In the dimly lit room, the old butler sat upright in the old carved mahogany chair, with a set of antique tea utensils on the table in front of him.
He looked relaxed, picked up the small teacup with his right hand, brought it to his lips, took a small sip, and narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was savoring the flavor of the tea.
Just then, he heard light footsteps at the door. He looked up, put down his teacup without a word, and tossed a number plate to Yu Xiangnan, who was still wearing an invisibility cloak.
Yu Xiangnan reacted quickly, firmly catching the number plate that flew towards him with lightning speed between two fingers.
The second target is... number one.
Wow, what a unique NPC!
Yu Xiangnan didn't stay there for long and quickly left the initial room.
Outside the room, Jiang Ye and Bai Yuan were still locked in a fierce battle.
Yu Xiangnan successfully slipped away, but unfortunately, the moment he received the card, the outline of the target was revealed.
She was receiving the card while keeping an eye on Jiang Ye and Bai Yuan's movements outside. Her attention was a little distracted, and before she could see it clearly, the outline disappeared instantly.
Due to the rules, she had to endure a long five-minute wait. She couldn't just stand there like an idiot, wearing an invisibility cloak.
In this game, everyone is a hunter, but also a target to be hunted. If you are not careful and are discovered, you will lose points.
So she moved very quietly toward a nearby shady spot, her eyes scanning her surroundings warily.
Yu Xiangnan arrived outside the manor's main building. By this time, the blizzard had subsided somewhat; the snowflakes were no longer so fierce, but were only falling sporadically. The gale had also calmed down considerably, no longer whistling sharply.
She looked up at the main building standing in front of her, enveloped in a hazy snowfall.
The building has five floors, a neat appearance, and windows arranged in an orderly manner on each floor.
Wait, five floors?!
She had walked through it before; the stairs only led to the fourth floor. From the inside, the layout of the fourth floor was no different from the other floors, with a flat ceiling and evenly distributed lighting.
If she hadn't known beforehand that the building had five floors, she would have almost assumed that the fourth floor was the top floor.
What secrets are hidden on the fifth floor?
Yu Xiangnan guessed that the manor owner the old housekeeper mentioned was most likely on the fifth floor, since she had almost searched the entire manor and had not seen the so-called manor owner.
If the manor owner isn't on the "fifth floor," is he hiding in some basement or secret space?
She planned to find a suitable opportunity to investigate how to get to the fifth floor. But she absolutely could not linger outside at this moment.
Large snowflakes fell softly, and as soon as they touched her, they would quickly outline a very obvious shape, instantly revealing her hiding place.
Yu Xiangnan quickly brushed the snow off his body and, taking advantage of the absence of anyone, slipped back into the building. Just then, Player 1's silhouette reappeared.
The location is in... the wine cellar!
Yu Xiangnan rushed towards the wine cellar.
Stepping into the estate's wine cellar, you are greeted by an aroma of oak barrels, aged wine, and dampness.
Under the dim light, the walls built of huge stones are full of traces of time, and water droplets slide down, forming puddles on the ground.
Rows of oak barrels stand neatly arranged, their surfaces a deep, rich color, and the faint sounds of fermentation can be heard within. In a corner, a wooden staircase winds its way to the attic, where rare, dusty bottles of wine are displayed, their labels faded and illegible.
Strange, there's no one inside. Have they already left?
Yu Xiangnan searched the vast wine cellar thoroughly, leaving no corner unchecked.
She bent down to examine the narrow gap behind the oak barrel and the shadowy corner, but after a round, she could only see the wine shimmering slightly in the dim light, without seeing a single person.
At this moment, just 5 minutes after the last perspective, the outline of the target object reappeared.
Um?
What's going on?
Why is the outline showing as a wine barrel this time?
Once she locked onto her target, she quickly ran towards the wine barrel whose outline had just appeared, arriving at it in the blink of an eye.
At first glance, this barrel is no different from the rows of oak barrels around it, with the same deep color, rough texture, and rich aroma of wine.
But as she bent down and scanned the barrel inch by inch, a very subtle star mark came into view.
The symbol is almost invisible unless you look closely.
At that moment, one of the barrels, perhaps sensing a gaze following it closely, suddenly trembled.
Yu Xiangnan reacted immediately and swung his shovel!
"ah!!!"
The barrel was suddenly struck by the small, broken shovel, and instantly let out a shrill scream.
In an instant, a flash of light appeared, and a gaunt player materialized on the spot.
Upon seeing this, Yu Xiangnan immediately tried to deal with the person without hesitation, but the player reacted extremely quickly, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
But how could she be willing to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? The moment the player transformed into human form, she successfully opened his personal information panel and saw his name.
Immediately afterwards, she quickly took out the [Qian Yuan Spirit Seeking Plate], silently recited the name in her heart, and imagined its specific appearance in her mind.
The pointer on the spirit-finding compass spun wildly, emitting a faint buzzing sound.
It quickly pointed in a fixed direction.
She swiftly traversed the wine cellar following the direction the pointer indicated. As she drew closer to her target, the spirit-finding compass reacted more intensely, the pointer trembling almost frantically.
Unexpectedly, the person turned into a pebble the size of an apple and was frantically fleeing, completely unaware that danger was approaching.
A cold glint flashed in Yu Xiangnan's eyes. This time, he directly placed a "death mark" on him!
She accepted the 50 points!
The player suddenly noticed a dripping black skull appearing above his head, his heart leaped into his throat, and he panicked.
I thought I could escape this time, but I was discovered again.
Knowing he had nowhere to escape, he gritted his teeth and decided to confront Yu Xiangnan head-on.
Moreover, how exactly does this person manage to remain invisible, even more so than him?!
He had hidden himself so well that he was indistinguishable from the objects he had copied, even smelling the same. He had also used special tools to conceal his figure, yet this invisible man could disappear in such a short time, which was truly unbelievable to him!
Yu Xiangnan didn't give him any chance to think and said, "I'm blind, I can't hear!"
The next second, the [Grim Reaper's Eye] automatically appeared on his face.
The player's current health is:
The sunglasses... oh no, the Grim Reaper's Eyes, besides reflecting health changes in real time and accurately, can also increase the values of the Grim Reaper's basic skill "Death Mark" by 30%.
Taking advantage of the Death Eye buff, Yu Xiangnan pressed his advantage, using the invisibility effect in conjunction with the small broken shovel to give him almost no chance to breathe.
