"Two pounds a week~~ need to press six weeks' rent~~"

Downey muttered to himself as he stood in an apartment building, patiently listening to the staff of the real estate trading company tell him about the apartment.

Since Lawrence did not set up a safe house in the city of Mizzuri, Downey had to find his own place.

It's well lit, it's large, it's decorated in the style of the Rose Kingdom, it's adjacent to the industrial area of Myzuri, the two areas are separated by a Farabbe River, and a bridge is just around the corner for Donnie's nighttime movement.

To put it simply, Donnie thinks it's pretty good, and given his starting capital, renting it is also a good option.

But at this time, the little brother who was a little talkative was a little hesitant.

"Mr. Nathan, if you have the money, I personally don't recommend renting this place, but please don't react to what I've said to the company."

The young man was a little nervous, and then said, "This once belonged to an elderly scholar, who died eight months ago and returned to the arms of the god of knowledge. ”

Hearing him say this, Donnie became a little curious about this place.

"Is the security here not good, and someone is eyeing this poor old man?"

The young man shook his head again and again and said, "No, Mr. Colbert died of natural causes, he was too old to withstand the toss, and finally went to other worlds by the fire." ”

"Then why doesn't it fit here?" Donnie asked curiously.

"After Mr. Coubert passed away, his house was inherited by a relative, and we were entrusted with renting it out, and because of the topography of the place, the rent was higher at first, and it was quickly rented out."

"But then, the factory management who rented this place told us that at night, sometimes there are strange noises and even the phenomenon of items being displaced."

"After many tenants' feedback, I think it may be true, although the rent here has fallen to the lowest, but housing is a big deal after all."

"If you're on a higher budget and don't have a lot of location requirements, Dawn Housing has a better option in Midtown."

Donnie looked at the young man in front of him, what he said should be true, of course, there may be other intentions in it.

"You don't have to look at it, it's here, I won't stay here for long."

-------------------------------------

After about twenty minutes, Downey finished the contract and sent away the young man who didn't have a name.

This is the first place where Downey runs, and if you look at it according to the concept of shopping around, it is definitely not up to standard.

But I have to say that the classical decoration style is more in line with Downey's heart, especially the books on the shelves are more to Downey's appetite.

The deceased old man was actually a teacher of occultism at the University of Mizuri, and he was said to be a professor. He left behind some occult books, just in time for Downey to read.

In fact, these books are expensive, and in this world, knowledge requires a lot of money to obtain.

But the real estate company and Cobbert's relatives didn't seem to care about them, and just made a rough estimate, and the real estate company would come and do an appraisal when Downey left.

Downey didn't think the previous tenants had ever touched the books.

In fact, after learning that Colbert was a teacher of occultism at Mizuri University, Downey wanted to give up here for a moment.

Because Colbert's profession determines that he is likely to be a transcendent, if he is really transcendent, and something unusual happens after his death, then after a while, it may become an urban weirdo.

Donnie wanted to avoid it, but he quickly realized that he had come here to find those transcendent beings, and it was not advisable to avoid nature.

This apartment is located in the Falabetta district of Mizuri, which means the area along the river, and the apartment is located on a street called Lamb Street, which is not a quiet street.

Downey's apartment is located on the fourth floor, with views of the industrial area across the Farabbe River and views of Lamb Street.

At this point, the afternoon sun pierced the faint dark clouds and shone on Donnie from the window.

The rocking chair has a soft cushion that makes a slight 'creaking' sound when it shakes.

The steaming coffee on the small table next to it is exuding a rich aroma.

Downey, on the other hand, snores softly in the sun.

When he woke up, it was already dark and the stars were bright, Donnie opened his eyes and drank the cold coffee in one gulp.

"Whew~~~" Donnie exhaled deeply and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The reason Donnie was sweating was not because of the midsummer weather, but because he had a nightmare.

More than just a nightmare, to be precise.

Downey vaguely remembered where he had been, the scorched remains of ruins.

He stood among the ruins and looked around, and not far away was a deep ditch, and on the opposite side was another ruin.

If I have to say it, I can sum it all up in a way that is full of desolation.

Donnie didn't see anyone show up, he was alone from start to finish.

Gradually, Donnie found that the ruins gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Eventually, Downey discovers exactly what the ruins are.

It was where his rented apartment was, and not far from the deep ditch was the Farabbe River, but it had dried up completely.

When Downey recognizes what the hell this is, the real-life Downey wakes up.

"Is it true that I am seeing a scene in the spirit world?"

Downey closed the open book on the small table, pinching the bridge of his nose in thought.

Each place is in the spiritual realm, and the corresponding scene is different.

If it's a city, whether it's the knowledge that the occult skills bring to Donnie or the situation in the secret realm three hundred years later, most of them are like Oakford (the spirit world).

However, special circumstances can cause a change in the scene of the spirit world, such as a battle between powerful transcendents or strange spirits.

The scene in reality will also change the scene in the spirit world, and in short, it is normal for the spirit world to change.

The only question is why I dream about the spirit world.

Donnie frowned and thought carefully, feeling that there was a high probability that the changes in the spirit world were too large, so that the transcendents and weirdness of the more powerful spirits in reality were noticed.

But this needs to be confirmed by Downey, as a [trainee wizard], Downey does not have the witchcraft to protect his body after his spirit travel, and in this apartment, it is likely that there are strange things that Downey failed to discover, and it is very risky for Downey to travel here.

So Donnie decided to go out and find a quiet place where the spirits could check it out.
