Returning from the abyss

Chapter 41 The monster that devoured the sky
For the vast majority of tourists who are still at the first level, the word "run" has formed a subconscious instinct, even for newcomers like Lu Ning.

All the people present immediately fled in the direction that is pleasing to the eye, even regardless of the life or death of the two people in the cave, within ten seconds, the entrance of the cave was empty.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Ning got into the jungle, took out her mobile phone and hastily edited the message and sent it to Cheng Wuling, and started running down the hillside.Unexpectedly, just after running a few hundred meters, the top of his head suddenly went dark.

A creepy sense of terror penetrated into people's hearts. Lu Ning squatted behind the tree and raised her head. At this moment, a stabbing pain came from her eyes.

She immediately noticed a problem.

The advantage of this identity is that you can see some things that ordinary people can't see, but it also has a side effect, that is, you will see things that you shouldn't see!
Chaotic meteors mixed with countless colors streaked across the sky, tearing the blue sky into countless tiny fragments. Where the meteors passed, black objects of the same composition were derived, which intensified the erosion of the sky.

In just a few seconds, blood flowed from Lu Ning's eyes.

The power of the eyes was exhausted, and the scene just now seemed to be just an illusion. After Lu Ning closed his eyes and opened them again, the sky was still so clear and blue, and there were no monsters or anything.

However, she still felt cold.

It was some kind of "creature", or a certain ethnic group.Lu Ning didn't know if they were the real body of the monster on the mountain, but it was undoubtedly a goal that she couldn't reach at the moment.If this mission requires confrontation with such a monster, no one can escape.

After a little relief, Lu Ning felt a cold feeling on her face.She wiped it and found that there was a lot of blood on her hands.Strange to say, with so much blood flowing out of the eyes, not only did he not feel pain or damage his eyesight, but he could see the scene more clearly.

At this moment, a message came from the phone.

Cheng Wuling replied quickly:

[Monsters must exist, but there are more oddities throughout Danmar.Who made the monster?They are certainly not something that occurs naturally.In the next few days, you should try your best to act in the urban area and investigate the Danma Central Hospital, which should be fruitful. 】

Lu Ning was a little strange, but a strange movement immediately attracted her attention.

Not far from him, a forest under the hillside suddenly parted, and a person came out.

It was the woman in the trio that appeared before, and Lu Ning didn't pay much attention to her because she suddenly dispersed without saying much before, but there is a high probability that she could confirm the identity of the other party just from the brief contact before. It's a distribution center for tourists.

"Ok?"

Just when Lu Ning was about to step forward, the other party raised the camera hanging on his chest and took a picture of the sky.

Immediately, she too was discovered.

"You are...the person who was at the entrance of the cave just now." Seeing Lu Ning, Shen Xinyue just smiled slightly, "Are you a tourist from other places?"

"The distribution center."

Lu Ning spoke directly.

Shen Xinyue's face froze slightly, and the professional smile disappeared immediately: "You are also... wait, how do you know..."

"I'll talk about this later, did you see something? Just now, the flying in the sky—"

"Can you see it?" Shen Xinyue showed a somewhat astonished expression, "You will be given such a big convenience? What is your identity?"

Not a hallucination.

Seeing that Lu Ning's face was a little unhappy, Shen Xinyue thought for a while, picked up the camera and pulled out the photos taken before: "I followed and took pictures all the way here, and only through the camera can I record those things. How? Do you want to take a look?"

"Are you a secret explorer?" Lu Ning asked instead of going over.

"It seems that you are not a secret explorer anymore. My name is Shen Xinyue. I am indeed a secret explorer...a good defensive mentality." Shen Xinyue put down her camera and restored her smile: "Let's talk about cooperation. I don't think our tasks are in conflict. You Being able to travel with so many people also proves that your faction has no restrictions on acting alone, how about cooperating before turning your face?"

Shen Xinyue's performance is undoubtedly an experienced veteran. It seems that it is not uncommon to directly announce such things as cooperation and betrayal, but this is probably the person Lu Ning will face in the future. , no one survived simply, and no one took these seriously.

"The...conditions of cooperation."

Lu Ning narrowed her eyes and said.

"I was attacked by unknown humanoid monsters on the way I was driving. Although they should be dead, I suspect there are more... These monsters are likely to be related to the monsters in the sky. I work in a news agency, and the news is naturally More well-informed and most importantly I'm local."

"You should have investigated the monster that attacked you."

"But I can keep this part of the information to earn points for myself instead of sharing it. You probably don't know yet, what are the criteria for the final score?"

Shen Xinyue's words really made Lu Ning interested.

"As the basis of cooperation, let me tell you that higher scores have nothing to do with faction or survival. Your personal performance is the only thing that determines the score. Completing tasks is only the most basic guarantee of scores. On top of that, you can explore The number of branches, the number of truths revealed, the degree of completion of personal identity, and the actions that directly affect the overall situation will all be counted into the final personal evaluation, and information is the basis of all this-in any testing field, the person who holds the position of information There is no doubt that it has a natural advantage!"

Lu Ning believes that these words are basically true, and she can also check these materials at the distribution center, but it only costs points, so she didn't go to see them.It's just that if these are true, another question arises...

"Information is the biggest advantage?"

"No, it's just to take the lead. So I don't mind sharing. If your eyes can see those things, this is the so-called compensation. The average advantage of everyone's initial status is equal, but this difference will still It leads to different results, and you will understand when you experience more. Finally, do you want to cooperate?"

Shen Xinyue's strength and self-confidence made Lu Ning suspect that she still had a lot to say, but this was normal, the two did not trust each other.After exchanging terminal numbers after a long distance, they separated again.

Not long afterward, Lu Ning met a rescue team and was taken out of the forest involuntarily.

What the hell is she doing?
This is a question that Lu Ning has been thinking about in a series of previous encounters.

How many camps are there in this confrontation?From the current point of view, it has been confirmed that the two camps of seekers and explorers do not have particularly aggressive missions. The man in the church who obviously showed a threatening look to himself may be able to judge that in other camps, his own The Hidden People are also a faction that can kill each other by nature, so they have already been involved in the struggle between the four factions.

She doesn't believe that there is no confrontation between all the camps, otherwise it would be meaningless to distinguish them, but the range she can touch is really limited, and she can't have an overall understanding of what happened in the entire city.

This is completely different from the small world in the villa before.

"thank you for your reply."

The reporter who came to interview thanked Lu Ning, and then immediately rushed to the next person.Of course, Danma Daily is not the only media here. After the rescue team closed the mountain, more media also came to get first-hand information.Lu Ning was the first to be sent down the mountain, after which Gao Yunji and Fei Yunwei were also brought down by the search and rescue team, followed by Yuan Xi and Xiao Shifan—this man looked a little embarrassed, but there were no traumatic injuries.

Liu Changan, and the three people who came out behind did not come out of the mountain.

"Where are you?" Lu Ning couldn't help sending a message to Shen Xinyue, for fear that this person would die somewhere early.

"I'm a reporter. You can just mix in any interview crowd. If you want to exchange information, you can take something of value and send it to this mailbox." The other party replied quickly and sent an address.

"What information do you have?"

"How about the newspapers and video materials of the month before and after the Frost Day celebration in the past 20 years, as well as the list of 130 six missing persons, including identity information?"

Shen Xinyue threw out a price tag with sufficient weight.

After returning to the hotel, Lu Ning inquired again about Danma's previous missing persons information. After receiving the information from Shen Xinyue, she carried out a comparison and quickly identified more than [-] missing persons on the past celebration video.

"The resolution of the video too early is not enough, and I don't have time to do such a large number of comparisons, so I might as well ask someone for help."

Lu Ning called Yuan Xi. This young lady should have no shortage of technical support based on her status.

When the truth behind the scenes was involved, Yuan Xi immediately came downstairs.She does have the qualifications to call for foreign aid—outside of this closed world, Yuan Xi can also get help from the "family".The same is true of Xiao Shifan, the two of them made a copy of the list and the video, and then contacted here.Lu Ning watched from the side, and probably understood that this was the convenience brought to them by the identities of these seekers—they were unable to perceive supernormal situations, but they had good behind-the-scenes abilities.

——"The initial conditions for all people are different, but they should all be average."

Shen Xinyue's words are correct, any visitor to the distribution center must have grasped their own advantages, unless they haven't realized it yet.

"The amount of comparison is very large, and it will take about [-] hours to complete all the searches." Yuan Xi quickly got the results.

"Such a long time?"

"Insufficient clarity requires post-processing, and a large number of videos lasting several hours may even require repeated comparisons. Before that, let's summarize the current situation."

The suspicion on the mountain seemed to have never existed at this moment, Yuan Xi quickly told Lu Ning about the situation on his side.
