"The habits of gray forest rats, Merlin, you can answer." The zoology teacher was a woman, wearing a faded light blue dress, and her sleek face and vertical and horizontal wrinkles made her look a little mean.

She actually gives the impression of being serious and kind to her students. In the context of this drastic change in the environment, and the townspeople are constantly being captured by evil spirits, she is the only teacher who is still teaching seriously.

The player who was called got up hesitantly and replied, "I...... Grey Timber Rat......"

The black line above his head was slightly condensed.

The teacher waved his hand unmindfully: "Don't be nervous, sit down." ”

Meng Yan breathed a sigh of relief and sat down with everyone watching.

As soon as she sat down, she was near the door, and suddenly felt a breeze blow into the classroom, with a little dampness.

"Is it raining......?"

He muttered, consciousness returning to some copy of a month ago.

The dungeon environment is similar to the Overworld, and the mission is to escape from the ghost village. At that time, he found a piece of parchment in the stomach of a certain ghoul with handwriting on it.

The scribbled words are full of despair and fear.

[That rain brought everything]

……

At this moment.

Mu Su and his little friend Sakura walked in the town of Wanghaijiao.

The long street is narrow, lined with slab houses of varying heights, and residents come and go to pack up their clothes hanging by the doors.

The potholed dirt road was uneven, and the road was dull, and there was little sound of speech, and the people who passed by were dressed in linen and coarse cloth, and their eyes were empty and tired, only lifeless.

In the twenty years or so since the evil spirit struck, the long ordeal may have caused them to give up their struggle. Maybe there was only some laughter in the schoolhouse on the dirt slope.

The children are still young.

In fact, it's more than that. Today's Wanghaijiao has no mayor, no laws, and no rules. People struggle to make ends meet, and the only thing that connects them is human identity.

The Cape itself is chaotic and chaotic, and it is possible that even all human settlements are today.

But in any case, the fact that they are still alive shows that they have not given up hope. The residents of Cape Wanghai organized a group of their own initiative, and they abandoned a piece of houses on the edge of Cape Wanghai, leaving the remaining residents to gather on the side of the sea to expel the degenerate inhabitants, erect wooden walls around the perimeter, fortify wooden houses, and store grease and food.

They may not be able to fight the invading spirits, but they can persevere.

Turning east and west, Mu Su probed into the residence of the evil boss and came to the door to say that he was his classmate and wanted to see him again.

The father naturally didn't expect that the boy in front of him wanted to steal his son's body to summon the evil god, and frankly told Mu Su the location of the corpse.

Looking at the mortuary in the gray forest south of Cape.

All dead residents will be sent there.

"So according to the story, there are a lot of ghouls in there who haven't run away."

On the way to the Gray Forest, Mu Su muttered to himself.

Yinghua tilted her head and thought for a while, "No, the NPC only said that there were spirits everywhere, not that there were entities." ”

"Aren't fallen inhabitants understood as ghouls?" Mu Su is strong in his words, and he will not admit his problems to death.

"Do they eat corpses...... Evil. Sakura looked disgusted.

The wooden-walled gate came out, and a series of abandoned houses came into view.

The front is more desolate and lifeless than what is behind it.

The more prosperous the place, the more it can bring endless fear of oppression. For example, playgrounds, schools, dead buildings.

Cloaked in oilcloth and drizzling in the drizzle, the two walked down the muddy streets, leaving footprints on the softening ground.

A few minutes later, the two walked to the middle of the town.

"I don't feel right." Yinghua suddenly lowered her voice and approached Mu Su, holding the wooden stick she picked up on the side of the road in her hand.

"Don't be afraid, just think of it as your back garden." Mu Su walked in front with a swagger without fear, his expression was wide.

It's like visiting your own back garden.

Hearing this, Sakura turned her head strangely, a pair of barefoot footprints following them as they walked out of the wooden wall.

Sakura felt that there was some reason, so she threw away the stick.

……

The gray forest, one or two miles away from Wanghaijiao, is named because of the dark gray wood of the wood.

Today's gray forests live up to their name, the woods have long since withered and withered, dead and silent, and lifeless.

The two of them walked along a path that had been trampled out, and the woods were quiet.

Yinghua followed behind Mu Su, and Fang entered the gray forest, and she turned her head curiously with the oilcloth on her head. The footprints stopped at the edge of the ash forest, and did not follow.

It's a pity that Mu Su doesn't know anything about this, otherwise he would definitely pull the other party's collar and ask why he followed him.

The mortuary is not hard to find. After going deep into the gray forest along the trail for more than ten minutes, Makisu and Sakura arrived at the foot of the mountain.

A hazy deep cave in the rain curtain is presented in front of the two and the audience.

The edge rocks are drenched in a layer of rainwater and have a smooth color. The two entered the cave, and Sakura put down the tarpaulin and picked up the torches and flints piled up in the corner.

Mu Su drilled into the cave with all his heart.

The spark appeared, the torch was lit, and the flame dispelled the chill and darkness that enveloped the body.

Sakura follows Makisu and goes deep into the cave where the temperature gradually decreases.

The cave was empty, and occasionally there were some debris in the corner. However, after going deeper than ten meters, the simple wooden platform appeared on both sides of the cave.

The wooden platform stretched out into the depths where the light was not shining, and there was a corpse lying flat on the wooden platform.

Not the corpse of an evil boss.

In the flickering firelight, the two of them moved forward, past the woman's body. The moment the firelight was blocked by the figure, those eyes opened a gap.

"Huh......?"

Mu Su turned his head if he noticed it.

Sakura Shunyuki looked at it, and nodded affirmatively when he saw the half-open cloudy eyes: "The eyes were closed before. ”

Mu Su stepped back and tentatively raised his hand to brush the woman's face.

The eyelids were reset, and they were obviously closed, but when Mu Su removed his palm, the eyes were still open.

Mu Su didn't believe in evil and reached out to close it again, took away his hand, his eyes opened, and this time his eyes turned to Mu Su.

Angry, Mu Su ran to the entrance of the cave to pick up an iron axe, and ran menacingly, only to see those eyes closed.

"Tsk......"

The other party's wit made Mu Su a little unhappy, and he cut the wooden platform a few times to scare the other party.

The two of them continued to move forward, but soon walked through the cave dozens of meters deep. At the end, the hole narrowed, and the deeper could only accommodate one person crawling forward.

They have to face the fact that the body of the evil boss is gone.

To return empty-handed, Mu Su was a little unwilling.

"Why don't you bring that female corpse back?" Sakura proposed.

"I'm still a child, and it's hard for me to drag a corpse." The successive defeats made Mu Su more and more unhappy.

"Let's go back to the school building and see, if anyone offends me, they will die and sacrifice."

The situation was quickly spread through the players' live broadcast room.

According to word of mouth, the participating players were wary of Mu Su. Although they are all contestants, they can actually ...... Musu should be in the hostile camp.
