Seconds later, the second roar came as scheduled . This time, as Feng Bujue and Wild Trace Sword Shadow were concentrating, they naturally got the direction of that monster . They exchanged looks then walked together towards that direction .

Their walk wasn’t fast but very quiet . Feng Bujue switched his mask from being visible to invisible, then took out the [Eye of Hatred] from his bag and equipped it . In several scenarios he had recently played, it was usually him alone, or the situation went similar to Deadly Jeopardy where he didn’t need to use this item .

Although there were lights in the corridor, it wasn’t enough . Usually, after a certain distance, there would be a bright white light which lit up the area, followed by around 15 meters in dim light and then another bright-lit area . . . Due to this circumstance, Feng Bujue decided to use his flashlight, as he was afraid that they would miss some clues along the dingy sections of the corridor .

The two of them tiptoed on the corridor to a T-intersection . Right then, the monster roared again . The sound this time was louder than the previous times .

They stopped at the intersection and looked to the left . Blocking the corridor after another 20 meters was a thick metal gate, which had a wheel-like valve . The monster’s roar came out from there .

Feng Bujue cocked his head, then muttered, "If the door is closed, it means this is an optional content of the plot . From this, we can guess that the power of this monster is not bad . The system lets us choose to kill it or not . If we don’t want to kill it, we can leave by the other direction . But if we take the risks to go in there and kill it, we may get the corresponding benefits . "

Wild Trace Sword Shadow also lowered his tone, "What if this is a BOSS-level monster that is even stronger than Jason?"

"Impossible . Jason is the strongest monster in this scenario . No doubt . " Although Feng Bujue hadn't known Wild Trace Sword Shadow for long, he could still feel this guy was an upright and straightforward person . So, when he discussed with him, he didn’t need to keep his guard up . He then frankly spoke, "The skill I’m granted from the title can help me see the data of the final BOSS in a scenario directly . When we just entered here, I’ve checked it . Jason’s the big boss of this scenario . "

"Really? Is there such a skill?" Wild Trace Sword Shadow got excited instantly; he asked, "Hey, in the Thunderbolt scenario where we fought each other, who was the boss that you saw?"

"Didn’t see it," said Feng Bujue .

"Why?"

"When I heard the system’s notification, you had already stormed towards me with your sword . Would I be dumbly idle there to check the menu?"

"Blame me?"

"Nonsense . "

"Ha ha, how is Jason’s data? Is he strong?" asked Wild Trace Sword Shadow .

"What can I say… only considering his fighting power, perhaps he isn’t as strong as heterotypes, predators or something… . well, aliens in short . But talking about his survival ability, killing him is more difficult than dealing with demons," answered Feng Bujue .

The monster’s data Feng Bujue had seen was as follows:

[Name: Jason Voorhees ]

[Race: ???]

[Level: 20]

[Height: 190 cm]

[Weight: 113 kg]

[Fighting technique: Close combat; familiar with using machetes; also knows how to use other weapons or bare hand fighting . ]

[Weakness: Always listens to his mommy . ]

[Skills: Resurrection (even if you have physically destroyed him entirely, he just needs an absurd cause to appear again) . ]

[Level of danger: Medium]

Feng Bujue personally thought that this resurrecting skill mentioned in this scenario was to mock the producers, who had made this franchise .

ROAR――

The monster behind the gate had roared again . This time, since they were near, they could even hear something else which sounded like metal pieces colliding . Low but heavy, also dense .

"First, we should put aside things that are not relevant . Anyway, Jason now is in the spaceship already . Under normal circumstances, it’s hardly a chance for us to see him before we leave the scenario," Feng Bujue said . "First, we need to talk about this monster . Should we kill it?"

"Eh?" Wild Trace Sword Shadow was dazed . "Aren’t you in charge of planning? Why ask me?"

"Ah . . . so . . . " Feng Bujue mumbled, "Well, it’s much easier if you kill what I tell you to kill . " He put both the flashlight and the steel sword back into his bag, and came forward to grab the valve lock on the metal gate . "I will open the door . You barge in and slash anything you see . I got your back . "

"Hey…" now Wild Trace Sword Shadow understood why Feng Bujue needed to ask for his opinions .

Well, too late to say anything else . Feng Bujue had already turned the wheel . The monster inside seemed to notice the situation over there . Before Wild Trace Sword Shadow stormed in, it had already started to move .

Feng Bujue pushed the gate open then took several steps back, taking the steel sword out again . When Wild Trace Sword Shadow crouched his body, attempting to jump in, he once again heard the strange noise of metal pieces rubbing on each other coming over from inside the dark . Almost out of instinct, Wild Trace Sword Shadow retreated, using his sword to block in front of his chest while facing the thing storming to the gate from the dark .

When it came to Wild Trace Sword Shadow’s sight in a whole, he directly erased his intent to use his sword and stop that monster . He also retreated quickly .

The monster appeared in the corridor . Under the light, its strange shape, which was utterly hard to describe, gradually revealed .

Let’s just imagine it like this . You unfold a newspaper, put a lump of metal things with different shapes, such as hangers, screws, scissors, L-shaped water pipes, a large coil of wire, etc . on it . Wrap the newspaper around them . At the same time, use force to ball the sheet of paper . No doubt that the edge of those metal objects will pierce through the thin paper and jut out . And, the final work you got is an irregular-shaped lump of metal enveloped in a thin sheet of newspaper, which have so many holes .

The monster that came out from that door was something similar to the shape described above . Anyway, it wasn’t a sheet of newspaper covering it, but a decomposing, rotten layer of skin, which was even thicker than a mattress . This layer of skin had so many holes where some metal objects were protruding . They could see a bicycle frame, a roll of barbed wire fence, car components, the wire grille from anti-theft doors, etc . All were rusted and dilapidated .

It was hard to tell the volume of that monster, but it seemed to be as big as a car . When it was still in the room, it looked like a giant dumpling; but when it flounced out from the metal gate, it could change its shape to the shape of a Mexican chicken roll .

The monster used the metal objects sticking out from its skin to move . It looked like a slug crawling on the floor, but in fact, it had numerous ‘feet’ . The rubbing sound Feng Bujue and his teammate heard came from its movement .

And the roar was coming from inside of that ‘body’ . However, even Feng Bujue found it hard to imagine what was hidden inside those countless metal objects and a skin layer around 10 centimeters thick .

"Is that a machine or a creature…" Wild Trace Sword Shadow backed off as he cautiously watched the monster that was slowly moving towards him . In fact, he wasn’t really scared by this bizarre appearance as he was just confused from where he should start to attack this monster .

Feng Bujue stood several meters behind Wild Trace Sword Shadow . He said, "Well, it doesn’t look like a spirit . " He finished then took out another weapon from his bag . Now, he was holding a steel sword in one hand and the wrench in the other as he looked straight ahead . "Thus, I have double insurance . "

"How to start?" Wild Trace Sword Shadow slightly turned his head and threw a glance at Feng Bujue .

"Tear it," Feng Bujue answered with a calm tone .

"It’s easy to say . It has so many metal ‘tentacles’ probing out there . It’s very unfavorable to come closer—"

Before he could finish speaking, Feng Bujue had already strode forward, burst out and chopped the monster with the two weapons in his hands . The monster indeed countered him . However, out of any of their expectations, it was awfully lame . Those rusted metal pieces weren’t sharp weapons . Also, their speed wasn’t fast, and their force wasn’t strong at all . In short, the attack power of that monster was like someone with average strength swinging a bicycle to attack you . In reality, that could really hurt people, but in this game, physical conditions of players were beyond that of ordinary people . Moreover, with the weapons in Feng Bujue’s hands, a little resistance wasn’t a big deal .

After madly chopping the monster for a while, Feng Bujue cut open ‘the skin’ of the monster . A huge lump of damp, moldy, and rusty metal objects was exposed in front of his eyes . He didn’t hesitate at all and slashed out his sword . Using the [Robots Must Die] to chop that chunk of broken iron was like using a plastic knife to cut a cake . The metal body of the monster was cut open into a huge, hideous mouth .

As Wild Trace Sword Shadow saw what the monster got to counter them, he felt that he had lost his face on staying idle like this . He then said no more words as he strode forward and shredded the body of the monster with his ‘Glorious Shadow Slash’ accompanied by the speed of a storm .

A liquid substance similar to machine oil leaked out from behind the monster’s thick ‘skin’ . It splashed everywhere while the monster was being minced . Momentarily, the floor was covered with pulp of meat, black oil and pieces of rusted metal fragments .

The strange thing here was, before that, the monster was still roaring, but after Wild Trace Sword Shadow and Feng Bujue had started to attack it, it became quiet . Although the monster was constantly using the fragmented metal pieces in its body to resist and counter at the same time, it didn’t let out any roar .

In the next three minutes, the two players were like mice gnawing cheese, constantly attacking the monster . And, at the same time, the monster had fought back nonstop, even though its attack couldn't give the two players a significant threat .

The process of killing the monster was more tiresome than they had thought . If there were a werewolf coming out from the door, it would have been better . Perhaps its power was five times stronger than this monster, but killing it wouldn't be as strenuous as this .

Eventually, when they had consumed around 300 points of their Physical Value, they had seen the core of this monster . Immediately, the peculiarity level of this monster advanced to another height…
