Chapter 40 Princess Castle Rules Strange Stories (20) What is Ye Guang's virtue,...
In the game, Gao Mengtang didn't know that he had eaten an ugly orange, which triggered a debate about truth and disguise. Four players and an NPC No Man's Land Prince were circling around Xiao Mengtang's body.
Xiao Mengtang has completely turned into a mineral sculpture, with a layer of gray in the light blue.
"Brother, what's going on?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Gao Geng: "He is you."
Gao Mengtang: "I know. But why did I turn into a sculpture after I died?"
Gao Geng looked calm and asked him, "What else?"
Gao Mengtang: ...
Obviously, Gao Geng knew more. Perhaps it was due to the limitation of his NPC status, or perhaps he had experienced something that caused him to lose his memory. No matter how Gao Mengtang asked, Gao Geng's answer was similar.
If Gao Mengtang died, he would turn into a mineral sculpture.
Since he has never died and is unlikely to commit suicide, this matter cannot be verified for the time being.
What did Gao Geng mean when he said “I will wait for you”?
The familiar system prompt sounded, Gao Mengtang opened the panel and took a look. No new props were obtained, nor were any new achievements unlocked.
Instead, there was an extra line of small notes on his [Basic Information] panel.
【Identity Number】000 Blind
[Note] A true moon creature. What virtue does the night light have? It dies and then reproduces.
Xiao Mengtang's body was like a piece of clear and clean jade, glowing faintly.
*
The massacre continues.
Gao Mengtang walked out of the underground vault. The salty and humid sea breeze mixed with the smell of blood blew into his nostrils. The effect of the eye-protecting blueberry gradually faded, and his vision became blurry again.
For the first time, Gao Mengtang was glad that he couldn't see clearly.
At midnight, the screams finally stopped. The NPC looked satisfied, with no signs of distortion. They reunited on the beach, rode the shark roller coaster, and returned to the deep sea.
On the fifth day of entering the dungeon, they slept soundly.
When they woke up in the morning, they could smell the refreshing fragrance of flowers. The castle steward said to them excitedly: "On the sixth day, let's decorate the ballroom together! Guests, come and participate in this grand ceremony!"
He Lun breathed a sigh of relief: "It's finally over. After leaving the dungeon, I want to eat hot pot!"
Gao Mengtang also cheered: "Great!"
He Lun's smile froze: "Brother, can we have a shabu-shabu pot this time?"
"Don't worry about the double-flavored hot pot yet," Wei Wei lazily sat up, leaning against the bedside table and filling his cigarette, "The dispute is not over yet. Has everyone found a partner to dance with?"
There are 8 players left, 1 prince who is Gao Mengtang's dance partner, and 6 princesses. All in all, there is one less NPC to attack than players.
Wei Wei filled the tobacco and took a puff. "I saw last night that the gangster didn't have a partner. We should keep an eye on our partners and not give them any chances to take advantage of us. Also, stay away from Qin Xishuang. Based on my understanding of him, this playboy will not be very quiet."
The players were arranged to hang ribbons. Gao Mengtang, who had limited vision and was exempted from labor, sat on a soft chair in the small restaurant, holding his rabbit and drinking water from a teacup.
Footsteps came and went, people were mixed in. There was a sweet floral scent at the tip of my nose.
Suddenly, someone took Gao Mengtang's hand and gently kissed the back of her hand: "My beautiful guest, please follow me."
"Brother?" Gao Mengtang asked.
"Um."
He was led out of the small restaurant, making many twists and turns along the way.
Gao Mengtang: "Brother, where are you taking me?"
Strangely, Gao Geng did not answer him, but instead held his forearm tightly, as if afraid that he would break free.
"elder brother?"
"Yeah, I'm here."
The hand that was holding the forearm tightened a little, and four bright red pinch marks appeared on the skin.
No, that's not right. This is not Gao Geng. Gao Mengtang twisted his arm hard, but the other person was much stronger than him, and his movements were rough, dragging him into a room.
The man swung him hard, and Gao Mengtang almost fell on the carpet. He supported himself on a cabinet beside him and slowly stood up: "Qin Xishuang."
"As expected of you." The deep and thick voice gradually became ethereal and crisp, completely Qin Xishuang's voice. In his palm was a pile of ashes from burning paper.
Qin Xishuang raised her hand, looked at the black ash on her palm, and sighed: "The skill scroll [Sweet Illusion] will only work on you for less than three minutes."
[Sweet Illusion]: Only effective for one person.
After using it, the person being cast will mistake the scroll user for someone close to them. The duration depends on the personal characteristics of the caster and the person being cast, usually 3h-24h
Qin Xishuang exhaled a breath, and the ashes scattered everywhere. The sweet floral scent in the air was almost pungent.
"I use [Sweet Illusion] on other people, and it lasts for 72 hours. For you, it only lasts for three minutes. Haha."
Gao Mengtang fumbled quietly, trying to take out an eye-protecting blueberry, but his arm was held down tightly by Qin Xishuang.
"What's the use of eating blueberries?" Qin Xishuang asked with a smile, "Even if you can see clearly, you can't escape from my hands."
Gao Mengtang: ...That makes sense.
The difference between his fighting power and Qin Xishuang's was a little over a billion. Qin Xishuang would not give him the opportunity to use props in front of him.
Gao Mengtang calmed down instead. He felt around and found a chair, then sat down calmly: "Tell me, turn me over here, what's the matter?"
"Let's not rush into the topic yet," Qin Xishuang also dragged a chair over and sat opposite Gao Mengtang, "The way you addressed me just now is very interesting. Brother?"
Gao Mengtang's heart trembled. Outsiders only knew that the Prince of No Man's Land would instantly have a good impression of him, but they didn't know that this NPC Prince was his biological brother.
"Is this a playful way of calling each other, or is the Prince of No Man's Land really your brother?" Qin Xishuang rested her elbows on her knees and leaned closer to look at Gao Mengtang's expression.
There was no fluctuation on the delicate face, and no emotion could be seen in the misty eyes.
Qin Xishuang shook her head regretfully: "You are so beautiful, but you are like an ice cube, without any lively expression. You were talking and laughing in front of Wei Wei and the others, weren't you?"
Gao Mengtang: ...
"Do you hate me that much?"
"If you don't get to the point, Wei Wei will come looking for me when he finds out that I'm not here." Gao Mengtang said coldly.
Qin Xishuang sneered: "Wei Wei? You use him to threaten me, how sad. I just don't want to deal with him, otherwise, Wei Wei would be a corpse now."
The bedroom was filled with bundles of skill scrolls.
For players, every skill scroll is a rare treasure, because skills are a good thing.
Ways to acquire skills: improving specialization, identity card advancement, and skill scrolls.
The first two methods have a limit on the number of skills you can obtain, but there is no limit on the number of skills you can obtain with skill scrolls. If [Ancestral Remains] is the gold in the Black Tower game, then skill scrolls are gems that can only be obtained by chance.
These treasures, coveted by everyone, were scattered on the carpet like piles of waste paper.
With so many suitors, every Valentine's Day, Qin Xishuang receives so many gifts that she can't hold back. All of them are from unknown lickspittles.
With a creak, Qin Xishuang stood up from the soft chair and kicked away the skill scroll at his feet. His room was a mess, with silk being dragged to the floor, pillows thrown everywhere, and the dress he had changed out of thrown casually on the chair. The curtains were drawn tightly, not a single ray of sunlight could get in.
The butterfly that looks bright and beautiful is actually a beauty in a messy room. Qin Xishuang waded through the messy pile of sundries, came to the bedside table, and took out a roll of yellowed paper.
"I called you here to ask you to sign your name." Qin Xishuang said as he took out a blue-green gemstone-encrusted feather pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote a few strokes, leaving his name in cursive script.
Even a three-year-old child knows that you can't just sign your name casually, as it might be a contract to sell yourself. Gao Mengtang said nothing. He tried to use a mental connection to call He Lun and Bai Jie, but the distance was too far and the connection failed.
"Gao Geng, Gao Huan, Gao Yaxin." Qin Xishuang uttered these three names leisurely.
Behind him, Gao Mengtang's eyes widened instantly.
Gao Huan and Gao Yaxin are his father and mother.
"When it comes to information search capabilities, no one is better than us [Dark Crossing Flash Butterfly]. If Wei Wei can investigate, how can I not investigate?"
Qin Xishuang signed her name, stepped gracefully over two piles of dirty clothes, walked to Gao Mengtang's chair, and handed the yellowed paper under Gao Mengtang's nose: "Sign it. I will tell you the real cause of death of Gao Huan and Gao Yaxin."
The bedroom had not been ventilated or exposed to sunlight for a long time. The air was turbid and filled with the scent of flowers. Every time I breathed, it felt like mucus was blocking my throat.
Gao Mengtang had a wooden face and did not move: "What is this?"
Qin Xishuang answered irrelevantly: "Mengtang, you should know that if I want to kill you, there are hundreds of ways. If you sign it, you will not die."
Just because you can’t die doesn’t mean you can live happily.
"You don't want to sign?" Qin Xishuang sighed. He pried Gao Mengtang's hand open and let him touch the blue-green gem-studded feather pen.
"Do you feel it? This is the tip of the pen, and it's very sharp." Qin Xishuang said, and then she exerted force suddenly, pressing one of Gao Mengtang's hands firmly on the armrest of the chair.
"I'll count to five. If you don't sign, this pen will pierce the back of your hand."
Gao Mengtang tried to break free reflexively, but although Qin Xishuang looked pretty and delicate, she was incredibly strong. She held his arm down as if it were welded from steel bars, and no matter how hard he tried, it didn't move at all.
"five."
The nails dug three bloody holes on Qin Xishuang's arm, but Qin Xishuang seemed not to feel the pain and counted down slowly.
"Four."
Gao Mengtang's expression did not show panic, but his lips were tightly pursed. Qin Xishuang smiled slightly, he wanted to see this face screaming.
"three."
The tip of the feather pen pressed against the skin on the back of my hand, and a chill spread through my body.
"two."
Qin Xishuang held the feather pen, pointed it at a purple vein, and raised it high—
"one."
Bang! The door was kicked open, and the dark green tentacles came smashing over like a meteor hammer. Qin Xishuang dodged and fell backwards with the chair.
Gao Mengtang's head hit the floor, and he felt dizzy and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. His vision was already blurry, and now there were several black circles and spinning golden stars.
"Chief Qin is truly upright," Wei Wei's voice came from the doorway, "The leaders of the four major camps came out in person to snatch people from me. Do you have something on your mind?"
