Chapter 180 Chapter 136 Another Me

The meeting lasted about half an hour.

In such a formal occasion, Pomo really admired Puyis and Ni Qingjiang for being able to talk for so long.

But fortunately, Puyis was by his side, so he was able to handle it with ease, and was even able to obtain the information he needed from Ni Qingjiang, this "old hand".

"My friend Es and I really hit it off right away. It's fate that we meet now."

Ni Qingjiang stood up to see the two people off. As the head of the Ni family, he didn't need to be so polite.

Maybe he really had high hopes for the two young people, or maybe he was really a friendly person, at least on the surface their relationship seemed pretty good.

"Finally, I wish you a happy birthday, Mr. Ni. My friends and I have prepared gifts for you and your son and daughter. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to meet you both?"

"Thank you for still thinking of me. I thank you on behalf of my son and daughter. Unfortunately, my son is not at home, and my daughter went out last night for some business. She will be back in two days for her birthday party. I accept the gift on their behalf."

When talking about his son, Ni Qingjiang's tone was not as proud and proud as other fathers. He just mentioned it lightly. As for his daughter, it seemed as if he was just explaining it, and there was no emotion in it.

Puys didn't ask any more questions. "Excuse me. Pomo and I will leave now."

Ni Qingjiang smiled deeply, but it was somewhat distorted. "Have fun at Ni's house these few days and enjoy these rare leisure days."

Bo Mo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that what Ni Qingjiang said was meaningful.

After walking out of the reception room, Pomo finally felt relieved.

"I don't know why, but I always feel a sense of guilt when I look at Patriarch Ni..."

The young man scratched his head in embarrassment, he felt that this description was inexplicable.

"It's normal for you."

Puis was stating the facts and Pomeranian chuckled.

"I'm not good at this kind of thing!"

After handing the promised gift to the waiter and letting them take it away, there didn't seem to be any progress on the things I cared about.

It’s just that Mr. Ni said that his daughter left last night for something...It’s hard not to think of the screams last night.

Could it be... related to last night's 'invasion' incident?

But we cannot rule out the possibility that this is an excuse used by the Ni family to cover up something.

Everything that has not been seen is treated as if it does not exist. He did not come back on his father's most important birthday, and there is no reasonable reason. It is hard not to doubt the authenticity of the news that his son is away.

"The birthday party is still two days away. Since we know from Ni Lan that there is something fishy about the party, we can't wait until that day to make plans."

What Puis said was also what Pomeranian was thinking.

Just waiting like this would only make him anxious, and Pomo wanted to do something practical.

"Tonight, then."

Risks often go hand in hand with opportunities. If you are lucky, you might even meet... the daughter of Patriarch Ni.

——

Night fell again, and except for the guests who had just arrived at the Ni family today, the other guests gave up the idea of ​​going out to explore.

But it does not include Puisi and Pomo, two young men who are "ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth".

It is always better to be proactive than to wait passively.

Late at night, Puis launched a reconnaissance area in Ni's house for the first time, covering most of the main castle at a distance of hundreds of meters.

But what the young man is most concerned about is whether there are other areas under the main castle. This is the most critical thing.

The consciousness wanders in the [Absolute Hell], memorizing the route of the entire castle.

Just as Puis guessed, there is a hidden path under the castle, with a strong aura of supernatural powers, as if something is brewing.

But he couldn't see anything further inside, and Puis realized that there was something there that could affect supernatural powers.

This trip is very dangerous, but I have to go.

"Did you find it?"

"Well, you can go down from the prayer room."

The two men slipped out through the window. Puis already knew how to get out, so he switched the rules of the domain back to a safer and more reliable defense.

Although it is a prayer room, it can also be called a church. The huge statue of the angel Michaela is in the center to show the grace of the God of Light.

The two of them also opened the stained glass window next to them and slipped in. Because light is the most important belief of the Church of Light, all the churches of light are brightly lit, and the light will never be extinguished except in extreme circumstances.

"Are you sure there's no one around?"

"No, even if there are surveillance cameras, they can't find us. Let's go."

So the two of them walked in openly.

"As expected of the Ni family, the church is so luxurious——"

Although its area is not as large as the Cathedral of the Lord of Light in the Emerald Building, it is just as luxurious.

They had also seen relatively "shabby" ones, for example, when they were in the Deep South China Sea Reef Islands, the church where Father Ascle was located did not even have an angel statue of Michaela, only the most basic symbols of the Church of Light.

"Where can I get down from here?"

"There's something like a typesetting behind the angel statue. The screw on the lower left corner can be pressed down."

It was easy for Puys to find these hidden buttons.

However, it seemed that no one had pressed this button for a long time. The waiter wiped it clean without leaving any mark.

Pomo pressed the screw through his sleeve to make sure that no clues that might be discovered were left. After a few clicks, the wooden floor behind him gradually became transparent.

"This...is this a portal?"

It emitted a light blue light, and was exactly the same as the portal the two of them passed through when they arrived at the Ni family.

But...there is actually a direct passage going down behind this.

Pu Yisi pulled Pomo, "That's not right, don't come close."

Even if a normal person discovered the secret passage, they would not know like Puis that there is actually a normal passage leading down behind it. This portal is most likely a trap.

Thinking of this, Puis pressed the screw button again, and the portal disappeared, revealing the plain wooden stairs behind it.

"They actually used inertial thinking. If you step into it, it will be dangerous."

But they would go to such great lengths to hide it, which means that the thing underneath must be very important.

"Let's go, we should be able to recover once we get inside."

Puis stepped in first, and the two of them disappeared into the tunnel. The passage behind them was closed, just like before.

But even Puis didn't notice that the door of the prayer room quietly opened, and a blue-haired girl stood in the middle.

She took a deep breath and waited one step outside the detectable range of Puyis domain. Making sure she would not be discovered, she walked behind the angel statue and pressed the button.

——

On both sides of the road are priceless night pearls. Even the hidden tunnels are permeated with the belief in light. The darkness has nowhere to hide and is illuminated by light from all directions.

But some people came in and artificially created dark shadows.

"So beautiful... Is that something you can say?"

The Ni family’s main focus is on high-profile luxury, but the aesthetics are not old-fashioned and are particularly eye-catching.

There was nothing to refute. Puis nodded and said, "It is indeed beautiful, but look at the dust on this night pearl. It means that no one has walked here for a very long time."

Bo Mo reached out and gently touched the night pearl, and dust covered his fingers.

"Really? I feel like the waiters don't know there is such a place."

This is the first time I have seen such a dirty place since I came to the Ni family. This should indeed be the hidden part of the Ni family.

The road was very long. According to Puyis's calculations, everyone above should have left the main fortress of Nijia Manor and arrived at the back mountain.

That is, a place with hot springs.

After finally reaching the end, there was actually a spiral staircase extending upwards.

"It looks like there is a way to get in from the back of this mountain."

Puisi originally thought that he would continue going down because the unknown area that isolated the supernatural powers was still below.

It could also be a meaningless path and they are in the wrong place.

"Whatever the case, let's go up and take a look first."

Bomo adheres to the philosophy of 'since we are already here'. If you don't reach the end, how do you know if you are walking in the right direction?

So the two of them began to climb the spiral staircase that seemed to have no end.

After reaching the middle, there seemed to be no difference between looking down and looking up. If it weren't for gravity, I might not even know which direction I was going.

"How high have we climbed? Why does it feel like there are still so many levels?"

Fortunately, Puys's territory has come to an end.

"We're almost there, let's go."

Finally, the two reached the top floor, and a corridor that was no different from the one they had seen before appeared again.

"Are we in a mysterious situation?"

Pomo was afraid that after walking down the corridor he would see a spiral staircase that was so high that the top was invisible.

Puis frowned, his domain was limited and he couldn't see the end.

"I'm going to change the rules of the domain, Amo, you be on your guard."

"good!"

Is it an illusion? Or is it a trap to deal with foreign invasion?

It turned into the reconnaissance area again, but Puis was completely stunned.

"Es? Es?"

Pomeranian saw Puys's obvious shock and became a little anxious.

"Es! What on earth did you see?!"

What did Puys see?

Behind him was a spiral staircase that was thirty or forty stories high. A blue-haired girl seemed to know that she had been discovered and had a terrified expression on her face.

In front of me was a corridor that was over a hundred meters long, but the end was not another spiral staircase, but a heavy door.

Behind that heavy door is a statue that depicts the God of Light, a rebellious deity.

The statue has its eyes tightly closed, and sticky liquid like tears of blood keeps flowing out of it. It opens its arms downwards, as if welcoming someone and wanting to embrace him in its arms.

There was also an altar that had nothing to do with light, with strange runes extending from the center, climbing up the walls, and covering the entire surface of the room.

At the same time, he was also entangled with the thin young man under him.

"...A...Alan?"
