After Zhou Chen dealt with the Brain Eaters, the gray-haired young man who was crawling on the ground heaved a sigh of relief and thanked him.
He looked a little exhausted and was unable to stand up immediately.
“Where did these octopus monsters come from?”
Zhou Chen asked him because he felt that the appearance of these monsters was a little abnormal.
“I’m not sure, I encountered it at an intersection ahead. There are still some more there.”
The young man replied.
“There’s more? I’ve clearly explored that place before. Let’s see if I can increase my spirit by clearing these monsters.”
Zhou Chen thought for a moment and headed there. He had originally already checked that area and did not plan to go there again in the short term, but since this monster had raised his spirit attribute, he might gain something by sweeping it again.
Zhou Chen quickly walked forward with the spear. Before long, he encountered a few more octopus monsters and a man and a woman who were fighting them.
Zhou Chen had a slight impression of these two. They were the refined young man and the petite girl.
They were fighting the octopus monsters. The octopus monsters’ physical strength was not strong, but their mental attacks were troublesome. Not only did they lack strength to use their weapons, but they also could not stand stably.
Zhou Chen stepped forward and stabbed with his spear, quickly killing these octopus monsters and continuing forward.
After killing a few octopus monsters in the passage, he came to a place he had paid attention to before: the strange room filled with weeds more than two meters tall.
He killed an octopus monster at the door. Then, he saw another one crawling out of the weeds and attacking him with its spiritual attack.
“So this is where you all came from!”
Zhou Chen immediately understood.
“Help…”
At this moment, the woman’s cry for help came from the room again.
“Why is it still here?”
Zhou Chen was immediately uncertain if he should enter. He felt that the situation here was a little messy.
“Forget it! Let’s risk it!”
After thinking for two seconds, he felt that he had to try it. Perhaps he would gain something good.
With a spear in one hand and a machete in the other, he slowly walked in.
He took out the machete to cut the weeds and pave a wide path for himself.
The moment he entered, he felt his headache become stronger. The Frost Necklace reacted clearly, but after gauging the intensity of the headache and feeling that it was still within his endurance, he continued forward.
This room was not large. Before long, he opened a path to the depths. Then, he felt a few long tentacles attacking from his side.
“I’ve been waiting for you!”
Zhou Chen’s reaction was very fast. With a slash of the machete, he chopped off a few disgusting tentacles. He stabbed with the spear, and a slippery feeling came from the spear shaft.
“Ah!”
The woman’s screams sounded at the same time, intensifying Zhou Chen’s headache.
However, thanks to the Frost Necklace, he felt that he could still hold on.
He charged through the tall weeds in the direction of the scream.
After a few steps, he saw a wooden box. On the wooden box was a large octopus monster. It was so large that the box was almost completely hidden by it.
Beside the large octopus monster was a woman with bluish skin. A tentacle from the octopus monster was inside the woman’s head and kept squirming.
“Save me…”
The woman’s lips moved mechanically as she cried for help.
“You’re really disgusting. Forget about killing people, you are even desecrating corpses.”
Zhou Chen’s anger immediately rose. He resisted the monster’s mental attack and stabbed with the spear.
This large octopus monster’s body was more resistant to attacks than the other smaller ones. It took Zhou Chen some time to kill it. In this process, this monster even gave birth to three smaller octopus monsters to support it, but they were all killed by Zhou Chen.
[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the passive skill of the Mother Brain Eater, “Spirit Enhancement I”. Detected that it is superior to the passive skill you already have. It will automatically be replaced.]
[Passive Plunderer triggered: You have stolen the passive skill of the Mother Brain Eater, “Rapid Reproduction I”. Do you want to absorb it?]
“No!”
Zhou Chen directly abandoned this reproduction passive skill. He believed that his body was good enough and did not need this support.
He moved the Mother Brain Eater’s body away from the box with his spear and opened the box. He found a golden scroll inside.
“It’s an upgrade scroll?”
His interest was piqued. He picked up the scroll and carefully checked it. Then, he realized that this golden scroll was not an upgrade scroll.
[Tenacity Skill Scroll
Type: Low bronze scroll
After using this scroll, you will obtain a passive skill: Tenacity (Low Bronze).
Tenacity (Low Bronze): The effect of mental attacks on you is reduced by 25%.]
“It is a passive skill scroll. I didn’t expect that someone like me with the Passive Plunderer talent could obtain passive skills through other means.”
Zhou Chen felt a little strange. He had obtained passive skills many times, but this was the first time he had obtained it from other means than through his Passive Plunderer talent.
Zhou Chen quickly used the scroll. After sensing the mysterious power modifying his body, he opened his character interface.

“My spirit has increased by 0.3, I gained passive skills as well.”
After his spirit attribute increased, Zhou Chen felt that his perception had become stronger. He looked at the description of the Windrun skill and realized that its safe usage duration had increased to 30 minutes per day.
After confirming his gains, he prepared to leave, but when he glanced at the woman’s corpse, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
“At the beginning of this Survival mission, there were six men and three women. Why do I feel like I’ve seen five female Survivors? The long-haired woman… the petite woman… those two girls at the stone platform… plus this one… No, something’s wrong..”
