The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 48: Steady player Annan

Views:

It is neither realistic nor safe to go out with a kitchen knife and fight Amos.

Annan has never liked such aggressive tactics.

Although he has lost half of his feelings now, Annan believes that he should be a stable and developmental person.

The so-called prudence means not taking the risk of jumping over the tower to kill people.

Because jumping over the tower will have the possibility of being counter-killed.

The correct approach is to kill the opponent before he enters the defense tower.

As one can imagine, this is very reasonable and prudent.

Adhering to this concept, Annan did not directly hold the kitchen knife in his hand.

He specially picked out a thicker coat and put a layer of sweater on it. Such clothing will be a little hot, but it is bearable. Because of this kind of clothing, Annan could hang several kitchen knives on the back of the coat, the front chest and the underarms.

Pass the kitchen knife through the sweater first, and then pass the blade through the coat to secure the coat to the body. It's like a toothpick holding a bacon roll in place. These are the positions that Annan can take at any time.

But it's a pity that it can only handle those few smaller kitchen knives.

As for the biggest kitchen knife—the one that Annan threw out very smoothly, it couldn't be handled so simply.

Annan hid it in Alley's piano room, near the door.

Yes, Ellie has a piano room of her own with...a piano.

Although Annan doesn't know who invented the piano in this world and when it appeared, he knows very well that the price of this thing is definitely not cheap.

This is probably why Ai Lei mentioned in her diary, "I want to go to the concert".

It's a pity that Annan doesn't know how to play the piano. But fortunately, Amos will not lose his eyesight to see the extent of licking his face and leaning over to "serenade Dad", so it will not be exposed for a while.

Annan's intuition told him that this piano might be related to a high-difficulty or low-difficulty dungeon.

There are still relatively few deaths on the third floor. As long as the players don't run around and don't care about messy things, basically the time is just enough to read the three books in the study.

And if Annan hadn't been cautious and entered the study with a kitchen knife, when Amos came home and the portrait was screaming, Annan would definitely be in a coma inside, and then Amos would find out...or he would be howled to death directly. .

After all, when he threw the throwing knife, Annan clearly saw a slight change in the light and shadow effects in the study. That is to say, he reacts quickly, otherwise he might really spawn a few more monsters.

After all, "the guardian spirit can move freely in this painter, in all the paintings painted with this paint".

In a sense, the first half of this dungeon is actually a time-limited investigation and hiding mechanism similar to "escape". Highlight one hesitation and you lose, and don't waste time.

So what's the second half of it

Toxic cake? Will you hallucinate if you eat it

Or would you fall into a coma after eating the cake Amos bought and drinking the black tea he made

No matter what the mechanism is, Annan has no possibility to use his body to explore it.

He decides…

"Amos, come and see!"

Annan closed the door of the piano room forcefully, and then screamed in panic: "It...it's not right, it seems to have been moved!"

He didn't say the piano directly, because he didn't know the name of this instrument in this world, and he was worried that he would call it wrong.

Annan is very cautious.

Another reason is...

He knew that Amos would not be able to keep his cool if he said that.

In his study, there are shady secrets. Regardless of whether it was a thief or an undead who moved the piano...he can't call the police.

"What?!"

Amos was startled.

His first reaction was indeed to go to the study to have a look. But under Annan's repeated urging with a slightly crying voice, he rushed over in a hurry.

But Annan was very glad that he called Amos over, and didn't hold up the kitchen knife he temporarily named Frostmourne to meet Alley's father—

Because Annan clearly saw that Amos took out a revolver from behind his waist. And it doesn't seem to be an ordinary gun... There is a line of silvery text written on the body of the gun that Annan can't understand. And its caliber is terrifyingly large.

At least Annan was sure that for Ai Lei, who was also an ordinary person, this gun was powerful enough to be fatal.

"...is there someone in there?"

Amos asked in a low voice.

"I didn't see it clearly," Annan's voice was also lowered, full of fear, "but I saw... the curtain just moved, as if someone was there!"

Amos looked at the closed door of the piano room, which was tightly held by Annan, and quickly pushed Annan behind him, raised the muzzle of the gun with his right hand, and put his index finger slightly on the trigger position: "You stand behind me, Amos Lei... no, you stay away."

"Be careful, too, Amos."

Annan responded in a low voice, the left hand on Amos's back trembled slightly, fully revealing the fear and helplessness of its owner.

Amos, on the other hand, bowed his waist and pushed the door open suddenly.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, held the door tightly with his left hand, and aimed randomly in the room for a while. But of course, no one else was seen.

And he leaned in slowly, first looked behind the door—no one was there.

Then Amos raised his voice, "Come out, friend!

"—I see you!"

While saying this, Amos raised his gun and slowly approached the heavy curtain at the end of the room, and at the same time raised his voice: "Ailey, you are hiding behind the door!"

"OK… "

There was still a little fear in Annan's voice, and there was a slight tremor. But obviously, the arrival of her father cheered up "Ai Lei"...

At the same time, Annan took out a kitchen knife from his pocket with his brisk right hand. And the left hand slowly took out the kitchen knife from the position where she had hidden it before.

Then Annan took aim for a while, and quickly threw two kitchen knives at Mr. Amos one after another!

The big kitchen knife was relatively heavy, and it hit Amos on the right shoulder. He couldn't help screaming, and the gun in his hand fell to the ground under the pain.

The smaller kitchen knife was originally intended to be driven into the back of Amos' head. But he moved in pain, and the sharp kitchen knife just sliced into Mr Amos' left neck. A deep, bleeding gash was opened.

At this time, Annan had already pulled out the remaining two kitchen knives from his arms, one left and one right, and rushed forward without hesitation.

He slashed at Amos' neck with one knife, and the other knife cut Amos' right hand blocking the knife, and then pierced his eye socket with his backhand.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or something... Annan's knife just pierced into Amos' left eye.

It was the location of the scorched mark on Ai Lei's portrait!

Annan threw Amos down, rode on him, cut his throat, and nailed his eyes, ears, and temples. But Amos was still struggling, as if he would not die, the bright red paint oozing from him, oozing... a lot of oozing.

It dripped on the ground, leaching a piece of bright red. Then it gushed out, like a collapsed dam, bright red liquid gushed out from the cracks in the screaming Amos, flooding the entire room in the blink of an eye.

Annan felt as if he was immersed in sea water, and he felt a strong sense of suffocation. The whole world seems to be left with only this bubbling red ocean...

He struggled in this red sea, and gradually lost consciousness.

When Annan woke up again, he was still floating in the sea of blood. But he no longer felt the strong sense of suffocation, but was breathing normally, and a large number of system prompts flashed before his eyes.

It was only then that Annan realized belatedly...

It seems... cleared
