Chapter 507
A timid and thin young man sat opposite him, listening obediently to his instructions.
There were busy sounds coming from the kitchen, and the aroma of milk wafted in.
The eldest daughter still did not appear, and the kind old man was gone.
"Breakfast will take some time, wait a little longer."
The middle-aged man said, and continued to explain the knowledge in the book to the young man.
Irene said to Lin: "Let's go upstairs and talk."
Chapter 19 The dungeon boss said he wanted to elope with me
The undead in the dead city have their own way of life.
Entering the dead city, there will be no concept of time and space.
You may encounter undead who died not long ago, or you may encounter ancient souls that have existed since the dead world.
You may encounter a wandering lonely soul, a simple family, a prosperous village, or even a huge city-state.
Scholars believe that the dead city is the dead world, or it can be said that the underworld is a projection of the present reality.
The underworld and reality are not in the same dimension, and the dead city is a rare intersection point.
What you see is just a random small fragment in the chaotic dead world.
Humans are more familiar with the undead and demons trapped on the continent, but they know nothing about the underworld.
They only know that the undead, who are usually sleeping, will be summoned by the dead city and wake up.
They are born with the death of the creatures in this world, and will never decrease. They are like a thorn in the bone, difficult to remove, and become a big problem like a flood and a beast at a critical moment.
Rin also just knew that there is a "master" in the dead city.
He can bet with the gods and change the rules inside the dead city.
And now this game-like setting is actually quite inconsistent.
For example.
The family didn't seem to realize that one person was missing, and they still maintained their previous warm life mode.
But when Iris asked the old woman.
They didn't have any extra reactions at all, but continued their daily behaviors and exchanges.
Even their expressions were fixed, just like... puppets.
Before going upstairs, Rin glanced around and finally focused on Irene.
He remembered the information that Fei Miao got using the observation eye in the previous plot.
Irene has a skill called puppet master.
While he was thinking, he was taken to the second floor and came to Irene's room.
After closing the door gently, Irene looked miserable, her eyes were red, and her eyes were full of despair.
That weakness and helplessness, the broken despair, but also a bit of toughness.
Rin felt very familiar and thought about it.
Isn't that the trick his Demon King used when he was still in the green tea period? !
In comparison, the tea aroma in fox tea is really cute.
"Your name is... Rin, right? You should have seen that diary and know that all this happiness is just an illusion."
As she said, she picked up a photo frame, looked at the picture inside, and tears flowed down.
She forced a standard anime-style sad smile to Rin.
Irene lowered her head and continued, "My father was paralyzed due to an accident a long time ago, and my brother was an apprentice to a smelter. He also needed money to advance, which added up to a large amount."
"Then... my grandmother sold my mother to those who needed it. At that time, I saw several men kidnap my mother. I didn't know what happened until later..."
"My brother looked at me more and more strangely, and my sister always hated me because of my ugly appearance."
"This family began to become more and more hideous, dirty and ugly."
Rin crossed his arms and rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
"Um, aren't you all undead?"
He was straightforward, without any awareness of being a player.
Irene paused for a moment and nodded silently.
"I know I'm dead, but my family doesn't know. They died because of the curse, and they are trapped here forever because of the curse."
"The curse will turn them into monsters every night. I can only use my own strength to make them live like a normal family during the day."
"I thought that this would be enough... But more and more innocent souls are being hurt, I'm afraid..."
She lowered her head, her hands on her knees tightly clenched, biting her lower lip in pain.
"I'm afraid I can no longer resist the crazy curse, and finally become like them."
Rin touched her chin, her expression calm: "So you tell me all this, what for?"
"I know! You are humans from outside!"
She wanted to grab Rin's hand excitedly.
But Rin reacted quickly and subconsciously dodged.
Irene paused and begged: "Please, take me away, I'm willing to do anything for you, I know how to go to the deepest level, and I can even help you seize control of the entire dead city!"
Rin was stunned, full of weirdness.
Woc, what the hell is going on?
It's like meeting a beautiful BOSS in the primary dungeon of an online game.
She suddenly asks you to take her out of the dungeon, and also says that she will help you kill through the entire game and directly become the number one.
Isn't this a cool plot in online game novels?
Do you think I believe it! ?
Lin showed a mocking look on his face: "So, you know a lot about the Dead City? Can you tell me how to get to other levels and how to seize control?"
Seeing Lin's arrogance that was not concealed at all, Irene's eyes flashed with excitement.
She remembered the young master of the country baron's family, who also looked high and mighty, but compared with the young man in front of her, there was a huge gap between them.
In terms of temperament and appearance, he was completely trampled into the mud.
Even in this dead city, there are various spaces intersecting, she has the right to go to other places, and she has seen many dead spirits.
But even a prince of a country has never seen anything like what is in front of him.
Seeing that Lin was a little impatient and didn't take her seriously at all.
There was a faint light in Irene's eyes, and she explained.
"There are countless spaces on each floor of the Dead City, and you can travel through the 'doors'. All areas are fixed, and some are mobile, requiring the correct key.
The keys are given by the Dead City, and there are no keys to the next floor at ordinary times.
But this time, because of you outsiders, the rules of the Dead City have changed, and each area has a key to the next floor.
My family also has it, but it's with my sister, and you need to defeat her to get it."
"How can you, a low-level undead, know how to control the Dead City?"
"This is a secret. As for the way to seize it, I will tell you only when you get there."
Rin pulled the corner of his mouth disdainfully: "Even without you, this young master can get through the Dead City. I don't want to be followed by a strange undead."
"Apart from the current rules of the Dead City, my level is very high, enough to help you!"
Irene wanted to grab Lin's hand again, but he still dodged it.
The faint light in her eyes turned purple and became more and more intense.
"Even in the dead city, my combat power is considered high, much stronger than your two friends."
"I can give you everything, and even sign a master-servant contract with you. I am willing to do anything for you. Isn't it... better than them?"
The moment when Lin and Irene's eyes met, she was dazzled by the purple light in her eyes.
The girl who was obviously only a beautiful girl from a small family was charming at this moment, with a breathtaking and soul-stirring beauty.
My consciousness was in a trance at this moment, but it was soon awakened by a chill, and anger suddenly surged in my heart.
You stinky ghost, you actually used the bewitching skill on me.
Chapter 20 Lin? Just a scabbard that can be in and out at any time
Irene didn't notice that Lin had recovered from the bewitching state.
She was still using her skills with all her strength, the light in her eyes became brighter, and her voice became erratic.
"I'm much better than them, right?"
"Aren't you tired? They're always so annoying."
"They don't have any self-care ability. They need you to serve them for everything. You are obviously a noble young master with a noble status. Why do you lower your status?"
As Lin listened, crosses appeared on his head, and more and more of them appeared.
He lowered his head, his eyes switching between calmness and murderous intent, thinking about whether to take action.
Although this ghost is very narcissistic and has a problem with his brain, it seems to be really useful.
Irene didn't notice Lin's abnormality at all, and was completely immersed in her own fantasy.
"That pink-haired girl, she sticks to you wherever you go, like a dog-skin plaster on your body."
"You don't have any private space at all, don't you really feel suffocated?"
"And that blue-haired girl, she looks stupid and has no idea what she is doing, like a child, and needs you to worry about everything."
"She has no idea that her laziness is due to your tiredness."
"Even if she is a pet, she should at least make her owner happy?"
I can't bear it anymore!
A burst of anger almost squeezed out of the top of my head, and Lin lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly.
The sword pattern on the back of his hand, hidden in the white glove, was faintly glowing.
It seemed that it would explode at any time, just like his master.
But Irene was still immersed in her eloquence and bewitching skills.
I couldn't see Lin's expression, but only saw his slightly trembling body.
She thought she had hit the nail on the head of Lin, and her tone became more and more gentle.
"Master Lin, you have done enough, but they take it for granted. How can they bear to let you be like a servant?"
"And I will definitely be your most loyal servant. No matter what you want to do, I will do my best for you."
"Be your sharpest sword, the most loyal woman, the most fanatical follower..."
To be honest, this undead has a good eloquence.
But, that face is so excited that it is a little distorted, even to the level of facial expression.
And the stranger who met by chance and knew each other for a few hours, but still looks like he is dead set on you.
It's so fucking weird.
If he really falls into her tricky skills.
I'm afraid he will actually become a puppet, allowing her to manipulate his thoughts.
Thinking of this, Lin felt like he was crawled by leeches, his hair stood up, and he felt sick.
"Tsk."
