Meanwhile, Willie and the system in the fast food restaurant were also talking about Castin.
The shop was originally closed, but after Willie walked around outside twice and just as he showed a disappointed expression, someone quickly ran over and opened the door.
"Vili, what brings you here?"
The system whispered a notification in his ear.
"Host, this is Ms. Kayla, the manager of the fast food restaurant."
Vili blinked and said familiarly:
“Sister Kayla, I’m hungry, so…”
Before he could finish speaking, Kayla reached out to pull him in, but then, remembering something, she withdrew her hand cautiously.
"Then come in quickly."
After Willie entered, she cautiously peeked out to make sure the guy wearing a burlap sack as a mask wasn't there before she breathed a sigh of relief.
After delivering the food to Willie, she sat across from him and chatted for a while until a waiter rushed over and whispered something in her ear before she reluctantly stood up.
"Villie, take your time eating."
After taking two steps, she suddenly turned back.
"Oh, right, go back to the farm quickly after you finish eating, and get a good night's sleep and don't wander off, okay?"
Willie, munching on a French fry, nodded obediently upon hearing this.
Kayla was still a little reluctant to leave. She glanced at the clock on the wall one last time before finally deciding to walk out with the shop assistant.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to give Willy another warning.
“Those outsiders are not good people, don’t trust them. If anyone bullies you, just talk to anyone in town, and we’ll help you get revenge.”
As she said this, a red glint flashed in her eyes. She looked at the tables and chairs in the store that had been smashed and were lying in disarray, and licked her lips.
After speaking, she finally left in a hurry.
As Willie looked at the clock on the wall pointing to 5 PM, he sensed that a big show was about to unfold.
That's something to look forward to!
He stuck out his tongue contentedly and licked the ketchup on his hand like a kitten, squinting his eyes from the sourness.
The store was empty, so the system transformed into a bird, landed on the table, and carefully pecked at the crumbs.
"Il, do you think that Castin is the main character?"
"How is that possible!"
The system denied it without hesitation.
"Xie Liqi is the main character; he's not a foreigner!"
"Moreover, he will only enter the game after all the players in the first round have died. At that time, the evil god will have absorbed the players' blood, transformed into his strongest form, and will then have a final duel with Xie Liqi!"
"Wow, that's amazing!"
Vili's tone was somewhat like coaxing a child, but the system didn't notice at all.
"Yes, yes." It nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
“But I still think Castin is a bit strange.” Willie wiped his hands clean, propped his head up with his hand, and stared blankly. “Wasn’t he mentioned in the original work?”
Upon hearing this, the system carefully reviewed the plot again and confirmed:
There is indeed no one with that name.
"However, the original work only mentions the players in the first round of the game briefly, without providing any specific details."
"So maybe he was in there too, but he wasn't important, which is why he wasn't mentioned."
Willie didn't really care about this; he just asked casually out of boredom.
"Speaking of which, I always feel like I've forgotten something..."
He looked up at the menu board behind the counter, remembered that Kayla had said he could eat whatever he wanted before she left, so he put that aside and ran over with great interest.
Il was also enjoying his meal immensely, without even looking up, and making a solemn vow.
"Host, I'm a system. Everything is stored in my memory. Don't worry, I've never forgotten anything!"
Willie nodded perfunctorily and started pouring himself a drink.
17:16——
The butcher was dragging his boning knife toward the town center.
-
"clang--"
At 5:48 PM, the tower clock rang ahead of schedule, and dusk suddenly descended. A blood-red mist enveloped the entire town like a veil, and the monster revealed its ferocious claws, trudging heavily through the streets.
At times like these, only a few players dare to venture out. Leaning against a dark corner in the alley, Castin looked down at the map in his hand.
He had taken this from the police station. It seemed to have been lying dormant in the drawer for a long time; the paper was yellowed and the creases were obvious.
Using the dim light, Castin confirmed the location of the church.
According to Ye Yu's hint, the truth behind the town's curse stemmed from a ritual performed by an evil god. Therefore, a church would be the most likely location, and Ye Yu confirmed his guess.
Although it's unknown whether the clues from the first night will reappear there, even if it's just to familiarize myself with the terrain, this place is a must-go.
I hope that all players will be safe and sound while I am away.
Castin glanced once more at the hotel's second floor, where the curtains were tightly drawn, and vaguely saw what appeared to be several streaks of blood, slowly dripping down.
But when he blinked again, it was as if nothing had changed.
Castin shook his head to calm himself down, put the map back in his coat pocket, and walked forward following the memories in his mind.
Just as he guessed, the townspeople were indeed furious about the atrocities that had occurred during the day; he had already seen more than one player's mutilated corpse on the road.
Apart from those who stayed put to eat, the remaining NPCs all headed towards the inn.
The map he had just looked at appeared in Castin's mind as if it had been printed out.
Based on the number of monsters he encountered along the way, he constantly adjusted his direction, occasionally navigating through back alleys. Although it took him longer, he didn't lose a single bullet until he stood before the black building.
