Volume 2 The Walker Patrols the Seas Chapter 162 The Castle in the Moonlight (17)
The whole castle is like an apartment, and the first floor of the castle does not have so many branching corridors, but many large and small rooms are divided around it.
There is a bad change lurking in Su Wei's body, the consequence may be that he will turn into a blood corpse, and after turning into a blood corpse, he will lose his mind and directly judge failure, or whether there will be other situations Several people are not clear, but it will definitely not be a good thing.
Su Wei was pressed for time, she moved more quickly, and directly broke into a room on the east side of the first floor, Jiang Ling followed, but after two minutes, the two people who had not found anything walked out.
William, on the other hand, also walked out of the next room, and he shook his head slightly: "It seems that someone has come, and there is nothing useful." ”
Su Wei didn't say a word, and walked into a room again.
Jiang Ling was afraid that Su Wei would have something to do, so he hurriedly followed, while William acted separately from them and walked into another room.
In a corner of this room, Su Wei saw an inscription, which was tribal script.
"Maybe death is also a relief, everyone is buried together in this castle we built with our own hands, maybe it is the arrangement of fate, no one can escape."
After reading these lines, Su Wei quickly got up and continued to the next room, while telling William about that passage at the door.
William said: "There is also a message in the house I saw, which is a common text in the mainland, which says: 'For the sake of senior brother, it is worth sacrificing many people. ’”
Jiang Ling pondered carefully when he heard this, but Su Wei got up again and went to another room, but he didn't get any useful messages after that.
Until a bloody bat corpse was found in a room, and a blood-colored magic circle stump on the wall.
"The last piece." Jiang Ling and Su Wei looked at the stump of the magic circle, and put this piece together with the other four pieces in their memory, and a complete magic circle took shape in their minds.
[Complete the side quest (Scarlet Circle), get 30 points for the quest reward, and successfully activate the hidden plot. 】
As the prompt for the completion of the task was completed, Su Wei's face suddenly changed slightly, and he said, "The main quest has been updated." ”
Jiang Ling has not activated the main quest so far, and naturally he has not received a hint of the change of the main quest, but has only received the reward of the side quest. He hurriedly asked, "What's the update?"
"It becomes optional." Su Wei said.
William also came over from the side, and Jiang Ling continued to ask, "What do you mean?" ”
"At present, you can choose the main line of [Kill the Descendants of the Blood Demon] to cover the current main line." Su Wei spoke.
"Oh?" Jiang Ling was surprised, and then thought: "That's going to go directly to the plot of the battle, and besides, what the hell is this blood demon descendant?" Is that the Bloodmancer? ”
"This is a bit suspicious." Su Wei said this, then looked at William on the side and asked, "Are you the same?" ”
William's face was flat, and he nodded when he heard the words.
Su Wei paused for a moment, and then continued: "The content of the mission is the same as the title, killing the evil blood warlock who contains the blood of the blood demon. The quest rewards 50 points, and there are 70 points for winning, which means that if you participate in a kill and are the top three who complete the task, then you can get 120 points, which seems to mean that if three players complete the task before you, you also have at least 50 points to take. ”
After speaking, Su Wei glanced at William.
William nodded, "That's what it literally means." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Ling responded, and then had some doubts, if everyone's task is to kill the Blood Demon Descendant, then the condition for the completion of the task is that the Blood Demon Descendant will die. At the same time as he dies, the task is judged to be completed, but then everyone is completed at the same time, how do you distinguish the concept of 'top three'?
Here William rubbed his shoes with his head down at the door, and he had just stepped on some blood without noticing. At this point, he spoke, "Then hurry up." ”
Jiang Ling and Su Wei also followed William out of the house.
Jiang Ling thought about the question just now, and then he suddenly realized a key point, that is, this main quest is replaceable, and he can also choose not to replace the current main quest of "reaching the blood pool". Thinking that the plot that the current main quest may face does not need to be with this so-called 'Descendant of the Blood Demon', and which main line the player takes may not be the same, so the conditions for completing the quest are also different, so there will be no situation where the quest is completed at the same time.
Oh, I haven't activated the main quest yet, and I don't know if triggering the hidden plot without activating the main quest will be different from Su Wei's situation. Jiang Ling turned his head and wanted to discuss with Su Wei whether he wanted to stain the bone bottle with blood, but who knew that Su Wei suddenly put his hand on his abdomen.
Jiang Ling just wanted to ask her if she was uncomfortable, but saw that Su Wei's face remained unchanged, but there was a hidden move in her hand, only to see her five fingers twisted together, turning her hand into a 'chicken mouth' shape, and then without waiting for Jiang Ling to ask, she turned her hand over again, and her five fingers stretched out and turned into palms.
This move was a little inexplicable, Jiang Ling didn't understand it for a while, but Jiang Ling could confirm two points, the first Su Wei must have deliberately shown it to himself, it was not hand cramps or unconscious boring movements. Second, Su Wei was obviously very hidden, and he was carrying William behind his back.
So Jiang Ling turned his head quietly and began to think. After a while, Jiang Ling suddenly realized what Su Wei meant, and his eyes changed slightly.
That's not the 'chicken mouth' and the palm, that's the numbers seven and five, and the meaning of flipping the palm is that seven and five are upside down.
The allusion is that when Su Wei was just reading the task reward, he reversed the task reward of 50 points and the winning reward of 70 points.
She did it on purpose, in order to test William.
And the result proved that William didn't notice that Su Wei had read the wrong mission content at all, because he didn't get the hint of this main quest update at all!
Jiang Ling then remembered one thing, that is, not everyone can trigger every side quest, from William said that he had not been to the fifth floor, it can be understood that William did not take the task of [Scarlet Array] at all, so although Jiang Ling and Su Wei completed the task just now, he did not.
His main quest is still [Find the Blood Pool].
Judging from Su Wei's words and performance, she has already chosen to replace the task.
So next, it is highly likely that the direct mission goals of the two are different, and even, may be contradictory.
Willian may not be his teammate next.
At this moment, a chill floated in Jiang Ling's heart.
William turned his head to look at Jiang Ling and suddenly asked, "What did you think of?" ”
Jiang Ling coughed lightly, did not panic, and replied calmly: "I was wondering if there are two castle masters in this castle, could one be a descendant of the Blood Demon and the other be an Evil Blood Warlock?" ”
This question was not said casually by Jiang Ling, but this idea did flash in his mind just now, and it was reasonable to say it at this time.
Sure enough, William was no longer suspicious, and nodded and said: "This guess also has some truth, but judging from the current clues, it is unlikely that the previous castle lord is still alive." ”
Passing by the gate at this time, Jiang Ling asked, "Do you want to see if we can go out?" ”
"It's unlikely to get out, what's the use of going out, and the main quest isn't for you to escape." Su Wei said.
Jiang Ling heard that Su Wei meant to be in a hurry to complete the task, so as not to cause trouble, and it also contained the meaning of reminding Jiang Ling of the 'main task'. At present, William's main quest is very likely to have a disagreement with her, she wants to complete the main quest, William's side has to make plans as soon as possible, not to mention that she has the risk of turning into a bloody corpse, and time is running out.
Although Jiang Ling is naturally more willing to help Su Wei, but at present, what William's task is is not clear, it is unwise to make a rash move, and William is obviously on guard, with his strength, to be honest, if Zhou Yu is not summoned, even if he joins forces with Su Wei, Jiang Ling is not sure of victory.
"Let's see, what if there's a clue?" Jiang Ling reminded Su Wei that the situation was unclear, so don't do it yet.
And it is not difficult to guess that William probably thinks like this at this time, his [Finding the Blood Pool] is just a pre-task, and it will inevitably be triggered in the next stage, and if it does not conflict with Su Wei's task after it is triggered, then there is still the possibility of cooperation. So he is also waiting for the arrival of the next stage of the mission, and then decides whether to risk tearing his face with the two.
Curious, Jiang Ling trotted to the door and tried to push it open, but there was a rusty but still solid iron lock on it, which could not be opened.
Jiang Ling patted the lock that was almost the size of a palm, and sighed lightly, and then he suddenly noticed that there were words on the lock - "Here, we are the king." ”
"What the hell?" Jiang Ling frowned: "Here we are the king?" ”
His first reaction was that this sentence did not match the other clues found in the entire script at all, and the other words were all in the style of sadness, misery, and hatred, but this one seemed to be a lot more domineering.
After a while, Jiang Ling realized something, such words seemed to be unclear, but as long as you first considered who said it, it would be much clearer.
"Could it be that the castle lord said that? But why does the castle lord use 'we'? Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment, and then thought: "What did the people in the tribe say? No, who is in the mood to pretend to be dead..."
Here William spoke: "Make sure you can't open it, let's go." ”
"Okay." Jiang Ling answered, turned around and explored the last two rooms with the two of them.
During this time, several blood bats flew up from the basement, but there were also a few blood bats flying in, which is enough to see that this is the destination where the blood bats gather.
The three of them gathered at the entrance to the basement and looked at the stairs leading downstairs, which was pitch black, as if there was endless darkness going down from here. Jiang Ling opened his mouth and said, "If there are no other clues, let's go down." ”
Su Wei and William didn't say anything for a while, but they both nodded.
In fact, in the last room, Su Wei found another passage in a corner, which said: "Senior brother specialized in formation back then, and was criticized by the elders for being sideways, but I didn't expect it to come in handy this time. ”
This passage was written on a handkerchief, and the content of it was obviously very important, but Su Wei stuffed it into his clothes when he got it, and he didn't show it to William, nor did he have time to show it to Jiang Ling.
And William rubbed the blood on his feet at the door of the room in the last corner of the magic circle, and actually used the blood on his feet to cover up a line of text on the ground, without showing it to Jiang Ling and Su Wei.
The three of them had their own thoughts and were about to go to the basement entrance.
Jiang Ling muttered in his heart: "There is also a player and a disciple of the Southern Yan Martial Sect, could it be that you are all down there?" ”
