Zhou Hao opened the pull tab and threw it at the Demon King. Damn it! It was thrown right into his petal mouth. Then he dragged Hope away quickly, and bang! The grenade exploded with a huge fire.
Petal Face was blown to pieces on the spot, but the scorching flames did not extinguish but burned more and more on the Demon King until it was carbonized.
What surprised Zhou Hao and Hope was that the flames that exploded did not ignite the woods, but slowly extinguished. This world was a little different from theirs.
However, all the other demon dog corpses on the ground were burned.
"Damn! If I had known it was so easy, I could just use ordinary grenades. There are only a dozen thermite grenades in his storage space. They are used to deal with zombies, but I haven't used them yet." Zhou Hao cursed in his heart
I am too superstitious about my own skills. Things that can obviously be solved with weapons may be easier to solve by throwing a thermite grenade just now.
But there was someone beside him, so it was difficult to take out too many grenades.
Hope: "This place is too weird. Let's find Will and leave!"
This is what Zhou Hao wants to say. The most powerful monster here is not the devil, let alone the devil dog, but the shadow monster with six towering legs.
It is called the Mind Flayer, and it should be the god of the Counter World. It can control all creatures in the Counter World, including vines everywhere, and can even control humans, so it is called the Mind Flayer!
Of course, the control method is similar to parasitism, which is very disgusting anyway. That thing is the ultimate BOSS, so it is best not to touch it.
Then the two of them successfully walked out of the woods and onto the road without encountering any more monsters. This made Zhou Hao a little strange. Could it be that the town was gone after he killed these few monsters?
But when they just set foot on the road, Zhou Hao heard a deep voice ringing in his ears: "Help me..."
"Who?" Zhou Hao blurted out, the voice seemed to be ringing in his ears. He looked around warily, and there was no one except the confused Hope.
Hope was surprised and said: "What?"
"It seemed like someone was talking to me just now, didn't you hear it?"
Hope was even more confused and said: "No, I didn't hear anything! Could it be that you were hallucinating because you breathed the air here?"
This guy has a very rich imagination, but Xiaoyu once said that it has no influence on him. Zhou Hao completely trusts Xiaoyu.
He scratched his head and said in his mind: "Xiaoyu, are you sure the environment here has no impact on me? I really want to have auditory hallucinations?"
Xiaoyu said calmly: "You don't have auditory hallucinations. This is not transmitted by sound. It is a force of thought, or an obsession that is asking you for help. Because I am soul bound to you, I can also hear it, and others can hear it."
Not even there!”
Zhou Hao: "Why do you ask me for help alone?"
Xiaoyu: "It wanted to ask Hope for help, but Hope's soul strength couldn't receive the signal at all."
"Okay, then do you know where this obsession comes from?"
Xiaoyu: "You can know the general direction, but this world is very dangerous. You'd better not wander in. What if it's a trap?"
After hearing what Xiaoyu said, Zhou Hao couldn't make up his mind, so he might as well rescue Will first.
The two walked along the road for ten minutes and arrived at Will's house. Hope's breathing was a little uneven. This guy didn't seem to exercise much. You can tell by looking at his big belly.
"Asshole, everything here is the same as Hawkins, why isn't there a car?" Hope complained.
Zhou Hao smiled and said: "It's time for you to exercise. At least you can run away from monsters."
Hope rolled her eyes: "You are the best, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.!" He walked in first with his gun raised.
How should I put it, although the house is the same as in the real world, the overall condition is that it is in disrepair, and there are many disgusting vines wrapped around the walls of the room.
They knew that these vines were alive, so they were a little creepy when they walked in the middle. As soon as they entered the living room, they saw Will being firmly tied to the wall by vines, and there was also a vine inserted into his mouth.
It’s over! It’s too late, Zhou Hao knew that Will had been parasitized, choked! Chi Xiao unsheathed again, and a light red light flashed
The vines wrapped around Will were all cut off.
"Poor Will..." Hope stepped forward and supported Will, then carefully pulled out the vine from his mouth, then touched the carotid artery and found that he could no longer feel the pulse.
Already.
He immediately took off his hood and performed CPR on Will. Looking at his anxious look, you could tell that he was really worried and not just going through the motions.
"Will! Come on..."
"wake up!"
"Will..."
Hope kept shouting. In fact, he knew that there was no point in talking at this time, but he still hoped that if Will could hear it, it would stimulate his will to survive.
Zhou Hao took out a resurrection pill, pushed Hope away, then held up Will's head and fed him. The resurrection pill melted in his mouth and flowed into Will's gastric juice.
Hope said angrily: "What are you doing? His body is still warm, he should have a chance..."
Ahem! Before Hope could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Will's violent coughing.
"Who are you? Where am I?" Will said weakly.
It was really weird. Only then did Zhou Hao remember that this was not how he survived after missing for more than a month instead of just a few days in the original plot.
Maybe the vines stabbed into his throat were not killing him but slowly infusing him with nutrient solution to keep him alive, and the shock state should also reduce the consumption of his body.
This allowed him to persist in this environment for so long. Of course, this does not mean that the Mind Flayer is good. The main reason is that it is useful for him to keep Will, who should have been parasitically controlled by him now.
Hope said in surprise: "Will, I am Sheriff Hope, and I am here to rescue you. Let's leave here now. Your mother and brother are very worried about you."
Will nodded in confusion. He broke away from Zhou Hao's arms and hugged Hope. Hope didn't care. After all, Zhou Hao was also new here, and the children must know him as the police chief.
Zhou Hao glanced at Will thoughtfully, and Xiaoyu said at this time: "There is something parasitic in this child's body. The resurrection pill just now seems to have made that thing a little weak."
The Resurrection Pill is made of blood orchid as the main material. It is useful to almost all living creatures, but it actually harms it. This shows that the creatures in this world cannot be treated with common sense.
Hope carried Will on his back, and the three of them returned to the exit along the same route without encountering any obstructions along the way. This further confirmed Zhou Hao's guess that Will was deliberately released by the Mind Flayer.
And he heard many distress messages intermittently along the way, which made him want to follow the sound and take a look. He brought his own armor in the storage space so that he could quickly dress up if he encountered danger.
So he asked Hope to take Will and leave first, while he himself was going to find out.
He also has a Hummer and a motorcycle in his storage space, but he has no plans to use them because too much noise may attract more monsters.
In front of the small town police station is the center of the entire town, where a huge creature is occupying at the moment.
This is a six-legged shadow monster. Each of its legs is nearly a hundred meters tall. Its entire body seems to be made of black smoke. If Zhou Hao sees it, he will recognize it. This is the heart-stealing monster he does not want to see.
