The night passed very peacefully, and there was no one calling them in the middle of the night as the old man said.
Early the next morning, Xu Huo and the others were about to leave after breakfast, but they didn't expect that the road going out was suddenly covered by thick fog, and they couldn't see anything two or three meters away. In this case, when they walked in, they couldn't see anything at all.
Almost like a blind person.
"Why don't you stay for a few days?" the old man suggested, "wait until the fog clears before leaving."
Xu Huo looked worried, "How long will this fog last?"
"If it's good, it'll be two or three days, if it's bad, it'll be more than half a month." The old man was equally worried. "It's hard to hunt when it's foggy, and it's hard to find wild vegetables. Fortunately, I still have some stock at home."
She said and looked at Xu Huo again, "I'm going to ask my neighbor to borrow some food."
You can't live and eat for free, Xu Huo not only paid the money, but also took the initiative to move things.
What surprised him was that some of the residents here grew vegetables. Many of the plants in the woods were edible, and they grew quickly. They had no shortage of vegetables, but eating meat was more troublesome. There were only some small and difficult-to-catch plants in the woods.
animals, but every household bakes some dried meat.
It's not easy to buy, but the old man can borrow a few.
After walking a few houses, I borrowed the rations for the past few days. On the way back, two people suddenly rushed out of the thick fog. When they met, their props came out of their hands and rushed straight towards Xu Huo and the old man!
The old man did not react so quickly and did not realize that the danger was approaching. Xu Huo leaned in front of her and used a C-level defense item to resist the attack.
The protective barrier was easily shattered, and Xu Huo was forced away by the force. When he took a few steps back and hit a tree behind him, the protective barrier was completely broken, but he was not injured.
"Wait! It's a human!" Two daggers that could pursue the enemy stopped in front of him, hovered for a moment, and then moved away.
The two players who rushed out quickly came over, saw the old man's clothes clearly, and looked at Xu Huo again. Then they breathed a sigh of relief and quickly explained the whole story.
They have been walking in the woods for two days, and there seems to be a shadow following them along the way. However, every time they attack, they find that they are nothing more than trees or vines. Their vision is limited, and their senses are also restricted. They are always on guard, and sometimes they are attacked.
They were so frightened that they were exhausted after two days.
Unexpectedly, the fog suddenly became thicker in the middle of the night last night. If you take more than two steps, you can't see anyone clearly. The two of them sleep and go to the toilet back to back. They are worried that if they get separated, they will never be able to walk together again. Even if they shout, they don't dare to
Agree easily.
"A third person appeared in the woods just now." The man who introduced himself as "Master Yin Yin Yin Yang" said: "At first I tried it with props, but there was no reaction. I thought I was dazzled again, but I never thought that this time
Someone actually called us."
"Calling you?" Xu Huo hesitated and looked at the old man, "Is it a 'hidden friend'?"
The old man didn't want to talk more about this topic and urged him to go back quickly.
The two players naturally followed and asked as they walked: "Friend, you are also here to make a dungeon, right? Have you never met me before?"
"I have encountered human figures, but they are similar to your situation. They are just the shadows of vegetation." Xu Huo paused and said: "I am not a dungeon player, I am just here to travel... The friend who is hiding actually has a dungeon. He is
What level?"
"Master Yin Yang" and his companion "Pao Dou" looked at each other in disbelief, but they did not say it directly. Instead, they proposed to stay at the old man's house and said they could provide enough food.
"I can't live in my house anymore." The old man asked them to ask other families. In the end, the two chose the house closest to the old man's house and gave them money and food. Others welcomed them in happily, but they would not refuse either.
However, when they separated, Xu Huo rationally analyzed the shouts they heard, "Maybe they are players in the same dungeon as you. It's normal for players to stay together in such a heavy fog."
It is reasonable to switch to a normal dungeon, but this dungeon has made it clear to each player that there is only one person who can clear the level. Going together? Wouldn't it just become the target of the "hidden friend"? If a group of people stay together, who knows who will become the target?
"Hidden friend"?
"What you said makes sense. Although the figure chased us, he did not attack us." Pao Dou nodded.
"That shouldn't be your real name, right?" The old man had already entered the house, but Xu Huo asked one more question, "What does Bubble Bean look like?"
The player who nicknamed it "Bubble Bean" answered him inexplicably, "A legume plant that is only three inches tall. The fruit is round. When you step on it, it will make a crackling sound and then spit out bubbles."
Xu Huo nodded and went in with his things.
Master Yin Yang exchanged looks with Bubble Bean, then entered the wooden house and closed the door.
There are 39 players in this dungeon, including Xu Huocai. Considering that the people living in this forest are relatively scattered as mentioned by the old man, some players should have found other settlements.
The first half of the description of the two people should be true. Like Xu Huo and the painting girl, they always saw figures yesterday, but the second half is false. Someone is indeed chasing them, but it is not a ghostly figure, but a ghost figure.
There are two players, and the opponent stopped when they were fighting and did not get closer.
The number of people who can clear the dungeon is 1, but the time is limited, which means that even if the level is failed, players can leave this partition. When life and death are not so urgent, it is reasonable for players to form a team.
Are you doing this to prepare for "finding friends"?
I wonder if any of them are playing the role of "hidden friends".
Survival wisdom makes people living here habitually keep silent. In such foggy weather, every household speaks very quietly. Under the silence, any special noise is particularly obvious.
Xu Huo was carrying firewood behind the wooden house when he heard someone calling him.
"Old Xu..." A faint voice came from the depths of the thick fog. He looked up and ignored it. He picked up the firewood and walked back. When he walked around the side of the house, the two players next door opened the window, their faces blurred, but
The voice was clear, "Did you hear that?"
Xu Huo stood still, raised his eyebrows and said, "What did you hear?"
The person who spoke, Paopao Dougan, laughed and said, "It's nothing."
Xu Huo returned to the house as usual.
It was obvious that the two people who came over were with the one hiding in the woods. As soon as he told them that his surname was Xu, the third person came and called his name.
Xu Huo was considering whether to go out and take a look when he suddenly noticed that the people in the forest had turned around and walked away. He frowned slightly, but ultimately did not follow them out.
If that player is playing the role of a "hidden friend", following him out is exactly what he wants. Regardless of whether this process is voluntary or passive, it will always complete the requirements of the copy.
I originally thought that this person was incapable of defeating him and would come back soon, but I didn't expect that after two hours, there was still no movement around the wooden house. Then, the current number of people on the dungeon introduction panel jumped to 38.
