Night Raven Master

Chapter 180 Burnt Black
In the castle, a man shook his head, and he felt as if he had fallen asleep in a daze.

"What happened before?"

He was trying to recall the previous situation.

"By the way, my team came to the castle yesterday, and we are going to rest after dinner."

He led the crowd, picked out the fourth or fifth floor of the castle, and after a brief tidying up, he was ready to go to bed, but an old problem happened, and after he was asked to make the bed, he felt a little groggy.

"Too little to eat."

As long as you eat less, you will feel dizzy and weak.

However, after seeing that scene, I was not in the mood to eat.

After dinner was settled, it was completely dark, and there was nothing in the castle that could be used for lighting, and the lighting props they brought could not last for too long.

If you are not in a hurry, there is no need to waste, so I made an appointment to go to bed early, and after I got up the next day, I would check the castle carefully again.

Sitting on the bed, after scanning his surroundings, he felt another sense of fatigue, which made him rub the corners of his eyes and rest for a while.

The room was eerily silent.

On the left and right sides of the bed, there are doors and windows. The doors are far away, and the windows can be touched by sitting on the bed.

The ground is light red, irregular tiles, densely packed into a flat floor.

Except for a bed, there is only a low table in the whole room, and there is nothing else.

Putting the portable oil lamp and weapons brought over on the table, looking at the yellowish flickering fire in the lamp, his eyes could barely keep burning there for an hour.

Sighing, he was about to walk to the window and look down.

Accompanied by a soft sound, the direction of the door, came the sound of the door moving.

The man sat up suddenly, his eyes fixed on the half-open door, and his hands unconsciously grabbed the bedside, where his sword should be placed.

The feeling of grasping the object came, but it was a little strange.

There was nothing at the door, only the door was opened, and there was no one there.

"Who is it!? Don't scare me!" The man raised his voice, "Ludi!? Captain?"

The sound resounded in the room, and then spread outside the door, echoing like ripples in the long empty corridor.

However, the only answer to him was the wind brought by the blizzard outside the window.

The man calmed down quickly. He stood up straight and walked towards the door cautiously. His eyes glanced outside the door. There was still silence in the darkness. Although he was a little vigilant, the darkness did not make him feel any pain. of fear.

Taking two steps back, the door was gently closed, and the rusty bolt was inserted to lock the door.

After the bolt was placed between the door and the wall, the door was completely locked.

The slightly blue eyes stared at the door for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he turned around, walked back to the bed, and put the weapon in his hand on the table beside the bed.

However, it was only at this time that he noticed what the "weapon" he had been holding was exactly.

An arm connected to the metacarpal bones, and the joints were connected by tendon-like muscles. When the man looked at it, a human face suddenly appeared on the flesh and blood.

"what!"

The man threw it away immediately, stepped back quickly and looked for other weapons in the room.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound from the window behind him, like a thief fiddled with a keyhole with props.

A creepy feeling emerged spontaneously, and he turned his direction again, away from the window and the place where he threw the hand bone just now.

But at this moment, Xi Suo's voice stopped abruptly.

The man turned his head and looked in the direction of the window. A bloody face was lying on the window, his empty eyes looked at him, and there was a weird smile on the corner of his mouth.

The hairs all over his body stood up.

It's too dangerous to stay in the room at this time!
The man kicked his feet hard on the ground, accelerated to the door, pulled the latch hard, and opened the door forcefully.

And the other voices in the room, at this moment, completely disappeared.

A man with long blond hair stood in front of the door, looking at him with some doubts:
"Captain, what's wrong with you?"

"Ludy! Be careful! There is something in the room." The man subconsciously said, pointing his finger into the room.

However, after making this action, he was stunned, because he suddenly found that he and Ludi were standing in a wide space.

This is the hall of the castle?
He was right in the room just now.

"Alright, alright, captain, let's clean up here quickly." Lu Di smiled and said, "We are the first to discover this castle, and the Mercenary Guild doesn't have any quests about this castle, so if we can find something thing"

Lu Dishao flicked his long hair: "There are six of us in total. You, the captain, account for 30% of the head, and 70% for the five of us, which means 14% for each of us."

As he spoke, he looked at the table beside him.

The captain followed his gaze and looked at the table. The emergency supplies they carried with them were placed on the table. The small Koga took out a sleeping bag and put it on the ground.

"What's the matter? Are you too tired?"

The captain rubbed the corners of his eyes.

"Captain, it's too cold on the ground! You'll die if you just sleep on the ground!" Koga yelled, "It's really too cold!"

"It's fine to sleep with clothes on, I can't die." Di Keli looked indifferent, "I can't bear the cold, what kind of mercenary is I?"

Koga's face drooped when he heard this: "Hey, not everyone who becomes a mercenary has to be strong. I'm in charge of investigation! My body is different from yours."

As he said that, he sat down on the sleeping bag, muttering something like "get warm first".

Seeing his appearance, Di Keli couldn't help shaking her head. This kind of man is much worse than Hope.

Thinking of this, she sighed, and put the palm of her left hand on top of the palm of her right hand, with a trace of nostalgia and tenderness on her face.

"Tsk tsk tsk, our cold-faced warrior actually showed such an expression." An arm directly wrapped around her shoulder, "Thinking of your hero again?"

It was Qila who spoke. Compared with Di Keli who is less than 1.7 meters, her height of nearly 1.9 meters allows her to hug Di Keli directly from top to bottom.

"You don't need to talk too much." Di Keli's tone was indifferent, but a blush still flashed on her face.

Lu Di leaned over, with a frivolous smile on his face: "This is a private topic among women, right? Right?"

At this time, they found that the captain was covering his head with his hands for some reason.

"Captain, what's wrong with you?"

Several people came together.

"I'm fine." Just as the captain was about to say something, he barely opened his eyes, but the scene in front of him blocked his words in his throat.

The six people walked towards the gate with their weapons in hand, and walked on the straight road paved with black ash until they reached the gate of the castle.

There is no heavy snow around, nor any ice cold.

"Koga, can you open the door?"

Lu Di rubbed his chin, looked at the gate, and said to his companion.

The captain raised his head in a daze, looking at the huge door made of wood and iron plates.

From the gap between the few people, one could see the huge keyhole.

The size of that keyhole is much larger than a normal keyhole.

"I'll give it a try." Koga bit the tool with his teeth, removed a long piece of metal from it, and inserted it into the keyhole.

When the captain recovered from his trance, Koga had already opened the door, and after he shouted excitedly, he pushed the door hard.

Accompanied by the sharp friction sound of rusted metal being pushed violently, the door opened towards the inside, revealing a dark, empty hall.

In a trance, the captain followed the crowd into the hall, scanning the entire hall.

Looked around.

In the entire hall, there was nothing, no furniture, no lamps, no oil paintings, and no other decorations.

Seeing such a scene, Ke Jia looked unlucky: "Ah, I wanted to pick up some things."

It was so badly burned that basically nothing was left, neither the paintings on the walls nor the lamp holders.

The oil painting was burned away, leaving only a slightly lighter color, rectangular black frame, and the metal lamp base was also melted and twisted into a ball.

The whole hall was filled with gray and black tones.

The captain looked blankly at the opposite window. The window facing the main door just slanted down a beam of reddish light, projecting on the black ground, making the whole hall appear more empty and silent.

Red Moon, what month is it now?
Isn't it already winter?
He looked at Koga and Ludi, who were wearing cool clothes with their arms exposed, and three women and a man beside them.

Who are they?

Decley, Chera.
"Captain, Ludi and I will go search first!" Koga waved his arms and put the tool back on his waist, "Let's go from the left, Captain, why don't you wait in the hall, or start searching from the right? But We've got to hurry up, it's almost nighttime and dinner needs to be prepared."

"Captain, are you hungry? Why don't you get some food first? Wait until our search is over?"

Koga smiled and waved away.

"Call you back quickly"

The chaotic memories and fatigue in his mind made him have no energy to say anything else, he looked around and walked towards the steps.

Only the steps were cleaner, the rest was black ashes.

He walked slowly, step by step towards the stairs. When he moved his palms against the wall, the black ash on it fell down, revealing a scorched face.

smiling face.

He hurriedly took a step back, and the scorched corpse fell face-to-face on the ground.

"call"

"Captain, are you okay?" A companion's concerned voice came from behind.

"It's okay." He shook his head, ready to say something to reassure his companion, "I"

But when he turned his head, all he saw were a few standing, charred bodies.

They opened their mouths and said in the voices of their companions:
"Captain? Captain?"

His eyes widened, pupils constricted.
