Chapter 70: The City of Lorenier (2)
Lu Yuan walked over, and suddenly a stench gushed out, making him frown imperceptibly.
And from the tunnel, elves soon appeared, old and young, men and women, more than ten people.
The men were all ragged and disheveled, and they were even more embarrassed than Nydia.
"Poor people hiding here because they are hiding from Caroline's clutches." Nitya touched an elf boy who had been staring at Lu Yuan, and the boy lowered his head.
"If the Lord is really here to solve the crisis in Rorainier, I may be able to help."
"Oh?" Lu Yuan showed an interested expression.
"You also know that I used to be the lord's handmaiden, and I know a secret passage that can lead directly from the city to the lord's palace, where Caroline studies necromancy, and if she is solved, the crisis in the city of Rorenier can be solved." Nitya whispered.
And such a good thing!
The corners of Lu Yuan's mouth hooked, "Since this is the case, then you can take me there, it is my duty to solve the evil here!" ”
Seeing that the team was almost rested.
And four young men came out of the elves, plus Nitya, to lead the way for them.
Could this be the Elven Leading the Way Party?
These guys are really familiar with the terrain, and they take them to drill around the alleys, and they really don't encounter those ghosts along the way.
After walking for half an hour, they came to a wealthy residential area.
Nitya, on the other hand, led them into an ordinary two-story building.
There was a bit of a clutter inside, some rotting plants on the workbench, and a few scattered tools.
The owner here seems to be an alchemist.
Lu Yuan's eyes were suddenly attracted by an item on the shelf, it was a book.
Lu Yuan pulled it out and gently patted off the dust on it, but the heavy book was not yet rotten.
The first half of the book contains some alchemy tips and techniques, while the back is the diary of an alchemist named Yves.
[Year of the Griffon, May 9. A ghost wolf's lair has appeared outside the city of Lorenier, this is a big threat, the lord has asked us to make some sacred potions, hell, didn't she know that the research on rune mana potions was about to come to fruition! 】
[Year of the Griffon, May 12. The Elven Guard's quest for the Ghost Wolf's lair was not going well, and the Lord decided to send Lord Caroline to bring the alchemist with him. What the hell, are those elven guards all wine bags and rice bags?! 】
[Year of the Griffon, May 14. Lord Caroline is really the genius of the Silver Leaf family, she destroyed the ghost wolf lair, ah, that necklace is so beautiful, and the magical energy on it is even more addictive! 】
[Year of the Griffon, May 17.] Lord Caroline paused the research of the rune mana potion, she wanted to concentrate on the necklace, but the rune mana potion will soon be made in the first batch, is Lord Caroline dizzy? 】
[Year of the Griffon, May 30th.] Without Master Caroline's leadership, the progress of research on rune mana potions had almost come to a standstill. 】
[Year of the Griffon, June 10. Mistress Caroline has decided to lead us on a study of the magic necklace, and oh my God, it's a gift from the god of elves, and there's nothing better in the world! 】
[Year of the Griffon, June 30th.] The research of the magic necklace is in trouble, and there seems to be something bad hidden inside. 】
[Year of the Griffon, July 3rd.] Something is not right. There seems to be an evil spirit living in that necklace, which is terrifying! But Mistress Caroline still refuses to give up research, which is definitely not a good idea! 】
[Year of the Griffon, July 23. Most of the people in the institute have given up on the necklace, knowing that it is not a gift from the god of the elves, but a temptation from evil spirits! 】
[Year of the Griffin, September 5th.] Mistress Caroline has gone mad, she locks herself up day and night, she wants to resurrect her lover, but it's crazy! She's doomed! 】
[Year of the Griffin, December 2. I can't imagine that woman will be Lord Caroline, she is really crazy, for the sake of research, she actually captured civilians and used alchemy to extract their souls, she used to be so kind, so beautiful!
Should I report all this to my lordship? 】
[Year of the Pegasus, January 20th.] I decided to tell my lord all this, because the city was constantly missing, and these poor people were murdered by Caroline.......
I have to stop this. 】
The writing on the back was scribbled and messy, and the alchemist seemed in a hurry.
This alchemist used to work in the alchemy workshop, researching and crafting alchemical potions for the Silver Leaf family.
He also witnessed the transformation of that Caroline.
It all seemed to coincide with Nydia's words.
"My lord, there is a secret passage in the wine cellar below that leads to the lord's mansion." Nitya said.
But the elven girl was surprised when she saw the book in his hand, "This Lord Yves used to be a great alchemist, and this mansion is also a reward for his contributions. ”
"There's Yve's diary, and he records Caroline's changes." Lu Yuan said.
"Mistress Caroline was once a kind and gentle elf, but since she got that terrifying necklace, she has changed! If she can be eliminated, this should also be her relief. Nitya looked a little pained and sad.
Lu Yuan bowed slightly, but he was noncommittal, "Take us into the secret passage." ”
Opening a secret door in the cellar reveals a downward passage.
It's so secretive that even the alchemist named Yves doesn't know about it.
The tunnels are flat and dry, with glowing hedron on top for illumination.
Obviously, this lord has made some arrangements for the secret passage of escape.
After walking in the silent passage for more than ten minutes, Nitya opened another secret door.
Going up the road, Lu Yuan found that they had come to a garden that had been deserted.
The passage sits at the base of a tall oak tree, and through the overgrown courtyard you can see the tall towers that shimmer in the distance.
"My lord, Caroline is doing her evil experiments in the mage tower in front of her, you must stop her." Nitya said earnestly.
"I will." Lu Yuan bowed slightly, and his hand slowly went down.
Grip the hilt.
"Kill them!" Lu Yuan's words were cold without the slightest emotion.
The black war knife was instantly unsheathed, and the sharp sword qi slashed towards the elf girl.
