……………………

At this time, Roland's carriage had already left the inner city and was on its way to the Knox family mansion.

Yet in the process, he was still thinking about that question.

Why did the Knox family invite him over, does it have something to do with the kid last time? Or did the elf archer want to take revenge?

Alas...... In any case, he had only one purpose on his trip: to obtain information about the gods.

"Lord Baron, we've arrived at the Knox family's mansion."

"Hmm."

After hearing the servant's voice, Roland subconsciously looked out the window.

Not far away, there is a small palace building. The building stood out in the civilian area, feeling like a piece of gold in the rock.

Pedestrians who walked past the building looked at it in awe.

"The Knox Family...... Now it really looks a little different from you. ”

Roland looked at the building and frowned.

If in the game in his previous life, all he saw was a relatively gorgeous house, and there was nothing surprising about it at all.

But...... What do you see now? A scene from the outside.

As long as you use a little mental power to probe, you will find that there is a faint translucent white phantom floating in the sky above the Knox family's mansion.

The big guy took on the appearance of a human, and he had a strange weapon in his hand.

Wait a minute...... Why does this look like a patron deity?

Suddenly, Roland was shocked and immediately realized this problem.

Indeed, when you look at it this way, that big translucent creature really looks like a projection of a god.

"Hello, are you Baron Roland?"

It was at this time. The soldier guarding the gate also seemed to see Roland's carriage, and hurriedly stepped forward, as if asking with some uncertainty.

"Yes."

Roland nodded and said lightly.

And as he spoke, he handed over the Knox family invitation for the soldier to see.

"Hello. Baron Roland, please come with me, Duke Knox is waiting for you inside. ”

After checking the authenticity of the invitation, the soldier motioned for the other companions to open the door and make a gesture of invitation.

With a bang, the closed door opened, revealing a path into the depths of the Knox family.

Since the carriage could not enter it, Roland had to step down from the carriage and follow the soldier's lead. Head to the depths of the Knox family mansion.

But...... Neither Roland, nor the soldiers who had previously been in charge of the inspection, found anything unusual.

That is, just before the gate closed, suddenly, an illusory figure flashed by, and instantly disappeared into the gate of the Knox family's mansion, not attracting the attention of any soldier at all.

Click, click, the footsteps of Roland and the others constantly echoed in the aisle.

The soldier didn't mean to speak. Just keep walking towards the front, dutifully leading the way for Roland.

But that didn't stop Roland from observing the scenery around him. As soon as he stepped into the massive building, he was greeted by statues of humans kneeling on the ground, seemingly praying, on both sides of the passageway.

Although they all seemed to pray to the gods, they gave Roland an eerie atmosphere.

It's just that while he was thinking, he was not idle.

Roland hesitated for a moment, but finally focused on himself. Manifesting the psychic power in a semicircle, it stretched out to every corner of the building, hoping to find the place where the Knox family stored their materials.

Ultimately...... The emperor lives up to his wishes.

"It should be the only room here that is guarded by soldiers and exudes an eerie aura."

Soon, Roland found a room that appeared to contain a large number of books and materials.

Psychic feedback based on probing. That room was the only room in the entire mansion that was guarded by five Level 60 soldiers. As long as you are not a fool, you will understand that there is something extremely important in it, otherwise how could you attach so much importance to it.

In order to verify the conjecture in his heart, Roland decided to let his spiritual power enter and investigate.

But what happened next made his brows frown.

Because at the moment when the spiritual power tried to enter the other side of the door, Roland actually lost contact with that trace of spiritual power.

This is a very bad feedback, and the loss of contact means that there are some special defense mechanisms hidden inside. If he forced his way inside, he would probably attract the attention of the Knox family.

"Baron Roland, Duke Knox is waiting for you inside."

Just when Roland was surprised, the soldier who led the way stopped, stretched out his hand to a gate in the passage, and whispered.

"Thank you......"

Hearing this, Roland immediately woke up from his contemplation and walked quickly in the direction of the gate.

When he stepped through the door, the first thing that caught his eye was a general reception hall.

Huge floor-to-ceiling windows, a stove built into the wall, and several ornate tables and chairs are placed not far from the stove.

Yet five men dressed in aristocratic attire sat there, whispering something.

According to Roland's memories, those men were supposed to be the sons of Duke Knox.

As long as nothing happens, among those guys, there will be one person who will inherit the title of Duke of Chengkes in the future, and then let the family continue.

"Hello, Baron Roland, it's a pleasure to meet you...... Come on, we have something to talk to Baron Roland. ”

At this time, after seeing Roland's figure, a man in a gray aristocratic robe stood up from his chair and beckoned to him with a smile on his face.

"Hmmm......"

Roland replied lightly, and slowly came to sit down beside them.

He looked at the five people with different faces in front of him, and he really couldn't guess the purpose of these guys calling him.

And Roland also found that there was some faint hostility in the eyes of two of them looking at him. He seemed very unhappy that he had entered here.

"Excuse me, is there something you are looking for me to come over?"

Roland hesitated for a moment, and finally said straight to the point.

He was very unhappy with this feeling of being kept in the dark, and it was better to just open the door and speak, and leave directly if he didn't talk properly, anyway, it wasn't just here that he could get information about the gods.

"Baron Roland. Don't rush just yet, as for those things...... Our father will talk to you personally, please wait a minute. ”

I saw that the gray-robed man just now smiled awkwardly and said, "I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Calvin." ”

Calvin?

Listening to the name, for some reason Roland felt a little familiar with it.

But after some thought, he couldn't remember when he had heard of the name.

"Hello, Mr. Calvin."

Now that the other party has introduced himself, Roland can't ignore it. Hurriedly responded.

"Humph......"

But the attitude of the other four towards Roland is a little different. I saw that two of them were silent, while the other two directly expressed disgust.

Just as the atmosphere in the hall became awkward, the sound of footsteps sounded behind Roland.

When I looked back, I saw an old man with gray hair slowly walking in from outside the door with the support of a small child.

"Father, be careful."

In an instant, all four men stepped forward to support the old man. Make a look of concern.

But that's just pretending...... The rich color of hypocrisy can be clearly seen in their eyes.

"Mr. Calvin, won't you come over?"

Roland glanced at Calvin beside him suspiciously. Among the five people, he was the only one who didn't step forward to help, which couldn't help but look a little strange.

"Hehe, my father is not at that point where he is about to die, he doesn't need anyone's support at all............"

Faced with Roland's doubts, Calvin only smiled faintly. He did not speak again.

Don't need anyone's help?

Hearing this, Roland couldn't help but take a few more glances at the old man who seemed to be about to fall at any moment.

For some reason, he always felt as if the Knox family seemed a little strange.

"Is that him?"

Suddenly, Roland looked at the black-haired boy beside the old man in surprise.

There is no doubt that the little brunette boy is the one who met Knox in the spider's nest. Pesso.

Merely...... Now it seems that the status of this little boy is not low.

Because it can be seen from the gaze of those five guys. They all felt some jealousy and hatred for Pesso.

"You're here, Baron Roland, I have something to talk to you about......"

The old Duke of Knox walked slowly to a chair in front of the stove and sat down, and said in a trembling voice.

Suddenly, Duke Knox paused, turned his head to look at his five sons: "Pesso stay, you all go out, I want to talk to Baron Roland alone." ”

"Yes, father......."

As soon as the words fell, the faces of the guys turned gloomy, and they turned back and walked out of the room quite unwillingly.

But Roland noticed that among the five people, Calvin's face was still very calm, as if he had expected this.

With the departure of Duke Knox's five sons, only Roland, Pesso and Duke Knox were left in the entire reception hall.

"Tell me, Duke Knox, what are you calling me for?"

At this time, Roland took a deep breath and said to the old man in front of him.

"Ahem, ahem...... Baron Roland, don't be in a hurry, in fact, I will find you this time...... It's all the meaning of the gods...... And it has something to do with the ruins that Mr. Baron explored before. ”

The old Duke of Knox coughed and said slowly.
