In a storage room, after a short silence, Bai Zhi spoke.
"... Try not to expose the effects of your skills as much as possible, otherwise the skills will be sealed. However, the skills and props that come with the equipment are not in this category."
"Since you were well hidden, why did you come out at that time?"
Turning his head, Yanhuo Fengyue spoke in a low voice.
"So, all of you are idiots..."
"You said that about him, weren't you also an idiot before? Your previous fall almost gave me a concussion... "
Throwing the hourglass in his hand to the other party again, Bai Zhi let out a breath.
"Cyborg should still be alive, at least before the damn sacrifice was held at night. The problem now is not this. We don't have the ability to save him for the time being. I am more concerned about other things... There is a traitor among us, no , or in other words, players from another world."
"Players from another world?"
After taking the hourglass and listening to Bai Zhi's words, Yanhuo Fengyue couldn't help but be stunned.
"Why do you think so?"
"It's simple, because we were ambushed and plotted by the player from another world hiding among us."
Bai Zhi's face was expressionless.
"I was already in a hurry. I only rested for less than three minutes in the utility room. However, in these short three minutes, the other party accurately knew our next destination and prepared it in advance. He set up an ambush and surrounded us there... How did he know that our next destination was the underground library?"
"...Yes, only people who have read that note like us will know that we will go to the library to look for clues."
After a moment of thinking, Yanhuo Fengyue pressed her forehead hard with her hand.
"If there is indeed a player from another world who has sneaked into our player's team, then the other party does have a reason to do this... It is its mission to destroy all our groups here."
"When you came to me on the first night, you said that [I took you to fight] was killed by someone. How can you be so sure?"
Squinting his eyes slightly, Bai Zhi raised his head and looked at the fireworks and wind and moon in front of him.
"Who did you suspect at that point?"
"[Colorful Black], because I saw him patting the other party's shoulder, and the cause of death of [Take You to Fight] was too strange. I suspected that it was because of what he did, and there was a big trace of it on his body. doubts."
Regarding this kind of thing, Yanhuo Fengyue has no intention of hiding it.
"But [Colorful Black] is dead."
"I know, but that doesn't stop me from doubting him, does it?"
"... [March of March], [Bone of Wind Breath], [Between Mountains, Seas, Heaven and Earth], the player from another world should be among the three of them."
After a moment of silence, Bai Zhi turned his head.
"Someone among them leaked the information on our side, which is why we were besieged in the underground library."
"What about [Dead Zero? Indefinite]?"
Yanhuo Fengyue frowned slightly.
"Generally speaking, those who rarely speak and are taciturn are the most likely to be the masterminds behind the scenes."
"Oh, she can't be."
"Why?"
"Because she was my ex-girlfriend in the past."
"...you have a girlfriend?"
For some reason, Yan Huo Fengyue's words suddenly became a little subtle.
"It was there before, but not now."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi shook his head.
"The topic has gone off topic, let's get down to business. Assuming that we are really betrayed by the player from another world who may exist in the team, then we must be careful in everything next, and we must find a way to Cyborg gives…”
Before he finished speaking, Bai Zhi's expression suddenly changed as if he suddenly thought of something.
"What's wrong?"
Keenly noticing the change in Bai Zhi's expression, Yanhuo Fengyue couldn't help but ask him a little strangely.
"Remember the oil painting we saw in the castle corridor outside earlier? The altar where [Colorful Black] was executed... Who do you think the so-called human sacrifice was to?"
Taking a deep breath, Bai Zhi stood up and quickly came to the window. After looking around, he casually pulled a table and stood on it.
"Those alienated guards or maids in the castle, coupled with the thousands of blood-red tentacles that shrouded the entire Rose Manor in the leaden clouds, I seemed to have vaguely guessed the truth about this Rose Manor... [ Colorful Black’s death is not that simple!!”
"Uh... what truth? What did you find out?"
Listening to someone's words, Yanhuo Fengyue felt as if he was listening to a book from heaven, and his whole body was stunned for a while.
She couldn't understand. It was clear that both parties knew the same information, but why couldn't she understand what the other party was talking about
After seeing Bai Zhi's current behavior, she couldn't help being frightened, and stood up in a hurry.
"Are you crazy!? I seem to have said before that you can't look outside for too long!? In such a short period of time, you can't recover more than half of the sanity you consumed before. Do you want to become Are they the same monsters as those guards!?”
"I said, my sanity is a billion points higher than yours, so don't worry."
Looking outside the castle, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"In addition, I can also tell you about your previous question. I suspect that the castle we are in now... is still not the real core area!!!"
Volume One: The Gap between Virtual and Real: Chapter 274 Chapter 270 Bai Zhi’s Conjectures and Speculations
"Not the core area?"
Looking at Bai Zhi who was standing on the table looking out, Yanhuo Fengyue was obviously more confused by Bai Zhi's words.
"But when we were outside before, you clearly said that the core area was inside, so how come you suddenly..."
"It is normal for the updates of intelligence clues to lead to slight deviations in the results of one's own speculations."
Looking around the outside of the castle, Bai Zhi seemed to be looking for something, and Bai Zhi answered without looking back.
"Also, do you know what mental inertia is?"
"Thinking... inertia?"
"The castle inside and the castle outside have something completely different in common. Have you discovered what it is?"
"Uh... what is it?"
"Tentacles and dolls."
After exhaling a breath and jumping off the table, Bai Zhi spoke.
"In the castle outside, you can see a collection of doll-related elements everywhere, but in the castle inside, I didn't find any doll-related elements."
"Isn't this normal?"
After hearing Bai Zhi's answer, Yanhuo Fengyue suddenly became even more strange.
"Originally, the inside and the outside are completely different. How could they be the same..."
"You also saw the oil painting in the corridor before, right? At that time, [Colorful Black] was tied to the altar as a human sacrifice. The place where the altar is located is not in the castle."
Bai Zhi found a random place indoors and sat down against the wall, and explained patiently.
"As for the [Colorful Black] doll we found in the castle hall outside, there was no trace of mutation on it. Also, do you remember what Anna said to that doll at that time? "
"Cursed... doll?"
After thinking about it for a while, Yanhuo Fengyue seemed slightly uncertain.
"But what does this title mean? And in the notebook left behind, there was also a doll appearing in the hall..."
"There is a difference between the two. [Colorful Black] was turned into a doll and then burned as a human sacrifice, but the unlucky guy who was cut into pieces by five horses did not step into this world. , he should have been killed by the invisible guards in the castle..."
When he said this, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"In the castle inside, the guards and maids are monsters with alienated bodies. In the castle outside, Anna prohibits the guards, maids and guests from meeting each other... Don't you think this is interesting?"
"...I don't find it interesting at all."
Seeing that the more the other person talked, the more confused he became, and he couldn't keep up with the other person's jumping thoughts. The corners of Yanhuo Fengyue's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Can you stop being dumb? I don't want to know the process of those inferences. Just tell me the results."
"... The puzzle pieces are still a little bit incomplete. I can't put together the final picture, but I have roughly figured out some things."
Bai Zhi rolled his eyes with a look of disgust on his face.
"Let's put it this way, is the doll curse we carry really a curse? Why can't we understand it as protection?"
"Protection... turning into a doll is protection?"
Opening his eyes in vain, Yanhuo Fengyue stared at the other party as if he had given up.
"Forget it, I give up. Please explain your reasoning process to me in detail, otherwise I feel like an idiot listening to the Bible... You succeeded in letting me find the answer because I took a nap during math class. It feels like looking at the blackboard after looking up for a moment.”
"The location of the altar should be outside the surroundings of the castle, but it is definitely in the Rose Manor. People caught by the guards will be taken there as human sacrifices, but because they are all carrying Because of the doll curse, as long as they cross a certain limit around the castle, those people will turn into dolls, thus interrupting the human sacrifice... What is this if not protection?"
When he said this, Bai Zhi looked at the other party specifically.
"In this case, it can also explain why the [Colorful Black] doll did not undergo such horrific changes, but because he was eventually tied to the altar as a doll and burned on the fire, He is also tainted with the aura of some curse, so he is called a cursed doll by Anna."
"...these clues are so scattered, how do you connect them together?"
After a moment of silence, Yanhuo Fengyue asked the person in front of him with some confusion.
"What Anna said casually, have you taken everything to heart? According to what you said, the doll curse on us can actually protect us and prevent us from turning into monsters after death... You Don’t you think this joke is cold?”
"When did I say it was here to protect us?"
Pouring his lips, Bai Zhi took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and unscrewed the cap and took a sip because his mouth was a little dry after talking for too long.
"And besides, isn't there some speculation about the possibility of resurrecting those well-preserved dolls after the dungeon is completely conquered?"
"So, even if you deduce these, what's the use?"
Yanhuo Fengyue seemed to have a headache and rubbed her forehead with her hands.
"You said this is not the core area, so killing Anna here is useless. So where is the real core area?"
"have no idea."
Bai Zhi spread his hands very shamelessly.
"… have no idea?"
"Nonsense, I'm not a god. Do you really think I'm the all-knowing and all-powerful Laplace demon? It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. If there aren't enough clues, how do you ask me to reason?"
Then he took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and threw it at the other party. Bai Zhi rolled his eyes angrily.
"In this castle, there are two bosses, which represent Anna's parents. I guess we have to foil their plot or simply kill them before we can truly find the way to the core area."
"That's easy to say. How do you want us to kill him?"
Taking the bottle of mineral water, Yanhuo Fengyue curled her lips.
"Anna's father has the ability to seal our skills, and Anna's mother has some weird abilities. Plus there are hundreds of monsters in the castle. How can the two of us do this?"
"So, we must now find a way to rescue Cyborg first."
Exhaling a breath, Bai Zhi spoke heavily in his mouth.
"He is a pure melee fighter. The sealing of his skills will not have a big impact on him. In fact, as long as we can hide the effects of our skills, we can still fight... We need helpers."

In the empty room, a young girl in black with crisp black short hair was sitting in front of the window, lost in thought.
Perhaps due to her absent-mindedness, the notebook she held in her hand had black circles one after another at some point.
