Chapter 42: Main Quest: Kill Wuji Gu
"It seems that this monster, is the 'hound' that they are talking about."
Just such a far feeling, Wuji Gu can already feel the aura of the monster that has not yet burrowed out of the amazing, and the mirror world of those Wuji Gu with a kitchen knife can just solve the monster is completely different.
This so-called hound, obviously not ordinary people can deal with, even Wuji Gu, feel that they will not be good against.
"What the hell should we do now?"
Wuji Gu stood still, he did not panic, after all, panic does not help.
And at this time he also has no place to escape, after all, he is very experienced in ghosts, as early as when the shadow appears strange movement, it is felt that the space inside the house has changed, want to run is impossible.
"It's better for me to study this notebook." Wuji Gu immediately opened the notebook in front of him and read it, trying to find the monster's weaknesses in it.
The ghost in the kitchen thought the creature's weakness was fire, but he has now apparently been killed by the monster, so there must be something wrong with the direction of his resistance, which might be documented in this notebook.
The other side of the Yuanfei Dai hiding behind the locker has been scared stiff, he originally entered here in the dark, is to take advantage of the opportunity to Wuji Gu and figure out what the other side is going to do ...... who knows things actually immediately developed to such a critical degree!
But at such a critical time, Wuji Gu was still reading his notebook. What's wrong with this guy, why is he so calm?
Now the room is so cramped, if Wuji Gu dies, he will be next in line! Yuanfei Dai's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
No, this guy must have some way of dealing with it! The man could not help but think so, and unknowingly actually put his hope in Wuji Gu.
'He came back again, but did not kill us who had betrayed him, only let us go into the woods.'
''But this is not the end ...... everything in the woods has changed, they are all dead, only I am still alive, he will not let me go!
''Lately, I always have a feeling that I'm being watched by something, what is it? No, if I can't find it out, I'll definitely die here.''
''It's that monster! It appeared, and if I hadn't been holding a torch at the time, it might have killed me ...... Damn it, this place can't stay any longer.'
As for the back pages, they have all been torn out, apparently the same pages found in the kitchen.
Wuji Gu : "......"
...... No wonder that person died straight away! The only information that can be learned from this notebook is that they are just betraying someone, as for other useful things, it is the same as the remnants of the pages in the kitchen.
Could it be that the most important thing in this room is just that photo?
So thinking, Wuji Gu put away the notebook and photos, and looked at the monster not far away, which had already burrowed most of its body.
This monster simply can not use the word hound to describe the hideous face, huge body, crimson eyes, and sharp fangs and constantly downward flowing with corrosive saliva, was bitten then the basic soul to the West.
"Now I'm on my own."
Wuji Gu turned his head to look around, his heart had a plan, then looked up at the monster, took out his body can still use a few props, will be hanging on the pocket watch ready to open, the rope is also placed in an extremely easy place to start. The ghost mastering technique also secretly moved up, began to call around can still be summoned to the souls of the dead.
He has done what he can do, and then everything is left to fate.
Yuanfei Dai, who was hiding, was already stunned, he could see at a glance that Wuji Gu was actually trying to fight the monster in front of him, how is this possible! Just by looking at Wuji Gu's thin body, you can already see that it is very unreliable, not a bite by the monster to death ......
The next moment, the monster finally emerged from the shadow, but not directly to Wuji Gu side, but roared towards the cabinet by the door.
The cabinet was instantly turned into a pile of broken boards, revealing the person hidden inside.
"Crap!!! How is it to my side!" Yuanfei Dai screamed miserably and then scurried out, scared out of his mind, but he was at least a mid-level copy of the player, there is enough experience, the body subconsciously opened the props on his body, and then a light coalesced into a shield so covered him.
Wuji Gu was also confused by this sudden development, "?" Hmm? Who is this extra person?
The monster's teeth bit down hard on the shield, and with a crackling sound, cracks spread out on the shield, which obviously could not last long.
"Shit, I'm definitely going to die." Yuanfei Dai was about to cry when he saw this sight, but at that moment, Wuji Gu's voice over there sounded abruptly.
"It's okay, hold on a little longer, I'll come to your rescue soon!"
Yuanfei Dai simply can not believe their ears, the general public should take this opportunity to run away, even this copy can only survive 10 people, not to fall on the well is good, but that Wuji Gu actually said to save him?
Although they were previously mocking Yuanzhou Lu is not too kind, but who would not be moved when the rescued person becomes himself!
A time Yuanfei Dai's mentality changed rapidly, looking at Wuji Gu tears that are brushed down.
Wuji Gu took a deep breath, snapped forward, and then kicked the monster hard in the back.
The original ordinary people attack certainly can not cause any impact on such a monster, but Yuanfei Dai clearly see this monster's body in this impact are a stiff, and then issued a roar of fury.
After attracting the monster's hatred, Wuji Gu quickly carried the oil lamp on the table and ran towards the place where there was a lot of debris.
The monster has completely forgotten that there is a prey here, but also with very fast speed to catch up with Wuji Gu, in this small room, the distance between the monster and Wuji Gu instantly became extremely close.
"Danger!" Yuanfei Dai subconsciously warned, his heart sweating for Wuji Gu.
"I know. It is now." Wuji Gu had already run to the place he had just watched, and opened the pocket watch he was holding directly to the monster.
The light suddenly lit up, and the youthful figure that vaguely appeared stopped the monster's movements for a moment.
" Sidun Ao , thanks a lot."
In the nick of time, Wuji Gu quickly tied the rope around the monster's neck, while throwing the oil lamp in his hand into the pile of debris.
Most of these miscellaneous items are easy to burn things such as cotton wool and pages, instant fire rose to the sky, the monster's eyes emerged with a few moments of fear, and immediately wanted to retreat.
"Don't think you can still run." Wuji Gu spoke coldly and blocked the monster's body hard right from behind.
Under his amazing power, the monster actually failed to struggle out and could only keep being burned by the flames.
Wuji Gu has understood that the use of flame to deal with the monster is indeed correct, but the ordinary torch is simply impossible to kill it at once, but also by the monster to seize the opportunity to kill back. The ghost in the kitchen was probably killed this way.
Hard to resist a monster, which is also a bit strenuous for Wuji Gu to say, cold sweat on the forehead are flowing down, but he has other preparations.
"Come out!"
Along with Wuji Gu's voice, several phantom, unconscious spirits emerged around them, reaching out to hold the monster's body down.
Yuanfei Dai saw this scene are stunned, he could not help but be grateful that he did not directly to Wuji Gu, look at the situation, where ordinary people can kill Wuji Gu ah!
The monster's body became close to illusory in the flames, hissing and roaring sounds shook the entire room, even the walls shook in its struggle.
"What are you still standing there for?" Wuji Gu looked at the person standing by the door, and his words took on a rare hint of urgency.
Yuanfei Dai suddenly seemed to react as if abruptly, also hurriedly rushed over, body top behind the monster. Only at such a close distance did he feel the power of the monster, and looked at Wuji Gu's eyes with a little more admiration - he had completely forgotten what he came here for.
Soon, the monster turned into a wisp of light smoke amidst the flames, and the strange feeling of the whole space finally disappeared, but the fire did not stop and had spread to the whole room.
Wuji Gu breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, it was so thrilling just now, even he felt almost an accident.
"Looking at the situation now, it seems we have to go quickly." Wuji Gu looked to Yuanfei Dai next to him and naturally spoke, "Follow me down."
"Oh oh!" Yuanfei Dai somehow managed to feel a big brother-like feeling in Wuji Gu's body, subconsciously nodded and also followed behind the other party.
......
The two soon arrived in the kitchen, and Wuji Gu showed the picture he got directly into the void and spoke, "I've got what you want, now, can you tell me everything?"
The blood in the kitchen suddenly became bright red, a hand struggling out of it, this picture can be put directly into the horror film are no problem, Yuanfei Dai can not help but tremble.
Wuji Gu thought about it, or directly pull this hand a hard ...... ghost was violently caught out, he looked at Wuji Gu, the face of the look with a few subtlety.
Damn ghosts do not want to face it, every time such an appearance!
"It's okay, no need to thank me." Wuji Gu spoke blandly in the face of the ghost's glare, "I just thought we were all in a hurry."
The ghost was originally very annoyed, but when he saw the group photo in Wuji Gu's hand, he was a little surprised, "You actually really got it, how is it possible, clearly there is that ...... upstairs"
"If you say it's the monster named Hound, it's already been taken care of by us." Wuji Gu opened his mouth.
The ghost looked shocked, as if he heard something extremely incredible, then but shook his head, can not help but smile bitterly, "is with flame? But that hound is not so good to kill, can do this, you guys are already too much better than me ......"
Yuanfei Dai : "......" I don't know why there is a sense of shame, he is obviously just playing the sauce.
"In that case, then I will also tell you everything about what happened. But, do you really want to listen?" The ghost's tone was much more gruff.
Yuanfei Dai heard here abruptly understood what, a pull Wuji Gu, shocked to speak: "This is a hidden mission!"
"Oh, what's wrong with that?" Wuji Gu nodded, he could certainly see that.
Yuanfei Dai looked a little excited, but with some trepidation, "Hidden missions are not available in every copy, but as long as you can complete them, you will definitely get amazing benefits. However, hidden quests can also raise the difficulty of the entire copy! It makes it easy for people to die in the copy."
"The hidden task of this copy may not be easy, be sure to be careful ......"
But in reality, everyone enters the copy is to fight for their lives, almost no one at all will be willing to give up the benefits of the hidden mission, anyway, maybe one day all will die.
"I want to hear it." Wuji Gu looked at the ghost and spoke firmly, "Tell me everything."
Yuanfei Dai thought to himself, "Surely, a strong man like Wuji Gu is not likely to give up.
In fact, all Wuji Gu thought was that it was impossible for him not to continue his investigation since things had come to this point anyway, and his OCD would not be able to bear it if he did not know all the truth.
"Since you insist like this." The ghost sighed, "Then I'll talk to you. In fact, there are no longer any living people existing on this island, and even you, who are not really living ...... to be precise, should be souls in the middle of the gap between life and death, unfortunately brought to this island."
"What?" Yuanfei Dai heard here are dumbfounded for a moment, although he immediately saw the island npc those do not look like humans, but how even the player settings are not living.
"So that's it ......" Wuji Gu, on the other hand, started to think about what convenience this setting could offer to him.
"But in the past it was not like this, this island was originally just a hunting ground used by the nobles to pursue excitement and catch live people as prey. But they don't kill all of them every time, they only kill part of the prey. After all, the living are not so easy to get." The ghost said, "And I, too, was once such a prey."
Wuji Gu nodded, that's what they thought the island was set up for, after all, that's what it said in the introduction.
"Originally, we should have died like ordinary prey, but that day, he appeared." The ghost's expression was full of complexity, as if he had a good feeling for the man, but with fear and regret, "It was a very kind man full of justice, who not only did not want to become prey himself, but also tried to save others ...... because he was so powerful that everyone saw in him the hope of living.
"But what he didn't expect was that he would end up being betrayed by his closest partner."
Wuji Gu and Yuanfei Dai are silent, after all, they can clearly realize that the person who betrayed the others is probably the ghost in front of them.
As for the one who was betrayed, 80% of them are the stern ghost boss of this copy.
"Because he challenged the dignity of the nobles and killed many fighters. The owner of the island held a grudge against him and ordered that if he could kill him, everyone on this occasion would get the treasure and get out alive."
The ghost said here, looking more and more struggling, "originally believed in his crowd, struggled at once, after all, no matter what, rebellion against the nobility is too difficult to achieve the goal, but kill him ...... is not so difficult. Just everyone on the surface still remains the same as usual."
Yuanfei Dai's eyes became complicated. In such a place, it is normal that such good people would get such an ending, but still one has to feel uncomfortable.
Wuji Gu just listened quietly, subconsciously picked up the picture in his hand and looked at the man in the middle.
Although his face could not be seen, it was clear that the people around him really trusted him when this photo was taken. But this trust did not last.
"Finally, he was then poisoned by those closest to him, and died outright." The ghost spoke: "And those people also got the property promised by the nobleman and got on the boat to leave, thinking they were about to be free."
"But these, the next day, changed completely." Fear surfaced on the ghost's face, "The ship's crew died as much as they could, and the ship returned to the port of that island. As for everyone on the island ...... were already all dead. Not just dead, but their ghosts are going to be tortured here for the rest of their lives."
"Those people's lives were saved, but they were also sent to the woods to live a life of fear, waiting for a hunt, and even the hunters who came this time, are no longer alive."
"The one who caused all of this is the man ......"
[Because the player learns the truth about this island. The conditions were met to trigger the hidden mission: liberate this cursed island]
[Because of the hidden task, the difficulty of the copy will also be increased for the player alone, so please be prepared for it].
[Also please note that player Wuji Gu is now not sharing the same main quest with others].
When Wuji Gu heard this, he already had a bad feeling.
Next to Yuanfei Dai look no change, apparently he was involved in everything also heard the truth, but still did not trigger the hidden task, just over there think this development is really big happy.
Of course, it would be perfect if they were not the players being hunted now.
In fact, to trigger this hidden task, there is another major setting, that is, you must be a person without evil in mind.
Of course it's hard to tell what's on someone else's mind, even the system can't do it, but if you purify the ghost outside the house, you'll be able to get a piece of paper, that's proof.
This condition is already incredibly tricky, after all, want to purify ghosts but the general public can not do things, unless there is a purification technique or other similar props.
Then you have to go to the kitchen to take the ghost's mission, and finally go upstairs again to successfully evade the hounds. Complete this series of conditions to be able to trigger the hidden mission.
Wuji Gu has done all of them, and in a way, this is not a coincidence, but a necessity, after all, he was originally a person with such a character, this hidden task is as if it is tailor-made for him in general.
"So that's it. I see." Wuji Gu looked at the ghost in front of him, "But now this cabin may have to be burned down, what will happen to you who stay here?"
"Just continue to stay on this island, I guess." The ghost spoke, with a bitterness in its voice, "Anyway, that's the punishment I deserve."
"Hmm." Wuji Gu nodded, turned around, and prepared to leave.
He did not mean to forcibly purify each other, what's more, from the situation of this island, it seems that these partners who betrayed the villainous boss are probably not so easy to purify, and their situation may be the same as the ghosts on the last cruise ship, which is already part of the whole island.
To liberate these people, you can only target this island.
The ghost disappeared into the blood, Yuanfei Dai rushed to follow, now he already felt safe only around Wuji Gu.
"By the way, I was going to say that before." Wuji Gu looked at him with a few moments of confusion on his face, "Who are you?"
Yuanfei Dai : "......" is only now asking this question!
-------
Inside the mansion on the cliff.
The crowd in the hall had fallen silent, looking at the master of the mansion with different expressions.
They are not originally from this island, but were invited to participate in the hunt guests, did not expect to suddenly hear about the host's past in this way, it is really a little embarrassing, and even to worry about whether they will be silenced.
"I really didn't expect that there would be someone else who could make it this far." The mansion owner spoke indifferently, his eyes coldly looking at the screen in front of him, "What a surprise to me."
The others thought to themselves that this cold expression doesn't look like a surprise no matter how you look at it!
"That's true." One person spoke nervously, "This prey is also doing very strong, actually able to find a way to kill the hounds, his strength is at the peak in this group of prey, at this rate, he will definitely be able to get that last spot."
"And this prey has been actually not hurt others ...... is not really easy for this game. According to his strength, it's not hard to think of a killer." Another person also said, he can't help but have appreciation for this prey in his heart.
Especially in this case, Wuji Gu actually saved several times, is simply shocking.
And what they dare not say is that such Wuji Gu actually resembles the past owner of the house ......
"This is a violation of the rules." The mansion owner said, "Since he already knows about my past, it is impossible to think of leaving so simply."
Others did not dare to say a word, have looked at the mansion owner, thinking in the heart do not know whether they can still save their lives this time ...... they are also really unlucky, originally but to see something interesting, the results may actually have to ride on their own.
"Now, the rules of the game have changed." The master of the mansion stood up and spoke with a cold smile, "As long as someone is able to kill him, I will let all the prey leave alive and be able to receive the gift of the original winner."
The people around are sucking in a breath of cold air.
The mansion owner's cold blue eyes stared at the Wuji Gu in the picture with a cold look as if he was talking to some corpse, "Even with this, can you still hold on?"
That's right, someone as naive as this simply can't live in this place.
He is about to make the person in front of him understand this matter.
-------
Inside the hall, the men were still confronting the ghosts on the ceiling.
The female ghost's hair scattered down, like a spider's web to entangle these people.
They were terrified beyond belief and had already used various props on themselves, but they were still useless against the ghost, and even the ghost almost killed their people a few times.
"Damn it!!! What the hell is going on with this female ghost ......"
"Why is it targeting only us and not that guy? He must have done something to us!"
"Damn it, it would be too suffocating to die here!"
Yuanzhou Lu can be said to be comfortable watching from the sidelines, and even took food from the side and ate it, as if watching a good show.
He had sensed other players hiding in this house as early as the beginning, but did not say so directly, but secretly moved, just waiting for these people to step into the trap themselves.
As for the female ghost, Yuanzhou Lu once coincidentally brought out from other copies, now does not have any sanity, all rely on Yuanzhou Lu's orders to act. It's a killer app like him.
Although this female ghost is not Yuanzhou Lu's ability, but some kind of prop like existence. But because it's so buggy, the female ghost is also suppressed in this copy, her power can't kill other players, but can only be used to scare people.
But the intermediate copy of the players, which is not experienced all kinds of ghosts chase, and which has not watched their companions were killed by ghosts brutally, they subconsciously carry a deep fear of these ghosts, now see this close to the female ghost, of course, scared out of their souls, where there is still reason to think about the problem, and thought that Yuanzhou Lu in their body to do something, so that the female ghost has been haunting them. The female ghost has been haunting them.
"Think about it. Wuji Gu should be coming back too." Yuanzhou Lu thought, "I'd better call it quits now and get all these people before I do. It won't be good if I scare him by then."
Although Wuji Gu has shown his strength, but because of the preconceived impression, Yuanzhou Lu always feels that the other party is still his little brother, he should cover him.
Not to mention Wuji Gu is so kind and has helped so many people! Surely the inner capacity to bear is very fragile, can not let him see such a cruel picture.
Yuanzhou Lu, who thinks like this, simply forgot how Wuji Gu was indifferent to the ghosts before and ran with the other side.
Just as Yuanzhou Lu tried to retrieve the female ghost, the door to the hall was kicked open and Wuji Gu's figure appeared behind it.
"Wang, you should stop doing it! We should ......" Yuanfei Dai's bitter words had only just left his mouth when he saw this horrific image in front of him and almost fainted from fear.
Wuji Gu patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid." So saying, he walked straight towards the direction of the men and the female ghost, with the blood-stained rope in his hand.
Yuanzhou Lu : "......" and so on when the time comes do not take his female ghosts are captured ah!
Before the situation could develop into an uncontrollable situation, Yuanzhou Lu directly called back the female ghost. At once the hideous ghost in front of those few people slowly transparent body, directly disappeared.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief and had the feeling that they had come back from the dead, before they could say anything, they were tied up by Wuji Gu who felt they could not make the trip for nothing.
The rope used on the ghosts can make the ghosts lose their power, used on people that would be more terrible, the three strong men already feel their bodies instantly hollow and immobile, looking at Wuji Gu in fear.
And at that moment, a burning smell also poured into the hall, there is a crackling sound when burning.
"What did you do?" Yuanzhou Lu looked at Wuji Gu in shock, how just a trip out all to burn this wooden house, "And what's with that man behind?"
That guy should obviously be on the enemy's side, right, how to make it look like Wuji Gu's little brother now.
"It's too late to explain, let's go out first." Wuji Gu said and drove the three towards the door, Yuanzhou Lu also had to carry the fainted player with a broken leg.
The moment several people stepped out of the room, the system's voice also sounded abruptly.
[The owner of the island said that he would release all the prey and reward everyone as long as he could kill the player who violated the rules].
[Main Quest Update: Kill Wuji Gu and leave the island].
Wuji Gu : "?"
