Gu Fei led the five of them to the vicinity of Adrian's house. As they approached, they saw a familiar and busy figure in the backyard of the house.
"Little Rain!" Gu Fei yelled.
June Rain turned around and saw Gu Fei's group. She waved at them and said, "I'm here."
The few of them gathered around the girl and surrounded her. "What are you doing?" they asked.
Gu Fei saw the cellar lid by June Rain's feet and laughed, "You haven't given up yet?"
June Rain stepped on the lid and said, "That's weird. It's not locked. Why can't I open it?"
The group of five squatted down to study it. Gu Fei laughed and said, "It's a game. If the system says it can't be opened, then of course it can't be opened. Does it need a reason?" He wondered why their IQ had dropped to Little Rain's level.
Brother You turned around and looked at Gu Fei seriously, "No, the parallel world game is very detailed. If it's a door that can't be opened, there must be a reason."
The group of five continued to study it.
"Maybe it's because it's heavy?" Yutian Shenming said after pulling the lid.
"Let me try." Unscathed In Battle walked up. June Rain looked at him expectantly. Gu Fei was speechless. June Rain was an all-out Warrior. Unscathed In Battle was an experienced Warrior. Of course, he wouldn't use such an extreme method. Even though he was big and burly, he was no match for June Rain in arm wrestling. If June Rain couldn't open the door, what use was he?
As expected, Unscathed In Battle held his breath for a long time and concluded, "It's either too heavy or I can't open it."
"Pfft!" Gu Fei snorted.
Brother You carefully checked the gap between the cellar lid and the floor, but he did not find anything. In the end, he mumbled, "Is there some kind of magic that can't be opened with mortal power, so special spells or items are needed?"
"This Adrian is indeed not an ordinary person!" Everyone's body trembled as they looked at Adrian's mansion with bright eyes.
"Adrian isn't home right now," June Rain interrupted.
"Oh!" said Gu Fei. "No wonder you've come to the backyard to look through it."
"Hehe, long time no see," June Rain said with a smile.
"Chance!" Yutian Shenming slapped his leg and said, "Adrian isn't home. Let's go in and search. Maybe the item or scroll is at home."
"Yeah!" Unscathed In Battle was about to go.
"I say …" Gu Fei spoke up. "We're here to look for Adrian. We're not here to open this cellar, are we?"
"We're here to find Adrian. Don't tell me we're here to open the cellar lid?" Then, with a serious face, he asked June Rain, "Ahem, do you know where Adrian has gone?"
June Rain shook her head. But Yutian Shenming's words had enlightened her. She really wanted to open the cellar lid! Thinking of June Rain, she wanted to break in and search for something. At this time, Han Family Young Master finally said, "I know where Adrian is."
"How do you know?"
"Where is he?"
Everyone looked at him.
Han Family Young Master stepped on the cellar lid.
"What do you mean?"
Just as he finished speaking, the lid of the cellar suddenly opened with a squeak. The few of them quickly retreated in shock. Then, they saw a person holding a candle in one hand and supporting himself on the ground with the other, crawling out of the cellar.
Han Family Young Master looked at the experts in front of him. "The door can't be opened, and there's no lock. The biggest possibility is that he's been killed from the inside …"
All the experts lowered their heads in shame, especially Brother You. Just now, he was talking about magic locking the door. It seemed that sometimes, knowing too much wasn't a good thing.
"Ahem! Is that Adrian? "Brother You asked Gu Fei as he pointed at the person who had crawled out.
"Yeah, he looks the same."
When Adrian crawled out of the cellar to find himself surrounded by a group of people, he reacted as an NPC would, yelling at them with a sharp voice, "Who are you people? What are you doing in my house?"
No one paid attention to him. He was just a broken robot. Who would care about his attitude? Only a fantasy quest maniac like June Rain would care. Unfortunately, June Rain wasn't here. She had just smashed Adrian's door and rushed in to rummage through the chests and cabinets. To be honest, this was the standard gameplay of RPG games.
"What do we do? Do we take him down now? "Brother You said.
"No way? Just take him down and tell the werewolves that he's been taken care of? Is that okay? "Gu Fei said.
"I don't think so. We should at least show some evidence right?" Sword Demon said.
"How do we prove that this person is the mastermind behind the werewolves?" Everyone looked up and down at Adrian.
Adrian was still shouting. "Who are you people? Why did you come here?" He was ignored by the six.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If we can't find a way to expose this person's identity, can we do anything to him? "Han Family Young Master said.
"Yeah. Normal NPCs are protected by PK. Only when the conditions of the quest are met will the PK protection be removed." Brother You said.
The six surrounded Adrian and looked like they were thinking. At this moment, June Rain crawled out of the house. She was crestfallen. "I didn't find anything that looked like a cellar."
The few of them looked at each other for a moment, then suddenly rushed towards Adrian's mansion. Adrian yelled from behind, "What are you doing? You bunch of bandits!!!"
The bandits searched Adrian's house again in front of the person in question. Unfortunately, they didn't find anything that could reveal Adrian's identity. The people who came out of the house were all crestfallen like June Rain.
"You bunch of bandits!!" Adrian pointed at them angrily. "I'm going to sue you. I'm going to sue you." Adrian stumbled as he ran away.
"This, won't it be a little troublesome?" Brother You was the first to get nervous.
"Will they call the NPC guards?" Yutian Shenming was the second.
"Who fought with the NPC guards before?" Unscathed In Battle asked. Everyone's eyes turned to Gu Fei. He was a PK maniac. If his PK value went over 20, he would be chased by the guards.
Gu Fei shook his head. "I was chased, but I didn't dare fight."
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. If even Gu Fei didn't dare fight, then he must be very strong.
"Is he strong?" Yutian Shenming asked with a trembling voice.
"I don't know, but there will be a lot of people." Gu Fei said.
They looked at each other. It was quiet. Suddenly, there was the sound of books being flipped. The few of them turned around and saw that Young Master Han had just come out of the mansion. He was holding a tattered book in his hands and flipping through it non-stop.
"What is it?" They surrounded him.
"Account book." Han Family Young Master said.
"What did you find?" They asked.
"Nothing, but there's Adrian's handwriting here." Han Family Young Master said to them.
They quickly reacted and looked at Gu Fei. "What about the note?"
"It was given to Sword of No Oath …" Gu Fei was troubled. He really was a qualified mercenary.
"But do you guys know how to identify handwriting?" Gu Fei asked.
"It's useless. The player's own talent shouldn't be enough to affect the game's plot. If this is a clue, then it must be handled by a skill in the game. For example, appraisal?" Brother You said.
"Appraisal? Does appraisal have the ability to identify handwriting? "They were confused.
"I'm just giving an example." Brother You said.
"Players might not be able to appraise it, but NPC appraisers might not be able to do so," Young Master Han said.
"That makes sense. But the problem is that the note isn't in our hands right now …"
"Ask Sword of No Oath. If we help him complete the quest, would he not give it to us?" Unscathed In Battle said.
"Hehe …" The Han Clan's young master suddenly laughed.
Everyone felt their scalps go numb. They avoided his smile. "What did you think of?"
"I thought of a way to get Sword of No Oath to give us the note." Han Family Young Master said.
"Needless to say, it must be very cruel." The five shook their heads.
Han Family Young Master didn't say anything else. He just sent a message to Reflection of Years. "We found a big clue."
"Damn!!!" Reflection of Years treated this news as bad news. He said to Sword of No Oath with a sad face, "Childe Elite Group really got it first."
"Don't worry." Sword of No Oath was quite calm. "This is our quest. We have the initiative. Even if he found a clue, I might not accept it. The quest has only just begun. Keep calm and negotiate with him. "
Thus, Reflected Years waited for a moment before calmly replying, "Oh? What clue? "
"We need that piece of paper." The Han Family young master said.
"What do you want me to do?" Time's Reflection replied slowly.
In fact, as an honest mercenary, he should be honest with his employer about his findings. Unfortunately, morals were deteriorating day by day. Not only did mercenaries not do this, even the employers did not ask the mercenaries to do so. What should have been a pure transaction was full of deception and deception.
Han Family Young Master, who often took the opportunity to extort money, now showed the qualities of an honest mercenary. He told Reflection of Years that Adrian was a major suspect and that he might be able to expose his despicable plot by bringing the note over.
Reflection of Years and the others were skeptical, but it didn't cost anything to try. So they quickly took the note and rushed to Adrian's mansion in Luminous Village.
"But Adrian isn't here right now!" Hearing Han Family Young Master's plan, the others were confused.
"That's exactly what we want!" Han Family Young Master laughed.
