Host Refuses Treatment

Light a candle, and the dark shadow sneaked into the lower level silently.

When she stepped down the last step, she clearly felt the salty moisture of the sea water against her face, as well as the disgusting rancid smell.

She raised the candle in her hand and fumbled slowly, the fire illuminating the surroundings, and soon she found what she wanted.

I didn't pay attention to it. I thought it was a huge stroke. When I looked at it carefully, I realized that it was a huge puzzle.

The picture on the puzzle shows the appearance of an octopus-shaped giant sea monster swallowing the island. It is very realistic, but there are a few pieces missing on this puzzle. Sombra puts a fragment in his hand up and gestures, and finds that it is just right.

The puzzle was solved, and Sombra carefully counted the missing parts of the entire puzzle, a total of ten pieces were missing.

It also means that in addition to the one in her hand, there are nine more to find.

It's good to have a clue. Obviously, because of this accident, she has been one step ahead of them. This is a good start. Without those who are holding back, she is more able to let go.

"Ding--"

Suddenly, there was a harsh bell from above, and the black shadow's heart tightened. This was the signal that the housekeeper called them.

...

"It seems that something has happened, which is really a pity. I was going to have a good chat with you, but now it doesn't seem to be necessary, Mr. Li Xin, just say it directly, otherwise, you won't need it anymore."

Threats, stark threats, but Li Xin had to give in.

"Kaonee's blessing." Li Xin almost popped these words from his teeth.

"Kaone?" The goddess of snow and winter in Greek mythology, but Gu Qinglan had no relevant memory in his mind, which means that the original owner did not get this treasure.

It seems that someone wants to frame the original owner, or that person is actually the true owner of "Kaonee's Blessing".

"Who told you this?" Gu Qinglan then asked.

"Lin Feng from the team next door."

Lin Feng? Which one is it again? Gu Qinglan thought for a long time before he found the young man named Lin Feng in the depths of his memories. He looked very gloomy. When the original owner saw him at the first glance, he passed him from his spare tire list. Then I didn't pay attention to him again.

Unexpectedly, she was the first to be stabbed in the back by this kid before she could trouble him. She thought she had no grievances with him. Why?

"I see, let's go downstairs. The butler should have something very important to tell us." Gu Qinglan put away the momentum of his body, and Li Xin suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Who are you?" Li Xin asked quickly when Gu Qinglan pushed the door.

"Me? I'm Xiyan, Mr. Li won't get Alzheimer's disease in advance, so forget me so soon?"

"You are not a swan goose, you are not like a swan goose, I don't mean anything else, just want to be sure." Li Xin warned: "If you are for other purposes, we can well keep the water out of the river. "

"Mr. Li's words are very interesting. Who else can I be if I'm not Huyan? If I am really something else, then Mr. Li thinks I will let you go?" Gu Qinglan smiled, the meaning of what he said was vague. "The monsters in the game, but won't let the players go~"

"Touch!" The door closed, and Li Xin's heart trembled.

...

"Ladies and gentlemen, please use it." The butler prepared cakes and black tea, and put a portion for everyone.

Luo Ninghan didn't show up, but the housekeeper prepared nothing more or less, and happened to be one for each person.

Gu Qinglan was the only one who picked up the pastry and started eating without any complaints. I have to say that this small snack is really delicious. She ate it happily, and the corners of her mouth twitched when others watched it.

Gu Qinglan felt the silent gaze around him. Probably in this case, no one is still in the mood to move these things, but... She looked up at a corner, and the person saw that she looked up and immediately avoided. Lost his eyes.

Gu Qinglan's eyes lit up, followed by silently looking away, she thought she was not there!

The person she saw felt tight, could it be recognized? Impossible, even teammates who get along day and night can't recognize themselves, but how can people who spend the night with themselves recognize themselves?

Perhaps she hadn't noticed it herself. After changing to another identity, she had been looking for a figure subconsciously. She had been separated for a while, and she had been uneasy.

That stupid woman, who has been calculated by others, doesn't know what's going on, and can't see it for a while. What if the person who wants to kill her is calculated again?

What if she can't see the familiar face after this convening?

In just a few minutes, she thought a lot, especially when everyone was almost there, but she was panicked before seeing that person.

And when this person finally came down from the second floor, she felt extremely relieved again.

What is going on here? Luo Ninghan was holding someone else's face, so she couldn't see her look. Only she knew the entanglement in her heart.

Does this woman named Xiyan possess the power of charm? How else can I make myself so concerned about her?

"Steward, you brought us here, do you have anything to say?" Peng Chen looked at the steward solemnly, and said.

"Indeed, because one of you found one of the important items for customs clearance ahead of time, we plan ahead. Before explaining the rules of the game, please listen to me to tell a story." The butler stood respectfully and whispered softly. road.

"It is said that a long, long time ago, this castle was a place where the duke was on vacation. One day, the duke brought his attendants on a boat. Suddenly, mist filled the sea and the helmsman lost his direction. Gradually, the duke realized that they were no longer there. On the original route."

"The fog on the sea is very thick, even if the helmsman is experienced, he can't drive the ship to the original channel under this condition."

"At this moment, a monster appeared. It was a giant octopus-shaped sea monster. The Duke was so frightened that he thought he would be buried in the belly of the sea monster like this, but he didn't expect that the sea monster suddenly vomited. "

"It told the Duke that it can let him go, but the only requirement is that the Duke must bring 100 people over to enjoy it every month."

"The Duke agreed, and the sea monster sent him back, and set the isolated island as the place for the transaction."

"In the first few months, the Duke could barely provide for others, but then 100 people disappeared every month. This attracted the king's attention. He arrested the Duke and asked why."

"The Duke had no choice but to tell everything. The king sent an army and a demon hunter to the isolated island. At the time of the next transaction, the sea monster was subdued and sealed up. The sea monster was very angry and said before being sealed. It will come to the world again in three hundred years, when it will swallow the entire island."

"So 300 years later, is it now?" Peng Chen said with an ugly expression.

"Yes." The butler was interrupted by Peng Chen and didn't care. "The 300-year period that the sea monster said was 15 days later."

Swallowing the entire island, there is only one dead word for them who cannot escape from this island.

"Then, is there a way we can avoid...or defeat the sea monster?" asked Liu Xinyi, the woman who followed Peng Chen and betrayed Luo Ninghan.

"Yes." The housekeeper nodded and said: "The demon hunter back then couldn't kill the sea monster directly. He was very guilty. Before he left, he left a mysterious picture. Legend has it that there is a picture that can avoid this disaster. method."

"Where is that picture?" Peng Chen asked impatiently.

"This picture is located in a place in the old castle, but there is also an unfortunate news to tell everyone that... this picture was destroyed when it was passed down, and it is now incomplete."

Hearing the words of the butler, most people's hearts shook, but they were also expected. After all, it was the last game, and the difficulty couldn't be lower.

"It's incomplete? So what should we do? We can't wait to die here, right?" Chen Zhimin looked at Gu Qinglan, then looked at the housekeeper, there are wolves in front of them, and tigers behind. That's how it feels right?

"Don't worry, the broken fragments will fall on this island. As long as you find all the fragments and fill it up, the picture will be available." The butler explained.

"Can you give us some hints then? It's impossible for us to look around like a headless fly?" Peng Chen stared at the butler's smiling face and asked.

"Of course, in the darkest part of this isolated island, it is your first destination." The butler said: "After that, there will be clues to remind you."

After all, the butler gave Luo Ninghan a meaningful look at the crowd.

"At night, danger and opportunity coexist."

"I hope you guys are lucky."

...

The steward left, leaving two key clues.

After Gu Qinglan finished eating the cake, she picked up the napkin on the side and wiped the corner of her mouth.

Seeing how delicious she was eating, Luo Ninghan unconsciously dug a piece of cake and put it in his mouth. It was so sweet... Luo Ninghan frowned.

The more calm Gu Qinglan was, the more frightened Li Xin and Chen Zhimin were. They increasingly suspect that Xi Yan has been replaced by something in the game!

"Everyone." Peng Chen glanced at everyone present, and then fixed his eyes on the captains of the other two teams. "Time is very tight. Although the final reward is very attractive, our primary goal should not be to survive first. Is it? So, cooperate."

The game does not stipulate that only one person will survive in the end. Such a big island, it is impossible to turn it over in fifteen days with a team alone, so cooperation is a good choice.

Li Xin thought for a while with the other team leader, and they all agreed with Peng Chen's proposal.

"In that case, let's divide the work and cooperate."
