Chapter 262 Awakening NPC in the Death Game 8
"Hurry! Come out quickly." Everyone finally ran out of the passage and reached the bedroom.
"Let's close this passage first. If the monster doesn't come out, we won't tell the housekeeper what we have discovered for the time being." Yu Ran said.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and after pressing the mechanism, the passage was closed just one second before the monster rushed out.
"Come on, let's go back to the room and study this carefully." Yu Ran said and walked out of the room first.
"Dear guests, why are you here?"
At this time, the housekeeper appeared outside the bedroom again.
"Butler!" Yu Ran was startled by the sudden appearance of the butler, then calmed down and said, "Oh, we don't know how we got here. This room seems to be unoccupied, so we came in to take a look."
"It's my fault. I didn't make it clear. This room is not open to visitors or outsiders. So, you should go back quickly. If anything happens, I won't be held responsible."
"Okay, thank you for the reminder, housekeeper. We will go back to the room now."
Yu Ran smiled at the butler, then turned around and winked at his companions behind him, signaling them to hurry up and follow.
When the others saw Yu Ran's eyes, they quickly followed.
However, none of them noticed the butler's gradually darkening pupils and meaningful expression.
Finally found it...
Yu Ran brought everyone to his room, and the moment the door closed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"I finally feel safer..."
"It's so scary, this place is so weird and scary!"
"I don't know if the monster can come out. What if he breaks the wall?"
"That's not what we should worry about. We are just worried that the monster is in league with the housekeeper and the maid. If that happens, we will be letting the tiger go back to the mountain..."
"Okay, now that we are out of danger for the time being, let's study this book! I feel that the answers we want are in this book." Yu Ran said to everyone, holding the book in his hand.
This book is placed next to the monster.
When Yu Ran walked up to the altar, he noticed the book at first sight.
He originally wanted to get the book directly and then lead everyone to retreat, but he didn't expect the rune to go out and the monster would wake up directly.
This caught him off guard, but fortunately he reacted quickly. When he saw the monster curling its lips in a smile, he nimbly reached out to reach the book, then turned around and ran away, pulling the stunned man.
Yu Ran opened the book and began to read it carefully.
As he read deeper, his expression became more solemn. The words in the book were ancient and mysterious, recording some strange rituals and curses.
Suddenly, Yu Ran’s eyes widened as if he had discovered something important.
"I see..." he murmured in a low voice, "We need to find the corresponding items and perform a specific ceremony to break the curse and leave this damn place!"
"What do you mean?" one of them asked puzzledly.
"This place is cursed, so everyone who lives here has turned into a monster. The one we just met is the source of the curse. He was sacrificed there, causing this place to remain like this forever."
"But why is it cursed?"
"I don't know about that. It's not written here, but at least we now know how to leave here."
Everyone gathered around and asked anxiously, "So what should we do now? What do we need?"
Yu Ran handed the book in his hand to them to see.
Everyone took the book and read its contents carefully.
"We need to get the hair and blood of the cursed person." Yu Ran said, pointing to the words on the book.
"This... means we want to get the monster's hair and blood? How is that possible?" Someone looked embarrassed and timid.
"But this is our only hope." Yu Ran said with a firm look, "What we need to do now is to come up with a plan on how we can get the things without any harm when the monster is released."
After a moment's silence, someone finally spoke up: "Maybe we can find something he likes, make a trap, lure him over, and then capture him."
Yu Ran nodded: "This may be feasible, but we still have to be careful of the butler and others. Also, I think we'd better kill that monster, otherwise, there will be no chance to perform the ceremony."
"But how can we possibly kill that monster?"
"I still think that we can use the housekeeper and the maid. But first we have to confirm whether they are in the same group."
Perhaps the maid who had given him the hint at the dining table could tell him the answer.
"How about this, I'll go test them later, and you guys go to other floors to see if there are any special situations. We'll try to stay away from the bedroom with the monster."
"Okay, then you be careful." Everyone nodded in agreement, as if they had already regarded Yu Ran as their captain.
"Brother Yu, would it be dangerous for you to go alone? How about I go with you?" Li Molin said.
"No, as long as I don't break the rules, nothing will happen. You should also be careful and remember the rules in everything."
"Well, Brother Yu, be careful. We'll meet here later."
Yu Ran nodded and left the room alone.
Looking at the huge castle, Yu Ran felt a little headache. Where should he find the maid?
It would be strange to ask the housekeeper directly.
At this time, his eyes shifted to the wall on the right. The clock showed that it was five thirty-five.
Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he picked a room at random and rang the doorbell.
After a while, the butler appeared before him.
"Dear guest, how can I help you?"
"Butler, I wonder if the maids are preparing dinner now?"
"Yes, are you hungry, sir?"
"Yes, I'm a little hungry. I want to go to the kitchen to see what the maid has prepared for dinner. Is that okay?"
"Of course, distinguished guest, I will take you there right away."
The butler made a "please" gesture, then took half a step forward to lead Yu Ran.
"Butler, did anything unusual happen just now?"
"Something unusual? Oh! I don't know what happened just now, there was a slight vibration on the first floor. But fortunately, it's gone now, guests don't need to worry."
"Really?" Yu Ran pretended to be ignorant and continued to ask: "Then do you know why?"
"I don't know. The castle often vibrates like this. You just have to get used to it."
"Is that so..." Yu Ran thought thoughtfully.
Did the butler know about the monster down there? And what happened when they went down there just now?
Yu Ran looked closely at the butler who was leading the way in front of him, various thoughts constantly flashing through his mind.
