The night is late, and the rain is getting heavier and heavier.
The passionate lightning roared through the sky with the roar of the wind, and the big bean raindrops hit the glass like a violent drum, which made people frightened.
It's really lucky that this is a solid mansion, not an ordinary wooden vacation house, otherwise even the house may be blown away by the storm.
It is said that this kind of weather is simply unscientific. Wales is not located on the southeast coast of China. It feels like a tropical storm.
With the advance of time, people who used to relax and talk in the entertainment room gradually began to return to their rooms.
Anasta was the first to leave. Maybe she was so bored that she couldn't concentrate on reading that she was ready to leave early. But before she left, she still brought two brick like books. It is estimated that she plans to go back to her room and continue reading.
Then back to the room to rest was burlik, a university lecturer. He said that he was tired of looking for treasure in the afternoon.
Finally, the old count and his wife, the lawyer and the two players left the entertainment room with almost front and rear feet. The servants Charlie and Mary checked the doors, windows and lights, and all went back to their rooms to have a rest.
The huge mansion fell into darkness. With the pale color illuminated by the outdoor lightning cutting through the sky, it really had a bit of horror.
An Yizhi and Tu Hongyu had planned to wait for everyone to sleep and explore the luxury house at night, but the system sent a prompt that lack of sleep would lead to trance or death.
As the saying goes, the system is the largest in the game. There is no way, so they have to return to the guest room.
They first piled some sundries in the room, such as wine bottles in the small wine cabinet, on the windowsill, carefully checked all locks, and finally pushed the door with heavy objects such as sofa and coffee table.
An Yizhi didn't believe what waiter Charlie said. After all, it's hard to believe that the servant didn't have a key in his hand.
In addition, whenever there are copies of overnight programs, the system will arrange some "reserved programs". These two people are old-fashioned. Of course, they won't give the system a chance to kill the plot.
After confirming the safety, they loaded the pistol, held the gun in one hand, closed their eyes and clicked the sleep button in a position where they could get up and shoot at any time.
As expected, the system arranged the plot at night.
The darkness in front of you lasted for nearly a minute. If nothing happened at night, the night in the copy should have passed as soon as you closed your eyes and opened your eyes.
An Yizhi heard a sound like some heavy object falling on the marble corridor. The sound kept the frequency of "one up and one down" regularly and rhythmically. It felt a little like someone passing in the corridor, but this person must be very heavy.
The sound was getting closer and clearer until the next moment he heard a "clatter", like the noise of metal utensils falling on the floor, which restored his control over his body.
An Yi pointed to open his eyes. Tu Hongyu in the next bed was the same. He pointed to the door outside. Obviously, he also heard a strange noise in the corridor.
"What should I do? Open the door?"
Tu Hongyu came over with a gun and whispered.
"I guess it might be an option."
An Yizhi pulled out the pistol and explained:
"The plot should not be forced to happen. The system's move is to let us choose what to do, whether to open the door to see the plot, or ignore it and wait for dawn."
This choice is very common. The most recent example is the "fugitive chisa island" they met when they arranged copies with Qingfeng bazuka last time. (see Chapter 342 ~ 363 for details)
However, if you choose to go out and have a look, it is usually accompanied by varying risks, although it is likely to help and promote the subsequent customs clearance of players.
"Whether it's dangerous or not, at least let's see what's going on first."
After a few discussions, Tu Hongyu made a decision.
Then they slowly removed the tea table and sofa used to block the door. Tu Hongyu grabbed the door handle and looked at an. The latter stood at the crack of the door, nodded at him and signaled that he was ready.
Tu Hongyu was too big and inflexible, so they decided to let Tu Hongyu be responsible for blocking the door and opening the door, and an Yizhi was responsible for checking.
The door lock and door shaft were obviously carefully maintained. Perhaps Mr. Edward, who made them, was really skilled. The action of opening the door did not make any noise with the help of hydraulic power.
An Yizhi quietly peeped through the crack of the door, but there was nothing else in her vision except the corridor.
The sound source is likely to be on the right, and only the left can be seen from the crack of the door.
This is not good news because you have to lean out to see the right side.
An Yi pointed to his hand holding the pistol, motioned Tu Hongyu to open the door wider, and then quickly leaned out half of his body.
Now he saw what was making a sound in the corridor.
It looks like a pair of armor, a very typical type of European Knight plate armor. The sound of heavy objects landing just heard is the sound of it walking through the marble corridor.
But the problem is
An Yizhi didn't see its head!
To be exact, there was only a piece of air from his neck up, and his helmet fell to the ground, right at his feet. With the white light scattered by the lightning near the window, it is quite a bit of a thriller.
Is there really a ghost? Or headless knight?
East Xi'an is not afraid. He is most afraid of things that suddenly jump out to scare you. After all, he often goes to endless dungeons to brush undead creatures. No matter how disgusting monsters he has seen.
Of course, if you are a headless knight, even if an Yizhi can use all his power, he will still be beaten into an Yitan.
The headless knight is the big boss of the dead comparable to the Lich.
However, this guy is lying on the ground at this time. He feels around like an ultra-high myopia who accidentally lost his eyes. He is probably touching his helmet.
——The thrilling atmosphere is gone
It looks like a headless knight, but it can't be.
This is a temporary copy. The player's combat effectiveness is greatly limited. The system should not be so chaste as to brush out a monster that can't be beaten even in its heyday... Right?
Compared with the headless knight, an Yizhi prefers it to be something that looks like a headless knight. The best evidence is that Ann stared at it for several seconds, and the other party didn't notice it.
The real headless knight is super powerful and extremely sensitive to the line of sight. Besides, the headless knight belongs to undead creatures and hates the living very much. He can't be unaware of the breath of living people, even if it is facing himself now.
——Click!
At this time, a flash of lightning cut through the sky. With the help of the flash, an Yizhi saw that there were many brass gears and mechanical structures in its neck and under its armor, and something like a gyroscope was spinning in it.
Alchemical creation? Or Mr. Edward's masterpiece?
If it's the latter, it's too bad.
This is the real "robot". Pure mechanical creation can be explained by a sentence of black technology. It is alien technology at all!
Edward doesn't really have anything to do with something indescribable, does he? In terms of setting, those evil gods are aliens
These thoughts were turning in her mind. Ann pointed to see it touch the helmet and stay on her head. She only heard two clicks, like the sound of kikuo's bite, and the armor slowly turned around.
An Yizhi hurried back to the room, and then Tu Hongyu closed the door as quickly as possible without making a sound.
"What do you see?"
"A knight plate armor with gears and machinery inside that can move by itself."
The two of them worked on the door and whispered with a finger:
"Did you look inside the armor when you went to the weapons showroom?"
"Of course I did. There's so much space in the armor that I can hide things."
In terms of search, Tu Hongyu is not as good as an Yizhi, but he is not an invincible brave guy. He also searches carefully. He can be sure that the armor is empty.
"So... The movable armor outside doesn't come from the weapons showroom."
"Do you think it is possible to come from..."
"Secret way!"
It's really possible. Before, they confirmed the evidence of the existence of a secret road in the house, but they couldn't find the entrance of the secret road.
Since the armor used for decoration in this house is empty, and the machinery so densely filled can not be temporarily stuffed in, it shows that the movable armor comes from a place they have never explored, which means it is likely to come out of the secret road.
In other words, as long as they follow this movable armor, they can find the entrance and exit of the secret passage.
It's just that there may be some dangers.
Even though this copy still doesn't show the slightest danger up to now, maybe the system is trying to make players take it lightly and may encounter a wave of plot killing.
It's much safer to stay in the room. These doors are really as Charlie said. The outer layer is wrapped in wood and the inner is solid metal plate. They are strong and heavy. Otherwise, they don't need additional hydraulic power. At least it means that it's very difficult to open the door from the outside.
There was not much time left for the two players to decide. Heavy footsteps sounded outside the door again, and they were moving away.
"Go out and have a look. It's not once or twice to die anyway."
Ann clenched her teeth and made up her mind.
"... you say so, I feel very insecure."
Tu Hongyu doesn't have the talent to "work without dying". Sometimes he rises to die, and then he really dies
Of course, he also understands that this is likely to be a clue and prompt provided by the system to players. It may be easy to follow up with this clue, so it is not pure death.
They reopened the door, and the movable armor was near the end of the corridor.
The two of them didn't make any sound and followed at a distance of about 20 meters. Although there was no bunker bow in the corridor, they hid, but at least the armor wouldn't look back, so they didn't find them.
An Yizhi looked at the clock in the corridor. Now the displayed time is 3:15 a.m.
The appearance of mobile armor may be related to time. After all, they haven't seen it in the daytime.
The armor still didn't know that someone was following. He reached out and pushed open the door in the corridor.
The two quickly followed, but they didn't open the door immediately because they were too close. They were afraid of being found.
They didn't open the door until the sound behind the door gradually decreased. They came to the main door of the mansion, which is the corridor hall.
However
There was nothing in front of him. The movable armor disappeared as if it had melted into the air, leaving no trace.
Is it upstairs or in the direction of the restaurant?
They searched for a while, but there was no harvest, and they didn't hear the heavy footsteps, as if the movable armor hadn't appeared at all.
Is the entrance of the secret passage in this corridor hall?
The movable armor disappeared here. It's not wrong to think so, but they looked carefully during the day. There are no secret doors here.
The two players are puzzled.
The picture that "automatically changes the pattern" hanging on the stairs, at this time, the pattern in the picture is a scene of sunset, looking at two players scratching their heads like watching.
