This is a temporary expedition team composed of two magicians, four warriors, two archers, three swordsmen, and two rangers.
And they also have a very resounding name "Warriors and Roses".
Yesterday afternoon when they attended the sorority party held by Bena Senior College, these thirteen young people sat together and chatted for most of the night. After the sorority party, they ran to the bar and chatted until late, talking as quickly as possible.
Speed makes up this adventure group.
Among this group of young people is a magic transfer student named Jimmy.
He was originally a student of the Imperial Magic Academy, but for some unknown reason gave up the excellent study conditions of the Imperial Magic Academy and recently transferred to the Bena Magic Academy. The Bena Magic Academy ranks absolutely among the many high-end magic academies in the Green Empire.
Not in the top ten. It is said that the family behind Jimmy has a background in the Imperial Capital, and Jimmy himself has made friends with many wealthy and noble sons in the Imperial Capital. It is rumored that he offended a member of the royal family in the Imperial Capital and ran to Bena City to avoid trouble.
Jimmy's aunt is the prosecutor of the Bena Province Adventure Union. Jimmy took this group of young people to find his aunt, and the prosecutor signed a temporary adventure group voucher for these young people. It was just this adventure group voucher
It is only valid for three weeks and is only valid within the city of Bena.
As the sun sets, the sky in Bena City becomes darker little by little.
The young people of the 'Warriors and Roses' adventure group took a magic caravan to the old aristocratic neighborhood and got off the road about two kilometers away from Bradbury Manor. This group of young people were almost fully armed and dressed in
Exquisite armor, carrying gorgeous weapons, found a gap in the old wall with excitement on his face.
The ranger who led the way opened the ivy at the gap, and the group of people filed into the backyard of Bradbury Manor. In the night, the overgrown manor backyard looked desolate. Among the thirteen young people, there were five aristocratic ladies.
Studied at Bena Swordsman Academy.
This adventurous action was actually planned by two young nobles who wanted to please several noble ladies.
Jimmy glanced at Miss Judith who was following behind. She was wearing a set of ice deer leather armor and two light blue long swords hanging on her waist. Her fair face looked a little nervous, and her long straight legs were almost almost closed when they were brought together.
There are no gaps.
Judith pursed her lips slightly, looked at the desolate courtyard, and asked her best friend Cora behind her: "I heard that a big incident happened in Redbury Manor not long ago. Will there be any trouble if we sneak in like this?
"
Cora stared at her big eyes, hesitated a little, and whispered to Judith: "I've heard about this too."
"Don't worry, we have the credentials of the adventure group, and we did a simple investigation at Bradbury Manor. This manor has been abandoned, and there is usually no one at all. It doesn't matter even if we are discovered. We have not stolen anything, and besides, we
Have an adventure group certificate." A young nobleman came up from behind with a sword and shield on his back and said to the two noble ladies.
Jimmy squinted his slender eyes, turned to the people behind him and said, "We will go to the manor at night to look for some clues about the rebels. I heard that a group of rebels had attacked this manor before."
“Isn’t that dangerous?” Cora leaned towards Jimmy and wanted to hold his arm.
Jimmy, however, calmly asked the young nobleman carrying a sword and shield: "It should be nothing, right?"
The young nobleman patted his chest and said: "You and Luke are the best young magicians in Bena City, and we are equally good. How can there be a problem!"
"Cora, Agatha, do you want to go?" Judith hesitated and asked her best friends for advice.
When things came to a close, she suddenly didn’t want to go anymore.
Cora, who had a pointed chin and big eyes, glanced at Jimmy the Magician, bit her lipstick-smeared lips, and said, "How about we go and have a look! No matter what happens, we will turn around and leave immediately."
“Yes, Judith, haven’t you always wanted to explore?” Best friend Agatha also echoed.
"Don't worry, we are just looking for some clues about the rebels in the empty house, there will be nothing else." Jimmy said to Judith diligently: "If we can trace the clues about the rebels, it is estimated that our graduation resume column will be
Become prettier."
At this time, Cora, who looked like a nymphomaniac, once again stuck to Jimmy's side and asked in a delicate voice: "Jimmy Magician, will you protect me?"
Jimmy pointed to the Sword and Shield noble behind Cora, and said teasingly: "Your prince is standing behind you now, and I think Judith needs my protection more."
Judien glanced at Jimmy's dark circles formed by excessive indulgence, and forced a smile.
At this time, the ranger exploring the road ahead sent a signal to move forward...
…
Suldak discovered this adventurous group composed of young nobles at the moment when these young nobles walked into the cloister from the back garden.
At that time, this group of young nobles were still discussing in low voices the traces of fighting in the corridor.
It had just darkened, and the figures of the young nobles gathered in the cloister were somewhat blurry.
Suldak hid behind a broken stone sculpture of a mountain lion.
These young nobles gathered around a stone pillar that had been cut off by a sharp sword. When they were talking in low voices, the voices of several young nobles were a bit familiar.
When the long-legged aristocratic lady turned her head, Suldak recognized her at a glance. She seemed to be one of the aristocratic ladies he had seen on the magic airship.
Two of those young nobles seemed to be passengers on the magic airship.
Suldak suddenly realized that the world seemed a bit small indeed. They actually entered Bradbury Manor at night and discussed some matters about the Northern Rebels in the manor. While on the airship, these young nobles
They have been hanging around a few noble ladies all day long, and now they are actually exploring the manor together. These young people are really full of energy!
After paying three salamander heads, Surdak obtained the blessing effect of 'Insight'. Although it was not an enhanced version of the Eye of Truth as Surdak imagined, it strengthened the maintenance time of the Eye of Truth.
It has the ability to see at night and see through invisibility.
In addition, his vision seems to have become sharper, which allows him to move as easily at night as during the day.
Suldak sneaked into Bradbury Manor, walked into the main building along the stone steps, and saw this group of young people in the cloister.
The dilapidated scene in the manor is more serious than it looks from the outside. It is full of the smell of decay, dilapidated buildings, withered leaves...
Some roads are cracked and overgrown.
There was no trace of living people in the empty courtyard, and it looked like a cemetery that had been abandoned for a long time.
Walking into the manor, Bradbury Manor, with the last layer of veil torn off, is so old and dilapidated.
Suldak bypassed the aristocratic young people and stepped into the most splendid main building of the manor.
The emblem of the Bradbury family can still be seen vaguely on the ironwood door with intricately carved patterns. Unfortunately, the door has been broken through and dismantled in pieces. Step through the door and walk into the hall of the main building.
, the dark hall was empty, and there was still some blood stains on the floor.
All the valuable collectibles and furniture in the hall were sold, and the walls were bare. The only things left were traces of the removal of oil paintings and decorations on the walls. Even the chandelier on the ceiling only had a chain and a lamp holder left.
, when you see the dozens of lamp holders, you can imagine the grand scene when this hall was brightly lit.
A few dozen meters away, Surdak saw a down-and-out nobleman sitting on the carpet holding a wine bottle by the stairs next to the hall, drunk.
Surdak hid in the shadows, bypassed the stairwell, and climbed to the second floor from the other side. There were still traces of the fight in the corridor on the second floor. Surdak took advantage of his night vision.
With the ability, I walked around the main building quietly, following the traces of the fight, and found an exhibition hall at the end of the corridor on the third floor of the main building.
A section of the knight's spear penetrated straight into the wall two feet behind, and the tip of the spear shot out of the wall from the other side. You can imagine how powerful the knight's blow was.
Walking to the smashed exhibition hall, some stone sculptures in the room were broken into stones. Apart from that, there were only some wooden booths and display racks around the walls that could not be moved.
Suldak was wandering around the showroom when he heard a woman's scream coming from downstairs.
Then someone exclaimed loudly: "There is a man lying here..."
“He seems to be injured...oh, no, he seems to be drunk!”
“He is the last member of the Bradbury family. I have seen him at a ball before. At that time, he was a pretty boy who relied on lovers for financial support. I didn’t expect him to be in such a miserable state now..."
“Hey, you can’t say that in front of others.”
“Let’s go inside and have a look, I brought a torch!”
“It doesn’t take so much effort.”
‘Low light illumination…’
“It’s so convenient to have a magician in the team!”
There was a glimmer of light coming from the window downstairs. Surdak did not expect that this adventurous group would find their way into the main building so quickly.
Without thinking too much, he took out the crystal key from the magic belt bag and placed it on the most conspicuous booth in the center of the showroom. The key-shaped crystal key was broken on the booth. Surda
Ke placed the crystal key here and wanted to take the opportunity to sneak out.
He just took a few steps and then stepped back.
He saw a wall carved with a gate.
He picked up the crystal key that was broken into two parts and walked to a wall relief carved in the shape of a door in the showroom. This relief door occupied almost half of the wall. It was very eye-catching in the showroom, and the relief
There is the Bradbury family emblem in the center of the door, and there is clearly a key-shaped groove in the center of the emblem.
Suldak lowered his head and looked at the crystal key in his hand, and found that the shape of the crystal key just matched the groove. He put the crystal key into the groove smoothly, and the crystal key actually fit in perfectly.
A faint magical light flashed on the wall. Although it was only for a moment, Surdak was still keenly aware of it.
It turns out that the Crystal Key was placed here before...Suldak thought to himself.
He wanted to leave Bradbury Manor before those young people came here, but before he walked out of the showroom, he heard faint footsteps in the corridor. There were no windows in the showroom except display racks and booths.
and another door, Suldak was blocked in the showroom for a while.
He didn't want his whereabouts to be exposed. At the critical moment, Suldak looked around the showroom and found a row of closets in the left corner of the showroom. He ran to the most remote corner of the showroom and hurriedly opened a closet.
door, hidden inside the cabinet.
Just when Suldak closed the cabinet door, a figure flashed across the door of the showroom. The man seemed to have noticed something moving in the showroom. He held up a moonstone with white light in his hand. After walking into the showroom, he
He looked around cautiously and found that there was no one in the showroom, and was immediately startled.
The man then looked at the wall cabinet on one side of the showroom. The entire empty showroom was the only place where someone could hide.
He walked over step by step...
Suldak hid in the closet, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, calling silently in his heart: 'Aphrodite, Aphrodite, Aphrodite...'
The moment the man walked to the closet, a six-pointed star formation appeared under Surdak's feet, and his body passed through the void rift in nothingness...
In the far corner of the closet, Suldak's figure disappeared without a trace.
The man held up the moonstone and opened the closet doors one after another. He found that the closet was also empty. He was stunned for a while and had a little doubt about his judgment.
At this time, chaotic footsteps sounded in the third-floor corridor. The young nobles whispered in low voices and walked along the corridor to the door of the showroom.
The man quickly closed all the closet doors and hid in the corner closet.
The low-light illumination technique is a ball of light floating in mid-air. The ball of light floated into the showroom, and the young nobles following behind exclaimed:
Cora shouted nervously and excitedly: "Look, there is a showroom here..."
Even if she didn’t shout, everyone would have seen the showroom.
The young nobleman carrying a shield and sword walked up to the spear, touched the cold body of the spear with his hand, and said with great disdain:
“The craftsmanship of this knight’s spear is really rough. Bulwer, how do you think it penetrated the wall?”
A ranger came up from behind. He looked at the knight's spear on the wall seriously, shook his head and said:
"I don't know, I guess even the instructors in the academy can't do it! If it was really a knight who pierced the wall during the battle, it can only mean that he is really strong..."
“Do you think it could be those rebel knights?”
Jimmy walked from the center of the queue to the front, stared at the dark door of the showroom, and said to everyone: "Let's go in and take a look."
Amidst the sound of conversation, this group of young nobles walked into the showroom...
