Chapter 140 Disaster Level
"It looks like a feud between the kitchen maid and the study maid, just like the rumor incident written in the night watchman's investigation report." Miaobishenghua finished reading the diary and turned to Enbuseng and said.
Entropy is not increasing and is very puzzled: "It is a bit similar... but it is also very inconsistent."
"What do you mean?" The diary was stunned when it found the human spirit. "Is there something wrong with this diary?"
Miaobishenghua nodded and said, "This game pursues realism to an unhealthy degree. If this is really the diary of a kitchen maid, then there is no way she would hide such a personal item in a public place like the hall. Why not put it in her own room?"
Zhao Zhenzhen, who was walking around the fireplace, suddenly turned her head towards this side.
She had experienced firsthand that the two young girls, Entropy and Miaobishenghua, were very perceptive. In order to prevent them from taking the wrong approach to solving the puzzle or thinking about things that were beyond their reach, she had to step in.
"That's probably what you said, the reason why this game pursues realism too much." Zhao Zhenzhen made a prompt move and said, "Kitchen maids are relatively low-ranking maids. They probably don't have their own rooms. If the diary is placed in her own residence, it will be easier for it to be discovered."
"Ah." Miaobishenghua clenched his fist and said suddenly, "No wonder the diary entries are always so short. It's because the kitchen maid needs to write the diary as quickly as possible and then hide it. She doesn't have time to write a long article ."
"Maids of different ranks enjoy different treatments...Then the kitchen maid's jealousy of the study maid should not only be due to Master William, but may also be related to the difference in status and treatment between the two." En Buzeng touched his chin and said, "The kitchen maid can read and write, but she didn't get the position of study maid. This may be the main reason."
"It's just jealousy and quarreling among maids. I don't think it's likely to turn into something serious." Miaobishenghua narrowed his eyes and said, "The hatred of the kitchen maid towards the study maid should only be the lead to the clues."
"Kashmir." En Buzeng followed the thought process of the brilliant writer with a blink of an eye, and said sharply, "Master William is an outsider... The study maid and four low-level servants survived in the night watchman's report. Investigator 'Goldfish' was also a survivor at that time. They are locals."
“In other words… those who died first, including Master William himself, his valet, the butler, the gardener, the coachman, and the kitchen maid, were most likely all Kashmiris,” he said brilliantly.
Entropy nodded vigorously: "The disaster at Redwall Farm is aimed at the Kashmiris. Only the locals who come into contact with them will be harmed, while others are relatively safe. It is not an imminent crisis. This should be the main reason why the Night Watchmen of the Gold Coin Church have treated Redwall Farm coldly and ignored it for more than two years."
"Then the focus of the disaster should be on Master William who came to Innadri before the autumn harvest in 1029." Miaobishenghua said affirmatively, "We need to focus on searching the master's room for mission props related to Kashmir, especially the room of this master and the residence of the personal servant. These two people were the first to hear the laughter and the first to show abnormalities."
After finishing the analysis, Miaobishenghua, who was very active, immediately waved his bone claws and said, "Let's go upstairs!"
Players: “…(° △°(° △° (° △° )”
En Bu Zeng walked a few steps and found that no one except her and Miao Bi Sheng Hua moved, so she turned back and urged: "Let's go? What are you doing?"
Players: “Oh, here it comes!”
"They figured out the clues just by chatting for a while?" An orange cat who had just come online and put on his equipment looked confused.
"These two bosses are like this, you'll just get used to it." Shenmi Xuexi said.
In the Exile Town, which was several hundred kilometers away, Yang Qiu rested his chin on his hand and calmly observed the group of players.
Yang Qiu noticed something was wrong when Zhao Zhenzhen came into contact with the Night Watchmen of the Gold Coin Church... If he hadn't been busy transferring mental power through the branding matrix to link the properties and cover for Zhao Zhenzhen who dared to run to the Night Watchmen of the Church after using a fraudulent orb, Zhao Zhenzhen would have died back in Westram long ago.
The other party took the risk in order to solve Westham's financial crisis, so Yang Qiu naturally wouldn't blame him. Who would gossip about a tool serving them?
Besides, Zhao Zhenzhen had never been able to fool the Gold Coin Church... She was just trying her best to increase her income and earn gold coins, but they were directly trying to kill her - those bastards actually threw this disaster that could be classified as a level three threat to a novice exorcist. Their hearts were so cruel that they had no limits.
Generally speaking, the various church night watch organizations are accustomed to calling events that (potentially) cause large-scale deaths (more than ten deaths) disaster events, and divide them into four levels according to the threat of the disaster.
The most common one is level four disaster.
Ordinary people who come into contact with occult knowledge without permission may lose control of their minds and fall into depravity, or call upon the name of an unmentionable being, causing dire consequences, which will often implicate all related parties, and not only will their own families be destroyed, but their relatives, friends, and neighbors may also be affected.
This kind of tragedy happens more often among ordinary people, because anyone with a little common sense about mysticism will have the instinct to avoid in time and stop the spread of danger... For example, Rex, who knew he was about to lose control and hid in the Sorenson Mountains.
Above this is the third level of disaster.
This is not the level of threat that can be caused by one person's own death. Most of them are related to cultists' cult sacrifices or sealed objects. They usually result in the deaths of hundreds or even thousands of people. The "Exile Town Main Storyline" compiled by Yang Qiu belongs to this level.
A second-level disaster is either caused by a forbidden seal or an invasion of void demons caused by an unstable space-time rift... It is possible that one or two cities will become dead cities or a country will be destroyed.
A level one disaster is the revival of the ancient god.
Based on Yang Qiu's experience, this incident was a level three disaster.
The person involved is a noble from Kashmir. When Yang Qiu saw the report of the Night Watch through the spiritual imprint with the player, he knew that this matter had nothing to do with the evil cult - the Kashmir territory did not belong to the Rhine Kingdom, but to the Rhine Kingdom's eastern neighbor, the powerful Nosk Federation with a long coastline and vast territory.
The Nosk Federation is the territory of the Storm Church.
The style of the Storm Church is not as casual and lax as that of the Gold Coin Church. Not to mention it is a cult, even pagans of the right religion have no place to stand in Nosk... As long as the Nosk nobles who have families and jobs are not crazy, it is basically impossible for them to be involved in cult-related things.
It is targeted at specific groups of people (Kashmiris and Rhine people who have had close contact with Kashmiris) and is 100% lethal. And if the possibility of a cult is ruled out, then there is only one answer - the Sealed Object!
Obviously, the Gold Coin Church had long known that there was a sealed object hidden in the Red Wall Farm, which was why they had been slow to deploy manpower to resolve the incident after closing the farm - to contain the sealed object would cost lives.
Zhao Zhenzhen's exorcist vest is definitely not the first civilian to receive this commission in the past two years. The Gold Coin Church's operation of using wild exorcists as cannon fodder to take risks for them is simply outrageous.
However... Yang Qiu not only had no intention of stopping this malicious commission, but was even prepared to assist the players if necessary...
The Gold Coin Church used his players to take risks, so it was only natural for him to steal the sealed object. Wasn't it?
Anyway, players are afraid of nothing, but they will never be afraid of containing the sealed objects that will cost their lives, so it is a sure win.
Under Yang Qiu's caring gaze, the players went up the stairs to the second floor.
As soon as he entered the second floor, an orange cat in the middle of the team suddenly felt a strong discomfort that was difficult to describe in words.
"Strange... why do I suddenly feel unwell?" An orange cat scratched its arm and asked puzzledly.
"What tricks are you planning to play now, Mr. Orange Cat?" The Runaway Goldfish said coldly beside him.
"I'm not kidding, okay? I really feel... I can't describe it, I just feel uncomfortable." A ginger cat tried to explain, but after thinking for a while he couldn't come up with a more appropriate word, so he said in confusion, "Let's put it this way, it's like the stuffy and nauseous feeling you get when you're near a large garbage bin. Do you understand?"
"What the hell are you talking about?" The runaway goldfish didn't believe it.
"Brother, we are from the dead. The dead have no noses and have a poor sense of smell." The one who was addicted to studying had the same opinion as the runaway goldfish and glanced at a ginger cat.
Yang Ying, who was walking in front, hesitated and stopped, saying uncertainly: "Well... I don't feel right either. I don't know why, but I feel uncomfortable after going up to the second floor."
Huan Ling heard someone else speak up, and then he raised his hand: "And me, I also think this floor is weird."
Miaobishenghua and Enbuseng looked at each other and said in unison: "Who else thinks something is wrong?"
The players looked at each other and no one said a word.
Zhao Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment before raising her hand: "I do have one... but it's just a tool account, so it may not be accurate."
"It's definitely true. Sister Zhao, you're also a ghost." Miaobishenghua nodded.
The player who was "infected" with the death warning raised his hand weakly: "Well, does it count if the noises of giggling are getting more frequent?"
"Hurry up and log off and back on." Miaobishenghua waved his hand, "So, Boss Orange Cat, Sister Ying, Sister Zhao and Huanling all felt something was wrong at the same time?"
"Come to think of it, you were the first ones to hear the giggling sound." En Buzeng touched his chin and said, "Could it be that you have something in common?"
"Huh? Something in common?" Huanling was confused. "How can the orange cat boss be compared ?"
There was an orange cat: "What the hell?! What do you mean??"
"Hmm...wait a minute, the Orange Cat Boss also has special skills." En Bu Zeng's eyes became sharp, "The Orange Cat Boss has been online for a long time, and his potential value has exceeded 100 just like you. Among us, only the four of you are at level two."
"When the potential value exceeds 100, the upper limit of the energy bar and the recovery speed will be improved." Miaobishenghua said thoughtfully, "Since this game has a restraining element, it means... the higher the level , the higher the inspiration?"
"——Wait a minute!" Huanling stretched out his hand, "Don't you two say that the higher the level of this game, the more unlucky it is! Who the hell would stay online every day to level up?!"
Entropy Buzeng said: "As for the element of restraint, the higher the level and the higher the inspiration, the more likely it is to get into trouble. But conversely, high-level players are also more likely to detect crises."
"That's right." Miaobishenghua seamlessly continued, pointing sideways to the deep corridor on the second floor, "For example, right now, those of us who haven't reached level two know nothing about the crisis, but you have already noticed it."
