686 urns
Celestia's laughter was so loud that it could be heard almost throughout the manor.
There were even some tears in the corners of her eyes, which was obviously an expression that only had to hear a big joke. Mu Lin looked at the eldest sister and was extremely unhappy, but she could only puff out her mouth and endure her anger, and did not speak. In her opinion, Beta's words are indeed a bit of a mouthless to say, and it's no wonder that the eldest sister laughs so happily.
"If you talk about beauty, Sasha may be able to give it to you, but money and power." The eldest princess showed a meaningful smile: "I really can't see where she comes from and what qualifications she can give you." ”
At the end of the words, with three points of questioning and seven points of disdain.
"Not to be said in other words, everyone has a different concept of money and power." As if he hadn't heard Celestia's sarcasm, Beta said, "In my opinion, a few gold coins a month is good enough, and I can also get the guards in the manor to do things for me, this is the power I want." I have to have both, who said Princess Sasha can't give it to me. ”
Believe in you to have a ghost!
Princess Celestia and Princess Six both looked at Beta with indifferent eyes.
A dragon vein warlock said that he only needs to spend a few gold coins a month, and some people are very satisfied with running feet...... Anyone who listens to it will think it's a big joke.
"Looks like you're smitten by Sasha's beauty." The eldest princess sighed: "If you want to talk about women, I also have a few women under me, who are much more beautiful than the second sister." If you're interested, I can give it all to you. ”
Although the eldest princess is also a woman, as a superior, she has never regarded ordinary women as women like herself.
In her opinion, she is noble, although she has the identity of a woman, but in essence, she is very different from those untouchables.
The difference in blood, the difference in ability, the difference in soul.
The difference between heaven and earth.
Beta just smiled and didn't answer at all.
The eldest princess waited for a while, and when she saw that Beta did not react, she shook her head helplessly: "Young man who is not self-motivated...... Sixth sister, call your second sister down, just say that I have something I want to talk to her about. ”
"Eldest sister, come up, it just so happens that I also have something I want to talk to you about." Sasha's voice came down from upstairs.
Princess Celestia pursed her lips and made her way up the stairs.
The sixth princess Mu Lin looked at the back of the big princess, snorted softly, then stood on tiptoe, patted Beta's shoulder, and said, "I behave well, I have changed my opinion of you a little, but if you want to match the second sister, you still need to work hard." ”
After speaking, Mu Lin also went upstairs, she was a little worried about the second sister, after all, the eldest sister used to scold the second sister and cry.
Beta returned to her room and began to study the magic on the black coffin.
Time passed quickly, and it was late at night in a blink of an eye, and the eldest princess and the sixth princess had already left, and in the evening, the second princess came up, and at the same time asked the maid to bring dinner.
Beta stretched and climbed into bed to rest, but before she could fall asleep, she suddenly opened her eyes.
At this point, Beta gets the picture that Joan of Arc sends with a telepathic link...... A man in black left the manor and ran at a fast speed towards the outskirts of the city.
Who?
Curious, Beta rolled over, and quietly chased after the guards in the manor without alerting them.
Because Joan of Arc was watching the man in black from the air, even if she was far away from Beta, she would not take it away.
The man in black was supposed to be a woman, tall and graceful.
In addition to the second princess in the manor, there are only a few maids. First of all, the second princess is excluded...... The second princess is petite, more like a girl, and it is impossible to have such a tall figure.
Then there are only a few maids.
Could it be one of them?
Joan of Arc continued to send psychic links, and the man in black went to all the cabins in the suburbs and got in.
Not long afterward, Beta arrived, and when he looked outside the cabin for a while, and seeing that there seemed to be no movement inside, he crept over and looked through the window.
The cabin is not big, and it is dark inside, but because the beta has cloud dragon pupils, it can be seen clearly.
There are only a few pieces of furniture in the house, which is very neat and clean, but there is no human figure in sight.
"I didn't see anyone coming out."
It seemed to hear Beta's heart, and Joan of Arc's voice came from the psychic link.
But there really was no one inside...... Then there is only one possibility, there is a secret passage inside the cabin.
Beta climbed in through the window, and after searching inside for a while, he really let him find an official road, and under the use of mental power to perceive and confirm that there were no traps, he walked down the stone steps of the official road.
This official tunnel is connected to an underground space about 10 meters underground.
Judging by the rather irregular shape of the underground space, it should have been formed naturally. It wasn't a big space, but there were still some stone platforms inside, and most importantly, there were no men in black that Joan of Arc had seen.
Could it be that this space is just a disguise, and the real secret room is not here?
Beta looked around and saw four large wooden bowls with some gray-white dust in them. In addition, next to the four bowls, there was also an urn, Beta was very cautious, he used his mental power to scan this urn several times, and after confirming that there were no traps, he uncovered the lid of the pottery on the urn.
Then his eyes shrank slightly.
There was a head in the urn, and the five princesses looked at Beta at the bottom of the urn.
Beta gently closed the lid of the urn and searched for a while nearby, but there was really no way to find the hidden official road, so he wanted to give up for the time being and come back next time.
But at this moment, there seemed to be a noise on the wall to his left.
Beta's mind moved, ran to a corner, put down the extremely weak spatial coordinates of begging, and then hid in the mansion magic space.
The space of the mansion technique can see the situation outside, and it didn't take long for an earthen wall in the secret room to suddenly flip out of the door, and the woman in black walked out of it, and then returned to its original position, which was no different from its previous appearance.
The woman, who was not wearing a face or a hood, walked out carrying a bag of hemp rope.
Beta saw this woman, she was very beautiful, but her eyes were a little dark, and she seemed to be very unenergetic, which was extremely strange in this environment. Beta had not seen the woman in the manor.
When she came out, her expression suddenly became a little wary, and she took a few heavy breaths, as if she was smelling something.
After sniffing for a while, she went to fetch five wooden bowls, and after examining them, she poured the contents of the sack into the urn, and Beta had a good eye to see that in the sack, a severed limb with blood, or an organ rolled into the urn.
Then the woman hummed an unknown song, and in the silence of the secret room, the voice was terrifying.
After pouring everything into the urn, the woman opened her mouth and blew into the urn, and then she saw a pale blue flame coming out of the urn, and the woman put the lid of the urn up, sat down on the stone platform beside it, and continued to hum a strange song.
After about a few minutes, the woman took out a large wooden bowl from there, placed it next to the other five wooden bowls, then opened the lid of the urn and poured some gray-white dust into the new wooden bowl.
"Those five wooden bowls are full of ashes?"
Beta was amazed, but at the same time glad she hadn't touched those things.
The woman finished emptying the urn and left the secret room. Beta waited for a while, came out of the mansion magic space, and also wanted to leave the secret room, but then found that the hidden door at the entrance of the secret room was actually sealed from the outside, even with Beta's power of up to ten points, there was still no way to open the wooden plank at the entrance.
If it were an ordinary spellcaster or warrior, or even a thief, if this happened, they would definitely be trapped and killed in it.
But Beta is different, when he came to the royal city, he recorded the magic coordinates in the suburbs, and he only needs to teleport directly to get out of this secret room.
"Joan of Arc, you continue to spy on the woman in black and see where she goes."
"Got it, master."
Beta didn't rush to teleport away, but walked to the hidden secret passage, searched left and right, and then found the mechanism that opened the hidden secret passage.
Beta walked in and walked down the stairs for a while, finally to the real underground secret room, a small space that covered an area of about twenty.
On the other side of the walls of the secret room, there were wooden cabinets all over the place, and then there were wooden bowls on them.
Beta walked over and was surprised to find several layers, almost densely packed, wooden bowls filled with some gray-white dust.
Is this a mausoleum?
Beta was puzzled, but then immediately disproved his own assumptions.
If it is a mausoleum, then there will definitely be a list of mutuals. For example, in the Cult of Hades' underground bone tomb, there is a small sign placed on each skull, or on the top of the head.
The sign says who this skull was and what it did when it was alive.
But here, there is nothing, just wooden bowls, bowls of ashes.
Beta searched nearby for a while, but found nothing of value before teleporting out of the chamber.
He was rushing from the suburbs to the second princess's manor, when he suddenly received a spiritual text message from Joan of Arc.
"Master, the woman is gone."
"Lost?" Beta thought for a moment and asked, "Where did the man disappear?" ”
"Near the center of town."
Beta paused, recalled the topographical map of the city, and found that the place where the woman disappeared was closest to the royal palace, followed by the estate of the eldest princess.
"Joan of Arc, you have to work hard these days, help me keep an eye on the eldest princess's manor, if there is any strange movement, you must tell me."
"Okay, no problem." Joan of Arc's maiden voice said, "But you'll buy me some beautiful clothes, I'll be able to use them soon." ”
Beta was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "What do you mean?" You're about to turn into a human? ”
"The host...... You were excited, weren't you...... You pervert, stay away from me. ”
