Chapter 498: Accidental Discovery
Allen directly brought the bowl full of thick soup to his mouth, took a big sip of the soup, and waited for Ruola to talk about her business. Ruola glanced at him, leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice, "I want to rob Graal's mansion!"
Allen almost spit out a mouthful of soup, his face flushed, and he finally swallowed what was in his mouth, and he was relieved. Then he shook his head and said, "I heard it right, what did you just say? To rob Viscount Graal? What kind of business is this?"
"You don't know that, Graal is not a good guy. After following my brother for so many years, I don't know how much dirty money he has embezzled. For fear of being a real person, he dare not hide the money in his own territory I put it in the mansion, but in the mansion. It took me a lot of effort to find out this information. Roughly estimated, there are about three to four million gold coins in the standing fund of the Glarna mansion, or equivalent valuables .Like jewellery, jewelry or something."
"Even so, why did you rob him?" Allen cut off a piece of bacon and chewed it in his mouth.
Ruola rolled her eyes: "Why? Because the money in his mansion is all shady things, even if it is robbed, he can only stare blankly. You said that this advantage is for nothing. How about you and Why should I do it together? Afterwards, I will share 30% with you. If you don’t do it, then I will find other people to cooperate.”
"Sister, do you need to rob? Are you short of money?" Allen didn't believe that the earl's sister would be short of money enough to rob.
"Do you think that the maintenance cost of Deep Sea Linji will be less? Soldiers, equipment, and war horses don't cost money! Although my brother allocates military expenses every year, I really don't have much money on hand. Besides, I can attack The money-grubbing old guy, Lower Graal, is not bad either, not to mention it's very exciting!"
Allen finished the rest of the bacon, wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "So, when will we act?"
Ruola said excitedly, "You agreed?"
"Why not? Anyway, you won't lose money if you follow Miss Ruola, right?"
"For you have vision." Ruola said with a smile: "Tonight, I will invite him to White Castle. At that time, I will use the excuse of taking a bath to drag him for a while, and we will take this opportunity to take advantage of his mansion It was looted. His money is hidden in the cellar, and I have already figured out where it is. This time, I want Grall to bleed some blood."
The matter was settled.
In the evening, in a utility room of his mansion, Graal dragged a shelf to cover the entrance to the cellar. Today, Charlie really ordered someone to bring over the remaining nine boxes full of magic crystals. Now thousands of boiling blood magic crystals are hiding in the secret vault of Graal. These ten boxes are worth millions of gold coins,
It is already considered a considerable fortune.
After all, in the imperial capital Olisga, one hundred thousand gold coins is enough for a wealthy family to live in luxury for a year.
Of course, Graal would not sell the magic crystal. Although in the market, due to the relationship of output, magic crystal can also be used as hard currency. But it can be used in a wider range, such as a team of killers assigned with magic crystals, when needed, they can explode with power that surprises the opponent, and so on.
Graal smiled slightly, one hundred blood boiling magic crystals whose origin is difficult to find out, but they can do many things.
He left the utility room with satisfaction, and returned to the study before his butt was hot, when his nephew Abel came. Abel pushed open the door and immediately said, "Uncle Graal, so you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time."
Abel was all smiles today, with joy at the corners of his brows, sweeping away yesterday's decadence. Graal couldn't help wondering: "Why are you so happy today?"
"I'm staying with Miss Ruola in the afternoon, can you be unhappy?"
"Rola? That's strange." Graal said with a dry smile, "Then did you take the opportunity to express your feelings?"
Abel shook his head and said, "Miss Ruola is talking to me about serious matters. After all, we are going to be stationed in the Bauhinia Territory, which is adjacent to Daniel's territory. We must be fully prepared. However, to be able to stay so close to her for a long time In the afternoon, I am quite content."
"That's enough, unambitious guy!" Graal said, rolling his eyes up.
"By the way, Uncle. Miss Ruola would like to invite you over after dinner. There are some things I need to discuss with you." Abel patted his head and said, he almost forgot the serious matter.
Graal frowned and said, "What do you want to discuss with me?"
"She said that you are the real manager of the Bauhinia Collar. Of course, there are many things that need your consent before they can be carried out."
Graal was taken aback: "She really said that."
"Yes, uncle. Although Miss Ruola didn't say it clearly, I can tell from her tone that she still respects you." Abel added embellishments: "She also said that when she was a child, Graal Uncle is the best for her."
Graal laughed, feeling as sweet as if he had eaten honey: "This Ruola is a nice little guy. I think I hugged her back when she was still very young. It's embarrassing She still remembers, okay, I will finish dinner later, will you come with me?"
"Okay, then I'll let the kitchen prepare dinner."
Graal snorted, but laughed: "You impatient little guy."
Abel laughed and went on.
After dinner, a carriage drove Graal and Abel to White Castle. The two came to the small building where Ruo La lived since childhood, they were invited to the hall by the maid, and after serving black tea, Ruo La walked out and said sorry to the two: "Uncle Graal, you came a bit early. You see, I just wanted to take a bath. How about you drink tea first?"
Seeing that Ruola was only wearing the thin pajamas that are usually hard to see, Abel could only feel a flame burning in his chest. He couldn't help but said before Graal: "Of course, we'll just wait here. Right, uncle."
Ruola looked at Graal apologetically again, and Graal could only nod helplessly. After Ruola left, he glanced at Abel and said, "You are really getting more and more impolite."
Abel smiled and did not refute. After a while, the sound of water was heard upstairs, and Abel couldn't help but imagine Ruo La's moving appearance in the bath.
In the bathroom on the second floor of the small building, water was splashing in the bathtub, and a maid flicked a towel in the water from time to time, and the sound sounded almost as if Ruola was taking a bath. As for Ruola, she had already changed into light clothes and got out of the window, falling to the ground without a sound. After a while, she had already left White Castle. At this time, it was completely dark, and when she got into a side alley near the White Castle, she coughed lightly twice.
A figure appeared from behind the lamp post, and Allen nodded to her.
"Let's go." Ruola said with a smile, "We have about forty minutes."
"It takes a long time for you to take a bath."
"I can go longer, this is a lady's patent."
It took ten minutes for the two to arrive outside Graal's mansion. There are several guards patrolling the mansion. It is worth noting that there is a guard on the roof of the mansion. His perspective covers the large open space in front of the gate. Allen gestured for Ruola to follow him. The two walked around the mansion and came to the rear. Ruola followed Allen, which was quite interesting. These guards are only five or six-level fighters, and they can be used as a prestige. As far as the effect is concerned, it is very limited, at least it will not trouble Alan and Ruola.
The two climbed in from the wall behind the mansion, and flashed to the corner of the main building of the mansion like a wisp of smoke, forming a dead angle with the guards on the roof. Allen pulled out the dagger at his waist, gently pried a closed window above his head, and the window opened. Ruola gave him a thumbs up, Allen smiled, and he went into the window. After landing a roll, it silently stuck to the wall.
Ruola poked her head out of the window, and Allen gave her a safe gesture, and she turned over and walked in, closing the window at the same time, which was considered careful.
When they came to the mansion, Ruola knew the way like an old horse, and led Alan to sneak all the way. On the way, if you encounter three or five servants, they will be avoided first by the two of them with light and agile movements. The two shuttled through the mansion like ghosts, until Ruola stopped in front of a utility room, and Allen looked at her with some doubts. Ruola used two copper wires to unlock the door lock of the utility room, slipped in with Allen, and closed the door again.
The two leaned against the door and looked at each other. There were many things piled up in the utility room, and the space was narrow. The two were almost stuck together. Allen could smell the faint fragrance wafting from Ruo La, and at this moment Ruo La said: "Don't worry, Graal hid everything here, I can find out clearly."
After all, he led Allen through the sundries and came to a shelf. She moved the shelf away, and behind her was a wall. Ruo stretched his hand and patted the wall, and there was a muffled sound from the wall. She was not in a hurry, she patted it inch by inch, and finally when her palm fell on the lower left corner, there was a hollow sound. Ruola smiled: "I found it."
She pressed down hard, and a brick immediately sank into the wall, and there was a soft sound of gears turning in the wall. Ruo pulled back, and a moment later, a square gap opened where she was standing just now, and there was a dark passage below. With all his eyesight, Allen could only see the first three or so stairs clearly. This passage extends downward, and Ruola shows a smug smile: "Look, I know I've found the right place. Come with me, time is running out."
She floated down, using the origin force, and the light blue source force flame came out through the body, but it acted as a light. The passage is not long and will soon come to an end. At the end is a bronze door with iron chains and a steel lock. Ruola squatted down, inserted the steel wire into the keyhole, and gently pushed the lock bead. A moment later, there was a light "da" sound from the lock, and the copper lock was opened. Ruo La took the copper lock and put it on the ground, then took off the iron chain, and then he had to open the door and enter.
The door opened a crack, and at this moment, Allen seemed to smell a fishy wind.
His hair stood on end, it was a dangerous feeling. At this time, Ruola had already pushed the door open, and he said softly, "Be careful."
A few faint red fluorescent lights lit up in the door, and then a gust of wind rushed towards Ruo La. In the flames of source power coming out of Ruo La's body, a ferocious head suddenly appeared. It opened its mouth a bit like a wolf's head, and spit out a needle-like slender tongue from it, and pointed at Ruo Ruo very quickly. Pull the chest.
Allen stretched out his hand to drag Ruo La back, and at the same time the dagger met him. The devil's salute didn't activate the awakening posture, so he cut at the thin tongue. The thin tongue flew down in response to the knife, splashing out a cloud of dark red blood. The wolf retreated in pain, Alan let go of Ruola, and stuck the dagger up. There was an orange arc flashing in the dark cellar. After a while, Allen stepped back, nodded and said, "It's safe."
They found the candlestick on the wall by the door, and there were still unlit candles on the desk. Alan popped out a flame with his fingers and lit all the candlesticks, so the secret vault of Graal appeared in front of them. in the eyes. There was a dead beast lying on the ground. This wolf beast should be a guard raised by Graalmon. He was somewhat well-arranged, this kind of domesticated beast should be able to recognize his smell. Once you smell something other than Graal, you will be attacked when the copper door is opened.
Allen checked its severed tongue, and there was a sharp object at the end of the tongue that looked like a bee sting, with a hollow in between. It can be imagined that once nailed into the prey, the blood will be sucked away by it. This is actually a blood-sucking beast.
But now, its head and body are separated. The incision was scorched black, which was the masterpiece of Alan's flashing flame.
Ruola glanced at the beast corpse, especially when she saw the incision of the corpse, she was thoughtful. She quickly looked away, and her eyes fell on the boxes piled up against the wall in the cellar. Some of the boxes were half-opened, revealing the jumbled piles of jewels inside. Ruola laughed and said, "Look, Uncle Graal is richer than I thought."
Allen was also secretly surprised. If the boxes stacked here were full of gold coins or jewelry, then they would not only have a few million gold coins, but tens of millions. Even if Graal was a viscount, it would take tens of millions of gold coins to accumulate such wealth. The important thing is that according to Ruola, these are dirty money. Otherwise, Graal wouldn't have been so careful and made a cellar under the mansion.
"But, with so many things, do you think the two of us can move them here?"
"Of course we can't move it, so we just take the gold coupons." Ruo La said with a blink of an eye.
The Balegon Empire has established Imperial Banks in various places. Depositors can put gold coins in the bank to exchange for gold savings coupons of the same amount for carrying. Ruola did what she said, and immediately searched through the box and chest to find it. Allen shook his head. If Graal hadn't put the coupons here, the two of them would have had their work in vain.
"Help me find it, why are you staring blankly?" Ruola said.
"Yes, Miss." Allen casually opened a suitcase closest to him. When the suitcase was opened, his eyes were filled with blood-red crystals.
Ruola didn't intend to look at him, and suddenly lost her voice: "The Boiling Blood Demon Crystal? Graal still has this?"
Looking at Ruola's appearance, she was very surprised that there was such a thing as the Boiling Blood Magic Crystal in Graal's collection. r1058
