Chapter 328: A Strange Event
Barrett sat in his chair and didn't move for a long time.
Is there really some kind of unspeakable force in this world that can connect unrelated people? But Barrett knew that if the diary was true, he did have some strange connection to the owner of the tower, whom he had never met.
As he travels through this vast dark realm, he stumbles upon a tower whose owner is the previous owner of the dragon bone ring he was wearing. All this was so coincidental that Barrett had to have some whimsical speculation and suspicion.
According to his understanding and speculation, the subsequent progress should be that the master of the tower rode his bone dragon to show off to his friends the day after writing his diary, but on the way, he accidentally ran into John Emperor and his abominable servant Gerdor.
I don't know if there was any communication between the master of the tower and the mage, but the result was that John Deyi killed the master of the tower, snatched his bone dragon transformed from the rainbow dragon, and then threw the dragon bone ring on the owner of the tower to the abomination Gerdo beside him.
After some time, Gridol was left behind by Master John the Emperor in the sealed plane of Deathknell. And after getting the Spatial Ring for free from the 'Dirty', and the 'Eve's Mini Tombstone' also made by John Deyi, he had to go to Deathknell Town because of the curse, and met Gerdo in that space.
Because he helped Abomination get several Dark Dog corpses to sacrifice his teeth, the Abomination gave him a pile of semi-corroded gold and jewelry. And, this keel ring.
After that, because he chose the Death Knight skill on the [Mission Log], he prepared to come to the dark realm to carry out missions and hunt the undead in order to obtain more soul energy. Later, on the way to the mission, while chasing the strange spider of the 'Twisted Web', he accidentally encountered this tower, and then mistook this tower for a 'forbidden castle' because of the crow shouting "treasure" in the constructed body, and finally returned to this tower again with this dragon bone ring......
Who arranged all this? the dead master of the tower, or the John Emperor who always had his name by his side from time to time?
It shouldn't be possible, even the gods can't have the ability to arrange so many things, and even the more bizarre and inexplicable [Mission Log] is included.
It should have been just an exaggerated coincidence, as the Nord proverb says, 'When a name comes to your ears, it's bound to come up a second time.'" ’
Some things are just like that, they start with a little bit at first, but then the progress goes on and on. Barrett said to herself.
Another thing that has to be considered, doesn't it mean that the lich has a life box, if the master of the tower was really killed by Master John the Emperor, then did he come back to life in his lair?
Probably not!, Barrett judged. If the tower's master had been resurrected, it was unlikely that the page of the journal he saw would be the last. It is impossible that this uninvited guest has been intruding for a long time, and the owner of this place is still silent.
Moreover, the words of the White Bone Naga also confirmed this speculation.
Could it be that the owner of the tower carried his lich life box with him? Could it be that the dragon bone ring in his hand was the lich life box? Barrett had another guess.
If this is the case, then Master John Emperor will definitely destroy the Dragonbone Ring after finding it, and the demise of the tower's owner will become a matter of course.
Having said that, the lich in Deathstroke Town who reincarnated Viscount Freed by half-baked means also made his own life box into a ring and carried it directly with him.
Why do all these lichs like to carry their life boxes with them? Who did they learn this bad habit from?
"What's wrong? Uncle Big Man. The little ghost came out of the ornament around his neck and asked with some curiosity, "I saw you doing it here for a long time." ”
"It's nothing, just thinking about something unnecessary. Barrett shook his head, maybe it was all his own speculation, maybe the two had nothing to do with each other, after all, other lichs might also have Rainbow Dragons transformed into bone dragons.
"There doesn't seem to be any danger here, so I won't go back for the time being. The little ghost wandered curiously back and forth between the bookcases, "When there is danger, it is not too late for me to return to the ornament to protect the big uncle." ”
"Okay. Barrett tucked the heavy diary and several other books on the table into the Spatial Ring. As for the books on the bookcases around them, they didn't touch them.
The number of those books is too much, even if all his spiritual power is consumed, there is no way to pack them all, so he simply doesn't take them for the time being, and will talk about them when he comes back up.
The whole thing was a bit strange to guess, but Barrett only hesitated for a few seconds before continuing down the demonic rope with the little ghost.
......
The second floor of the tower is divided into rooms. The first room was like a living room, with a delicate round table and chairs, a glass chandelier overhead, and a sunken fireplace in the wall on the right, with a few bones neatly placed in the fireplace, like firewood. Obviously, the owner of the tower still retains some of the aesthetic and living habits of his life.
A room next to the living room appears to be a studio, and the walls are covered with paintings. The paintings depict both male and female figures, as well as buildings and landscapes, as well as some strange types of undead creatures.
In the middle of the studio is a large drawing board depicting a bone dragon with its head spread out, but this very bold bone dragon is not completely painted, and half of the white bone dragon wings and a tail are still blank.
"Is he the owner of this place?" asked the little ghost, pointing to the first male portrait on the left wall.
The human man in this portrait is handsome, with slightly raised lips and eyebrows, and although his expression is a little haughty, it does not make people feel very rude. The man was wearing a black robe embroidered with triangular marks, and held a strange-looking white bone staff in his hand.
On the left wall of the studio is a portrait of this human male, but the further back of the portrait becomes, the more blurred and abstract the face becomes, and in the final painting, the facial features of the figure can only be easily recognized.
"I think so. Barrett replied. There didn't seem to be anything of value here, and the paintings might have some artistic value, but he couldn't tell the difference. Moreover, Barrett always felt that the art thing was useless.
He retreated from the studio with the little ghost and entered a third, bedroom-like room.
As he stepped in, a voice suddenly sounded in the corner of the room, "Who are you, and why did you enter the master's room?"
