Before everyone could discuss an effective solution, the ferry arrived at its destination.

"We have arrived at the copy where no one survives. Please get off." The ferry driver said coldly in a mechanical voice.

The players can only disembark at this moment.

When they passed through the iron gate, the white fog around them dissipated, and they found that they were standing at the door of a large villa.

It was obvious that the big villa was the treasure house they were about to enter.

The huge villa is located among lush mountains and forests, and the wide lawn is dotted with colorful flowers and towering trees.

The exterior walls of the villa are white, spotlessly white, and appear particularly dazzling under the sunlight.

The architectural style of the villa is the romantic classicism of Europe and the United States in the 19th century. The arched windows and dome towers make the whole villa look magnificent and elegant.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect to see such a peaceful and tranquil scene in an epic purgatory-level dungeon." Chi Qiuping said in an incredible tone.

Except for Jiang Lai and the siblings Wen Ling and Wen Jiao, no one else in the team has ever entered the epic purgatory level dungeon.

Therefore, as soon as they came in, they looked around curiously.

"Everyone, be careful." Wen Ling said, "The characteristic of an epic purgatory-level dungeon is that the more peaceful and tranquil the scene is when you first enter the dungeon, the more dangerous it will be next."

It's just like the more beautiful something is, the more toxic it is.

As Wen Ling was speaking, he heard the door of the huge villa creak open to everyone, as if... giving them a silent invitation!

Everyone exchanged glances.

No matter what kind of danger is inside this villa, they must go in and find out.

They carefully divided into groups of two, with Wenling and Song Qi taking the lead and the others following behind, and entered the big villa, standing at the door to observe the situation.

I saw a tall wooden staircase spiraling upwards. The handrails of the stairs were carved with exquisite patterns, which looked very delicate.

The decoration of the entire villa is full of strong classical style. A vintage blue and white porcelain vase is placed on the fireplace, the backs of the sofa chairs are embroidered with exquisite flower patterns, and the oil paintings hanging on the wall are masterpieces of famous artists depicting European scenery.

Every piece of furnishings exudes the vicissitudes of time and a heavy sense of history.

Jiang Lai observed the surrounding environment and couldn't help but frowned.

Everything here looks luxurious and quiet, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong.

However, it made her feel very uncomfortable.

She frowned, and with Xiao Ai's hint, she quickly found the source of the strange and uncomfortable feeling of oppression.

She took a few steps forward without triggering any prompts, and walked to the center of the hall on the first floor. She looked up, but frowned even more deeply.

"What's wrong? Xiao Lai, did you find anything?" Seeing this, Wen Jiao hurried over and asked.

Jiang Lai pointed to the top of his head and said, "Come and take a look at the internal structure of this villa. If you look from the hall to the highest point of the ceiling, does it look like... a coffin?"

The spiral staircase of the villa is located on the left side of the gate.

The rooms are arranged layer upon layer, like a runway, in circles, throughout the villa.

From Jiang Lai's perspective, it did look like an extra-large coffin with a fairly standard shape.

Wen Jiao walked over to take a look and found that it was true, so she expressed her feelings.

"To be honest, I felt very uncomfortable after entering this villa. You all know that my innate skills are related to water. After entering here, I could feel that the humidity in this villa is very heavy, and it is the kind of gloomy humidity. It seems that the air here is so thick that it is sticky and stringy."

Others also felt uncomfortable to varying degrees.

It's just that their innate skills have nothing to do with this, and unlike Jiang Lai, they don't have the help of the companion skill Xiao Ai. They just feel uncomfortable, but they can't tell what's wrong.

"Ah, look over there. There is a garden behind the villa." Chi Qiuping pointed outside the floor-to-ceiling glass on one side of the hall and said to everyone.

Everyone turned their attention in that direction.

There is a pond in the garden and a small pavilion next to it.

Various flowers and plants are planted around the pavilion.

Perhaps because there is no one to manage it, the flowers and plants grow wildly. They look very lush, but there is a faint sense of desolation and weirdness.

Although the situation inside this villa looks a bit strange, no one has received any system prompts yet.

This means that at least they have not yet come into contact with areas that can trigger negative states.

Just as everyone was observing the environment in the villa, they suddenly heard a series of "Dang! Ding! Ding!" sounds.

It turned out to be the pendulum of an old grandfather clock placed in the hall, making a clear sound.

The bell rang six times.

After the bell rang, the originally bright light inside the villa suddenly became dim.

A tall and thin man wearing a long gown in the style of the Republic of China and a mask on his head appeared in front of everyone out of thin air, suspended in mid-air, looking down at the players standing in the hall on the first floor.

"Gentlemen and ladies, hello! Welcome to the Curio House! Our puzzle game is about to begin. Next, you will be given an hour to familiarize yourself with the environment. After one hour, the puzzle game will officially begin!"

After saying this, the figure suddenly disappeared mysteriously.

Jiang Lai always felt that the guy did it on purpose.

The purpose is to prevent players from obtaining more information through asking and learning more rules of this big villa.

Tsk, nothing is explained in detail, everything is left to the players to explore at their own risk, which is indeed what a game copy can do.

Jiang Lai could only remember the four words "puzzle game" that the man had just said, and then go with the others to check the surrounding environment.

"Time is running out. I suggest that we split into groups of two to conduct the investigation, with each group responsible for one area." Chu Feng said.

Jiang Lai nodded, "The hall here is clear at a glance, and the space upstairs should be what we need to explore."

With Xiao Ai's help, she only took a glance to know that in addition to the lobby on the first floor, there were six floors upstairs, with sixteen rooms on each floor.

Of course, the possibility of hidden rooms cannot be ruled out.

Please refer to the layout of the Lotus Hotel in Chiang Mai, Thailand for the internal layout of the villa. Please use your imagination to find out the shortcomings.
