59 Worthy of cheer and joy
◎Great, we◎
Qi Qiuxue quickly analyzed the current situation.
The number of monsters is too large, far exceeding the number of players, and their attack power is extremely high, so they cannot be dealt with by simple strategies.
Currently, Li Yiqing only has props but no weapons. Zhu Lan's empathy and Xu Gui's protective shield can basically only be regarded as auxiliary. The only three offensive weapons are her knife, Wu Shanyue's gun, and Lu Jin's grenade.
Wu Shanyue had just used up one of his bullets and currently had five left to use. Lu Jin had five grenades, which had high damage value and a wide range of effect. As long as they were used properly, there was still a great chance of winning.
What's more...the terrain they are currently in is quite advantageous. It is relatively easy to gather the monsters together in this long corridor.
"Lu Jin, throw a grenade first." Facing the first wave of monsters approaching, direct bombing was the best option. "Xu Gui, prepare the protective shield."
"Okay." Xu Gui nodded, and used a protective shield to protect the players while Lu Jin threw the grenade. The power of the grenade should not be underestimated. More than 30 monsters in the front were killed instantly, and the remaining monsters were forced to retreat a few steps because of the air wave of the bomb.
The player, however, was unharmed, and the road ahead was temporarily clear. Rather than being trapped in this small space in front of the door, it would be better to go deeper and reach a larger space.
"Run!" Qi Qiuxue called on everyone to act together. Everyone took advantage of the chaos to leave the place. After a brief moment of distraction, the monsters quickly reacted, turned around and began to move inward.
So Lu Jin threw the grenade again, blowing up two groups of rapidly approaching monsters. So far, about three-fifths of the monsters in the area have died.
But soon, new problems arose.
Qi Qiuxue discovered that these monsters seemed to still have some simple intelligence left. After realizing that gathering together would not only fail to harm the players but would kill them in the explosion, these monsters stopped at the same time.
They began to disperse, some hid briefly in the cells, waiting for an opportunity, some changed their route, jumped onto the ceiling or the surrounding walls, and climbed over from all directions.
They have a pungent mucus flowing on their bodies that is corrosive and sticky, their teeth are sharp and pointed, and their blood-red tongues are long and terrifying.
Lu Jin's scalp tingled as he watched. He wanted to throw a grenade but didn't know where to throw it. Their ammunition was too scarce, and wasting it would be equivalent to wasting everyone's lives.
"Be careful!" Just as Lu Jin was hesitating, a monster was approaching rapidly from above her, opening its bloody mouth, ready to pounce on the human below.
Seeing this, Qi Qiuxue didn't care about anything else and pushed her with her injured right hand. Lu Jin narrowly avoided the monster's attack and staggered backward.
Qi Qiuxue held the knife in her left hand, turned around suddenly, and stabbed the bone knife into the monster's brain before it was about to launch its next attack.
The monster struggled a few times, then collapsed to the ground, turning into a pool of thick water like the other dead monsters.
"Zhang Xue!" Lu Jin gasped in shock and hurried forward to check on Qi Qiuxue's condition. After the blow, Qi Qiuxue's injured wrist was visibly red and swollen again, and even the fingertips had been corroded and some flesh had been corroded away. "Are you okay? I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"I'm fine." The sharp pain in her hand completely drained Qi Qiuxue's right hand of strength. Not only was she unable to hold a knife, even simple activities were difficult for her. However, Qi Qiuxue simply frowned, took a few quick deep breaths, and then completely calmed down: "Be careful."
"Everyone, don't get bitten by them!" She reminded everyone to be careful, and then she raised her knife and killed seven or eight monsters that jumped out from all directions with her intact left hand.
After realizing that the players had more than just grenades and pistols, the monsters slowed down their attack again.
Qi Qiuxue wasn't sure if there was any communication between them. Whether these two changes in strategy were out of instinct or the result of communication between them, but no matter what, if the players wanted to survive, they had to think of a new strategy before them.
"Damn it, what should I do!" Zhu Lan couldn't help cursing again. In previous copies, her abilities were very useful. She could often get important information at critical moments and escape danger.
But now, when it came time to fight with real weapons, she was completely useless. She hated herself for being like this and decided to give up: "How about I attract their attention?"
"I'm going too." Li Yiqing was also suffering. She felt sorry for Qi Qiuxue's experience, and also hated herself for not being able to help. "I..."
But Qi Qiuxue shook her head at this moment. She suddenly had a new idea: "No need."
She glanced at Zhu Lan and said, "Your empathy can only work on one person. Once the chip is attached to that person, you can see everything they see in the next hour, right?!"
Zhu Lan was confused: "Yes, you asked this..."
Qi Qiuxue interrupted her: "What about the other way around?!"
Zhu Lan: "What?"
Qi Qiuxue quickly explained it to her. Based on her previous experience, she discovered that there can only be one person being cast, but there seems to be no specific limit on the number of viewers. "If, on the other hand, you are the one being cast, can there be many viewers?"
"That's the theory." Zhu Lan nodded, instantly understanding her purpose. "You mean I should provide a false perspective, projecting some insignificant images in front of the monsters to distract their vision!"
Qi Qiuxue opened her lips and confirmed, "That's what I mean."
"Okay, I'll try!" If Zhu Lan hadn't met Qi Qiuxue, she really wouldn't have thought that her ability could be used in this way. She took out a large number of chips from her backpack, debugged them as quickly as possible, and distributed them to everyone.
"Please, please stick the chips on them while being careful."
"Got it!" Everyone nodded and dispersed like the monsters. They attached the chips to various parts of the remaining monsters' bodies in various ways. After about a few minutes, everything was done.
Zhu Lan found a relatively safe position and fixed her sight on the white wall in front of her. Qi Qiuxue stayed beside her to protect her at any time in case any fish that had escaped the net rushed up to attack her.
In an instant, the image in Zhu Lan's vision lit up in front of the monsters. Because there were too many people participating in empathy this time, the system reduced the time limit for using the ability.
"Ten minutes, only ten minutes." She whispered to the other players, "Hurry up."
"Got it." The remaining four people nodded and took out the ordinary guns they had confiscated from upstairs. Even though these guns could not directly cause damage to the monsters, they could destroy the surrounding pipes and buildings, and even interfere with the monsters.
Those monsters had lost their correct vision, and no matter which direction they looked, all they could see were white walls. They groped and roared in confusion, and could only move forward by smelling the players' scent.
"Why are you so timid? Get out here!" Lu Jin was still concerned about Qi Qiuxue's injury and had a strong hostility towards these monsters. She shot at everything that could be used with her gun, including the pouring disinfectant, the gas gushing from the pipes, and the equipment that collapsed without support. She used various methods to force those monsters who were waiting for an opportunity to move out of the cell and gather together.
When the time was right, Lu Jin took out the grenade again and launched the last two bombings, and the remaining monsters were all cleared out by Wu Shanyue with his own weapons.
The timing was just right. It took them ten minutes to sound a beautiful death knell for these monsters.
"Is it over?" Wu Shanyue collapsed to the ground, her hands shaking belatedly. Lu Jin leaned over and pulled her up. The excessive tension, panic, hatred, excitement and other emotions were gradually fading away. At this moment, they only felt tired and powerless.
"There are still two floors." Qi Qiuxue and Zhu Lan walked over to the few people and joined them. They had no idea about the spatial structure of the remaining two floors, the types of monsters, their danger and aggressiveness.
But no matter what, the victory before her was still worth a brief cheer and joy. Qi Qiuxue raised her lips and said sincerely, "That's great."
"us."
