Forced to bind with escape game NPC [unlimited]

King Bobbys looked down at Jianqi and Bran in the audience, and only stayed for a few seconds when he saw the parrot on Jianqi's shoulder. Then he waved his hand, and one attendant followed another The entrance brought two men.

One of the two men was round and slender, and the other was as slender as a bamboo pole. They each wore an orange-red pointed wizard hat.

"His Royal Highness, these two are witches... lord mages I invited from a neighboring country." The attendant looked at Qi'an and said to them, "I think these two are also careful about our Bosby Dynasty and want to replace them." Our royal family is the magician who broke the curse."

After the attendant finished speaking, both Bran and Jianqi took another look at the two men.This pair of fat man and thin man were dressed in coffee-colored robes. Although they were exaggerated, they did fit the so-called magician's setting.

Qi Anqi was standing on the far left, and the pair of men were on the right. She saw the same answer as her from Bran's eyes on the right-these two people were 99% the other two players.

After the servant walked to the king's seat with small steps, he raised his voice and said: "Four respected master magicians, you should already know the purpose of inviting you here. Whoever can lift the curse of our dynasty, especially our prince Whoever finds out His Highness's recent abnormalities will get the gold coins rewarded by the king."

His tone seemed to be respectful, but the contemptuous and somewhat fearful eyes of the king told Qi Anqi that it was obviously not the case.

Before they came, they had learned from Lu Qi that the current king attributed all the troubles of the family to the curse of the wizard. He hated and feared the wizard, so he ordered the arrest of the wizard in the whole city. The people who cast spells, let him meet in person, probably because the only prince in this country is too seriously ill.

"Then what if we can't do it?" The fat man next to him suddenly asked.

The attendant froze for a moment, and even King Bosby frowned in disgust, which made the king, who was not very well-looking, look a little hideous.Before the attendant could speak, he said, "The ones who can't do it must be the evil wizards who cast the curse, so kill them all."

This sentence did not cause any uneasy expressions on the two men's faces. They looked at each other and twitched the corners of their mouths in disdain.Although the two brothers can't be called high-end players, they are veteran players who have experienced many battles. When they saw the woman and the child, they also realized that there are more players than them here. This dungeon is likely to be a faction dungeon. There is another camp of enemies, and although this woman and child are in the same camp as them at the moment, it does not mean that they must be their companions.

The two brothers called each other fat and thin. On the first day they entered the dungeon, they discovered that in the eyes of other people, including the player, they dressed like the local residents except themselves.After collecting information and seeing this attendant, a system task was triggered.

Kingship or priesthood?Of course the king is the biggest, what is religion, who believes in that ghost, so they chose the king's side without hesitation, took the initiative to find this attendant, and were naturally brought before the king.

Fatty glanced at the two people around him. It seems that they also chose the side of the king. Then they will definitely seek cooperation with them in the future, but they must not have imagined that even if they choose the same player, there will be failures and successes. Not only will they not be their companions, but they will also be their enemies.

Hearing what the king said, the fat man and the thin man naturally didn't panic at all. At least at this moment, their opponents were these two thin women and children. They obviously didn't bring or find CP, and their innate physical strength and force were on par with them. It's a bit short, if you rely on your mind alone, you may not be able to get benefits from them.

The fat man has high strength, and the thin man thinks he has a good head. He has never encountered any big walls so far. It is easy to deal with two women and children with long hair and short knowledge.

Thinking about it this way, the king's words fell on deaf ears to them, and there are already players who will take their place at the bottom.

"Four master magicians, come with me, and I will take you to meet His Royal Highness the Prince."

The attendants led the way, and Jianqi and Bran didn't say a word during this process. The parrot listened to the pope very well and landed quietly on Jianqi's arrow. They walked through the huge palace corridor and stepped on the castle stairs. .

On the stairs, portraits of the Bosby family have different expressions, but these kings are the same as the current kings, with prominent chins and eyes, and significant genetics.

"Hey! Are you guys players?" The thin man leaned closer to Qi Anqi and asked.

The fat man glanced at the skinny man, and secretly gloated. His brother was about to get into trouble again.

Seeing that these two people ignored him, the thin man still smiled: "You don't need to be hostile to us, this is a confrontation game, and we are in the same camp."

This act of giving information can easily make the opponent take it lightly, but it is normal for players to be on guard against each other in the game.

The thin man took another step forward: "People from the other camp are in the dark now, and it will be bad if they secretly trip us up and put us at a disadvantage."

First to show goodwill, and then to explain that there is a common enemy, the thin man thinks that most people will not reject this kind of rhetoric, and these two people are still a vulnerable group, but Qi An gave him a look: "You are blocking the way. "

After Qi An chimed, the little parrot on his shoulder flew up and flapped its wings twice towards the thin man, almost hitting his cheek.

The thin man had to step back a step: "..."

The thin man turned his head in embarrassment, watching the fat man mouthed a word to him: I don't know what to do.

Yes, why are you so ignorant?Maybe they sent a kind heart and took them to pass the customs together.

Prince Bosby's residence was located on the third floor of the castle. From a distance, they saw a row of frightened people standing in the corridor.

"These are useless doctors who came to treat His Highness the Prince." The attendant explained, he led the four players to the door, and greeted them respectfully, "Good afternoon, Your Highness, I have brought a new... Doctors, they will definitely take care of your illness."

A mug was thrown from the room and smashed against the wall, wiping the servant's face.

"Let them go, all of them! Let Catherine come!"

Behind the dense layers of white gauze in the room, came the voice of a somewhat inarticulate, somewhat feminine man.

"Your Highness, the doctor my lord king asked me to bring, they will definitely take care of your illness." The attendant made a gesture of invitation while speaking, and forcefully let them enter the prince's room.

The maid opened the gauze curtain, revealing the man curled up on the bed. He was terrified just like last night.

Qi Anqi and Bran looked at each other.That's right, this is the person.This Prince Bosby is the same person as the thrush-mouthed man who appeared in that world last night.

The prince's illness has a lot to do with that world.

"Please don't mind, adults. His Royal Highness has been resisting doctors since his illness worsened two weeks ago." The attendant asked the maids to go out, and then drew half of the curtains to block the harsh sunlight outside the window.

"Don't! Don't pull it up!" Prince Bosby jumped up from the bed suddenly, pushed the attendant away, and rolled up the curtain again.

The attendant took two steps back helplessly: "Please forgive me, Your Highness, this room is too bright, and you need to have a good rest."

"I don't need it, I don't need to rest!" His Royal Highness shook his head, "I just need Catherine!"

The attendant shook his head helplessly, and walked to the door to stand by, leaving room for the four players.

The fat man and the thin man looked at each other knowingly, and took out a roll of parchment and a quill from the brown sheepskin bag under the robe.The sheepskin scroll and the quill are a bundled item called the [Interrogation Record Sheet]. Even a medical idiot can use this item to judge the condition.

When the fat man and the thin man asked the prince questions, Qi Anqi first went to the doctors outside the door: "Can I tell you what you know about the prince's condition?"

After understanding the doctors' description of the prince's condition, Qi Anqi turned to the attendant and asked, "Who is Catherine?"

This question made the attendant look hesitant.

When he was hesitating whether to say something, a woman in a luxurious dress walked into the room with her head held high as if no one was there.

"How's Charlie doing today?" the young woman asked.

"It's still the same as yesterday, Your Royal Highness." The attendant replied.

The princess went straight to Prince Poppys, and waved her hands in distaste at the fat and thin ones: "Useless doctor."

This sentence aroused the dissatisfaction of the fat man. He was about to say something when the thin man stopped him: "Don't be as knowledgeable as an NPC."

"Is she Catherine?" Bran whispered.

"I don't think so." Qi An replied, "If Catherine was a princess, she wouldn't make it so difficult for an attendant to say."

And Prince Poppy's expression didn't look like he saw the "Catherine" who was thinking about it day and night. He glanced at the princess and looked away sickly.

"Your Highness, you can't do this, you have to rest and take care of your illness." The princess persuaded softly.

"I can't rest, I don't want to go there!" insisted the prince.Under the sun, his eye sockets were covered with a layer of haze, like a young man who has stayed up for several nights playing games.

"What are you talking about, Your Highness, you have never been anywhere, you are having a nightmare."

Qi Anqi learned from the doctor that the prince insisted that he would be sent to a city with monsters while he was sleeping, and there was a huge monster there that would follow him wherever he fled.And the doctors observed the prince in shifts in the middle of the night. Not to mention the monster, the prince lay in bed all night, most of the time was convulsed, and the other part of the time was talking in his sleep, and he never went out at all.

So this prince is different from them. When he was in that world, his body was still in this world, but their bodies would also go there together.

Qi Anqi saw the fat man and the thin man lowered their heads to study the contents on a piece of parchment, and then looked at each other in bewilderment.

That parchment is obviously a prop, but obviously not for this copy.

The prince was indeed caught in some kind of magic or curse, and breaking the curse was the key to curing the prince's illness.

After Qi Anqi came to this conclusion, she looked at the princess sitting by the bed, she looked away for a moment and then looked away.

"May we search the castle?" she asked the squire.

"This..." The attendant hesitated again.

"According to my observation, His Royal Highness is indeed cursed, but I have to search the entire castle to determine whether the curse is placed on the entire royal family or on this castle." Jian Qi said clearly, even Bran Can't help but glance at her.

For this very convincing reason, the attendant immediately asked the king for instructions and got permission.

"You can search the castle, but not the tower."

"Why? What if that curse was cast on the tower?" Qi An asked.

"..." The servant choked.

Seeing that the attendant faltered for a while and didn't say why, Qi Anqi gave a step: "Okay, then let's search other places first."

After leaving the prince's bedchamber, Bran asked, "What are we looking for?"

"Find someone, let's go find Catherine." Jian Qi raised the corners of his lips, "Go directly to the tower."

***

The Bosby family's castle is very large, and with the king's permission, they can move freely in the castle, but obviously, the attendants and servants don't seem to like them as magicians, and they also agree that the royal family's bad luck is related to the curse.

"Do you think those two players have been to that world?" Jian asked Bran.

"I think they have." Bran nodded. "The game is fair."

The game is fair, so fair that no one is favored.This is Bran's perception of the game for a long time.

According to the attendant, these two players are from other countries, so even if they entered that world last night, they were in two areas with them, but tonight it is uncertain.

"It seems they think we have also chosen imperial power."

They walked along the corridors covered with frescoes all the way to the side of the castle, where there was an outdoor corridor leading to the tower.

Hearing what Qi Anqi said here, Bran clenched and loosened his fists uncomfortably, and asked as calmly as possible: "Are you going to pretend to cooperate with them?"

Now these two men regard them as being on the same side as them. Once night comes, when only they appear in that world, maybe they will become suspicious.

Qi'an glanced at Bran and blinked: "Why would you think so, of course I don't, if I do, I'll mention it first, and it's the paid one." She noticed that at the beginning The two men looked at them as if they were looking at two chickens.If you take the initiative to cooperate, you must be uneasy and kind.

"..." Bran breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, "Then..."

"That's naturally to convince them that there are players who have chosen the other side."

After saying this, Qi Anqi and Bran had already stopped in front of the tower, and the two soldiers were stationed in front of the tower gate.

"No entry into the tower is allowed without the king's password." The soldier crossed his metal spears in front of the door.

Bran whispered to Qi Anqi: "I can deal with them."

"No, it's getting dark." Qi Anqi gently rubbed Bran's head, "Little girl, don't always solve this and that." Why didn't she realize that she met a little wolf? cubs.

Bran let out an "oh", and stroked the top of his hair that had been rubbed by Jianqi.

After dinner, the two men expressed their intention to cooperate with Qi Anqi and the others again.

"Let's put it this way, did you also go to the 'inside' world last night? There is nothing there, I guess there are only dungeon monsters." The thin man started lobbying again, "We only came to this country today, and you were the last night. Didn't you meet other players in that world?"

Qi Anqi's eyes swept across the thin man's face, and he showed a "I knew it" look: "Since it is a confrontation game, the main battlefield may be in any world, I guess it is the 'inner' world first, And our enemies include monsters and players." From Qi Anqi's expression, the thin man knew that there were indeed other players in that world that they had never seen before.

Qi An chimed with a "hmm" and took Bran away.

"Hey!" The fat man couldn't help but tried to stop the two people. If the thin man couldn't make sense, he could continue talking with his fists.

The thin man winked at him, not in a hurry now, the fat man just didn't use his hands.

In the room, the two did not sleep this time, waiting to enter that world.

"I hate those two men." Bran, who was sitting on the edge of the bed dangling his legs, suddenly said.

"Intuition?" Qi Anqi didn't know that Bran's intuition was used in other places today, she added, "Me too."

"Me too, me too!"

Both Jianqi and Bran turned their heads to look at the blue and white parrot standing on the balcony. It is now about the size of a budgie.

"Huh? It can talk, I thought it could only quack." Bran said in surprise.

The parrot flapped its wings twice in protest: "Quack!"

"Oh, it understands us." Bran stretched out his hand to tease it, and the parrot continued to protest while jumping back two steps.

Qi Anqi's eyes fell on the parrot and stared at it for a moment, and after hearing the parrot flinch a little, he said, "Since you can understand, then you heard everything we talked about."

The little parrot rolled its eyes, what did they talk about?They didn't talk about anything.

"Not only did you hear it, but you also remembered it." Qi Anqi looked at the parrot and said affirmatively.

"I don't, I don't!" The parrot screamed twice, then jumped to the corner of the window sill.

Only then did Qi Anqi put his legs crossed on the bed on the ground: "Let's go, go and see our Prince Thrushcross."

Bran: "The Thrushcross Prince?"

Qi An chirped: "..." The nickname was a slip of the tongue.

Bran reacted for a few seconds, then burst out laughing, she thought it did.

Seeing them get up, the little parrot struggled for a moment, but followed. After all, this was the order of that lord.

Qi An chided them not to approach the door of the prince's bedroom, but to observe from a distance. The attendants and doctors were guarding the door at this time, and they would not let them approach easily.

Around midnight, the palace began to change. Everything seemed to have faded into a gray silence. The magnificent wall decorations collapsed, the white walls were stained, and the lamp holders on the left and right of the corridor were broken.

The doctor and attendants at the door disappeared in an instant, and the parrot on his shoulder disappeared out of thin air. Qi Anqi turned on the flashlight he carried with him, ran over and opened the door of the bedroom.

In the room, the broken windows were open, the collapsed bed was empty, and the prince had disappeared.

The world outside the window was pitch black, and the sound of wolves howling, giants stomping on the ground, and a few inconspicuous crows could be heard in the distance.

"Want to find it?" Bran asked.

"No rush." ​​Qi Anqi scanned the room and said with a smile, "Let's go to the tower first."

This time, there were no more guards at the gate of the tower, the lock had already been broken, and the door was hanging fragile on half of its hinge, and fell to the ground with a slight heap.

After entering the tower, there is a staircase extending upwards to the top of the tower, and there is also a narrow passage extending downwards, the width of which can pass two people at most.Qi Anqi and Bran walked along the passage all the way to the innermost part, only to find that the underground here is a prison.

The whole prison is in the shape of "Hui", with prisons on almost all four sides and in the middle.

"Will Catherine be kept here?" Bran looked around, the first time she had seen such a place.

"It's hard to say." Qi Anqi walked into the nearest prison, bent down to check the dark stains on the wall, which looked like dried blood, "Why did a country of this size build prisons and royal residences in the same place?" one place?"

Bran curled his lips: "There may be some bloody feud, you have to take care of it yourself to be at ease."

After inspecting the prison, Jianqi and Bran returned to the ground.

From a distance, they saw a bright light in the castle.

"It's those two people." Qi Anqi carefully turned off the flashlight in his hand.

There is still the moon tonight, and it is not too inconvenient to only have natural light outside.

At this time, in the city not far away, yesterday's wolf bark was heard. After the wolf bark, the lights in the castle stopped for a moment, and then ran towards the direction of the wolf bark.

But soon, when the fat man and the thin man saw clearly what the huge monster was on the tower, they couldn't help but took a few steps back, and the light also flickered.

At this time, lightning flashed across the sky again, but there were no dark clouds from yesterday, and the clouds in the sky still tended to be transparent.There was a piercing sound, as if something pierced through the clouds and pierced the sky, appearing above the castle.

Qi Anqi raised his head and saw a huge bird and beast appearing in the sky. It was no smaller than a two-headed wolf. It had a pair of wings extending to the sky and a huge body. It had the shape of a mammal, but also had the shape of a bird. feather.

Bran: "What's that?"

Qi An whispered: "Don't move, it's night, it might not see us, unless..."

"Unless what?" Bran asked.

Qi An said: "It is a nocturnal creature, do you know about owls?"

Bran: "..."

Just as Qi Anqi finished his sentence, the bird and beast in the night sky seemed to have found something after looking around, and began to fly towards the low altitude. It had a pair of silver horns on its head, which were very short. From time to time, a silvery white light is reflected.

At this time, they were in the courtyard outside the tower, already a short distance away from the tower, and the gate of the castle was on the other side.

Jian Qi led Bran back a few steps cautiously, trying to hide under the shadow of a tree, but just as they moved, the bird and beast seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly fell, plunged into the center of the castle, stabilizing landed in front of the two.

This distance was enough for Qi Anqi to see clearly that it was a blue-black griffin with a pair of broken silver horns on its head.

And this Gryphon, with its head tilted at this time, stared motionlessly at the two people under the tree.
