Survival for all: I, the creator of the halo

The elf girl just looked at her quietly and said nothing.

The woman looked at Ning Ze on the hospital bed and made a "tsk, tsk" sound in her mouth. When her eyes met the elf woman's, she was immediately stared at and her hair stood on end.

"No, you don't really want me to fish him out, do you?" The woman widened her eyes and shouted in disbelief, but the elf girl still stared at her silently.

In the end, under the confrontation between the two people's eyes, the woman was completely defeated and could only lament: "Forget it, I really admire you, but it's just this once, and we will be completely even after that."

The woman chose to compromise, and the little girl on the side looked at this scene curiously with round eyes, looking a little confused.

On the other side, Ning Ze, through the exploration of snake perception, had roughly mapped out an area of ​​several kilometers.

Nowadays, his panel is no longer what it used to be. Even if the personality puppet can only inherit half of his attributes, the snake perception can still cover a good radius.

What's more, this skill has been strengthened in the previous stage breakthrough, the area covered has been directly increased by 50%, and the information that can be detected is more comprehensive.

However, after this period of time, Ning Ze still found nothing. The surrounding area seemed to be just an ordinary forest with nothing special about it.

However, at this moment, a strange fluctuation suddenly appeared within the detection range of snake perception. If he hadn't stopped to take a rest at this time, he might not have been able to detect this subtle change.

After sensing it more carefully, Ning Ze discovered that this fluctuation did not come from the actual object, because the snake sense was like opening his eyes to the sky. As long as it is something that can be seen with the eyes, the snake sense can naturally distinguish it. come out.

This fluctuation cannot be "seen" at all. According to the information feedback sensed, it is more like an energy body.

Out of curiosity, Ning Ze decided to go and find out.

After walking a distance of more than two hundred meters in one direction, he finally arrived at the target location, but the scene before him suddenly made his scalp feel numb.

"This is...that scout team?"

Ning Ze stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes, and saw a few looming figures walking slowly among the trees.

And now he had a very strange feeling. His eyes told him that he could not see these figures, but his mind took the initiative to draw this scene.

If you want to describe this situation more vividly, it is probably like a considerable delay when playing a game. Except for those figures, there is a confusing sense of delay between the scene seen by the eyes and the scene displayed in the mind. , which makes people feel a little disgusting.

However, the appearance of the "scout team" aroused Ning Ze's curiosity, because in his opinion, it was a certainty that the scout team would die in battle, and then it appeared here again, which was really weird.

"But it looks like they are going somewhere, and they didn't notice my presence. How about following me and checking out the situation?"

After making up his mind, Ning Ze decided to follow this "scout team" first.

According to his observation, the current state of this "scout team" is very inconsistent with common sense. Although several people seem to be moving around, they appear lifeless, like puppets on strings. Leading forward.

In order not to alert others, Ning Ze carefully concealed his figure along the way. Although his intuition told him that even if he was exposed to this "scout team", nothing bad would happen, but he still had to be careful. Good.

After probably following this "scout team" for hundreds of meters in one direction, the situation finally changed.

I saw a few people walking to a relatively empty location and then stopped. The next second, a scene that looked like a ghost happened.

The figures of the scout team suddenly began to sink to the ground. In just a few seconds, the entire scout team completely disappeared in this empty scene.

"Hi~ What the hell is this?"

Ning Ze was shocked and confused. Since he was far away, he couldn't see the detailed situation, but his eyesight was still quite good. He did see several members of the scout team sinking into the ground little by little.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should continue to hold back and observe, or turn around and leave.

However, after a brief thought, Ning Ze gritted his teeth and walked towards the location where the scout team disappeared.

After arriving at the destination, what he saw in front of him was indeed a slightly wide open space. Based on the touch under his feet, he could confirm that this land was made of dirt and gravel. It was impossible for ordinary people to drill down. Unless you can escape.

He came to the place where the previous scout team disappeared. It still looked like an ordinary piece of dirt, but when he picked up a stone and threw it towards this piece of land, a magical scene appeared.

I saw that the stone drilled directly into the surface unobstructed, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Could it be that this piece of land is just a cover-up?"

Ning Ze then tried throwing other items, but the final result was the same. Seeing this, he basically understood.

No wonder the previous "scout team" was able to sink into the ground. It was just that this piece of land seemed to have no path, but in fact there was a mystery hidden underneath.

After some testing, Ning Ze finally determined that most of the open space was made of real dirt, with only a small area of ​​about three square meters being unusual.

After thinking carefully, Ning Ze tried to move his feet over. Sure enough, the bony toes sank into the ground unobstructed. After descending for about 20 centimeters, the toes came into contact with something hard again.

"It seems that the bottom of the earth is not the bottomless pit I thought before. There seems to be a ladder connected to it."

After some testing, Ning Ze confirmed that there was indeed a staircase hidden under the surface. Then he no longer had any worries and walked into this area with his whole body.

The skeleton's body is constantly descending, without any discomfort during the process. Of course, this may also be because he is just a personality puppet here, so he cannot sense some subtle feelings.

But this also made him gradually relax!

"It seems like it's just an ordinary hole down here!?! 0"

As Ning Ze's head gradually sank into the ground, his vision changed in an instant, and he saw himself appearing in a desolate cave.

To be precise, it was more like a tunnel, extending into the distance.

At the same time, he also carefully sensed it, and there was no sense of crisis. It seemed to be safe for the time being.

But then, he turned on his snake sense and detected the "scout team" that had disappeared before.

"You haven't gone far yet, keep following up and have a look."

Ning Ze didn't have time to think too much. He used his snake sense to sense it. The terrain below was complicated and the tunnels were intricate. If he explored by himself, he would probably get lost in it.

And that scout team has gone a long way, and is about to exceed the maximum range that snake sense can detect. If they lose track of them, they may not be able to follow them.

Fortunately, this section of the tunnel was not too complicated, and Ning Ze figured out the correct path with just a little effort.

In the following time, he has been following this scout team. Originally, he thought that it would not be long before he could reach the place where this scout team was going.

But after walking a long distance, this scout team was in the midst of endless operations, during which they did not know how many turns they turned and how many tunnels they walked through.

He could no longer calculate how far he had followed this scout team. It felt like he had walked a long way, and the speed of this scout team was not very fast. It could even be said that Slow down.

Ning Ze, who had been following them for a while, couldn't hold back his temper anymore. He wished he could rush up, hang up the scouts and beat them up, and then make them go faster.

However, Ning Ze soon discovered something was wrong. His body began to become unstable, and he became a little wobbly when walking.

When he lowered his head and glanced down, he immediately discovered that only half of one of his feet was left. The front sole was missing, while the other sole looked intact, but after careful inspection, he discovered that there were two The soles of the feet have become very thin.

It's like half of the thickness has been worn away!

Ning Ze suddenly took a breath of air when he saw this scene.

What the hell is going on?

He quickly lifted up the soles of his feet and observed them carefully. Finally, he found that the soles of his feet were worn to varying degrees. The sole of his right foot was even directly worn through, leaving only the back half of the sole. No wonder he felt numb when walking just now. Walking crookedly and unsteadily.

"It seems like the soles of the feet were worn away from walking too much, but is this really possible?"

Ning Ze thought deeply, and suddenly realized that he couldn't remember how long he had walked. The pocket watch was on his body, and he couldn't see the time. To know the time, he had to rely on himself to figure out everything.

He just remembered that he should have followed this scout team for a long, long way, but speaking from common sense, if you want to wear out the soles of your feet by walking, you may not be able to do it even if you walk a thousand kilometers.

Sure enough, when he looked at the soles of the scout team's feet, he also saw that the shoes they wore were already in tatters. Some people even had only a ring of shoe collars left on the soles of their feet, and the soles of their feet were also visible. A dense mass of bones.

This situation is too weird. If conditions permit, Ning Ze would not want to stay here any longer. However, due to some special circumstances, he can only choose to continue to follow this scout team.

Just because of the wear and tear on the soles of his feet, he had to walk more carefully to minimize the wear and tear on the soles of his feet.

Maybe God took pity on Ning Ze's feet. After continuing to follow him for a while, the situation finally changed.

In the tunnels they passed, some other entities gradually appeared. For example, at this moment, Ning Ze saw several figures walking slowly in another tunnel.

After walking forward for some distance, some animals appeared in the tunnel.

Gradually, more and more people appeared in the entire tunnel. As they went deeper and deeper, the originally spacious tunnel gradually became crowded.

However, after Ningze observed it, he found that the footsteps of these beings were worn to varying degrees. He even saw a deer whose limbs had been worn down to only its thighs, and a deer that was still feeling nothing. Go down.

The situation became increasingly weird, and Ning Ze also began to pay attention to everything around him.

After an unknown amount of time passed, they came to an even narrower tunnel, and Ning Ze also blended in, walking forward slowly, almost shoulder to shoulder with other people, animals, and unknown creatures.

Fortunately, this narrow tunnel was not too long, probably only a few kilometers long. After he walked out of this tunnel, the scene in front of him suddenly became wider.

What was connected to the other end of the narrow tunnel was a huge underground space, but it was very different from the underground spaces he had seen before.

There is flowing magma everywhere here, and the entire underground space appears bright even without any lighting.

In addition, this place does not seem to be naturally formed, because the entire space is in the shape of a cylinder, with nothing in the middle, and the surrounding cave walls are a road spiraling downwards.

The magma flows down the walls of these caves, but it does not drip into the corridors. If you look down, there is only pitch black, like an invincible abyss. Just looking at it feels like it is about to be swallowed up. generally.

"The magma will eventually gather at the bottom of this cave, but when you look down, you can't see the light of the magma, which means there is still a lot of depth below."

Ning Ze took a look at the situation of the entire cave. If he followed this spiral corridor, he didn't know how long it would take to reach the bottom. And in those corridors, he saw a lot of shadows moving slowly, and there were so many shadows. Almost filling the entire aisle.

It was definitely impossible to squeeze in and overtake directly. He happened to see that there seemed to be no one watching here. Instead of walking endlessly like this, it was better to jump down layer by layer along the cave wall.

He roughly calculated that the height of the aisle on the upper floor from the aisle on the lower floor was basically within ten meters. With his current physical fitness, he could complete such a move. (End of chapter)
