Chapter 34 How to Use Oil Lamps
"So you can generate electricity, right?" said Chubby.
"Go, go, go. Chu Ge rolled his eyes, and then his expression became serious, "Just now on the fork in the road on the right, I saw a few oil lamps, we can use them for lighting!"
"Let's go, let's see. Old Dream said.
They cautiously walked forward, Chubby and Old Dream kept their vision on, paying attention to their surroundings.
But after the empty ghost was driven away just now, he didn't come out again for a long time, and he didn't know where he went.
After the power outage, the whole museum became very dim, and if there was no light, it would be a problem to find the oil lamps.
However, there is Chu Ge, who, as an LV5 explorer player, has unlocked the skill of the expedition map.
So the places he walked in the museum just now left traces and routes on the expedition map.
Soon they came to the fork in the road full of portraits and found the cupboard.
There were a few oil lamps on that cabinet, exactly four, and one of them picked up an oil lamp, Chu Ge looked at the information of the oil lamp in his hand, and showed an expression like this.
【Name: Oil lamp in the museum】
【Type: Equipment】
[Grade: Normal]
[Collateral Effect: Illuminates the darkness, which can be used to dispel the empty ghosts and slow down the empty ghosts' movements]
[Remaining oil: 100%]
[Comprehensive evaluation: Oil lamps are fragile, protect your oil lamps, this is your only hope in the face of empty ghosts]
No wonder there are four oil lamps at the entrance of the museum, because this is the equipment that the dungeon prepared for the four players to deal with the empty ghosts.
Chu Ge looked at the oil lamp in his hand, the oil lamp was made of glass and had a small oblong metal body.
On one side of the pot there is a knob that can be adjusted in and out to control the brightness of the lamp, and the top of the lamp head is bent into a handle, and the oil lamp is decorated with many strange paintings, along with many letters and patterns arranged into words.
Although Chu Ge couldn't understand it, he found that the font of these words seemed to be the same as the words under the mysterious black evil god statue just now.
He unscrewed the oil lamp, and it suddenly glowed with a warm yellow glow.
"I don't know where that monster went. "I have a hunch that the empty ghost will come out again soon," said Old Dream. ”
"With this oil lamp, we don't have to be afraid of that empty ghost. Chubby said, the light of the oil lamp illuminated the darkness in front of him, making him feel much more at ease.
"We need to find a way to defeat the empty ghost as soon as possible. The eldest lady said.
"You mean to use this thing?" Wang Yingjun raised the oil lamp in his hand.
"Nope. The eldest lady shook her head, "Although the oil lamp can dispel the empty ghost, it is not enough to defeat it. ”
While they were chatting, there was a painting not far away, which was hidden in the darkness, it was a portrait of a person, and in the painting was an old man.
At this moment, the old man's face suddenly became distorted, turning into a whirlpool and constantly spinning, and the picture was torn apart, and a pale paw was exposed!
None of them noticed this scene, Chu Ge kept fiddling with the oil lamp in his hand, he rotated the knob of the oil lamp, and the light changed from small to large.
He found that when the knob was turned to the head, the light of the oil lamp was the brightest, even a little dazzling.
Eh, it's kind of interesting......
"Bang!"
At this moment, his vision suddenly began to beat, which was a precursor to danger, and he immediately raised the oil lamp, "Everyone be careful, it's near us!"
The crowd was immediately alerted, and they raised their oil lamps to shine around, and the yellow light illuminated the darkness, but they did not find the figure of the empty ghost.
Odd......
How is there no ......
Chu Ge felt a little strange, something suddenly fell on his head, it was a small pebble, and his intuition told him that something was wrong.
He jerked his head up, and saw the pale figure lying on the ceiling!
"It's on our heads!"
Old Dream also saw it, and he shouted, and he immediately raised the oil lamp to shine on the empty ghosts, who were afraid that the light of the oil lamps would jump down from the ceiling and fall in front of them.
"Roar!"
The empty ghost opened its big mouth at them, and its sharp claws grabbed at the eldest lady, and the little fat raised the oil lamp in his hand and shone towards the empty ghost!
In the light of the oil lamp, the empty ghost's movements became much slower, and its figure became illusory, and it covered its head with its two hands, blocking its eyes that were not there, but it was still approaching.
"What to do, the oil lamp doesn't seem to work. Old Dream said nervously.
"I'll do it!"
Chu Ge said in a deep voice, he directly turned the knob to the maximum, and the oil lamp made a sound of power overload, and the original yellow light turned into a dazzling white, sweeping towards the empty ghost!
The empty ghost suddenly let out a terrible scream, and after it was hit by the white light, it began to retreat, and its body became transparent and gradually invisible.
It panicked and ran towards a painting, and the canvas rippled like water, and the empty ghost slipped straight into it.
When the figure of the empty ghost disappeared, the painting returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
The light of the oil lamp was dazzling, and Chu Ge and the others were so illuminated that they couldn't open their eyes, and they didn't see how the empty ghost disappeared.
When their gaze returned, they realized that the monster was gone.
"Where did it go?" Old Dream looked around.
Chu Ge also looked around and found no trace left by the empty ghost.
"Looks like this thing can really deal with that monster. Xiaopang happily carried the oil lamp, "With the light of the oil lamp, my mother no longer has to worry about me being eaten by empty ghosts." ”
"Since the oil lamp can restrain the empty ghosts, we just need to keep the oil lamp on. When it gets closer, flash it hard!" said Old Dream.
"It's not that simple. Chu Ge came out and poured a basin of cold water, "Take a look at how much oil is left in your oil lamp?"
“98%。 The eldest lady said.
“96%。 Old Dream said.
“97%。 Chubby said.
"Do you know how much I have left?" Chu Ge said, "I still have 90% now." ”
Chubby's expression was surprised, "Why is your lamp oil used so quickly?"
"The durability of oil lamps is limited, in fact, when we light oil lamps, the lamp oil is always consumed. Chu Ge said with a serious expression: "Because I used the oil lamp to flash the empty ghost just now, I consumed the most lamp oil." ”
"If the oil of the oil lamp is reduced to zero, the oil lamp should be extinguished, and without the protection of the oil lamp, we are no match for that monster!" said the eldest lady.
"Yes. Chu Ge nodded, "So we must pay attention to the remaining oil from the oil lamp." ”
"If we get together, an oil lamp should be enough, so we can extend our time and go to the museum to look for clues. Old Dream said.
"In that case, the efficiency is just too slow. Chu Ge shook his head.
"It's better for us to split up, so it should be more efficient. Chubby said.
"But this will drain our lamp oil as quickly as possible, and if we can't find a way to defeat the empty ghost before the oil is all depleted, the mission will fail. Chu Ge shook his head again.
"This won't work, that won't work, will we just stand here and wait to be eaten by the empty ghosts?"
Hearing everyone's discussion, the eldest lady's eyes became serious, "I have an idea......
