Chapter 165: Bungalows
"Do you have any ideas? Charlotte. Claire wanted to hear Charlotte's opinion first.
"My opinion is similar to theirs, could Gloria and Malthus really reveal the core of the Scourge so easily?" Charlotte first confirmed the disciples' speculation, but then changed her tone and said, "But then again, no matter what our opinion is, it is impossible to let go of this obvious anomaly, right?"
Claire laughed, the idea echoed him.
"I think so too. Whether it's a trick or a trap, or even if it's their mistake, we have to look into it. โ
"Ahh Even if this is part of the enemy's plan, in short, only a careful investigation can know the enemy's strategy through this clue, right?"
"That's right. Charlotte nodded, "Do they want to delay time with a trick, or do they have other plans? Only by following this clue can it be possible to figure out the psychology of the enemy." Anyway, it's better than swaying around the area like a headless fly. โ
None of them had any objection to this, and in order to increase efficiency, the five planned to split up.
"Charlotte and I are acting alone, you are in groups of three, and Quinn and Elle are in charge of protecting you. Remember, don't be reckless in case of danger, and contact us as soon as possible. The other side is Malthus, Gloria, and Willett, and they are powerful characters that even Charlotte and I have to work hard to deal with, so don't mess around. โ
"Yes!"
"And you!" Charlotte pointed at Elle uncomfortably, "I'm most worried about you, remember not to mess around!"
"Really, you don't have to worry about me!" Elle had a proud expression that really couldn't help you, "You better worry about yourself more!"
"Stupid, I didn't worry about you! I mean tell you not to be greedy and act on your own, and protect them for me seriouslyโ"
"Wow, don't you even care about me, what a cruel and unscrupulous fellow!"
"They can't hurt you at all!"
"I don't care! You're cruel!"
"Please, Claire, it's okay to call me Quinn, but please don't arrange for me to act with this stupid young girl. โ
"Who do you think is stupid!
Quinn's relief of the human suffering scepter had a troubled expression.
The stupid young girl ran into the chatter scepter, and the two of their kind, protecting Leonard and the others, walked noisily all the way to the east. Charlotte shrugged at Claire, and the two shook their heads helplessly, and each headed towards the end of town.
Charlotte and Claire were uneventful, except for the occasional encounter with a few beasts that broke into the town and incapacitated undead, but Leonard's team had an unexpected gain.
Passing by a mansion east of town, Quinn abruptly stopped arguing with Elle, the face relief statue engraved on the scepter listening to something.
His willingness to stop arguing relieved the trio, and along the way, even the most popular Lolita was distracted by their quarrels. At this moment, they were finally cleaned, and the three of them actually had a sense of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.
But Elle didn't give in, "What's the matter? I have nothing to say? Hmph! The stupid person who can't argue is the real big stupid!"
She turned the word 'stupid' over and over again, and the lack of words in her quarrel was simply tearful to those who heard it and sad to see it. The face on Quinn's scepter rolled its eyes with a look of disgust.
"Please, take a good look and see if there's anything wrong, okay?"
Hearing this, Elle was stunned, and then she also pricked up her ears and sensed it with her heart.
She and Quinn belong to the same root artifact, and in terms of sensitivity to breath, it can be said that she is second only to kings and gods. Although his ability to sense necromancy and spells is not as good as Quinn's, he immediately feels a trace of abnormality when he gets serious.
Elle's 'ah' life, she pointed to the mansion and said, "There's a weak undead in there!"
These words did not attract the attention of the three of them, after all, they had seen the weak undead more than once along the way. It's really weak, either a broken leg or a waist cut, in short, a walking corpse that lacks mobility and is almost no threat.
"She was wrong. Quinn rolled his eyes again, "Although I am very weak compared to Al and I, I am much stronger than those incomplete walking corpses! Really, I don't know how that Charlotte guy can stand you!"
Quinn finally complained, and if it weren't for the novelty of the events that piqued Elle's interest, it would have almost started another war.
However, on the premise of something of interest, Elle, who is like a child, is always so easily distracted. But this is somewhat forgivable, after all, if what she said back then was true, then according to her age after being awakened, she is indeed only about 13 years old this year.
Elle flew into the mansion with a swoop, completely forgetting Charlotte's advice, and Vivien and Lolita looked at each other in surprise, shrugged their shoulders, and followed towards the mansion.
It was a three-storey bungalow with a garden courtyard, and the door was closed, and judging by the broken windowpanes, it should have been uninhabited for a long time.
Impatient, Al flew in through the broken window, and Leonard and the others entered through the main entrance, and with a convenient lockpick, the heavy door of the bungalow opened.
In just a few days, a thin layer of dust was covered inside. The candlesticks were scattered on the ground, and the white precious candles fell on the carpet and split in half, judging from the situation at the scene, the owner of the house must have rushed out of the bungalow in the daytime, and he should not have been killed in the process.
Once inside, the hall is furnished with a circular sofa flanked by a hollow-shaped staircase leading to the upper floor. There is a wooden door at the front of the hall, and there are corridors on each side leading to the other place. Just as the group was about to look for Elle, a slight sound came into Lolita's ears.
Lolita's physical fitness was the best of the bunch, and she was the first to hear the voice, and she raised her index finger in a silencing motion, "Shhhh โ
Vivien cast a change spell on everyone to increase their hearing, and the originally indistinct sound came clearly into everyone's ears.
After the three young men looked at each other and confirmed from Quinn that they did not sense any more danger for the time being, Leonard walked to the front with his scepter.
They walked through the wooden door behind the sofa and through a long corridor to the kitchen of the bungalow. Now the sound became clearer, and it sounded like it was coming from a miscellaneous room behind the kitchen.
A few people opened the door of the miscellaneous house, and at a glance they saw a staircase that stretched down. Leonard threw out his magic light, and soon, a soft glow illuminated the dim path.
At the end of that was an arched wooden door, the wooden door was open, and without thinking, Elle had entered the basement.
After reconfirming with Quinn that he didn't sense danger, Leonard and the others decided to go into the basement to find out.
