Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 301 Clues of the Mad Mage

Roy and the other three returned to the ground. They buried the three companions on the spot. They only brought some food, water, and proceeds from the tomb robbery. All the equipment was left here and they returned overnight.

After walking for more than an hour, they came to the place where the carriage was parked before.

The two coachmen were also killed by the enemy. Fortunately, the enemy had not killed the horse and drove the carriage away.

So a mercenary team member drove, and the group continued to walk back.

You need two carriages when you come, and one carriage can fit you on the return journey.

It was only after the carriage left the mountain that Oston returned the "teleporting stone statue" to Hobert. After arriving on the plain, there were villages everywhere on both sides of the road, and it was unlikely that the enemy would launch another surprise attack here.

Then Auston placed the proceeds in the carriage, and said to Hobert, "Thanks to you, we can take all these things away, and you can choose a few more trophies."

Hobert nodded, and chose a pair of red eyes obtained from the stone statue, and the characteristics of the shadow of the human skin, as well as the book in the sarcophagus of the tomb owner.

Hobert suspects that this pair of eyeballs should be the core crystallization of the six-winged gargoyle, so the first two are extraordinary materials that can be traded with the "world" in the Tarot Club.

And that book can be brought into the coffin by the owner of the tomb, there may be more important content or research results. Generally speaking, Extraordinary people of the "Seer" path are half-scholars, and this will be very valuable Extraordinary information.

As for the five Extraordinary characteristics, Hobert took a look and they are basically Sequence 9 and Sequence 8. Maybe the sum of them is not worth as much as the core crystal of the six-winged gargoyle.

After Hobert elected first, Auston made the distribution again. He divided the proceeds into seven shares, three of which would be sold to the relatives of the deceased after being sold into gold pounds.

Auston asked again: "Mr. Hobert, if we need your help in the future, where can we find you?"

Hobert gave the address of the law firm.

After everyone relaxed, they began to feel drowsy. After arranging the sequence of guarding and driving, Oston closed his eyes and took a rest. Soon, the car heard the sound of snoring.

Hobert didn't sleep, he observed Auston and Pete, and went into the tomb with him, and the three people who opened the sarcophagus of the owner of the tomb, in their sleep, they had no suicidal tendencies, nor did they suffer any harm in their dreams Performance.

This made Hobert wonder, could the curse of the owner of the tomb end with Lina?

In that case, Lina is really unlucky.

Looking out the car window, Hobert gradually heard the crowing of a rooster, gradually saw smoke rising from a farmhouse, gradually dawned, and some farmers began to work in the fields.

The horses had been pulling carts day and night, and they were already very tired, so everyone spent the whole night, but they couldn't return to Backlund.

When the outside of the carriage began to brighten, Hobert found that the scene outside was somewhat familiar.

At this moment, Alston knocked on the carriage: "Is this the way back to Backlund?"

Pete, who was driving at this time, said, "Boss, I went the wrong way, but I just saw the road sign, and I can go back to Backlund here."

Hobert saw an abandoned villa on the side of the road: "I'll get off here."

Auston was taken aback for a moment, then knocked on the carriage again to make Pete stop.

Hobert carried the oil painting covered with black cloth on his back, and got out of the car with his belongings.

On the corner of the road, inject spirituality into the necklace you just got.

This necklace has some of the abilities of the "faceless man": it can change into another person's appearance, use a "paper doll stand-in", perform divination, and create simple illusions.

Hobert is not too clear about the specific negative effects, but through spiritual experience, the negative effects are not too serious.

Using the ability of the necklace, he turned into Pete's appearance and came to the abandoned villa he saw just now.

This is exactly the villa of the Henry family. It was a case that Hobert received in Sequence 9. In this case, he got the "Teleportation Stone Statue" and established a cooperative relationship with the Nighthawks team.

Now this ownerless villa has become a little dilapidated, the cordon pulled by the police is still there, but the door frame of the villa is still empty, and the room is full of desolation.

It is estimated that this villa will always be abandoned. After all, it is unlikely that anyone will buy it after death.

At this time, Hobert's spirituality sensed that a person came out of the villa behind.

He still remembered that the owner of that villa was Mr. Polly.

Sure enough, Mr. Polly's voice sounded behind him: "Young man, are you also looking for the owner of this villa?"

Hobert was taken aback, "Really"?
He turned his head and smiled slightly: "Hello, old man, yes, I am a distant relative of their family. I haven't contacted them for a long time. I happened to pass by here, so let's take a look. Have they moved away?"

Polly sighed: "They're all dead."

Then Mr. Polly began to talk about the process of discovering the bodies of Henry's family, probably because of the signing of a non-disclosure agreement. Mr. Polly only talked about the general process, but did not mention some details that sounded like ghost stories.

Seeing that the timing was about right, Hobert asked, "Has anyone else come to see them?"

"Yes, some time ago someone came to the Henry family and asked me about their situation."

Hobert immediately thought: Could it be someone from the Solomon family?

He asked: "What does it look like? How old is it? I might know him too."

"It looks like he is not young, his hair and beard are gray, as if he has been traveling, but his body looks very healthy, and he walks as fast as the wind."

Hobert was thoughtful, and then he took out the pen and paper he carried with him: "Does it look like this?"

He began to draw on paper the "Frenzy Mage" who once took away a "Tree of Order" in Tingen City.

In this era when photographic technology was not yet popular, art was a compulsory course in universities and grammar schools, and almost everyone who had studied for a few years could draw a few strokes at will.

The same is true for Hobert. Without the help of rituals, although the portraits he drew have no sense of art and no sense of reality like photos, they still portray the vicissitudes and dusty feelings of the "Frenzied Mage". out.

Before the painting was finished, Polly said, "That's right, that's the old man. You really know him."

Hobert smiled: "Yes, I know him, did he say anything when he left?"

Polly took out his pipe, and thought about it while loading the tobacco leaves: "I said some strange things, such as what family, and said that he felt some incongruity, and the root of the incoordination came from Backlund, etc. .”

Hobert nodded: "Thank you for the information you provided."

He planned to stay at home and office these few days, and not go out and run around if he had nothing to do, so as not to be found by a "crazy mage" as the "root of incoordination".
