Chapter 922: Demon-Killing Rangers (VI)
It was almost noon, in the tree house.
"Oh~ You are much better than I thought, wang..." Sean scratched his head and looked at Xiao Tan, "... You were too modest before. In my opinion, you are an expert in monsters."
"It's okay..." Xiao Tan replied absentmindedly.
At this moment, he had been chatting with Sean and Horace for a long time. The so-called "monster test" was actually some knowledge questions about monsters. For players like Xiao Tan who have been in the horror park for a long time, these questions are naturally not difficult.
"Speaking of which... Can I really help the game by chatting with these two little ghosts here..." Since he had not obtained any definite benefits so far, and had not received any system prompts, Xiao Tan was already doubting whether what he was doing was useless.
"I'm right, Sean." Horace said, "Wang can join our club, right?"
"Of course." Sean said, "Let him be our consultant."
"Haha... That's great..." Xiao Tan didn't want to discourage the children's enthusiasm, so he forced a smile and said, "Well... I see it's almost noon, I..."
Just when Xiao Tan was about to slip away with the excuse of "my mom called me home for dinner", Sean suddenly thought of something and interrupted, "By the way! I have something to show you."
As he spoke, he had climbed to a corner of the tree house and started searching among a pile of miscellaneous items.
Seeing this scene. Xiao Tan swallowed back what he wanted to say and waited and watched.
"Oh, here it is." Not long after. Sean climbed back with a book.
It was a very thick book, wrapped in a leather cover, and the whole was yellow-brown. It was a very old thing at first glance.
"Two days ago, my mom went to Jane Boggs' garage sale and bought me this book." Sean showed the cover of the book to the two friends with a mysterious expression, "Look who the author is."
"Well... this is..." Xiao Tan just saw the handwriting on the cover.
Horace on the side shouted out loudly: "Oh my God! It's Van Helsing! Where did Boggs get it from?"
"My mom said that they seemed to find it in the old house on Dark Creek Road." Sean replied.
Xiao Tan thought for a while. He asked: "Um... can I take a look?"
"Of course..." When Sean said the first half of the sentence, he directly handed the book to Xiao Tan's hand, and then said the second half of the sentence, "... provided that you can understand it."
Xiao Tan took the book and looked down. Then he blurted out: "German?"
"Yeah." Sean shrugged, "Otherwise I wouldn't leave the book here without reading it."
"Hmm..." Xiao Tan thought to himself, "I don't understand German... and the system's translation function didn't translate the text in this book, so it can be seen..."
"Sean, Horace." Xiao Tan thought for a while and asked, "Do you know anyone around here who knows German?"
Sean and Horace looked at each other, and after a few seconds. Horace swallowed and replied: "Yes, there is... but that person..."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Tan asked suspiciously. "That person is not very friendly?"
"We call him 'weird German man'." Sean took over the conversation and said, "He looks about 60 years old and lives alone in the unit in the northwest corner of the community. No one has ever seen him leave the house, and no one has seen what he looks like in the house..." His tone seemed to be describing a monster, not a person, "It is said that he is a German spy, or maybe a vampire."
"Why do I feel like he is just an empty-nest elderly person of foreign nationality..." Xiao Tan couldn't help but complain.
"What did you say?" Sean and Horace didn't seem to get the meaning of this sentence.
"Hehe... nothing." Xiao Tan quickly turned the topic to business, and then said, "If you don't mind, how about going with me to visit the 'weird German man'?"
…………
It was almost noon, and an ambulance was driving smoothly on a small road in the city.
The driver was a blond guy in his twenties. He was wearing a blue uniform and wearing headphones while driving, listening to slightly noisy music.
Perhaps because this trip was just to transport the body, he was the only one in the car.
And lying in the back of the ambulance at this time was the man who called himself "werewolf" who was shot dead in the police station before.
"What's going on?" The blond guy drove the car to the middle of the small road and found that the road ahead was blocked by a brown Ford car that looked very shabby.
Because this road is relatively narrow, if the car is parked in the middle of the road like this, it can basically block vehicles from both directions. Unless the driver is willing to risk damaging the chassis and drive the car onto the shoulder of the road, it will not be able to pass.
"Hey! What are you doing, man?" The blond guy stopped the ambulance helplessly, stuck his head out of the window, and yelled at the car.
The next second, a pale face appeared in the window next to the driver's seat of the road-blocking car...
…………
On the other hand, on a tree-lined avenue in the community.
"The other side also has two people, we can't be careless..." Tanlang said as he squatted behind the green belt on the side of the road.
"I'm not careless." Po Jun hid behind a big tree one meter away from his teammates and responded, "In an encounter like this, wouldn't it be the safest way to test it with shooting skills first? ?”
At this time, behind a low wall on the opposite side of the avenue.
"Fortunately, the abilities of the players in this script are limited..." Xiao Ling muttered while dealing with the wound on his arm, "Otherwise, the shot just now might have killed me..."
"But..." Ruoyu, who was standing next to her, continued, "...we have been taken advantage of by the other side, and we must be careful not to let the other side expand our advantage."
"It's okay." Xiao Ling had already healed the wound. And he continued confidently and murderously, "I don't believe it. How can he beat me in sniping?"
…………
Dark Creek Road. "Old House".
This road is located in the suburbs, surrounded by an almost barren mountain-like scene.
The shadows of the dancing trees and the miles-long swamp surrounded the "old house", making this already ancient house even more eerie.
At noon that day, a dark car drove slowly in front of the old house...and stopped.
Soon, an adult man stepped out of the driver's seat.
He looked to be in his thirties or forties and was wearing a cheap suit that didn't fit him well, although he worked hard to tidy up his hair and beard. But it's still hard to hide the sloppy look revealed by his long hair and stubble.
"Come on, Mr. F, we're here." Hill got out of the car. Then he turned around and walked to the back seat of the car, and opened the door for Brother Jue with a very unhappy attitude.
"Haha... you are a qualified driver, Mr. Hill." Feng Bujue didn't mind the other party's attitude, and he even made a lighthearted joke when he got out of the car. "I'm sorry I don't have any spare money to tip you."
"Hmph... That's really a pity." Shilpi responded with a smile. Respond to Brother Jue's provocative joke with sarcasm.
"Okay..." After Feng Bujue got off the station and settled down, he immediately gave an instruction to Hill, "Let's move on." At this point, he raised his finger and pointed to the old house more than ten meters away.
"What do you want to do here?" Hill glanced at the house, and then said in a suspicious tone, "This house has been abandoned for many years, and there are rumors that it is haunted."
"Haha...haunted." Feng Bujue repeated those two words and said with a smile. "Let me teach you another lesson, Mr. Hill..." He was speaking. He had already walked in front of Hill and gestured for him to follow him, "Any house that claims to be 'haunted' usually has one of the following two characteristics - one, the house is indeed haunted; two, the house is haunted; There is some important secret hidden there, so some people want to spread rumors about being haunted so that people will stay away from this place.”
"You mean..." Hill continued, "This house belongs to the second situation?"
"Well..." Feng Bujue turned his head and shrugged, "Huh... Actually, I personally think... the house in front of us has both situations."
"Then go in by yourself, I'll wait for you here." Hill responded immediately.
"Oyster." Before the other party finished speaking, another inexplicable word suddenly popped out of Feng Bujue's mouth.
"Ah——" Hill's reaction when he heard this word was not much different from when he heard "taro".
Along with the screams, Hill's body began to twitch from his vest, and it took less than two seconds until the impact spread to his whole body. In these two seconds, he was already lying down due to pain.
"Why...why...talk about sex..." After Hill regained his breath, he wanted to ask Feng Bujue what was going on, but as he spoke, he realized again...it was better not to mention it... The word "oyster" is better spoken.
"Ha...did you think I would only set one keyword?" Feng Bujue said, "Let me tell you, this chip's vocabulary library is quite extensive...a term like this that can make you want to die can still make you want to die. There are more than forty."
"You are simply a devil!" Hill roared at Brother Jue angrily and unwillingly.
"Whatever you say." Feng Bujue responded noncommittally, then snapped his fingers, pointed to the door in front of him, and said, "Now, if you don't want to know more about which lines will make you uncomfortable, then Please come and open the door.”
Faced with the naked threat, Hill could only quickly get up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and then walked to the door of the old house.
"I hope you can keep your promise after this matter is over... take out this damn chip." Hill muttered as he walked to Feng Bujue's side.
"Don't worry, that thing is much more valuable than your life." Brother Jue talked about this unpleasant fact with a sense of ridicule.
Gululu——Gululu——
Hill, who walked to the door, held the doorknob and turned it hard a few times, then turned to look at Brother Jue and said, "It's locked."
"So what?" Feng Bujue said, "Do you still want me to teach you how to break into the void?"
He asked this question because...when he stole a car before (obviously, the vehicle Feng Bujue and Hill took was stolen), Hill showed various layman qualities, and in the end he Completed under the careful guidance of Feng Bujue.
"I don't know how to unlock the door!" After hearing Brother Jue's rhetorical question, Hill yelled back, "What else do you want me to do? Break the door panel?"
"You can try it." Feng Bujue replied immediately.
"I..." Hill wanted to talk back, but he soon noticed a trace of impatience flash across Jue Ge's face with glaring fish eyes, "Okay! I'll try, don't mess around! "
The pain caused by the chip... is undoubtedly more unbearable than a dislocated shoulder or a fracture, so Hill can only do what the other party says.
Bang——
The first time it hit, the door panel made a muffled sound.
Bang bang - bang bang bang...
Then there was another flurry, recording how often Hill attacked the woodwork.
Just like that, after about a dozen collisions, I finally...
There was a "click", and a small hole was knocked out of the position where Hill's shoulder was pointed.
"Look, this kind of thing...how do you know you will fail if you don't give it a try?" Feng Bujue said in a tone like a life mentor guiding students.
Hill snorted coldly and did not answer the question. He just silently put his hand into the hole he had made, then bent his arm and unlocked the door from the inside.
A few seconds later, the door of the "old house"... just opened.
The moment the door opened, a gloomy, indescribable invisible pressure flowed out from the door, scaring Hill so much that he instinctively took a few steps back.
"Are you sure you want to go in?" This was the first time Hill had experienced the fear of being surrounded by darkness in broad daylight, and he desperately wanted to retreat.
"Nonsense, otherwise what am I here for?" Feng Bujue seemed unusually calm; while speaking, he had already taken out the [Composite Anti-Gravity Ejector] from his bag and turned on the light switch, "Think about it. The lighting inside this house is very poor, so... I will help you with lighting when you explore the way ahead, don't worry. "
When he heard the word "exploring the path", Hill's spine went cold. He swallowed, turned to look at Brother Jue, and asked tremblingly: "Are you sure you need me to explore the path? I I mean..." He looked at Brother Jue with almost pleading eyes, "...I think you can handle this matter by yourself..."
"Yes, I can." Feng Bujue replied coldly, "But there is cannon fodder here, so why don't I use it?" (To be continued...)
