Chapter 41: Awakening II
Countess Ilya sent a lot of things.
Half of the fruits in this world are known to Stephen, and the other half do not know but have tasted similar. River fish and shrimp are relatively large in size, and freshwater fish are similar in appearance. It is worth mentioning that the shrimps in this world are very large, close to the size of the palm of an adult, and they look like big lobsters and can easily pinch off human fingers. Vegetables are relatively barren. Indigenous people in this world have not domesticated too many vegetables, and tossing and turning are just a few types of cabbage, lettuce, or radish. The most frustrating thing is that there are no chili peppers in the north, which is very expensive and can only be shipped from the south.
Steven tasted it, and picked out a big red apple.
Apples are a good thing. They are not only nutritious but also have other uses. The Stephen family has a unique alchemy technique that can make ordinary apples into a powerful rare treasure.
Now the platform and stairs of the mining area have been completed.
The guards sent by the Countess of Eliya were a little dumbfounded when they looked at the big change in the mining area. They couldn’t believe that such a big change had happened in the silver mine in just a few days. A neat marble staircase reaches halfway up the mountain, the platform has more than doubled, and a three-story house has been built, and it looks like it is going to continue to build up. They don’t know what the mine rails are, but when they look at this steel rail, they feel a little unconscious. The awe of the wizard made these guards dare not ask too much, but the changes here are indeed a bit beyond their imagination.
Astonishment for the aborigines Stephen didn’t care, as if the ancients saw the TV set, and they certainly thought it was an artifact!
Collecting Mithril Associated Mine during this time has restored his strength a lot, and has now reached the level of 7th-level alchemist. However, rare minerals are still a few, after all, it is estimated that this Mithril Associated Mine has been fully mined enough to raise him to about 10, and it still takes a lot of time to restore to the legendary level. For Stephen, the process of mining and working is similar to meditation, because meditation itself is a matter that requires extreme concentration, and this is the same in his work. According to his own calculations, when he finishes a wizard tower, he can slowly recover to the strength of about 15 with the help of ground energy and elemental channels.
This is roughly equivalent to the high-level wizard of the Arcane Council, and belongs to the third-level wizard in this aboriginal world.
“Your Excellency Stephen!”
Just when Stephen was about to go back to work in the mine, a knight Zema came to the mine, hurriedly asked the guard, and then came quickly, anxiously said: “Ms. Ilya asked me to give you these two letters. .”
Could something happen?
Stephen frowned and reached out to take over the letter. When he opened it, he suddenly realized, “It turned out to be this matter.”
Jinxi Manor finally had an accident.
Although Steven didn’t know what the Bernard housekeeper did in secret, it must be related to the experiment of the aboriginal wizard. Miss Tinax’s sudden death reminded him that there was a relationship with evil spirits behind the sudden death, so he immediately took the Countess Eliya away. But after Steven took the people away, the Bernard housekeeper apparently did not stop his experiments. He even temporarily blocked the news of Miss Tinax’s death through his influence on the manor. He is the uncle of the old Earl of Sutton. Although he looks younger, it is just the appearance of a wizard. The wizard has many ways to delay his aging. It was precisely because of this identity that he suppressed other people from letting the news spread, and because Earl Sutton had just captured the Howling City, there were too many things to deal with and he did not notice the manor.
Until now, the old Earl of Sutton has been busy attracting real power aristocrats and military officials.
However, this situation can’t be concealed until after Berner Butler himself has an accident!
From the accidental death of Miss Tinax, people in Jinxi Manor kept dying or disappearing, and the mood of Bernard’s housekeeper became more and more paranoid and crazy. He relied on the power of the wizard to restrict the freedom of others, even He also seriously wounded a knight. The atmosphere of terror and depression made many people in the manor feel frightened, and finally even led some servants to sneak away. The day before the letter was delivered to Stephen, a strange event happened in the Jinxi Manor. Miss Tinax, who was the first to die unexpectedly, disappeared.
Her body is gone!
This incident ignited a repressed fear and made everyone’s emotions burst out.
But before waiting for others to reflect, the Bernard Butler was found dead in the back garden of Jinxi Manor the next day.
The scene of Bernard’s housekeeper’s death was very weird. He was hanged on a laurel tree, his face was blue, his lips were black and purple, and his eyes were prominent. He didn’t hang himself with a rope, but was strangled by a strange vine Neck wrapped up and hanged on the tree. When the guards found him the next day, the body of Bernard’s housekeeper was already cold.
At this time, everything that happened in Jinxi Manor during this time was rushed to the old Earl of Sutton in Howling City.
The old Earl of Sutton looked awful at first sight!
Everything in Howling City needs him to take over after Earl Keaton’s death. Those cunning real power nobles need him to deal with them one by one, so he hasn’t been back since he entered into Howling City~www.mtlnovel.com ~But what he did not expect was that it was only within a few days that such a big thing happened in his manor. Not only was his daughter, Miss Tinax, accidentally killed, but even Bernard’s butler, whom his uncle had always trusted, died strangely. In addition, in this short period of time, Jinxi Manor has disappeared and killed seven or eight people, and now many servants and attendants have fled there.
But this is not the scariest!
The more terrible thing was that a servant yesterday died in the back garden of the Mansion of the Windwind City after he sent a letter to the Earl of Sutton in the Windwind City.
This time the old Earl of Sutton was completely panicked.
Now as long as he is not an idiot, he can realize that things are very serious, so after the initial panic, Earl Sutton thought of the mysterious Lord Stephen the first. He personally went to the Countess Eliya to ask for help, but Stephen had been in the mining house for a long time, and Madam Eliya could only send someone to deliver the letter quickly, and also wrote the details of the matter in the letter.
“Miss Tinax’s body was missing?”
“Is it alive?”
Living in Stephen’s mouth naturally does not refer to the real resurrection, but refers to the resurrected dead people. Eighty percent of Jinxi Manor may have a parasitic evil spirit, and Miss Tinax’s body seems to have become a place for evil spirits. body. All the people in the manor were surrounded by evil thoughts, and it was precisely because of this that Stephen did a little aftercare for Mrs. Eliya’s mother and daughter immediately after leaving. The mark of evil thoughts left by the evil spirits will lock these people, so only someone will be killed after leaving Jinxi Manor. Earl Sutton was terrified now, and the letter anxiously asked him to go back and help deal with the matter.
