"The matter is not over yet," Bismarck said. "William III's wife, the gentle Queen Edra, is also a devout believer of the Illuminati Church like Queen Lofister. After learning about what her husband had done, she accused William III of being despicable deeds, and claimed that this was the 'misfortune' that the Church of Light had prophesied."

"Ha, it sounds quite reasonable." Li Zheng replied: "This kind of visual sense of ancient Greek mythology."

Bismarck shot him sideways and unsealed the next stained-glass window.This time the content looked very scary.A beautiful and dignified woman was put on a beheading frame by several strong men.On the other side, the king sitting on a high place looks at the woman before execution with an expression of indifference that can be seen even through rough lines.

"Queen Edra was accused of heresy." Bismarck explained: "He was sentenced to beheading. All this is just the beginning. Some veterans and famous swordsmen who firmly supported the Illuminati Church were repeatedly subjected to the same punishment. Others Imprisoned in a dungeon, suffering horrific torture, it is difficult to see the light of day again."

"Elimination of dissidents, hegemony. Understood." Li Zheng nodded.It seems that whether it is the earth or the twin continents, there are always some historical events that are surprisingly similar.

The stained glass of the promenade ends here.Li Zheng gave a puzzled "Hey", quite puzzled: "Why is there nothing later? How did William III die?"

"There are rumors that he will die alone, and no one knows where he was buried." Bismarck returned the purple smoke in his hand to Li Zheng.Li Zheng took the sword, still a little strange: "Rumors? How can there be only rumors about the death of a king?"

Bismarck shrugged: "Who knows. It's really not clear."

Li Zheng had no choice but to let go of the doubts in his heart, and he was quite dissatisfied: "Why is this story so anticlimactic? Can I apply for a refund if it's unfinished? It's really angry."

At the end of the corridor is a door.Although the paint on this door has faded, it cannot hide its magnificence.Li Zheng glanced at it twice, and naturally had a guess: "Could this be William III's room?"

Bismarck nodded, then stretched out a hand to hold the doorknob, and slowly opened the door.

There was a "creaking" sound from the door that had been neglected for many years.Li Zheng quickly covered his mouth and nose with his hands to prevent the dust from getting into his nasal cavity again.

The room had no windows and was almost airtight.Only a faint light from the door could come in.Bismarck took a look at the oil lamp, then reached into his pocket and rummaged through it, and found a box of matches.He held the staff between his shoulders, and then used his slender fingers to stroke the match lightly, drawing a flame and lighting the oil lamp.

The scene of the room was as expected by the two, the severely dusty king's bedroom was full of cobwebs.The room is large, but there are broken vases, leaking wallpaper, and cracked cabinets everywhere.

Li Zheng looked around boredly, his mouth crooked.He followed Bismarck, and seeing that he had no intention of leaving at all, he asked aloud, "Isn't there nothing here?"

Bismarck's originally expressionless face suddenly frowned.After hearing Li Zheng's words, he put his index finger on his upper and lower lips, and made a "silence" gesture to Li Zheng.Then he stuck it to Li Zheng's ear and whispered, "There are people here. I can feel that someone is affecting my spiritual power."

Li Zheng's eyes widened, and he thought to himself, buddy, can you still feel it when your mental power is empty? You really deserve to be a mage who is particularly sensitive to mental power.But obviously there is a more critical question now. He whispered to Bismarck with the same volume: "Is there someone? Didn't you say that there are no zombies or people here everywhere in the dust?"

Bismarck nodded: "At first I really thought there was no one there. But as soon as I entered this room, I felt different. Maybe...the place we entered is not the only entrance to this castle."

Li Zheng made an "oh" mouth clearly: "Then will we reveal our whereabouts? Who is the other party? Will he attack us? Is it an enemy or a friend?"

Bismarck's brows did not loosen, he shook his head: "My mental power is very weak now, you...although it should not be said that you have no mental power...in short, you should not be discovered by the other party. As for the other party Who it is...hasn't been determined yet."

"So are we going to find out their location now? Or withdraw?" Li Zheng asked, and then made his own analysis: "The forest and the fog outside are so weird, maybe that person knows something. I think It’s better to find that person first.”

Bismarck lowered his head and thought about it, and agreed to Li Zheng's proposal: "It is true. But it may be dangerous. You..."

"What are you... We've been together for so long, can't you see who I am? Don't you think I'm going to be scared?" Li Zheng patted Bismarck on the back with a look of disdain .

Bismarck nodded, then he raised his staff and closed his eyes.

After a long time, drops of sweat began to drip from Bismarck's temples.Li Zheng frowned and just wanted to wipe it off for him, when he opened his eyes and stared at the side of the room.

Li Zheng followed Bismarck's line of sight and saw that it was a huge fireplace.The fireplace was embedded in the wall, and there were cracks everywhere, making it look extremely hideous.

Bismarck stepped forward and walked towards the fireplace.

In front of the fireplace, Bismarck stopped and squatted down.It was only when Li Zheng followed that he realized that the interior of the fireplace was completely different from the dust accumulation in other places in the room.The inside of the fireplace, which was obviously covered with cracks on the outside, was spotless, not even a residue of charcoal fire.This made the area on the inside of the fireplace seem out of place.

Bismarck stretched out his hand and gently pressed the bottom of the fireplace.I saw a small door gradually opened in the inner side of the fireplace with the pressure of Bismarck's men.The small door was extremely narrow, just big enough for a person to pass through.

When Li Zheng saw such a secret door, he was really surprised and couldn't say anything.I really didn't expect that there is such a hidden secret passage here, it is worthy of the king's bedroom.

But he also felt strange at the same time.

——If the person Bismarck mentioned entered the secret passage through this secret door, how can he enter and exit the secret door without leaving any traces?

Li Zheng saw that Bismarck in front had slipped through the secret door, so he had to let go of his doubts and followed.

After the two entered the secret door, they found that the inside of the secret door was a narrow and long passage, almost a road leading to the dark, with no forks in sight.The damp smell permeated the entire passage, making Li Zheng feel the decay of this passage.

The entire dark passage was illuminated by faint oil lamps on both sides.Li Zheng glanced sideways at the oil lamp, feeling somewhat clear in his heart.The oil lamp had obviously just been replaced.So, someone has indeed been in and out of here recently.

There was still no sound under the feet of Bismarck in front.Li Zheng followed behind him with light footsteps.Not long after, a tiny dark room appeared in front of the two of them.

Bismarck tapped the door of the dark room lightly with his staff, then turned to Li Zheng and said, "There should be no one inside." After speaking, he opened the door with force.

The entire dark room appeared in front of the two of them, and there was no one there.There are magic circles everywhere on the walls of the dark room, giving people an overwhelming sense of oppression.Without exception, these magic circles were all red and black, which made Li Zheng feel bad.He sniffed a small magic circle next to him.

——Sure enough, it was painted with blood.

Bismarck seemed to see Li Zheng's doubts and panic, and he explained: "It is indeed blood, but the magic circle mostly uses dog blood or chicken blood."

This made Li Zheng feel a lot better.But the next sentence made Li Zheng worry again.

"I'm more concerned about these magic circles—these seem to be the magic circles of the dark mage."

Mom, dark mage, just hearing this name gives me an ominous premonition.Li Zheng trembled all over: "What is a dark mage..."

"One of the mages." Bismarck replied so simply, there seemed to be no desire to continue.He ignored Li Zheng, whose mind was still full of question marks, and walked forward on his own.

This dark room is obviously a place similar to a laboratory.Li Zheng could even see books and experimental equipment spread out on the desk in the dark room.And those containers that looked like measuring cups or conical cups contained an unknown purple liquid.

Li Zheng saw that Bismarck went straight to the desk, so he didn't follow.Instead, he turned in a different direction and walked towards the bookshelf beside him.

But soon he regretted it, because he found that most of the books in these bookshelves were as thick as Chinese dictionaries on earth.Moreover, the cover is dark, and most of the titles are full of ominous things—for example, the "Traces of Demons" on his left, and the "Secret Technique Lost in Raffles—Soul Refining Formation" on his right, And a copy of "Advanced Dark Magic" above his head.

It seems that if the owner of this dark room knows that the two of them came uninvited, it will be difficult to deal with... Li Zheng couldn't help biting his finger, thinking secretly.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a book in a pile of dark book covers that was bright pale yellow.Li Zheng was a little surprised, and without hesitation, he reached out and took out the completely different book.

Perhaps this should be called a notebook better.There are no extra words on the light yellow book cover, only a row of indented cursive characters.

—To dear Daisy.

In other words, this is Daisy's notebook?Li Zheng understood, and couldn't wait to open the cover.

"This is a gift from Ms. Daisy Franklin, a swordsman from the Northern Continent, from her beloved sister Canruila. If you find it in the wild, please return it to the famous black mercenary group in Raffles City." Daisy Franklin in the lion group. If Miss Daisy goes out and is not in the group, I hope you can return it to any warrior in the group."
