Chapter 266 The Evil Spirit in the Attic
The one who gives me medicine is a professional PVE party.
What is a professional PVE player? He may not know how tragic the main storyline of the game is, what grudges and entanglements there are between which NPCs in the setting, how bloody which epic quest is, etc., but he must remember the quick clearance method of the dungeon, the attack pattern of the monsters and the efficiency of the monster spawning map.
Even if it was a monster he had only fought once or a quest he had only completed once, he would make sure to write down how to fight the monster and the key points of the quest strategy.
The first time players encountered a sealed object, they also unlocked the "Red Wall Farm" mission, where they saw the orange cat boss being killed instantly after casting an identification spell. They remembered that there would be "killing with the door open" and "killing with direct vision" in missions related to sealed objects...
Then he offered sacrifice to Qin Guan.
As for Qin Guan, who had sacrificed him, it was not until his friends came over that they figured out what was going on...
Without waiting for the opportunity to ask the person who took the medicine for the cause of death, Qin Guan lowered his eyebrows and said, "I'll go and ask what the person who took the medicine saw," and then disappeared.
The three veterans of the closed beta test were so close that they were almost wearing the same pants. I was so frustrated that I hung up the line and gave me medicine, but I didn't get too angry after jumping over my feet . I received Qin Guan's call and told him what he saw.
"Chiyao said he saw a woman sitting behind the counter with her back facing outwards." Qin Guan said to his friends while putting on his equipment. "When Chiyao saw her, she looked like she had eyes on the back of her head. She glanced at Chiyao, and then Chiyao died."
"Eyes on the back of the head..." Miaobishenghua felt a little disgusted, "This is a bit too disgusting."
"Even the back of the head can kill people instantly. It seems that the setting is that you will die if you see the BOSS in the grocery store. There is no way to cheat by looking at the reflection in the mirror." Entropy said.
Miaobishenghua nodded: "You can't find a BOSS with your eyes closed and then put it in a box like a prop, so just go around it."
En Bu Zeng turned his head to look at everyone, pointed at the second-floor window and shouted, "Come on, some walkers, climb down the wall!"
If a normal person knew that there was a monster in a two-story building that could kill people on sight, it would be difficult for him to have the courage to continue trying to find a way to get into the building. Who knows if the monster on the first floor would hear the noise and go up to the second floor?
But for players... when playing a dungeon, bypassing the BOSS you don’t want to fight and continuing to go deeper into the dungeon to fight the next one is just a routine operation.
Accidentally attracted the BOSS? Pull it away and continue, no big deal!
At worst, we can just add a few ADDs, as long as we don't get wiped out...
Jia Luo, who was playing the Walker, jumped out actively, and while climbing the outer wall, he did not forget to shout to his friends: "Record my heroic figure climbing the wall!"
Yang Ying and Tang Jia, who were playing as soldiers, laughed and scolded: "Can we take a close-up of your big butt?"
This small building is less than three meters high. The total height of the two floors plus the attic is just over seven meters. The outer wall is still fixed with wooden boards left over from the renovation. It is not difficult for players with light bodies to climb up, and several travelers went up in a short while.
These Walker players knew they were fragile, so none of them dared to go back inside. Instead, they all climbed on the windowsill and peeked inside...
" There's nothing on the second floor!"
"Climb up to the attic and have a look." Miaobishenghua shouted upwards.
Jialuo wanted to show off, so he hooked one end of the longbow on the attic window frame and pulled it hard. The whole person was lifted up more than two meters in a very elegant and nimble manner... and then continued to climb on the attic window sill in a wretched manner.
"Yes, yes, there's a monster! A ghost monster!" After taking a look in the small attic window, Jialuo shouted excitedly, "It's a young boy who looks like a young version of Junxiong. He's squatting behind the box and looking at me!"
"Boy? Could it be Kent Bennett?" Entropy's body trembled.
Without even thinking, Jia Luo shouted into the attic: "Are you Kent Bennett?"
Unfortunately... or fortunately, the players' "dead language" is not intelligible to the language of the indigenous ghosts.
"No response." Jialuo shouted down again.
"Identification technique!" He would lose his temper even if the entropy didn't increase.
Jialuo, the girl who was overwhelmed by the desire to show off, finally realized that she had made a stupid mistake, and silently used her skills at the young ghost in the attic who was staring at her.
"Nameless Evil Spirit"
"LV6"
"It has a terrifying aura. It might not be wise to be hostile to it."
After seeing the identification information of this yellow-named monster, Jia Luo was stunned: "Oh my god! A level 6 big BOSS!"
The players waiting downstairs were also shocked when they heard this level.
Apart from NPCs like Lao Yang and Xiao Bai Lian, whose levels cannot be identified, the most common level 6 monsters players see are the wandering bosses that occasionally refresh in the depths of the Tarantan Wasteland and the Poison Mist Swamp.
When players' levels are still hovering around level 2 (potential value 100), they can barely defeat level 4 BOSS, and have to run away when encountering level 5 monsters.
The players’ level has been raised to level three (potential value 200). They can defeat the level five BOSS with a big sacrifice, but they still have to run away when encountering a level six BOSS.
The level system set up by Yang Qiu is simply and crudely divided according to mental power, and the combat effectiveness of professional-level strongmen is actually very difficult to measure with the mental power standard. For example, Hal, whose mental power is over 800 (displayed as level five under the identification technique), is no match for Charlie Rex, whose mental power is only over 600 (displayed as level four under the identification technique).
But... anyone with a mental strength of over 1600 (level 6 under the identification technique), no matter what type of profession, no matter whether they are living or non-living, belongs to the category of extraordinary beings that transcend the limits of mortals, and can mow down enemies on the battlefield with unparalleled speed - such as the diocesan bishops of various churches.
For example, Brother Lowell, whose spiritual power exceeds 5000 (if the player can identify it, it will be displayed as level 7), even if he is not good at fighting, no one who knows his identity will rashly try to kill him... It is no exaggeration to say that the number of people in the entire continent who can kill Brother Lowell by physical means is no more than double ten.
Players don’t know the power system of this world, but after discovering the abnormal requirement that the potential value required for each upgrade must be doubled after reaching level three, they have gradually figured out the hidden setting that "the higher the level, the more difficult it is to kill a higher level enemy."
Level 1 players can work as a team to surround and kill level 3 monsters, but level 3 players can never defeat level 6 monsters!
"——Wait! This monster didn't attack Jialuo!" Miaobishenghua was frightened and quickly came to his senses, "Jialuo, is this monster Huang Ming?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Jialuo nodded hurriedly.
"Don't provoke it!" Miaobishenghua said resolutely, "You all come down, I'll go up to the attic alone and see if I can find a way to interact with this BOSS."
The walker players hanging on the outer wall would never consider using their small bodies to take damage from the BOSS. No one said anything and they all fell to the ground quickly.
Miaobishenghua took off the robe that was in the way, and climbed the wall wearing only the novice suit that concealed his ugliness. Before he climbed up, he did not forget to tell Enbuteng: "If I die, you go offline and call me first, and then arrange for someone to try. Don't go up by yourself, and leave someone here."
"No problem." En Bu Zeng made an OK gesture.
The wonderful pen climbed up a bit, then turned back and said: "Take a good picture of me dying bravely!"
Even such a rational person was amused by this sister who was several years older than her, and pretended to take off her equipment: "Forget it, Huahua, you come down, let me go up instead."
Miaobishenghua refused to exchange with her and went up to the attic laughingly... Her posture of climbing the wall was not as graceful as that of the Walker player, but it was really not difficult for the undead to COS Spider-Man with a body that was so light that it weighed less than 40% of a normal person.
Miaobishenghua, who was hanging on the attic windowsill in the same sneaky way as Jialuo before, first cautiously used the identification technique.
After confirming from the identified information that this monster was indeed impossible to defeat, Miaobishenghua continued to climb on the windowsill, staring at the gloomy evil spirit BOSS in the attic.
Jialuo's description was not wrong, this yellow-named evil spirit hiding in the attic did look a bit like a young version of Junxiong, but Miaobishenghua, who had a background in art, keenly discovered that this evil spirit did not look like this naturally - its facial features now looked like they were the result of swelling.
After carefully identifying the appearance of this nameless evil spirit for a while, she created a model in her mind of the monster's appearance after removing the swelling and pale complexion, and soon overlapped it with a face she had seen not long ago...
The first missing person in the appendix of the mission text (red cover book) is Kent Bennett!
No, that's not right.
Miaobishenghua shook his head secretly. The Kent Bennett in the mission text (red cover book) did partially overlap with the brain model of this nameless evil spirit after the swelling was removed, but the features were quite different - Kent Bennett's eyes were wider, his brow ridges were higher, and his philtrum was longer.
People who have a background in art and are good at makeup are very sensitive to the distribution of facial features, especially the distance between the eyes, the brow bone, and the philtrum, which are key areas that affect the overall beauty of the face.
It's not Kent Bennett... then it's a relative?
As Miaobi Shenghua thought about this, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and he looked at the spooky evil spirit in the attic more carefully.
The evil spirit in the attic seemed to feel offended after being repeatedly peeped at by the undead lying on the window. It slowly stood up, staring at the wonderful writing dangerously with its pupils without whites, and exuded a terrifying aura that could scare off the highly inspired players like the orange cat boss.
The brilliant writer, who was only slightly braver than the orange cat boss, had no time to be afraid and focused more on observing the evil spirit.
"Kent Bennett is nearly as tall as an adult. This evil spirit can stand upright in the attic. It is at most 1.6 meters tall!"
The evil spirit slowly walked towards the window. The scrutinizing gaze from the undead's dark eyes made it feel uncomfortable instinctively.
Miaobishenghua felt his scalp tingling and he let out a short "ow" before climbing down in panic.
When passing by the second-floor window, Miaobishenghua took the opportunity to look inside through the window.
There is a living room and two rooms on the second floor. From the living room facing the street, you can see the doors of the two rooms. The door of one of the rooms is not closed, and you can vaguely see a single bed inside.
"Huahua! Above my head!" The friends standing downstairs suddenly shouted heartbreakingly.
Miaobishenghua raised his head suddenly, and was immediately startled...
The upper body of the evil spirit stretched out from the narrow attic window, its pale and swollen face facing downward, its terrifying dark eyes staring at her from above.
Meeting the sight of the brilliant pen, more of the evil spirit's torso stuck out of the window...
“Aaaaaaah——!”
In fact, he is not very good at writing horror stories, so he fell to the ground howling and ran away.
The evil spirit seemed to be irritated by Miaobishenghua's reaction. It squeezed its entire body out of the attic window, head down, with its limbs grabbing the wall, and landed quickly on the ground like a gecko. It retreated to the other side of the street without paying any attention to the players and silently chased after Miaobishenghua.
“What the hell?!”
The players were all stunned by this scene.
At the critical moment, Miaobishenghua, who was scared and ran away, did not forget what he should do. He sent a message in the team channel: "Don't save me, I will pull the monster away, you guys hurry up to the attic to look for clues!"
"This evil spirit is very likely a close relative of Kent Bennett, maybe even a brother!"
