Chapter 484: One of the Stones

Hao Ren watched Igor fall straight back, and was helped up by the butler halfway, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Vivian: "You left a mark, you didn't say it earlier, I knew that I wouldn't have to take out the painting, and now I have to return that thing to others." ”

"Didn't I just remember," Vivien pouted, "and what are you going to do with this painting?" If you'd love to see it, I've got a real person. ”

Hao Ren glanced at the portrait regretfully: "Tsk...... This thing looks quite valuable, but it's a pity that Lily poked a hole. ”

At this time, Igor had already relieved his breath, looked at Hao Ren and the others in a daze, and finally his eyes fell on Vivian: "Witch? ”

Vivian nodded, seeing that Igor was a little bit of a sign that she was about to draw over, she hurriedly added the second half of the sentence: "Eh, don't be afraid, I'm not looking for you to settle accounts." Relax, relax, take a deep breath - your ancestors were much calmer than you were. ”

Vivien is talking nonsense with her eyes open, and the ancestor of the Andre family knelt down when he saw her......

Igor clutched the buttons of his clothes on his chest with his hands, his knuckles pale from too much force, as if he were trying to determine the reality in front of him and avoid passing out again. He stood trembling and uneasy, his face full of uneasiness: "Then you came today because ......"

"I'm going to help you deal with this evil spirit," Vivien waved her hand, "Actually, I didn't expect you to be the descendant of that kid back then. ”

Igor looked nervous: "It's not because our ancestors broke the agreement of the year that ......"

Vivian waved her hand with a smile without waiting for the other party to finish: "Don't say it, don't say it, you spent three hundred years to spread the things of the year to the gods, and it doesn't match the situation back then." The matter of the curse of the evil spirits has nothing to do with your ancestors. I'm not going to punish you in any way - in fact, I don't even feel sorry for you...... Well, you can have time to talk about these things later. The important thing now is the stone back then, and I hope that you descendants did not throw away the things of your ancestors. If I'm going to lose it, I'll probably be angry. ”

Igor hurriedly waved his hand: "Of course, of course...... Oh, I mean, of course I didn't lose it, it's kept in the highest room of the castle, and I'll take you there. ”

Igor led the group towards the castle, and Hao Ren glanced up at the three-hundred-year-old building before stepping through the gate. On the gray-black exterior wall of the castle, he saw that large swaths of ice and snow gradually shattered and dissipated into the air as if they had just woken up from a nightmare, and the entire castle seemed to be wrapped in a layer of crystal clear broken crystal dust and gradually sublimated. In this wonderful and eerie spectacle, the oppressive atmosphere that envelops the castle of AndrΓ© is gradually fading. The Wraith is gone. The strange magnetic fields and spatial phenomena it produces are also retreating deep underground, and the slanting sunlight shines on the mottled arc of the castle, bringing a sense of warmth and brilliance for the first time.

The servants in the castle had received the news that the evil spirits had been defeated, and they were coming out of the room one by one in disbelief. Feeling the cold subside and the strange atmosphere that has always haunted the castle fades, the people who have been serving the AndrΓ© family for many years are immersed in joy.

The corridors of the castle were littered with servants walking around asking each other for news, and an emaciated figure suddenly ran down the stairs next to it and made its way through the crowd to the group, it was Anna. The poor girl had finally shaken off the nightmarish whisper in her head, and her spirits were remarkably uplifted. As soon as he saw Igor, he impatiently stepped forward: "Dad, that voice, that voice!" The voice is gone! ”

"I know, I know." Igor couldn't resist his excitement, but he still tried to maintain his demeanor in front of Vivien, and he pressed Anna's shoulder. "It's gone, it's all gone. Good boy, evil spirits will not appear again. ”

Anna's eyes widened as she looked at Hao Ren and them. Her face was still pale from a serious illness, which made her gaze a little scary: "You really killed that evil spirit?" But how could this ......?"

As soon as Hao Ren saw Anna, he couldn't help but think of the inexplicable things mentioned by the other party about "Tanagus", "high-energy convergence state", "sublimation" and so on, and he suddenly realized that the strange knowledge in Anna's mind might be the key to uncovering the secret of the angry spirit: "Anna, you still remember the angry spirit...... Is that what the evil spirit is telling you? Thanagus or something. ”

Anna shuddered when she heard the word, but after the murmur in her head faded, she was no longer affected by fear, and the strange knowledge was now just some incomprehensible memory fragments to her: "Probably...... I still remember some ......"

Vivien looked at Anna, "You have a good memory, I hope you can tell us everything that evil spirit told you." Of course, it doesn't have to be nowβ€”you can go back and rest and regain your energy. ”

Anna looked at Vivien suspiciously, and then looked at her father curiously, and Igor quickly turned pale: "Listen to her, child, she is the master of the Andrei family." ”

Anna was immediately surprised, but she didn't ask much, and Igor asked her to go back to her room and rest now.

"By the way, check on Akeem, and let Dr. Freeman confirm it," Igor called out behind Anna, "and he may have to recover for a while, don't bother untying the chains!" ”

"Now she doesn't look so scary," Lily muttered, "and when I saw her before, she felt weird from top to bottom." ”

Igor led Hao Ren and them to the top floor of the castle, where there were no servants walking around, only four guards dressed in black waiting for the two entrances and exits, these four guards were obviously the most elite bodyguards of the Andrei family, even when the castle was shrouded in paranormal phenomena, they did not leave their posts. Igor greeted the guards, then pointed to a metal door that looked unusually heavy, "Right behind this door." ”

After entering a complex set of passwords and verifying the iris and fingerprints, the door to the vault slowly opened, revealing a small, brightly lit room inside.

There are only a few shelves in the room, and they hold some of the AndrΓ© family's most valuable collections: two ancient swords, some indiscernible documents, and a grayish-black, inconspicuous triangular "stone".

"Oh, that's it." Vivien saw the small stone in the center of the room at a glance, and Igor lowered the bulletproof glass shield with an alarm device around the stone, and Vivien waved at the stone, and the latter flew over herself.

"Well, three hundred years ago you would have thought it was a stone," Hao Ren took the "stone" and looked at it over and over again, "It's obviously a man-made thing." ”

It is a cigarette box-sized contraption that is somewhere between stone and metal, with a few raised ridges on one side and a few small recessed pits on the other. Hao Ren had never seen anything like it, but its regular grinding marks were undoubtedly the result of clever craftsmanship.

This is the "stone" that Vivien gave to Andre's ancestor three hundred years ago.

"Yes, it's man-made at first glance, but no one knows what it is, it can only be called a stone," Vivien pursed her lips and turned her head to look at Igor, "You say this has brought great wealth to the Andrea family?" How? ”

"It's gold," Igor took the small device and stroked its ridges in a certain order, "I can still demonstrate how it opens a spatial exit, but everything in it has been taken by my ancestors, and the Andrei family's original wealth came from this ......"

Igor's voice fell, and the front end of the small device in his hand suddenly projected a purple light, and the light swept through the air, unexpectedly opening a spatial rift about a meter long. Igor placed the gadget on the table next to him, and he walked over and put his hand into the spatial rift, with an expression of awe on his face: "Incomprehensible paranormal phenomenon...... I can put my hand in and take something out of it or store something. It was filled with gold, the witch's property. ”

Vivien was stunned to look at the "gadget" she had handed over to her human followers back then, with a dead expression: "...... I almost got rich back then......"

Hao Ren patted her on the shoulder: "Don't think too much, if this thing is really in your hands, it will probably not last for three days and you will have to lose it." ”

Vivien was about to cry: "Why didn't I study it for a while!" ”

Lily pointed out sharply: "Just because it's you, you haven't studied for a while, and even if you really study for a while, you won't be able to find this opening code - you can't make a fortune in this life, this is the will of the big universe." ”

Vivien: "......" (to be continued......
