This is theoretically true, but who can guarantee that the body will be damaged? What if it was deliberately retained by a mage who was proficient in dark magic? Then they apply magic to the corpse, and then artificially create some kind of environmental evolution similar to the formation of corpse monsters. Finally, the spell book to summon the undead is engraved in the oil painting. As the years go by, hundreds or nearly a thousand years later, by some kind of chance coincidence Next time, someone accidentally discovered the oil painting and recited a spell. At that time, under the influence of the spell, the undead souls who had fallen into hell would return to the world, and then merge with the corpse reserved in advance, thus becoming a kind of A special existence that is close to a corpse demon but not quite a corpse demon. It is an alternative kind of man-made salamander based on magic!
As worthy of being the only executor in the team who understands Western culture, through Chen Xiaoyao's explanation of the corpse demon and her own unique insights into magic, Cheng Ying soon came up with a logical concept and her unique approach to He Fei's just judgment. The insights analyze the causes and consequences, and tell the birth process of the mummy nymph. Although the essence is just a guess, please don't forget that the beginning of many truths often comes from the initial guess!
And what’s even more coincidental is…
Cheng Ying thought so, and He Fei thought the same thing. The reason why the two of them collectively concluded that the mummy bug is a zombie-like existence was because He Fei had already made it clear that the mummy bug existed in a special way and had weird attack methods. If If there are still doubts about the above two points, then the behavior of mummy gnats devouring corpses is exactly the same as that of corpse demons!
Yes, it is precisely because the mummy hawk is so similar to the corpse demon that He Fei immediately decided after listening to Chen Xiaoyao's explanation that the mummy hawk was a zombie demon. Even if it was not formal, it was probably close to the zombie demon. exists.
"I, I... I'm a zombie, a zombie, I didn't expect that one day I, Chen Xiaoyao, would be able to meet a zombie that is even rarer than an earthbound spirit. It's over, I'm dead. The zombie is invincible. We I can only wait to die."
As mentioned above, after listening to He Fei's explanation and Cheng Ying's logical speculation, Chen Xiaoyao was dumbfounded at this moment. He who was still in disbelief at first began to sweat uncontrollably on his forehead, and then his face became even more bitter. The bitter smile was almost the same as despair, but...
"Wait, wait!"
For some reason, with just two wry smiles, Chen Xiaoyao, whose face was full of bitterness just now, suddenly changed his expression again. He suddenly raised his head as if he suddenly thought of something, and then asked He Fei and Cheng Ying in surprise: "You two?" Are you sure the mummy is a corpse demon? But that thing doesn't seem to be as powerful as the legend says. Although it is indeed invincible in the eyes of humans, its actual strength is only at the level of a conventional earthbound spirit? What's going on? "
Not to mention, as a smart genius who is often praised by his master, Chen Xiaoyao finally reacted after a moment of despair. After recalling the various methods of the mummy, he suddenly felt strange, and the reason that led to his doubts and curiosity was precisely The strength of the mummy is weak, at least compared to the zombie demon, far from reaching the level of the real zombie demon. You must know that the real zombie demon can slaughter a city and destroy the world! But in fact? In fact, mummies are not good at it. Through early observation, he found that mummies can only reach the level of conventional earth-bound spirits at most. Of course, if they can reach the level of earth-bound spirits, they can be equal to invincibility. Unfortunately, they are still inferior to many real corpse monsters. Not even one-tenth of the corpse demon.
How is this going? Huh? Difficult, is it difficult...
Could it be that the mummy is not a corpse demon, but an imitation, a weakened version of the corpse demon that can only exert one-tenth of the strength of the real corpse demon at most! ?
……………
Chris Castle, 3rd floor, end room.
In the dim room, Chen Xiaoyao suddenly felt enlightened, so he said to He Fei opposite him in a tentative tone: "I seem to understand what you mean, that so-called corpse demon...could it be a weakened version?"
He Fei nodded noncommittally and said: "Well, you can also say that, I admit that when I first listened to your explanation to the corpse demon, I was frightened, but after thinking about it carefully, I found out that it was unreasonable. That is, the real corpse demon is too heaven-defying, and has gone against the heavens to the point of turning everything upside down. If the curse really releases a real corpse demon, with the ability of the corpse demon, we, as mortals, will 100% have no way to survive. So, after thinking about this, After clicking, I changed my opinion. The real situation may be as Cheng Ying guessed. The mummy is a man-made corpse demon. After all, the real corpse demon can only occur naturally. Compared with natural production, artificial corpse demons are undoubtedly It’s not a real corpse demon, but even if it is, its strength must be far inferior to the genuine corpse demon, and only in this way can we have a glimmer of hope.”
"Huh? That's right. If you understand it this way, doesn't it mean that what we are facing now is actually an imitation of a corpse demon, not a real corpse demon?" As soon as He Fei said this, until this moment, Chen Xiaoyao Only then did he realize the complete realization, and then He Fei's fear was slightly reduced, and he nodded in approval. But then again, even if the fear is reduced and the mentality is slightly relaxed, in fact, the mummy still has the strength comparable to the conventional earth-bound spirits. As for the earth-bound spirits, what are they? How terrifying it was. No matter He Fei, Cheng Ying or Chen Xiaoyao were present, the three of them all knew it. Because of this, although the fear was reduced, it only concealed the despair. In reality, the three of them were still nervous.
Perhaps the panic brought about a sense of crisis, or the gradually dimming of the environment attracted extra attention from someone at the scene. While He and Chen were talking, Cheng Ying saw the corridor through the door that had been dismantled. It was dark. Seeing this, the girl walked to the door and pressed the switch. Unexpectedly, when the switch was pressed, the room was still dark and the light above her head did not respond.
(Um?)
Obviously, since it is known that the power of the castle has been restored by a group of security guards, this means that the castle should be currently powered on. But strangely, as the sun sets, when the castle environment becomes darker and darker, the switch is pressed. The light didn't turn on?
After confirming that the switch was invalid, Cheng Ying looked stunned in front of the door. How could He Fei and Chen Xiaoyao, who were both at the scene, not see or even instinctively care about the unexplained power failure? Of course, they just care about it. After all, all of them have experienced strong winds and waves, and they have long been immune to some strange phenomena. Not to mention that the lights are not on, even if they are hallucinating, it is difficult for them to panic. At most, they are nervous. Sure enough, confirm The power supply was inexplicably interrupted, and the environment became darker and darker. After looking at Cheng Ying in front of the door, He Fei frowned slightly and said nothing. He just lowered his head and looked at his watch. He saw that the time had unknowingly entered the night, and the time had just arrived. 18 o'clock at the turn of the night.
(It’s getting dark...)
No one knows what He Fei is thinking at the moment, but Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao, who are both at the scene, understand He Fei's character and know that He Fei will never do meaningless things during the mission, or that he would never do anything meaningless as early as Sui He. When they flew to the third floor and returned to this strange room, the two of them had already concluded that He Fei must have his own plan. At times like this, smart people would not ask questions. The only thing they have to do is to protect He Fei. , Do your best to protect this young college student who represents hope in front of you. Cheng Ying knows this truth, so from the moment she arrived on the third floor, Cheng Ying has been listening in all directions while He Fei is observing the wall. Even Chen Xiaoyao, who had always talked a lot of nonsense and had a funny personality, changed his past behavior and started to be as cautious as Cheng Ying. Because he knew that there was a mission world in front of him, in order to enhance his own perception, Chen Xiaoyao also deliberately put a A Taoist talisman was posted at the door, as if he was being cautious to the extreme, until...
Until He Fei lowered his head to confirm the time, there was no need for the two of them to ask. As soon as he looked at the time, He Fei raised his left hand and at the same time opened his mouth and said something to the ruby ring that represented the captain's identity, a very brief message. : "I'm He Fei, listen up, everyone is gathering on the third floor of the castle immediately. The location is still in the end room."
Without any explanation, He Fei used the mind link, the only means of communication that was not subject to supernatural interference. With the help of the mind link, He Fei issued an order and asked all the executors of the scattered castle to return to the battlefield again as the captain. gather!
………
At the same time, the 2nd floor of the castle.
"I'm He Fei, listen up, everyone is gathering on the third floor of the castle immediately. The location is still in the end room."
Since the voice came directly to his mind, after confirming that it was the spiritual link sent by He Fei, Peng Hu was stunned in the hall. Together with Li Tianheng and Tang Meng next to him, he looked sideways to the opposite side, and collectively looked at the road leading to At the circular staircase on the 3rd floor, even Zhao Ping, who was originally busy analyzing the problem, stopped thinking at the same time. Next...
"Let's go upstairs!"
Sure enough, based on their unconditional trust in He Fei, as soon as they received the notice, without even asking, everyone immediately rushed to the stairs under the leadership of Peng Hu, Zhao Ping also followed closely with Kong Ling on his back, but , compared to Peng Hu and others, the man with glasses had a lot of thoughts while running.
(Are you calling everyone together again? It seems you have discovered important clues...)
Let’s not talk about whether what Zhao Ping is thinking is correct, because the spiritual link can contact all the executors instantly. In addition to Peng Hu and others in the lobby on the second floor who clearly received it, why didn’t the executors hiding in other places not receive it? As expected, with a rush of running, just when Peng Hu and others arrived at the front stairs, they met an acquaintance. Jiang Dafeng, who had disappeared for a long time, came running in a panic, running at a speed that was not inferior to that of a track and field athlete. Heading towards the stairs, not only Jiang Dafeng rushed over, but the nervous girl Qiao Mengting also rushed over from the other direction. Not to mention, although they were newcomers, they were not stupid after all, and they could see clearly. In reality, at least we know that gathering all the people together can guarantee safety to a certain extent. In any case, it is better than being alone. Because of this, as soon as He Fei received the notice, the two people who were originally hiding came over immediately without saying a word. Rush to the 3rd floor as quickly as possible.
Seeing two more people gathered here, in a hurry, how could Peng Hu be willing to talk nonsense? Regardless of saying hello, he directly waved his hand and led everyone up the stairs. However, the gathering was not over. As soon as the crowd climbed up the stairs, the hall made noise again, accompanied by bursts of running noises. Soon, Chen Shuihong was panting and panicked. He rushed over and returned to the second floor from the first floor with his body covered with fat, and immediately ran to the stairs non-stop. Obviously, like everyone who had just gone upstairs, Chen Shuihong, who had earlier escaped alone with props, had also received the notice from He Fei. It is true that the first floor seems to be slightly safer than the second floor, but is it safer than staying with the captain? Can it be safer than everyone getting together? What's more, he knows the danger of being alone better than anyone else, so naturally, when He Fei's voice came to mind, Chen Shuihong, who was still looking around on the first floor, immediately changed his plan, turned around and returned, resolutely returning to the second floor. Floor, and now he is rushing to the 3rd floor without any care.
It is conceivable that Jiang Dacheng and Qiao Mengting, both newcomers, knew clearly enough to leave immediately. Even Chen Shuihong, who was on the first floor of the safe, ventured back after receiving the notice. So how could Xie Xiaona become a special case? Even though she had been frightened to death, she could finally distinguish the pros and cons of reality. She understood like everyone else that it was safest to gather in a team, and now there was an opportunity, the best chance to get rid of being alone.
The scene shifts to the west area on the second floor.
The dark room was instantly pierced by light. With the help of the cat's eye flashlight, the bright light easily penetrated the darkness, and then changed the environment, giving a panoramic view of the room scene.
Since the room was located at the end corner, and the door was closed and there was no window, unlike others who stayed in the dark the entire time, Xie Xiaona was afraid of the dark and always felt that there was some kind of terrifying existence hidden in the darkness that could kill her, which made her fearful and panic-stricken. All day long, and having been alone for a long time, in the end, the female internet celebrity couldn't stand the darkness anymore, so she took out her flashlight and released the light. Not to mention, as the flashlight was turned on and released the light, the room suddenly became brighter, and the light dispelled the darkness. By the way, Xie Xiaona Feeling a little more at ease, it was like now, using a flashlight to see the room environment as a whole. After confirming with her own eyes that there were no scary existences around her, Xie Xiaona's fear was slightly lessened, at least she was much more relaxed than before.
Undoubtedly, because she was too timid, from the moment she narrowly escaped the trap, Xie Xiaona went straight to the west area on the second floor. After going through a series of twists and turns, she finally hid in a room at the end of the room near the toilet. In other words, there is a toilet opposite the room. The result is yes, because it is too close to the toilet. In the next few hours, the unique smell of disinfectant water from the toilet always filled her nasal cavity, choking and making her extremely uncomfortable. Of course, this is not the point. It is a fact. No matter how pungent the smell was, Xie Xiaona never went out to change rooms. The reason was naturally that the room was hidden and it was an excellent hiding place. That said, but if you dig deeper, the hidden room can only be one of the reasons. The real reason is that the room is hidden. The reason why she didn't dare to go out was the frequent noises from the outside world.
The sounds of piercing gunshots, loud shouts, and even soul-stirring screams took turns in the following time, and continued to stimulate the woman's already fragile rational nerve. Although she did not know what was happening outside, But she had seen the wolf with her own eyes, and knew that there was a wolf in the castle. There was a ferocious wolf that killed people on sight. Once discovered, the end result would be like that of the security guard, who would be torn apart by the wolf in the air. There is no whole body in death.
Xie Xiaona didn't want to die, and she didn't want to become a pile of broken flesh and corpses scattered on the ground. Therefore, from the moment she hid in this seemingly hidden room, Xie Xiaona never left or moved her position. She just sat on the bed. My head was restless until the evening ended and night fell, but...
As night fell, the environment turned dark. When she found that the lights in the room could not be turned on, Xie Xiaona gradually couldn't sit still. She was already frustrated and nervous, and her fear surged in the darkness. She always felt that there was something hidden in the darkness. Peep into your own eyes at all times!
Snap.
Under the pressure of intensifying fear, Xie Xiaona turned on the flashlight, and immediately opened her eyes wide and looked around, scanning along the flashlight beam. Fortunately, after observing, except for the bed she was sitting on and the table, chair and bench opposite, there was nothing around her. No, she saw everything and heard nothing.
"call!"
Sure enough, at this moment, after confirming that there was nothing unusual in the room, Xie Xiaona took a long breath in front of the bed, and at the same time took out her mobile phone with her free left hand, and took out the Apple mobile phone she usually used to live broadcast. Note that although she took out her mobile phone, Taking out her mobile phone did not mean making a call, because she had contacted her teammates as early as the beginning of hiding, and used her mobile phone to contact all the senior players, including He Fei. Unfortunately, she failed. No matter who she contacted, her mobile phone always had a busy tone and the signal was always Zero, because she couldn't contact anyone or get any help, she didn't dare to go out and just hid in her room. At present, she took out her phone just to check the time. When she looked down, she saw the time. It happened to be 18 o'clock which represents the night time.
As mentioned above, after confirming the current time, Xie Xiaona swallowed, bit her lips, and then tentatively clicked on her phone to open the communication history again.
Yes, since it was already night and the outside noise had long since disappeared, Xie Xiaona, who had been hiding in the room for several hours, gradually came up with ideas, including trying to continue contacting in case the signal was restored. Woolen cloth? Once the signal is restored, she will be able to learn about the outside world through other executors. If it is safe, she will definitely leave the room to find someone to join her, and then she will be able to completely get rid of the alone state.
With a sense of luck, just like the first time, as soon as she looked at the time, Xie Xiaona continued to operate. First, she opened the communication record, then found He Fei and started to contact him, but...
What Xie Xiaona didn't expect was that just when she was about to press the communication number representing He Fei, or just before she planned to contact He Fei, He Fei contacted her first!
Just like dropping a pebble into a lake that had been silent for a long time, suddenly, a voice came out of thin air in my mind, a message that clearly belonged to He Fei no matter how I listened:
"I'm He Fei, listen up, everyone is gathering on the third floor of the castle immediately. The location is still in the end room."
As a newcomer, although Xie Xiaona did not understand this strange contact method, at least she received the news. Not only did she learn about He Fei's location, but she also learned that the team was gathering. The executors who had been scattered were gathering towards the third floor. !
Hooray.
The result was certain, regardless of how weird the contact information was. As soon as she received the spiritual link, Xie Xiaona got up and left. Like Jiang Dafeng and Qiao Mengting who were hiding elsewhere, they gave up hiding and rushed to the third floor. For a while, the three newcomers were like this Rushing to the target from different directions, but...
(Um?)
Different from Jiang Dafeng and Qiao Mengting who had nothing to do all the way, the moment Xie Xiaona opened the door and came to the corridor, something happened to her, and she saw a shocking scene that seemed familiar to her:
Pushing open the door and coming to the corridor, Xie Xiaona discovered the light before she could turn around and move. A ball of purple light pierced the darkness without any warning, instantly illuminating the area where Xie Xiaona was. As for the location of the purple light...
The top of the head is just above where Xie Xiaona is standing!
Human beings are standard subconscious creatures. The so-called subconscious refers to the instinctive response instructions issued by the brain when encountering unclear or incomprehensible situations, which prompts people to become curious, search and observe. It is a common subconscious behavior. Fortunately, there are no absolutes in everything. , after training, senior people can suppress curiosity and even respond immediately. However, unfortunately, Xie Xiaona is not a senior person. As an ordinary person who was living leisurely in reality a few days ago, Xie Xiaona cannot suppress subconscious instincts. , so she could only be controlled by curiosity. Curiosity prompted her to have doubts, and doubts caused him to instinctively raise his head. The moment he noticed the purple light coming from above his head, he stopped moving and raised his head, and then...
She saw the circle, a large group of star formations that were basically the same as the formations on the third floor!
As mentioned above, Xie Xiaona went to the third floor of the castle with her team in the afternoon. By observing the wall, Xie Xiaona knew that there was a blood-colored circle painted on the wall. The female senior named Cheng Ying also concluded that the circle belonged to the star formation that represents magic. , the memory is like this, and the fact is also the same. In fact, when she looked up and saw the circle above, Xie Xiaona had already recognized the identity of the circle. It was a magic circle, a starry magic circle representing magic. However, there were also differences. Among them The most obvious thing is...
If the magic circle painted on the wall on the third floor is blood-colored and pure red, then the magic circle that appears above the head at this moment is not red, but a bright and dazzling purple!
Let's get back to the topic, admittedly there is a lot of description above, but in fact, the purple aperture suddenly appeared, and when Xie Xiaoya noticed something strange and instinctively raised her head, the whole process lasted only a moment. In just a moment, Xie Xiaona saw with her own eyes a large group of stars shining with purple light. The array appeared at the top of the corridor, and the position was just above his head! Due to the sudden change, Xie Xiaona was stunned when she saw it. Her mind was briefly attracted by the extremely beautiful bright purple light, and then she just looked up and stared upward. Next...
Through the purple light, she discovered something again. She found something protruding from the center of the aperture, slowly lowering a human head with long hair in a top-down manner, a woman's head with purple hair just like the aperture! ! !
