Chapter 64: The Devil
Liu Wu listened to Lin Yi's explanation and nodded, this spirit body sounded similar to a ghost. This level does not threaten itself by half a point at all.
So Liu Wu didn't pay much attention to it, he said: "Okay, I don't have any problems, let's go now." ”
Lewis nodded, took out a map from the cabinet, spread it out on the table, and said, "Come and see, this is the map this time." ”
Liu Wu leaned over and saw that there was a large wasteland on the map, and the landmark of a big house was in the wasteland.
Lewis said: "This time we took on the task, it was here, in a big house on the outskirts of the city, and as long as we explored this place, we could get a reward." The reward was very high, a million dollars, which was among the best in all expeditions. Relatively speaking, it also has a high risk factor. ”
Liu Wu raised his eyebrows: "You really trust me." As soon as I joined, I participated in such a difficult task, one million for four people, and if I divided it, everyone could have 250,000. ”
Lewis nodded: "It is precisely because of your joining that I dare to take on such a difficult task." I believe 100% in Lin Nian's divination results. ”
Lin Nian looked at Liu Wu and added, "The divination results tell me that Ling is a very strong person, and he will definitely join us." ”
Liu Wu clasped his hands to his chest, looked at Lin Nian with interest, and replied, "I have to say, your divination is really accurate." In that case, can you figure out where I'm from? ”
Lin Nian shook his head: "I can only divinate things related to me, where do you come from, this kind of thing has nothing to do with me." ”
Lewis rolled up the map and said, "Alright, pack up your gear, and let's go." This house is not good-looking, it has never been explored before, and now that such a high reward is offered, I think the danger must be very high. ”
Lin Yiyi had his sword behind his back, leaning against the door frame. Liu Wu also had nothing to clean up, standing with him.
Lin Nian went to the next room to change into casual clothes that were convenient for movement, while Lewis put some necessities on his back and packed a bunch of messy things into it.
Everyone was ready to go, and they walked towards the mission goal in the suburbs.
The footsteps of several people were very fast, and it didn't take long for them to reach the door of the mission objective.
Looking at the house in front of him, Liu Wu couldn't help but sigh that it was indeed a weird and terrifying atmosphere.
This large house is an old mansion in the Western architectural style, most of the materials are made of wooden planks, and it looks like no one has lived in it for a long time, and there are some signs of rust and corrosion. The stairwell was covered with dust.
Now it's trauma, and there's a light behind every window in the big room. And the door is locked. From a distance, the house looks like a man-eating monster.
Lewis took a long breath and said, "Here it is, here it is." ”
Lin Nian took out a crystal ball from his bag and said, "Don't rush in, I'll count it first." ”
After saying that, she closed her eyes tightly, and the crystal ball in her hand began to light up gradually.
The light of the crystal ball became more and more brilliant, and finally gradually dimmed.
Lewis hurriedly asked, "Lin Nian, how is it?" ”
Lin Nian shook his head, his eyes were a little confused, and said, "I can't tell anything." ”
Lewis exclaimed in surprise, "What? How is that possible? This has never been the case before. Could it be that the crystal ball is broken? ”
Lin Nian replied: "I also brought a spare, I'll try it." ”
With that, she put the crystal ball back in her bag and took out another crystal ball of the same size, but different color. It used to be purple, now it's blue.
The blue crystal ball still slowly emitted light, illuminating all the surrounding areas of one or twenty meters, and then gradually cooled down.
Lin Nian frowned and opened his eyes, and said, "I still can't see anything this time." It's not a crystal ball problem. ”
Liu Wu was also a little surprised at this time. This Lin Nian can count that he will come, but he can't calculate what will happen after entering this room.
It shows that this trip is not so simple.
Liu Wu raised some vigilance in his heart, and he was not as relaxed as he was just now. After all, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. It wouldn't be fun if I capsized in the gutter.
Lewis pondered for a moment and said, "Although the current situation is not very good for us, we still have to continue to act. ”
Liu Wu immediately picked up his words and said, "Lewis is right. Even if you can't do anything, you still have to act. ”
Lin Yi still looked indifferent and cold, and did not speak. Lin Nian's face was a little worried.
Lin Nian said: "In the previous actions, because of the elements of divination, we were often able to seize the opportunity, but this time it is gone, so we still have to be careful." ”
Now that it was completely dark, from Liu Wu's point of view, the house was more detailed and a man-eating monster. If it were a timid ordinary person, I would not dare to go in at all.
Several people climbed the wooden staircase, making a creaking sound. Lewis pulled a wire out of his trouser pocket.
Liu Wuyi raised his eyebrows: "You still can unlock the lock?" ”
Lewis smiled, "I'll do a little bit of everything." Otherwise, how can you be a captain? The door is locked, and you can't get in without picking the lock. ”
With that, he skillfully poked the wire into the lock and turned it.
Click!
After two turns, the old-fashioned wooden door came.
Liu Wu teased: "Seeing that you are so skilled, you haven't done much before, right?" ”
Lewis waved his hand: "Hey, don't mention the previous things again." ”
Bang!
As soon as the four of them entered the house, the door behind them closed automatically, making a dull sound, startling Lin Nian.
Lin Nian said: "There was no wind just now, but the door closed by itself, and this time the task is really not simple." ”
After saying that, he tried to pull the door, but found that it couldn't be pulled at all.
Liu Wu smiled: "It's a little interesting." It seems that we won't be able to get out of this broken house without exploring this house today. ”
The place where the four of them are now is in the living room. Liu Wu observed.
The living room is spacious, with lots of common fixtures, and three rooms on the left and right. There is also a wooden spiral staircase in the middle of the living room that leads to the second floor. From the outside, the room has three floors.
Seeing so many aspects, Liu Wu subconsciously said: "Let's go our separate ways, one person in a group, and we will soon be finished." ”
Lewis patted him and said, "You dare to split up for such a difficult task, don't you want to die?" The four of them explored together at a slower pace, but fortunately it was safe. ”
Liu Wu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the combat power of the three people around him was very weak compared to himself, almost like ants.
So he just shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "Okay, listen to you, I don't care." ”
Lewis pointed to the living room and said, "Let's rummage through the living room first and see if there's anything." ”
The four of them explored separately in the living room, carefully looking for a suspicious clue. It didn't take long for Liu Wu to dig out an envelope from a drawer.
Liu Wu said: "There is an envelope here, you can come and take a look." ”
"Here we are." Several others shouted.
Several people got together, and Liu Wu also opened the envelope. There was only a white piece of paper with a small triangle drawn on it, and the middle of the triangle was all covered with yellow paint.
Liu Wu asked, "What does this mean?" It looks inexplicable. ”
Lewis frowned and pondered for a moment, and said, "We can't be sure what this is at the moment, but let's put it away first, what if it will be useful later?" ”
Liu Wu felt that it made sense, and folded the white paper into small pieces and put it away.
Bang!
Suddenly, there was a loud tremor in the room, and then it began to shake incessantly. The light bulb in the room flickered a few times before it went completely dark.
While!
Liu Wu could clearly hear the sound of Lin Yi drawing his sword and Lewis's shout.
Lewis yelled, "Don't panic, don't get separated, we'll stay where we are!" When the shaking has dissipated, look for the location of the others. ”
The shaking soon stopped, and the bulb came back on. Liu Wu looked around and found that there was no one. I can't feel the breath of other people.
Liu Wu hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Won't it?" You don't really want to give me this hand, do you? Tsk, there were other people here, and I could still save some face for you, but now that you have taken the others away, wouldn't it give me room to play? ”
The living room was empty, and no one responded to him.
Although he didn't know who was responsible for the power outage and the shaking of the house, Liu Wu didn't care much about it, after all, this little trick seemed to him to be like a joke.
Based on Lin Nian's divination ability before, Liu Wu deduced that whether it was a spirit or something else in this room, it would definitely be able to find out who was behind the scenes.
Thinking of this, Liu Wu casually walked to the room next to him, no matter what it was, in the face of absolute power, it was not worth mentioning.
Unless the final boss of this world comes out directly to find himself for a decisive battle, he can still do whatever he wants.
Bang!
Liu Wu put his hands in his pockets, kicked open the door with an arrogant kick and walked in.
Bang!
As soon as you enter, the door closes automatically.
The room was dimly lit, with no electric light, only candles, and a six-pointed star painted on the floor with blood, which was so fresh that it had not dried up, and could even smell fishy.
The room is not large, with a small bed against the wall, which looks like it is for children. Except for the bed on the floor and the six-pointed star and the wall, there was only an empty table.
Liu Wu walked directly over and sat down on the edge of the bed, and said, "Okay, don't pretend to be a ghost, it's a mule or a horse, come out first, let me see what you look like." ”
Crash!
As soon as he finished speaking, the six-pointed star on the ground bloomed with a dazzling red light, and a burst of blood-red smoke kept coming out of the floor. In a matter of moments, the entire room was enveloped in smoke.
After that, the smoke gathered rapidly, and a hideous-looking demon poked its head out of the smoke, and soon, most of his body also poked out of the smoke.
The demon's skin was red, with three yellow eyes and black horns on its head, and large chunks of muscle bulges all over its body.
In appearance, it is a very typical Western demon.
The demon's mist and flames were all around it, and the sound it made was deafening, echoing through the room, and the words carried a heart-chilling power.
The demon's yellow eyes stared at Liu Wu and asked, "Mortal, did you summon me?" ”
Liu Wu shook his head, sat cross-legged on the bed casually, without any expression on his face, and replied, "It's not me who summoned you, who do you go to if you summon you?" ”
The demon was stunned for a moment, in the past, his appearance could scare mortals to the core, but this time the mortal in front of him was not frightened by himself.
However, he is also an old demon who has experienced a hundred battles, and he quickly reacted, sniffed his nose twice vigorously at Liu Wu, and said, "I have already smelled the smell of you, mortal, you can't escape the palm of my hand!" I will grant you a wonderful death. Until then, though, I can grant you three wishes. ”
Liu Wu raised his eyebrows and said, "My wish is to come again." ”
The demon was stunned for a moment, then burst into rage, and the temperature in the room suddenly rose. Magma bubbled up from the cracks in the floor and quickly filled the room.
The demon roared angrily: "Mortal! You're kidding me! ”
Liu Wu nodded in response: "Yes, do you see it?" ”
The demon calmed down a little, he felt that the mortal in front of him seemed to be different from the others, but he couldn't say what was different.
The demon said, "I am merciful and have decided to forgive you for the mistake you just made. Now, I can give you one more chance, and after that, you can go and meet the death I have prepared for you. ”
Liu Wu lay on the bed, sighed slightly, and said, "I have to say, you are still quite second-year." You can't make my wish come true. ”
The demon seemed to be annoyed by the indifferent tone, and said, "I can't fulfill the wishes of mortals? Amusing! It's ridiculous! Do you want money, or do you want status? Or fame and fortune? Even if you make a wish to all the beauties in the world, I will satisfy you without reservation. ”
With that, he burst out laughing, completely immersed in his own world.
Liu Wu said: "I want this world. No, to be precise, I want the people who control this world, or the gods to appear to me. Can you do it? ”
As soon as Liu Wu said this, the demon's laughter came to an abrupt end.
Looking at the other party's embarrassed appearance, Liu Wu laughed and said, "How is it?" Can't do it, right? That's a serious wish. ”
The demon frowned, and even the surrounding fog and flames weakened a lot.
He said, "Mortal, I can't understand your wish. ”
Liu Wu snapped his fingers: "It's right if you can't understand it." Can you tell I'm not a local? Your trick works for the locals, but it doesn't work for me. ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, the demon carefully looked at Liu Wulai.
Liu Wu also cooperated, releasing a trace of breath slightly.
Bang!
Just this breath wiped out all the magma on the floor, and the fog on the demon's body completely dispersed.
The demon's eyes widened, his voice became a little hoarse, and he pointed at Liu Wu in surprise and said, "You, you, you, are not from this world at all!" The power in you is not of this world! ”
Liu Wu restrained his breath, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "It seems that you are not too stupid." ”
