533. Insight

 Bradbury Abandoned Manor is located in the old aristocratic district. This area is dotted with various ancient aristocratic mansions.

These mansions cover a very large area. In the city of Bena where land is precious, these ancient aristocratic mansions themselves are huge wealth. The simple walls outside some mansions have become old and worn out under the baptism of time. Some buildings are

After several renovations, it now has a sense of historical vicissitudes, appears solemn and solemn, and has a bit of decadent and lonely Gothic style.

Walking on this street, you can often see some guard camp knights riding horses through the quiet long street. The walls on both sides of the street are covered with dense ivy and ivy.

When Surdak passes by knights, they will carefully examine the badge on Surdak's chest.

It seems that this place is far more heavily fortified than Surdak imagined. It is hard to imagine how the rebels managed to attack Bradbury at night under the inspection of so many guard battalion knights.

Of the manor.

Unfortunately, the woman from the Thieves Guild didn't give enough information last night, and Surdak didn't know the relevant details.

There is a wide square at the gate of Bradbury Manor. This is the place where carriages are parked when grand balls are held. Some weeds and thorns have grown between the gaps between the flat stone slabs. The large iron gate at the gate of the manor is rusty.

There are many traces of it, and there is a nearly three-meter-high marble humanoid statue erected in front of the door.

The low black stone tablet at the foot of the statue is engraved with: Green Empire 1708-1857, Duke Hector Bradbury, Lord of Paglos Mountain in Bena Province, he walked up the mountains with a sword in his hand

At the top of the mountain, the spirit and glory he left behind will become the most precious wealth here. Written by Joseph Angelibald in the autumn of 1857.

Suldak didn't know which emperor of the Green Empire King Joseph was, but he seemed to be able to leave his name on this monument, so much so that even when the descendants of the Bradbury family were at their lowest, they still didn't dare to leave this monument.

A mansion was sold, I heard it was because of the stone tablet under the statue.

In order to commemorate the great hero's outstanding contribution to Bena City, no one wants to live in this manor. Every time Bradbury's birthday comes, some people will place a bouquet of flowers in front of the bronze statue at the entrance of the manor.

.

Duke Hector Bradbury fought and traveled throughout his life. Although he had the status of a duke, he never took charge of the province of Bena.

Surdak stood in front of this statue, looking at this man who dared to marry a giant sea beast as his wife, and felt many emotions in his heart.

There was a big hole in the iron gate of the manor. They had lost their function as doors. They were tied together with iron wire and became part of the outer wall of the manor. The big hole was almost big enough for Surdak to walk in on horseback.

The iron bars were cut with a sharp weapon. Suldak felt that his blood-red crescent was not so sharp as it could not cut through the iron bars on the large iron door that were as thick as a child's arm.

There was no one guarding the door of the dilapidated manor. Surdak walked around the manor, then left his horse outside the manor, and walked alone into this manor full of decay. There were traces of the battle everywhere.

and some messy footprints.

A group of guard camp knights came from a distance and set their sights on Surdak again.

Knowing that he had attracted the attention of this group of guard camp knights, Suldak no longer planned to sneak into the manor for a walk, but rode out on horseback from the other side of the long street in the noble district.

After the rebels attacked Bradbury Manor, the guard camp intensified patrols in the old aristocratic district. Whenever any suspicious situation was discovered, knights from the guard camp would watch from a distance, for fear of another sudden appearance of rebels in the city.



Surdak spent three silver coins to buy parchment and envelopes in the grocery store, and went to a restaurant next to the hotel for lunch before returning to the Maple Leaf Hotel.



Returning to the hotel, Surdak opened the curtains.

During the day, the backstreet of the hotel is quieter than at night, with not many pedestrians visible and few magic caravans on the roadside.

As expected, Mrs. Dorothy's carriage has disappeared. On the small townhouse opposite, a young man in a white shirt is sitting on a wicker chair on the terrace, quietly reading a book. The young man

Wearing leather armor and breeches, his body is very well-proportioned. There is a glass of wine on the coffee table, and he looks very relaxed.

Surdak looked back.

He turned around and sat at the desk, picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Beatrice first.

He corresponded with Hathaway, and his replies were always sent to Beatrice, who was more free.

Then he wrote a letter of visit to Marquis Luther. The letter stated that he had arrived in Bena City and that he would stay in Bena City this week and could visit him at any time.

After writing the two letters, Surdak put them into envelopes, glued the mouth of the envelopes with red clay, and pulled the rope on the wall to call the waiter.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Suldak walked to the door and opened the door. A hotel waiter stood at the door and asked Suldak respectfully: "Sir, what do you need?"

Surdak asked the waiter to wait at the door, turned around and took out two letters from the table and handed them to the waiter. He gave him a tip of one silver coin and asked him to send the two letters to the address.

The waiter took the silver coins and letterhead with a look of joy on his face. He often received a tip for delivering letters.

I saw the waiter put the two letters into his arms, saluted Suldak, and quickly walked out of the hotel, and then began to prepare for the sacrificial ceremony.

He planned to go to Bradbury Manor, an old aristocratic area, again in the evening, but this time he had to be prepared before going to the manor.

Wait until everything is ready for the sacrificial ceremony.

Surdak took out a magic sealing box from his magic pocket. This magic sealing box contained four salamander skulls as sacrifices. The salamander heads were obviously taller than the hell dog heads.

Get a level up.

Since the last time he discovered that there were three more blessing effects to choose from in the sacrifice ceremony, Surdak has not tried these three blessing effects, mainly because these blessing effects require more sacrifices.

Before heading to Bradbury Manor this time, Suldak planned to try the magical effect of 'insight' among these three blessings.

Seeing the two-faced and four-armed demon god statue emerging from the center of the altar, Surdak stood on the altar, holding a salamander head in both hands and offering it to the face of the god. He conveyed to the demon god his wish to gain insight.

Ability, but unfortunately the demon statue didn't respond at all.

He gritted his teeth and took out a well-preserved salamander head from the magic sealing box and sacrificed it. As the salamander head turned into a breath and disappeared, the ability of insight still failed to come to him.

Surdak was cruel and sacrificed the third head. A beam of light descended from the ceiling and covered Surdak's whole body...
