This ancient and dilapidated courtyard was a little bigger than Chu Ge remembered.

When he came here in his previous life, he was too injured to approach the courtyard, but waited outside from a distance, until Baron Said, Karina and others destroyed the reinforcement hidden inside, and then went back together.

According to Karina in her previous life, it was through interrogation of the captured thieves in the woodland that they learned by chance that there was a special core circle hidden in the basement, and the effect was to resurrect the walking corpses.

During this period of rumor, this dilapidated house must have been carefully searched by the guards, after all, it is quite suspicious no matter how you look at it, but there must be a special reason why the magic circle device was not discovered by them.

After approaching the courtyard, Chu Ge pushed the rusty iron fence hard, because the old lock on the iron gate had been cut not long ago, so it didn't take too much effort to push the iron fence open.

Amid the creaking sound of the iron door, Chu Ge quietly looked around, glanced behind him without a trace, and strode forward.

Inside the courtyard is a small garden, which has been abandoned for many years because it has been unmanaged, but the flowers that grow in it are still blooming proudly, not only do not have any sense of clutter, but give birth to a strange beauty.

The path leading from the gate to the mansion was only a narrow path, and it had been forcibly trampled on by a sword not long ago.

Just after Chu Ge passed through the courtyard, a short shadow suddenly appeared from behind the big tree in the courtyard, and after staring at the location where Chu Ge disappeared for a few seconds, he quietly followed against the wall.

The walls of the mansion have been eroded by time, and the white paint has been covered with a dark dark gray, which does not make people feel the vicissitudes of life, only dead silence and decline.

What is it that led to the complete abandonment of such a mansion? And its owner, what has happened?

Chu Ge shook his head and dispelled the distracting thoughts in his heart, there may really be some secrets hidden in this mansion, but his immediate priority is to destroy the core of its magic circle and reduce the danger of tomorrow's action as much as possible.

If time permits, it might be a good idea to explore it carefully.

After pushing open the delicate and dusty wooden door, Chu Ge stepped into the living room of the house, and the afterglow of the setting sun outside seemed to only illuminate half of the living room through the doors and windows, and the remaining half was silent in the shadow of decay.

The moment he broke away from the sunlight, an inexplicable chill suddenly hit Chu Ge's heart.

The disgusting sensation didn't last long, it was swallowed by the heart of Nervemore on his chest, leaving only a chilling effect in his body.

"This familiar feeling...... Which guy left it? ”

Feeling this long-lost aura, a trace of doubt flashed in Chu Ge's eyes, and his face did not show any look of resistance.

Others may hate this feeling, but it is nothing to him, not only will he not be disgusted, but he will have a sense of peace of mind when he arrives at his home.

[Shadow is summoning......]

This aura that permeates the mansion may be the reason why the guards don't want to stay here for too long.

As long as you are a normal person, you will subconsciously reject this decay and decay - and at the same time, you will involuntarily ignore it under some hint.

He took a deep breath and headed deeper into the room.

Although it has been eroded over the years, the interior of the house is still very strong, and it can be seen that it was built with a lot of effort, and the wooden floor has not been damaged, and it will not make any noise when stepping on it.

After passing through the living room, Chu Ge reached the deepest part of the room, and in front of him was a closed small door, and on either side of the small door were stairs leading to the basement and the second floor of the house.

The windows on the upper floors seem to be large, and the light and shadow of the setting sun cast from above, illuminating the staircase going down.

The basement was quiet and dim, and although there was no lighting setup, the aura of the shadows was no more intense.

Chu Ge set his gaze on the corridor leading below, and according to Baron Said in his previous life, he had discovered the hidden core of the circle in the depths of the basement.

Although he did not describe it in detail, since His Excellency the Baron could find it, he had no reason to fail.

Without hesitation, Chu Ge stepped directly into the dark corridor and moved down.

Luckily, there were spaced candlesticks on the walls of the corridors, and after he lit them, although he couldn't illuminate every detail, he could already get a vague glimpse of them.

Below the staircase is a narrow cloister, surprisingly long, beyond the confines of the garden above, to some special areas.

At the end of the corridor, a wide space appeared in front of Chu Ge's eyes.

A huge library with bookshelves arranged one after the other in a strange order, forming a special ring.

In the center of the circular bookshelf is a very small open space, and the floor is paved with cyan bricks, several of which are dyed black, forming a pattern that is exactly the same as the ring on the bookshelf!

After casually taking out a book from the bookshelf and opening it, Chu Ge couldn't help frowning.

Although the edges of each page of the book are tinged with a faint yellow, the contents of the book are empty!

If you touch it carefully with your hand, you can feel the scratches on the surface of the paper, which are the result of the operation of the marker.

He shifted his gaze from the blank page to the bookshelf, and a hint of strangeness flashed through his mind:

"It's not like all the books have been erased......

Chu Ge tried to decipher the contents through the impressions left on the book, but unfortunately, he was not a professional in this area after all, and after being flipped through it many times, the traces on the paper had long been blurred, and every character was broken.

Not surprisingly, after opening other books, the results brought to Chu Ge still did not change in any way-

The contents of the book, or the ink, without any remnants, are all gone!

Does this have anything to do with the hidden core?

After a careful search of the library, Chu Ge began to think about it in his mind, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly began to run quickly, shuttling between the various bookshelves.
