non-human player

Chapter 16 Regular Tasks
Actually triggered the task.

Lu Yao's expression changed, and he stopped.

First, he glanced carefully at the task name, Territory Contest.

Is there a tiger in the mountains for this task?

But this idea just passed in his mind for a while, and then was thrown away by Lu Yao.

If there are tigers around here, it is impossible for the surrounding zoos not to know

So it can only be some other animal?
There are mass graves on the mountain, wild animals active in this area, bears?Or is it a wolf?
Lu Yao thought about it, but also thought it was impossible.

It's just a mountain away from him, he should be able to hear him roaring a few times in the park.

So it can only be a ghost!

Really ghost?

Lu Yao was a little excited, but he also knew that now is not a good time to do the task.

So he walked a few steps forward, under a big tree next to the mountain path, Lu Yao stretched out his claws, planed on the trunk, made a mark, then turned around and came to Xiao Qing's side again.

"Agreed to go back?"

Seeing Fat Tiger go and return, she was a little surprised.

She was bored in the zoo all the time, and she was worried that Fat Tiger would only want to go back if he went crazy playing in the wild, and she even made a plan that Fat Tiger didn't plan to go back.

I didn't expect Fat Tiger to be so obedient, he just yelled and came back.

Sure enough, even the tiger would feel tired after wandering around in the mountains all the time.

"Good boy, let's go home then."

Xiao Qing was very happy, clapped her hands and went back home the same way.

After sending Fat Hu to the outskirts of the park all the way, and seeing Fat Tiger crawling back along the barbed wire, she turned and left satisfied.

That's the end of a good day.

Not long after Xiaoqing left, Lu Yao emerged from the darkness, sniffed the air, and after confirming that Xiaoqing had left, he looked at the barbed wire and climbed out again.

Next, we went to the mass graves.

He walked through the jungle and crossed the creek with ease, and it didn't take long for Lu Yao to appear on the stone bridge under the mass grave hill again.

He raised his head and glanced at the dark mountain. Not to mention, when the task was triggered, Lu Yao really felt that this mountain was different from the two mountains in his park.

Quiet, too quiet.

Although there are no other animals in the park because of his presence, there are still some birds, bugs and the like.

It was okay during the day, but all kinds of calls kept ringing at night.

And the mass grave in front of him was extremely quiet, as if there were no creatures living in it at all.

With a movement of his body, Lu Yao found the mark he had made before, and started to enter the mountain along the mountain road.

Not long after, his body disappeared into the forest.

The soles of the feet step on the dead leaves and branches, making a "creaking" sound, which can be clearly heard in the silent mountain forest.

After walking a few steps, Lu Yao paused and stopped.

Lowering his head, under the faint moonlight, Lu Yao could see that he was stepping on a smooth stone slab.

Not slate.

The claws were pulled out on the stone slab, the soil faded away, and a half-remained tombstone appeared in Lu Yao's eyes.

"The Tomb of Qingci"

Due to the weathering for too long, Lu Yao can only roughly see these few words, and the other words are already blurred.

He raised his head and looked at the surrounding environment, and soon, Lu Yao found another tombstone from a pile of weeds.

And this tombstone should be longer, because Lu Yao didn't recognize many characters on it.

It's really a mass grave.

Not long after I entered, I saw two tombstones. Unlucky, I don't know how many more there will be inside.

Lu Yao took a few glances, then quickly lost interest, turned around and headed towards the mountains again.

When he came to the middle of the mountain, Lu Yao stopped again.

This time, what appeared in front of my eyes was a piece of ruins. Several old tile-roofed houses were leaning against the roadside. Most of the roofs disappeared, leaving only a piece of cross-bar hanging in the center of the tile-roofed houses.

On the other side of the tile-roofed houses, several cement houses lined up, the windows and doors disappeared, and a gust of wind blew by, making a few mineral water bottles rattle.

After a few close glances, there was a rotten smell, Lu Yao frowned, turned around and left.

This place is too dirty, so don't go in there.

After walking around the ruins for a few times, Lu Yao had no clues except for a large pile of rubbish.

No ghosts?What kind of beast is it?
That's not right, any beast must leave a scent, this is their instinct.

But there is nothing here.

With doubts, Lu Yao went deep into the mountains again.

I don't know how long he walked in the mountains, but Lu Yao was a little tired. He came to a cliff and stopped.

The whole mountain was unbelievably quiet and completely abnormal, but the problem was that even if Lu Yao knew it was abnormal, he didn't know where to start.

Do you still let me play puzzles with a tiger?
Taking a breath, Lu Yao calmed down the panting after running.

"Call out loud when something happens?"

"Since the task is a territorial dispute, I even ran to the door, and called out the boss here?"

Thinking about it this way, Lu Yao felt that this operation was worth trying.

After all, he is a tiger. According to the descriptions of those players in the forum, the tasks of non-human players are usually extremely simple, and basically there will be no plots that require brains.

Before the wisdom reaches the standard, it is impossible to let non-human players do some puzzle-solving tasks, right?

Thinking of this, Lu Yao stood up, pumped his chest, and roared towards the moon hanging in the sky.

"Roar!"

The roar sounded, piercing through the forest.

Just when Lu Yao felt that it was not enough and planned to continue shouting twice, a sudden change occurred.

"Ow!"

On the top of the mountain, a roar that was not inferior to him suddenly sounded.

The penetrating power is not as good as that of Lu Yao, but the voice is sharper and longer.

Lu Yao was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately reacted.

Really yelled at you!

Although the location is still a little far away, I know where it is.

Without even thinking about it, Lu Yao stood up and rushed towards the source of the sound.

On the other side, in an unknown cave, a strange candle was hanging on the top of the cave, burning forever.

The walls around the cave are covered with strange runes.The rune spread all the way, and finally turned into a straight line, following the ground until it reached a coffin in the deepest part of the cave, and then stopped.

The coffin is dark as a whole and looks natural.

At this moment, a mighty roar of a tiger suddenly resounded, the black coffin shook for a while, and then with a "crash", the coffin lid flew off, and a figure suddenly sat up from the coffin.

The figure's face was black and blue, with a pair of fangs protruding from the corners of its mouth, like a demon.

This is a zombie, but the strange thing is that the whole body of the zombie is locked by iron chains, tightly bound like rice dumplings, with only one head exposed.

At this time, the zombie's expression was startled and angry, as if he had been disturbed from sleep, he opened his mouth wide and roared towards the sound of the tiger's roar.

Then, it began to struggle, and the iron chains tied to his body were broken by its great force. After a while, it broke free from the shackles. whole body.

Then, it jumped out of the coffin and rushed towards the entrance of the cave.
