The player was frightened to death on the spot. Other players who wanted to run upstairs were either on the other side, rushing upstairs without even noticing their feet, or were frightened by the torn old butler and rolled down the stairs.
Zhou Zhou and Elvia stood in the hall, watching everyone in panic. Several people even wanted to go out the door, but they didn't know how to open the stone door, and were groping around on the wall in a hurry.
"Al..." Zhou Zhou suddenly shouted at Alvia.
"What's wrong?" Alvia came over and asked.
Zhou Zhou tried hard to turn his head and look at his back, but the technique was too difficult and he couldn't see it.
"Please help me check my back."
Zhou Zhou turned around and saw a severed hand on his back, tightly grasping his clothes and hanging on them.
"It feels like there is something on my back." Zhou Zhou said as he shook his body. His severed hand also swayed slightly a few times, but he still held on to his clothes tightly.
Alvia's expression did not change at all. He glanced at the severed hand still crawling on the ground and the other severed hand behind Zhou Zhou, and said calmly, "There is a hand behind you."
Zhou Zhou shook a few more times, and he could indeed feel something on his back, but he couldn't see it.
"Why is it holding on to me?"
The expressions of both of them were too calm, which was in stark contrast to the players around them who were running around in panic because of their broken hands.
"Although they look a little weird, these severed hands are not dangerous. Do you want to take them off?"
Zhou Zhou shook and shook, but still couldn't shake the severed hand off. He looked around and frowned slightly: "If there is no danger, I will ignore it for now, but where is Lan Ya?"
"She ran upstairs with the other players." Elvia saw Lan Ya running upstairs among several players, and she ran very fast. The small girl took two or three steps at a time, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Let's go find her first." Zhou Zhou found that the severed hand did not move in any other way, so he didn't care about it anymore. He decided to find Lan Ya first. Lan Ya looked shy and timid. She might encounter some danger if she was alone. She ran upstairs at the first moment, so she must be very afraid of it.
Zhou Zhou and Elvia walked upstairs together with one hand hanging behind their backs. Before they had taken a few steps, a head rolled down the stairs.
The old butler's head was severed at the neck, but no blood flowed out and the fracture was very smooth.
The two watched the head rolling down the stairs into the hall. The few remaining players in the hall hid in cabinets, chairs and other high places. When they finally came to their senses and were able to look directly at the crawling hand, they found a head rolling in the hall, which was the old butler's head.
Although the old butler had a tough temper and was difficult to talk to, it was indeed terrifying to see a life that was just alive and well turned into just a head in an instant.
But when everyone took a breath and had no time to react, the head lying on the ground suddenly opened its eyes and murmured, "It hurts~"
The players finally couldn't hold it anymore and started a new round of screaming.
"Where did my body go~"
“Why can’t I see it~”
Every word he said caused a round of panic.
The old butler raised his eyelids slightly and looked around for his body. Everyone present who was swept by his eyes wished that they had never entered the castle. Who could resist this!
"Help! It's a zombie!"
“Let me out now!”
“Ahhhhh~”
And when they saw the severed hand, which was originally crawling all over the ground, using four flexible fingers to support itself and running towards the old man's head, and then using the back of the hand to press against the side of the old man's face and roll the head, this weird combination made the players start screaming hysterically.
Zhou Zhou, who was originally preparing to look for Lan Ya, stopped and discovered that the severed hand was trying to roll the old man's head towards the stairs.
He raised his head and looked back at the corner of the stairs. The old man's limbs and torso were lying on the ground in a mess. His legs tried hard to stand up, but due to lack of support, they could only spin on the ground. His torso and arms also moved from time to time on the ground.
The body parts scattered all over the ground looked like each piece was conscious, which was very scary to see up close.
Is this hand trying to move the head next to the butler's body?
Zhou Zhou thought about it and walked towards the old man's head. He picked up the old man's head from the ground and walked up the stairs.
The old man's body was put together like a puzzle. After the head, torso, and limbs were put together, the broken parts slowly began to merge, leaving obvious scars at the fractures.
"Um, are you okay?" Zhou Zhou asked the old man.
Perhaps because Zhou Zhou helped him, the old man lay on the ground, his tone slightly relaxed, and his voice hoarsely said: "It's okay, but I may need to rest for a while before I can move."
He answered Zhou Zhou's questions calmly, as if nothing had happened before.
"Okay then." Zhou Zhou moved the old man to the corner and let him lean against the wall, so that if someone wanted to go upstairs, they would not step on him.
He looked at the player who had fainted beside him.
He remembered that the last person who fainted in the dungeon was Keli, so this player should wake up soon.
So Zhou Zhou moved the player lying on the ground next to the old man. The two people were leaning against each other tightly, and the fainted player kept leaning towards the old butler because of his posture, and finally rested his head on the other's shoulder.
The butler couldn't move now, and didn't care about the unconscious player next to him.
"Uncle, we are going up to find our companions. You can rest here for a while."
The butler nodded slightly, looking a little weak. He then closed his eyes and said nothing more.
Just before Alvia and Zhou Zhou were about to go upstairs, a player's voice suddenly came from the hall: "That big guy, big brother, great god, please, can you take this hand away as well?"
The severed hand was still crawling all over the ground, and it wanted to crawl onto anyone it met. When it met a ruthless man like Zhou Zhou who could hold up his head with bare hands, it naturally wanted him to help take the hand away as well.
Looking at the players who were hiding on the cabinets and chairs, and trying to climb over the fireplace to avoid the severed hand, with panic and pleading on their faces, Zhou Zhou finally agreed.
After all, this was just a small matter for him. He couldn't understand why the players were so scared, and the players also couldn't understand where these two ruthless people came from. They didn't know whether they were brave or heartless to dare to catch such a weird thing with their bare hands.
Amid the shocked looks of the players, he went down again and picked up the severed hand.
"Let's go." Zhou Zhou said to Elvia while carrying one severed hand on his back and holding another severed hand.
The two went upstairs together, during which Alvia asked, "Aren't you scared?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Alvia pointed to the hand he was holding.
Zhou Zhou was very confused: "Didn't you say there was no danger? And what's there to be afraid of with just one hand?"
Alvia raised her eyebrows slightly, smiled and said nothing.
Zhou Zhou, who was standing on the second floor, found it very quiet here and didn't know where Lan Ya had gone.
So where do they start looking?
"Let's go to her room first. After all, when people are scared, they will subconsciously run to places they are familiar with. The room they have stayed in before can be considered a relatively familiar place." Elvia suggested.
So the two of them went to Lan Ya's room to look for someone.
Lan Ya, who had run upstairs with several other players, was not in the room at that time. She was timid to begin with, and the impact of the moving severed hand was too great for her. Her mind went blank at the time, and she subconsciously followed the people in front of her and ran upstairs. However, when the others were on the second and third floors, they all ran towards the room, but Lan Ya was the only one who ran straight to the top floor with her head covered.
Fortunately, she ran fast and did not see the old butler being smashed to pieces.
When she came to her senses, she was already alone at the entrance to the fifth floor.
The stairs behind her were narrow and dark, and the severed hand might climb up at any time. When Lan Ya thought that if she went downstairs, she might bump into the moving hand head-on, she wanted to cry.
She didn't dare go down.
The door behind her was ajar. Lan Ya, with red eyes, sniffed and whispered to the door, "Hello, is anyone there?"
The half-closed door opened slightly, as if blown by the wind. Lan Ya didn't want to enter the strange room, but she didn't dare to go downstairs either.
Looking at the light coming through the door and the dark stairs behind her, Lan Ya hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to gently push the door open.
The room was as bright as day. Lan Ya, who had been in the dim environment of the stairs for a long time, squinted her eyes due to the sudden light.
There were several bright lights hanging from the ceiling of the room, and under the light, Lan Ya squinted her eyes and saw a tall man standing in the room.
"I'm sorry, I barged in without permission." Lan Ya apologized to the people inside. She blinked several times and gradually adapted to the light.
This person should be the owner of the castle.
Lan Ya thought to herself, and looked towards the mysterious castle owner with her recovered sight.
The man in the room was standing with his back to Lan Ya. He was wearing a black suit. Although the suit looked a little weird on his tall figure, Lan Ya felt that there seemed to be something wrong with him.
She stood at the door and slowly took a step forward, only to realize that the other person had no arms.
The empty cuffs hang naturally on both sides of the body, forming a huge contrast with the other person's tall figure. This is why the other person looks wrong after putting on the clothes.
Although Lan Ya felt a little strange at this time, this situation was still normal. She asked politely: "Hello, are you the owner of the castle?" After all, this is the top floor of the castle, which is where the owner of the castle mentioned by the old butler is.
The person with his back to her suddenly moved.
The other person didn't move his body, but suddenly turned his head 180 degrees and asked Lan Ya: "Excuse me, have you seen my hand?"
The other person's face was covered with scars, looking ferocious and scary, especially with his head that could turn 180 degrees, which made the already timid Lan Ya stunned on the spot.
When the other party found that Lan Ya did not respond, he turned his body 180 degrees, looked at Lan Ya directly, and then walked towards her.
Lan Ya, whose mind was blank, finally exploded when the other party walked towards her.
Her slightly red eyes turned red in an instant, her lips trembled slightly, and then even her whole body was shaking.
"Are you okay?" The other person was getting closer and closer to Lan Ya, and that ferocious face was getting closer and closer to her.
"Did you see my hands down there? My hands got out and I couldn't find them."
Yes, is it the severed hand? Is that moving severed hand his?
While the other party was still talking, the petite Lan Ya suddenly rushed towards him.
Although she looked extremely frightened, her actions were completely contrary to her expression.
"Ahhhhh, help, there's a monster!"
“Woo woo woo~
Lan Ya picked up a chair in the room and hit the other person with it while holding it high up.
