Chapter 193 Chapter 197: Showdown

Rob is dead.

His pupils looked at the corridor blankly, and his mouth opened into a shouting posture, as if he wanted to scold Eric for knocking him down the stairs, or as if he was silently calling for help.

Blood seeped from the back of his head, merging with the dripping red liquid from the armor.

"Rob...Rob, didn't he run away?!"

Eric propped his hands behind his back, subconsciously stepped back to the wall, "It wasn't me, I didn't kill him!"

Willa hurried down the stairs to examine Rob's fatal wound.

She took a few steps closer before she saw Rob's open mouth, with a piece of tongue missing.

It's the tongue in the glass bottle.

It turns out that its owner is Rob.

"..." Vera clenched her fists tightly, and it took a long time to calm down her nervousness.

She shouted to the three people who were still stunned at the top of the stairs: "Can someone help remove Rob's armor? I need to check his body."

August immediately ran down the steps to help, but Mahao was thinking about what was wrong.

According to Vera's reasoning, the ghost's behavior is related to the supernatural book in the study.Ghosts kill people in order to collect human body parts and use them as sacrifices to summon the dead.

This reasoning is indeed reasonable now, but it is completely different from the plot of "Paranormal Phenomena Research Society".

In the book, there is no content related to "summoning magic".Besides, the ghost itself is a dead thing, why should he summon the undead?

While Ma was thinking about it, Augus had already begun to dismantle Rob's armor.

This armor looks heavy, and it is even more difficult to disassemble.

Augers tried two or three times, but couldn't get it off Rob.In other words, he simply couldn't find where to start disassembling the armor.

Vera didn't pay attention at first. After Augus failed several times in succession, she discovered that the structure of the armor was very strange.There is a small keyhole-shaped hole on the far right side of the waist.

"Augus, don't disassemble it yet."

Vera stopped Augus' movement, pointed to the small hole in the armor and said, "Let's see what this is, does it look like a keyhole?"

Ma took a good look and saw that the small hole was indeed very similar to the shape of a key.

On the right side of the arm and leg of the armor, there are also such small holes.

Is it possible that there is a lock inside this armor and a key is needed to take it apart?
Vera took out the keys in her pocket, the bunch of keys she found in the servant's room, and a few other locks that didn't match.

If she guessed correctly, the remaining few were used to open the armor.

Vera's guess was correct. She inserted one of the keys into the keyhole, and the armor tightly wrapped around her chest and abdomen opened.

After finding a way to disassemble, the heavy responsibility fell on August.

This time, he easily removed the armor from Rob's body, but the removal was too large, and lukewarm blood splashed onto the clothes of several people.

The words Vera wanted to praise Augus stuck in her throat, staring at the armor he picked up, speechless.

Augus felt the change in the atmosphere, and asked keenly, "What... what's wrong?"

He still held the disassembled breastplate in his hand, with an expression that he did something wrong and didn't know what he did wrong.Looking at Vera's face hesitantly, he wanted to put down the heavy object in his hand.

"Don't move," Vera said.

August's back straightened all of a sudden, and he held the armor without moving.

Ma Haohao: "..."

She really doesn't want to eat dog food on a horror set...

"Grab the edge of the armor, don't touch any other places, overturn it and put it on the ground." Vera instructed.

Augustus didn't know what was going on, but he did it sternly.

After turning the armor over and putting it on, he saw what was inside, and he immediately understood Vera's intentions.

The inside of this armor is not a smooth plane, but iron spikes as thick as a finger!

These iron spikes were originally inserted into Rob's flesh, but Augustus pulled them out suddenly, and blood splashed out of Rob's chest and abdomen.

August shuddered, and couldn't bear to look at the bloody holes on Rob's chest.

Being pierced in the bone by such an iron thorn, how did he survive until now?

"Rob keeps knocking on the door, does he just want us to rescue him?" Augus said nagging, "If we had found out earlier, he would not have died..."

Yes.

The knight who persistently knocked on the door did not intend to scare them, nor did it mean that there was an invisible secret in the study.

Instead, they are sending a distress signal to them.

Rob hadn't escaped from the castle at all, and the ghost would not let them escape from his grasp.

Vera sat on the ground weakly, staring at Rob's body in a daze.

The past few days in the castle belonged to their game with ghosts.She thought she was extremely smart and would not let ghosts take any chances, but she was severely beaten by reality.

This ghost is too cunning and too scheming. Ta must have absolute confidence in himself to set up such a maze and deliberately play games with them.

The first time it caught Rob, the ghost had enough ability to kill him, but it only cut off Rob's tongue, and even let the "knight" appear in front of their eyes.

What does he want to do?
Are they certain that they will not be able to discover the true identity of the "knight", or are they confident and want to give them a blow?

No matter what his purpose was, this time, in this duel, they lost.

Rob wasn't killed by a ghost.

It was their incompetence and cowardice that deprived Rob of his life every minute and every second, and lost his life to the god of death.

Vera felt defeated.

At this moment, looking at Rob's corpse gave her the illusion that she would never be able to escape the control of the ghost.

"what is this?"

Before she was completely sunk by the shadow of defeat, Ma Haohao's voice broke into Vera's ears, and the vines entangled in her heart were repelled.

Mahao picked up the helmet that fell aside, and a weird part fell out of the helmet, with transparent liquid still sticking to it.

"Vera, do you know what this part is for?" Mahao put the part on the tip of his nose and sniffed it. He smelled a sour smell of saliva. "It smells like saliva all over it."

Vera stood up and took the part from Asami's hand.

Ma Haohao felt that there seemed to be some light in her eyes, like a lost traveler pushing through the fog and overcoming obstacles with the determination to break the boat.

Vera pinched the part in her hand, didn't know what to think of, and stuffed it into her mouth directly.

Both Ma Haohao and Augus were frightened by her actions, and before they could stop them, they heard familiar laughter from Vera.

"laugh……"

"whee……"

The knight's strange laughter actually came from here!
