Randomly pick a stand-in every day

The appearance of this reminder has already confirmed that the room with the wrong painting style in front of me is still a part of the dungeon, and it is even very important!

"..."

The exploration of the castle has reached the final stage, and the answer to the mystery "seems" is close at hand, but Raleigh can't imagine it at all.The inexplicable development made him not want to speak, so he checked the room wordlessly.

Specially posted ghost charms, can it be considered that you don't want the ghosts in the castle to come in?So what hideous thing is hidden here, it is worth special precautions, it is necessary to look for it:

On the bookshelf next to the door, the books are arranged neatly by category, ranging from traditional literature to light novels and comics.Opening the content, the text is all mosaiced and cannot be read. The system prompts [although it can be designed to be readable, but it has nothing to do with the copy, so as to avoid unnecessary waste of time and omission], which is very reasonable.

Then I checked the disc, and there was the same prompt. Let’s rule out the possibility that "the system is deceiving people" is too advanced and probably won't appear in the novice stage. I can only judge that the problem is not with these things.

"Oh? There's no electricity, the plugs are all lying around."

At the same time, Yu Jie also confirmed that the computer and game consoles were unavailable. He turned up and looked at the light bulb on the ceiling, and felt that he had discovered something:

"Look, all the lamps in this room before were candles or oil lamps, and there were no modern items; now there are electrical appliances in this place, which proves that there is actually electricity in the room, that is to say—"

The little yellow ball jumped up from the ground and shouted excitedly: "This place is actually powered! It's just deliberately pretending to be an old castle!"

"Well. Well said, but what does it mean?"

"It shows that... uh, don't know."

"Then it's useful for the whole point, don't analyze blindly there."

It's so easy to think about the reasoning after thinking about the reasoning until now.After Raleigh complained about his useless teammates, his eyes stayed on the upholstered seat.

There was no influence of talisman paper in the room. Borrowing the eyesight of Platinum Star, he found a little detail from the light green cushion, and picked it up slightly.

"Um……"

One long hair, red, slightly curly, 104 cm in length.

Then Raleigh looked around, and there were more or less such red hairs scattered everywhere in the room, and there were no other people's hair strands, so this person should have been the only one who had been active.

I always feel like I can prove something, but I don’t know what it means...

"Besides, there's a cup on the table..."

"Let me take a look~"

Yu Jie jumped over to the side of the glass goblet and sniffed it lightly.

【.ra Listening 70】

[Bubble Sotos performs a listening test:]

[D100=25/70 difficulty success]

COC cold knowledge, if you need to distinguish the smell, it is a judgment of "listening", because this skill can include the meaning of pan-observation ability and alertness.

"It's the smell of sheep's blood... what is this?"

Yu Jie was full of doubts, and a small black question mark floated above his head.

"Long hair and a blood cup... If the news that 'the owner of the castle is a vampire' is true, it can be matched."

It's still too fragmented, and I always feel that there will be some more intuitive information. If there is no information in these media, there is only——

Thinking of this floor almost at the same time, one person and one ball tacitly turned their eyes, staring at the thing with the largest area in this room, the cabinet containing the figures.

In the display cabinets about the size of two wardrobes, there are various figures on display.Having said that, due to the large spacing and the drawer at the bottom, there are actually only about 20 of them.

I didn’t see any familiar images, and many model workers on the set of various second-generation fan works did not appear on the scene, but these roles cover many identities:

There are common images like female students in uniform, male tourists with bags on their backs, or police officers with guns on guard; there are also more fantastic characters like monster girls with devil or animal ears, and black-robed old men with hunched waists. .On the farthest side is a female Taoist priest in a long gown, holding a small piece of talisman paper between her fingers.

All in all, there is no commonality at all, and there is no connection; each figure is protected in a transparent glass cover, and there are cylindrical jars one after another, making it look like scientific research.

"The workmanship is exquisite...what can these tell us?"

Yu Jie jumped onto the table and overcame the height difference to look at the figures in the cabinet, trying to find useful information from them.

Raleigh, on the other hand, looked at the figure of the policeman on the cabinet and fell silent.

"..."

He suddenly had a guess.

There is no evidence, and there is no guarantee that it is correct, but there is no guarantee that it is wrong.

Reasoning requires rigorous thinking and sufficient evidence, but conjecture is not required. He just thought of this possibility and bet that his guess was right—he thinks:

"This should be the missing person we are looking for in the branch line."

"what?"

Tang's sudden statement made Yu Jie stunned for a while, but he soon came up with an association and followed this train of thought:

"Are you referring to... the figures of these two policemen?"

In the initial mission description, it was mentioned that "even the police officers dispatched are missing", so although the number and identity of the missing persons were not told to the player, the fact that "the missing persons include the police" is known information.

"You said before, since the branch line said to save survivors, there must be survivors in this place; but we have pushed the exploration speed to almost 90 during the entire dungeon process, and we haven't seen any traces of survivors .”

Raleigh briefly explained his thoughts, and walked forward to the huge cabinet:

"Except for those ghosts, these are the only things that look like people in this place. And if you look at this Taoist priest and think about the talisman at the door, isn't there a lot of related elements?"

Raleigh is a guy who often makes choices based on intuition.When you are undecided, it is much more refreshing to choose one based on your feeling than to repeatedly check and balance the pros and cons.

After all, no matter how many calculations you make, you may not get what you want, and you may not be able to get good results if you choose randomly, so why not?

These figurines are inexplicably hidden, and there are some subtle overlapping points, so it must be impossible; although there is also the possibility that they are just deliberately misleading, but he still bet today that these are missing persons!

"It makes sense, so how do we fix it? Bring all these figures?"

The two black dots rolled their eyes, and Yu Jie felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he skipped the discussion and entered the action planning stage, jumping to the front of the cabinet.

"Well, come here and help, first dismantle the cabinet, and then take it all away!"

Even the imitator old man can be put in the game backpack, so there is no reason why figures can't do it, right?

"How can I help you? Without the human body structure, I can't even reach this cabinet. You can use platinum to dismantle it~"

"He is precise A. I don't know how hard he should use it. Let me test it first..."

The two players fiddled with the display case together, trying to remove the shell along the edge, so as to take out the glass jars containing the figurines.

And when the two of them were all focusing on the cabinet, neither of them noticed that something was sticking to the gap in the building and flowing in along the length of the room...

"It also seems to be an electric switch. You can't find the button if you look underneath."

"Probably this one? Oh, it seems that it can be opened, hurry up..."

……

"Papa~!"

The sound of water dripping on the ground came from behind.

The two of Raleigh suddenly stopped their hands reaching for the glass jar, and noticed something unusual.

The sound of water droplets may not be worthy of attention, and most of the time it is not clear; but at the moment when the two of them are tinkering with the big cabinet and making a lot of noise, the sound of water that can be clearly heard on this occasion is obviously something wrong up.

"...Platinum Star!" "Ola!"

Raleigh turned around abruptly, and the stand-in had already sprinted out from him in a punching posture, facing the figure that was rising from the ground and gradually congealed into a human form with a punch——

"Oh!"

Swinging the fist and bombarding the target's shoulder, it immediately exploded half of its body, creating an exaggerated visual effect like a burst, reminiscent of the scene of a bullet smashing a porcelain bottle full of water.

But Platinum Star showed a surprised expression. His punch hardly felt like hitting an object. This lack of feedback reminded him of a weird stand-in in the shape of yellow slime. It stuck to his hand like that.

"Wow~"

After being shattered by the heavy blow, the shapeless object slid backwards, and the liquid falling from the ceiling gathered with it, quickly condensed and formed, and turned into a solid body.

The blue official robe was torn and blood-stained, and the shriveled body was wrapped in yellowing bandages.The hideous and distorted chain saw stuck to the bloody piece of meat, dragging out a trail of fresh blood; the bandage on the face was weathered and broken, revealing a terrifying skull face, and a strange red light dancing in the eye sockets...

"Why is this again? Didn't it explode just now!"

The inexplicable four-figure shape was highly recognizable, and Raleigh recognized at a glance that this was the ghost who wanted to attack him from behind when he dug out the coffin from behind the cross earlier.

"Uh!"

But this mummy monster wouldn't explain it to him. He picked up the chainsaw with both hands and chopped it up; Raleigh dodged sideways, and Platinum Star hit the chainsaw from the side with a heavy punch, instantly breaking the opponent's posture, holding Both hands of the weapon were ejected together—but Raleigh had already noticed a serious problem:

The chainsaw didn't break.

"Collapse fear!"

Catch the opponent's stance bar is broken

Immediately, as a flexible ball, he performed a two-stage spring jump, stretched horizontally for a distance of more than four meters and passed the opponent. An exorcism talisman that was torn from the door at some point.

"Evacuate first! Don't fight it in such a small space, be careful not to smash the things in the cabinet!"

In fact, it is not used to remind the opponent, that is what Raleigh planned; when Platinum and the opponent confronted each other for the second time, he himself lowered his center of gravity and used the "instant stab" bought from the player trading market to wipe the opponent's feet As he slid by, he used his Luca's shovel to slap the monster's calf hard. Although the result was poor, it distracted it to some extent——

The mummy monster looked down. At this moment, due to the distance limit, the Platinum Star had been dragged out of the room by Raleigh. Only the unknown monster stood there by itself, drowned by the smoke bombs and Taoist talismans...

On the other hand, the two players have adjusted their posture outside the door, and prepared to look at the smoke overflowing from the room; the next moment, the chainsaw cut through the smoke with a bloody light, and the seemingly unharmed mummy jumped out. He came out, and walked towards the two of them again with that terrifying weapon in hand.

"Honey, try this!"

Yu Jie stretched out his small hand, and took out a small sniper rifle that was a little bigger than his entire ball from his backpack. He didn't understand why he could use this weapon, but he did raise his hand to shoot:

【.ra shooting 68】

[Bubble Sothos performs a shooting test:]

【D100=85/68 failed】

The bullet deviated from the target and hit the ground around the mummy, which didn't seem to have any effect; and if even Star Platinum's fist didn't have much effect, the effect of the light sniper might be meaningless...

Just as Raleigh was thinking this way, the "bullet" that hit the ground instantly exploded violently!
