"I heard that there have been a few vicious murder cases in Catuten City recently."
Within the spacious carriage, an ordinary-looking man with a rough body and wearing a leather hunting suit spoke. His voice echoed in the carriage for a long time.
"I've heard of it too." On the side, Alice, who had a head of red hair, sat quietly beside Tamar. She nodded and said, "I have a distant relative who is one of the sheriffs of Katuten City. He once told me about the situation there."
"The people who were assassinated were all nobles, and they looked very miserable before they died. They were cruelly dismembered and their bodies were cooked and thrown to the beasts. Only their heads were left."
She slowly recalled and explained to the people present, "According to my distant relative's description, the attackers seemed to be holding some sort of ritual, similar to the practices of those famous cults."
"How terrifying." On the side, Andak sighed and asked, "What happened in the end? Were the murderers caught? "
"I'm not sure." Glancing at him, Alice shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
In the carriage, the others also expressed their views on this matter before slowly moving on to other topics.
Unknowingly, the carriage had left the city and was on a small path outside the city.
After more than an hour, the carriage gradually stopped and arrived at a remote location.
The fragrance of flowers wafted from afar, accompanied by a gust of wind.
Under Andak's lead, the few of them alighted from the carriage and looked forward.
In front of them was a very large manor. Within the manor were patches of red roses and large patches of silver grass. They grew neatly and looked very beautiful.
The fragrance of flowers wafted through the air, causing the few of them to feel refreshed.
"So many roses."
Looking at the large manor that was paved with countless roses, Tamar was slightly surprised.
"This is where the name Rose Manor came from." At the side, Andak explained with a smile, "This manor was originally called Klunder Manor. It was started by the Klunder family more than 30 years ago. Because there are many different colored roses planted here, it's called Rose Manor."
"Every once in a while, the Crand family would hold a ball in the manor and invite the surrounding nobles to have fun. It's a pretty good activity around here."
He looked at the crowd and explained as he walked forward.
Hearing his words, the others around him nodded in agreement. They could not help but marvel at the beauty of the manor.
"What a beautiful manor. There are so many roses. Just maintaining and taking care of it would cost a lot of gold coins every year." Beside Tamar, a girl in gray clothes sighed.
"Of course." Andak smiled, then looked at the crowd in front. "Alright, it's almost time. Let's go in."
After saying that, he led the few people beside him and walked forward.
Beside them, a young man in a black robe stood there, looking up at the huge manor in front of him.
"A faint smell of blood."
Adil mumbled to himself as he sensed the aura coming from the manor through his Nature Sense.
Following his senses, he looked at the bright red roses in front of the manor.
In his senses, that place was filled with a gloomy and cold aura of negative energy, with a faint smell of blood.
"Rose Manor? I think it should be called Chaotic Phoenix Mound. "Sensing the various auras around him, Adil laughed coldly in his heart.
Through the powerful senses of his Nature Sense and the powerful analysis of the A.I. Chip, he could clearly sense the faint stench of corpses and blood from the troops in this area.
Beneath the roses were piles of corpses, all buried in the ground. It was only because they were covered by the layer of roses that they were not discovered.
The entire manor was filled with the fragrance of flowers. As for the extremely faint stench of corpses and blood, it was naturally covered and not discovered.
"Clender Manor, Clender Family …"
Lightly shaking his head, he followed the crowd and walked forward.
The ball in the Rose Manor was very famous in this area. Every time it was held, many nobles and celebrities would come to participate.
With Adil's status, it was naturally not difficult for him to get an invitation to the Rose Manor. He directly obtained an admission ticket from a patient for free, and did not even have to pay a single cent.
Of course, in order to avoid being discovered by Tamar and the others, he purposely concealed his aura through the jade imprint and avoided Tamar and the others, only following the crowd as he walked forward.
Walking into the manor, the smell of blood in the surroundings became even stronger.
Smelling this smell, Adil could not help but frown. Looking at the surrounding tourists who were admiring the flowers, he turned around and walked into the distance.
The ball usually started at night, and during the day, the tourists could wander around the manor and admire the scenery.
Walking along a small path, Adil arrived at an open hall.
The hall was very spacious, and there were many sculptures and murals inside.
In the center of the hall, there was a statue of a valiant man. He looked very tall and held a black longsword in his hand, on which there was a complicated triangular imprint.
"The Turin Emperor."
Looking at the murals in front of him and the huge statue in the center, Adil spoke softly.
"Yes," a voice sounded from the side.
At the side of the hall, there was an old man in a black robe who was cleaning. He seemed to be the guardian of this place.
Hearing Adil's voice, he could not help but raise his head, then smiled and said, "This is the statue of the emperor of the Turin Empire, Turin the First. It is said that it was made by a sculptor more than three thousand years ago."
"Turin the First." Hearing this name, Adil nodded.
After such a long time of understanding the history of this world, he was no longer as ignorant as he was when he first came to this world.
Turin the First was a legend in this world, the first king to unify the whole world.
He established the first unified empire, the first to change the situation of dozens of independent countries, and single-handedly defeated all the countries at that time. He could be called a legend.
In a world where knights ruled everything, to be able to establish such a great cause, he must have been very powerful.
According to some scattered records in Malan Academy, this Turin the First was very likely to be an Ancestor Knight.
Observing the surrounding hall in Silence, Adil found that there were many things about the Turin Empire in the hall in front of him.
There were statues of Turin the First and other emperors of the Turin Empire, various ancient books that recorded the history of the Turin Empire, and a large number of murals that recorded the history of the Turin Empire.
A strong sense of history shrouded the hall, and Adil could not help but look sideways.
"It seems that the owner of this manor likes the history of the Turin Empire very much."
Looking at the things displayed in the hall, Adil thought in Silence.
After a while, he turned around and left, leaving only the old man in the black robe in the same place.
Soon, time passed, and night came.
