Chapter 280 The patient's persistence, guarding the eggs and waiting for the beast
Logically speaking, the boss ghost’s mentality wouldn’t break down so quickly.
After all, he is also a strong ghost who has worked his way up from the bottom step by step.
When it comes to mental toughness, he is definitely outstanding.
But the problem is that this is his second time in prison.
Before, he had tried to escape from here through the Gate of Hope in the desert and suffered all kinds of torture.
This deep trauma caused great harm to his heart.
To cure it, top-level psychological therapy is needed, and the boss ghost obviously does not have such conditions.
This early traumatic memory began to gradually erupt when he suffered setbacks in the maze of confusion.
It quickly caused him to collapse.
If he stayed in the office building obediently, he would be able to be rescued directly after Su Ming reached the top of the mountain.
After all, this is their clearance mission and there is no way they can not do it.
Unfortunately, the boss ghost didn't know that he just had to wait. After seeing that there was no movement, he was tempted by the light door. He thought about giving it one more try and trying to escape from here with his own efforts. It would be even better if he could obtain the inheritance of the gods by the way.
As a result, after a series of operations, he found himself in the current situation, suffering greatly and at the same time in a dilemma.
However, there is no life-threatening danger in the short term.
……
……
at the same time.
In a deep void.
Looking at the beds floating in the air, they are spliced together in various styles, including single beds, double beds, and the mattresses, sheets and quilts on them are also varied.
At a glance, there is no end in sight.
This is a vast world made up of all kinds of beds.
The End Cultist patient was struggling to climb from one bed to another.
Before that, he had been drifting on the sea of sorrow for an unknown amount of time, holding onto a piece of wood.
Sleep when you are tired and drink sea water when you are thirsty.
Moreover, there are fish in the water, which can be used to fill the stomach.
The only problem is that no matter whether it is sea water or fish, after drinking or eating it, the sadness will become more intense.
It is very simple to get rid of it. Just let yourself sink to the bottom of the sea and you will be drowned by sadness.
However, the patient did not give up.
Although he basically couldn't do anything, he still persisted.
After a long baptism of sadness, he and the piece of wood finally successfully floated to the door of hope.
After entering the Gate of Hope, you will arrive at the Hell of Sleep.
Here, he could only crawl between the beds.
Endless sleepiness erodes the patient's nerves all the time.
In this situation, any bed seems extremely tempting. As long as he chooses to give up and lie down peacefully, he can have a good sleep.
Trying to stay awake under such temptation is countless times more difficult than getting up in the morning.
However, the patient still managed to control this desire with amazing willpower.
He cursed weakly, "Fuck... those players, why haven't they all died yet..."
"He's not dead, and he's not leaving the dungeon either. What on earth is he trying to do..."
"Do you insist on staying here and slowly torturing me to death? This is simply the most vicious heart of a player..."
The patients crawled forward, one bed after another.
No matter how tempting it was to fall down and sleep, that option did not exist in his mind.
For him, staying alive has become an obsession.
Unless someone could kill him on the spot.
Otherwise, even if he was facing a situation where there was no chance of survival, he would try his best to fight for a way out for himself.
……
……
In front of a thousand-foot ice wall.
The god of standing touched the ice surface with his hand and it was as smooth as a mirror.
The ice wall is translucent, and you can see the cracks all over it at a glance.
It is basically impossible to find a natural point of force.
If you want to climb up, you have to find a way to create a fulcrum yourself.
Zhan Shen has also dabbled in rock climbing. Although he cannot be said to be an expert at it, he still has a clear understanding of the basic theoretical knowledge.
In his hand, a standard long sword of the Northern Ice Empire appeared.
Then, holding the hilt of the sword, he stabbed the sword deeply into the ice wall.
Ding--
A clear voice sounded.
The tip of the sword sunk two centimeters into the ice wall.
Zhan Shen: "Huh, luckily, this ice wall can be destroyed."
"If it can't be destroyed, I really don't know how to get up there."
Despite its hardness, it is still quite difficult to break.
But at least it gives people a glimmer of hope.
He began to formulate a plan for climbing the ice wall in his mind.
But faced with this extremely high vertical ice wall, the tools at hand were very limited.
His little rock climbing experience was simply not enough.
Su Ming: "Stop working, take a break first."
"It's too difficult to climb this ice wall by force. Let's wait and see if we can get backup to give us a ride."
He looked at the huge egg in his arms and muttered, "Call your mother over quickly. It's time to use her strength."
Seeing this, Zhan Shen understood what Su Ming meant: "Boss, you mean that we use this egg to lure the mysterious beast over here."
"And then rely on that giant beast to send us up there?"
Su Ming nodded: "Yes, so what we need to do now is to wait."
Zhan Shen: "But, we walked for so long before, carrying the eggs with us the whole time, and we didn't see the mysterious beast come looking for us."
"Logically speaking, if the mysterious beast really cared about this egg, it should have come here a long time ago."
Su Ming: "I don't know why. Maybe the mysterious beast is forgetful and it takes a long time for it to realize that it has lost its eggs?"
Zhan Shen: "Okay, since the boss has said so, I will wait and see."
The reason Su Ming gave was somewhat perfunctory. If it were someone else, he would definitely ask how you dare to assume that the giant beast will definitely remember the egg, and then come back here, and obey the player's command to take them up?
However, Su Ming has accumulated a very high level of trust through his actual combat performance, and can basically gain the unconditional trust of Lucheng players.
The red tent was pitched near the ice wall.
Compared to the hardship and coldness of a long journey in the wind and snow, it is actually quite comfortable to just stay in the tent, doing nothing but waiting for time to pass.
They carried a large amount of black pine wood, which is quite resistant to burning. The heat provided by a piece of wood of similar size can be equivalent to more than ten pieces of the original wood used. This provided them with super long endurance, and it was not a big problem for them to survive in the snow for a year or two.
As long as there is a way to provide calories, you can rest and stay asleep.
As for the problem of food, Su Ming is fully capable of providing it. It doesn't cost many points to exchange ordinary ingredients with the Octopus Gourmet Magic Mirror. If you don't pursue the effect of the food and just want to fill your stomach, the points of several players can last until the end of time.
After temporarily losing the threat, this snow trek felt like a vacation in the snow. The only problem was that there were few entertainment options and players often felt bored.
Right now, the most anticipated thing for players is all the messy things that appear when the fog comes.
Whenever heavy fog came, Su Ming would let them hide in the tents and not let them go out no matter what happened outside. Facts had proved that this decision made their situation very safe, and no matter what happened outside, they were all safe and sound.
Players also began to change from their initial worries to looking forward to the appearance of fog.
