Xie Liuyi got up quickly and checked the air-raid shelter carefully, and found nothing abnormal.

Previously, the rat's nest escaped towards the tunnel she came from, so the thing that attacked the rat group is likely to be in the tunnel at the other end of the air-raid shelter.

She unconsciously squeezed a sword in her right hand and stepped into the tunnel vigilantly.

Most of the tunnel collapsed, and unknown tree roots mixed with dirt piled on the ground. There were several skinny rat corpses scattered on the mound, but there was nothing else.

Xie Liuyi walked along the tunnel to the next air raid shelter.

Until the road ahead was blocked, Xie Liuyi did not find anything unusual, so he had to return to the air-raid shelter where the rat corpse was found earlier, picked a rat corpse with a stone, and brought it back to the temporary camp.

During the day, players gather in the sun-drenched pipe gallery, where the air is cleaner.

In the light projected by the wellhead, a group of people formed a circle, Sun Xiaoyun squatted beside the mouse corpse brought back by Xie Liuyi, and fiddled with an arrow in each of her left and right hands.

Xie Liuyi shook his head, "No."

"No?" Sun Xiaoyun frowned slightly, and fiddled with the mouse corpse twice, "Can't find the wound... What the **** is today's boss?"

"Could it be a spider?" Ouyang Zhe touched his chin, "I heard that some poisonous spiders pour venom into the body of their prey, melt the prey, and **** it directly."

Speaking, she pursed her lips and made a suction motion. Xie Liuyi was so disgusted by his description that he clamped his upper and lower lips with two fingers, forcing him to shut his mouth.

."

Xie Liuyi retracted his hand and caressed his forehead helplessly. She is not afraid of heaven and earth, the only thing she is afraid of is insects.

Other players also have their brains open, some say mantis, some say blood leech, Xie Liuyi has an urge to slap people.

"Compared to the BOSS form, I am more concerned about why the BOSS doesn't attack us." Sun Xiaoyun frowned.

"It's not that simple," Ouyang Zhe pointed at Xie Liuyi, his mind widened, "Maybe the bosses can transmit information, the boss who died tragically in the hands of Xiao Xie fought with today's boss Say hello, let it not provoke us easily?"

He has always had a clear mind, no one will believe this, only Scarhead agrees with a face: "I also think that yesterday's BOSS died too badly. Brother, what do you think? ?"

Since just now, Qin Siyuan has been silent, his fingers twisted his cuffs unconsciously, as if he was meditating, when he heard Scar calling him, he did not respond, but took out his dagger and walked forward , cut open the mouse's corpse three or two times, took the arrow in Sun Xiaoyun's hand, and raised the mouse's skin to look closely at the sun.

The blazing sunlight at noon could not penetrate the mouse skin, but it reflected the tiny holes on the mouse skin, which were densely packed like pinholes.

"My dear, is this being besieged by a swarm of mosquitoes?" Scarhead said.

"It may also be a group of spiders." Ouyang Zhe insisted on his guess.

"Mosquito!"

"Spider!"

The two hold their own opinions and argue endlessly. Qin Siyuan didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't say anything. In the end, Xie Liuyi couldn't take it anymore, and one person gave him an elbow before they quieted down.

"I think..." Qin Siyuan dropped the mouse skin and said, "Today's boss is more like... hibernating."

"How?"

"Whether it's a mosquito or a spider, or something else, it **** up the mice to eat, right?" he asked, "What's the purpose of eating?"

Everyone looked at each other, wondering what he wanted to ask.

Qin Siyuan raised the corner of his mouth, "I eat so that I don't starve to death. If I don't starve to death, I can grow up, and when I grow up, I will become stronger. That thing hides and grows vulgarly."

Xie Liuyi reacted instantly, the boss put into the dungeon today, for some reason, it is not the strongest form, it needs to dormant first, by hunting mice, get the energy of growth, wait until it is fully grown Once successful, the player will be attacked.

What is it that needs to enter the copy and grow later?

Underground... labyrinth... soil... Xie Liuyi tried hard to recall what he had seen in the underground world, but he couldn't think of it for a while.

Suddenly, her ears moved to catch the sound in the distance. It was the sound of a swarm of rats, tens of thousands of them approaching.

Rats!

"Pack up the supplies." She opened her mouth to break the chatter of the players, "Go to the ground."

The players were stunned for a moment, Ouyang Zhe and Qin Siyuan moved first, packing up all the supplies. The rest of the players followed suit, carrying some of them one by one, and quickly climbed up the ladder.

Xie Liuyi was the last to go up. After reaching the ground, he listened for a while, and found that the rat tide was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that it was heading towards this exit.

She picked up the manhole cover next to her and held it in her hand, looking down solemnly.

"What did you find?" Ouyang Zhe came over and asked.

"The rat tide is coming." Xie Liuyi's voice was so calm that he seemed to say that the weather was really nice.

When the meaning of her words was realized, the players gasped and scattered backwards in unison. Only Xie Liuyi, Ouyang Zhe, Qin Siyuan, and Scarou were left at the wellhead.

Not long after, even other people heard the squeaks one after another, and the giant rat flooded into the pipe gallery, covering the ground in an instant. Looking down from the wellhead, you can only see giant rats as big as cats and dogs densely packed, squirming and stacked together to form a hill, and a steady stream of rats join in, getting closer and closer to the wellhead.

Seeing this scene, the three big men were horrified, Xie Liuyi looked calm, and when the first mouse stood on the top of the rat pile and was about to take off, he quickly covered the well with a snap.

dong-dong-dong-

The sound of the rat hitting the wellhead was incessant, Xie Liuyi stepped on the manhole cover, and the manhole cover remained motionless no matter how the rat below collided.

"Are these mice crazy?" Ouyang Zhe's face turned pale.

Xie Liuyi said nothing, and looked around vigilantly, trying to catch all suspicious sounds.

It didn't take long for the mouse to push against the manhole cover more and more weakly until it disappeared. In the pipe gallery below, the rat's cry also began to weaken.

After the noise disappeared, the sound of something moving through the soil gradually became clear in Xie Liuyi's ears.

"Disperse!" Her face changed greatly, her voice was sharp, she raised her feet and kicked Qin Siyuan and Scarhead out, picked up Ouyang Zhe and quickly left the place.

The fat body of the mouse shriveled down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a skinny appearance. It was discarded by the roots and fell on the ruins from a height of more than ten meters.

Because of Xie Liuyi's reminder, the players escaped the impact of the tree roots breaking out of the ground. However, after sucking the rat dry, the roots attack the player.

The two players who were injected with streptomycin yesterday were the first to be recruited. Because of the sequelae, their hearing and vision were weakened and their movements were slow.

A player was directly stabbed by the roots, and after struggling twice, he stopped moving. The other one seemed to have used a prop, and a golden protective shield appeared on his body. The roots failed to pierce his body, so he simply rolled him up and dragged him towards the hole in the ground.

Xie Liuyi dodged the tree root that stabbed at him, and jumped beside the player who was pierced by the roots, holding the root of the tree, exerting force with both hands, and twisting a towel directly to the root of the tree Twist and break it, tear off the roots that have pierced into the player, pick up the person and run away.

"Bell Tower." She reminded loudly. The players immediately changed direction and ran towards the clock tower.

At this moment, the player who uses the long weapon obviously has an advantage over the tree root, the player who is carrying the scar head of the Pu Dao, the player who uses the hoe, and the one who is carrying the nine-ringed broadsword in the back .

Running out of the attack range of the root of the tree, Xie Liuyi noticed that someone had slowed down, and seemed to feel safe, and even stood there and wanted to look back.

Xie Liuyi went straight up and kicked the man's ass, kicked him forward and flew out, before raising his voice, "Don't stop."

Xie Liuyi burst into a foul language, fearing that the whole city was covered with such things.

Fortunately, everyone is a gold-level player. After her reminder, if you are ready, you will not be wiped out by the roots. Depending on their means, they rushed through the gate of the clock tower dangerously and dangerously.

The tree roots did not chase into the clock tower, the players breathed a sigh of relief.

Except Xie Liuyi, everyone else was injured more or less, the most serious was the player who was carried in by Xie Liuyi. When Xie Liuyi was carrying him, he felt that his hand was wrong. Most of it was flesh and blood, wrapped in human skin, like an inflatable doll filled with water.

Ouyang Zhe poured him three bottles of red medicine in one breath, only to be considered as hanging his life.

"This kind of injury can only be returned to the player's space and treated at the medical center." Ouyang Zhe was paralyzed on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Miss Xie," Qin Siyuan sat on the ground leaning against the wall, "this is the second time you have saved my life, from now on, I Qin Siyuan will only follow your lead, you let me go east , I will never go west, even if you kill me, if I frown, I am not a man."

Come.

Scarhead followed him to show his loyalty, but after thinking about it for a long time, he only said, "Me too."

The survivors expressed their gratitude to Xie Liuyi. If it wasn't for Xie Liuyi this time, few of them would have survived.

Xie Liuyi ignored the players' words. She stood at the door of the clock tower and looked at the tree roots that covered the sky and danced with claws outside, frowning in thought.

Qin Siyuan gasped and got up, walked behind her, and followed her line of sight, "Do you want to kill today's boss?"

"Well." Xie Liuyi stared at the root of the tree.

“These tree roots can’t be killed by cutting one root down to ten.” Scarhead interrupted when he heard their conversation.

Xie Liuyi knew that it was useless to cut off the roots of a tree. What she thought was that something with such a developed root system should not be too small. Where exactly is its body?

"Isn't it worth it?" Ouyang Zhe also advised, "Tomorrow, we will be able to issue a copy. We will spend one night in the clock tower tonight, and we can go back directly tomorrow."

Xie Liuyi looked back at him, feeling more and more stupid. He clearly has a romantic and affectionate fox face, how can he be so stupid.

"Why do you see me like this?" Ouyang Zhe asked.

Xie Liuyi rolled his eyes calmly and ignored him.

"Mr. Ouyang is really naive and optimistic," Qin Siyuan said yin and yang, "Today we put in a BOSS that forced us into the clock tower, and tomorrow we will open the exit in front of us, huh, do you think the game Charity?"

"Qin Siyuan, you..." Ouyang Zhe got up angrily, "Do you really think I can't think of it? I just don't want Xiao Xie to take risks. Her life is more important than anything else."

"

"Swept away?" Xie Liuyi's eyes lit up, why didn't she expect it!

She turned her head and smiled at Ouyang Zhe, and told everyone, "Don't get in the way."

Then strode out of the clock tower and closed the door of the clock tower.

The overwhelming tree roots were like a giant python that sensed its prey, and at the same time aimed its roots at Xie Liuyi.
