Viscount Pompey asked.

Chen Lun smiled and waved his hands.

"It's alright, Your Excellency the Viscount, I like these three items very much, thank you for your generosity."

"As long as Mr. Jack likes it."

Viscount Pompey asked Binoz to close the secret door with an admiration on his face.

Mr. Jack really has a noble character, neither greed nor arrogance, and he knows how to control himself when he sees good things.And he is also a transcendent in the mysterious field, worthy of deep friendship.

It can be seen that Rebecca likes him very much, if...

"Forget it, it's not something I should think about."

Viscount Pompey reminded himself secretly.

When going downstairs, Chen Lun suddenly discovered that the task of [Philip's Legacy] had not been completed.

"Huh... haven't you finished taking it yet? It shouldn't be, I have checked everything in that collection room."

He was a little puzzled.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Lun tentatively asked Viscount Pompeii:

"Your Excellency, do you know a man named 'Philip'?"

Viscount Pompeii stopped suddenly.

There was a surprised expression on his face, and even Binoz who was on the side looked at Chen Lun in surprise.

"Mr. Jack, do you know Mr. Philip?"

said Viscount Pompey.

"I have read his writings."

Chen Lun looked admiring on the surface, but doubts arose in his heart.

Mr. Philip...?

Hearing Viscount Pompeii's address to Philip, coupled with the expression on the old butler's face, he suddenly thought of something.

It seems that Philip has a lot to do with the Pompey family.

Go back to the living room on the first floor.

Binoz made black tea for the two of them himself, and the Viscount Pompeii picked up the teacup and slowly told the past.

It turned out that Philip used to be the tutor of Viscount Pompeii, and that was more than ten years ago.

When he was young, Pompey was ignorant, and his father, the previous Viscount, found a tutor for him, Philip.

Although Philip is young, he is knowledgeable and humorous.The two quickly became friends and often took him to the zoo to play.

"Speaking of this, the last time Mr. Jack walked with us, I remembered Mr. Philip back then..."

Viscount Pompeii smiled and took a sip from his teacup.

"At that time, he often beat me with a leather whip...Of course, without the teacher's whip, there would be no Pompeii today.

I am very grateful to him. It was Teacher Philip who saved a decadent and ignorant nobleman. "

He put down his teacup with emotion on his face.

"It's a pity that the teacher traveled far away later, and I also went to join the army, so we never got in touch again."

Chen Lun listened silently, moving his fingers slightly.

He seems to have gone back to the past and became the plot party player who digs out the story of the event, which makes him feel happy.

"We moved later. Although we left contact information at the old address, we haven't heard from the teacher so far..."

Viscount Pompeii spoke slowly, with a low tone.

Chen Lun's heart skipped a beat.

move place? !

It turns out that this is not the real "Pompeii Manor"!

"It's no wonder [Philip's Legacy] the quest didn't show as completed... because the burial place is not here at all!"

Chen Lun thought to himself.

He organized his language and asked Viscount Pompeii about the old site of the manor in a natural tone.

"Oh, it's . . . [-] Wans Street, on the west side of the inner city, near Port Launa."

Viscount Pompeii seemed a little unable to remember, and he explained it clearly after being reminded by the butler Binoz next to him.

Chen Lun nodded and did not continue on this topic.

In my heart, I planned to go to this old site and get the share of [Philip's legacy].

Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly remembered the letter that Mrs. Caroline asked Connie to deliver.

"Your Excellency, Viscount, this is Mrs. Caroline from No. [-] Denton Street in the outer city. I have entrusted you with a letter..."

Chen Lun took out the letter from his pocket and put it on the coffee table.

And paraphrased Mrs. Caroline's words:

"She said 'she doesn't blame you, Henry will always be your best friend'…"

Then salute and leave.

At the last moment of leaving the gate, he looked back and saw Viscount Pompeii, took out a medal from the envelope, held the letter in his hand, and burst into tears.

Chapter 83 鸠占鹊巢(求追读!)

late at night.

After Chen Lun left the Pompeii Manor, he went straight to the old site mentioned by the Viscount.

On the west side of the inner city, close to the sea, the Port of Launa stands here.The purple moon was reflected on the sea surface. At this time, several huge ships were docked, and many trackers could be vaguely seen, dragging the small boats loaded with goods.

Chen Lun looked away and left the terrace at the end of the street.

Walked into the alley from the other side, turned around and arrived at the gate of a manor.

This is No. [-] Wans Street.

It's just that the door is locked and the sign at the door is removed, indicating that no one lives here now, and it is an empty house.

Chen Lun looked around and saw no one passing by, so he supported the railing and jumped in.

He didn't stay, nor did he enter the villa building, but went directly to the back.Because it is recorded in [Philip's Diary] that the legacy was buried in the backyard.

"This is……?"

Chen Lun stopped in his tracks.

He saw tombstones standing in the backyard, neatly separated by carved stones.

"It turned out to be a cemetery."

Chen Lun walked on the path paved with small stones, his eyes glanced at the words on the tombstone.

A few belonged to the Pompeii family, and most of them were soldiers who participated in the "overseas landing battle" and died. Looking at the epitaphs, it seems that Viscount Pompeii personally inscribed them.

"These soldiers...are the Viscount's comrades-in-arms? Or are they subordinates...?"

Chen Lun guessed.

He even found the tombstones of Mrs. Caroline's husband Henry and her son Oliver here.

"...my benefactor, my dear friend who entrusted my life."

This is Henry's epitaph.

"...Lovely child, excellent son, brave man."

This is Oliver's epitaph.

Under the epitaphs of the two, there are the names and dates of Viscount Pompeii.

There are flowers in front of the tombstone, which have not withered.

Chen Lun sighed.

He continued to walk in, and found a stone spiritual temple, the door was tightly sealed.

Chen Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, touched the crack of the door with his fingers, and immediately used [Snake Sense] to spit out snake letters 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 the bones of extremely high-ranking people are stored, and even if it is for worship, the door will not be opened easily.

Chen Lun raised his vigilance, opened the door and walked in.

Vertical pupils do not have night vision capabilities, but they can capture heat.At this time, his vision was pitch black, and he didn't find any large creatures.

Spitting out the snake letter, he slowly came to a corner of the spiritual temple.

A suspicious stone slab showed signs of being loose. He stretched out a finger and easily lifted the heavy stone slab, revealing the long stairs below.

"There is actually a secret passage here..."

Chen Lun was surprised.

If it weren't for the traces of someone entering here based on the pheromone, it would be difficult for him to find this entrance.

Chen Lun put the sapphire earring on his right ear and touched the grape ring on his index finger.After checking his equipment briefly, he walked down the aisle.

When it descended to a certain level, a bright light appeared in front of it, which was an oil lamp lit on the wall.

"Really someone!"

He is more vigilant.

At the end of the aisle is a bronze door carved with patterns of various animals and plants.

Just as he was about to push the door and enter, the bronze door was opened first from the inside.

Bang!

A backlit figure appeared in sight, and a thick female voice sounded immediately:

"Hey! Look what I found?! A lucky grave robber!"

As soon as the voice fell, the woman stretched out a big hand to grab it.

"Today's your lucky day, man, because you're about to move into your new home for free, and that's the coffin here...haha!"

Bang! !

Two palms hit each other.

"what?"

The woman's laughter stopped, she made a puzzled sound, and took a step back.

"Extraordinary?!"

The next second, the woman struck again, mist gushed out of her body, and the faint sound of waves came from it.

With a straight punch, a spiral vortex appeared around the fist, blowing out the surrounding oil lamps.

Snapped!clap clap! !

Chen Lun cast [Rhinoceros Bump] to exoskeletonize the face of the fist, and hit it three punches head-on.

But he soon discovered that the impact of each punch was dispelled by the opponent's wind vortex and water flow.

In real harm, there is no one in ten.

"[Deep Sea Faction] Extraordinary..."

Chen Lun thought secretly.

He speeded up his attack in the next second, and controlled the rhythm of the battle in his own hands.

[Bear strike], [rhinoceros strike] and [stork peck] are used back and forth, becoming more and more proficient.

There was a sound of ping-pong-pong, echoing in the closed underground chamber.
