Chapter 1544: Chapter 1545: The Possibility of the Suitcase
Inside the castle, there were no windows. The high and distant do, the intricately carved decorative patterns, the sense of history in the unlit candlesticks, and the gemstones embedded in the skirting line all made the space feel heavy, and over ti, one couldn’t help but feel a suffocating illusion.
Of course, there was enough air inside the castle, but neither the rooms nor the corridors had any passage leading to the outside world.
The man with the long ponytail was nad Lian Hanshan. Xu Huo and he had encountered several other players while walking together; they were trapped in this castle without ti to escape due to the spatial ray.
A middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties began nagging as soon as she t them, "Had I known it would be like this, I shouldn’t have stayed for the excitent, and people even said they could see Lawrence Lee. In the end, I saw the Suitcase Man, who’s hated by everyone, before seeing him. Great, now I might even lose my life!"
"Why am I so unlucky? Even if I entered the ga a second earlier, it would’ve been better."
"Is it true that Lawrence Lee is still in Zone 017, or is it a trap set by the Suitcase Man to lure players on purpose?"
"Among so many Super Players, he’s the only inhuman one. He must be trying to make
into a puppet. It’s so unlucky, trapped in the instance with nowhere to run. Let’s wait for the Suitcase Man to finish off the people outside and then finish us off..."
...
After discovering that the tickets couldn’t be used to escape, most players were anxious, including Rank-A Players. What the middle-aged woman said was true, but the more it was emphasized, the more uncertain they felt. After all, a completely unreasonable powerhouse is more terrifying than a reasonable one.
"Try saying one more sentence?" a bearded man who looked irritable pointed at her, "Do you believe I’ll make you shut up?"
This remark interrupted the middle-aged woman’s complaints and made most players subconsciously take a few steps back. A young female player, who was under Lian Hanshan’s protective care, observed him and Xu Huo moving slightly toward the middle-aged woman without any communication, curiously asked, "Do you think she’s stronger?"
"Otherwise, how do you think she managed to stay alive until now?" Lian Hanshan replied with a smile, even in such a situation, he enjoyed seeing players fighting for survival.
The young female player glanced at the slightly shabby-looking middle-aged woman and the tall, stout bearded man, stating, "Don’t judge a book by its cover."
"Before evolution, there was a distinct physical strength difference between n and won, but after evolution, this difference can be minimized or even negligible due to props and characteristics," another man carrying a backpack said. "I guess a person’s personality is unlikely to change due to evolution, so for this lady to have progressed to Rank-C, she must possess exceptional qualities."
He then looked at the bearded man, "And this gentleman is also Rank-C, but in terms of evolution rate, he’s not advantageous. Without any help, in a one-on-one confrontation, I think the lady has a higher chance of winning."
It was almost explicitly saying the bearded man would lose.
Seeing everyone staring at him, after a couple of seconds, the bearded man awkwardly shifted his gaze and changed the topic, "It’s better to think about how to get out of this instance instead of talking about these things."
"Why do you all believe this castle is an instance?" the young female player asked in confusion, "We didn’t receive a ga notification after entering. I think it’s more like a container prop, though I’ve never seen such a container prop."
What she said obviously made sense, and this was a normal judgnt, but the issue was that they had entered the suitcase of the Suitcase Man. The Suitcase Man was a Super Player, and would a Super Player keep carrying a piece of container prop around every day?
This reasoning seed counterintuitive yet was particularly persuasive.
Additionally, for players, a container prop is ultimately just a prop with the potential to be destroyed, whereas a dungeon venue is much more challenging.
As for why they didn’t receive a ga notification upon entering, perhaps there were other issues, but it was certainly beyond their understanding.
"So how do we get out?" The young female player frowned, "We’ve been around in such a big circle, but haven’t even found a window."
"And is it really Lawrence Lee who’s fighting against the Suitcase Man? If it’s a Super Player, their fight could last a bit longer, but if not..."
If not, the Suitcase Man might co in soon.
"It was Lawrence Lee," Lian Hanshan said, "I saw him."
The knife hanging at the neck slightly moved away, but this did not solve the fundantal problem. After so deliberation, everyone decided to search separately inside the castle.
"Maybe the Suitcase Man would open the suitcase when next trying to stuff people in." The young female player said whimsically.
"Hoping for that is even more wishful than counting on Lawrence Lee dismantling the suitcase." Backpack man added a remark.
The words were said casually, but in fact, they had run out of options. Before stopping here, they tried various thods to damage the castle, but the harm they could do was minimal. The castle’s outer walls seed to be made of so indestructible material.
Whether it was a container prop or a dungeon venue, the possibility of destroying it from the inside was nearly impossible.
However, during the attempts, Xu Huo thought of another possibility.
If the suitcase of the Suitcase Man really contained an instance, it would undoubtedly be a random instance. Random instances can shuffle with their holders through different wormhole points. Since the instance can move, and the instance needs a physical venue to unfold, could there be a possibility that the random instance is packed into a container prop or a spatial instrunt to achieve portability?
Super Props could also be container props, and there might exist a spatial instrunt that can accommodate an instance.
Whether it’s Super Props or instrunts, similarly having Super Props like "Three Seconds of a Lifeti" might co into play, but this castle is likely wrapped around the instance venue. Even if props or instrunts interfere with each other to the point of failing the optimal solution, the castle wouldn’t disappear. On the contrary, losing its outer shell might make the instance unfold rapidly, at which point not only could there be no escape but his possession of Super Props might be exposed.
However, on the contrary, if this is an instance venue, the instance authorization docunt must be placed in the castle to unfold the instance the mont the suitcase outside disappears, or else the instance couldn’t be launched instantly.
If it can be determined whether the instance authorization docunt is in the castle, it might be worth considering whether to gamble with the Super Props.
But it is a backup plan of last resort, using Super Props under unclear escape opportunities is a highly risky affair.
The Girl in the painting inside the clothes moved again.
Xu Huo said to the three people traveling with him, "I’m going to the bathroom."
"Just as well, we can have sothing to eat," Lian Hanshan understood, suggesting taking a rest in a small hall not far from the bathroom.
