At this moment, she felt like she was in the depths of a cage, surrounded by dense blood vines rising into the sky, unable to escape or dodge!
In the moment of crisis, she ignored the fallen book and stepped hard on the round platform, causing a strong energy wave to spread out.
Wow——
Just when those blood vines were about to cover the ground, the energy waves that spread out repelled them with a bang, and the blood vines that were bunched up high and gathered passively spread out in all directions, like open flower stamens.
Then, the archaeologist quickly looked at his book.
However, the blood vine that sneaked up on her rolled up the fallen black-covered book and threw it directly to the ground along the blood pool, where it fell among a group of knights' armors.
archaeologist:"……"
She wouldn't believe it if you said no one controls the blood vine!
At this moment, the archaeologist's mind changed rapidly!
The knight's armor woke up at this time sooner or later, and the blood pool did not act when she just jumped into the air, but at this time——
When she puts the book away - when she takes it out?
Is the secret person interested in the book in her hand?
Why do you think this way?
Could it be that her frequent reading after entering the stairs or entering the underground space made the people behind the scenes suspicious?
Only in this way can this incident be explained.
If this is really the case, then it also means one thing - that person has been watching her actions!
Thinking about this, the archaeologist just feels hairy all over!
The other party watched her enter the underground space, watched her slowly explore here, and even the lights in the castle corridor may have been deliberately attracting her in!
The other party is controlling her thinking and behavior!
What's even more frightening is that the latter allowed her to get close to the cross epee, probably because he was confident that she wouldn't be able to pull it out.
She couldn't draw her sword, and she faced the threat of dozens of knight armors around the blood pool. If she wanted to break this situation, she had to think of a new way!
And her method is nothing more than "asking"...
Have the people behind the scenes figured out the function of that book?!
The archaeologist's expression changed several times, and finally he looked around gloomily and said loudly: "What a pity, even if you snatch that thing away, you won't be able to use it!"
She raised her hand slightly as she spoke, and the book that fell on the shore flew towards her automatically.
But he was grabbed by the blood vine again halfway.
The book was unable to fly under the restraints of the blood vines. It could only tremble violently and move back and forth amidst the pull of both sides.
But it was obviously not the solution for them to remain in a stalemate like this. After realizing that the person behind the scenes was interested in her book, the archaeologist felt somewhat reassured in his nervousness.
She gave up the recall letter and said, "If you really want this thing, I can't give it to you."
After the words fell, Xueteng threw the book back to the shore again, and the next moment it struck her like lightning!
The archaeologist was shocked and slapped the blood vine rushing in front of her with her palm. However, when she was resisting the attack from the front, she felt a strong wind coming from behind!
Just when she thought the man behind the scenes was planning to kill someone and seize the book directly, the blood vine flying behind her only glanced at the back of her neck.
The archaeologist quickly looked sideways and saw the blood vine smashing something in the air.
The tiny fragments were refracted by the light of the blood pool.
It seems like something was grabbed from her body?
The archaeologist subconsciously reached out and touched the still cool back collar, but before she had time to think about what it was, she suddenly turned her head to look at the living area in the underground space.
There, sitting on a velvet armchair, was a figure with a leisurely posture.
The girl was wearing a dark red horse riding outfit, leaning against the back of the chair, lazily raising her right leg, supporting her chin with one hand, and playing with her book in the other hand. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she seemed to be very interested.
.
She just sat there quietly, not knowing when she appeared.
The archaeologist's pupils narrowed and he whispered: "It is indeed you, Qilis...the master of Prague Castle, the final destination of evil spirits, the witch of blood and night..."
"Stop, stop, stop."
Xu Shuo looked up, not surprised that she discovered his identity, but said rather confusingly: "There is no need to give so many names, just call me Qilisi. So what is your name?"
Hearing this, the archaeologist's eyes flashed slightly: "In this case, my name shouldn't be important, it's just a code name."
Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows. This man was much more vigilant than the traveling poet.
Of course, it may also be because she knows the witch better.
Xu Shuo didn't ask for the name anymore. He flipped through the book he just got. However, this time, he couldn't put it into the item column of the player's manual.
[Contracted items cannot be picked up.]
No wonder archaeologists are so sure he couldn't use it.
Not to mention using it, I can't even take it away.
However, Xu Shuo didn't want to return the book for the time being. He threw the book to the blood vine and then looked at the archaeologist, holding his chin and smiling: "So, what are your conditions?"
The archaeologist breathed a sigh of relief. She covered the punctured right wrist with her left hand, while the palm of her right hand kept pressing on the handle of the epee sword.
If the other party doesn't intend to negotiate terms, she can try to use this sword as a sword.
Of course, things are not that bad now.
She quickly seized the opportunity and said: "I don't mean to be an enemy to you, I just want to know where is the handwritten letter that Green Knight wrote to you?"
"Letter?" Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows.
Is this the task of archaeologists?
However, Xu Shuo carefully looked through Qilisi's memory and found that there was no such thing as "letter".
So he shook his head honestly and said: "Alex has never written to me. The thing you are looking for does not exist."
The archaeologist was startled when he heard this, and then said anxiously: "Impossible! You definitely have an autographed letter from Greene... Maybe, maybe I remembered it wrong, but it was actually a letter you wrote to Knight Greene?"
"I think you should figure out what you want now. Whether it's the letter Alex wrote to me or the letter I wrote to him, it doesn't exist." Xu Shuo said leisurely.
"This is impossible..." the archaeologist murmured.
She opened her mission and looked at it carefully to make sure she understood the meaning correctly. In short, there is definitely a "Greene's Letter" in Prague Castle!
It is impossible for such a simple task to have text traps. Could it be that there is a third "Grimm" here?
Except for the two protagonists in the story of the script, there should be no more, and the script will not create tasks that are not part of the main line!
Thinking of this, the archaeologist narrowed his eyes, stared at the girl not far away and said in a deep voice: "Qilis, I only have this condition. If you don't intend to trade, then I can't give you that book.
.”
She suspected that the witch was hiding it on purpose!
After all, judging from the story, the witch should have deep feelings for the Grimm Knight, so it is natural that the other party does not want to give the letter to her.
The archaeologist is troubled, and the more he thinks about it, the more convinced he becomes!
"You shouldn't question me, especially with your current situation." Xu Shuo looked at her coldly, his dark eyes emotionless, as if he were looking at a dead thing.
"..." The archaeologist was suddenly startled.
She clenched her fists and suppressed the boiling anger in her heart. She wanted to take a deep breath to calm down, but the tip of her nose was filled with the strong smell of blood, which almost made her choke!
The archaeologist suddenly felt even more annoyed...
She whispered: "I'm sorry, but I really only have this condition."
Xu Shuo tilted her head, and after staring at the archaeologist in the center of the blood pool for a while, her eyes suddenly moved down to the cross-epee she had been holding down.
Then, Xu Shuo thought thoughtfully: "From beginning to end, Alex only left me his sword."
Hearing this, the archaeologist was stunned, and then his eyes lit up!
