Alien Dust

Chapter 3: Sunning Bones

Wu Hen stood where he was.

The heat from the bonfire nearby made my arms feel a little hot, but the rest of my body was cold!!

This girl is a monster too!!
And it coexists with the head-cutting evil spirit!!
The aftereffect of surviving the disaster just now surged into my mind again, and my heart couldn't stop beating wildly!

It's really outrageous!!

What kind of world is this?
If I didn't really know sign language, this symbiotic monster might not give up? ?
Cold sweat soaked my whole body!!
Is he doomed? Because this girl can see him and knows that he is alive. She can directly order the head-cutting evil ghost to take off his head! !

In this case, no matter how hard I struggle, it will be useless!
Is it a dead end after all?

Wu Hen stood there, waiting for the final execution...

But strange things still happened.

The roots grew on the back of the evil ghost. After the girl "rode" on the evil ghost, she just glanced at Wu Hen with boredom. With a hint of disdain, she patted the head-cutting evil ghost, signaling it to leave.

The head-cutting evil ghost didn't even look back, like a father carrying his daughter on his back, walking towards home at dusk.

The girl and the evil ghost did not hide this time, but walked completely into the depths of the town...

Even though he witnessed with his own eyes that they really left this time, Wu Hen still stood there in fear for a long time.

This time, the lingering fear felt like swallowing poisonous snake eggs, and he didn't know when they would break out of the shell and drill into his internal organs.

It is almost impossible to completely calm down!

……

Rested for a long, long time,
Wu Hen knew that there was no point in him staying where he was.

He knew clearly why he came here.

Got to keep moving forward!
He looked around again.

Behind and on the left and right is a huge rainforest. One glance at it tells you that it is extremely primitive and must be full of dangers.

In front of us is the small town that stretches towards the rainforest cliff. Looking along the road in front of us, we can see some people wandering around, as if they are a group of homeless refugees...

There is a stable next to the inn in front of the town.

There was a horse in the stable. Its eyes were bloodshot and bulging. It seemed that it could see something terrible approaching and was acting very uneasy.

It kept twisting its neck and stomping its four hooves in the mud in a panic.

"Snapped!"

The reins were torn off by it, and the red horse broke free and ran out of the town in panic!
It galloped all the way, fleeing towards the rainforest.

But just as its figure disappeared into the rain forest, the red date horse let out a miserable cry! !
Wu Hen looked in the direction of the red date horse. In the blink of an eye, he saw the horse turned into a skeleton! !

The red date horse was still running on the grass in the last second, as if it had entered a machine that could peel and debone it, and in the next second, only the bones were left...

The most horrifying thing was that the horse’s skeleton was still running away, rushing deeper into the rainforest until it crashed into a big tree and completely fell apart!

Everything happened so abruptly and so quickly, as if it itself did not have time to realize that its skin and flesh had been separated from it!
The clean white bones without even a trace of blood were scattered on the grass, causing Wu Hen's legs to go limp as he was not far away!
There was a moment before when Wu Hen was planning to walk into the rainforest!
It turns out that the great terror is not just the symbiotic evil ghost...

What's outrageous is that I didn't even see what was inside the red date horse skin bag!
terrible!

Compared to the unknown and brutality in the rainforest, Wu Hen felt that the evil woman whose lower body was roots looked a bit prettier.

……

After adjusting his mindset, Wu Hen continued walking towards Jue Town.

The town has only one main cross street, and the rest are small alleys.

Except for the shops on the main street which look relatively new, most of the buildings elsewhere are dilapidated.

Lichens and vines can be seen everywhere, growing wildly, and even some houses have grown together with the plants...

However, no matter how dilapidated and messy this town is, there is only one thing that is particularly consistent, and that is quietness!

This kind of silence was unusual. There was no sound of insects or birds. Even though there were people walking around in the town, they were all walking on tiptoe, afraid of stepping on broken glass or knocking down a swinging sign...

There are quite a few homeless people in the town, but since they can’t make any sound, everyone basically communicates through eye contact.

Wu Hen couldn't tell whether they were people who had entered the virtual world like him, or whether they were natives of this virtual world.

The town is not big, and it doesn't take too long to walk around.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang~~~~~" Suddenly, the sound of bells came from an alley.

This sound should be very common, just the wind chimes hanging in front of some people's houses ringing, but in this small town it is absolutely adrenaline-pumping!

Wu Hen happened to be just outside the alley.

He heard it very clearly!
Of course, this sound was not made by him.

For some unknown reason, Wu Hen stuck his head out and took a look into the alley!
At this glance, Wu Hen saw the outline of an evil ghost, which slowly emerged from the background of the wall...

It didn't seem like it had flashed here from somewhere else, but rather it had been hiding under the wall for a long time, coldly waiting for its prey to take the bait!

At the deepest part of the alley, a young man in a leather jacket stood there with his back against the wall.

He held a diamond-like fragment in his hand, and his eyes were staring at a very thin silk thread with horror, at the other end of which was a bell!
Wu Hen didn't know what the diamond-like thing was, but he knew someone had stepped into a trap! !

It's a trap set by that symbiotic demon!!
It was like a mousetrap. In the eyes of the symbiotic evil ghost, this young man in leather jacket was no different from a mouse with its head caught!
"Haha, you disguised yourself as the Lost One very well. You actually stayed in my territory for a whole month..." the symbiotic banshee said with a smile.

The young man in leather jacket didn't dare to speak, but one could still see his desire to live in his eyes.

"It's a pity that in the end you couldn't resist the temptation of this tiny piece of crystal. You didn't dare to steal the Yuanyou in the middle of the square, so you set your sights on the fragment..." the symbiotic banshee continued.

"Don't... don't kill me!! I will do whatever you want me to do!!!" Suddenly, the young man in leather jacket spoke. He looked humble and panicked, not like a "player" at all.

"Oh, you spoke, that's great!!" The symbiote suddenly became excited.

When the young man in leather jacket heard these words, he suddenly realized something and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably!
At this moment, his eyes were no longer filled with the desire to survive, but rather with the fear that a nightmare had just begun!

"He is mine." said the Symbiote.

The head-cutting evil ghost retracted its claws, but the symbiotic banshee suddenly stretched out the roots under her skirt, and these roots fiercely pierced into the body of the young man in leather jacket!

It is not completely pierced through, but more like a bunch of thick straws, and you can clearly see the roots wriggling rapidly!

Sucking blood and bone marrow!!
At the entrance of the alley, Wu Hen saw the young man in leather jacket shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

During the drying process, the young man was awake the entire time. The pain and struggle on his face were something Wu Hen had never seen in his life...

For a moment, Wu Hen felt a chill down his spine. He could imagine that if he had spoken to the girl not long ago, the torture of being drained alive would have happened to him!

This scene is really horrifying.

Wu Hen was worried that his heart rate would soar again, so he hurriedly left the bloody torture scene.

“Rumble~~~~~~~~~~~”

A muffled thunder sounded in the sky, making the already turbid air even more oppressive and dull.

Wu Hen needs a little time to adjust his mood.

He even had some difficulties and doubts.

That young man should be the same as himself, someone who entered the virtual world, panning for gold and searching for Yuanyou.

He should have known that all this was virtual, but why didn't he show any sign of this before he died?

Although in real life some people would be scared to collapse after entering a haunted house, they could just shout, I don’t want to play anymore, I don’t want to play anymore!

This young man in leather jacket did not...

"Rumble~~~~~~~~~"

Another bolt of thunder struck, shrill and pale, making the town even more eerie.

Unconsciously, Wu Hen had reached the cliff of Juezhen. The area extending towards the huge fault was made into the town square, which was also used for gatherings and markets in the past.

Now this cliff square is very empty. There are no stalls or decorations inside, only grains covering the ground!
It’s strange, why are there people drying millet in the Juezhen Square?
"Boom!!"

Another flash of lightning cut through the clouds above the cliff. With the help of this lightning, Wu Hen could suddenly see clearly what the grains covering the entire square were!
It's bones!
The entire cliff square is covered with human bones!!
They were ground into grains of bone like millet!!!

When I was in the countryside, I could always see uncles drying millet on a large flat ground. The golden color all over the ground was very beautiful and fulfilling...

But when the millet turned into bones, the feeling of horror went straight to the top of my head!
Oh my God, how many people did that symbiotic demon kill? The bone fragments could actually cover an entire square!
And how perverted is that evil woman? Why did she throw all the people she killed into the square? Could it be that she would get the same satisfaction as the farmers drying their grains? ?

Although he was horrified, Wu Hen's eyes were inevitably drawn to something at the other end of the square.

There is an altar near the edge of the cliff, and above the altar is floating a shadow - Ghostly Fire!
This faint glow is like a special kind of fire, or like a mysterious pearl in the ocean, making it difficult to tell whether it is gas, liquid or solid.

And the luster it exudes is like that of agate and jade, extremely attractive!
