Choosing one of the two attics was originally a choice of luck, but now it has become a confrontation between logic and anti-logic. The cowboy boy who thinks he has a bad brain is very big-headed and doesn't know where to go.
Ye Xu saw that they struggled for a long time and failed to make a good choice, so he almost couldn't hold back his yawn. Fortunately, he held back in time, there were already enough doubts about him, it's better not to make trouble for himself.
He quietly sent a message to the male writer, sharing the information brought by the awakener with him.
The male author read it calmly, and then said: "It's meaningless to continue to entangle like this. Now you can either choose one to go in, or go back the same way. But I guess I won't be able to go back at this moment. Something like an air wall is blocked on the stairs. I personally recommend going to the attic with the door on the left, and I want to fight."
His point of view was not accepted by everyone this time. After all, he himself said that it was a struggle, not supported by evidence and inference. Then, the risk coefficient of the decision he made is very high, and there is no need for everyone to follow him directly to take risks because of their previous trust in him.
At least the female dancer had a face of resistance, saying that she would never enter this attic.
She called the cowboy who had also retreated, turned around and went downstairs. But as soon as they reached the stairs, they were blocked by an air wall.
Sure enough, it has gone down here. You must choose an attic to enter, otherwise you can only spend here forever. It's hard to say what will happen here when it gets dark.
The female dancer bit her lip and snorted: "Garbage game, you're so cruel, I'm going to this house!"
She pointed to the attic where the door was not opened, and while walking towards it, she greeted the cowboy boy, "Shall we go in together?"
This time the cowboy man was unwilling to follow her. He glanced at the male writer and said, "Forget it, I want to go to the room that opened the door."
He had a good calculation in his mind. In his opinion, the possibility of danger on both sides is actually the same. Instead of acting with a player who looks weak and has a bad temper, it is better to go with another player who looks reliable and easy to talk.
Moreover, maybe several other teammates will have the same idea as him. When the time comes, everyone will go to the room where the door is opened. There are many people and strength, so he is naturally safer than the other side. What's more, if it is impossible, he can be supported by a strong male writer.
Everyone is a player, shouldn't the other party help him? The cowboy thought of it for granted.
The female dancer snorted dissatisfiedly, and went to look at Lu Ling again. Although she felt that the safety factor of teaming up with a girl was not guaranteed, it was better than going alone. After all, the remaining painter had disappeared suddenly before, who knew what he was now, and she didn't dare to act alone with him at will.
However, Lu Ling also shook her head and rejected her.
"We are both girls, it's best not to enter the same door. Otherwise, the women's group will be wiped out accidentally, and it will be bad."
She said it politely, but to the female dancer's ears, this guy was saying inside and out: "I feel that the door you chose is more dangerous, and I will definitely be destroyed if I go in with you. So I chose to go to another door." One door, so if you die, I will be left in the women's team, which is good."
The female dancer who didn't win over any teammates had a very ugly face. In this way, she might face the situation of entering the attic alone or with the painter. No matter how you look at it, it is very dangerous.
While she was having an ideological struggle, Ye Xu hinted that he would also go to the attic where the door was opened.
Now the female dancer made up her mind immediately, she was going to leave the door open. Even a painter in a strange situation had to enter the attic with the door open, which directly caused the danger factor in that place to soar. Instead of going there to try her luck, she might as well go to the safety of the attic alone.
In this way, only the female dancer went to the room where the door was not opened, and the rest decided to enter the room where the door was opened.
The cowboy boy was actually slightly regretful, he never thought that Ye Xu would choose this side. But the words have already been released, and he offended the female dancer for this. If he changed it halfway, the female dancer might not be willing to accept him, and he would still be fighting alone, so he shut up.
At worst, stay away from the artist during the whole process, and try to ensure your own safety.
"Then let's go." The male writer took the initiative to push the door and entered the attic, and the remaining three followed. The female dancer entered another room alone.
In the attic where the door was opened, the light was still very weak. Everyone scanned with flashlights and found that the area here is quite large. The outer door looks dilapidated, but the inside is fine, but there is a lot of dust.
There are ten portraits as tall as normal people in the attic. If you don't look carefully, you may think they are ten life-size mirrors. The content on the portrait is creepy, it is actually the portraits of the owners of the ten locked rooms downstairs.
Five of them are dressed the same as the players, but their faces are different. They are ghosts that existed before. The remaining five faces are exactly the same as the five dead players, and the paintings look much newer than the other five.
"It's not!" The cowboy boy turned pale and exclaimed, "They really turned into ghosts!"
I don't know what was in this sentence that alarmed the portrait, all the characters in the painting turned their heads and looked over. This blow scared the cowboy boy almost out of his wits, and it took a while for him to recover.
"Let's go out quickly, are they coming out?!" Lu Ling's face changed, and she said quickly.
All the people in the portrait stretched out their hands, trying to break free from the painting. But their speed is relatively slow, and it takes a long time to stretch out a knuckle. But it seems that they will come out sooner or later.
Lu Ling quickly ran to the door, trying to open it, but the door was locked and could not be opened at all.
"Oops!" the cowboy smiled wryly, "It seems that this attic really invites you to enter the urn!"
The male writer is very calm: "It shouldn't be a dead end. It may be the same as at night. We need to survive for a while before we can go out. It is also possible that there is a life door in the room, such as some useful props. I personally I tend to lean towards the latter, these ghosts come out so slowly, the game must have deliberately given them time to find things."
Hearing what he said, everyone calmed down.
"Then hurry up and look for it, don't waste time." Ye Xu first agreed, and then began to search around.
The others didn't dare to delay, they found a place and started searching. It's just that they don't know what kind of thing they are looking for, so the efficiency naturally slows down. Every time they pick up an item, they have to wait for two seconds to see if the system reminds them that they have obtained a certain item.
The reality was hopeless. They spent five minutes finding nothing useful, and the attic had already been knocked down in half. Looking back at the portraits placed in all directions, those ghosts have already struggled out of most of their bodies!
Ye Xu originally thought this scene was a bit scary, but when he saw a painter-like person blinking at him, he calmed down. Cough, it's quite embarrassing to have a small spot of light in front of your own people. As an awakened person, you can be so timid.
Ye Xu reviewed himself, and then forced himself to focus on finding things instead of the awakened ones engaged in performance art.
After all, it is an existence with a relatively high luck value. After a while, Ye Xu who opened the abandoned wardrobe found an interesting thing. The wooden board that was close to the wall inside the cabinet was supported by Ye Xu who probed in to check the corner, and a crack was opened.
There is something behind.
Ye Xu was pleasantly surprised and pulled the board away completely, and found a dark and narrow passage behind it. The passage consisted of descending stairs, which looked particularly like a narrow passage leading to a basement.
"Here!" Ye Xu hurriedly called everyone to come and have a look.
At the same time, he received a system message—[Ding! You found a mysterious passage!]
"This looks so scary..." Thinking of going in, Lu Ling refused in her heart.
"This is the only way." The male writer frowned, "It's scary to stay here and face ghosts, let's go down."
Lu Ling nodded without saying anything.
Ye Xu and the male writer entered first, and Lu Ling followed after hesitating for a while. Only the cowboy boy, who has not made up his mind for a long time.
Looking at that road, he always felt that the bottom was also very dangerous. But the ghost was about to break free, and it seemed that there was no other way to go if it didn't go down.
"Forget it!" He gritted his teeth, entered the passage, and accelerated to catch up with the three people in front.
Not long after he entered, the ten ghosts finally broke free from the canvas. They rushed directly into the channel, much faster than the players.
The downward stairs are tortuous, which greatly affects the walking speed. At the beginning, the cowboy boy turned his head to check the situation while walking, but when he turned his head one time and saw a ghost chasing him, he immediately sped up again in fright, and shouted forward while running: "Go! The ghost is chasing you! "
He was afraid that the people in front would walk too slowly and block his way of escape. You must know that the road is too narrow, and he has no way to overtake the people in front. If the ghost catches up, he, the last person, must be the first to die.
The rest of the people didn't dare to delay when they heard his shout, and quickly accelerated.
Half a minute later, Ye Xu ran to the bottom of the stairs. The writer who followed closely looked at the locked wooden door in front of him. Before he had time to say anything, Lu Ling from behind shouted: "Can't the door be opened? We can't get out?!"
"What?! Is there a dead end ahead?!" The cowboy boy at the back heard the voice from a distance, and suddenly collapsed, "I'm going to be killed by you! It's all your fault for insisting on coming in!"
Both Ye Xu and the male writer didn't bother to talk to him. The male writer asked Ye Xu if he needed his help to open the lock, and Ye Xu shook his head.
"The efficiency of unlocking the lock is too low now, let's just destroy it." During the time of tinkering with the keyhole, all the ghosts behind caught up.
After Ye Xu finished speaking, he didn't waste any more time, and directly conjured up a dragon's tail, which slammed on the lock, and even the door was smashed hard. But there was a little light on the door, and it resisted the terrifying force intact, only the lock was smashed and fell down.
Ye Xu pushed it for a while but didn't push it away, then pulled it back, and now it was pulled away. This is a door that opens inwards, and behind the door, there is actually a somewhat familiar plain.
I couldn't remember where this was for a while, and the three of them didn't have time to worry about it: "Go!"
They ran out in a hurry, and after running far away, they found a bush as a cover, so they had time to look back. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but you are shocked when you see it.
—It turns out that they have already escaped from the castle!
The door just now was opened on the wall outside the old castle. If you come out from inside, you have already left the area of the old castle.
At the same time, they received a customs clearance reminder. This dungeon is over for them.
Only at this time did Ye Xu understand why the awakened person said that there was something worth exploring in that room. It turns out that there is a secret customs passage hidden in the attic, and you can pass the customs directly when you come out of it, and you don't have to go through the chasing and destruction at night.
