Sorry, I don't play poker on luck

[March 28]: A very strange thing happened this morning, the entire base was suddenly shrouded in inexplicable black smoke, but it dissipated quickly.

[March 29th]: While having lunch, I heard some news about the strange black smoke yesterday. It seems that it was caused by the failure of Li Chou in the E area.

[March 30th]: I heard that due to the incident the day before yesterday, Li Chou was fired. Congratulations, the average appearance of the base has been raised a lot.

[March 31]: The team leader fell ill, and finally did not have to go to work today, and went to the city to play.

[April 1]: Yesterday, I may have had too much waves, my body was weak, and I had a little fever.

[April 2]: The condition worsened, I was bedridden, and even had hallucinations. When my colleague came to deliver my meal, I saw his face as braised pork.

[April 3rd]: The workmanship in the cafeteria has dropped significantly, and the food has become more and more unpalatable.

[April 4th]: The food is unpalatable.

[April 5th]: The food is unpalatable.

[April 6]: The food is unpalatable.

[April 7th]: Hmm~ It's delicious!

The diary is written here, and there is no more.

In the next few days, this person returned to the previous hydrographic style.

On the last line, the font is crooked.

"..."

Mushroom's hand was still in the motion of turning the page.

It froze like this for a while, then it suddenly turned back to the previous page and started from scratch.

"This...is not right."

"The surname is Li and ugly, isn't that the guy?"

"He has been fired? Then why is he still in the base!"

Looking at the date again, it is basically the same as the date of the outbreak of the beast.

And the three of them were led here by the mission line, could it be that...

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt.

"What are you looking at, grass."

"Wow, ah, mushrooms!"

The sudden voice from behind scared Mushroom so much that it almost lost its soul.

"You, you, you are not dead?!"

As soon as it turned around, it saw the straw man standing there intact.

The Beast Dog followed behind it.

"Run away, grass."

The straw man proudly raised the fire extinguisher in his hand.

Just now it ran and put infinite dry ice, which blocked the beasts' sight and sense of smell.

Then I went around in a circle, ran away from the right fork, and ran back from the left fork.

"You came just in time, let's go find Shi Li quickly!"

"He might be in danger, Mushroom!"

Mushroom grabbed the straw man and ran towards the E area.

...

At this point, experiment with Zone E.

"Trouble, something went wrong."

On the other side, Dr. Li walked out of the computer room with a face full of embarrassment.

"what's the situation?"

Shi Li heard the sound and walked in.

Seeing the progress bar on the screen, it suddenly stayed at 99%.

If he remembered correctly, it was about 5 minutes ago.

"I didn't expect the last step of calculation to be stuck."

"Then what to do."

"I guess there is something wrong with the line hardware at the terminal. It seems that we have to go and check it. It's in the equipment library at the end of Area E."

Dr. Li motioned for Shi Li to follow him and walked to the depths of Area E.

"..."

Shi Li looked at the opponent's back and paused for 1 second. But still followed.

"Brother Shi Li, I really envy you for being so handsome."

As I was walking, Dr. Li suddenly had such a conversation.

"Where, where."

Always be humble.

"Everywhere is handsome."

Dr. Li turned his head to look at him carefully, then looked away and said, "And your red-headed friend also makes me envious."

"?"

Li was taken aback when he said this.

Red head, do you mean mushrooms?

Didn't Dr. Li say it was ugly before?

"His self-confidence makes me envious. Even though he looks so ugly, he can still live with such confidence."

"..., if he hears this, I guess you two can only live as one today."

"Of course, the most handsome one among you is the one in green. If only I had him 1/10."

"..., I suspect that you were scolding me when you praised me for being handsome just now."

During the conversation, the two came to the end of the corridor.

This is also the deepest part of the E area.

Standing in front of them was a huge iron gate.

The two metal leaves on the left and right are 10 meters high and 4 meters wide. They look thick and heavy, and they are definitely not the kind that can be kicked open.

Puff blah blah...

At this moment, there was a sound of electricity from the ceiling.

Snapped! xN

A few overhead lights suddenly went out.

As the light dimmed, the atmosphere seemed to change as well.

Dr. Li stopped in his tracks, trembling slightly.

That hand pressed against his head through the protective suit and glass hood, and it looked like he was having a headache.

"Do you know what my nickname is among my colleagues?"

"Li Chou, isn't it very appropriate, hahaha."

With his back turned, Shi Li said such a sentence inexplicably, and his tone was weird.

"You must have never experienced it, being pointed at all day long."

"However, what is even more unbearable than this is the self-righteous pity eyes of those people."

These two sentences resulted in Shi Li's brief silence.

Needless to say, he really experienced it.

At this time, Dr. Li's face gradually showed a madness, and he turned around slowly, revealing those dark eyes: "So I once secretly swore that I must let those good-looking people pay for it..."

Boom!

However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted, and he saw an iron rod smashed towards his head and face.

Bang!

The thick glass cover was shattered all over the place.

"You, what are you doing?!"

Dr. Li fell to the ground with a look of surprise.

The blackness in his eyes has subsided, as if he has become more awake.

But soon, the expression showed struggle, and the black covered it again.

The strange thing is that a few shards of glass stuck on his face, and there was no blue light seeping out of blood at all.

"I've seen something wrong with you for a long time."

Shi Li walked up to the opponent holding the iron rod.

With a condescending view, you can see a little part of the protective clothing below the neckline.

I saw that Dr. Li's exposed part below the neck was actually skinless, revealing dense muscle fibers!

Obviously, this is out of the normal state.

The reason why he was aware of it all the time was because he just found those sets of protective clothing and played with them in his free time.

It was found that this thing is heavy enough, and it is not a weight that humans can easily handle.

Even if I have the bonus of LV1 player physique + [Iron Rod], it is quite difficult.

And Dr. Li can still walk around freely wearing it, which is very strange.

Coupled with the all-black binoculars, now it seems that this guy is really not human.

There is no doubt that he must be a key figure in this quest line.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be able to find out."

"Huhuhuhuhu..."

At this time, Dr. Li smiled evilly, and the blackness in his eyes was like smoke, getting thicker and thicker.

"In that case..."

"Stop rambling."

Boom!

"You... can you let me talk first..."

"cannot."

Boom!

"Damn! You give me..."

"Shut up."

Boom!

"Ouch!"

Boom!

Shi Li originally kept his hand, but the more he knocked, the more he found that this guy's head was harder than a strengthened beast.

After knocking so many sticks, the tone is still lively.

His own hands are a little tired.

[Wow! 】

At this moment, he suddenly heard the barking of the beast dog behind him, less than 10 meters away.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

While knocking, Shi Li turned his head to ask.

Just out of the corner of my eye, I saw Mushroom mushrooms also appearing from the other end of the corridor, followed by the straw man.

"Be careful! Mushroom!"

"That guy has a problem, be careful not to...knock him to death? Huh?"

Originally it wanted to remind Dr. Li to be careful.

Seeing that the other party was being ravaged by Shi Li's iron rod, he unconsciously changed his words.

"Why are you here?"

"Enough!!! Aww!!!"

Taking advantage of Shi Li's distraction, Dr. Li let out a roar like a roar.

I saw him pull down the disassembly valve of the protective suit and get out of it in an instant.

Sure enough, except for the parts above the neck, his whole body has lost the skin, only muscle fibers, which is no different from strengthening a beast.

Struggling to stand up against a strong sense of dizziness, Dr. Li rushed to the door and tapped the button to open the door.

rumbling rumbling...

Two metal doors slowly opened from left and right, revealing the scene inside.

"..."

Only then did Shi Li realize that the equipment warehouse behind the door was not at all what Dr. Li said.

It was full of beasts that were as still as puppets, and all of them were strengthened beasts.

This number is at least one hundred or more.

Their eyes, like Dr. Lee's, are completely black.

"That's too much, Mushroom!"

"Stay north, grass."

Mushroom and the straw man were also taken aback.

But what was even worse was that there was a roar from behind at this moment.

【Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! 】xN

A bunch of ordinary and enhanced beasts came from their only escape route.

Just at this moment, a mission panel popped up in front of them.

【Mission change】

【Explore H International Group Experimental Base-0/1】

↓

[Defeat Dr. Lee - 0/1]

Mushroom: "How can this kind of task be completed! Mushroom!"

The grass man: "It's over, grass."

Shi Li: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5..."

Mushroom: "Are you counting the number of enemies?"

Shi Li: "No, I'm counting how many cards I can draw when I go out later."

Mushroom, straw man: "..." x2

What a joke, they might not be able to beat four or five of the strengthened beasts at the same time.

Now there are more than a hundred of them, how can they play.

However, there is no unparalleled road, and at this moment, the surrounding time and space suddenly froze.

Phew... buzz!

A blue beam of light descended from the sky and began to spread out on the card table.

[Beast Dog has temporarily joined your deck and can be called]

The Beast Dog turned into a card and floated in front of them.

"There is hope to be saved, Guguda!"

Mushrooms raised their hands and cheered.

A huge Blu-ray poker table took shape, and their side was no different from before, still 9+3.

But the enemy's grooves have increased, from 1 row to 2 rows.

"I will use this card, and the rest will follow the previous one."

Immediately took over [Beast Dog].

His idle [Iron Rod] was used for fusion, and it happened to be topped with [Beast Dog].

call out! x6

The beasts in the rear turned into beams of light and landed on the card table.

【Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! 】x6

The projections of the 6 beasts just stood up from their cards.

In addition to the [Ordinary Beast] that I have seen, there is also a new card.

【Strengthen Beast】

Berserk, Attack 15, 30/30

[Flesh-eating-Passive]: Enhanced beasts attack human-type cards to add an additional 5 points of damage

"These [Enhanced Beasts] are not easy to deal with, the value is much stronger than [Ordinary Beasts]."

"And it's a special attack card, which is specially targeted at the special attack of humanoid cards."

Mushroom mushrooms expressed their concerns.

There are 4 humanoid cards in their deck: [Kung Fu Sheep] [Cheer Mushroom] [Rogue Mushroom] [Rogue Mushroom]

"It's okay, the main tactics remain the same, let's just adjust the position a little bit."

Don't worry about it right now.

Soon, under his command, everyone set up their respective cards.

【Burning Tire】【Burning Table】【Burning Garbage】

【Sorrowful Dog】【Bubble Mushroom】【Vacant Seat】

【Mushroom】【Mushroom】【Fat Cat】

【Yangniang】【Mushroom】【Ranmen】

If the [Strengthened Beast] on the opposite side wants to attack humanoid cards, at least two rows of their cards must be cleared.

When that time really comes, it is estimated that they themselves will also be wiped out.

[Aww! 】xN

[Robbery, Mushroom! 】

【You look so beautiful~ Mushroom! 】

[Baa Zha~! 】

【come on! come on! 】

After the action was confirmed, the projections on both sides fought chaotically.

Shili had sufficient firepower on their side, and they cleared 6 beast cards in one round.

However, new beasts quickly added from behind them, but none of the beasts on Dr. Li's side moved.

After a few rounds like this, the group of beasts behind them were completely wiped out.

And under Shi Li's command, they only lost a piece of [Burning Trash].

"After clearing these guys, it should be their turn."

Mushroom looks at those black-eyed strengthened beasts, these things are the big ones.

At this time, Dr. Li was frozen in space, standing among these nearly a hundred beasts.

hum!

But the next second after its words fell, it thawed unexpectedly.

And not only is Dr. Li thawed out, but... all of them are thawed out!

"What's the situation? The game is over?"

This froze it.

"No, not yet."

Shili found that the blue light on the poker table still exists.

"Could it be, this time we're going to [a group of strengthened beasts]?"

Mushroom recalled the scene of the last PVE game.

At that time, the last group of beasts swarmed up and synthesized a card.

But these are all strengthened beasts, if they are fused into [a group of strengthened beasts], then it's okay?

"If that's the case, it's good news."

"One card is much easier to deal with than multiple cards."

Shi Li said so.

But for some reason, he always had some bad premonitions.

At this time, Dr. Li's eyes were completely black, and he looked crazy.

"Move, all move!"

He commanded loudly.
