Welcome to the lock demon tower

When Qiao Que and the others entered this world, it was a cloudy day.

The dark clouds were like filthy snow, covering the sky and the sun, and faint thunderclaps could be heard from time to time in the sky.

Obviously it was morning.

The birth point this time was outside a somewhat dilapidated European-style courtyard. The black iron fence was mostly blocked by a flower wall, and some withered roses were scattered on it.

Looking in from the closed gate, it is a huge European-style villa, not too high, with gray stone exterior walls, painted round window glass, and a very old bell tower on the spire.

Qiao Que lowered his head and rubbed his eyes: "This villa is so big...and it's bounded by the door, and there's a faint air everywhere inside. It makes my eyes feel so uncomfortable. Is it considered a work-related injury if you're blind, Brother Chi?"

Jiang Luchi didn't answer, he tried to step back a few steps.

The villa is facing a tree-lined path, surrounded by extremely tall trees, rather than saying that the scenery is beautiful, it is better to say that it is in some deep mountains and old forests.Before Jiang Luchi took a few steps back, he paused for a moment, and the next second, he appeared beside Qiao Que again.

It seems that the scope of this world is not large, it is within this courtyard.

Zhao Kexin was squatting by the door and peeling away the branches and leaves growing out of the railing, saying: "What kind of villa is this? It’s a horror movie... By the way, Jiang Chu, are foreign ghosts under the control of our Demon Locking Tower?”

Qiao Que was startled: ...Could it be that I'm really wearing the right cross? !

"Ah, there are words." Zhao Ke cleared a branch in his heart, and only then did the covered gate reveal the whole picture.

Several mottled Chinese characters appeared:

"Angel House Children's Welfare Institute".

Qiao Que: ...

Great, now I have to add the orphanage tag, each of which accurately hits my debuff.

The three of them were the first to come. After waiting at the door for a while, teammates appeared around one after another.

Among the teammates this time, there was obviously no newcomer with a dazed face, and another group of three people also came in a team like them, and appeared at the door at the same time, talking in a low voice, discussing with each other.

There were a total of twelve teammates, all of whom were carrying big bags. They seemed to have done enough homework. One girl even carried a large 30-inch pink suitcase with half blingbling sequins on it.

Zhao Kexin looked at his 20-inch suitcase: "Fuck...why do I feel like I've lost again."

Qiao Que: ...I don't really understand your strange desire to win.

A few minutes after the 12 people arrived, a person dressed as a maid came from the castle, opened the door for them, and said with a smile: "Please come with me, all guests."

Huh, guest?

Qiao Que asked, "Will we still be assigned identities in the more advanced world?"

After all, in the last world, Zhang Qiyang, a nuwa spirit, did nothing but fine points, and all her strength was used to pinch the NPC.Qiao Que thought that the volunteers were more inclined to be a kind of external intervention force.

Jiang Luchi looked around the courtyard while walking: "Not necessarily. Every world in Suoyao Tower is different, and there is no fixed pattern. Anything can happen."

Qiao Que moved closer and saw that Jiang Luchi didn't show any disgust, so he secretly asked, "Brother Chi, is there any trace of Feng Tianyin?"

Jiang Luchi shook his head.

After a few seconds, Qiao Que paused slightly and looked at Zhao Kexin in surprise.

Zhao Kexin also nodded: "I have also received the task."

The task suddenly appeared in his mind like a flash of thought. Qiao Que was sadly thinking about his human camel at the moment: "My task is... um? Complete the diary in the attic? What do you mean..."

Zhao Kexin rolled her eyes: "It still makes me cause damage to the boss. What's wrong with this broken system? Is it stuck? Do I look like someone who can fight like that?!"

Qiao Que: ...

What else?

Zhao Kexin added: "That's not right...there is still a difference, it is to cause damage to the full body Boss. Hmph, this is more or less the same."

Qiao Que:? ? ?Where is the difference?

Wait... Why does Boss still have a full body?

Is he a Digimon? !

Jiang Luchi looked at Qiao Que thoughtfully: "Your luck is still very good. This task may seem confusing, but it pointed us to a clear direction - the diary in the attic. In principle, the task will try to Close to the personal abilities of the volunteers, if the team is formed properly, a lot of clues can be obtained at the beginning.”

Luck is also part of strength!Rounding it up is being praised by Brother Chi!

Qiao Que was overjoyed: "Brother Chi, what is your task?"

Jiang Luchi approached the building, casually touched the material of the outer wall, and replied lightly: "Destroy the boss."

Qiao Que: ...

Zhao Kexin: ...

Qiao Que: Camel, I promise you that you will never be impulsive, but it seems that every time in the future, I must pass the level perfectly because my sunfish hugged an aircraft carrier!huge!

The maid opened the heavy carved door, and waited politely aside, waiting for everyone to enter the interior before entering the door.

The entrance is an empty hall, and there are some children's toys everywhere. On the stairs facing the hall, there are some paintings hanging. Because the distance is too far, I can't see clearly.

This villa has a large interior space, no wonder Zhao Kexin wants to call it a castle.However, it should be comfortable and spacious, but I don't know if it is because of the weather, the light is not good, and it looks depressing and gloomy.

In the end they were arranged in the restaurant on the right side of the first floor.

It is said to be a restaurant, but the environment here is more similar to a small canteen, with two long wooden tables and simple long wooden chairs, and a small kitchen connected to the other side of the restaurant.

There are traces of watercolor strokes everywhere on the walls, which seem to have been carefully wiped off, leaving some red spots, and light-colored smears when wiped, some of which look like bloodstains wiped away, which makes people uncomfortable.

Among the teammates this time, there is no social genius with a different purpose like He Ping. Everyone seems to be wary and reserved. They just introduced themselves casually and confirmed that there are no time-limited missions in the team. Gather together and whisper.

Qiao Que wondered in a low voice: "Shouldn't the volunteers be united? Why are they scattered like this?"

Jiang Luchi's gaze silently swept across everyone, expressionless: "It's hard for people to trust strangers. As the level of the world increases, the experience of matching teammates will become more and more rich. Among these people, there are many There may be taskers who have left the voluntary task stage and are in the internship stage. They are in a competitive relationship with each other."

Qiao Que suddenly realized: "So that's it. Sure enough, all the exams are very cruel! Thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge! You can't relax for a minute!"

Zhao Kexin gritted her teeth: "I hate this world where I can lose at any time!"

Jiang Luchi: ...

Fine.

While talking, "Du, Du, Du..."

A woman knocked politely on the open door, and walked in satisfied after receiving all eyes and salutations.

She was wearing a black lace dress that reached to her ankles, and a black top hat with a mesh decoration hanging from the edge, covering half of her eyes.His long black hair fell to his waist, his skin was very pale, his face was thin, and his cheekbones were prominent.Lips with bloody lipstick.

Everyone knew that this must be the key person, and they all looked at her silently.Some secretly held the prepared weapons in their hands.

As if she couldn't see their slightly hostile reaction, she giggled, her voice was a little stiff, but it was still pleasant to hear: "Welcome everyone, we have been waiting for a long time. I hope that during the next few days of inspection, Getting a satisfactory answer will also help us in our future cooperation."

inspection?cooperate?Qiao Que and Zhao Kexin looked at each other.

It really gave them an identity...

The woman seemed to have thought of something, looked up and looked around, and then showed a very dissatisfied expression, and said sharply to the maid who had been standing near the crowd: "What's going on? Why didn't I prepare the things I asked you to prepare?" good?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." In the blink of an eye, another maid rushed in, her dress and appearance were exactly the same as the one standing here earlier, obviously twins.

After the two whispered for a while, they apologized to everyone: "We were negligent and didn't hang this up. I hope you don't mind."

Everyone looked puzzled, what?

The two maids unfolded the contents of the bag, stood on the chairs and skillfully hung them on the wall of the restaurant.

A very familiar large banner with yellow characters on red background was displayed in front of everyone.

—— "Warmly welcome the leaders of Guangming Village Shengli Real Estate Group to visit and guide."

Everyone: ...

Qiao Que was dumbfounded: ...

I now know that our identity is a real estate company inspection team...

But... "Brother Chi, this is... uh... Is it a part of the Celestial Dynasty that must be added in the Demon Locking Tower according to some hard-to-explain rules?"

Isn't this name too earthy!

Jiang Luchi pressed his temple, and looked away indifferently: "I don't know. I don't care."

Zhao Kexin looked disappointed: "Ah, there are no foreign ghosts."

……

"teacher……"

There was a soft and soft child's voice coming from the door.

A few radish-like children crowded in the shadows outside the door, looking timidly at the group of strangers inside.Judging from the uniform clothes, he should be an orphan in the orphanage.

The woman smiled softly at the children: "Go to the hall to play with toys first. The teacher wants to entertain guests. Good children must be obedient, do you understand?"

"But teacher..."

The woman suddenly jumped into a rage without warning, and yelled angrily: "The teacher told you to play with toys! Why are you disobedient?! Why are you disobedient?!"

The children were scolded to the point of tears, and they responded obediently, holding back their tears: "Good teacher."

Then, one by one, they quickly and carefully crossed the door of the restaurant and ran down the hall.

Everyone was frightened by the woman's sudden anger, and some people overturned the glass in their hands, and the water glass spun around on the table several times.

"Why is this...it's too fierce." A girl in the team complained in a low voice: "I'm still a child."

The man next to him immediately tugged at her: "Don't talk about it. This is in the Demon Locking Tower. It's hard to say if it's a child."

This is indeed the reason, everyone took a deep breath and looked at the woman.

As if nothing had happened, the woman showed a friendly smile again: "Take a look, a small and simple welcome ceremony, are you all satisfied?"

No one answered.

Qiao Que: ...Could it be that you're talking about a certain treasure's ten-yuan wallet postage banner?

The woman didn't mind their reaction, and continued with a smile: "Then, everyone, you can investigate freely. We have beautiful scenery and pleasant climate here, and you will be satisfied. Oh yes, there is just one thing..."

She pursed her lips and smiled mischievously: "Our children are very naughty, if they make you angry... please don't argue with them, after all, they are still children."
