Chapter Thirty-Six Thieves Longing for Freedom(1/2)
One of them fought, and the other kept looking for clues in the study. Apart from the monster's roar and Clausi's sound of throwing cards, there was only the sound of flipping the book.
Clausi repelled the monster again. He turned his head to look at Tang Jiumin who was searching for clues in the study, and then urged: "Have you found it? What kind of hell is this guy?"
At this moment, Tang Jiumin had searched for a lot of things, and he replied: "I probably figured it out."
"A diary mentioned that the castle had been invaded by political enemies from the palace, but they did not dare to come openly, but sent two thieves. Then the castle owner caught these two thieves and locked them up somewhere."
"It seems that the monster may be related to these two thieves."
In fact, Tang Jiumin was talking about the content of the diary he had seen before, but now he found clues to the relevant directions.
Clausi looked at the monster rushing over again, with two heads and eight feet.
"You mean this monster is the two thieves who invaded the castle?"
This copy has a very strong taste. Looking at this stitching monster, Clausi twitched the corner of his mouth.
Tang Jiumin shrugged and replied: "Based on the clues I found, it is probably that way. If you try to cut it open, maybe you will know the answer."
"What you said was easy."
Claus sighed and drew out a few more playing cards. When he saw three square suits in the five cards he drew, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then threw the three cards out with all his strength.
Flush, squares, as Tang Jiumin guessed, these cards of Clausi have different effects in different combinations.
Cards with the same number will have damage superimposed, and the more cards the more damage will increase.
In terms of the color of the flowers, red peaches represent explosions, blocks represent cutting.
The steel card instantly passed through the monster with a power that was invisible to the naked eye, and cut the monster into half like cutting tofu.
This monster with an eight-clawed spider fell to the ground, making a sticky sound.
“Huh?”
"This is……"
Clausi looked at these huge pieces of meat carefully, because the monster was equivalent to being dismembered by him with playing cards, so it was divided into several parts.
The monster was injured, and the black fog lingering around it dissipated a lot, so they saw clearly what the monster was composed of.
Have hands and feet.
At first, Clausi felt that he saw the monster's eight legs, but in fact it was not. In fact, the so-called eight legs were actually four hands and four legs.
Two right hands, two left hands, two right legs, and two left legs.
"It's true." Claus was a little surprised. He was already ready to evacuate first, but he didn't expect that Tang Jiumin had guessed correctly.
Immediately afterwards, the meat pieces on the ground that were divided into several parts by steel playing cards began to squirm and moved towards the monster's main body.
The nearest pieces have been in contact with the main body and then slowly merge.
This thing cannot be killed by force alone, because it cannot be killed at all.
Claus quickly looked back at Tang Jiumin and said, "Since they are really those two thieves, what should we do now? It is impossible to let them be attacked and restored and attack repeatedly."
“I need to consume magic when using playing cards and can’t hold on too many times.”
"Let's think of a solution."
Tang Jiumin said: "You are giving me some time. If you want to solve them, you must know what they are unwilling or resentful."
"Okay, okay, okay, you keep going, but there's not much time left."
Clausi fought with the monster, and Tang Jiumin frowned and thought.
All the clues that can be found at present, but they are still not very specific.
This monster took the initiative to attack people as soon as it appeared. It was obviously an evil ghost. According to Tang Jiumin's previous speculation, solving the evil ghosts requires knowing their obsessions.
What is the obsession between the two thieves?
They were spies sent by the castle owner's political opponents, and were finally caught by the castle owner, so it would be best to know how they died.
Of course, they must have been killed by the castle owner.
Tang Jiumin stared at the monster that dissipated from the black fog. At this moment, the monster returned to its original state, and the black fog slowly began to condense around its entire body. But at this moment, Tang Jiumin saw clearly what the monster that had recovered from its original state looked like.
Those are two people who are twisted together.
But why are they twisted together?
The black mist appeared again, and the monster let out a dull low growl.
Suddenly, Tang Jiumin thought of an existence, a ghost of black robe. At this time, the monsters in front of him were very similar to those monsters. The roars and the fog around him were almost exactly the same as the immortal characteristics.
In the dungeon, when one player becomes a black-robed ghost, he will take the initiative to attack the other player. In order to protect himself, players in normal state also have to attack players who become a black-robed ghost.
In a sense, this is killing each other.
So! These two thieves?
A flash of inspiration in Tang Jiumin's mind.
"I understand." Tang Jiumin suddenly said, and at the same time, he kept looking for various cabinets, desks, and bookshelfs in the study.
"What do you understand?" Clausi was slid against the monster, and the pressure was all on him. At this time, he suddenly heard Tang Jiumin explain clearly and he asked loudly.
"Do you look at the two thieves, do they look like they are killing each other? I guess this is what they look like when they die."
"How then how could two men who were originally accomplices declare death by killing each other? Unless someone forces them to kill each other, this man is the Marquis of Coles, the owner of the castle."
The reason for death?
Clausi once again said, "You make sense. The question is what does this have to do with solving this guy? What should I do?"
Clausi said, throwing two more playing cards at the monster and knocking them out.
"They have undoubtedly become prisoners, and the one thing that prisoners desire most is freedom. For them, freedom is freedom."
"I am 90% sure that their obsession is freedom and liberation."
Freedom? Very good inference.
So Clausi said, "The obsession with completing the monster is to release it and leave the castle?"
"It would be great if it was so simple, definitely not, because if it wanted to do so, why did it attack us instead of escaping from the study?"
"Give me some more time and wait until I confirm another question."
During the period when the two of them had just communicated, Tang Jiumin kept searching for things.
"Okay, hurry up. This guy has been dismembered by me several times. His strength after each reorganization is stronger than before. I may not be able to stop him if I come a few more times!"
Clausi said, throwing out the playing card of Xiao Wang who had been floating beside him.
Unlike the previous playing cards, Xiao Wang turned into a silver warrior holding two silver swords.
As soon as the silver warrior appeared, he took the initiative to rush towards the reorganized monster.
His attack speed was very fast, and the long sword in his hand continued to cut into the monster's body. Soon, the monsters in the secret room were covered with bruises.
He slashed back and forth several times, cut off the two left legs of the monster that had just been reorganized, causing great damage to the monster.
"roar!!!"
The monster was in pain and roared angrily, then used the remaining two right legs and four hands to rush towards the silver warrior.
The silver warrior crossed his two long swords in front of his chest, pushed forward, and met the monster's impact.
The monster's huge body rushed up.
The silver warrior was knocked back, but the crossed sword successfully blocked the monster's huge body.
The monster was more aggressive than before. After being forced to stop, it stretched out its hands in front.
Let's call it the hand, because this has completely turned into a purple-black arm and does not look as harmless as an ordinary arm.
The left and right hands crossed the cross sword and smashed the silver warrior's armor.
At this moment, a huge metal sound rang out, and the monster's hands smashed out very powerfully.
The more powerful one is the Silver Warrior, because it only shattered a little bit of armor, and there was no other damage seen.
The huge movement made Tang Jiumin glance subconsciously, and then he turned around and continued to search.
However, he said, "Is your playing cards inherited or bloodline? It can explode and cut general attacks, and enhance perception and summon such powerful warriors. It's a bit useful."
When Clausi heard Tang Jiumin's words, he didn't hide it. He said, "It's just a heritage, but this thing is not suitable for everyone, but it is especially suitable for me."
"oh?"
"Because I can draw good cards every time."
Clausi's answer made Tang Jiumin understand. No wonder the points suits and colors of the opponent's playing cards are different every time, and the attack methods are diverse. It seems that this is related to the cards drawn.
but……
Tang Jiumin said without looking back: "It's really suitable for you. Since you saw you, you have been moving your fingers inadvertently, and you rub them involuntarily when you take out the cards."
"Only old gamblers who often stay in casinos have this habit, which means that you should spend all year round in casinos during your lifetime."
"You are also very experienced in drawing cards, and you are habitually blocking your vision, so you can know that you are not only an old gambler, but also good at making thousands of dollars."
