Chapter 226 225. Exploring the Survivors of the Castle
Of course, maybe this is just his guess.
But... it's not a bad thing to think about the worst. At least it can keep you alert and make some preparations in advance.
After all, life is precious...
Throwing these thoughts away, Trium began to think about how to prepare for tonight's gourmet bonfire banquet.
...
Wednesday morning.
Ubermo picked up a somewhat worn badge from the table, looked at it carefully, and then said, "Where did you get this?"
This badge was not on the task list, and it belonged to a noble, which made Ubermo a little concerned.
Olab looked at the boss in front of him and replied, "I found the notes left by Mezi in his home at the corner of Solat Lane in Zell District, and picked it up outside."
Mezi is an old man with a decadent life. His hands and feet are still flexible, but he stays at home every day and hides his body under a blanket.
Maybe one or two kind people will provide some leftover rice soup.
Jiepoyi, a neighbor of Meiqi, lived in poverty. He helped Meiqi several times and had occasional conversations with Meiqi. But he found that the other party was a little strange, as if hiding some secrets.
Meiqi also hesitated when speaking, as if there was something unspeakable. And one night, Jiepoyi accidentally heard Meiqi mumbling outside the window, as if it was about some treasure, but the notebook was hidden by him.
Jiepoyi was naturally very interested in this treasure, but before he could get some secrets from Meiqi, Meiqi was about to die.
He hurriedly asked him about the secret, but the other party's face was blue-black, his eyes were full of fear, and he kept muttering: "Death... Don't kill me..."
Jiepoyi suddenly felt a little scared. This was not something he could get involved in.
Because... Jiepoyi was fleeing.
So when he heard the name of the "Eye of Secrets" exchange, he quickly traded the news to Ubemo, and then left that place with the money he got.
The emblem of the Linn family... Ubermo confirmed the origin of the emblem and said, "You may have to be careful recently."
After hearing the other party's words, although Olabor didn't know the specific reason, he still showed a trace of solemnity on his face, and then said, "I will pay attention."
Since he accepted this job, it was destined to be accompanied by risks, and he had expected it.
Ubermo nodded, and then said, "If there is danger, you can find me."
Ubermo just thought about the worst, but in fact, Meqi just died of natural causes, which means it is not serious.
Immediately, he asked, "What did you see after you went in?"
Olabor recalled and replied, "Only Meqi's body and the dirty room... The notebook was found inside the damaged clock."
Ubermo still recognized Olabor's ability.
Then, he continued to ask: "Did you find anything strange on Meqi?"
"Strange things?"
Olabor repeated, then recalled, shook his head and said: "No."
After handing the settled salary to Olabor, a look of joy appeared on his face. He could not resist the charm of money.
After Olabor left, Ubemo put down the badge belonging to the Lin family.
From the picture presented by this badge, Ubemo could see that Meqi seemed to have contacted Dekoen, but there were too few pictures, and the specific content of their conversation was not clear.
And Dekoen was dead.
In the Jiagui Forest, he was killed by Ubemo himself.
Bailinghu's full name is Bailinghu Linn, and Dekoen has a connection with Bailinghu. Now he has obtained the badge of the Lin family from Meqi, as well as clues that he is connected with Dekoen.
"Bailinghu..." Ubemo murmured.
Ubermo found that he seemed to have underestimated Bailinghu. He was the youngest son of Count Hemei. Although he did not inherit the glory of the Linn family, he still obtained the title through his own efforts.
Obviously, Bailinghu was not that simple.
But it seemed that the other party had always been like a transparent person.
Immediately, Ubermo thought of what Lariya said in the carriage last time. She and Nanafi were subordinates of Bailinghu, and Dekoen was also related to Bailinghu.
But it seemed that this had always been the responsibility of Sander, that is, Ivdes. No matter how you look at it, these people seemed to have always been Ivdes's men.
But it was under the name of Bailinghu, which made Ubermo wonder whether Ivdes was clever and made Bailinghu empty, or whether Bailinghu didn't care at all?
There were no fools among these nobles. Perhaps those low-level nobles didn't understand much about the extraordinary. But in Yuri, people like Count Hemei must have some understanding, and their subordinates must have a force.
Hiding this thought, Ubemo looked at a notebook that was somewhat new, but a little wrinkled.
This was the notebook left by Mezzi. It was not a diary, and the handwriting was very new. It should have been written by Mezzi himself recently.
Bar Book 69 New
"We found death. There is the castle of the god of death. We angered the god, and he sent down divine punishment... If they die, everyone will die... Including me..."
"I survived by chance, but I know I am about to die... I beg for your forgiveness... I beg you..."
When Ubemo saw this, he did not feel the joy of escaping death, but only regret, fear of the gods, and the kind of extremely humble pleading.
--Pleading the god of death to let him go.
"The castle of the god of death..." Ubemo whispered softly, and then his eyes lit up, as if he thought of something.
The castle that Mezi was talking about was most likely the ancient castle of Vikingbe.
From Olabor's words, Ubemo guessed that Mezi should not be a transcendent, and he did not precipitate any special objects. As for whether it was taken away by someone, the probability is a bit low.
If it is most likely, it should be taken away by Jepoyi, but Ubemo did not feel the spiritual fluctuations during the transaction.
If Jepoyi had just become a transcendent, then he would not be able to control his spiritual fluctuations at all, and it would be very easy to be discovered.
But he did not.
Moreover, based on Ubemo's analysis of Jepoyi's expression at the time, the other party should not have obtained other useful things, such as special objects.
Moreover, Jepoyi only observed some of Mezi's performance and traded the news out of fear.
When faced with unknown things like special objects, they will be more afraid and come to trade with Ubermo.
So, Mezzi should be an ordinary person, and participated in the exploration of Viking Castle at that time. In the end, he survived by chance, and then stayed in the room because of fear and dared not go out.
His death was most likely due to fear.
There is no value in pursuing this matter. After all, he also participated and took some jewelry.
…
"Banky, prepare the carriage, we will go to the library later." Ubermo dressed neatly and said to Banky.
The carriage is the face of the upper class people, representing whether their wealth is sufficient and whether their status is high or low.
In the upper class, there is a saying that people sitting in the carriage hold up their glasses and look down at the pedestrians, leaving them far behind.
This sentence reflects the importance of the carriage very well.
Ubermo's previous actions were all secretive, so most of the time he didn't use it when he went out, but when he needed a carriage a few times, someone provided it. But this doesn't mean that he doesn't have it. It's impossible that he needs to take Smith's carriage every time he goes out.
But to be honest, Ubemo doesn't care much about this aspect. If it weren't for Banky's request, Ubemo wouldn't even have the desire to buy a carriage until now.
Although Banky calls himself the master, it doesn't mean that the other party is a slave. This is just Yuri's unique name. They still need to respect each other. Banky is a good housekeeper, so sometimes he won't interfere with Ubemo's decision, but sometimes he will ask Ubemo to do something for the sake of face.
For example, for a luxurious carriage, Ubemo has no restrictions on the budget, but also requires not to be so high-profile.
Banky is responsible for everything in the house, and he has hardly met some servants. Especially the coachman, who gets paid but doesn't have to work, not to mention how comfortable it is.
"What's your name?" Ubemo stood by the carriage, and on a whim, he felt it necessary to get to know him. He immediately looked at the middle-aged man who was neatly dressed and wearing a round hat and said softly.
The coachman was a little nervous when he heard this. He quickly bent down and said, "My name is Qidora."
Ubemo nodded, and then encouraged, "Not bad, keep it up."
Qidora nodded quickly, showing a trace of joy, and then said, "Yes, yes!"
Ubemo immediately stepped into the carriage and sat in the comfortable and spacious seat. Ubemo picked up the books that Banki had prepared in advance. This time he wanted to find more information about the Dilafi Peak in the library.
After all, this is responsible for his younger brother.
Ubemo sighed a little. It's still good for Trium. He doesn't have to worry about it. He just said a word to fool the other party, and the other party was grateful.
He also provided some potions and made a huge contribution to the development of Chaldea.
And the "secret" Horus also needs his help to solve the problem of life safety. If he didn't know a little more, maybe he could only watch the other party being calculated to death.
But this is not the end. Destiny is real. When you provoke something, you are likely to encounter it again and again.
Especially behind this may be the Book of Death and Damonas.
However, in order to maintain the mystery of being a "dream weaver", he did not ask too many details at the time, and the other party only mentioned it briefly.
So for this place involving Damonas, Ubemo felt that he still had to learn more about it.
The library is a good place. There may be no obvious answers, but many clues can be combined, and some information can be obtained by using "spying".
