I went crazy in the holographic world

Chapter 43 Death Castle
A huge mechanical castle appeared out of thin air on the flat ground in front of him. There were many players standing in front of the castle, and some new players would be added from time to time.

clack clack-

Finally, with the sound of gears turning, the entire castle appeared in front of everyone.

There are countless gears of different sizes embedded in the outer wall of the castle. Each gear is working and no one is idle.

There is a clock hanging directly above the castle gate. As the hands turn, the sound of click-click-click is transmitted to the player's eardrums.

Amidst the sound of the clicking gears, the sound of the hands turning was not drowned out, but became more prominent, like everyone's countdown to death.

Inexplicably, everyone's heartstrings suddenly became tense as the pointer turned.

The players who had been quiet for a moment after the mechanical castle appeared began to discuss uneasily again.

Before they got here, they didn't talk to any NPC, and they didn't receive any prompt to trigger the task, so they came here inexplicably.

Everyone was discussing where this place was and how they came here suddenly.

[Hehehe, good evening, everyone, and welcome to the Castle of Death]

While everyone was talking, the door of the castle opened a crack, and a mechanical doll came out of the castle.

The tone was high and naughty, but the voice was a little sharp. Combined with the content it said, it seemed a bit scary in front of this huge castle.

It does not have an iron shell to cover its internal structure, and all its parts are exposed for a clear view.

It can even be seen that some parts are missing from its body, causing some of its movements to be less sensitive, which is in sharp contrast to its fluent speech.

"Death Castle, what does this mean?"

"It won't be that everyone who enters this castle will die."

"What's going on? Can you get out? This place is really weird."

"We're not really going to die here inexplicably."

Not all the players who appear here are adventurous, not to mention that they did not enter here with their own intentions, so some players began to get scared.

"Well, what do you mean by Death Castle? What do you mean by bringing us here? How can we get out?"

"Yes, yes, what on earth is this place?"

Some of the more courageous people began to ask the mechanical doll, and when others saw someone speaking, they all agreed.

Yin Xiyue said nothing and observed the situation.

[Everyone, please be quiet~Don’t disturb the master while he’s sleeping]

After the mechanical doll finished speaking, it tilted its head to one side. Maybe it wanted to appear cute, but combined with the atmosphere of the scene, it wasn't cute at all.

As soon as it finished speaking, the whole audience seemed to be frightened, and no one spoke anymore.

[Hehe, this is right]

The mechanical doll said and walked towards the crowd.

The players moved back as it advanced, as if they were facing some kind of flood beast.

Yin Xiyue also followed the crowd, keeping a certain distance from the mechanical doll.

"That's enough, what do you mean?"

Someone in the crowd couldn't stand this feeling anymore and suddenly shouted like this.

According to their understanding, this mechanical doll should also be a game NPC, but the NPCs they had come into contact with before were all very friendly, and no one would tease them like this.

Moreover, in their understanding, except for the special NPCs who maintain order, the NPCs are to assist them in gaining experience and will not really harm them, so being treated like this suddenly is a bit unbearable.

Some people were so agitated that they immediately joined in and protested.

However, the next scene made their words get stuck in their throats and they could no longer speak.

The hand of the mechanical doll suddenly turned into a knife, and then before anyone had time to react, it reached the person who had just shouted out first and stabbed the knife into his heart without stopping.The moment the man fell to the ground, he disappeared on the spot.

It is difficult for everyone to judge whether he will be teleported back to his original place after dying here, or whether he will be directly judged dead and out of the game. The more pessimistic people even start to wonder whether the person's life in real life will be affected after he is killed by an NPC in the game. .

But no one dared to speak anymore.

None of them realized that this mechanical doll, which seemed to be physically damaged and not very agile, could be so fast.

And you can still find who said it so accurately.

The scene suddenly became quiet, with only the sounds of gears clicking and hands clicking.

[I told you not to make any noise, otherwise the master will be angry, hee hee]

At this moment, everyone only dared to complain in their hearts, who is your master, and what are you doing?

The mechanical doll saw that everyone was indeed quiet and stopped talking before he spoke.

[I am the little butler of the Castle of Death, the master’s most capable assistant]

[Well~ Now that everyone has come to the Death Castle, you just want to come here to play. The master is resting now, so I can only receive you.]

[However, please keep your voice down]

Everyone: No, we don’t want to come and play, we just want to leave.

But they dare not say.

[Let me think about it, what fun games are there?]

The mechanical doll tilted its head to the side as it spoke, and paused for a while, as if it was really thinking about some fun game.

Suddenly its head returned to normal, and when everyone thought it was thinking of something, it said in surprise.

[Oops, I haven’t invited you into the castle yet, I’m really derelict in my duty]

【Everyone, please follow me】

As soon as it finished speaking, the door of the castle behind it slowly opened again, making a creaking sound.

The mechanical doll took the lead and walked in front. When it reached the door, it turned to look at everyone, but no one followed.

[Why don't you follow me? Do you like it?]

It obviously showed no expression, but everyone noticed that it seemed to be really angry.

The hand of the mechanical doll turned into a knife again, and it slowly walked towards the crowd.

[Why don’t you want to go in and play? It’s so fun]

Everyone: No, only you find it fun.

Just as the mechanical doll was getting closer and closer to them, someone started walking towards the mechanical castle.

After someone took the lead, people were no longer so afraid and followed them in.

After all, if you don’t go in, you will die now, if you go in, you will die later, or you may not even die at all.

At first, everyone deliberately slowed down and walked slowly, but then the mechanical doll stood behind them. If they took one step, it would take two steps, forcing the people behind to keep urging the people in front to walk faster, for fear of leaving. If he was too slow, the knife would fall on him.

In this way, everyone was forced to push each other to the ground, and they all entered the Death Castle.

After the mechanical doll was padded, the door creaked shut after it entered the castle.

Yin Xiyue turned her head and looked back. The clock above the castle was a double-sided clock, and the time could also be seen in the castle.

When the castle gate closed, it was exactly twelve o'clock in the evening.
