After the consciousness body rushed out of the room, Richard controlled a sharp rise, and after a while, he climbed to a height of several hundred meters, where he could take in the entire city of St. Louis in his eyes, and the brilliant starry sky above his head gave people a sense of insignificance.

But Richard was not in the mood to feel all this, so he looked around, looked in the right direction, and followed his memory towards the manor he had visited outside St. Louis.

"Brush, brush, brush—"

The consciousness moved rapidly in control, and in a moment it was above the manor outside the city.

Through the unique vision of the conscious body, Richard was able to see the manor in more detail.

The size of the manor is indeed large, previously estimated to be four or five times the size of the Blue Lagoon Manor, but adding the inadvertently neglected part of the sunken terrain may reach six times the size of the Blue Lagoon Manor.

Of these, about one-third is lake water, another third is densely wooded, and the remaining one-third is overgrown wilderness.

In the field, three stone buildings that were clearly in disrepair stood, swaying slightly in the night wind, and the outer walls were covered with dense cracks, and from time to time stone chips peeled off, like abandoned orphans.

However, what is somewhat surprising is that there are lights on in this stone building at this time.

Richard controlled his consciousness and moved to the window where the light was on, and saw an old man sitting in a chair with a hunched body, his eyes looking at the rough wall, and he didn't know what he was muttering.

Is this Aaron Pompo?

Richard guessed? and then denied.

The other party's body did not have any mana fluctuations, and he was also wearing the clothes of a servant, definitely not Aaron Pompo.

Aaron Pombo should have been somewhere else on the manor—a more secluded place.

Where?

Richard's mind moved, and his consciousness sank downward, sinking directly into the soil and searching.

He seriously suspected that there was a hidden passage under the three stone towers, which connected to Aaron Pompo's hiding place.

"Found it!"

A few minutes later, Richard let out a voice in his heart, entered a dug tunnel—the entrance to which was the basement of the stone building where the old servant had been.

As for where it leads, you have to explore it to find out.

Without hesitation, Richard moved his consciousness and walked quickly along the corridor.

This line is a full kilometer, and Richard estimates that he has reached a depth of dozens of meters underground before finally seeing the end.

At the end of the line is a black metal gate, four meters high and more than five meters wide, with intricate magic patterns carved on the surface, which is not ordinary at first glance. Richard guessed that if he wanted to forcibly destroy the metal gate and enter it, he was afraid that even ordinary three-ring spells would not work.

It also shows that what's inside is very important.

However, he didn't have to break the gate to get in now, he just had to ......

Richard moved his consciousness closer to the gate, his hands blended into the gate little by little, and then he pulled a little harder, and the whole person seemed to pass through a layer of viscous glue, through the metal gate, and into the gate.

Looking back at the metal gate, Richard had figured out the thickness of the metal gate—more than thirty centimeters—and the weight of this thickness alone was not something that ordinary people could open.

But he only glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and focused more on the inside of the door.

Inside the door is a medium-sized hall of several hundred square meters, with wooden shelves and numerous books and scrolls on the wooden shelves.

In the deepest part of the hall, about a third of the area is vacant, and there is a lot of furniture, including wooden beds, wooden tables, and wooden chairs.

At this moment, an old man with a white beard was sitting at a wooden table, holding a quill pen and writing something on a piece of papyrus. Occasionally, he would pause and glance at a few open books next to him, with a thoughtful expression.

In the corner of the table, there were a lot of dishes piled up, and there were leftovers in them—Richard could recognize the ones that Anne had asked the chef to make for the second time in the city's restaurant.

His speculation was confirmed.

Anne did bring food to people, so she came to this manor.

Not surprisingly, the old man with white hair is Aaron Pompo.

It seems that the other party should not have broken through to the fourth-level wizard, and if the breakthrough is successful, there will be no need to eat food. Looking at the behavior of the other party now, it is likely that after the breakthrough failed, he knew that there was no chance of breaking through again, and pinned his hope on the younger members of the Pang Bo family. What he keeps writing should be some experience to help the young Pang Bo family members better improve their strength.

After a few glances, Richard withdrew his gaze and did not try to get close to Alan Pombo, after all, a third-level wizard still needs to pay attention, and maybe he may discover the existence of his consciousness body.

His main purpose here was to find the Book of the Void, and if he couldn't find it, he had to think of something else.

Thinking about it, Richard moved his consciousness to the nearest bookshelf and browsed the contents of the book. When you come across those books stacked together, you dive straight into them and browse them with your face peeled.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes......

In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed.

Richard noticed that Aaron Pompo, who was sitting behind his desk, had changed to a new piece of papyrus to write, but he found nothing - no books from the Book of the Void, and no books that appeared to be the Book of the Void.

Looking at the remaining half of the bookshelves, Richard adjusted his mood, did not get anxious, and was ready to continue working hard.

Just then, he heard a movement from the black metal door at the entrance to the hall.

Someone's coming?

Curiously, Richard moved his consciousness through the soil and bypassed the gate into the corridor outside the door. Then I saw that the old servant in the stone building I had seen before was pressing one hand on the metal door.

The entire metal gate was touched by the old servant, and the surface flashed with a deep blue luster, as if the water of the whole ocean was gushing out. Then the metal door slammed, and the tip of a needle, like a mosquito's mouth, stabbed the old servant's hand, drawing out an extremely fine drop of blood.

The blood melted into the metal door, as if it had passed some verification, and the dark blue luster on the surface quickly converged, and then opened with a "squeak".

The old servant saw that he was not surprised, and walked into the door with a basket bent over.

Richard followed him, not afraid of the other party's detection.

Inside the door, Alan Pompo, who had heard the voice, had already looked up, Richard had flashed into the corner to be a spectator, and the old servant was walking towards Arlen Pompo's position.

"Click, click, click......"

The old servant staggered to Alan Pompo's table, and without saying a word, silently picked up Aaron Pompo's leftover plates, and put them all into the basket he had brought, apparently ready to be taken away for cleaning.

Alan Pompo began to write on the papyrus again, and after a while he casually asked the old servant, "Feige, is the boy Annie gone?"

"Smack!"

With a soft sound, the old servant named Feige put the last plate in the basket and replied, "Go, master." ”

After a pause, Feige added, "It's been a while, master. Before leaving, Miss Anne also said something to me and persuaded me to go back to the family residence to retire. ”

"That's it. Alan Pompo narrowed his eyes, looked up and asked, "What do you think?"
