Chapter 83: Dove occupying the magpie's nest (seeking further reading!)(1/2)
late at night.
After Chen Lun left Pompeii Manor, he went straight to the former site mentioned by Viscount.
To the west of the inner city, near the ocean, Lona Port stands here. The purple moon is reflected on the sea. At this time, several huge ships are docking, and many boatmen can be seen vaguely dragging the boat loading cargo.
Chen Lun withdrew his gaze and left the terrace at the end of the street.
Walking into the alley from the other side, I turned around and reached the entrance of a manor.
This is No. 4 Wanss Street.
It was just that the door was locked and the sign at the door was removed, indicating that no one lives here now and it was an empty room.
Chen Lun observed the surroundings for a while and saw that no one passed by, so he supported the railing and jumped in.
He did not stop or walk into the villa building, but went around directly to the back. Because [Phillip's Diary] records that the inheritance was buried in the backyard.
"This is……?"
Chen Lun stopped.
He saw tombstones standing in the backyard, separated by carved stone, neatly.
"It turned out to be a cemetery."
Chen Lun walked on the path paved with small stones, his eyes swept over the words on the tombstone.
A few of them are the Pompeii family, and most of them are soldiers who died in the "Overseas Landing War". Looking at the epitaph, it seems that Viscount Pompeii personally wrote it.
"Are these soldiers... comrades in the Viscount's army? Or subordinates...?"
Chen Lun guessed.
He even found the tombstone of Mrs. Caroline's husband Henry, and his son Oliver.
"...My benefactor, my best friend who entrusts his life."
This is Henry's epitaph.
“…A cute child, an excellent son, a brave man.”
This is Oliver's epitaph.
Under the epitaphs of the two, there are Viscount Pompeii's name and date.
Flowers are placed in front of the tombstone, but they have not withered.
Chen Lun sighed.
He continued walking in and found a stone spiritual temple with the gate sealed tightly.
Chen Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, touched the crack of the door with his fingers, and then used the [snake senses] to spit out the snake's information to collect pheromones.
"Someone has been here...but not Viscount Pompeii, nor Mrs. Caroline."
Logically speaking, this kind of spiritual temple is generally a place where corpses of extremely high status are stored, and even for worship, the door will not be easily opened.
Chen Lun was alert and pushed open the door and walked in.
The vertical pupil does not have night vision ability, but can capture heat. At this time, his vision was pitch black and no large creatures were found.
Spitting out a snake letter, he slowly came to a corner of the Ling Temple.
A suspicious stone slab had signs of looseness. He stretched out a finger and easily lifted the heavy stone slab, revealing the long staircase below.
"There is actually a secret passage here..."
Chen Lun was surprised.
If it were not for the pheromones to capture traces of people entering here, it would be difficult for him to find this entrance.
Chen Lun put the sapphire earrings on his right ear and touched the grape ring on his index finger. After a little checking his equipment, he walked down the aisle.
When it reaches a certain level, a bright light appears in front of you, and the oil lamp lit on the wall.
"Someone really!"
He was even more alert.
At the end of the aisle is a bronze door with patterns of various animals and plants carved on it.
Just as he was about to push the door open, the bronze door was opened first from inside.
Bang!
A backlit figure appeared in sight, and a rough female voice sounded:
"Hey! Look at what I found?! A lucky tomb robber!"
As soon as the words were finished, the woman stretched out her big hand and grabbed it.
"Today is your lucky day, man, because you can move into your new home for free, it's the coffin here...haha!"
Bang!!
Two palms fight.
“Huh?”
The woman's laughter stopped, she made a puzzled voice, and took a step back.
“Extraordinary?!”
The next second, the woman came again, and mist appeared on her body, and a faint sound of waves came from it.
With a straight punch, a spiral wind vortex appeared around the fist, blowing out the oil lamps around it.
Pa! Pa!!
Chen Lun used [Rhinoceros Collision] to transform the exoskeleton of the fist and collided with it three times on the front.
But he soon discovered that the impact of each punch was resolved by the opponent's wind vortex and water flow.
The real harm is not one in ten.
"【Deep Sea Faction】The Supernatural..."
Chen Lun secretly said.
He accelerated the offensive speed in the next second and held the rhythm of the battle in his own hands.
【Bear strike】, 【Rhin Crash】 and 【Stork Peck】 are used back and forth, and they become more and more proficient.
There was a sound of ping-pong, echoing in the closed caucus room.
The woman became more and more surprised as she fought. She couldn't see through the man in front of her, but it could be seen that the other party's strength was not inferior to her.
"Thunder!"
She shouted angrily, and an electric arc flashed between her five fingers, and the blue and white fluorescence flashed faintly in the mist.
But in front of her eyes, she lost the figure of the man.
“Where?!”
"Behind!"
A plain male voice made her hair stand on her hair.
Dong!!
Chen Lun had an elbow back, and his powerful impact hit the woman's back.
She groaned and rolled forward. The arc in her palm went out and the mist around her body dissipated. She stood up in a panic and turned her head to look at Chen Lun.
"Who are you?!"
The woman questioned in a deep voice.
Chen Lun glanced at the woman's chest and suddenly realized it.
He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered it on his face, revealing only a pair of green vertical pupils. The handkerchief was given to him by Rebecca, but he had never used it before, but now it happened.
"Owner."
Chen Lun pretended to be a hoarse and low male voice.
Immediately, I took out the black skull token obtained from Dorry and swayed it between my fingers.
“…”
In the darkness, the woman showed a speechless expression.
Your voice is obviously different from before, and you pretend to be too amateur.
And how can I read that piece of cloth that blocks my face and treat it as a perfunctory way? Do you think it’s a house?!
But she didn't want to worry about these things. According to the rules of the organizer of the association, Black Skeleton, those who hold the token can participate in the party.
"Come in, lucky...man."
The woman didn't want to say anything else, so she walked into the interior of the tomb first.
Chen Lun followed closely behind.
To be continued...
