Chapter 128 Dormitory Friendship League (Twenty)
Theoretically speaking, the black fog is Yueqiong's special ability, which means that he can cut as much consciousness as he wants and attach it to it, even if he puts his entire brain on it.
The false smile on the eyes above the mask left Yue Qiong expressionless.
——Fortunately he didn’t do that, otherwise he would have been eliminated due to brain death.
Although we already know that Tang Xinjue has a toilet plunger in his hand, it is still far less impactful than seeing it from the first-person perspective.
Not to mention, this toilet plunger just swallowed up his black mist in one gulp, which was equivalent to eating up a portion of his life value. Before that part of his consciousness was annihilated, it also transmitted this experience back to the subject - his brain - in every detail.
Yue Qiong clenched his hands on the fence. Fortunately, the mask concealed the changes in his facial expression, so no one could tell that he was suffering from a lack of blood supply to his brain.
At the same time, on the balcony of Room 606, the first thing Tang Xinjue did after taking back the toilet plunger was to check whether the rubber head was damaged, and to see if he could spit out what he had just eaten.
Spit it out? Impossible. The toilet plunger refused to cooperate and even burped.
The remaining three people came over to watch as they dealt with the Poké Balls. "How's it going? Did you choke?"
Zhang You held the rubber head with a serious face: "Everything seems to be normal at the moment. Xin Jue, make it spit out some water."
Tang Xin Jue pressed the water spitting button.
The toilet plunger is a weapon that has a history of causing "food accumulation", so Tang Xinjue does not intend to use its devouring ability again when he is not sure whether the food is "safe".
But maybe it was because he was hungry, but when the toilet plunger saw the cursed black fog, he couldn't wait to swallow it in one bite.
Guo Guo looked at Tang Xin Jue and then at Zhang You, his eyes full of confusion: "Wait, am I the only one with a problem? The rules now prohibit candidates from attacking each other, right? The black mist is Yue Qiong's ability, and the toilet just swallowed the black mist. This, this is considered an attack, right?"
She was afraid that the game would suddenly impose a penalty for violation and take away the toilet plunger!
Tang Xinjue remained calm and said, "What attack? Can eating be called an attack?"
The plunger spit out a stream of water in agreement, hitting the cloak.
A dark grey light flashed at the handle of its metal rod, as if some pattern was about to be formed, but in the end nothing appeared. There were still only the original three skull totems, representing [Shuttling], [Howling] and [Armor] respectively.
He successfully swallowed a portion of energy, but failed to inherit the attributes corresponding to this energy... Tang Xinjue's eyes moved slightly.
"As we all know, toilet plungers don't eat for no reason."
At first glance, Tang Xinjue's words sounded like those of a parent who mindlessly tolerates his naughty child's mischief, but after hearing his words, the three of them suddenly had subtle expressions.
Yes, the toilet plunger has always been very picky about the targets it devours - it only accepts special items containing ghost energy in the dungeon.
How did Yueqiong's supernatural power Black Mist pass this screening standard?
Tang Xin Jue smiled and said, "From the other side, if the toilet plunger is swallowed according to usual habits, then it does not violate the rules."
The rules did not react, which meant that the "victim" Black Mist that was eaten was judged to be something similar to ghost energy... and no longer belonged to the category of players!
The four of them looked at each other, tacitly suppressed the shock in their eyes, and memorized this information.
There is new explosive information in this game almost every second. If you play alone or are not good at analysis, you may be dizzy, not to mention keeping up with the intense pace of the game.
But Tang Xin Jue can.
She took all the information she had just analyzed into her mind and did not continue to talk about it. She counted the seconds that kept passing by and looked down at the guardrail: "It's coming."
The second wave of elves is about to appear.
In the sea of consciousness, at the other end of the mental connection, the shield girl's puzzled voice sounded: "What's coming?"
She was busy helping to fight monsters and almost forgot to ask Tang Xin Jue. Now that she remembered, she immediately added, "By the way, you just told me not to let this boy stay on my balcony for too long. What did you mean?"
This time, she quickly heard Tang Xinjue's answer.
"The dormitory is where the candidates belong. If you can hide in different dormitories at will, have you ever thought about—"
"People with poor strength and who can't catch elves all want to hide in your place. What do you do?"
Shield girl: “…”
She realized it later and turned her head to look outside, catching many inquiring eyes looking over here.
If we ignore the danger of being exposed and attacking each other, climbing and crossing between dormitory buildings is not an unattainable challenge given the candidates' current physical fitness.
“…”
The corner of her mouth twitched, and she heard someone say from the other end of her sea of consciousness: "Besides, the game never leaves us room to exploit loopholes."
The shield girl looked serious.
She opened her mouth: "...You are right."
There are still two dormitories left in the informer camp, which means that at least six rules have not been announced. No one knows what behavior will violate the hidden rules and put them in fatal danger.
After the conversation ended, the shield girl turned to look at Ma Xiaobo and said, "I'll help you get back later. With the help of the shield, you shouldn't fall down halfway."
Ma Xiaobo scratched his head. Although he didn’t know why the boss suddenly changed his mind, it was a good thing to be able to return to the dormitory safely.
So he thanked them repeatedly while looking down with a silly look on his face: "Then I'll tell my roommates... Lao Li, Lao Zhang, I'm here, you guys can pick me up later!"
Following the voice's call, two furry heads popped out from the first floor. Before Ma Xiaobo could smile, he saw the two heads shaking like two rattles:
"Catch that shit!"
As Ma Xiaobo was stunned, his two roommates pointed outside with resentment, and saw that in the strange fog outside the first floor, huge blue-black bubbles began to swell up like bubbling in boiling water, and they were gradually leaving the ground and flying upwards.
In the time it took to be distracted, the roommate had already quickly retreated into the dormitory, and only the echo of his angry roar lingered in the room: "I, your father, don't want to die so early!"
Bang, bang, bang——
The dark blue bubble flew to a height of three meters and suddenly burst. Countless blue monsters that looked exactly like the previous mutant elves roared loudly and jumped down to the first floor!
Second wave!
In stark contrast to the first wave, the second wave of elves jumped up layer by layer starting from the first floor.
Almost as soon as this wave of elves appeared, several relatively weaker dormitories had already drawn their curtains and closed their doors. They would rather not score points in the game than be caught in the air and then thrown down to their death.
As the rules suggest, the difficulty of capturing elves increases: the more elves are caught, the more difficult the next wave will be.
The first wave of elves could only spray venom, but the second wave learned to attack with their claws, and even to tear apart balcony structures such as guardrails and clotheslines, actively attacking the candidates' area.
"There are 20 of them in total. Their activity pattern is the same as the first wave. They are expected to arrive here in one and a half minutes."
Tang Xin Jue came to the conclusion based on visual observation.
Zhang You asked: "How many will be left when they get to us?"
"About five."
"How many shall we catch?"
Tang Xin Jue paused and said, "I want them all."
