Chapter 135 Time Disorder [Please do not store raw materials in the micro refrigerator...
[It was detected that the player still completed the dungeon perfectly despite the system failure, and even opened hundreds of rooms but still escaped unscathed. The special items are as follows:]
[Item name: Miniature refrigerator]
[Given by a naive and lovely little girl, it is more convenient to carry around than a common refrigerator. It is only the size of a palm, but can store items ten times its size.]
[The refrigerator can only hold food, and once the food is put into the refrigerator, it will shrink in proportion and cannot be restored to its original shape after being taken out. However, apart from the size, the characteristics, nutrition, satiety, etc. of the food itself will not change. ]
【Note: Please do not store raw meat in the micro-refrigerator. 】
[Item name: Special invitation]
[A dark red invitation letter with five people's signatures on it. It contains the blessings of five neighbors to the player and has a certain hypnotic effect.]
[After writing the exact place name on the invitation letter, hand it to anyone, and the other person will be bewitched and subconsciously go to that place. ]
【Note: The invitation letter will become invalid after being used once. 】
[Item name: Temporary camouflage]
[A pack of special tiger skin chicken feet, the supermarket manager guessed that the player liked this appearance, so he gave it to the player. After eating it, you can transform yourself into the appearance of tiger skin chicken feet for half an hour.]
[Item Name: Word Spirit Trumpet]
[This is the gift "it" gave you - a red and white horn. The horn can be used multiple times, but there is a three-hour cooldown period after each use.]
[The horn has the power of words, and the words spoken through the horn will become reality.]
[Note: The effect of the Word Spirit Horn is limited. If it exceeds the ability range, it cannot be realized, and the horn will immediately enter a cooling period. ]
[The special items currently held by players are: "Secret Axe", "Bell of the Dead", "Bird's Beak Mask", "Inferior Skin", "Start Over", "Peeping Eyeball", "Desire Horn", "Companion Doll", "Mini Fridge", "Special Invitation", "Temporary Disguise", and "Word Speaker". ]
The mechanical sound of the system flashed quickly in her mind. Cecilia glanced at the functions of the special items and then focused her attention on reality.
Just like before entering the dungeon, she was lying on the bed in the bedroom, but the surrounding environment seemed to have changed, even the bedding was changed.
It shouldn't be.
Cecilia stroked the pattern she had never seen before and got up from the bed.
The flow of time in the copy is different from that in reality. Logically, only a few seconds should have passed in the Western fantasy world. How could the room change so much?
She pushed the door open doubtfully, and exchanged glances with the anxious guards at the door.
"Your Highness!"
"It's His Highness who has returned!"
"Quick! Quickly inform Lady Catherine! We finally found Her Highness!"
“…”
As soon as Cecia appeared, she caused a sensation. Some guards handed her a coat, some used magic to check her body, and some hurried away to inform Catherine.
No, what on earth happened? Didn't she just disappear for a few seconds...
Cecia was confused and passively accepted a full physical examination.
"Your Highness! You are finally back!"
Catherine came quickly using teleportation magic and grabbed her arm anxiously. The bruises under her eyes showed that she had not rested well.
"Where on earth have you been? Why didn't you tell me?"
After receiving the guards' report that all the results were healthy, Catherine began to question him.
"Do you know how worried I am? For five whole days, you just disappeared without a word. What should I do? What should the demons do?"
Five days?
Cecilia was a little confused.
In reality, what passes is not five seconds, but five days?
Seeing Cecilia's confused look, Catherine had a guess. She signaled the surrounding guards to retreat and took Cecilia into the closed meeting room.
"Your Highness, are you going to the dungeon again?"
Catherine adjusted her glasses and asked straight to the point.
"Yes, but there seems to be a problem this time."
Cecia answered truthfully, "When I came out of the dungeon before, only a few seconds had passed in reality. I didn't expect that five days would pass this time..."
"I'm afraid you're not the only one who didn't expect it."
Catherine opened the scroll in her hand and spoke with deep meaning, "As far as I know, the leader of the blood clan, the mother of the Perseran clan, and the leader of the giant clan have also disappeared."
"They disappeared almost at the same time as you, and have not appeared in the past five days."
Will and Blake? They were indeed in the dungeon, but the leader of the giants... She had never seen Kai in the dungeon. If he disappeared, where could he have gone?
"Katherine, are you saying Kai disappeared too?"
Cecia asked, for double confirmation.
"That's right. Although the giants are trying their best to keep the news secret, the noise they are making is really too loud. Moreover, they have also come to the demon tribe, trying to find you in a roundabout way."
If Kai really entered the dungeon, but she had never seen him in the dungeon...
She had a bad feeling in her heart and looked up at Catherine.
"Go and have people search the area around the sleeping hall now. Regardless of whether they are humans or the missing leaders, bring back any suspicious individuals you see!"
"As you command, Your Highness."
Catherine bowed and was about to leave when there was a sudden and violent knock on the door.
"Come in."
She opened the door and saw a guard stumbling in.
"What's going on? Why are you so irritable?"
Catherine frowned, but the other person was breathing rapidly and it took him a long time to catch his breath.
"Your Highness! Lady Catherine!"
The guard who had recovered from the shock hurriedly saluted and reported anxiously, "We found a tribe of giants in the back garden!"
Giants? Could it be Kai?
Cecilia and Catherine looked at each other, and they understood each other tacitly. They used teleportation magic at the same time and came to the back garden.
…
"Your Highness, you are here."
Seeing them coming, the guards nearby wisely made way for them.
Cecia took a few steps forward and walked to the object surrounded by the guards.
That familiar baby face, the disproportionately sturdy body, and the giants' exclusive wooden sign... No matter how you look at it, it's Kai, the current leader of the giants.
Since Kai, who had disappeared for five days, suddenly appeared in the demon territory, it meant that he had indeed entered the dungeon - just as they had speculated before, every time a new dungeon was opened, a new leader would join.
The reason why Kai was unconscious should be because of an accident in the dungeon. However, if one died in the dungeon, it stands to reason that one cannot leave the dungeon...
Perhaps, it’s because of a system loophole?
Cecia's mind flashed through several scenarios where the system had failed.
There was a bug in the copy, so the flow of time outside changed, causing them to disappear for five days. Kai might also be a victim of the glitch.
Fortunately, Kai's vital signs were still stable, but he fell into a coma for unknown reasons.
"Catherine, arrange for someone to carry Kai to the guest room."
Cecia ordered, "By the way, find someone to inform the Giants, the Bloods, and the Perserans, and tell them that their leader has been found, and ask them to come and pick him up."
"As you command, Your Highness."
Although she still had doubts in her heart, Catherine never questioned Cecilia in front of others.
She arranged the guards and was about to go look for humans with Cecia, but was interrupted by a guard who arrived in a hurry.
"Your Highness! The body of an unknown creature was found next to the fountain!"
The other party was pale and knelt on the ground to report the situation.
Unknown creature?
It should refer to humans, but why are there human corpses here?
Could it be that the man with dreadlocks didn’t make it because of his severe injuries…
Cecia used teleportation magic again and came to the place the guard said.
"Right here! She was already dead when we found her."
Following the guard's direction, she saw a familiar face.
That was the woman in black whom she had seen in the "Fortune Telling Room" in the room. Now, she was lying lifeless on the ground.
"Everyone, step back! There are traces of contamination on her!"
Catherine screamed. She was very sensitive to contamination and immediately noticed something was wrong with the woman in black.
pollute?
Cecia frowned and used her magic to test the black-clad woman's body.
"Your Highness!"
Catherine stopped him disapprovingly.
"Didn't you say that humans are immune to pollution? But since there are traces of pollution on her body, perhaps the legendary humans are not that magical. You should stop being obsessed with humans and stop entering the dungeon to take risks!"
“…She didn’t die from pollution.”
Cecia said coldly, pointing at the other person's crooked head, "Her neck was broken, and the contamination is the mark left by the murderer."
"It seems that you know who the murderer is?"
Catherine understood the implication.
"Boris."
She spat out the name without hesitation.
"I seem to have heard it somewhere. I remember it was from a certain earl of the blood clan?"
Catherine recalled and searched her mind for information about the other party.
"He looks similar to the current leader of the Blood Clan. It is said that they are brothers. However, he defected from the Blood Clan a few years ago and was hunted down by the entire Blood Clan. His whereabouts are currently unknown."
"I saw him in the dungeon."
Cecia said, mobilizing her magic power to burn the body of the woman in black. "Looking at the extent of the pollution left behind, he should have escaped long ago. What a cunning guy."
"How did he get involved with pollution?"
"I don't know, but he is completely unaffected by pollution and can even control it to some extent..."
Having said that, she looked at Catherine.
"During the five days I was gone, did anything unusual happen over there?"
"No."
Catherine shook her head and raised her hand to pull up the latest pollution report.
"There have been no riots in the past five days, and the speed at which the pollution spreads has been very slow, as if it has returned to the level before the riots."
"really."
Cecia said softly, the note left by Boris flashing through her mind.
"The last riot was probably controlled by Boris. He was also in the dungeon during the five days I disappeared, so there was no way to interfere or control the pollution."
"Now that he's back, there's a high probability that pollution will become abnormal in the near future, so you need to be prepared in advance."
"I see."
Catherine recorded the incident and continued to search the area with her men.
After a whole day of searching, Wilbert and Black were also found by the guards. Not only that, they also found a total of thirty humans, including the extremely terrified Jia Dadan.
After learning the number, Cecia breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Boris was busy escaping and only had time to kill the woman in black. Otherwise, if a few more humans died, it would be a huge loss for the demon clan.
After returning to the bedroom, she hadn't even sat down when the door was knocked again -
"Your Highness, the people from the blood clan, giant clan, and Perseran clan have arrived, and they want to see you."
