Chapter 112 No surprises!

The morning sun is bright.

As Clifford drove, Goethe didn’t choose the co-pilot, but habitually sat behind the rear driver.

This kind of habit makes Clifford, a professional liar, very unaccustomed.

He always felt guilty that Goethe would strangle his neck at the next moment.

Even if Goethe keeps a book in his hand.

Or rather, it made Criford feel that Goethe was even more dangerous — the kind of superficially sane, in the bones crazy guy he’d seen, before the explosion, just like Goethe is now.

“Boss, I’ve already contacted.”

“Besides us, there is a gentleman visiting Mr. Penglt’s collection.”

“Also, Mr. Penter welcomes us here.”

To make himself feel better, Clifford began to introduce.

“en. ”

Goethe nodded slightly, but did not look away from the book that recorded [Kyle blood sacrifice].

Although because there is no system learning, but relying on the basic [Graphical Language], Goethe is still barely able to read the books in his hand-Goethe has never given up the idea that everything depends on his own.

As for 【Bloody Honor】?

He found it himself.

How can you not count on yourself?

“Kyle’s special blood sacrifice technique is derived from the oak tree sect. He is very good at changes and plants, and some can use elements…but this notebook is not completely recorded.”

Goethe A trace of regret rose in my heart.

However, I immediately adjusted my mentality.

This is a gift from Joe Keir. It’s a free gift. What’s there to be dissatisfied with?

And, in such a short period of time, Joe Keir was able to get these things, which is already extremely impressive.

“Sure enough, it’s not a fluke to be successful in a field.”

Goethe sighed.

Joe Keir is quite successful in the eyes of the ordinary person. Not only does he own a valuable company, but he is also very young – about forty years old, compared to the other party’s achievements, Absolutely called young.

Such people, even if they enter the transcendent field, will do quite a bit.

It’s a pity that that happened.

After sighing silently for Joe Keir’s father and son again, Goethe looked at the book in his hand again.

As for Clifford, who watched Goethe through the rearview mirror while driving, he was a little flustered.

“Mr. Penter was very kind and prepared lunch for us.”

“If they want to stay, they will also provide dinner.”

“Of course it costs, everything is included in the visit fee.”

The professional liar couldn’t help saying.

“I hope it’s not too bad.”

Goethe said casually.

“How is that possible?”

“Mr. Pentel, a decent man, must not hire a bad cook.”

Criford meets Goethe When we finally spoke, he immediately started to talk incessantly.

Most of it is about the collector Pentel.

Positive, but not specific.

At least, according to Ann’s information to Goethe, the collector Pentel is not as decent as he seems.

The identity of the other party’s ‘collector’ is naturally no doubt and there is no problem.

The impossible behind-the-scenes planner fabricated it out of thin air, leaving such a large weak spot.

However, apart from the identity of the ‘collector’, the other party has some other identities.

The other party was a gang member when he was young, and was responsible for keeping accounts.

Taking advantage of the alcohol prohibition order that year, the other party’s gang smuggled alcohol and produced alcohol by itself, making a fortune.

It has also become the target of public criticism!

After a fight, the opponent’s gang’s territory was divided up.

But cash?

Not a cent.

This became an urban legend in those days – ‘the disappearing dark gold’.

About twenty years later, Pentel reappeared and became a businessman under his current name. As he got older, he gradually quit the business circle and became active as a collector. .

And about the other person’s past?

It was an ‘old man’ who discovered it by accident while watching TV.

The other party just thought Pentel was a little familiar.

Subsequent investigations revealed Pentel’s true identity.

But it doesn’t work at all.

Two days later, the other party was hit and killed on the road by a driver of a wine rack – after being repeatedly run over several times, the driver immediately got out of the car and called the police, saying that he had hit someone and In a panic, he rolled over several times.

How does Ann know?

Goethe didn’t ask.

The policewoman obviously has her own secrets just like him.

You are all good friends.

It’s okay to help each other and have a meal together.

There is no need to cause any contradictions because of such trivial matters.

The professional experience of ‘hometown’ has already made Goethe understand what proportion is.

As for whether Pentel will cooperate with the behind-the-scenes planner?

Probably not.

Even for the follow-up plan, the person behind the scenes also needs to ensure the smoothness of this ‘visit’, ignoring his own existence.

At least!

There are further temptations, and it is also necessary to make everything reasonable!

After driving for about half an hour, the manor where Pentel was located arrived.

That’s right!

It’s a manor!

A trail is opened from the side of the road, leading directly to the manor.

“This Mr. Pentel was a friend of the city councillor, the councillor who had a car accident before. The two collaborated on many projects in ‘Star City’. The congressman proposed that Mr. Pentel funded the construction of this road that leads directly to the manor.”

Criford drove on this path and couldn’t help but admire.

Goethe continued to read the book, but observed all around with the help of the [Raven Spirit] vision.

As soon as the car hit the road, he was acutely aware of being watched.

Although his eyes swept away.

But not friendly.

“This is?”

Goethe frowned as he looked at the group of fully armed people.

There are ten people in this team.

The number of people can’t be called.

But the weapons and equipment are too complete.

It’s not just a pistol, but a submachine gun. Everyone has grenades on their chests, as well as snipers, machine gunners, and a military jeep covered in camouflage not far away. .

It has a heavy machine gun and three bazookas.

Goethe is not surprised that Pentel has such an armed force.

With the other party’s past, the other party can’t be too careful.

What he is curious about is…

These people also seem to be heading towards Pentel Manor.

“Could it be the guy’s arrangement?”

Goethe texted Ann as he packed the book in his backpack.

And when the car pulled into the manor, Goethe immediately noticed something was wrong.

The land on the side of the road entering the manor seems to have been turned over not long ago.

According to the size of the flipping area, it seems that…

Just enough to bury a person?

“This is going back to the old business?”

Goethe thought, but was not meddling.

He is very clear about the purpose of his visit to Penert Manor today: 【Bloody Honor】.

Clifford parked the car and graciously opened the door for Goethe.

As Goethe got out of the car, an old man came down the steps.

The other party is hair grey-white, with undisguised wrinkles on his face, and his body has grown slightly, but he is quite agile when walking.

“Is that Mr. Goethe Winchester?”

“I’ve heard your name a lot lately.”

“Welcome to my estate .”

“Hope you have a great day here.”

The old man greeted Goethe with a smile.

“Of course.”

Goethe also smiled, shook hands with the other party, and walked into the main building of the manor side by side with the other party. Clifford went to the lounge – only one person could visit for the 10,000 yuan, and Clifford stayed outside, although Clifford had paid for the money.

From the outside, the manor as a whole presents an idyllic style.

Mainly white birch, it looks casual, simple and unassuming.

But after walking inside, the main body of the building is white marble, giving people a sense of heaviness.

The two are not contradictory, but rather harmonious.

Undoubtedly, the designer hired at the beginning paid a high price.

Of course, it could also be free.

Because, the designer has a high probability of getting out of here.

After all, the other party designed a fairly practical fortress.

From the moment he walked in, Goethe found more than one point of fire.

Hidden very well.

But heartbeat is still there.

So, Goethe wouldn’t be surprised if the designer’s skeleton was dug up from a wall.

Or in the forest by the road outside the manor.

It grows so densely, it must be that there is more than one corpse buried in it.

After passing through the long corridor with Pentel, Goethe saw a middle age person wearing glasses and looking extremely gentle in the hall at the end of the corridor.

The other party should be the one who visited together as Clifford said.

“This is Mr. Zachley.”

“This is Mr. Goethe Winchester.”

Pentel introduced the two parties on.

“Goethe Winchester?”

“That ‘folk scholar’?”

The other party was stunned, and then blurted out.

As Goethe continues to gain popularity, the approval rate at this moment has reached 60%. Anyone who has been paying attention to the news recently will undoubtedly have heard of this name.

“It’s such an honor to meet you!”

“If possible, I hope you can tell me more folklore stories, I am a free man Contributor, I’m so intrigued by your experience!”

Goethe shook hands excitedly.

However, the other party’s heartbeat was unusually calm.

Not as excited as it seems.

“Okay.”

“But I hope that’s after I see those weapons, armor—for lunch, how about that?”

Goethe said with a smile.

“No problem.”

The other party agreed.

Looking at the two who were talking happily, a smile appeared on Pentel’s face.

The thing he is most worried about is the discord between the guests who visit at the same time.

Because it’s not only a loss of money, but also his reputation.

Once his reputation suffers, he will lose more money.

Pentel didn’t want that to happen.

Fortunately, not today.

“His Excellency ‘George’ is a great being. Many people call this great lord ‘Saint George’, but as his descendants, he is not so lucky. “

“We know that Lord ‘George’ had six wives and at least twenty-two lovers–and it is recorded because each of them bore at least Lord ‘George’ Had a child.”

“But unfortunately, most of these children died.”

“Most of the remaining half also appeared in adulthood. All kinds of accidents.”

“As if some curse appeared in the bloodline of Lord ‘George’, as long as you have a reputation, you will definitely encounter misfortune!”

“I Among the weapons in the collection, at least three can be confirmed to be stained with the blood of Lord ‘George’ bloodline.”

“They are also called ‘blood antiques’ by collectors, and many people hate them to the extreme. , but many people like it very much.”

“Me?”

“It’s the latter!”

Pentel took Goethe and Zha Klee walked down, introducing his collection.

When he got to the ground, the collector pushed open the door at the end.

Suddenly, Goethe saw many weapons and armors.

From the earliest cold weapon swords.

It has everything from modern arquebuses.

Goethe even found a ton of old artillery in the corner.

It was as if a two-hundred-year-old arms display had appeared in front of Goethe.

However, what attracted Goethe most was the three weapons in the middle.

A dagger, a long sword, a flintlock.

The three items are covered with bulletproof glass, which is well protected.

“Gentlemen, if you want to touch, remember to wear gloves.”

Pentel smiled and handed over two pairs of gloves.

Why do you need a visit fee of 10,000 yuan?

The ability to touch is the biggest selling point.

After taking the gloves, Goethe put them on, and after confirming with Pentel, he couldn’t wait to walk to the three weapons.

The bulletproof glass fell slowly, and Goethe picked up the dagger first.

[Well-preserved dagger: It used to be a self-protection dagger for one of the descendants of ‘George’, but in the face of a sudden group of robbers, such a dagger did not play a role, but became a splinter The murder weapon in the master’s throat. ]

[Get Bloody Honor X1]

…

[Well-preserved long sword: As one of the duelist’s long swords, it used to be full of It’s glory, it won at least 6 victories for its owner, until it was exposed that it was covered with snake venom, its owner was spurned, it was abandoned in the corner, but it was the real murder weapon , at least in that era, was considered so. ]

[Obtain Bloody Honor x2]

 …

[Well-preserved flintlock gun: In order to improve his shooting level, the former holder Practice until you inadvertently hit a passing ‘George’ descendant. ]

[Obtain Bloody Honor x1]

……

Goethe one after another touch, although the face is calm, the heart is ecstatic for this harvest .

And Zachley on the side also pretended to pick up a long sword that looked sharper.

The visitor frowned seems unable to confirm the origin of this long sword.

“This is the weapon of the Popen Dynasty. It is rumored to be the sword of the last Prince – although there is no clear historical record, the forging process of the long sword and the pattern on the hilt, The gems make me very sure of this.”

Pentel introduced the long sword.

“That’s it!”

Zachley suddenly nodded.

Then, he put the long sword on Pentel’s neck.

The visitor smiles and says-

“Robbery!”
