Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

Chapter 348 Armed Princess and Rat Man

The two people and the demon walked out of the city through the streets.

He noticed the strange looks he was getting from the people around him.

She couldn't help but sigh and rub her forehead, saying, "Why do I feel like the groom leading your horse?"

Because Wu Wang did not walk alongside her, but instead rode on the back of the Corruption Demon.

Wang Xianzhi followed beside him, wearing high heels he wasn't used to.

It naturally gives the impression of being inferior to others.

However, the person riding the pollution demon high above was dressed simply, even somewhat shabby.

The woman who was responsible for leading the horses on foot was dressed like a royal noblewoman.

How could this not seem strange to other passersby?

Before Wu Wang could reply, a passerby said with a look of disdain, "This man has no sense of responsibility. His woman is walking on the ground, while he's riding a horse and enjoying himself."

In their view, this attire and status presented a mismatch.

That means the two must have a very close relationship.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xianzhi looked up at Wu Wang with a half-smile.

She did not refute the passerby's address.

Let's wait and see how this "widow" will react.

Would he dismount and give up his position to me?
Or should I pull myself up and ride the Corruption Demon together?
Amidst the growing whispers around him, Wu Wang merely glanced at Wang Xianzhi.

He said casually, "Have you heard the story of 'Riding a Donkey'?"

The other person shrugged and tilted their head.

She was naturally very familiar with this common fable.

“When Grandpa rides a donkey, they will say, ‘This man doesn’t love his grandson. How can he let such a small child run with the donkey?’”

“If a grandson rides a donkey, they will say, ‘This grandson doesn’t know how to respect his elders. How can he let his grandfather walk at such an old age?’”

“When two people ride a donkey together, they will say, ‘This is animal abuse; they’re almost crushing the donkey to death.’”

“Both of them walk, and they would say, ‘If they have a donkey and don’t ride it, how foolish is this grandfather and grandson?’”

Do you understand what I mean?

Hearing Wu Wang slowly and deliberately telling a fable.

Wang Xianzhi, who was about to take out sneakers from his backpack to replace his high heels, curled his lip.

He said helplessly, "I understand, I understand, you just want to say that you won't let other people's opinions change your mind, that you're a person with your own opinions, right?"

"But I'm wondering if this pollution demon is a donkey?"

"With its size, it could easily carry a family of four, let alone two people, right?"

Wang Xianzhi was absolutely right about this.

The pollution demon is not merely a composite of mutated features from various animals.

Furthermore, it can enhance these so-called characteristics.

Judging from its appearance, this Corruption Demon was the strongest one Wang Xianzhi knew.

If the Witcher does not have a weapon specifically designed to counter the Corruption Demon.

She had no doubt that this corrupted demon could easily slaughter the demon hunters who hunted it.

However, Wu Wang shook his head upon hearing her explanation.

He said in a very serious tone, "No, what I mean is—"

"Call me Grandpa, and I'll let you sit down."

Wang Xianzhi: "..."

You went through all that trouble, even telling a fable, just to say this to disgust me, right?
I specially made a plate of dumplings just for this bowl of vinegar.

This guy definitely still has something wrong with his head!
She gritted her teeth and said, "What if I don't call out?"

"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. We're from Dongshan, and girls aren't allowed at the table. You'll have to walk." Wu Wang told Pollution Demon to quicken his pace without turning his head.

Wang Xianzhi, who had changed into his sneakers, followed behind him with a dark expression.

Your accent doesn't sound like it's from Dongshan at all! I can even hear some Beijing accents.

In fact, for advanced players of their level, the physical exertion from simply walking or jogging is almost zero.

Even if he didn't ride the Corruption Demon, it would only be a bit more troublesome for Wang Xianzhi, but it wouldn't affect his travel efficiency at all.

Just looking at Wu Wang lying on the back of the Pollution Demon with that nonchalant attitude...

She got angry for no reason.

"Hiss... In a sense, this guy is quite suitable to be the MT (main tank, the main person responsible for attracting monster aggro in raid battles). He doesn't need any skills to taunt, all he needs is his mouth."

As the true ruler of this Sego Castle.

Wang Xianzhi naturally had a way to quietly leave with Wu Wang without alerting any guards.

The two humans and one demon arrived on the wasteland.

As Wu perished, he would occasionally adjust his position.

They quickly moved their group further south.

It must be said that the king of Via Castle was a foot fetishist and a treacherous bastard.

But the things in his treasure trove were indeed of the highest quality.

At least the map he provided was completely correct.

On the map with the witch's clues, about half a day's walk south of Sego Castle, there is a witch who can brew shapeshifting potions.

The so-called transformation potion is, of course, capable of changing the form of the person who drinks it.

It can be transformed into a specific plant or animal, and top-tier transformation potions can even transform it into a dragon or some mythical creature.

Of course, the higher the level of the potion, the shorter its duration.

Conversely, some low-level transformation potions can permanently alter a person's form.

For example, turning ordinary people into mice or frogs.

"Ordinary people? Besides witches who can wield supernatural powers in human form, are there other superpowered individuals in this world?" Wu Wang asked Wang Xianzhi, looking at the markings on the map.

The other party nodded directly.

He then pointed at Wu Wang's face and said, "Aren't you one yourself?"

"The Witcher's signature features are white hair and amber cat eyes. You don't think this is a wig and colored contact lenses, do you?"

"This must be a genetic mutation of some kind of specific force."

"Your overall stats far exceed those of ordinary people, and your tolerance to poison is such that you can drink a drug that could kill an elephant in one gulp."

"Take the shapeshifting witch you're planning to find, for example. You could probably drink her low-level potions like they're a beverage."

"Haven't you tried entering the dungeon yourself these past few days?"

Wu Wang remained silent, focusing solely on his journey.

What's the point of him trying?!

Since I am already immortal, why would I care about being resistant to poison?

He wouldn't hesitate to gulp down any drug that could kill an elephant, let alone a drug that could kill a blue whale.

"But as for gene mutations... I feel they are also related to heredity."

"In other words, Jessie's mother or one of her elders was a witcher, which is why this mutation happened to her."

"Did he inherit both the identities of a druid and a witcher?"

Thinking this way, Wu Wang believed that his speculations about this instance were more accurate.

When he heard Wang Xianzhi say that every once in a while, new and old players would meet up.

I immediately realized a problem—

The difficulty of the dungeons will increase!
Because every player will try their best to change how exciting the story is.

If this continues, by the time a player enters the instance, the world will have already been changed to be strange and bizarre enough by the previous players.

He will find himself completely at a loss as to how to change the story.

Because no matter how bizarre or wonderful the change may be, it has already been tried by predecessors.

At that time, the instance will be equivalent to a dead save file in the game.

After that, every player who entered the instance was simply waiting for pure torment.

They were wiped out in the instance 72 hours after they foresaw the next unlucky victim.

In other words, the description of this copy is actually a trap.

The real key is not in how to make it exciting.

The key lies in finding the trick to ending the story.

"How many points do you have now?" Wu Wang asked Wang Xianzhi.

The problem of integrals should have been a secret.

After all, this is a solo competitive instance, and everyone's goal is to get first place on the leaderboard.

Concealing one's true score is a crucial step. However, after a moment's thought, Wang Xianzhi simply said, "Five hundred and thirty-six."

"But if you die, these scores are meaningless."

Snapped--

Wu Wang snapped his fingers.

Just when I was about to say something.

In the distance, a vast expanse of black carpet appeared.

It stands out starkly against the backdrop of this barren landscape, which is filled with either lush greenery or withered yellow leaves.

The black carpet seemed to writhe incessantly, as if it were alive, and surged toward the two people like a tide.

Wang Xianzhi's pupils suddenly contracted.

He shouted, "It's a swarm of rats! We've entered the territory of the Shapeshifting Witch!"

Actually, Wu Wang had already noticed it even without her saying so.

The writhing black carpet was a dense mass of countless large black rats piled together, each with an eerie glint in its eyes as if it wanted to tear apart every living thing within its sight.

The pollution demon's breathing also became rapid.

As the saying goes, "Many ants can kill an elephant."

Even if it is born as a wild beast at the top of the food chain.

Even facing a seemingly endless swarm of ground squirrels, one's limbs tremble.

"I'll die! I'll definitely die!" This was the only thought in the mind of the Corruption Demon.

However, Wang Xianzhi had barely finished speaking when...

Her robes also came undone.

The backpack equipment flashed by.

Wang Xianzhi, who was originally dressed like a noble lady, suddenly became a stranger.

At least, she looks like a stranger to the whole world now.

At this moment, Wang Xianzhi was completely covered in blue and white metal mecha. His chest armor was covered with countless strange alloy scales that undulated at a glance. The layered design of his shoulder armor also had some kind of translucent substance that looked like bionic muscle fibers pulsating. His silver-white mask maintained a smile that was not quite a smile.

It has a futuristic, technological feel that would be surprising even in the Middle Ages.

Even in modern times, it would be hard to believe that this mecha suit is real.

ka ka ka-

As the rat swarm approached, the mecha on Wang Xianzhi's body emitted the grinding sound of gears meshing.

An unknown engine propelled her figure slowly upwards into the sky.

A dark gun barrel rose from each of his arms.

Its back is adorned with wings that resemble those of an angel.

The only difference is that her wings don't have feathers.

Instead, they were small missiles that appeared to be flattened.

"Justice from heaven!"

The feather-like missiles swept over the swarm of rats in a saturation attack.

Bullets were being poured from the muzzles of Wang Xianzhi's guns on both sides of his arms as if they were free.

The barrage of comments that formed in an instant brought the rat swarm to a complete halt.

The pollution demon, who had lived most of its life in the forest, had never seen such a war machine before.

The deafening roar in his ears, the small mushroom clouds rising in front of him, and the numerous craters all stimulated the Corruption Demon's nerve cells, causing him to immediately lie prone on the ground, covering his ears with his forelimbs and closing his eyes, completely unable to bear watching any longer.

Wu Wang was also stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

"Holy crap! Is this the same style as ours?"

"Why is it launching an attack in Gundam form right here?"

"Hey! Where's the game GM?! This is cheating and you're not going to do anything about it? At least deduct some reputation points!"

Although every advanced player will deliberately advance their skills and equipment in a certain direction.

For example, the Xie Zhi specializes in soul-based skills, while Ying Luo specializes in combat skills, and so on.

But Wu Wang has never seen anyone whose specialty is the future of technology.

Is this really the kind of equipment that a game like "Disaster" can provide?

You want to use laser cannons to shoot cavemen, huh?
Under Wang Xianzhi's barrage of bullets, he had absolutely no chance to retaliate...

In reality, they don't have the ability to take action.

After all, Wu Wang did lack such a wide-ranging attack method.

After bombarding for half a minute in a row.

Wang Xianzhi let out a long sigh and slowly fell from mid-air.

The metal wings fell off like unloading ammunition pouches, and the muzzles of the guns on both arms turned red, distorting the view. Clearly, the muzzle temperature was terrifyingly high at that moment.

"Phew...that was a truly exhilarating battle."

Watching Wang Xianzhi retract his blue and white armor, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand.

Wu Wang unconsciously looked at the wasteland in front of him, which had been almost completely flattened and sunk a large section of the land.

He couldn't help but say, "What the hell does this have to do with the battle? This isn't just a one-sided stomp! Where did you buy that mech? Did you get a discount if you knew someone there?"

Finally, I saw a hint of surprise on this guy's face.

Wang Xianzhi proudly said with his hands on his hips, "You can't buy this. This is an armed mech that I built over several years using materials I obtained from various technology-oriented dungeons."

"Normally there are no occasions where it can be fully utilized, so it's perfect for use in this kind of wilderness combat."

She said she was going to give it her all, but you could tell from the smirk on her face that even an AK couldn't suppress.

This futuristic armor could definitely be made even more.

This is a weapon designed specifically for war!
Wu Wang: "..."

Fortunately, his ability to learn is also extraordinary.

After quickly composing himself, he turned his gaze toward the direction from which the rat swarm had come.

Wang Xianzhi naturally understood what he was thinking.

The rat swarm doesn't rampage across the wasteland for no reason; this is also the territory of the shapeshifting witch.

It seems something happened to that witch.

Driven by curiosity, and also because Wu Wang's purpose in coming here was to find the shapeshifting witch to verify something, the two were also drawn by curiosity.

They quickly headed in the designated direction.

Soon after, they arrived at a cabin in the woods.

It looks similar to the small wooden house where Wu Wang first entered the instance.

The only difference is that the hut is surrounded by animal specimens.

It was as if a shapeshifting witch was showing off her achievements.

Because these animal specimens may not have originally been animals...

The two had not yet approached to observe.

They then discovered a woman dressed in a black robe collapsed at the gate.

His whole body was trembling, and he was making painful whimpering sounds. His eyes were rolling back and he was foaming at the mouth. He looked like he was about to die.

Beside her was a witch's hat that had fallen into a puddle and was getting wet with sewage.

Clearly, this person is very likely the shapeshifting witch they are looking for.

"The shapeshifting witch was attacked in her own territory?" Wang Xianzhi speculated. "That's why the rat swarm went out of control and went berserk?"

She stepped forward, ready to observe more closely.

Wu Wang reached out and blocked her path.

He shook his head and said, "The shapeshifting witch can use potions to turn people into animals, so what if she can also use potions to turn animals into people?"

After saying that, he took out a bag from his backpack that had the words "Poison Rat Poison" written on it.

He said in a serious tone, "I don't think she's a real person. Here's what we'll do: you feed her a packet of rat poison. If she dies, it's because she's a rat."

The black lines on Wang Xianzhi's face were impossible to erase.

What utter nonsense logic!

What does it mean that something killed by rat poison is a rat?

People would die if they ate rat poison!

She finally saw it.

Whatever verification Wu Wang intended to do, he certainly wasn't there to have a friendly conversation with the shapeshifting witch.

This jinx is here to torment the other person...
