Chapter 145: Wind and Rain Castle (3)
The gray and white castle that suddenly appeared in the middle of the mountains, the pouring rain, the wind outside the sky, the "guests" who came here with the same invitation, and the sumptuous dinner where the host never showed up......
After the dinner, the riddle-solving ceremony to solve the "Galaxy Mystery", which was originally planned and highlighted in the invitation, did not take place. Even before everyone knew what the so-called "galaxy riddle" looked like, they were all taken to the second floor by Zambio, the panther manager, and told that they could not go anywhere outside the second floor before dawn, otherwise they would bear the consequences.
In this way, all the guests were arranged on the second floor of the castle with a Gothic interior structure and decoration.
After a brief tidying up, he opened the curtains, and watched and listened to the roaring and raging storm outside the huge glass window.
"Leon Leone, what a big and beautiful room, look here, the bookcase is full of books, hey, this doll's eyes are the same as the real one, it seems to move. ”
The curious little girl looks new everywhere, in fact, the core castle on the Sky City is definitely better than this place, whether it is in terms of scale, decoration, or weirdness.
"Moving eyes, kind of interesting, let me see. ”
With the words, the little Wukong turned over to Xiao Ling's side, winked quickly at the rag doll on the desk, sighed stupidly, and sat down on the chair next to him.
"What's wrong, little Wukong?"
"Hmph, I thought it was some kind of monster, just an ordinary doll. Little Wukong said in a weird way.
Breaking out of his colossus, the smaller Monkey King looks like a bear child, and he feels that he is not as mature as the ten-year-old Xiaoling.
"Really?"
"Little bell, don't touch it. ”
Xiao Ling was about to reach out and pick up the doll to take a look, but the sharp-eyed little Wukong didn't see anything wrong anyway, but he was stopped by Li Ang, and his tone was quite serious.
"Okay. ”
Of course, the little girl was a little upset when someone said this, but soon her attention was attracted by all kinds of novel objects around her.
"Hmph, gods bless, they all say that cats have nine lives and can't stand up to death with curiosity, I really don't know how your little girl survived until now. ”
As Sangil, who had been following Suzu all along, his eyes were suddenly drawn to an oil painting on the west side near the bathroom. Involuntarily, this is not simple, the old yellow dog with a lot of background widened his eyes and walked cautiously towards the oil painting......
This "dark room" living room is quite spacious and atmospheric, in addition to the living room there are four bedrooms, complete bathrooms, and the decoration is retro with some indescribable weirdness. With the terrifying sound of the fierce beasts roaring outside, in the light of the light dance, the candlelight of the silver candlesticks and chandeliers made people feel a little more palpitations.
It is precisely in this strange and unknown environment that Xiaoling's girl is still full of vitality and sunshine, so it is no wonder that she will be complained about by Sangil.
"Leon, there is nothing unusual in a few rooms, it should be ...... here. ”
"Knock knock. ”
Before Xiaobei finished speaking, he was interrupted by three knocks on the door with a strong sense of rhythm.
Suddenly, the people who came to visit the door were arranged in the "between the fires", the Tiance Imperial History from the Longyan Empire in the Longyan Islands, Su Menglin and Stanglu Yaya.
Immediately afterwards, just as had been agreed a long time ago, Calgalon, the golden witcher who was divided into the "gold", and the ranger Gran and the silver-haired girl Nasmeer, who were divided into the "wind", also came to this "dark room".
"The manager didn't say anything, there were really only ten rooms on this floor, which were named after the elemental attributes, namely metal, wood, water, fire, earth and wind, thunder, light, darkness, and ice, which were the rooms we were assigned to. Calgallon said casually with a small cigarette in his mouth, holding the little Rubik's cube that he picked up from the table with one hand.
I don't know who put this wooden Rubik's cube on the table, it is only half the size of an ordinary Rubik's cube, it looks very old but very clean, as if it has just been wiped by someone, it is very shiny.
As for the general situation on the second floor, not long after the panther manager left, Calgallon went out for a look and took a closer look.
"Who knows which room everyone has been assigned to?" Su Menglin suddenly asked.
"Leon?" Hearing this, Xiao Ling turned her face to look at Li Ang.
"Tell me, I don't have a good memory. ”
Li Ang said casually, he didn't expect that Xiao Ling was really relishing, and he was very detailed and accurate about which room he lived in.
According to Suzu from memory, the "Golden Room" is Calgallon, which is here;
"Timma" was the first guest to enter the castle, a middle-aged merchant named Cadoff and his fat and thin, two servants;
"Between the Waters" are the brown-skinned Night Elf siblings, the handsome and cold brother Sim Roger, and the beautiful and sexy sister Simness;
"Between the Fires" is none other than Su Menglin and Steinglu Yaya, a rock freak who is sitting cross-legged in front of a burning fireplace and conceiving a new poem;
"Between the Earth" is the mysterious master from the Saipanya Kingdom, the peerless puppeteer known as the "Holy Hand", Situ Wenyou and her five psychic puppets;
"Between the Winds" is the young ranger Gran who is now sitting with Leon and others, and the poor silver-haired beautiful girl Nasmir who is traveling with him;
"Thunder" is the small country that I came from after the division of the Kingdom of Anerdo, the general of the Kingdom of Ancas, the "Shadow Lion King" Hodder and his "Eight Hussars of the Holy Demon". Unlike the other rooms, the outside of the thunder room was always guarded by two of the eight hussars.
"Between the Lights" is the two mysterious ugly men who come in at the end, a man and a woman, who, unlike the other guests, never give their names;
As for the "dark room", it is naturally Li Ang, Xiao Ling, Sanjier, Xiao Bei, Xiao Wukong and his party. And the last "between the ice", the last guest to get the invitation card has still not appeared. sweet potato
After listening to Xiaoling, everyone admired this girl's strong memory.
"Mu Jian is not a merchant at all, if we don't look away, we should be a magician, and his two servants are not simple. ”
After speaking, Calgallon took a deep breath of cigarette, and with the snow-white smoke exhaled, he extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and lit another one, and on his right wrist, he still held the small old suitcase.
"Everyone else is not an idle person, and it must be extraordinary to be invited, and it seems that it is not easy to get a prize. Leon said tentatively.
There is a saying: the world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is shouting, all for profit. What can attract so many masters here is certainly not as simple as an invitation for nothing.
The prizes, this time, all the people who came here, even from thousands of miles, came here for the winning prizes mentioned in the invitation.
And the winning reward for solving the puzzle this time is the legendary "Time and Space Stone" that can be used to travel through time and space, which is extremely rare in the world. That's right, it's the same Stone of Time and Space that Leon got under the inner city of Calleman, the king of An'erdaw.
In addition to the Time and Space Stone, the final winner will also be rewarded with any of the castle's collections, and this reward will be available even to the puzzle-solving loser.
And the puzzle that everyone will face is the "galaxy riddle" that has been mentioned in the invitation, but few people in this world know about it.
"Fireflies. ”
"I'm here, master. ”
"Still can't detect this castle and our force field?"
Taking advantage of the fact that the others were chatting, Leon quickly got in touch with Firefly.
"Yes, Firefly can hear the voice that the master conveys to me, but it can't locate anyone, including the owner, and as for the castle that the master is talking about, Firefly has detected no trace. ”
"Well, what about the Noah and the rest of the ship?"
"Noah's is fine at the moment, the wind and rain outside the barrier wall will not cause damage to the hull, and no one else is acting out of the ordinary. ”
"Are there any other targets moving here?"
"Thirty-two kilometers away, a fleet of flying air has just passed, and the preliminary detection results are seven armed merchant ships of different types. ”
"Thirty-two kilometers away, it should have nothing to do with here, what about the ground, in the mountains and forests, and what is the movement of that Baka Lake?"
"The whereabouts of sporadic mutant aliens and alien beasts have been detected, and there are several strong biological force fields that disappeared in the place where the master and his party disappeared two hours ago. ”
"That must be the guest who entered the castle after us. ”
"The hosts. ”
Firefly's voice suddenly became a little more urgent, and this subtle change was immediately heard by Li Ang.
"What's wrong?"
"Two warships are approaching here. ”
"Distance, country. ”
"According to this about ten kilometers to the kingdom of Sloveia. ”
"Only ten kilometers?"
"Yes, because the other party turned on the stealth mode that can shield the elemental waves and the perception force field, the remote detection failed. ”
"Leon Leone, Sister Su and Uncle Long, they're leaving. ”
Xiao Ling's voice pulled Leon's consciousness back at once.
"Haha, what do you think, beauty?" As he spoke to Li Ang, Calgallon's gaze involuntarily swept to Su Menglin.
"It's not early, since there's nothing else to do, I think everyone should rest first. Didn't pay attention to Calgaroon, Su Menglin looked at Li Ang and Xiaoling as he spoke, and then left this dark room with Stanglo.
Because she and Feng Shuang'er are both colleagues and best friends, this beautiful swordsman Su Menglin naturally has more trust and good impression of Li Ang.
"Haha, what, isn't anyone going to go up there with us?" Calgallon said, touching his big, unshaven chin and glancing deliberately upward.
"No, I still have Mi'er to take care of, and I don't have time for pointless adventures. ”
Without giving the golden witcher any face, Gran hurried out of the darkness with Nasmir.
"Okay, what about you?" Calgallon spread his hands after glancing at Leon and their personnel, "Okay, I'll go around on my own, but don't talk about it, no problem?"
"Let's go together. ”
Leon's voice was not loud, and his expression did not change much, but those five words suddenly blew up Calgallon like a bomb......
