If there is no such place, it is difficult for ordinary people to believe that there really is a huge ancient mansion in this dense forest - although this ancient mansion has been completely abandoned and turned into a pile of ruins in more than 200 years, but from its remaining structure, Hao Ren can still see its glory and magnificence back then.Cultivating such a thing in the forest, the rich man's idea is really incomprehensible.The ruins of the remnants of the old house are located on a hill less than five kilometers northeast of the village, and the distance to the village is surprisingly close, it is a large mansion with a main house and two outbuildings, but for various reasons, both outbuildings have completely collapsed, and the main house is only structurally intact on the east side, but surprisingly there is a tall tower behind the main house, which is even better preserved than the main house, and even looks quite solid - from the normal architectural structure, It was difficult to understand why such a tower was built in the family house, and it was built stronger than the main house, which made Hao Ren subconsciously take a few more glances at the tower.The mansion itself is built on a hill, and the tower is the tallest building in the area, so if there are no trees around the village, you may be able to look down on the whole village from the top of the tower."
No matter how glorious it was back then, it will end up in ruins," Vivien shook her head and sighed as she looked at the remains of the buildings that had been completely overrun by vines and shrubs, "I just don't know if any clues can be found here." ”Hao Ren took out the data terminal: "Scan it, is there a distortion of time and space similar to the village around here?"
”The data terminal flew over the ruins of the building, scanning the two outbuildings on either side of the main house with a beam, and then examined the main house and the tower behind it: "Faint fluctuations in magical energy can be detected, but no space-time distortion has been detected.After two hundred years of escape, there is too little energy left. ”Hao Ren took out the Divine Sword from his personal space, and the latter's noisy voice immediately sounded in his mind: "Ah, this sword has reappeared again, but to be honest, I don't really expect this, every time I am picked up, it is only used to kill and destroy, why should I be born as a weapon?"
Sword bearer, can you realize that this world is not only about killing......"
Hao Ren swung his long sword to cut off the vines and weeds in front of him: "Shut up, I'll use you to cut grass." ”"Oh."
The murderous soldiers who once killed the gods are now weeding, and if the gods killers know about it, they don't know what it would be like to cry, but Hao Ren's only emotion about this is that this thing is quite easy to use when cutting things - soon he carved a way through the vines and bushes that had been years old and came to the abandoned old mansion.There is nothing left of the completely collapsed part of the building, and two hundred years of decay and weathering can turn all the fine decoration and high-end furniture into forest fertilizer, and only a few fragments of fine porcelain and metal ornaments can be seen between the broken bricks and tiles.There should be nothing to pay attention to in the outbuildings on both sides, but Hao Ren still released two autonomic machines from his personal space and asked them to check for possible magic items or hidden mechanisms, while he himself came to the front of the relatively well-preserved main house.The walls on the west side of the main house had completely collapsed, and it was possible to see the crumbling stairs and the wreckage of the floor hanging in the air - Hao Ren wondered how these things had been held up for two centuries in the wind and sun, and if it weren't for the extraordinarily expensive and sturdy materials used by the owner to build the house, only the power of magic could explain it.An ethereal and vague voice suddenly came from somewhere: "Go back......
You don't belong to this place......"
The voice seemed to come from the abyss, with a hollow echo and a goosebump-inducing chill, Hao Ren instantly retracted his leg that was about to step forward: "Did you hear anything?!"
”"No," Lily shook her head, poking her head into the still collapsed part of the main house, "Landlord, you're nervous."
Anyway, it doesn't look solid in here, will it collapse if we move too much?
”"I heard someone speak just now," Hao Ren frowned, "and the voice seems to be coming from underground." ”"It's probably undead or something," Vivien waved her hand nonchalantly, "It's normal for an undead to pop up in such a hellish place." ”Hao Ren was stunned, and suddenly realized that if he came to this kind of haunted house with Vivian to explore, he didn't expect to be able to develop according to the normal painting style, what kind of eerie and terrifying indescribable thing is a fart in front of this 10,000-year-old vampire ancestor - she has seen a lot of old people, don't you say come to see a haunted house, even if a hundred ghosts come to the night, she will probably watch it as a life film......
So this style of painting can't adapt to the atmosphere at all!
And just when Hao Ren sighed for a while, the ethereal and cold voice came from the ground again: "Get out of here and go back to where you should go......
The secrets ahead are not the realm that the living should be in......"
"I heard it this time, too," Hesperius nodded, "It seems that it is indeed an undead, and it is still a woman." ”Hao Ren shook his head, since the undead were reluctant to show up, he didn't plan to ignore the other party's chattering warnings, and after calming down, he stepped directly across the broken porch and came to the inside of the ancient mansion.Speaking of the interior, in fact, half of the exterior walls of the mansion have collapsed, and the exterior walls that are wide open and full of holes do not give people the feeling of walking indoors."
It looks like there was a fire here," Vivien said, observing the shards of the wooden porch and the blackened marks on the walls, "that Pierre's investigation was still quite accurate. ”The ruins of the dilapidated mansion are crumbling, even if they just walk on the loose and rotten floor, they give people the illusion that they will fall at any time, but according to the detection of the data terminal, the remaining structure of the house is actually surprisingly strong, at least there is no risk of collapse in a short period of time, so Hao Ren walked towards the depths of the ruins while inspecting the fragments of artifacts scattered around, and a crooked corridor appeared in front of him.This corridor was supposed to be the central axis of the house, but now a third of it is exposed, and the ornate curtain that once hung from the corridor is now charred and blackened, and the fragments that have not yet been fully weathered are scattered on the ground, and Hao Ren's vision is attracted by a wooden board covered with debris, which looks as if it was once a picture frame, but the portrait on it has long since been weathered."
It's too late to turn back," the voice said again, "your curiosity, too bold intruder, your curiosity will lead to trouble......
A forbidden secret is buried here, and this secret has come too close to the evil forces on the other side of the 'border', and you will stumble and fall into the abyss......
Go back, while you're still standing outside the border......"
Hao Ren didn't pay attention to the god's chattering voice, but bent down and picked up the photo frame: "Terminal, restore it." ”The data terminal floats over and scans the image with a beam of light, extracting and reassembling the remaining chemical traces, and with the support of powerful computing power, it is able to cope with the near-impossible restoration work."
What do you want?"
The undead voice continued, "Treasure?
Already gone with the wind, knowledge?
Already burned, money?
There is nothing here......
You can only find death and curse here......"
"Let's take a break, if you don't want to come out and explain the situation to us, just watch quietly from the side," Hao Ren stomped his feet and spoke to the mysterious voice with a big grin, "If you really want to help, just come out and let's talk face to face, we can't communicate with you like this." ”The mysterious voice was silent for a moment, and sure enough, it responded: "Are you fearless?"
There have been many intruders here, but ordinary intruders should have fled in confusion at this moment......""
Nonsense, I have witnessed the life and death of tens of billions of people, recorded the rise and fall of entire civilizations, and ended the fate of the stars!
”Hao Ren hugged his arms, "I don't want to destroy the environment, otherwise I will have a lot of enmity, you know?"
”The mysterious voice was completely silent, probably she had never seen such a blow, and she didn't know how to answer.At this time, the data terminal floated over: "The image is not very clear, but it is enough to distinguish." ”As he spoke, it turned on the holographic projection and presented the restoration result.An aristocratic lady dressed in a gorgeous dress more than two centuries ago appears in the projection, standing there dignified and graceful, her hands folded on her abdomen, her pale blonde curls casually draped behind her, looking graceful and luxurious.The mysterious voice rang out again: "Ah, I was so beautiful when I was alive. ”Hao Ren: "......
Are you annoyed?
”"Oh, I couldn't hold back just now."
Hao Ren: "......"
