Chapter 417: Danger in the Dark

Suddenly, the roar was gone, and the aura that had been hiding in the dark corners disappeared without a trace, as if it had never been there.

What's going on? Xiao Yan ran over quickly and found that there was nothing there.

"Minos, one more inspiration, I want to know where this thing went!"

[Uh, okay~ But the other party has erased his breath, and your perception attribute will be deducted by 15 points when deciding. 】

【. rd=61/(40-15), failed. Oh, you didn't find anything. 】

"Let me try!" Sonia surveyed the dark surroundings, "My perception is okay too. ”

But it's also dangerous to perceive it...... Xiao Yan still remembered that when Wang Xijun first started in World Four, just because he stared at the mayfly on the corner of the table for a while, he encountered the terrifying existence of killing the wizard professor in seconds.

"No, we're unprepared. Sonya, get out of here, let's go to the master bedroom and meet the others. Xiao Yan grabbed the girl's arm and hurried up the stairs.

The Luzon maid just now didn't know where she had gone. The two left the underground power distribution room and walked towards the main building, faintly hearing a burst of screams coming from the direction of the master bedroom.

Xiao Yan and Sonia ran quickly through the corridor to the first floor of the main villa, only to see Alice standing by the open door and shivering.

Consul Zichuan was lying on his back on the carpet in the room, and a large hole had been dug in his chest and heart. Mrs. Masako Shikawa was lying beside him, her neck already twisted to 90 degrees. Both of them are lifeless.

The room's window facing the garden was smashed and opened outward, crackling in the wind.

"What about Mr. Fang, Uncle Li, and the maid?" Sonia looked nervously around the room.

Judge Ji Lixin stood on crutches and looked up at the corpse.

"When we came here with the consul's wife, the judge and the consul had just come down from the upper floor," said Elise, with a look of horror on his face, "and the consul's wife and her husband came to this study to say a few words, and not long after the judge and we walked away, we heard a scream, and this was what we looked like when we entered. ”

Xiu Li, who was present, bit his lip tightly and leaned his back against the wall to scan the crowd.

Xiao Yan fell to one knee and carefully searched the nearby ground and walls to see if he could find anything.

In a pool of thick blood fell the small statue of Devillelock, but there was no murder weapon at the scene. Blood splattered everywhere, but there were no visible footprints on the floor.

"A very terrifying fatal wound," Judge Ji said, glancing at Xiao Yan, "the murderer has a terrifying murder weapon in his hand, and his strength is amazing. It would be unwise to go out and search for the murderer now. ”

Xiao Yan cautiously walked to the window and looked out, except for the occasional flash of lightning under the dark sky, he couldn't see the situation outside clearly.

Xiu Li clasped his hands in front of his chest, "The murderer is hidden in the dark, and searching on a strange island on a thunderstorm is self-defeating, let's get together and wait for the weather to improve and find police support." ”

"Well, the killer can't escape this island," Sonia agreed, "but it also means that we could still be attacked." ”

"By the way, what about Captain Hao and Miss Lina?" Alice found a crowbar out of nowhere to hold in his arms.

[Let's get inspired!] 】

【. rd=9/40, success. 】

Xiao Yan stared at the darkness outside the window, and in the flash of light, something terrible seemed to be watching him from afar. With the help of a brief bright light, Xiao Yan seemed to see the curved ram horns and the strong black body.

This hallucinatory image made him feel a great sense of fear and threat even by standing by the window.

You vaguely see something, and the chaotic and evil form has wounded your spirit and reason. 】

【. RD=83/40, SAN value verification, failed. You lost 1 SAN value, the full value is 100, and the current value is 99. 】

β€œhat! What is this!? Xiao Yan felt a slight dizziness, but this sudden situation made him almost jump up, "San is worth something, isn't it something in the dimensional world?" ”

[That's right!] Do you think that the corrosion of your world by the energy of the plane is a casual talk? 】

"Okay, let's go find Mr. Fang," Xiao Yan left the window, and the faint dizziness and strong sense of crisis disappeared immediately, "Let's get together tonight and don't separate." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Excellency," said Uncle Li, "the lord is unwell and resting in the bedroom upstairs, and does not want to be disturbed. ”

β€œοΌοΌŸοΌŸβ€ Everyone present looked at Uncle Li with inexplicable and suspicious eyes.

"A consul is dead, do you think we can rest assured that Mr. Fang will stay in the bedroom?" Xiu Li raised his eyebrows and looked at the housekeeper with the condescending gaze of the eldest lady.

"The master's room is very safe, and ......" Uncle Li took out a pad, and Mr. Fang's picture popped up on the screen.

The owner of the island villa in the picture startled everyone. His face was pale, almost bloodless, his eyes were dark, and he was a dozen years older than he had been at dinner: "I'm very sorry, ladies and gentlemen, Your Excellency, but I need a break from a sudden attack of old illness.

"I already know about the tragedy that happened downstairs. The housekeeper will lead everyone to the living room to take shelter, which is very safe and well-stocked. Tomorrow morning, my sailors will come to the island and bring them back safely, while calling the police to search the island. ”

Without giving everyone time to ask questions, Mr. Fang cut off the video communication.

"It seems that we have no other choice but to go to the living room," Judge Ji shook his head helplessly, "I hope Mr. Fang has prepared brandy and coffee for us." ”

"Your needs will be met quickly, Your Excellency." Uncle Li bowed slightly.

The servants in this mansion have disappeared completely except for Uncle Li, and the maid who ran out of the living room just now is nowhere to be seen. Xiao Yan asked Uncle Li if he had seen the other servants, and the capable housekeeper said that the servants were all serving the master in the master bedroom.

Although they were not very satisfied with the status quo, they had no better choice but to walk towards the living room.

"Where have you all been? The villa was as empty as a haunted house! To everyone's surprise, Captain Holness and his girlfriend were already in the living room.

"We just came out of our respective rooms, and after passing the living room, we went to the master bedroom," Miss Xiuli said lightly, "but we didn't meet you at that time. ”

"We sheltered from the rain in the attic of the small two-story building in the garden," Lina was drenched, "and then the power went out, and there were strange screams, and we fled back in fear." ”

"Strange screams?"

"Well, it's like the roar of some kind of beast, but I've never heard it before, it's terrible," said the captain, "what about the consul and Mr. Fang?" ”

Sonia briefly recounted what had just happened, turning pale at the listens to the captain and his girlfriend.

"So, we're stranded on this stormy island, and we're constantly threatened by a homicidal maniac." The captain pondered for a moment, "I don't think we can sit still, Mr. Xiao, let's go find him out." ”

"Oh? Yes. Xiao Yan nodded with a smile.

Sonia hurriedly grabbed Xiao Yan's arm: "No, no, it's too dangerous, you don't know where the murderer is hiding, don't talk about this island, just this villa is not something that the two of you can complete the search." ”

"And what if we get attacked while you're away?" Xiu Li disagreed, "We don't have the same confidence in our skills as the two gentlemen. ”

"That's right." Judge Ji Lixin smiled and took a sip of brandy, "When the sky clears, we will summon the police all over the mountains and fields, and we will not let go of this murderer." ”

Before Captain Hao could speak, suddenly the light in the living room dimmed. There was a scream in the environment that suddenly lost its light.

Sonia grabbed Xiao Yan's arm tightly, and the two retreated towards the wall together, leaning against the cold wall before settling down.

There were eight of us...... Xiao Yan took Sonia into his arms and calmed her down, while trying to sense the slightest movement in the hall.

[You are listening intently, do you want to add the help of inspiration?] 】

"Of course." Xiao Yan said vigilantly.

【. rd=54/40, listen, fail. 】

[Due to the suddenness and chaos of the incident, you did not judge much valuable information. 】

"Hell! Is my perception attribute too low? How always fail! Xiao Yan found that the success rate of the 40-point attribute in the judgment of 1-100 was a bit unacceptable, "Isn't my perception just a decoration?" ”

[You can let the respected chosen ones perceive it!] Her perceptual attributes are high. 】

At this moment, Xiao Yan realized Minos's malice. Indeed, Sonia came to judge the success rate higher. However, the danger they faced was beyond common sense, and Sonya, who was very weak in combat power, felt that there was likely to be irreparable results.

Minoan beings are not necessarily on the same side as us. They also did not explain their motives and purposes. After Xiao Yan figured it out, he stopped Sonya's attempt, and was unwilling to take risks even if he lacked information.

In the panic, there was the sound of ping-pong, and judging from the position, it was Alice and Xiuli who knocked over the small table on the side, smashing wine glasses and tableware all over the ground.

On the other side of the living room, Judge Ji who was sitting on the sofa and Uncle Li who was standing on the side did not make any movement. As for what the captain and his girlfriend were doing, Xiao Yan didn't know anything.

It's really inconvenient to be suppressed in this world! Xiao Yan thought with annoyance. The power outage just now is most likely man-made, and if someone had caused this power outage, then something would have definitely happened in this sudden darkness.

"Xiao Yan, I was just forced to pass a lucky verdict and passed." Sonia suddenly stood on tiptoe and leaned close to Xiao Yan's ear and said, "But I don't understand what this means?" ”

Fortunate? What is this for? In other words, the attribute of luck is still hidden.

A short scream erupted in the darkness and the sound of bones breaking, followed by Captain Holness's angry roar.

A corner of the living room lit up with a bright light, and Uncle Li took out a candle to illuminate the living room with a faint light.

In the faint light, they found a twisted and lifeless corpse lying on the ground.
