Chaos, darkness.

Waves of hazy feelings came from my body.

Xia Meilin covered her groggy head and gradually woke up.

When she regained consciousness, she immediately remembered everything, her heart tightened, and she quickly looked for the figure, but found that there was no one everywhere. Everywhere she saw were dark and desolate streets, surrounded by small and dilapidated old buildings.

, it was gloomy and gloomy, as if it had experienced some kind of disaster. It couldn't feel any life, only the cold and dead atmosphere.

As she looked at it, Xia Meilin discovered something was wrong. The dilapidated building seemed to be covered with a layer of blood.

She subconsciously raised her head to look at the night sky, and immediately saw a scarlet blood moon, like a large red lantern hanging high, reflecting a large area of ​​scarlet light, covering the entire town.

The moment she saw the blood moon, Xia Meilin shuddered involuntarily and quickly looked away, as if she had seen something ominous, causing panic and fear. At the same time, she had a strong intuition that this place was definitely not a good place!

Thinking of this, her face turned pale, and she stood up quickly, preparing to look for traces of Luo Yi, as if he was by her side to be truly safe.

But the next second, the mission information appeared directly in her consciousness.

"Trial mission: Escape from Blood Moon Town."

"Mission introduction: In the once peaceful town, a terrifying troll suddenly descended. This was the executioner sent by the evil god, killing all life. The evil aura blocked the place. The only way out was the transmission channel established by the church.

But it requires energy stones to open."

"Task content: Go to different locations marked on the map, obtain the energy stones scattered in the church, place them at nine transmission points, activate the transmission channels, and leave the Blood Moon Town. During this process, the trolls will hunt the trialists.

Kill, but each trialist will randomly get a mission prop to help pass the level. Once dead, the mission prop will drop at the place of death, and other trialists can pick it up according to the map mark..."

"Completer: Obtained player identity, corresponding permissions, and rewards."

"Loser: Become the troll's blood food."

"During the mission, the greater the contribution, the higher the evaluation, and the greater the reward."

"...You have thirty seconds to prepare. You can learn the current mission information from your personal system."

Personal system and mission information were simultaneously loaded into Xia Meilin's sea of ​​consciousness, as if they were originally part of her memory.

For example, how to open the map of a small town? Just say the word "map" silently, and the mini-map in the game will appear in front of you, with various special marks. You can tell at a glance where the energy stones are scattered.

There is a placement point, and at the same time, there is detailed information about its own location, as well as the locations of other trialists and their distances from each other.

In less than three seconds, Xia Meilin fully understood the contents of the mission. She opened the temporary props bar of her personal system and checked the randomly obtained mission props.

"Three bottles of potion..."

Xia Meilin smiled bitterly. What she was looking forward to just now was to get a weapon-like prop, which would make her feel safer. When she thought of this, she immediately remembered that the guy said that there was no need for weapons...

etc!

Could it be that the troll he mentioned was this troll?

Did he know the mission content from the beginning?

Well, he asked me to remember to stay rational at all times and lower my breathing rate...

If a flash of inspiration flashed across Xia Meilin's mind, she took a slow, deep breath, began to adjust, kept calm, and kept recalling Luo Yi's relevant words, including how to use the suit on her body.

After regaining her composure, she activated the leg assistance of her suit, increased her speed, and began to cautiously go to the nearest spot where the energy stones were scattered, hoping to meet Luo Yi in the process.

Thirty seconds passed quickly, and the trialists shrouded under the blood moon took action one after another. They almost held the same idea and headed to the nearest energy stone location, hoping to complete this trial as soon as possible.

However, only one guy who was not a trialist stayed away from these positions.

This person is naturally Luo Yi.

He was not the selected trialist, did not receive the mission information, and did not have the trialist's props or personal system. However, the system sent a message informing him that he was an unexpected visitor and could choose to return or become a

It is a small task, but it does not provide any help. The task is to survive until the end of the trial and you will get a reward.

"What I want is not just a small reward."

Luo Yi turned on the combat boots under his feet, and his figure quickly became a blurred black line, like a ghost blending into the shadows, walking through the dim streets, moving away from the center of the town, and arriving on a hillside at the edge.

The surrounding area was completely bare, and one could easily spot a large sword stuck in the soil slope.

"This is it, the knight's great sword."

Luo Yi stepped forward and pulled out the big sword. The sword was two meters long and very heavy to hold. The blade was corroded with rust, and there was no sharp or cold light.

If you look at it in the eyes of others, it is just a broken weapon and will not be used at all. The big sword in particular is too heavy. It consumes a lot of energy and is bulky to swing. If you use it to fight the enemy, you are just looking for death.

"Next step, wash the great sword, then ask the trialist for a healing potion, pull the unlucky guy up, resist and consume the power of the troll, and give me time to do other things -"

Luo Yi had a complete plan in mind, so he directly picked up the sword and returned the same way.

It is not difficult to find the tester. There will be traces of the tester wherever you go. However, the only variable is that not every tester's mission props are healing drugs, so it requires a little luck.

As for whether others will give it or not, it is not within the scope of his consideration.

After a while, Luo Yi returned to the center of the town.

Just when I was about to go to the next location, suddenly there was a shrill scream not far away, which spread fiercely throughout the dead night sky, making people's hair stand on end.

Within a few seconds, the howling stopped abruptly, as if it had been cut off abruptly.

"It's bad luck, the troll has locked onto this area!"

Luo Yi's expression changed, and he immediately stopped his accelerating pace, adjusted his breathing, and lowered his heartbeat from the violent running just now. His mood became calm, his pace was low and inaudible, and he quietly disappeared under the shadow of the surrounding houses.

Boom——

Boom——

Boom——

After a while, a burst of extremely heavy footsteps seemed to penetrate the earth, stepping on people's hearts step by step, stimulating every nerve, like a life-threatening ghost roaring in the ears, and even the air became dull.

Depressed, it makes people panic and makes their souls tremble.

"Woo!——"

A figure huddled in the corner covered his mouth with all his strength, his pupils were dilated, and his heart was beating wildly.

As the dull footsteps approached, a humanoid monster with a ferocious and twisted face, a strong and tall body, and a dark green body appeared. Its naked upper body was condensed with dark red plasma, as if layers of blood armor were blessing the knotted muscles.

On the way, wherever you pass, the air is filled with a strong and pungent smell of blood!

Suddenly, two streaks of gray-white mist spewed out from the monster's nostrils, as if it was aware of the violent heartbeat and panic hidden in the shadows. Instantly, its scarlet eyeballs were locked in one direction, holding a bone-cutting sword with a flashing edge.

He took up increasingly violent steps, like an out-of-control giant elephant, and charged forward ferociously!

"no no!!"

A woman hiding in the corner screamed in fear and immediately ran for her life in panic.

Dong dong dong——

In the darkness, the troll's pace was fierce and rapid, like a talisman. It clung to the back of the fleeing woman, raising its bone-cutting sword high. Under the reflection of the blood moon, a sharp orangutan flashed across the blade.

Mang, it will be chopped off with a knife soon!

Under the intense stimulation of the survival instinct, the woman screamed and ran very fast, and she knew how to use the environment as a cover, dodging left and right.

Just at the corner in front, she made a sharp turn and turned into a narrow alley. She avoided the troll's fatal knife and at the same time threw a small ball, which rolled into the troll's head.

in front of.

Boom!

An explosive fireball shot straight into the sky, tearing apart the entire dark red night in an instant. The troll at the center of the explosion was directly impacted by the fireball and flew away, and a raging fire broke out on the ground.

"Well, fireball bombs are one of the most powerful weapons against trolls. It's a bit wasteful for newcomers to use them to escape. But when she dies, the props will respawn, so you can go and pick them up."

Luo Yi, who was hiding at the other end, guessed from the moment the troll appeared that there must be another guy hiding, otherwise the troll wouldn't have locked this area.

The trialist's fear, heartbeat...all negative factors are the key to attracting trolls.

Although Luo Yi has not restored his former warrior status, he has retained the experience and skills of a hardcore player, such as his strong self-control and a clear understanding of the mechanics of the troll.

This is one of the copy NPCs created in Infinite Space. As long as its mechanism is not triggered, it will not be locked. You can even use its mechanism to achieve certain things.

However, for early newcomers, with insufficient intelligence and low strength, the troll is indeed an invincible opponent.

Just like the woman in front of her who mistakenly thought she could escape with her life, she had no idea that if she didn't eliminate her fear, adjust her breathing, and calm her violent heartbeat, it would be impossible to escape the troll's hunt.

What's worse is that blowing up the troll undoubtedly made this monster completely angry.

"Roar!"

The troll, whose whole body was burning with fire, turned over, raised its head and let out a furious roar. Hot steam was spurting out from every pore. With a move of its feet, it trampled the ground violently, violently as thunder, and immediately set off a wave of fire in all directions.

A powerful burst of energy instantly extinguished the fire in his body!
