119 Black Rain Villa (4300) (Thanks to Wandering 111 for the reward of 5,000 starting coins)
In the carriage, Kaxiu looked out through the translucent white gauze. The brown tree trunks moved quickly backwards, the scene became blurry, and traces of rain fell from the tree layer and the sky.
The surrounding environment did not change, and it remained unchanged for a long time. When Ka Xiu looked out the window again, the place where the carriage was located was no longer a mountain forest, but a stretch of winding hills. The hills on this side were very strange, and on the left side of the road was
Large tracts of white flowers, like a white carpet.
On the right side was a dark ground, as if it had been burned by fire. It was lifeless, with ashes rising from time to time.
Ka Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly. He was clearly sitting in the carriage but he didn't feel any fluctuation. It was as if the car was not moving at high speed. Instead, the whole world was coming towards him.
Driving through the sea of black and white flowers, Ka Xiu could see the slowly rotating dilapidated windmill in the distance. The windmill was getting closer and closer, and he seemed to be able to see a figure moving beside the windmill. The carriage approached again, and Ka Xiu finally saw the windmill clearly.
side situation.
There is a well made of gray and white bricks, and white statue-like people are constantly crawling out of it. They line up like puppets, moving step by step around the cylindrical windmill house. There are figures on the walls of the house.
The puppets hold the protruding wooden handle and spin around the house sluggishly. The windmill on the top is driven by human power.
The puppets circled around the house and came to the well again. They jumped down without any hesitation.
Not far from the windmill, a millstone for grinding beans was placed on the open ground, and a skinny white sheep pulled the millstone to rotate.
"..." Ka Xiu fell into an eerie silence. The scene in front of him seemed a bit weird, like a dream without logic.
Next, he saw more meaningless, weird and changeable scenes. The side of a pure black house was covered with palm-sized white crosses. Five people in black were lined up neatly, and they slowly opened their eyes.
The clothes revealed a fleshless white skeleton inside, with internal organs rotting and squirming inside. Half of the heart was drooping, beating thumpingly.
On the blank ground, a man wore a black hat that looked like horns. He held a shovel in his hand and kept shoveling the soil and digging downwards. A large herd of black cattle rotated counterclockwise around him.
In front of a big tree, two people who looked exactly the same were arguing. They were arguing, and suddenly another person who looked the same as them rushed out from behind the tree. Followed by a fourth, a fifth, and a sixth.
, and soon there were a dozen people with the same appearance next to the big tree. They no longer argued, but held hands and danced a weird and twisted dance around the big tree.
But the big tree was obviously drenched by the rain, but the crown of the tree burned as if it was on fire, with bursts of transparent fireworks.
Death, religion, occultism, mystery, soul flesh, consciousness, decay, dullness, ancient, gorgeous, crazy. These are all the adjectives that Cardiff can think of. In front of him is an irregular dream, with various elements mixed together.
It's inside.
What comes with it is a sense of trance that hits people's hearts.
For a moment, it was hard to tell whether it was a dream or reality.
Card repair subconsciously glanced at the upper right corner. A bronze ring sign was suspended in mid-air, and next to it was a very long row of time progress. The scale bar lasted about half a year.
"It's not a dream, it's reality.'
The confusion in Card Xiu's heart disappeared. He instantly became vigilant and instinctively felt that something was wrong. Looking around the car, Card Xiu's eyes gradually focused on the tulle. Could it be a problem with this thing? He stretched out his hand and lifted it up immediately.
Go up.
For a moment, a clear scene outside the carriage appeared in front of Cardiff. Under the burning tree in the distance, there was still a group of people with exactly the same appearance dancing around as before.
"It's not the gauze.
Ka Xiu glanced outside, only to find that all the dancing people had stopped moving. Their heads turned inch by inch, staring at him. Then, one of them suddenly shouted and ran over, and the others followed suit.
superior.
"what's the situation?'
The right hand that had originally lifted the gauze was immediately lowered.
In the distance, people running wildly froze in place, as if frozen on the ground. After a while, they returned to the big tree one after another, repeating the scene just now.
"This damn place
The carriage moved forward rapidly and suddenly stopped about half an hour later. Card Xiu carried the box and stepped down from the top.
With his shoes on the surface of the platform, he held an umbrella and looked around. There was a narrow road in front of him. Beyond the sparse trees planted on both sides of the road, he could see the gray wall of Black Rain Villa, and the surface of the wall was covered with green moss.
Looking up, the spire building in the villa stood tall in the rain. The tiles and wall tiles were wet and a little gloomy.
"finally reached."
Ka Xiu took a deep breath, then stepped onto the path. He walked along the road towards Black Rain Villa.
Entering the gate, a medieval-style villa comes into view. Dome-topped buildings, old gray-white streets, simple and thick walls, and never-ending rain.
He moved forward in the direction he remembered, and met many guys holding umbrellas along the way. They were probably Eye weirdos who came here to receive or submit tasks.
Not long after walking, we passed through a gray-white round arch.
Ka Xiu stood in front of the door of a building and knocked gently.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk
"who?'
"dusk."
"come in.'
Then the door opened and Kaxiu walked in.
In the hall, on the wall, brass-colored cast iron lamp stands were hung. The oil lamps burned with flames, releasing brightness.
In front of him is a tall and thin man, about 1.8 meters tall. He has freckles on his face and his facial features are relatively deep. On the back of his right hand, there is a light black shield logo branded on it. Next to the logo, there is a crossbow-like symbol.
pattern.
Card repairers who inherit Dusk's body have these two signs.
The first one represents the shield-level Stranger of Evil Night, which is the brand planted by Black Rain Villa. The second one is man-made, representing the crossbow flow in Stranger of Evil Night. Black Rain Villa is a program that will run automatically, so
The Nightmare is a different gear.
Gears naturally come in different sizes, categories, and uses.
According to the different abilities and skills chosen by the Eye monsters in the baptismal church, they are divided into many large and small power schools.
For example, the half-beast style: by injecting the blood of beasts, you can obtain the inhuman power of an enhanced version of the beast. When it explodes, it can turn into a half-human, half-beast monster, and its abilities in all aspects are greatly improved.
Mercury flow: sawing open the human skull and adding different colors of mysterious mercury inside to gain extraordinary power. It's a bit like telekinesis, similar to a super low-end and shrunk version of a mage.
Dark Flow: Connect the ability organs of dark creatures to yourself, thereby directly possessing the superpowers of dark creatures.
Crossbow Style: Uses bows, arrows, and mechanical crossbows for long-distance output. Most of the people in this style are slender and light-footed.
There are also poison flow, trap flow, medicine knocking flow, etc.
The one who joined before dusk was the Crossbow and Arrow stream, and the old Eye weirdos of the Crossbow and Arrow stream had given him a simple training.
It is a way to increase the survival rate of members.
There are not many people in the Crossbow and Arrow style, and they can only be considered small and medium-sized among many schools. However, they are quite united internally and will help new members if they can. They have a small stronghold in Black Rain Villa to supply people to the Crossbow and Arrow style.
Rest your feet.
"Twilight, your mission is complete?'
The tall and thin man asked as he walked.
"Yes." Ka Xiu responded.
"Well, it looks like it went well this time, congratulations.
The man said what he would say every time he met a returning member. The sentence structure might be a little different, but in the end it was all congratulations.
If the opponent is seriously injured, then he will be lucky if he survives the catastrophe. Congratulations. This can be regarded as some of the customs among the group of Eye Strangers. After all, every time the Eye Strangers go on a mission, their life and death are always unknown. Maybe there is something unknown.
God really can't come back, and men don't have to shout congratulations to each other.
Hearing congratulations means that at least you are still alive.
As long as you are alive, you are worthy of congratulations.
The two of them walked forward along the passage one after another. Occasionally, other members of the Crossbow and Arrow Flow would come up to say hello. There were quite a few female members among them. After all, the Crossbow and Arrow Flow needed flexible body support, and so did the other men.
The body is relatively slender. Basically no one is tall and strong.
Dusk is considered a relatively strong type among others.
Card Xiu walked all the way and felt that the scene in the building was similar to that of the Gray Seal Martial Arts Hall. Some empty rooms had been converted into indoor shooting ranges, and some old Eye weirdos were teaching new members how to use crossbows. Occasionally, there were voices and shooting sounds.
Come.
In the building, there are halls, canteens, and exercise rooms. Although the environment may be old-fashioned and simple, it has all the functions.
"Your room is here, here is the key.'
The man leading the way stood in front of a room door, and then handed the brass key to Cardiff. Cardiff looked up at the door.
On it is a metal nameplate affixed: 201.
"Thank you, Black Blade."
Ka Xiu took the key and thanked him.
"By the way, you should go to the baptismal church to hand over the mission later, right?" Black Blade turned around and said: "Remember not to upgrade anything else, it would be too wasteful. Directly upgrade our crossbow style's "Deng Tinda Gale"
Archery" is the most cost-effective."
Black Blade Yu warned again earnestly: "Remember not to improve your physical strength. There is a limit. Once you reach the limit, it will be useless to increase it. It is still no match for dark creatures. We will improve the physical fitness of "Deng Tingda's Wind Archery".
"It can also be strengthened in disguise, so don't waste mission rewards."
Don't want to improve your health? Card Xiu frowned.
Five minutes later, he roughly understood the relevant situation.
Limit, bottleneck. A word that Ka Xiu is not unfamiliar with. This is the limit of the human body, the obstacle from human breakthrough to inhuman. Listening to the meaning of the black blade, the physical fitness of the Eye monsters can only reach the limit of the human body at most, and
Can't break through?
There is no secret weapon in Black Rain Villa!?
Card Xiu knows that if human beings want to enhance the essence of life and evolve to the non-human level, secret martial arts are indispensable! Among them, special action potions similar to the breathing method in the Elephant Soul Secret Technique are the stepping stones to breaking through, and drugs such as Agni Fire Oil are auxiliary
Props.
Without these humans would indeed be stuck at their limits.
There is no way to climb any higher.
He can understand all of this, but why is it that no one in such a small group of Eye Strangers, with so many schools, has learned about secret martial arts? Card Xiu briefly recalled "Deng Tingda Storm Archery" and found out
This is a skill.
If the Secret Martial Arts is a majestic and righteous way, then "Deng Tingda's Wild Wind Archery" is like a heretic. There is indeed room for improvement, and the lethality is not weak. But compared to the Wind Elephant Secret Martial Arts practiced by Kaxiu,
It's worse by more than one step, by several grades.
He thought about it for a while, and inexplicably felt that the power possessed by the Eye Strangers was a bit deformed in various schools. He didn't know whether it developed like this naturally or for some reason.
"At dusk, there should be a small gathering in our crossbow sect at night. If you are interested, you can come and have a look." Black Blade patted Ka Xiu on the shoulder, then turned and left.
Ka Xiu stood there for a while and digested the information.
After a while, he opened the door and walked into the house. He simply put things away and tidied them up, then picked up the box and walked out.
Pushing open the door of the Crossbow Current stronghold, Card Xiu held up his umbrella and walked towards the baptismal church. He did not deliberately walk around and look around, because Black Rain Villa was not absolutely safe.
It's okay during the day, as the Night Strangers can visit the Baptistery, the Mission Hall, the Information Hall, the Bar, etc.
At night, everyone usually stays in their own houses. There will be some weird things on the streets of Black Rain Villa. Basically every month, an unlucky and unbelieving Eye Stranger will die tragically and become someone else the next day. alarm bell.
In addition, even during the day, there are a large number of streets in Black Rain Villa that are inaccessible. Some are inaccessible, and others are best not to enter. The reasons are the same as at night.
Card Xiu walked with an umbrella all the way. When he passed an intersection, he suddenly felt someone on the left looking at him. He looked out of the corner of his eye, next to the balcony of the second building on the street on the left.
A white shadow is looking over at the empty window.
Looking down, a warning sign stood at the intersection of the street.
It's a bit old, and there are still some faint blood stains on the surface. Maybe some unlucky guy who was smart ignored the warning and died here.
Ka Xiu ignored Bai Ying and just went his own way.
After walking a few steps forward, there was a circular intersection ahead. In the center of the intersection was a sculpture, which was mostly broken.
Only half of the leg is left standing on top of the cylinder.
Ka Xiu took a closer look and found that on the pillars under the feet of the statue, there were several lines of vague poetry carved on the stone.
Collapsed on the blue thorns, sobbing red fever.
you abandoned us
But we who have died will wrap you in gold robes so that in the next life you will become a gold-plated butterfly. You are fire, you are clothed in flames.
The flames of pain burn the living.
The ashes of the living are the love poems falling on the forehead of death.
There are more below, but they are so corroded that they cannot be seen clearly.
“This statue doesn’t belong to the owner of the villa, right?
This idea arose in Ka Xiu's mind, but he did not stop to study it. Instead, he quickly stepped forward and walked into the church about two hundred meters away on the right side of the street. The magnificent circular dome of the holy hall, the colorful Flower windows, religious murals.
After walking through the pointed niches and the gorgeous caisson, Kaxiu sat on the seat in front of the prayer table. He was the only one at the moment.
On the back of the right hand, a shield-shaped symbol flashes continuously
The tip of the shield began to rotate, seemingly guiding Ka Xiu in the direction. Ka Xiu stood up and walked all the way to a door.
Open it, and there is a simple secret room inside.
When you walk in, the door automatically closes behind you.
Kaxiu was about to look around when a low, hoarse voice suddenly came from his ears, without any emotion and with echoes.
"The one who marked it, offers the offering."
"It can be exchanged for...the power of soul secrets!"
