Chapter 12 The Ama's Room
"It hurts! I lost it. What were those things just now?"
Kamiyagawa, whose consciousness returned to reality, unsteadily got up from the ground.
The moment of death in the game just happened too fast. After his head hit the ground, he became dizzy for a while, and before he could react at all, he disappeared immediately.
He lifted his phone up and saw the big word [菜] on the screen.
Kamiyagawa: ...
Well, the previous death reminder was just yin and yang, but now it's a direct personal attack, right?
What new type of cyber violence.
Naturally, Kamiyagawa wouldn't care so much about the prompts that popped up in the game. He bent down and picked up the new dead paper figurine that was spawned on the ground first.
I have been playing the game "Ghost Story" for several days, and I have already mastered a lot of content and functions.
For example, this dead paper man.
Not only can it replace a life in the game, but it can also be used in reality after being consumed, that is-to perform an autopsy on yourself.
The surface of the paper figurine is wet, corresponding to the ending of the game just now when it was dragged into the water.
However, Kamiyagawa should not have been drowned just now.
It can be seen that there are dense bite marks distributed on the body of the paper figurine. These traces are very realistically restored, and they look like the tooth marks of wild animals.
"It should be like this, that's right, I was bitten to death by those things that jumped out of the water." Kamiyagawa put the paper figurine away.
Then he took out the newly obtained item [Mirage Bag].
The tan cloth bag has a faint salty smell, like the smell of sea breeze. A red string is tied to the mouth of the bag. On the surface, it looks like a messenger bag in size, but there is something else inside.
Exactly the same as in the game.
Shen Guchuan opened the [Mirage Bag], and there were only two dried salted fish inside.
"The dried salted fish I took out was consumed... So, those dark shadows in the artificial lake in the game are some kind of strange story about loving dried salted fish?"
...
"Ghost story, humanoid, aquatic, likes to eat dried salted fish."
In the evening, after Kamiyagawa returned home after finishing his part-time job, he began to use these words as keywords to start Google, trying to find out the real body of the monster in the artificial lake.
However, it may be that the search vocabulary was too vague, and no useful clues were found for a while.
On the other hand, it is also because in Japan, there are too many types of ghost stories, monsters, and hyakki. Many universities even set up majors such as monster studies to study one aspect of folk culture.
Among the vast number of ghosts and ghosts, it is really difficult for non-professionals to search for one of them with a few vague words.
After searching and searching, Kamiyagawa finally wandered into the forum again.
A forum called "Ghost Talk and Hundred Ghosts Exchange with Friends" has a large number of active users, tens of thousands of people, and most of them seem to be ghost lovers.
"Since you can't find it yourself, why don't you ask the amazing netizens?"
Out of the mentality of giving it a try and not getting pregnant, Kamiyagawa registered an account with the ID "Honest Foreigner" and posted a post for help on the forum.
[Honest outsider]: "Mengxin asks for help. Is there such a strange story that lives in water, looks like a human being, is very fast, and has great strength. Maybe he likes to eat dried salted fish?"
After the post was sent, no one responded.
Hmm... For a newcomer, it's quite normal for the post to sink.
Kamiyagawa didn't care too much, put down his phone and went to take a shower.
It's fine if he really doesn't understand what those things are in the artificial lake, let's put it aside for a while, anyway, he has no idea of exploring under the artificial lake for the time being.
He can't handle the headless high school students on the shore, let alone underwater.
The monsters in the water are obviously not on the same level as the headless high school students. When it comes to the hatred of headless JK and DK, Kamiyagawa's small body can still race them for a certain distance before dying.
I took out the small dried fish by the artificial lake, and was instantly caught by the monster in the water.
The monsters in the lake were too fierce and the water was too deep for Kamiyagawa to be unable to grasp.
After taking a shower and washing and drying the clothes, Kamiyagawa went back to the bed and picked up his mobile phone, and saw a notification on the forum that the message was replied.
Clicking on it, it was a forum level Lv6 boss account who replied to him.
The other party's ID is 【Purple Above】.
[On the Purple]: "Hello. According to your description, there is a kind of monster that roughly meets the above characteristics-the diver's room."
In addition to this answer, the other party also thoughtfully posted a few pictures below.
There are screenshots of online documents, and there are also a few books that were taken with a camera, all about the diver's room——
Hainufang, also known as Mrs. Hai.
Legend has it that she is the wife of the great monster Kaibozu.
Haenyeobo is a fish-tailed human, amphibious on land and sea, and often appears on Jujuku Island near Shimane Prefecture.
Among the illustrations in the materials, some draw the diver's house like a mermaid, and some draw it... er, like a water monkey?
Anyway, they are all in the shape of a mermaid, with webbed hands.
The difference is that the former paints the upper body of the haenyeo as a glamorous, naked young woman. The latter, on the other hand, was painted like an ape with wet and long hair.
Haenyeobo is an ocean monster who likes to eat fish, especially salted fish, and often steals fishermen's catch.
It is said that the fishermen would use many big stones to press down the fishing nets in order to prevent the sea women from succeeding. However, these heavy stones are not difficult for the sea women. Steal the fish from the net.
"It seems to be on the right number."
Kamiyagawa looked at the information given by 【Zi Shang】, and lightly pressed his teeth against his thumb joint to think.
The only problem is, the sources show that the ama are supposed to be monsters that live in the ocean. But in the game world, they encountered it in the artificial lake area of the school.
"However, there is an undercurrent passage at the bottom of the artificial lake in the game, and it may be connected to a certain ocean area. Maybe we can open a new map through there in the future."
Kamiyagawa first expressed his gratitude to the boss [Purple Above] for answering questions in the post.
After that, he clicked on the other party's profile picture and opened the private chat dialog box.
[Honest foreigner]: "May I ask you another question?"
[Above Purple]: "Hello."
[Above Purple]: "Yes."
Because I just replied to Kamiyagawa's post, the other party is still online and replied very quickly.
It seems that he is an enthusiastic boss, love love love.
[Honest foreigner]: "Is there such a strange story, which looks like a JK or DK who is wearing a student uniform and has no head?"
This time, it took about seven or eight minutes before there was a reply in the private chat dialog box.
[Purple Above]: "You should be talking about Xiqi boy. It is said that it is a low-level spirit body born from the negative emotions of young students. It is very weak and not aggressive."
[Above the Purple]: "It's a very unpopular, strange talk with no sense of existence. There's only so much information I can find."
"Dare to love those headless high school students called Xiqidouzi." Kamitani Chuan talked to himself, and at the same time paid attention to this big boss of [Purple Above] who is knowledgeable about ghost stories.
That's why I like surfing the Internet.
Netizens know a lot and speak nicely.
However, is it okay to say that Xiqi boy is weak and not aggressive?
I, the young co-lord of ghosts and gods, was pressed to the ground by them and killed randomly.
"Sure enough, I am too weak and have no strength."
It's decided, tomorrow morning I will go to the Chigui from the Kendo Department to learn swords!
