Chapter 6 Castle Night
byIt was always others who reasoned with him, and today it was his turn to reason.Wen Shi suddenly thought of an inappropriate description: wicked people have their own grind.
He said with some headaches: "The game emphasizes that it is committed to promoting truth, goodness and beauty."
It's nonsense, but he thinks it shouldn't be ignored, at least not easily violated.Passive defense and anti-killing are fine, but taking the initiative to attack may cause some bad karma.
"Let's try to find clues to break the game normally." Wen Shi bowed his head and rolled up his loose sleeves: "I like to keep the hole cards for the last one."
Xie Tangyan stared at him for a few seconds, choosing to respect Wen Shi's thoughts.
"Are there any books here?"
This world, this era, is relatively unfamiliar to her, and books are the fastest way to get information.
Wen Shi led her to the study, and said as he walked, "Try to be careful, the study may be dangerous."
To be exact, every place in the castle is full of murderous threats.
While talking, Wen Shi casually took out a book from the bookshelf and asked, "Can I read it?"
I don't know if the writing in the place where she came from is very different from what it is now.
Xie Tangyan glanced at the text: "It's the same with minor differences."
Wen Shi: "Okay, you can take a look here first, I'm going to meet someone."
After tidying up his messy hair while running, he said to himself: "A gentleman doesn't keep girls waiting."
dining room.
Luo Xiao leaned back on the high chair, resting her cheek on her palm, while drawing circles on the table with the other hand.
The wall clock on the wall will make a muffled ticking sound as time goes by, which makes people feel anxious.
"Why so long?"
Luo Xiao cast her eyes on the clock for the third time, guessing if something happened, the seal in the coffin was too strong, where both of them confessed?
If that's the case, it's better, the fewer players remaining in the game, the better, and the difficulty will be reduced accordingly.
"Are you waiting for me?"
When the voice sounded, Luo Xiao reacted for a moment, then suddenly raised her head in disbelief.
What she is best at is hiding her emotions, but at this moment, the astonishment in her expression is completely displayed on her face.
"Pei Wenwei?!" Luo Xiao stood up from the chair in shock.
"You seem surprised."
More than surprised.
Surprised to death, okay!
It was Wen Shi who came back, not Exiu, which meant that the other party was probably cold.Luo Xiao's hand in her pocket was originally holding the special communication tool for the game. She was going to wait a few minutes before contacting Exiu if she didn't come back. Now when she saw Wen Shi standing at the door smiling, she immediately changed her hand to a life-saving weapon.
For the first time in history, she felt fearful when facing a newcomer.
Luo Xiao doesn't think Wen Shi's victory over Exiu is due to luck.
"Fifty points." Luo Xiao quickly came back to his senses, and said in a deep voice: "I want to know what happened, and the grievances between us will be wiped out."
Wen Shi was stunned for a moment, but this woman was able to bend and stretch, and she directly showed a conciliatory attitude when she was not sure what cards she had.
He stretched out a finger: "One hundred."
Luo Xiao was about to open her mouth, when Wen Shi interrupted: "One hundred is a friendship price, don't bully me as a newcomer who doesn't understand the market."
The other party can definitely afford 100 points, and if it is more than she can accept, there is no need to reconcile.
Luo Xiao didn't make any further counter-offers, and asked Wen Shi to give him the player number.
Facing the suspicious look, Luo Xiao sneered: "The player account must be used for transactions."
A minute later, Wen Shi heard a beep.
"Player 397426 transfers 100 points to you."
The properties panel is updated at the same time.
"You have successfully conducted a transaction, and the game store has been activated."
It was a pleasant surprise.
Wen Shi didn't have the good morals of a gentleman, so he talked nonsense without changing his face: "Exiu released the contents of the coffin. For some reason, the blood bride insisted on chasing him."
Unexpectedly, Luo Xiao's complexion changed after hearing this: "Could it be..."
Wen Shi continued to ask: "Could it be what?"
Luo Xiao asked instead: "Cooperate? I'm serious this time. If we can work together to solve another player, the difficulty of the game will be further reduced."
Wen Shi glanced at him: "if they don't provoke me, then I won't provoke them."
After hearing this, Luo Xiao was slightly determined. If he agreed, then the previous 100 points would be considered a waste of time, but now at least it shows that this newcomer's character is not bad.
This is probably also the stupid and romantic innocence unique to newcomers.
"Don't think I'm vicious, I've been in the dungeon for a long time..."
"Miss Luo, I'm not interested in your psychological journey." Wen Shi put the frame of the picture he got from the book on the table, and said without expression while admiring the picture: "But I would like to advise you, cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness."
Neither of the two sides thought they could really convince the other, so neither of them wasted more words.Wen Shi's attention was all on the painting, and the monster trapped in it was completely reduced to a part of the painting. Without raising his head, he asked, "What do you know?"
Luo Xiao shook her head: "You may think I'm lying to you, but I really don't know much. In fact, we were misled by the game before, and we always thought that we had to put together the perfect bride until we put togethersuccess……"
Wen Shi raised his head.
Luo Xiao smiled wryly: "The formed bride immediately started a crazy massacre against us. Everything came without warning, and we had no time to find her weakness. In the end, I joined forces with several other surviving players to seal the monster in the blood pool.In the coffin."
"That's when we realized one thing. The patchwork method will only get blood brides that don't meet the requirements. Someone should have done this before us. People who are killed by blood brides will become new monsters, andEvery monster will have a particularly beautiful organ alienation, misleading the next batch of players to attack them."
"She chose Exiu first, probably because she remembered the hatred that was previously sealed by our joint efforts."
Unexpectedly, there was such a story, Wen Shi was puzzled: "It's all sealed, why do you want to undo it again? Just to kill me?"
Luo Xiao: "Exiu had nowhere to go and came up with this bad plan. If things go well, he and I will join forces to protect ourselves. The blood bride is not as strong as before after being sealed. Players die in the endgame, and the dungeon will be distributed more closely.The side missions of the main line, as long as the missions are completed, we will know the clues about the real bride."
"I see." Wen Shi was more interested in the previous one, and he extracted key information points: "So there is more than one Blood Bride in the castle?"
The woman who chased and killed him last night should be one of them.
However, the light was too dark last night, and he vaguely remembered that the woman was wearing a black gauze.
There is no need for Luo Xiao to answer, the game has already given the affirmation.
"Congratulations to the player for completing the side mission one
Mission reward: sachet*1 (it acts like a talisman, probably)"
"Blood Bride Guide: She is a synthetic Blood Bride, she often wanders at night, oh, there is more than one of her"
The figure paintings on the illustrated book are vivid, and they are presented in 3D in the mind, which is quite exciting.
Wen Shi is a result-oriented person, he cares more about task rewards, and when he saw that it was a sachet, he was quite dumbfounded.Is this life linked to things like safety buttons and amulets?
Luo Xiao didn't know about Wen Shi's mental activities, so he nodded and asked, "Most places in the castle have been explored, and now there are only churches, empty houses and attics left, do you want to take a look?"
Unexpectedly, Wen Shi refused.He looked at the long and tidy table and asked a question: "There are no other living people in this castle except us. Who is responsible for the daily food and hygiene?"
"There are also butlers, chefs and servants." Luo Xiao said: "The butler rarely shows up. The male servants are responsible for trimming the maze outside during the day, and the maids are generally responsible for cleaning. There is a separate place behind the castle for them to live in."
Wen Shi: "Is it because they are afraid that they will die in the old castle and no one will work?"
Luo Xiao: "..."
See through but not tell.
Wen Shi: "By the way, do you have a main mission?"
So far, he has only received one side mission, and he can't grasp the general direction of action.
Luo Xiaohu asked: "Don't you have one?"
Wen Shi didn't say a word, waiting for her to answer first.
Luo Xiao weighed it up and said: "The story line here is that after the party, we all went to the gallery to visit together, where we met the owner of the castle, and he invited us to the wedding. Because the other party is honorable, I happily agreed.After I came here, I realized that things were not as simple as I imagined.”
"As for the main task, it is naturally to escape from the castle." Luo Xiao gritted his teeth and said helplessly, "This damned place is so easy to get out of."
Regular footsteps came from the corridor, interrupting the conversation between the two.
Wen Shi and Luo Xiao raised their heads and retreated at the same time, putting on a defensive posture.
What did you say? After a while, the butler who appeared at the door was the butler who was just mentioned. He was not young and had white hair on his temples.Because the owner of the castle was wearing a tuxedo, the butler didn't wear it anymore. He chose a dark green suit. The fabric was old but there was no wrinkle.
"Doctor Aaron, I heard that your foot was injured, and the carriage is here to pick you up."
Wen Shi realized that he was calling himself, and asked curiously, "Pick me up?"
The butler smiled and said, "You should go back to the hospital."
Wen Shi was startled, and looked at Luo Xiao: "It's not easy."
Not only can you go out, but you can also be picked up by a carriage.
Luo Xiao: "..."
Wen Shi didn't leave in a hurry: "I left some things in the room, wait a minute, I'll go get them."
When he went upstairs, he browsed the game mall. The items on the homepage were all thousands of dollars in size, and his points were not enough to look at.
Wen Shi selected a price range to see what he could buy with the current points.After scanning around, I finally placed an order for a "little gourd" with 50 points.
"Little gourd: cover the breath of the living, a must-have product for escape travel
Reminder: It can make npcs not feel your breath, but it doesn't mean they can't see you, hee hee~"
This thing is useless to Wen Shi, but Xie Tangyan can use it.
He came to the study, and after searching around, Xie Tangyan suddenly appeared from behind him.
"Is there something wrong?"
Wen Shi was startled, regained his senses and stuffed the little gourd into it, and roughly explained its purpose.
"I want to get out of here for a while."
Wen Shi originally wanted to ask the other party to come with him, but remembering that he was almost wiped out by the monster at the street lamp when he first came, he finally decided to go and see it alone.
Xie Tangyan saw that she liked the things he gave, smiled and said 'be careful'.
She didn't insist on keeping up, which made Wen Shi feel that something was wrong.
Wen Shi asked tentatively: "You will be steady, right?"
Xie Tangyan nodded.
"must?"
Xie Tangyan: "Definitely."
The housekeeper was already urging downstairs, and Wen Shi was not going to delay any longer, so he hurried downstairs.
Behind him, Xie Tangyan touched the scabbard, looking at the majestic self-portrait of the owner of the castle directly opposite the study, wondering what he was thinking.After a long time, he said thoughtfully, "It's a good candidate for a sword test."
Downstairs, Wen Shi asked Luo Xiao before leaving: "Do you want me to take you out? It only takes 999 points."
The butler seemed unable to hear the latter sentence, and only said sternly to the first sentence: "You can't take away the master's guests."
"Oh." Wen Shi shrugged and said to Luo Xiao, "Then watch me leave."
