Ming stood at the edge of the small town, surveying the collapsed buildings in the aftermath of the earthquake. This wasn't a replica created by game rules, but a real location.
"24 hours?" He checked the mission information. If he exceeded the time limit, he would be stuck in the replica. To return, he would have to commit suicide with a substitute puppet or let the monsters in the replica kill him. However, both options required a strong mindset.
But what if he walked out of the replica and into the mist?
Ming picked up a stone and threw it at the red light curtain behind him. The stone penetrated the curtain but disappeared as it passed through.
On the other side of the light curtain, he saw a normal road with trees and grass on both sides. However, the stone he threw had indeed disappeared. Was what he saw not real?
The mist... the mist...
He looked back at the town, deciding not to dwell on it for now. The truth would come to light one day.
He checked the requirements for a five-star clearance:
[Requirements for five-star clearance of the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" replica]
[1. Defeat the final boss of the replica within 4 hours]
[2. Kill all zombies in the replica]
"The requirements for a five-star clearance are not difficult," Ming thought.
He stood at the edge of the town, took out two frogs from his pocket, fed them some food, patted their heads, and said, "It's time to act as scouts."
[Your Da Vinci looked at the small town. Where is this? It felt quite fun. He patted Foodie, and the two tadpoles bounced forward.]
[The frogs are ready to enter the town. They see golden light flickering on the ground. Foodie uses its ability to collect the precious metal stone, while Da Vinci sees a glowing flower and uses his ability to collect it.]
[The frogs see several wandering zombies on the street but ignore them and dive into a collapsed supermarket. They see two packets of chocolate, and Foodie uses its ability to collect them. Da Vinci doesn't see anything that interests him.]
Ming entered the town with a shield in his left hand and a crossbow in his right. The few zombies that were slowly wandering around turned to look at him and then ran toward him.
"Cheng!"
He lifted his crossbow and shot them. Using eagle eyes to quickly observe, they were all normal zombies without any elites.
"Ding~ Killing ordinary zombies gives you 21 experience points and 11 gold coins."
"Ding..."
After killing them, he took a quick glance. The town wasn't that big, and collapsed houses were scattered along both sides of the road.
[Your froglets left the supermarket disappointed and continued forward into a collapsed house. They saw a big mouse on top of the kitchen cabinet, carrying a piece of cheese in its mouth. Foodie nudged Da Vinci and said, "Do you hear my stomach growling?"]
[Da Vinci looked at Foodie...and then looked at the mouse. Hey buddy, come down and play~]
[Foodie crouched beside Da Vinci and licked its tongue. It was so much fun!]
Ming shook his head helplessly in the center of town. "Damn it, the two of you came here to scam food and drinks from the mice, right? It seems like they're not very reliable as scouts." With this in mind, he immediately took out a steel plate module and built a six-meter-high, four-meter-long, and wide steel plate well in the middle of the street. He opened one side of the well and built a small platform inside with square bricks. Then he stepped on the brick platform and jumped onto the top of the steel well. He pulled out a fish knife and used the handle to tap the steel plate.
Clang, clang, clang!
"Your froglets were not happy; they almost tricked the mouse down earlier," a clanging sound rang out, scaring the mouse away. They left the collapsed room disappointed.
"Your froglets saw you hitting the steel plate, and it turns out you were the culprit," they thought that you were quite a grown person but still so immoral. They looked at a zombie with golden hair running elegantly.
Da Vinci discovered that this zombie's figure was simply amazing. It rushed towards the zombie to use its collection ability. After it succeeded, Da Vinci thought you would really like it. and they continued to jump and search for the mouse... and cheese.
"Golden hair?" Ming said.
Ming saw those zombies attracted to his tapping and immediately summoned the little sparrow. He was killing zombies while practicing his proficiency, truly perfectly.
As he watched the little sparrow charge at the zombies in eagle mode, he stood on the steel well and surveyed the surroundings. Only ordinary zombies and occasional elites rushed out, but no Lords were found.
"Where are you, killer?" Ming wondered.
He opened the light screen map and found that this small town was one kilometer long and wide. It shouldn't be difficult to find someone in such a range.
"Where are you?"
"Your froglets grinned as they saw the mouse and issued an invitation to play with it. The mouse glanced at them, revealing confusion, and then turned around while holding the cheese.
Your froglets find the mouse ran away. Da Vinci crawled onto Foodie's back and directed it to chase the mouse. The mouse ran in front, and the frogs chased after it from behind.
Your froglets followed the mouse into a courtyard and saw it standing at the door of the basement, staring at two green-skinned frogs. Foodie looked at the mouse and asked it to relax and take a bite of cheese to them so that everyone wouldn't be so tired.
"Heh~"
Ming watched as the eagle killed all the zombies charging at it, then checked the map light screen:
"Countdown to 23:21:01"
"Copy boss: 0/1"
"Copy Zombies: 48/48"
"Now, it's just you left, Chainsaw Man!"
He closed the screen and looked around. Searching for one house after another was not practical, so he immediately pulled out the raging axe and smashed it into the steel plate beneath his feet.
A loud bang!
"Your froglets were not happy. Just when they were about to get the cheese, a loud noise startled a mouse who ran in terror into the basement. The froglets looked back at the source of the noise and thought you had gone crazy. They were just about to get cheese, and now this!
The froglets jumped into the basement, and it was a bit dark down there. They hopped down the stairs and saw the mouse shivering on the ground. The froglets hopped closer to the mouse, and now there was no escape for the mouse. Squeak! The mouse screamed, dropped the cheese, and ran into the darkness.
"you guys," said Ming, who still looking around.
Is that boss deaf?
Let's try hitting it again...
He picked up the axe and swung it down. Clang!
Foodie looked at the cheese and slowly approached it, ready to stick out its tongue. Clang! A big foot stepped on the cheese. Foodie stared blankly at the foot as it moved away, leaving a sticky and dirty cheese pie. It cried because it couldn't even lick it.
Da Vinci watched as the zombie with a chainsaw walked down the basement stairs and opened the basement door to go outside. It patted Foodie and said, "If you don't mind, you can lick it and taste the flavor."
Your foodie was furious and entered battle mode, jumping and running down the basement stairs."
