Chapter 138 135. Talk
"Out! Out! Out! Out!"
The last ten monster corpses were thrown in front of the fat otaku Puji. Horn shouted with red eyes, as if shouting like this would make it easier for the fat otaku to take out good things.
Several of his teammates looked at the horn helplessly, as they only got a bunch of mushrooms and waste magic crystals after the previous 20 draws, which made the horn a little crazy.
It has long been a well-known fact in Yafeng Town that the fat man Puji on the fifth floor can draw lots with monster corpses.
The value of the monster corpses, which were originally useless, has increased significantly, and naturally a new distribution method has emerged.
Just like this guy named Horn, he doesn't want any of the materials he harvested along the way. In exchange, all the remaining corpses of the monsters belong to him, and everyone has to help him transport the corpses of the killed monsters down.
However, in fact, many teams no longer use this allocation method after trying it several times.
The reason is simple. If a teammate breaks down, becomes hysterical or silent on the way back, it will have a negative impact on the morale of the entire team...
The fat guy Puji finally collected all the monster corpses and started to take out the rewards.
Everyone heard the horn's breathing become three times heavier.
Mushrooms, mushrooms, mushrooms, waste magic crystals, mushrooms...
"Where's the grand prize? Where's the grand prize? Give me equipment and high-level magic crystals!"
Several teammates looked at each other and decided to speed up on the return journey to avoid being subjected to the low air pressure of the horn.
“Hit it! Hahahahahahahahaha!”
The almost inhuman laughter of the horn made all three teammates look over in surprise.
He was seen kneeling among a pile of mushrooms and waste magic crystals, holding a dagger with a faint glow in his hands, kissing and crying.
The fact that it has brilliance means that it is at least an attribute equipment, and its value is much greater than what they can earn from going into the dungeon ten times!
This time, no one was worried about the low pressure on the horn. Now the negative emotions were all directed at the three teammates...
However, before they could say anything sarcastic, an extremely miserable, awkward and creepy cry suddenly came from the mushroom forest.
Even Horn, who was still excited, swallowed the "Hahahaha" that came after him and returned to the team with his neck shrunk.
Faced with the unexpected situation, no one wanted to take any risks and quickly retreated towards the stairs.
…
In the mushroom forest, several Pujis pounced on a constantly shaking big Puji and blocked the hole in its mushroom cap.
It was this Puji that made the strange sound just now.
Not only did he scare the adventurers, but even Lin Jun himself was frightened.
Why is it so difficult to say something?
Lin Jun has now reached level eight in [Human Common Language], and thanks to using the DYLAN translation machine to learn, he has mastered most of the basic words.
You will no longer be unable to understand what adventurers are saying.
But the problem is, he can only listen now, but how to speak?
The simplest way is probably to completely parasitize a humanoid creature and then speak through the humanoid creature's mouth.
But that always feels like the same as speaking through Dylan's mouth.
Lin Jun wanted to try whether he could use mushrooms to simulate a sound machine.
Anyway, it is Lin Jun who is personally controlling the machine when it speaks, so there is no skill restriction. All we need to do is modify the inside of Puji to make it suitable for vocalization.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
The vocal opening, which is made by imitating the structure of human throat, can only make a "puff" sound.
Later, it was gradually modified, and the one just now was just one of the failed products.
Lin Jun has decided to change the location, directly to the mushroom forest. Adventurers will sooner or later spread the false rumor that Puji has imprisoned and tortured adventurers in the mushroom forest, which is not good.
The new experimental site was chosen to be under the mushroom forest, in the dungeon that had been dug previously.
As soon as the Pujis came in, a certain hungry vampire viscount squatting in the corner spoke in the demon language reflexively:
"I am a pig that eats nothing."
She thought the meal was finally here, but the Pujis remained indifferent after she said it. Louisa could only shrink back into the corner in disappointment, staring at the Pujis blankly.
By the way, I was so addicted to voice editing that I forgot to feed this guy these days. Vampires are really resistant to hunger!
There happened to be a newly harvested monster corpse, and soon two Puji brought one over and threw it to the vampire.
Come to think of it, shouldn’t vampires have that kind of setting?
Is it possible in this world to lie in a coffin and sleep for a hundred years without eating or drinking?
I'll ask Louisa about this later. Now Lin Jun is more interested in talking.
So Louisa, who had barely eaten only half her fill, huddled in a corner, watching a group of Pujis on the opposite side making ghostly howling sounds from time to time.
At first, I would subconsciously shudder when I heard her, but gradually I got used to it over time. However, my sleep quality in prison became worse, and I was awakened by strange noises from time to time.
If there is any good thing, since the Pujis came here, at least her meals have not been forgotten again...
…
One day, Louisa was awakened by the noise again.
Based on past experience, the sound will not last long, and the next sound will be at least one or two hours later.
She blinked her eyes and prepared to go back to sleep. The more sleep she got, the less hungry she would be.
"Lou... s... s..."
Louisa's eyes suddenly widened.
The voice was twisted and evil, with a sinister echo, and as unpleasant as the sound of stone rubbing against each other.
But the key is that this voice does not appear in the mind!
who?
Who is calling your name?
For a moment, Louisa imagined that a demon with an unpleasant voice was sent to rescue her.
Because no one here knows her name, and the voice in her mind has never asked for her name, the person who can call out her name must be someone from the demon clan!
But this fantasy was shattered in less than a second.
The sound was in the form of a long strip, and it was almost impossible to tell that it was made by a puffing sound.
After failing to imitate the structural sound, Lin Jun completely let himself go.
As the saying goes, a cat can be black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat.
Being able to speak out is a success, there is no need to worry about any standard results.
And this long strip is the first version of the voice, Puji.
The air flows in from the tail, passes through the complex internal structure and finally achieves the effect of speaking.
Of course, since it was a first edition, there were still some issues like echo and only being able to say one or two words at a time.
But isn’t this the first step? Lin Jun believes that with improvements, things will get better and better.
Seeing that the vampire recognized that she was calling her name, Lin Jun controlled her laughter and shouted even more happily.
"Lou...Lou...Lou...Lou...Lou..."
“Ah…Ah——!!!”
Louisa suddenly put her hands on her head, rolled over and screamed.
In the end, he even ran towards the exit without caring about the possible punishment of growing mushrooms.
However, since Lin Jun never let her eat her fill, the two elite Pujis guarding outside easily subdued her and used [Hallucinogenic Spores] to calm her down.
Obviously, there was a little problem with this magic language learning machine. Maybe it had been in the basement for so long that its brain was filled with dust.
How about letting her go mining to get some fresh air?
