0251 Old House
Unlike the rich and prosperous East Coast, which is very popular.
The West Coast is in a state of vast land and sparsely populated, which starts with the promulgation of the bill by William of the "Western Conqueror" that he announced that everyone who took the initiative to go to the west to reclaim land would obtain twenty acres of land free of charge after three years of farming.
Since then, even without a route to the Old Continent, the West Coast has gradually developed.
Of course, it is mainly based on breeding and animal husbandry.
The result of this is the unique cultural style of the West Coast. Every household is far apart. Usually, they go to the church in the town to pray every other week and buy enough daily necessities.
Moreover, every household has a hunting rifle in place, and is alert to any creature entering the territory.
Whether it is a bear, a wolf, or a stranger!
Once you cross the cordon, according to the customs of the West, you always have to "fire the gun first and then ask questions".
This day.
On the platform of the open-air steam locomotive in Huanuo Town, Sulu, wearing a brown coat and a round hat, walked down with a suitcase.
He used his original appearance at this time, so he ran away for a while and drove a steam train, creating the illusion of just returning from another place.
"Sir, where can I go?"
Sulu stopped a carriage and got into the carriage. The coachman's question came from the front.
He reported an address, which was where Rhodes later lived with Tonks.
"It turned out to be the Portley family's mansion."
The coachman smiled and waved the whip.
This is not good for a small place. The relationship circle is small, and they are basically all acquaintances or have heard of some things.
Sulu could only sigh that the Portley family's new home was not too far away. Otherwise, if the carriage was unwilling to go, he would have to wait in the town to see if there were any enthusiastic neighbors who drove the ox carriage and carriage to transport grass.
"Yes, I haven't been back here for years."
Sulu's voice couldn't help but feel a little emotional, as if true feelings were revealed.
"I remember... You are Rhodes' younger brother who got into college, right?"
The cheerful laughter of the coachman came.
"Yes……"
Sulu pulled her collar and felt a little uncomfortable.
This is the Westerner, enthusiastic and direct, which makes him a little uncomfortable when he is used to the etiquette of the Eastern Region.
"Then you may be disappointed... That kid Rhode has also been out for a long time, well... I still remember the last time I met him in a bar, it was a year ago... I have to say that he had a fierce fight and was the dream lover of many girls..."
The coachman boasted.
‘Rod…the lover in the dream?’
Thinking of the other person's strong body as strong as a bear, Sulu wanted to laugh, but then he thought, it seemed that girls in the West like Rhode's tough style.
On the contrary, a weak student like me has basically no market.
During the chat, the carriage had arrived in front of a wooden house.
It covers a wide area and has three floors. It is surrounded by wooden fences in front of it, as well as a horse shed and a warehouse.
But at this time, it seems that it has been wasted for some time.
"It's here."
Sulu paid the fare, got off the carriage, and took a deep breath of the slightly cold air.
‘There is no excitement at all… It seems like a strange place, not even touching memory… It’s also, after that fire, Sulu went out to study…’
He took a deep breath and watched the carriage leave.
The coachman is most likely an informant of the town's mount police officer, and at least he will spread the news of his arrival.
However, Sulu Portley is an official graduate of St. George's University and a researcher hired by Green Tree Fort, and there is nothing shameful about it.
Instead, Sulu hoped that Rhodes would get the news as soon as possible and rushed over to get the information he left in his cipher text.
Squeak!
He pushed open the wooden fence and came to the door of the villa.
Although he didn't have a key, he opened the door after holding it in his hand.
A decadent smell mixed with dust immediately came to my face.
"It seems that Rhodes have never come back to clean it, but fortunately I am not going to live..."
Sulu waved his hand and walked into the house.
Of course he couldn't live here!
After all, although Sulu Portley has nothing to do with a series of events such as the "Black Knight", the Dream of the Ancient Gods in Nia City, and the latest Demon Curse in Rory City, there is another person who will definitely remember him, that is Beatris Taylor, the Saint of the Black Death Club!
The power of the Black Death Society is even larger on the west coast of the Federation.
It is entirely possible to obtain his whereabouts with the official.
"Although I'm not afraid of fourth-level professionals now, it will be very troublesome if I'm besieged... And after the last 'lecture', Beatres will definitely not come to deal with me alone this time."
Sulu came to the living room and saw the black bear head made of nitrogen on the wall, as well as tables, chairs, cabinets and other furniture arranged casually, all covered with white cloth.
He didn't care about this and just opened up his inspiration.
At this time, Sulu's mental power had reached an extremely high level. He could use it at will to cover the entire Portley mansion, and even several meters into the ground, and conducted a "screening".
"Clean...it's so clean..."
After once, he took back his inspiration and sighed.
To him, this mansion seemed to be as clean as being licked by a dog!
During his senses, there was no trace of spiritual bodies stopping around him, and of course no magical items were left behind.
Even, there is not even a silver eagle!
"I always feel... a little sad... but when I think about it, although the Portley family has a long history, it has been too long and the prodigal sons have made too many sacrifices, it may still ruin all their ancestors... especially Tonks!"
How terrible is it necessary to open up the world and the abyss and form a passage that can make people pass through?
Especially, the mover is just an ordinary person?
Sulu estimated that most of the foundation accumulated by the Portley family was consumed by Tonks.
The remaining point was taken by Rhodes and promoted to [Demon Hunter].
As for him?
Haha... Isn't it good to be an ordinary person?
Perhaps in the eyes of this body's father and brother, it should be a good thing for Sulu to study abroad and stay away from the mysterious world.
"It's a pity... the subsequent development completely exceeded their expectations."
Sulu has some regrets.
There were no magical items in this mansion, as he expected.
What he really wanted to 'browse' was the location where Tonks held the ceremony.
"It seems...it's definitely not here. If so, the surrounding environment will definitely be permanently changed..."
Sulu walked around the mansion and finally withdrew.
Chapter completed!
