Chapter 270 Bai Zhi's Conjecture and Speculation

"Not the core area?"

Looking at Bai Zhi standing on the table and looking outside, Yan Huo Feng Yue was obviously confused by Bai Zhi's words.

"But when you were outside, you clearly said that this is the core area, why suddenly..."

"The update of intelligence clues leads to a slight deviation in the results of my speculation. This is a very normal thing."

Looking around outside the castle, he seemed to be looking for something, and Bai Zhi answered without turning his head.

"Also, do you know what inertia of thinking is?"

"Thinking... inertia?"

"The castle inside and the castle outside have a very different commonality. Have you discovered what it is?"

"Uh... what is it?"

"Tentacles and dolls."

Letting out a breath, and jumping off the table, Bai Zhi started to speak.

"In the castle outside, there is a collection of elements related to dolls everywhere, but in the castle inside, I didn't find any elements related to dolls."

"Isn't this normal?"

After hearing Bai Zhi's answer, Yan Huo Feng Yue suddenly became even more strange.

"Originally, the inside and the outside are completely different, how could they have the same..."

"Did you see the oil painting in the corridor before? At that time [Colorful Black] was tied to the altar as an adult sacrifice. The place where the altar is located is not in the castle."

He randomly found a place in the room and sat down against the wall, Bai Zhi explained patiently.

"As for the [colorful black] doll we found in the castle hall outside, there is no trace of mutation on it. Also, do you remember what Anna said to that doll at that time? "

"Cursed...doll?"

After thinking about it for a while, Yan Huo Feng Yue seemed a little uncertain.

"But what does this name represent? And in the notebook that was left behind, there was also a puppet in the hall..."

"There is a difference between the two, [Colorful Black] was turned into a doll and then burned as a human sacrifice, but the unlucky guy who was quartered by five horses did not step into the world inside , should have been killed by the invisible guards inside the castle..."

When he said this, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"In the castle inside, the guards and maids are monsters with alienated bodies, but in the castle outside, Anna forbids the guards and maids to meet with the guests... Don't you think this is very interesting?"

"...I don't find it interesting at all."

Seeing that the more the other party talked, the more confused he became, and he couldn't keep up with the other party's jumping thoughts at all, the corners of Yan Huo Feng Yue's mouth could not help but twitch fiercely.

"Can you stop being dumb? I don't want to know the process of those inferences. Just tell me the result."

"...The puzzle is still a bit short. I can't figure out the final picture, but I have probably figured out some things."

Rolling his eyes, Bai Zhi had a look of disgust on his face.

"Let's put it this way, is the doll's curse on us really a curse? Why can't it be understood as protection?"

"Protecting... turning into a puppet is protection?"

Opening his eyes, Yan Huo Feng Yue stared at the other party as if he had given up.

"Forget it, I admit defeat, please explain your reasoning process to me in detail, otherwise I feel like I am listening to the bible like an idiot... You successfully let me find it because I was in math class because of The feeling of looking at the blackboard after taking a nap and looking up again."

"The location of the altar should be outside the perimeter of the castle, but it is definitely in this Rose Manor. Those caught by the guards will be taken there as human sacrifices, but because they are all burdened with Because of the curse of the dolls, as long as they cross a certain boundary around the castle, those people will turn into puppets, thus interrupting the human sacrifice... What is this not protection?"

When he said this, Bai Zhi took a special look at the other party.

"In this way, it can also explain why the doll of [Colorful Black] did not undergo such a horrible mutation, but because he was tied to the altar as a doll and burned on fire after all, It also has some cursed breath on itself, which is why Anna called it a cursed doll."

"...These clues are so scattered, how did you connect them together?"

After a moment of silence, Yan Huo Feng Yue asked the person in front of her with some confusion.

"Anna said casually, and you have remembered everything in your heart? According to what you said, the doll curse on us is still protecting us, protecting us from becoming monsters after death... Don't you think this joke is cold?"

"When did I say it was here to protect us?"

Cursing his lips, because his mouth was a little dry after talking in one breath for too long, Bai Zhi took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and unscrewed the cap to take a sip before continuing to speak.

"And besides, isn't there speculation about the possibility of resurrection of those well-preserved dolls after this dungeon is completely cleared?"

"So, even if you deduce these, what's the use?"

Yan Huo Feng Yue rubbed his forehead with his hands as if he had some headaches.

"You said that this is not the core area, so it's useless to kill Anna here, so where is the real core area?"

"do not know."

Bai Zhi spread out his hands in a very bachelor way.

"……do not know?"

"Nonsense, I'm not a god. Do you really think I'm the all-knowing and omnipotent Laplace demon? It's hard for a clever woman to make a living without rice. If there are not enough clues, how do you ask me to reason?"

Then he took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and threw it towards the other party, Bai Zhi rolled his eyes angrily.

"In this castle, there are two bosses, which represent Anna's parents. I guess they should defeat their plot or simply kill them before they can really find the way to the core area."

"It's easy to say, how do you tell us to kill?"

After taking the bottle of mineral water, Yan Huo Feng Yue pouted.

"Anna's father has the ability to seal our skills. Anna's mother doesn't know what kind of weird ability she has. In addition to the hundreds of monsters in the castle, how can the two of us do this?"

"So, now we must find a way to save the steel bone first."

Letting out a breath, Bai Zhi spoke heavily in his mouth.

"He is a pure melee fighter, and the sealing of his skills doesn't have a big impact on him. In fact, as long as we can hide the effects of our skills, we can still fight... We need help."

 

Chapter 270 No.3 Victim

In the empty room, a girl in black with neat black short hair was sitting in front of the window, lost in thought.

Perhaps it was due to absent-mindedness, so there were black circles one after another on the notebook she held in her hand.

——The information she got from Steel Bone during the day really made her still not come to her senses until now.

She actually doesn't know much about feelings. Since she was a child, due to her special background, she has almost never had any contact with the opposite sex.

A few months ago, because of the time-consuming test task, she chose to associate with the test target, which can be regarded as her first formal relationship with the opposite sex... Well, in her opinion, it was formal.

Although the location chosen for the date is a bit weird, it's cool! !

As for asking about feeling, in her opinion, she has no feeling, the only feeling is that the other party is very handsome and looks quite pleasing to the eye.

So even if the other party didn't pass the test in the end, she didn't hate the other party, and she didn't have any thoughts of breaking up. After all, in her opinion, the two got along quite happily before.

...Although someone doesn't think so in his heart.

After that, she left in a hurry, and then cut off all contact, guessing that the other party might have set up a grave for the other party because of an accidental death... Everything seemed to her to be nothing wrong.

If those new players are the first line of defense against those strange stories, then legacy organizations like the Night Watchman are the second line of defense against the erosion of those strange stories.

Because of her emotional indifference, for her, there is nothing in this world that is worth paying too much attention to. At most, it is just a little pity, just like the one who died Like a very pleasing boyfriend.

For her special existence, emotion is nothing more than a drag, and she never thinks that she will be involved in some inexplicable things. There are investigation records about her boyfriend in the notebook, It's just out of mission requirements.

——Her principle of conduct is task first.

It's just that she didn't expect that in such a simple investigation and evaluation task, her mentality would be inexplicably affected several times in succession.

"Except for some daily habits that have not changed, in other respects it is almost a complete change of a person..."

After recovering, looking at the stains on the notebook, she frowned slightly, closed the notebook and put it back in her backpack, the girl stood up from the table.

After checking the time, the girl came to the door and opened it.

............................................................

The lobby on the first floor of the castle.

"That's right, although two of them ran away, this one is also a good sacrifice."

"Don't worry, the other two mice can't run very far. Compared with the other two, I like this one more..."

"There is no need to waste too much time on these mice, we have more important things to do."

"Of course, compared to our plan, these are just the end of Pondway..."

Sporadic conversations came from in front of him, Steel Gu reluctantly opened his eyes, and only at this moment did he realize that his current situation seemed quite miserable.

There was no feeling in both hands and feet, and the whole body was firmly bound by ropes to a torture device similar to a cross.

And in front of him, a middle-aged noble couple was standing there discussing something without any scruples, and when they occasionally looked at him, their eyes were full of bone-chilling indifference.

After looking around with his eyeballs and finding that they did not see Black and White, Steel Bone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Don't look, your two companions have abandoned you, do you think they will come back to save you?"

Looking at the steel frame in front of him, the middle-aged man spoke sarcastically.

"Do the rats who hide in the sewer and survive on leftovers have the courage to resist the cats that hunt them?"

"........."

His face turned cold suddenly, and when Steel Gu wanted to say something, he was shocked to find that he couldn't even make such a simple movement, as if his mouth no longer belonged to him.

"Is there nothing to say? Yes, after all, mice are nothing more than mice."

Seeing Cyborg's boring reaction, the middle-aged man obviously lost interest in talking.
