"Welcome to all dream travelers, you have worked hard and worked hard, please come with me." The woman gently pushed open the golden door, her gaze lingering on a short time, and she smiled softly, "This is the living room, please come in." ”

Qi Ming has been paying attention to their every move since Ren Yao and his party appeared, and when the woman appeared, Ren Yao and them were all holding props, and they all looked like dream travelers rather than ghosts. Moreover, Chiyo Dong's grievance bell has been held in his hand and has not been withdrawn, and when the gate collapsed and they appeared, the grievance bell did not ring, which proved that they were really not ghosts.

It's just that...... Will there be two groups of people working on the same task at the same time? This has never happened before? Could it be that this is a trick set up in the mission? I'll have to find a chance to check it out later.

"Brother Ren, that woman...... Isn't that the person on the burned painting? Is she the god who made a wish? Behind Ren Yao stood a girl with long brown hair and a pale yellow dress, she covered her mouth with her hands, tried to keep her voice low and whispered.

“Avarice…… She's the woman on the self-portrait, and there's no wrong about it. Chiyo Dong stood beside Jun Yao and said in an extremely affirmative tone, "The final boss in the hidden mission has appeared, and it seems that we are close to the truth." ”

The woman stood aside, looking at all of them lightly, not verbally urging them to hurry in, nor doing other superfluous movements to guide them, she just stood there, like a spectator.

"Ren Yao, are we going in?" A girl with long dark blue hair in Ren Yao's team held a gun in her hand, her right hand holding the gun in the air, and the other hand on her right wrist.

"Wait." Ren Yao didn't look back at her, just said coldly.

"Let's go." Jun Yao stood in front of the far left, and when she was in a stalemate with the woman, she made full use of her advantageous position to look at the living room inside.

It was a very richly decorated room, with a three-sided leather sofa in the center, which seemed to be the best materials and the best workmanship, and the table in front of the sofa was a whole piece of white marble, and the four corners of the table were carved with lifelike roses. On the wall behind the sofa hangs a golden clock, and the numerals on the dial are supposed to be decorated with precious stones of various colors. In the cabinet below the clock are seven silver candlesticks, as well as a stack of paper and a quill.

This room looks normal, which is in line with the decoration style of the castle.

While making sure that everything was normal in the living room decoration, Jun Yao also judged that there was no danger for the time being.

So she chose to listen to the woman's words, and took the lead to approach the living room first, and the woman watched her movements, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a hint of nonchalant.

Qi Ming naturally believed Jun Yao's judgment, and there was indeed nothing that happened when Jun Yao walked in, so Qi Ming and Chiyo Dong glanced at each other, and both of them walked in. After that, Yi An, Ling Feng, Li Hua and Chen Yao, the four of them stepped into the living room one after another, and the woman actually let out a pleasant laugh after seeing Qi Ming and his party all enter the living room, this sudden laughter made Ren Yao and the others, who thought they were safe, dare not make a move.

The woman walked slowly into the living room, pointing in the direction of the sofa, "Everyone sit down here and rest, all the dream travelers outside, what are you still hesitating about?" ”

It wasn't until Qi Ming and his entourage of seven people sat down on the sofa that Ren Yao and his party walked into the living room.

"Oh, villain." Yi An sat next to Jun Yao, she saw Ren Yao's behavior of using them as live targets for experiments, and directly opened her mouth to mock, she did not lower her voice at all, so everyone present could hear it. Ren Yao's face was a little embarrassed, but the girl in the pale yellow dress behind him said dissatisfiedly, "You guys are so showy, let you get better first?" Besides, life and death, is it wrong to be careful? In the form of a virgin. ”

"Yo, it's a brainless little girl. How old are you, little girl? Haven't graduated from college yet? Where are you studying? Sister, how old are you, give you a reminder, don't lose your life just because you like it. Yi An scolded the girl eloquently, and Jun Yao couldn't close her mouth in surprise, because Yi An looked like a brutal mother-in-law in a bloody mother-in-law drama at eight o'clock in the evening.

Hey, Yi'an is so open-mouthed, no one cares? With a group of people who don't know if it's a person or a ghost, isn't it really polite to talk? What if the words irritate them and wipe us out?

Ren Yao sat down, raised his forehead and sighed, "Yi'an, you don't need to be so hostile every time, right?" ”

"Huh, what? Can't stand it? People who have done something wrong, don't think that a word of sorry will be forgiven. Besides, you didn't think you were doing anything wrong? I didn't even reflect, do you say this to me? Yi An continued to taunt, Jun Yao seemed to open his mouth to stop the intensification of this atmosphere, but Chiyo Dong on the other side quietly grabbed his hand and squeezed it. Jun Yao looked at her, only to see Chiyo Dong shaking his head, and Qi Ming was just lying on the sofa without saying a word.

Yi An and this man named Ren Yao seem to have a big holiday, and they all know about this festival Qi Ming Chiyodong, and they think that Yi An's behavior is not necessary to be stopped.

So Jun Yao didn't do anything superfluous, just sat quietly on the sofa.

"You!" Ren Yao looked angry, his right hand was tightly pressed as if he was about to grasp something, but he suddenly let go and shook his head self-deprecatingly. The last dark blue-haired girl with a gun who came in raised her gun, "Yi'an, Ren Yao can tolerate you, it doesn't mean that I can." Since you are so obsessed, why don't you go down and accompany him? ”

"Bang-" The girl pulled the trigger, and the silver bullet flew towards Yi An, and suddenly all the lights in the living room went out, and everyone's vision turned black, and after a few seconds, there was no woman's exclamation, but the sound of something being broken.

The seven silver candlesticks on the table behind the couch suddenly lit a flame.

The black-haired and white-dressed hostess had closed the golden door at some point, and she stood by the seven candlesticks, holding a pure white quill in her hand, and the dim light hit her face, beautiful and terrifying.

"Welcome to my Wishing House, fellow Dream Travelers. When you enter this wishing house, everything here belongs to me. The woman picked up one of the silver candlesticks and moved slowly around the drawing-room, "I know why you are here, here you can only take one thing with you if you make a wish, and of course, you must exchange one of your things for anything." ”

The woman stood in front of the girl with long dark blue hair, reached out and held her gun, the girl suddenly looked painful, and slowly slipped to the ground, "You-in front of me, don't be too arrogant." ”

"Irene! Are you okay? Ren Yao hurriedly reached out to help the girl, and the woman threw the gun beside her, smiling happily, "There are rooms in the castle where you can rest in peace, but each room can only stay for two hours, and there are not many safe rooms, just seven or eight." Ah, by the way, there are all kinds of strange things in this castle, and they can kill a lot, so you should be careful. ”

"If you have your wishes in mind, pray sincerely, and I will come to fulfill your wishes."

The woman placed the silver candlestick on the small round table by the door, and with a flick of it towards the ceiling, the lamp came back on.

"I hope you enjoy the remaining two days, and have fun."

The door was shut.

There was a long silence in the living room.

[Ladies and gentlemen, due to the error of the system parameters, the task is chaotic, and it has been corrected, the two sets of task data have been integrated, and it has been integrated to the end of the second round of ghost hunting, and an additional item will be given to each dream traveler after the end of the mission]

[The third ghost hunt will take place in 1 hour, duration: 5 hours]

[Remaining mission time: 2 days and 1 hour]

The cold electronic voice broke the silence, and the two teams finally stopped being suspicious of each other, Ren Yao let go of the hands that were interlaced in front of his chest, "Two teams of dream travelers have completed the same task, this is something that has never happened before, right?" Isn't it strange that there is such a bug in the system? ”

Qi Ming raised his hand and pushed his glasses, "You have completed the task more times than us, counting the novice task, it will be five times." What even you Ren Yao doesn't understand, we will know? ”

"Qi Ming, everyone is a teammate now, and you don't have to ...... Now, let's exchange tasks for a while. Ren Yao spread his hands helplessly, "In order to show sincerity, it can be regarded as an apology for what happened just now, let's talk first." ”

"Please." Qi Ming nodded and leaned back towards the sofa.

"Our mission is called 'Wish', and it is set in Shuocheng, which has been destroyed by a plague, and there are two conditions for victory: one is to survive until dawn, and the other is to solve the puzzle of the Wishing House. There were eight people participating in the mission, and we always wanted to win the first way, but we lost two team members in the third round of the ghost hunt, and the scale of the ghosts and the consumption of items were far beyond our expectations. We still have 1 day and 12 hours left in the previous mission, and after the third round of ghost hunting, we found the map related to the hidden mission, went to the house of the two mini-bosses Elsa John, and got four of Elsa's diaries, so we learned the secret of wishing, and then found a new map in the burned study, and came to the wishing house. Because we didn't have a key, we broke a floor-to-ceiling window on the first floor and broke in. ”

Qi Ming believed that Ren Yao didn't need to lie in these aspects, and there was no need for him to hide it in this regard, "The mission name, background, and winning conditions are exactly the same, the number of participants in the mission is eight, after the first round of ghost hunting, I met John, and a team member entered another space and died." We've only participated in one round of ghost hunting so far, and the remaining mission time is 2 days and 8 hours, and luckily for you, we found the map related to the hidden mission at the beginning, and I won't go into detail about the diary, but our team broke into the place where the past was repeated, took the oil painting that should have been burned, and put it together in its entirety. Since we found the mission key, we politely walked through the main door and entered. ”

Ren Yao was a little surprised, didn't he expect Qi Ming's team to be so strong? The game progressed about a day behind them, but they were just as good as they were when it came to hidden missions, if not better.

"You brought out the burnt oil painting in Elsa's study, the woman's self-portrait?" Ren Yao confirmed again.

"On the wall to the left of the door that went out of the living room, and I had just hung it up when the woman appeared." Seeing Qi Ming frowning, Jun Yao hurriedly opened his mouth to answer for him.

"You, ...... you?" Ren Yao saw Jun Yao's face and was a little puzzled.

"Shen Junyao, the novice Dream Traveler of this mission, and Chen Yao over there, are also novices." Chiyo Dong looked like "I just forgot to talk about it, but in fact, I don't think it's necessary", Jun Yao found out that starting from Yi'an, Qi Ming Chidai Dong including Ling Feng Lihua, who didn't speak but had been on guard, everyone really didn't give Ren Yao a good face at all.

What did this Ren Yao do to make everyone have such an attitude?

Jun Yao didn't understand, and she wasn't in a hurry to ask for an answer.

"By an additional note, most of the clues related to the hidden mission we have so far have been found by Jun Yao. Ren Yao, I warn you, although she is a newbie, and although we are obviously teammates now, if you dare to fight her idea, I will definitely kill you here. Yi An said through gritted teeth.

Ren Yao seemed to be a little surprised, and quickly got up quietly, looked at Shen Junyao twice more before leaving, and then waved his hand, "Let's go and see that self-portrait, see what this woman means, we can't get out of this ancient castle, the so-called ghost hunting, probably the entire ancient castle as a place." Are you going to find a safe house? If there is a discovery, we will contact us at any time. ”

"Hmm." Qi Ming replied coldly, Ren Yao didn't say anything, and his teammates followed him away without saying a word.

Ren Yao and his party had already left the living room, the door closed automatically, and Yi An scolded, "Phew! I met him here! If I hadn't had so many items to deduct, I'd have killed him in this mission. ”

"Yi'an! You calm down. Ling Feng, who had been silent, spoke at this time, and he scolded Yi An, who was a little out of control, "You've already tried, haven't you?" He has a strong life-saving prop in his hand, although he doesn't know what it is, but the prop that can be offset by the number of tasks is definitely not something you can fight against now. ”

Yi An slammed his fist on the sofa, and then let out a long sigh of relief, "That's it, it's not the time yet." ”

Jun Yao sat silently on the sofa, took a sip of black tea, and nodded, as if she appreciated the taste.

"I'm sorry for letting you see Yi An like this, there is a reason for it, and it's not convenient to say more now." Chiyo Dong smiled a little awkwardly, and Jun Yao shook his head, "It's okay, everyone has something they want to hide." When it's time to say it, that's the answer, and if it's not time to say it or can't say it, that's the secret. ”

Qi Ming carefully observed the silver candlestick held by the woman, and compared it with the remaining six candlesticks on the table, and after confirming that it was just the one she took at random, there was nothing special, and then sighed, "Ren Yao is right, we have officially entered the hidden quest line, you can take a look at your quest page, the relevant rules have changed." The third round of ghost hunting is about to begin, so we're going to work in groups just in case. ”

"Yi An Lingfeng is in a group, Li Hua and Chen Yao are in a group of you, and then Jun Yao will be with us. Grab these two darts and notify each other as soon as you find a safe house. Chiyo Dong handed over his two darts to Yi An and Li Hua, so the three groups began to act separately.

Jun Yao still clicked on the task page to check it.

[Main Quest: Survive until dawn in Shuocheng, Ghost Hunting Progress: The second round is to be opened, the number of safe houses remaining to use: 4 (locked)]

[Main quest (fixed): Survive until dawn in Shuocheng, Ghost Hunt Progress: Round 3 to be opened, number of safe houses remaining to be used: 3 (locked)]

[Hidden Mission: Survive until dawn in the closed castle, Ghost Hunting Progress: Round 3 to be opened, the number of safe houses remaining to be used: 4]

[Hidden Mission: Unlock the Secret of the Wishing House]

The first main quest is the quest they have been working on before, and the second main quest should have been fixed after a bug in the system, but both quests have become gray locked, and only the two hidden quests below are lit.

Sure enough, the secret of the wishing house is far from being as simple as imagined, but the woman named Avarice said that everyone can use any of their own things to make a wish and take another thing away from barter?

"Qi Ming, this woman asked us to make a wish, so the secret of unlocking the wishing house in the mission will be the secret of this wish?" Jun Yao asked.

"I also have this guess, and I see that she means the principle of barter. It's just that in the hidden mission story we restored before, the fathers made a wish, which was the price specified by this woman, and she told us that we could exchange anything we wanted, and there was no limit to what could be exchanged. This is so strange that it is really puzzling. Qi Ming replied.

"I think maybe there's a clue in this castle? There are a lot of oil paintings in the whole mission, and you don't find that the hall, room, or hallway are all covered with oil paintings. I think there might be a studio in this castle, and the clue might be in the studio. ”

"That makes sense, then we'll wait until after this ghost hunt to find out." As soon as Qi Ming finished speaking, he stopped, and he looked at the house next to the stairs at the end of the corridor, "Safe house......

It was a blood-red door, with the black word "safe" written on it, and a portrait of Avarice hung next to it. Qi Ming and the three of them approached to see, the painting was different from the one they got before, the woman in it was walking with an oil lamp, and the background was a somewhat gloomy forest, she was still wearing a white dress, but her face was serious.

At this moment, Dong felt that her dart had been broken, so she clicked to confirm the teleportation and disappeared in front of Qi Ming and Jun Yao.

"Looks like they've found a safe house too, and I'll use the dragon bell to gather after ten minutes."

Ren Yao and Jian Yilin were observing the hanging oil paintings in the corridor on the second floor, as if they suddenly remembered something, Yilin opened her mouth and asked, "I met Yi An in the mission this time, do you want to solve her?" She has always remembered Zhao Fusheng's affairs, and she has calculated you in the task before, what if she calculates you again this time? You don't have enough to use that item anymore. ”

"Heh, it's just a clown jumping off the beam, the difficulty of this task is only two stars, and Qi Ming Chiyo Dong is here, it's not easy to start, and I don't want to grudge with them. Forget it this time, don't worry, I will never let her go next time. ”

"Now that you've got an idea, I don't have much more to do. That newcomer, Shen Junyao, is worth noting. Jian Yilin was a little serious, "I can't see her information, but I can see the information of another newcomer's child very clearly." ”

"In other words, your 'Sage's Eye' has not expired, but Shen Junyao is very special?"

[Eye of the Sage: A special prop that parasitizes in the eyes of the Dream Traveler, with no cooling. You can view the basic information of the Dream Traveler, including basic personal information, the number of missions participated, the number of items held, the progress of the mission completion, additional status, etc., but you cannot view further details. 】

"Yes, her information is unknown except for her name and age."

"It's really strange, Fang Cai Yi'an also said that the reason why they hid the mission so quickly was all up to her, so this Shen Junyao is not an ordinary person...... It's just that Qi Ming can't have thought of this layer, Shen Junyao is still alive, and they still trust her very much, at least to prove that she is a human being, and she has no intention of harming us. ”

"Speaking of which, although that kid is a newcomer, there's nothing worth paying attention to when he's younger, but he actually has a mutation buff on him."

"Silence buff? The kid really didn't speak, but he couldn't speak, and the kid couldn't help much. ”

"Hmm."

"Don't tell anyone about this matter first, whether it's Shen Junyao or that child."

"I know."

Ren Yao and Jian Yilin saw a blood-red door with the word "safe" in black, so a piece of chalk appeared in Jian Yilin's hand, she drew a strange formation on the wall next to her, got up and put the chalk back in her pocket, and checked around the formation again, "Confirm that it is correct." ”

[Pan Shen's Brush: Draw a formation anywhere to determine the teleportation location. When you are in a non-formation position, you can recite the spell "O wind of the grassland, bring blessings" to teleport to the location of the formation. There is only one formation on the field that is directly teleported, and if more than one formation is randomly teleported, there can only be a maximum of three formations in the whole field. 】

Ren Yao noticed the painting on the wall, a painting related to the hostess, she was dressed in a white dress, sitting on the grass full of flowers, holding a roll of parchment in her hand. She tilted her head slightly, her face was serious, as if she was looking at someone, and behind her was an old castle covered with green vines.

This painting is different from the self-portrait hanging outside the living room, it has a little more life, but the hostess does not smile.

Could this painting be a hint?

Ren Yao wanted to take the painting down and take a look.

"Knock-knock-knock-" Three heavy bells rang, Ren Yao opened the page to confirm the location information sent by Qi Ming, so he took Jian Yilin's hand and ran downstairs.

"There is also a portrait hanging at the door of that safe house, which is related to Avarice, with a sedan chair behind her, and she is holding a folding fan, and she looks mockingly at the sedan chair bearer, with the full moon in the background." Qi Ming's team of seven people had already gathered together, and Chiyo Dong was talking about something, when he saw Ren Yao and Jian Yilin hurriedly coming down from upstairs, they tacitly stopped talking. After a while, the other four members of Ren Yao's team also rushed over.

A girl in a pale yellow dress holds a short-haired girl with eyes behind them a teenager in a white T-shirt and a girl in a school uniform with a double ponytail. Jian Yilin glanced at them and smiled at Ren Yao, "Everyone is here." ”
