"Here is the detailed layout of the entire mansion, which includes sentries, secret passages, and the location of the inner castle. You should know these plans by heart."
Qiao Ya whispered and handed out the drawing. After Mo Bei took it into his hand, he turned and left without saying a word about what he was worried about.
Mo Bei opened the drawings. There were about ten drawings in total, which showed the complexity of the structure of this mansion.
He glanced at each one and had a general understanding of the various hidden facilities, especially the drawings of the building they were in. After studying them carefully for a while, his brows under the helmet furrowed.
Sure enough, it is impossible to mark a place like the family treasure trove here.
However, these drawings are also extremely important to them, and are much more intuitive than asking Joya. And given Perona's IQ, he might not be able to get some clues from it, so he rolled up the drawing and threw it directly into the inventory.
In a room at the end of the corridor, Akali took out the drawings from the inventory and spread them out on the table. Perona's eyes flashed and she remembered the drawings completely in her mind.
The puppet that was groping around in the bedroom also stopped, quietly put the cabinet that had just been moved back into place, glanced back and forth in the room, and finally moved its gaze to its feet.
After Perona controlled the puppet to enter the bedroom, she had been looking for a possible secret door. After understanding the layout around the bedroom, she simply gave up and continued exploring the surrounding walls.
This bedroom is located on the second floor, which is also the top floor of the building. Although there are not many floors, this room is almost at the same eye level as the tops of several surrounding towers.
Although it is built at the highest location in this area, the height is still a bit abnormal for a two-story building.
After ignoring the confusion between the high hall and the floor-to-ceiling windows, Perona quickly realized that the floor in this room was ridiculously thick, and there was probably a mezzanine in it.
But after she controlled the puppet to lift all the thick carpets, she only saw square stone slabs, which were polished very smooth, and the edges were all perfectly fitted, without exception.
Taking a cane found in the room, she gently tapped each slate, but there was no abnormal sound. No matter how you looked at it, it was an ordinary slate, but with Perona's persistence in the treasure house, she would not Just give up.
Although when controlling the puppet, her mental strength was only about 20% of her own, and she could not let go of her mental power to search, but her eyesight was not weakened at all, and she quickly guessed the existence of the phantom array from the layout of the room.
After deducing the direction, she found the array core hidden in the bedpost. After stopping the activation, the ground shook like water waves, and a stone slab at the end of the bed took on a completely different appearance than before.
There are secret patterns engraved on that stone slab, which have the effect of isolating the perception of spiritual power. When you open this special stone slab, there is only a narrow passage underneath. After entering, ordinary people have to bend their waists to pass.
For a mage, this kind of arrangement can still restore the outside to its original state after entering the passage, which is very concealed.
At this time, Perona, who was in another room, her beautiful big eyes began to shine.
After discovering the tunnel, the puppet immediately stood up and went to open the door to a crack. Mo Bei ducked in and asked in surprise:
"Is it discovered so soon?"
"It's just the location of the secret passage, I don't know where it leads yet." The puppet answered.
"Let's go down and have a look." Mo Bei pointed at the entrance of the passage and motioned for the puppet to go first.
He followed the puppet, hunched over and walked forward for more than ten steps, before the passage turned vertically downward.
There is not even a ladder in the passage, but fortunately it is relatively narrow, and the walls of the passage seem to be deliberately made uneven, so stretching your limbs is almost like climbing a ladder.
It slipped down at least five feet, which was far beyond the depth of the building's basement. The passage wall was also built with stones and turned into a seamless stone wall, but it stopped abruptly below and there was no way out.
There was no change in the expressions of Mo Bei and Perona. This was definitely not what it seemed on the surface, but it should be another barrier. This passage was probably leading to the family treasure house and could also be used as a safe haven.
If the entire building is razed to the ground, without this barrier it will become a mouse hole on the ridge.
Mo Bei looked at the uneven stone wall, but there were no gaps. However, the stone under his feet had a hole as thick as a thumb.
He took a searchlight and looked inside. It was only half a foot deep. There was nothing strange about it. He fiddled with it for a while with a crossbow arrow, but still made no progress.
"If this is a keyhole, wouldn't the key have disappeared with Conrad's death..." Mo Bei fiddled with the small holes with the crossbow arrows, mumbling.
"Wait for me." After hearing these words, Perona took control of the puppet and climbed up on hands and feet. After a few minutes, she slipped down again, with a cane in her hand, which was exactly what she had just used. The one that cleverly listens to sounds.
With her extraordinary memory and Mo Bei's reminder, she immediately remembered that the size of this small hole was very close to the thickness of a cane.
Sure enough, it looked a bit old, but after inserting the cane with gorgeous gems on the handle into the small hole, the size was exactly the same, and the gems on it immediately gave off a dim halo.
The stone the two stepped on slowly sank with a slight sound, and soon an exit appeared on the side of the passage wall. When the searchlight hit, a room with simple furnishings appeared.
"You're good, you can find all of this..." Mo Bei felt that Perona was definitely serious about finding the treasure house.
"This should be something like a family heirloom, and it is of great importance. Even the head of the family cannot take it with him. It is safe to disguise it as an ordinary object."
When Perona controlled the puppet to speak, it was normal to break sentences, and Mo Bei also found this very magical.
"You have to carry heirlooms with you, right?" Mo Bei said again.
"Only those who have no one to pass on would think so," said the puppet.
"..." Mo Bei was speechless.
The two pulled out their canes and entered the room. The stone rose again and blocked the entrance again.
There was a trickling sound in the room, coming from a stone hole in the corner. The thin water flowed continuously into a narrow, long and shallow stone trough, bringing in a trace of air. The overflowing water flowed from another stone hole. Go without knowing the source or destination.
"This should be a temporary shelter... but where is the wealth hidden?" Mo Bei said as he searched the surroundings carefully with a searchlight.
"Another phantom formation." The puppet walked towards the stone trough filled with water, as if the real Conrad was present, and immersed his cane in the water with great confidence.
The phantom formation acting on the stone wall was released, and a circular stone gate with secret patterns, like a huge gold coin, finally appeared in front of the two of them.
At this time, it had only been three hours since they entered Caldeum City. It was still dark outside. Mo Bei looked at the circular stone door and only wanted to say four words about Perona's treasure hunting ability and wealth:
"That's outrageous!"
