Lu Yuan walked over, and a stench suddenly came out, making him frown slightly.
And elves soon appeared from the tunnel, old and young, male and female, more than ten people in total.
These people were all in ragged clothes and disheveled hair, and were even more embarrassed than Nidia.
"We are all poor people hiding here because they are avoiding Caroline's clutches." Nidia touched an elf boy who had been staring at Lu Yuan, and the boy lowered his head.
"If the lord really comes here to solve the crisis in Lorenier City, I may be able to help."
"Oh?" Lu Yuan looked interested.
"You also know that I used to be the lord's maid. I know a secret passage that can lead directly to the lord's mansion from the city. Caroline is studying undead magic there. As long as she is solved, the crisis in Lorenier City can be solved. ." Nitya whispered.
And such a good thing!
The corner of Lu Yuan's lips curled up, "In that case, then you can take me there. It is my duty to solve the evil here!"
Seeing that the team had almost rested.
And four young men emerged from among the elves, together with Nidia, to lead the way for them.
Could this be the Elf Leading Party?
These guys are indeed familiar with the terrain, and they led them to drill into the alleys. They did not encounter any ghosts along the way.
After walking for half an hour, they came to a wealthy residential area.
Nidia took them into an ordinary two-story building.
The things inside are a bit messy, and there are some rotten plants on the workbench, as well as some scattered tools.
The owner here seems to be an alchemist.
Lu Yuan's eyes were suddenly attracted by something on the shelf, which was a book.
Lu Yuan pulled it out and gently patted away the dust on it. However, the thick book was not rotten yet.
The first half of this book records some alchemy experiences and techniques, while the back is the diary of the alchemist named Yves.
[Year of the Griffin, May 9th. A ghost wolf's lair appeared outside the city of Lorainil. This is a big threat. The Lord asked us to make some sacred potions. Damn it, doesn't she know that the research on rune mana potions will soon have results! 】
[Year of the Griffin, May 12th. The Elf Guard's expedition against the Phantom Wolf's lair was not going well, and the Lord decided to send Lady Caroline to personally bring the alchemist with her on the expedition. Damn it, are those Elf Guards all just losers? ! 】
[Year of the Griffin, May 14th. Lady Caroline is really a genius of the Silverleaf family. She destroyed the ghost wolf lair. Oh, that necklace is so beautiful, and the magical energy on it is even more addictive! 】
[Year of the Griffin, May 17th. Lady Caroline paused her research on the rune mana potion. She wanted to concentrate on studying the necklace, but the first batch of rune mana potion would be produced soon. Could it be that Lady Caroline had lost her head? 】
[Year of the Griffin, May 30th. Without Lady Caroline's leadership, the research progress on rune mana potions has almost stalled. 】
[Year of the Griffin, June 10th. Lady Caroline decided to lead us to study that magic necklace. Oh my God, it was really a gift from the Elf God. There is nothing more wonderful than it in the world! 】
[Year of the Griffin, June 30th. The research on the magic necklace is in trouble, and something bad seems to be hidden in it. 】
[Year of the Griffin, July 3rd. Something is wrong. There seems to be an evil spirit living in that necklace. It's so scary! But Lady Caroline still refuses to give up research. This is definitely not a good idea! 】
[Year of the Griffin, July 23rd. Most people in the institute have given up researching the necklace. They understand that this is not a gift from the Elf God, but a temptation from evil spirits! 】
[Year of the Griffin, September 5th. Lady Caroline has gone crazy. She locked herself up day and night. She wants to resurrect her lover, but this is too crazy! She is doomed! 】
[Year of the Griffon, December 2nd. I really can’t imagine that that woman would be Lady Caroline. She was really crazy. For research, she actually captured civilians and used alchemy to extract their souls. She was once so kind and beautiful!
Should I report all this to the lord? 】
[Year of the Pegasus, January 20th. I decided to tell all this to the lord. People kept disappearing in the city, and these poor people were all murdered by Caroline...
I have to stop this. 】
The writing on the back was scrawled and confusing, and the alchemist seemed very urgent.
This alchemist once worked in the alchemy workshop, researching and making alchemical potions for the Silverleaf family.
He also witnessed the transformation of that Caroline.
All this seems to be consistent with what Nitya said.
"Lord, there is a secret passage in the wine cellar down here that leads to the lord's mansion." Nidia said.
But the elf girl showed a hint of surprise when she saw the book in his hand, "This Lord Yves was once a great alchemist, and this house is also the Lord's reward for his contribution."
"There is Yves's diary here. He recorded the changes in Caroline." Lu Yuan said.
"Lady Caroline used to be a kind and gentle elf, but ever since she obtained that terrifying necklace, she has changed! If she can be eliminated, this should also be her relief." Nidia revealed a little bit. A look of pain and sadness.
Lu Yuan nodded slightly, but said without comment, "Take us into the secret passage."
Open a secret door in the wine cellar, and a downward passage appears.
This place is very secretive, and maybe even the alchemist named Yves doesn't know about it.
The tunnel is flat and dry, with luminous crystals on the top as lighting.
It was obvious that the lord had made arrangements for a secret passage to escape.
After walking in the silent passage for more than ten minutes, Nidia opened another secret door.
Going up the road, Lu Yuan found that they came to an abandoned garden.
The passage is at the base of a tall oak tree, and through the overgrown courtyard one can see the towers twinkling in the distance.
"Lord, Caroline is doing her evil experiments in the mage tower in front. You must stop her." Nidia said earnestly.
"I will." Lu Yuan nodded slightly and slowly lowered his hand.
Holding the handle of the knife.
"Kill them!" Lu Yuan's words were cold and emotionless.
The black sword was instantly unsheathed, and the sharp sword energy slashed towards the elf girl.
