In Wen Xishu's previous life, many people loved the British style. This city was undoubtedly British in style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now it's daytime, and the Crystal City during the day… is surprisingly so dilapidated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clock tower's hands are frozen in place. At the center of the square, the dried-up fountain's basin holds a few withered leaves, edges curled. The entire city looks like a massive, intricate etching, with cold, hard lines and heavy shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu didn't like such a spooky place, but he had no way out. As he suspected, until the \"Savior\" was killed, that door seemed unlikely to appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's going on? This is clearly a… dead city? Looks like it hasn't been inhabited for a long time,\" Cannon was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Night Demon said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's daytime now. Maybe that saying is right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canon asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What saying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he asked, he bit his own blood, seemingly preparing some sort of spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night Demon looked around,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are like me. No… I'm slightly better; I can move during the day, light doesn't weaken me, and night strengthens me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the blood clan is different; the blood clan seems… the light weakens them, and they only move at night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night Demon looked to the sky,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are three hours and fifty minutes until nightfall.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cynical Cosmos Daisy remarked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This place looks like it has truly encountered the apocalypse. If the blood clan really abandoned the day… then is this plan truly considered saving humanity?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, there's nothing to do right now. It seems that there's no living person in this city; why don't we check out these houses?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu pointed to a very luxurious, yet eerily old house, one that could probably be used to shoot detective films if refurbished, like the house of the detective on Baker Street 221B.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the group went to this house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door was locked, but for the assassins, it wasn't an obstacle; Canon soon picked it:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know, I'm passionate about the arts, even lockpicking is an art.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canon pushed the door open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air was as stagnant as ancient grave soil, carrying a scent mixed with dried roses, old book pages, and some indescribable faint mustiness resembling a damp cold stone cavity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canon felt like he was entering a tomb infused with air freshener.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall floor was thickly covered in dust. A dressing mirror stood nearby, but it was blurred beyond recognition…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dust made the reflection of Wen Xishu and others in the mirror appear very distorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light in the house was very dim; it was only because Canon opened the door that some light managed to come in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Canon was about to close the door, Night Demon suddenly said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! Don't close the door.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canon halted. The door didn't completely close, leaving a slit open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light through the slit looked like a serpent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the door was almost closed, the entrance to the living room looked like a gaping black hole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sunlight penetrating the hall had exhausted its strength, unable to reach the depths of the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canon intended to open the door, but this door… suddenly seemed to have a will of its own, or pushed by some eerie force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the whole door slammed shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absolute darkness spread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Canon tried to open the door, only to find he didn't touch the doorknob but something extremely cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The texture felt like tree bark but also like human skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night Demon seemed to have sensed something and shouted,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Canon! Be careful! It's right in front of you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was startled; they couldn't feel any presence at all and didn't know what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gulp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of blood being consumed came, and the terror in the darkness bit Canon's neck in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>",669,"2026-06-03T11:12:56.706Z","2026-06-03T11:13:00.406Z",1,"novelbin.me","781605fd402172f77b58eebf97e554fe250e7e5316756d13bbeeaa84e78e6730","three-towers-game-chapter-914","three-towers-game-chapter-912",1179,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-towers-game-cover.jpg"]
