Witcher's Atelier

Except for the rats, the few demons in the entire Rat Tower could not stop Kayla Metz, not to mention that Victor Corleone was standing next to her.

After finishing the exploration of the basement, the two of them headed for the top floor. They swept away several demons along the way and watched several 3D movies, which gave them a better understanding of the background of the curse that occurred half a year ago.

For example, in the living room with a fireplace on the second floor, there is a short conversation between Baron Veserad and his daughter Annabelle by the fire, which contains a wealth of information.

...

The slightly bloated black shadow waved his hands impatiently, "Annabelle, stop talking! Go back and do your work! Stop talking about those stupid peasants, I don't want to hear about them!

You are overwhelmed by love and that idiot! But one Graham doesn't mean that all of them are up to par."

Just opposite the former, the slender and plump ghost raised his hand to try to defend himself, "Father, but I don't mean that──"

──The sudden accident interrupted the conversation. A black shadow in a wizard's robe stumbled in from outside, with a panicked tone, "Lord! The peasants rushed in! They broke into the tower door!"

The slender and plump ghost fled upstairs in panic...

The film ends here, vividly explaining the relationship between the characters and the personality profile of the noble father and daughter for the two audiences.

…

Then on each floor, the witcher and the sorceress would find the fleeing figure of the slender black shadow and her obscure crying and wailing in different places.

The third floor was a row of wooden beds and a dusty servant's room, and the fourth floor was an exquisite guest room and a spacious master bedroom.

The fifth floor seemed to be a storage for collections and a vault, with hooks for displaying artworks on the wall and a sturdy safe in the corner.

Unexpectedly, the vault was destroyed and in a mess, with gold and paintings thrown everywhere, but they were still left in the original room and were not taken away.

And here, there was also a single-person short movie of unknown meaning.

…

In the green light of the soul-calling lantern, the slender and powerful ghost danced with joy, "Eh ha! It's gold, piles of gold. Great! The dead don't need it anyway, so why not let me use it to improve my life.

…It's just a little strange that the gold was not taken away, even though the noble had been dead for a while."

Suddenly he tilted his ear to listen, as if there was a strange sound nearby, he raised his voice and asked, "Who is it! Who is there? Come out! Is anyone there?"

The next moment the shadows retreated and fell to the ground, "You... who are you? Ah ah ah ah! Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh!"

The video ended like this. Keira left the room carelessly, but Victor touched his chin, feeling interested.

"Don't waste time standing there in a daze. This can't be the top floor. The wizard's laboratory should be at the highest point. Use your extraordinary five senses to find the way." The sorceress shouted outside the door.

The witcher turned and walked out of the room, "You know what? I found something interesting. When the thief was killed, there was no actor in front of him who was acting opposite him..."

"Is this important?"

"I think it's very interesting."

After speaking, under the glare of Keira, Victor honestly found the candle holder on the wall that was often moved, and tilted it from upright to horizontal, and opened the door to reveal the stairs leading upstairs.

...

Following the secret passage, they walked into the real top floor, the laboratory of the wizard Alexander.

This alchemy room with complete instruments looks familiar, and it is quite similar to his own work habits... There is a layout of tools on one side of the bookshelf and two sides, including extraction bottles, grinding mortars, mixing beakers, fermentation barrels, distiller, filter pots, and of course, the boiling cauldron in the middle of the room, which is indispensable for alchemy and all witches.

However, the studio of the wizard Alexander also has some things that "Victor's Alchemy Workshop" will never have, that is, the shocking large culture tank, which is loaded with human-shaped dry bones and soaked specimens.

Obviously, this spellcaster has crossed the bottom line of being a human being and took the initiative to let the experimental subjects be infected with the Cateriona plague in order to collect relevant research data.

"If the Mage Council still exists, his actions will definitely be severely punished." Keira said calmly.

Victor raised his eyebrows, "Then do you still want the data?"

"In the name of knowledge advancement, I don't support this kind of thing, but I don't want the data to be destroyed. Although his approach is not appropriate, Alexander has gone further than anyone else in solving the plague."

The sorceress's answer was expected, and the witcher himself thought so. Turning away from the culture tank and searching other areas, they immediately noticed the obvious spiritual reaction in the center of the laboratory.

Sure enough, under the green light of the lantern, a ghost appeared vaguely, and it was the slender black shadow that escaped from the second floor to the top floor.

"Why are you leaving? You clearly said you love me." Her voice was sad, pure, crisp and gentle, "I'm so cold. Why didn't anyone come to save me? I can't leave this place, I can't find the exit."

After finishing her sad performance of self-pity, she suddenly looked in Victor's direction, "Who are you? Are you going to hurt me too?"

Kayla, who was watching from the sidelines, was slightly startled. She originally thought that the ghosts in the fortress had lost their minds, and the soul-calling here could only observe the other party's unilateral curtain call performance. Unexpectedly, she could actually encounter a conscious soul.

Without hesitation, she stepped forward and responded first, "Don't be afraid, he and I, we are here to lift the curse on this island. Now it's your turn to tell us your identity. The other ghosts in the tower can't see us..." "

The original three-dimensional imaging has now become an interactive movie. The witcher did not stop the sorceress from questioning the ghost, but only placed his right hand on the hilt of the sword to warn.

"I am Annabelle. I am special. I have always been. I am a peerless beauty, the lord's daughter... All the land that I have ever seen belongs to our family." The ghost spread his hands and spoke gracefully.

"My family and I were all hiding in the mage's tower, waiting for the war to end, waiting for the hard days to end. I didn't expect that I would never be able to get out of this hiding place."

While listening to the conversation between the two beauties, Victor's eyes wandered as he observed the elk specimens on the table and the dusty ground. I felt deeply that the description of the ghost was clear and layered, and the memory was so good that it was unbelievable. This kind of case is very rare.

"Where is the mage who originally worked here?" Keira first asked the topic of concern.

Annabeth shrugged, "You mean Alexander? I'm not familiar with him, because he spent most of his time working in the tower. He's dead too!

They are all dead! Towering piles of corpses! I'm the only one left here! A lonely person! They all abandoned me, even those who swore to love me forever, so you will definitely abandon me too! "As she spoke, her emotions gradually grew, and her voice suddenly became high-pitched and passionate.

However, the sorceress was unmoved and her tone remained calm, "If you can lift the curse, you will be free to leave. Helping us is helping yourself, so tell me what happened at that time. I heard that farmers took boats to the island to beg. Food, is that it?”

"No, they came to rob and kill! They thought we were rich and that we were comfortably hiding on the island and laughing at their miserable lives.

In fact, we didn’t have much food, not enough to distribute to the people who came to the island. When I tried to persuade my father to show some mercy, they rushed in...

They killed everyone... I heard my father's screams, but the Master told me to hide and not let anyone come in here. "

Annabeth's emotional description makes people feel as if they were there, "He gave me a potion and said if I was found, just drink it... He said everything would be fine."

"He didn't tell you what kind of potion it was? Do you remember what it tasted like or what color it was?" Victor interjected and asked about professionalism.

The ghost responded in a low voice, "I just remember that I didn't dare to drink... People in the village said that he specialized in studying diseases. Not how to cure diseases, but how to cause them. They said that he lured rats into the tower and infected them. Plague on Catriona.

I know this is just a rumor, but I am so scared, so scared..." At this point, Annabeth suddenly choked up, "Then I heard his voice, my beloved Graham. I heard him calling me... I opened the door for him, but someone else rushed in. They jumped at me...and..."

"Didn't your lover save you? Why?" Keira's attitude fluctuated, and her voice was obviously filled with anger. As a woman, she naturally hated these evil deeds.

Annabeth moaned and sobbed, "There were too many of them. He yelled, 'Don't touch her!' and tried to grab them to stop them, but they just laughed..."

"So those bastards hurt you?"

"They grabbed my arms and tore my skirt, and I managed to break free of them and drink the potion and then...nothing."

"Drinking poison? That's how you died?" Keira's eyes were sharp.

"No, it's not, because I woke up later. I was alone, and everything was pitch black. There were only hundreds of rats everywhere. But I... couldn't move."

Picking up the medicine bottle that fell on the ground and sniffing it, Victor touched his nose and said, "It's a fake death medicine. The effect of the medicine hadn't completely worn off at the time, causing you to be unable to move..."

"Haha! There are mice everywhere, crawling all over my body, like insects, crawling on my face and hands... I can feel them tearing open my skin, crawling into my stomach, and biting my eyeballs …

They ate me alive one bite at a time, and I couldn't even scream!

Oh God! Haven't I suffered enough? Why can't I leave here? ! "With tears streaming down her face, Annabeth complained loudly about everything.

Under the green light of the magic lantern, the sorrowful questions coming from the soul made the sorceress bite her lip and look at the witcher.

After all, the story ends here, fully fulfilling the ruthless revelations of the prophet, and the subsequent handling of the matter naturally needs to respect the opinions of the young people.

However, the ghost's personal statement made her feel deeply angry, so she also used her eyes to strongly express her personal opinions.
