Chapter 690 High Risk


    The sound of music did not stop until nightfall. People who came from the county and people who were in this later medieval city stopped their processions and began to celebrate the festival.


    ??Both the dead and the living are walking around the city like normal people. At first glance, it is no different from a normal festival, except that from time to time you will see half a corpse lying in the street or alley.


    Xu Huo came to the square palace.


    The palace is built on a huge platform more than ten meters above the city. A plaque with the words "Sifang Palace" is hung on the main entrance. There are four floors in total. Each floor is guarded by men in black armor holding swords. There is even more in front of the gate. Six men in black armor were guarding the place. The big bell that had been heard from time to time was placed on the broad platform in front of the main entrance. There was a man in black armor standing on the left and right.


    There were also many fanatical believers gathered under the high platform of the palace. They were obviously irrational people, but they actually tried to climb up the high platform and rush into the palace.


    ?Of course they were all beaten back by the men in black armor. If they were accidentally beaten to death, their bodies would be dragged into the palace in full public view without causing any dispute.


    Xu Huo was standing on a building not far from the palace. Seeing this scene, he couldn''t help but raise his eyebrows. He took out the "Similar Searcher" and the distribution of props within a range of two hundred meters immediately appeared on the screen.


    ?Although the palace directly in front cannot be completely included, the information that can be obtained is enough.


    As expected, the drum and the man in black armor are both props, and they are both C-level props. There are also two props at the main entrance of the palace, one C and one B. They cannot be seen from the outside and should be placed inside the palace.


    An overlapping prop data suddenly appeared in the corner of the screen. He looked along the direction and found that it was a man in black armor walking towards the palace.


    ??The real Black Armored Man only has two or three props on his body. Most of this one''s body is D-level and E-level props. He is obviously a player disguised as a Black-armored Man.


    Xu Huo stood next to the railing and watched the other party walk into the door grandly. However, when he stepped in with his front foot, the door automatically closed with his back foot. Then a red light came out of the wooden window, and the next second the man in black armor suddenly knocked on the door with a hammer. On the drums, the sound waves released from the drums make people dizzy, even if they wear headphones to block their hearing, it will make people''s eyes black.


    Dizzy, Xu Huo involuntarily walked towards the palace. Also walking forward were several players mixed in the crowd.


    Under the sound of drums, the crowd of worshipers had stopped moving, and the players who suddenly moved around became particularly conspicuous. The crowd turned back one after another, staring directly at these players, and then stretched out their hands to tear their bodies. One of them had not yet turned back. The magical player''s hands and feet were torn off on the spot, and not only that, the crowd even surrounded them and started biting them!


    With such physical strength, they are definitely not ordinary people in the dungeon, these are all players!


    Xu Huo immediately retreated when he woke up and did not stop until he reached the entrance of the city.


    According to the spread range of the drum sound, this is the safest place in the entire city.


    Of course, in terms of distance, it is safer to enter the county town, but the county town that has been deserted should now be exposed to other dangers.


    ?Several overlapping prop data appeared on similar search engines, and Xu Huo turned around and moved toward the woods outside the city.


    ?The players in black shirts, Fu Danhong, Yi Pei and Fang Penghui are currently hiding in the grass and watching the stone road in the heavy fog.


    When they escaped from the hands of the black-armored men, they gave up on conquering the dungeon boss and planned to retreat to the county town until the dungeon time was over. However, there were black-armored men patrolling the city from a high position. Stone roads could be seen from all directions, and they were ready as soon as they walked up. target, so several people have been hiding nearby until now.


    It was just getting dark now. With the transfer of the sacrificial center, there were gradually fewer people at the entrance, and the number of people in black armor coming over was also decreasing, so they decided to wait until night to take a look.


    But just as they were waiting for an opportunity to act, several figures suddenly appeared on the stone road in the thick fog. When they heard the regular footsteps, their expressions changed. When they approached, they turned out to be several men in black armor. There were still several corpses in his hands, and they were the players who had hid back in the county before! The black-shirted player used the mute prop and said to the others: "It seems that no matter where you hide, you can''t avoid the black-armored people. The dungeon will definitely harvest all the players during the two days of the sacrifice."


    "Every time the drum sounds, the dizziness will increase. I''m afraid we will be controlled before the sacrifice is over." Yi Pei looked solemn.


    “I don’t know what other tricks the dungeon has.” Fu Danhong said: “Rather than just sit back and wait for death, why don’t we join forces to poke a hornet’s nest…”


    "Who!" Before she could finish her words, Yi Pei suddenly jumped up and looked at the woods behind with sharp eyes.


    ?The other people also quickly separated. If they hadn''t been concerned about the black-armored men nearby, they would have greeted them immediately.


    Xu Huo put away his invisibility tools and walked out from behind the tree.


    ?The expressions of several people suddenly relaxed, and Fu Danhong said: "I didn''t expect you to be still alive."


    Yi Pei couldn''t see the person clearly, but she could distinguish Xu Huo''s figure when he was standing in front of her, and couldn''t help but ask: "Are you coming from the Sifang Palace?"


    Xu Huo signaled them to lower their bodies, "I also saw the men in black armor who came from the county town. The road back to the county town is impassable. We can only stay in Sifang Palace City."


    Of course they understood. Fang Penghui pointed at his bloodshot eyes and said, "The longer you stay in the dungeon, the more deeply you will be affected by it. I am lucky to have escaped here. I am afraid I won''t be able to survive the seven days."


    "You''d better hold on." Xu Huo said: "Those players who were not dead before are now waiting in front of the Sifang Palace to eat people. They have already divided up three living people."


    ?Fang Penghui’s expression was dull, “This information is not helpful to me at all.”


    "This is very important information." Xu Huo said: "The three players who died entered the dungeon earlier than me and will be able to clear the level tomorrow night. It is harder for them to stay awake under the sound of drums than me."


    “That is to say, there are two factors to reduce the risk. First, the shorter the time to enter the instance, the better. Second, it is best not to hear the drum sound.”


    Fang Penghui understood. "If I were standing in front of the Sifang Palace now, I would have to wait to die."


    “There are intervals between drum beats.” The black-shirted player said, “I roughly estimated that the interval between drum beats is the same.”


    “It’s like ten minutes.” Yi Pei said.


    "But the impact of the drum sound on us is getting stronger every time." Fu Danhong said: "And we can''t guarantee that the drum must be beaten every ten minutes."


    "The sound of drums is secondary." Xu Huo said information that made the others even more desperate. "The things that can really affect people should be in the Sifang Palace. There is a red light in the palace, and 80% of the eyes that can cause people to hallucinate are there. It’s possible that the Sifang Palace, or the entire Sifang Palace, is a prop.”
