Chapter 4263: Heroes Attack! (Part 3)

~11 min read 2,007 words

However, the game mechanism was like this, and there was no other way. Both had no will to fight and chose to retreat. This turn they didn't move, and Greed clicked on a grid outside the combat area, and two options appeared: one was to spend action points to expand the combat area; the other was to leave. Greed chose to leave.

It seemed this instance wasn't forced combat; if you wanted to run, you could still run. And after he chose to leave, a combat settlement interface appeared, showing specific numerical values, and according to the damage caused by both sides, gave a score. After the scores collided, the winner was displayed.

The winner was of course Lord Superman and Batman, because their output values were too high. Gray Mist's side hit once in the first three-stage combo, hit twice in the second three-stage combo, but the last strike didn't hit, the damage caused wasn't high, and continuous blood loss didn't deduct much health either.

Just as Greed was sighing that Gray Mist's skill set wasn't strong enough, while leading him to run in the opposite direction, suddenly he saw a building appear at the grid ahead—"Abandoned Cabin".

Hearing him say that, Gray Mist immediately followed the guidance and ran over to take a look; the door opened, and he looked at two gaunt ghouls face to face.

"Mommy!" Gray Mist screamed, "Why are there zombies?!!"

"You are calling for mommy, the zombies are the ones who want to call for mommy. You don't even look at which of you two looks more like a ghost." Greed couldn't help but complain. Because he was watching from the third-person perspective, those two ghouls were originally eating in the house, heard movement outside the door, and came out to check; when the door opened, a mass of strange gray mist was floating at the door, which was scarier than a ghost movie.

And after meeting two ghouls, the grid immediately turned red, directly entering the combat state. Gray Mist didn't react, and after being scratched, he wailed, only to realize that he didn't lose any health at all.

Greed also reacted; who said this card set was weak? This card set was simply too strong! It turned out Gray Mist was specially designed for PVE!

Don't look at Gray Mist defaulting to covering the entire combat area, but he was immune to basic attacks. And these small monsters seemed to only know basic attacks; they had no card sets, and no skills, and couldn't cause any damage to Gray Mist at all.

And two of Gray Mist's three-stage combos were area damage; he directly smashed down with one fist, and both ghouls lay down.

"Go into the house and take a look," Greed said, "there must be supplies."

After Gray Mist went in and searched, he really found some supplies: there were bandages that could restore health, hot soup that could restore mental value, and he also found a key, a "Explorer's Leather Jacket," which could add some defense when equipped on the body.

"It's actually an extraction game." Gray Mist sighed.

"You really play a lot." Greed shook his head, and then used both the bandages and hot soup for Gray Mist, restoring both health and mana.

"I don't know for a moment whether it's more outrageous for an Outer God to restore health by using bandages, or to restore sanity by drinking hot soup." Greed complained.

"Obviously it's more outrageous for me to be able to wear a jacket." Gray Mist put on the jacket, but the design program didn't seem to consider making an adaptation for this kind of peculiar creature, so the jacket just floated in mid-air, looking even more terrifying.

And on the other side, Bruce's exploration wasn't so smooth. He heavily threw a strange-looking monster that looked a bit like a crab to the ground, exhaled, and said: "Lucifer really has no tricks left, even face-huggers are brought out."

"I said to switch forms, but you didn't." Selina said, "You are too disadvantaged hitting them with basic attacks. If you really tongue-kissed this thing, don't think about kissing me tonight!"

Bruce sighed and said: "I was careless; I should have directly opened the Barbatos form to hammer them to death. Who would have thought the first thing I did when I came here was to hammer a crab."

"And almost didn't hammer it." Selina added.

Bruce looked at the cellar entrance in front of him, and then said: "There shouldn't be any more inside, right?"

"That's hard to say, you'd better switch forms first." After Selina finished speaking, she threw out a card. Instantly Bruce floated into mid-air, a pair of bat wings appeared behind his back, and thick black mist erupted from his eyes.

He flew into mid-air, and then slowly fell downward. Just as he was about to fall to the ground, he discovered there were traps on the ground. He said with lingering fear: "I really should have switched forms; if I fell down, falling damage plus trap damage, wouldn't it deduct half my health?"

"One look and I know you haven't spent much time in the slums, young master. Although Gotham's sewers don't necessarily have spike traps, every one of them is a small chemical pool. If you fall in, you can dye your hair green and go do stand-up comedy."

Bruce moved forward all the way, just walked to the next grid, and another face-hugger popped out. He directly retracted his wings and waved them fiercely, and a whirlwind composed of dark power blew the face-hugger into mid-air. After the whirlwind ended, only a mass of dark ashes remained.

"This basic attack skill replacement is quite easy to use," Bruce said, "it's just that I don't know what the basic attack of the angel form is."

"Should be using a sword, right?" Selina speculated, "The icon of this card has a sword drawn on it, and it seems it can fly out; it must be very cool."

"That's for sure," Bruce shook his head and said, "the armor I designed for myself is very handsome; finally it can come in handy."

He continued to walk inside, and then discovered a door on the left side; after walking into this grid, the name of the building was displayed as "Researcher's Cabin." Bruce found an item on the table called "Researcher's Notes."

The content above was all blurred text, and there was no information, but the item description gave a hint: "Collecting all researcher's notes seems to have some effect."

"It seems there is no plot." Bruce said.

"I feel there shouldn't be a specific plot, but there should still be a story outline. The clothes you are wearing seem to be the standard equipment of the research station. I am also in a room at the research station now; it looks like we are members of the research station."

"I understand, 'The Thing'. This explains the face-hugger; it's just that I don't know who released the monster in the ancient glacier..."

Just as he said this, thick mist covered all the grids. On the screens of all commanders, they saw an abnormal state appear above their heads: "Dense Fog".

Originally, the commanders could see about 16 grids, but once the dense fog came out, their field of vision was reduced to eight grids. And the field of vision of the combatants was reduced to only one grid, that is, the visibility was less than 10 meters.

"This is really killing me." Pikachu ran forward on his four short legs, and after running halfway, discovered that the glacier crack he saw had disappeared directly into the dense fog. He said to Peter: "Can you still see?"

"I can only see half the distance of before, but you continue to run forward. As long as I see a corner of the crack, I will let you stop; you shouldn't fall into it."

But how could things be so simple. Pikachu ran forward all the way, and suddenly saw several figures in the dense fog ahead; he thought they were other players, and just wanted to say hello, only to find that they didn't look like people.

"Holy crap! There are monsters!" Pikachu said somewhat shocked, "Why do I have to fight monsters besides fighting players?!!"

"This isn't strange; it was warned before that there might be monsters. Just release Thunderbolt and solve them. I feel that there might be supplies to restore action points in that glacier crack. Don't be afraid of wasting, quick battle, quick decision."

"Alright, Thunderbolt——!!!"

A burst of electric light flashed, and all the monsters lay down directly. Pikachu frowned and said: "I feel we are making a mountain out of a molehill; using small skills seems to be okay too."

"It's not that simple. Although your attack power is high, you are really too brittle. There are three monsters here; even if two touch you, I estimate you'll only have a sliver of health left. Status is very important in this kind of game, let's go, go ahead and take a look."

Moving forward again, as a result, another figure was seen. Black Widow Seeing Natasha, wearing sunglasses, appeared in their field of vision.

"I just saw you guys," Seeing Natasha said, arms crossed, "solving three monsters with one big move, you are quite amazing, yellow-haired rat."

Pikachu's hair stood on end, and he said: "How the hell did you see me?! Isn't it foggy?"

"High-tech equipment," Seeing Natasha pointed to her goggles, and then said, "you just finished releasing your big move, you should be out of mana, right?"

"Don't come over! Be careful I shock you!"

"Bang!"

"Holy crap, it's poisonous!" Pikachu, who directly took a "Widow's Bite," screamed.

"Of course, she is Black Widow," Peter said somewhat helplessly, "she is an expert in using poison. What do you say? Fight or retreat?"

"We ran, but she will chase us, right? This woman is a lunatic!" Pikachu couldn't help but curse, "She came to the Antarctic as if she returned home! Oh, no, the Antarctic isn't as cold as her home!!!"

"Then let's run," Peter also chickened out, and said, "we can't single-handedly fight a Russian female agent in an environment that looks like the Siberian snowfield. If she drinks two more sips later, we will both be finished here today!"

Peter decisively chose to leave the battle. Sure enough, the combat settlement judged them to have failed, but they didn't have time to look, and ran toward the ice crack with all their might.

"Really boring," Seeing Natasha said, "wandered for a long time, and only met such an opponent, but they ran away. Should I chase?"

Bucky in the research station also sighed. He discovered that Seeing Natasha was really like a bear; the colder it was, the more lively she was, or to be precise, excited, and had been rubbing her hands for a long time.

"Don't chase them," Bucky said, "if you really force Pikachu, he will release electricity. His electric current should have the effect of paralysis or something; if it deducts action points, we won't be able to leave later."

"Also, now probably only we can see clearly in the dense fog. We should take this opportunity to explore more, get some supplies, and then start killing."

"Makes sense," Seeing Natasha said, "let's go."

"Why is this damn place so cold!" Stark shivered in the cold wind, and said.

"No way, once you enter the game, your basic resistance is all reduced by 30%. Before the armor is built, you can only endure it first," Steve said, "if I went down first, I could still help you save parts."

"Is there a house ahead? Let's go search." Stark said, "Isn't my passive skill that I can find parts no matter what I search? Hurry up and gather a basic armor first, otherwise I will freeze to death!"
