The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

Lin Ye returned to the safe house.

Taking a few steps forward and reaching the door, Lin Ye kicked it angrily and cursed, but he held the door handle, afraid that it would be kicked open. Lin Ye did not want to enter the copy for the time being.

Life and death are separated by a door, which seemed like an insurmountable chasm at that time.

After the wild air in the forest subsided, I used a dagger to scratch the wooden board at the edge of the sea of fog, and waited to see if the sea of fog would spread next time.

Lin Ye guessed that the interior of the safe house would not be reset, and his dagger was still in his hand instead of appearing on the table.

"You've only died twice, and you're already mentally prepared to be sent away the next time? So sad." Lin Ye covered his forehead and sighed.

Lin Ye sat on the chair and rubbed his temple gently. He had died twice and had not encountered any living people. Could it be that he was the only one in this world?

Currently known explored maps: Commercial Street.

The first time I ran through the forest, I was in a hurry and accidentally walked into a maze-like street. The environment there was completely different from the commercial street. The wet rain could not wash away the pungent smell. It should be a place like a slum.

There was no one in the commercial streets or the slums.

The safe house is located at the southernmost end of this small garden world, with the commercial street to the west and the slums to the east.

On the north side of the street that runs through the center is where Dudu Ke first appeared.

Chapter 401 Meeting an acquaintance again

"If there are only these areas, then the scope is not large, about the size of half a small town. However, the commercial street obviously does not end there, it is just shrouded in fog."

“Is it that as I die more and more times, the area covered by the fog will become larger, and finally I will be forced to fight to the death with Duduke from the very beginning?” Lin Ye analyzed to himself while playing with the useless dagger.

"The third time, did I go to the slums or the north? After all, what is the pattern of Dudu's appearance? He appears suddenly every time."

Lin Ye remembered that the first time Dudu Ke appeared, he left the safe house about ten minutes ago, and the second time he appeared, it was obviously more than ten minutes later.

Is it longer this time?

Lin Ye was not sure. He did not investigate the safe house carefully the first two times. The first time he just looked it over and found nothing. The third time Lin Ye did not want to die so soon, so he was meticulous and touched the walls, hoping to find some secret room or something.

As a result, Lin Ye really touched something.

There was a wall tile that was obviously loose. Lin Ye used a dagger to cut along the gap, removed the tile, and found a small grid with something inside.

When I took it out, I found it was a piece of parchment with an investigation report written on it with an unknown red pigment.

"This is the 34th person who has gone missing. Linton City, the steam capital known as the heart of the country, is shrouded in white fog all year round. A month ago, there was a three-day and three-night rainstorm, which dispersed all the fog. This is a good thing."

"Strangely, from some unknown time on, gray smoke would appear in some areas of Linton at night. Citizens caught in the smoke would hear beeping sounds at night, and there would always be one less person in their neighborhood the next day."

"Some people have rumored that this is the resurrection of the fog ghost. Such unscientific statements were naturally taken away by the police. However, the continuous disappearance of people reminds people of the serial killer who was caught a year ago. He is a real devil."

"In short, this is big news. If I can find out the truth about the disappearance in the fog, the editor-in-chief, Miss Beatrice, will definitely look upon me with new eyes."

"Linton City, here I come!"

Then, you sent it. Lin Ye added silently.

"The owner of this investigative report is most likely a journalist."

"So is it possible that the player is playing the role of that reporter?"

Lin Ye saw a date on the back page of the parchment: April 18, 4xx.

"According to the description above, the fog in Linton City is only on a small scale. Am I too late? The current scale may almost engulf the entire city."

"Are you asking me to investigate the truth behind the appearance of the fog sea? Or should I stop the fog sea from spreading further and not engulf the entire city?"

Lin Ye tried to find other clues. Since he had no clock with him, Lin Ye roughly estimated that it would take about forty to fifty minutes.

"boom!"

The wooden door was not as hard as iron to prevent Lin Ye from escaping into the safe house. Instead, it was rotten. A shovel directly smashed a hole in it. Lin Ye was startled. This scene was similar to the famous scene in The Shining.

The shovel was retracted, and Dudu's ferocious face popped out and stared at Lin Ye.

Lin Ye: ...

Dudu can successfully break into the door.

send.

Lin Ye opened his eyes and looked at the wooden door. Hmm, there was a hole and air was leaking. He turned around to look at the mark he had made before. The scratch was gone. He turned his head to look at the wall. The hole was still there.

After dying three times, Lin Ye has more or less figured out the rules.

First of all, every time you use up a chance to start over, the sea of fog that erodes the safe house will expand. What is worth paying attention to is whether the map outside is the same as the safe house?

Secondly, you can only exit the safe house but not enter, and you are not allowed to be locked inside forever. When the time is up, Dudu can kick it open, force the door in and kill you. The damage and changes that occur to the safe house will not be reset.

Finally, the most important point is that each time you restart, the time when the beep appears will be delayed by about twenty minutes.

By the third time, Lin Ye had searched the safe house thoroughly. In addition to the dagger and the investigation report, he also found an unopened bottle of wine, fifteen pounds, and a rabbit doll. These things left Lin Ye with psychological trauma.

Lin Ye didn't know what to use these three items for now. Due to the second rule, Lin Ye left them in the safe house. He would take them out again after finding a use for them.

Including this time, there are seven times left.

Lin Ye continued to hold his dagger and pushed open the wooden door. He moved towards the north. In the fourth round, Lin Ye had seventy minutes of safety time.

They walked along the open street, passing the place where Tutu Ke first appeared, and walked for another ten minutes. This was a main road in the city, and the walk was so long that there was no end in sight. Lin Ye was ready to try to drive a steam locomotive.

At this moment, a subtle sound was heard.

Lin Ye immediately became alert. Once bitten by a snake, he would be afraid of ropes for ten years. Lin Ye looked in the direction where the sound came from.

In the shadow of the night, in an alley where the moonlight could not reach, a person with an unclear face stretched out his hand and beckoned Lin Ye to come over.

Lin Ye almost shed tears. It wasn’t easy, he finally met...someone?

No, what if it’s some other monster?

Lin Ye bet that the third rule would take effect and Dudu would not appear at this time, so he asked.

"who are you?"

“…If you don’t want to die, come here quickly.”

It was a cold and unfriendly young female voice, spoken softly.

Lin Ye felt that it sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

After thinking about it, Lin Ye decided to go ahead. He had the capital to make mistakes.

Walking quickly towards the dark alley, Lin Ye was about two steps away from the man.

"Don't say anything, just follow me. It's not safe here." The woman whispered, afraid of attracting attention.

"Yeah." Lin Ye answered in the same low voice.

The woman walked in front, and Lin Ye followed behind her.

After turning left and right, I saw a street I had never been to. I walked for a while and then suddenly stopped.

Lin Ye stopped and observed the surroundings, confident that he could find his way here.

"I will take you to a safe place later, but remember, I am not here to save you, I am here to save myself."

The woman turned around, her sapphire eyes were cold and sharp as a knife. She stared at Lin Ye and warned him condescendingly.

"I don't know how someone like you who walks the streets so brazenly has survived until now? Anyway, I found you, and you have to join the group."

What kind of arrogant statement is this?

But Lin Ye listened to the woman's tone, which was neither coquettish nor arrogant, but just an objective and ruthless statement of a fact.

Lin Ye looked at the woman, and what surprised the boy more than what she said was her face.

"Does Alice know you too?"

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, my name is Lin Ye, what's yours?"

"You don't need to try to get close to me. For my own survival, I will find a way to keep you alive. But if you don't obey, you can only be treated as a sheep in a pen."

"Also, my name is Sorolla."

Chapter 402: Homo is Everywhere

They look exactly the same and their names haven't changed.

Sorolla.

The witch lady that Lin Ye met in Old Mondstadt, later she went to Qingquan Town, or left Mondstadt.

After Lin Ye defeated Eberhardt, the earth vein memory world quickly dissipated and he had no time to look for the witch lady.

I didn't expect that we would have the chance to meet again.

However, the Sorolla in front of him was not the witch lady that Lin Ye knew. She was an NPC created by Ms. Alice. How could she remember Lin Ye?

Not the same person at all.

"Sorola, is there anyone else besides you?" Lin Ye asked.

Faced with Lin Ye's familiarity, Sorolla snorted lightly, looked at the boy with a strange face, and said coldly.

"There are four more people. You should pray that Joseph will take you in."

Including Sorolla, that makes five of us.

Lin Ye felt very happy, at least he was not fighting alone anymore. As for Sorolla's warning, Lin Ye did not care.

He believed that with his strong personality charm, he would be able to conquer the other party...

ten minutes later.

The smell of cheap tobacco wafted into Lin Ye's nose. He looked at the red-haired young man with a look of annoyance. The other man had a cigarette in his mouth and was looking at Lin Ye as if he was a burden.

"Sorolla, where did you pick up that trash?"

After he finished speaking, he was choked by the smoke and started coughing continuously, a heart-wrenching cough, as if he was coughing out his lungs, and an unhealthy redness appeared on his face.

This was an underground dark room. When Lin Ye came down, he saw that there were other passages. At this time, a kerosene lamp was hanging from the ceiling of the dark room, and the vision was dim.

In addition to Joseph, who had his thighs resting on the table, there was an old man sitting cross-legged in the corner. He wore a steel helmet on his head and kept his head down, saying nothing.

The forest turned a deaf ear to Joseph's insults, and was more envious of the insects.

Noisy, he cares more about the quality of his teammates.

Ruined.

A sickly chain smoker.

An old man.

"Where are the other two?" Lin Ye looked at Sorolla.

Sorolla raised his eyebrows, but before he could say anything, he saw Joseph put his legs down, stood up and strode to Lin Ye.

Joseph was thin but tall. He grinned at Lin Ye, then turned his head, spat out a half-smoked cigarette, and crushed it out with his feet. His eyes were as fierce as a knife scraping flesh, and he stared at Lin Ye with ill intentions.

"Where are you from, kid?"

Lin Ye came into close contact with Joseph. When the other party opened his mouth, a foul smell came out. Lin Ye took a step back, but in Joseph's eyes, this action meant being a coward.

Joseph shook his shoulders and chuckled, his eyes looking like a human trafficker looking at merchandise.

"If one person dies, you will also be closer to death. The sea of fog will swallow everyone." Sorolla said coldly.

Joseph tilted his neck and looked at Sorolla with contempt, saying impatiently.

"Shut up! I don't need you to remind me! If it weren't for this shitty rule, would I need to take care of a disabled person, a little kid?"

After venting his dissatisfaction, Joseph glanced at Lin Ye's appearance and said sarcastically, "This guy is not bad looking, with delicate skin and tender flesh. You are hiding from me and pretending to be pure. Why don't you find a lover?"

"He is not my lover." Sorolla said calmly, his eyes showing no sign of hiding his disgust for Joseph.

Lin Ye, the person involved, found it interesting. Everyone disliked each other, but for the sake of a certain rule, they had to stick together for warmth and even beg you not to die.

"Since you are not my lover, then you belong to me." Joseph said with a smile.

Lin Ye:? ?

Boy, homosexuals are everywhere.
