Chapter 193: Scroll

Where did the incense burner go? Why did it disappear when it was placed on the ground? Could it be because the light there was not so good that the view was blocked?

Hugo frowned and walked towards the other end of the corridor, the Brown Knight hurriedly followed when he saw this, and Laura naturally followed Hugo's side, at this time it seemed to be swimming in the lake suspended in the air, the two little feet slid from time to time, it looked very leisurely, as long as it was in this castle, it could use the power of the entire castle to act wantonly, so that the air became a pond for it to play.

When passing by the corpse of John Bacon, Hugo stopped, lowered his head and silently looked at the man who tried his best to change the fate of himself and his family.

After all, this is a world with extraordinary powers, and it would be a shame not to be a participant in this great era!

Passing by John, who was dragged to death by dreams and obsessions, there was another corpse lying in front of him, it was the exorcist Thomas! He was pierced through the heart by the King of Death, and there was a crimson hole in his chest, which looked like a blur of flesh and blood, and he also died a very tragic death, unlike John, he paid for his strong faith, and in Hugo's mind, he didn't know how to comment, both of them may be regarded as worthy of death.

Hugo looked around and finally determined one thing, the censer was really gone! Could it be that someone had taken it silently? No, it wasn't possible, even if it was dark, it was impossible for someone to sneak up and take the censer without feeling it at all, right?

How could a fist-sized piece of metal disappear so suddenly? At this moment, a picture that Hugo had seen before flashed in his heart!

A white pale shadow flashed by Thomas's side!

Could it be that the thing took the incense burner and the scroll inside? Pale ... Could it be the ghost of Maureen? Could it have been that after that kind of battle, it hadn't completely dissipated? And some of it remained and took the incense burner with it? But the incense burner was a physical thing, a ghost could carry it?

Hugo's brows furrowed tightly, and he subconsciously began to circle in place, when he suddenly noticed Lola, who had been floating leisurely beside him, combing obsidian wings with a glittering jewel from time to time!

Would Laura the Great Beauty know what was going on?

Soon Lola glared at a pair of ruby eyes as beautiful as rubies, giving Hugo a clear feedback!

There was indeed a ghost that quietly left the castle, and Laura was in a very low mood at the time and didn't want to take care of it, but the ghost didn't carry anything like a metal ball!

Hugo couldn't help but rummage around, and suddenly he stared at Thomas's corpse and froze, with a very strange expression on his face, and a magical idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

Could it be... !

Hugo turned Thomas's body over to reveal the front, and at this time, in his chest, a fist-sized incense burner was embedded in the large hole in his chest!

Sure enough, as Hugo guessed, the incense burner was 'stolen' by the corpse!

It turned out that after the King of Death pierced Thomas's body with a punch, he was just in time for the Brown Knight's sneak attack! In a fit of rage, he had no choice but to shake open the body of the dead Thomas, ignoring the burning parchment and turning his head to deal with the fast-flying broadsword, and then because his body was hit, the curse in his blood broke out, and he lost control of his body, and then he was shot in the head by Hugo's meteor!

And coincidentally, the body of Thomas, who was shaken open by the King of Death, fell right on top of the incense burner, which was supposed to be the position of the heart because it was pierced by the King of Death, just enough to put the incense burner in!

Hugo was overjoyed, and quickly stretched out his finger into the wound, and deducted the incense burner out in three or two strokes! He knew that because the parchment had been burning for too long, I was afraid that it had turned into a pile of useless ashes at this time, but even the incense burner looked like a good thing, at least there would be some extraordinary power, and it was finally a little rewarding, and if there was still a little parchment in it that had not burned out, wouldn't it be profitable?

But when Hugo saw the inside of the incense burner, he was stunned!

At least a small part of the parchment remained in the censer! It wasn't completely burned! And more than Hugo had imagined! But the rest of the parchment was almost all infected with blood, and it was unknown how much of it could be seen, so Hugo quickly realized why the parchment had survived.

'The blood in Thomas's chest extinguished the flames on the parchment he desperately wanted to burn!'

What an irony! When he was alive, he desperately wanted to destroy the evidence, but after he died, he became the hero of the evidence.

Nervous and a little expectant and curious, Hugo took the rest of the parchment out of the censer, and now the King of Death dreamed of what he had in his own hands! This scroll, which can be regarded as a historical document, is about to be known to him, could the things recorded in it be related to the secret of the King of Death? Is there any weakness or flaw in him?

Excited and apprehensive, Hugo slowly unfolded the parchment, the handwriting on it was not very clear, and it was so badly burned that some parts had to be guessed before he could barely know what was written.

The main characters on the scrolls are mostly Francis Bacon and his little friend called 'Short Legs', and at first they record the process of their explorations, as well as the explorer Bacon's own perception of some magic, although thrilling but still more fantastical and entertaining.

But soon a piece of information from a 'servant' was discovered by the two, and they entered the expedition that left Hugo stunned and sent chills down his spine!

A broken but surprising picture slowly unfolded in front of Hugo's eyes, revealing to him a bloody and cruel secret hidden in history!
