The Midnight Owl

Chapter 74 - Castle



From Huainan to Anyang, the little friends laid back and walked for four days.

The route was made up of many green leather trains. This was the first time they felt, Mao Qiping said “comfortable journey”. Doze on the train during the day and sleep in the endless sea at night. Occasionally, the interval between the two trains is too long. They are around the train station and feel the local cuisine.

When leaving the endless sea of ​​Beijing, all the friends were lightly packed into battle. If they didn’t have large luggage, they carried a small bag with documents and necessary items. Even when they entered the “owl”, they carried their bags and went with them.

In order to avoid bumps in combat, mobile phones have waterproof and shockproof bags, but the notebook is not a good way, so this time leaving Beijing, Wu Sheng did not bring a notebook at all.

How the company’s affairs were resolved, the little friends did not know. The only thing that could be confirmed was that without the notebook, his own military division could write the light of wisdom by using the mobile phone memo alone.

Not long after getting on the train, Qian Ai was still studying the melon seed snack cart that the train crew pushed back and forth. Wu Junshi had already laid down a full-page list in the memo, which was shown to the three teammates.

Xu Wang looked at the left one TOP1-5 and the other TOP1-5, his eyes were all spent: “What is this?”

“Since we entered the owl to the present, the total score list has been opened a total of six times,” Wu Sheng said, “the list of all six times is here.”

Xu Wang: “…”

Kuang Jinxin: “…”

Qian Ai, who just bought a package of beef jerky: “Are you showing memory with us …”

Wu Sheng looked at the innocent “I still use my memory”, reached out and clicked on the screen, selected two places in the list: “This, it should be the mighty team.”

The two places selected are-

The first list: TOP5-Feng Rang, Ji Yunlei, Wei Menghan, Zhu Mo, Zou Jun (8/23)

The second list: TOP4-Feng Rang, Ji Yunlei, Wei Menghan, Zhu Mo, Zou Jun (8/23)

The results of the two levels have not changed. It is likely that this team did not rush to 9/23 within a week, but because the top four teams fell, they rose the second time, also from the side. Within a week, no cutting-edge team rushed up.

The selection of Wu Sheng, the friends basically understand it-

Kuang Jinxin: “Teammates call him Mr. Wei …”

Xu Wang: “I said why I called the mighty man, he knew I called him …”

Qian Ai: “Captain, you can hit the bull’s-eye with a nickname. What kind of high-tech …”

Wei Menghan, teacher Wei, mighty man.

“They definitely don’t just know to eat,” Wu Sheng withdrew from the memo. “They are strong.”

Xu Wang: “No one said they only know how to eat …”

These words are to be heard by Wei Menghan and they are expected to throw a crayfish shell over.

Locking in the identity of the Wei Menghan team is just the first step. In the next few days, the friends also studied the tactical arrangement of the new stationery under the leadership of Wu Junshi.

On 4/23, they used 26 of their stationery, originally 23 were left, but customs clearance + record-breaking reward, each additional two sets of defense + martial arts + magic, to make up 24, so available stationery, a total of 47 Pcs.

This is worth studying.

The overall planning of the tactics is naturally Captain Xu + Wu Jun, one with brain holes, one with practice, one with free flying, and one with scientific rigor, which are complementary to each other.

Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin only listened to the tragic tactics, and could not help but feel a trace of guilt towards the future opponents.

But after guilt, he still took out his mobile phone, silently recorded, and recite the full text in his spare time.

In this way, when the last train arrived at the station, everyone not only recovered from the fatigue of 4/23, but also fully nurtured their spirits.

It was early in the morning when we arrived in Anyang. The sun was warm and the sky was clear. The friends first filled the cake with spicy soup and eggs to start a beautiful day, and then went to the hotel to check in and wash away the servants. At noon, he and Qian Ai tasted Anyang Sanxun, Daokou Roasted Chicken, and Fried Skin Residue all over again. They were as happy as a sunset red tour group.

As night fell, the comfort slowly faded, and the tension caused by the unknown level gradually filled my mind.

The positioning of coordinate points is a crossroad.

At midnight, the four came to the dark place two hundred meters from the intersection and quietly waited.

There is no figure at the intersection in the distance, but no one knows how many peers are hidden in the endless nights around.

Everything was silent, even the wind stopped.

“Goo—”

The manhole cover at the feet of the four people gradually turned into a purple vortex, and the friends jumped straight in without hesitation.

The sense of weightlessness disappears and the vision is bright again.

Old castle banquet hall.

Domes painted with frescoes, ornate crystal lamps, exquisite reliefs, and long tables filled with food. In the center of the hall, there are crowds of three and five people chatting and laughing, as well as waiters carrying wine trays and shuttles back and forth.

The old castle has a medieval taste, but the guests are dressed in modern clothes, and it looks like a company rented it and held a year-end party.

Laughing with joy, Yi Xiang Yi Ying.

Xu Wang stood abruptly among them, but fortunately, it was not only their team that did not match the style.

Looking up, I can see my colleagues everywhere. Some of them are like a team of four, and there are only single figures, some are at a loss, some are vigilant, some are thoughtful, and some are at ease. They have already mixed into the guests. Eat and drink.

Beijing time 0:02:00

The two-minute “Owl Entry Time” ends, the aisle closes, and a “N in one” prompt sounds in the banquet hall.

“Ding–“

The guests, who were entangled in planning, were unaware of the obvious weird sound, fulfilled their duty of NPC dutifully, continued clinking, and continued talking and laughing.

At this time, it can be seen who is the “passer”-one with arms raised, one cannot run.

: If the number of the team is insufficient (4/5), will there be additional staff?

Xu Wang they had already prepared-although Captain Yue didn’t escape the “Ten Minute Curse” twice, and he didn’t want to talk about this level, but he had to increase the number of people first.

The four partners are uniform and choose “Yes”.

The shortlist of additional staff appears immediately—

6/23 Chen Xu [Invitation]

6/23 Chi Yingxue [Invitation]

6/23 Deng He [Invitation]

6/23 Qi Shan [Invitation]

6/23 Wang Chuming [Invitation]

Unlike , the name displayed in the is not the completed level, but the level.

However, what Xu Wang didn’t expect was that the banquet hall looked at a lot of passers-by, and there were only five people who didn’t really form a team.

There is one of them that they want to blacklist …

Qian Ai’s eyes widened incredulously: “Can he get here like this?”

It’s not a question of strength, but a question of personality. Qian Ai thinks that no team can endure that guy for more than two days.

“It’s time to come, isn’t it gone?” Xu Wang’s mood is a bit complicated. Although the hostility towards this person is difficult to dispel, on 3/23 a month ago, if they did not provoke his relationship with his teammates, they might break The pot comes with a broken lid, so it’s OK.

A person like Chi Yingxue, who wants to find a team that he recognizes and does not dislike him, is actually quite difficult.

Kang Jinxin didn’t think so much. At the moment when he saw Chi Yingxue’s name, he subconsciously looked around. Finally, he found a man leaning across the corner, leaning against the corner of the wall.

Today Chi Yingxue is dressed normally, with a dark coat, similar pants, and even a low profile.

Seemingly feeling his sight, he suddenly looked up.

The eyes of the two crossed the layers of guests and faced each other.

Kuang Jinxin froze for a moment, not knowing what to give him for a moment.

Chi Yingxue nodded slightly, saying hello from the air.

In his eyes, there is no fluctuation of “reunion of old friends”, whether it is hostility, murder, surprise, or surprise. The look he looked at, including his slight nod, was like facing a stranger.

Kuang Jinxin was completely dumbfounded, let alone the two of them had fought, even if he was really a stranger, so polite and polite is Chi Yingxue’s style?

The other three partners didn’t find the “eye contact” here, and their attention was still on the roster.

There are only five objects that can be added, which shows that most of the barriers trapped here are like them. They have teams, but there are not enough people to enter the level.

“More monks and less monks …” Qian Ai was overwhelmed with emotion, and did not forget to remind her captain, “Choose it quickly, otherwise you can only knock on the empty bowl.”

He had just dropped his voice, and there were two people missing from the list of candidates, one Wang Chuming and one Chen Xu.

Xu Wang and Wu Sheng: “…”

Qian Ai: “Understood, I shut up.”

Qian Ai was cleverly silent, and Xu Wang had nothing to hesitate. He had wanted to find these people to communicate with him, and then choose the best staff. Now it seems that he can only be lucky.

“Small …” Xu Wang wanted Kang Jinxin to give an opinion, but the word “Kuan” hadn’t been exported yet, and the prompt sounded first.

The four partners received the same message-

: Qi Shan requested to join the team, do you agree?

Dare to love is a two-way choice. In addition to the team’s initiative to increase the number of people, the order can also apply to join the team?

The four partners looked at each other and wanted to get married, and their daughter-in-law fell in the sky. What are you waiting for? Marry!

“Ding–“

: Qi Shan joined the team.

【Owl: Welcome to the Castle Hotel ~~】

The world is dark and bright again, the banquet hall and all guests and colleagues have long disappeared. The complete lineup of five people is in a room of the ancient castle hotel. The beds and bedding are retro, but the dark brown table is placed on the table. Phone, guest room notes, etc., revealed its “modern” identity.

The four teammates who appeared here together, of course, were the fifth player, Qi Shan.

Looking at the name, Xu Wang thought it was a grandmother with big flashing eyes. When he saw a real person, he was in his early twenties and was two centimeters shorter than Wu Sheng. He was about one meter eighty-five and eighty-six, with wide shoulders and narrow The waist, long legs, and facial features can’t be seen, but they are very comfortable when they are put together. They are both handsome and affinity, and they are just small fresh meat. .

“Thank you for letting me join.” Qi Xuan smiled brightly and immediately turned from salt to sweet.

Xu Wang sent a heartfelt contact with his new partner: “We mainly choose by face value.”

“Cough,” Wu Sheng cleared his throat. “Limited time, we can run in friendship in the barrier.”

The word friendship was slightly aggravated by Wu Junshi.

Captain Xu, immersed in the joy of his new teammates, did not hear at all, and continued to ask Qi Shan: “Why did you choose our team?”

Wu Sheng: “…”

The old money stepped forward and gently patted Wu Sheng’s shoulder, comforting: “Since ancient times, newcomers have replaced old ones.”

Wu Sheng did not speak, and flew an eye knife towards him.

“In the optional team, I saw the names of several of you at first glance,” Qi Shan said. “The intuition told me that it was you.”

This answer surprised Xu Wang a little: “Our name is ordinary …”

“This is unclear, it’s an eye,” Qi Shan looked at the four friends one by one, with a little pride in his tone, “but now that I see you, I know that I chose the right one, you don’t need to say, I all I can match your name with you. “

Xu Wang’s eyes flashed with surprise: “Really?”

Moreover, Jin Xin and Qian Ai did not expect it.

Wu Sheng raised his eyebrows, and frowned slightly between his back eyebrows. He always felt that he saw a love prodigal who used small magic to please people.

Qi Shan first looked at Xu Wang: “You are Wu Sheng.”

Look at Wu Sheng again: “You are Kuang Jin.”

Look at Jin Xin again: “You are Qian Ai.”

Look at Qian Ai again: “You are Xu Wang.”

At the end of the speech, Classmate Qi smiled warmly, “I will say we are destined.”

Four partners: “…”

Being so distracted by the new partner, they all doubted their identity …

“Xu Wang.”

“Wu Sheng.”

“Kuan Jinxin.”

“Qian Ai!”

They should report it to themselves.

Qi Shan was stunned: “I didn’t recognize any of them right?”

Wu Sheng nodded refreshedly: “Don’t doubt, you avoided all the correct answers perfectly.”

In this embarrassing yet warm atmosphere, the new ceremony ended successfully.

Qi Shan, like them, had never been to 6/23, but they did n’t jump on 5/23, so when Xu Wang sincerely informed that his team had a single pass record, and then somehow jumped over here, Qi Shan also Treat each other with sincerity and share the information you know.

First, to break the record of the speed of submission, there is indeed a reward of “advancing one pass”; second, the content of 5/23 is “Ghost House Infernal Affairs”, that is, entering a labyrinth as a ghost The old house completes the mission without being discerned by various monsters, evil spirits, and evil spirits.

In fact, Xu Wang has obtained the fifth level of information from Yue Shuai, but the new teammates are not aware of it, so when the other party’s sharing and Yue Shuai’s statement can be fully matched, Xu Wang is relieved.

Objectively speaking, accepting new members is a very uncertain thing. The increase in staffing is all right, they are all happy, the increase in staffing is wrong, and the home is restless. As the captain, Xu Wang did not dare to take it lightly.

After a brief exchange of information, the five partners opened the door quietly.

Outside is a narrow and long corridor, covered with dark patterned carpets, and you can’t see the end at a glance. Both sides of the wall are candlesticks, and the fire shines one after another, only the doors with different door numbers.

“Defense?” Wu Sheng whispered.

Yue Shuai said that he did n’t want to talk about this level. In fact, he still told them. Although his team did n’t get through the two times for ten minutes, and did n’t know what the mission was at the end, he encountered a secret passage for the first time and the second The next time I found the archive point.

If there is a save point, it means that the team met is probably the old team that has fought the previous day.

They are newcomers who do not even know what the mission is. If they are not vigilant, they may not know how to die.

Thinking of this, Xu Wang nodded decisively: “Elementary defense.”

Wu Sheng immediately ordered his stationery box.

[Owl: Someone used for you ~~]

At the same time as the reminder sounded in the ear, the little friends followed, including Qi Shan.

It is not an accident to set up an armor first, but what kind of magic code is “primary defense”? It is too windy to communicate like this!

The armor concealed the description of the five partners, and it also concealed the flashing heart and soul.

When they came to the corridor, the partners could see clearly that the room they were in was 1301.

The hallway was quiet, the blanket absorbed the footsteps of five people, and only the subtle sound of the burning candle left in the ear.

There was a shadow in front of him, but before he could see it clearly, the shadow disappeared.

Five partners came to the place where the figure disappeared, 1310, the door was half open.

There was no sound inside. No matter looking in through a half-open door or listening on your side, it didn’t look like there was a “passer”.

Although the five partners are invisible, they can see each other. At this time, they exchange eyes and make sure.

Along the spacious door gap, the four friends flashed in, and the room they were in was basically the same interior decoration and bedding decoration, the only difference was the wall color.

In this room, the walls are unevenly charcoal black, as if burned by fire, mottled and messy.

But the furnishings are brand new.

Even the oil paintings on the walls are brightly colored, as if they had just been painted.

It’s just that the content of the painting is cruel.

It was a picture of a medieval “Witch Execution”. The young girl was tied to a cross torture frame, and a fire was burning under her feet. The people around him were excited, and they wished to rush up and fan the fire again.

The girl’s expression was painful, but there was no weakness in her eyes. She fixed her eyes on the two people behind the tree, not far away.

It was a pair of young men and women who were kissing behind the tree, and the flare of the punishment of the witch seemed to be the bonfire of their date.

Suddenly, the “witch” in the painting slowly turned to the little friends.

The five buddies who didn’t dare to speak out, looked at the “witch” from the side, half-sided, and then changed their face. Finally, facing each other’s eyes, the “witch” pulled a strange smile.

The scalp was numb, and the walls in the house suddenly burned!

The heat wave is burning!

“withdraw–“

Xu Wang didn’t care about exposing the danger anymore, and decisively led the team out of 1310!

Fortunately, there was no such frightening bridge section where the door was closed instantly.

The five people who returned to the corridor were all sweaty in their heads, and they could not tell whether they were scared by the fire escape or the smile of the witch.

Now they know that it is not a figure who entered 1310, but a ghost! ! !

“Click–“

“Click–“

“Click–“

The doors of 1312, 1313, and 1314 opened at the same time. A gentle girl with long hair, a gentleman in a suit and a leather jacket, and an old man with a hairy face, all came out with a probe. They could go through the corridor and did not find the five people in stealth. And asked each other: “What happened?”

After asking, his face was blank.

At the end, they closed the door again.

In view of these few people, it is not like an offensive NPC in any way. After unifying the opinions, Wu Sheng lifted his invisibility, and the five knocked on the door one by one to exchange friendlyly.

The process was very smooth. After a while, I basically talked about the background of three people.

The long-haired girl of 1312 came here for a holiday, but I do n’t know why, I forgot where my home is, and I do n’t remember how long I lived here.

The gentleman of 1313 came here to attend a business reception and has not encountered any problems at present.

The old man of 1314, a non-stop writer, is conceiving a new novel here.

The chat is out, but what to do in this level is still clueless.

00:15:00 Beijing time

Team Xu Wang, who had been headless for fifteen minutes, finally waited for the **** voice—

[Owl: I hope you have found your direction ~~]

The ensuing update of the cheat sheet—

: Please select the 6/23 quest line. Once selected, do not regret it. Love line / career line / puzzle line / escape line / happy line / horror line?

The five looked at each other.

Qi Shan’s surprise was simple, but he didn’t expect to choose the mission line.

On the basis of the same surprise, the other four partners added one more layer-did this easily take fifteen minutes and got the task reminder? Yue Shuai, what exactly did they experience in the “Ten Minute Curse” twice …
