Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?

It was a snow-white snake, which was now sticking its head out of the man's mouth. Its orange-yellow eyes were staring straight at him, with a coldness that was difficult for a snake to hide.

Chi Yu also stared at the snake silently, thinking about what it had said before.

When he first stepped onto the platform, the snake obviously wanted to control the corpse to attack him, but now it told him seriously that they were not enemies, but the same kind.

Even though he was in a snake cave that seemed extremely dangerous to ordinary people, Chi Yu, a pure human who had lived for decades, found it difficult to feel any fear. He just thought the scene was a bit absurd and funny.

Oh, no, it seems that he is indeed half a snake now, and he feels quite familiar when he sees these snakes.

But this is not a big problem. Chi Yu touched the snake jade pendant on his chest and thought, the token of proof that can control the degree of blood erosion and prevent him from completely turning into Fidelia should be hung around his neck.

It has only been five days since Chi Yu came to this world since he traveled through time. In many cases, such as the three days he spent safely, it was difficult for Chi Yu to have the real feeling that he had changed his world.

But sometimes, in the dead of night, the system would suddenly pop up a reminder that [Bloodline Corrosion Degree Increased], waking Chi Yu from his sleep, and then silently lower the value under his gaze, as if it had suddenly had a seizure.

Originally, Chi Yu was very unhappy with the system's behavior of disturbing his sleep, but as the number of times increased, Chi Yu inexplicably developed a mysterious feeling about this number, as if he could consciously control the concentration of the two bloodlines in his body.

Although Chi Yu was not quite sure about the specific effect, now was a good testing opportunity for him to give it a try.

The snake said they were not enemies, but Chi Yu didn't believe it. The white snake asked him to leave the expedition team here as a sacrifice, which was even more impossible.

Chi Yu calmed down and mobilized the power of his blood. As the degree of erosion continued to increase, his aura became stronger and stronger.

When the degree of blood erosion reaches 30%, it is the first critical point. His eyes will be the first to show signs of alienation and be transformed into snake pupils. This is the information Chi Yu obtained from previous experiments.

Chi Yu stopped ascending and tried to issue an order to let the snakes leave.

The snakes sensed the change in Chi Yu's breath and seemed a little restless, but they still stayed in the same place and were unwilling to leave.

It seems that is not enough.

Chi Yu relaxed the restrictions and continued to improve the side of him that belonged to Fidelia.

Until the value rose to 50%, Chi Yu seemed to hear a soft hum, and a momentary illusion flashed before his eyes. In the clouds and mist, a giant snake with azure flames wrapped all over its body was looming.

The giant snake revealed its head from the clouds and inadvertently made eye contact with Chi Yu, and then the illusion suddenly shattered.

When Chi Yu returned to the reality, he found that the snakes had begun to flee in all directions and scurried into the pipes. Just like they had come without any warning, the bluestone platform returned to its original emptiness almost instantly.

Only the white snake that was talking to Chi Yu was still controlling the bodyguard's body and standing there, looking at him stubbornly.

"Why, refuse. We, should, offer sacrifices to, the gods."

"Don't confuse me with you."

Chi Yu got the test results he wanted, and thought that his orders were useless to the white snake, probably because it had a host that could accommodate it, while the other snakes, as individual individuals, could not resist his power.

The white snake was obviously angered by Chi Yu's words. Its eyes suddenly showed a fierce light, and it controlled the corpse to pounce on him again.

Chi Yu was not ready to let it go. He cut the trekking pole in his hand into a knife shape and then slashed the man, cutting his body in two.

It is hard to imagine how a blunt instrument can achieve such a degree, but it seems commonplace for Chi Yu.

Having lost control of its torso, the white snake was powerless to attack even if it stayed in the head, so it gave up this stronghold, swung its tail and slipped out of the mouth, bouncing towards Chi Yu.

The white snake's behavior of flying into the air seemed very stupid to Chi Yu, but he wished he could face such stupid enemies.

Looking at the movement trajectory of the white snake, a hint of coldness emerged in Chi Yu's eyes. The next moment, the end of the trekking pole sank deeply into the bluestone slab, and the white snake was nailed to the ground by him.

The white snake let out a sharp hissing sound as its vital point was pierced. Perhaps it was because Chi Yu's blood concentration had increased too much at once that he could even understand that the white snake was insulting him fiercely in his own ethnic language.

The white snake struggled in vain, but could not break free of the shackles of the trekking pole. Chi Yu watched coldly as its blood volume continued to drop.

When its blood volume was about to drop to the lowest point, the white snake also realized that it was about to die, so it stopped moving, staring at Chi Yu with its cold snake eyes, and whispered between its tongues: "Those who disrespect the gods will surely be judged by the gods."

This is the last words the White Snake left to this world.

Chi Yu chuckled at this, and after making sure that it had turned into a dead snake, he pulled the trekking pole out of the ground and pushed the snake's corpse aside.

On the block representing the bluestone platform, the red color of the enemy attack had disappeared and turned back into a harmless white.

The record also popped up a record of Chi Yu successfully completing a battle, and he was given some extra crude red gold and seasonings as rewards.

But none of that matters right now.

Chi Yu shifted his gaze to the area below that represented the hall.

Not long after Chi Yu came up, this block suddenly turned red for some unknown reason.

At that time, Chi Yu was busy confronting the White Snake and could not pay attention to the situation below for a while. He just heard the continuous gunshots and knew that the fighting was probably quite fierce.

Chi Yu felt that his current appearance was not suitable for meeting people, so he took a deep breath and tried to calm his turbulent blood concentration. While making sure that the value was decreasing little by little, he walked to the entrance to check the situation below.

This was a shocking sight. The lowering rope was cut in the middle by an unknown sharp weapon, and countless skinless corpses pounced towards the exploration team.

The exploration team had no idea what was going on and were scattered to different corners. Due to the large number of corpses, they were unable to fight back on their own and were about to be forced into a corner with nowhere to retreat.

The more Chi Yu looked, the more his brows furrowed. He saw the bodyguards who looked disheveled, and the man in black glasses who looked at ease, but he still couldn't find Zhou Zixu's figure among them.

With a sudden bad feeling in his heart, Chi Yu quickly opened the Moyu map and carefully looked at the character icons on it.

Apart from the reddish lobby area filled with character portraits, in the obscure mist, the icon representing Zhou Zixu's unfortunate child was shining in the gray area.

Chi Yu: ...

Grass.
