The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 231: Water damage
...back to reality?
Annan was slightly startled when he saw the last side mission.
What does this refer to?
Is it me in the nightmare...or Evelyn Miller?
"But speaking of this name..."
Evelyn Miller—This is not the first time Annan has heard this name.
This name is included in the code that Benjamin uses to determine whether he is in a nightmare... and it is in the first verse.
Releasing the possibility of having the same name for the time being, Benjamin is very likely to know this Evelyn. Even when I was relatively young, I was deeply impressed by this name...
"...In other words, is it possible that this place was in the past decades ago?"
Annan fell into deep thought.
So, in the original history...how and what did Evelyn Miller do?
He touched his left wrist and used the extremely dim light to explore his left hand, testing the shape and depth of the wound.
After the weakening of Annan's curse, he could no longer detect such slight pain. But Annan could tell the location of his wounds through the difference in touch... After all, blood had flowed down his left arm. Annan could not determine the specific location of his wounds just by sight.
Soon, Annan noticed something.
"This wound..."
Annan's eyes lit up slightly.
——First of all, he can be sure that this is definitely not a scratch caused by rubbing on the rough handcuffs when struggling hard.
This was obviously a cut injury caused by cutting the back of the hand with some kind of sharp instrument.
Judging from the depth of this wound...
Annan reached out and fumbled for the handcuffs.
As expected - on the side of the handcuffs close to the wall, there was a thin blade close to it. It feels a bit like a shaving blade...very thin and a bit soft.
...No wonder.
Annan felt from the beginning that the size of the handcuffs was obviously not right - it was obviously too big, and it was completely unable to tightly cuff Evelin, who had a relatively slender wrist. If you struggle hard, you should be able to pull your hand out of here.
The current discovery tells Annan why he was half-kneeling on the ground when entering the dungeon. Because only in this way can the side with the blade be far enough away from your skin... If you stand up at this time, your wrist will be cut.
Annan groped calmly.
He put his clothes against the blade and moved it, and found that it would retract as soon as he pressed it.
So Annan immediately realized that this blade should be part of a certain mechanism.
"...where is the other end of it?"
Annan thought for a moment, held the handcuffs with his right hand, kept the blade away from the back of his hand, and slowly stood up from the ground.
Feeling some numbness in his legs and feet, Annan ignored it.
He just followed the chain and groped toward the wall.
When he touched the fixed point of the link on the wall, Annan twisted it and found that it was actually movable!
Annan's eyes suddenly lit up.
This is it!
He stretched out his hand to hold on to the fixed point and turned around a few times. Annan immediately discovered that if you turn it counterclockwise, the blade will protrude more; if you turn it clockwise, the blade will retract more.
This is not like a device for imprisoning people... but more like some kind of torture device.
Annan kept the palm of his left hand upward and used gravity to place the blade downward. Then turn the fixed point to the left in circles.
When Annan turned it to the head, the blade had been completely retracted.
Annan did not hesitate to break the thumb of his left hand until it was dislocated, and then took his left hand out.
Then he did not leave, but rotated the fixed point in the opposite direction - because Annan realized that the first requirement in the side mission "keep the body intact" may refer to this.
As expected.
After Annan rotated it to the right for a while, the blade came out again... and after a while, the fixed point began to become a little unstable. Like a screw that is about to be unscrewed.
Annan continued to rotate it - and found that when the blade was halfway out, the fixed point fell off with a clang, and fell to the ground with the chain with the sharp blade at the end.
The handcuffs are still fixed on Annan's hands.
It seems to require a key to open...but that doesn't matter anymore.
The chains have fallen off, this is just a heavy bracelet.
"...that is to say, if I can't get it out violently, do I need to let it cut into the skin of my wrist by nearly one centimeter to remove it?"
Annan frowned slightly.
It always feels like this is not a prison...
Just in case, Annan picked up the heavy chains on the ground.
Annan used Evelin's intact right hand to hold the original fixed point - and the other end of the iron chain was a sharp and slender blade.
It might be used as some kind of weapon...
After all, Annan has already checked her body... There is no silverware on Evelin, and she is not a swordsman or a wizard. Annan cannot use his own skills.
However, if the enemy is just ordinary people...it is still no problem to kill one or two people with this heavy iron chain.
After getting the weapon, Annan first reset his left thumb. The contusion caused by the rough technique made it temporarily unable to hold its fist tightly. But it didn't matter. After all, the left wrist was still injured and I couldn't use it originally.
"...Is Evelin left-handed?"
Such thoughts appeared in Annan's mind, but they were quickly dismissed.
He dragged the chain around the room, but found nothing.
So he could only drag the chain and approach the door.
It was not a solid metal cell door like in a prison - it was an ordinary wooden door.
Of course, the door is locked.
But this does not trouble Annan.
He raised the chain and slammed it on the door lock!
Once, twice...
When Annan hit it for the sixth time, he finally smashed the door lock directly!
Annan kicked open the wooden door without ceremony and walked out.
What appeared in front of him was a corridor leading to the left and right sides.
It was still very dark outside, and there were no lights in the corridor.
Not to mention the green light, Annan couldn't even find a candle.
"Huh?"
A strange exclamation came.
...a girl?
Annan suddenly turned his head in the direction of the sound, his eyes sharp.
That was not far to my left—a dark place behind the corner.
As if the sound of the chain dragging was heard, the girl who made the sound suddenly ran away away from Annan without saying a word.
Annan just squinted his eyes slightly and looked in that direction silently.
If Annan acted according to the way he acted, he should immediately catch up with her at this time, knock her unconscious with a chain, and then drag her back for torture.
But at this time, Annan remembered his second side task: don't talk to anyone.
So he didn't catch up, but just let the footsteps gradually move away from him.
"Running pretty fast..."
Annan murmured.
...Since, you can't talk to anyone.
The safest way for him to move is to move in a direction where no one is around.
So Annan turned to the right without thinking.
This time he did not drag the chain, but held it from the middle with his left hand that had regained some strength. Just like a cowboy preparing to hitch a horse...
But just after Annan picked up the chain, he touched the chain and suddenly realized something.
He paused and squatted down.
He carefully groped the ground with his right hand. ~IndoMTL.com~ Has water damage.
There were also water stains behind Annan's back - this was because Evelin's trousers and shoes were soaked. But the strange thing is that there is no water source in the dungeon that is enough to wet her to the knees...
But this water stain came from in front of Annan.
Annan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked back.
This should be left by the person who just spoke.
In other words...she comes from the same place as me before?
And she should have walked from right to left——
As long as you follow the direction of the water damage, you can find the next clue!
