Chapter 191 Be careful with the housekeeper
"Does this mean I can clear the level just by completing the exorcism?"
Both envelopes had disappeared, and the players discussed the rules with each other and then talked about the conditions for passing the level.
"It's definitely not that simple. You'll encounter all sorts of problems during a 100% exorcism."
"That's nonsense, Christy."
Charles, who had been quietly watching Lin Jiu eat, suddenly said something to Christie.
Christy:?
After a brief moment of confusion, Christie asked in confusion: "Shouldn't you be targeting Ivan?"
Ivan, who is not good at thinking and plans to listen to their discussion quietly:?
Why did you suddenly cue me?
I thought about it and didn't say anything.
Ivan was very puzzled and Charles was speechless.
Lin Jiu suddenly said from the side: "You two should just fight."
Ivan/Charles: ...
Don't worry about it.
Lin Jiu felt bored by the silence between the two. He put down his knife and fork. The classical music in the restaurant made him tap his fingers on the table.
"There shouldn't be anything dangerous tonight. If you hear any unusual noises at night... Hey, those three newcomers, don't go out if you can." Lin Jiu said the latter part, paused slightly, looked at the three new players, and reminded them.
In response to Lin Jiu's instructions, the three of them nodded continuously like chicks pecking at rice.
"I feel that the senior doesn't seem like the type to let the junior take risks." Christie said while sitting lazily on the chair, touching his chin.
Hicks nodded, agreeing with Christy's words.
"It seems that the seniors I've met in C-rank dungeons so far have been very caring towards the juniors." Reginald said softly.
What he said was not without reason. In the copy of the Weird Security Company, Reginald was finally able to survive because the captain protected him with his own life.
He was depressed for a long time because of this.
"After all, he is on the same team with us, so we should be careful of others."
Lin Jiu said, his eyes turned and looked at the locker in the corner of the restaurant.
There is a bell on it.
He didn't say anything, just turned his head and stared at the bell for a while.
The veteran players noticed Lin Jiu's gaze movement, and almost simultaneously turned their heads to look over, instantly understanding what Lin Jiu meant.
However, the three new players didn't react. Seeing that everyone was looking at the bell, they followed suit. Then one of them asked, "Are you going to ring the bell?"
Lin Jiu withdrew his gaze at this time.
"I've already finished eating anyway."
Todd happened to come down from upstairs when the housekeeper was cleaning the restaurant.
The players returned to the living room. Todd probably didn't notice anything and frowned slightly.
Seeing that the players had finished their dinner, Todd did not immediately let the players patrol according to the previous groups.
He glanced at the time and seemed to be planning to wait until later in the night.
"Put on your equipment first." Todd said, motioning everyone to open the silver boxes in their hands.
Lin Jiu opened the box and saw a set of clothes inside, and a few things were placed inside the box.
Five tubes of holy water, a silver dagger, two crosses and a bell ornament.
"That bell is a magic-detecting bell. You can wear it on your wrist or neck. It's used to detect abnormal magic. When a monster appears around, it will light up and make a sound that only we can hear." Todd explained.
"As for that piece of clothing, it is made of special fabric and must be worn during the mission." Todd did not explain in detail about the work clothes.
The butler came out of the restaurant at this time.
"Thank you for your hard work. Today's dinner is delicious." Todd gave the butler a polite smile when he saw him.
"As long as everyone is satisfied with the food."
The butler laughed twice and seemed to be in a good mood.
"What are your plans for now...?" the butler asked.
"We will start working later. If possible, please try not to leave the room after returning to it. If there is anything unusual, please call us immediately." Todd said at the end with a serious look on his face.
The butler nodded: "Of course, I will."
Probably not wanting to disturb them, the butler said a few words to Todd and then went back to the second floor.
When the door closed, Todd signaled the players to follow him.
The guest rooms are also very spacious, and eleven people were not crowded at all in Todd's room.
After setting up a soundproof barrier with special props, Todd checked the inside of the room again and found nothing wrong.
"Before we begin tonight's patrol, I'll tell you the code."
The guild has a special code, but it changes every once in a while, and every time a team goes out, the code given by the guild is different.
The code Todd tells the player is:
Is the moon full?
[It looks delicious.]
It was a very simple code, and there was no complicated conversation content.
When Lin Jiu heard this code, he suddenly thought of mooncakes.
Mooncakes...I feel like eating some.
When he was in the Fourth Hospital, the mooncakes he ate were all made by the doctors and nurses themselves, and they were delicious.
I don't know if Qin Chuan will do it...
Qin Chuan, who is currently in Longguo’s live broadcast room in the real world: Ah cut!
After Todd asked the players to remember the code, he asked them to be careful of the butler and Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
The guild also specifically reminded players to be careful of the Smiths, but I don't know why Todd asked players to be careful of the butler.
It seems that Todd has been avoiding communication between the butler and the players from the very beginning.
Lin Jiu didn't think this was his illusion.
It seems that Todd feels that something is wrong with the housekeeper.
The old players looked at each other. Although the new players didn't understand, they nodded in agreement because they trusted Todd.
"For safety's sake, go change your clothes first. We'll be conducting our first patrol in ten minutes."
The uniforms provided by the guild are made of special fabrics. They are very elastic and will not affect the exorcists' combat. They are also filled with magical power and can even heal wounds and remove pollution.
The players left one after another. Todd left Reginald and three new players behind, and asked them to change their clothes, equip themselves with weapons, and then go on patrol directly.
It just so happened that Todd also needed to change his clothes.
We are all men anyway, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Lin Jiu's room is next to Todd's, and Ivan's room is opposite him.
Charles was secretly delighted because he was arranged to sit next to Lin Jiu, and he was also very happy that Ivan was not so "lucky" this time.
Ivan just wanted to say: The distance between next door and the opposite side is not much different...
There are eleven rooms for eleven people, and each room is quite spacious, not to mention that the area where Todd and the players are located is only half of the second floor. You can imagine how big this castle is.
