Night Owl is not a good person, he is a member of the evil Batman camp, and he has always been attracted by Bruce.
But his identity is that of a policeman. Logically speaking, it is unlikely that the American police would arrive at the scene so early. His appearance so early means that he has ulterior motives.
Schiller is not sure whether Night Owl knew that Bruce was also in the game when he was making up the background story. If he knew, he would definitely find a way to make up a background story for himself that is closer to Bruce. Then he would naturally stand by Bruce.
side.
But the identity of the police is very important, because many files can only be found at the police station, and the police naturally have the right to ask questions. To find out what is going on in the village, it is easiest to use the identity of a law enforcement officer to investigate directly.
.
But if Night Owl is also a criminal policeman and his purpose is to silence them, he will definitely cause huge trouble for them.
Ye Xiao is a pure disciple control, and Bruce has the advantage in this aspect. Schiller knows that he is not very good at attracting other people's attention now, and it will be difficult to win over Ye Xiao.
In this case, he had to prepare for the worst, that is, Batman in the main universe with the highest force value would be killed on the spot, and he and the Pale Knight would stand on the same front to deal with the remaining three people.
Don't ask why Schiller joined without defeating him. As long as the opposing camp has greed, it is impossible for him to join, because greed will not let go of every Schiller equally.
Thinking of this, Schiller stood up and said: "Well, everyone who can stand up will go."
Everyone immediately turned to look at him, and Schiller said: "Except for Mr. Hunter, no one else was seriously injured. We are all gone, so there is no value in attacking here."
"You want to give up on him?" The Pale Knight frowned and looked at Schiller.
"Professional doctors have already given the answer." Schiller said: "He is hopeless. It is very irrational to slow down the pace of our investigation for the sake of a dying person."
"I don't agree." The Pale Knight said, "Since you can heal our spirits, there must be a way to heal our bodies. It's too early to give up now."
"I don't agree either." Greedy said: "Mr. Hunter was so seriously injured to cover our retreat. For humanitarian reasons, we cannot just leave him here."
Schiller doesn't even know who the villain is now, so why does it seem like he is the cold and ruthless one?
"Then you can take him with you," Schiller said, "and then pray that the prowler doesn't possess him and won't bite your neck off the moment he turns into a corpse."
"I'll stay and take care of him." Ye Xiao said: "The two of us have the most serious injuries among everyone. If we stay here to rest, maybe the situation will be alleviated a lot, and if we are attacked, your losses will not be much."
It’s too big.”
Everyone was silent. There seemed to be no other solution. Batman, who was already dead, and Night Owl, who had lost half of his arm, were the least valuable among them all. They had almost no fighting power, even if something happened.
Unexpectedly, it is not a weakening for the team.
"Now is not a good time for you to show your kindness, young master." Schiller looked at Greedy and said, "If you really want to do something, then go take a portrait of the two of them."
After saying that, Schiller turned and walked toward the door. Greedy showed an angry expression and threw half of the bread aside, as if he had completely lost his appetite.
Everyone except Nite Owl followed Schiller out one after another, Greedy walked last, and soon, only Nite Owl and Main Universe Batman were left in the small room.
Schiller first went to the second floor. After searching around the room where Jeff was staying, he found nothing.
Then he went to the third floor and came to the room with the bear trap. He squatted down and untied the bear trap and carried it in his hand. He returned to the first floor and placed it at the stairwell of the first floor. He explained.
"In case the Prowler really possesses Mr. Hunter and controls his body to leave the room after his death, the sound of the bear trap can remind us and also delay time."
"Do you think he will come to us?" The pale knight's brows never widened. He always felt that Schiller was a little strange.
"The purpose of the monster is to kill people. Rather than leaving the lighthouse and going to the village, it would be faster to block us upstairs." Schiller said as he walked up the stairs, and said: "Killing us will not affect him.
I’ll go back to the village and kill people later.”
The Pale Knight reluctantly accepted this statement. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Do you want to send someone to guard downstairs?"
"Which one of you do you think can beat the Prowler?"
Schiller's retort stunned the Pale Knight, but what he said was indeed very reasonable. None of the remaining people could be beaten. With the cooperation of others, it might be okay to deal with a corpse, but alone
It’s better not to think about fighting alone.
"Then you can send two people." Greedy said: "Two people go downstairs to guard, and three people go up to explore. This is just right."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a black hole of gun muzzle pressed against his forehead. Schiller, who was standing on the upper stairs, turned around, pointed the shotgun at his forehead from top to bottom and said: "What's next?"
You'd better keep your mouth shut while you explore."
Greedy said sarcastically: "Aren't you afraid that monsters will possess me? If you attack me with firearms, you will be cursed?"
"I am the clergyman. Madeleine's conclusion is wrong. Attacking monsters with firearms will not cause you to be cursed."
Schiller has figured everything out at this time. Among all the settings, the only ones he can trust are the rules told to him by the Beyonder himself and the opening animation. Everything else that appears in the game may be someone else's attempt to weaken it.
Settings made by others.
For example, you cannot use firearms to attack monsters. This is just Madeleine's research. No one knows what Madeleine's status is in academia. She is most likely just a character in a backstory casually made up by a player.
In addition to using her to complete their origin story, they also wanted to use her mouth to express the rules they set themselves.
The rule that you cannot attack monsters with firearms is obviously linked to the Prowler's possession rules.
It is known that if you shoot a monster with a gun, you will be cursed. The prowler will be possessed, but not necessarily who it is. This will cause people with guns to not dare to shoot their companions. If they hit the prowler, they will not be able to shoot.
Cursed?
Everyone starts with different initial props, but as long as you watch the opening credits, you can definitely expect that someone will have a gun. Again, shooting monsters with a gun may not cause any harm, but threatening people can be accurate.
Therefore, in order to even out the gap between themselves and gun owners, there will definitely be people who will try to find ways to minimize the threat of the gun as a prop.

They can't make the gun owner unable to fire a gun through a background story, but they can add settings out of thin air to make the gun owner have concerns.
In this way, it will be difficult to directly rely on guns to gain the greatest say in the team, while those without guns can more smoothly compete for say.
When making up the background story, although I don’t know whether others have guns, I can infer whether I own a gun based on my identity. For professions like painters and photographers, the probability of having a gun is very low.
Therefore, it is set that the person who attacks monsters with firearms will be cursed, must be a person without a gun.
Although the scope is still very large, Schiller thinks it was greed.
Fortunately, although Arrogance didn't make up a good background story for himself, his profession was his biggest advantage, and the clergy he taught in the field of monsters were the authority.
If he said it's okay to use firearms, then it's okay. If other people want to refute, they must give examples, but their identity and profession are destined to be unable to give examples. If a photographer understands monsters better than the priest, this persona will collapse.
Already?
Schiller realized that his advantage was not any backstory he had made up before, but what he said now. No one with the professional knowledge or professional background to refute what he said would be silenced if he tried to speak.
After thinking about this, Schiller's steps became a little lighter. He put away his gun and turned upstairs. He went to the third floor and took a look at the place where the door number fell. Through the light coming from the window, he saw the ceiling.
There seems to be traces of glue on it.
So the door number was not thrown here by some supernatural power, but was stuck to the ceiling and fell down again.
If this was a trap set up by greed, just to frame Naiya, he must have a reason for someone to do this in the background story.
The hunting dog on the first floor, the bear trap in the room, and the tripwire mechanism in the warehouse should all be traps left here by the lighthouse keeper. He may want to rely on these traps to deal with intruders.
Then the door number may also be a trap, but I haven't seen any lethality so far. Could it be a curse or something?
Wait a moment, Schiller suddenly thought, the world view of the hotel and the world view of the game they are in now should be the same, right?
There are also various anomalies and monsters in the hotel, and these monsters also have various restrictions. Although it was finally proved to be Naia's conspiracy, the transcendent can also directly use the world view of that universe.
, he dares to directly copy and paste the arrogant skills, what else can he not dare to do?
If this is true, it would be equivalent to the entire world now being a large hotel, except that the hotel rooms with various abnormal phenomena have become cities or villages.
If the world view was copied by a transcendent, he would not copy it mechanically, but would find a reasonable reason to explain how such strange situations arise.
Could he be setting the hotel up to be the source of the spread of weirdness?
If that weird hotel had truly existed in the history of this world, then the 1913 house number was not something thrown across the world, but an antique from this world that just appeared in the lighthouse for some reason.
Schiller took out the house number from his arms and looked at it carefully, but found no clues.
And if the hotel's rules still apply here, then can he re-enter the mysterious room 1913 as long as he nails the door number at the designated location?
What would be in the room? How does that relate to the current state of the world?
