Chapter 3172 The Detective is about to die (Twenty-three)
What bothered Schiller was Night Owl.
Night Owl was not a good person. He was a member of the evil Batman camp, and he was always attracted by Bruce.
But he was a policeman. Logically, it was unlikely that the American police would arrive so early. His early appearance meant that he had other intentions.
Schiller was not sure whether Night Owl knew that Bruce was also in the game when he was making up the background story. If he knew, he would definitely try to make up a background story that was close to Bruce, and he would naturally stand on Bruce's side.
But the identity of the police was very important, because many files could only be found in the police station, and the police naturally had the right to ask questions. To find out what was going on in the village, it was easiest to use the identity of law enforcement officers to investigate directly.
But if Night Owl was also a black policeman and his purpose was to come and silence them, it would definitely cause them great trouble.
Night Owl was a pure brother control, and Bruce had the advantage in this regard. Schiller knew that he was not very good at attracting other people's attention at the moment, and it would be difficult to win Night Owl over.
In this case, he had to prepare for the worst, that is, the main universe Batman with the highest force died on the spot, and he and the Pale Knight stood on the same front to deal with the remaining three people.
Don't ask why Schiller joined if he couldn't beat them. As long as there was greed in the opposite camp, he would not join, because greed would not let go of every Schiller equally.
Thinking of this, Schiller stood up and said, "Let's do this, everyone who can stand up will go."
Everyone turned to look at him, and Schiller said, "Except for Mr. Hunter, the others are not seriously injured. If we all leave, there is no value in attacking here."
"Are you going to give up on him?" The Pale Knight frowned and looked at Schiller.
"Professional doctors have given the answer." Schiller said, "He is beyond saving. It is irrational to slow down our investigation for a dying man."
"I disagree." The Pale Knight said, "Since you can heal our spirits, there must be a way to heal our bodies. It is too early to talk about giving up now."
"I don't agree either." Greed said, "Mr. Hunter was seriously injured in order to cover our retreat. For humanitarian reasons, we can't just leave him here."
Schiller doesn't know who is the villain now. Why does he seem to be the cold-blooded one?
"Then you can take him with you." Schiller said, "Then pray that the Prowler doesn't attach to him and doesn't bite your neck off the moment he becomes a corpse."
"I'll stay and take care of him." Night Owl said, "The injuries of the two of us are the most serious among all of them. If we stay to rest, perhaps the situation will be much better. And if we are attacked, your losses will not be too great."
Everyone was silent. This seemed to be the only way. The main universe Batman, who was about to die, and Night Owl, who had lost half of his arm, were the least valuable among all of them. They had almost no combat power. Even if something happened, it would not be considered a weakening for the team.
"Now is not a good time for you to be kind, young master." Schiller looked at Greed and said, "If you really want to do something, go take a portrait of them."
After that, Schiller turned and walked out the door. Greed showed an angry expression and threw half of the bread in his hand to the side, as if he had no appetite at all.
Except for Night Owl, everyone else followed Schiller out one after another. Greed walked in the back. Soon, Night Owl and the main universe Batman were the only two people left in the small room.
Schiller first came to the second floor, and searched the room where Jeff was, but found nothing.
Then he went to the third floor, to the room with the trap, squatted down, untied the trap and held it in his hand, went back to the first floor, and put it at the entrance of the stairs on the first floor. He explained.
"If the Prowler really possessed Mr. Hunter and controlled his body to leave the room after his death, the sound of the trap can remind us and delay time."
"Do you think he will come up to us?" The Pale Knight's brows never relaxed. He always felt that Schiller was a little strange.
"The monster's purpose is to kill people. It's faster to block us upstairs than to leave the lighthouse and go to the village." Schiller said as he walked up the stairs, and said: "Killing us won't affect him returning to the village to kill people later."
The Pale Knight reluctantly accepted this statement. After thinking about it, he said: "Should we send someone to guard downstairs?"
"Who do you think can beat the Wanderer?"
Schiller's rebuttal made the Pale Knight stunned, but what he said was indeed reasonable. The remaining few people were not good at fighting. With the cooperation of others, it might be okay to deal with a corpse, but it's better not to think about fighting alone.
"Then we can send two people." Greedy said: "Two people go downstairs to guard, and three people go upstairs to explore, that's just right."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a black muzzle of a gun pointed at his forehead. Schiller, who was standing on the upper stairs, turned around and pointed the shotgun at his forehead from top to bottom and said: "You'd better keep your mouth shut during the next exploration."
Greedy said embarrassedly: "Aren't you afraid that the monster will attach to me? Will you curse yourself if you attack me with firearms?"
"I am the clergyman. Madeleine's conclusion is wrong. Attacking monsters with firearms will not be cursed."
Schiller has figured everything out at this time. Among all the settings, the only ones he can trust are the rules told to him by the Beyonder himself and the opening animation. Everything else that appears in the game may be someone else's attempt to weaken it. Settings made by others.
For example, you cannot use firearms to attack monsters. This is just Madeline's research. No one knows what Madeline's status is in academia. She is most likely just a character in a backstory casually made up by a player.
In addition to using her to complete their origin story, they also wanted to use her mouth to speak out the rules they set themselves.
The rule that you cannot attack monsters with firearms is obviously linked to the Prowler's possession rules.
It is known that if you shoot a monster with a gun, you will be cursed. The prowler will be possessed, but not necessarily who it is. This will cause people with guns to not dare to shoot at their companions. If they hit the prowler, they will not be able to shoot. Cursed?
Everyone starts with different initial props, but as long as you watch the opening credits, you can definitely expect that someone will have a gun. Again, shooting a monster with a gun may not cause any harm, but it can definitely threaten someone.
Therefore, in order to level the gap between themselves and gun owners, there must be people who will find ways to minimize the threat of the gun as a prop.
The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.
They can't make the gun owner unable to fire the gun through the background story, but they can add settings out of thin air to make the gun owner have concerns.
In this way, it will be difficult to directly rely on guns to gain the greatest say in the team, while those without guns can more smoothly compete for say.
When making up the background story, although you don't know whether others have guns, you can infer whether you have guns based on your own identity. For professions like painters and photographers, the probability of having guns is very low.
Therefore, it is set that the person who attacks monsters with firearms will be cursed, must be a person without a gun.
Although the scope was still large, Schiller felt that it was greed that did it.
Fortunately, although Arrogance didn't make up a good background story for himself, his profession was his biggest advantage. The clergy who were taught in the field of monsters were the authority.
If he said it's okay to use firearms, then it's okay. If others want to refute, they must give examples, but their identity and profession are destined to be unable to give examples. If a photographer understands monsters better than the priest, his character will collapse. Already?
Schiller realized that his advantage was not any backstory he had made up before, but what he was saying now. No one with the professional knowledge or professional background to refute what he said would be silenced if he tried to speak.
After thinking about this, Schiller's steps became a little lighter. He put away the gun and turned upstairs. He went to the third floor and took a look at the place where the door number fell. Through the light coming from the window, he saw the ceiling. There seems to be traces of glue on it.
So the door number was not thrown here by some supernatural power, but was stuck to the ceiling and fell down again.
If this is a trap set by greed, just to frame Naiya, he must set up a reason in the backstory for someone to do this.
The hunting dog on the first floor, the bear trap in the room, and the tripwire mechanism in the warehouse should all be traps left here by the lighthouse keeper. He may want to rely on these traps to deal with intruders.
Then the door number may also be a trap, but I haven't seen any lethality so far. Could it be a curse or something?
Wait a moment, Schiller suddenly thought, the world view of the hotel and the world view of the game they are in now should be the same, right?
There are also various anomalies and monsters in the hotel, and these monsters also have various restrictions. Although it was finally proved to be Naia's conspiracy, the transcendent can also directly use the worldview of that universe. , he dares to directly copy and paste the arrogant skills, what else can he not dare to do?
If this is the case, it would be equivalent to the entire world now being a large hotel, except that the hotel rooms with various abnormal phenomena have become cities or villages.
If the world view was copied by a transcendent, he would not copy it mechanically, but would find a reasonable reason to explain how such strange situations arise.
Could he be setting the hotel up to be the source of the spread of weirdness?
If that weird hotel had truly existed in the history of this world, then the 1913 door number was not something thrown across the world, but an antique from this world that just appeared in the lighthouse for some reason.
Schiller took out the house number from his arms and looked at it carefully, but found no clues.
And if the hotel's rules still apply here, can he re-enter the mysterious room 1913 as long as he nails the door number in the designated location?
What will be in the room? What does that have to do with the current state of the world?
