Chapter 202: Scarlet Manor
He Fei found something, found something unusual, or found a terrifying change!
The maid, the maid who had only been immobilized by a spell, her whole body, both her clothes and her body under it, were shining in the light of the candles on both sides of the walls.
For reflection, as we all know, unless sweaty, the human body itself is not reflective, the same is true for clothes made of ordinary fabrics, as for the things that can be clearly reflected, in addition to mirrors, glass, water and other well-known things, many objects can also reflect light of different intensities, such as reflective metal, and such as clean and shiny desktops, etc., not only that, there is also a substance in this world that can also be weakly reflected under the light, that is......
Wax!
Yes, when it comes to wax, the first thing that comes to mind is candles, in the eyes of ordinary people, wax seems to have no other role than to make candles, this subjective consciousness is wrong, in the real world He Fei has accompanied his family to visit the wax museum, so of course college students know that wax has another artistic use, that is, to use a variety of different colors of wax by the artist's hand to make a variety of realistic wax figures.
And at this moment, through the observation of both eyes, He Fei found ...... At present, the maid who is frozen in the video has a little oily shiny under the reflection of the surrounding candlelight! That faint but very textured vision, that kind of subconscious feeling that is quite impactful, this, this ...... The frozen-spirited maid in front of her is no different from the anthropomorphic wax figures in the wax museum!
If that's as expected, then that's ...... The maid was somehow transformed into a wax figure in solidification, a wax figure that only had an anthropomorphic form but was actually lifeless!!
Groov!
Suddenly coming back to his senses, He Fei's heart trembled suddenly, and at the same time, Ye Wei, who was sitting in the front row of him and closer to the screen, seemed to have similar thoughts as the young man, and his body shook in the same way!
呲,呲呲......
At this moment, before some executors in front of the screen guessed anything else in their hearts, the originally bright and clear screen in front of them also chose to dim quickly at this moment, that is to say, the maid's solidification scene is the last picture of the whole video, the screen first darkened rapidly, and it didn't take long for the maid's oily solidified body to disappear with the gradual dimming of the screen, the screen became darker and darker, and the screen returned to the previous black after more than ten seconds, and as the screen completely turned black, Several lines of blood-red text also slowly appeared in everyone's field of vision:
Mission Name: Scarlet Manor.
Location: Halton Manor, United Kingdom.
Mission Objectives: In addition to surviving in Halton Manor for 5 days, the executor must also solve the supernatural events in the manor within 5 days, once the task time limit is reached, if the supernatural events are not solved, the task will be judged to be a failure, and all members of the mission will be wiped out.
Non-mandatory side quests: Ensure that Lisa does not die for 5 days, and each executor will receive an additional 5 survival points after the mission ends.
Tips: The era of this supernatural mission is 1643 A.D., the location is the Marquis de Mel's Mansion (Halton Manor) in the Plains of Clossau, England, in order to allow the executor to quickly integrate into the mission, after entering the mission world, all the executors will be given the corresponding status, the executor will stay in the Marquis' Mansion as a special guest, and the scorpion will carry out indiscriminate attacks on the entire manor owner (including the executor) within 5 days, and with the passage of time, the frequency and intensity of the attack of the tail scorpion will gradually increase as the end of the mission period increases.
Difficulty: Upper Intermediate.
Note (1): After completing the mission, all surviving performers will receive 5 survival points.
Note (2): After completing the mission, the team will receive one of the exclusive keys to the Hell Reincarnation Station.
………
The text message disappeared after about a minute on the screen, then went dark, then turned black completely, and when the screen went black, the lights in the carriage that had been extinguished for a long time also came back on. This is the end of the video preview.
But......
Although the video has ended, the lights of the carriage have returned to brightness, but most of the executors who are currently in the No. 1 carriage have shocked expressions, whether they are newcomers or veterans, this time they are all shrouded in a complex feeling, and it is not impossible to forcibly describe it as a sense of horror, after all, everyone who watched the video knows that the upcoming task will definitely not be simple, which is most obvious in the 4 newcomers who have never performed a supernatural mission, Especially the scene where the red man grabbed the maid can be said to have really scared these newcomers enough, if the three male newcomers can barely maintain their composure, then the female teacher Wang Huifang, who is already afraid of the supernatural task and is afraid of death, has already trembled like chaff, if it weren't for so many people sitting with her around, this woman would have cried on the spot.
However, for a group of veterans who have been trained for a long time, they don't care too much about whether the video is scary or not, and what really makes them care about it at present is other aspects, which can be divided into two points in general.
First, through the observation of the video just now, even the senior who is slow to react can see it at this time, that is, the mantis in the mission is definitely not an ordinary msalt, although this description sounds a little awkward, but from the video, it can be seen that its weirdness has now reached an extreme, not to mention the way of life that cannot and cannot be known at present, a crucial clue can be seen from the details seen in the video alone:
The ...... of the scorpion Possess the ability to transform living people into wax figures!!
Creeps! The real sense of creepy, perhaps this is the key to the previous description of this crab is unusual, and its killing methods are also very different from the crabs in the previous supernatural missions, after all, most of the impressions of the crab can often be described as a violent killing with blood flying when they kill people.
As for the second point, it has nothing to do with the mantis, but it is still a concern, and that is......
The Hell Reincarnation Station and the Exclusive Key mentioned at the end of the quest information!
Yes, putting aside the supernatural quest for a moment, I didn't expect that this time there were two new words in the mission information that had never appeared before:
Hell Reincarnation Station, exclusive key.
The second word is very easy to understand, the key, everyone knows what the key is, but what does the 'hell reincarnation station' mean in the front? Although they don't understand the vocabulary very well, after a little pondering, everyone still has a vague hunch that these two words are very likely to have a great relationship with the hell train and even the cursed space.
