Chapter 89: 7th instance: “Who did you meet before?” (part 2 of 4)

Gu Wuji nodded, “So that’s what happened.” It looks like, neither Lu Yuanzhou nor Brian had entered that space at all, and the person, who had been able to go in, was him alone.

When he was going to stand up, Brian, who was next to him, swiftly step forward to support him. This attitude made Lu Yuanzhou fall into a moment of silence.

Gu Wuji looked around, and realized that the interior of this library was already in ruins now. The rest of the books had even been entirely reduced to waste, the only book that survived the disaster is the that notebook on his chest. Gu Wuji couldn’t help but feel glad for his previous decision…… In the matter of the female ghost, she was still with him at this time, but the other party seemed to have received some sort of fright, and is now in an unconscious state. Her feeling of fear was still constantly being transmitted to Gu Wuji.

“I feel a bit bad for her this time. I will definitely help her find a companion when the opportunity arrives.”

Gu Wuji sat aside on the ground at once, and leafed through the notebook in his hand. It won’t be too long before the banquet starts, reading it outside would very easily get them into trouble as well. So, he might as well read it in this library, which is already a much safer option.

Lu Yuanzhou’s expression couldn’t refrain from turning a bit unpleasant. Although that female ghost he possesses hadn’t been dispersed and lost, but it still lost a large part of it’s power because of that dark mist, and can no longer be called upon in this time’s instance.

He didn’t expect this instance to actually be so terrible. However, they had fortunately gained a lot of information as a result as well, in addition to a certain understanding of that unknown existence. He will certainly still be able to leave this instance alive even if he didn’t have the power of that female ghost.

Without a doubt, the person, who made Lu Yuanzhou the most firm in his belief, was still Gu Wuji, who was next to him.

“Brian, I would like to ask, what really is this so-called ceremony?” Gu Wuji asked Brian, who was next to him, while still flipping through the notebook.

The things written down on this notebook were rather disorganized, and still lacks a lot of information. If they look into this on their own, it might take quite a lot of time, in addition to still having the need to go explore the castle according to the writings in the notes……

Under normal circumstances, players would have to race against time before the dark mist spreads over, get the notes pertaining to the ceremony in this library, then still need to look into all kinds of issues on the book. By the time everything has been looked into, they would have absolutely gone cold. So, they can only take a chance to investigate one or two of them.

However, this kind of thing doesn’t apply to Gu Wuji at all. After all, there is a living NPC next to him, who knows many secrets he can ask, the other party even behaves very much like a lackey to him.

An average person might still have some apprehensions towards this kind of NPC, fearing that asking too much may lead to something. But Gu Wuji has already more or less regarded Brian as his own person, which is why he could ask him whatever he wants to.

Brian felt a bit puzzled deep inside. How could this powerful individual still not know about the ceremony? But he soon after felt that, this must be for the purpose of hiding his identity from others. He definitely needs to cooperate. Otherwise, the other will definitely regard it as having been discovered him. What’s to be done if he offends the other party!

“This is already a matter from a very long time ago. I’m not very clear about this either. But since the time of my consciousness, I knew that this is a forbidden area. Only when the ceremony is held, can other people enter here.” Brian imparted, with a somewhat remorseful expression. Realizing that he had simply jumped into a fire pit.

Gu Wuji nodded. It looks like, all the vampires and the other guests invited in this castle were all well aware of this. Only the ordinary living people in the village outside were completely ignorant about it.

But…… are those ordinary living people, really ordinary?

“Moreover, what is being sealed in this castle, is an extremely terrifying existence. If it is released, not only this area, but even the entire country will be affected. For this reason, the ceremony needs to be held from time to time, to continue suppressing that terrifying existence.”

A look of dread appeared on Brian’s face, as he continued: “I’ve never ever taken this seriously, and even thought that they had merely exaggerated things. But now it seems, that things had truly gotten to this critical extent already….. The former lord was rumored to have mysteriously died all of a sudden.”

Gu Wuji said: “Will the village outside also be a part of the forbidden area every now and then? What are truly the roles of the people living there?”

After all, for those vampires to actually coexist peacefully with the humans, was quite obviously a very bizarre matter, in any case.

Brian had an obvious disdainful look on his face. He totally didn’t see Gu Wuji, who is in front of him, as a human, nor did he have the slightest fear towards Lu Yuanzhou, this pretty boy. That attitude was just like talking about some inferior creatures.

“Those people are naturally just a part of the seal. Although no one know why, but the existence of living people can make this seal more stable. Therefore, there are several dozens of human villages in the vicinity of this castle, there’s also a ban that prohibit us from touching the people in the village.” Brian said: “But every time the seal comes loose, the power of that existence will leak out…… In essence, changes had already broken out in the surrounding area. Some humans will even be affected and turn into monsters, losing their sanity.”

After hearing this, Gu Wuji understood at once. Why do strange things happen in the village outside every few decades? It seems that it’s all because of this thing sealed in this castle.

That werewolf girl, should have most likely been just an ordinary person before as well, but had undergone such a change under the influence of the power…… People like this in the village were presumably not few in numbers, which led to the strange happenings from time to time.
