Chapter 186: Ralph Manor
Since the other party stopped attacking and came out of the darkness, Thor also relaxed a little on the surface, "Who are you? Are you the official wizard here?" "Ahem!" The white-haired old
man He coughed twice in embarrassment, "How is that possible? I'm only at level three... My name is Krone, a wandering wizard. This is my apprentice, Swann, who has just been at level one." Level three
? That is a third-level apprentice, not a third-level official wizard.
But what the other party said next was a wandering wizard. Although this title could also refer to all wizards and wizard apprentices, Thor always felt that the other party was deliberately blurring his identity.
At this time, Swann, the boy who was injured by Thor with a small stone, limped up to the old wizard apprentice and was staring at Thor with an annoyed look on his face.
This boy looked to be only eleven or twelve years old, slightly younger than Thor.
The other party's calf pants had holes in them and there was a scratch on his skin.
Thor smiled slightly at Swann, "Sorry, I'm a timid person. If someone is watching me secretly, I will attack first." Swann stared and
was about to speak, but was stopped by his teacher.
"Swan is only level one, you don't need to apologize to him. If you spy on a senior wizard, you would be showing mercy to him if you don't kill him." As soon as these words came out, the
expression on Swann's face suddenly felt aggrieved.
The atmosphere finally eased, and the young third-level apprentice Crown pointed to the manor not far away.
"Are you here to try your luck too?"
"To try your luck?" Sol asked.
"Ralph Manor." Crown pointed to the windswept manor behind him. "A wealthy businessman from out of town was once tricked into buying this manor. But he didn't know that a long-standing wizard family once lived here."
" The wealthy businessman went out to do business, and his family and all his servants disappeared overnight. And this manor became the most terrifying legend in the town of Samp."
"Ordinary people are indeed courting death when they move into a wizard's residence. But it's impossible for him not to inquire before buying this house... It seems that someone deliberately concealed the truth." Thor pondered for a moment and said slowly.
Crown's eyes lit up, "I thought so too. In the past two years, the wealthy businessman spent a lot of money to let adventurers enter the manor and help him transport the property hidden inside. But after those people entered the manor, none of them survived. Come out. Half a month ago, he even persuaded a noble here to send a team of knights to enter..."
Thor suddenly interrupted the other party, "The rich businessman has been looking for people to enter the manor in the past two years? He can't think of it for so many years. Don’t you know that this was once the residence of a wizard?”
Crown shrugged, “Of course he knew, but the things in the manor were too important to him, so he hired people while making money, and in the end no one wanted to take the risk. I found more powerful knights. But those knights never came out after they went in."
Thor narrowed his eyes, feeling something was wrong.
A wealthy businessman, no matter how rich he is, can't afford to be so wasteful, right?
And what could be there in the manor that made him persist for two years without giving up?
Thor raised his eyes and looked at the smiling Kroang and the unhappy boy Swann, "Are you also invited by a wealthy businessman?"
Swann muttered: "How can it be possible for an ordinary person with at least a little money? Can you please ask the teacher?"
But Krone said: "It's considered cooperation. He told me what happened in the past two years and the layout of the manor, and I helped him bring something out of the manor." "You tell me these..."
Suo You frowned.
"You...are the apprentice of the Wizard Tower, right?" Kroang laughed and called out Thor's identity.
Upon hearing this, Swann looked at his teacher in disbelief, and then glanced at Thor in fear, his face no longer showing dissatisfaction.
Saul neither admitted nor denied.
Seeing that Thor didn't speak, Crown didn't ask further.
"I guess you've guessed it, I want to invite you to cooperate and enter the manor together."
"Dakxi, oh, even the rich businessman who took advantage of him has found many powerful people to enter the manor in the past two years, and there are even first-level apprentices inside. But these people were trapped in the manor and could not come out. Not only that, even the manor Residents living outside have also been affected."
"I analyzed the strange phenomena contained here. After two years of fermentation, it has become more dangerous. This also means that the destroyed Bloodthorn family must still be related to witchcraft. "The most important thing
is the secrets hidden in this manor. However, the ruined Bloodthorn family also gave birth to official wizards. There must be unpredictable dangers hidden in the manor. So I suggest everyone work together, It's safer."
After listening to Crown's introduction, Thor turned back to observe the scene in the manor through the broken wall.
The entire manor was shrouded in deep dark clouds, and even the wind here seemed stronger than outside.
Suddenly Thor thought he heard something. He raised his ears and waited for a while, but he could only feel the howling wind.
Crown was still waiting for his answer.
"We can cooperate, but I suggest we enter the manor separately first. This place is not small. If we all act together, the efficiency will be very low."
Crown frowned. If we don't act together, what is cooperation?
Sol smiled and said: "You can see the tallest building in this manor through the wall, which should be the castle where the owner of the manor lives. Normally, the most important things in the manor are placed there. But just in case, it is also necessary to Explore the surroundings. We enter from different places and explore the surrounding areas. If we feel it is dangerous, we don’t have to go deep. After an hour, we will meet in front of the castle gate, share information, and then decide whether to enter the main building directly or go to other places to check. "
Thor suggested checking the surroundings, not just on a whim. Through the wall, he vaguely felt that the layout of the manor seemed to contain the rules of some kind of witchcraft circle, but it was just that the time had passed and the damage was serious, so he couldn't analyze it for the moment.
Out of caution, he wanted to figure out the layout of the entire manor first. If you can analyze the characteristics and rules of this magic circle, you may be able to unearth the secrets of the manor without having to search hard.
Seeing that Sol had taken the initiative in speaking, the little boy Si Siwan looked at his teacher nervously.
This time, Krona didn't hesitate long before agreeing to Thor's proposal.
"Okay, although according to the information I got, the wealth of this manor is in the castle, but what you said makes sense. The wizard can't just focus on the danger in front of him, it is also important to analyze the surrounding situation. Then..." "We are
now Just take action?"
"Now?" Kroang was a little surprised.
While the two were talking, Thor heard something again, but when he listened carefully, the sound disappeared again.
Thor checked his status. His magic power fluctuated steadily, his mental body was also stable, and the diary was still pretending to be asleep.
The voice just now was probably not an auditory hallucination.
This made Saul more curious and wary of Ralph Manor.
"Since you have decided to go in, of course you have to act now. Do you still have to wait for someone?"
