Chapter 43: Heading for the Jungle of Death!
The Eye of Favor has hinted that there are scene props hidden in the Vantaso Mansion, and if you are lucky, you may be able to find it with the help of the plot characters, saving time and effort, so why not?
What's more, Jian Hao's words are reasonable, no matter how you look at it, those female guests should be entrenched in a corner of the western jungle, without bringing some guys, just kill them with a silver needle and a few potions...... I'm afraid that we can accomplish the achievement of "forming a group to quickly become a little expert" together......
"Rest assured, gentlemenβ" the hero smiled and kowtowed, "and while you are deliberating, I have asked Pony to prepare all the supplies to enter the western jungle. β

[Note: As a milestone in the history of firearms, the appearance of this mass killing weapon once changed the shape of war, in the Valley of the Guillotine in 1977, if you have an arquebus in your hand...... It's honestly less reliable than a sharp melee axe. PS: Good luck and courage to move forward! γ
Are all the notes on these items in the story scene full of slots...... Brother Hao looked at the long-barreled arquebus in his hand, there was a black line on his head, and the attack speed of 3 points and 2 rounds was indeed ...... It's better to have a good melee cold weapon......
But it's better than nothing...... Brother Hao probably thought that if there was any emergency, this rough quality big killer weapon would probably be able to be used once, enough time to shoot a shot, and it would have to be on the premise of not jamming or exploding......

"Van Gaale and his son, widow Winship, your father, and then Muphilis...... There must be something to do with this, what is your father's entanglement with the Van Gaale family? β
The cold wind passed through the forest, blowing Jian Hao coldly, although when watching the original plot, he had already understood that this western jungle was completely a desolate and dead scene, but now that he was in the middle of it, he really experienced what it was like to be [a place shrouded in the shadow of death].
This jungle is cold and damp, there is no daylight, the road is covered by dead wood and rotten leaves, there is no bird song, there is no fragrance of flowers, the forest is so quiet that you can hear your own heartbeat and breathing, and it seems to be a huge labyrinth built of black and white, where the fog lingers all year round, and it seems that something really flashes in the corner of the eye inadvertently......
And not only the western jungle, but even the entire town of Guillotine Valley seemed to be sealed by some mysterious force, and it was gloomy and dim all day long, as if there was no sunlight at any time except for endless haze and fog......
Crane and his retinue rode at the head of the procession, and the upright and brave police officer was discussing the details of the case with his servant, driving the plot forward.
Jian Hao and the others didn't care too much about the dialogue between the NPCs in the plot, and they were more concerned about this jungle that existed like a ghost domain than the plot.
"Be vigilant, those female guests may rush out from any direction at any time."
Before following the actor into the western jungle, Jian Hao reminded Konstantin of this product.
"He worked for them, and we lived in the carriage house." Little Mas took the reins of the horse and answered his master's inquiries truthfully, "No problem. β
Crane stopped the gunpowder (the name of his ride) from his crotch, frowned, and pursed his lips, as if searching for the message in Pony's words; The latter also stopped his progress, as if remembering something, and added.
"But a week before the murder, Van Gaal's father and son had an argument, and then my father was called by my lord to do something."
"Oh?"
The thoughtful young police officer looked sideways when he heard the words and began to reason about the case.
"Father and son quarreled, and Lord Van Gaal asked a servant to do things......"
But at this moment, the little servant on horseback suddenly interjected, "Listen ......"
"Huh?" The officer raised an eyebrow, "I didn't hear anything." β
"Me too." The little servant chimed in, "No birds, no crickets, it's too quiet." β
The young police officer also reacted when he heard this, he swept around vigilantly, only to feel a chill on his back, and hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, pretending to be calm and said, "Let's go." β
Listening to these two people pulling calves, the three people behind them had involuntary goosebumps.
You've finally discovered that this place is terrifying!
"I said, should we tell this person directly?"
Following the actor slowly, Konstantin approached Jian Hao and said in a low voice.
"Better not." Brother Hao directly rejected his proposal without even thinking about it, and the latter immediately put on a puzzled look of "why".
Alas...... If it weren't for your talent, I would have knocked open your elm head to see what flavor of double-skinned milk it contained......
"The task given by the system is for us to find out the real reason for the formation of the Headless Horseman, which is completely different from the problem that the protagonist needs to solve in the plot."
"What's the matter??"
"Damn...... Are you okay? As soon as the system came, a set of adjectives such as 'really formed' was added, and second, if it was a one-size-fits-all matter, why bother with a brief introduction and a series of spoilers about the original plot to give us two times? Don't you think that's a redundant move? Isn't that a good illustration of the problem?
And when you read the original plot, didn't you realize that what the protagonist needs to solve is not the reason for the formation of the Headless Horseman, but 'who is manipulating and using this evil spirit to achieve some ulterior conspiracy'? This is obviously not the same thing as our mission. β
Speaking of this, Brother Hao blinked his eyes and continued in an extremely sharp tone, "So I think the real murderer ...... Oh, no, our real plot direction should not be in the same line as the original plot. β
"So what to do?" Konstantin listened for a long time and finally understood the intention of the system, but he still didn't quite understand what these things had to do with speeding up the progress of the plot.
"It's not that the plot in the challenge scene doesn't mean that it can't be destroyed and changed at will......," Brother Hao frowned when he remembered Gui Yanye's many watermelon knives that day, "But I think it's better not to destroy the plot in this SleepyHollow scene at will...... At least not now. β
He glanced at the silent killer uncle beside him, and continued, "Although our mission is not the same thing as the protagonist's mission, there are still inextricable links, so the best strategy now is to cling to the protagonist tightly, relying on his protagonist's aura to slowly advance the plot, and we find the right time in the process and seize the opportunity to solve the previous mission...... And maybe with luck, you can use the power of the protagonist to directly wipe out the headless horseman. β
"But the plot is ...... at the end The Headless Horseman is also back to hell, huh? This protagonist is completely incapable of killing it.,In the middle, I teamed up with another man and was almost poked to death by the Headless Horseman, right? β
"So you didn't die in the end?"
"That's ......"
"This is the aura of the protagonist."
Brother Hao smiled slyly, "As long as he adds his protagonist aura, then with the power of our three visitors from another world, the Headless Horseman will be wiped out...... It's not impossible, and at that point, it's time to change the direction of the plot, and ......"
Immediately, Brother Hao put on an unfathomable and confident appearance and whispered to Konstantin.
"I kind of know why the 'Headless Horseman really came into being.'"
