Chapter 573

Of course, this has absolutely nothing to do with him not being able to swim and not wanting to jump into the water. It’s just because he, as a Grandet, naturally wouldn’t do such a wasteful thing, and he wouldn’t go in such a way that he finds it unaesthetic. game design route.

Bai Liu looked up at the warehouse door, and the door really started to creak, as if someone came back and was about to lock the warehouse door.

If it was an ordinary player, at this time, they must be very nervous and want to run outside, away from this pile of gloomy and pale old wax figures.

But Bai Liu turned off the light of the flashlight calmly, walked into the wax figure, found a small dark corner, untied his coat and wrapped his lower limbs with a gray cloth on the ground, pretending that he was a wax figure, and did not move.

And the eyesight of this group of cocoon mermaid wax figures is not very good, so they searched for Bailiu blankly, but stopped when they couldn't find it.

The warehouse door swayed a few times and was slowly opened. Two sailors came down the stairs with a small dim light, talking hoarsely and softly:

"Calculate the number of wax figures..."

"I counted it several times, and there is no mistake..."

"After tonight, there will be four more wax figures here. Let's send these four people to the wax museum first. The wax figures over there have been guarding the Siren King for too long. It's time to come out with their own amulets for activities. It's..."

"Keep an eye on the Siren King, don't let him wake up and go back into the water, or we'll all have to..."

Two sailors stood on the steps above the warehouse, and they walked down with those old-fashioned small oil lamps in their eyes. In such an environment of extreme lack of light, Bai Liu couldn't tell the difference between the two dressed in clothes. Is the person in sailor costume a wax figure or a real person?

They were too white, so white that they couldn't see through the light, and the blood vessels on their faces and hands couldn't even be seen at such a close distance from the light.

Sure enough, they were not human, Bai Liu slightly rolled his eyes and looked at the two sailors, thinking.

But it's still not quite right, the two sailors are still in human form, and the monster book says "Mermaid Sailor", Bai Liu frowned unrecognizably, and gradually had a premonition that something wasn't right.

One of the sailors was the one who told Bai Liu and the others not to run around on the deck before. His eyes were dead silent, and his eyeballs were frozen as if they would not move. Shattered and smashed, last time it smashed an amulet, and the sailor is still in the sea and cannot go ashore."

The two sailors walked up to the group of wax figures and immediately began to fix the wax figures with chains.

Bai Liu held his breath, he looked at the open warehouse door, and began to slowly move closer to it.

One of the sailors seemed to have heard the wax figure talking, stopped for a moment, frowned, turned his head to the wax figure and said to himself: "You said, did you see tourists coming here just now?"

Bai Liu's face darkened.

I made a mistake, I didn't expect that this group of sailors could still talk to their amulet wax figures.

It seems that this chase must be chased, but it is much better than on deck, after all, there are only two sailors.

Bai Liu quickly turned his brain to think about the best countermeasures. With such poor physical fitness, he would definitely die in a chase. That's why he wanted to avoid the chase at first, but he didn't expect this to be a knot-like clasp. No matter whether he was going or staying, he had to chase it. .

You can't run, and you can't go up, because there are more sailors going up, it's not a chase, it's a group attack, and you have to jump into the sea.

Bai Liu didn't want to jump into the sea, he thought calmly, what should he do then?

The sailor approached the wax figure, and suddenly seemed to have heard something extremely funny, and laughed in a low voice, which echoed in the bottom warehouse: "Unexpectedly, a distinguished guest came here in advance, please don't worry, you Sooner or later it will come to this place."

As the sailor spoke, he carried the oil lamp and walked to various corners. The dim light from the oil lamp shone from the sailor's chin, making the smile on his face even more eerie, "... Please come out quickly, at night. Fishing is about to start, and the mermaid is waiting for you in the sea."

In Bailiu's brainstorming, these sailors are obviously more difficult to mess with than those wax figures. These sailors are also monsters. What are the weaknesses of these sailors?

In just a few seconds, the sailor was about to walk in front of Bai Liu. Bai Liu took out the flashlight and pointed it at the sailor. Unfortunately, the sailor just blocked his eyes with his hand, and then put it down as if nothing had happened. Mystery: "We are different from those things, we are not afraid of light."

The weak point is not the light, the reaction to strong light looks like a human being, Bai Liu's mind was spinning rapidly, and almost the moment he put down the phone, he lifted the wine barrel behind him and smashed it, and the wine barrel hit the sailor's head. Body, scattered into a pile of wood chips.

These two sailors have a solid body, completely without the weakness of the mermaid wax figure, as if they were reborn from a cocoon.

The sailor looked straight at Bai Liu in the dark warehouse, stretched out his hand to hold Bai Liu's wrist, and smiled strangely at Bai Liu with his head sideways. The teeth in his mouth were fine and sharp: "Come on, guest, let's Go fishing, look under the surface."

Bai Liu looked directly at these sailors.

The sailor seems to have no weaknesses, but he is not a monster without weaknesses like the Siren King. After all, the system did not inform Bailiu that sailors are also monsters without weaknesses, so players should be able to use what they have to resist, otherwise they will There is no more to play.

However, the sailor refused to accept it. Both physical and optical attacks were ineffective. This shouldn't be the case. According to Bai Liu's previous deduction, both mermaid sailors and mermaids should be sensitive to light, otherwise they wouldn't come out at night.

Bai Liu didn't feel that his deduction was wrong. After all, the wax figure of the mermaid was afraid of strong light, which had already verified the correctness of this deduction, but the two sailors looked directly at the strong light without fear...

...something has covered up their weaknesses for them... The front desk said earlier that amulets can help them resist damage.

Bai Liu's thoughts turned, he searched for the sailor's wax figure among the wax figures, and found that there was a slight crack on the top of one of the wax figures, as if being hit by a wine barrel on the head, and the expression of the wax figure changed from kindness to pain, With his hands in front of his eyes, it seemed that some light was shining directly into his eyes.

Bai Liu's eyes were fixed, and he kicked obliquely, his eyes fixed on the wax figure of the sailor's amulet behind him, he turned it over forcefully, and kicked the wax figure of the mermaid in the face.

The wax figure of the mermaid fell to the ground in an instant, with rancid black blood flowing out of it, and the sailor who held Bai Liu's wrists behind him let out a sharp and miserable cry, a very high-frequency cry, like some kind of fish, shaking Bai Liu's ears hurt.

The sailor seemed to have been smashed into pieces of the exoskeleton, and began to crackle and drop lime-like shards, revealing the body inside.

Incessantly, Bai Liu also pulled out another sailor's wax figure, grabbed his head and knocked it on his knee before it shattered.

The sailor as the main body is so powerful, but the wax figure as the amulet is as brittle as an egg shell, no wonder it has to be placed in the bottom compartment for protection.

Both sailors uttered piercing screams, and the pure white complexion on their faces faded to bluish black, and their eyes moved to the sides, eventually growing on the temples.

The "sailor" exudes a strong fishy smell, and his lower body has turned into a slippery and curly piebald fish tail like an eel, with jagged teeth in his mouth, lying on the ground, using two strong bulging His hands moved towards Bai Liu as quickly as a gecko.

Bai Liu quickly turned on the flashlight and shot it directly at the opponent. The sailor who hadn't responded just now trembled and let out a more ear-piercing scream.

After breaking the amulet that protects them, the attack of strong light is effective.

Bai Liu stood on the stairs and retreated slowly, pointing the flashlight at the two sailors who were constantly climbing on the ground like geckos. Exit the bottom warehouse by the door, and then quickly close the door and don't lock it.

After closing the barn door, Bai Liu could still hear the sound of fish tails dragging on the ground from inside the barn, as if a bunch of snakes were raised underneath, and the barn door was vibrated by the blow.

[Refresh of "Monster Book of Siren Town" - Mermaid Sailor (3/4)]

[Monster Name: Mermaid/Sailor (Butterfly State)]

[Weakness: Fear of strong light, amulets (2/3)]

[Attack method: Bite and scratch (the alienation state will be triggered with a certain probability after being scratched)

Bai Liu calmly adjusted her collar and came out from the stairs of the warehouse. Lucy caught Bai Liu in an instant. She held Bai Liu's arm as if complaining and said, "Where did you go just now? They said that fishing is about to start."

"We've already reached that sea area." Lucy said with a smile, the fish scale-like lines appeared on her face, her eyes shone in the dark night, and the hand holding Bai Liu felt strangely rough and slippery Feeling moved, Bai Liu calmly took away Lucy's hand and said, "Really?"

"Yes." Lucy smiled hoarsely, "The mermaid is here."

The necklace's pendant is a one-dollar coin with a hole in it. After Bai Liu put his hand on it, he saw the game panel pop up. The panel was the same as what Bai Liu had seen before, and there was no extra information.

This should be something like Game Manager.

Bai Liu put the necklace in his clothes and put it away, he didn't like to see this kind of destroyed coins.

Bai Liu poked his head out from the back seat of the car. This is a seven-seater van. Besides Bai Liu lying in the back row, there were four other people in front. As soon as he poked his head out, someone looked at him in surprise: "Bai Liu, hey , my little sweetheart, you finally woke up!"

Except for Bai Liu, these six people obviously look like foreigners. The one who called Bai Liu's little sweetheart was a girl with big/wavy brown curly hair, red lips and brown eyes, wearing hot pants and suspenders. The moment Bai Liu saw this person, the coin on his heart popped out of the panel, with character information written on it:

[npc name: Lucy]

[Character introduction: Your classmate likes boys like you very much, but you are too shy to face Lucy who is ten centimeters taller than you and who is enthusiastic and bold]

Bai Liu's gaze paused subtly for two seconds on [Too shy], then quickly withdrew his gaze and fell into thinking.

In order to trigger the npc panel information in this game, it seems that the player needs to see it himself. It is the same as playing an online game where the mouse needs to be placed on it to pop up the information. The player's eyes are now equivalent to the player's mouse and gamepad.

He thought about it, and it seemed that at least he couldn't lose his eyesight in this game.

Lucy winked at Bai Liu: "Hey, baby, did I make you tired? You slept all the way from the time you got in the car."

Bai Liu, who had been single for a long time, was in a slightly complicated mood: "..."

Painlessly ended single life.

He changed the topic in time, Bai Liu looked at the increasingly remote and cold scenery outside the window, and asked, "Where are we going? Why does it look so remote?"

"It seems that some coward wants to run away again." A sarcastic male voice came from the front, and a tall man in tight jeans and a sports T-shirt looked at Bai Liu with disdain. The man's figure was too muscular, his jacket was stretched to the point of bursting, and he looked like a rugby player.

He sized up Bai Liu condescendingly, and said with a sneer: "It's late, Bai Liu, even if you're a coward and want to run away, it's too late, we're already on our way to Siren Town."

The panel pops up:

[npc name: Andre]

[Character introduction: Your rival in love, who likes Lucy but was rejected by Lucy, is very hostile to you. Before, you made a bet with him to protect Lucy in the most dangerous place in the world to prove your love for her, so a group of you drove to Siren Town. You regretted it before getting into the car, and even cried a lot. You were forced into the car by Andre]

Bai Liu had seen the place name "Siren Town" twice in a row. He ignored Andre's taunts at him and asked, "Siren Town, what is it?"

Andre snorted again, and was about to continue mocking, when a continuous whisper interrupted him:

"Siren Town, the only seaside town in history where the remains of the siren were found. In history, many people said that they had seen the figure of the siren here, or heard the wonderful story of the siren mermaid in the waves. Singing, I have also seen these strange-looking mermaids and sea-monsters feasting on human corpses on the dark reef..."

"Jelph! Those are just stories fabricated by Siren Town to deceive tourists to go sightseeing!" Andre interrupted the other party impatiently, but even so, an imperceptible fear flashed across his face quickly.

A small boy with glasses with a thick beer bottle and wine cap hugged the book on his chest and flinched. He seemed a little afraid of Andre, but he still mustered up the courage to retort in a low voice: "Then how do you explain it? The mysterious disappearance of tourists in Siren Town! Last month, twelve tourists completely disappeared in Siren Town! The police searched everywhere but found no results, and no one has seen them leave Siren Town..."

Bai Liu looked at the panel.

[npc name: Jeff]

[Character introduction: A strong fan of unnatural creatures such as mermaids and sea monsters. After learning that Lucy and his party are going to Siren Town, they actively ask to go together, and they know the legends of Siren Town very well]

Andre said: "Most of these people fell into the water and drowned themselves. It's normal for people to drown at the beach."

Jeff was very dissatisfied: "The police have been organizing the salvage for a month, and they haven't recovered any corpses. Even if they really fell into the sea, it's not normal..." As he spoke, his tone was low and dark When I got up, there was still a hint of excitement, "Unless their bodies were eaten by sirens, so the police can't salvage them..."

Andre finally got angry, and he slapped Jeff on the head: "Shut up! You damn four-eyed boy! Mermaid mermaid all day long! I think you look like a mermaid!"

Andre struck hard, Bai Liu could clearly see that Jeff's head knocked against the edge of the seat, and hit Andre again dizzily. This completely enraged Andre, he slapped Jeff several times with his hands, causing one of Jeff's teeth to fly out.

Jeff bowed his head in silence to pick up his own teeth, then looked at Andre with a very dark and hateful look, and mouthed a word very lightly.

The others didn't hear it, but Bai Liu's hearing was always good. He heard Zeref say: "The mermaid will definitely tear you up and swallow you, Andre."

Bai Liu raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't say anything. The relationship between the characters of this npc is really complicated.

It seems that it is not a day or two for Andre to beat and scold Jeff at will, and this Jeff seems to have planned a revenge plan with the "mermaid".

The driver of the car was a local from Siren Town whom Bai Liu paid for. From Lucy's conversation, Bai Liu found out that he was still a rich second generation, and he paid for the board and lodging of the group, and he paid a lot of money for the driver, and he also asked the driver to help find a local hotel.

The car drove until late at night before reaching the mysterious Siren town. According to the driver's description, Siren Town is a small town that relies on fishing and helping to salvage sunken ships. developed through tourism.

But last month, there have been accidents with tourists. These tourists did not fall into the water as Andre said. Some of them disappeared in different corners of Siren Town before they even had time to go to the beach. For example, a tourist stayed in the hotel that night, but he disappeared early the next morning. The door was closed, and no one saw him go out. The bed in the room was still warm, but the person just disappeared.

Therefore, due to the disappearance of tourists, the town of Siren, which is in the peak tourist season, is unbelievably desolate, and many hotels and hotels are closed due to poor management.

Siren Town is indeed very dilapidated, with flying fences and fishing nets everywhere, dried shells, seaweed, and sand on the ground, only some hotels and hotels are well decorated. It was already late at night when Bai Liu and the others arrived, but there were still many pedestrians on the road.

These pedestrians originally went to the beach in unison, but as soon as Bai Liu and the others drove in, these townspeople who were going to the beach stopped in unison, turned their heads, and looked directly at Bai Liu's car.

Being watched by so many people together in the middle of the night, Lucy shuddered a little, she screamed softly, and retracted into Bai Liu's arms.

But she was much taller than Bai Liu, with a head protruding from Bai Liu's shoulder, it looked as if Bai Liu had shrunk into her arms.

Bai Liu: "..."

Bai Liu turned around and asked the driver: "It's already midnight, what are these people doing at the beach?"

The driver shook his head: "Recently, few people come to travel and the economy is in recession, so they can only rely on fishing for a living again. If you have never fished before, you don't know. Many valuable fish are afraid of strong light and only come out at night. , so they go to sea at night."

The townspeople looked at Bai Liu with strange eyes, their eyes glowed green like cats in the night, and there was a strange expression on their faces, as if they were laughing, but the corners of their mouths did not rise completely, on the contrary they were stiff Twitching at the corner of the mouth.

They still held fishing nets and hooks in their hands, and some of them held emulsified oil lamps in their hands. They stared intently at the car containing the white willow, and their eyes moved with the car, as if they would rush up and attack the car with the fishing gear in their hands at any time. generally.

"Be careful with these guys." The driver reminded, "They are short of money recently, but you are rich."

Because Bai Liu, a rich second generation, spent a lot of money, the driver arranged the group of them to the best hotel in the area.

This hotel is a very modern and luxurious five-star hotel. It is so luxurious that it is out of tune with the painting style of the whole town. There is actually a fountain pool at the entrance.

In the fountain pool, there is a mermaid statue made of white cold wax with limestone as the base.

The wax figure of this mermaid is lifelike. Under the dim moonlight, its lustrous skin shines almost like human skin. The long hair hangs down to cover her plump breasts, and the fish tail stands in the pool. She lowered her eyes, with a pitiful expression, and held a kettle in her hand. Some fake mica pearls were scattered in the kettle, and the fountain poured from the kettle and fell into the pool, making a sound like sea waves.

The driver bypassed the fountain pool at the entrance of the hotel and drove the car all the way to the main entrance of the hotel.

Jeff suddenly screamed. He pointed to the wax figure of the mermaid at the hotel door and shouted, "She was looking at me just now! She just moved!"

White willows shuttle between the marble columns. These marble columns in the museum are as wide as two or three people hugging each other. They are located in the center of the road, and a wax figure of a mermaid is placed on both sides of the road at a distance.

These wax figures have different shapes, fish tails are on the ground, and there is no expression on their faces. Bai Liu found that almost all of these wax figures are looking out of the window.

It looks like these merman wax figures are trying to get away from here.

And the hot water pool is at the end of this long corridor. I don’t know who opened it, and hot water poured out. The whole corridor is full of steam from the hot water. The mermaid wax figure is heated by the steam. It was as if it was about to melt under the baking, the wax was dripping down drop by drop, and the body was undergoing very slight movement changes.

Bai Liu walked in the promenade as if walking in the mist on the sea, surrounded by mermaids swaying under the water.

After walking a few steps, Bai Liu noticed the wax figures of mermaids on both sides of the road, their heads were looking out of the window, their necks slowly twisted and turned, and their expressionless faces began to look at him.

Moreover, the mermaid wax figures on both sides are moving closer to the white willow in the middle at a subtle speed that is not easy to be noticed, and the melting range is increasing.

The empty, deep and tall European-style building is dark and opaque, and the feet of tourists who come alone step on the smooth ground without any haste. The wax figures of mermaids on both sides seem to be changing postures and expressions every time Bai Liu blinks. expression, and getting closer and closer to him.

Faint smiles appeared on the faces of the mermaid wax figures, which were originally empty and dead, and the tails of the fish dragged out traces of greasy candles on the ground.

They are so pale, so flawless, like a group of slow-moving ghosts frozen in this place.

Bai Liu silently counted the number of these mermaid wax figures in his heart, and looked back at these things following him from time to time to control their moving speed.

But there are too many wax figures here, and he usually stares at the mermaid wax figure behind him. When he turned his head, the mermaid wax figure with a pitiful smile in front of Bai Liu could not wait to stretch out his hands to him, ready to pinch him immediately. Hold his neck.

Bai Liu has calculated the moving speed of these things, he basically moves and turns around at a certain point, and uses the cylinder to deliberately bypass these things so that they don't form a circle.

Although these things feel very threatening, the more troublesome point is that they cannot be destroyed and are in large numbers. Once a siege battle is formed, it will be difficult for him to escape.

These mermaid wax figures are getting closer and closer to him, and Bai Liu finds that these wax figures have changed from a state close to a dead thing to a living thing.

These mermaid wax figures originally looked similar to Bai Liu's eyes, but the common faces of European and American wax figures produced on the assembly line began to change. The closer they were to Bai Liu, the more the melted faces of these mermaid wax figures resembled... Bai Liu.

The wax figures of the mermaid showed a weird smile with a strangely large arc, and they moved towards Bai Liu with teeth and claws.

Bai Liu finally reached the hot pool that the keeper said. The faucet on the yellowed and old sink was covered with rust-colored spots, and it was not known whether it was blood or some kind of rust.
