At this point, they have evolved into two powerful souls tempered by the flames of hell. Although it is not clear how powerful they are, it is initially estimated that they are at least as good as the earth-bound spirits. In other words, even without bodies, their souls alone are
Already equivalent to an earthbound spirit
Well, if you add the corpses of the two people's previous lives that were deliberately retained, and the souls and corpses merged together, in the end, two powerful worms that are not earthbound spirits but are comparable to the earthbound spirits are born. The same is true for the mummy worm and the purple-haired worm.
The main reason why female locusts are so powerful.
Of course, even though the mummy worms and purple-haired worms that have completed the integration of soul and corpse are both powerful, so strong that they are almost invincible, they can still be destroyed and erased by external forces. This means that as long as the worms suffer from
In fact, under an overly strong attack, they will still die, their souls will be scattered like regular spirits, and they will disappear forever, and the evidence will undoubtedly come from Kong Ling and Chen Xiaoyao!
With the help of his soul, Kong Ling secretly attacked and killed the mummy during the day, and then used the extremely high-temperature Nether Fire to burn the body and soul of the mummy, causing the mummy's soul to fly away. There is no doubt that then
The mummy was indeed dead at that time, and it was the most complete and complete disappearance.
With the help of the tiger talisman, Chen Xiaoyao also summoned a high-level Yin soldier at the cost of his life at night. The Yin soldier eventually died together with the purple-haired female tiger. There is no doubt that the purple-haired female tiger was also dead at that time.
The most complete disappearance.
The mummy hopper died once, and the purple-haired female hopper was wiped out once, but what was the result?
The result is resurrection!
It is clear that the two locusts have been truly eliminated, but the two locusts can always be resurrected and will always reappear in the subsequent time, reappearing in the castle in an intact manner, which leads to the source of the two locusts' immortality and infinite resurrection.
It is the Starlight Array, and the Array is clearly connected to a curse, an unexplainable curse that was personally imposed on the two undead by the Hell Demon!
Through the perfect staggering of the appearance time of the two locusts, we can first of all confirm that the original intention of the curse imposed by the locust is to prevent the two undead souls from meeting each other. It is true that under the influence of the curse, the two undead souls cannot meet each other and cannot find each other.
But the curse also gave the two undead in disguise a chance coincidence.
The body of death, relying on this cursed soul and body, at this point, whether it is the mummy or the purple-haired female, they have become eternal, becoming immortal but painful existences that can never meet.
Doomed to suffer in the cruel reality of never being able to meet again until the end of the world!
In fact, He Fei didn't care how the two undead were suffering. What he really cared about was...
curse!
Yes, the curse was exactly the curse imposed on the two undead souls by the demon locust, and the reason that prompted him to take the risk of returning to the third floor was precisely the curse. As he saw the letter and understood the hidden truth, He Fei gradually thought of something.
He seemed to have an epiphany, and vaguely discovered the key points. It felt like he had found a general direction in a foggy forest, which he couldn't explain clearly. Of course, even if he couldn't explain it clearly, He Fei still came up with a guess through the curse. A person who could directly communicate with
The logical conjecture of linking the path to survival is...
Since both the mummy locust and the purple-haired female locust are burdened with the curse of the devil locust, what if the curse is removed? Once the curse is removed, will it mean that a way out will be found?
As for how to break the curse? Or where are the clues to break the curse?
painting!
The clue is exactly this colorful oil painting in front of me, which has a strange atmosphere no matter how you look at it!
……………
Taking advantage of Chen Xiaoyao's tragic fate that he could die at any time, Qi Qifei sounded the alarm in reality.
A few hours ago, from the moment everyone left the curator's office due to the surgery, He Fei smelled the breath of death.
As the excitement gradually subsided, He Fei suddenly realized that his layout was almost disrupted. Yes, after the entire afternoon of the execution team's experience, and the gathering on the third floor not long ago to exchange news, it was clear that this mission was no longer possible.
After staying up for three days, He Fei immediately made a plan. While knowing the identity of the beast, he directly focused the investigation and even the solution on the beast level, thus concluding that if they want to complete the task, everyone must...
Knowing the love story of the man and woman in the painting, the team will not be able to deal with it unless this matter is clarified. It can be said with certainty that this plan is correct. At the beginning, every move He Fei made was quite satisfactory and safe.
It's not very clever, but at least there are no mistakes, so the plan proceeds slowly under He Fei's layout. If nothing happens during the period, the team can definitely find the clues to complete the breakthrough before the next day.
This is He Fei's initial plan. With the advantage of the number of executors, he will collect clues step by step and solve the puzzle step by step until there are enough clues. At that time, he can analyze the clues and find the real way out of the mission. The plan is solid.
It's good, but it's a pity that people's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Reality gave He Fei a loud slap in the face. In front of everyone, he had just issued planning instructions to everyone, and an accident happened...
As mentioned above, after the initial exchange of information, everyone has now learned that the mummy hawk has mysteriously disappeared at night, and the unexplained disappearance of the mummy hawk has indeed given the execution team a chance to breathe. It is said to be a breathing space. Unfortunately,
This so-called respite did not last long. Just a moment later, another purple-haired female hopper suddenly appeared! She quietly came to the team disguised as Xie Xiaona, and then caught them off guard.
!
The existence of the female locust is extremely weird. Like the mummy locust, it does not belong to the category of conventional locusts. What is even more terrifying is the female locust's ability. Different from the ferocious mummy locust in appearance, the purple-haired female locust is not scary, at least.
There is no scary element in its appearance. Not only is it not scary, but the appearance of the female locust is also very beautiful, so beautiful that it is breathtaking. It is the most unlike a locust among all the locusts that the executor has seen so far.
Because the female locust is really good-looking, the executor quickly discovered the hidden terror, and discovered that the purple-haired female locust can actually disturb people's minds! It can release a charming atmosphere through its too good-looking appearance, and the charm can make people temporarily lose consciousness.
Then he was so obsessed with the beauty of the female locust that he couldn't extricate himself and forgot to escape. Among them, it had the greatest impact on men. Of course, in addition to charm, the female locust also knew magic and could use a variety of elemental magic!
Relying on magic, the female wolf surrounded and sealed all the executors, including He Fei, as soon as she appeared. She also built a magic shield to be immune to attacks, and was immune to all the attacks that the executors used in order to protect themselves.
, even the exorcism props specially used against locusts were ineffective! Seeing that the props could not expel the locusts, in order to avoid the annihilation of the entire army, they finally broke through
After the flames were sealed, Chen Xiaoyao stayed at the scene and blocked the pursuit of Nvqi by himself for the fleeing people. After a desperate fight, Chen Xiaoyao finally eliminated Nvqi by dying together, while he himself suffered a tragic death.
In the end, if Kong Ling hadn't woken up in time and used soul exchange to barely save him, Chen Xiaoyao might not have been able to survive the operation.
All of the above are true. During this period, He Fei's own personal experience and subsequent information from Peng Hu and others were informed. After learning many news clues, He Fei fell into deep thought in front of the door. While thinking, he realized that his
The plan was disrupted. It was completely disrupted by the purple-haired female hawk that appeared out of nowhere at night. That is to say, as long as the purple-haired female hawk is around,
, it will be difficult for the executor to investigate and explore as originally planned. It is conceivable that it is difficult to even conduct investigation and exploration, let alone solve the puzzle and find a way out before the next day. He Fei thought so at first,
However, what He Fei never expected was that just when he was thinking hard and trying to analyze the identity of the female locust, Tang Meng solved his troubles for him.
He discovered the letter and the message that Tang Meng had stuffed into his pocket not long ago. By browsing the letter, He Fei gained a lot of valuable clues, and now he understood that the love story that had been hidden for thousands of years was based on
With a comprehensive understanding of the love story, he not only obtained a large number of clues, but also later found the key from the clues, a key to breaking the game called a curse!
Curse, a painful curse imposed on the two undead by the necromancet himself. Even though the two have escaped from hell and returned to the world with the help of the necromancer's spell, the curse left by the necromancet is still there. Under the influence of the curse,
, Abel and Abel, who have both evolved into terrifying undead
Although Elaine gained immortality in disguise, the two parties could not see each other. Whenever daylight began, Abel would be released by the magic circle activated by the curse, and the released Abel would inevitably fight for his life driven by obsession.
Looking for his former lover Elaine, and this is the mummy
The main reason why he always asks about Elaine's whereabouts before killing people, but unfortunately he is destined to never be found, because under the influence of the painful curse, Abel cannot stay for a long time. In fact, he can only stay in the castle for one day, and whenever the sun sets,
When night falls, initially it
The released starlight magic circle will appear again, thereby reabsorbing it and completely disappearing. But who would have thought that at the same moment when the day ends, night falls and Abel is absorbed by the magic circle, his hard-looking
His lover Elaine was also released by the magic circle!
So, just like that, a cruel situation emerged that was enough to cause both of them eternal pain. Destined to appear one day and one night, no matter how Abel or Elaine looked for each other, the two sides could never meet.
In this case, the key to breaking the situation is most likely at the level of the curse. That is to say, as long as this painful curse can be lifted, the two can meet. Once the two meet, they may stop the killing and stop the crazy killing.
Now you are the executor of the castle!
Yes, this is the result that He Fei analyzed after reading the letter. Through analysis, he who was still trapped in the mystery earlier has now uncovered most of the truth, and the truth is exactly the relationship between the mummy worm and the purple-haired female worm.
The way of existence is that they appear in the castle in turns day and night! At the same time, this also means that the situation is extremely dangerous, and the executors in the castle are destined to face
The desperate situation of being chased by mummy hoppers during the day and being chased by purple-haired female hawks at night. It turns out that’s the case. No wonder only mummy hawks are chasing everyone in the castle during the day. No wonder the purple-haired female hawks appear inexplicably at the beginning of the night. It turns out that it’s
Such a thing, in fact, to put it bluntly, the key to causing the executor to be in deep crisis now is the curse, the painful curse that was personally imposed on the two undead by the demon!
After finding the key, He Fei set off immediately and decided to return to the 3rd floor before the girl was resurrected. The result was positive. When he learned that He Fei planned to return to the 3rd floor, Peng Hu, who had just escaped from the 3rd floor, was shocked.
Busy and Li Tianheng blocked the ground and refused to agree. Even though He Fei explained the reason for going upstairs, the two still refused to agree.
, especially Peng Hu. Seeing that He Fei always insisted, the bald man directly expressed his willingness to accompany him upstairs, but He Fei did not agree. It was not that he did not want Peng Hu to accompany him, but that the operation was too important, so Peng Hu had to
Stay, Li Tianheng also has to stay, stay nearby to observe the situation, and make sure that the operation is not disturbed no matter what.
As for Chen Shuihong and Qiao Mengting...
Before leaving, He Fei deliberately named Chen Shuihong and asked Chen Shuihong to go to the third floor with him. Sure enough, when he heard that he was going to die on the third floor, Chen Shuihong almost fainted on the spot, but for some reason, he was obviously scared to death.
, but Chen Shuihong still nodded decisively and agreed, which saved He Fei a lot of time. The only thing that was unexpected was...
When Chen Shuihong agreed, Qiao Mengting, who had always been regarded as nothing by everyone, actually asked to go with him!
Seeing Qiao Mengting's request, everyone, including He Fei, was shocked. Some people even suspected that Qiao Mengting was out of her mind. After all, everyone knew that the third floor of the castle was small and almost a suicide point. Once danger happened, there was no way to run away.
There is no place to run, not to mention you are just a person with neither props nor experience.
It is precisely because they are aware of this that the experienced newcomers, including He Fei, have not paid much attention to Qiao Mengting since the beginning of the mission. Considering safety, He Fei did not ask Qiao Mengting to follow him before leaving. Unexpectedly, the other party
But she took the initiative to ask to go together? Could it be that this girl didn’t know that the third floor was dangerous?
He thought so, but with Qiao Mengting's insistence and the lack of time, in the end, after leaving Peng Hu and Li Tianheng to guard the room, He Fei let Qiao Meng follow him and hurried to the third floor.
.
Castle 3rd floor.
At this moment, He Fei, who was looking at the colorful oil painting on the wall and the male and female couple, who had now focused on the curse, was frowning. During the period of silence, a guess came into his mind. If the guess is correct, it is very likely to solve the mystery.
There is a way out, and the way out is most likely hidden in the oil painting!
only……
Where is the escape route? Where is it hidden in the oil painting? Or is there a hint of escape in the oil painting itself? (Damn it, I can't find it. If I can't find it, the female locust that can be resurrected infinitely like the mummy locust can be...
...)
After observing for a long time and finding nothing, He Fei gradually became anxious and became more and more uneasy, and then...
"Brother Chen, what do you think of this painting?" Sui frowned, and He Fei suddenly turned his head and spoke, taking the lead in breaking the long-lasting silence at the scene.
"Um?"
Sure enough, when He Fei, who had been staring at the oil painting, suddenly turned around and asked himself, behind him, Chen Shuihong was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what He Fei meant, scratched his head and immediately replied: "About this oil painting...
Um, um, I actually
I can't see anything, but I'm sure this painting should be the key, otherwise you wouldn't return to the 3rd floor knowing the danger. Of course, even if you don't go to the 3rd floor, I personally still think the oil painting is weird.
, maybe there’s something really hidden.”
(It seems that it’s not just me, it turns out that other people have always thought oil paintings are weird.)
"Yes, you are right. The reason why I took the risk to come here does come from the oil paintings. I think the way out is most likely hidden in the paintings."
"Brother He, have you found it?"
Not to mention, after listening to Chen Shuihong's quality answer, He Fei felt the same way. Unfortunately, this was not the answer he wanted. Therefore, facing Chen Shuihong's curious question, He Fei did not answer, but shook his head slightly, and then changed his mind.
He looked to his side and looked at Qiao Mengting, who had been learning to observe oil paintings on her own like a curious baby since she arrived on the third floor.
To be honest, because he had known Kong Ling and Chen Xiaoyao, two great weirdos in the world, He Fei had a certain immunity to the high school girl in front of him whose brain circuit was different from ordinary people. At the same time, he did not hide from mental illness like other executioners.
He deliberately alienated Qiao Mengting, but paid a little attention to it. Of course, it is meaningless to say these things now.
Meaning, in order to find a way out, it is necessary to work together. Seeing Chen Shuihong's general answer, He Fei changed his target and used a probing tone to ask the girl: "Sister Mengting, after watching for a long time, did you find anything? Well, I am
Do you find anything suspicious in the painting? That is, something unusual?"
Since the other party is just a newcomer with zero experience, unlike facing Chen Shuihong, a cunning old man who can easily understand everything, He Fei will naturally not be so direct when facing the girl, and will instead explain and ask in a tentative tone.
The purpose is to let the other party know what you are asking, and what did you find?
I thought that the girl would either shake her head to express her ignorance or reveal her discovery. However, as soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Mengting directly replied with something that shocked both He Fei and Chen Shuihong: "Wait a minute, brother He Fei, I haven't finished reading yet? No."
How do you want me to answer after reading this?"
After receiving such a strange answer that made people don't know whether to cry or laugh, Chen Shuihong was speechless. The girl pointed at him and asked in surprise: "What? You haven't finished reading? From the beginning to now, half an hour has passed, and you girl is still...
Haven’t finished reading? What were you doing before? Don’t tell me that you were actually in a daze the whole time?”
"In a daze? Where am I in a daze? Uncle Fatty, please don't talk nonsense. I am an 18-year-old adult after all. Of course I know what I am doing. In addition, I also know that Brother He Fei is currently looking for a way out, and
This painting is the main focus of Brother He Fei, which means that Brother He Fei has long been looking for ways to survive in oil paintings!"
"Eh? You, you girl..."
Perhaps he never dreamed that the girl could easily tell He Fei's purpose and even further reveal He Fei's thoughts. As soon as the girl finished speaking, Chen Shuihong was stunned again. After that, he pointed at the girl and didn't know what to say. There is no doubt that he was
Qiao Mengting was surprised by her answer. She didn't expect that a newcomer girl who was barely an adult and had no experience could say such a thing. Not only did she immediately point out He Fei's purpose, but she also
Even He Fei's inner thoughts are inseparable. You must know that the only people in the team who have the ability to understand He Fei's thoughts are senior people who have known each other for a long time. Even Chen Shuihong himself has been in contact with He Fei for a while.
It took a while to get to know this person, but who would have thought that this new girl in front of him, who had just met He Fei, would casually speak out He Fei's thoughts, directly and easily express what the college student was thinking?
What's going on? This girl has obviously just met He Fei? It can be said that except for the name, she basically knows nothing about He Fei. If this is the case, how does she know He Fei's inner thoughts?
Thinking of this, Chen Shuihong suddenly became suspicious and puzzled. He was about to ask, but before he could open his mouth, something happened that made the fat man even more shocked:
"Uncle Fatty, I guess you must be thinking about me now, and are you planning to ask me why I can reveal Brother He Fei's inner thoughts? Don't worry, I won't tell you unless Brother He Fei asks me personally."
Before Chen Shuihong could speak, Qiao Mengting once again understood and spoke out the inner thoughts of the middle-aged fat man. Upon seeing this, Chen Shuihong, who was already stunned, was completely dumbfounded this time and became mute. He just stared at him with eyes that looked like a miracle.
girl,
Chen Shuihong was stunned and speechless for a moment. He Fei was almost stunned on the spot. Seeing that the girl actually expressed his and Chen Shuihong's inner thoughts one after another, He Fei was equally surprised. He felt that it was nothing but an accident. Fortunately, he had experienced strong winds and waves, and
He has seen all kinds of weird things, and because of this, unlike Chen Shuihong who was in a daze, He Fei broke away and came back to his senses after being stunned for a moment. The only strange thing was that when faced with the girl's magical insight, he did not ask her why.
Instead, he nodded directly and acknowledged his inner thoughts at the moment: "Well, sister Mengting, you guessed it right. I have indeed focused my livelihood on oil paintings. After all, oil paintings are too weird, so I will paint this painting no matter what."
The painting is thoroughly understood.”
Click, wow.
After saying that, He Fei, who smelled the danger, didn't waste any time. He turned around and raised his hand to take off the oil painting hanging on the wall. He immediately turned his eyes and inspected it carefully. Obviously, he couldn't find any clues from the content of the oil painting.
, In desperation, He Fei did something that Zhao Ping wanted to do at first but didn't have time to do it himself.
He took the painting off the wall and immediately inspected it. He examined the wall behind the painting and the painting itself, trying to find clues in some way. This is what He Fei thought. Chen Shuihong and Qiao Mengting also witnessed He Fei taking the painting.
After the action, they all came forward to watch closely. For a while, the three of them checked frequently and carefully inspected the oil painting in front of them.
