Following the hints given by the werewolf, the four of them quickly found the attic and climbed up the ladder outside the skylight.
The corridor outside the room has forks, and there may indeed be a way to the middle of the castle. But Brother Jue and the others did not explore it, because the hints given by the werewolf showed that: first, Little Red Riding Hood is very strong and unfriendly; second, Brother Jue and the others did not explore it.
, she may return to the castle at any time.
From a game point of view, the NPCs have told you such two clear messages. If you still take actions that contradict them, you will definitely face huge dangers and even trigger an instant death plot, so they decided not to stay.
The four people climbed up the ladder for more than five minutes. After passing through a fixed cloud, they saw the end of the ladder. There was a round black hole there, and the top of the ladder rested on that hole.
on the edge.
This hole was "drawn" in the sky, just like the holes in Warner cartoons that are drawn out of thin air and can be drilled into.
When you get closer, you can find that the size of this hole is actually not narrow, and anyone who is not too fat can pass through it.
Of course, the werewolf still can't get through. Due to the forward bend of the neck joint, the enlargement of the torso, and the posture when climbing the ladder, he is destined to be restricted to the space below the fifth floor.
"Hmm... it's a dark floor again." Feng Bujue took the lead in stepping onto the fifth floor and said while picking up the broom (when he climbed to the top of the stairs, he threw the broom up to explore the way).
Honghu, Qiufeng and the Chief followed closely behind and entered the fifth floor one after another.
"Now we already know that this building...if it can still be called a building, it has only seven floors in total." Honghu said: "That is to say...so far, four-sevenths of the progress of this script has been completed.
Bar."
"That's wrong." The chief accountant was a very patient and absolutely rational person. He responded: "As the saying goes...it takes half a mile to travel a hundred miles. The closer to the end of anything, the less impatient it is.
It's like injury time in a football match. If the whole team has the mentality of 'it will be over soon', the risk of conceding the ball will increase significantly."
"I agree with this." Feng Bujue said: "In many horror movies, it is the carelessness of the surviving characters in the last few minutes that leads to the total annihilation ending."
While talking, Brother Jue took out the flashlight again and turned on the light.
Feng Bujue did not ask for the flashlight he had given to Honghu before. After arriving on the fourth floor, the item was kept on him. So at this moment, Honghu also took out the flashlight in his pocket and turned it on.
The first thing the two of them did was the same. They first scanned the surrounding area with lights, and then immediately illuminated directly above.
The ceiling and floor of this floor have returned to the same state as those on the first floor. The floor is covered with floor tiles, and the height of the ceiling is only more than four meters. With only the light of the flashlight, it is not possible to see where the surrounding walls are for the time being.
This is also a pretty spacious space.
"How about... stick to the old rules, I'll go around alone first..." Before Feng Bujue finished speaking, a voice came from the darkness and interrupted him.
"Gentlemen." A young girl's voice sounded.
These words made the three players break into cold sweats, and their fright levels increased to more than 50%. Although Feng Bujue didn't feel scared, he also knew something was wrong. He thought to himself: Could it be that Little Red Riding Hood is here?
What are you waiting for?
Cha——
There was a soft sound, and a flame suddenly flashed in the darkness.
The fire was only the size of a grain of rice at first, but for some unknown reason, it rapidly expanded in a few seconds until it lit up the entire floor...
In everyone's sight, a short figure wearing a brown cloak appeared. Her cheeks were red, the clothes on her body looked shabby and thin, and her feet were bare.
At this moment, the little girl is holding a basket in her left hand, and... holding a burning match in her right hand.
"This doesn't seem to be Little Red Riding Hood, but..." Qiu Feng lowered his voice, trying to express his inference.
"Ah... I can tell." Feng Bujue interrupted. Judging from the looks in his, Honghu's and Chief's eyes, they naturally knew who this person was.
"Do you want to buy matches?" the little girl took a few steps towards the players and asked.
The four players looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
"Please buy a box of my matches," she repeated in a pleading tone.
At this time, Qiu Feng seemed to have thought of something. He stepped forward and took out the magic shoes in his pocket: "Can I trade these shoes with you for a box of matches?"
The little girl looked at the silver magic shoes handed over and hesitated for a moment: "Really? Sir, these shoes look worth a lot of money." It seemed that she was an honest child.
"It doesn't matter, I think this is a fair deal." Qiu Feng replied.
"Well, thank you, sir." the little girl replied.
At this moment, the match in her hand went out, and the entire floor returned to darkness.
Qiu Feng's eyes suddenly went dark, but fortunately his teammates quickly ran over. The flashlight illuminated the area around Qiu Feng, but the little girl was gone, and the shoes in Qiu Feng's hands were also missing.
"Over there." Feng Bujue still had sharp eyes and quickly discovered the clue.
Where the little girl first appeared, there was a box of matches. On the floor tile, there was a line of text that seemed to have been stained by smoke. It looked like it was in Latin, and the systematic translation was:
After reading it, the Controller said: "I see... the magic shoes are used here. I originally thought there would be a plot like 'Cinderella'."
Qiu Feng picked up the matches on the ground, "I also had an idea and only thought of it when I saw she had no shoes on."
"Loli and ankle control..." Feng Bujue touched his chin and said.
"Why can everything be distorted by you to the point of losing all integrity..." Qiu Feng said.
"Did you observe the environment during those few seconds when everything was bright?" Honghu brought the topic back on track.
The controller said: "Ah, look, the whole floor is empty, only that side..." He raised his arm and pointed in the direction: "There is a door."
"Hmm...the result is the same as my observation." Honghu responded: "Then...should we go directly there?"
"How about I strike a match and we take a look again?" Qiu Feng said, opening the matchbox.
Unexpectedly, there were only four matches in total...
"Ha! Needless to say, let's take one each." Feng Bujue glanced at the situation in the matchbox and said directly.
The other three people really didn't say anything. They all understood what it meant that the number of plot items of the same type was equal to the number of players.
Since this was the case, they would not waste their limited supplies to illuminate the surrounding environment. The four of them relied on the light of their flashlights and walked in the direction pointed by the chief, and soon arrived at the door.
.
"Elevator..." the controller said, looking at the metal door.
From the appearance, this door is exactly the same as the elevator door in the landing space. There is only one button next to the door, and the effect is self-evident.
Ding--
After Honghu pressed the button, the elevator doors opened to both sides.
The four people filed in, and after entering the interior, they discovered that there was nothing operable in the elevator.
After waiting for five or six seconds, the door closed automatically. Then, the elevator moved upward. I don’t know whether it was controlled by a remote control or operated automatically based on the internal load. Anyway, in this fantasy script, even if the elevator has autonomous consciousness, it will not
strangeness.
Not long after running, probably only one floor high, the elevator stopped and the door opened automatically.
The players safely entered the sixth floor area.
"Speaking of which... my initial inference about single and double floors seems to be completely wrong..." Honghu said as he walked out of the elevator.
"That's true, but..." Qiu Feng continued: "From the first floor to here, the difficulty seems to have been very low. Except for SCP-233, there are no particularly difficult puzzles, and the battle is a series of puzzles.
nothing."
"Not necessarily." Feng Bujue denied: "We may have encountered several 'instant death' traps, but none of them were triggered, so you think it is simple." He said: "Leave aside SCP, the previous one
The werewolf is obviously a monster that can lead to the destruction of the group; in addition... now we know that we should give the shoes to the little match girl. But... what if we made a wrong move at the time, such as giving the wrong thing?
, or did not respond to her plea before the match burned out..."
"It makes sense..." the controller responded: "In the seemingly harmless script process, there may be many hidden settings to kill the entire group instantly. Don't be careless next time..."
While the four of them were talking, they had all finished observing the entire sixth floor.
The setting of this floor is similar to that of the fourth floor, but the environment is quite different.
The ground on the sixth floor is a muddy swamp, and there are very limited places for people to stay. On the four murals, there are dark forests and heavy mountain shadows. The ceiling directly above is painted with a night sky, and there are only a few in the sky.
There are thin long clouds and many starlight embellishments.
A paper full moon hung on the corner between the ceiling and the two walls, and the cold moonlight filled the swamp.
The path leading to the top of this floor is relatively clear. It is on the wall directly opposite the elevator. There is a stone step that winds upward. The bottom five or six steps of the stone step extend from the wall.
, connected with this three-dimensional space.
On this level, the area that players can walk in is restricted, and there are not many choices. They can only walk on the relatively dry footholds and move towards the stone steps on the opposite wall.
"Watch your steps." Honghu, who was walking at the front, reminded: "We don't have any props now. If someone falls sideways into the middle of the swamp, it will be difficult to pull him out."
"Hey... did you hear that?" Feng Bujue said suddenly, and at the same time, he raised his head. (To be continued.
