Lord of Secrets

Or maybe Forna was very confident, Horus did not find anyone else around the room.

The room was a little dark, with only one window. There was a candle on the candlestick on the table, and there were candles on the wall to illuminate the surroundings.

There were some wood carvings around, carved with various abstract patterns, making the whole room look like a retro style.

Horus noticed a book next to the candlestick on the table, and then approached it gently.

"Historical Wardrobe"

This is the name of the book. Horus just flipped through a few pages and knew that the book mainly recorded the evolution and style of women's clothing.

At this time, Horus suddenly felt that the woman had some bad taste, maybe the other party's smile at that time was a little malicious.

Because this book is obviously not too suitable for a man.

Horus did not care too much here, and turned his attention back to the whole room. He already knew that the basement was inside, but he needed to find the entrance first.

...

Horus returned to the banquet hall.

He had figured out the structure here, and the route from 341 to the banquet hall had been designed.

Now there are only the characters in the script.

So, Horus wandered around the hall, communicating with several ladies from time to time, but his eyes fell on other people.

It was 7:30 in the evening, and the birthday party had not started yet. Horus was not in a hurry, and half an hour was almost up.

"This beautiful lady, can I invite you to go outside to enjoy the moon? It is said that it is a unique custom in the northern continent." Horus said gently to the plump woman in front of him.

Perhaps because Horus is a "psychic", and his appearance is more outstanding than most people present, it is very easy to give these women an inexplicable feeling.

This is like those priests, who always convince those ignorant people from the bottom of their hearts.

So, at this moment, the woman hesitated for a moment, and then readily agreed: "Of course, sir, my name is Trachi."

"Okay, Miss Trachi!" Horus greeted with a smile.

To be honest, at this moment, Horus felt that he might have the potential to be a romantic aristocrat, and at the same time felt a little guilty about it.

He discovered this prey from other people's conversations, and then further communicated with other ladies, and learned the other party's identity indirectly. She was the daughter of a viscount.

Trachi's father, Mylari Bendora, was a member of the Xisong Elders' Council. He had a certain say in this elders' council composed of only twelve nobles, and even joined forces with others to fight against Forna.

And her husband's family was also one of the twelve seats, which could be regarded as a marriage to deepen the relationship between families. In short, in this upper class society, Horus saw many rules.

Trachi's identity was the reason why Horus targeted her.

However, after wandering around, Horus knew that some people had not come tonight. It was said that an accident had occurred. Horus felt a little strange about this.

Without thinking too much, Horus took Trachi to the designated place and teased each other from time to time.

In this atmosphere, Trachi felt that she could not help it. She was a little picky. Horus's appearance was the kind she imagined, and she didn't know how much more pleasing to the eye than her husband.

A little indulged in the other party's sweet talk, Traqi felt more and more moved, and she didn't mind having a wonderful night.

It's not that she hasn't done this before, just like Traqi never cares about her husband, her husband can't care about her.

Maybe her husband has found out that she walked out with a handsome man, but still didn't say much.

"So, does the moon have any special meaning?" Traqi asked curiously.

She is particularly interested in the North Continent, which is why she agreed directly when she heard about the North Continent from the other party. Of course, Traqi is not so superficial. If it was an ordinary person with an ugly appearance, she would not bother to pay attention to the other party.

Horus was silent for a while, looking at the wall, as if his eyes were drawn to the distance, and slowly said: "The moon represents longing and spiritual communication. Lovers who are separated from each other will look at the moon when it is full, wondering whether the other person is also looking at the moon and missing each other. So, the moon brings two people closer and deepens their feelings for each other."

Traqi's eyes flashed, but a trace of desire emerged in her heart, but this desire seemed to burn her whole body.

Sighing slightly, Traqi turned her eyes back to Horus and said softly: "It's a pity that the moon tonight doesn't seem to be round."

Today is the 15th... Hearing this, Horus was silent.

However, it was only a moment, and Horus joked: "Because we are very close."

Then Horus walked into the corridor outside first.

I would rather it was a full moon tonight... Traqi looked at Horus with a hint of loss, and then followed him.

"What kind of person do you think the emperor of Feroza is?" Traqi asked after a long time.

Hearing this, Horus stopped. He didn't know why Trachi suddenly asked this question, but judging from the gossip from a certain lady, it didn't seem strange for Trachi to ask this question.

But at the same time, Horus didn't know how to answer this question, because the man named Ubermo was so high and mighty that sometimes he even thought that it was because of his inaction that so many people died in Baifeng City.

Even though he knew very well that this had nothing to do with the other party. Especially when he saw Yuri, Horus suddenly felt that Feroza was a paradise.

Coming back to his senses, Horus whispered: "He should be a lucky man!"

Trachi's eyes were misty, and he said with a strange tone: "He is indeed a lucky man. It would be great if I were also that lucky man..."

At the end, Trachi's voice gradually became weaker.

Horus felt that the other party was a little weird, and it seemed that there was something behind his words. Thinking of Ubermo being the emperor at a young age, but he didn't have a partner, Horus suddenly realized something.

But Ubermo was the emperor of Feroza, and Trachi was a nobleman in Yuri...

This was a national feud.

Should Horus say that the nobles had no concept of the country in their eyes, or that women were more emotional?

But these were not what Horus cared about.

What he cared about was that Trachi had just expressed his affection for him before, but now he showed strangeness to another man in front of one man.

Horus didn't know what to say, even though he didn't like Trachi.

He immediately cleared his mind of distractions and prepared for the next action, just hoping that Trachi would not leave a psychological shadow.

...

Some images appeared in Trachi's mind, and suddenly she seemed to see something, her pupils shrank, and then she lost consciousness.

Horus then carefully carried the fainted Trachi to room 341.

He just used the "tombstone" to pull the skeleton out of the tombstone, and then showed his teeth and claws in front of Trachi, and then knocked Trachi unconscious himself.

This was his purpose, to let Trachi wake up near the entrance of the basement, witness the scene, and then tell everyone everything in the hall.

Of course, this is just one part.

The basement is a distance away from the hall. If Forna reacts quickly, it is very likely that the evidence will be destroyed. This is not impossible in a world with extraordinary power. If this is the case, then even if Trachi is of noble status, it will be difficult to overthrow Forna.

Fortunately, there was no one else watching around the basement. Horus only needed to make some big noises during the time when Trachi returned to the hall to speed up the nobles' reaction and shorten the arrival time.

...

Horus did not want to alert the enemy, so he only found the suspected entrance mechanism before and did not go directly into the basement.

Otherwise, with the "tombstone", he would not need to find the entrance at all.

Put Trachi on the chair, Horus first went directly into the stairs through the "tombstone".

At this time, he held the dinner knife he had taken from the hall before, and stepped into the "tombstone" cautiously.

He only felt some of the weak breath of the living, but not the strong breath. Horus guessed that Forna had transferred everyone away to prevent accidents.

However, Horus remained cautious.

...

When he came to the basement, Horus vaguely heard the hoarse cry, as if he had been crying for a long time, so the voice was weak and full of despair.

In particular, Horus smelled a foul smell.

At this moment, Horus' heart was clenched. Even though he had communicated with spirits before and knew some of the consequences of the children, he couldn't help but breathe heavily when he heard these faint voices.

He walked in slowly. "Graveguarding" concealed his breath and calmed him down a little.

Along the dark corridor, Horus finally saw the scene in front of him.

In the cage, the bodies of those children were full of whip marks, branding, and blood and flesh. They were unable to open their eyes, or dared not open their eyes to look at the darkness of the world.

Numbness, despair...

It was very spacious inside. Some of the children's mummies were still hanging on the execution racks. Some limbs, bones, and dissected bodies were placed on the stinking long table, and there were some minced meat on the ground.

The whole basement was full of stains, which was the filth and darkness of the world.

This was a slaughterhouse, which was terrifying and mixed with a foul smell.

If Horus hadn't "guarded the grave" himself, he might have turned pale and vomited immediately after seeing this scene.

At this moment, Horus was a little worried about whether it was a good idea to let Teraki see this scene.

I am really sinful... Horus sighed expressionlessly.

He immediately returned to the entrance, opened the mechanism, placed Teraki at the end of the basement corridor, and then gently woke him up.

Fortunately, Horus did not use heavy hands before, until Teraki's eyelashes moved slightly, Horus hid instantly.
