Chapter 758: Impossible to Counter the Monster?! Then Everyone Dies Together!
The sudden incident caught Su Yang off guard and killed him.
If he hadn't just sensed something off and deliberately slowed his steps, the one now attacked by the Face-Clinging Worm would have been him!
Qin Yu Sen is a cunning, treacherous, cowardly man who, using the excuse of searching for goods, plotted a frame‑up.
Su Yang was set up like that, and his heart naturally boiled.
He prides himself on staying unshaken by change and rarely curses, yet now he couldn't restrain himself.
Qin Yu Sen fled hastily, partly to avoid Su Yang's coercion and partly because he feared remaining would have him killed by the monsters inside.
The method was crude, yet highly effective.
Bang bang!
At that moment, Yu Xi was banging her head against the wall, emitting a huge sound.
She was seen pulling the Face-Clinging Worm's foot outward with force.
But however hard she pulled, it was to no avail.
Even slamming into the wall didn't budge it.
From Su Yang's viewpoint, he could clearly see the Face-Clinging Worm extend a long, hard proboscis that pierced the helmet and her brain.
The proboscis stretched and retracted, as if siphoning some material.
Lu Zhiwei, brimming with curiosity, poked the Face-Clinging Worm's body with her hand, as if finding a fun toy, and exclaimed, "Look, this worm is so soft!"
…Find a way to save her, Su Yang said.
Why save her? It's not like I caused it, Lu Zhiwei asked, tilting her head.
Saving her both preserves our current power and helps us uncover how to counter the Face-Clinging Worm! Su Yang explained.
As he spoke, he suddenly yanked the Face-Clinging Worm's body and ripped it forcefully!
What?
Su Yang was startled; he realized this thing was fused with Yu Xi, and no matter how hard he strained, it wouldn't move.
Hehe, fun, I'll try too! Lu Zhiwei, feeling playful, reached out, seized the Face-Clinging Worm's two tentacles, and swung them side to side.
What on earth is this thing? Su Yang's expression was extremely solemn.
He had thought it was just an ordinary worm, yet never expected it couldn't be torn away with brute force.
Thus, wouldn't any danger encountered here become impossible to defend against?
Only an option to flee?
Does it look like a Cantonese‑East double ponytail? Lu Zhiwei turned her head and smiled.
As soon as the words ended, a flame suddenly burst onto Yu Xi's body!
Boom!
The instant she felt the heat wave, Lu Zhiwei abruptly released her grip and stepped back, still trembling, and said, "Scared the baby to death."
Su Yang furrowed his brows, observed briefly, and thought to himself, "Innate Talent?"
The flame intensified, eventually lighting the whole Passage.
The heat wave surged outward, scorching the walls to black.
Even the surrounding air began to warp.
Even twenty meters away, Su Yang felt entirely uneasy, his whole body sweating.
One can easily imagine how high the temperature at the heat source's core would rise.
At that moment, Su Yang's gaze precisely caught the Face-Clinging Worm shifting.
Any chance?
However, contrary to his hopes, the Face-Clinging Worm appeared completely unaffected by the high temperature, merely adjusting its posture to feed more efficiently.
What an impressive worm! Lu Zhiwei exclaimed.
Soon after, the flame abruptly ceased, and Yu Xi fell backward with a thud.
Lifeless.
At the same time, Su Yang received a message—"Player Yu Xi—star Coin."
The Face-Clinging Worm, after feeding fully, finally came down from her body, expelled a silk thread, and returned to its original position.
Su Yang's eyes lowered, and he saw Yu Xi's face shriveled and withered, like old tree bark.
She's dead…
What a pity.
Lu Zhiwei smacked her lips, turned the Flashlight, and said, "Let's go, we head left."
Su Yang inhaled, stared at the motionless Face-Clinging Worm that seemed trapped in deep slumber, and silently followed.
From the attack to death was under five minutes.
In between, external forces intervened, and finally she was forced to use her Innate Talent.
Yet whether by violent tearing or scorching heat, the deadlock could not be broken.
From this it seems Qin Yu Sen was right—these monsters' attack methods are part of the rules.
To break the deadlock, one must use equally rule‑based means.
But…
Where to find a countermeasure? Su Yang fell into thought.
A single worm this terrifying can easily kill a player with an offensive Innate Talent.
How terrifying could the Black Shadow spoken of by Qin Yu Sen be?
No wonder the previously composed and carefree him was frightened by the Black Shadow like a grandson.
"Courage isn't the original sin; the sin of cowardice and malicious framing should die a thousand deaths!" Su Yang's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
He could fully imagine how tragic the outcome would be if he were attacked by a Face-Clinging Worm.
In the awkward situation where one cannot speak, 'Deception' is Useless.
He can only Vision Perception the Face-Clinging Worm sucking himself to death.
"La la la~"
Lu Zhiwei walks and hops, humming an unknown little tune from her mouth.
She looks extremely content, without the slightest tension.
"What are you doing?" Su Yang says, puzzled.
"Hm? I'm singing, are your ears deaf?" Lu Zhiwei replies matter-of-factly.
There are many Monster in here; before figuring out the mechanism, try not to cause too much commotion, Su Yang says.
"What are you afraid of? Monster might not even eat people," Lu Zhiwei says.
Su Yang: …
He basically has no way to deal with her at all.
"Sasha—"
At this moment, the Walkie-talkie on his shoulder suddenly emitted a sound.
Immediately, a hoarse mechanical voice sounded: "There is a Springhead to the northwest, requesting support."
Although the voice changed slightly, Su Yang could still recognize the person's identity.
"Ji Huai?"
"What is Springhead?" Lu Zhiwei asks curiously.
"I don't know," Su Yang shakes his head, "Never mind, let's continue looking for supplies."
"Alright."
Not far ahead, the Walkie-talkie sent another distress signal: "Near the exit direction there is Xiao Hei, stay far away, return the original way to get out!"
Reminder once more, to get out return the original way, exit from the entrance!
The voice was unfamiliar; Su Yang guessed it must be another player who seized the Walkie-talkie.
The next moment, the Short-haired Woman's voice rang out: "The entrance cannot be used; outside there is a Forest Giant blocking the gate!"
What?!
Su Yang's Pupil narrowed slightly.
He clearly remembered the giant being stopped on the opposite side of the bridge, and it hadn't come over.
But why?
At this point, Su Yang pressed the Walkie-talkie and said, "Did you personally Sight the Giant at the entrance?"
"Yes, it has already devoured a person," the Short-haired Woman said.
Su Yang's expression turned exceedingly solemn.
Wolves ahead, tigers behind.
Simple Map actually has so many Monster?
Its perilous level is several times greater than that of a random Death Game!
"Could it be that there is more than one Giant?" Su Yang thought silently.
If that were true, how could they get out?
At that moment, Ji Huai transmitted again: "Springhead is catching up, requesting assistance!"
"I'll say it one last time, if no one comes to help…"
"Then everyone will die together!"
