"Heh...hehe..." Feng Bujue's mouth twitched. He put the magnet in his pocket near the hole and checked it, and found that the size was just right.
He tried to insert the piece of magnet, and only about a third of it was inserted, when he felt a strong magnetic force in the round hole, sucking the entire magnet in. The next second, the box opened.
Already...
It turns out that this small safe does not require a password at all. The lock on the front is just a cover-up. The real way to open it is to trigger a mechanism inside. 80% of this safe is just made of ordinary metal materials, but the small hole in the
Inside, a part is made of special, high-density magnetic ore, and contains a mechanical wedge. The only item that can unlock this mechanism is the magnet.
"You keep changing the rules of solving puzzles, right? It's kind of..." Although Feng Bujue was a little annoyed, he quickly calmed down. The big box outside was opened with a password, but it doesn't mean that the small box inside also needs to be opened.
Open it with a password. If he wants to blame it, he can only blame himself for falling into a trap due to his fixed mindset.
Feng Bujue took out the [cell door key to the underground 1st floor] from the small safe, then left Cell 6 and walked towards the stairs leading to the upper level.
After opening the black iron fence door, the key disappeared, and the system prompt also sounded at this moment: [The current mission is completed, the main mission has been updated]
[Explore the underground 2f and open the door to the upper level] This task was checked off, and then the next step instructions appeared: [Go to the ground 1f]
"Huh?" Feng Bujue felt a little strange when he saw this mission. Logically speaking, the mission should say something like "Explore the underground 1f and find a way to the surface", but in front of him it only said "Go to
"Ground 1f" is such a simple sentence, as if...
"Is it possible to go up directly?" Feng Bujue thought.
He held the long rusty iron bar (the iron bar had already returned to its dilapidated quality by this time) and walked cautiously along the corridor on the 1st floor underground. This floor was almost a mirror image of the design on the 2nd floor underground, not far from the stairs.
In the distance are six cells, three on each side. But the iron doors of the cells on this floor are different from those on the floor below. There is neither a food delivery port nor a small iron window, and there are no paint marks on the door.
The number. Except for the keyholes and door handles, these six iron doors are almost a piece of iron. The thickness is unknown, and it is impossible to detect the situation inside the house from outside the door.
Feng Bujue tried to see if the six doors could be opened one by one, but found that they were all locked. He listened close to the door panels and couldn't hear any movement. He thought to himself: "It's possible that the entire underground floor is filled with decorations."
It’s not very sexy, so that means…I’ll be back later, right…”
While he was thinking, he had arrived at the other end of the corridor, and an upward staircase appeared in front of him. Feng Bujue calculated the length of the corridor based on his own strides. He was sure that directly below this staircase, there should be
It's Cell Zero. However, his calculation doesn't seem to have much meaning other than that the lengths of the corridors on 1f and 2f underground are equal.
The steps in front of me are made of wood and look very old. There are still a lot of strange smells left on the steps. The source of those smells may be food spilled during transportation, excrement, or people being dragged up and down.
When the blood and body fluids left behind were mixed together, it turned into a smell that was not strong but was enough to make people sick.
Feng Bujue climbed up the stairs, turned back once, and met a wooden door. He reached out and grasped the door handle, and turned it carefully. The door opened smoothly.
Behind the door is the ground floor. Standing on the steps and looking out the door, you can see a room similar to a storage room. The walls are made of brick and wood, with many bulging sacks stacked around it, and there is also a wall on the side
They are round wooden wine barrels arranged in three rows.
The light in that room was worse than underground. The only light source was a kerosene lantern placed on a wine barrel. Naturally, Feng Bujue would not rush into the dark environment in front of him. He first lifted the iron bar in his hand.
He reached into the door and knocked lightly up, down, left, and right a few times to make sure there were no traps in front of him that relied on physical contact, and then he stepped through the door.
[The current mission is completed, the main mission has been updated] The system prompt sounds again, and a new mission appears: [Explore the ground 1f, find the six keys of red, yellow, blue, black, white, and gray, return to the underground 1f and open the six doors
iron gate】
Feng Bujue glanced at the mission and continued moving forward. The first thing he did was to get the kerosene lamp. Since he couldn't use a flashlight, it was obviously a top priority to get lighting equipment.
He had just walked forward more than three meters when suddenly... there was a bang, and the door behind him closed.
Feng Bujue turned around suddenly, but all he could see in his sight was the closed door and his own shadow on the wall. He listened carefully for another ten seconds, but there was only suffocating silence around him.
At this moment, he made a prompt decision, took out the Vajra Bell, and turned on the special effect of "Death Warning".
In the next five minutes, anything that is hostile to Feng Bujue and may threaten his life will cause the King Kong Bell to react.
However, after he turned on the special effects and waited for about twenty seconds, no ringtone came out.
"Hey... what is going on..." Feng Bujue thought: "There is no wind in this place, and it is even more impossible for this door to be equipped with a spring-loaded door hinge... How can it be closed without external force?
"
A normal person with a sense of fear would definitely have his actions affected to a certain extent in this state. But Feng Bujue is not such a person... For him, even if a sad and evil face suddenly appears behind the door.
Ghost faces will not have any impact on the fright value. He always only considers the threat to the survival value and ignores the existence of the fright value.
Therefore, as long as the Vajra Bell does not ring, he has nothing to worry about.
But he walked up quickly and came to the door. He stretched out his hand to open the door. Unexpectedly, he heard the system prompt: [This door has been blocked by some special power. He holds the six-color key.
Talents can open it.]
"Oh...it turns out the system is closed." Feng Bujue breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately understood the meaning of the prompt. The door was closed to prevent players from returning underground if they only found one or two keys.
This disrupts the progress of the game.
"Well... while the death warning is still going on, let's go out and explore the truth first." Feng Bujue thought of this, turned around to get the kerosene lamp, put the iron bar on the ground, and quickly headed towards the other door in this room.
Go.
Pushing the door open, there is a dark corridor outside. The light of the kerosene lamp can only spread to a limited distance. By the way, the note on this kerosene lamp reads: [Don't question how long it can stay on, it will go out when it's time.
will go out]
Different from the two underground floors, the ground floor is basically built of bricks and wood, with more rooms; the corridors have corners; there is furniture in the house; it looks like a private house.
"Did the mad scientist build a dungeon under his own house..." Feng Bujue thought: "Maybe only the six rooms on the second underground floor are used to detain people, and the first underground floor is some kind of laboratory.
?”
He held a kerosene lamp and walked sideways. In order to take advantage of the death warning, he did not conduct detailed exploration for the time being, but quickly passed through the corridor. Open the door of each room, lean in, take two steps, and then exit.
, go to the next room...
During this process, what impressed Feng Bujue the most was the smell on this floor. For some reason, the air here seemed to be worse than in those underground cells. It gave people the impression that... this room was built in a slaughterhouse and
It's right in the middle of the chemical plant, and the windows are open all year round.
Just like this, it took more than three minutes. Feng Bujue tried this in all the rooms on the first floor, and the Vajra Bell did not ring even once. Although this does not mean absolute safety, it at least shows that when the trigger is triggered,
Before the new flag, there was no danger just walking around the mansion.
After exploring all of this layer, there were two places that Feng Bujue failed to pass.
The first place is the stairs leading to the second floor. There is a lump of meat there. Yes, a lump of meat. It looks like a big meatball kneaded from the flesh and blood of many dead corpses. I don’t know what force makes these
Things were glued together to form a wall of flesh, sealing off the stairs.
Since the Vajra Bell never rang, when Feng Bujue walked near the lump of flesh, he approached it unscrupulously and poked it a few times with his fingers. At that time, the system voice prompt said: [The barrier controlled by the spell looks like corpse flesh.
accumulated]
The second place that cannot be passed is the door leaving this room. Keep walking along the corridor and you will arrive there soon. That door also looks like an ordinary wooden door. When Feng Bujue touched the door handle,
You will get a system prompt like this: [Cannot open]
These three words may be the most common prompt that players see when facing a door in all horror puzzle games. Even Feng Bujue has no interest in complaining about it.
"Ah... it's been an hour and a half since entering the script." When the death warning time ran out, Feng Bujue returned to the storage room connected to the underground. "It feels like the game is not even halfway through yet."
Well..." He said, already starting the search.
He spent five minutes searching the storage room, but found no useful items. There was only dust and cobwebs in every corner of the room, the sacks were filled with sand, and the rows of wine barrels against the wall were all empty.
Preliminary observation shows that there is no key in this storage room. Even if there is, it is hidden in a place that cannot be found under normal conditions. It requires the guidance of some clues to find it.
So, Feng Bujue returned to the corridor on the first floor with the kerosene lamp and walked towards the next room.
Next door is a study room, and there is a carpet on the floor of the study room. It is not an ordinary carpet. To put it more vividly...even the loom that made it would probably curse it and say that it was not its own product. Feng Bujue stepped on it.
When I was up there, I felt that this thing had turned into a plant. In the smelly, dark air, it degenerated into a lush and moist lichen, like moss spreading all over the ground...
There are two niches on the wall on the left after entering the door. The decorations placed in them are all gone. If there were flowers and plants that were once placed in them, they died in the dirty and dirty air;
If the icons placed inside were holy statues, then the saints would have been dragged out by demons of all sizes in the darkness, until they were dragged into some evil abyss under the house...
Feng Bujue walked to the window and opened the curtains. Through the glass, he could only see the thick darkness. Even if he held the kerosene lamp in front of the window, it would not help. Trying to open the window was obviously useless.
Smashing the glass with a pipe wrench will only numb your hand in the end.
He put his face close to the window edge and sniffed with his nose. Unfortunately, the air outside the window did not leak in at all. What he smelled was just a damp smell that belonged to this big house, something similar to the smell of oilcloth and rotten wood mixed together.
Musty smell.
"It seems that it is impossible to escape from the house." Feng Bujue muttered and came to the desk in the middle of the room.
The table was very messy, with a bunch of clutter scattered here and there. Feng Bujue picked up the objects one by one and looked at the attributes, but they were all garbage.
Only one drawer of the desk was unopened. The other drawers had been pulled out of the desk and fell to the ground. The papers in the drawer were scattered in the corners and under the table. An ink bottle that fell from nowhere also fell to the ground.
, the ink in the bottle had long since dried up, some nearby papers were stained with ink, and the carpet was splashed with a pool of explosive ink marks.
After Feng Bujue opened the only openable drawer, he found a magnifying glass inside. He laughed at that time: "Ha... it would be cool if there was a pipe or something."
Most people of the same age as him would think that this person is old-fashioned or half-hearted when they see others posing in this way. Only Feng Bujue firmly believes that holding a pipe in his mouth and a magnifying glass in his hand is very handsome. This may be because
It's just his romance.
Feng Bujue got even more excited after getting the magnifying glass. He held a kerosene lamp in one hand and a magnifying glass in the other. He turned and walked to the side of the study. On the wall of the study, there was a bookcase filled with books from top to bottom.
It is self-evident that Feng Bujue is tempted by this kind of prop.
This script has no time limit. If no one stops it, it is possible for Feng Bujue to stay in this room and read the books one by one. The only thing that can stop him is the connection time limit of the game cabin.
.When the real neural connection time exceeds the maximum time limit of the day, Feng Bujue in the script will be forced offline.
Fortunately, the system has done a great job in setting up. On this bookshelf, 99% of the books are not translated. Not only are they not translated, but the words are not even allowed to be read clearly by the players. The words in each book are not translated.
The words, including the title on the cover and the side, are all blurry.
This made Feng Bujue very unhappy, because he was also very interested in "decoding". Ever since he read the "Dancing Man" case in "Sherlock Holmes" when he was in elementary school, he had been addicted to it for at least half a year.
For a deciphering game related to letters. The words in this script are 70-80% similar to English. He originally wanted to decipher the language rules of this world with full confidence, but now he has to give up.
Of course, there are still 1% of books that have been translated by the system, which is a reminder for him to read...
""Advanced Alchemy"..." Feng Bujue looked at the book with a dark blue cover and read out the title: "Well... why do you want me to read this..." Before he finished speaking, a piece of paper appeared
The piece suddenly fell out from between the pages of the book.
Feng Bujue bent down to pick up the piece of paper and held it in front of the light to check. Only then did he realize that it was not a piece of paper, but a faded photo.
The paper of the photo has turned yellow, and it was originally a black and white photo, so the border and the middle look the same color. In the photo, there are two boys who look about ten years old. They are facing the camera side by side. The one on the left
The shorter child was holding the child on the right's head with his hand, both of them showing silly smiles. Even through the photos, Feng Bujue seemed to be able to appreciate their simplicity and happiness.
Feng Bujue looked at the photo for a few seconds, but unexpectedly something happened.
The next second, he actually re-entered the same state as when he was watching the opening CG, and an image appeared and played in front of his eyes. This image, like the photo, was also faded, but at least it was not completely black and white.
A piece of grass, a pasture, behind a sparse fence, some cows, horses and poultry were walking leisurely on the pasture, and a sheepdog ran past. After this harmonious scene, the camera panned horizontally, and a barn entered the picture, and behind the barn
Not far away, there is a two-story house.
Feng Bujue had no doubt that the room in the picture was the one he was in. Although it only took him more than three minutes to walk through the rooms on the first floor, in these few minutes of seemingly casual wandering, he
The amount of information collected is absolutely huge.
He estimated the area of the house, calculated the number of windows and doors, constructed the entire first floor plan structure in his mind, and deduced whether the locations of each room on the first floor overlapped with each room in the underground corridor. He even considered
Will there be a dark room between the walls...
In short, it is not an exaggeration to say that the floor plan of the first floor of this house was already in Feng Bujue's mind, so when he saw the outer outline of the big house in this video, he quickly made a judgment.
Laughter, the laughter of children.
The scene did not cut into the house as Feng Bujue expected, but continued to move sideways to a lawn nearby. There was a swing there, and a blond boy was sitting on the swing. There was a woman who should be his
His mother was helping him push the swing. The boy laughed cheerfully and heartily, and his mother's face was also filled with a happy smile.
Under a tree not far from the swing, there is another little boy sitting, a boy with brown hair. He is holding a book and looking at it with interest. It is a book with a dark blue cover...
...Obviously, it is the same book as "Advanced Alchemy" that Feng Bujue just found.
"Arthur, do you want to come and play for a while?" The mother turned her head and said to the boy sitting under the tree.
Feng Bujue didn't hear the answer from the child under the tree, because the image stopped here. He resumed the state of the game and was in the study room again.
"Hmm...could it be that..." Feng Bujue's first reaction after watching the CG was that he reached out and grabbed a handful of his hair. (To be continued. Mobile phone users please read it here.)
