Relax, I'm not some troublemaker from a role-playing game.

Chapter 31 Enter the village quietly, don't fire!



Chapter 31 Enter the village quietly, don't fire!

Looking at the messages Serpes left him, Bai Xi was silent for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.

"What is all this nonsense...?"

Despite being disguised as a character card, it was still directly opened in the box.

There was a feeling of helplessness, as if I had been caught in the act of adultery.

They even got their sovereignty declared along with it, that's absolutely incredible!

Although I achieved my goal of meeting Serpes, I still felt inexplicably headache-inducing.

Especially this one, even so, it shows how it directly and without hesitation fulfilled its own wish...

Bai Xi always had this strange feeling that even after he had been flirting with other women, the woman at home would still coax him gently and take care of him wholeheartedly.

Don't make me feel guilty, like I'm the one who's betrayed you! It's so ridiculous, you jerk!

So what exactly is this melon? Can I have a bite?

KP asked curiously, while Baek Hee rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"I can't even figure this out myself, my head is throbbing... Instead of just watching this drama unfold, why don't you give me some information and tell me what to do with the clues in the basement?"

[Wasn't Serpes's wish fulfillment enough? Now she's set her sights on me? So desperate?]

"It's outrageous that you can even drive on this crappy road..."

Bai Xi's lips twitched, but at the same time, a helpless expression appeared on his face.

Although saying this to KP was partly a joke, but...

Baek Hee really hoped that KP could reveal some information.

The reason is simple: Seraphine provided far too little information...

[In the basement of Mansfield Park, there lies the created thing, enduring with the miracle of life, struggling with the essence of despair, thus becoming what is known as the profane.]

Excellent, the perfect riddle solver!

Bai Xi almost had the urge to activate his divine powers and go back to ask the riddle again.

But considering that Serpes might actually want him to do that, Bai Xi hesitated for a moment before making her decision.

Isn't it good too?

That's fine.

Ultimately, I was still reluctant to bother that person again.

Although Serapace told me to look for her more often in the future... the question is, who would dare to look for her?

Who knows how distorted the fulfillment of a wish might be? Even Bai Xi wouldn't dare say that her wish wouldn't cause any problems.

If you make the wrong wish, it's entirely possible that you could die instantly.

Therefore, just to be on the safe side, it's best not to trouble Serpes with things that you can do yourself...

Moreover, the most troublesome thing about calling out to Serpes is not the ritual or the communication, but rather the hurdle that Bai Xi himself has to overcome.

Every time she called out, Bai Xi was reminded of the world she had repeatedly tried to say goodbye to, yet which she couldn't bear to leave behind.

Even though he felt that the world that should have been far away was now beckoning to him, as if the phantom of the past had reappeared before his eyes... it was not the time yet.

So let's wait a little longer.

Shaking his head to clear the thought from his mind, Bai Xi sighed and began to face the problem that was giving him a headache.

After a brief hesitation, Bai Xi opened the communication channel and contacted Stoffey, with whom he had recently formed an alliance.

[Bai Xi: Are you there? Want to check the clues in the basement?]

[Storfy: ?]

At four in the morning, Stoffey replied almost instantly; his dedication to staying up all night was truly admirable.

So, after thinking for a moment, Bai Xi typed another line:

[Bai Xi: Hurry up, hurry up, get it done faster]

[Storfy: I'm not taking a dump, bro!]

Not only did they not understand why the mourner hadn't slept by 4 a.m., but they also expressed their indignation at being forced to stay up all night due to diarrhea at 4 a.m. and being harassed by others.

But after a period of annoyance, he still squatted on the toilet at Mansfield Manor and passed on the clues he had gathered over the past few days to Bai Xi.

[Storfy: There are too many clues to organize, so I'll just talk about what I know right now]

[Storfy: Strictly speaking, the basement was a storage room, the kind that no one except old Mansfield was allowed to enter.]

[Storfy: However, after he died, the keys and everything else fell into the hands of my older brother, and he goes to the basement every morning around eight o'clock, and sometimes he goes there around eight or nine o'clock at night as well.]

[Storfy: In the basement... I guess it's some stuff from the mystical world that old Mansfield acquired. That's how it's usually written in mods, right?]

Bai Xi: Okay, I got it. I'll see if I can go down and check tomorrow morning.

After typing this sentence, Bai Xi turned off the communication channel, already having made up his mind.

Stoffey is definitely up to no good, otherwise he wouldn't have given this clue so readily and generously.

Bai Xi didn't have any objections to this. After all, it was a collaboration, and it was impossible to let the other party not even get a sip of soup.

Just take precautions.

"Chaos goes into the basement... Looks like he'll have to go back to his old ways."

Bai Xi muttered to himself as he lay on the bed, slowly drifting into a semi-sleep state, waiting for the next day to arrive, a smile unconsciously curving his lips.

Who said his 80 Stealth skill was useless?

That 80 stealth skill is so useful!

........................

At eight o'clock in the morning, Chaos sat solemnly at the long table in the manor hall, while servants streamed past him, setting out a sumptuous breakfast.

Before him stood the still-living heirs and tenants. Wagra's death last night seemed to have brought nothing of particular significance.

Suddenly, a servant approached and whispered in Chaos's ear:

"Sir, Mr. Bai, the tenant, said he doesn't have the habit of getting up early for breakfast... and that he won't be coming back. We'll talk about lunch later."

Chaos turned around, his calm eyes fixed on the servant, making the servant feel a sudden unease.

"Okay, I understand."

Finally, Chaos nodded slightly, allowing the servant to breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly leave.

Serving the master always made him feel somewhat flustered.

This was just a minor incident at the breakfast party.

So the breakfast continued. Only after Chaos had finished his food, wiped the crumbs from his mouth with a handkerchief, and the others had all left did Chaos stand up.

Then he looked around, then lowered his eyes. A wave of fatigue washed over him.

"Father, can I really... keep this?"

He muttered something under his breath, then shook his head, barely managing to erase the weariness and coldness from his face, making his expression appear somewhat gentle.

Although it seemed somewhat comical and incongruous, as if such an expression shouldn't be on him at this moment.

He then strode toward the depths of the manor, the key jingling at his waist.

That's the basement.

However, amidst the monotonous sound of footsteps, there seemed to be a faint clattering of dice.

Kochaus could not hear.

Only at the back, Bai Xi whistled silently as he looked at his dice roll.

Stealth check score = 29/80, success on difficulty.

So, Bai Xi smiled and followed Chaos's footsteps.

The stealth operation has begun.
