Chapter 192 A thousand articles are not a thousand articles
Seeing the black butterfly brooch on Princess Teresa's chest, Su Lun's eyes froze.
He realized immediately that things might be more complicated than expected.
The more I think about it, the more I feel like the hairs are standing on end.
On the first day he came across, he was in this manor, in this banquet hall, and met a ghostly little girl named "Pestoya".
The little girl gave him such a butterfly brooch.
Su Lun once saw the "???" message in the brooch with his eyes of omniscience, so he hid it in a corner of the burrow just to be on the safe side.
Looking back now, he still felt that the act of hiding the brooch was very necessary.
This is a world with mysterious powers.
When the Omniscient Eye identified several "???" messages, they all involved very high-end things.
Although Su Lun didn't know what it was, 80% of it was some indescribable existence.
Moreover, the current Su Lun is no longer a cognitive novice on the first day of transmigration.
He also knows now that the people in the cursed space, no matter how real, are still remnants or illusions.
Generally speaking, even ghosts are NPCs with less intelligence.
But Su Lun has now experienced so many cursed spaces and encountered many monsters, but compared with the "Pestoya" he once encountered, his wisdom is completely different.
Emotions, dialogue, logical thinking skills
"Pestoya" is exactly like a real person!
This made Su Lun more and more certain that the level of the cursed space of [Storm Wind Manor] would be unimaginably high.
Or, very special.
After all, Pestoya also has an identity, she is the daughter of Sir Isaac!
This was a strange story at first, but now that Su Lun understands some of the background of Dawn City, he realizes that it must involve some secrets from a thousand years ago.
Then that brooch appears here.
It's getting weirder!
The moment he saw Princess Teresa, Su Lun narrowed his eyes, and then moved his position quietly, trying to avoid the possibility of being seen by her.
When he saw this brooch, two thoughts popped up in a conditioned reflex.
1. The brooch that I buried was discovered and dug up, it is just an ordinary curse;
2. This brooch has a big problem;
Su Lun's way of thinking has always been to think badly.
He chose 2.
There's a good chance there's something wrong with this brooch.
Before that, he had suspected that there was something in the ruins of the dawn that would attract the princess of the dignified grand duke's family to take personal risk.
It now seems that either she has discovered some secrets from the brooch, such as a treasure map.
But even if it was a treasure map, there was no need for her to come in person.
After all, the entire underground world is her family's mine, so just send someone here.
Either she had some reason she had to come.
Still urgent.
Either way, Su Lun felt it was best not to get involved.
Looking at Teresa's arrogant aura, he also vaguely understood what was going on with the familiar feeling before.
As soon as Teresa came out, everyone's eyes were focused on the past.
In fact, even in the inner city, very few of those big chaebols have ever seen the princess.
After all, who is the mine owner's daughter, who would dig into her own mine if she had nothing to do?
Most of the people present felt that the arrogance on Teresa's face was the temperament that high nobles should have.
But who would have thought that the Duke's Mansion in the inner city might be just a decoration.
Occasionally people go down to the mine to inspect the situation, and these people regard it as a gift.
After Teresa entered the banquet hall, she didn't say a word.
But it was this attitude of disregarding everything that made the group of people in the inner city excited.
Ah. This is the real nobility.
One by one, their praises were not stingy, it sounded like a whisper, but that voice, wishing that their praises would be heard by the princess.
"Oh, Princess Teresa is so beautiful, like an angel."
"I can see the princess with my own eyes on this trip, not to mention coming to this ruins, even if I go to die, I will not hesitate."
"Yeah. It would be the honor of my life if I could kiss her toes."
"Ah! My Varun family will always be the most faithful servants of the Duke and Princess Teresa."
"."
Su Lun listened, always feeling very strange.
It was the first time to participate in this kind of high society reception, and the atmosphere of touting the lord made him a little uncomfortable.
Fortunately, this Teresa didn't seem to have any idea of drinking and having dinner here. As soon as she came, she directly entered the theme of the banquet.
The female official behind her announced: "The purpose of the princess's invitation to call you to the ruins of dawn is clear to everyone. The mission this time is to explore the ruins and find something."
A lot of chatter.
Su Lun listened to the female officer's words, and quickly analyzed some key information in his mind.
Open up wasteland, find something.
That Teresa wasn't sure where the "things" were, and needed to reclaim the entire ruins.
Then there are tasks and rewards.
Listening to the female official, which family can find what the princess wants, it will definitely be appreciated by the duke's palace and become the first family in the inner city.
"The major families must arrive on time and follow the route to the core city of the ruins"
After a while, the female officer finished speaking.
She waved her hand and snorted softly: "Draw a lot!"
The words fell, and a group of servants came up one after another with plates.
The principals of the major families stepped forward to draw lots, like cutting a cake. The ruins were divided into more than 30 lines, and which one was selected was the one.
Coincidentally, little girl Reina went up to draw and got the No. 16 lottery.
The fifteenth is the Oliver family and the seventeenth is the Clark family.
It also means that on the way to the wild hunt, there are enemies on both sides.
Compared to Reina's bitter face, Su Lun smiled disapprovingly when she saw this: "These guys still have some means, they can actually do things in the lottery"
But it's fine.
He was still thinking about the treasure in the hands of Young Master Dan Ze.
This time I'm going to hunt the famine, and there are dangers everywhere, and the young and old will most likely bring it.
After the lottery was over, the Princess Teresa withdrew.
Su Lun was also inexplicably relieved.
The feeling that made his brows secretly ache disappeared.
Although he only saw a familiar butterfly brooch, he faintly felt heart palpitations.
The princess left, thinking that there would be a formal banquet behind.
Unexpectedly, at this time, maids walked in with silver-lid plates and began to serve the "main course".
When the main dish was served, a strong smell of blood immediately swept the entire banquet hall.
Everyone looked at each other and thought it was some new "sashimi"
The Princess Teresa had already left, and everyone at the reception was less cautious.
Someone curiously opened the plate and took a look.
All eyes focused on the past.
However, it was discovered that it was actually a simply pickled bloody head!
Not all the young masters and young ladies in the inner city have seen blood, and when they saw it, they all turned pale with fright and exclaimed instantly. But because it was the temporary residence of that Miss Teresa, they covered their mouths one by one, and no one dared to scream out loud.
Someone recognized the origin of the head, and said tremblingly, "Isn't this the youngest son of Mr. Marino, the owner of the 'Tessaly Family'?"
When he opened the other plates, he saw that the Tessaly family was all there.
From old to young, the heads of more than 20 direct descendants of the family are here.
Head banquet.
This terrifying scene blinded everyone.
Looking at the table full of people, these inner city young masters and young ladies immediately understood something.
This is to kill the chicken and warn the monkeys.
But they also didn't understand why the "Tessaly Family" was suddenly wiped out.
"Why is this?"
"Yeah, aren't Mr. Tessaly and the others actively responding to the wild hunt? We also sent a lot of people this time."
"Is it a mistake, or is there another reason?"
"."
There are no airtight walls in high society circles.
At this time, a woman stood up and told the truth.
"Hey, I probably know what's going on. Before, Mrs. Tessaly was reluctant to let her son come to hunt the wild, and then she took a fluke and temporarily replaced a bodyguard's son as a substitute. She also advised me to do this. "
As she said that, the lady still didn't forget to express her attitude: "I warned them not to play tricks, so let's do it. The Duke's orders should be implemented well, and it's not like this."
Everyone understands this.
He thought it was flawless, but the results were all under the control of the Black Tower.
This also made the young masters and young ladies who wanted to play tricks in the wild hunt feel a chill in their necks for no reason.
The tough attitude of that Princess Teresa shattered any illusions they had.
For a time, the huge reception was silent.
But
They are a bunch of people who have no credit or hard work.
As a territorial citizen of Duke Raphael, those who can stand here are all powerful people in the inner city.
To warn them in such a brutal and brutal way?
It seems that this is not a crime that deserves death. The duke's mansion is actually not showing any sympathy. For a big family, if it is wiped out, it will be wiped out?
The expressions of the crowd were complex, worried, angry, puzzled, and resentful.
But no one dared to say anything.
But the more top-level families in the inner city, the more they know the horror of the Black Tower.
In particular, some people who have heard only a few words about the "uprising" fifty years ago from their elders are even more silent.
Su Lun watched from a distance, seeing this familiar scene, he was no less shocked than others.
But it wasn't to shock this bloody head banquet, it was this method that made him feel inexplicably familiar!
Same banquet hall, same bloody means.
Su Lun seemed to recall the original scene before his eyes, and said to himself, "Why does Teresa's method feel like Pestoia? Is it a coincidence?"
For a time, the clues related to the brain were linked together.
He vaguely felt that he had guessed part of the truth of the matter.
But some places are contradicting each other, and it always doesn't feel right.
For example, the most crucial question, why did Sir Isaac burn his daughter?
Suddenly, an unbelievable guess appeared in his mind: "Or... the Pestoia I saw wasn't Ser Isaac's daughter at all? That's not it, who is it?"
The only certainty now is that there must be something wrong with the butterfly brooch.
Thoughts were still drifting in Su Lun's mind, at this time, Qianjo came from out of nowhere.
The only necessary part of the reception has ended, and there is no need for them to stay.
She greeted the two of Su Lun: "Let's go, we're going back too."
Saying that, Chijo also took Su Lun's arm naturally.
After the three of them left the manor, Reina asked, "Auntie, where do you and Mr. Zorro live?"
Chijo responded, "Rose Hotel."
Lena thought for a while, and seemed to have thought that the conditions of the Rose Hotel were not very good, so she warmly invited: "Oh, it just so happens that I have an vacant room there. Auntie come and stay with me~"
As he spoke, he said in a slightly coquettish tone, "It's been a long time since I talked to my aunt."
It's hard to find a room for others, and the silly girl of this landlord's family is still free.
"OK."
Qianjo listened, and naturally agreed.
The three of them walked all the way down.
"After drawing the 15th line, we will start the day after tomorrow at the latest. But we haven't recruited the hunting group and mercenaries yet."
"It's not a big problem. You will also dispatch the troops from the Crusades when the time comes. And Mr. Zorro will also go with him. He is very good. If you have any problems, you can just ask him."
"."
Su Lun listened to the conversation between the two women, but couldn't get in.
While walking, he was a little curious that this young woman who was addicted to gambling seemed to be used to this lady's dress, but didn't hear her complain?
After a while, they reached the "Unicorn Hotel".
Su Lun originally wanted to go back to the Rose Hotel to have a good rest, but Reina also invited him.
He didn't refuse and went upstairs.
This is a luxury hotel with exquisite decoration.
There are two suites on the top floor, and because the eldest Miss Reina lives there, no one else is arranged.
The suite was several times larger than the hotel room where Su Lun had stayed before, and it had a bathtub.
Chijo seemed very happy, and the two women occupied a room.
Su Lun went to another room.
The bed in the room was comfortable and soft to sit on.
Thinking about going to the wild, Su Lun also went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Facts have proved that inspirational thinking is the most active when people are taking a bath.
Su Lun had bubbles on his head, and when the hot water washed his head, it was like a weak current that stimulated his thoughts, and his senses became clearer.
On the way back, he kept thinking about the "butterfly brooch" in his mind.
I still don't think about it now, and I don't think much about it.
Then, he thought of Reina next door.
"Little Lena's situation is really bad. Listening to what she said, the branch families and the Oliver families in the inner city seem to be planning to completely boast about the long house this time. But her father can The inner city has such a large share of the foundation, there should be more than this means.”
Su Lun pondered in his heart.
Maybe the black tower is going to build the Reyes long house?
He knew that Qianjo was a member of the "Mirror Organization", and he also guessed that 80% of the Reyes family had something to do with the "Mirror".
But if this relationship is really discovered, it should be the umbrella organization that will do it.
Or, is it simply because the Duke's House does not want to see too large a consortium appear?
So, the uproar of Oliver's great family was acquiesced?
Thoughts were racing in Su Lun's mind.
The soundproofing of the room is very good, you can't hear the sound from next door.
But listening to the faint sound of water running in the wall, Su Lun also guessed that someone was taking a shower next door.
Probably a thousand.
Su Lun thought.
With a bathtub, the gambling-addicted young woman who likes to take a bath will probably take a good dip.
But suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in his mind.
"Huh! That's not right. Sister Qianjo has become a little strange since she left the manor."
Su Lun suddenly thought of something and frowned.
If it was in the old Lington before, he might not have noticed anything.
But recently, he and Qianjo have been together for so many days, and the temperament of that boss is already too familiar to him.
Before leaving the manor, although it looked like holding hands, it was still very intimate.
But Su Lun clearly noticed some subtle differences.
At this moment, with a flash of inspiration, he finally found out why he always felt almost something along the way.
Forget that soft touch!
The two were already well acquainted, and Chijo didn't shy away from Su Lun at all. On weekdays, her carefree personality would definitely stick to herself.
But just now, it has been maintaining a very rational distance.
"That 'Qianjo' just now, isn't Sister Qianjo?"
Su Lun thought of a possibility that shocked him.
But at the same time very suspicious.
"That's not right! Breath and body are exactly the same. It is absolutely impossible for Yi Rong to reach this level."
He is very confident, and his current perception is absolutely impossible to hold a fake Qianjo without being discovered.
Moreover, he felt that the strength of the gambling addict young woman has reached the fourth rank, and she will never be quietly replaced by others.
But suddenly the thought flashed.
Suddenly thinking of the bizarre appearance of the "butterfly brooch",
Or some special ability banned objects.
Not necessarily impossible!
"Special talent?"
Thinking of this, Su Lun was no longer calm.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the previous "Qianjo" was suspicious.
That's the difference in details that no one else can detect!
With this thought, the more out of control.
If it is as he expected, the problem will be huge!
Who would pretend to be Qianjo?
What clues did Heita find and determine her identity, so she came to fish?
It seems unlikely.
But with these thoughts together, Su Lun thought of too many strange things.
What if you think too much?
In order to clarify his guess, Su Lun intends to check the situation for himself.
