Leaving the garden courtyard, Heath went to the northeast of the castle. Here was an empty courtyard, and in the center of the courtyard stood a square building with a heavy stone roof supported by several stone pillars.
The area is not large, and the image is similar to the entrance of a subway station, and it is also the entrance to an underground facility——
Holy Tomb.
Noble families have the habit of building mausoleums, and the Grafton family is no exception. Since the completion of Gray Castle, the Grafton family has specially built a huge mausoleum under the castle. All the lords of the family will be sent here to rest in peace after their death.
.
At this moment, two guards on the left and right of the entrance to the Holy Tomb were heavily guarded, but they would definitely not be able to see Hiss in his soul state.
After entering from the entrance, there is a long staircase going down. After descending the stairs, you can see the whole view of the Holy Tomb.
There were several braziers set up around it, and the dancing flames illuminated the scene inside.
This is an extremely spacious underground cave. Visually, it is probably the size of a football field at least. The image is somewhat similar to the air raid shelter on Blue Star, with a flat floor, a curved dome, and large stone pillars in the middle.
Hold on.
There is a statue between every two stone pillars, and behind the statue is a sarcophagus. The inscription on the sarcophagus details the identity of the person buried.
These are the ancestors of the Grafton family. In the Grafton family, only lords and some important figures are eligible to enter the Holy Tomb. Over the years, there are only a few dozen, which only occupy a small area of the Holy Tomb.
Area.
Heath turned his head and looked at these statues with different images while floating inside, like a tourist visiting.
After a while, Heath came to the depths of the tomb. There was a newly built cemetery here. The inscription mentioned on it was the newly deceased Duke Rawls, the former Grand Duke of Graycastle. (Louis and Isa were not allowed to enter without official recognition.
Holy Sepulcher.)
'Is there anyone?'
In front of the tomb of Duke Rawls, Heath unexpectedly saw a familiar figure. It was Lady Elsa whose attire and image had left a deep impression on him. At this time, she was sweeping the dust on the sarcophagus with a linen cloth and a broom.
'Are you here to sweep the grave?'
While Heath was watching, Mrs. Elsa suddenly raised her head and looked straight at him. This look left Heath stunned.
Just at this moment, Mrs. Elsa got up and walked towards behind Heath. Only then did Heath notice that there was a small wooden barrel not far behind him. The barrel contained some flowers, and the air was filled with the smell of flowers.
There is a faint elegance and a unique taste like the clear spring at ten o'clock in the morning, moist and slightly earthy.
'Scared me...'
At that moment, Heath really had the illusion that he had been discovered...
Bring back your thoughts.
Heath watched curiously as Mrs. Elsa placed a bouquet of beauties under the moon in front of the tombstone. It was rare to use this kind of flower to sweep the tomb. After all, its flower language... It felt a bit inconsistent before placing it on the tombstone. It was very
inappropriate.
After putting down the bouquet, Mrs. Aisha left with her things in the small wooden bucket.
Heath floated forward and stood in front of the tombstone. He carefully observed the surrounding situation. In his field of vision, he could clearly see that the color of the cemetery was black, white and gray, with no trace of color at all.
.
Heath frowned: So, the previous assumption is invalid?
If he is really a wizard, his body will be severely corroded by the elements, and part of his body will even become elementalized. Theoretically speaking, no matter how long the wizard has been dead, his body tissue will definitely have extremely strong elemental reactions, but Duke Rawls did not see it.
If there are any traces of elements, the guess that the other party is a wizard can basically be ruled out.
'Is this really just a coincidence? The things described in the book are just gods and fabrications that are deliberately exaggerated by scholars?'
'No...'
'There could be so many coincidences there? There must be something wrong!'
Heath always believed that if so many coincidences came together, they would no longer be coincidences. There must be some hidden secrets hidden in them, but at this time, he still lacked the key to unlock them all...
Unwilling to give up, he checked it in detail again, and even put his head through the sarcophagus to take a look at the old Duke's body. However, he still found nothing unusual, so he had to give up.
At this point, the clue is interrupted again.
'Now we can only see if Shuhaizhihui can provide any new clues, but...under the current situation, these scumbags will really help to investigate...'
Heath was a little upset.
'Forget it, let's talk about it later.'
Shaking his head, he pressed down all these messy things, got up and left the cemetery. Since the result has been verified, there is of course no need to stay here. Who would want to stay in such a gloomy ghost place?
Soon, Heath returned to the ground.
I've seen what I need to see, I've checked everything I need to check, now it's time to go back to the house and end this spell, right?
But after thinking about it, Heath felt that it was a pity. The materials consumed to decorate the world are not cheap. I didn't get any benefits and didn't find out anything. If I just went back like this, I would really be at a loss.
Home.
'No, no matter what, at least the capital should be preserved, right? How about trying extraction again?'
The more he thought about it, the more unhappy Heath quickly turned his attention to the system. Since no valuable clues could be found at the Ledge Ruins, let's see if the system can make up for today's losses.
I just don’t know if the extraction can be successful in the soul state...
He did what he thought of, and when he arrived at the entrance of the tomb, Heath immediately used Extraction on one of the soldiers.
"Dip, the extraction is successful, and knowledge is obtained: Swift Sword 1."
Haha, it really works!
Heath was overjoyed.
You know, this is a major discovery, which greatly enhances the practical value of the system. After all, the system has distance limitations, and some people are inconvenient for him to get too close to. There are many things he is interested in and wants to extract while on the ship.
The target had no choice but to give up because he couldn't get close.
"It's fine now. If there is a similar situation in the future, if you become a soul, you won't be able to get as close as you want, just put it directly on your face."
After being happy for a while, Heath turned his attention to the harvest.
Swift Sword.
This is a set of swordsmanship that is widely circulated in the mainland. It is adapted from the basic swordsmanship. It can be regarded as a set of elementary swordsmanship. Knights who cannot inherit the swordsmanship and ordinary nobles basically learn this. It can be regarded as a real mass product.
.
However, when used properly, street goods can be extremely powerful. Goode, who originally brought this set of swordsmanship to Heath, is a typical example. The scene of him fighting the robbers at that time is still fresh in Heath's memory.
Thanks to him, the swift sword extracted from him has become the essence of his many years of training, but this does not mean that there is no room for improvement. If we are a threesome, we must have a master. A thousand different knights have practiced the same swordsmanship.
There will also be a thousand different experiences. Heath's basic swordsmanship can still extract knowledge points from time to time.
The swift sword extracted from this guard is actually knowledge points that Goode has not understood. These knowledge points may not be very powerful, but they have become a piece of the puzzle that can make up for the shortcomings of the Hiss swift sword.
'If I keep extracting it like this, maybe one day my swordsmanship will reach the 'perfect' state, haha.'
Perfection, this is a realm of swordsmanship that Heath has seen in books. It is said that it is a realm formed after a swordsman masters and integrates all the swordsmanship and swordsmanship in the world. There are no longer any flaws or flaws in the swordsmanship. The true meaning
Perfect swordsmanship without any flaws.
However, Hiss has only seen this kind of swordsmanship in books, and they are all similar to novels and biographies. Like the eternal realm of wizards, they are all legendary, and it is not clear whether Hiss actually exists.
Immediately, Heath extracted another guard.
What was extracted this time was the attribute [mental power]. Ordinary humans can also extract mental power, but the probability and quality are much worse than that of apprentices. For example, the mental power extracted by Heath this time was only 0.03.
Better than nothing!
Nowadays, it is getting more and more difficult to improve mental power. A mental power of 0.03 is enough for Heath to practice hard for several days.
'Who should I extract next...'
This draw is like gambling, and the draws are getting higher and higher. Anyway, there is still some time before the candle is extinguished. Heath immediately began to think about his next draw target, and he must spend all three draws this week.
.
'So, who should I draw? Knight? Servant? Soldier?'
Due to the limited range of activities during this period, Hiss' extraction targets have been very single. Most of the time, he directly harvested wool from the four of Ike, and the others were knights, servants, etc. in the castle.
'By the way, I can go there anyway, so why not draw that guy? Maybe I can draw something good...'
Quickly going through the extraction objects in his mind, Heath quickly locked on a target, an object that he had been interested in trying to extract before, but had never found any suitable opportunity to extract...
Heath turned his gaze and quickly locked onto the main building of the castle: 'You should still be able to extract good things from an extraction target of this level, right?'
With these thoughts in mind, Heath floated towards the main building...
