As the night wore on, the rain became heavier and heavier.

The fierce lightning accompanied the roar of the wind resounded in the sky, and the raindrops the size of beans crackled on the glass like a violent drumbeat, making people tremble.

I should really say that I am glad that this is a sturdy mansion and not an ordinary wooden fake house, otherwise I might have blown away the storm even if I walked the house.

In other words, this kind of weather is simply unscientific, and the location of Wales is not the southeast coast of the Celestial Empire, and it actually feels like a tropical storm descending into a storm.

As time progressed, people who had been casual in the recreation room began to return to their rooms.

The first to leave was Anasta, probably so annoyed by these people that she couldn't concentrate on reading, so she was ready to leave early. However, before leaving, she still brought two brick-like books, probably planning to go back to the room to continue reading.

Later, the university lecturer Burlick went back to rest, and he said that he was tired from rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the afternoon to find treasures.

Eventually, the old count, the lawyer, and the two players left the recreation room almost on their feet, and the servants, Charles and Mary, checked the doors, windows, and lights, and went back to rest.

The huge mansion was plunged into darkness, and the pale colors illuminated by the lightning outside piercing the sky were really terrifying.

An Yizhi and Tu Hongyu had planned to wait for everyone to sleep and then explore the mansion at night, but the system sent a prompt saying that lack of sleep would lead to mental trance or death.

As the so-called game has the largest system in the world, there is no way, and the two have to return to the guest room.

They first piled some miscellaneous items in the room, such as wine bottles in the small wine cabinet, on the windowsill, carefully checked all the locks, and finally used heavy objects such as sofas and coffee tables to press against the door.

An Yizhi didn't believe what the waiter Charlie said, after all, it was hard to believe that the servant didn't have a key in his hand.

In addition, whenever there are copies of overnight programs, the system will arrange some 'repertoire programs'. These two people are old fritters, of course, they won't give the system a chance to kill a wave of plots.

After confirming that it was safe, the two loaded their pistols, held the gun in one hand, closed their eyes in such a position that they could get up and shoot at any time, and clicked the sleep button.

As expected, the system really arranged the plot at night.

The darkness in front of me lasted for almost a minute, and if nothing happened during the night, the night in the dungeon should have passed as soon as the eyes were closed and opened.

Ann heard the sound of something heavy falling on the marble hallway, the sound was regular and rhythmic, it felt like someone was passing through the hallway, but this person must be very heavy.

The sound grew closer and clearer, and it was not until the next moment that he heard a 'clang', like the noise of metal utensils falling on the floor, and he regained control of his body.

An Yizhi opened his eyes, and so did Tu Hongyu, who was on the next bed, and he pointed out the door, obviously hearing a strange sound in the corridor as well.

"What to do? Want to open the door and see? ”

Tu Hongyu leaned over with a gun and whispered.

"I guess that's probably an option."

An Yizhi drew his pistol and explained:

"This plot shouldn't be forced to happen, the system's move is to let us choose what to do, whether to open the door and see how to continue the plot, or ignore it and wait for the dawn to come."

This choice is common, with the most recent example being the 'Outlaw Chisar Island' that the two of them ran into the last time they were arranging a quest with Breeze Bazooka. (See Chapter 342~363 for details)

However, if you choose to go out with you, it is usually accompanied by different dangers, although it is likely to help and promote the player's subsequent clearance.

"Whether it's dangerous or not, at least let's see what is going on."

After discussing a few words, Tu Hongyu made a decision.

Then the two slowly moved the coffee table and sofa used to block the door, and Tu Hongyu grabbed the doorknob and looked at An Yizhi. The latter stood at the crack in the door and nodded at him, signaling that it was ready.

Tu Hongyu's size and size were too big and he was really not flexible enough, so they decided to let Tu Hongyu be responsible for blocking and opening the door, and An Yizhi was responsible for checking it.

The locks and axes were apparently well maintained, and perhaps Mr. Edward, who made them, was indeed very skilled, and the action of opening the door did not make any noise with the help of hydraulic assistance.

An pointed and peeked through the crack in the door, but there was nothing in his vision but the hallway.

The source of the sound is most likely on the right, and only the left side can be seen through the crack in the door.

This is not good news, because if you want to see the right side, you have to lean out.

An Yizhi shook the hand holding the pistol, motioned to Tu Hongyu to open the door a little wider, and then quickly leaned out half of his body.

Now he saw what was making noise in the hallway.

It looked like it was supposed to be a suit of armor, very typical of European knight's plate armor, and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was the sound of it walking down a marble hallway.

But here's the problem......

Ann pointed and didn't see that it had a head!

To be exact, there was only a patch of air from the neck upwards, and his helmet fell to the ground, right at its feet. With the white light sprinkled by the lightning by the window, it is quite a bit of a thriller ghost movie.

Are there really ghosts? Or the Headless Horseman?

This thing An Yizhi is not afraid, he is most afraid of the kind of thing that suddenly pops out and scares you, after all, he often goes to the endless dungeon to brush the undead, and no matter how disgusting the monster is, he has seen it.

Of course, if it is really a headless horseman, even if An Yizhi can use all his strength, he will still be beaten as 'An Yitan'.

The Headless Horseman is an undead boss comparable to the Lich.

However, this guy was lying on the ground at this time, touching around as if he was a super high myopic eye who accidentally lost his eye, probably touching his helmet.

- The horror atmosphere is gone......

This thing looks a lot like the Headless Horsemann, but it can't be.

This is a temporary dungeon, and the player's combat power is greatly limited, and the system should not be so disciplined that it will not be able to spawn a monster that even in its heyday...... Right?

Rather than the Headless Horseman, Ann Yizhi prefers that it is something that looks like the Headless Horseman. The best evidence of this is that Ann stared at it for several seconds, and the other party didn't notice it.

The true Headless Horseman is super powerful and extremely sensitive to sight, and besides, the Headless Horseman is an undead creature, and he hates and hates the living very much, and it is impossible for him to detect the breath of a living person, even if it is facing him right now.

- Click!

At this moment, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and with the help of the flash, Ann pointed to see that there were many brass-colored gears and mechanisms under its neck, and something like a gyroscope was swirling in it.

Alchemical creations? Or is it Mr. Edward's masterpiece?

If it's the latter, it's too dick.

This is the real 'robot', a purely mechanical creation, where can be explained by a sentence of black technology, it is simply alien technology!

Edward wouldn't really have anything to do with something unspeakable, right? In terms of setting, those evil gods are all aliens......

With these thoughts spinning in his mind, Ann pointed to see it touch the helmet and stay on his head, only to hear two soft clicks like a machine bite to death, and the armor slowly turned around.

An Yizhi hurriedly retracted into the room, and then Tu Hongyu quickly closed the door as quickly as possible without making a sound.

"What do you see?"

"A knight's plate full of gears and machines that can move on its own."

The two of them reasoned about the door, and An pointed and whispered:

"Did you look inside the armor when you went to the weapons showroom before?"

"Of course I looked, there's so much space in the armor that it's just right to hide things."

In terms of looting, although Tu Hongyu is not as good as An Yizhi, he is not the kind of guy who is invincible and invincible and depends on 'fate' to get anything, he also searched very carefully, and he can be sure that those armors are empty.

"So...... The movable armor outside is not from the weapons showroom. ”

"Do you think it's possible to come from ......?"

"Secret Passage!"

There is indeed a possibility, they have confirmed that there is evidence of the existence of a secret passage in this house, but they have not been able to find the entrance to the secret passage.

Since the armor used to decorate this house was empty, and the machinery that was so densely packed in couldn't have been temporarily stuffed in, it means that the movable armor came from a place they had never explored, which means that it probably came out of a secret passage.

In other words, by following this movable armor, they will be able to find the entrance and exit of the secret passage.

It's just that there may be some dangers.

Even if this dungeon still doesn't show the slightest danger, it is possible that the system is doing this to make players take it lightly, and there is a possibility of encountering a wave of story kills if they keep up.

It's much safer to stay in the room. Indeed, as Charlie suggests, the doors were covered with wood on the outside and solid metal on the inside, and they were strong and heavy, otherwise they would not have required additional hydraulic assistance, or at least the fact that it was difficult to open them from the outside.

There wasn't much time left for the two players to decide, and heavy footsteps sounded outside the door again, and they drifted away.

"Fight, go out and see, it's not once or twice to die anyway."

Ann gritted her teeth with one finger and made up her mind.

“…… When you say that, I'm very insecure. ”

Tu Hongyu doesn't have the talent of 'doing without dying', and sometimes he rises up to die, so he is really dead......

Of course, he also understands that this is likely to be a clue and hint provided by the system to the player, and it may become easier to follow up with this clue, so it is not pure death.

The two of them reopened the door, and by this time the movable armor was almost at the end of the hallway.

The two of them didn't make any noise, and followed from a distance of about 20 meters, and although there was no cover in the corridor for them to hide, at least the armor wouldn't look back, so they weren't spotted.

Ann pointed to the clock in the hallway, and the time was now 3:15 a.m.

The appearance of the movable armor may have something to do with time, after all, they hadn't seen it come out during the day.

The armor was still completely unaware of the following, and reached out to push open the door in the hallway and entered.

The two hurried to follow, but they didn't immediately push the door open, because they were too close and they feared being discovered.

It wasn't until they heard the sound behind the door getting quieter that they opened the door and came to the main entrance to the mansion, which was the hallway hall.

However......

There was nothing in front of it, and the moving armor seemed to melt into the air and completely vanished, leaving no trace.

Did it go upstairs or in the direction of the restaurant?

The two searched for a while, but to no avail, and did not hear the heavy footsteps, as if the movable armor had never appeared at all.

Could it be that the entrance to the secret passage is in this hallway?

The moving armor disappeared here, and it wasn't wrong to think so, but they had searched carefully during the day, and there were no secret doors here.

The two players are puzzled.

The painting that hangs on the stairs 'automatically changes the pattern' shows a view of the setting sun, watching two players scratching their heads as if they were watching.
