Apocalypse: I pick up trash in a survival game

Chapter 102 Communication, distortion radiation?
Kou Dingshan's words were like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart, and for a moment the whole room fell into deathly silence.

A solemn look appeared on everyone's face, as if they were shrouded by an invisible pressure.

After a long while, Dong Xingyu slowly broke the silence. His voice was low and serious: "That's right, we must be extra careful. Judging from the current situation, the dangerous factors in the outside world are far more than just the extreme cold. There may be some unknown monsters hidden." As he spoke, he looked around vigilantly.

Zhongsun Junhao immediately agreed, "Let's move quickly. Collect the books we need and leave this place as soon as possible. After all, judging from the bloodstains and the degree of freezing of the body at the scene, this person died not long ago, which means that an unknown monster may be lurking nearby."

At this time, Suning was staring intently at the slightly stiff corpse.

After careful observation, it can be found that the deceased was attacked by some extremely powerful creature, causing him to die instantly.

According to preliminary estimates, the victim died approximately one hour ago.

Jiang Nana standing by couldn't bear the horrific sight before her. Her face turned pale as paper and her body was shaking slightly.

Seeing that Su Ning was staring at the corpse, Jiang Nana couldn't help but walk up to him, gently tugged at the corner of Su Ning's clothes, and whispered, "Let's go quickly..."

Suning did not linger for long. She quickly withdrew her gaze and began to collect the books that interested her in an orderly manner.

Of course, these books are not only worth reading, but can also be used as fuel.

Although their primary goal of this operation was to find coal, any useful resources should not be easily missed.

However, what Suning did not expect was that Zhongsun Junhao showed his spatial ability without reservation.

Kou Dingshan noticed that Suning was staring at Zhongsun Junhao intently, so he took the initiative to explain: "Junhao's talent is the power of space. Because of this, I invited him to join this coal search, so that he can keep the collected coal properly and distribute it after returning."

After hearing this, Suning nodded slightly to show his understanding, but did not show any surprise as Kou Dingshan expected.

In fact, spatial ability is nothing rare for Suning.

However, she would naturally not easily reveal the secret that she also possessed a space. Instead, like everyone else, she gave all her favorite books to Zhongsun Junhao to carry.

When they finished searching the bookstore and were about to leave, they were surprised to find that the snowstorm that had originally stopped had started again, and it was even more severe than before.

Faced with such bad weather, Dong Xingyu couldn't help but sigh: "Under such circumstances, it may not be easy to move forward smoothly."

Although Dong Xingyu has the special ability to melt the wind and snow, frequently using this talent will also cause his physical strength to be rapidly depleted.

Kou Dingshan frowned and said, "In this case, we have no choice but to rest in this bookstore for a while."

Despite this, no one dared to relax or be alert about the body on the second floor.

Suning picked up some damaged books without hesitation and wanted to call the little fire cat.

At this moment, the little fire cat still looked superior and arrogant.

After all, Suning is not its owner, so it cannot order it to do things at will.

Fortunately, Suning has the skills to tame animals.

So, Suning opened the backpack behind him, took out a sausage from it, and called softly to the little fire cat: "Little cat, help me start a fire, this sausage is yours."

The little fire cat, which was originally so arrogant, instantly lost its composure when it smelled the tempting aroma of the ham sausage.

Coupled with the affinity brought by Suning's unique taming skills, the little fire cat couldn't help but approach Suning.

Little Fire Cat muttered to himself: Oh my god, why do I feel like I am completely out of control! Could it be that this two-legged beast in front of me is a terrible demon? It can actually control my body at will! Oh no, I have to find a way to protect my master quickly, and I must not let her fall into any danger! Humph, look at the thing in the hands of this two-legged beast, it must be some powerful secret weapon, let this cat destroy it!

At this moment, the little fire cat jumped up with lightning speed and accurately bit the sausage in Suning's hand.

Then with a sweep, the flame on the tail burned the broken books that Suning had gathered.

Jiang Nana, who was standing by, witnessed all this and was a little curious: "How did you do it? Xiao Miao sometimes doesn't even listen to me."

Su Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said half-jokingly: "Maybe this is what is called personal charm?"

Hearing this, Jiang Nana couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but then she came to her senses and shook her head gently, "You are such a joke." At this moment, everyone sat around the warm fire, quietly listening to the sound of the snowstorm coming from outside the house.

The whistling wind was like a ferocious beast, making people unable to help but think wildly.

Suning picked up a book and started reading, trying to immerse himself in it and forget the chaos around him.

Kou Dingshan noticed everyone's emotions and felt that this was not a solution.

He cleared his throat and began to recount his thrilling experience in the previous copy.

"It would be great if I could go back to the previous copy next time. That way, maybe I could get more magical animals like the Little Fire Cat." His words were full of anticipation.

Speaking of this, Suning's eyes lit up.

After all, although she has many pets, they are still different from natural monsters like Little Fire Cat.

Like Honghong and Huahua, they can only be regarded as beings that were born after some kind of mutation.

At the same time, Dong Xingyu and Zhong Sun Junhao were also very interested in the copy that Kou Dingshan entered.

Seeing that everyone was interested, Kou Dingshan slowly explained: "This dungeon is called [Monster Ruins]. It is extremely dangerous, and it can be called a nightmare. This is a world that has been completely destroyed by countless hideous monsters. Monsters of all shapes and sizes are rampant everywhere. However, as the saying goes, the greater the risk, the higher the reward. It is precisely because of this that I was able to accidentally find the extremely precious egg of Little Fire Cat in a corner."

At this point, Kou Dingshan still patted his chest with some fear, "In order to get this egg, I went through many life-threatening situations and was hunted down by those vicious guys for a long time!"

Everyone listened to Kou Dingshan's story, and Jiang Nana leaned on Kou Dingshan's shoulder happily.

Because Kou Dingshan gave him the monster egg that he obtained after surviving a life-threatening situation.

After hearing the news about other copies, Zhong Sun Junhao also fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he raised his head and looked at the others, and asked in a serious tone: "Have you ever heard of a copy called [Distortion Radiation]?"

After hearing Zhongsun Junhao's question, everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Zhongsun Junhao explained again, "This dungeon is extremely dangerous. It is like a nightmare, and its horror is beyond imagination. According to statistics, the number of players who can successfully return from this dungeon is less than one-tenth! What's more terrifying is that those players who have returned by chance have more or less suffered adverse effects from the dungeon in terms of their physical condition and talent."

Just by hearing the name of this copy, everyone can tell that this impact will definitely not be a good thing.

As expected by Suning, he then heard Zhongsun Junhao talk about the amazing changes that took place in these returning players.

"In the First Shelter, there was once a soldier who went through untold hardships and finally survived from this dungeon. But unfortunately, due to the erosion of the strong radiation in the dungeon, his original talent [Clairvoyance] was completely distorted..."

At this point, Zhongsun Junhao paused for a moment, and after a while, he took a deep breath and continued, "Now, his body has begun to grow countless eyes uncontrollably."

"Hiss!" Kou Dingshan and Dong Xingyu gasped at the same time, with looks of surprise on their faces.

They couldn't imagine how weird and creepy it would be to have a person covered with eyes.

However, this is not the worst case scenario.

"Even more puzzling is the officer's dangerously unstable mental state," he continued. "Perhaps because his body was constantly growing eyes, he developed an almost morbid obsession with them, even wanting to dig out other people's eyes to satisfy some deep desire in his heart."

"Oh my God, this copy has such a huge impact on people?" After hearing this description, everyone present was shocked.

Everyone fell silent, unable to imagine how some copies would eventually have such an impact on the players.

After all, if no effective method can be found to resist the negative effects of the copy, then anyone who steps into it may face a life-and-death test.

Zhongsun Junhao nodded. In fact, what he wanted to say was that his brother had also entered this copy, which caused Zhongsun Junzhang to disappear after returning and his whereabouts were unknown.

As everyone was talking, a shrill scream and a terrifying roar reached everyone's ears.
