Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 810 Nightmare Orphanage

Floyd's former residence is in the depths of Thyssen Lane.

Angel looked into the alley, it was clearly broad daylight, this not-so-narrow alley was very deserted, and no one was seen.

Angel took out a gold coin from his pocket and threw it to the young boy who led the way.

The young boy was the guy who came to beg for a living when they saw that they were foreigners after they entered Bolai Town.Judging from his clothes, he should be from a poor family.

Angor originally planned to let Frod come out to lead the way, but after thinking about it, he might as well go and see the situation first.So he hired the young man in front of him to guide him.

After paying the salary, Angel prepared to send the boy away.

However, after receiving the full amount of gold coins, the boy's eyes showed joy.It was the first time for the boy to meet such a generous foreign visitor.He originally planned to take the money and leave, but the other party gave such a large amount, he hesitated for a moment, and stopped Angel: "Sir, the residents of Thyssen Lane have been completely evacuated recently, if you are looking for someone , it is best to go to the civil affairs department to check."

"Empty?" Angel's footsteps, which had already been walking in, suddenly stopped.

Angel looked at the other party curiously: "Why did you evacuate?"

"This..." The young man hesitated for a moment, glanced at the wealth in his hand that was enough to provide him with food and clothing for a year, and said, "The mayor has issued a secret order to the insider. However, for the sake of your generosity, , I can quietly tell the adults."

After the young man finished speaking, he looked around to make sure that there was no one around, and then he said in a low voice: "Actually, I don't know much. I heard these from some drinkers. By the way, my name is Song , working as a bartender at Bailang Tavern at night."

After Song introduced himself, he began to tell the story of why Thyssen Lane was evacuated.

There is an abandoned orphanage at the end of Thyssen Lane. No one usually enters it. It was included in the later construction plan by the mayor of the town, but because of funding problems and the remote location, construction has been delayed and not started.If it is delayed, it will be more than ten years.Originally, there was nothing unusual about the orphanage, but it was suddenly included in the construction project two years ago, and a construction team began to investigate the orphanage.

After this exploration, the accident came out.

"You said the orphanage is haunted?" Angel asked with raised eyebrows.

Song nodded: "Absolutely. Although I haven't experienced it myself, those drinkers are convincing. I heard that the people in the construction team saw the shadows of evil spirits. They were all scary ghost babies... and they died. There were a lot of people. Later, nearby residents could hear the voices of children from the orphanage from time to time at night, so in order to save their lives, people in Thyssen Lane moved out one after another. Today, this alley is almost Abandoned, even homeless people don't want to live there."

Angel said "Oh" and touched his chin: Frode said before that he used to live in an orphanage.

If there is no accident, it is probably the orphanage Song mentioned.

"Is it gone?" Seeing that Song hadn't left, Angel asked politely.

Song shook his head in a daze: "It's gone."

"If there is no more, then I will take my leave. Thank you for telling the story, the story is very interesting." Angel narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly.By the way, he rubbed his loose hair, turned and left.

Before Song had time to flatten his hair, seeing that Angel was still going in, he hurriedly said, "Sir, are you still going to Thyssen Lane? Don't tell me... aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid of many things, but I'm not afraid of evil spirits." Angel didn't pause, and continued to walk deep into Thyssen Lane, but his voice sounded steadily into Song's ears.

Song was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Angel meant.But seeing the figures of Angor and Dulu walking further and further away, Song took off his somewhat worn-out hat, and gave Angor a hat pull ceremony from a distance.Then, turn around and walk towards the town center.

Halfway there, he suddenly remembered one more thing about Thyssen Lane.

Half a year ago, the Royal Knights of the Central Empire came to Bolai Town, and it was said that they were going to deal with the haunted orphanage in Thyssen Lane.However, it seemed that they withdrew immediately?He couldn't remember either.

Song thought to himself in a low voice: "This matter shouldn't be too important, it doesn't matter if you say it or not... Besides, that adult shouldn't go to the orphanage desperately, right?"

At this time, Angel was standing in front of a rusty curved iron gate.

On the wall next to the iron gate, there was a crumbling iron plate, and Angel reached out to wipe off part of the dust on the dusty iron plate.

The dust fell, and a row of gray characters on a black background appeared in the center of the iron plate.

The first word has been completely rusted, and the back is "Dream Orphanage".

This orphanage should be where Floyd once stayed.However, according to Frode, he is not an orphan. The reason why he once lived here is just because his father is the director of this orphanage.

"Lord Pat, what are you doing here?" Dulu curiously looked into the orphanage through the crack of the fence door.

There is smoke and weeds, and there is a backlog of dust everywhere.

The trees that hadn't been pruned grew extremely lush, blocking out all the sunlight, making the entire orphanage look a bit dark even in the daytime.

The wooden horses and slides that children play on are also covered by dirt.The building in the distance is pitch-black, with mottled green algae on the walls.

"I'm here to find something." Angel did not hide anything. Although the dream conch is a mysterious item, its actual value is not high. Only 30 magic crystals were sold at the sky auction more than [-] years ago.When he said it openly, Angel didn't think anyone would snatch it from him.

After all, from the current point of view, his own value is far greater than that of Meng Conch.

Du Lu let out an "Oh", and did not continue to ask further questions, but obediently followed behind Angel.He also noticed the iron plate on the wall at this time: "Hey, this should be the name of the orphanage, but there is a word missing, what is Dream Orphanage? Sweet Dream Orphanage, or Fantasy Orphanage?"

Angel stretched out his hand, pushed open the unlocked iron gate, and responded to Du Lu's doubts as he walked in.

"The name of the orphanage is called Dream." Angel recalled what Frod said before: "However, before the orphanage was abandoned, the dean called it Dream Orphanage, but the orphanage People call it the... Nightmare Orphanage."

"Nightmare Orphanage. It sounds like a lot of resentment." Du Lu frowned, feeling an inexplicable disgust for this title.

"There is a lot of resentment, and many people died. However, the world is like this, where there is sunshine, there is darkness. Under the beautiful picture scroll, there must be malicious shadows." Angel sighed softly, and compared Compared with Du Lu, he knew more about the Nightmare Orphanage, and he also felt that human nature was unpredictable.

The two of them stepped into the grassy land one after the other.

As soon as Du Lu stood under the shade of the tree, he felt a cold air around him, and shivered unconsciously.

"My lord, it seems that this place has been abandoned for a long time. Is there really the evil spirit that the boy just said inside?"

Angel closed his eyes and felt for a moment: "Although there is a bit of residual coldness, I don't feel any malice. Even if there is a soul, it probably hasn't fallen yet."

"That's good, that's good." Dulu relaxed a little when he heard the news.

Angel added, "Even if you didn't degenerate into an undead, the soul body itself can do evil. Maybe the construction workers Song mentioned were killed by the souls here."

When Du Lu heard this, he became a little scared again.His whole body shook, and a thin mist of water covered his body.

"Your water mist is just pure water mist and poses no threat. It can neither be used as a weapon nor used for defense. Are you releasing it to scare evil spirits?" Angor glanced at it and joked.

Du Lu nodded furiously: "Just to scare and tell those who are spying on me... I'm not easy to mess with."

Angor laughed for a while, and didn't judge Dulu's behavior good or bad.However, Dulu was able to go from a small piece of water mist to a water mist covering the entire upper body in a short period of time, which shows that he has a strong control over the water system.

And this was done before Dulu became an apprentice, which is evident from his water talent.

Soon, they came to the small building of the orphanage.The three-story building continues the usual style of Bolai Town, but it is not as bright and elegant as the buildings outside, and it is a bit more gloomy.

While Du Lu was still hesitating whether to step in, Angel had already stepped into it.

Du Lu could only follow.

The corridor was very dark, and Dulu took out the fluorite lighting, but the green light of the fluorite made the corridor full of dust and cobwebs even more eerie.

"My lord, where are you going now?" Du Lu asked tremblingly.

"basement."

Angor came to the utility room behind the stairs according to the position guided by Frode.As soon as the door was opened, dust flew out.

"Didn't you mean to go to the basement? Why did you come to the utility room?" Dulu asked, holding up the fluorite and looking at the small compartment full of various messy items.

Angel did not answer, but frowned and remained silent for a long time.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

"Someone seems to have been here recently." Angel was silent for a moment, "There was too little dust flying out just now, and look behind you..."

Following Angel's instructions, Du Lu looked back.

Immediately met a cold eye.Du Lu's heart skipped a beat, he took several steps back, and finally couldn't hold back, and fell to the ground.

Angel was speechless: "A doll can scare you, you don't want to be in the wizarding world if you are so cowardly."

It was only then that Du Lu noticed that the person staring at him was a doll in a red dress placed on a pile of garbage.However, under the faint green light, the doll's grinning face looked a little sinister and hideous.

Du Lu swallowed his saliva: "Uh, I didn't pay attention just now, and I will definitely not next time."

Angor didn't bother to pay attention to Dulu's assurance, and pointed to the doll and said, "The dust on the doll's coat is obviously different. Someone has touched this doll."

Angel said while picking up the doll.

A dusty wall lamp on the wall behind the doll was exposed. He turned the handle of the wall lamp casually, only to hear a click sound, and a dark hole was exposed on the floor beside Dulu.

"Below is the basement..." Angel pondered.

According to Frode, he kept the dream conch in the basement.But recently, someone actually went to the basement, would anyone else know about Meng Conch?
Angel walked with doubts, and stepped up the dark stairs that could not be seen at the bottom.
