Chapter 663: The Truth
If the curse was really caused by Pai Isagurus, wipe the murder weapon "Golden Magic Cube" and worship it in front of the tomb can relieve the curse? What kind of strange brain circuit is this? Isn't this a naked mockery?
Even though he had seen many strange things, Ling Ze still felt that he could not understand. Is this kind of brain circuit too strange?
"How did you lose that golden magic cube? Was it stolen by someone? It's impossible that I escaped with my own hands and feet, right?"
Asuna continued to ask questions with her good habit of digging into the bottom line, but the answer to this question was actually obvious. The person who stole the "golden magic cube" was among the people they had met before.
"Is this really the case? You said before that the boss on this layer is a magic cube that is like a hand-feet. That is not what the golden magic cube becomes after the monster is transformed, right?!"
Asuna has a lot of ideas. Don’t say it, she is quite reasonable and justified.
"It's a pity that this is not the case. In fact, we have seen people who took the block away, but I didn't say it."
Kirito's answer obviously verified Ling Ze's idea. He had keenly noticed that there was something wrong with an NPC before.
"That is to say, among the butler, maid, gardener, chef, two disciples, and wine merchants who entered and left the mansion, someone secretly hid the golden magic cube?"
At this moment, even Klein understood what was going on. Of course, he still didn't know who hid or stole it, but at least he had a rough range.
"The wine merchants who are not present can be ruled out. The two disciples were not present at the first time. The gardener just helped dig a hole and buried the body, so the only persons who stole were the housekeeper, maid, and one of the chefs. I guessed right?"
Asuna raised her chin, looking like I was impeccable, while Kirito cooperated and applauded.
"It's a maid."
Ling Ze directly gave the answer, which made Kirito look at him in surprise. Obviously, Ling Ze guessed the answer correctly.
"So amazing! Brother Ling Ze! How did you guess it?!"
Kirito spoke out in surprise. He really didn't expect that someone could guess the answer to the riddle, because the key clues were all in the subsequent tasks, and now they had no clues.
"Because that maid, when we mentioned Mr. Sailon and Mr. Paisagurus, had the strongest reaction. It can be seen that her relationship with these two people is different from the others. It is not a simple maid and employer relationship, and such an NPC will obviously not exist in vain."
Ling Ze explained, which surprised everyone.
"It is indeed as Brother Lingze said, from the scene of the murder of Paisagurus, the one who took away the golden magic block and hid it under the ground of this mansion was the former maid Saiano whom we just asked about.
In fact, she is a genius who plays puzzle games. Pai Isagurus is planning to let her be the heir to the puzzle king. After seeing Mr. Sai Isagurus killing Mr. Sai Isagurus, Miss Sai Isagurus, did not immediately report him, but instead hid the murder weapon because Mr. Sai Isagurus and Miss Sai Isagurus are actually lovers."
Kirito said in amazement that the maid Miss Saiyano did have a very special relationship with Mr. Sailong and Mr. Paishagurus, and she was actually the inducement to Mr. Sailong's killing Mr. Paishagurus.
It was precisely because of her genius that Mr. Paisagurus had replaced his heir, which directly angered Mr. Sailon, causing him to kill Mr. Paisagurus in his rage, causing everything to happen.
Of course, the matter must be wrong with the murderer Sailong, and the maid Miss Saiyano is not wrong with the excellence.
"Ten years ago, Mr. Sailong was thirty years old, and Miss Saiyano was about twenty-five. She couldn't bear to tell her lover that she was the murderer, but she could not pretend that this had not happened. So Miss Saiyano sealed the golden magic blocks on the ground of the lord's mansion, and then placed the key to the place in the secret villa of another city, Seribas, and he hoped that Sailong would atone for his sins."
Kirito then spoke, and after he stopped, Asuna urged him to continue to tell. I wonder if all the girls were particularly interested in this kind of story. Asuna was obviously a little fascinated.
"What the hell is going on? Why hide the key in the secret villa of another city? What does this have to do with atonement?"
Klein also spoke out and urged, but he was more concerned about the reason. He sealed the "golden magic cube" underground in this city and then sealed the key in a villa in another city. What is the significance of this operation?
"It's like that. There are a lot of puzzle games in the maze of the Lord's Mansion. Without the prompts of a book in the study of the Secret Villa, you can't reach the deepest part.
Miss Saiano has been waiting for Mr. Saiano to admit his sins to her and ask for help.
By that time, she planned to tell the existence of the secret villa. If she wanted to retrieve the golden magic cube, Mr. Sailon had to work hard to study the books in the secret villa and then break through the underground maze. In fact, it was a test prepared to inherit the status of Yu Yu and the lord."
Kirito then told the follow-up story. At this time, Asuna had already begun to learn from it and began to follow the plot later.
"As a result, that Mr. Sailong... never challenged the test by himself, but just kept hiring others to...."
Asuna was a little speechless. From this point of view, Mr. Sailon's sexy operation was really enough to make his blood pressure soar.
"Not only that, he will paralyze the players he hired and kidnap them directly, and then lock them into the maze of the lord's mansion, asking players to help recycle the golden magic blocks. Miss Saiano, who knows his intention, will use Stakion's secret path to help the players."
Kirito's words obviously made Asuna even more speechless. This "Lord of Stakion" Mr. Sailong is really "despicable" and deserves to be cursed!
"That's how it is, hurry up and finish it."
Kirito spread his hands, obviously he was helpless about it. This series of tasks can be said to be the most bloody task below the tenth level and the most bloody task that makes people's blood pressure soar.
"Let's go."
Ling Ze nodded, and then the group simply set off.
The second city on the sixth floor, "Sribas", is a beautiful city that looks like a certain southern European style. There are many bridges on the river in the middle of the city, which reminds people of the main block of the fourth floor "Robiya". Unfortunately, there is no gondola on the river.
But the scenery here is still very beautiful. The black water surface reflects countless shining orange street lights, which is a unique beauty that only exists in the fantasy world. When he first entered the city, Ling Ze and the others stopped for a long time.
Mr. Paisagurus's "Secret Villa", located at the edge of the southern street of "Sribas".
The river running through the "Sribass" begins with a waterfall spurt from a large pillar standing on the northern end of the outer periphery of Ain Grandet, and finally flows into a lake in the middle of the floor.
The buildings are built on the slender streets on both sides of the river, connected by countless bridges, and buildings with roofs are also built above several bridges. This is the characteristic "home bridge" of "Sribas". Mr. Paisagurus's "secret villa" is a building called "home bridge".
The Villa Paisagurus, located on the bridge, looks very beautiful from the outside, but the interior has completely turned into ruins. In the Villa Paisagurus, there are monsters with "soul system". Before discovering the next clues, they must be fought with them. It is obviously not very friendly to Asuna.
However, with the encouragement of his companions, Asuna came in together. The first floor of the "Secret Villa" was a normal bridge, and the railings on both sides rose high, forming countless arches to support the living part on the second floor. After seeing the "Starkion" who was a "building house" from beginning to end, she really felt that it was quite beautiful.
The road leading to the second floor was only a small staircase. Everyone walked up the stairs quickly and stood in front of an ancient gate.
It was a wooden door that looked quite solid. Six metal digital turntables were set on the surface of the door, each engraved with numbers from 0 to 9. It is a password lock that can be often seen in the real world. Obviously, violent lock unlocking is not supported here, but a password must be found.
"There must be a million kinds of this kind of arrangement, right? Even if you keep sleeping, you will have to take several days to guess one by one."
Asuna fiddled with her for a few times, then she quickly gave up. Everyone looked at Kirito, the "closed beta player".
"The process of obtaining this password is very troublesome. I hope that the password will not be changed after sao starts to operate it."
Kirito lived up to expectations, and he decisively walked forward to prepare to unlock the lock, but he was not particularly sure.
"Crack!"
A clear sound of unlocking sound made everyone feel relieved. Obviously, no one wants to run around in trouble anymore. It is great to be able to open the door directly.
The door of the "Ruins Villa" was opened, and there was darkness inside. The cold and humid air flowed out as the door opened. This atmosphere immediately made Asuna tremble.
"Click."
After Ling Ze and the others entered the villa, the door behind them automatically closed. This was a very classic scene.
“On the light.”
Asuna asked in a low voice, this was not an excessive request, because the villa was indeed very dark.
Kirito lit the oil lamp, which was specially prepared. He broke into someone's house with a torch, and it felt strange.
So Ling Ze, who was "not short of money", changed the oil lamp directly. As the oil lamp turned on, the orange light expanded to illuminate the surroundings. After the light, it was indeed much more comfortable.
This villa is quite spacious and is worthy of being the villa of the Lord of "Starkion". All kinds of furniture are expensive, but the corners of the ceiling are covered with spider silk, and broken props are scattered everywhere on the floor. It is obvious that this place has been abandoned for a long time.
"This is too miserable, right?"
Seeing the miserable appearance of this villa, Asuna couldn't help but be amazed.
The luxurious sofa set, huge stoves, and all kinds of furniture have all collapsed one by one in the past ten years, and even the carpet on the floor has been bitten to pieces by insects.
This is the living room. Everyone searched for it and found that there was no useful information. This kind of map is different from the closed beta period. A lot of information has changed randomly, and even Kirito is not useful this time.
Next to the living room is a spacious dining room, with huge dining tables and chairs still alive. There are empty plates and Western tableware for about ten people neatly placed on the table. The wine bottles and candlesticks are all gray due to dust. The crystal lamps on the ceiling also have spider webs hanging down, making a decayed scene.
However, before Ling Ze and the others could search, accompanied by the howling sound of the cold wind, a hazy blue and white light appeared under the table. Then, five soul monsters appeared through the dirty table towels, five ghosts with slender bodies and tattered white dresses.
Human-type soul monsters can be divided into male, female and gender-unknown types. However, most ghosts are women, but this annoying ghost is completely unrelated to beauty. The arms stretched out from the tattered white dress are as thin as bones, and 70% of the faces are bones. It is no wonder that Asuna is scared to be so scared to this face.
The ghosts were burning with blue ghost fires in their eye sockets. They screamed and rushed towards this side, trying to catch people with their sharp nails. Everyone flexibly avoided its attack and then launched a counterattack. Unfortunately, the effect was not obvious. The place where the ghost was cut was cut, only a white smoke-like gas flew out, and the hp was rarely reduced.
The entities of the "soul-type" monsters are very weak, so it is difficult for weapons to give them effective damage. Logically speaking, "magic" should be used to deal with these ghosts at this time, but unfortunately, Ain Grant has no magic, so they can only find ways to use weapons to "physical exorcism".
In fact, the most convenient way to fight ghosts is to go to the church to spend money on "blessings" buffs. This "blessings" buff is very restrained by monsters in the "soul system". In addition, there are "fire". Monsters in the "soul system" are generally weak "light", weak "fire". Holding a torch in your hand is better than a sword.
Ling Ze and the others are not short of torches, and they have not used up what they have done before, but waving torches in such wooden houses is much more terrifying than fighting these ghosts, so in the final analysis, they can only physically exorcise.
"There is their weakness in the middle of the chest of these ghosts. No matter what kind of weapon it is, as long as it can hit, it can cause very good damage."
Ling Ze proposed a new method, but no one doubted it, because Ling Ze had easily killed a ghost with one knife.
