Chapter 38: "Ten Minutes of Respite"
"Tsk. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info" suddenly detached from memory, Zhong Lan, who was still seriously injured, touched his neck and spoke softly.
Even if I get rid of my memory, I can feel the pain of a man's beheading in an instant, but unfortunately I don't see anything. If it's a memory...... So that man, or rather a ghost, is the man who is the owner of this house?
Thinking about it was only a matter of a moment, Zhong Lan came back to his senses, and almost at the moment of speaking, several players next to him surrounded him. Looking at the appearance, the poison's look is very bad, so you can only curl up in your lonely arms, and your bare brain is also full of weirdness.
"Black ...... Spades, are you okay now? Just now...... "You asked cautiously.
"It was fine just now." Zhong Lan stood up, pointed to the poison and asked, "How is she?" β
Luo Lonely smiled bitterly and explained: "She has claustrophobia, and she has a lot of ...... Fear of the dark. It was wrong when I entered the haunted house at the beginning, and it was already the limit to survive until now without collapsing. β
Hearing this, Zhong Lan shifted his gaze to the poison. Sure enough, I saw that little Lori's face was pale, her eyes were blank, and she seemed to be muttering something.
couldn't help frowning, and first asked, "Can she continue to copy in this state?" β
Several people looked at each other, and everyone knew in their hearts that there was only one way to get out of the dungeon: death. And if the only magic attack is out of the dungeon, what will happen to the rest of their players?
A group of monsters and goblins playing hide and seek?
Hehe, think it's a playhouse?
What's more, who knows when a temporary side quest like this will be triggered, and if they come back a few more times to "catch it and die", they are a bunch of powerless lambs.
Zhuan Hei's face sank, and he looked at Lonely in unison with Zhong Lan, waiting for him to reply.
Lonely became more and more helpless, so she could only hold the poison tightly, and said: "No matter what, I can't leave the medicine alone, she can't die." β
"You seem to be familiar with ......" Zhong Lan raised her eyebrows and looked at the girl in her arms, "Poison is familiar?" β
"No matter who it is, even if it's you, as long as it's a companion, you can't easily abandon it." Luo Lonely replied with a smile, and the abruptness of a sentence made the atmosphere more and more embarrassing.
You can't say a word with your bare brain, so you can only stare at the two of them silently.
The stalemate lasted for a while, and the faces of several players changed dramatically at the same time, because a system sound appeared in their ears at the same time.
"Ding...... Trigger the main plot 'Death Gives You Ten Minutes of Respite', and ask all the brave to find the safest place to hide within ten minutes, waiting for the guests to arrive in the snowy night. If the sound is generated, the guest will be killed. β
The mischievous coda did not play a role in easing the atmosphere, and everyone's faces became gloomy at the same time. I just got rid of the "catch it and die" plot, and now there is a "ten-minute respite", the only difference is that this time it's finally the main plot?
"Spades, what do we do next?" You straightened down, pointed downstairs and said, "The distinguished guest must have come in from the first floor, I think the most dangerous place is the safest place, I choose to hide on the first floor." β
Luo Lonely touched his chin and said: "This plot doesn't say ignoring the attack of the ghosts, if you hide on the first floor and are attacked by the ghosts, are you sure not to make a sound?" β
"This ......" you frowned and said nothing for a while.
Zhong Lan seemed to suddenly remember something, and said, "Bai Shijia hasn't found it yet, I'll go look for him." β
You immediately retorted: "Don't look for it, I've already looked for it once, and we can't have any accidents now!" β
"No, I'll go find him." Zhong Lan said stiffly, not allowing the opportunity to continue to interject in your light brain, and then looked at a few people coldly, "Thank you for accompanying me here before, but even if I am alone, I will not die." β
doesn't give a trace of affection at all, even if it's to express gratitude, so that people can't feel a trace of sincerity.
However, this provoked a lonely smile, showed white teeth, and nodded: "I believe you will not die." β
"Uncle...... I'll do it myself. The poison that was huddled in Lonely's arms suddenly moved, stood up by himself, hung his head and said, "It's not too early, let's hide it quickly." β
A word woke up the dreamer, and the word of poison suddenly woke up several people, seeing that there was only half of the ten minutes left, several players no longer wasted time, looking around for a place to hide.
As for Zhong Lan, he had searched the room on the second floor before, if Bai Shijia was on the second floor, it was estimated that he would have appeared a long time ago, and it was impossible on the first floor, and the only possible place to stay was on the third floor.
The invisible ghost she encountered when she broke into the baby room suddenly appeared in her mind, and she settled down before she decided to go up.
Of course, she didn't go to Bai Shijia to save a companion, in her opinion, Bai Shijia, who disappeared frequently, could almost be described as "burdensome", and the only thing that attracted her to Bai Shijia was the diary.
ββThe diary that Bai Shijia had held in his hand before.
From the ghost's memory, some clues can be vaguely glimpsed.
There are a total of four main characters in this haunted house: the hostess, the hostess, the son, and a "she".
It can be seen that the man and the hostess are people, and then I don't know why they died, the son has mental problems, and "she" is the most critical, it seems that the man and the hostess are afraid at the same time, and it seems to have killed the man and the hostess. So "she" is a ghost?
A simple judgment needs to be further confirmed, and if Zhong Lan's prediction is correct, there should be some secrets recorded in that diary.
Therefore, she is bound to find Baishijia.
The ghost's attack has been restored to effectiveness, and there is the shadow of an invisible ghost, so Zhong Lan must be extra cautious. From the second floor to the third floor, there were no "live meat" or "ghost hands" on the stairs, until she reached the third floor, she looked at the baby room with slight hesitation, and searched around elsewhere but did not find Bai Shijia's figure.
Instead, it was disturbed by a few imps.
After the hasty examination, if Bai Shijia did not deliberately hide himself, then he should be in the baby's room. Zhong Lan gritted her teeth and approached the baby's room.
Standing at the door, he froze and called in a low voice: "Bai Shijia? β
There was not a hint of echo.
She suddenly frowned, smelled a trace of blood on the tip of her nose, and slowly pushed the door open, the smell of blood became stronger and stronger, and even made people breathless.
Through the faint moonlight that came in through the window, I could clearly see a large patch of blood on the face, and a ...... Unrecognizable corpses. The whole face was completely scratched to shreds, and even the other exposed flesh and skin were not intact.
Zhong Lan calmly glanced around, ignoring the corpse on the ground, and stared straight at the book that the corpse was holding tightly in his hand - a diary?
She bent down and pulled out her diary, looked at the tragic corpse, turned and walked outside.
The blood on the ground had congealed, but the fingers of the completely damaged corpse flicked slightly. (To be continued.) )
