Chapter 43: The World in the Mirror (2)
Thinking of this, I thought about it. The www.biquge.info was just as the monster behind me was about to touch me, I hurriedly squatted down, and the monster behind me suddenly stretched out a hand to test if there was something in front of me, and the slender fingers swiped past my cheek, almost touching my body.
But the slap hit the monster in front of me in the face impartially, and in an instant the two monsters tore apart above my head, and I took the opportunity to roll over and escape from the house.
I managed to escape to the end of the hallway, and I looked back at the two torn monsters, flesh and stumps flying around. I wiped the cold sweat from my head and thought to myself, "I'm afraid these things use the sense of touch to sense their targets, so they will inevitably kill each other." But why are these things here, and what's going on with those unjust souls outside? ”
Thinking about it, I looked around and noticed that there was a spiral staircase on the side, which seemed to lead to the second floor. "If I continue to stay here, those monsters will definitely continue to search for prey after the fight, and it will be even more difficult for me to deal with it at that time, so I might as well go upstairs and see if I can find any clues."
I muttered to myself as I made my way up the stairs to the second floor. Compared to the first floor, which is more like a floor for servants such as housekeepers, the wall decoration is more detailed and exquisite. But I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say it.
I walked cautiously, my eyes searching around at the same time, for fear of missing any clues. But the further I went, the more I felt panicked, and I patted my face with my hand to try to keep myself as calm as possible.
But the panic that grew stronger, mixed with uneasiness, made it impossible for me to calm down at all. At this moment, a strong feeling of pressure came from behind, and beads of sweat oozing from his forehead slid down his cheeks and down his chin.
I slowly turned my head, and a huge human face appeared in front of me, staring at me with a weird smile, and from time to time there was a foul-smelling yellow liquid coming out of its mouth.
Its body was made up entirely of human stumps, like a pile of giant corpses that took up the corridor. It reached out a small hand that was disproportionate to its huge face, trying to grab me.
In desperation, I ran forward, as if all the protection mechanisms had been activated because of my intrusion.
As I ran, I grabbed whatever I could hold on to my neighborhood and threw it at the huge piece of flesh behind my back. But it was like a running train, and it could not stop it at all, and every wriggling of it made the whole castle tremble.
Seeing that I was about to run to a dead end at the end of the corridor, I clenched my hand and thought to myself, "Grandpa, if it is both horizontal and vertical, it is better for me to wake up and fight that piece of flesh to the death......
Just as I was about to plunge my sword into my chest, I swept it to a door next to it, and without thinking about it, I slammed into it by inertia. The large piece of meat outside the door whistled with a gust of wind, and then there was a violent tremor, presumably the piece of meat broke through the wall and flew out.
I relented, stood up and rubbed my shoulders, and was surprised to find that this was actually a room similar to an interrogation room, with all kinds of torture instruments hanging on the walls around it, and I also found that on the left wall, there was also a row of English written in blood. It means "on the way back"
It was obvious that the blood had only been written for a short time, and even the blood stains had not yet dried, and were still slowly flowing downward. "Obviously, someone deliberately left clues and wanted me to help him do something, and at the same time he didn't want others to understand, so he wrote more obscurely, and wanted me to guess."
I clutched my shoulders and continued to think, "The first layer is written 'let her find herself' and here it is written 'on the way back', since there are both the first and second layers, if there is a third layer, then the third layer should also have ......"
Thinking of this, I hurried out of the house and searched around the cluttered hallway. I searched all the possible places to set up the stairs, but there was nothing to go upstairs. "No, I saw it before I came in, there are at least three floors. Could it be that the third floor can only be reached from the other side?! ”
Thinking of this, I hurried in the direction of going downstairs. As soon as I reached the top of the stairs, I found four open rooms, filled with putrid blood and thick water, and a few remnants of severed limbs, which were supposed to be a combination of stumps stored in these four rooms. I covered my nose, endured the choking stench, and walked towards the first floor.
As soon as I got down to the stairs, a monster with a wide mouth approached. I was so anxious to go downstairs that I forgot that there might be a monster downstairs. I didn't have time to dodge, so I grabbed the sword in my hand and slashed it three or four times on the head.
But the monster was not only unharmed, but pounced on me, and I subconsciously turned around and wanted to run, but I didn't expect to tripped over the stairs, and the whole person threw itself on the stairs, knocking my nose bleeding.
At the moment, I didn't care about the pain at all, and climbed upstairs with my hands and feet. But the monster didn't intend to let me go, and chased after me. Suddenly, there was a "bang" and the bell rang again from the bell tower outside the castle, and the monster chasing me stopped moving and froze in place.
Seeing that my opportunity had come, I hurriedly raised my foot and kicked it down, then got up from the ground, bypassed the monster lying on the ground, and ran towards the corridor on the right.
I don't know if it's because the monsters were attracted by the bell, so they didn't come out. After a while, I made my way to the staircase in the corridor on the right. The series of desperate escapes, coupled with the long hours of silence and the sudden fright, made my mental and physical strength begin to develop in the worst direction.
I held on to the handrail of the staircase, gasping for breath, while looking at the spirit in my hand and thinking, "Wasn't this thing very powerful before, why can't it get here, does it also require vanity to use it?!" Thinking of this, I helplessly looked at the spirit in my hand and sighed. At this time, I felt a little relieved, and began to walk upstairs step by step.
After walking for a while, I realized that as I expected, I had walked twice the distance of the staircase to the top. As soon as I saw the three-story structure, I was stunned, almost everything was made up of human bones and human flesh. Even the carpets on the floor are full of human skins.
It was like a hell of flesh and blood, and I couldn't get my feet down, but in order to find clues, I gritted my teeth and stepped on it. As soon as I stepped on it, the soft ground sank in, and I felt like I was going to fall at any moment because I couldn't stand on my feet. But not this time I was vigilant, keeping an eye out for any movement that might happen around me.
I cautiously searched the surrounding room, choking on the pungent smell of blood, my eyes blackening and almost throwing up. At this moment, I stumbled upon a table made of white bones, with a brown book, which looked very eye-catching. Curious, I stepped forward, picked it up, and looked through it.
It reads in English like this:
Karin, perhaps it is her perennial pampering that makes her blood so sweet, I will cherish her well, and I hope she will be honored for it......
Corolla, greasy blood always arouses the desire for vegetarianism, take a good bath, I think I should eat some greens......
Olavini, little bitch, I'll show you what happens if you resist me, you can't escape my hands......
"It looks like it's a list of victims, but it looks like a kid named Olavini has run away and hasn't been found." Thinking about it, I seem to understand why someone would give me these tips.
Just as I was about to look further back and find some clues, a small note fell out of the page, and I hurriedly caught it with my hand.
I put down the book in my hand and opened the note, which read "At the third bell" in the same English script as the previous ones
"Let her find herself, on the way back, before the third bell strikes?" I kept repeating these three sentences in my head, trying to find some answers.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed my mind, and I frowned at the note in my hand, trying to keep myself calm and trying to connect all the clues I had gotten.
"First of all, 'let her find herself' may refer to the owner of this ancient castle, and according to the clues obtained now, it can be basically concluded that it is the bloody count in Hu Fang's story. And the second sentence 'on the way back' I came from the main gate of the manor to the current location, so if I go back, it is very likely that I will need to go back the same way, that is, there may be something on this road. ”
"As for the third sentence, 'at the time of the third bell' is well understood, and since I have heard two of them before, it is that at the third time I must do something to get me back to where I came, otherwise I cannot predict what will happen. And the person who gave me the message is most likely the girl mentioned in the book, Olavini. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, she was caught by the Countess and escaped, but never managed to escape the castle, so that she was trapped in it. Since she was not killed by the countess, she was not controlled by her. And she gave me these clues, probably because she wanted me to destroy the mirror world created by the countess after her death because of her powerful resentment. ”
Thinking about this, I had a rough idea, but I never knew what I was looking for, how to get rid of this damn mirror world.
Suddenly, I felt a cold air blowing through my neck, and instantly the hairs all over my body stood upside down, and I couldn't help but shiver. An old and hoarse woman's voice sounded beside me, "I, get, you~" (I found you~)
