Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 17 The Land of Sin
"It's okay, I just feel a little tired all of a sudden."

Chu Ming supported his head, with a bit of apology in his tone.

"Is that so?" The old man smiled kindly, and said to the woman behind him, "Arrange a room for the two guests and let them have a good rest."

Chu Ming shook his head and refused.

"No, we've already booked a room in a hotel outside, so don't bother you."

Ge Hai on the side looked at Chu Ming with some doubts, and muttered inwardly.

"Really? Why don't I know?"

Upon hearing this, Grote excitedly stepped forward and patted Chu Ming on the shoulder.

"Ahem, Andrew, your father entrusted you to my care, how could I let you live in those dirty hotels."

"Just listen to me, I have ordered the chef to prepare a sumptuous dinner for you."

Chu Ming looked at Grote as an elder who cared about the younger generation, and he didn't insist anymore.

"Then listen to Mr. Grote, and I will trouble you tonight."

"How can it be troublesome?"

Grote chuckled and asked the maid before to lead them to the room.

The three of them walked along the corridor. Along the way, the whole house was empty, and apart from the three of them, it was difficult to see any figure.

On the way, Chu Ming stared at the maid in front of him, and suddenly asked, "Miss maid, what is your name?"

The maid paused, turned around and bowed her head, "Dear Mr. Andrew, my name is Nina."

"How long have you been working here?"

The maid Nina was taken aback, and replied truthfully, "It's been half a year."

"Did you come here alone?"

"No." She shook her head gently, "I also have a younger sister."

"But she was not very obedient, so she was locked up by the master."

"is it?"

Chu Ming stroked his chin, but did not continue the chat.

Ge Hai glanced at Chu Ming, and then at the maid in front of him. Seeing that neither of them spoke, he dared not speak.

Along the way, it was extremely quiet, until the destination was reached, the maid Nina opened the door and broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Gentlemen, please come in."

"It's troublesome."

Chu Ming took the key from the maid and entered one of the rooms.

In the room, the decoration is luxurious, and there is a big bed in sight. The environment is indeed much better than that of a hotel.

With the help of the maid, Chu Ming packed up his things and officially moved in.

"Mr. Andrew, if you need anything, you can call Nina at any time, but I have to leave now for a while."

After the maid finished speaking, a look of hesitation flashed across her face, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it after all.

Chu Ming nodded, looked at the back of the maid leaving, and suddenly asked, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

The maid stopped and stood there for a few seconds.

"No, sir."

After speaking, the maid left in a hurry.

Ge Hai poked his head out of the room, and said with a smile, "Master, have you taken a fancy to his little maid?"

Chu Ming patted his head and said angrily, "Don't sleep too hard tonight."

"Huh? Oh, okay."

Although Ge Hai was not very clever, he could hear the defensiveness in the young man's tone.

As night fell, after eating and drinking, the two returned to their respective rooms and prepared to rest.

After taking a bath, Chu Ming put on his armor and prepared to explore this "troll manor" at night.

That's right, the Groat he saw during the day had already fallen into darkness and become a dark troll.

He and Grote are only maintaining superficial politeness now. Once the old man knows that his identity has been exposed, he will definitely not let him go.

Or it should be said that the old man probably didn't want to let him go from the very beginning.

Equipped with the Black Snake Long Sword, Chu Ming was about to go out when there was a knock on the door outside.

Chu Ming was taken aback, opened the door, looked around, only saw a corner of the white dress disappearing at the corner of the corridor.

When he looked back, he found a note on the ground that read:

"The devil is not here, run away!!"

With a serious face, Chu Ming knocked on Ge Hai's door.

After a while, Ge Hai, who was wearing knight armor and looked alert, came out.

With his appearance, it seemed that he took what Chu Baitian said in his heart.

"Go, come with me."

The man didn't ask, but followed closely behind Chu Ming, always on guard.

Chu Ming brought his sensory perception to the extreme, and groped forward along the direction where the footsteps disappeared.

After a while, the two walked out of the mansion and went outside.

It's just that they searched outside for a while, but there was no sign of the girl.

Just when he was about to give up, a burst of noise suddenly came from a distance. He heard men cursing, women crying and screaming.

"This way."

Chu Ming frowned, walked through the garden, and came to a cellar.

Vaguely, he seemed to smell a bloody smell.

He stepped closer to the wooden door and heard Groat cursing from inside.

"Bitch! Why did you betray me?!"

"what!"

A scream came out, and Chu Ming clearly heard that it was Nina's voice.

His face was as heavy as water, and after exchanging glances with Ge Hai, he kicked open the locked wooden door and rushed in.

As soon as he entered the cellar, a strong smell of blood came to his nostrils.

Grote was covered in blood, holding a thorn whip and a butcher knife, and his face was particularly ferocious.

In front of him, two bloody figures hugged each other tightly. There was not a single intact part on their bodies, and the white dress was also stained blood red.

The breath of the two is already very weak.

And behind them, deep in the cellar.

Chu Ming looked, his pupils trembled, and he saw a hellish picture.

In the dim candlelight, countless pieces of blood-red flesh and stumps hung upside down on the blood-stained iron hooks, and the shadows of flesh and blood twisted and swayed on the wall like reptiles.

Blood dripped slowly, the ground was covered with a layer of black slurry, and maggots crawled all over the ground.

The young man's face changed drastically, and suddenly a foul smell hit his nose, lingering and lingering.

The whole cellar is like a slaughterhouse from hell!

eat human? !
"Groot!"

Chu Ming couldn't restrain his anger, and before he could speak, he grabbed his throat and threw him to the ground.

Only the sound of bones breaking came from Grote's body, black blood seeped out, and the floor could not withstand the huge force and directly cracked.

"Listen...listen to my explanation..."

Grote's eyes were full of fear, and he struggled feebly.

"Say!"

Chu Ming roared loudly.

"I... I was forced, if I don't provide them with flesh and blood, I will die!"

After calming down a bit, Chu Ming asked sharply, "Who are they?"

Grote struggled, but when he saw Chu Ming's wild beast-like eyes, he was flustered, and he directly revealed all the people behind the scenes.

"The nobles of the royal capital..."

Click!

As soon as Grote finished speaking, Chu Ming directly twisted his neck.

"Master, she's dying soon."

At this time, Ge Hai's anxious voice came from the side.

Chu Ming's chest was heaving violently, panting heavily, he came to Ge Hai's side, and hugged the bloody two people.

"Don't worry, I'll take you to the doctor now."

"No..." Nina raised her bloody face and grabbed Chu Ming's arm with all her strength, "I can't do it...Mr. Andrew, please...help my sister."

Chu Ming glanced at the girl in Nina's arms, and shook his head with a heavy heart.

"I'll take you to the doctor."

"Save my sister, thank you..."

Nina's palms gradually weakened, she let go of Chu Ming's arm, and closed her eyes forever.

Chu Ming's eyes were red and he sighed.

He can't save anyone.

The girl in the arms of the maid Nina had already lost her breath of life, but she didn't know it.

"Master..."

Ge Hai gripped the long sword tightly, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

"Come with me and burn this sinful place."

Chu Ming carried the girl's body out, and together with Ge Hai set fire to the whole manor.

In the morning, the sky is slightly bright.

coast.

After burying the body in a nearby hill, Chu Ming inserted a stone tablet.

The sea breeze blew, and he sat on the beach for a long time.

Looking at the vigorous rising sun in Dongsheng, the young man let out a breath slowly.

"Ge Hai, let's go."

Ge Hai froze for a moment, "Where are you going?"

"Go to the capital."
