He was taking a risk. He didn't hide even though he knew that the nymphs had evolved into a large number of bats and scattered everywhere. Instead, he quickly rushed to the edge of the Western District with Li Tianheng, who didn't know whether he was still breathing or beating. He was frightened all the way.
Chen Shuihong was indeed frightened when he encountered Qi, but fortunately nothing happened. Finally, after passing the last corner of the corridor, he arrived at the end and saw the curator's office, which represented hope!
Not only that, maybe it was a coincidence or other reasons, when Chen Shuihong ran closer and closer, the door happened to open. As the door opened, Tang Meng staggered out with a tired look on his face.
"Ah! Miss Tang, hurry up, save him, Brother Li is dying!"
Not to mention how Chen Shuihong was currently carrying the wounded and shouting urgently. At the same time, when Chen Shuihong was in a hurry, the screen switched to the first floor below.
The second day of the supernatural mission, the time is 3:20 in the morning.
There was a dull silence in the dark room. Unfortunately, the darkness did not last long, and the silence also did not last long. Soon, as a finger pressed the flashlight switch, a beam of light pierced the darkness, and along with it, there was a sentence full of panic and suspicion.
question:
"You, what are you?"
Richard never dreamed that the bespectacled man named Zhao would turn on the flashlight without any warning. Seeing this, he looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. The security captain's face suddenly changed and he quickly asked: "Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"
?”
Facing the question, Zhao Ping maintained a calm expression on the other side. He did not answer immediately. Instead, he turned his flashlight and looked around until he confirmed that the room was completely empty. After adjusting the bridge of his nose and glasses, the man casually gave an explanation that he did not know whether it was true or not: "
Bats are nocturnal animals with severely degraded vision. They are basically blind. Their method of finding prey has always been sound wave detection, and they cannot see light sources."
(asshole!)
"You know what you said, there is no need for you to popularize biological knowledge to me!" Seeing the bespectacled man talking slowly and logically, Richard was furious, and immediately frowned and refuted: "But the problem is that it is not ordinary
The bats are transformed from female weevils. Oh my god, there are hundreds of bats! They are flying everywhere in the castle now. I don’t want to listen to nonsense now. I just want to escape and leave this demonized place as soon as possible.
The castle occupied by the wolf!"
It's already obvious. If nothing else, just from the conversation between the two, you can tell at a glance that they are avoiding and staying in a relatively hidden room for a long time, which is why the two of them haven't gone out for a long time.
The real nymph, that one is not much different from the witch in Richard's eyes
If the other party is not a witch, how did Jim die? How did Thomas die? And how did the nymph evolve into hundreds of bats? Don’t forget that all of the above can be done
It really happened and was even witnessed by Richard himself.
That's a demon locust, a hell locust that's a hundred times scarier than a ghost!
So, Richard understood and completely woke up. Even though he was not an executor who had a deep understanding of supernatural phenomena, he still realized it through several personal experiences in succession. He understood that the castle had become a restricted area of life. If he didn't want to be like Jim,
If someone dies without a whole body, then he must escape from the castle and leave this death castle occupied by demon locusts!
That's what he thought, but the reality is... He can't escape, he can't leave, let alone continue to build ladders to escape from the castle. Currently, he doesn't even dare to leave the room because the female tiger has turned into a bat.
, more than a hundred bats representing female cockroaches were flying freely in the castle. What did this mean? It meant that he was not
If he could go out, once he was discovered by a bat, the consequences could be imagined. It was precisely because he knew this that after he witnessed the female mantle transforming into a large number of bats through the crack in the door, Richard stayed in the room for the next few hours.
I never went out, never left the room from beginning to end, and just hid in there with fear until...
Until 10 minutes ago, he heard movement, accompanied by the sound of footsteps outside the door. Soon, the door was pushed open, and then a man walked in. It was no one else, it was the man who had attacked him not long ago.
glasses man!
……………
As expected of a former Marine with extremely quick reactions, when he saw that the person coming was the man with glasses who attacked him a few hours ago, Richard quickly took out his gun and pointed the gun at the man with glasses immediately. However, Richard
What was surprising was that, facing the deadly muzzle of the black hole, the man with glasses was not afraid or panicked, but responded calmly without changing his expression. At the same time, he said something that left Richard confused and inexplicable as the opening remarks of the meeting:
"If you still want to leave the castle alive, I advise you to put away your gun."
"Oh, by the way, my true identity, Zhao Ping, is an exorcist."
After the introduction of identity that was enough to make others salivate but only left Richard confused, in the following time, the man with glasses... no, it should be Zhao Ping who started the explanation. Through Zhao Ping's narration, Richard
Only then did we know that this group of Orientals were indeed employed by the government
, but they are not from a serious security company like Richard and others, but a group of Eastern exorcists who are said to have special methods. They are usually best at dealing with spirits. The reason why they were hired by the government to come to the castle is
Because there have been rumors that Chris Castle
That is to say, the museum is troubled. At first, when the castle was still owned by the museum, the government didn't care. However, when they thought that the castle would be taken over by the government soon, the government thought of it and decided to invite a group of exorcists with real skills to come to the castle to eliminate it.
Hidden danger, so Zhao Ping
A group of exorcists were invited and stationed in the castle together with Richard and his group of security guards who were solely responsible for the security of the castle's collections. The so-called security status was just a pre-prepared rhetoric to prevent panic, but in fact it was an extermination of spirits.
That's their real job.
The work went smoothly at the beginning. After arriving at the castle, everyone first browsed the castle as planned, searching for abnormalities. The abnormality was indeed quickly discovered during their search, that is, there were indeed locusts in the castle, and two locusts were hidden in the castle.
!A male locust and a female locust, but I didn’t expect that the two locusts would become so violently metamorphosed! Many
Sensing that the exorcist was about to harm them, the two cockroaches took the initiative and started killing people in the castle. This was the main reason why Richard and his group of security guards died tragically one after another. Similarly, in order to deal with the cockroaches,
Two members of the Exorcist team also died, and several others were seriously injured and their lives were in danger.
After listening to Zhao Ping's seemingly logical explanation, Richard basically believed most of it. Yes, he couldn't help but not believe it, because he had seen a locust with his own eyes! Whether it was a mummy locust during the day or a purple-haired female locust at night.
, Richard has seen them all, and even witnessed the female locust sucking Jim and Jim into powder at close range. It is conceivable that even the locusts are real, and it is reasonable for the exorcist to appear in the castle.
Of course, even if Richard basically believed Zhao Ping's identity as an exorcist, Richard still raised two questions in the following time. First, why did Zhao Ping kill him? Even if you guys from the East are exorcists,
As a demon, he came to the castle to get rid of spirits, but Richard didn't
It's not a wolf. If not, then what's the matter with the other party sneaking up on you? Secondly, since you are professional exorcists, why can't you defeat the wolf? Why did the situation evolve into this? Why, including the exorcists,
All the humans in the castle suffered heavy casualties!?
Faced with Richard's in-depth inquiries, Zhao Ping remained calm and explained in a leisurely tone, but the reason was something Richard couldn't understand. The reason was the soul imprint. Yes, Zhao Ping discovered that the female locust was appearing.
At the beginning, a part of his soul was imprinted on Richard.
It is a kind of back-up plan, that is to say, if the female tiger is eliminated, then the female tiger can be resurrected with the mark engraved on Richard's body, and this is the reason why he wants to kill Richard, the purpose
It's just to eliminate hidden dangers, but it doesn't matter, it's not necessary now
Yes, because the female demon is too powerful, so powerful that she is completely invincible. No exorcist can be the opponent of the female demon. This also explains Richard’s second question, that is, why do exorcists deal with
Can't get the Castle Lady? The reason was just mentioned. It's not them.
I don’t want to deal with it, but the strength of the female locust is far beyond expectations, so for now, no matter who it is, including the exorcist, everyone has only one goal left, that is to save their lives and hide as much as possible
, to avoid being found and killed by the powerful female locust.
As for escaping the castle?
You don't have to think about it anymore, the female locust has already sealed off the entire castle. Even if you build the ladder, the ending will still be bounced back to where it was.
Faced with a standard plot character like Richard, Zhao Ping, who has always been very eloquent, decisively chose to lie. He took advantage of Richard's complete ignorance of supernatural issues and made up random lies, making up a half-truth as a cause-and-effect explanation.
Not to mention, under Zhao Ping's reasonable-sounding explanation, Richard finally chose to believe it, then put down his guard and started to think about it, and then took back the pistol, but...
It is true that the misunderstanding between the two parties has been resolved, and Richard basically believed Zhao Ping's various explanations. Unfortunately, when Richard later mentioned the issue of how to escape, Zhao Ping remained silent and shook his head slightly, obviously helpless that he had no countermeasures.
appearance.
After that, the two parties hid in the room in silence until 10 minutes passed quietly, until the time entered 3:20 in the morning.
Next, through the extremely unclear dark environment, the next moment after looking at the time on his watch, Zhao Ping suddenly moved and took out his flashlight to observe the room without warning, which led to the conversation between the two.
"...But the problem is that they are not ordinary bats, but transformed from female locusts. Oh my god, there are hundreds of bats! They are flying everywhere in the castle right now. I don't want to listen to nonsense now, I just want to escape.
Go and leave this castle occupied by mongooses as soon as possible!"
At this moment, listening to Richard's frightened and impatient response, and looking at the other party's expression of fear that had turned pale for a long time, as if something suddenly occurred to him, Zhao Ping narrowed his eyes slightly for some reason, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
A strange light that is difficult to detect.
No one knew that the man with glasses was trying to show his strange look, but in reality Zhao Ping still responded immediately. In fact, as soon as Richard finished speaking, Zhao Ping sighed and echoed: "Not only do you want to escape from the castle,
Why don't my companions and I want to leave here as soon as possible? But..."
"There's nothing we can do about it, the locusts are too powerful. Even though the mummy locust that appeared during the day has never appeared since the night, it's a pity that the purple-haired female locust alone is enough to kill us all."
"No way? You say there is no way?"
Seeing the bespectacled man shaking his head and sighing, as expected, Richard, who was already deep in fear, immediately became anxious and hurriedly turned around to retort in astonishment: "How can there be nothing we can do? Aren't you professional exorcists? If you don't have certain means,
, the government will not hire you, well, to say the least, even if you take
There is nothing you can do about it, but you should have a way to protect yourself, right? You don’t need to hold on for too long, as long as you can survive tonight, because the morning is the time to report the situation in the castle to the government routinely. If you don’t receive a call in the morning, you will
The government will definitely send someone to the castle to check, and we will be rescued by then!"
In order to increase hope for the other party as much as possible, so that these exorcists can help him survive, Richard hurriedly explained the truth, and even the reporting process that had been kept secret was revealed directly. Yes, it was just as Richard said just now
, because there are too many collections in the castle, the security guard has to report the situation to the government at a fixed time every day. Once he does not call, it is equivalent to the government knowing that the signal is out of order, and will definitely send someone.
Come and check it out, and it will be equivalent to receiving outside help.
"Oh? You said it won't take long for the outside world to come to the rescue?" After listening to the man's explanation of the facts, Zhao Ping asked back, and Richard nodded affirmatively and reiterated: "Yes, unless people from the government collectively get sick.
Forgetfulness certificate, otherwise I am sure that the government will send someone to the castle soon, at least noon."
(It's a pity, I think the government will 100% suffer from amnesia.)
The above is the answer that Zhao Ping instinctively came up with after listening to Richard's explanation. There is no doubt that he understands the curse. Not only does he know how to calculate the curse, but he also understands the omnipotence of the curse! In other words, as long as it is caused by the curse,
The constructed mission, Curse, will be able to be perfectly controlled, and no situation will occur beyond the setting of Curse. Just like the mission at hand, Curse
It is stipulated that the executor must stay in the castle for three days, so it is absolutely impossible for the executor to escape from the castle within three days, and the outside world will not interfere with the castle. What does this mean? Very simply, it means that Richard is destined to be disappointed
Well, even if the security guards and the government have established communication rules in advance, under the influence of the omnipotent curse, the government will inevitably forget about it and forget about the castle, at least
During the three days stipulated in the mission, the outside world will not be able to influence the castle. Not only will the government forget the castle, it is estimated that the entire world will forget this medieval castle named Chris. So it is natural that after listening to Richard’s full words
After the hopeful answer, Zhao Ping did not show an excited expression immediately. Instead, he still maintained a complex expression on his eyebrows. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that through just
Just after the conversation, he already understood the other party's purpose and figured out Richard's overall intention and plan. The purpose was very simple, that is, Richard did not want to die. He hoped to hold on as long as possible before outside rescue arrived. As for how
Persistence? The answer is definitely to rely on the exorcists, that is, to rely on Zhao Ping and this group of executors who have certain means to save their lives. No matter what, they must last longer.
In fact, it's not surprising that Richard had this idea. After all, Zhao Ping had told him his identity as an exorcist in advance. Even if he couldn't defeat the female slug, the exorcist was far stronger than him who was interested in supernatural beings just to save his life.
Ordinary people don't understand, but as long as the man with glasses tries his best to persevere, the outside world will come to rescue him before long, and everyone will have hope of survival by escaping from the castle.
Therefore, the complex expression only lasted for a moment. After a few seconds, Zhao Ping's expression changed, and he deliberately showed an excited look even though he knew in his heart that it was impossible to get outside rescue. It was like a prisoner who had been sentenced to death and was going to die sooner or later suddenly found out.
He looked excited as if he had a chance to escape from prison. The result was certain. Seeing that the man with glasses was hopeful, Richard took a moment.
He breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was really afraid that this group of exorcists would give up hope or even commit suicide in despair when they found that the castle was sealed and could never escape. If this was the case, they would lose the protection of the exorcists.
He is definitely doomed, let alone holding on until rescue comes during the day, he may not even be able to survive tonight.
"It seems that there is still some hope. Well, in that case, then I will try and persist. If I am lucky enough, I may be able to persist until the rescue that Mr. Richard said comes."
After saying the words full of hope, Zhao Ping definitely nodded. However, before he finished speaking, before Richard could nod to answer, Zhao Ping made a move and took the initiative to walk in front of Richard, and then stretched out his right hand towards Richard.
The man said: "Whether we can hold on until rescue arrives depends on the cooperation of you and me."
It is often said that acts of kindness will often bring about equal kindness. This statement is true. Seeing the man with glasses take the initiative to express his attitude, Richard, who had already regarded the man as his savior, did not dare to ask for help. He stretched out his right hand at the same time.
Then, the two reached a consensus on cooperation, and their hands held each other tightly.
During the handshake, Richard's eyebrows were solemn, and Zhao Ping was equally solemn, but...
Perhaps it was due to the reflection of the flashlight or the perspective of the environment. During the handshake, Zhao Ping's pupils flickered slightly, and there was an indescribable and different aura.
"By the way, Mr. Zhao, what should we do next? The female locust has transformed into hundreds of bats and wandered around the castle. Although it seems safe to stay here, she has been feeling panicked for the past few hours.
I feel like this is not the answer in the long run.”
"If there really is a God in the world, then I will definitely go to church and ask him why he did this to me, Falk!"
Out of the soldier's unique intuitive awareness of danger, as soon as the handshake ended, Richard went straight to the topic and asked Zhao Ping again about the crisis at hand. At the end, he cursed God, whom he had no doubts about in the past. In essence, asking God was just
As a side note, even if he wants to go to church, he still has to wait until he is alive
He was talking about leaving, so the appendix at the end of his words was just a secondary point. The point was that he wanted to get the answer from the exorcist in front of him who was very knowledgeable about supernatural beings. He wanted to know roughly how long he could hide in the room. If it was safe, then he
Naturally, I will continue to stay, but if it is not safe...
So, what should we do next? How can we stay as far away from danger as possible or even avoid being discovered by the group of bats that represent death?
Richard is worthy of being a soldier who has been on the battlefield. Even though he has been deeply in fear and unable to extricate himself, he is not panicked and does not just worry about fear like other security guards. Instead, he maintains calmness and rationality, and always thinks hard to survive.
His mental strength is basically not inferior to that of the executor.
Seeing that Richard was not panicked from beginning to end, Zhao Ping was a little surprised. Of course, an accident is an accident. In reality, he always has to find a way to explain it, and he has to say it anyway, so it is natural.
As early as during Richard's questioning, Zhao Ping was already thinking about lies and planned to continue using lies to prevaricate the other party. As expected, as a
The sharp-minded elite lawyer only pondered for a few seconds before Zhao Ping elaborated: "I said before that the two oysters hidden in the castle are extremely abnormal, and they belong to two undead spirits from hell, especially the purple-haired one."
Female locust, female locust is so powerful that nothing can harm it, so I think..."
Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.
Yes, just when the man with glasses was about to repeat his old tricks and try to deal with Richard with half-truths and half-false lies again, he stopped talking and just froze for an instant with a tremble of his body. Except for Zhao Ping, who was stunned.
, Richard, who had frowned and listened carefully just now, was also trembling and stunned at the same time. The reason why the two of them were silent was the voice, a series of sad and unwilling roars:
"Wow, wow, wow, wow!"
The roar came from far to near, basically penetrating the door and hitting the eardrums without any warning. No, no, not only was there a shrill roar, but there was also a roar, bursts of explosions and roars that were louder than the roar!
Explode! Boom!
At the same time, the scene shifted, and the field of vision extended outward after passing through the room where Zhao Ping was located, and continued to extend until it passed through the corridor and came to the hall. As far as the eye could see, something had changed on the scene, and a scene was being staged that was so terrifying that it was unbelievable.
Horrifying images to imagine:
Bump, bang, bang, grunt...
"Ah, oops, ugh!"
Accompanied by a series of painful wails and crashing sounds, He Fei rolled down. He unexpectedly rolled down the stairs connecting to the second floor in one breath. Although his body was in pain and bruised, he didn't care about it at all. In order to speed up his descent,
He rolled down the stairs at such a high speed that he rushed to the first floor below. What was even more terrifying was...
While He Fei was rolling, fire burst out from above and roared. Hot fireballs followed and crashed down, and then roared and exploded frequently behind the young man!
Boom! Boom, boom!
