At noon, Li Mengxi, who came out of Tymon Roentgen, was driving a big red lizard along the muddy road in the direction of the "Black Bamboo Forest".

"Jingle Bell Jingle ......"

Suddenly, a bell rang in his head, and the phone interface popped up in front of him. Shown above is the number of Nain Hinata.

Regular contact between the two is usually at night, so this is undoubtedly unusual.

Could it be something unexpected?

Thinking like this, Li Mengxi pressed the green button.

"Nayin, what's wrong?" he asked softly after the phone was connected.

"Hmm. ”

Hinata's voice sounded very gloomy, which made Li Mengxi's chest feel uncomfortable, as if he had been punched hard.

"Langdon Alain committed suicide. ”

A voice full of sadness continued on the other end of the phone.

And when this news reached Li Mengxi's ears, it was like a thunderbolt, and his expression suddenly became terrifying.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't pushed him too hard, it wouldn't have been. "Hinata is like a child who has made a mistake, her voice is cowardly, and she seems to be begging for comfort.

However, at this time, Li Mengxi couldn't take care of this. His mind couldn't help but think back to talking to Tymon Röntgen.

......

After a short conversation in front of the house, Temon Röntgen welcomed Li Mengxi into the house and prepared tea.

The two sat opposite each other at the square table, and Li Mengxi first politely told Tymon Röntgen what he and Hinata had personally experienced in the past few days. Then it was finally Temon Röntgen's turn to answer Li Mengxi's question - that is, the information about the Seven Killing Stones that he had missed during the previous visit.

"Is there anything else I haven't had time to listen to?"

Hearing Li Mengxi's question, Tymon Röntgen pondered for a moment before he spoke, "Like I said, the Seven Killing Stones are a special prop. What I told you last time was kind of on the board. However, there are still some things, if you don't really hold the Seven Killing Stones and participate in that kind of bloody battle, you won't know about it. ”

Li Mengxi could see that Temon Röntgen had a faint sadness between his eyebrows when he spoke, so he asked a little unbearably, "Did you mean to tell me this?"

Hearing this, Tymon Röntgen knew that the other party was worried about his own feelings, and couldn't help but smile.

"Of course! I made up my mind the last time you visited. There's no need for a second time. ”

After relieving Li Mengxi's scruples, he officially talked about the Seven Killing Stones.

"First of all, the use of the Seven Killing Stones is similar to a sacrificial ritual. As for the matter under the surface of the Seven Killings Stone Slab, to put it simply, once the sacrificial ritual begins, then the key is only in the stone, and it doesn't matter who owns it. ”

The effects of the item can only be used by the owner, and borrowing a potion is actually an act of using the item on someone else. Players other than the owner will not be able to use the item even if they have it in their possession, and after a short period of time, the item will be dematerialized and returned to the owner's warehouse.

Based on these common senses, Li Mengxi didn't understand what Tymon Röntgen meant.

"How, exactly?" he asked.

"When the Seven Killing Stones are activated, all the sacrifices will be specified. So, how many people do you think there are?" asked Tymon Röntgen, after a moment's thought.

Since the Seven Killing Stones are claimed to be "seven people for one person", then it is natural to designate seven objects. This is the general conclusion. However, if that were the case, Tymon Röntgen would not have asked such a question.

"Isn't it seven people?" So, Li Mengxi said.

To this, Témon Röntgen nodded.

"That's right, not seven, but eight. The eighth man is the owner himself. ”

As he spoke, he drew a circle on the table with his right index finger.

"Once the ceremony begins, the relationship between these eight people is a circle, and everyone is the same. In other words, the ritual is not essentially the wielder killing a designated seven people. Instead, any one of the eight people involved in the ritual is designated to kill the remaining seven to complete the charge of the Seven Killing Stones. ”

"However, isn't it true that the Seven Killing Stone can only be charged with its incidental skills?"

Hearing Li Mengxi ask, Tymon Röntgen smiled.

"Normally, everybody thinks so. But I've never said anything like that, and it's not even written on the panel. Sacrifice doesn't have to kill with the skill of Seven Kill Stones, but if the killer doesn't have the Stone on his body, he won't be able to complete the charge. Therefore, the first thing the seven people other than the owner had to do was to snatch the Seven Killing Stones from the owner. In other words, in principle, once the sacrificial ritual begins, the owner becomes the first prey. However, the relative owner has an intelligence advantage over others and a special skill. So, it's kind of a balance. ”

With that closed, Tymon Röntgen shook his head with a wry smile. This obvious principle, combined with the criteria for the Seven Killing Stones to choose who to sacrifice to, is nothing short of fratricidal when the Seven Killing Stones are obtained by the team rather than the individual alone.

And Li Mengxi is concerned about the information that is closer to this "murder incident in the city".

"Mr. Röntgen, do you mean to kill the owner by snatching?" he asked.

Hearing this question, Tymon Röntgen pondered for a moment before speaking: "This method should be the safest, and the first owner was originally a sacrifice object for the snatcher, and there is no reason not to kill. However, it is true that only the stones were snatched without killing the original owner. ”

"Won't the stone, then, automatically return to its holder?"

"No, it won't. Tymon Röntgen said categorically, "The ownership of the Seven Killing Stones is actually divided into two types, one is collective ownership, that is, the right to hold it by each of the eight designated people. The other is individual ownership, which means that the first owner has priority over the others, just in case. For example, a snatcher snatched a stone from its original owner, but died in a battle with another person, or died at the hands of a monster or some other accident. At that time, the stone will return to the original holder, so that the ritual will not be inhumanly interrupted. ”

"What if someone other than these eight people kills the bearer and snatches the stone?"

"At that time, the ritual will fail, and the object designated by the Seven Killing Stones will be changed with the new holder as the center. However, if the original owner dies unexpectedly, the stone will have to fall on the spot and wait for someone to pass by and pick it up. ”

Thus saying this, Tymon Röntgen smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Maybe I should have killed myself. As a result, I was just a coward. ”

......

The content of the conversation with Tymon Röntgen quickly flashed through his mind, and then Li Mengxi anxiously asked at the phone interface, "Nayin!"

"Eh!" Hinata Nain, who was talking about the bitterness in her heart, was suddenly interrupted by Li Mengxi and couldn't help but be stunned. "What's wrong?"

"Seven Killing Stones! Are there any Seven Killing Stones in Langdon Alan's relics?"

"No, no. ”

After reconfirming this fact at the request of Li Mengxi, Hinata's heart swelled with a sense of foreboding, but she was still looking for reasons to convince herself that the incident was over.

"However, the Seven Killing Stones were also thrown into the swamp by Mr. Röntgen before, but they reappeared. Perhaps, it is such a strange item that will suddenly disappear and suddenly appear. ”

Li Mengxi didn't want to dwell on this point, so he hurriedly moved on to the next topic.

"And what about Adele Thomas! she's not with you. ”

"Now, no. Listening to Li Mengxi's voice, she was extremely anxious, and Hinata Nain hesitated when she spoke. As soon as the words came out, she added an explanation without feeling herself.

Adele said that it was rare to come to Hatsuba City to see her sister's tomb with her former companions. ”

In other words, the last two murdered targets went with her!

As soon as he thought of this, Li Mengxi couldn't help but get angry. He knew that he shouldn't be angry with Hinata, but his life was at stake, and he couldn't help but blame Hinata for being careless.

"Why don't you follow her!"

"Because, because ......" Hearing that she was being reprimanded loudly, Hinata was a little confused, "Adele said that she didn't want outsiders, and I think it's over......"

"Hurry up, Nayin! Hurry to the cemetery! Otherwise, it'll be too late!" Li Mengxi shouted hoarsely, and then hung up the phone. He shook the reins violently, driving the lizard to speed forward.

Li Mengxi finally knew what was going on!

Adele's many irrationalities made him have to suspect that this seemingly innocent girl was the real murderer. He wasn't wrong.

Langdon Alain came out with the Seven Killing Stones, clearing Adele's suspicion with facts, and making Naine Hinata believe that his friend was innocent. Nane Hinata wasn't wrong either.

If these two views are opposed, they are naturally contradictory, but if they are unified, there is no problem at all.

There were two murderers! Adele and Landon Alain!

Judging from the current situation, Adele is the main culprit!

After the two murdered the original three in a concerted manner, Adele received contact from Naon Hinata. It was probably at that time that they decided to use Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain.

Because of the remaining three slain, Celington had an earlier conflict with Adele, and she might not be able to trick him into meeting him in the same way that she deceived Sey-Bach. And Haydn and Bard are both members of famous guilds, and they are not something that ordinary players can see when they see them.

But if Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain, who investigated the "murder in the city", came forward, the situation would be different.

Then, Langdon Alain used his death to create the illusion that the incident had ended, completely causing everyone to let their guard down. Now is the perfect time for Adele to make a move, she has the Seven Killing Stones in her hands, and even the members of the "Brocade Thief" and "Twilight Forest" are no match for them.

You have to act quickly, if you don't, those two people will die too!

......

Just as Li Mengxi thought, the girl walking with her head bowed in the cemetery quietly showed a hideous smile. As her right hand slid quietly in front of her, the blue crystal containing seven purple ghost fires fell into her left hand.
