A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

"The throne is here, so this should be the top of the castle. There should be some valuable things nearby. Let's search separately. If we find anything, notify others to gather together and don't act rashly." Sophia said to the three of them.

"Also, Beora, come with me."

In this way, the four people were divided into three groups and began to search the rooms on this floor.

Wuyue chose a room that looked like a library.

Although it is a library, there are no books left here.

The bookshelves that were once carefully maintained are now rotting and falling apart.

Look at the middle of the room, a pile of ashes.

All the books in this room have long since vanished.

It was burned artificially, as if to destroy something.

"Master, it seems there is nothing of value..."

"Don't worry, look again. These books were burned in a hurry, there might be something missing." Bai Ye said.

There must be nothing left on the bookshelf on the outside.

However, these powerful people always like to create some private space for themselves and hide their own little secrets. Maybe in some corner or behind a bookshelf, there is a mechanism leading to the secret place?

"Wuyue, pay more attention to the abnormally raised bricks on the wall, or behind the portraits."

Sure enough, after several searches, Wuyue found a hidden compartment under a picture that was so bad that nothing could be seen clearly.

"Master, this is locked and requires a key."

Wuyue checked the secret compartment and found that it was locked. The lock was made of an unknown material and had not rusted for thousands of years. It was impossible to break it directly.

"This is easy, I'll do it."

As he spoke, a shadow tentacle emerged from Wuyue's shadow and was inserted directly into the keyhole. Then there were only a few crisp clicks, and the lock was easily unlocked.

Unless it is a magic seal, any regular lock can be unlocked by Bai Ye like this.

But it's a pity that after opening the cabinet door, there are only some jewelry inside, which is the most worthless thing to them.

"This should just be a place where some people hide gadgets. Besides, it only requires a key to open it. If there are really important things, they wouldn't hide them here."

"Whatever, don't give it up for free, just take it."

"Okay, okay..." Wuyue tremblingly picked up handfuls of precious metals and stuffed them into his bag.

It's not your own thing, but you can take it at will.

This makes people feel a little guilty and a little happy at the same time.

This is one of the joys of being an adventurer.

"Huh? Master, look, there seems to be something in here."

After taking all the jewelry from the secret room, Wuyue's hand touched a bump.

"Oh? Is there any mystery?"

"Want to click and try?"

"No, don't press it yet."

Bai Ye stopped Wu Yue, and then knocked on the floor under Wu Yue's feet.

Well, solid.

He looked again to see if there was any place nearby where he could place hidden weapons.

After completing these tasks, Bai Ye spread out his tentacles and weaved them into an all-round protective net, protecting Wuyue in the middle.

"Okay, you can press it now."

"Kacha."

Wuyue pressed the button hard.

No imaginary sounds sounded, no traps were triggered.

"no response?"

Weird.

Wait a moment......

While Bai Ye was in distress, he saw a portrait opposite the portrait.

"What, it turns out to be a double agency."

"Wuyue, you wait here, I'll go to the other side and take a look."

While talking, Bai Ye emerged from Wu Yue's shadow, transformed into Wu Yue again, walked to the opposite side, and pulled off the portrait.

Sure enough, there is a secret compartment hidden under this portrait.

Bai Ye followed the same method and opened this hidden compartment.

Unlike the first secret compartment, there is no gold or jewelry in this compartment, only a piece of decayed parchment.

What was written on it was completely unclear, and no useful information could be seen from the one or two remaining fragments.

Ordinary parchment can be preserved for hundreds of years. How can it be preserved in such a relic from thousands of years ago?

Throwing away the parchment, Byakuya found the same button as on the other side.

"Found it, Wuyue, count to three and press it together."

"three."

"two."

"one."

"Kacha."

This time there was finally movement. From the center of the room, under the ashes of the pile of burned books, there was a "crunching" friction sound.

The sound is so loud that the entire floor should be able to hear it.

"They should have heard the sound. It's time for me to go back."

After saying that, Bai Ye returned to Wu Yue's body.

At this time, the other three people heard the sound and rushed towards Wuyue.

"Wuyue? What happened?" Beora asked.

"Obviously, Wuyue found something interesting." Ke Lulu said when she saw the sunken part in the middle of the room.

......

"What should I say? Do you want to go in? There must be good things inside." Ke Lulu said.

Burning all the books as a cover-up and using a double mechanism design, there is no doubt that this secret passage leads to a place that is more important than this room full of knowledge.

"It's best to explore the way first." Sophia said.

No one knows what’s underneath, so it’s better to be cautious.

"give it to me."

After Ke Lulu finished speaking, she began to cast spells and summons.

After a while, a bat-shaped summon appeared from the magic circle.

"What is this?" Beora asked.

I have never seen Ke Lulu summon something like this.

"Flying Squirrel."

It's a mouse, not a bat, it just happens to have wings.

"Go ahead..."

Ke Lulu squatted down and pushed the little guy gently.

After receiving the order, Flying Squirrel squeaked twice and climbed down the secret passage.

Then, Kelulu took over Momonga's vision.

"It looks like this secret passage is very long...ah! It scared me, it was a skeleton..."

But Lulu was there to experience "The Adventures of Flying Squirrel". The remaining three people couldn't help and could only sit aside and rest.

"Ah, right." Wuyue suddenly remembered something and rummaged around in his bag.

"I just found this from the secret room."

A lot of jewelry was presented in front of the two of them.

"Hey, you can make a lot of money now." Beora saw the value of these pieces of jewelry at a glance.

It’s still a finished product, and you don’t need to find anyone to process it.

Sophia was fascinated by one of the rings.

Picking up the ring from Wuyue, Sophia studied it.

There is an inscription engraved on the inside of the ring.

It's an ancient text that I don't recognize.

But it is still possible to guess its pronunciation using today's common language, and of course there is only a string of pronunciations.

I don't know what it means.

Sophia's lips slowly opened, and the ancient language slowly bloomed from her mouth.

"Lu...Na..."

"Luna Sangevines..."
