Chapter 191: Secrets of the Residence


    Although this was Han Dong''s first time participating in a training session, he might not know much about many of the ''hidden rules''.


    However, judging from Deputy Head''s introduction of the rules.


    The Knight Order NPCs scattered in the manor would only provide some of the most basic quests, and the amount of points that could be obtained was rtively small.


    Of course.


    The team must also rely on this series of basic quests to slowly touch the ''manor''s surface secrets'' and gradually go deeper.


    To reach the medium, high, hidden series of quests, or the most crucial [Core Quests], it would require apletely massive amount of pre-quests, or finding some sort of item or clue on your own.


    Variability and randomness in the form of a shallow to deep, cascading exploration pattern.


    Han Dong could simply deduce that the Knights had alreadye to the [Stuart Grand Manor].


    A great deal of effort had been spent to transform the ce into such a systematic camp, to some extent reducing the difficulty of trainee knights living outside the city and aiding the yer in fully exploring the manor.


    For the sake of the cultivation of the next generation, Holy City had also put in a lot of effort.


    ----------------------


    Inside the residence.


    The task of the nodeyout was all left to Mia to do.


    So much so that the outside of the building is covered with spider silk, adding a strange and eerie addition to the original dpidated foundation, and there are even small spiders crawling on the surface of the outer walls.


    Once an outsider approaches, these spiders will take the initiative to attack.


    In conjunction with the candles and sorcery formations set up on the inneryer, a moreplete boundary was set up.


    Han Dong, who had freed up his free time, conducted a thorough inspection of the building.


    The small town was contained within the manor area after all.


    In the Knight Order''s introduction, it was not mentioned that this one miniature town was a safe zone, it could also contain dangers, and all risks must be eliminated before residing there.


    Of course, there might also be clues that would help investigate the truth about the manor.


    Han Dong had the Little Devil''s Eye in a state of covert operation.


    While searching the basement attached to this room, he gained insight into the anomaly.


    With Han Dong''s shout, everyone assembled.


    Knock, knock, knock!


    Han Dong reached out and knocked on the east wall, this hollow sound meant it was a hollow wall.


    There was no need for cksmith Wendy to do it.


    Han Dong activated some special line of his right arm and used his ws and strength to easily destroy this hollow wall.


    The inside of the wall caused the people present to freeze violently.


    "This is!!!"


    Arge amount of corpse remains were embedded within the wall.


    And the remains weren''t just embedded in this wall that Han Dong had chiseled, the walls around the basement were also sealed with simrly bizarre corpses.


    It felt like the walls of the basement were built with the remains of a corpse as their foundation.


    However, it wasn''t these corpses that Han Dong was looking for, there were other secrets hidden in the walls that Han Dong had knocked open.


    "You guys back off a bit, there''s a possibility of a contamination leak."


    As everyone retreated one by one.


    Han Dong forcefully pulled out several corpses embedded inside the wall.


    A small passageway covered with vines that was only 1.2 meters high and wide enough for one person at most to pass through appeared in front of everyone.


    Han Dong tried to peek into the depths of the small hole.


    Hissing~~.


    There was a faint feeling that something was watching him from the depths.


    Danger!!!


    " Wendy, Miae help! Fill the bodies back up.


    Han Dong immediately ced the corpse that he had just dragged out back in its original position, with Mia''s spider silk for foundation fixing, and finally Wendy using the iron sheet to reseal the wall


    "Do you sense danger, Nichs?"


    "Hmm, there''s something in the depths of the cave.


    Also, the cave extends in a direction that just happens to point to the Hill Castle, maybe there''s some connection between the two. Maybe it touches on the intermediate, or even advanced secrets of the great manor.


    We''re currently untouched by even the most basic quests, and I think it''s better to seal the ce off for now.


    I suspect that these bodies sealed within the walls are a kind of natural seal, the family that used to live here might have broken some kind of special connection with the ''Great Lord of Stuart'' through this method.


    Until you have basic information about the manor, or until you have received a mission about this lower level, it''s best to avoid contact."


    "Hmm! Let''s go to the ground."


    Captain Abel, who was standing farther away, had simrly felt a certain amount of danger through his unique beast sensing while trying to peer into this one cave just now.


    "It''s a bit scary, we actually live in a ce like this."


    At the thought of the piles of corpses between the basement walls, cksmith Wendy got goosebumps.


    After all, she would be living in this house for the next week.


    Yet.


    Wendy nced at the captain and lieutenant, both of whom seemed very reliable, and as long as everyone could sleep together, they could still be at ease.


    Once the dwelling was upied and a boundary was put up, ording to the rules of the Order, no other squad would be allowed to take it.


    Basically, all the squads had already decided on their dwellings.


    The streets were not only filled with squads of knights running back and forth, trying to take on various tasks.


    There were also some [Night Watchmen] who were wearing ck cloaks and carrying kerosenemps patrolling the streets and alleys.


    "Abel, what kind of position are these [Night Watchmen] that wander around the manor."


    "Security patrols, as well as providing special missions.


    When we trigger an important node, the [Night watchers] wille to us.


    Of course, their main duty is still to protect us from something ''big'' sneaking into the town at night and causing harm to us."


    "Hmm."


    "Come with me, although we are all treated the same. But I know all the knights who act as NPCs here, and won''t make it difficult for us on some benchmark quests to take over.


    In the early stages, we can properly ''speed up the process''."


    Using his unique sense of smell, Abel sought out a fixed target to find.


    Unlike all the other squads who were picking up their missions in the town, Abel didn''t stop along the way to the wheat fields on the town''s border.


    During this time, Han Dong, wearing a beak mask, was secretly observing everything around him, the conversations between students and knights, the structure of each building, theposition of the streets, all the details he could gather were stored in his brain.


    Between the wind-dried and ruined straw fields, there was a small, dpidated wooden house standing in addition to the scarecrow.


    A group of people were just approaching.


    All they heard was a creak!


    A woman with a giant eagle nose wrapped in rags and holding a ck candle suddenly poked her head out and stared at Captain Abel with a pair of eagle eyes.


    "Aunt Bardot, do you have any good tasks for us here?"


    "Abel, you boy! Your grandfather has instructed that you are not to be given a small kitchen, so hurry back to the city and find someone else. My task here is on the difficult side, so you''d better not touch it."


    "Then I won''t be asking Aunt Bardot to practice ''Eagle Language'' from now on."


    "How dare you kid threaten me, get in here! The mission can be given to you, but you will have to take the correspondingly great risk yourselves."
