All-out Horror Survival: My Awakening Skill Point Allocation Sequence!
Chapter 103 Black Pool
Han Daoyuan stared at the dissipating giant pillar of lightning in the sky, his eyes filled with excitement and a sense of bewilderment.
It's true that some plants can be reborn after such a devastating lightning strike.
What I remember in those books is actually not myth or legend, but reality!
"Han Daoyuan, how exactly do we retrieve this lightning-struck wood?"
Hearing Zheng Sheng urge him again, Han Daoyuan quickly came back to his senses.
He lowered his head and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, revealing his guess.
"These situations are complicated. Professor Bai is right. If we want to retrieve this lightning-struck wood, someone from the snail farm also needs to go to the white fish eye."
"Based on the principle of mutual generation of Yin and Yang in Tai Chi."
"This peach grove absorbed a lot of the sun's essence and was originally an extremely yang place. However, due to the large-scale felling of peach trees and the deaths of many people, the resentment polluted this blessed land, and all the yang energy was concentrated in that lightning-struck tree."
"In contrast, the snail farm, where billions of snails died, was an extremely yin place. Due to the changes in the peach orchard, some yang energy converged here, which instead concentrated all the yin energy in the silt-clearing pond."
"There must have been an extremely yin entity born inside the pool!"
"The peach grove looks dangerous, surrounded by tens of thousands of ghost peach trees, but actually Black Fish Eye is the safest place."
"The snail farm may look safe, but the dredging pond is actually the most dangerous and terrifying place!"
Han Daoyuan looked at Zheng Sheng.
"Thunder in broad daylight, evil spirits at night."
"The best time to break the formation is when Yin and Yang converge."
"Captain Zheng, if you want to retrieve the lightning-struck wood, you must do so at the juncture of Yin and Yang, at dawn!"
Bai Jing glanced at Han Daoyuan with some surprise, and suddenly became very interested in Taoist theology.
"Interesting. I didn't expect that you would come to the exact same conclusion as me after only taking a few glances."
"It seems I need to study theology more in the future."
Bai Jing looked at Zheng Sheng and continued.
"In that peach grove, this lightning-struck tree and the lightning peach were born; and beneath this black pool, a black conch was also born."
"There seems to be some kind of connection between the two. I tried to take the black snail out of the pond, but it didn't work out."
The settlement initially had several thousand people, but during the attempt to retrieve the black conch, over 70% of them died and were transformed into conch demons, ultimately forcing them to abandon the effort.
Bai Jing continued, "If I'm not mistaken, to take that black conch, we have to retrieve it along with the thunder peaches from the peach grove."
"That's why I invited you here – I'd like to collaborate with you."
Seeing that Zheng Sheng was still hesitant, Bai Jing pushed up his glasses and said again.
"I have already used instruments to detect that the magnetic fields in these two areas are constantly merging, and it seems that something is being conceived."
"Based on my recent research into the supernatural, I've already come to a guess."
"Both this thunder peach and this black conch are actually part of the birth of a strange entity. Once they are fully formed, a truly terrifying monster will likely be born here!"
"If I hadn't met you, I would have left this place three days later!"
"How about it, want to team up with me? This is a rare opportunity."
Bai Jing extended her hand, a smile spreading across her face.
"You take the lightning-struck wood and the lightning peach, and I'll go down to the silt-clearing pool to get the black snails."
Zheng Sheng did not immediately accept Bai Jing's invitation.
This Professor Bai gave me a very different feeling.
The other party remained calm and confident throughout, seemingly unafraid of the bizarre, a stark contrast to the other survivors.
Moreover, he always felt that the other party was hiding something from him.
"System, how many survival points do I need to add to him?"
[Ding, consume 10000 survival points to strengthen Awakened Bai Jing?]
"No need, I was just asking."
After silently reciting the mantra, Zheng Sheng's gaze towards Bai Jing noticeably changed.
10000 survival points?
What's wrong with this guy? Why does he need so many survival points?
For a normal Sequence Awakener, isn't it enough to just 3000 points to advance their Sequence level once?
Why does this guy need 10000 points?
Besides, he just arrived in the survival world, why does he need so much?
Since they weren't teammates, he couldn't view Bai Jing's attribute panel at all; he could only get a general idea of the opponent's situation by allocating attribute points.
This result was clearly unexpected.
"Alright, then let's have a pleasant collaboration!"
Zheng Sheng hesitated for only a moment before quickly agreeing to cooperate with Bai Jing.
He was determined to get both the lightning-struck wood and the lightning peach!
My previous hesitation stemmed from the feeling that Bai Jing, as a newcomer, didn't want to cooperate with the weak.
Now that he was certain that Bai Jing was no ordinary person, he felt somewhat relieved.
Partnering with the strong increases the chances of success!
The two quickly reached an agreement and began discussing the details of the plan, preparing for the next day.
As Han Daoyuan just said, the best time to break the formation is at the intersection of Yin and Yang, at dawn.
Therefore, they had to wait until dawn the next day before they could take action.
"Captain Zheng, the snail farm is the territory of the snail demon, so it's relatively safe and no strange things will come here. You can rest in the dormitory building for a while."
"Remember, never wander around at night. Those snail demons will come out of the dark pool, and they will attack people without special preparation."
After giving his instructions, Bai Jing left with his men, leaving only two girls behind. He then led Zheng Sheng and the others to a dormitory.
Soon, night fell.
Zheng Sheng and the others dared not fall asleep, after all, this was not the Survival Highway, but a city inhabited by humans.
Everyone was lying on their bunk beds in the dormitory building, pretending to be asleep.
Suddenly, a lot of rustling sounds came from outside, as if many things were crawling.
Everyone was instantly awakened and looked out the window.
All I could see was the red moon.
The entire snail farm was teeming with giant white snails—on the ground, on the walls, on the roof…
They were entirely white, with human faces, long necks like mollusks, and tall antennae on their heads.
From a distance, it looks like a person whose hand has been cut off and stuffed into a snail shell, wriggling on the ground.
Every Tianluo person wore an exaggerated smile, rolled their eyes, and swayed their neck back and forth.
The sheer number of them made everyone's scalp tingle, and they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Moreover, wherever the snails crawl, they leave behind a layer of white, paint-like slime, which is why the entire snail farm is white.
Zheng Sheng looked towards Black Pool again.
Black water kept bubbling up from the black pool, and snail demons kept crawling out of it, their numbers increasing.
"Captain, look, it's Professor Bai!" Luo Hao suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.
Zheng Sheng looked in the direction Luo Hao pointed and indeed saw Bai Jing.
He was standing among a dense swarm of snail demons, accompanied by several people dressed in white coats with their faces painted white.
Each of them was carrying a large basin filled with many bright red meatballs, dripping with blood, and it was unclear what they were made of.
A dense swarm of snail demons surrounded Bai Jing, and he appeared to be feeding them.
Through the red moonlight, Zheng Sheng also saw that Professor Bai's head had grown a pair of pale white snail tentacles.
It seems to still be communicating with these snail demons.
This bizarre scene sent a chill down Zheng Sheng's spine.
