Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month
Chapter 313: Rumblings from the Underground (please follow up)
"call?"
Chen Ye couldn't help but lean back slightly, and fell into deep thought after hearing this description of "Nine-tailed Fox".
The voice must have come from the bloody apartment.
As a "Nine-Tailed Fox", the profession of [Wind Recorder] requires fast memory and transcription, which is related to books. Although in terms of mental strength, it cannot be compared with Chen Ye's level of spirituality, in terms of five senses, it is still better. Regular professions have been strengthened to a certain extent.
In this case, the approximate location and distance of the sound can be distinguished more clearly.
It only took a little judgment to determine that the sound still came from the Bloody Apartment and not elsewhere.
But... other players living in the apartment did not hear the sound of the "nine-tailed fox".
Including Xiao Ling, who is closest to her...
Also consult other players who also live in the Bloody Apartment...
No similar sounds were heard.
In other words, this voice is specifically for the "nine-tailed fox"?
"Summoning... this wording is quite subtle!" Chen Ye's eyes became a little deeper.
Generally speaking, only characteristics that are strongly attractive to oneself will have a summoning effect.
Could it be that……
That thing from the underground of the Bloody Apartment has some extraordinary properties. Can it be of great help to the "nine-tailed fox"?
However, there are no stairs that can be walked down in the Bloody Apartment. The only passage that can go down seems to be an abandoned elevator...
underground……
Is it possible that it corresponds to a lightless place?
Chen Ye's mind moved and he immediately opened the [Wanderer Map].
He has now explored the underground world several times and has a certain understanding of the maze-like environment.
Comparing the location of Nanyang Road with the entrance to the underground world, it is easy to find the corresponding location underground.
"A red lightless land?" Chen Ye's eyes condensed and suddenly became a little deeper.
Judging from the map, the underground of the Bloody Apartment corresponds to a lightless land.
It still shows red!
It means there is probably some kind of danger inside!
Combining various factors, you can feel something strange.
as well as……
This matter is definitely not that simple!
You must know that a faint blood mist has appeared around the luck halos of Xiaoling and Nine-tailed Fox.
This means danger is coming.
It's just...it's not that obvious yet.
The "nine-tailed fox" has a special sense of the existence of crisis, so it feels strange.
This is actually a good thing for them!
At least he can predict the coming danger...
Chen Ye tapped his fingertips and deduced it in his mind for a moment, then looked up at the "nine-tailed fox" and said in a deep voice:
"Based on your description, I surmise that there is a copy beneath the bloody apartment where you live."
"Copy?"
As soon as these words came out, both the Nine-tailed Fox and Xiaoling couldn't help showing surprise on their faces.
"Moreover, this dungeon is very likely to have a characteristic item that will greatly improve you, enough to help you advance to the third level. It is not an ordinary third level, but an almost perfect third level." Chen Ye said in a more thoughtful tone. A bit playful.
"The most perfect third turn..." Nine-tailed fox chewed on Chen Ye's words over and over again, and suddenly had the urge to return to the Bloody Apartment again to conquer this dungeon and obtain the characteristic items needed to advance to the most perfect third turn...
However, she quickly reacted——
"No! Such a copy... there is definitely a huge danger. If you rush past it, you will only give it away!"
After reacting, the nine-tailed fox shuddered suddenly and suddenly felt a lingering fear.
She took a deep breath and murmured:
"It's really weird... every time I mention that place, I subconsciously want to go there, as if I am automatically attracted."
Chen Ye pondered for a moment and thought of a lot of information in his mind.
The reason why the "nine-tailed fox" was attracted to her was, not surprisingly, because of this characteristic, which put her in great need.
But equally, there might be something about her that that thing needs.
therefore……
Only those in the same sequence will attract each other if they have parts of their body that each have their own needs.
Perhaps this can also be called the "law of attraction of higher-order characteristics"?
After all, as the characteristics reach higher, its advanced items become increasingly rare.
After contacting the level of 'divine authority', the corresponding characteristics become unique.
If you want to obtain such "scarce" and "unique" items, it seems that you can only become a robber and snatch it from the opponent's hand.
But the existence dormant under the bloody apartment must be more cautious and careful.
Therefore, it chose to summon the "nine-tailed fox" in the form of summons, just like weaving a spider web, waiting for the prey to be brought into its mouth.
"Then as long as I don't take the initiative to go there, can I avoid the danger?"
The nine-tailed fox asked seriously and seriously.
"Not necessarily." Chen Ye chuckled softly, "Do you think...that thing can make you lose part of your rational judgment just by virtue of its attraction? Even if it is far away, it can have an impact on you. How simple can it be? Does it exist?"
Hearing this, the nine-tailed fox was stunned and realized this.
Generally speaking, the scope of influence that characteristics can have is conditionally limited.
Space, distance...
This is the most intuitive physical limitation.
Generally, only relatively powerful characteristics can span a long distance and cause an impact.
In order to avoid the bloody apartment, the nine-tailed fox once hid in the 'Fire Sun Church' a thousand meters away, and paid a silver coin in exchange for the right to rest in the common room for a day.
But even so, there were faint murmurs echoing in her ears at night, keeping her awake all night.
There was no other way... the nine-tailed fox had no choice but to return to the bloody apartment again, and asked Xiaoling to use her special abilities to help her sleep better.
This solved the insomnia problem.
But over the past few days, the nine-tailed fox's spirit was obviously a little more haggard than before.
This kind of psychological pressure and burden cannot be alleviated by adequate sleep.
Obviously, the sound coming from the underground of the Bloody Apartment may quietly corrode the consciousness of the "nine-tailed fox".
Maybe one day, she will lose control of herself and take the initiative to enter the underground of the bloody apartment.
"Then what should I do now?"
The nine-tailed fox's face turned a little pale.
Obviously, judging from Chen Ye's expression, this matter may not be as simple as imagined.
Xiaoling on the side also showed concern for the safety of his friends.
"Don't worry."
Chen Ye smiled and said:
"You can think about it from another angle..."
"Since that thing is dormant underground, maybe the apartment you live in is closely related to that thing."
"However, the apartment you live in now is not dangerous for the time being. It is just limited to certain rules. If you cannot violate the taboo rules, you can survive."
"It means that the danger level of that thing is not that high, or in other words, it is still sleeping."
"The fact that it chose to hide and use less aggressive tactics probably means that this thing got into some kind of trouble or entered a state similar to hibernation."
Hearing this, the nine-tailed fox's expression softened slightly.
According to what Chen Ye said...it shouldn't bring too much danger to him in the short term.
But soon, Chen Ye added:
"But...if this thing needs to be revived, it probably needs to meet certain conditions."
"You should know that in the world of the Strange Era, there are usually some ancient and powerful beings who fell into a deep sleep due to some accidents."
"When their power recovers, if they want to fully wake up, they need a blood sacrifice ceremony to restore their power."
The expressions of the Nine-tailed Fox and Xiaoling both changed:
"You mean... the apartment we live in is probably the ceremony arranged by that guy?"
"It is possible, but it cannot be determined out of thin air." Chen Ye said, "I can go to your area, arrive at the scene in person, make judgments, and see what is there."
The nine-tailed fox suddenly became happy and asked quickly: "Are you willing to help me with this?"
Chen Ye smiled and said, "You don't have to think that I'm trying to help you."
"I'm more interested in copies. I didn't expect that there is such an interesting thing hidden under the apartment where you live. Of course, I have to find out what it is."
"If some ritual is really brewing, once this existence absorbs huge power and recovers, the unlucky people will not be limited to your apartment, but the entire paradise will probably suffer."
"This is how the last large public copy appeared."
"I have opened a lot of shops in the park. I need to make money this month. Naturally, I cannot allow this dangerous cancer that may affect my income to develop quietly."
"At that time, not only will all players be harmed, but even my business will not be able to continue."
Of course... there is one thing Chen Ye didn't say, and that was about the collapse of Yong'an Market.
To a certain extent, the Bloody Apartment and Yongan Market are both activity venues for the aborigines of Destiny City. The former is a residence for ordinary citizens, and the latter is a source of daily necessities.
In terms of the current environment, most of the more powerful aboriginal families have already moved away.
This actually has a benefit for players - after the powerful forces withdraw, the number of aboriginals above level three decreases sharply, and the danger is not that great.
Therefore, the area surrounding the paradise is now considered a more suitable novice village for development, and will not encounter too powerful aborigines.
Of course... this situation may not be completely stable. After all, Chen Ye didn't completely kill the stuff that polluted Xijiang last time.
They flowed into the Sea of Death, and similar signs of activity can be seen in the City of Destiny. They may also merge with other characteristics to gain more complex and powerful power. Compared with pure pollution, they are more difficult to deal with. It also became taller.
Now, Chen Ye is more curious about where the aborigines living in the surrounding areas have gone, except for the part that flows into the paradise.
In such a large area, there are not as many traces of Aboriginal activities as expected.
The closure of Yongan Market may also have a huge relationship with the disappearance of this part of the passenger flow.
So.
Chen Ye was a little curious, where did all this traffic go?
The Bloody Apartment and Yongan Market are similar places, both of which can gather some aborigines.
Therefore, you might be able to discover some valuable information by going there.
"Great... um... can I ask, when can we leave?"
When the nine-tailed fox heard that Chen Ye was willing to help, the joy in his heart could not be suppressed and overflowed on his face.
From the conversation of this mysterious boss, you can tell that he is definitely an experienced player.
He has extensive experience in dealing with this weirdness.
If the other party is willing to help, it is likely to be of key help in solving his own problems.
In the past few days, the nine-tailed fox has been troubled by the nightmarish murmurs...
I always feel as if there is a knife behind my back, pressed against my heart, and could be stabbed in at any time.
It's not a pleasant feeling...
It can be comforting for a day or two, but if it continues for a long time, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but go crazy!
Chen Ye smiled and said, "I don't have any plans today, so let's leave now."
…………
After leaving the bustling pedestrian street, the surroundings suddenly became deserted.
The streets are deserted.
Originally, when Chen Ye first arrived at Longhua Avenue, he could still see the figure of [Glutton] passing by on the bridge.
But now, this group of [Gluttonians] has also disappeared, without even a single figure.
Except for the "underground world" and "paradise", it is difficult to see traces of activity in other areas.
Even the group of wanderers who went to the "Fire Sun Church" to pray are now gone.
A large part of them were lured to Xijiang by Chen Ye with his suona and became a work-for-relief labor force, delivering a lot of blood to the "Manufacturing Association".
According to the recent news from there, the daily dividend income from the shares held by Chen Ye has reached 10,000 copper coins.
And, with the recent surge in homelessness, earnings are likely to triple within a week!
If that's the case, just counting the income from restaurants and dividends, Chen Ye would be able to earn more than 100,000 copper coins a day!
I have caught up with Hua Shao and Shenli Yinghua, one third of the way.
But it is almost on par with Dark Night, which is currently third on the list...
In this way, Chen Ye already has the basic capital to compete with the three giants on this month's list.
The rest depends on the additional asset income and who can show more trump cards.
Chen Ye's plan for the next book is to explore some copies to see if he can get more opportunities.
This was one of the reasons why he agreed to the nine-tailed fox...
At this moment, he was standing downstairs in the Bloody Apartment, surrounded by a deserted business district.
Most of the shops downstairs collapsed.
There were only a few scattered figures, flashing quickly from the shadowed corners, as if they didn't want to see more people.
Chen Ye opened the Eyes of Luck and looked under the bloody apartment, his eyes suddenly moved...
He saw a sign of bad luck!
