Chapter 16 The Past of the Castle

Everyone had nothing to do, so they began to allocate rooms. Wang Siyi, as the only lady, naturally had a small room to herself. And because no one wanted to live in the same room as Baihecheng, Baihecheng also lived in a separate room.

So Liu Xing, Wang Qi, and Chen Ling made do in the big room. However, as long as nothing unexpected happened, Liu Xing and others would not spend the night in the castle, because as long as the main mission was completed, Liu Xing and others would

People will try their best to leave the castle and the small town of Ains.

After allocating the room, Wang Siyi, who had nothing to do, went to his room to rest alone. Baihe City, under the strong request of Liu Xing and Chen Ling, as well as Wang Qi's persuasion (physics), had a look on his face.

Unhappy, he went back to his room.

This large guest room in the castle is more than fifty square meters, decorated with some simple furniture and two large beds. You can see the back garden of the castle from the window of this room.

Of course, it is not so much a back garden as it is a somewhat dilapidated courtyard. It is overgrown with weeds and it can be seen that this place has not been taken care of for a long time.

But think about it, since Liu Xing entered the castle, he only saw old Wayne, the butler, and did not see any other servants in the castle. It seems that the lord of the castle is either worried about being discovered because of the crowd.

My secret is that my financial capacity is limited, so I didn’t hire more servants.

Liu Xing thinks the latter is more likely, because judging from the layout of this room, for the British aristocrats who like to enjoy themselves and save face, this room is a bit too shabby and expensive, and it even has a long back garden.

Time has not been taken care of, and there is only one old butler in the entire castle. This shows that the lord of this castle has already experienced an economic crisis.

Liu Xing touched his chin and began to think about a question, would he have a chance to make a fuss about it?

If Liu Xing's previous guess is correct, the lord of the castle is likely to be a human with knowledge of the Cthulhu mythology. He may know some spells or summon some relatively low-level mythical creatures. However, as long as the SAN value is not low,

If it reaches single digits, then Liu Xing feels that he can still use his persuasion skills on the lord of the castle, such as pretending that he is a rich man and providing financial assistance to the lord of the castle.

This seems like a good idea.

"Player, old Chinese medicine doctor, because you have been observing the back garden of the castle for a long time, you suddenly feel like there is something blurry in front of your eyes, as if there is something hidden deep in the grass. Please pass an inspiration check." Suddenly, the voice of kp004 was in Liu Xing's ear.

Rings.

Liu Xing frowned. He didn't expect that he would actually trigger the inspiration check. You must know that in a situation like this, as long as the inspiration check is passed, it is very likely that you will see some mythical creatures or supernatural phenomena, which will eventually cause the SAN value to decrease.

This can be regarded as the test that players least want to pass when running a Cthulhu group.

However, Liu Xing’s inspiration level is as high as 90, making it difficult to pass the test.

Therefore, Liu Xing could only say helplessly: "KP, start the inspiration test."

Inspiration, 95/90, failure. (The author swears on his personality that the point he rolled was 95, and he definitely did not control the dice)

...

Liu Xing and kp004 fell into silence at the same time. They did not expect that the test with a 90% success rate would fail.

kp004 said helplessly: "I didn't expect that you were so lucky that this could fail. But since the result is failure, you didn't find anything. You just thought you were dazzled just now."

Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was great that the inspiration did not succeed this time. Liu Xing was already prepared to lose SAN points just now.

But having said that, Liu Xing found that Wang Qi and Chen Ling did not look at him, as if they didn't know that Liu Xing had just passed an inspiration test.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing contacted kp004 and said, "kp, did you not inform other players of the result of the inspiration test just now?"

kp004 was probably depressed because of the failure of inspiration just now, so he did not reply to Liu Xing immediately, "Ah, oh, that's it. Players can make overt and secret bets, and we KPs will let players do it according to the situation.

Hidden throwing, the progress and results of hidden throwing are only known to the player himself, and other players will not receive relevant messages and prompts. Of course, players can also choose to tell other players the news."

Liu Xing nodded silently and understood the meaning of kp004. This is equivalent to the player triggering a certain person's plot, so only the player who triggered the plot can make relevant tests and obtain various information about the plot.

Liu Xing felt that if he succeeded in the inspiration check just now, a side mission would most likely be triggered. He didn't know whether this was a blessing or a curse.

Of course, Liu Xing decided to tell his teammates the news and let them be careful. After all, losing SAN value is still a trivial matter, triggering some unnecessary plots, or attracting a mythical creature.

Not fun anymore.

But at this moment, a new test began.

Library utilization,70/70,success.

The library uses this skill, which is actually an information acquisition skill. It does not require players to actually use it in the library. Instead, when players check information through books, newspapers, the Internet, etc., this skill can be used to obtain information faster.

Intelligence, get more information.

Therefore, library utilization can be regarded as a very practical skill. Unfortunately, Liu Xing's interest skill points are not enough, so this skill is not highlighted.

Liu Xing estimated that this library skill should be used by Wang Siyi, because if Liu Xin remembered correctly, the reporter's professional skills include library utilization.

After a while, Wang Siyi walked into the room with a book, and Baihecheng, who had come after hearing the news, also walked in.

"I found this book in the room. I found that this book recorded various events that had happened in this castle. I also learned that the owner of the castle was the Raphael family." Wang Siyi wrote.

Put it on the table and said.

"The most important of them are the following three things. The first thing happened a thousand years ago. The founder of the castle, Raphael I, was a marquis. His fiefdom was in the town of Ains. He was choosing a site to build it.

When this castle was built, there had been worker casualties. The recorded number of deaths was thirteen, and the number of missing people was more than ten. Later, Raphael I discovered the devil under the foundation of the castle, and

Defeated the devil."

"The second thing happened about three hundred years ago. A group of secret societies that believed in demons appeared in the town of Ains. The lord of the castle at that time led his troops to destroy this secret society, and in ancient times

In the garden behind the castle, the statue of the evil god worshiped by this secret society was broken into pieces and buried in the soil."

"The third thing is that a hundred years ago, a hundred well-equipped English soldiers were temporarily stationed in this castle due to a heavy rain. As a result, after a rainy night, this group of English soldiers mysteriously disappeared

Missing, officials from Manchester came to question the then lord of the castle, but they returned without success because they could not find any evidence."

PS: Keep asking for all kinds of things, okay?
