Krypton Life Game [Unlimited]

The butler remained silent.

Wang Liang couldn't help but ask, "Could it be because of love?"

She thought of the oil paintings in the studio on the third floor, especially the full-length portrait on the easel, the love between the strokes was so full that it was about to overflow.Those countless large and small paintings with mermaids as the main characters may be like the earl's secret crush, which can only be hidden in a secret and quiet corner, and can never be shown to others.

"Betraying the whole family for love, dedicating one's own life?" Xiao Qing sighed loudly, this is a bit too crazy.

"I don't think it's impossible," Shen Yunhai folded his arms, and said slowly, "First of all, I think there is one place you might miss..."

Xiao Qing raised his eyebrows suspiciously, showing an expression of willingness to hear more about it.

"He didn't dedicate his life. As the person in power of the Moonlight family generation, he was already a beneficiary who drank the mermaid's blood, and he was destined to be backlashed by the power of the mermaid's blood. In other words, whether he wants to or not, he He must die before his 40th birthday, and this result cannot be changed." Shen Yunhai said clearly,

"So, based on this result, regardless of the reason why he didn't have time to clean up all the blood of the Moonlight family, he chose to end it all when he died and let go of the love of his life. It was the most ideal time, and it was very fulfilling.”

Xiao Qing choked, "He killed so many people just to bury his love with him?"

Wang Liang shrugged, "What do you mean by that sentence? 'After I die, don't care about the flood.' He is about to die, so he will care about others? No, he probably only wants to care about the mermaid princess?"

Xiao Qing: ……………

The dimples on Song Ci's cheeks bulged quickly, "I don't know if it's love, but since Earl Moonlight is a business genius, it should be an instinctive reaction deep in his bones to weigh the pros and cons and calculate the gains and losses. He finally chose to do this, for sure. considered 'worth it'."

"This is not a place for discussion, let's go up first and talk about it later." Tang Si glanced lightly at the butler who had rarely made a sound since just now.

After taking the 'Meat and White Bones', the steward's body recovered a lot, but they didn't get a 'complete' prompt for their side quests.Tang Si guessed that in addition to the butler's physical condition, the criteria for completing the task may also be limited by the location, so he decided to take him back upstairs to try.

Both Xiao Qing and Shen Yunhai had good physical strength, so it was useless for Tang Si to do anything, the two took turns to take over, and carried the butler back upstairs.

Along the way, Song Ci kept chatting with the butler, inquiring about clues around the corner, and finally sorted out only a few useful ones.

The bottle in the pool contained the earl's blood, and every time they killed the blood of the Moonlight family, they would draw a bottle of that person's blood and return it to Sasha.Therefore, he obeyed the earl's order, took his blood after his death, and prepared to release Sasha with the key.

The so-called redemption operation is more like a ritual, and there is no need to really suck all the blood from the man and give it to Sasha to drink.

The black collar in the dungeon was indeed used to lock Sasha. She didn't believe that the butler was here to let her go, so after the collar was opened, she took advantage of the butler's inattention and broke his head and escaped.

After sending the butler back to the room, he finally spoke again.

The butler took out a diary decorated with brass flower vines from the bedside table, and handed it to everyone solemnly, "I am getting old, and the earl ordered me to release Sasha after he died, and then put the diary Leave it to her, let me forget about it. Didn't you say that Sasha was resting in another room before, can you help me give her the earl's diary?"

[The final side mission "The Butler in Dying Life" has been completed.Obtain the task reward item "Earl's Diary". 】

When Song Ci took the diary, everyone's light screens popped up to remind them to complete the side mission.

This is the task reward item?Everyone looked at the notebook in Song Ci's hand in unison.

If you look carefully, those brass vines are not completely attached to the cowhide cover of the diary, but more like a hollowed-out carved box, which 'locks' the diary in the box.Those complicated flower branches spread out, making people dazzled, and Song Ci couldn't find a place to open the box for a while.

He was about to turn over the diary to take a look, when the butler suddenly said, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Song Ci raised her head, and saw a polite smile on the butler's face, and repeated the sentence of urging people to speak, "Do you have anything else to do?"

"No, you have a good rest." Song Ci said goodbye to the housekeeper awkwardly, then turned and left.Everyone also retreated in desperation, almost forgetting that this is the butler's bedroom, it would be a bit too much to open things in front of others.

After leaving the butler's bedroom, everyone randomly found an empty room next to them, and gathered together to study the diary.

Soon, they found the keyhole in the stamen of a flower on the back of the diary.

"Try the little key left!" Wang Liang stomped her feet excitedly.The two keys they got from the armor room, the big one opened the mechanism in the fireplace, the small one has not been used yet.This size seems to be a perfect match for that small key.

Tang Si took out the key and handed it to Song Ci. Song Ci raised his hand and gave it to the keyhole in the stamen, twisted it left and right, the lock cylinder made a crisp 'click' sound, and the copper box popped open, revealing the cowhide-covered diary inside. Ben fell on his lap.

Everyone's breathing froze. The Earl's diary should be able to solve all their doubts, right?

The diary is from about ten years ago.

In the first diary, the earl recalled his father's death a few years ago, he took over the Moonlight Castle, and learned that the mermaid princess was still alive, and the first time he met Sasha.

'The dim yellow light hit her body, but it couldn't hide her graceful outline.The moment she turned her head, the entire water prison was dazzling.

At that moment, I realized that in front of the ultimate beauty, all the words in the world are pale and powerless.

Like a child who has never seen the world, I was immediately captured by her. '

'I know I don't deserve her love, and I can't expect her forgiveness, but I thought, at least I can give her back her freedom. '

'I couldn't let her go.Sasha told me that the cursed covenant imprisoned her, and God will not forgive her, nor will we. '

The count rummaged through the ancestor's notes frantically, and finally found the relevant records of the cursed covenant.

It was a kind of transaction of drinking poison to quench thirst.

Mermaid blood endows them with talents and a bright future that are different from ordinary people. As a price, what they need to pay is their own lifespan.

If you want to lift the curse, you need to return all the blood that Sasha has shed over the years, without leaving a drop.

Only at the cost of the lives of all members of the Moonlight family who have inherited the blood of the mermaid, can the cruel transaction that started a hundred years ago be buried and everything end here.

Otherwise, after a hundred years, she who originally had a long lifespan will go berserk and die.

At that time, the Earl knew how cruel things his family had done, and how dirty his blood was.

After suffering for a long time and struggling for a while, he finally made up his mind.

He wanted to set Sasha free, and he wanted to free the whole family.

He touched his brother first, and then his own children.He pushed his eldest son off the cliff, but he didn't expect the corpse to be eaten by wild beasts, and finally found a little blood on the remaining limbs.

Later, for the convenience of taking blood and suppressing the souls of those children, he buried the other children under the rose bushes according to the method written in the ancestor's handbook.

At the same time, he also began to hire people to investigate the clansmen who had moved out, including the illegitimate children of various generations of earls who had wandered outside.

When Fa's wife found out that he had killed her own child, she became insane, cut off the hand of the youngest son, and cursed him with black magic.During the dispute, he killed her by mistake.

A year later, he married his second wife in order to use local forces to find the clansmen who had moved out.Not long after getting the clue, he got divorced.

A few years later, he took a third wife for similar reasons.Knowing that he was going to die soon, the third wife refused to divorce, so she packed her bags and went back to her mother's house to have a good time, waiting for him to get her share of inheritance after his death.

Earl Moonlight also began to plan the final 'sacrifice' trap.

In the last diary entry, Earl Moonlight only wrote one sentence.

'Born into this blood-filthy family, I may not be destined for a happy ending,

But I hope she can have a good ending. '

"Is he crazy about love?" After reading the diary, Xiao Qing couldn't help but sympathize with Earl Moonlight.

"Take other people's lives in exchange for the freedom of your own goddess. Isn't that a devil? Especially his children and brothers are among them! Even if you put on a layer of love, it can't change this essence." Wang Liang disagreed. .

When they were arguing, Song Ci frowned tightly all the time, Tang Si patted his gauze cap lightly, "What's wrong?"

"I don't know, I just feel a little awkward."

"Awkward?" Tang Si's amber eyes flickered slightly.

Song Ci nodded, and the skin on the chin and neck shone with a white jade-like luster under the wall lamp, "But, I can't tell what's wrong...Let me read it again while I still have time."

Song Ci held the diary and started to read it from the beginning.

"Ding dong~"

It didn't take long before the announcement and the announcement that symbolized the end of the escape match sounded, and the tone was also unprecedentedly brisk.

"The escape match is officially over, the current number of survivors is 11, congratulations to all of you who have won the final victory and become the heirs of Earl Moonlight's legacy!

Please gather at the lobby on the first floor within 10 minutes to participate in your grand dinner. "

After listening to the broadcast, Xiao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank God, it's finally over!"

When the five of them rushed to the first floor, a luxurious long table had already been set up at the stairway.

Although the dishes on the table looked extremely rich, what was extremely uncomfortable was that the hill of roses was still piled up in place and had not been cleaned up.The red background is gorgeous and weird.

A lot of people were already sitting at the long table, except for the girl with double ponytails, the rest of the finalists had been replaced. What surprised Song Ci the most was that the number 4 who had dealt with him before was also there, and she was sitting there. Beside the pair of ponytails, there is chatting and chatting. It seems that the two seem to be teammates.

Spotting Song Ci, No. 4 greeted him warmly with a wave.

In addition to the players, there were also youths in military uniforms, the lawyer from the first night, and a strange beautiful young woman sitting on the other side of the table.

The five of them walked to the empty seats beside the long table and sat down. Song Ci deliberately sat in the seat next to No. 4.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were resurrected, so I didn't have time to give you the news." Song Ci lowered her voice and explained to him embarrassingly.

"It's none of your business. In fact, I was resurrected two hours ago. Besides, as long as the final result passes the test!" No. 4 boldly slapped Song Ci on the back, so hard that he almost missed Song Ci. send away.

Seeing Song Ci's painful mask, No. 4 realized that he had slapped someone in pain, and retracted his hand embarrassingly under Tang Si's indifferent gaze, "Sorry, my hands are a bit strong."

At this time, the youth in military uniform raised his wine glass, "Come on, congratulations to everyone who won the final and became one of the heirs of the legacy."

The players also cooperated and raised the wine glasses in front of them.

"give me back!"

"give me back!"

Suddenly there was a shrill cry from above everyone's heads!

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The wine glasses in everyone's hands and the chandelier above their heads exploded together amidst the long and shrill shouts, and shattered into glass shards.

Drinks and crumbs were everywhere.

Tang Si stretched out his hand to protect Song Ci into his arms.

"On the painting on the stairs!" someone screamed.

Song Ci raised her head, and saw a blond maid half-hanging on the huge oil painting from the first floor to the second floor. Welling out of the skin, it covered her cheeks, neck and arms.

That terrifying appearance is no less than that of the legendary Soul Suffering Ghost!

Mermaid?Song Ci looked at the swaying body in mid-air in disbelief, what happened to her?

"Here again, isn't it already over?" Wang Liang said depressedly.

In the next second, the blond maid landed on the dining table and reached out to attack Wang Liang who had spoken just now.

Tang Si shot immediately.

"Crack!" The maid's arm cracked under Tang Si's attack, but she didn't seem to feel any pain. After standing still, she still used her broken arm to rush forward again in a strange bending posture.

The girl with two ponytails stabbed her in the abdomen, but she didn't even frown.

"Oops, she's gone berserk!" No. 4's expression changed drastically, and she shouted loudly.

The BOSS in the mad state is immortal and cannot be defeated at all!

"Quick, give her the diary!" Xiao Qing remembered the mission items in their hands.

Song Ci hurriedly threw the diary in her hand over.

Seeing the diary, the maid stopped her movements and looked down at the notebook at her feet.

"It works!" Xiao Qing heaved a sigh of relief.

However, two seconds later, the maid rushed towards everyone again!

"give me back!"

Her mournful shout echoed in the hall, making people's nerves tense like a string.

"What exactly does she want?" Xiao Qing, who was hiding behind the pillar, covered her ears, extremely puzzled.

"Blood, could it be blood?" Wang Liang next to her recalled the section in her diary that said "he died after going mad for a hundred years".

"Didn't she get the count's blood? Everyone else was killed by the count before?"

"There must be something else, right? Otherwise, why would she go crazy?"

In the blink of an eye, along with the collapsed conversation between the two, several fragments flashed through Song Ci's mind.

[On Saturday afternoon, the earl's eight children woke up from their afternoon nap and went to play in the playground in the side garden...]

【The earl's back garden is full of beautiful red roses and white roses... The earl gave one to the countess, and put the remaining three on the wide-brimmed top hat for his three daughters. 】

【He pushed his elder son off the cliff, but he didn't expect the corpse to be eaten by wild beasts...】

Eight children, three girls and five boys.The body of the eldest son was almost eaten up by wild beasts, and two women and three men were buried under the rose bushes, that is to say, there were still two children missing!A man and a woman!

What the mermaid wants is the blood of those two people! ! ! ! !
