It was a milky white mermaid wax figure, made of cold wax, with a strange translucent texture, and some half-melted liquid droplets on the face.

Although the wax figure has carved eyes, it does not have black eyeballs. Its entire eyes are pure white, like some dead soulless creature standing at the entrance of the hotel.

"Didn't you notice?" Jeff's voice was getting lower and lower, and a little trembling, "No matter where our car goes, this wax figure is looking directly at our car, her eyes must be moving... ..."

"This...why do I think..." Lucy was obviously relieved, and finally smiled comfortably, "Is it the same as the portrait of "Mona Lisa's Smile"? No matter what angle you look at They all thought that the people in the portrait were looking at themselves.”

"No, this kind of situation where people in the portrait are looking at themselves from any angle can only be produced on a two-dimensional plane, not three-dimensional. That is to say, it is impossible to have such a situation in a wax figure." Bai Liu retorted calmly Lucy, "Jeff is right. The wax figure's eyes are indeed watching us."

It was the same with those townspeople who started staring at them as soon as they came in, as if they were watching prey that entered their hunting grounds.

This thing must be some kind of monster.

As soon as he had this thought, the coin on Bai Liu's chest vibrated abruptly, and a brand new panel popped up. The game panel turned into a thick old medieval book, which was slowly opened in front of Bai Liu.

[Congratulations to the player for discovering the first game monster and unlocking the monster book——"Siren Town" special (1/4)]

A photo appeared on the page of the book. The pale face of the wax figure of the mermaid was soaked in the deep sea water. She only showed half of her face. Her eyes without carved eyes were silently watching Bai Liu, as if she was about to crawl out of the photo.

[Monster name: Mermaid wax figure (chrysalis state)]

[Attack value:? ? ? (Unknown not unlocked, unlocked after battle)]

[Attack method:? ? (not explored)]

【weakness:? ? (not explored)]

Those places with question marks are like wet ink stains and stains, the specific handwriting cannot be seen clearly, and there are explanations in fluorescent fonts floating behind.

Below the weakness is a line of explanatory text:

[Note: By exploring and completing the information of the monster book page, you can get corresponding reward points and special rewards. If you collect all the monster book pages in a copy of the game, you can take away the most precious thing of a certain monster in the copy of the game]

The monster book in "Siren Town" has four pages, and Bai Liu can't turn the pages at the back. It shows that it has not been unlocked, and it should be a monster in another copy of the game.

It's a bit like fighting monsters and getting rewards. The higher the danger level of the monsters, the better [things] you can get in the end.

But looking at the exploration conditions, and even the battle, this is to encourage players to fight monsters to the death...

Bai Liu, a scumbag whose combat power was only as much as a female high school student's schoolbag, touched his chin deeply.

Lucy hugged Bai Liu's hand in a panic: "...is she really moving?!"

"How is it possible?!" Andre seemed to be infected by Bai Liu's eloquent words. A look of fear appeared on his face for a moment, but he was quickly suppressed. He mocked Bai Liu, "Bai Liu, you Coward! If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and make up these reasons to escape, just run! After you go back, you will automatically give up on Lucy, and then kneel down and lick/piss on my leather shoes!"

This should be the content of the bet between Bai Liu and Andre.

The driver moved a bit strangely, but in the end he said with a normal smile: "It's getting late, did you read it wrong? How can there be any moving wax figures? If there were any, our town would have protected them for making them." Sightseeing spots! That can make a lot of money! Our city produces wax, and the mermaid wax figure is just a feature of our town, there are everywhere, nothing special."

"We're here! Get out of the car! Have a good night's rest tonight, and get up and have fun tomorrow morning!" The driver opened the door and sent them off.

Bai Liu glanced back at the wax figure of the mermaid in the fountain. Looking from a distance, the wax figure was still facing them, with its head lowered meekly, staring at the water surface, as if it was not looking at them.

But Bai Liu clearly remembered that when their car just drove in, the front of the mermaid wax figure was not facing the hotel entrance, but the entrance.

There are also two mermaid wax figures on the left and right at the entrance of the hotel, holding a scepter in their hands, with a strange and twisted smile on the corner of their mouths, as if they are pretending to be waiters to welcome them, but their expressions seem to be forced to stand in front of them. here.

After they walked into the hotel, they found that there were large and small wax figures of mermaids everywhere. There was even a full-length mermaid wax figure behind the cash register, holding money in its hand, as if it was cashiering.

As the driver said, the mermaid wax figure seems to be a feature of Siren Town, and it can be seen everywhere, but this is too much, from the mermaid wax figure decoration of the floor lamp to the mermaid carving pen holder at the front desk, it is not only seen everywhere , but are inseparable.

These mermaid wax figures have a common feature - Bai Liu found that no matter where he went in the house, these mermaid wax figures placed in different positions would give him the feeling of looking directly at them.

Moreover, these mermaid wax figures have no eyeballs. Logically speaking, it is difficult for a wax figure without pupils to give people the feeling that it is staring at you, but Bai Liu has this feeling.

Such a large number of densely placed mermaid marble wax figures staring at you is really uncomfortable. Even Andre, who has been yelling and ridiculing Bai Liu as a coward, got goose bumps all over his body after entering, and could not help rubbing his arms. Jeff even shivered and hid behind Andre, as if he was not afraid of Andre hitting him.

Lucy Xiaoniaoyi... Da Niaoyi held Bai Liu's arm in a humane way, with a face as delicate and beautiful as a rose with a pale color, as if she was also frightened by the weird hotel decoration.

And Bai Liu communicated with the front desk calmly: "Hello, my surname is Bai, and I have reserved a room before."

At the front desk was a young man with a complexion as pale as marble. He was wearing a floor-length Scottish skirt. He stuttered as he walked, and seemed to have some mobility issues. When the young man stood still, it was even hard to tell whether he was a wax figure or a real person.

Bai Liu and his party leaned over, and when the man suddenly moved, even Lucy was startled, she thought it was the wax figure moving, covered her face and exclaimed: "Oh, my God! You are as white as It's a wax figure!"

"I'm sorry." The front desk looked at them and said apologetically, "I have albinism, I'm sorry for scaring you! Mr. Bai? You booked four rooms a week ago for a week, and the fee has already been paid. , the room card is here, I wish you the best of luck."

Bai Liu took the room card, and when he heard that he had reserved four rooms, he was actually relieved.

He didn't really want to share a room with Lucy.

Lucy seemed to understand this too. The woman who was frightened just now recovered quickly, and she used a method of [Oh! baby! You are so shy! ] looked at Bai Liu teasingly, but was ignored by Bai Liu without changing his expression.

"I want to ask, why are there so many mermaid wax figures in your hotel?"

The front desk replied in a calm tone: "Sir, the mermaid gave us everything. The town of Siren originally had nothing. Since the body of the mermaid was salvaged, more and more tourists came here. We got money and everything, so We are very grateful to the mermaid. Here, there are many wax figures of mermaids in every household, which are like amulets for us."

Bai Liu pointed to the mermaid wax figure behind the front desk: "Your mermaid wax figures are also very rich, with all kinds. The one behind you looks exactly like you, and its material seems to be different from other wax figures. Too much the same."

In fact, it's no wonder that Lucy can't tell the difference between this person and the wax figure. It's really that the wax figure of the mermaid behind the front desk is exactly the same as the front desk, and even the expression is more vivid than the real person, which can be called a bit hideous.

The eyes of this mermaid wax figure stared straight at the front desk standing in front of it, no matter where the front desk went, it didn’t look away, as if it was about to run out of the wax figure with claws and claws and tear up the front desk that looked exactly like itself. It's so normal, it makes people shudder to see.

The other mermaid wax figures look a little melted, but the material of this mermaid wax figure does look more transparent and new, not as thick and dusty as other mermaid wax figures.

"Yes, sir." The receptionist raised his eyes and looked directly at Bai Liu, "The mermaid wax figure on the back is my amulet. We will make the mermaid wax figure into our shape. When disaster strikes, these mermaid wax figure amulets will be destroyed. The devil mistook us and melted away in our place."

Bai Liu felt a little interesting, this [talisman wax figure] was obviously different from other mermaid wax figures.

[Players gain new knowledge—"Siren Town Monster Book" Mermaid Wax Figure Panel Refresh]

[Monster name: Mermaid wax figure (chrysalis state), amulet wax figure (cocoon state)]

Chrysalis and cocoon? This monster named [Mermaid Wax Figure] also has two different states?

Bai Liu slowly thought about it. The pupa is the state when the adult insect has not yet broken its shell. It breaks out of the cocoon and becomes a butterfly. The cocoon is the state after the adult insect has successfully hatched, or it can be said to be the shell left behind.

Protect your own shell, which is consistent with what the front desk said about the shell against attacks...

It is estimated that this mermaid wax figure has two states of [worm] and [butterfly]. Bai Liu intuitively feels that these two states should be more aggressive than [chrysalis] and [cocoon].

At present, it seems that the mermaid wax figures in [chrysalis] and [cocoon] states have no intention of actively attacking people, but it is also possible that [attack] is in a way that Bai Liu is unaware of, such as mental pollution.

He felt that the wax figures of mermaids all over the hall were staring at the player, which was quite mentally polluted.

Bai Liu distributed the room cards. Lucy lingeringly wanted to sleep in a room with him, but Bai Liu said "I haven't proved my bravery for you, I don't deserve to really have you!" ] The reason was dismissed.
