"Although we have been notified that the city has been attacked by murderers, is this really something that a few murderers can do?"
The gray fog has become thicker and thicker, reaching the point where it can't be seen from a few meters away.
"Golden Moon" Hua Xueyi walked in the foggy streets, but still maintained a normal mind.
Smell, color and even spiritual intuition cannot capture her now. Walking in this dangerous street, she is a "transparent person" who does not exist.
"This city once had a population of hundreds of thousands, where are the people?"
Unlike Earth, where there are already many five- and six-story buildings, local cities are still in the expansion stage. Most of them are small buildings of two or three stories, and the buildings are often sparse.
But even so, after walking in the mist for more than ten minutes, Hua Xueyi still didn't detect a "creature".
"It turns out to be here."
As a fourth-level animal trainer, his sense of life did not find life, but his sense of smell found the source of the rancid smell.
When the distance is close enough, the fog barrier that brings hypocrisy and illusion finally fails, and what appears in front of Hua Xueyi is a "human ball".
It was a combination of at least a dozen humanoid creatures. The lower body was made up of countless stumps. The arms and legs were randomly connected. The pieced together head seemed to be constantly struggling and wailing, but there was no sound from the completely rotten vocal cords, just pure
The decorations, the human balls pieced together by the corpse monsters roll around randomly, like a child playing marbles at will.
"What the hell is this."
Even Hua Xueyi, who is already considered a senior mercenary, has never seen such an unreasonable thing.
She watched the personal ball roll past her. After hesitating for a moment, she did not return.
She vaguely sensed that this incident might not be something ordinary mercenaries could handle. Regardless of whether they wanted to continue carrying out support missions, intelligence came first.
As a result, she became more and more transparent and her breath became thinner
There is a reason for daring to enter the mist alone. Now she has successfully integrated "Metal Slime" into her epidermal cells, and has a series of powerful powers including "aura masking", "optical invisibility", and "sound wave absorption".
characteristic.
The combination of "Metalized Cuticle Cells", "Control Metal", "Metal Slime" mimicry and other abilities greatly expands her diverse abilities.
Coupled with the part-time "Soldier", "Sentinel" and "Dancer" professional abilities, she may not be the most outstanding assassin master now, but she is definitely the most capable stealth and reconnaissance master.
But the further she walked, the more frightened she became.
The human ball just now was not an isolated case. Various corpse monsters collided one after another, including long "centipedes", columnar "Thousand-Handed Giants", and several floating corpses grouped together, but the most numerous ones were...
They are still human balls piled together simply and crudely.
If this is what someone did, maybe he was serious about creating it at first, but now, it's just a simple and rough patchwork connection.
And based on her life system ability, she could clearly sense that these were all corpses and dead people.
But what surprised her was not that these corpses were able to move. Doctors and animal trainers had a lot of similar abilities, but that these corpses were not "controlled".
"They are obviously dead but they have vague self-awareness?"
Hua Xueyi tried it, and the thrown stone attracted several balls to follow her.
They also collided with each other, then slapped randomly and finally came together, became bigger again, and then continued to wander aimlessly.
This scene made the truly knowledgeable sixth-level mercenary feel numb.
"How did you do it?"
Today's Hua Xueyi is no longer the rookie she was in the past. Before she chose to stay in this world, she had completed her comprehensive "knowledge reserve" and spent a long time on the battlefield to gradually digest it.
Sixth-level fighter, fifth-level dancer, and fourth-level animal tamer are her main paths, and several third-level combat professions together form her rather complex career system.
In fact, she actually became a sixth-level fighter two years ago. She was already at the fourth level at the beginning. After making up for her shortcomings in knowledge and skills, it is normal for her to accumulate actual combat experience and accumulate to the peak of the law after ten years of hard work.
In addition to Miss Rou, the "genius", if the original batch of remaining actual combat backbones work hard, their "double talents", "knowledge will make the road ahead smooth", and "attribute shortcomings and drug addiction" will rise to five or six.
In fact, it can be expected.
But the next step to break through the rules level is really not something that can be achieved in a short amount of time.
Hua Xueyi's biggest achievement was not even her combat job, but her "beast taming". After the "artisan" job got stuck, she, like most professionals, turned her attention to other part-time jobs.
But it was only after she worked hard in the paths of beast tamer and craftsman that she discovered that her talent in this area was actually higher than that of her main job because of her "flesh metalization".
Considering that the upper limit of these two professions is actually higher than that of ordinary combat professions, and there is also "famous teacher guidance (a certain cat left her enough guidance)", she naturally digs deep into her potential.
"Go and notify me if you find 'life'."
The woman's long golden hair lengthened again, thickened and then fell to the ground.
As if a scene from a fairy tale turned into reality, the long hair fell to the ground and turned into small golden snakes. They hissed, and then turned into shadows, scattered to carry out their tasks.
This is what she can't understand. "Clones" and "living corpses", whether they are bionic bodies or "living dolls", are not actually real living creatures.
This kind of thing is like a rebooted machine, which requires "software" to control it. That is often the "purpose" for which they are created.
They seem to move freely, but in fact they are still just "string puppets". They are often "living machines" driven by goals. At least within the scope of Hua Xueyi's understanding, this is basically the limit of the "life system"
.
"Is it a complete artificial soul? No, I don't sense a soul."
"Is that a complete set of virtual action instructions? It's unrealistic. It's such a clumsy assembly. They didn't even have physical mobility and stability to create their existence. They also had to do a whole set of extra biological simulation functions that were a waste of skills."
However, these zombie balls in front of us have complete "biological instincts" and will actively chase, attack, fight, eat, and roar. If this is all done proactively, it is like adding dialogue and painting to a washing machine.
, Self-moving function may be possible, but it is completely meaningless, and the cost and consumption are too high.
Hiding on the ceiling of a house, while "observing" the field of vision provided by the snakes, she noticed that the "zombie" residents below were still imitating the behavior patterns of their previous lives in a dull and slow way.
The most obvious thing is that when she got into a house, she saw two corpses performing "husband and wife affairs". However, with the failure of progress (the flesh was rotten), the progress was not smooth and she could not obtain the "right"
They "give back" quickly got into a fight.
But tired of beating, these two pieces of rotten meat started again
"What the hell"
The scene in front of her was completely incomprehensible to her. Perhaps, the more "life system" professional, the more unable to understand this unconventional thing.
What was even more incomprehensible to him was that the group of snakes that had been able to be controlled at will within a few kilometers in the past had only gone more than a hundred meters this time before losing contact one by one.
"Get out."
Her spiritual intuition sensed an increasingly obvious threat approaching, and considering that if she didn't respond for a long time, others would be involved, she chose to leave.
But when she really turned around, the endless mist obscured everything.
The "metal cell footprints" left by her previous walk, the signposts used to guide the way, also disappeared without a trace.
Either it was blocked by the mist, Hua Xueyi could feel it clearly, or it was completely gone, and the "resonance" between cells simply disappeared.
"This land is devouring life"
Her spiritual intuition, which was close to the rule level, gave her the worst answer, and at this moment, she seemed to have no way out.
"Heh, I just want to see what's going on inside."
When they meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. The mercenaries who have experienced hundreds of battles are aware of the crisis, but they do not fall into fear or panic.
The mature warrior just silently walked deeper into the fog.
