There was a cry in the young woman's voice, conveying a gentleness and delicateness unique to women.
But the situation she described was frightening:
"In this copy, there is no so-called camp of good and evil. Everyone is a plaything! Except for the 'ace'... everyone must die!"
……
The water in the vase splashed on Xiaoyang's face.
Part of the ink stains were washed away by the water, but Xiaoyang was still in pain.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and bloodshot eyes spread from the whites to the pupils. Black ink stains jumped wantonly in her eye sockets, letting tears and blood flow together.
Spider hands covered with burrs stretched out from behind, but they were helpless against the strange ink raging in their eyes!
"Is it poison or a physical attack?"
Jiang Qian stepped forward and held Xiaoyang's cheek, using his tongue to lick the blood and tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, and successfully tasted the delicious venom.
In the current critical situation, Jiang Qian ignored the ethics and morals and directly sucked the girl's eyes with his mouth, sucking out the poisonous ink.
Xiaoyang's body gradually calmed down in Jiang Qian's arms, and the stretched spider hands slowly faded away, returning to the normal state of a girl.
"Huh...huh..."
Xiaoyang's body trembled slightly.
Jiang Qian let go of his arms, allowing the girl to sit up straight.
But Xiaoyang obviously hadn't calmed down from the strange situation just now. The moment Jiang Qian let go, she threw herself into Jiang Qian's arms and started sobbing.
Didn't you say that you have taken a dim view of life and death? Hey... Jiang Qian is somewhat uncomfortable, after all, he hasn't even put on his clothes yet.
It was at this moment that both of them heard the update on the progress of the side mission:
【Side mission update!】
[Team up to explore Duke Hyland’s collection room, mission progress: 60%]
Advancing from 30% to 60%, it seems that we are one step closer to some secrets... Jiang Qian just breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not expect that the prompt of the dungeon was not over:
[Mr. Detective, congratulations on your second opportunity to release your hole card skills. You can look at any player's hole cards and check the corresponding functions of that player's hole cards]
The lights above began to flicker on and off, and then went out instantly...
[You have 5 seconds to make a choice]
【5,4,3...】
Jiang Qian chose Dr. Dai.
So far, this is his most curious trump card.
But the important thing is that when Jiang Qian hears the words "Mr. Detective", other surviving super species players will also take action.
Xiaoyang, who has the "Parasol" trump card, cannot protect the same person repeatedly. Last time she chose to defend herself, so this time, the only person she can protect besides him is the graceful lady who got the "Hammer".
But it is not clear whether "Hammer" is still alive, so Xiaoyang will probably protect him.
Then this round should be able to land smoothly.
But will the opposing camp spend its time on him?
If her attack card "Hammer" is still alive, who will she choose as the target of attack this time?
These thoughts were almost a rotation of flashes, and the copy quickly gave him the answer:
【Scalpel】
[You can advance to attack, and you can retreat to defend. In each round of action, you can change the offensive and defensive attributes of the card ability. When the attribute is "offensive", you can directly choose the target to kill; when the attribute is "defensive", you can choose it in the subsequent process.
Rescue objects. Rescue objects do not include yourself.]
[After the second action upgrade, when the player chooses the "defending" side, the rescue target can include himself.]
The rule of not being able to save oneself in the first round indeed exists... Jiang Qian sighed silently.
This situation is understandable. In the first round, Doctor Dai did not count the pressure on the knife, but chose the more flexible "defend" attribute.
In addition, he always felt that Tony Fugui and Dr. Dai seemed to know each other offline.
Although this probability is extremely slim...
The first doubt is that when Tony Fugui was attacked, apart from the vigorous man who had already exchanged the code, the first person he suspected was himself on the left, not Doctor Dai on the right.
The second doubtful point is that after the first round of attacks, everyone was frightened and wary of each other. But Tony Fugui’s defense direction was always facing his own side, leaving his back completely to Doctor Dai.
Even if there is serious suspicion that he is an official, and he has a blood feud with the official, he will not give up his defense against others, right?
Experienced players will not make such stupid mistakes.
Right here, the light turns on.
Jiang Qian pushed Xiaoyang and was about to get up, but found that Xiaoyang's body went limp in his arms...
An ominous premonition emerged.
"Xiaoyang?"
Jiang Qian held Xiaoyang's thin shoulders and slowly raised her upper body.
Heavy.
Along the hanging ends of her hair, Jiang Qian caught a glimpse of a trace of bright red...
The knife mark was carved horizontally into Xiaoyang's neck, and blood spread from there, staining the girl's collar and chest.
Jiang Qian looked at the girl, whose face was getting paler and her eyes were dull, without making any movement for a long time.
There was no emotion in his heart at the moment.
It is as calm as a pool of stagnant water in the mountains, thick and stubborn.
There is only one fact in my mind: Xiaoyang was attacked and she died.
At least she is dead in the dungeon.
If Jianqi Man is still alive, then he is most likely to attack me and "Hammer", but I have Xiaoyang's protection. Was it Dr. Dai who attacked Xiaoyang? He probably got some clues, and thus he was protected by Xiaoyang.
The person he was guarding had a certain state of mind, and he caught it... Jiang Qian reasoned backwards with an expressionless face.
He put down Xiaoyang's body and continued to collect useful clues.
There is no other choice - the side quest must be completed!
The next time will be the decisive round.
……
The center of the pile of beast bones.
Tony Fugui and Doctor Dai stood with their backs facing each other. Their clothes were in tatters and their limbs were covered with scars.
Obviously, they had suffered extremely crazy attacks before.
At this time, the two people's bodies were tense, and they stared straight ahead for a long time, and then they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time!
"It's safe, hahaha..." Tony Fugui laughed.
"Maybe that 'hammer' has died a long time ago." Dr. Dai looked very calm.
"No matter what, the current situation is more beneficial to us! Let's go, get out of this damn place quickly, I don't want to stay at this moment!" Tony Fugui couldn't help but touch the scratch on his face and urged again and again. p>
……
In the forgotten world of jewelry craftsmanship.
The red light is charming, reflecting on the snow-white corpse, showing an artistic effect that is unbearable to look at.
……
The end of the corridor is full of picture scrolls, ancient books, and calligraphy treasures.
In a room with many empty display shelves, someone is carrying out sabotage inside.
"The Duke likes to collect. His collections are spread all over the world, including jewelry, paintings and calligraphy, weapons, rare animals, handicrafts..."
Jiang Qian picked up the hammer and without hesitation struck at the exquisitely carved tiles on the wall...
"The mysterious gift, no matter how many times it is returned, will still be sent to the Duke's house accurately. This gift that cannot be returned was taken away by the butler Simon, who lived in the Duke's Mansion. After that, things began to change in the Duke's Mansion.
It has to be weird..."
A secret grid was exposed in the wall. Jiang Qian debugged the password through his handkerchief and observed the structure inside the password lock through his spiritual vision.
"The showdown between good and evil, the intrusion of the third party, the trump card..."
Crack the password lock and open the secret compartment.
A "red knob" embedded in a human face appeared in front of Jiang Qian.
