Conquer the beast in the doomsday game

Chapter 81 The true appearance of the hostess

Lu Jinglun was sweating all over, and the fear in his eyes had not completely dissipated.

It's so scary. The look of that hostess is really scary.

Unexpectedly, he accidentally saw the mistress's exposed skin, which was as uneven as black wrinkled tree bark, similar to the monster he saw at night.

Thinking of this, his pupils couldn't help but open wide.

"Lv Jinglun, what's wrong with you? Your face doesn't look very good. Could it be that you were frightened?"

Jiang Minghai waved his hand in front of him for a long time without noticing it.

Chang Jie couldn't help but frown when he saw this. He wasn't really frightened, right? He remembered that Lu Jinglun wasn't so courageous?

Lu Jinglun's horrified expression was seen by Shen Qiutang. He had become different from when he was attacked by the hostess.

Shen Qiutang didn't think that he was frightened. Lu Jinglun must have discovered something else to react so strongly.

The problem must lie with the mistress. Maybe he discovered some important secret about the mistress.

"Did you find something?"

Shen Qiutang's words seemed to bring him back to his senses. Lu Jinglun calmed down slightly, but the fear in his eyes had not completely dissipated. He swallowed and whispered to them: "Let's go first, and we'll talk in my room later." !”

"So you suspect that this mistress is actually the monster you saw last night?" Chang Jie paced back and forth on the ground, analyzing what Lu Jinglun said.

Shen Qiutang and Su Mianmian kept standing by the window and looking out, not knowing what they were looking at.

Lu Jinglun nodded with some fear and said: "Yes, when she attacked me just now, she accidentally exposed a piece of skin. It was exactly the same as the two monsters I saw in the middle of the night yesterday. The skin was like black tree bark."

"And the look she looked at me when she attacked me just now is not the look a normal person should have at all. It is clearly the look of a prey looking at food. And don't you think it's weird? This hostess listens to the housekeeper. If so, wouldn’t the relationship of priority be reversed?”

Mao Ziyi obviously listened to what he said, "When you said that, I suddenly remembered a lot of details. The relationship between the two of them didn't feel like a master-servant relationship at all. The mistress listened to the housekeeper more."

"Is it possible that this mistress is actually a puppet controlled by the housekeeper? This housekeeper is the real owner of the castle. In order to lower our alertness, they deliberately exchanged identities. Yes, it must be like this. It's really good Cunning NPC!"

After hearing Mao Ziyi's words, others felt their thoughts suddenly brighten, and they all felt that what he said made sense.

Jiang Minghai got angry when he saw the two women watching the scenery by the window, "You two are just looking at what's good to see outside the window. We are discussing something. Why don't you come and listen?"

The window in Lu Jinglun's room faced away from the main entrance of the apartment, which was in the opposite direction to the window in Jiang Minghai's room.

There is also a retro-style oil portrait of a little girl hanging in his room, but Shen Qiutang always feels that the eyes of the little girl's portrait in Lu Jinglun's room are not as vivid as those in her room.

"You also have this painting in your room, but why do I think it's not as beautiful as the one in Yunyun and I's room?"

"It's just a painting, what's so good about it?" Lu Jinglun expressed disapproval.

"I also have this painting in my room, but it's just an ordinary oil painting."

Shen Qiutang came to the window.

Looking out of his window, there was a white fog that made it impossible to see anyone else. It was exactly the same scene they saw when they came.

"It's strange. When you look out of Lu Jinglun's room, it's completely white. It's not as exaggerated as Jiang Minghai said. Is his room the only one that looks like this?"

Su Mianmian tentatively stretched out her hand, but she didn't expect to see a hunched figure in the mist.

It's strange, who would hide in the fog and still be fine?

"You two are just looking out the window. What's there to see? We are discussing something. Why don't you come and listen?"

Su Mianmian rolled her eyes and retorted: "Why are you so anxious? We just want to see if the scenery outside his window is any different from yours?"

Jiang Minghai was speechless, "Then did you find any difference?"

"Don't worry, aren't I watching?"

In order to take a closer look, Su Mianmian couldn't help but poke her head out, but she didn't expect that the strange creature suddenly emerged from the mist, revealing a bloody mouth full of fangs.

The surface of his body looked like dark tree bark, with several sea urchin-like branches hanging from it.

"Oh my God, what the hell is this? It looks scary?"

Her shout seemed to disturb the monster in the fog. The monster penetrated the fog and stretched out its long branches to attack Su Mianmian. A pair of gloomy eyes greedily looked at the sudden appearance of prey.

This is?

Su Mianmian's pupils couldn't help but dilate. This was clearly the monster that ate the bespectacled man and knocked on their door that night!

It turns out that this monster has been hiding in the mist!

In desperation, Su Mianmian tried to use secret techniques to control the monster's thoughts, but the monster had no mind and her secret techniques didn't work at all.

Just when Su Mianmian thought she was going to die, a beautiful golden rose vine wrapped around her waist and pulled her back violently. Su Mianmian's butt fell heavily to the ground.

The monster wanted to take the opportunity to chase it, but unexpectedly, the moment it was about to step into the window, there was an inexplicable hesitation in its gloomy eyes.

The monster actually gave up on Su Mianmian, turned around, and disappeared back into the mist.

Su Mianmian was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground. She was just a little bit away from being killed by the monster.

When Lu Jinglun saw this familiar monster, he was so frightened that he fell down on the bed.

"It is it. I remember the monster I found that night clearly. It looks exactly like it!"

"You mean this thing looks a lot like the monster that killed the man with glasses that night?" Mao Ziyi looked at Lu Jinglun, who was a little incoherent.

Lu Jinglun nodded quickly and said: "That's right, the monster I saw looks exactly like it!"

"Did we blame the housekeeper wrongly? In fact, the monster is hidden in the mist?"

Chang Jie frowned subconsciously when he heard this. He always felt that what Mao Ziyi said was not entirely correct, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Have you ever thought that maybe there is more than one monster?" Shen Qiutang crossed his arms and looked out the window and thought deeply.

Mao Ziyi felt that he was about to be confused by Shen Qiutang, "Zhao Yun, what do you mean by this? Do you think this monster may not be the same as the one Lu Jinglun saw that night?"

"That's right, it's very possible that what you saw was not the same monster. Do you still remember what the man with glasses saw in the fog on his first day in the dungeon?"

Chang Jie was very impressed by this incident, because he was the one who received Shen Qiutang and others outside.
