Lord of Secrets

On Thursday morning, Ubermore opened the door of the exchange as usual, but until it closed, Viscount Lorry still did not arrive.

This made Ubermo wonder whether the other party's matter was not urgent.

But just as Ubermore finished his lunch, Banky walked up to him and said: "Master, Viscount Lorry is here to visit."

Ubermo nodded when he heard this, wiped his mouth with a silk scarf, and then said: "Invite him to the living room, and then prepare to order black tea!"

Banky then said: "Yes!"

After Banky left, Ubermore came to the living room and picked up the scattered newspapers on the table.

After a while, Viscount Lorry and his butler Cole came to the living room. Ubermore immediately put down the newspaper in his hand, and then said: "Viscount Lorry, please sit down!"

Viscount Lowery took off his hat, handed it to Cole, then came to the sofa and sat on it.

Ubermore then said politely: "I am very honored that Viscount Lorry came to my home. The house is a bit simple. I hope Viscount Lorry will not dislike it."

Viscount Lowery laughed, and then said: "Anyway, this place is much better than my manor. After all, it was designed by Smith."

He was indeed not lying, but this place was too small. If he had to choose, he still liked the manor.

After a few pleasantries, Ubermore said bluntly: "The Viscount is usually very busy with work, why do you want to come to me?"

Viscount Lowery narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said: "There is indeed one thing. I hope Mr. Amenra can help."

Ubermo did not directly agree or refuse, he just asked: "I don't know what it is?"

"Before talking about this matter, I would like to ask Mr. Amenra whether he is a professional and whether he is confident in handling dangerous mausoleums and ruins?" Viscount Lowery did not directly say what the matter was, but asked.

Looking at the other person's smile that never stopped, Ubermo said with a smile: "I'm still alive now!"

Ubermo did not answer him directly, but instead said something seemingly incomprehensible.

Viscount Lorry's face became more wrinkled when he heard this, and he immediately said: "Then Mr. Amonra, are you interested in exploring a mysterious ruins with my team?"

The ruins... Ubermo always felt a little strange.

Without waiting for Ubermo's answer, he said again: "That site has never been explored by anyone else. It is very complete, and preliminary exploration shows that there are some things that extraordinary people are interested in. As for the distribution of property, if Mr. Amon-Ra has If you have the ability, no matter how much you gain during the exploration process, we will not take it back.”

We... Ubermore squinted his eyes and noticed the words in Viscount Lorry's words, which showed that it was not just Viscount Lorry and his men, but also other nobles.

After all, if it were just him, he would never put himself in the same position as his subordinates. This is the honor of a noble.

At this time, the maid came over with black tea and placed two cups of black tea on the table. Ubermo then picked up a cup of black tea and took a slow sip.

He always felt that Viscount Lorry's intention was not simple, and the conditions were too generous. Generally, cooperation was only based on distribution of work, but when cooperating with nobles, the nobles basically occupied the dominant position.

So Ubermo didn't believe there was anything fishy in this.

Ubermo looked at the white mist coming out of the cup and thought in his mind.

There are several possible reasons. One is that this exploration is very dangerous. He wants a cannon fodder, so he doesn’t care about his promises... Another possibility is that he is very optimistic about me and feels that it is difficult to successfully explore without me... Finally The thing is that he doesn't care about other treasures, he has his own goals...

Listing several possibilities in his mind, Ubermo was the first to rule out the second one. He claimed to be a treasure hunter, but he had no famous deeds, and he only identified certain items and could not explain anything.

The first type, he regards himself as an idiot and thinks he can be tempted. This is not impossible. After all, people’s impression of treasure hunters is that they are profit-seeking and crazy. But according to previous conversations with him, the other person at least has some brains and will not solidify impressions on people so casually.

Especially if what the other party said is true, then this ruins contains rich treasures, then you must be careful when choosing a collaborator. And the other party has already mentioned the extraordinary person vaguely, which means that the other party knows that he is an extraordinary person, so he must confirm the pros and cons even more.

Because if he is not careful, he will be destroyed by the extraordinary, unless he is very confident.

The third option is most likely.

But these are just Ubermo's preliminary guesses.

Viscount Lorry did not urge Ubermore to answer. Instead, he said: "This ruins is an old castle, the former family home of Viscount Wigginbei."

Sure enough... A glimmer of light flashed in Ubermore's eyes. When Viscount Lorry mentioned the ruins before, Ubermore would always think of the castle mentioned by Sguren last night.

This is a gut feeling.

And now, Viscount Lorry's words made Ubermore more certain that Sgulen had lied to him, and he definitely had his own purpose.

Then he thought that at the last party, Viscount Lowery had at least a good relationship with Baying Lake. Considering the "we" he mentioned before, the other one was most likely Baying Lake.

Then this involves Xander, and Skullen is "evil" towards Xander.

It may be true that he needs the secret medicine materials. After all, the most perfect deception is not all lies. On the other hand, it is to hinder Shand's actions and drag himself into the water.

It's full of malice... Ubemo complained in his heart. He always felt that the other party was complicated and must have a secret.

Ubemo was not angry because of this. There was no need, and he would not fight with Sgullen directly and escalate to a life-and-death enemy. After all, he was not bloodthirsty. Not to mention that this was just his own guess, another point was that the other party's fate was 5, which was not easy to solve.

There was another reason. There were many people around Sgullen who had a good relationship with him, and if Gudehui had to choose, he would probably choose Sgullen. These were two extraordinary people, and things would become more complicated. Besides, he still needed to digest the secret medicine.

Of course, this was not the main reason. He was not in danger yet, and he had talked with Sgullen in the Wind Town. The other party was not a vicious person. He wanted to drag Ubemo into the water. Maybe he needed someone to break the situation.

As for the consequences of joining the game, Ubemo didn't know whether the other party knew it. If he really had malicious intentions and purely regarded himself as cannon fodder, then Ubemo would not be indifferent. If he used himself only when he was sure that he was alive, then Ubemo would not kill the other party directly.

But it was limited to not killing the other party.

Of course, these are just Ubemo's guesses, but no matter what the purpose is, Ubemo and Sgullen's relationship has a crack, and Ubemo is only considering how to deal with their relationship.

At least from the current point of view, Ubemo has no idea of ​​killing the other party, but he can't just laugh it off. Since the other party wants to use him, Ubemo can now turn around and use his identity as "Amon Ra" to do something.

As for the question of whether the other party knows the identity of "Amon Ra" at that time, Ubemo is not too worried. The other party will definitely not appear in public, and Ubemo can completely treat him as not knowing him. Even if he is exposed in the end, it doesn't matter.

"Amon Ra" only met him once and dealt with some things at the same time. They were not friends. Anyway, Ubemo just wanted to know the other party's purpose, and the process was not important.

So after thinking for a moment, Ubemo decided to agree to Viscount Lori instead of Sgullen's request.

But he still needed to ask some questions, and then he put down the cup and asked: "So when are you going to explore?"

"I will send someone to pick you up on Monday morning!" Viscount Lori still replied with a smile, like the pleasure of successfully seducing someone.

Monday morning... Ubemo complained a few words in his heart. His exchange was going to close again. This was simply too unprofessional.

But he just complained a few words in his heart, and then said: "Then I agree, but I need you to provide more information about the castle. After all, you, Viscount, don't want people to die there."

Listening to Ubemo's words, Viscount Lori felt a little strange. He could feel the change in the other party's tone before and after. But he didn't think much about it. As a treasure hunter, he was always a little rebellious. Although he was gentle, he sometimes spoke in a tone that seemed to be commanding.

Then Viscount Lori replied: "That's fine. I'll ask the butler to bring you the information in advance."

Ubemo nodded.

Viscount Lori stood up and said: "Then I'll leave first. I wish you a good harvest that day."

"Thank you for your blessing, Viscount!"

Ubemo responded, and then stood up with him, and then said to Banky: "Please help me send Viscount Lori off."

He didn't intend to send them off directly.

Banky said: "Yes!"

Then, Viscount Lori took the hat from the butler, put it on, and left.

Ubemo watched them leave, then sat back on the sofa, drank the black tea in his teacup in one gulp, then took the cup of black tea that Viscount Lori had not drunk, felt the slightly hot temperature, and drank it directly.

…

This is the ninth day, the ninth day since Horus came to the Dilafe Peak. He has searched every corner of the village these days, but found nothing.

Horus did not find anything similar to the manuscript that Thornes had found before. Perhaps they had all been found and destroyed by "Romz".

At this moment, the sun was high in the sky, but it was not dazzling, like an ink-stained disk. Horus sat on a branch in the deep forest and squinted his eyes to look at the sun.

He had already planned to leave!
