"You have already speculated on this development in your mind, so you have left certain marks in the textbook through skills or props, just to confirm this matter, right?"
"Yes, actually you can detect this kind of thing quickly. After all, if the things you left in the room disappear, you will still be noticed easily."
Under everyone's gaze, Bai Zhi looked relieved that you finally understood.
"...So, if previous players have left any clues, then the most likely place to store those clues is in the library."
Shaking her head slightly, Yue Yue showed a wry smile on her face.
"If the previous players also discovered this pattern... No, as time goes by and the time they stay in the castle increases, they will inevitably discover this kind of thing, so..."
"So? So why are you still staying there? Do you really think we have a lot of time?"
Bai Zhi put the blown-up textbook back into his backpack and sighed helplessly.
"This library is quite big. God knows which shelf the maids will put the collected books on. If we continue to waste time, it will be noon soon, okay?"
"..."
PS. : There will be another update later. q group ① Liuba Eryi 77 Yiliu
Volume One: The Gap between Imagination and Reality: Chapter 259 Chapter 255: Information left by the previous batch of players
Although there are quite a lot of books in this underground library, the players are not slow in searching.
About an hour later, Yanhuo Fengyue found a black hard-shell notebook from the corner of a bookshelf.
"...You actually stayed?"
Looking at the notebook in front of him, which was obviously different from other books in the surrounding collection, Yanhuo Fengyue was obviously stunned.
"It's a normal thing. If there is a slightly smarter person among the players before us, then he will naturally use this method to leave information for future generations... Of course, accidental collisions are not ruled out."
Shrugging, Bai Zhi took the notebook away from the other party.
"Looks like you're in luck."
"Hey, that's what I found!!"
Seeing that it took him a long time to find it, but the notebook that he hadn't even touched yet was taken away by the other party, Yan Huo Fengyue suddenly became so angry that his teeth started to itch.
"Really? But it's mine now."
After waving his hand, Bai Zhi turned around and walked towards the table.
"Just think of it as a return of my favor... Okay, if you're interested, come over and look at it together. If you're not interested, just keep looking."
After announcing this to everyone, Bai Zhi took the notebook and sat down at the table. Without any intention of waiting for others to come over, Bai Zhi opened the notebook.
This notebook is very thick in terms of the number of pages, but most of it is blank, with only a few paragraphs of varying lengths written here and there on the first few pages.
[This is a terrible dungeon. I'm starting to doubt whether I can get out of here alive. Shift! ! I shouldn't have participated in this battle mission! !]
The words recorded in the first fragment are full of complaints from the notebook owner.
"This guy's English scores seem to be a little bad..."
While muttering in his mouth, Bai Zhi turned over a new page.
… … … … …
[This is a castle that maintains a strong medieval style. There is only one living person in the castle, or I don’t know if she is alive... Anna, according to her introduction, her name is Anna, and she welcomes us Come to her castle.]
… … … … …
[Someone died. He was the first victim among us. I think that guy deserved his death because he had the audacity to molest Anna... Damn pedophile! ! What a great death! !]
… … … … …
[Although I know Anna is a weirdo, Anna is so cute and behaves so politely. No one can resist a blond lolita wearing a princess dress, right? No way? No way? No way? Well, I hope I won’t be killed by Anna...]
… … … … …
[I started to feel a little uneasy because someone died again. This time the reason for his death was because he made a request to Anna to have lights in the castle. Anna fulfilled his request, but he But he was turned into a doll because he couldn't pay the price... In this castle, there is a constant principle of equal exchange. It seems that I will have to be more careful with what I say in the future... ]
… … … … …
[Damn it, when did we get the curse? Due to the continuous deaths, some people wanted to escape from the castle, and I joined the escape team. But when they entered the woods full of dolls, I, who was walking at the back, saw their bodies slowly turning into dolls... Fortunately, I didn't take that step, but the others didn't. Even though they were rescued, I didn’t know if they could finally get out of the forest.]
… … … … …
[Someone died again. He was found dead in the hall in the morning, and the body was dismembered. However, the death scene looked extremely funny. After all, it was just a doll... I suddenly felt a little bit I was worried about myself, because it seemed a bit noisy outside the door at night, and I seemed to hear conversations.]
… … … … …
"Like Colorful Black, he was found dead in the hall in the morning..."
Bai Zhi frowned slightly and continued to look down.
… … … … …
[I am not the one who was drawn by Anna to realize her wish today. Let us all congratulate that guy. He directly obtained a set of rare-level equipment... I heard that the European Emperor seems to have a very short lifespan?]
… … … …
[The lucky guy died. During Anna's game, he was caught by the big cat, and then his whole body was torn in half. It was so scary... Fortunately, it was just a doll, and there was no flesh and blood flying around. In bloody and terrifying scenes, there are fewer and fewer places to hide.]
… … … …
[What, there are actually several big guys in the team. In Anna's hide-and-seek game, they actually joined forces to kill the huge ragdoll cat directly, and then Anna cried while Wiping away tears, I held up my skirt and ran upstairs. The dangerous game was over... Boss, please hug me_(:з」∠)_]
… … … …
[The huge ragdoll cat came back to life again, and Anna started her hunting game again. The big guys seemed to get together and discuss the idea of killing Anna together next time. It seemed a pity... I'm not thinking of some pervert while the heat is on! !]
… … … …
[… Very bad things. The big guys successfully killed Anna and the resurrected ragdoll cat, but in the blink of an eye, Anna was resurrected, and together with the ragdoll cat under her, they had all been killed for insurance reasons The head was cut off, and the body was chopped to pieces, so that he could be resurrected... Is Anna immortal?]
… … … …
[Because the big guys actively attacked Anna, Anna was angered. She opened a brand new game called Duel Field, and the players she selected killed Anna in the Duel Field... Anna gave Give them a fair fighting chance.]
… … … …
[… bad news. Anna seems to be really immortal. Even though the big guys have many tricks, her strength is beyond our expectation. But in front of a monster that can be resurrected infinitely, even if it is burned to ashes, I I guess no one can win, right?]
… … … …
[It’s best not to go out at night...]
… … … …
After this recording, the subsequent records began to become fragmented, and the writing began to become abnormally irritable. The handwriting that was originally neat has become crooked and cannot be read clearly.
[It’s impossible, it’s impossible for us to leave this castle... I heard it, I heard the sound of the ragdoll cat walking outside my room, I was about to be found—]
—The writing scratched the paper with force.
Volume One: The Gap between Illusion and Reality: Chapter 260 Chapter 256 "The Breath of Ye Yan" Message
"There's more...?"
Originally, I thought that the records in the notebook would end here, but after Bai Zhi turned over a few more pages, brand new handwriting appeared on the blank paper.
But compared with the previous handwriting, the handwriting that appeared on the paper was obviously written by another person.
As for why Bai Zhi is so sure, it's because it says on the first line...
[The following information will be recorded by the relevant department member: Senior Investigator "Ye Yan's Breath". Other players are asked to take the information back after seeing it.]
"Ye Yan's Breath?"
After seeing this sentence, Yipan Ganggu couldn't help but let out a light sigh.
"What, do you know him?"
With his brows moving slightly, Bai Zhi turned his head and looked at Cyborg on the side. However, he expected that the other person was a military player and should be a member of the relevant departments. There was nothing wrong with knowing him.
"I've heard of it, but I don't know it. Although the military player structure is also affiliated with relevant departments, our military has a system that is independent of itself."
Looking at the contents recorded in the notebook, Cyborg spoke in a deep voice.
"Ye Yan's Breath is a system that belongs to the investigator section. The investigator section is a system that is responsible for searching for information and related rules of ghost stories. It is a very dangerous system. Ye Yan's Breath is the leader in this system. Personally The player's strength path is in the covert assassination style, and he has a good mind. He has once explored unsolvable ghost stories alone, and not only survived, but also rescued three teammates who were trapped in it... Unexpectedly He came here too."
"Really? But it seems that he didn't get out of this copy, otherwise he wouldn't have left this sentence... "
Squinting his eyes slightly, Bai Zhi continued to look at the notebook in front of him.
[The name of this copy is "Anna's Gift". The subject of the strange story is Anna herself. The entire Rose Manor is composed of the outermost mirror maze, the bushes in the middle, the forest of dolls, the open square around the castle, and the castle itself.]
Compared with the previous record which was more like an essay, after changing a recorder, the style has obviously changed.
[In the castle, there are several hidden rules. Once these rules are touched, if the life-saving ability is not strong, the end will be death. The several hidden rules that I have been exploring so far are as follows.]
[①: Principle of equivalent exchange. Everything in the castle follows the principle of equal exchange, so it is best to be careful with your words and actions. Fortunately, Anna will remind you before the exchange, but there are also cases where the exchange is carried out directly without being reminded.]
[PS: The first item of equivalent exchange that was not reminded is that after the foreign tourists arrived at the castle, they were invited by Anna to choose a room in the castle to stay. If the players really choose a room to live in at this time, then in fact they have paid the price of the principle of equal exchange, and they are burdened with the curse of being unable to leave the surroundings of the castle, and turning into dolls once they leave. .]
[②: Maid and guards are prohibited from meeting tourists in Rose Manor. Because of Anna's order, the maid and those servants are invisible to the player. Their main appearance time is at night, but after the player leaves their respective rooms during the day, the maid will enter the player's room to clean up. For these, there are two things that need to be prevented.]
[PS: Don’t worry about bumping into those maids or guards during the day, because they will actively avoid guests. It is best not to go out at night, because when you go out at night, you may encounter maids or guards wandering around the castle. In order to obey Anna's orders, they will kill all the other beings they encounter. Of course, you will also You can choose to counterattack, but it is very dangerous because the opponent moves in groups.]
[③: Immortal Anna. All known attack methods are ineffective against Anna. Even if Anna is completely killed and burned to ashes, Anna will be possessed again out of thin air. It is not recommended to attack Anna, otherwise it will arouse Anna's ill will.]
[PS: Anna is not very strong. The overall average attribute is estimated to be around 30 points. However, she has the ability to turn people into dolls. Once caught by the opponent during a battle, her body will move uncontrollably. Things take a turn for the dolls.]
[④: Anna’s gift. Every morning, Anna will pick one of the wishes written by each visitor last night to fulfill the other person's wish. This is the only known opportunity to escape from this copy safely, because you can write your own wish in it. If you want to leave Rose Manor, this wish can be fulfilled.]
[PS: Among Anna's gifts, you can get a lot of powerful equipment or items, but the limit will not exceed the elite level, and props or skills similar to resurrection from the dead will not be realized. At the same time, be careful not to be too greedy, for example, hoping that the other party can realize your three wishes, etc. This will lead to very bad consequences. If there is no game session with the dangerous Anna every day, this would be a good place to brush up on various skills or equip items.]
[⑤: Conditions for leaving the manor. There are three conditions for leaving this manor. As long as one of them is met, you can leave. However, without exception, all three conditions are difficult to achieve. Often you will die here before you meet the conditions.
[First condition: Leave through Anna’s gift. This is the easiest. As long as you are lucky enough and the wish "I hope to leave the manor safely" written on the paper is selected, you can leave this copy unscathed, but this depends on luck.]
[Second condition: Kill Anna. This is said by Anna herself. As long as she can be killed, this copy will never exist from now on. However, facing Anna who has an immortal body, no one can succeed.]
[Third condition: Live in the castle for seven days. If you can have the confidence to survive Anna's game for seven days in a row, this is actually a very good choice... but it is difficult.]
[PS: The difficulty of "Anna's Game" will gradually increase as time goes by. Often, more than half of the people will die after one game. It is quite difficult to survive for seven days. It is recommended to leave through the first condition.]
"What? If you put it this way, there is obviously a fourth condition."
After reading the large section of records recorded in [Ye Yan's Breath] in front of him, Bai Zhi couldn't help but curl his lips.
"The fourth one? There are clearly only three recorded here, and Anna herself said there are only three conditions."
Turning his head, Yanhuo Fengyue looked at him with some confusion.
"It's very simple. The fourth condition is to kill everyone except yourself, so that you are the only one left, right?"
Bai Zhi glanced at the people around him and smiled nonchalantly.
"In this case, in "Anna's Gift", isn't he 100% the one who will be chosen to fulfill his wish?"
Volume One: The Gap between Illusion and Reality: Chapter 261 Chapter 257 Investigator’s Message
In the underground library, as soon as Bai Zhi said these words, the entire library suddenly fell into a strange silence.
"Don't look at me like that. I'm just telling the truth and taking the lead in telling some possibilities."
Bai Zhi shrugged, looking innocent.
"It would be okay if this was just a mandatory mission assigned by the system. There are indeed people who resort to such crazy methods in order to survive, but this is in a large-scale battle mission."
Looking across everyone's faces one by one, Bai Zhi smiled slightly.
"This dungeon must be completely conquered, that's for sure, but even if we have obtained so many hidden rules now, how high will the dungeon's conquerability be? I don't think anyone would think about it. Leaving at this time, right? Even if he desperately wants to leave to save his life, I don’t think he can do such a crazy thing, right?"
"50%, less than half."
Turning his gaze back to the notebook, as if he didn't care about someone's meaningful words at all, Feng Xizhigu still had an indifferent expression on his face.
"It's too early to talk about this now. There are still some recorded contents on it. Let's read these things first before talking about it."
"Okay, to be honest, I'm also quite curious about the current whereabouts of this investigator. He probably hasn't left the Rose Manor."
Bai Zhi shrugged nonchalantly and opened a new page in the notebook in front of him.
But later on, the records became quite scattered. It seemed that the other party didn't know how to describe it, so he simply recorded it in a scattered way.
[The whole castle is very big, but because of the dedicated maids, it actually doesn’t have much search value. Those maids always take care of everything in order.]
