A Will Eternal Chapter 175
The Carret family has its own dark secrets.
Well, let's just pretend it's true.
so what? They were all going to die anyway.
Thinking of this, the curiosity aroused in Kane's heart faded again.
The will document has been obtained, and the succession of power and position has been completed 60.
There are also 30 seals of marquis lords, crowns, scepters, seals, secret codes, land certificates and other inheritance.
The last 10 are the specific control rights of Scarlet Villa, as well as official records.
At present, the specific control of the villa is in the hands of Pamela, which is an important basis for her to control the crowd.
If the authority of the Marquis is equivalent to the administrator authority of the computer system, what Pamela now has is the top level authority of the sers group.
If she also participated in Ryan's secret research, then it might be considered as an additional authority of the secret place. This means that once Ryan dies, she will be the top manager until the new Marquis succeeds.
Kane naturally prefers to see the highest authority in the hands of Fran, and he has long nights and dreams, and he doesn't want to delay for a moment.
Coming out of Pamela's room, he said to Maria, "Tell someone to go to another room."
Maria led people to carry out the order, while Kane explained to Fran: "We have made a lot of noise, and no one pays attention or asks questions. It's a bit strange."
Hearing what Kane said, Fran also realized that the situation was a little weird.
At this time, Maria called: "Aron, Marquis, please come and see."
Kane and Fran entered the room where Maria was. The internal structure was very simple, with the effect of a standard room in a modern guest room, with a bedside table and two single beds.
The maid lying on the bed didn't react at all as if she was dead.
Kane walked over and slid his hand along the wide collar of a maid, and his hands were warm and greasy.
"Heart is there, beating normally."
"..." Franxin said, "Your inspection method is really different."
At this time, I saw Kane roll up the maid's eyelids,
And shook it with a light.
"The pupils are not dilated, but they have been put to the maximum, and they don't respond to light, and the soul is gone."
As he spoke, he checked another person in the same way, and the result was the same.
Kane straightened up and said to Maria: "Check the other rooms to confirm the situation."
Kane and Fran left the room and re-entered the hallway.
"Shouldn't this be a group sleep aid specially set up for the servants to have a better rest?"
Fran couldn't laugh or cry: "How can there be such a setting? It's unheard of."
The weird atmosphere was also diluted a lot by Kane's words.
After a while, Maria came to report, and so did the servants in other rooms on the fourth floor.
"It seems that some things did not end because of Ryan's death."
Fran looked a little terrified and distorted, and said sternly, "It must be that bitch Pamela..."
Kane repeatedly called Fran's name and interrupted him, "Don't be blinded by hatred, if there is something mysterious here, it will easily put you in danger. No matter how twists and turns and weird things happened in the villa, it has already happened. It is the past tense, and the mystery will be solved little by little after all. Get the authority first, Fran. Stabilize the overall situation inside and outside, and then solve the matter by stripping away the cocoons. Ryan will not die in vain. Those who should be responsible for the incident will all run away No. The premise is that you have enough strength."
Fran took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
"Where are we going now?"
Just then, the clock struck midnight.
Although the main building has a huge timing tower, it does not actually make a sound. It is luminous, and the hands and scales can be seen even at night.
When the clock strikes midnight, it is in people's hearts. It was an indescribable touch that made every sober person here aware of the arrival of this moment.
Fran couldn't help but said: "The Scarlet Heights is so strange now, let alone when I lived here when I was a teenager, it is very different from when Ryan inherited the title a few years ago. This midnight What kind of strange thing is it that the bell is ringing in your heart!?"
"Don't pay attention to these external disturbances, we will do our business, go to Ryan's study to get the seal of the Marquis, and then go to the control center to get the management rights of the entire mansion."
"Okay." Fran looked at the puppets who had gathered again, and his courage grew again.
Maria winked at Kane.
Kane understood that the job had been done. Dynamite was planted, and the West Wing would be blown to pieces when needed.
Not only here, Lincoln and Kennedy should have completed their tasks by this time, and most of the facilities in the East District have been properly arranged with explosives.
This involves the results of his spell deconstruction of Scarlet Villa in the afternoon. These secondary magic facilities, key positions such as supporting points have been mastered by him, and the main building is much more troublesome in comparison.
This is also the main reason why he is enthusiastic about helping Fran get power.
Going back the same way and walking to the bridge corridor, I heard a rustling sound in my ears.
When I saw the water marks on the window glass, I realized that it was raining outside. It was not small, but because of the sound-absorbing characteristics of the villa, it failed to attract people's attention in time.
A flash of lightning suddenly lit up, brightly reflecting the inside of the bridge corridor through the window. On the side close to the guard building, a human figure dressed in women's clothing appeared in the light, and disappeared with the end of the lightning.
Ga la la! The sound of thunder arrived, as if listening to it under a thick quilt, it seemed a little far away.
"Ted, did you see it just now?" Fran asked with an ugly face.
Kane answered irrelevantly: "I heard that there are a group of ghosts living freely in Hogwarts?"
"Uh...it's true."
"The Marquess of Scarborough's Mansion is not suitable to become another Hogwarts. If there is time, we have to write a special constitution to prohibit this kind of ghosts from wandering around at will."
"..." Fran felt embarrassed and scared.
If you think about it rationally, it is nothing more than the evil advancement of ghosts, evil spirits, which are very dangerous, but if you say it is scary, it is actually not that scary. I have learned relevant knowledge in school, and there are many ways to deal with them.
"Now, I can't even sleep peacefully at night."
Kane sighed and said: "Maybe we should also think about that ghost. The Marquis Mansion is also very dangerous for it."
"Heh..." Fran was amused, and after thinking about it, it really was.
As an energy body, ghosts are easily blocked by force fields and energy curtains, which is the so-called penetrating matter, depending on the specific material. High density will consume more energy, and if the energy absorption effect is good, it will be even worse.
In short, if ghosts want to do something, they have to pay a price. In terms of universality, they are far inferior to humans.
This ghost is probably trapped here, after all, the particularity of Scarlet Mountain Villa makes the outside environment more dangerous for it.
After figuring it out, Fran felt a lot more relaxed.
However, what he didn't see was that Kane was already signaling Maria to step up her guard.
Those who only appeared in the light of lightning were not ordinary ghosts. In the east, this is called a demon soul, and only the thunder of the sky can kill it, even the thunder of the five elements is not very afraid.
The demon soul is scary, but it's also the reason why this thing was born. In the same way as in the East, it is not a place of absolute yin, a pit of burial of resentment, and this evil will not be born.
In human terms, this place is very filthy and evil. Many people died tragically here. Negative spiritual energy and all kinds of evil and twisted forces were pressed on a dark hotbed to ferment, forming an environment for the birth of demon souls. It is more evil than mass graves and mass graves.
Maybe this ghost is from outside?
Well, Kane would also like the truth to be the case. But when he thought of Charlotte's accomplices who were extremely happy after entering the Scarlet Villa during the day, and then thought about the pattern of the precious gate at the entrance, he felt that the possibility of ghost spirits coming from outside was very low.
"I didn't expect it to be such a place. It's very nonsensical. Needless to say, if we push forward hundreds of thousands of years, even now, there is not enough material for mass graves! If I knew it was like this, I should have put The treasure curtain of the Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries has been brought in, and that door is perfect for sealing off an area like this."
Kane thought gloomily, and had to say, he was slapped in the face by reality.
Those special yellow explosives were buried in vain, and ordinary brute force blasting could not be used in this environment, otherwise it would cause a different kind of volcanic eruption, and then it would be recorded in the memorabilia of the Holy See: In the early morning of November 30, 1853, A certain idiot opened the gates of hell with explosives...
Kane made a counterclockwise circle gesture, Maria understood, shook her sleeves, and a little dirt dog appeared, quietly turned away from the crowd, and went to carry out the new order.
Ryan's study is on the fifth floor.
Above the fifth floor is an important area where ordinary visitors are not allowed. There is no elevator to pass through directly, and you need to take the stairs.
The security checks in important places are naturally strict, but as long as there is no tower spirit, it is true that the fortress is always captured from the inside.
Now, it is Fran who is leading the way.
Through blood identification, the road is basically unimpeded.
This involves a concept of recognition rate, not because of the low recognition rate of magic, nor is it because this world does not have high-end technology in this area. Rather, there is no intelligent housekeeping system. If it is too delicate, it will easily lead to situations. If you are trapped, other family members cannot rescue you because of the prohibition and are close at hand. That is the pitfall.
When Kane and Fran broke into the study, the living armor guards there activated by themselves, as if they were going to fight without retreating.
Fran took out his will, showed it, and read out his powers.
Kane, who was on the sidelines, said in his heart: "It's time to test the integrity of the previous Marquis' basic lord."
The so-called basic conduct of a lord is the setting of the succession order of power and position. For the ancient family, this matter is more than family affection.
Taking the present as an example, if Ryan is not qualified, then Pamela may know the secret and crack it, and the result is that the sovereignty falls into the hands of the servant.
For a family of pure-blood wizards with a long history, this is one of the most shameful things.
The eye part of the helmet of the activated armor, the red light flickered in the narrow and long gaps, giving people the feeling that they were thinking. After a while, it knelt down to Fran and bowed its head.
This is pre-set, so that it has the ability to discern, and not everyone who has a will can come to cover things.
After completing the activated armor, there are more complex inspection procedures for opening the secret vault, including blood, questioning, and voice recognition. Fran, who has passed many verifications, finally opened the secret vault, and the lord's seal appeared in front of him.
Kane stroked the beard on his chin, looked at the excited Fran, and said in his heart: "It's simpler than I imagined, and the related responsibilities of family guardians have not been reflected."
He thought again: "Maybe it's not easy for the guardians of the Carret family to just guard taboo things, and they have no time to worry about other things."
Fran, facing the lord's seal, began to follow the relevant instructions in the will.
The family seal letter of the pure-blood wizard is not the kind of jade seal in the secular world, but an ancient magic device, or utensil.
Bloodline entry, inherited power, and information that only the Marquis would know. For example, the storage place of the secret code, the secret of the family, and so on.
And crowns, scepters, seals and the like are just ritual or office supplies, not that particularly important.
With the end of the certification, Fran put his right hand on the crystal-clear magic device, and a magic ring condensed on his right index finger.
This is the symbol of the power of the Marquis, the real seal of the Marquis, and the qualification certification for controlling various magical devices in Scarlet Heights.
Standing firmly in front of the secret vault and digesting the knowledge for a while, Fran began to reset the secret vault and the activated armor as a trusting Marquis.
After finishing it, he blessed himself with the blessing spell of the ancestral house, and felt much more at ease.
Kane sent his blessing at the right time, and applauded: "Congratulations, Your Excellency the new Marquis of Scarborough, the glory belongs to you, and may Carret's blood last forever."
"Thank you, Wellingborough, you will always be Scarborough's close partner. Please accept the blessings from the Carret family."
Speaking, Fran stretched out his right hand, and Kane stepped forward to shake it. "It is a great honor and I, Ted Oston, will remain true to our friendship."
While speaking, on the middle finger of Kane's right hand, there was an extra magic ring. The floral pattern around the ring was from the Marquis's Mansion, but the background color of the ring was blue, and there was a ring on it, representing Auston's first letter.
This is the proof of the advanced authority of the SERS group. Kane wearing him can break into the private study on the fifth floor without anyone's permission. Apart from the most secret places in Scarlet Mountain Villa, there was no place he couldn't go directly to.
Kane said: "The next step is the central control room. Then we can rest. After dawn, we will go to see if the housekeeper who stays up in the middle of the night is not trapped in any secret room."
When Fran heard this, he sneered coldly with irresistible hatred: "This kind of punishment is considered light."...
