Chapter 7 - Sent to prison: Monsterized tasker
Chapter 7: Monsterized tasker
The taskers did not answer for the time being, because the train gradually slowed down after approaching the stone monument. The high whistle sounded along with the sound of steam, and the train stopped beside the stone monument of ‘Wanfeng Park’.
The broadcast sounded, “The second station, Wanfeng Park, has arrived. This time the train will stop for 30 minutes. Pa.s.sengers who want to get off please get off the train as soon as possible, and the train will start again in 30 minutes.”
The stone monument vibrated, and birds with bright red feathers about the size of fingernails fluttered their wings and flew down from above the stone monument. After they left, the colour of the word ‘Wanfeng Park’ suddenly dimmed a lot and the birds waved their wings. Screaming, dancing and spinning back and forth in front of the carriage, it was not known whether they were just wandering around.
Everyone temporarily put aside the topic they were discussing and gathered in front of the car window to observe the change of the site this time.
It’s just that everyone around Feng hejia and Fenghe Lulu intentionally spread out. Because of her demeanour, Fenghe Lulu had never been close to her except her boyfriend. But Feng Hejia has always been very popular, so now the spa.r.s.eness of people around her was becoming more and more obvious.
The glamorous woman in the long red dress had a light expression and was indifferent to it, just looking out the window, seeming a little lost.
There was movement in Car No. 7 very soon.
The heavy iron door was slammed open from the inside and slammed inside, making a sharp, piercing crashing sound.
A few seconds later, a person stumbled out of the carriage, stepped on the empty stairs, and slammed into the ground with a bang, causing a burst of dust.
At the moment when the tasker fell from the carriage, the red bird’s eyes which were flying aimlessly in the sky instantly turned red, like vampire bats that were stimulated by the smell of blood, rushing down from the sky like a madman, surrounding the tasker in an airtight manner.
No one knew what the tasker was going through, only to see the birds attached to his surface slowly dwindle. His exposed skin was normal, but his body bulged abnormally.
After all the birds attached to his body disappeared, the tasker got up from the ground tremblingly in a very bloated posture. His movements were not as flexible as before, swaying, and his skin was too swollen. It’s broken a bit, but it’s not shrivelled, only some red-pointed objects protruding from the broken and leaking skin ……
The tasker crawled back into the carriage again, and after a while, two more taskers were pushed down from the carriage.
In the distance, two hunched black figures slowly moved over. They threw the two taskers directly into corpse water. They were like black skin, moving back and forth on the corpse water. After absorbing the water, they also climbed onto the train again after the water traces on the ground were absorbed.
Next, four more people were pushed from the carriage…
Time pa.s.sed little by little, Xiangnu blinked because he couldn’t see but there was no panic on his beautiful face, his long and dense black eyelashes trembled, he opened his mouth, and his clear voice broke the somewhat stagnant atmosphere, “Twenty-five minutes have pa.s.sed, how is the situation now?”
Without looking out of the window, Yu Su replied directly, “The 7th carriage has almost been occupied by monsters and all the quest pa.s.sengers will be replaced by monster pa.s.sengers, and 11 monsters have gone to the 4th carriage.”
w.a.n.g Nan subconsciously asked, “How did you see the monsters go to No. 4 carriage? Why didn’t we see it?”
Yu Su couldn’t help frowning, Chen Chengen leaned on the window and looked around, pa.s.sing by the missionaries who were being eaten, counted the monsters on the ground, and then said, “There are already 32 missionaries a.s.similated with monsters in the No. 7 carriage. There have to be 53 people in total in the carriage, that is to say, there are only 21 people left, and only 21 monsters are needed to a.s.similate with the 21 taskers who will be pushed out and the remaining 11 monsters outside will not be idle, so they will go to the second one to be checked pa.s.sing carriages…”
As if to confirm his statement, the door of the No. 4 car was pulled open immediately, and 11 missionaries with pale faces were pushed out, and the monsters who were wandering around No. 7 mission personnel suddenly leaned over a few…
The faces of the missionaries in the No. 1 carriage suddenly sank, and their mood became more and more unpleasant.
Yu Su said, “According to the rules speculated by Xiangnu, the No. 1 car is the third one to be checked, and it stands to reason that it will also be boarded by monsters at the fourth stop. But looking at the current situation, before the third stop, a group of people will be cleaned first.”
Everyone’s faces were ugly, Xiang Nu was a little uncomfortable so he slowly leaned towards Yu Su asking in a low voice, “Mr Yu, are those monsters very powerful? Judging from the movement I heard, I always feel that in the No. 7 carriage, the taskers were powerless to fight back. But, can’t we kill them back?”
Yu Su didn’t speak, Chen Chengen smiled bitterly, “The reason why monsters are monsters is that they break through the power of human beings themselves, and they make trouble for us. So there is a system to call us dying people and give us extra life in exchange we are going to either feed the monsters with our extra life or have to fight monsters.”
“If we can find the cause of the formation of the monsters and offer them to the system, we will be able to clear the level and get longer lives. If we can’t do this, then our end is to use the last residual heat to feed these monsters, and then Put these monsters in the instance into a short period of quiet.”
“We originally exist as food. Looking for clues is the last struggle for survival. We do not have the strength to fight monsters.”
Xiangnu knew this. He was trained before entering this dungeon, but his understanding was very one-sided, and it was impossible for the central system to answer his questions one by one.
Seeing this, Xiangnu quickly asked, “Then we can only struggle to survive again and again as a reserve food, can we never see hope?”
Chen Chengen paused, with a hint of hesitation on his face, but Xiangnu couldn’t see it and didn’t know how to stop, and still focused on looking at him intently, waiting for his answer.
This time, it was Feng Hejia who spoke, and she said, “You can try to become a ‘monster’ too so that you can change from a prey to a hunter and have the power to fight monsters.”
Xiangnu ‘looked’ at her, Feng Hejia smiled at him and said, “However, few people do this, and even if they do, they may be regarded as a real monster by the dungeon, unable to clear the level, and will be left in that monster dungeon forever. But there are always exceptions, such as me and Lulu.”
Hearing her name, the girl in the pink skirt looked over, tilted her head, and showed a strange smile, the corners of her lips were pulled very large looking hideous and terrifying.
A look of surprise appeared on Xiangnu’s face, and Feng hejia said casually, “My surname is indeed related to the sewing beauty club because I mutated into a monster in the sewing beauty club. My original name was Ren Jia, but I was lucky. After I came out of that copy, my name became Feng He Jia, although I know it’s strange, I recognize my new name and new ident.i.ty from the bottom of my heart.”
There were many newcomers and inexperienced missionaries in the No. 1 compartment. Hearing this, they were frightened to death. They wished that Feng Hejia would immediately disappear from their sight.
Seeing this, Chen Chengen quickly rea.s.sured, “Don’t be afraid, everyone, although Feng Hejia’s body has mutated since she can get out of that copy, it proves that she still has a human reason and is safe.”
w.a.n.g Nan muttered, “Looking at Feng Hejia, I think I can trust her but Feng He Lulu looks very abnormal. After being a monster, will people really not be affected?”
Xiangnu was very curious about the word monsterization, and asked, “Then, after your monsterization, have there been any other changes besides your name? Do you still want to partic.i.p.ate in the quest?”
Feng Hejia explained, “I have also encountered several monsterized taskers before and their names have not changed. The reason why I changed my name maybe because of the problem of the monster blood I merged with. As for quests, you can partic.i.p.ate in them. You can also not partic.i.p.ate, after all, the purpose of the tasker’s existence is to trade with the system and earn life points for life extension. After becoming a monster, my life is no longer in danger, and I can find a copy to stay.”
Having said this, she paused then smiled helplessly, “But most of these dungeons are very inhuman, killing and eating people is common to them. I can’t stand such an environment. If I really stay in such an environment, I will turn into a real monster sooner or later. Ao I’m still doing quests because as long as I’m still a quester, I can enter the central hall and continue to live in the crowd. Until one day, I want to stay in a certain dungeon forever. If I continue to live, the system will revoke my status as a tasker.”
“Although I have become a monster, there is no difference between me and you missionaries. After entering the dungeon, I will also suffer the same attack as you. The difference is that I am stronger than your physique and I can kill a small number of monsters.”
Xiangnu knocked on the window and asked, “Then these monsters outside…?”
Those taskers who were far away from Feng Hejia looked at her with antic.i.p.ation, the rejection in their eyes gradually disappeared and Feng Hejia said lightly, “There are also strong and weak monster taskers, I can deal with this most of the monsters in this ‘Wanfeng Park’ but I can’t do anything about the female corpse in the Furnace Apartment.”
When everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Feng Hejia turned around and looked at Yu Su saying, “But I think Mr Yu might be able to deal with these monsters.”
Xiangnu heard the words and hurriedly leaned against Yu Su, Yu Su glanced down at him, ignoring Feng He Jia.
Feng Hejia said, “There are 53 people in the other cars, but our car has 56 people. The reason behind the extra three people a.s.signed in this car should be Mr Yu, me and Feng He Lulu.”
Xiangnu couldn’t help but wonder: “How do you know that there must be something wrong with Mr Yu?”
Feng Hejia smiled slightly and blinked at him, “Because I was the second one to enter the car, after me, it was Feng He Lulu and her little boyfriend, Mr Yu was earlier than us, so I made a bold guess, Mr Yu may be the same as us.”
Xiangnu nodded clearly, “So that’s how it is…”
Yu Su denied it, “It’s not the same, I’m not a monsterized tasker, you’ve got the wrong person.”
Everyone was stunned but Yu Su pointed out the window and said, “The leader of the No. 4 carriage, Lin Cheng, is also a monster tasker.”
Everyone quickly looked out of the car and saw five or six black tentacles the size of a baby’s wrist flew out from the door of the No. 4 car. It wrapped around a few taskers who were thrown out and tried to pull them back to the car but didn’t succeed. Since several monsters from the No. 7 carriage stopped Lin Cheng firmly and outside the car, there were also several monsters like black vellum staring at Lin Cheng, their dark green eyes flashing with a venomous l.u.s.tre.
Obviously, Lin Cheng was not an opponent of those monsters.
Feng Hejia’s beautiful face was full of surprise and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.
It turned out that the monsterized taskers were not all gathered in the No. 1 car, so why are there 3 more people in the No. 1 car than other cars and who are the three extra people?
Yu Su touched Xiangnu with his hand, and his words were brief, “Tell the time.”
Xiang Nu’s mind was focused and he quickly replied, “Thirty minutes are up!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the driver’s cab in front of the No. 1 car suddenly vibrated. Then, the flight attendant with the face of a sphinx pulled the window of the car and jumped out of the driver’s cab.
