[Comprehensive] The Hundred Stories of Qingxingdeng

Chapter 55

The game chosen by White Wolf belongs to one of the summoning game categories. The name is "Throne", a summoning battle game adapted from many folklore of the ancient earth.

The white wolf who just entered the game first saw a character building page, where players can freely create their own game character appearance.However, considering that the vast majority of human beings do not have the ability to be a sculptor, the game also considerately gives the option of "adjusting based on their own appearance".

Bai Lang, who never played games before and came to the future world and only came into contact with "Holographic Overwatch", a game that does not require character creation, took a little time to figure out what these options are. In the end, Bai Lang Naturally, he chose to enter the game with his own body shape, and all other options were skipped.

The White Wolf is then cast into a world that feels new and real.

This is a very huge castle-shaped building. The outside of the castle is sunny, but the inside of the castle is dark and dark.White Wolf looked down at himself, and found that he was wearing a very standard maid outfit and sitting in a double room.

This place seems to be a room specially reserved for maids, the space is not too big but it is also extremely tidy.

The white wolf observed for a week and made sure that the other bed in this room was not used by anyone.To be precise, it may have been unused for a while.

Just when White Wolf was wondering, a system prompt popped up, a very short sentence.

System prompt: Please get your envoy in Novice Village, please note that you need to be extra careful.

White Wolf has read this sentence many times, and there are only two pieces of information that can be confirmed.The first is that she is now in Novice Village, and the second is that she needs to be extra careful.

Although I still feel a little at a loss, there is always nothing wrong with being careful.

White Wolf quickly accepted his current state, put aside many irrelevant issues in his mind, and began to try to explore the "novice village".

She still remembers that when she first entered the game, she read some instructions given by the system and messages from old players, which mentioned that all novices who just entered the game will be randomly placed on different maps, and have the identity given by the system .It is said that in the novice village of this game, the death rate of novices is very high. Whether they can get their own envoy in the end, as well as the attribute level of the envoy, all depend on luck.

Among the old players' messages, there was one thing that was mentioned many times.

If the novice has determined the envoy attribute he will get and is not satisfied with it, he can return to the game character page through death, and the system will randomly assign a different map again.

These words were repeatedly mentioned by the old players in an extremely playful tone, as if they really wanted to see the new players collapsed, and it would not make people feel good if such a thing really happened.Of course, if a new player is killed in the novice village, it will automatically return to the character page, and it will be considered that the novice mission has failed. If you want to enter the game, you need to reassign the map again to perform the novice mission.

The white wolf in the maid outfit went through all the information he saw in his mind, and then he raised his hand and pushed open the door.After the door was opened, the white wolf saw an extremely long corridor, which was full of Western Barot style.Although there are many windows on the left wall, the light shining through the glass into the corridor seems to be cold.

After stepping out of the room, White Wolf needs to be very careful about the weight of his feet landing, so as not to let the sound of footsteps resound in such an empty corridor.

She saw many unlit candlesticks on the walls, as well as many exquisite carvings and vases and other decorations placed in appropriate places.

Everything here looks so exquisite and full of sense of the times, but the overall tone here is too dark, this castle gives people a sense of depression, so that people living here can't help but want to relax themselves the sound of.

The white wolf just walked forward along the aisle, and then met a butler with a serious face, gray hair, and exquisite and neat clothes.The butler looked at the white wolf with stern eyes, and he came to the white wolf and stopped silently. He didn't raise his voice, but it could make people feel that he was not satisfied with the white wolf's "negligence of duty", " You shouldn't be here at this time."

The white wolf looked at the butler and didn't speak, suddenly appeared in such a place, it seemed that the butler in front of him also knew her, and the white wolf couldn't be sure if there would be any problems if he just said any reason.

Fortunately, the butler didn't pursue the reason why the white wolf was here, but just signaled the white wolf to follow him.

The gray-haired butler led the white wolf through one spacious room after another, through one door after another, and then up the stairs in the castle.

While walking, the housekeeper told White Wolf what she needed to do now.

"It's a pity that Ellie doesn't know where she went. There is no one to take care of the master now. I have been thinking about who should be transferred to the master's clothes. I chose you after very careful consideration, so I hope you don't let me I'm disappointed, and don't make the master feel any unhappiness." Speaking of this, the butler paused, and glanced at Bai Lang from the corner of his eye.

There was no extra emotion in that look, and even the coldness was hard to detect, as if the white wolf was not a person but an object.

The butler nodded in satisfaction when he saw the white wolf nodding his head in response, and then began to tell the white wolf what things to pay attention to when taking care of the master, especially emphasizing that the tomato juice that the master drinks every day before going to bed must be delivered to the master. Beside, "That's the master's favorite drink, there can't be any difference, do you understand?"

The butler said this very solemnly, and he turned his eyes away only after he was sure that the white wolf understood.

In this way, after the butler had almost finished speaking, they also arrived outside the room of the owner of the ancient castle.

The butler stood straight in the master's room, raised his hand and knocked on the door and called out, "Master, I have brought a new maid."

After a while, a not-so-clear voice came from the room, "Come in." It was just two words, but the white wolf could hear the feeling of old age.

When the door of the master's room was opened, the white wolf clearly felt the change in the housekeeper.The butler became more silent and rigorous, like a machine without any emotion, he brought the white wolf in, stood beside the master's huge and luxurious bed with black as the main color, and said to the master lying on the bed : "Master, it's time for you to get up."

After the butler finished speaking, he waited for a while, and saw the owner lying on the bed raised his hand through the bed curtain. The butler took the initiative to move forward and opened the bed curtain, and then the pupils of the white wolf constricted, and the hair on the back of the neck All stood up.

For a moment, the white wolf wanted to take out his own bow and arrow to kill the owner of the castle in front of him, because the smell of blood on this person was too strong.Even if this person cleans himself extremely clean, the smell of blood on his body is so strong that it seems to soak into the bone marrow. Even the many killing gods that White Wolf has seen in the past may not leave such a strong smell of blood on his body. In their bones, those people were more murderous and evil.Unlike the person in front of him, it really smells like blood.

But she doesn't have a bow and arrow in her hands now, and this is just a virtual game.

Besides, maybe this person is not a murderous guy, and there are many special professionals who have a very strong smell of blood.

Thinking like this, the white wolf adjusted his breathing, stood aside like an ordinary maid, and stepped forward to help when needed.

From the point of view of ordinary people, the master who is about to take over the care of the white wolf is just a very majestic and scary man.

From the master's voice, the white wolf could hear the old age, but after actually seeing the master's appearance, he found that he didn't look very old.There are no age spots on the face, and even the hair on that end is black and very beautiful.If it weren't for the person's demeanor and many small details to determine his age, at the first sight of him, most people would think that he was only 50 or [-] years old.

But the white wolf felt that the master should be about the same age as the housekeeper.

and……

The more she got in touch with this master, the white wolf felt that something was not right, and what made her feel most uncomfortable was probably the way the master looked at her—it was as if she was about to eat her.

White Wolf is very sensitive to the sight of others, and she is sure that her feeling is correct, although every time she turns her head to look at her master, she finds that the master is not looking at her.

But the feeling like being licked by a poisonous snake with a snake letter can't be wrong.

It seems that the place where the system reminded her to be extra careful...maybe it was this master.

Because the white wolf has to take care of her master personally, she spends most of the time around her master to ensure that she can be by his side when he needs it.But she also has her own time to eat and rest, although those times are not many.

While resting, White Wolf finally saw the servants except himself and the butler.

There are about a dozen male servants and a dozen maids here. When everyone gathers to eat, the atmosphere is much more relaxed, and a little smile can be shown on their faces.

When the white wolf appeared in the lounge, the other maids got up one by one, greeted the white wolf and pulled the white wolf over. When the white wolf was seated, the maids who seemed to be more familiar with the white wolf started Congratulations to White Wolf.

"Although the white wolf has not been here for a long time, he has already been able to take care of the master."

"It's such an honor!"

Most of the maids were really envious of Bai Lang, but Bai Lang also saw some different emotions from the faces of the maids who didn't come over.

Except for the maid who envied the white wolf, there were also a few maids who were jealous of the white wolf, but those people kept their expressions very well. Although there was no way to smile on their faces, they didn't say anything. Only one maid directly He ran to the white wolf and interjected: "Congratulations? Who knows how this newcomer won the favor of the master? It was also Ellie who suddenly didn't know where she went, otherwise how could the work of taking care of the master be assigned to other people?" In the hands of someone? And this guy doesn't look like someone who can take care of people!"

When it came to the end, the maid's tone became extremely strong, and her dissatisfaction almost overflowed.

No one spoke for a long time after the maid said a word. It can be seen from the clothes that this maid should have a higher status among everyone.

The atmosphere in the lounge suddenly became a little stiff. A male servant on the other side came over, glanced at Bai Lang, and didn't speak to Bai Lang, but said to the angry maid: "Don't say such things. Now, if the white wolf really can't take care of her well, the housekeeper won't let her stay with the master, we just need to do our own thing well."

The servant's status among the crowd was obviously not low, and after he spoke, the others followed suit.When the angry maid was told this, she felt that it made sense, and she couldn't bear to respond to the male servant, so she softened her attitude and turned around to leave.

There were several other maids around her as she went, and they seemed to form a small circle.

After the maid left, the maids who had surrounded the white wolf came up again and whispered: "Mary has always wanted to climb up, and she has been with Ellie when Ellie was still around." Don’t deal with it. Later, Ellie suddenly disappeared and couldn’t be found. Mary has always been determined to take care of the master. A few days ago, I saw her looking proud, but no one thought that this task would fall to you. body."

After saying this, the maids around Bai Lang smiled at Bai Lang again, "Bai Lang, you have to work hard! Take good care of the master, don't really be driven away by the master!"

White Wolf thanked others very seriously for their sincere blessings, but her heart felt a little heavy.

Moreover, White Wolf observed the servants who came and went in and out of this room, and found that after hearing about Ellie's disappearance and White Wolf's coming to take care of the master, the expression on the face of a maid was not envy or jealousy, but fear. .

The spirit of the maid looked very bad, the whole person was silent and gloomy, full of a feeling similar to despair.

When White Wolf noticed that the maid was about to leave, he asked the maid beside him, "Who is that person?"

Several maids followed the white wolf's line of sight, and saw the back of the maid leaving, even the back of the maid looked wretched and curled up without any spirit.

All the maids frowned: "She... she is Senla. From the past, her list was very small and she didn't have much sense of existence, but at that time it was not as bad as it looks now. I heard that she is now Had nightmares all the time, especially after the maid who slept in the same room with her left, the nasty feeling on her body became more and more serious, and now no one wants to be with her at all .”

After this person finished speaking, another maid next to him thought for a while and added: "I heard that Senla seems to want to resign and leave here, but her contract is still a long time away, and if she breaks the contract, it will be a lot of money, and we will all pay it." I'm sorry. Then Senla wanted to ask the housekeeper for leave to go home, but how is that possible?"

"I don't know what Senla thinks, but she looks worried and gloomy every day."

There were several maids talking about Senla's voice next to his ears. The white wolf looked at the direction Senla was leaving, and said to the others after Senla walked out of the lounge: "I should also leave, goodbye."

As soon as the white wolf said that he was going to leave, the maids who surrounded the white wolf said goodbye enthusiastically, and after the white wolf left, all of them pouted together.

"The white wolf has changed."

"That's right, it's not as easy to talk as before."

"She also talked less."

"Now they don't pay much attention to us."

"Who let her be promoted to the master's side all of a sudden? If she has two brushes... maybe we will have a mistress."

"It shouldn't be possible, right?"

"Master still looks very young! Is it possible that another mistress suddenly appears?"

"That... isn't it good for us to say that about White Wolf?"

"No, no, no! How could it be bad! Aren't we all telling the truth?"

Several maids got together and continued talking, and the white wolf who followed Senla out caught up with Senla at the corner.She called out to Senla, and Senla, who was walking in front, turned her head. After seeing clearly that the person calling her was the white wolf, Senla's face became pale obviously, as if she had seen something terrible. or other.

Bailang didn't even have time to say a word, Senla in front turned around and ran away.

The white wolf looked at Senla's panicked back and stopped. She heard the bell connected to the master's room ringing, and the master is now calling her.

The white wolf lowered his head and adjusted his clothes, turned around and walked towards the master's room.

This trip to the lounge seems to be nothing, but White Wolf has gained a lot.She felt that Senla must know something, such as where Ellie went.

But seeing Senla being so scared of her, maybe she needs some time to let Senla calm down a bit?

The owner of the castle is not a difficult person to serve. Most of the time, the owner is extremely quiet.

During the whole day, the master went to his study and garden since he got up.I read some books, ate something, and flipped through some piled up documents. During the period, the private doctor of the owner of the castle came to check on the owner's body, and left after a while.

There are not many things that the white wolf needs to do from the beginning to the end. The most important thing is to always pay attention to when the master needs to appear in time, and when the master does not need her, she has to be non-existent.

All this is not difficult for White Wolf, she can feel that the owner of the castle is very satisfied with her.So after waiting for the owner to sleep peacefully at night, the white wolf can clearly see the regretful emotion in the eyes of the owner of the castle.

But what is he regretting?

Back in the room, the white wolf looked through her system—it took her some time to learn how to open and operate the game's system menu——the white wolf found that there were still six full days left for her novice task.

With such ample time, Bai Lang doesn't need to rush to do the task, she can even go offline to rest for a while.There will be no irreversible things happening in the "novice village" of this game because of the white wolf's departure, but the game will not guarantee that nothing will happen during the period of time when the white wolf is offline.

Self-consciously, Bai Lang didn't log off in a hurry, but turned around to find Senla.

Senla is in charge of the kitchen.

Although Senla seems to make people do not want to get close, but Senla's cooking skills are very good, even the owner of the castle with picky taste buds has always been very satisfied with Senla's works.

The owner of the castle has always had a very regular schedule, and it is rare for him to wake up in the middle of the night and want to eat.So after the rest of the castle owner, Senla, who has nothing else to do, should go back to her own room at this time.

However, the white wolf who came outside Senla's room did not see Senla.

The maids who lived next door to Senla met White Wolf when they came back, and after White Wolf asked: "Have you seen Senla?" After thinking about this, the maids thought about it and all shook their heads, "Senla really It's so inconspicuous, and we don't work together, so no one notices her. Maybe you can ask the few people who also work in the kitchen?"

White Wolf went to look for the servants who also worked in the kitchen like Senla, but the two servants didn't know where Senla went.

Senla seems to have disappeared all of a sudden.

White Wolf felt she needed to do something, she had a feeling that something was going on.

Although her novice village still has a long time to live, if the white wolf can get her own messenger in advance, she can leave early.

How to get the envoy, White Wolf doesn't know, but now she really wants to understand the doubts in her heart, and where Senla went.

Because the castle is so huge, it looks like a silent monster after dark.Candles were only lit in some places where people were often active, and all other places were completely dark.None of the servants who were huddled in their own rooms wanted to come out at this time. They might chat together and then fall asleep like this until the next morning.

White Wolf just came to this castle for the first day, and she doesn't know how many rooms this castle has.After searching around in some places where Senla might appear, but failed to find Senla, White Wolf went back to his room and took off the maid's little black shoes.

Although these shoes are very beautiful and of good quality, the sound of these shoes stepping on the empty castle floor is really too clear.

She changed into a pair of softer shoes, and then walked towards the castle owner's room again.

Although no one knew where Senla had gone, Bailang felt intuitively that maybe the owner of the castle knew.

After all, this is his old castle, isn't it?And these questions are already so clear.
