Chapter 260: Little Mouse
"Squeak......
Christine gently pushed open the door to the library.
She looked up and saw that there were only a few people in the library.
They didn't react much to the sound of the door opening, and remained immersed in their own world.
This should be the place.
Christine compared her memories of the previous life to make sure that the man had not left the library in this time.
With a light step, she slowly walked deeper into the library.
Soon in a very ordinary-looking place, Christine stopped.
Looking at the door in front of her, she was slightly distressed.
After all, only those with the occult factor can open this door.
But Christine only knows how to unlock the spell set on the door, but because of the spiritual damage, there is no mystery factor at the moment.
Maybe he shouldn't have moved the guards away from his side so early.
But the thought just went through my head and dispelled it.
It's just a door.
There are many ways to open a door, but this is not the only one.
Like what......
Letting the person inside the door open the door on their own is a good way to do this.
"Winter Winter ......"
A polite knock sounded in the silent hallway.
The light here is dim and the atmosphere is very gloomy, like a road to the abyss.
After knocking on the door, Christine quietly stepped back.
I don't know how long it has been, but the owner of the room seems to recognize her and sense Christine's persistence.
A bright, multi-layered protective circle lit up.
It swirled helplessly in Christine's eyes, as if compromised.
Soon, a deep entrance to the space appeared in front of Christine.
After thanking her owner slightly, she stepped in with her legs raised.
I didn't worry about the owner of this place having other dangerous intentions.
After the distortion of the sense of direction, Christine's eyes lit up.
The space here is huge, and only a sarcophagus is seen standing in the center.
The circle underneath is in an extremely regular state, delivering life-sustaining magic to the people in the sarcophagus.
"Ahem!"
"You're Her Royal Highness Princess Christine......"
An old, calm voice rang out from the sarcophagus.
"Exactly, Lord Griffin."
"Griffin ......"
"Ahem! It's been a long time since I've heard someone call me by my name......"
"I thought the world had forgotten about me."
The man in the sarcophagus laughed at himself.
Christine knew that the person inside wasn't as old as she sounded, just that her vocal cords were damaged.
If you talk about the real age, you may be forty or fifty years old, which is in the golden stage for a warlock.
But at such an age, he can only live in the sarcophagus.
Rely on the operation of the circle to maintain his life, and he can't move all year round.
If it were him, he would definitely have endless resentment.
"But as a noble princess, why did you deign to come here?"
The tone of the man in the sarcophagus began to grow cold.
The subconscious implication is to ask Christine why she knows about this hidden place.
"Lord Griffin, I know what happened to you and the injustice you suffered."
"As a member of the Hilda family, I apologize to you."
This sentence was like detonating a barrel of explosives, revealing his scars.
"Excuse me?"
"Ahem!
โ
"I dare not forget the suffering that you Hilda have inflicted on me."
A cacophony suddenly sounded in the space.
There is almost endless resentment and curse flowing from the words.
It was the sorrow of the inhuman treatment he had suffered, and the complaint of not being able to move for decades.
Christine listened silently to his shrill taunt.
His own family is indeed ashamed of him.
Who can watch the comrades-in-arms who are sent to death one by one because of deception.
Who can watch their own family members suffer horribly abused.
What's more, the merits of his comrades-in-arms were erased, the corpses of his family members were eaten by the beasts, and he was also defined as a dead man of treason......
Almost all the misery in the world is concentrated on him.
If she could, Christine would have loved to save them and her family.
But now she has only one apology for that.
And her real purpose today is to find the principal.
"Huh?"
A phantom slowly solidified in the space.
The sharp gaze instantly fixed on the uninvited guest here.
Christine heard the noise and turned around.
"Princess Christine?"
The visitor seemed to be a little surprised, as if they were shocked by her sudden appearance here.
But his fingers moved quietly.
A depressing atmosphere gradually permeated.
"Hello, Professor Adolf."
Christine called out the identity of the person who came.
Adolf's gaze passed over her to the sarcophagus behind her.
"Ahem!"
"She should have come prepared."
The man in the sarcophagus coughed lightly, and then reminded Adolf.
"Your Highness Christine, why are you here?"
"Professor Adolf, I can put the matter of coming here for a while, how about solving the little mouse that came in behind you first?"
Christine said with an indistinct smile in her eyes, staring at Adolf's shadow.
Adolf's eyebrows furrowed, unsure of what she meant.
But he suddenly felt a strong danger coming from behind him.
With a twist of his waist, the spell that had been prepared suddenly came to him.
With the piercing sound of the explosion, the remnants of Adolf in place were torn apart by the raging air currents.
But the next moment, his figure appeared a few meters away.
An inexplicable force in the space pressed on the shadow's body, trying to clamp it down.
But with just a slight swing, she broke free.
"Why are you again?!"
The Extreme Demon Girl looked at Christine who appeared here in shock.
She had already found a person in the academy who was full of emotions, like a demon crawling up from prison.
But I didn't expect to meet this person who could find her when I followed him!
Adolf was even more suspicious when he heard this, and his vigilant gaze wandered over the two of them.
"Forget it, since you've been found here, don't blame me!"
The Extreme Demon Woman said viciously, she remembered that she had been scared away by this person before, and felt endless shame.
There may be some way to this woman, but there shouldn't be much.
What's more, this place is so hidden, no one will find out if there is a big fuss.
This is a great problem that must be eliminated first!
In his heart, he must have been, and then the black shadow in his body turned into countless tentacles and attacked Christine.
"Bellโ"
A sharp voice exploded in front of her.
It turned out to be Professor Adolf holding a sharp blade in front of him.
"I don't want the people of the empire to track down the princess because of the death of the princess!"
