The streets were still filled with noisy screams and roars. From time to time, a few panicked passers-by stumbled past. Lin Ze turned a blind eye and just stared at the sky thoughtfully. As time passed, the sky became darker. It gradually became darker.
He had a hunch that once the sky darkened completely, some unforeseen changes might occur.
But monsters still have to be killed.
Withdrawing his gaze, he randomly chose a direction with the greatest movement and walked slowly.
...
Click!
A clear and piercing scream suddenly sounded, and the window of the clothing store exploded. Countless glass fragments were scattered, and a heavy and huge wooden cabinet flew out like a cannonball, hitting the guardrail across the street hard.
He Xingzhou staggered out of the broken window and fell to the ground in a panic, but he didn't care to breathe and quickly struggled to get up and ran away into the distance.
Not far after running out, another roar came from behind. The door and wall of the clothing store facing the street exploded, and a huge figure broke through the smoke and dust and rushed out. After a brief pause, after seeing clearly the direction in which He Xingzhou was escaping, he immediately Chase after him quickly.
It was a huge feline monster. It looked like a tiger or a cat, but it was over three meters tall. Its whole body was as bright as blood. Its smooth muscle lines undulated as it moved quickly. It looked very strong and agile. What was even more surprising was that, It was wrapped with wisps of light red mist.
These aerosols are obviously very corrosive, and the ground they come into contact with along the way is corroded with thick black marks.
Looking down from the sky, this black mark is spreading rapidly towards He Xingzhou.
"Damn it! Why are you so unlucky! As soon as you come in, you encounter an elite-level monster!"
He Xingzhou was on the verge of crying, regretting that he should not have taken a chance to participate in the mandatory dungeon. What a blessing. He encountered such a terrifying intermediate monster. With his elite-intermediate strength, it was almost impossible to escape.
"And isn't the boss of this dungeon from the arrogance type? How could a monster from the jealous type appear?" He couldn't help but yell.
What answered him was the roar of the monster chasing after him. The feline monster was now within ten meters. The violent light in the beast's eyes flashed away, and it suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a stream of light red energy.
Hearing the sound of breaking through the air behind him, a chill suddenly shot up on He Xingzhou's back. Without thinking, he threw himself forward. At the critical moment, he was able to avoid the oncoming light red Qi Jin, and then heard a bang. There was a muffled sound, and the force had already hit the lamppost not far away.
The street lamp pole was made of fiberglass with strong corrosion resistance. Even so, a large piece of it was instantly melted away by corrosion. The pole broke from the middle, and the upper part collapsed and fell to the ground.
Looking up and seeing this scene, He Xingzhou's scalp suddenly felt numb. When he looked back, he saw that the feline monster had swooped close to him, opened its bloody mouth, and bit him fiercely with its sharp fangs exposed.
The smelly smell rushed towards him, and He Xingzhou was frightened out of his wits. He screamed strangely and used his trump card without hesitation.
The feline monster took one bite, and the teeth collided with each other, making a crunching sound. His mouth was empty, and he suddenly felt stunned. He looked intently and found that the prey in front of him had disappeared at some point, leaving only a palm-sized piece in place. Clown doll with tongue making faces.
He Xingzhou, on the other hand, appeared a hundred meters away and rushed into a shop in a panic.
The feline monster that was being teased let out an angry roar and ran over, quickly chasing it to the shop, breaking through the door without stopping and rushing inside.
He Xingzhou knew that there was no way he could outrun the feline monster on the road, so he made up his mind to rush between various shops in an attempt to slow down the feline monster. Unexpectedly, the latter ran into a wall and broke a door. The pursuit speed
Although it was much slower than before, it was still clinging to him.
After running wildly for seven or eight minutes, He Xingzhou's physical exertion was so intense that he was panting like a windshield, and a trace of despair could not help but appear in his expression.
"It seems like we really have to confess here today. Alas, if I had known this, I should have mustered up the courage to confess to Jiajia..."
He Xingzhou was thinking regretfully as he opened the back door of the shop and rushed out. He suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of his eye. He was startled and his body instinctively dodge. As a result, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Oops!"
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he heard a high-pitched roar coming from the shop just a short distance behind him.
He Xingzhou quickly turned over and found that the figure he almost bumped into was a young man with a slender figure and a handsome face, looking at him with raised eyebrows.
Even in a critical situation, the handsome face of the other party still made He Xingzhou feel a surge of jealousy in his heart. Then he suddenly realized, damn, he was almost affected by the emotions of that monster.
After calming down, he stood up and shouted urgently: "Run quickly, there is an intermediate monster behind you."
However, it was too late. As soon as He Xingzhou finished speaking, the back door of the shop burst open. The feline monster flew into the sky with sawdust and gravel, and quickly landed on the street. His eyes passed over the two people present. After a slight pause, he suddenly stopped.
Paying no attention to He Xingzhou, he suddenly turned around and stared at the young man, his body slightly arched, and he roared repeatedly, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
He Xingzhou was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.
He was not stupid. Seeing the feline monster behave like this, he still didn't understand that the strength of this young man he met by chance was definitely not weak, which was why the feline monster was so afraid.
Thinking of this, hope suddenly surged in his heart.
But at this time, the feline monster could no longer hold back and attacked first, its mouth slightly opened halfway. He Xingzhou chased and chased it for a long time, knowing that this was the prelude of the monster spitting out corrosive energy, and his heart suddenly trembled.
If you are in a hurry, you will be reminded when you open your mouth.
"careful......"
However, mid-sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if a golden-red lightning strip suddenly tore through the void. After a closer look, he discovered that it was a blade of light. The moment it was cut out, it turned into light and shadow all over the sky, covering it like a gust of wind and rain.
All over the body of the feline monster, light and shadow disappeared as quickly as they came, disappearing without a trace in an instant. Then with a pop, the feline monster fell to the ground, motionless, with scorch marks all over its body, and the center of its eyebrows turned into a piece of charcoal.
He couldn't die any more.
"a little......"
After He Xingzhou finished the second half of his sentence, he was already stunned on the spot, looking at the young man in a daze, his mouth wide open and speechless.
Although I had expected that this person was very powerful, I didn't expect that a monster at the peak of elite level would be killed in his hands without even being able to survive a face-to-face encounter. With this kind of strength... he is undoubtedly a hero-level player!
He Xingzhou couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and when he saw the young man looking at him, he quickly squeezed out a grateful smile, but his heart tightened.
In the mandatory dungeon, monsters are the unanimous enemy of players, but at the same time there is also a competitive relationship between players. It is difficult to say whether some crazy players will take action against others, especially when the strength of the two sides is very different.
.
Although he was worried and guarded in his heart, He Xingzhou had to put on a grateful look on his face and thanked the young man repeatedly.
"Are you a solo player?"
That young man was Lin Ze. He clearly saw the wariness in He Xingzhou's eyes and asked casually without revealing it.
"That's right." He Xingzhou hesitated for a moment, then answered frankly.
Lin Ze glanced at him. Elite solo players dared to participate in mandatory dungeons. They had to be very brave, but they usually died quickly.
He Xingzhou seemed to understand Lin Ze's eyes, with a look of disdain on his face. Then he saw Lin Ze turning around and about to leave, and hurriedly said: "Wait a minute!"
Lin Ze paused and looked back at him: "Is there anything else?"
He Xingzhou smiled flatteringly at him, rubbed his hands and said, "Brother, I, I have an unkind request. Can I go with you next?"
He was really scared. The forced dungeon was even more dangerous than he imagined. As soon as he entered, he encountered a monster at the peak of elite level and almost died. He might encounter even more terrifying monsters next, so he should just follow him.
It is safer to play with this powerful Gao.
Hearing this, Lin Ze did not answer, but just glanced at him lightly, the meaning was obvious.
"I promise, I will never hinder you!" He Xingzhou swore, patting his chest, and then hurriedly took out something from his pocket and showed it to Lin Ze, "Of course, brother, I won't let your help go in vain. This is the reward.
!”
Lin Ze turned his attention to the thing in He Xingzhou's hand, which was a palm-sized clown doll.
【Stand-in clown】
[Type: Game props]
[After use, you can withstand an attack without being injured, and teleport to any designated location within a hundred meters radius]
Lin Ze's eyes lit up slightly as he glanced over the information that appeared in front of him.
nice one!
Use this game prop at a critical moment and it can save your life!
Lin Ze hesitated for a moment. Frankly speaking, he didn't want to bring such a burden, but the game props He Xingzhou presented were very tempting and quite attractive to him.
He can't kill people to seize treasures, not to mention that unless the players voluntarily take out the game props, they can't be exploded even if they kill the opponent.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Ze said bluntly: "Even if you follow me, I can't guarantee that I will be able to protect you. I will only protect you if my own safety is not endangered."
"It doesn't matter!"
Lin Ze's honesty made He Xingzhou secretly relieved. Unexpectedly, he would regret it after receiving the reward.
In the absence of a notarized contract, the execution of transactions between players can only rely on the credit of both parties.
"What do you call me, big brother?" He Xingzhou asked quickly after handing the clown clown to Lin Ze.
"crow."
"Brother Crow!" He Xingzhou called out, then laughed, "Brother, just call me Xiao He."
He Xingzhou looked obviously much older than Lin Ze, but he treated him like a big brother, which made Lin Ze feel weird. However, seeing that He Xingzhou's expression was normal and not at all unnatural, he let him go.
