Chapter 15 Blood Moon Night (Fifteen)
“I don’t know if this thing is poisonous or not?” Nan Huan couldn’t help but twitching his lips as he watched the hound chewing with relish.
"Why do you eat everything?"
Nan Huan pinched the hound's ears again. She had enjoyed the trip and thought it was not bad to have a pet.
It's just that her body is not feeling well right now, otherwise she would like to hold the hound in her arms and rub it for a while.
It was obvious that the witch was not someone to be trifled with, and now he didn’t know if there was anything wrong with the flower, so Nan Huan was a little worried.
The hound didn't seem to understand Nan Huan's meaning, but it was very kind and used its nose to push the weightless Nan Huan to another purple flower that had already bloomed.
Would you like to try it too? It's delicious.
Nan Huan felt that he seemed to understand its meaning and was a little amused.
But she still took a closer look. The clusters of blue and purple flowers dotted on the branches and leaves looked quite beautiful.
Nan Huan stretched out his hand to pull the leaves over and smell them, but as soon as his hand touched the leaves, the system prompt sounded.
【bite--
Congratulations to the player for obtaining Aconitum x1
Tip: You found the Aconitum that the witch was trying to hide. Legend has it that Aconitum is an indispensable item for werewolf transformation on the night of the blood moon. With it, you can awaken the sleeping beast, but be careful not to be attacked by the beast. 】
Nan Huan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
This was the first time she heard the words "Blood Moon Night" explicitly mentioned in the prompts after entering the game. In other words, after completing two side quests, she finally found a clue directly related to the dungeon.
There was also a werewolf, and that sentence that seemed to be either a warning for her to be careful or a deliberate reminder to add fuel to the fire.
It seems that these fragmented clues can be pieced together soon.
I don’t know if this was a coincidence or just luck.
Nan Huan smiled and touched the hound's ear, then turned to the garden to pick some Aconitum and put them in the warehouse on his panel.
Such a large area of weeds was out of place with the surroundings. Nanhuan smelled traces of burning not long after he entered.
It is not difficult to guess that the witch originally wanted to destroy the Aconitum, but she did not expect that even after the main grass was burned, this thing still grew well.
In the end, I don’t know where I found this hound, and in the name of protection, I asked it to stay here.
Once the flowers bloom, eat them immediately.
This means that the witch and the werewolf are not from the same group.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Nan Huan understood this principle, so he took the opportunity to collect more Aconitum, thinking that he might be able to use it.
All he had to do next was to wait, but Nan Huan didn't want to stay.
She let the hound carry her as she searched the bushes for the voodoo doll that had been chasing her.
On the back of the hound, the fox is borrowing the tiger's power to bully others. Uh, no, it should be called the man is borrowing the dog's power to bully others.
Looking at those voodoo dolls, he was very happy to see her at the beginning, then he felt helpless when he found that he couldn't touch her, and finally he felt panic when he was chased by hounds.
She lay on the hound's back, laughing happily.
Who made her hold a grudge? She was chased so badly before, and now she has to get revenge.
Seeing that the time was almost up, she gently pulled the hair on the hound's neck and gestured in the direction of the castle, and the hound ran in that direction.
At this moment, the battle on the third floor and in the basement has almost come to an end.
Xiaoxue and Li Shuai had just completed a side quest. They were very tired and wanted to find a corner in the living room to rest.
As a result, they heard a hearty laughter coming from outside the door, and listened for a while, it sounded like Nan Huan's voice, and the two of them moved to the door involuntarily.
As a result, I suddenly saw a miniature version of Nanhuan, sitting on the back of a hunting dog and shouting.
Before she could be surprised, she saw that the other person was holding a piece of wild grass in his hand, and there seemed to be something tied to the other end. She looked closely and confirmed that the other end was tied to a doll about the same size as her, but the other doll was not as cute as Nan Huan.
Nan Huan stared at the countdown, and before the last second came, he slid down from the hound's back along the weeds in his hand.
【bite--
The hide-and-seek game time is over, congratulations to the player for surviving successfully. 】
As the prompt sound ended, Nan Huan returned to his original appearance. His arms, which had been a little stiff, gradually regained consciousness. The doll tied with weeds suddenly disappeared.
Xiaoxue and Li Shuai originally thought that the side quest they had completed was amazing enough, but now seeing Nan Huan suddenly change from the Q version to his original appearance, they felt that they still lacked experience.
The first thing Nan Huan did after he came back to life was to hug the hound in his arms and rub it for a long time.
Although the skill time had expired, the hound did not show any reluctance to Nan Huan's approach. Instead, it rubbed its furry head against Nan Huan's neck, making the other party laugh out of itchiness.
The man and the dog hugged each other for a long time before Nan Huan reluctantly separated.
"I'll play with you again when I'm done."
The other party could not come out of the experimental field due to system restrictions. Nan Huan pinched its ears for a while before letting it run back.
When she stood up, she saw two stunned people standing on the steps.
"Did you just finish the side quest?"
Nan Huan patted the dog hair on his hands, and seeing that both of them looked a little embarrassed, he asked casually. Without waiting for the other party to answer, he seemed to remember something and pointed to the bush.
"This is a female...doctor's experimental field. There are vicious dogs inside. Please stay away from it."
She changed her words halfway through her speech, fearing that Xiaoxue and Li Shuai would be punished for knowing the doctor's secret.
From the doctor's attitude in the morning and the side quest they had just completed, Xiaoxue and Li Shuai knew it was not easy to get into this experimental field, so they nodded quickly.
Nan Huan was very satisfied to see that the trust levels of the two people had increased by a few more points, and he felt very happy.
Bang Bang——
Before the three of them could say a few words, they heard two sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground in the living room.
Following the sound, I saw Cui Zhongming looking in a state of disgrace, with his legs kneeling on the ground, unable to get up.
Nan Huan was stunned for a moment, then pinched his chin, a little unbelievable, "I just led away most of the witch dolls, there's no need to be so polite and give me such a big gift, right?"
Which eye of yours saw that I was saluting?
It was just that my legs were stiff for too long, and it took me a long time to recover after I regained my strength.
Besides, if it weren’t for you, would I have encountered such a thing?
Perhaps there were too many things to complain about, so Cui Zhongming simply shut up and gave Nan Huan a look that was about to pop out of the sky.
Then Nan Huan saw that the trust level on the other party’s head finally broke through 0.
But instead of going up, it fell from 0 to -10.
Nan Huan's self-confidence was hit.
Before Nan Huan could use the experimental field to test the other party to see if the trust level could be increased a little, he heard some noise coming from the stairs.
When I looked up, I saw the doctor standing on the steps, oh, no, now I should call her the witch.
Before Nan Huan could react, she saw the two people standing on her left and right took a step back in unison, as if they were very afraid of the doctor.
Nan Huan gave Xiao Xue a puzzled look.
"She's very powerful. In the side quest just now, Li Shuai and I almost suffered a great loss."
Facing the doctor's gaze, Xiaoxue didn't dare to say much and just briefly explained the situation.
Nan Huan nodded and said nothing.
In fact, ever since the doctor appeared, Nan Huan's eyes have been on her, or to be more precise, on the scepter in her hand.
She didn't use the thing as a crutch like she did in the morning, but just held it in her hand.
The scepter was completely black, and was no different from the one Nan Huan saw in the morning, except that it seemed to emit a little red light when it was held in the witch's hand at the very top.
Before Nan Huan could see clearly, the witch's sleeve covered her entire hand.
She stared at Nan Huan with bloodshot eyes, her gaze filled with undisguised greed.
It was like a wolf with green light finally saw its food.
The person who was watching felt uneasy and then uttered a word in a low voice.
"I've finally waited for you. You're doing great..."
From beginning to end, the witch's gaze was always on Nan Huan. There was no need to specify who she was talking to.
As the words fell, the atmosphere in the entire castle suddenly became cold.
Li Shuai and Xiao Xue couldn't help but shiver. Their whole bodies tensed up involuntarily, fearing that the doctor might take action at any time.
But unexpectedly, the other party did not seem to have any intention of taking action.
After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs again.
All that was left was the tail end of the scepter hitting the wooden stair railing, leaving behind one knock after another.
Nan Huan didn't have any special reaction, but just concentrated, trying to figure out the meaning of the other party's words.
"What task did you just do? Did you offend her? What did she mean by saying that to you?"
Xiaoxue waited until the doctor was no longer visible before she approached Nanhuan and asked cautiously.
Xiaoxue's reason for asking this question was not just to get some information from Nanhuan, but also because she was worried about the other party.
After all, Nan Huan had already proactively given them reminders several times, and if the other party encountered any problems, they would also like to help.
"Are you sure you want to know?" Nan Huan turned around and looked at her with amusement, "Even if I was turned into a doll and played hide-and-seek for an hour just now because I knew something I shouldn't know?"
"No, no, I'm glad you're okay. If you have any problems, just tell us."
Xiaoxue shook her head like a rattle. She didn't have as much ability as Nanhuan, she just hoped to be safe.
Nan Huan nodded, "My mission has been completed. I still need to ask the NPC for clues. We'll talk later."
Although they had been rewarded points for cleaning the doctor's room, Nan Huan still wanted to find the maid who had given them the task and ask for clues. Besides, Nan also had his own selfish motives.
There was so much noise on the third floor just now, but there was no sound at all in the housekeeper's room.
Maybe the maid knows something about the butler.
