As soon as Xie Er went crazy, Mo Jue on the other side also heard the movement.

While avoiding the attack, he hurriedly glanced over there, his heart suddenly stopped.

Xie Er immediately turned around as soon as he missed a hit, Shen Yongle just got up from the ground when he felt a gust of wind at his waist.

Xie Er didn't stab repeatedly, but slashed towards Shen Yongle's side with a horizontal knife, but was blocked by him in embarrassment, barely deflecting the trajectory of the blade.

The table knife scratched Shen Yongle's lace skirt, it was so sharp that it was unscientific.

Barrage: [Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!Leshen beware! ! ]

[Poke the kidney again! !Le Shen, did you ever hurt the heart of a girl in the system when you didn't know it? ]

[Le Shen back back back! ! ! ! ]

Shen Yongle instinctively turned back, but it was already too late.

Shen Yongle's own skills are quite average, and being able to deal with Xie Er for such a long time is entirely due to Carl's physical fitness and muscle memory. When seeing Xie Er's movements, his body will spontaneously make the most suitable reaction.

But to trigger a conditioned reflex, there must be a "condition" first.

Xie Er attacked from behind, Shen Yongle's prediction ability was greatly reduced, dodged the blade, but was quickly hit by Xie Er's elbow, fell out and rolled a few times before stopping, and then was restrained by Xie Er .

Mo Jue tried to rush over to help on the way, but Madam didn't leave him the slightest gap at all.

Xie Er grabbed Shen Yongle's neck with one hand, held the table knife in the other hand and raised it high, aiming at his eyes.

With a nervous exaggerated smile on his face, he announced excitedly: "Go to hell, liar!"

In the next second, a strong force hit him from the side of his head, kicking him into the air.

Gu Qingyan panted, and wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth: "Go to hell! Crazy!"

Dr. Gu had been helping Mo Jue to deal with his wife before, and when he saw Xie Er start attacking Shen Yongle, he quickly made eye contact with Mo Jue, and the master alone held the boss, while he rushed to save people at the speed of life and death.

For this reason, Dr. Gu also punched his wife hard. It felt like being stepped on by an elephant, and his internal organs were slightly displaced. When he coughed, his throat was full of bloody smell.

Xie Er was kicked far away by the head of the bag, and stopped when he hit the wall. There was a bloodstain on his forehead, which was wiped away by him, and his expression became more and more ferocious.

Shen Yongle reluctantly got up from the ground, and then fell back down.

His face changed.

He had just been caught by Shell, and Calgu Garcia was disabled.

Xie Er rushed forward again, Shen Yongle was pushed by Gu Qingyan, and the two of them fled in two directions in embarrassment.

Shen Yongle panted heavily: "This won't work, it's best to let the two of them consume each other for a while..."

Shen Yongle deeply realized how hindered his fighting power was, and silently made up his mind - if he can go out this time, he must practice fighting well.

It's not that the Sir has never tried to let the two bosses restrain each other before, but both of them are killer moves. Xie Er stabs at all kinds of fatal places whenever he has the opportunity, and the wife is even comparable to a martial arts master. Can kill.

As a result, the Duke and Dr. Gu had to go back and forth to save people, but every time the rescue was completed, not to mention not being grateful, but also being besieged by the two parties, it can be said to be very wronged.

Mo Jue had actually decided to change his tactics and broke through one by one, but it was not until Shen Yongle came that he successfully broke the deadlock for a short time.

Lord Jue frowned, listening to the exclamation of Shen Yongle and Gu Qingyan in his ears, he caught sight of the two avoiding more and more dangerously, even though there were 1 worries in his heart, his movements were not chaotic at all, and every move became more and more dangerous. fierce.

When Shen Yongle was stabbed by Xie Er, Gu Qingyan let out a scream, and even the crazy madam was briefly attracted attention - the lord finally found a flaw, stepped on the wall and volleyed into the air like an explosion, and slashed his leg on the side of the madam's neck, Successfully subdued people.

Before he had time to confirm his life and death, he turned his head and rushed to Shen Yongle's side in a few steps, pulling his arm, saving him from the next attack in a matter of seconds.

Shen Yongle leaned in the arms of the lord, his heart was beating wildly due to the violent fight, and he instantly felt at ease.

His face was covered in blood and ashes, and the wound he was covering with one hand was still bleeding continuously. At this moment, he suddenly let go of his grip, and his eyes turned black.

The barrage was so distressed: [Ah, ah, the Lord Sir is here! !Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! ! ]

[Le Shen must be fine! ! ! ]

Mo Jue gently pushed him back, and stepped forward to face Xie Er again.

Shen Yongle fell into Gu Qingyan's hands, and was immediately put down by him leaning against the wall, peeling off his clothes to check the wound.

Shen Yongle was still wearing the big skirt assigned by the person card. Gu Qingyan didn't think much about it, and tore it from the neckline until the wound on the abdomen could be exposed. After checking for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, the waist It’s relatively thick, but it didn’t hurt the internal organs... I’ll look for anti-inflammatory drugs later, and I’ll give you a simple bandage to stop the bleeding.”

Barrage: [It's so dangerous, so dangerous, it scared me to death! ]

[Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,

Shen Yongle took the time to scan his eyes, his heart warmed slightly, and originally wanted to comfort them a few words, but before he could speak, after confirming that he would not die for a while, the style of the barrage suddenly changed.

[... I seem to have seen some pink and tender little bumps just now? ]

[I also saw ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! ]

[Although the atmosphere is a bit wrong... But the picture is really a bit erotic...]

[My lord, come quickly!Your wife has been stared at! ]

Shen Yongle: "..."

My back hurts more.

After all, Sun Chenyu and the others were worried, and they kept looking into the distance. Seeing that the Sir was restraining Xie Er, they immediately ran over to help lift Shen Yongle up.

Shen Yongle lost a lot of blood, and was already a little confused, so he reluctantly raised his eyes to look at him.

Shen Yongle's eyes suddenly widened: "Be careful..."

Sun Chenyu approached him blankly: "What did you say?"

Gu Qingyan turned his head just in time, his canthus were shattered immediately, before he had time to hold anything, he raised his hand to block it.

"Ah!" The scissors pierced Gu Qingyan's palm, and then stabbed Sun Chenyu's head unabated. Fortunately, because he suddenly lowered his head, he missed the temple, and only made a cut in the back of his head.

The madam who didn't know when she woke up used one against three, and easily continued to push Gu Qingyan, Sun Chenyu, and Shen Yongle back in a string, holding the bloody scissors in both hands, and was about to hit Shen Yongle's throat .

Several people were in a mess, and Xie Xinyun and others who ran up behind wanted to help, but they didn't know where to start.

His Excellency was trying to catch Xie Er at the other end, but when he saw this, he took a few steps closer and supported his wife's shoulder with one hand: "Lele, don't move, Sun Chenyu hugged her waist and pushed back!... Xie Xinyun!"

Xie Xinyun immediately responded loudly: "Here!!"

The lord kicked Shell out, before he had time to think, "Have you brought a knife?! Stab your shoulder from behind! Avoid the vitals, be careful not to stab to death, hurry up!"

Gu Qingyan hurriedly said: "Give me the knife!! Xie Xinjun! Give me the knife and I will stab it!"

Xie Xinjun was trembling to make up the knife, but he was startled and confused for a moment, obediently handed him the knife, Gu Qingyan had no time to say, raised the knife, and stabbed his wife's heart from behind.

Only then did Xie Xinyun realize that the person who killed Madam would become Madam tomorrow morning. The situation was so chaotic just now that she almost forgot it for a moment.

At the same time, Sher, who was kicked flying, bumped into the decorative sculpture by the corridor, seemed to be knocked somewhere by the corner of the base, and lay on the ground for a long time without getting up.

Fan Yi and the others saw the opportunity, rushed up to restrain him, and tied him up with ropes.

Gu Qingyan apparently triggered the collapse of the character because he killed the boss again. The butler appeared from the other end of the corridor, and slowly approached with an uncomfortable smile.

However, Shen Yongle could no longer think about the next step.

The picture in front of him gradually blurred, and finally he couldn't hold on anymore, and lost consciousness...

The next day, Shen Yongle woke up amidst the sound of lengthy chanting.

He didn't react at first, and he was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was still in the dungeon.They were sitting in the auditorium of the castle now, the butler was standing on the stage and reading something, and he was wrapped up like a silkworm chrysalis, leaning on the Lord's arms, sitting in the hall and listening carefully.

Shell, in a tuxedo, sat in a high-backed chair in the middle of the stage.Next to him and at the back is a person wearing layers of gorgeous dresses... Gu Qingyan.

Doctor Gu's face was numb.

Seeing Shen Yongle waking up, his expression moved slightly, and he blinked at Mo Jue who was beside him.

The master instantly understood, and lowered his head to check Shen Yongle's situation: "Are you awake?"

He raised his hand to test the temperature on his forehead, heaved a sigh of relief, "No fever, don't force yourself, be careful to open the wound, drink some water first..."

Shen Yongle drank some water with his hands, and felt that his throat was very swollen and painful. It should be because of rolling around on the ground yesterday, the wound infection in his abdomen caused other inflammations in his body.

He sat for a while and gradually recovered his normal thinking: "What time is it now?"

Mo Jue: "Around five o'clock in the afternoon."

He briefly explained what happened after Shen Yongle passed out yesterday.

Xie Er was temporarily subdued and locked in the dungeon by the housekeeper. Gu Qingyan's hand was pierced with scissors. Like him, he developed a high fever in the second half of the night.

However, Gu Qingyan's wound was treated in a timely manner, slightly better than Shen Yongle's. Afterwards, everyone found commonly used medicines from the castle. Gu Qingyan himself was a surgeon, and he managed to give first aid to the two of them.

"I don't know if it's because of this experience, but Gu Qingyan didn't face any other tests, and he succeeded in replacing Madam in the morning," the lord said softly, "Because there was so much chaos last night, the maids didn't arrange everything until the afternoon. The succession ceremony has just started, and it is estimated that magic will be performed after it is over."

His tone seemed to be coaxing a child, "Can you use the item card? Don't force it. If you can't, you can replace it with me. I won't grab your card..."

Shen Yongle was not afraid of him stealing the card at all, but felt that he had to be useful anyway, and the Sir had to be distracted from fighting monsters. Deciphering magic sounds like mental work, and he should be able to do it.

The grandfather saw that he was still weak, and felt a little distressed: "Go to sleep first, and I will call you when the magic begins."

"En." Shen Yongle responded, and obediently closed his eyes.

I don't know if it's because he slept too much last night, but he can't sleep now, probably because he knows that the last moment is approaching, and Shen Yongle is always haunted by uneasiness for no reason.

It's already five o'clock... I didn't pay attention to it a few days ago, and I don't know exactly when the sun should set, but I always feel that it should be soon...

What will be the last magic trick?Can the show really be done before the sun goes down?

Shen Yongle shook his head, he would only become more and more anxious if he continued to think this way, in order to prevent himself from continuing to worry meaninglessly, Le Shen turned his head to sort out the flashes of inspiration from last night.

At that time, it seemed that something important was thought of.

Why did he feel that when Shell calmed down, Madam would also be able to calm down?

Because it is true that before Schell pointed out that his sister and his wife were fake, although the two would also create horrible magic and threaten the player's life, they seemed sensible and logical.

The impostor only goes mad after Shell says "you're fake" to his face.

Counterfeit?

Shen Yongle suddenly discovered his own logic error - Sher went crazy because of Capgras delusions, that is to say, her sister and wife were not really replaced, so why did they really become counterfeit?

Not only did the previous younger sister and wife strangely fit the setting of impostors, but they could also be replaced and impersonated again. For example, Gu Qingyan accidentally took her place because she killed her younger sister.

Wait a minute, in fact, all the owners of this dungeon were forcibly assigned a "position" from the very beginning. They were matched into pairs, and many of them even had their gender changed...

Shen Yongle's heartbeat quickened a little bit, and she couldn't help but open her eyes, and asked the lord in a low voice: "Generally, will the people who enter the dungeon follow any special settings?"

The Lord thought for a while: "Yan Ning has done some research, and generally selects characters at random under the background settings that match the dungeon. The higher the level of the dungeon, the more closely the selected character will be related to the main line. It’s possible that you yourself are one of the main characters.”

Fan Yi was sitting on the other side of him, turned his head when he heard the words, and said softly: "By the way, I read the medical record last night, and it said part of the reason why Cher got impostor syndrome was because of Jie Er's illness. death, and the other part is because his parents were married into a family, and the relationship was very cold, which led him to hope that his parents were fake and replaced by others..."

He casually said, "This is probably why the people he invites must 'love each other'."

Shen Yongle's heart suddenly trembled.

"Wait," Shen Yongle suddenly grabbed the corner of Sir Alex's clothes, "the character design is related to the main storyline...Pairing in pairs, the reason why players are paired in pairs is not only to match the background settings of the dungeon, but In order to comply with the mainline setting..."

Shen Yongle's heart was beating wildly.

"All of us, whether they are NPCs or players, have actually been influenced by Schell's thoughts and become what he believes."

Schell felt that his sister and mother were being impersonated, and the two began to go berserk and tried to attack him.

Schell feels that all marriages must be about love, so players are forced to pair up and switch genders.

Shen Yongle's hands and feet felt cold: "I seem to know what Leviathan means..."

Mo Jue frowned slightly, and held his hand comfortingly: "Huh?"

"Hobbes's Leviathan State," said Shen Yongle, ""Leviathan, or the Essence, Form and Power of the Church State and the Citizen State", also translated "Giant Theory", was created by Thomas Hobbes Works of Political Science."

Shen Yongle only took a quick glance, and vaguely remembered that the cover of the book was very unfriendly to trypophobia. It was a giant-like king. At first glance, one would think that there were many patterns on his body, but upon closer inspection, one would find that they were all Heads one by one.

Hobbes’ Leviathan country, roughly speaking, is a country that acts on the will of the sovereign—just like every NPC in this castle is actually acting on the will of Shell, or in other words, is being controlled by him. manipulation.

Shen Yongle: "All of us may be trapped in his imaginings. The phrase "the greatest magic trick" refers not to a certain magic...but to this imaginary city of Leviathan."

Mo Jue's memory has been specially trained, and because he paid attention to it deliberately, after a few days, he can still repeat the original words of the steward almost verbatim: "Welcome everyone to come to Bird Castle to participate in the Duke's succession ceremony, and at the same time appreciate the history of this century. The greatest magic trick."

Gu Qingyan asked when the performance would start.

The butler smiled and replied: "The succession ceremony is chosen to be on the fifth day, and the great magic will also end with it before the sun sets."

Shen Yongle: "He was talking about the ending time... The butler never said that the magic would start on the fifth day."

Shen Yongle raised his head and glanced at the setting sun that was about to fall into the horizon, and his back felt chills.

"In fact, the greatest magic has already begun."
