Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 29 Off-field Aid
In order to avoid being recognized, Wang Yue opened a small account to post on the forum.

"Xiao Nuo, take a quick photo."

Using the system's default camera to take pictures, Wang Yue captured the entire castle hall.

He took many photos, including the walls of the hall, the lighting at the top of the hall, the suspicious staircase, and more importantly, the parchment as a hint.

However, a lot of the content on the parchment was missing, so he could only post the recorded text.

"It's done."

After uploading the content, all netizens can see his post.

[Online help: I ​​am trapped in the game, come and save me]

The shameless Wang Yue changed her profile picture to a cute girl and chose a common cute nickname. She posted in a forum where only 42% of the posts were made by women, which greatly increased the chances of a reply.

"There's not much time left to answer the questions, so I'll think about it myself."

The post has been sent. While waiting, Wang Yue stood up and looked for answers in the hall.

"Will it be okay to just go upstairs?"

Wang Yue first walked to the stone staircase in the center of the hall and looked up. Above her head was a staircase that seemed to have no end, one layer after another without any change.

He chose to walk up and try it first. After stepping on the stone stairs, no prompts appeared in the game interface.

"There is no danger and the stairs have not changed."

Wang Yue walked up one step after another, and soon her head reached the ceiling of the hall and she saw a new floor.

However, this floor seemed familiar. He looked carefully and found that [Skeleton Butler] and Goudan were already on a new floor.

"What's happening here?"

Wang Yue lowered her head and looked down, and happened to see a head on the first step of the stairs.

The head was looking down at its feet, and it seemed to be his own head.

"No nesting dolls allowed. But this kind of looping scenario is prone to errors. Xiao Nuo, did you solve the problem yourself?"

“According to the update log 0.3, you gave up the attempt of looping scenes in that version, but I found that your original method was actually feasible, and after deduction, I came up with the latest algorithm.”

Since we already know that this is a circular staircase, there is no point in going up any further.

Wang Yue returned to the hall and opened the forum to see what suggestions netizens had.

[Kitty Cat: Escape Room? Where is the store? I’ll try it later]

[Flowers in full bloom: cpdd, beautiful ladies, please check the private message]

[Enthusiastic Netizen 3237: This seems to be the Heart of Noel that was leaked. Moderator please delete the post.]

[Steamed clam shell honey: Are puzzle games this year so realistic? Please post more pictures, I want to watch the live puzzle game]

[Pious mr.doggy: Oh my god, there are still people playing games without looking up guides these days]

Seeing that a bunch of replies were off topic, Wang Yue had given up hope on netizens. He quickly scrolled down until he found a reply named [Maple Leaf].

[Maple Leaf: Everything in the room is symmetrical. Find out if there is anything asymmetrical.]

"symmetry?"

Wang Yue turned his gaze from the forum back to the game world. Now half of the text on the parchment had disappeared, which meant that he still had half of the time left to explore.

He immediately set off and walked around the walls of the hall.

"The lighting runes are universal, and the text is almost identical. In order to illuminate all corners of the hall, there is a lighting rune at the same distance."

Wang Yue roughly scanned the runes on the wall and could see that the positions of the runes on the opposite wall were exactly the same, and the number was definitely the same.

He walked towards the gate, the flames of the two torches swinging constantly.

"Although it's because it's a game prop, the flames are indeed mirrored. The lighting runes are placed opposite each other, and the staircase is placed in the middle of the hall. There's nothing asymmetrical here."

The floor of the hall was very clean, with all-gray stone bricks, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

“So we ended up going back to the stairs.”

There are seventeen steps in the staircase. This is the only clue.

"So the entrance is hidden in the middle, on the ninth step."

Wang Yue believed that there was no other option, so he climbed up again and reached the ninth stone step.

He stood there waiting expectantly, but nothing happened and only three lines of text remained on the parchment.

"The location must be this place. What went wrong?"

Wang Yue hastily opened the forum and found the person named [Maple Leaf] and replied specifically.

[Red Skull: I have reached the ninth step of the stairs. What should I do next? ! ]

After replying, he glanced at the parchment in his hand and went back to refresh the post again.

The id [Maple Leaf] has not appeared yet, and the new replies are all from bored netizens who are talking about other things.

"Stop posting nonsense posts. It's daytime now, right? With so many of you slacking off, your boss will find out."

Wang Yue felt that the more she studied the puzzle, the bigger her head became, and time kept passing.

When there were five words left, he felt his palms sweating and his hand holding the parchment scroll was shaking slightly.

"Never mind. I'll just lie down and wait to die."

Finally, unable to wait for a reply from the other party, Wang Yue chose to lie on the stairs and wait for death.

And the next second after he lay down, the [Maple Leaf] finally replied to him.

[Maple Leaf: In the second paragraph, the ratmen and trolls survived, which should be a hint for you to lower your head.]

Unfortunately, Wang Yue did not see the reply, and he did not bow his head, but chose to lie down, which was even more extreme.

[Mission Target: Steward’s Trial (2/3)]

The puzzle mission was completed in a daze, and Wang Yue was teleported to the second floor of the castle. He vaguely heard the voice of the skeleton butler, which was a hint about the third trial.

"You have proven your courage and wisdom in the first two trials. The last trial requires you to prove your charm."

"Face the blue dragon Miffy and find a way to stop her from attacking you."

Charm? Wang Yue estimated that he did not have this attribute at all. If he had the charm value of an ordinary person, he would not have been single for so many years.

When his body landed on the ground again, he found himself back to his original starting point.

"A familiar location, a familiar corner of the corridor."

Purple carpet, four closed doors.

The difference is that he has been upgraded and can summon cannon fodder skeletons to defend himself from attacks.

"How about I check out the last room first?"

Wang Yue placed his hand on the door of [The Place of Dusk] and hesitated for a long time, but was still hesitant to take any action.

He hadn't forgotten how to open the door, but he really didn't know how to show his "charm".

"She killed me in seconds last time. It seems that a handsome guy like me is not her type."

Just as Wang Yue was hesitating, a pair of skeleton hands appeared from the shadow behind him.

These hands were the ones that pushed him into the [Bone Graveyard], and they were also the monsters that the game system had mentioned as hiding in the corridor.

[Strange Shadow: The shadow that is everywhere in the castle is the perfect assassin]

【grade:??】

Because of its assassin skills, its existence cannot be shown on the map.

Now the hands reached out to Wang Yue again, and pushed him forward while he was not paying attention.

In Wang Yue's eyes, he first saw the door without triggering the mechanism suddenly emit a purple light, and then his vision began to tilt.

It was not until he entered the [Place of Dusk] that Wang Yue realized that he was pushed.

"Strange Shadow, just wait for me."
