別想到對面,但普通的建築絕對是沒有辦法擋得住各種各樣的昆蟲的。如果不是血水緊挨着蝗災,幾乎全球都有驅蟲粉末的殘留,恐怕現在的死亡人數早就控制不住了。
在全球性的天災面前,十萬人真的只是一個很小的數字。
接下來還有三道災難,如果實在不行,他也不是不可以考慮一些比較極端的做法。
黑發獵人微微垂眸,處理完這一片區域後站起身來,看向傳來其它動靜的某個方向。
在他強化了無數倍的視野之中,已經魔化了的紅名怪物從房門內走出,遵循着本能移動到了鄰居家的家門前,将眼球對上了門上的貓眼。
“……!”
同樣聽到動靜,悄悄通過貓眼觀察外界的屋主人直接被驚得一個趔趄,心髒狂跳,大腦一瞬間空白。
她身旁的女孩看到母親這樣的模樣也被吓了一跳,雖然記住了家長的叮囑死死不敢哭出聲,也還是忍不住在呼吸之間帶上了點稍顯尖銳的嗓音。
在門內傳出細小的嗚咽後,它瞬間興奮了起來,變得黏膩的血紅色表皮的潰爛開始加速。它的整個軀體幾乎都貼在了門扉上,幾乎液體化地尋找着能夠進入其中的孔隙,在即将從門縫中硬擠進去之前,一只無法觸碰的手拍了拍它曾經是肩膀的那個位置。
突然感知到人類氣息的怪物興奮地轉過頭。
沒有佩戴任何雨具,全身上下卻依舊幹幹淨淨的黑發獵人,朝着它露出一個随和的笑容。
“不可以打擾我的任務對象哦。”
話音未落,火焰升騰。
對付這種等級的怪物甚至用不了一秒,黑發獵人神色自然地忽視了地面上的一小捧灰塵,用足夠穩定的聲線對門內的人說道:“請盡量遠離門窗——如果你們覺得擔憂,歡迎來到我打造的安全屋,吃住免費而且超級安全哦。”
門內的母女在鎮定下來後似乎有一瞬間的猶豫和心動,眼看就要在沖動之下答應了,母親突然有一種福至心靈的預感,讓她下意識地婉拒了。
宿星原遺憾離場。
後來發現黑發獵人建造的安全屋是怎樣有效且高效的母親:……果然免費的才是最貴的。
宿星原暫且還不知道又一個被安利安全屋的居民心裏到底在想什麽,他正處理又一個處于淪陷邊緣的區域——只要觸碰到雨水就有很大可能被魔化,這種情況下想要獨善其身的條件簡直苛刻,宿星原要做的事情很多,還要時刻注意小地圖上的情況,也就沒有第一災的時候還能抽空養個病的悠閑。等他回過神來,已經是第三天的中午了。
——這就是為什麽基建小游戲是殺時間利器。
宿星原看着自己建造的又一批安全屋感嘆。
一旁慕名來參觀學習的方沐劍:“……”
他的聲音帶着點顫抖:“……這就是你的‘安全屋’?”
安全是安全了,等裏面的人出來絕對會有心理陰影的吧!你這個随心所欲的家夥真的會被原諒的嗎!
方沐劍早就從寧百泉的微妙沉默中看出宿星原的安全屋可能有點炸裂,但他當時覺得和命比起來什麽都不重要,現在看來……他還是膚淺了。
女生房間還好,男性房間簡直都可以疊羅漢了吧!宿星原到底是怎麽把他們放進去的啊!
哪怕是像素小游戲裏養像素小人都不帶這樣的吧!
特別是在經過某一個房間,聽到裏面幽幽傳出的一句“兄弟你好香”時,方沐劍臉都綠了。
“是你非要來的,來了你又不高興。”
善解人意的黑發獵人嘆了口氣。
方沐劍:“……”身為一個如果來了就要待在這裏的男人他很難高興得起來啊!
“前面的那幾個房間似乎正常一點?”
定了定神,方沐劍重拾了自己的好奇心,往更裏面的房間看去。
那裏面的人數就正常了一點,起碼個人可以維持自己1x1的小格子,保證同一個房間內人的互不侵犯原則,但當方沐劍看到房間裏的那唯一一個馬桶時,他還是忍不住沉默了一瞬。
“因為這裏是後面稍微空閑下來建造的,時間不那麽緊迫,當然也就不會一口氣放很多人進來了。”黑發獵人爽朗地說道:“你知道的,材料和資金都有限,作為一個合格的管理人員需要把手上的物資效益最大化……我的意思是等這場災難過去可以把安全屋敲掉拿零部件賣錢。”
方沐劍麻木地說道:“我覺得……你保留它們可能會整賺錢。”
到時候直接牌子一立,标簽一打,讓人來參觀不得不前往宿星原安全屋的倒黴蛋們幸運而又不幸的七天……
等方沐劍恍惚着拿着一袋驅蟲粉末回到獵人協會,總覺得自己對黑發獵人的理解又上升了一個等級。
寧百泉無言地拍了拍他的肩膀。
“畢竟是特殊時期……”寧百泉冷靜地分析道:“況且有曾經的宿星原捏臉打底,我想他們的精神狀态應該是這幾代裏最強韌的一批。”
所以應該沒什麽問題……吧?
這七天趕緊過去吧他受不了了。
寧百泉捏了捏眉心:“宿星原的房間确實足夠嚴密地保護了相當大一批易感染人群,他們的食物和水也全部由宿星原獵人負責,全世界的壓力都大大減輕,他幹得那些事完全可以當做戰時需要,不用太在意。”
雖然有些人很可能會事後試圖以此來攻讦宿星原,但那位恐怕根本不會在意,這也是他為什麽足夠随心所欲。想來也是,地面上的螞蟻怎麽可能威脅到天上的蒼鷹,對方連注意到它們都費勁。
而此時的A國會議室中卻是一片寂靜。
“我們應該已經徹底得罪宿星原了,為什麽他還……”
一位官員頗有些惴惴不安地打破了沉默。
明明他們是最看不爽出身C國的宿星原的一批人,卻也是最相信他的那一批,在發現宿星原告知會有天災降臨時就已經準備絕望地自力更生了。畢竟在他們的想法中,宿星原絕對不會去管A國變成什麽樣子,恐怕A國滅了,他還要高興地放兩個煙花禮炮慶祝一下。
但事實上,宿星原幫忙了,還幫得一視同仁。
A國高層反而更加恐慌。
從蝗災到這次的血水災,宿星原沒有任何區別對待的行為,仿佛曾經A國幹過的那些破事壓根不存在。但過往的事實又說明,宿星原絕不可能是什麽不記仇的人,要說他為了天下寧願放下仇恨一心抵抗災難,網上的人信了還正常,他們……
聽聽就行了。
宿星原和那種往往出現在正統救世主身上的形容詞半點都不搭邊啊!
簡直要多詭異有多詭異好不好,甚至有不少官員在外面還在下血雨時就克服了恐懼,開始悄悄計算自己的小金庫,試圖在未來可能有的宿星原訛錢事件中逃過一劫——畢竟這怎麽看都是以後必定會收取利息的前兆。
就看最近的例子,當初宿星原那一手“六百萬魔晶攻略傳送門”可是震撼了不少人。
The high-ranking officials of Country A, who had no idea that all of them were the targets of Su Xingyuan's mission, were trembling with fear. Su Xingyuan did not point it out. He occasionally turned around to admire their expressions, and then went somewhere else with a refreshed look.
Finally, the seven days that were extremely difficult for everyone except Su Xingyuan were about to pass.
The black-haired hunter opened the Book of Wisdom of Carterfield again.
The time is almost up, and it's time to see what will come next.
