Chapter 56 The Secret Passage

"It's nothing." Klein smiled gently.

He didn't seem to notice it at all, but his thoughts were spinning rapidly, thinking about what the instantaneous change just now represented:

Previously, those internal guards went upstairs along the nearby stairs. It can be preliminarily judged that they live there, which coincides with the location where the change occurred just now... The state of the internal guards is not quite right, so the probability of losing control is greater than normal The Extraordinary, would suddenly show malice and evil thoughts?

And this was forcibly suppressed or smoothed down by the sealed core behind the Chanis Gate deep underground?

If this is the case, there are two possibilities. One is that the sealed core behind the Chanis Gate can sense all the abnormal changes inside St. Samuel Church and react instinctively. The other is that the internal guards are on duty all year round. In the process of being constantly eroded by the power of the sealed core, it has become a part of the other party to some extent, or bears the corresponding speciality. Once there is a mutation, it will immediately attract the intervention of the main body.

If it is the former, it means that when I stun the inner watchman to replace him, it is easy to be detected by the sealing core behind the Chanis gate, causing it to change as before, making things fail just at the beginning. Or, when entering the Chanis Gate, my disguised inner watchman will inevitably be repelled...

You must first figure out what the problem is before you can come up with a targeted solution...

It is really difficult to steal sealed items inside various churches, no wonder almost no one is willing to do it...

Klein was full of thoughts, and listened attentively to Bishop Electra's story about Saint Samuel's experience and the letters he left behind. He didn't politely leave until it was almost time.

Back at No. 160 Boklund Street, he had just handed over his top hat and cane to Richardson when he saw Mr. Butler greet him.

"Sir, do you want to hold a dance or dinner next weekend and invite the neighbors around?" Walter didn't use the tone of suggestion, and seemed to be asking simply.

But Klein is very clear that since Mr. Steward raised this matter, it means that it is time to do it.

He nodded lightly and said:

"Saturday night, prom.

"I'm going to trouble you and Tanya to make some preparations in advance.

"Is there enough money at home?"

When he said the last sentence, Klein looked sideways at the housekeeper.

Tanya nodded solemnly and said:

"enough.

"The variety of alcoholic beverages in your wine cellar can handle several banquets."

When he moved to No. 160 Boklund Street, Klein had given her 1,000 pounds in cash for the house. At present, even if he needed to replenish items such as fine wine, tea, and coffee beans, he would definitely not be able to use them up in a month.

The gold pound is still very strong... Klein nodded, smiled and said:

"Don't open too expensive wine for the first time, Ruen's habit is to be reserved."

"Yes, sir." Although Walter knew exactly how to organize a dance, he still listened to his employer's instructions very seriously.

He paused, then said:

"There are only two things you need to do. One is to draw up a guest list with our assistance, and think of a greeting for each person, which must be in line with the identity and experience of the other party. The other is to order a set of formal attire for the ball."

It's really troublesome... When I greeted Hazel, can I say, the sewer here is cleaner than the square in the Southern Continent? While sighing and slandering, Klein nodded slightly and said:

"no problem."

…………

In the dead of night, with the crimson moon hanging high, Backlund, whose smog has thinned a lot, presents a sense of tranquil beauty.

In Dwayne Dantès' master bedroom, Klein arranged a ceremony and summoned himself.

He's going into the sewer tonight to make sure Triss is gone,

And go to the fork road described by the other party, explore the so-called hidden passage, and see what you can find.

Klein didn't expect extra gains, but was worried that the secret hidden in this sewer was a hidden danger, and it would be detonated one day, and this would easily implicate Dawn Dantès who lived nearby, destroying his theft of Antioch. Operation of the Kornus Family Notes.

In this kind of matter, you can't be an ostrich, bury your head in the sand, and pretend you didn't see anything... Find the problem as soon as possible, before it breaks out completely, destroy it, report it, this is the most effective The method... Of course, you must be careful enough not to let your own exploration behavior become the fuse... Klein's spirit body drilled out of the candle, and with the help of Azik's copper whistle, he possessed Dawn in front of him. Dantès' physical body manipulated him to walk to the edge of the "spiritual wall" and sit on the easy chair.

From the outside world, this is equivalent to a millionaire reading a newspaper and falling asleep, forgetting to go to bed.

The summoned soul possessed his own body, and it did not feel the same as returning directly to the body. There was a clear sense of separation... Klein compared the experience, floated back to the desk, and packed most of the items on the altar. Leave only the candle that sustains the call, and let it burn quietly.

After finishing all of this, Klein wore "Squirming Hunger", integrated the Azik copper whistle, "Death Knell" revolver, and Senor gold coins, flew out of the master bedroom, left No. 160 Boklund Street from mid-air, drilled into the sewer.

As soon as Klein was in the humid and dirty environment, he immediately released the "wraith" Senor, manipulated the secret puppet to distance himself, and turned into the hidden fork where Triss was recuperating.

This time, he saw that the area that was too clean to look like a sewer area was stained and infested with rats.

"It seems that Triss is really gone..." Klein, who was far behind, breathed a sigh of relief.

As a spirit body, he doesn't need to breathe or walk on the ground, so he doesn't care how bad the environment in the sewer is.

"Resentful Soul" Senior turned around and walked out of that area, continued to move forward, and found the sixth fork that turned left. Klein always kept a distance of more than 50 meters from him, fully playing the role of the behind-the-scenes manipulative role.

At the end of the fork in the road, there is a wall with dark moss and obvious corrosion. At a glance, there is nothing abnormal. If Triss hadn't mentioned it, Klein would never let the secret puppet explore every inch of it in detail.

A few minutes later, Senor, who was wearing a dark red coat, suddenly straightened up, stepped forward, and walked into the wall.

Through the thicker barrier, Klein's eyes suddenly opened up. With the help of the marionette's vision, he saw a semi-natural and semi-artificial cave. It was less than 1.8 meters high and 3 meters wide. There was a cave wrapped in oilcloth on the ground. Utensils such as shovels are piled with a lot of dirt and gravel, and there are two hidden passages extending diagonally in front of them.

The one on the left is only five or six meters deep, and the one on the right is nearly ten meters deep, but there is nothing there, and it seems that they are still being excavated.

This is what Hazel made? A high-society proud lady by day, but a digger in the sewer by night, and has to move buckets of dirt and gravel? Her wandering was to find the exact spot, and digging was the next step? There should be a secret door on the wall just now... Klein leaned against the hidden place outside the side road and manipulated Senior to look around carefully.

Then, he let the "Wraith" enter the secret passage on the left, and walked all the way to the end where the mud and rocks were layered and airtight.

Senor's figure gradually faded, and he no longer had a sense of real existence. He walked through the soil in front of him in this form, exploring the depths.

But until he approached the 100-meter limit, he found nothing worth noting, only some ordinary insects.

Klein then asked Secret Puppet to change direction and "swim" around in the mud sea, but still got nothing.

"Resentful Soul" Senor quickly returned to the cave just now, and entered the hidden passage on the right without being affected by obstacles.

"There is still nothing unusual... It is not unreasonable for Triss to judge that a specific path or possession of a specific item is necessary... Well, she should have explored with the invisible thread of the 'Witch of Pleasure'... What a pity, my 'Tinder' I've lost my gloves... I don't know if the gray mist breath on my body is okay, it seems to be very attractive to extraordinary people of the 'thief' path..." Klein said a few words to himself silently, wanting to take advantage of the spirit body form now, Explore the two hidden passages suspected to be dug out by Hazel.

However, he restrained this impulse, because he is now a "Secret Puppet Master", and it is against the rules of acting to play in real life when it is not necessary.

"It's fine if you don't rely on the gray mist breath. At the Tarot Club tomorrow afternoon, just buy a magical item from the 'Thief' path. It doesn't need to be too expensive, and the ones corresponding to Sequence 9 and Sequence 8 will do... Well, Lan Erwu That badge is just a signal receiver, an item that does not belong to this path... If you don't know what is hidden in the depths of the hidden passage, if you rashly use your own spirit body to explore, it may lead to some high-sequence monsters... Prudence and caution are always timeless self-requirements..." Klein sighed slowly, and withdrew the "wraith" Senor.

He wasn't worried that Hazel would continue to come until he found a way to deal with the situation last time, and humans with normal IQs would not continue to come!

Not to mention whether Hazel has been in contact with the Beyonder circle, even if she has, it is not that easy to get items in the "Sun" domain. After all, Backlund is the territory of the Church of the Storm... There is something wrong with me. Commonly used, huh, find a chance to sell it to her, and then use it to hurt my secret puppet? Klein made fun of himself, smiled and shook his head.

He immediately ended the summoning, returned directly above the gray mist, and disappeared into the sewer.

…………

On Monday morning, the bright sunshine penetrated the thin clouds and sprinkled every corner of Backlund.

Emlyn White pulled down his silk top hat, and while leaving the carriage, walked towards the Harvest Church, half-closed his eyes and muttered:

"The weather is terrible...

"Becklund's worst season is coming soon..."

He was about to step up the steps when he suddenly saw a newspaper boy approaching him and handed him a copy of the "Tasoke News" saying:

"Sir, this morning's paper!"

Emlyn was about to refuse, but found that the other party was holding a small piece of paper with his fingers holding the newspaper.

...Emlyn calmly took out a 1-penny copper coin, handed it to the other party, and took the "Tasoke" and the note.

Before entering Harvest Church, he quickly unfolded the latter and browsed through it:

"The person you're looking for has clues, please come to the Bar of the Brave."
