after falling asleep

Chapter 861 32. Human traces on the mountainside

Mantis monster corpses piled up around the cave.

There is no longer a rustling and crawling sound in response to the shouting and knocking players in front of the cave.

Shouting hoarsely, the player, who was as rough as a champion in martial arts, came back to Qianye: "The monsters have been cleaned up, fortunately, it's not a disgrace!"

After passing the player who cut off the mantis' forelimb, Qianye observed at the entrance of the cave for a while.

Just in case, they plan to choose another player to enter the cave to explore.Only this time no one wants to.

"Let me come."

Mu Su suddenly said at this time, the narration seemed to be whispering.

"Facing the crisis of no one exploring the cave, Musu decided to stand up and become a hero."

After hesitating for a moment, Qianye motioned to his companion: "...let him go."

The four players lower the raft and untie the rope.

"You know we are in the same camp, right?" Qianye said to the released Musu.

Mu Su, who was originally calm, suddenly looked shocked: "What?! We are in the same group!?"

"...?" Qianye tilted his head slightly, cleverly skipping this point: "Although you are not a player, we have the same enemy...so let's cooperate."

In any case, Mu Su joined the players, temporarily.

Before entering the cave, Mu Su picked up a few stones and a handful of sand.Players understand the former - when encountering a mantis, they can throw stones to make noise to confuse the mantis.

"Can I trust you?" Qianye asked seriously in front of the cave.

"Until death."

The players watched Musu's back disappear into the dark cave.

The wait is always long and torturous.What is disturbing is that a few minutes after Mu Su entered the cave, his screams echoed faintly from the depths...

"There are more in the depths."

Wang Wen Wen Qi whispered and looked at Qian Ye.

"Wait patiently for his reply." Qianye replied.

After tens of seconds of guarded waiting, they heard rustling sounds echoing deep in the cave.

Players clenched their weapons and stared into the depths of the darkness...

The sound is getting closer and clearer.Under the nervous gaze of the crowd, Musu who was picking his nostrils emerged from the darkness.

"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Where's your oil lamp?" Qianye looked at Musu suspiciously, signaling the players not to relax.

"Wrestling, wrestling, smashed." Mu Su grieved and spread out his palm, letting her see the bloody scratches on his palm.

"What's the matter with the shout?"

"Attract the hidden mantis." Mu Su bent down and patted the dust on his knees.

"But why does it sound like a scream?"

From knee to calf, Musu turned around and slapped his butt again, without raising his head, he said, "Isn't it reasonable to lure Mantis with the emotion of screaming?"

But it's weird being on you.

The arguing Qianye really couldn't refute it, but he was so good at making excuses, it shouldn't be a weird pretense.

Ignoring Musu's trivial movements, she looked up to observe the oppressive clouds that were darker than when she landed.

It won't be long before dark.

Forty or so players were divided into two parts.A small half stayed on the broken mountain to observe and guard, and the rest of the players entered the cave to explore.Not surprisingly, the players will spend the fourth round of the Death Tournament, the first night in the main world, in the cave.

Player Bloodmourne goes ahead of everyone else.

As a pioneer of pathfinding, he has gathered all the equipment on his body. The wooden plate armor connected with hemp rope and the iron inlaid cowhide boots are the only two armors. Doll head shoulder pads, gray long skirt to increase the wearer's presence and other equipment.

The mashup of Bloodmourne fully demonstrates that players will turn into ghosts in order to equip attributes.

"Everyone be careful!"

At this moment, Musu in the team screamed.

wow-

The players fell into confusion and alert, and Musu's voice continued to sound.

"It's so dark in the cave, don't hit the rocks!"

"Thank you so much."

Qianye, who almost guessed it, said weakly, signaling the stopped team to move on.

The burly Tianmo leaned closer and whispered: "Do you want us..." and gently brushed his palm across his throat.

"Just do it if you are not afraid of being spurned by the audience."

Tianmo sneered, "The audience won't pay attention to me anyway."

"Aren't Musu afraid of getting revenge on you?" Qianye praised his spirit of resistance, but now is not the time for internal strife: "Don't forget that he is not a contestant, he came here by himself and his companions... If he can come once, it will be big." The probability can come a second time..."

Recalling the shadow brought by Musu in the last round of the championship, Tianmo's broad shoulders instantly collapsed.

"I... I'm just talking."

Ignoring Musu's troubles, they quickly reached the first fork in the road: the two caves each lead to the depths.

A player stood up with his fingers wet with saliva to feel the wind direction for a moment, and everyone walked into the left passageway where there was no air circulation.

Repeat this step three times, and the secrets of the cave are gradually revealed.

The decayed moss, which is completely different from the color of the rock, appeared in front of it, and it was dark and gloomy under the light of the fire.

Bloodmourne squatted on the edge of the moss with clanging and crashing sounds. They seemed to be dead, and tentatively reached out to touch them.

The black moss became lighter as it faded, Bloodmourn paused slightly, and continued to wipe the "moss" with his hand.

After repeated wiping, the "moss" revealed a mottled blush close to its original color.

"Is it a creep?" The player who approached asked with a frown.

"It's a carpet... a wool carpet that has been placed for a long time." Qianye, who squatted down to observe, confirmed: "My family happens to have a wool carpet that my ancestors brought from the earth for the palace. It is the same as this one, but it is better preserved..."

"Damn descendants of capitalists."

Ignoring Musu's cursing, Qianye looked deep into the tunnel.

Isn't this cave formed naturally...

Knowing that it's just wool carpet and not disgusting creep or moss, players unburden themselves and move on.

And the changes in the cave are further revealed.

The cave has become straight, the rock walls are no longer irregular, there are picture frames that have not yet decayed, and broken chandeliers that occasionally see the ceiling fall off, but are still intact on the ground.

There are no traces of human beings here.

The originally oppressive and cramped cave has also become a promenade that looks like a noble mansion that has been dusty for thousands of years.

Players are faintly excited-"Lost Relics" can stimulate their desire to explore more than "Monster's Lair"-maybe they can find clues about the main world here.

Players who continue to go deeper soon arrive at a "garden" located inside the Broken Mountain.

It stands on the cave-like mountainside, and perhaps once bloomed with flowers and grass, but now only barren soil remains.

The players stayed here for a short time, but found nothing, so they continued to move forward.

It didn't take long before the players finally discovered the goal of the trip: the room.

Bloodmourne looked back at the others, and after getting permission, he held the doorknob and turned it——

Click.

The rotten doorknob was twisted off, and Bloodmourne looked at everyone in embarrassment.

"Break it out." Someone suggested.

Tianmo took over from Bloodmourne, approached the wooden door, and suddenly accelerated to slam it!
bang——

The wooden door couldn't withstand the impact after a thousand years, and it flew into the room in pieces.

Players backed off a distance to avoid danger from hiding inside the room, and to wait for the pervasive dust to settle.
