Chapter 015: Red Ghost (14)
There were lightning and thunder outside the company building, and heavy rain was pouring down.
Xie Xinglan pulled out the dagger that he had inserted into the ground to support himself.
The female boss had had enough fun and was about to kill the prey to enjoy it slowly, but the prey suddenly curled its lips into a smile, leaped forward, and rushed forward.
There was still a hint of humanity in the female boss's eyes, and a look of surprise flashed across her. She had obviously underestimated the vitality and ambition of her prey.
【Ahhhh, little brother is fine and can still fight! 】
[Fuck, so handsome! ]
"You are overestimating your abilities!" the female boss was furious.
The dagger was so close at hand that the female boss raised her spider legs to block it. The two weapons collided, making a crisp and harsh metal collision sound.
Xie Xinglan felt pain in his palm, but he did not retreat. The female boss had terrifying jumping ability and could stick to any wall and pounce on him. He had no chance of winning in a long-range battle, but her limbs were huge, it took time for her to react, and her flexibility was very poor, which was precisely his advantage.
Xie Xinglan analyzed this in a very short time, sneered, and rushed forward with a fighting spirit in his eyes.
[Fuck, this is crazy, close combat! ]
【Fuck, ahhhhhhhh, isn’t he going to run away? The female boss is twice as big as him. 】
【Little brother, run! 】
The female boss misjudged the actions of her prey again. She stood there in a daze for several seconds, then attacked furiously, determined to crush the prey into powder.
She was extremely powerful and could destroy everything in her power, but she would pause for one or two seconds after each attack. Xie Xinglan's six senses all reached their peak. With her cleverness and agility, she was able to accurately avoid all her attacks and even seize the female boss's flaws to fight back.
The female boss raised all her attacks high up, but she dropped them incorrectly. The unbalanced force made her stagger. It was another failed attack, and her left forelimb dug deeply into the ground, causing a shower of broken tiles, soil and rocks to splash.
Xie Xinglan seized the opportunity, retreated sideways behind the female boss, and with a leap, jumped onto the female boss's left forelimb. The sudden heavy pressure caused the female boss's left forelimb to sink deeper and became difficult to pull out.
The female boss screamed in rage, obviously she didn't expect to be schemed against by an individual like this.
With a brief advantage, Xie Xinglan tried to attack, but the female boss's body was tough and invulnerable.
The female boss finally pulled out her left forelimb, and there was another fierce sound of dagger hitting spider legs, and the audience outside the venue felt deafened.
Xie Xinglan resisted calmly, glanced at the female boss's eyes, and suddenly had an idea.
Xie Xinglan curled his lips into a smile, and when the female boss made another mistake, he grabbed her cumbersome hair tightly.
The female boss's lower body was unstable due to her hair being pulled, and Xie Xinglan knocked her down with a sweeping kick. The sharp dagger fell rapidly and pierced into her eyes. Blood immediately splashed out, staining her slender white hands red.
【Oh shit! Aaaaaaaaah.】
【The female boss is blind, ahhhhhhh. 】
The severe pain came, and the female boss's whole body twitched, spasming like an earthworm. Amidst a heart-wrenching howl, Xie Xinglan caught a glimpse of... colorful stripes appearing on the female boss's body.
At the same time, the female boss's belly expanded rapidly like a balloon, and the inner wall kept vibrating, as if something had sensed the fatal danger and wanted to break out of the body and escape.
[Fuck, ahhhh, there really is a poisonous insect in her stomach!!!]
【Fuck. Aaaaaaaaaah.】
[Fuck! Is this guy so terrifying after being forced to this point? Ahhhhhhhhhh. ]
In the blink of an eye, dense stretch marks appeared on the female boss's soft belly. Her belly was stretched to a thin layer, like an intestine filled with meat, and you could clearly see the... colorful poisonous insects inside.
A huge, colorful poisonous insect that was banging its belly like crazy, trying to get out.
Xie Xinglan's heart suddenly became as clear as a mirror.
"Want to live?" Xie Xinglan sneered.
He has completely changed his identity, from a miserable prey being hunted by the female boss to a hunter who is in control of everything and casually raises the killing blade at the weak ants.
With a "puff", the blood-stained dagger fell again mercilessly, piercing through the female boss's membrane-like belly and going straight into the body of the insect.
The huge poisonous insect that was still flapping its wings the second before was nailed to death in the filthy womb forever. Before its death, it was still absorbing nutrients from the female boss, hoping for a long-planned new life.
The audience outside the horror movie was silent, and after a few seconds, they fell into an unprecedented sensation.
The blue female ghost from before stood up angrily, hugged her husband and screamed excitedly: "Ahhhhh he succeeded!!!"
"Wow, this new guy is so awesome! He killed such a strong spider with pure force!!"
“Fuck you, I’m paying attention!! Oh fuck, ahhhhhhh!”
"Compared to him, those guys I used to be fans of are just shit!!"
"He definitely has a bright future. He can be said to be the best newcomer in history, right? Even Mr. Shen wasn't that dazzling during his rookie period!"
In the picture, the man has handsome features, but his eyes are deep and cold. The blood of the female boss drips slowly along his cold white fingertips. Besides the bloodiness, there is an indescribable weird beauty.
It seemed as if he originally belonged to conquest and killing, blood and sharp blades, but he had temporarily retracted his claws and turned into a sleeping beast, appearing gentle and hypocritical to others.
Two fifteen or sixteen-year-old black female ghosts huddled together : "Wow, wow, wow, I'm going to save money. From now on, I'm going to watch every movie he makes!"
"I'm waiting for him to become a god! Then I'll be one of his earliest fans!"
…
Xie Xinglan let go of the dagger and stood up, ignoring the bloody scene on the ground, and went to the sink to wash his hands.
Xiaochi is a germaphobe, so over time , washing hands after doing anything has become a subconscious habit.
Xie Xinglan thought of something and chuckled, thinking, "Xiao Chi, do you know what his partner should do after the male lead kills the boss in European and American movies?"
Xie Xinglan deliberately avoided the word "heroine" to show his respect for his Xiaochi.
Xie Chi knew the answer very well: "..."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xie Xinglan knew that he was embarrassed, so he tried to tighten the corners of his mouth and thought to himself, "Ready Player One, IT... How did they do it? Hmm?"
Xie Xinglan has always been a man of few words, but he never gets tired of Xie Chi teasing him.
Xie Chi, who was always shameless, was silent for several seconds before he said in a low voice: "...I'll owe it to you first."
In European and American movies, after the male protagonist kills the boss, the couple will usually... kiss each other.
Xie Xinglan didn't insist and chuckled, "Well, I'll owe it to you first."
What I mean is, I'll remember it all.
Xie Chi was silent for several seconds.
Xie Xinglan had already washed his hands and thought to himself, "Xiao Chi, it's your turn to solve the branch line, and then we can leave."
Xie Xinglan fell into a deep sleep most of the time and was not fully aware of the plot. Xie Chi would tell him the relevant plot when he was needed.
Xie Chi: "Okay."
After Xie Chi regained control of his body, he walked back to the female boss's body.
[Why does his face seem a little red? Am I seeing things? ]
[Isn't that stupid? He is seriously ill and has a low-grade fever.]
[Oh yeah! I forgot about that. My memory is so bad.]
[What is the situation with the branch line? 】
Xie Chi squatted down, looked at the poisonous insect in front of him, which was as big as a bream, thought for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled.
On the day of signing the contract, the poisonous insect he encountered was only as big as a strawberry, but the one in front of him was ten times bigger than that one.
The previous one was completely black, ugly and inconspicuous, but the one in front of him was covered with colorful stripes and was dazzling.
The side quest requirement is to explore the secret of the decline of the baby-headed Gu.
When Xie Chi was traveling all over the country, he visited a witch.
The Gu woman once said unintentionally that if the stomach of a real Gu-raising person is opened after death, it will be full of Gu worms. If there are none, then the person is fake.
The poisonous insects and the people who raise them are inherently mutually reinforcing and mutually exclusive.
People who raise Gu insects can use the Gu insects to satisfy their endless desires, and the Gu insects can naturally... turn against their masters and take over their masters' nests.
This is the case with ordinary poisonous insects, not to mention the baby-head poisonous insect that devours baby heads. This poisonous insect not only has a human head, but also possesses human intelligence.
It was born from the resentment of the ghost baby, so it is naturally extremely evil. It will not willingly be driven by its master, and has become a mechanical luck converter year after year.
The decline of the baby-headed Gu is because it is... shedding its shell.
Xie Chi chuckled and slowly stood up.
This is the answer.
The black poisonous insect he saw at first was just a highly camouflaged shell shed by the baby-headed poisonous insect to confuse its owner who loved it deeply.
The real baby-headed Gu quietly drilled into her owner's womb, built a nest in that warm place, and patiently waited for new life ten months later.
Once this process is successful, the baby-headed Gu will completely break free from its master's control, kill the master, complete a qualitative change, and become a terrifying existence with unpredictable strength.
People want to become more beautiful and richer, Gu want to become bigger and stronger, and it is like this with all things.
But the baby-head Gu was killed by his brother at the last moment.
Xie Chi smiled.
This is the truth behind the decline of the baby-headed Gu.
…
When Xie Chi was sorting out the side quests, in addition to the horror movie, the scenes on the screen changed rapidly along with his thoughts, the scene of the first meeting with the female boss, the scene of the poisonous insect crawling on the hand, the scene of the side quest appearing, the scene of the female boss killing her husband, the scene of the female boss's stomach bulging during the decisive battle, the scene of the poisonous insect struggling in her stomach...
All the clues are clearly presented to the audience, and the audience suddenly understands.
[Fuck, it’s really scary when you think about it! ]
[The female boss deserves it! ]
[Female ghost: Where is my promised revenge? ]
【Female ghost: Buddy, you stole my job. 】
…
The moment he figured everything out, Xie Chi's phone rang.
[Congratulations, you have successfully completed the branch quest of Baby Head Gu and received a reward of 50 points. ]
The next second, the audience outside the horror movie suddenly exclaimed.
[Props! Props exploded! ]
[What kind of prop is this? ? Why haven’t I seen it before? ]
[Fuck! Buff! The hardest to get and the most widely applicable buff! A permanent positive buff! Fuck!]
In the picture, a halo the color of gold ingots floated out from the belly of the female boss's body.
