Personality V: I will save everything

Early the next morning, the sun rose as expected.

The first mate had been thinking wildly all night last night.

I didn't sleep well all night, so the first mate stayed in the room to rest during the day.

But while the first mate was resting in the room, the others were muttering and preparing a plan.

"Wouldn't the owner of the manor find out?"

"Don't worry, the manor owner is very gentle, he will definitely not be angry."

"Don't worry, even if he is angry, there are still Carl and Andrew to help us."

.........

At the same time, I could clearly hear what they were talking about through the crystal ball.

"..." There was a long silence.

But of course, please don't get me wrong, they are not discussing doing anything bad, they are just discussing how to let the first mate off in tonight's game.

And what I'm thinking at this moment is, as for that? This is just a game, and no one will actually die.

Why do you think you are so ready to die?

Forget it, let them do whatever they want, just think that the first mate is lucky and meets a Buddhist supervisor.

As for my side, well, just pretend I didn’t see it, the crystal ball is broken today.

"Host, are you really okay with this?" the system suggested.

"What's wrong? This is also proof that they have begun to take the manor as their own."

I don't think it matters. On the contrary, I feel quite relieved. After all, only pampered children will make some willful requests.

"..." The system was silent for the nth time. Sure enough, the host could not think about his thoughts with normal human thinking.

I didn't continue to deal with this stupid system and continued to stay in the study to deal with the things I had to prepare next.

After the first mate wins the game and gets his reward, the last domino can be laid down.

While I was dealing with things in the study, Joseph made a cup of coffee as usual and sent it to my study.

He already knows by now that I prefer drinking coffee at work to black tea.

When he entered the study, I noticed the look in his eyes, which looked a little guilty.

"I don't suggest you prepare anything for tonight's game." I said coldly.

Joseph was obviously frightened by my sudden voice and what I said. You can see specifically, oh, the cup of coffee was knocked over and the coffee spilled on his hand.

"Why are you so careless?"

I stretched out my hand and covered Joseph's hand that was reddened by the coffee. I used a little magic to heal Joseph's hand that was reddened by the coffee.

Yeah, a slight burn.

"You have to remember that Joseph is your home. You don't have to be afraid in front of me." I said while helping Joseph treat him.

"Thank you! Your Excellency, Lord of the Manor." Joseph said sincerely.

His younger brother died of illness when he was young. Not long after his family fled to England, his parents also died unexpectedly, leaving him alone.

Since then, he has been living alone.

Although it was strange to say this, he really felt the warmth of his elders from the owner of the manor.

Do you consider the manor your home? That's good, because it does feel like home here.

I asked Joseph to go down and rest, and let the maids come and clean up the spilled coffee.

"It's obviously the host, but you scared him and he spilled the coffee."

"No, no, no, system, I just want to take the opportunity to tell him, don't worry that I will be angry because of their betrayal, because this is their home, we are family members, that's all."

The system went silent again. He really couldn't figure out what the host wanted to do?

Except for a small episode in the study, today passed happily.

After Joseph left the study, he also told others what happened in the study.

So everyone is relieved, tonight's game should be very interesting.

Soon, it was time for dinner.

Everyone knew that after dinner the games would begin.

The first mate stayed in the room during the day and had no idea what had happened in the manor.

It wasn't until dinner that he noticed that the atmosphere was a little more relaxed than yesterday.

Specifically, Joseph and Claude were talking and laughing, and Juke also chimed in from time to time.

Strangely, the atmosphere at dinner felt much more lively and relaxed than before.

Could it be that something happened in the manor while I was in my room?

But before the first mate could think too much, dinner time passed quickly and it was time to start the game.

The moment when the butler came over to announce that dinner was over and the game started.

In the blink of an eye, when you close your eyes and open them, the scene changes instantly.

How is this going? Why did I come here suddenly?

The first mate was shocked by this, but quickly calmed down and began to observe the things around him, relying on his years of reaction to severe weather changes during sailing.

It looks like a church here, but judging from the dust on the tombstones, it has been abandoned for a long time.

At the same time, he noticed a note in his pocket.

The rules of the game were written on the note, and he was told that his identity in this game was that a survivor needed to work with three other survivors to crack five cipher machines before he could get out.

At the same time, beware of being pursued by regulators.

what is this!

Seeing that the first mate was really angry, he angrily crumpled the note into a ball and smashed it on the ground.

From the moment I got the invitation, I felt like I was being led by others, as if I was just a small chess piece in the game, and I put myself on the chessboard when I wanted to. , kick yourself out when you don’t want to.

While the first mate was still incompetent and furious, Qiu Keke unexpectedly met him on the way to the cipher machine.

"Mr. Jose Baden, I think you should repair the cipher machine next to you now instead of being incompetent and furious." Juke couldn't stand it anymore. Remind him aloud.

"What did you say?!" The first mate, who was already angry, became even more angry after hearing Qiu Ke's taunt.

But Qiu Ke didn't seem to notice the first mate's anger, and just ignored him to fix the cipher machine next to him.

"By the way, at the same time, I have to remind you to be careful about the camera next to you." Qiu Ke reminded him without raising his head while repairing the cipher machine.

"camera?"

After Qiu Ke reminded him, the first mate also turned his head and looked at cameras appearing at regular intervals on the field, something that was incompatible with this church.

Just when the first officer wanted to get close to the cipher machine to check what this thing was used for, suddenly there was a roar from the camera, and a huge light screen was projected in front of the camera.

"What is this?!"

Just when the first mate wanted to get closer to the light curtain and observe carefully.

Suddenly a marching knife stretched out from the light curtain and slashed straight at the first mate's neck.

Fortunately, Qiu Ke, who had been repairing the cipher machine, had been paying attention to what was going on here. He reacted quickly and rushed over at a speed that was definitely like a man missing a leg. He grabbed the first mate by the back collar of his clothes and dragged him away. come over.

But no matter how fast Qiu Ke was, he could not completely save the first mate who was very close to the light screen at the time. The saber still scratched the first mate's neck, but fortunately it was only a little superficial and nothing serious.

"Run, you idiot!" Juke yelled mercilessly, grabbing the first mate's clothes and dragging him forward.

At this time, the first mate finally reacted and ran with Qiu Ke to a position far away from the light curtain.

"Ha, ha, it's safe for now." Qiu Ke said while gasping for air.

"Are you a fool? I've told you to stay away from the camera, and yet you're still standing so close looking for death!!!" The next second, Qiu Ke couldn't help but yell at the first mate.

"What on earth is that?" The first mate didn't pay attention to Qiu Ke's scolding at him. After all, if it hadn't been for Qiu Ke just now, his body and head might have been separated by now.

"It's Mr. Joseph's ability - seeing the world." Qiu Ke replied.

"What?!" the first mate was shocked.

Joseph? Isn't this the person who just had dinner with him before?

And this ability, is it really not the ability of the devil?

"Okay, I don't have time to explain so much to you. You have to remember what I say next, because I don't know when I may be caught by Mr. Joseph, so you must remember me carefully. Do you understand every word you say next?" Qiu Ke finished these words at an extremely fast speed.

Because of Qiu Ke, he was really anxious, because he really didn't know which light curtain Joseph would come out of at the next moment.

"First of all, as I just said, there are five cipher machines in total. You must find a way to crack these cipher machines. For details, you can look up. There are lights on those cipher machines as marks." Qiu Ke first told him Explained how to crack the cipher to get out.

"Secondly, remember to stay away from the light curtain, otherwise, it is impossible for someone to save you every time. There is also Mr. Joseph's ability - photographing the world. He will use a camera to capture a certain moment and copy it. Survivors and scenes at all times create a static world in the phase. If you are hit in the phase world, you will also be injured in the real world, so you must pay attention to this."

The first mate was listening carefully to what Juke said. He had to remember every word clearly to have a chance of surviving.

But suddenly he felt that something was wrong with Qiu Ke's face.

"Mr. Juke, what's wrong with you?"

However, what answered him was a mouthful of blood spurted out by Qiu Ke.

"Run, run, he's coming!!" Qiu Ke shouted to the first mate with blood at the corner of his mouth.

On the other side, Joseph, who had been in the world of images, thought that Juke must have finished introducing him to the first mate, so he hit the shadow in Juke's mirror image with one blow.

Of course, this blow was directly reflected on Qiu Ke in the real world, so Qiu Ke spat blood at the first mate's mouth.

The first mate was of course startled by the way Qiu Ke spit out blood.

But when he heard Qiu Ke asking him to abandon him and run away, the first mate couldn't do it.

The first mate has been accustomed to life and death after sailing on the sea for such a long time, but at the same time, he also knows that only by uniting together can there be a possibility of survival.

This is true when facing waves at sea, and it is also true when participating in this inexplicable game in this strange manor.

So he made a decision that Qiu Ke didn't expect. He picked up Qiu Ke and ran with him.

"Just hold on a little longer. I have raised my head and seen the light. There are only two cipher machines left. I will carry you to one of the cipher machines. The two of us will fix it together. It will be fine soon. The other On the other hand, Mr. Claude and another gentleman must also be repairing the cipher machine."

The first mate comforted Juke and ran to the nearest cipher machine, even though he could feel Juke getting colder on his back.

What he did really made Qiu Ke and Joseph, who had been in the world, not expect. They thought that driven by the instinct to escape, the first mate would definitely abandon Qiu Ke.

Because their original plan was to keep the puppet arranged by Claude and the manor owner repairing the machine, and let Juke contact the first mate, and tell him how to get out of here, and how to avoid Joseph's skills. When Juke turned everything away When he was told, Joseph came to kill Jack.

After Jieke is dealt with, Joseph can keep fishing until they repair the cipher machine and leave here.

In fact, what they did was, in today’s terms, catch one and release three.

But the first mate's actions disrupted their plans.

But I'm sorry, Mr. Jose Baden. Although your behavior is noble, if you let four people run away, the manor owner will definitely be a little dissatisfied. After all, it would be too obvious to let the water go.

Thinking this, Joseph swung his sword again and struck at the shadow of Juke in the world of the picture.

Meanwhile, the first mate finally ran to the nearest cipher machine.

But the first mate was frozen in place at this moment. To be precise, he felt it when he ran towards the cipher machine, but he still couldn't believe it.

He felt that Jiuke's chest no longer rose and fell, he felt that Jiuke's heart gradually stopped beating, and his body temperature became colder and colder.

The first mate couldn't believe it, but he had to believe it.

The savior who had just saved his life could not save him.

The first mate came to the cipher machine, put down the already cold Jack on his back, clasped his hands, closed his eyes, made a peaceful posture, and covered his face with his coat.

The first mate endured the grief in his heart while repairing the cipher machine as quickly as possible. Finally he heard the sound of the door being powered on and he could leave.

He just wanted to pick up Juke's body again and take him away from here.

But at this moment, he actually saw the scene of Joseph crawling out of the light curtain. It seemed that he was planning to go directly to the real world to arrest people.

Moreover, the location where Joseph came out was right next to Juke's body.

hateful!

Seeing Joseph constantly charging towards him with a knife, after repeated inner struggles, the first mate had no choice but to abandon Juke's body, rush to the door, and leave the place.

Watching Claude, the first mate, and the puppets prepared by the manor owner disappear on the other side of the gate.

Joseph also turned back and returned to the cipher machine where the first mate placed Juke's body.

At this time, Qiu Ke had already sat up and picked up the coat covered by the first mate.

Seeing this, Joseph stretched out his hand and tried to pull Qiu up.

Of course Qiu didn't refuse. He put his hand on Joseph's and asked Joseph to help him stand up.

At the same time, with his other hand, he picked up the first mate's coat that was covering him.

"Give it back to him sometime."
