Chapter 3164: Detective is about to die (XV)
He was veiledly asking about one's luck points, and the Pale Knight stepped forward and said, "My luck has always been good, what's wrong?"
"I think you can go to the river and take a look. Maybe you can get the best and worst results."
Schiller's words were somewhat ambiguous, but fortunately there were no outsiders here, so it was fine as long as the other party could understand.
He actually just wanted the Pale Knight to take a gamble on a big success, or a big failure, so that he might catch a fish or see what was going on in the river.
"I think we can go first." The main universe Batman said, "This river must have an end. Maybe it would be better to test it at the end."
Schiller thought about it and agreed to his suggestion, and the group continued to move forward. The time here was not obvious, but Schiller knew that Batman should be counting seconds in his mind.
They didn't know how long they had been walking, but when they were all a little tired, Schiller suddenly saw a beam of light in front of them.
"Is that the exit?" Night Owl said with narrowed eyes.
Schiller suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him, because he saw a hazy shadow in the light, a bit like the reeds by the lake.
Walking a little closer, everyone saw a lake in front of them, with some reeds by the lake. There was a glowing hole above the right side of the lake, which seemed to lead to the surface.
Although it didn't look like a normal exit, it was the only clue so far. Schiller suddenly thought of the reeds on the body in the kitchen.
It was not cold in the cave, otherwise they would not have walked for so long, so the reeds here were also fresher. Schiller compared the two in his mind and found that the reeds on the corpse might have been picked up here.
If the corpse was the owner of the diary, was it because he came here to fish and was delayed in meeting the detective, which led to the tragedy of the two?
However, judging from the way the owner of the diary died, he should have successfully caught the fish and did not die here. Perhaps he had been prepared?
Schiller activated his spiritual vision and looked towards the reed marsh.
In an instant, he saw a glimmer of light beneath the dense reeds, and there was something in the center of the tangled roots.
In order to see clearly what it was, Schiller took two steps forward and got a little closer. The moment he saw the thing clearly, he let out another muffled groan, as if a needle was inserted into his eyeball.
Schiller stood there with his eyes closed for a long time to adjust himself. After opening his eyes, he found that there were some blood-red marks around his vision, and they did not change even though he turned his perspective.
His mental health seems to be a little dangerous.
However, his skills have not yet cooled down, so this is the only way for now.
Schiller saw that the dense roots were gradually winding into the shape of a human brain.
He took two steps back and said to the main universe Batman: "Shoot in the direction I point."
The main universe Batman walked over, but he actually saw nothing. He found that Schiller was referring to the roots of the reeds. He frowned and said, "Water will greatly reduce the impact of the bullet. It may not hit where you want it to."
Schiller estimated the distance in his mind and said, "You should be able to get there if you move forward about half a meter."
After saying that, he took a few steps to the side, indicating that he would not interfere with Batman. The main universe Batman glanced at him, but still took a few steps forward and aimed his gun.
boom!
Wow!
In an instant, the entire reed marsh was stirred up, like a ferocious beast that had been hit in a vital spot. All the reeds began to grow wildly, filling the entire lake within a few seconds.
"Run back!" Schiller shouted.
The others also reacted quickly. In fact, he didn't even need to shout. When there was any movement in the reed marsh, everyone turned around and ran.
The roots of the reeds were moving at a very fast speed beneath the surface of the river, and from time to time they would jump up and try to whip a few people.
But they all ran at a pretty fast pace. There were no idiots here who had no strength or agility at all. Everyone's numerical points were relatively balanced, so even after walking for such a long time, they were still able to run.
They ran back, and when they were almost halfway back, the reeds finally retreated.
Schiller felt that the Transcendent's cry of "The battle begins" was almost on the tip of his tongue, but was held back by their shameless strategic shift.
Schiller laughed in his heart. He was not stupid. Who would want to go head-on with something that looked like it was not on the same level as those corpses?
After the reeds were removed, the ground was full of fish.
The roots of the reeds stirred all the way in the river and would stretch out from time to time. There were already a lot of fish in the river, and after being stirred by the reeds, a lot of them turned belly up and were then brought to the shore by the reeds, and naturally became the team's catch.
Bruce walked over and picked up one, but he really couldn't see any difference between it and an ordinary fish. The main universe Batman stood beside him, thinking about something.
"What about the fish?" Bruce asked.
"Just stay here," Schiller said. "You can come back and get it when you need it. Let's go to the previous exit and have a look."
As they walked along, there were so many fish that there was almost no place to step on the ground. When they arrived at the lake, they found that the entrance to the lake area was blocked by dense reeds.
The reeds were full of water, so it was impossible to burn them. But now the only passage was blocked completely, and there seemed to be no other way but to fight it head-on.
But at this moment, Schiller suddenly took out a sharp kitchen knife from his lapel.
Night Owl, who was holding a flashlight, was dazzled by the cold light of the blade. Then he remembered that the knife he used to dissect the corpse in the kitchen seemed to have never been put down.
Schiller took out the knife and chopped the reeds in front of him. Reeds were not big trees, but just ordinary herbs, so it was easy to cut them.
Schiller hacked and chopped for a while and barely made a path that people could pass through. He asked Night Owl to shine a flashlight over there and found that it was relatively calm.
However, it is still risky to go in at this time, because what if Lu Wei is just pretending to be calm, and when they get close, he blocks the retreat route and catches them in a jar, which would be a bit troublesome.
Fortunately, there was still light coming through the hole above the head, which proved that the hole was not sealed. Next, it was time to compete in agility.
Schiller rushed over, and sure enough, the moment he got close to the lake, the reeds began to move again.
Without even looking, he rushed towards the cave entrance. The reeds under his feet were growing wildly, trying to trip him up. The grass leaves in the air were also waving wildly, and Schiller barely dodged them.
However, when he was close to the cave entrance, the red dice appeared again. His dexterity was 18>15. Schiller reached out and grabbed the edge of the cave entrance. With a little force, he pulled himself up.
The others did not wait for Schiller to succeed before setting off, but followed him all at once. They dodged the reeds on the road relying on their own reaction abilities, but they had to test themselves when they reached the cave entrance.
Clown dexterity 22＞15 passed.
Pale Knight's Dexterity 16＞15 passed.
Greedy Dexterity 31＞15 passed.
Three people came up one after another, leaving only three Batmen at the bottom. If they were based on their own abilities, they should have been the fastest, but Batman is Batman, they let the others run first and they stayed behind.
It was mainly because Batman from the main universe thought so. Bruce, for some reason, followed him and fell behind. Night Owl was worried about Bruce, so he also followed behind.
The result is that the reeds have exploded to the entire surface of the lake, and the difficulty of the Dexterity check has increased dramatically.
Bruce's dexterity 25 < 30 failed.
Bruce's hand had already touched the edge of the cave, and the reeds wrapped around his legs and pulled him down, smashing him hard against the wall next to him, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Night Owl Agility 18＜30 failed.
Night Owl had no time to get close to the cave entrance. A sharp reed leaf pierced his shoulder and threw him aside. The smell of blood instantly filled the air.
But there is always someone stronger than you. The failure of Bruce and Night Owl is regrettable, but the luck of Batman in the main universe is even more shocking.
The main universe Batman's agility 12 < 30 is a big failure.
The reed blade twisted into a drill bit pierced through his chest, and the pupils of the main universe Batman shrank instantly.
At this moment, a dark shadow jumped down from the cave again, picked up the hunting rifle that was shot out, and shot at the reeds behind.
boom!
Unfortunately, the hunting rifle was not a shotgun, and it could only barely repel the leaves behind. Schiller rolled to the left, ran quickly under the oncoming leaves, and pulled the Night Owl over.
Bruce was the least injured. After being thrown against the wall, he almost immediately got up and ran towards the cave entrance.
When he was about to reach the cave entrance, Schiller had already dragged the main universe Batman over. The two of them worked together to lift the main universe Batman who had suffered a heavy blow up, and the several people above also worked together to pull the main universe Batman up.
Night Owl was still able to move around. He jumped up and grabbed the edge with one hand, but the Pale Knight pulled him up.
Schiller used a kitchen knife to cut off two reeds that flew over, stepped on the reed leaves next to him and jumped up, successfully returning to the top of the cave entrance.
Everyone escaped and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Schiller put away the knife and looked around the environment.
Unexpectedly, this was not outdoors, but a small room that looked like a warehouse with curved walls. Various boxes were piled up against the wall, which looked like some daily necessities.
Schiller walked over to take a look and found some durable vegetables such as onions, potatoes, carrots, butter, flour and canned meat, some daily necessities such as toilet paper underneath, and two barrels of gasoline in another corner.
Others were checking on their teammates' injuries.
Bruce was the least injured, with only slight abrasions on his back. The blood he spat out was actually from biting his tongue when he lost balance when landing, which was a very common injury in this situation.
And Bruce's handling of the situation was also correct. Since the tongue was injured, the blood had to be spit out immediately, otherwise it would be easy to choke or suffocate, so he was in the best condition.
Night Owl had a reed nail piercing his shoulder, but the reed that pierced his shoulder was very thin, and his own attributes were relatively high, so there was no problem after stopping the bleeding.
The one who has a real problem is the main universe Batman who failed miserably. The reed that pierced his chest was made of several twisted together, almost as thick as steel bars. Although his heart has not been injured so far, without any emergency treatment, the bleeding cannot be stopped, and his blood volume is almost gone visibly.
Schiller walked over to check the injuries of the main universe Batman, but when he squatted facing Batman, he clearly saw Batman's lip shape.
"You're not the Doctor, who are you?"
His hand paused while checking the wound, and Schiller smiled and mouthed to him: "An ordinary agent."
Do you think the game is over after a big failure at the beginning? It has just begun!
