Gold is Justice

In the end, Brad even simply extinguished the torch in his hand, only relying on these brilliant and warm lights to lead the team forward.

Dead spiders, ashes of plants.In addition, there are all kinds of sundries that were originally placed in this castle.

The murals on the walls were already so mottled that it was impossible to tell what they were painted on, and the vases beside the corridor had already been broken, turning black charcoal from the flames.

Pushing open a crumbling door, what you can see is a room full of completely steamed spider eggs.Brad poked it with a hammer, and these spider eggs solidified into a ball like a hard-boiled egg, and it was impossible to find any breath of living things inside.

"Um……"

Ke Ke saw that Ai Luo was staring at these spider eggs, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous: "Brother President! Do you... don't you want to take these spider eggs back and make dinner? Let me declare in advance! Regardless of the elder brother How delicious it is, I will never eat it!"

Ai Luo turned his head away, and looked at the necromancer with a very helpless look: "Ke Ke, don't you feel that...the number of times you propose to eat monsters is getting more and more?"

Ke Ke blushed, and immediately pulled up the cloak to cover her face, and stopped talking.

Airl also stopped teasing Ke Ke, and continued: "I want to find out if the bodies of the two soldiers are there. But I guess it's a bit difficult. These rotting poisonous spiders can corrode flesh, and even bones seem to be corroded. In addition to this big fire, the clothes and so on should have been burned... However, everyone should pay attention to it, and try to look for it if you can find it."

With Airl's instructions, Brad nodded immediately.He stepped forward, using the shield as a shovel, and began to shovel away the condensed spider eggs in large chunks.

There is no room in this room, so continue to the next room.

In this way, everyone cleaned up, searched, and climbed towards the top of the castle.The trip was so uneventful that it really made Arrow feel like he was cleaning up trash.

But this is also good, safe, better than anything else.

In this way, everyone came to the top of the castle.The first thing that comes into view is the passage leading to the observation deck.Sure enough, only some smaller poisonous poisonous spiders were allowed to pass through the narrow space.

Arrow climbed up and had to say that the scenery on the observation deck was really good.The entire Pelican Town has a panoramic view, and the shining forest in the east also gives people a pleasant green.Moreover, the entrance to the mine on the Long Sleeping Mountain Range can be clearly seen in the distance.As a place to supervise, it is really worth the money.

After appreciating the scenery, Airl went down from the observation deck, and after all the members of his family went up to admire them, they continued to go to another place at the top of the castle.

There, is a door.

A gate carved from two stones should have fine wood carvings or gold decorations, but it has disappeared under the erosion of flames and years, leaving only two ugly and dirty stone gates .Cream stepped forward and knocked on the stone door slightly. He listened on it for a while with his ears pricked up, and said, "It's not very thick, but this kind of stone door is a bit unimaginable. Be careful, there may be some monsters behind it."

Airl nodded, and everyone who had relaxed a little earlier became vigilant again.

Brad took a deep breath, raised his shield to cover his throat and the lower half of his face, pressed the hammer against the stone door on the right side, and pushed gently...

With a creak, the stone door opened.

What followed was a ray of light that rushed into everyone's eyes.

This is a very delicately decorated room. Although it looks a bit dilapidated under the erosion of the years, you can still vaguely see the wealth and authority of the owner here when Pelican Town was in its prime.

The room of about [-] square meters is spacious and bright, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows allow the sunlight to fill it, making it a "light room".

Myths and legends are painted with beautiful oil paints on the screen that has been slightly corroded by the years, and the large and large certificates of commendation on the wall highlight the glorious past of the owner of this place.

The gorgeous and spacious sofa and coffee table, as well as the exquisite tea set on the coffee table, which can almost be called an antique, show the taste of the owner.The sword and shield decoration hanging on the other wall brings a little mighty momentum.

But what bothered Airl the most was not how intact the room was under the raging fire.It was on the big bed with a Roman gauze cover.

"Brother President, why don't you come and take a look?"

Coco walked to the side of the big bed, frowned, and motioned to Airl.

In the innermost part of the room, behind the luxurious screen.The gauze cover of the Roman gauze bed has long been corroded by time into silk threads.

But when Arrow walked around the screen and saw with his own eyes what was lying on the bed...

Involuntarily, the chairman could no longer force a calm smile.

Two people... More precisely, two corpses lying on the bed.

It was none other than the two fighters who came to the Mermaid Song Guild to inquire about news that day.

Chapter 71 The Dead

They died here... But they died in a very peaceful posture, lying flat on this big bed with their hands folded in front of their chests.

But contrary to their peaceful movements, their expressions were extremely distorted, as if they had seen something very terrifying.

The sword warrior's mouth was wide open, and his jaw was pulled down by some force, which made his mouth look huge compared to his entire face.His tongue was bitten into pieces, broken in his mouth section by section, and his teeth were covered with blood that had already solidified, apparently he himself bit his tongue into pieces .

The spear warrior on the side didn't feel much better, both of his eyes stared out of their sockets, and the shriveled eyeballs hung on his face, connected only by a little tendon at the back.

Brad, Buffy, and Cream also came over, and after seeing the death of the two soldiers, they all leaned back slightly.Arriving here, Airl was a little surprised at Coco's calmness.Perhaps this also comes from the advantages of the Necromancer.

"When did they die?"

Airl asked.

Cream frowned, resisting the discomfort in his heart, and walked forward, inspected the two corpses slightly, and shook his head: "I don't know, logically speaking, there should be flies and insects after being dead for so long, but these two corpses But it looks very clean. It has been eight or nine days since they entered this castle? I don’t think they can survive in this castle full of rotting poisonous spiders without going out for eight or nine days.”

Airl frowned, stepped forward and fumbled on the gun warrior's clothes.Soon, he took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, opened it, and there were four golden coins in it.

Airl checked the gold coin, pocketed it, and checked the body again.He waited until he was sure there was nothing else before checking the sword warrior.

The sword warrior didn't have much, just a notebook, a knife, and a few pieces of dry food.

However, the therapeutic aerosol was not touched.

In other words, they were injured, so the therapeutic aerosol was used?

But after the inspection, there were no wounds on the two corpses, and the armor on their bodies was also very clean and tidy, with no signs of being torn.

In other words, how these two soldiers died and what they experienced before they died is completely a mystery.

"Phew... everyone spread out and search to see if there are any other clues in this room."

Everyone curled their lips and dispersed to find the answer.After taking one last glance at the two bodies, Arrow walked toward the fireplace of the room.

The fireplace looked very thick, and the bonfire inside had been piled up for an unknown number of years.

But above the fireplace is a huge oil painting, which should be a family of three.

A man in his thirties who looked energetic, with a mustache and a medal on his shoulder was very eye-catching.That luxurious decoration also highlighted his noble status.

The man has a rather handsome and upright face, but... there is one thing that makes Airl very uncomfortable to look at.

The man's mouth was parted with a smile.

Not that kind of joyful smile, but more like a kind of smile with a hint of madness?

This big split mouth and the fully turned out teeth are so discordant, especially in stark contrast to the man's very capable eyes.

The other two people in the portrait are two women, one big and one small. A lady-like woman who is nearly thirty years old is sitting on a chair, holding an umbrella in her hand. She wears a gorgeous long skirt and fine sand Gloves represent her noble status.

The daughter is about ten years old, which is the most innocent age. She and her mother are wearing long skirts of the same color and standing in front of their parents, looking forward to their bright future.

But... Airl couldn't see the faces of the two women.

More precisely, the faces of the two women were all melted and distorted like burnt candles.If I had to say it, I could only vaguely see two black holes on that face, and a mouth stretched into a long strip, as if screaming.

Such a portrait made Ai Luo feel more and more uncomfortable the more he looked at it, he shook his head, and stopped observing at all, just looked down at the label under the portrait——

Baron Sabu Kesu with his wife Lady Anve and daughter Miss Nellie. "

Just when Airl shook his head and was about to turn around and leave, this label unexpectedly caught Airl's attention under the reflection of the sun.

He reached out and broke off the label with a little force, and soon he noticed the reason why this thing attracted him.

"What do you want to tell me?what do you need me for?No, I won't do that! "

"what?"

These inexplicable words are engraved on the label, and under the bronzing words, they seem to have been dug out bit by bit with claws.

Arrow shook his head and put the tag back.At this moment, Brad behind him opened the drawer and took out a diary from it.

"President, how do you look at this?"

After taking the diary, Airl opened it and glanced at it.He nodded and said, "So that's it. It seems that this Baron Sabu Kesu is the last supervisory official of Gangshibao."

The crowd gathered around, wanting to hear the story that Airl told.

Ai Luo glanced at the diary quickly, and continued: "This diary should belong to that Miss Nali, and it is used to record daily routines. Judging from the notes, there are two kinds of handwriting, it should be that mother Ann. Ms. Fu will write something on it too."

"This diary records that their family was ordered to come to Pelican Town to replace the previous supervisor who died mysteriously. On the one hand, they had to supervise the mine, and on the other hand, they also wanted to investigate the truth about the death of the previous supervisor."

"However, the investigation has not made much progress. On the contrary, the output of iron ore is getting less and less, so the supervision of the mine has gradually become nameless."

"Well, it is recorded here that Baron Sabu is becoming more and more manic. He is under a lot of pressure because of the output of the mine, and he is unable to make a deal with the empire. On the other hand, they also received news that the empire intends to cancel the development of the mine. , the same is tantamount to revoking the position of Baron Sabu. And Baron Sabu originally received the title of nobility from an ordinary general because of his hard work and loyalty to the empire, so that he can come here as a supervisor."

"However, if this position is revoked, it is equivalent to revoking his title of nobility, depriving him of the glory and status he had so hard to get. Therefore, Baron Sabu seems to have gone crazy during this period of time, hoping to be able to come out of the mine again. Iron ore was mined. Unfortunately, things backfired.”

"Here, here is the diary of the last day."

"April 4, sunny, we packed up our things and prepared to get on the carriage and leave this place. Dad told me that we will go to a better place in the future, and our life will become better and better, so, I believe Dad .”

On the last page of the diary, there is such a simple sentence, which is slightly different from the previous ones that describe in detail what the mother and daughter are thinking.

Arrow turned the diary to the front again, and he only glanced at it briefly, but didn't check it carefully.Since this diary contains information about the mine, take it home and read it carefully.

"Anything else?"

After putting away the diary, Airl asked again.

Seeing everyone shaking their heads, Airl could only sigh, and said, "Well... at least our job is to clean up this ancient castle. Now that the task is completed, there is no point in staying any longer. Hmm... As for the two Well……"

Airl frowned, looked at the two corpses on the bed over there, and after thinking for a while, he could only shake his head: "We can't leave the two corpses in the client's castle. Besides, these two are considered I have registered with my guild, and I will try to give them the last decency I can. How about it, Brad, Cream, you two should each carry one, take it out, and find a place to bury it."

Brad snorted, and stepped forward to pick up the sword warrior's body.But Cream frowned, endured the disgust in his heart and walked over, carrying the spear warrior's body on his back.But just as he was reciting his back, the two eyeballs suddenly drooped and swayed on his shoulders.

"No, no, no, no! I...I really can't bear it, I'm sorry, but I really can't do this!"

Since cream was useless, Airl could only turn his gaze to Coco next to him.

After all, the necromancer was in a better mental state when facing the dead. Although he felt a little disgusted, he still let his undead soldiers step forward and carry the corpse on his back.

"Xiaobai, I will find a way to give you a bath after I go back, so now, please bear with me, okay?"

Ke Ke said a few words softly, but the skeleton dog beside him was still barking excitedly around his master.Arrow shrugged and turned to the exit, followed by the others.

However, when Airl came to this stone door again...

"It's so cool! "

"Yeah, it's a bit too cold, I want to be warmer, I can barely feel the cold. "

Such dialogue-like words are engraved on the back of this stone gate.

Moreover, just like the writing that Airl had seen just now, the writing looked crooked and there was nothing elegant about it.But more importantly...
