Bang!
Gududu…
There was a sound of falling into the water, and Chen Chen felt as if he had fallen into the deep sea. His consciousness was slowly sinking, drifting downward little by little, and his ears were filled with a noisy buzzing sound.
It seemed like the sound of water and the noise of countless people.
The light in front of him became darker and darker, and the pressure on his body became stronger, but he found that he could never fall to the bottom of the sea.
I don't know how long it took, but just when Chen Chen thought his consciousness would completely disappear, he woke up again.
Chen Chen shuddered and slowly opened his eyes.
In front of him, more than ten meters away, was a huge ball of light. The light was soft and not dazzling. The rays of light shone on Chen Chen's body, making him feel an inexplicable warmth.
In contrast, his back, where the light ball could not reach, felt a biting chill.
Chen Chen looked around, only to see nothingness around him. He tried to move forward, but the ball of light that seemed so close could not reach him.
At this point, Chen Chen was basically certain that he was stuck in a void.
Where is this
Chen Chen was a little confused. His consciousness was still stuck at the moment when he got into the cryogenic sleep chamber.
"Welcome to the 'battlefield of consciousness'!"
But just when he was a little confused, the light ball in front of him made a loud sound. This sound passed into Chen Chen's mind with a heavy echo, making him immediately understand the meaning of the light ball.
The most bizarre thing is that the light ball does not seem to speak any known language such as Chinese or even English, but directly communicates at the conscious level.
"Two candidates have been detected and the data quantification test has begun... Data quantification is started..."
The loud voice continued, "The data quantification is completed, and the character card has been created... The character card is being created..."
Immediately, a phantom appeared in front of Chen Chen—
"Name: Chen Chen."
"Sex: Male."
"Age: 27."
"Race: T-Virus Cyborg (scientific name: Tyrant)."
"Character: Lawful evil."
"Attributes [3D6]: Strength 21 (inhuman strength), Constitution 24 (close to the vitality of a troll), Size 11 (standard human size), Agility 20 (more flexible than a cat), Appearance 10 (unremarkable), Intelligence 18 (human limit), Perception 31 (perception only possessed by gods), Willpower 17 (close to human limit).”
"Occupation: biologist, capitalist, behind-the-scenes mastermind, guardian of civilization."
"Professional skills [5D20]: Biology 95, Medicine 95, Psychology 77, Archeology 12, Occultism 10, Shooting 99, Reconnaissance 99, Listening 99, Fighting 65, Tracking 99, Defense 99."
"Special Skills: Field Power (Defense +99, Shooting +99, Reconnaissance +99, Listening +99, Tracking +99)."
Seeing these data, Chen Chen's expression suddenly became uncertain. What is this, running a group
But before he could recover, Chen Chen suddenly saw a shadow that seemed to move. The opponent was less than two meters away from him, and it looked like a black ball of flesh. In front of the meat ball, there is also a character card—
"Name: Arusayutus [young body]."
"Gender: None."
"Age: 0.1."
"Race:???"
"Character: Chaotic evil."
"Attributes [3D6]: Strength 15 (you are as strong as a cow), Constitution 35 (vitality only possessed by gods), Size 10 (still a baby), Agility 5 (you move like a snail), Appearance 3 (aesthetics) It means nothing to you), Intelligence 5 (a pig is smarter than you), Perception 20 (You have intuition that mortals don’t have), and Will 30 (your IQ is too low so your brain can’t turn).”
"Occupation: None."
"Professional skills [5D20]: Defense 80, Mind Reading 99, Mind Devouring 99, Body Regeneration 99."
"Special skills: psionic power (mind reading +99, mind devouring +99)."
Seeing this weird character card, Chen Chen's pupils suddenly shrank.
What the hell is this? Is this the true form of the monster that landed from the sky
Just when Chen Chen was shocked, the loud voice came again, "The 'Consciousness Battlefield' has been activated. We are creating modules based on the character cards of both sides. Please prepare the two candidates..."
"The dice system is starting..."
Chen Chen only saw the light emitted by the light ball in front of him getting brighter and louder, and finally Chen Chen couldn't help but close his eyes...
Buzz…
There was a soft sound in his ears, and then Chen Chen felt that the light suddenly became softer again.
He tried to open his eyes, but found that he was standing above a city.
The city below is about the size of a small city, with an area of no more than ten square kilometers. There are countless dilapidated farmhouses scattered throughout the city, and in the center of the city, there is a five- or six-story building. Small castle.
Obviously, this looks like a desolate and ruined European medieval city.
"Module has been created..."
The mighty voice continued, "Both parties are asked to roll the dice to determine who comes first."
Chen Chen's heart moved. He felt that there seemed to be three more cold things in his right hand. He picked them up and took a look. Sure enough, five golden icosahedron dice were in his hand.
Chen Chen thought for a while, then he directly raised his right hand, palm flat, and then gently released his fist.
Ding ding ding ling ling…
With just a few crisp sounds, the five dice fell directly into the void, and then stopped immediately after rolling for a while.
"15, 6, 18, 1, 5, candidate Chen Chen rolled 45 points."
The voice continued, "Now let Arusuyotos throw the dice."
Ding Lingling…
Chen Chen looked in all directions, but did not see the figure of the consciousness stealer. He could only see five dice being thrown near him.
And those five dice were all blood red.
"20, 19, 15, 20, 13!"
The voice continued in an emotionless voice, "Arusuyutos throws 87 points, Arusuyutos takes the lead!"
Chen Chen frowned slightly. Although he didn't know what it meant to throw first and second, it was obvious that the one with more throwing points would have an advantage.
Sure enough, the voice continued, "The module is about to be launched. Era: Middle Ages, Region: Castle William, Duration: 24 hours."
call…
A gust of wind seemed to blow in Chen Chen's ears. His eyes were hazy at first, but when he regained his vision, he found that he was already standing in a room at the top of the castle.
Upon entering, everything is dilapidated, with rotten furniture, walls full of cracks, and dust as thick as half a finger.
The sunlight shone through the extremely dirty glass and reflected on Chen Chen's body, making Chen Chen feel a little uncomfortable.
"You are a vampire count."
Suddenly, the loud voice became much softer, ringing in Chen Chen's ears like a low voice, "Today is the first day you wake up from the castle, and the reason why you wake up is because in your A group of adventurers accidentally entered the territory. You don’t know why they came. You only know that you have to keep them and use their flesh and blood to fill your hungry stomach.”
"Goal: destroy the invaders and survive successfully. The most important thing is to find the most special adventurer. It will be your most delicious dinner tonight..."
The sound quickly disappeared, and it was only then that Chen Chen realized that he could move. He looked around in confusion, only to find that he was wearing a hollow white shirt, and there was even a circle of gorgeous lace on the cuffs and collar of the shirt. side.
"Is this the dress of a noble in medieval Europe?"
Chen Chen murmured in a low voice. He slowly turned his head and saw a line of footprints extending from outside the door to his feet.
"These are my own footprints."
Chen Chen understood immediately. He turned around and followed his footsteps downstairs step by step. He went down six floors and then came to the first floor hall of the castle.
The hall looks huge, but all the furniture and decorations are covered with dust, and it has long been dilapidated. No one has been there for who knows how many years.
Chen Chen continued to look along the footprints, only to see that his own footprints extended all the way to the fireplace and disappeared in the direction of the fireplace.
Chen Chen immediately showed a thoughtful expression. He walked step by step to the fireplace, touched the inside, and at the same time opened up the field energy.
Under Jian Neng's observation, he immediately found something wrong, that is, there was a slight gap in a brick next to the fireplace.
He touched the brick and then pushed it in with a little force!
Rumble, rumble…
There was a soft sound, and the wall behind the fireplace slowly slid open, revealing a deep and dark passage behind it.
Chen Chen's field energy continued to explore inside, only to find that the passage was in the shape of a circular staircase, extending to fifty meters deep underground. Even the field energy could not reach the bottom.
Seeing this, Chen Chen no longer hesitated and walked down the tunnel. After taking a few steps, the wall behind him that originally slid open closed again, and the entire stairs turned completely black.
However, this kind of darkness without any light source meant nothing to Chen Chen. He used field energy instead of vision and walked down step by step.
After going down to a depth of more than a hundred meters, he finally came to a basement.
This basement is about one hundred square meters, but there are no extraneous furnishings. There is only a solid wood coffin with gold rim in the center of the basement.
The lid of the coffin was open, and there was a soft mattress inside. There was a dark box on the soft mattress, and there was nothing else.
Chen Chen took out the box, and immediately felt a sense of blood connection.
"this is… "
Chen Chen frowned, vaguely, he seemed to understand something.
"Lich? Vampire?"
Chen Chen was a little confused. Castles, coffins, and Western nobles were exactly the elements of vampires, but this weird black box had the meaning of the lich in DND.
According to the world view of DND, the lich is an undead spirit. It is immortal and possesses extremely strong power. Its only weakness is a phylactery. As long as the phylactery is destroyed, the lich will die.
Now it seems that Chen Chen has become a combination of lich and vampire.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen seemed to realize something. He turned around and went upstairs with the black box, but before he took a few steps, a special feeling of heart palpitations suddenly hit him. It seemed that if he continued to walk up, something bad would happen. .
"Can't you take the phylactery away from here?"
Chen Chen had no choice but to walk back to the basement. He looked at the rows of footprints under his feet. Suddenly, with a wave of his hand, countless dust flew up and piled up in the corners of the basement. Only then did Chen Chen see clearly that on the floor under his feet, There is actually a magic circle that looks like a six-pointed star.
I see…
Chen Chen fully understood that this magic circle was probably closely related to him. If the life box was taken away, the magic circle would lose its effect.
"In other words, this phylactery is the key to defeating me. It is forced to be placed here and is not allowed to be taken away by me. What I have to do is not only to find the group of intruders, but also to protect my Phylactery…”
Thinking of this, Chen Chen couldn't help but frowned. If he hadn't paid attention to the footprints before, he might have given those adventurers an opportunity to find this place.
Chen Chen thought for a while, and simply threw the life box back into the coffin. Then with a wave of his hand, the lid of the coffin scattered on the ground was closed. After doing this, he returned to the surface and walked out of the fireplace.
Looking at the footprints under his feet, Chen Chen activated his field energy again. All the dust in the hall on the first floor immediately flew out, and the footprints leading to the fireplace completely disappeared.
That's not all. Chen Chen went upstairs again and kicked out all the dust layer by layer. Suddenly, the entire castle became spotless. If it weren't for the fact that many of the furniture were old and rotten and showed traces of time, I'm afraid outsiders would still be there. Thought it was an inhabited castle.
Returning to the position where he just woke up, this is the observation deck on the top floor of the castle, surrounded by a glass window, and this position is also the highest in the entire city.
At this time, it seemed to be sunset time, and the scorching sun had turned dark red and was slowly sliding towards the skyline.
The sunlight outside the window shone in, and this time, Chen Chen felt that uncomfortable feeling again.
"Sure enough, vampires are afraid of sunlight..."
Chen Chen thought for a while, and then he tried to open the window a little. Suddenly, a ray of sunlight shone on Chen Chen's arm, causing a severe burning sensation in his arm.
Seeing this, Chen Chen closed the window again.
At this time, a series of blisters appeared on his arms.
"It's ultraviolet light..."
Chen Chen immediately judged it, "Ultraviolet rays cannot penetrate glass, so I am not afraid of sunlight through a window, but once there are no windows, ultraviolet rays will cause harm to me."
Thinking of this, Chen Chen looked out the windows on all sides and saw that the far end of the city was surrounded by a towering wall. There were also four gates, one each in the east, south, west, and north.
"Gate? Can the other party escape?"
Chen Chen looked thoughtful, "The voice in the battlefield of consciousness only told me that a group of adventurers broke into my territory, and my mission is to eliminate them and find the most special adventurer at the same time... Also That is to say, the consciousness stealer is among a group of invaders? So who are the other invaders, NPCs?"
"The number of intruders is unknown, the situation outside the castle is unknown, and the motives of the adventurers are unknown... It seems that I need more clues..."
