Chapter 528: The Shining Manor and Mad Jack
You nod and agree to Katarina's request. γ
[Seeing that you agreed, Caterina was overjoyed and hurriedly introduced you to some information about this manor. γ
[This manor was established hundreds of years ago, was a tourist attraction, and was most famous for the red maple in autumn, so it was named Red Maple Manor. γ
[But before the manor was founded, it was a convent, or orphanage, where the good nuns received donations from the community and were responsible for adopting nearby orphans and raising them to adulthood.] γ
[This was supposed to be a place that symbolized kindness and beauty, but for some reason, there was always a 'Shining' phenomenon in this orphanage......]
"The Shining? Strangely interrupted Katarina. γ
["Yes, all the people who step into it will randomly see some flashback pictures, these pictures are very fragmented, no beginning and no end, some happen in the past, some happen in the future, but often extremely terrifying, people who stay here for a long time, will become shocked, many people even become mentally ill, so this place is also called 'The Shining Orphanage', 'Haunted Orphanage' and so on, because of these bad reputations, there are fewer and fewer kind-hearted people who are willing to donate here, and the orphanage is slowly closed down and abandoned. βγ
["Later, the next financier took over the land, overthrew the orphanage, and transformed it into Red Maple Manor, however, it was soon discovered that even if it was transformed into a beautiful manor, people who entered it could still see those flashback strange images from time to time, and worse, a horrific murder occurred here, and the deceased was the owner of the manor himself, who is said to have brutally dismembered his wife and two daughters in the manor, and then committed suicide himself...... After that, it was completely abandoned and became a deserted manor ......"]
Mu You's face was strange.
The story...... Why does it look familiar?
[Caterina recounted the past and present life of this manor, and looked at you: "Now the people in this city have been erased by the will of the world about this manor, and the manor is hidden in the misty forest just to prevent people from prying eyes. It was only in an extremely hidden corner of the heart web that I found the message left by an ancient 'Dead Whisperer', and I was able to learn this. βγ
["According to the ancestor of the Dead Whisperers, the first Dead Whisperer in history was an orphan who grew up here in a former orphanage. He has been suffering from the 'Shining' picture here since he was a child, and after a long time, he actually awakened the ability of the 'Shining', even after growing up and leaving the orphanage, he can still see the 'Shining' picture at any time, and this ability, and later with his bloodline, was passed on to his descendants, which is actually the source of the talent of the 'prophet' of the dead whisperers today. βγ
"That's ...... so"
Mu You raised his eyebrows, no wonder many people in the Dead Whisperer clan are mentally ill, flashback ability is not necessarily a good thing, imagine, chaotic flashback pictures always appear randomly in your life, and it is often a terrifying scene, the original peaceful and joyful daily life, the next second it becomes a bloody and terrifying painting style, after a long time, it is easy to make people insane, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion, and it is too normal to develop into a split personality.
[You continue to ask the other person, what is 'Allah' just now?] γ
"Allah is Allah, the greatest Mother of the world. According to the message of the ancestors, Allah was once the director of the Shining Orphanage and his adopter, and has raised countless orphans. βγ
"She's in the manor now? You ask. γ
[Yes, she called me a long time ago, and for a long time, I could dream of a crying woman in red, she wanted to speak to me, but I couldn't hear her voice, I knew that Allah must have something to do for me, but unfortunately I couldn't step here, so I could only ask you to do it for me."] Caterina said. γ
"The woman in red?"
Mu You was stunned, and instinctively thought of the mural he had seen at the regent before.
In the last of the frescoes in the row of the story of Cain, a woman in red also appeared, describing it as "like a loving Madonna," which seems to be somewhat similar to the person that Caterina is talking about now.
["After you enter the manor, you will definitely see a lot of shining images, remember, except for the tips Allah gives you, do not believe what you see, those are all obstacles set up to prevent you from seeing Allah!"] Caterina finally admonished. γ
[You nod your head in understanding, then leave the forest, step into the meadow, and walk cautiously towards the manor......]
After confirming the situation, Mu You didn't waste any more time and immediately began to explore.
[In the night, the outline of the manor gradually appears. The moonlight shone on the dilapidated stone walls, reflecting dappled shadows. You feel a chill in the back of your neck, as if the ghost of the manor is warning you. You gripped your gun and continued your journey to the dark labyrinth. γ
[When you come to the gate of the manor, you see some dim lights in the three-story building in front of you, which is the main body of the manor. γ
[But because of your proximity, the originally silent manor seems to have suddenly 'come to life', and all the lamps and lanterns have begun to flicker wildly, as if to warn you to leave!] γ
You ignore the warning and move on. γ
["Bang! "As soon as you reached the door, the two lights in front of the building suddenly burst, and the hot glass ballast smeared your face......]
With so many small movements before entering the door, it seems that there are indeed ghosts in this place.
Shaking his head, Mu You continued to explore.
["The door creaked open, especially harsh in the quiet of the night. γ
[When you step into the door, you will see a chaotic scene, the portraits on the walls are scattered all over the ground, the dilapidated furniture is covered with thick dust, the cobwebs are all over the corners of the walls, and the lights in the hall are full of shadows, flickering and dimming, which makes you instinctively feel uneasy......]
["Boom! "You were walking cautiously, and you had just taken two steps on the soft wooden floor when a flash of lightning struck in the sky. γ
[Under the reflection of lightning, you see the shadow of a man holding an axe on the windshield curtain at the end of the left side. γ
[The lightning flashed fleetingly, and it was already dark in the blink of an eye. Do you want to check it out? γ
[You relied on the courage of the artist, rushed to the left side, and lifted the curtain at the end......]
[Behind the curtain, however, there was just a narrow washroom, empty, and there was no one.] γ
You had no choice but to turn around and leave. γ
......You have just returned to the lobby, and on the wall of the hallway, a landline phone close to you suddenly rings a shrill ring, almost causing you to suffer a cardiopulmonary arrest. The bell ringing at midnight reveals the boundless weirdness, do you answer? γ
"Answer."
Mu You's expressionless choice. If he was at the scene at this time, he might have been really frightened, but unfortunately, with a play on words, there is no actual auditory and visual impact, and this sense of fright will only be greatly reduced.
[You pick up the phone and put the handset to your ear. γ
[There was silence inside, and after a few seconds, until you thought there was no one on the other side, a man's voice suddenly sounded laughing wildly. γ
γββ¦β¦ Hahaha, you're dead...... I'm going to chop you up with an axe...... Kill you...... Chop you into slices of meat and cook your bones into soup...... Kill, kill, kill, kill...... Die, die, die...... Hahaha......"]
[The tone of the laughter continues to increase, and soon it turns into a piercing scream, which shakes your eardrum and hurts, you hurriedly hang up the phone, and the world finally quiets down......]
Mu You frowned.
Caterina just let him in, but didn't tell him what to do, saying what 'Allah' would take the initiative to prompt him, Mu You just thought that this call was a prompt from Allah, but it turned out to be a bumpy guy on the other side......
So where's the hint exactly?
[You suddenly heard a rush of footsteps next to you, and you subconsciously turned your head to look, just in time to see a woman in white running from the corridor in the distance into the corner and disappearing. Do you want to track it? γ
"Track!"
Finally, a woman appeared, albeit in white...... Anyway, let's take a look at it first.
[You directly activated the 'god speed', everything around slowed down, you walked quickly to the corner over there, but when you turned your head, there was a dead end in the corner, there were only three rooms with closed doors, and there was no figure at all. γ
[You stepped forward and checked the doors of the three rooms in turn......]
[The three doors are locked, and you want to force the door open, but you soon find that with your strength, you can't even twist the door lock, as if these three doors are just decorations. γ
[No clues were found, you sighed in disappointment and turned your head to leave.] γ
[However, as soon as you turn around, you see a man appear on the way, only a few meters away from you, blocking your way. γ
[The man is holding a logging axe, covered in blood, bowing his head slightly, cracking the corners of his mouth, staring at you with a sly smile, his eyes make you creepy! γ
[You subconsciously took out the firearm with both hands, skillfully fired, and a series of bullets exploded on the man's body, but it was like hitting a steel plate, and they fell to the ground one after another, leaving no wounds on the other party. γ
βοΌβ
Mu You was stunned, this is the Shining?
If this person is just an illusory picture, shouldn't the bullet pass through the body? How can it be bounced back?
Thinking about it, Mu You subconsciously clicked on the entry of the axe-wielding man.
[Crazy Jack: Unknown Vampire, Algebra: 1 Generation ......]
"Generation?!"
Mu You was surprised, didn't he say that the vampires in this city were only three generations highest? How did a generation of vampires suddenly run out?
["Kill, kill, kill...... Chop you into slices of meat, hahaha......" After a short look at each other, the other party suddenly rushed towards you with a cruel smile, and the giant axe in his hand was raised, and he slashed down heavily, as fast as lightning......]
[You subconsciously retreated, narrowly dodging the axe, but you were still scratched by the tip of the axe, the defense of the 'iron block' was torn like tissue paper, an exaggerated wound appeared under your left rib, and your life plummeted by more than half! γ
Mu You's eyes jumped when he saw it, this injury, wipe it and cut half of his blood, if he really wants to be cut, isn't it certain death? This guy is a real vampire!
["Die die! Crazy Jack was already laughing again and slashing with an axe. You hurriedly activated the 'Speed of God'. γ
γFailed to launch!γ Since the enemy's algebra is too much lower than yours, your active blood-like law has a high probability of failure in front of the opponent! The effect of passive blood rhythm has been greatly reduced! γ
"Shhh
Mu You had no choice but to press the table.
Fortunately, it's just that the probability of activating is low, and it's not that it can't be activated, as long as there is a chance.
γFailed to launch at a fast ......γ
γFailed to launch at a fast ......γ
β¦β¦
γLaunch successful!γ You activate Godspeed, everything around you slows down, and Crazy Jack's every move becomes slow motion in your eyes. γ
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, and it took more than two hundred times to succeed in this skill, which shows how strong a first-generation vampire is to suppress him.
It's so difficult to even activate skills, let alone counterattack or something, this kind of thing is not something he can deal with now.
Mu You immediately manipulated the character to run away.
[You took advantage of the speed of time, bypassed the other party, got out of the gap in the wall, and quickly fled from the place. γ
[You rush back to the center of the hall, the speed effect ends, and the time flow automatically returns to normal.] γ
[You faintly hear Jack's angry roar behind you, slashing all the way and approaching you quickly......]
[You hurriedly hide in the shadow of the stairs on the side, hold your breath, and eliminate all movement......]
[Soon a wild laugh sounds, and through the gap in the wooden plank of the staircase, you see a blood-stained figure, dragging an axe and rushing through the outside, heading away from the other end, without noticing your existence......]
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief.
This madman cannot be 'Allah.
In other words, in addition to the 'Virgin of Allah' in this manor, there is a real murderer lurking, hunting everyone who intrudes from outside.
This is also understandable, if the purpose of that administrator is not to let outsiders come in here and communicate with that 'Allah, now that the administrator does not know where to go, there must be some defensive measures for this forbidden place.
And this killer is obviously the defensive force he arranged: the first-generation vampire is basically the existence of the final boss level in the entire scene!
And now, Mu You is equivalent to playing a game of cat and mouse here, he needs to find the so-called Allah under the siege and interception of this murderer, and ask what the other party needs.
[After confirming that the other party is far away, you walk out carefully from the bottom of the stairs, walking as lightly as possible.] γ
[The corridor is quiet, and there is no one. You just breathed a sigh of relief and looked up, but you just happened to see a woman in red, who was secretly looking at you from the viewing platform on the second floor of the spiral staircase. Do you want to track it? γ
Mu You was overjoyed to see it, and the woman in red finally appeared!
"Track!"
[You guess that this woman is probably the 'Allah you are looking for, and hurriedly steps up the spiral staircase to go upstairs.] γ
[You just ran to the middle of the stairs when the plank under your feet suddenly broke. The staircase is too old to stand the treading of people. At this moment, all the planks around you are broken, and you lose your support, and you fall straight down, from the first floor directly into the basement. γ
[At the same time, the sound of the wooden plank shattering instantly attracted the attention of the killer in the distance. γ
[You hear Crazy Jack's laughter again, and the sound of the axe mopping the floor is speeding towards you......]
