Darkness shrouded the surroundings, and purple and dirty light particles flew, stirred, and squeezed, and finally turned into a double door, opening to Su Xiao.
Su Xiao opened his eyes, and the dim light above made him find himself in a cramped room with wooden bookshelves on both sides, and the distance in the middle was less than one meter wide.
Su Xiao stood up from the wooden chair. The room was only ten square meters in size, and more than four-fifths of it was occupied by the bookshelves on both sides, leaving only an aisle in the middle.
Opposite Su Xiao is the wooden door leaving the room. It is stained and has many vertical scratches, as if someone is counting the days by this.
The smell of decaying dust permeated the room, making people feel one part depressed and two parts fearful.
Looking to the side of the corridor, I saw a dried corpse hanging from the chandelier. The rope made of medical gauze had mostly broken under the corrosion of time, but it still completely strangled the corpse's neck.
Judging from the white robe worn by the dead body, this white robe is actually somewhat close to the Medicine Master robe of the Church of the Sun. The background color of the robe is black, which is the attire of doctors in the past. The Medicine Master robe of the Church of the Sun is based on
This evolved.
This doctor has been hanging for many years. A fine hemp rope is tied around his wrist. Judging from the exquisiteness, it was made by a woman. It is patient and delicate. It may have been given to him by his wife or daughter.
he.
At the other end of the braided rope, there is a wooden sign with many small words engraved on it, which reads:
'I have tried my best, but in the end I still can't defeat the beast in people's hearts. Before I am swallowed by the beast in my own heart, I will commit suicide like a coward, even if my faith, my wife, and my daughter are not.
Allow me to do this, but...this is what I have to do, forgive me.'
Su Xiao glanced at these roughly. His time now is precious. If he stays in the Nightmare Castle ward for 1 minute, his sanity will drop by 40 points. With his current sanity of 110, after 2 minutes and 30 seconds,
, he will transform into a beast in his mind, or in other words, he won't be able to hold on for that long. After his sanity value drops below 10 points, it will be difficult to maintain a calm mind.
The locations of Sinyas, Shenyin, and Morey are not yet clear. Team members cannot sense each other's location or track each other.
Su Xiao took out a head bucket from the storage space. This is the [Church Knight Head Bucket]. After wearing it, the upper limit of sanity is reduced by 50%, thus increasing the corresponding resistance.
After replacing the [Church Knight Head Bucket], Su Xiao's existing sanity value was not affected. The sanity value changed from 110/545 points to 110/215 points. He could feel the madness coming from around him.
The resistance is stronger, and the energy that can affect the mind invades his body much slower.
Su Xiao checked the prompts, and sure enough, the falling speed of reason per minute was reduced from 40 points to 20 points. This is the power of [Church Knight Head Bucket].
Exploring the castle ward is a high-intensity nightmare. Compared with [Church Knight Head Bucket], [Sun Head Bucket] is a bit weaker. If you include the [Tranquilizer] that can restore sanity, then [Church Knight Head Bucket]
Completely exploded [Sun Head Bucket].
Why does the Church of the Sun pursue a high upper limit of sanity now? It’s because the manufacturing method of [Tranquilizer] has been lost.
Under the condition of regaining consciousness with [sedatives], the difference in the time the two heads can stay in the ward is doubled.
After changing the bucket, Su Xiao has a lot more time. Within 5 minutes, he will be safe.
Ignoring the hanging body, Su Xiao used the green steel shadow energy to leave a mark on the wooden chair. This was his only exit from the nightmare castle ward. If he sat on it again, he could leave.
Su Xiao opened the door, and there was a dimly lit corridor outside. This corridor was curved as a whole. This type of corridor is the most deceptive. As you walk, surprises may appear in front of you.
What's even more deceptive is that Su Xiao's entire body has entered a nightmare, which has caused his range of perception to shrink sharply. Beyond the 4-meter range, it is worse than seeing clearly with the naked eye.
Su Xiao had no idea about this. He was a melee skill type, and his range of perception was not very large. There was a joke in Samsara Paradise, saying that a melee skill type got lost while walking one day, and then the perception system on the opposite side
After laughing loudly, the melee skill type finally found his way home by riding the perception system.
Su Xiao was walking in the curved corridor when the sound of a door opening came from the side. He quietly pulled out the saw blade in his right hand and tied the shadow thread to the small ring at the end of the handle.
Sias walked out of the room. He stood at the door. He did not explore immediately, but waited. If Shenyin was nearby and could help him restore his sanity, he would continue to explore. If the other party was not there, Sias
You will immediately return to the room and leave the nightmare ward through the "entrance".
"Where's Shenyin?"
"I don't know, the range of perception..."
"I……"
when!
A saw-edged knife sank deeply into the wall next to Shenyin's ear, and several long black hair appeared and fell down.
"You want to... impale me in the head?"
"Hahaha, are you stupid? You are talking behind a melee type. If he uses a long knife, he will definitely kill you with a sword technique."
Morey walked out of the room and laughed mercilessly. Shenyin recalled that indeed, he had just spoken towards Su Xiao's back.
"Shen Yin, next time you speak, please 'cough' first. If you suddenly make a sound, it's easy to accidentally hurt you."
Sias raised his hand, and black worms split from the tentacles surged from the ground around Shenyin, and finally sank into his arm.
"Okay, I remember."
Shenyin's attitude is serious. He has discovered that there are two gods among his teammates this time, gods who can kill him instantly when they meet him.
A translucent light group appeared. This light group was about the size of a fist. It flew toward Sinyas at a slow speed and sank into his body. This was Shenyin's ability to restore his sanity.
Sias didn't say anything, and pointed behind him, meaning to ask Shenyin to stand behind him.
"Get out of the way."
Morey raised her chin slightly. Counting her sanity shield, her sanity was as high as 867 points, and she still had 437 points left. As the tank at the forefront of the team, she deserved the honor.
After Morey is Sias, and then Shenyin who can restore his sanity. Su Xiao is at the back. Don't think that his position is safe. It is not easy to be in the rear.
The four members of the team walked along the curved corridor, passing more than a dozen doors along the way. When opened, they all had a similar layout, with bookshelves on both sides, and a doctor hanging from the chandelier on the inside of the corridor.
It can only be said that every doctor who worked in the castle before was afraid of death, but every one of them dared to die. They went through a lot of inner struggle before hanging themselves. Even if they died, they would not turn into beasts.
It's their choice.
At the end of the curved corridor was a double wooden door. Morey pushed the wooden door open, and a straight but wider corridor appeared. This corridor was about 5 meters high and 4 meters wide, with a row of candles sitting on it.
hanging lamp, hung on the ceiling.
There are passages on both sides of the corridor. These passages are about 2 meters wide, making the place look connected in all directions.
Walking along the main corridor, after the four members of the team walked more than ten meters, a ticking sound was suddenly heard from the passages on the walls on both sides, which was the sound of water drops falling to the ground.
Bang, bang, bang.
The sticky soles of her feet stepped on the marble floor. Under the illumination of candlelight, Su Xiao saw a humanoid creature walking out of a passage on the right.
This humanoid creature wore a loose gray-white hospital gown. It had a large sarcoma on its head. The sarcoma was nearly one meter in diameter and engulfed the humanoid creature's shoulders. There was blood oozing from the sarcoma.
The strange thing is that the blood does not gather downwards, but upwards. After forming water droplets, they will float up and disappear into the darkness above the channel.
The patient with the big head had no facial features and his head was just a big sarcoma, but it cried. It said in a sobbing tone: "Save...save me, Wang Yi's mistakes should not be made to us."
"Okay, how can we help you."
Morey quickly spoke. She was very good at negotiation.
"Are you descendants of the king? Answer yes or no. Don't say anything else. Don't try to lie to me."
The big-headed patient's voice became calmer. After hearing this, Morey immediately replied: "No."
"You are neither royal nor a doctor. Who asked you to come to the ward?"
The patient's voice was full of anger and questioning.
"We are doctors."
"You are not, you must not be, are you a royal descendant? The answer is yes or no."
The big-headed patient was particularly persistent. Morey sighed and replied sadly:
"Well, we are royal descendants, so we kept you waiting for a long time."
"King Yi! King Yi!! Why should we bear the responsibility for the mistakes you made and the anger of the ocean?!!"
On the head of the brain monster's sarcoma, there are incompletely developed eyes. In these eyes, a turbid orange light is reflected, which is the 'turbid light' of the swollen eye. Although it is not that strong, it is still very powerful.
Threat, once illuminated by the 'turbid light', you will immediately feel dizzy, accompanied by tinnitus, double images will appear in front of your eyes, and your body will become weak.
The change of the brain monster almost made Morey angry to death. The other party just asked them if they were royal descendants. It was a death question, and the answer was neither yes nor no.
Now, it’s a matter of competition to see who can run faster, and the camaraderie between teammates is fully demonstrated.
