Chapter 11: The Hidden Place in the Treasure Room

After returning Roy to the lord's mansion, Mira returned to the convoy.

It's fine to leave for a short time, but if you leave for too long, you might arouse the suspicion of those behind the scenes.

The purpose of Roy and Mira's "show" this time is naturally to attract the people behind the scenes.

For the sake of the authenticity of the effect, Roy even entered the prisoner cart himself, and followed the prisoner cart all the way out of the city during the daytime.

Of course, he didn't waste this time, "breathing" in the closed prison car, condensing the fighting energy in his body.

After a whole day, there were 160 more threads of Dou Qi in his body, plus the original 6 threads, a total of 166 Dou Qi.

16.6% progress in the Bronze rank!

I have to say, the witch race high!

Absorbing the magic from the white-haired silver-eyed witch Ace and the fox-eared witch Elena, it also continued to nourish Roy's physique during this time, making his body stronger.

After nightfall, Mira led him back to the lord's mansion quickly.

The speed of the Silver Knight is much faster than that of a slow prisoner cart, not to mention, Mira is not an ordinary Silver Knight, but the captain of the Silver Three-Star Divine Punishment Knight.

As for the prisoner in the prison car at the moment, a servant who was about the same size as Roy had already been arranged.

Let the servant change into Roy's clothes, and ruffle his hair to hide his face, so that it is impossible to tell the real from the fake.

As for a closer look?

With two Templars on the side, who would dare to go up and find them uncomfortable?

The net has been weaved, and the next thing is the hunter's patience and waiting time.

……

Lord's Mansion, Treasure Room.

Roy came here alone with a kerosene lamp, and the dim light was not enough to completely illuminate the room, but fortunately, his physical fitness was comparable to that of a senior formal knight, and his eyesight was much better, so it was not a big problem.

Three days ago, Roy had entered the area to search for "magic items", but had not found anything of value at the time, and the brass-colored key that Rami had handed him proved that the treasure room clearly had a "hidden place" that he had missed in his last search.

This time, he had to find out!

By the light of the kerosene lamp, Roy swept the treasure room inch by inch, not sparing any corner.

The treasure room is not large, only a hundred square meters, mainly piled up some gold and silver property, mainly copper coins, silver coins second, gold coins are even less, and there are more than a dozen metal armor and weapons hanging on the shelves, it is not difficult to search.

Half an hour later, Roy, who had searched the entire treasure room up and down again, fell into a state of "doubting his life".

This time he was very sure that he had missed a single place, but he had not found any "hidden places" at all.

It's not the way to keep looking like this!

Roy paused and began to think.

Since Lord Blackstone had already stated in his letter that there was a hidden place in the treasure room, there was no doubt that there was a deeper "secret treasure room" that was difficult to find on the surface.

Such a treasure room would certainly not be found in ordinary ways at present.

There is a high probability that it will appear in a specific way, and this way must be able to prove identity.

And from Lord Blackstone's point of view, what is the best way to verify identity?

In addition to the bloodline, there is no doubt that it is the Burst Flame Breathing Method.

In the entire Tulumbuir family, except for the Lord himself and Red, no one else had mastered the Burst Flame Breathing Method, at least until the Lord left the Blackstone Territory.

Those knights who are loyal to the Turumbuir family, except for Red, who has been a knight of the lord's squire since he was a child, who has been given an advanced breathing method - the Burst Flame Breathing Method, the other knights are only elementary breathing methods.

To be rewarded with advanced breathing, these knights had to serve the Tulumbuir family for thirty years.

This sounds like a bit of a harsh condition, but in fact, it is already an opportunity that many civilian knights cannot hope for.

Therefore, if such a "secret treasure trove" really exists, then it must be possible to find it by using the bloodline + explosive flame breathing method as an introduction.

In Lord Blackstone's mind, the most trusted person is naturally Roy as his son, followed by his squire Knight Red.

In this world, the relationship between a knight and a squire knight is not a master and servant, but more like a teacher and a disciple, and the two sides are very close.

In Lord Blackstone's cognition, Roy naturally doesn't know how to breathe, but he has the bloodline of the Tulumbuir family, while Red has the Explosive Flame Breathing Method, if the two appear in the family treasure room together, the double verification of "Bloodline + Explosive Flame Breathing Method" will meet the conditions.

But if that's the case, why didn't Lord Blackstone directly mention letting Red follow him into the treasure room in his letter?

Roy's mind crossed the question.

Lord Blackstone, who knew that Roy had not mastered the Burst Flame Breathing Method, naturally knew that even if he gave Roy the key, it would be impossible for him to find the entrance to the "Hidden Land" without mastering the Burst Flame Breathing Method.

Could it be that there is something in this "hidden place" that even Red can't tell?

Or maybe Lord Blackstone's original intention was not to let the now weak Roy know what was buried in the "Hidden Place"?

Suppressing his thoughts, Roy prepares to try.

He has the bloodline himself, and the Burst Flame Breathing Method, now he has mastered it.

In other words, he could have found this "hidden place" on his own!

"Whew...... Suck ......"

As his mind calmed down, Roy's breathing rate began to change, and he entered a state of "Burst Flame Breathing".

The breath ripples, invisible to the naked eye, caused a strange change in this treasure room.

High up in the corners of the surrounding walls, a faint blue candlelight suddenly lit up on the lamps that had been extinguished, and after a few seconds, the candles converged to form an "X" shape, and a pillar of light descended from the intersection point, reflecting a half-virtual and half-real portal.

Roy looked at the scene in amazement.

This kind of change is very similar to the "magic array" in various film and television works in his previous life.

Are there any other techniques for using magic......

He thought thoughtfully.

On the semi-illusory portal that appeared in front of him, there was a depression of a palm imprint, which seemed to be a second way of resealing the identity, requiring the opener to press his palm on it.

Roy didn't hesitate, stretched out his right hand and pressed it into the depression.

In the next moment, he felt a slight pain in his fingertips, and something sharp pierced his skin.

A drop of blood flowed from his fingertips, smearing a faint circle of blood on the semi-illusory portal.

As if the identity verification had been completed, the blue light on the lamps around the corner of the wall shone brightly, illuminating the door from illusion to reality, and revealing the real keyhole.

The hidden place in the treasure room has appeared!
