After closing the door on the ceiling of the "kitchen", Lu Li grasped the crowbar that might affect his safety on this ship, and returned to the previous corridor along the direction of the sea breeze.
Without any additional interruptions, Lu Li successfully reached the end of the corridor and saw a staircase leading to the upper floor.
But on the upper floor of the stairs, a strange figure stood guard, with a Viking-like horn helmet on its head.
Lu Li could not describe the shape of this strange shadow. It was changing all the time. Only the position of the horned helmet remained unchanged.
After a slight pause, Lu Li stepped onto the first step. He lowered his head slightly, lowered his eyes, and used his peripheral vision to pay attention to the guard at the top of the stairs.
After Lu Li stepped onto the steps, the bullhorn figure turned its helmet, seemingly turning its eyes in Lu Li's direction.
He continued to move.
After walking up more than a dozen steps, Lu Li arrived at the middle level of the stairs.
The ever-changing form of the bullhorn shadow suddenly undergoes a fixed change. Its body begins to elongate, its limbs extend from the elongated torso, and it metamorphoses into a burly black shadow with a horned helmet on its head.
It seems to be some kind of warning and caution.
Can't go to the previous level...
Lu Li's direction changed. He turned to the right and walked up a few more steps under the gaze of the bull-horned monster. He came to the edge, raised the crowbar, and smashed down the rivets on a wooden plank on the stairs.
The rivets were smashed into the wooden planks and restored to their original state. As if he came here for this, Lu Li turned around and walked downwards. A quick glance behind his head made Lu Li notice that the space on the stairs was still the cabin.
Gululu...
But when Lu Li turned around, the minotaur figure at the top of the stairs muttered vaguely.
Lu Li did not stop immediately, and the muttering that continued to sound began to become urgent and dissatisfied.
Lu Li stopped and looked back at the top of the stairs.
A tentacle emerged from the Minotaur's chest. It continued to extend and landed on the steps below. The tentacle turned into an arrow shape and pointed at the wooden board of the stairs.
There seems to be an equally raised rivet there.
Lu Li, who understood the Minotaur's intention, returned to the stairs and used a crowbar to smash off the protruding rivet.
Lu Li lowered his head. From a position he couldn't see, several tentacles sprouted from the Minotaur's chest and spread slowly downward...
Bang!
With the last blow, the nails were completely smashed into the wooden board. Lu Li raised his head and saw several tentacles of the Minotaur's figure scattered and pointing to various corners of the stairs, turning into arrows.
"..."
Lu Li remained silent and continued to act as a maintenance worker to help the Minotaur Shadow, repairing the wooden boards that might scratch its body.
Bang!
After the last wooden board struck the final blow, Lu Li raised his head and saw that the Minotaur's tentacles had changed positions again.
This time the board it pointed at had only nail holes but no nails.
Lu Li straightened up and stared at the Minotaur shadow. Before he could express anything with his movements, the Minotaur shadow "vomited" several nails from its chest and held them in front of Lu Li with its tentacles.
Bring your own materials for Minotaur Shadow.
The few nails handed to Lu Li were mixed with a silver necklace. I don't know if it was the reward for this job or the minotaur shadow.
Lu Li calmly picked up all the nails including the necklace, put the necklace away, and hammered the nails into where they should be.
After finishing everything, Lu Li raised his head again, and the bull-horned monster on the stairs returned to its ever-changing appearance.
Lu Li thought he might be qualified to go to the upper cabin, but as he approached the middle of the stairs, the bullhorn shadow transformed into a burly black shadow again.
This road is blocked.
As the Minotaur shadow watched, Lu Li randomly knocked on the wooden board a few times with the crowbar, turned around and walked down the stairs back to the corridor.
After walking more than ten meters, Lu Li stopped. He took out the silver necklace he got from the Minotaur Shadow.
The black substance covering it makes it almost impossible to see the original color, and you can only barely tell that it is a female style.
Lu Li connected the existing clues together. This did not allow him to obtain new clues, but he had new ideas.
Lu Li returned the same way, passed the octopus shadow's room, and came to the original morgue.
Pushing open the carved wooden door, the place was still as it was when Lu Li left.
Avoiding a large pool of sticky black material on the ground, Lu Li came to the rotten wooden box that he had ignored before, raised the crowbar and smashed it down.
The damp wooden board that had been soaked for a long time had gained some toughness. Even with a crowbar, it took Lu Li two minutes to carve out a fist-sized hole in it.
After observing around the breach, Lu Li reached into the wooden box. After ten seconds, he reached out of the wooden box with a key in his fingers.
This is a small brass key, which is more suitable for opening some doors than locks.
Lu Li picked up the lock next to the door and compared it. Sure enough, the two did not match.
The key has other uses - or no use at all.
So if you follow the idea of solving secret room puzzles, the door to the morgue is opened by other props.
Lu Li looked at the morgues around him.
…
A few minutes later, all the unlocked morgue cabinets in the morgue were opened. Most of them were empty, and there were only a few cabinets filled with black substances.
Counting the dentures that Lu Li discovered at the beginning, there were only four morgues containing items. The remaining three morgues contained a pair of shoes, a lock of hair, and a seal of unknown purpose.
Compared with these things, the crowbar is more related to the door.
bite!
bite!
bite!
The rapid ringing of the bell suddenly echoed from the dark depths of the corridor outside the door.
The ringing of the bell lasted for a few seconds and stopped ringing. On both sides of the corridor, in the closed doors, various strange and grotesque dark silhouettes came out of the doors and moved in the same direction.
The open gap in the carved wooden door gradually closed.
Observing the strange figures passing by outside the door, Lu Li felt like joining them and following them.
Without taking these unexplained relics in the morgue, Lu Li grasped the crowbar, opened the door and walked out of the room, blending into the noisy and chaotic corridor.
Various strange muttering sounds reached his ears from all over his body. Lu Li followed the moving team without squinting his eyes.
He looked small and special among these strange figures.
Lu Li saw a strange octopus figure in the team. It was communicating with the strange figure that stretched out its two legs under a wine barrel next to him. He also saw the "chefs" jumping out of the second door in the corner corridor.
.
The alien figures throughout the cabin seemed to have left their respective rooms and joined the "parade".
Just as Lu Li expected, the team moved forward, stepped onto the unguarded stairs, and arrived at the second cabin.
Lu Li moved silently from the center of the team to the edge, and then saw that on the dark wall, at regular intervals, there were vertical pupil eyes the size of a hand, like the eyes of a frog, staring at all the monsters in the team.
