Darnell did not force it, nodded and said: "Well, the intelligence says that although these undead souls are reincarnating, they will recognize people, and will react on the new night based on the actions of the person involved the night before, dividing into two. It’s not easy to destroy them all at once.”
Before Gavin could deny it, Darnell waved to his two apprentices and said, "Let's go!"
As the admission ticket in his hand flashed, a gap opened in the mist barrier, and three paladins walked slowly into it with a warhammer in one hand and a shield in the other with solemn expressions.
Through the cracked gap, Gavin glimpsed the true face of Vizeme Manor.
This is a very standard castle manor. Behind the huge courtyard stands a three-story, square-structured spire castle.
There are no windows on the first floor. The windows on the second floor are tall and small. Rather than being windows, they are more suitable as shooting holes. The windows on the third floor are tall and large. They are made of expensive colored glazed glass. A small part of them is damaged. , like a monster's huge mouth, dark and gloomy.
The huge courtyard is deserted, with weeds that are more than half a person deep. The fog barrier can prevent living creatures from entering and exiting the Vizeme Manor, but it cannot stop the footsteps of these plants, or in other words, this is their home.
This gap disappeared in an instant, and the foggy state returned again.
Gavin and Anna were busy setting up camp, as if they were preparing to stay here for a long time.
Before they could complete setting up the camp, three paladins walked out of Vizeme Manor.
"Did you find anything?" Regina stepped forward and asked curiously.
"No, the manor has been searched repeatedly inside and outside, and there are no more new discoveries." Darnell shook his head regretfully, "It seems we can only wait until night."
They just went in to check out the place, it was midday, and it was not the Shadow Realm, so ghosts generally did not appear.
"The food is ready, let's eat together and then have a good sleep." Gavin greeted them in the temporary camp.
"Okay." Darnell was not polite. He took his two apprentices, sat down on the floor, stretched his arms, and started eating and drinking.
Along the way, they had become accustomed to Gavin's careful arrangements for their food and daily life.
They also walk outside all year round and have good survival skills in the wild.
But compared to Gavin, they are far behind. At least they don't carry a big hanging pot around.
Eaters are short-tongued and take advantage of others softly.
Coupled with Gavin's extraordinary fighting ability.
Dick, who was originally a little unfavorable to Gavin, has softened his attitude and changed a lot.
This is also related to the detection alignment that Dick secretly lost. This half-elf boy who didn't feel like a good person to him turned out to be not an evil alignment, but a lawful neutral, and even a little bit good.
After lunch, not only the three paladins who were preparing for the night operation began to fall asleep, but also the others fell asleep and fell into a trance.
Even if they don't enter Wezeme Manor, it is a famous haunted place after all, and they can't sleep at night unless they can.
As soon as the sun set, Gavin, who was lost in thought, suddenly opened his eyes, and everyone else jumped up.
The Vizeme Manor at night was a little different again.
What shrouds here is no longer a mist, but a complete thick fog, and the shadow of Vizeme Manor can no longer be seen at all.
But I clearly feel that it is there.
A cold aura rushed towards his face, like a monster that chose people to devour.
Darnell said solemnly: "The situation is more serious than expected. Part of this manor has been dragged into the shadow plane. It forms a world of its own at night. Unexpected existences are likely to appear inside. Wait a minute, you guys be careful."
Regina frowned and said, "How could this be? The intelligence clearly stated that Vizeme Manor just looked a little unusual at night. How come it has something to do with the Shadow Plane again?"
"Normal." Darnell explained, "The Shadow Plane itself is easily attracted by places where negative energy and resentment gather, and overlaps with the Material Plane, thus forming a channel. Lord Ilmet built a Mist Knot here. Although the world prevents other people from entering by mistake, the resentment in it cannot be dissipated. As time goes by, it will naturally become easier to connect with the shadow plane. If things go on like this for a long time, Weizemei Manor will be completely dragged into the shadow plane. , it’s not impossible to become a part of it.”
"Ah?!" Regina said dumbfounded, "In this case, we are the instigators, doing bad things with good intentions."
"You can't say that. It depends on the characteristics of the undead. The mist barrier has been set up at Anka Manor for the longest time. Hasn't it always been fine?" Darnell explained, "This is a double-edged sword. It depends. How to use it, at least the good side outweighs the bad side. With the fog barrier, ordinary shadow creatures can't get through. Even if it is not solved in the end and being dragged into the shadow plane, it is not a solution. .”
"It seems that we must be cautious when setting up mist barriers in the future." Regina's expression was still solemn, and she was still taboo about the shadow plane.
Who knows, after these ghost castles are dragged into the shadow plane, they will leave a passage leading to the shadow enchantment in place.
In that case, it would not be the problem of one ghost castle, but all the surrounding land, which would be affected by erosion.
If there is another powerful immortal existence, it is not impossible to enter the material plane through here and sweep the undead disaster in the Battle Valley.
Before we finish here, it is necessary to inspect all the ghost castles with fog wards.
Fortunately, there are not many places like this. Most ghost castles are just empty, uninhabited, or occupied by monsters and bandits, and are not really haunted.
Darnell and his two apprentices carefully checked the equipment, especially the amount of holy water, and then used the admission ticket again to open the door to Vizeme Manor.
The situation inside was obviously different from that during the day.
Not only was the fog thicker, it was also darker, exuding a biting coldness, which was the result of a high concentration of negative energy.
All kinds of weird howls were faintly coming from it.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Gavin could clearly see a black shadow flashing through the depths of the black mist, as if something was peeking out through the cracks.
The three holy warriors who slowly stepped into it were radiating holy white light.
Wherever it passed, like sunlight shining on white snow, the black fog quickly melted, and faint screams came from it, and those senses of voyeurism immediately dissipated.
Worthy of being called the Nemesis of the Undead, the Paladin does have unique advantages in dealing with the undead.
Especially a paladin like Darnell who is above the ordinary level and dares to break into the Shadow Realm.
Not to mention, it is just a Vizeme Manor located between the material plane and the shadow plane.
As long as those undead monsters from the shadow plane don't come, if they do come, whether they can leave is a big question.
Gavin pulled out the revolver cannon, which was his biggest reliance against undead creatures.
Anna worked hard to make holy water. She filled all the tools in the camp that could hold water with water, and then infused them with positive energy to become holy water.
Andrew, the dog demon who had been following them ten kilometers away, was also summoned by Gavin using long-distance communication.
This is Gavin and Anna's biggest bodyguard.
In the battle with the derelict giant, this devil was the one who gained the most from Lord Virginia's side. He devoured the souls of three Cyclops and four derelict giants, directly increasing his life dice by four times. The number reached fifteen, starting a new round of evolution. The size changed from large to super large. The skyrocketing attributes made him directly transform into a high-level devil, a powerful one.

Just because he was traveling with three paladins, Gavin usually didn't dare to let the dog demon get close and kept at least ten kilometers away.
Even so, Darnell was obviously alert. If something happened, a group of people came to search the surrounding area carefully.
Even with all his knowledge, he never imagined that there was a big devil following behind them.
The ghosts and ghosts howled in Wezeme Manor for most of the night. It was not the three paladins who were running around, but the demons and monsters inside.
When Darnell came out with two apprentices, they looked exhausted.
Most of the black fog in Weizeme Manor has dissipated, and even the Yin Qi has dispersed a lot. It is completely empty and no sound can be heard.
No need to ask.
These three people must have cleaned up the Vizeme Manor from beginning to end.
After coming out, the three paladins did not fall asleep. Instead, they closed their eyes and rested until dawn. After completing their prayers and eating the breakfast prepared by Gavin, they fell asleep.
Now Gavin is beginning to feel lucky that he made a wise decision.
With three holy warriors helping him take the lead, he saves a lot of trouble.
Otherwise, with the posture revealed by Wezeme Manor yesterday, even if you bring the dog demon in with you, it will take a lot of effort.
It wasn't until he woke up that Darnell roughly explained: "There were a lot of shadow creatures that were attracted inside, and we have eliminated them. There should be none tonight, but during the battle, they accidentally affected Cologne Fei." Sir Er and others have to purify them together. I'm afraid our situation is not very optimistic. We just have to wait and see what happens tonight."
Sure enough, at night, when the three paladins entered again, Vizeme Manor just felt a little cold, without the chaos of the demons last night.
But not long after they entered, the sound of ghosts crying and howling was heard again.
It only took less than an hour for them to withdraw.
The battle was obviously over soon, but the expressions of the three Darnells were even more solemn than last night.
Because as soon as they entered the Wezeme Manor, Sir Colonfels attacked them with a ferocious face, and then Estelle and Amanda appeared, along with several ghosts.
Solving them did not consume much energy from Darnell and the others.
But the meaning of this incident is very obvious. They have failed to purify Vizeme Manor, and they have also fallen into the infinite reincarnation of the previous purifiers.
Sir Colonfell, Estelle and Amanda, these three binding spirits cannot be completely killed.
They will always come back to life again when night falls the next day.
Due to being dragged into the shadow plane, this resurrection has taken on new changes.
The more times they were killed, the more anger these three binding spirits accumulated, and their strength began to gradually increase. The ghost monsters summoned by them became more and more powerful.
