Minecraft: Steve came to the back room

"Hey, this stuff is rare when used sparingly, and even if you apply too much, the effect is just so-so."

Yang Bo cautiously stepped forward and picked up the small white plastic bottle from the ground.

"Moth jelly containing skin-stealing cells"

"Eating this item restores 10 hunger points and increases satiety by 8 points."

"Poisoning I 00:10"

"P.S.: Applying moth jelly to the area around the eyes can indeed provide a faint, luminous vision, but this one won't work."

There was definitely a problem.

A homeless person who can produce moth jelly is definitely not a novice, and a novice homeless person would never wander around during a major power outage.

They wouldn't come over just because they heard a commotion.

Without making a sound, I put away the problematic moth jelly, then took a small amount of it out of my backpack and applied it around my eyes.

A slightly cool sensation came over me.

In an instant, the pitch-black habitable warehouse floor became incredibly bright, and he could even see male death moths fluttering their wings in the distance.

These dead moths, only the size of a fist, are neutral entities. They will not attack the wanderers unless the wanderers attack them first.

'This? The effect is minimal?!'

However, Yang Bo soon noticed the status message next to the backpack section.

Night Vision 59:57

He gained an hour of night vision.

He put the now-useless flashlight back into his backpack, then smiled and said, "Thank you for the moth-shaped jelly, friend. Do you know where the nearest human settlement is?"

Seeing that Yang Tao's eyes were already covered with light purple moth jelly, the other party also showed a sincere smile, although the smile looked rather stiff.

"I know, I came out of the settlement looking for supplies, but I never expected to run into this kind of weird situation."

"Come with me, I'll take you there, and we'll be safe once we get there."

After saying that, the man carefully continued walking forward, and Yang Bo stared at the back of his head.

With the help of night vision, he was able to clearly see an eye hidden beneath the other person's hair, staring at him.

Gripping the pipe wrench tightly, I followed behind the other person, deliberately lowering my voice to ask:

"I wonder when this light will turn on."

"It's possible. Sometimes it might be a few hours, and sometimes it might be a few days, but that's rare."

Chapter 6, Level 1: Maintaining the Corridor

"We'll be there soon."

Through their hushed conversations along the way, Yang Bo had already learned that the enthusiastic 'skin thief' was named Jack.

They usually live in the Level 1 habitable warehouse level, and occasionally go to the Level 2 or Level 3 levels to look for some useful resources.

Yang Bo felt that the situation described by the other party should be the same as the experience of the skin thief killing that person last time, the only difference being that the person did not survive.

"Are you thirsty? I have water and food here."

Yang Bo looked at the bread and bottled water offered to him and accepted them with a somewhat flattered air, without refusing.

“Mr. Jack, it’s fortunate that I met you, otherwise I’m afraid I would have died at the hands of those physical beings.”

"hehe."

Jack gave a cryptic smile: "We're all wanderers, it's only right that we help each other."

Yang Bo nodded slightly, then glanced at the hunting dog that peeked out from around the corner and then retreated. He couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

Along the way, he saw many entities thanks to his night vision, but those entities only glanced at them before leaving.

Clearly, those entities had already regarded him as the prey of the skin thief in front of them, glancing down at the bread and mineral water in their hands.

"Mineral water containing dermal cells"

"Restores 2 hunger points after drinking".

"Poisoning I 00:10"

P.S.: Theoretically, it's not poisonous.

"Sliced ​​bread containing skin cells"

"Eating this item restores 4 hunger points and increases satiety by 2 points."

"Poisoning I 00:10"

"P.S.: It just contains some highly aggressive cells."

Entity 10 Skin Thief, scientific name Homo capgras, means 'fake human being'.

As a predatory species with polymorphic capabilities, skin thieves are commonly found on floors inhabited by humans or other intelligent beings, and have posed a significant threat to human civilization in the back rooms.

Skin thieves are solitary creatures who do not hunt with their own kind. They prefer to use lies and deception to subtly kill, absorb, and assimilate their prey and even the entire species without them realizing it.

In order to hunt and control their prey, skin thieves create a special cell and secretly inject it into their target prey.

The most common route is through saliva exchange (such as kissing, spitting/saliva, vomiting, or sexual transmission).

Through these actions, skin thieves skillfully deliver saliva containing skin-stealing cells, produced by the glands in the mouth and throat, into the mouth, blood, or other exposed body cavities of their victims.

'You want me to eat your saliva? I'll make you fly in a minute.'

Led by the kind-hearted Brother Jie, the two arrived at a dark black metal door.

"We're here."

Jack stepped forward and placed his hand on the metal doorknob: "It's quite large inside, and normally no physical entities will come over."

As he pushed open the door, the light from the incandescent bulb momentarily blinded Yang Bo, causing him to instinctively squint.

boom.

A metallic clanging sound rang out.

"You're being a bit too presumptuous. We've only just met, and you're already trying to open up to me."

Yang Bo's voice rang out as he used his pipe wrench to block the other man's sharp claws that were about to open up to him.

He raised his leg and kicked the guy hard in the stomach. The skinner felt a huge force hit his abdomen and his body flew backward uncontrollably into the space behind the metal door.

As soon as they entered, a strong smell of blood assaulted their nostrils.

'Looks like this is the hideout and kitchen of this skin thief…'

This is a short corridor with white walls, unlike the gray concrete walls of the warehouse area.

Straight punch, hook punch, uppercut!

Slide it straight!

With his unreasonable ability to push back, Yang Bo cornered the skin thief against the wall. While the creature was pressed against the wall, he took out a pipe wrench and smashed it hard on the man's temple.

puff.

A slippery sensation came over me, and the skin on the skin thief's face was ripped off with pipe wrenches, revealing an unfamiliar face.

Seeing this, Yang Bo was surprised but did not stop what he was doing.

"and many more!!"

puff.

This time, the angle was adjusted, and the slippery feel disappeared, replaced by the sensation of crushing bones.

Some translucent white liquid flowed from its wound.

Ignoring the other party's desire to talk, Yang Bo's face paled slightly, but he still raised the pipe wrench again.

After all, they are humanoid beings.

If it weren't for blood tests, these skin thieves would be very difficult to distinguish from ordinary people now.

This is why skin thieves are the biggest threat to human settlements.

Colorful experience orbs, along with extra loot, flew off the Skin Thief.

"Bones x4"

"PS: It can be used to tame dogs, or it can be broken down into bone meal. It's also good for hitting people on the head."

Yang Bo stood there, holding the murder weapon in his hand, staring at the skin thief who had completely lost his life.

"Seriously stubborn..."

Literally, this guy's head was hit by pipe wrenches three times before it finally exploded, while the hound only got it hit twice.

The main reason was that his disguised human skin blocked one of his attacks.

The skin thief looked so human that even though Yang Bo was mentally prepared, he still felt physically uncomfortable.

"Actually, if you didn't eat people, you could be considered a subspecies of humans with pica..."

Wake up! Humans simply cannot accept a chimpanzee who proposes cannibalism.

"The pipe wrench is still not enough. We need to find some heavy weapons, or... long-handled weapons."

Without trees, there are no logs; without logs, there are no planks.

To unleash Steve's full potential, you'll at least need to find a tree.

Looking at the corpse of the skin thief on the ground, Yang Bo hesitated.

Judging from the fallen bones, the bones inside the skin thief's body should also be usable.

Yang Bo squatted down and took the travel bag off the skin thief's back, then opened it.

It contained some ordinary daily necessities, but without exception, all of these items had been 'poisoned'.

"Why are you spitting like that? You have absolutely no manners."

Taking the dagger out of his backpack, Yang Bo took a deep breath and then forcefully stabbed the skin thief in the thigh.
