Chapter 294 Chapter 292 "Don't quibble, you are the soul clan"
Chapter 294 Chapter 290 · "Don't quibble, you are a soul race!"
Su Mingan opened his eyes.
A dead-end corridor lies ahead.
In the dim light from above, he could see the ventilation opening above.
He chose to roll back.
In this copy of the world, he must race against time.Not only must you find the perfect route to clear the level, but you must also ensure that you are the fastest, otherwise the opportunity will be taken away by others... Only one person can pass the level perfectly in ten thousand dungeons. This is the difficulty of this giant dungeon.
Therefore, he can't let go of a little chance.
Not just do it well, but do it as fast as possible…
Standing where he was, he saw the air vent above.
He switched to the bright state, and before Naluo behind him found him, he jumped onto the vent and crawled all the way in.A damp breeze blew past his face, and he smelled blood as he saw the next light.
Unsurprisingly.
He didn't rashly probe into the light, but drilled a small hole below with Mimi to look in.
...he saw a sea of blood.
Below is not a guest room, but a studio-like room.Those players were lying on the ground, and they had become four corpses.
Other than that, there was no one else around, and the door was closed, like a special corpse storage room.
What Su Mingan was very concerned about was that these players did not have the two wounds on the necks of the women who were attacked at the beginning, and their complexions did not have the paleness that had been sucked out of their souls. They just died like ordinary people being attacked. There was a blunt weapon damage at the fatal point, and he died cleanly.
... They didn't seem to be attacked by the soul clan and died.
On the contrary...it seemed as if he was beaten to death by someone.
But last week, when people found these four corpses, they clearly looked like they died at the hands of the soul clan...
Su Mingan thought for a moment.
"……I see."
He already roughly understood the whole process of the matter.
Seeing that there was no one below, he summoned Ming's avatar and asked him to jump down to observe.
"Click."
While Ming was observing, the door was suddenly pushed open.
A person dressed as a crew member met Ming's gaze, and the moment he saw Ming, the crew member's eyes immediately turned fierce.
The crew didn't say anything, didn't even ask questions, just drew out their weapons and waved them towards Ming.
... Ming Ke still looks like Su Ming'an, so far, there should be no player who doesn't know him.
The crew dared to attack him when they saw his appearance, probably an NPC.
Perhaps this crew member regarded Ming as the cannon fodder player team from the previous wave, and they rushed over confidently.
"Boom".
The stick in the crew's hand was directly sent flying by Ming Yijian.
The next moment, the blade pierced through the neck of the crew member, and he didn't even have a chance to call for help.
[You killed Orr (the senior crew member of the Yate), Exp+800! 】
……
A fountain of blood spewed out like a fountain, dyeing the room red.
Su Ming'an didn't know how strong this crew member was, but based on experience, he shouldn't be a cannon fodder.No wonder the player team would be wiped out here within 10 minutes.
Now it is difficult for him to judge the strength of the npc, he can only judge what level they are by looking at the experience points dropped by the npc.
"Ding dong!"
[You have been promoted to (rank three and five) players. 】
……
The system reminded him that he had been promoted to a higher level.
Since advancing to the third level, the upgrade has become slower and slower.Killing some low-level npcs has also begun to greatly reduce experience. If you kill npcs that deviate from the route, you will not even gain experience.
The prompt now seems to be telling him that killing these crew members... is the correct route?
Su Mingan thought for a moment, then walked out along the way the crew opened the door just now.
Walking out of this room full of blood, he saw a wooden ladder extending downwards, and some scorching breath came from below, like the power room of a giant ship.
Ming jumped down directly, and ran into a group of crew members who seemed to be discussing in the engine room.
There are at least a dozen crew members gathered here, they seem to be plotting, and the candles on the table are still burning.
When the crew saw Ming, they were nervous at first, and then quickly picked up their weapons and rushed forward.
"someone is coming!"
"Whoever it is, kill him! This matter must not be leaked—"
The leader shouted, the stick in his hand was not slow at all.
What greeted him was a sword wind like the arc of a bright moon.
"Puff puff!"
The blade of the sword gleamed dimly under the candlelight, and corpses fell to the ground one after another.
The blood spread all over the ground and seeped down along the plank of the ship.
[You killed Naike (the senior crew member of the Yate), Exp+800! 】
[You killed Henry (a special crew member of the Yate), Exp+1000! 】
【…】
Su Mingan followed closely behind, reaching out to the crew members who hurriedly rushed towards the door——
"boom--!"
The air glass shattered and split, accompanied by the torn apart bodies of the crew.
After a shock, the entire power room was silent.A strong smell of blood permeated it, and the floor was stained red with blood.
Su Mingan glanced at the dead crew members, and found a wooden box next to them.
Inside the wooden box were some green potions and a small scalpel. The shape of the blade was strange, like a thick diamond-shaped long needle.
"..." Looking at this long needle with a special shape, Su Mingan understood.
"I see."
He already understood the whole process of the so-called "Attack Soul Clan Attack".
He was about to speak out his deduction and complete the main task when he suddenly heard swift footsteps from behind.
...that's where he came from.
He thought of that Miss Naluo, and now it seems that Naluo entered here and lost to these crew members before being killed.
He let Ming hide in the closet next to him, and after a while, Naluo's red hair came over first.
Her expression was still very vigilant, holding a black cloth bag in her hand, but when she saw a room of corpses and Su Mingan who was looking at her, the vigilance in her eyes turned into astonishment.
"Hey? Rin?" She was stunned: "Why are you here... You, killed them?"
"Miss Naluo, you are really bold." Su Mingan said.
What he said was the truth, if he hadn't come early tonight, Naraku would definitely die in the hands of these people.
"What do you mean?" Naraku jumped down, her long, flame-like hair fluttering in the wind behind her.
During the fall, the cloth bag in her hand fell off, revealing a blood-red spear.
She landed on the ground, with a brisk figure, flipped her wrist, and pointed a gun at him, her voice became a bit cold:
"Rin, I didn't expect to bump into you here."
She said, pointing at him with a cold gunpoint:
"You came out in the middle of the night, killed the crew, and acted in a sneaky manner... If Miss Ben guessed correctly, you are the culprit who caused the chaos on the Yate—the Soul Race!"
Su Mingan: "..."
Su Mingan: "Is this the conclusion you came to?"
"——Why, I have nothing to say, don't quibble!" Nai Luo shouted loudly, as if very complacent: "If Miss Ben hadn't had a flash of inspiration tonight and wanted to go out and catch the hateful murderer, she wouldn't have Discover your atrocities! Su Lin, although I know that you like me very much, you like me so much, you even played hard to get, and waited on the only way for me many times..."
When she said this, she seemed to sigh in embarrassment: "But... the difference in race means that we cannot love each other. Su Lin, wake up, people and souls have different paths, and I will kill you here tonight. This is the fate of love between us - if there is a next life, I would rather give you a chance to marry me..."
Su Mingan: "..."
Su Mingan: "Naraku."
"—Don't try to say anything to make me soft-hearted, I will never let you go no matter what! Miss Ben has been practicing long spears in the training ground for ten years, and even the teacher praised me for my talent. It is absolutely easy to take you down -"
"Stop reading romance stories." Su Ming'an interrupted her: "...More brains."
Naraku raised her brows upside down: "You, you, a soul race, what did you say—"
"I'm not a soul clan." Su Mingan said.
"Don't quibble, if it wasn't for the soul race, how could you, a guy who can't even wield a gun, sneak around in the middle of the night and kill so many crew members by yourself!" Seeing the corpses of four civilians, you must have done it too! Rin, I didn't expect you to be discovered by this lady after hiding on the Yate for so long..."
"...Have you observed the death of the four civilians?"
"What else is there, isn't it just a blow wound that kills with one blow..." Naraku was stunned when he said this: "Hey?"
Su Mingan moved away and asked her to carefully look at the corpses of the crew members lying on the ground: "Have you ever seen souls who killed people in the middle of the night but didn't suck their souls?"
"That, that!" Naluo forcefully said, "It must be because you are afraid of being discovered and want to move your position..."
Su Mingan ignored her.
He squatted down and dragged a dead body of a crew member in front of him, then took out the syringe containing the green liquid found in the wooden box, and injected the liquid into the dead body of the crew member.
Then, he saw that the corpses of the crew members shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye, dying like old tree bark.
...Gradually it turned into a pale-faced death, as if its soul had been sucked out.
Under Naluo's surprised gaze, he took out a diamond-shaped scalpel and made two cuts in the neck of the corpse.
After doing all this, he got up and looked at Naraku.
"Any other conclusions have been drawn now?" he asked.
"..." Naraku was silent.
She squatted down and observed the corpse carefully, and finally came to an extremely absurd idea.
"This corpse..." she said softly, "It's really exactly the same as the death of the person who was attacked and killed by the soul clan."
"After any corpse is processed by these two tools, it will look like it was attacked by the soul race." Su Mingan turned the scalpel in his hand: "If I hadn't come here tonight, the four corpses upstairs, including the rash You who rushed over may become a 'case' who was attacked and died by the soul race."
"..." Naluo's eyes were full of disbelief.
"What do you mean?" She couldn't turn her mind for a while.
Su Mingan looked at the wooden box next to him.
There are dozens of such tools neatly placed in the wooden box. Judging by the number, these crew members will kill at least dozens of passengers.
"These crew members... took the initiative to kill the victims who were investigating at night, and disguised them as if they were attacked and died by the soul race. Then, rumors spread that a terrifying soul race appeared on the Yate. "Su Ming'an said slowly: "But in fact, the Yate, which is entrusted with the high hopes of the empire, is regarded as the pearl of the sea... There is no so-called soul race on it at all.
This is just a man-made panic, a kind of panic created for the sake of panic. "
"Ding dong!"
When he said this conclusion, the system prompt also sounded at the same time.
[The inference of "the panic on the Yate is a man-made panic" is correct! 】
[Deduction progress: 50%]
……
"Why did the crew do this?" Naraku couldn't figure it out at all.
It was hard for her to imagine that such an outrageous thing would happen on the Yate, which was regarded as the hope of the empire.
...The crew took the lead in killing the passengers, and then caused the panic of "there are souls on the Yate"?
"You don't doubt me anymore?" Su Mingan said.
Naruto glanced at him.
"Hmph... Although this lady is eager to find the attacker, she is still willing to reluctantly believe you." She snorted softly: "With your family strength, how could it be possible to get such a strange potion? I'm still more willing to believe There's a bigger conspiracy going on inside."
Su Mingan smiled.
Fortunately, Miss Naluo no longer doubted him.
Otherwise, if she keeps not trusting him and drags him to meet some soul hunter, he will kill her.
He has little sympathy for unreasonable npcs.
"After staying with Miss Ben for a few days, you have become a lot smarter." Naraku said: "Although I don't know when you practiced your skills, it is not difficult to subdue these crew members. Miss Ben reluctantly believes in you." Bar."
...not difficult?
Su Ming'an didn't speak.
Did he remember that in the last episode, this Miss Naluo died at the hands of this group of crew members who she thought were "not difficult to deal with".
"So, why did the crew do this?" Naraku asked.
"After creating panic, what benefits will the crew get?" Su Mingan said, "If you think about it from this direction..."
Naluo pondered for a moment: "Once there are soul races on the Yate, the first to be dispatched will be the soul race hunters."
"But those who killed these innocent people were not the so-called soul races at all, and there were no soul races on the Yate." Su Mingan said: "Then, after people learned, 'soul race hunters can't catch soul races at all' After this news, they will be even more panicked and desperate—the number of victims is increasing all the time, and the voyage has been deliberately slowed down for two full days... Even, these crew members will actively set traps in order to expand the panic, Attack the soul hunters, and let the last defensive barrier of the nobles be cut off."
When he said this, he looked at Naraku:
"Under such circumstances...the number of survivors is decreasing day by day, and the soul hunters are dying...then what will those great nobles who are willing to spare their lives do?"
"...On the Yate, there are dozens of lifeboats, which are enough to save the entire upper-middle-class passengers and escape. This is to prevent the sinking of the ship." Naraku's voice was a little slow: "After this kind of thing happened, The nobles will definitely choose to put down the lifeboat, take the hunter and leave, and abandon the Yate, which has become a burden..."
"Then, without the upper ruler, the Yate will become the property of these crew members." Su Mingan shook his hand, throwing away the syringe in his hand:
"...This is the whole process of their conspiracy."
