The tanuki looked at the exit where no figure had walked out for a long time, and couldn't help but turn around to look at Beixi, looking at each other, she saw doubts in Beixi's eyes.
Ukiyo-e snorted coldly, his tone impatient but a little worried. "They're so slow. ā
"It shouldn't be. "Lollipop, the three of them are not stupid, one day is a day, although they are a little bit of a fight on weekdays, but they are actually smart people. In fact, there are no real fools in the legend group, but some people are good at showing off, while some people are relatively low-key.
"I messaged them and didn't reply. The tanuki said, and the thought in his heart changed, and he said, "Why don't you go in and look for it." ā
From their exit, you don't have to think too much about finding your way back to the Ring Corridor. But coming from the circular corridor, there are still a lot of unmarked routes that need to be considered. However, the tanuki can mark all the way back to the hallway, and then just lead the person to follow the blue marker.
It's a good idea, but it also requires a corresponding Pathfinder Ball. The props on their bodies really can't complete this "project".
Tanuki is asking Nord Stream for advice.
Nord Stream yawned, "I don't know what the three of them are doing, but you can rest assured that they are fine." ā
"You said that five minutes ago. Tanuki sighed, "Let's go find someone." ā
Nord Stream did not promise or refuse.
Ukiyo-e, who was on the side, said, "There is Rasheng." Even if Sugar Candy was stupid for a day, he wouldn't. ā
The corners of Beixi's mouth rose slightly, and the tanuki saw this expression in his eyes, so he had nothing to say, and waited quietly on the side.
Less than a minute.
Hurried footsteps gradually came out of the exit, and soon, a ball of light gradually brightened in the dark exit, and then the three lollipops walked out one after another.
"You're too slow. Ukiyo-e looked at the three, "slower than a tortoise." Obviously, most of the routes in this maze are already marked in blue, and I admire how much time you can spend. ā
The lollipop gave him a roll of his eyes, and Ukiyo-e asked, "Tell me, what did you meet in the labyrinth?"
The tanuki couldn't help but look at ukiyo-e, this man...
Although they are not forgiving, they actually know their situation better than anyone else. Probably the same, the people of the legend group sometimes talk to each other in a bad way, but because of the deep feelings, some of the words are pure jokes.
Lollipop: "Strange encounter." ā
It's strange that they haven't met each other after so many trips.
"I was almost at the exit when something strange came out. One day is one day, touching his chin and smiling: "And then another NPC popped up." ā
And so it was.
The lollipop itself has a mission.
Her assignment is an individual assignment and is not taken by the whole team. Their team just followed her, and they also relied on her to trigger missions.
Roughly the quest is set to a wave of monsters when approaching the exit of the maze, and then NPCs appear, and after a conversation, the player will be given clues.
"What clues did you get?"
"Hmm...... That NPC is called Tana, and it's the guardian of the labyrinth. "After destroying a wave of monsters, they also fought [Tana] once, but fortunately it was not at the boss level, at most it was an elite. Rashomon alone served as the output of the three people, and destroyed [Tana] in one minute.
Later, after a conversation, they learned that the dark shadow had walked through the maze twenty-five minutes earlier. According to Tana's words, the shadow seemed to be extremely familiar with the labyrinth of corridors, and it walked through it at a very fast speed. And the black shadow had a very terrifying and familiar aura on his body, just like Lord Meredith, but it was also mixed with a strange smell.
"What's the weird smell?"
One day is one day looking back, how did you describe it at the time?
"[Tana] said, it's the smell of the woods. ā
Ukiyo-e: "What does the forest smell like?"
"......" is a day and a day is speechless. Actually, he didn't know, but this sentence must not really refer to taste. "I think it's a reference to the place where the dark shadow lives. ā
Most likely.
"Oh~ And who lives in the woods with the NPC we met?"
There was silence.
"They were all met in the woods. ā
Then this clue is really dispensable. After all, there is no suspicion at the moment, and of course, the mysterious person who originally handed over the key to the lollipop may be the leader of the whole incident, but he has no clue about that person.
Quinn, Eagle King Murf may all be possible. It's just that the probability of this possibility doesn't seem to be too high, because Quinn doesn't know that they have the [Book of Punishment] in their hands, and as for Manf, although there is too little conversation, they can see his purpose.
"What else did you say?"
After delaying for so long, it is estimated that there are a lot of clues.
"[Tana] didn't quite see the dark shadow for fear of the smell. ā
"Is that smell of the [Book of Punishment] he said?" Tanuki asked.
"Probably so. He was actually talking about the taste of [Meredith], but the [Book of Punishment] was Meredith's, and it was the black shadow with the [Book of Punishment]. ā
"Do you think it's possible that Meredith stole the book?" Ukiyo-e spoke suddenly.
Several people stared at him and did not speak.
Being seen with a chill in his back, Ukiyo-e coughed: "Am I wrong?" Anyway, Uncle Ben, I think so, after all, the task is not to return the coordinates of Sugar Candy [Meredith], that woman, I think the probability of life and death is still more than that of life." ā
"Didn't say you were wrong. Nord Stream thoughtfully. "But there's no reason, because the book was originally Meredith's. And the task is to get Sugar Candy to return the book to her, why would she go to such lengths to stun us and take the book away?"
"And, ah, most importantly. Lollipop pointed out a very important point, "The people who stun us don't throw bottles from the inside, they throw them from the outside." ā
If it's Meredith, there has to be a reason.
Nord Stream will not reject the idea of ukiyo-e, but this idea can find a bunch of reasons to disprove it. Nord Stream has encountered many missions, and the final boss will surprise players...
There is still a chance that this kind of thing will happen, but it is very small. It is not ruled out that [Meredith] will really be the big boss, but there must be a reason to prove it. There is no reason now, but a bunch of reasons to prove that Meredith could not have taken the Book of Punishment.
It's hers.
Ukiyo-e folded his arms, "Well, I didn't think about this. ā
The lollipop tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "That [Tana] seems to say that the black shadow glanced at his hiding place when he left, and in the dark passage, he saw a pair of evil eyes. ā
"And the [squeak] sound that something makes when it moves, running fast. ā
"Mouse?" Ukiyo-e smiled, "The rat squeaks and squeaks and runs fast. ā
"We haven't met a rat monster yet. ā
Nord Stream: "This clue is very vague. ā
"Definitely. ā
"But, in a sense, it also revealed some news to us. The tanuki smiled.
The clues are very vague, which proves that it is not yet time to fully know the identity of the mysterious person, and the next clue is not necessarily to point out the identity of the mysterious person, which may lead them to a certain place in this palace, and that place may be the final "battlefield".
"Tangtang, you come here first to see if there are any clues. ā
Nord Stream jumped into the pool, and ukiyo-e gave her a place. A few people dispersed, leaving room for the lollipop to look around, and the tanuki looked around, not knowing if it was an illusion, always feeling that someone was staring at them, but there was no figure in the hallway.
retracted his gaze, but he cast a look at Upper Nord Stream.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds and moved away silently.
Except for the lollipop, everyone else stood still, without movement or communication.
Lollipop walked around the pool, and the system gave her a hint: look around the pool of the holy spring, it seems that there is something strange.
The light was not dim, and as soon as the magic lamps of several people gathered, the light was enough to illuminate the entire area of the palace's holy spring, and no corner was missed.
"Why didn't you see it?" Lollipop muttered, "There's something strange near this pool?" She had to bend down and look in the weeds by the pool, and she walked forward day by day, "What are you looking for, you can't find it for half a day, grinding and chirping to wait for the dead." ā
When the lollipop heard this, he didn't even think about giving him a kick directly.
One day is one day and shouts, "Ouch hey", and run away. The lollipop looked angrily at the day that ran to the opposite side to hide, "Can you not make trouble?" If you want to help, you can follow obediently. ā
One day is one day and smiled: "I want to help, but I don't have a task, so I guess I can't find it." ā
"One day, don't make a fuss. Nord Stream spoke.
A day is a day to touch his nose, in fact, he just wants to take the opportunity to see where the person who is secretly watching them is. After all, they couldn't look around openly, for fear that the thing would find out that they were aware of his presence.
"Oops, I found it. The lollipop straightened up in surprise at this time, took something and observed it repeatedly, and then walked to Nord Stream and them.
"Look. ā
The eye focused on the palm of the lollipop's hand, which was a ring. On the dark gold ring, there was a touch of purple in a red gravel, like an eye, and there were distorted words on the ring.
"Does this ring have a name?"
Lollipop blinked, "This is called [Vermilion Eye]." ā
"Zhu, spider?" Ukiyo-e's eyes lit up, "It's Quinn's thing, isn't it?"
Lollipop is speechless. "It's not a spider's spider... It's Zhu, the one with the surname [Zhu]. Although it is a homonym, it is not necessarily Quinn. ā
"This ring, there must be something to do. ā
Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to go through an extremely difficult labyrinth to get here.
The lollipop looked at the ring repeatedly, the material was very good, but they didn't have an impression of the ring... There may be people who have worn it, but they don't really pay attention to these details.
"Huh?" The lollipop's fingertips slid over the gravel, and he felt a slight looseness. She raised her eyes to see a few people with puzzled expressions, and she said, "This gravel seems to be moving." After saying that, he carefully fiddled with it, and found that it was indeed loose, but it could not be taken off, but it could be turned left and right.
The lollipop writhed in a circle.
The ring's gravel emitted a faint glow, and the latter image was projected from the ring. Does this ring have a video recording function?
In the picture, a man in a cloak runs out of the exit.
"Huh?"
Isn't this ring owned by the man who took the Book of Punishment?
The cloaked man quickly approached, holding something in his right hand, and when he got closer, he pulled his cloak, revealing the familiar book.
"It's the Book of Punishment. ā
The ring should have been worn on the hand, and they could not see the appearance of the book thief, let alone the appearance of the person wearing the ring, but could only see the black cloak constantly throwing out black arcs with the person's large movements.
They should be in a conversation, and may have had an argument.
After that, the picture is reversed and chaotic, the ring falls to the ground in the struggle, and the blood drips, and then in this corner, the cloak appears in the camera again, the man is wearing the cloak from head to toe in the cloak, and his hands seem to be stretched out towards the ring, and then the camera shakes a few points, and the cloaked man walks to another door next to the exit of the maze with the [Book of Punishment].
The screen terminates.
There was silence for a while.
After a while, one day is one day to break the peace. "I went, I didn't understand. The picture given by this ring is not yet nourishing. ā
"So there were two people who were using us in the shadows in the first place?"
Then one killed the other, presumably for the sake of the book. "Rashomon saw blood.
"Then there are no corpses here~"
This is a problem.
When they first came to the circular hallway, they looked down, and there were no bodies at all. Even if you get out of the labyrinth, you still don't. But the footage recorded in the ring seems to be that someone is indeed dead.
And what about corpses?
Also, the shaking of the camera at the end is also confusing.
When it shakes, the picture blurs for a moment, and then when it becomes clear, the man in the black cloak is seen holding the [Book of Punishment] and leaving.
"Did you notice the hands?"
"What?"
The tanuki said, "The man who held the [Book of Punishment] at the beginning had a very white and slender hand, like a woman's hand. ā
Then, when the camera finally shook and blurred, the person who left with the book in his arms had a hand that was not so slender and white. ā
Lollipop quickly turned on the video in the ring again.
I put it again, and this time several people paid more attention to the details. As the tanuki said, the hands of those who leave before and after are indeed different.
"Wow, Sister Tanuki, you're so good. Lollipop stared at her adoringly.
Nord Stream also said: "Her eyes are bright, the kind that can flash the blind." ā
The tanuki couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Cats, their eyes must be bright and bright. ā
