Chapter 728: The Mansion

Kane likes farming because of steady.

And when it comes to the fastest way to get rich, then it is the robbery of various situations.

Kane, who killed the hamster Jamie in a ruthless way and received his extraordinary wealth, suddenly went from being almost poor to being a little rich.

Many people know that Jamie has two major types of wealth, one is real estate based on real estate, in this kind of city, he has several properties, just being an apartment makes a lot of money, and in fact, those properties are also safe house locations, and the rooms rented out to the outside are excellent cover for safe houses.

The other type of wealth is gold, silver, jewelry, and cash in the ordinary sense. Jamie doesn't believe in banks, or once his wealth is linked to banks, it will attract financial sharks, and his low-key operation of pretending to be an ordinary person basically fails.

In fact, Jamie has a third type of wealth, extraordinary, mixed in this shabby shop, but no one has ever realized that this is Jamie's proudest place, and it can be regarded as an alternative way to show off his wealth, after all, it is the accumulation of hundreds of years, and the money obtained by selling it through special channels is estimated to be able to buy half of the city.

In Kane's eyes, most of these extraordinary items have the problem of improper storage. Fortunately, this is a super demon world, and the environment has its own nourishing effect, except for a small part of the special nature, the preservation method is harsh, or the lack of common sense, so that the ones that are mutually restrained are put together because the efficacy is greatly reduced or even scrapped, and the rest still has room for salvation.

Kane, who has managed to master all of Jamie's secrets, knows that even in bad weather like today, he has less than 10 safe hours to transfer Jamie's fortune.

Tomorrow morning at the latest, someone will become suspicious of Jamie's absence, triggering a series of wealth locking mechanisms, and if Jamie doesn't unlock it in person within 72 hours, the main wealth will be converted into a revenge bounty.

Rather than rushing back to the Met overnight tonight to contact the seriously injured man who survived the Montenegrin prison accident, Kane of course dealt with Jamie's fortune first.

Jamie's fortune means a lot to help him, and the disappearance of a prisoner in Montenegro is nothing more than a commission.

Although the client did not know in advance that the water would be so deep that it would involve the Catholic Atonement Sect, an organization that is very influential in the entire kingdom, the fact is that he has automatically become cannon fodder to test the waters when he is involved in the incident.

Now the support for employers to continue to investigate in depth is nothing more than to make up for losses, and even completely overturn the luck psychology of former partners.

The employer itself knows that this idea is somewhat unrealistic, so it emphatically points out that it will not pay for the deepening and expansion of the incident, but will require that it be done in moderation and control the 'degree'.

There is no doubt that this is a harsh and request. After all, it is the investigators who are at an extreme disadvantage now, and they have never heard of the party that has been crushed by the general trend, relying on rats to drill the camp, looking for loopholes, and winning a phased victory, and has the ability to control the situation and control the 'degree'.

It should be pointed out here that the so-called phased victory is to have some relatively important information as a bargaining chip, so that the Atonement decision-makers agree to end the incident after weighing, including giving Phoenix an explanation, and not continuing to deliberately target the investigators, persecute or hunt them down.

This is actually a profit-oriented stop-loss choice, continue to make trouble, and the loss is too large, so compromise.

That's what Phoenix, and indeed the other investigators, want.

But not what Kane wanted.

Kane wanted to bring down the Atonements once and for all.

The reason is not that the Atonement has offended him, or that he can make a fortune after being overthrown, but that in Kane's eyes, the Atonement is just a clue that may involve some old evil god.

Only by grasping this clue will it be possible to obtain some information about the evil god that he wants.

In this world, the evil god is so powerful that it is almost invincible, but because of this, its truest and most important side is also exposed.

Therefore, the information about the evil gods obtained by this world is more valuable than killing an incarnation, doppelganger, or the like in other worlds.

This is the consciousness of the Kane Money Echo Body, not hesitating to sacrifice, but also to dig out the secrets of the evil gods, and pass them on to the deity together with the information of his own life experience, so as to increase the chances of victory for the deity to destroy the great enemy.

In this case, there is no hurry, even if the seriously wounded person is killed, at most it is just a loss of an opportunity to know some useful information in advance, the Atonement Faction will not let him go, and after the failure of the operation to hire external forces to deal with him through bounties and other means, he will probably end up with his sleeves in person, and if he has not taken the initiative to kill the Atonement Faction at that time, he can also get information from the members sent by him to trouble him.

And the biggest gain that Jamie's wealth can bring is actually time.

He has the confidence to earn wealth, but he can't make up for extra time, and his step-by-step development is not only not in line with his current needs. The more feasible method is nothing more than to complete the bloody accumulation of the initial stage ruthlessly, like many well-known figures in ancient and modern China and abroad.

On the way out of Jamie's grocery store to the Westside mansion, Kane lets Jenny drive, while he himself tinkers with the otherworldly items he picks from Jamie in the back seat in preparation for the battle that may ensue.

There was no one in the car to speak, and the atmosphere seemed dull and urgent, but Jenny felt much better than before. Maybe it's because I finally accepted the fact that 'Kevin is already a monster', and many things don't matter.

What makes Jenny unhappy now is that in addition to another adventure to come, there is also the gloomy future of her family, with her adult thinking, of course, she understands, just Chong Kane's extraordinary ability, and her family will not want to live a stable life in the future. Even if trouble doesn't come to him, Kane will most likely find trouble on his own until he gets a social status and benefits that match his ability.

Green Mansion, a very famous building in Xicheng District, is named after the street where it is located.

This mansion is very stylish, with its own garden square, the land here is not an inch of land, but it is also an urban area, but the owner of the Green Mansion can be extravagant enough to set aside a large area of open space to make a square, which is rich and visible.

The Green family has a bad reputation in the local area, not because they are unkind to the rich, but because his family is always involved in some mysterious events, and several people in the family are crazy and have died, and even doubled their salaries, and they can't hire servants who are willing to work night shifts in this mansion.

Locals generally believe that this is a cursed family, and even those close to it are prone to bad luck, ranging from serious illness to death.

At night, people prefer to take a detour rather than pass through the vicinity of the mansion.

Coupled with the strong wind and rain, it is easy to understand that there are no people and no cars near the mansion.

For this reason, the car of Kane and his party also had to be parked far away, otherwise it would be too conspicuous.

"Am I going with me?" Jenny explained, "I mean, I'm almost certain to encounter the paranormal, am I going to be a drag?"

"Yes, but I'm not at ease with leaving you. Kane said, gesturing at Amy, "It will do everything it can to act as your shield, so there's only one thing you need to be aware of later, and that's not to run around no matter what happens." ”

"Understood. ”

Kane got out of the car first, stretched out his right hand, and held the crumbs of some kind of herb in his palm, and then the crumbs simmered in his hands, and a large amount of smoke came out.

At the same time, the rain fell on him and evaporated into vapour, which mixed with the smoke to form an extraordinary mixture of hot hookahs.

That's when Kane lets Jenny out of the car and drives a hot hookah and wraps it around Jenny, and Amy and himself do the same.

It feels like a weightless transparent plastic poncho that can't be penetrated by rain, but it won't slip off, but blends into the hot hookah, making it more solid.

After that, Jenny followed Kane on foot to the mansion.

The garden square is surrounded by well-trimmed shrubs, and even though it is late autumn and early winter, it still has a strong green color, and when viewed from a distance during the day, it has a kind of pine and cypress vitality.

However, on a rainy night, it is a different feeling, especially after walking into it, it is quite like being in the depths of the Black Forest.

In addition to the sound of the rain, you can also faintly hear the sound of rustling, and with the shaking of the branches and leaves, it seems that something is jumping in it.

This scared Jenny, and if it weren't for the fact that the needle in her head was still working, she would have been screaming.

"It's the Evil Dog, an undead monster that is sensitive to the breath of the living, but they can't detect us and won't jump out. ”

Kane's voice sounded in Jenny's head at the right time.

This made Jenny feel a lot more relieved, but she also became more and more curious about Kane, she felt that the transformation caused by an extraordinary event was no longer enough to explain what happened to Kevin, Kane knew too much, and obviously could feel the familiar characteristics of that kind of magic, could it be that if he mastered a new technique, he could be directly perfected without practice?

Although there are more and more questions in her mind, as an adult who has experienced a lot of things, Jenny will not ask directly, especially at this time.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if what she sees in front of her at this time is no longer Kevin, but a monster in Kevin's skin like Jamie before, what good is it for her to expose it?

At least this monster saved her, protected her, and is doing everything it can to save Lana. She has investigator friends, Sam has investigator friends in addition to Kevin's apprentice, and also has a good relationship with investigator friends, but at a critical moment like this, which involves danger, how many people are willing to stand up and help, or have the ability to help?

Therefore, although there is no such refined proverb as 'if a person is observant, there is no disciple', many people understand the truth. With the blessing of the Tuojin needle, Jenny can always maintain a calm state of thinking, and naturally will not be emotional.

Walking along the road, the Green Mansion gradually revealed its full picture, the time was around 20:40, but the whole mansion was dark, and there was no room with lights in sight.

After walking a little further, the situation changed again, and the light came through the window, the same old sconces that were common in the corridors, and the light was dim, not only did not illuminate anything, but set off the gloom.

Jenny also saw moving lights, as if someone was carrying a horse lantern through the corridor.

Kane laughed a few times, this kind of atmosphere makes people nervous, so as to pave the way for the real means He has seen a lot.

It is indeed very effective to deal with ordinary people, and there is no need to even take further actions, just the creation of this atmosphere can make people too nervous, and unconsciously quickly consume energy and physical energy, and when they are really in danger, they find that they are already very tired and tired.

And when he encounters him, not only can it not have a good effect, but it will expose the information and thus be targeted.

Kane pulls out a ruby the size of a little thumb, which is one of Jamie's collections. Gems are a common material for mages to cast spells, and rubies often go well with some fire-based spells.

Extraordinary flames ignited in Kane's palms, and his hands clenched, and with a twist of the ruby, the ruby turned into powder.

Then, like blowing sand, it was sprinkled on Amy's ash body, and the fine glowing dust penetrated the hookah and clothes, and stuck directly to the ash body.

After a while, Amy stepped forward and pressed her hand on Jenny's left breast, which corresponds to her heart, and after that, Jenny felt the heat spread from the position of her heart to her limbs, and it felt like taking a hot bath, and it was so refreshing that people couldn't help but feel excited.

At this time, Kane's voice echoed in his mind again: "As long as Amy is close to you, you will not see any more illusions in the future." ”

Only then did Jenny realize that what she had just seen was actually unreal.

The reality is quite common, with some rooms lit on, others dark, as you would see in a normal residential building at night, but the key is that there is no eerie quality effect to confuse people.

Follow Kane to a closed door, on the side of the mansion, which should be a corner door such as a servant's passage.

Jenny saw Kane standing in front of the door and looked at it for a moment, then took out a small leather bag, and grabbed a pinch of sandy powder from it, which was thrown like a door.

The powder struck the door, forming glowing bright spots, and then spread like fire on the cloth, centered on dots, and the visible rings of fire spread in all directions.

However, the door itself was not damaged, and what appeared to have burned off was an invisible membrane.

Kane advised: "When you meet someone, if the other party does all kinds of crazy acts, such as insulting, begging, or doing something, don't panic, most of the other party has been tricked by illusion, in his eyes, you are a hideous monster, and what you say is also a vicious curse." ”

"So what should I do?"

"Do nothing, I'll deal with the situation if there's a situation, I can't handle it, Amy will protect you. ”

"Okay. ”

At this time, the invisible membrane on the door had been burned out, and Jenny saw Kane take out a golden key that had no teeth at all, insert it into the keyhole, and with a twist, open the door.

Pull the door into the mansion, look at the interior layout, sure enough, it is a servant's residence, the corridor is narrow, the room is next to each other, full of the smell of the dormitory, and there is no decent decoration, but it is very clean.

Kane took out an old-fashioned compass, opened it, looked at it, and then chose the path to follow.

Jenny had seen this thing before, and Kane had scavenged it from Jamie's grocery store. She half-jokingly asked if it was the legendary Compass of Doom, but Kane said that to some extent, it was not wrong to understand it this way, although in fact it refers to the convergence point of abnormal transcendent powers, but for mortals, it is the right choice not to interact with things in that area.

Jenny found that Kane walked in this strange and quiet mansion, very dignified, as if he were walking in his own home, without deliberately slowing his steps, and not worrying about the door of a certain room suddenly opening and someone coming out.

However, whenever Kane had to pass through a door, he was always very careful, looking at it carefully, and sometimes he would sprinkle a pinch of fire sand to burn the invisible membrane as he had done when he entered the mansion before.

This situation reminded her of what Sam had said to her when she was not crazy: "The door is a very special kind of being in transcendent events, and you won't know if it's heaven or hell until it's opened." ”

Jenny had always thought it was some kind of metaphor, but now it seems that it is probably a statement.

Under the leadership of Kane, the three of them came to the hall corresponding to the main entrance of the mansion after a little rounding.

As a vestibule, it can be called the interior face of the mansion, and the design and decoration are extremely elaborate and luxurious, lacking the rumoredly expensive natural materials.

In Kane's eyes, however, there are only two most unusual ones.

First, the marble used for the floors and pillars is a material called wave stone, which not only has the natural curve of flowing water, but also has the color of wave white and ocean blue.

Second, on the staircase corresponding to the front hall and the main entrance, there is an antique large floor clock, and in the translucent crystal cover, you can see the clock parts inside, each of which is as exquisite as a work of art, and there are etched patterns and patterns on the plane of those chainrings.

Moreover, the structure of the bell seems to have been deliberately designed in a complicated style, with multiple layers of axle teeth snapping and rotating with each other, making the viewer dizzy.

Jenny was also amazed by these two unique features, if the material of the wave stone and the environment created by the lighting surprised and amazed her, then the grandfather clock brought a mysterious horror, because the ticking bell seemed to strike on the human heart, clear and shocking, and there was an inexplicable sense of rhythm.

Kane, on the other hand, paid more attention to the contents of the dial, including the symbols that represented the scales.

Accident, very unexpected, Kane never thought that in such a place, he could see an artifact, even if it was only a part, but the dial of this clock was indeed a part of the artifact.

The life scale, the symbol on this dial, represents the position of all kinds of life in this universe, and the curves on the dial are related to each other. This is the essential relationship interpreted from the perspective of the law, and if you can fully grasp and use it, you can become the master of the living beings.

As for the rest of the clock, although it is also an extraordinary item, the grade has dropped by more than one level. Kane speculated that most of them were self-righteous people who forcibly interpreted the contents of the dial, and the magic that was concocted was not deciphered by one person, but by many people, and finally such a bloated system was concocted.

Although such a final combination still has a strong magical effect, Kane evaluated it as a burning piano and boiling cranes, and the most powerful effect of the dial was suppressed.

After standing in front of the bell for a full five minutes, Kane said, "Come out, since you can live here for many years without being confused by the sound of this bell, then you should be able to perceive my strength, hand over Lana and this dial to me, and I will make this clock truly merge with this villa, and become a mysterious house that can be summoned at any time, but can stay in the shadow plane for a long time." ”

"What if I refuse?" a fluttering voice came from the hall, very neutral, difficult to distinguish between genders.

Kane smiled, "I'll ruin this place and leave an observation mark on you, and then watch your run-and-run play with the Tyndallus Hounds." If you're lucky enough to find another Plane Corner Shelter like this, I'll break it down again until you're torn to shreds by the Hounds. ”
