Calamity Island: Endless Trials

Chapter 4 The First Victim

"Transmitting..."

"The newcomer protection was established, the difficulty of the trial scene was reduced, and the transmission was successful."

"System prompt: You have entered the trial destination [Moon Howl Town]. The current time is 12 noon."

"Trial time: four days."

"Trial mission: Kill 12 werewolves in Moon Howl Town. After the trial period ends, if the number of werewolves killed is greater than the number of surviving players, the trial will pass."

"Mission brief introduction: This is Yuehao Town, a small town in the wilderness. It was originally a small town with only 4000 to [-] people, but hundreds of years have passed, and other villages and towns in the wilderness have been burned and killed by horse bandits. , only Moon Howl Town, no one dared to mess with. So, Moon Howl Town gradually became the only town in the wilderness, and it was also a big town with a population of tens of thousands."

"In Yuehao Town, every five years, there will be a blood moon night. Every blood moon night and the first three nights, a werewolf will appear in the town, endangering the lives of the townspeople. The next blood moon night is approaching, and they will hire outlaws and bounty hunters in the wilderness to enter the town to hunt werewolves and protect the safety of the townspeople. The identity of each trial is the bounty hunter hired by the mayor."

"System warning: Please abide by the rules. It is forbidden to disclose all unreasonable information such as taverns, trials, and the original world in the copy. Those who disobey will be punished!"

Tang Jiumin felt his consciousness sink, and when he woke up again, he found that the surrounding scene had changed, and the above cold mechanical sound could be heard in his ears.

He looked up and looked around, the scene changed, and now they seemed to be in an alley, surrounded by rough stone walls, and looking up, they were surrounded by houses with two or three storeys.

The ground is not the kind of masonry or cement that he used to live, but untreated sand and gravel. At the entrance of the alley, you can vaguely see the street outside, which is also a sand and gravel ground.

Including him, a total of [-] so-called players are currently coming to their senses one by one.

And these people...

"God, why am I dressed like this? Western cowboy?"

"Kill werewolves? Damn, are there werewolves in this world?"

"Where is this place, I'm going crazy, what the hell is this place..."

All twelve players woke up, all of them were the people from the tavern. As a result, they found that everyone's attire had changed. Before, they were dressed in a variety of styles, but now they are all wearing denim clothes.

And at this moment, there was the sound of horse hooves at the entrance of the alley.

"Someone is here." Tang Jiumin reminded.

Tang Jiumin looked out at the end of the alley and saw a man on a horse stopped.

The twelve of them appeared deep in an alley, and the light was a little dim.

"what?"

Following Tang Jiumin's reminder, a group of people raised their heads and looked outside.

At the entrance of the alley, the man who stopped the horse fell to the ground. The other party was wearing a cowboy jacket and a leather jacket, but it was different from the players, and he had a gun on his waist.

"Hey, I'm the sheriff of town, what are you doing here? Lost?"

When Liu Ziyun saw the gun on the other side's waist, he was instantly alert. With his right hand facing the person who came, he took out the pistol in his backpack.

The others were also very nervous, but their reaction was too poor, except for the second generation of rich who also imitated Liu Ziyun's movements, and the rich businessman Chen Min leaned towards the darkest place in the corner, the others stayed where they were, not knowing what to do. measures.

"Who, who is he?"

The female college student swallowed nervously. From entering the tavern to the present, she was the one who was under the most pressure. First, she knew that she was dead, and then the prisoner held a gun to her head, which made her tremble until now.

"He said that he is a sheriff. This place should be similar to the nineteenth century in the West. This person should be the sheriff of the small town."

The second-generation rich answered her. He was more adaptable than most people, and even had the time to observe carefully.

"Sheriff? What do you mean?" When the rich second generation said that the person was a sheriff, many people around him moved slightly.

Immediately afterwards, they heard Fu Erdai reply: "The sheriff is the police here."

police?

The middle-aged woman who had been in a trance since the teleportation came in suddenly shuddered, and there was a light called hope in her eyes.

"Comrade police, please help me!" The middle-aged woman suddenly burst out at her fastest speed and ran to the sheriff, making Liu Ziyun not even able to stop it.

The middle-aged woman ran to the sheriff.

The other party said: "You..."

"Comrade police, please do yourself a favor and save us! We were inexplicably locked in a tavern with no doors around, and there was a weird robot there. We must complete the mission to survive!"

"Comrade police, I don't want to complete any tasks, I don't want to kill twelve werewolves, please save me, let me get out of here, please, my children are still waiting for me at home..."

Ah this?

The people in the back looked at the middle-aged woman rushing up and begging bitterly, and many people looked shocked.

Didn't the system say that it is forbidden to disclose all unreasonable information such as taverns, trials, the original world, etc., but the middle-aged woman told the sheriff, and the other party was supposed to be the person in the trial. Could it be that what the system warned was false? of?
Just when a group of people were speculating endlessly, the change in front of them once again exceeded common sense.

The surroundings suddenly turned black and white, including the sheriff.

Under the gazes of everyone, the sheriff was like a black and white movie played backwards, returning to the horse according to the original trajectory.

All too soon, what happened in the blink of an eye.

Then the world returned to color.

The sheriff jumped off the horse again, entered the alley, and when he came to the position where he had spoken just now, the sheriff spoke again.

"Hey, I'm the sheriff of town, what are you doing here? Lost?"

While speaking, the sheriff swept over a group of people strangely.

But the players' attention is now not on the sheriff, they look at the middle-aged woman.

Only Tang Jiumin, he glanced at the sheriff quickly, the other party's language didn't sound like any language he knew, but he could fully understand the other party's language.

It seems that the so-called voice pack in the tavern played a role, which is a bit interesting.

The middle-aged woman remained standing still.

"It's nothing..." The middle-aged bald man who woke up Liu Ziyun looked at the middle-aged woman and accidentally muttered what was in his heart.

However, Tang Jiumin on the side found that the middle-aged woman in front of him was abnormal.

Sure enough, less than a second later, the woman's body fell backward, making a dull sound.

This change frightened the others, and frightened the sheriff who came up.

The sheriff, who was relatively relaxed, immediately touched the gun handle on his right waist, and stopped in place.

"What happened to her?" The sheriff stopped, only two or three meters away from the middle-aged woman. He looked at the woman's fallen position in shock and asked the others behind.

Liu Ziyun stepped forward immediately.

The people behind them woke up from a dream and gathered around one after another.

"what happened?"

"I won't die..."

Yes, the system has warned that the middle-aged woman violated the rules, so there was a scene of the sheriff's strange reversal, and now she fell without warning.

Thinking of this, many people have already panicked and confused their minds, and now there is an emotion called fear that is soaring to the sky.

In the pent-up panic of a group of people, although people gathered around, they all looked at the middle-aged women lying on the ground with their eyes closed, and no one dared to reach out.

Except Liu Ziyun.

He put his hand under the middle-aged woman's nose, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, "I'm out of breath."

"Dead, dead?" The two college students took a step back in fright.

Liu Ziyun didn't speak, he then stretched out his hand to open the other's eyelids, only to find that the other's eyes only had the whites of his eyes, but no pupils.

"It is indeed dead." Liu Ziyun's eyes sank and replied in a muffled voice.

Bursts of inhalation.

The sheriff, who had been ignored by this group of people, faced this change, especially when he heard that the woman who suddenly fell down was dead, a suspicious look appeared on his face.

Obviously they were the bounty hunters recruited from their town. The group of bounty hunters in front of them didn't go to the streets to familiarize themselves with the terrain like other bounty hunters. What are they doing here?
Did some of them kill the female bounty hunters on the ground?
The sheriff swept a suspicious glance at everyone here again.

"What are you doing gathered in a dark place?"

In the face of the sheriff's questioning, the players looked at each other in dismay, and no one answered for a while.

something wrong.

The sheriff's expression slowly cooled down, and the revolver attached to his waist slowly pulled out.

As for the timid players, two female college students and two criminals without weapons, they all took a step back.

The second generation of rich subconsciously brought the gun before the sheriff's back in front of him.

The air suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder.

At this moment, Liu Ziyun stood up and picked up the gun in his left hand.

But instead of aiming at the sheriff, he pressed down Fu Erdai's arm with a gun, and pressed the latter's arm with the gun, while the other hand made a stop motion towards the sheriff.

"Don't be impulsive, I'm a police officer and we've just arrived here, but we didn't expect a sudden accident. Our companions were standing here and suddenly fell down."

"Really?" The sheriff's eyes flashed slightly. He saw that Liu Ziyun and the young man beside him were both holding guns, and he weighed it in his heart.

This group of bounty hunters should have been solving personal grievances just now, otherwise they would not have gathered suddenly and lost their lives.

However, these people are all outsiders, and the dead are also outsiders, and they have nothing to do with him.

Thinking of this, he put away his gun and decided to open one eye and close one eye
As the sheriff put away their guns, Liu Ziyun and Fu Erdai also put away their guns, and a group of people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry for the unexpected situation, but you are all bounty hunters invited by our town. Please adjust your status as soon as possible, because next you will face the werewolf that haunts at night."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, werewolves are very powerful, and every time many bounty hunters die in the town."

"Okay, I'm very sorry that your friend suddenly died of illness, but I still have a lot of things to do. Goodbye." After the sheriff finished speaking, he went back to the alley and left without looking back.

The players listened to the sound of horses' hooves getting away, and then began to discuss things about the dungeon.

"What should I do? Listen to the sheriff, there are werewolves in this town. We are going to fight the werewolves?" The female college student said anxiously.

"My gosh, I just love watching those movies, but I can't, how can I beat them, crazy, absolutely crazy here."

"I can't, I really can't, what should I do..."

The faces of the others were not very good-looking. From the previous system voice and the sheriff's words, they understood their origins, and they became so-called bounty hunters.

The middle-aged bald man's face turned pale, and he looked at the middle-aged woman's corpse.

"Are we going to bury her now?"

Chen Min squinted at the bald man who was talking, a little disdainful and dissatisfied.

idiot!Ask this question!Isn't it troublesome enough?

Looking at Liu Ziyun who was a little tangled, Chen Min quickly took over the words.

"There is no way to bury it. The most important thing for us now is to be familiar with the town, as the sheriff said, and the other party mentioned that werewolves are very strong at night. Should we settle down earlier?"

"We don't have much time to waste. The sheriff here can definitely handle the matter of the corpse. If it is buried, do you know where it will be buried?"

Liu Ziyun, who was tangled on the side, frowned. As a policeman, it would be dereliction of duty if he did not protect the people around him.
At this moment, the two criminals suddenly moved towards the alley. When Liu Ziyun noticed it, his face suddenly sank.

"What are you doing?"

"It's nothing, comrade police." A criminal replied with a smiley face: "That ghost system, isn't it to complete the task, let's complete the task."

Liu Ziyun narrowed his eyes slightly, raised the gun in his hand, and aimed it at the criminal who spoke.

The other side shut up, but shrugged.

Another criminal saw it and came out to make a round.

"Officer, now we can say that we are all grasshoppers on a rope, and we all have to complete the task of killing the werewolf. We are no longer the wanted criminals you want to solve, do you think?"

Liu Ziyun did not speak, nor did he put down the gun in his hand.

When the two criminals saw each other's attitude, they couldn't help scolding in their hearts, but there was no hatred for Liu Ziyun on their faces.

"Comrade police, you have also heard the mission, and the sheriff's words, it is very likely to be dangerous at night. If our brothers are with you, you must be worried, right?"

"So let's just act on our own. If we are lucky enough to kill one or two werewolves, it will be considered a contribution to everyone, don't you think?"

No one agreed, but no one objected.

Liu Ziyun put away the gun.

"You are right, it is too dangerous here, and it will be even more dangerous for you to follow us."

The two criminals laughed, just about to lift their feet to leave, but heard what Liu Ziyun said next.

"Let's find a hotel, tie you in your room, and prepare food and drink for you until this trial is over."

Oh shit!

The hearts of the two criminals were really cold, and the feet that were just about to step out froze in place.

Liu Ziyun looked down at the dead middle-aged woman, took a deep breath, and said to the others:

"Let's go out and see first, but I think it's better to find a relatively safe place to stay first, so it's safer at night."

"As for the body. Cover it with a piece of clothing first. When I find the hotel, I will find someone to see if there is a place to bury her."

"I have no opinion."

"I-I don't mind either."

"Listen to the police comrades."

Among the group of people, only Liu Ziyun showed particularly strong strength. He could shoot. He was a policeman, and at first glance, he was a reliable person.

Invisibly, he is the one person a group of people most want to follow.

Reliable and safe.

But just after Liu Ziyun decided everything, another person walked out of the crowd and rushed to the alley alone.
