When the day dawned, the system's notification sound for completing the task also rang in the ears of several people.
As for the two male players, they are still in a state of fainting at this time, and they don't know when they will wake up. After all, they were really frightened just now.
When Gu Wuji and the others followed the sound to find their place, they saw the two male players huddled in the cabinet and almost foaming at the mouth.
"Why do they need to, they said that it's fine as long as they come out, but they are still so tenacious and insist on staying here." Gu Wuji was still very puzzled, "What is it? We put our belongings in our pockets, and I thought they knew a lot."
Lu Yuanzhou: "...I think I know a lot of things."
Xiao Lu said: "Maybe, they think we are all ghosts."
Gu Wuji: "…"
When they walked into the hall, there were already two ghosts tied up and huddled in place, trembling and afraid to speak. One of them was the corpse that Gu Wuji found on a tree outside, and the other was the corpse that Lu Yuanzhou fell when he was on the second floor.
In fact, the latter had never left the second floor at all, and originally wanted to pretend to be a ghost to scare Lu Yuanzhou, but who would have thought that Lu Yuanzhou's trump card - that female ghost had been hiding on the second floor for a long time, and the ghost was quickly restrained.
"Is it the two guys who made the incident in the casino?" Xiao Lu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you look at it this way, this side quest will not be difficult."
"No." Lu Yuanzhou said, "Actually, thanks to... Mengmeng restrained the ghost below before, otherwise even we would not be able to deal with these two guys."
"Oh?" Gu Wuji looked at the ghost on the ground beside him, and said softly, "What's going on?"
The ghost's scalp was numb, and he said quickly, "What I said is absolutely true!"
"Look at this." Lu Yuanzhou put a note on the table, and it was the words written by the night watchman when he collapsed from nowhere, "These two guys actually owed money in the casino before. How many ghosts hanged for nothing, and their ability is to create illusions."
"That's right, that's what I learned. This is indeed an illusion." Gu Wuji nodded.
Only then did the ghost on the ground breathe a sigh of relief, he really had a psychological shadow on his recklessness! God knows how Gu Wuji threatened him with a kitchen knife when he was outside just now, but Gu Wuji was still very unbearable when he did these things, which made this ghost suspect that Gu Wuji was a pervert!
In fact, Gu Wuji realized this when he walked out of the casino before and found that the system did not remind him that the mission would fail. After all, the requirement of the side mission is not to leave the casino. If this is the case, it means that he has probably entered some illusion.
"And their ability is probably to draw out the fears in other people's hearts and magnify them." Lu Yuanzhou said: "These players who have experienced so many dungeons should not be afraid of such a trivial matter."
Xiaolu: "..." What kind of trivial thing is this? If it were him, he would be so frightened that he fainted! If it weren't for Lu Yuanzhou in front of him, he would have been unable to bear it!
"The people on these notes were barely calm when they met the first ghost, but if they met together, they would start talking nonsense." Lu Yuanzhou said: "So I think, both ghosts are When it appears, the people in the illusion will expand their terrifying imagination to the extreme, causing their mental breakdown."
"Then it's really dangerous." Gu Wuji said and frowned, "I'm a little scared when I hear it."
Xiaolu: "..." No, just like the two of you who are so calm in any situation, even if two ghosts appear together, you won't have the slightest fear!
But speaking of what happened to the female ghost you met upstairs, was this ghost disguised as well
Xiao Lu was very puzzled. Of course he wouldn't know that it was released by Lu Yuanzhou. In fact, it was to deceive the male player who had a problem at first sight... Unexpectedly, the other party ran away immediately.
The two ghosts fell into silence. Their old bottom was exposed like this, and they couldn't hang their faces! If it wasn't for those two stunned people, they would almost doubt life.
"In this case, it seems that things are almost the same." Gu Wuji looked at the two ghosts, "Wait until dawn, and leave you all to the casino owner. After all, we are law-abiding people, and we will not Do something to a ghost without authorization."
Xiao Lu: "..." Are you sure the casino owner can solve these two things!
…
…
In any case, when the casino owner and others came, they thought they would see a few people who were insane, but they saw Gu Wuji and others who were still alive, and they were very surprised.
Later, after Gu Wuji handed over the ghost to them, the face of the casino owner suddenly became ugly, so he had to euphemistically say that the two ghosts were naturally handed over to Gu Wuji, and the money owed by Gu Wuji's stepfather was also It can be written off and the bonus will also be given to them.
Gu Wuji had to stuff these two ghosts together into the box of the monster Rhubarb that came out of the world in the painting... I hope it doesn't feel too crowded here.
As for the box of the black shadow ghost, I don't know when the black shadow ghost will wake up.
And the two comatose male players were of course left in the casino. Lu Yuanzhou had already instructed Xiao Lu to take some props from them as compensation for the previous troubles when they were comatose.
The purpose of the next group is to investigate the werewolf in this village. Although they already know the secret way to enter the castle, it is intolerable for an obsessive-compulsive disorder like Gu Wuji to hang up half of the investigation. of.
What's more, this werewolf is very likely to have something to do with the boss of the entire dungeon.
After they came to the village chief's house, they smoothly got the news about who was absent yesterday from the village chief's mouth. What was even more frightening was that another person disappeared last night.
They were right before, because there have been frequent dangers in this village recently, and no one dared to go out rashly, excluding Gu Wuji and them, the guards at the entrance of the village only noticed five people.
"It's really terrifying." The village chief looked more and more vicissitudes of life, with a look of horror on his face, "If we go on like this, there will be no one left in our village! Even if the guards of the castle come, they can't find the werewolf. Who, if you can find it, it will really save our village."
Gu Wuji said immediately: "Don't worry, we will be able to find it."
"Okay." The village chief said again: "In fact, other villagers have also discovered what you are investigating. I think the werewolf should be among the no one... In short, everyone will gather at the bulletin board in the center of the village tonight. , you must not miss it."
Gu Wuji thought that this really turned into a werewolf. After all, today is the last day. If you can't enter the castle tomorrow night, then the main quest will be a failure.
Watching Gu Wuji and others come out of the village chief's house.
Two female players quietly followed behind.
"It seems that their ambition is not small. They want to find out who the werewolf is. Let's take this opportunity to enter the castle."
"Neither are you. After all, it would be too embarrassing to be a maid. Of course, if you want to enter the castle, you must be the boss's guest." The person who spoke was a beautiful female player. With a bit of arrogance, the name is Lily.
If it weren't for Gu Wuji, who was disguised as a woman, this would definitely be the most attractive female player in this dungeon.
In fact, everyone has this idea, so no one has chosen another path until now.
"Lily, then let's go to other places to investigate?" The other female player was obviously cowardly and just listened to Lily's words.
"What a joke." Lily said, "This Lu Yuanzhou is the most powerful player in this dungeon. Will he not know what we're investigating? I think we'll just follow them secretly."
In fact, she originally wanted to hug each other's thighs. After all, she thought that it was not impossible to succeed with her beauty. Who would have thought that she would kill a careless person halfway through. There was nothing she could do to make her grit her teeth with hatred.
"Makes sense." The female player nodded.
…
On the other hand, Gu Wuji and the others began to investigate around the village.
The five people who left the village yesterday probably also received some information at this time. All of them were ugly, and explained to the player that they were definitely not the so-called werewolf.
All in all, there was nothing to gain in one day. The only thing Gu Wuji cares about is that the five of them are basically related to the players to some extent.
One of the NPCs is the cousin of a player in this dungeon, and another NPC is the father of another player... As for Gu Wuji, who was also recruited, one of these NPCs happened to be the stepfather who once wanted to force his daughter to marry him. The so-called fool.
But that fool was actually a pretty ordinary young man named Jack, but he was a bit dull and didn't like to talk. He only knew how to draw and paint every day. Certainly not understood in such a village.
Xiao Lu's eyes were subtle when he saw this. After all, he knew that the werewolf was interested in Sister Mengmeng, and this young man named Jack could even draw. It was like declaring that he was a werewolf!
…
Under such circumstances, that night, a party started in the center of the village. Almost everyone gathered here, and several suspects also stood in the middle.
Even this time even the guards under the lord came over.
Players were shocked when they saw the guards. If the villagers in this village are considered to be level 10, the guards are already level 50.
If they were okay with the previous one, if they faced so many, they would simply die.
What's more, this is just an ordinary guard under the lord. It can be seen that this dungeon does not give players a chance to solve it violently.
And the villagers have doubts in their eyes, they don't believe that the people around them are actually murderers. And the suspects also looked blank and fearful, and they all looked extremely innocent.
Among the five people were the ordinary-looking village girl, the young Jack who almost became a careless fiancé, the blacksmith in the village, a widower, and finally a farmer.
They each had their own reasons for leaving, but they were all very reluctant, apparently hiding some secrets.
The village chief sighed, "Although it's a pity, all the evidence shows that the werewolf is among the five."
The players were eager to try for a while, and after a period of investigation, they had already found out what they thought was the most real result.
As long as the real werewolf can be caught here, they can enter the castle with the greatest advantage! It will be more beneficial for the main line in the future!
At this moment, the female player Lily stood up first and looked at the young Jack coldly, "The werewolf is you!"
There was an uproar among the people around, and among them, Xiao Lu's face changed in various ways.
"What evidence do you have?" Jack just said indifferently.
"The evidence is obvious." Lily said, "You like to draw, and the portrait you found in the cave is the one you almost became cute. Obviously you are the werewolf."
"You..." Xiao Lu's face was ugly. Lily just said what they were discussing. I didn't expect this woman to be so shameless.
Lily doesn't care so much, anyway, as long as she can achieve her goal, it's nothing to move a little bit, "I guessed right."
The villagers were discussing with subtle expressions on their faces. They didn't have a good impression of Jack, who was maverick, but now their eyes changed when they heard Lily's words. Even Jack's parents try to explain it to no avail.
Jack said with an ugly face: "I'm not." He glanced at Gu Wuji, then lowered his head and said, "I did draw a picture, but it disappeared before, and I don't know who stole it. Now... I would go out before, and I just wanted to go to the mountains to sketch."
"What a joke, at such a critical moment, who else would think about sketching, is it more important than life?" Lily had already confirmed that what she said was absolutely true.
"No, I believe him." Gu Wuji stepped forward abruptly.
The people around were stunned when they saw that Gu Wuji stood up, and Xiao Lu was even more sweaty, "Wait, Sister Mengmeng—"
Even a good person can't speak for such a werewolf at this time! It's all a matter of fact, and it doesn't make any sense at all.
Jack himself looked at Gu Wuji in amazement, with a touch of emotion in his eyes.
"You..." Lily looked at Gu Wuji in surprise, and then sneered again. She thought that Gu Wuji was so anxious that she panicked, so she did such an irrational thing, "Then who do you think the werewolf is?"
"It's her." Gu Wuji had already looked at the girl, "The werewolf is you."
There was another uproar from the people around. After all, this girl was obviously the most innocent looking of the five. To say that blacksmiths and farmers seemed to be more threatening.
capstone novel
"How is it possible, don't talk nonsense!"
"Yeah, Lisa is just an ordinary girl, how could it have anything to do with werewolves."
Lisa also pulled out a difficult smile, looking at Gu Wuji's eyes with a bit of sadness, "Mengmeng sister, why do you say that..."
Gu Wuji and the others also inquired about it before. This Lisa was a good partner in the village with the girl of Gu Wuji, but they didn't have a deep friendship.
At this time, everyone looked at Gu Wuji with unconvincing eyes, watching what explanation he would make.
In fact, the reason why she thought she was a werewolf was just a reckless intuition, and there was no special reason at all.
Gu Wuji had no choice but to write it now and say, "Because you also like me."
In fact, he didn't know this kind of thing at all, but since the werewolf seemed to be interested in him yesterday, then the girl who was equal to the werewolf must have not run away.
For Gu Wuji, reasoning out the truth is as simple as that.
People around: "???"
What kind of lily is this! How does this still work? ! The tossing copy of this system is still such an advanced plot.
Xiao Lu immediately sprayed it out. He looked at Gu Wuji with shocking eyes. He didn't expect that there were still two NPCs who liked her in this dungeon... But then Xiao Lu considered Sister Mengmeng's beauty, and both men and women took it all. It's also a normal thing.
Obviously it's such nonsense, but Gu Wuji's acting skills are too strong, and what he said is so serious, he actually made everyone around him believe it subconsciously.
"You, what did you say!" Lisa's face changed suddenly, and she continued: "Sister Mengmeng, I know you have a deep resentment for me taking Charlie away, but you wouldn't say such a thing at this time. to slander me..."
The eyes of the villagers all looked at a handsome brown-haired young man beside him. The man named Charlie was already stunned.
The players were also shocked. Wasn't this a werewolf killing? Why did it suddenly turn into a triangular fight for men! In other words, this Charlie is really beautiful, and there are two beauties like this.
"I know you disguised it all." Gu Wuji sighed, "You also stole Jack's painting, disguised as he made it, because you know that we will investigate from this aspect. "
"I didn't..." Lisa couldn't help but take another step back, but her attitude was not as firm as before.
"But even though you captured the child, you didn't hurt him. Because you are also a gentle person, you don't want to do such a thing." Gu Wuji stared at the other party's eyes and said, "When we met, You also ran away because you couldn't bear it. I'm sorry, I didn't notice your feelings before."
In fact, as long as you know the result, you can almost infer what happened in front of him, and Gu Wuji relied on his acting skills to say that he had really seen everything.
Lily's face changed dramatically, she never thought that the truth of the matter was like this! It's a shame she thought she already knew everything. Could it be that this guy deliberately calculated himself
What kind of lily character appears in this copy is too mysterious, what good is lily!
The villagers were stunned when they heard this, especially that Charlie, who was envied by everyone not long ago, and now received sympathetic attention from everyone.
Lisa looked at Gu Wuji's eyes but was full of struggle, and then she took a deep breath and said, "So you already know. It seems that I can't hide it anymore. You are right, I am indeed a werewolf. "
"What?" The people around were stunned for a while, and the guards' expressions changed, as if they were about to arrest the werewolf.
The voice fell, and the originally petite and weak girl suddenly increased in size, and instantly turned into a ferocious werewolf. She suddenly rushed towards Lily next to Gu Wuji, obviously wanting to break through there.
Lily was originally indulging in the unhappiness of Gu Wuji, but she didn't expect the werewolf to suddenly attack her, and she was so frightened that she forgot to take out the props.
At this critical moment, Gu Wuji, who was on the side, suddenly rushed over and stood in front of her, while his arm was suddenly scratched by the sharp claws of the werewolf.
Lily was completely stunned. She stared blankly at Gu Wuji who was standing in front of her. She was obviously such a weak girl, and she had been tricked by herself before... She shouldn't want to let herself die. ? why…
Unexpectedly, it would hurt Gu Wuji, the werewolf's movements were stagnant, and when she passed by Gu Wuji, she could only make a voice heard by one person: "Be careful... in the castle... You must not let your blood …”
I don't know if the wind was too loud or what, Gu Wuji couldn't hear what she said exactly.
The words fell, the werewolf did not have the slightest nostalgia, and had already passed through the panicked villagers, and the villagers were so frightened that they retreated.
The other players wanted to take some credit, thinking that if they caught this werewolf, they would be able to get a spot, and since there are so many people, it shouldn't be too dangerous... A few people chased after them one after another.
But their strength is not good, but after entanglement with the werewolf for a while, they soon see blood on their bodies, and there are many wounds. Seeing that they may continue to die, these people run away in a hurry, standing beside them. .
Fortunately, they haven't encountered any werewolf prototypes before, and this strength is simply to hang them! Can this be beaten
After the werewolf got rid of the player's entanglement, he ran directly to the woods outside the village.
The guards rushed over, bound to catch the werewolf. If the werewolves had already appeared in front of them, and the task had not been completed, the lord would definitely be blamed, and the punishment they would face would not be so simple.
The villagers were all talking about it. They had no idea that the ordinary looking girl beside them was actually a terrifying werewolf, and they couldn't help but feel scared.
Gu Wuji was staggering, and the werewolf's attack was really ruthless. His arm was already cut with deep, bone-deep wounds, and blood was constantly flowing from it.
It's just that everyone didn't notice that after Gu Wuji's blood came into contact with the outside air, it seemed that even the fog around the entire village was distorted, as if it had been affected by something.
Not only that, but even the direction of the castle suddenly all lit up.
Gu Wuji couldn't help frowning. For some reason, his wound always felt like his physical strength was being sucked out, which was never so serious in the past.
"Is it the problem with this copy..."
The situation of the other players was not so conspicuous. They hurriedly applied some herbs from the village to bandage the wound, and they were glad that they did not suffer more serious injuries.
Gu Wuji wanted to use his healing ability, but now is not the time when he didn't know anything before. He knew that it would be inconvenient to reveal his ability in front of others, so he planned to bandage and bandage it casually, and then deal with it when he went back. .
Seeing this, Lu Yuanzhou and Xiao Lu hurried over, and when they were about to wrap up Gu Wuji, Lily winked, and her female attendant suddenly stood in front of the two of them, preventing them from passing.
Lu Yuanzhou's face turned cold.
Xiao Lu's face changed greatly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be too arrogant, you woman! Sister Mengmeng may be kind enough not to care about you, but I'm not like that..."
His voice was getting lower and lower, and the words he was about to say were stuck in his throat.
After all, the Lily who was not far away looked at his sister Mengmeng with a bit of shyness in her eyes, and she quickly and thoughtfully wrapped her sister Mengmeng with a bandage that seemed to be some kind of prop.
That look, that look isn't quite right! !
Xiaolu: "..." What's going on! Is the lily aura of this copy exceeding the standard!
The author has something to say: I don’t even know how the plot has become like this (.) The next chapter will arrange the basic plot (… )
