The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 85 Manor
"Not interested in."

Sauron was expressionless, waving the cross sword in his hand.

A flash of astonishment flashed in Karina's eyes, and with a tearing pain in her throat, she gradually lost her vitality.

After finishing Karina, Sauron began to clean up the battlefield.

After some searching, Sauron found all the valuable things on Karina and the others, but he was greatly disappointed in the result.

"only these?"

A hint of disappointment flashed in Sauron's eyes. Karina and Jim were second-level apprentices after all, but the total number of magic stones on their bodies was no more than thirty or so.

As for Able and Bert, let alone.

As Boka's followers, they don't have a single magic stone on them, only some gold coins, and a piece of broken parchment.

"Black fire breathing method..."

Sauron looked at the parchment, which was found from Bert, and it seemed to be the meditative method of the other party's cultivation.

It's just that the parchment has long been torn, and the information on it is also incomplete.

Sauron put away the parchment, and then came to Polka's side.

"Pity."

Looking at Polka's body, Sauron's eyes flashed with regret.

As a third-level apprentice, the gray robe on Boka's body and the black cane are good things, but due to the battle just now, these two things have been damaged.

The gray robe was tattered, and the black cane was broken.

Sauron shook his head and rummaged through Polka.

After some searching, he found several magic stones and a silver-white key.

After suffering Jim's suicide attack, almost everything on Polkadot was damaged in the explosion, except for this silver-white key that was intact.

A gleam of light flashed in Sauron's eyes.

Although it is not clear what the specific function of this silver key is, he still put it away, and then buried the bodies of Polka and others on the spot.

After doing all this, Sauron left the dark sea of ​​trees.

The sun is setting, and the setting sun is like blood.

When Sauron returned to Old Lington, it was already dusk. He returned to his residence, took a rest and waited for the night to fall.

Soon, the meniscus lifted off.

It was night in Old Warrington, and the whole city fell into silence.

Sauron quietly walked out of the hotel and came to Polka's manor in the dark.

Under the night, the manor was very quiet.

Since Polka went to the dark sea of ​​trees, the housekeeper was in charge of all matters in the manor. Under his arrangement, the guards were divided into three groups to take turns patrolling.

In the corner, Sauron's eyes flickered.

Polka had already died in the dark sea of ​​trees, so this manor has now become an ownerless property, and Sauron will naturally not let go of the large amount of wealth left by the other party.

On the spot, Sauron thought about it.

Crow Lal flew over the manor, and through the ability to share vision, Sauron easily understood the situation inside the manor.

croak!croak! !

In mid-air, Lal uttered a few strange screams, which attracted the attention of the guards. Sauron saw the timing and sneaked into the manor quietly.

Later, he came to the place where Polka lived.

In the luxurious dim room, Sauron looked around, without wasting any time, and immediately started searching.

However, after some searching, Sauron found nothing.

In the room where Polka lived, Sauron didn't find anything related to the extraordinary, not even half a magic stone.

Sauron frowned slightly, and went to another room to search.

As a result, nothing of value was found.

"how could be?"

Sauron frowned slightly, a moment of thought flashed in his eyes, and then walked into another room.

"Who?"

In the room, on a huge bed, a middle-aged man with bare buttocks was playing with two women. He was shocked when he saw Sauron.

The two women were also taken aback.

However, before they could shout, Sauron had already stepped forward to knock them unconscious, and at the same time drew out his cross sword and pressed it against the middle-aged man's neck.

"If you don't want to die, don't shout."

Sauron's face was expressionless, and a cold luster flashed in his eyes.

The heart of the middle-aged man trembled.

"My friend, you have come to the wrong place."

The middle-aged man suppressed the fear in his heart, pretending to be calm and said: "This manor is Lord Boka's territory. No matter what you want to do, I advise you to give it up."

"Otherwise, when Lord Polkadot returns, you will definitely regret your actions."

Bang!
Hearing the man's words, Sauron didn't say a word, and punched the man in the abdomen.

The middle-aged man snorted, his face suddenly pale as paper.

"I ask, you answer, don't talk nonsense."

Sauron stared at the man, and said coldly: "I know that Polka is not in the manor now, who is in charge here now."

"……I."

The middle-aged man endured the pain and said in a low voice: "I am Lord Boka's steward. After he left, he asked me to take charge of the affairs of the manor."

"What's your name?" Sauron's heart moved.

"Orion."

"Very good, Orion, let me ask you, where is Polkadot's wealth hidden?"

Orion's face changed, but he didn't speak.

Sauron's eyes turned cold, and the cross sword pressed against the opponent's neck slightly exerted force.

"I can't tell."

Orion gritted his teeth, and said, "If Mr. Boka knows that I betrayed him, then the end will be death!"

"Even, the consequences are more terrible than death!"

While speaking, Orion trembled slightly, appearing terrified of Polkadot.

"If you're worried about Polkadot's revenge, then you don't have to."

Sauron's heart moved, he shook his head and said, "Because, he is already dead!"

Saying that, Sauron took out the silver-white key.

"You killed Master Boka?!"

Seeing the silver-white key, Orion's pupils shrank for a while, his body trembled slightly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"Now, I'm the one asking you."

Sauron put away the silver-white key and said coldly, "My patience is limited. If you don't want to die, I advise you not to waste any more time."

A trace of struggle flashed in Orion's eyes.

"...I'm just a housekeeper, and I don't know where Lord Boka's things are hidden."

After a while, Orion said in a low voice: "However, I often see Mr. Boka go to the basement and stay there for a long time without coming out."

"Perhaps, all his things should be hidden there."

"basement?"

Sauron's eyes flashed, and he ordered: "Take me there, don't play tricks, otherwise, I don't need to say more about the consequences, right?"

"I see."

Orion nodded, put on a coat, and honestly led Sauron to a room, and opened the floor partition to reveal a passage.

"It's here."

Looking at the dark passage, a trace of hesitation flashed in Orion's eyes, and he said, "Master Boka never allows us to approach this place in normal times."

"Even as the housekeeper of the manor, I have never set foot in this basement."
