“I’m not a little girl!”

Susan was a little unhappy with the title Qin Lun had imposed on her, but Qin Lun didn’t have time to pay attention to the little emotions of this temporary female companion. He pushed open a double-leaf door again and brought Susan in.

Looking at this spacious study room, Qin Lun felt that he would soon gain something.

The reason for that was because the entire Wilson Manor’s current scenery was basically dilapidated and decayed, as if it had been left unattended for hundreds of years. It was completely like an ancient ruin. However, this study room was clean and tidy, just like how it was hundreds of years ago when its owner was still alive.

The study in front of him was in the shape of a circular hall, surrounded by tall bookshelves that surrounded them like city walls. It looked like a circular Roman arena. Moreover, it had more than one floor, belonging to the jump-layer structure. There was a large chandelier hanging on the dome, which was at least ten meters high from the ground.

There was a small wooden spiral staircase to the left of the study, leading to the bookshelf corridor on the upper two floors. Although this study was not the largest library Qin Lun had ever seen, it was definitely the most elegant library of art.

If there was a secret room in Wilson Manor, then it was very likely that it was here.

“Follow me closely, there might be a trap here!” Qin Lun instructed Susan indifferently and began to observe the bookshelves around him.

Qin Lun’s left eye flickered with the Yin Yang Fish pattern. After looking at it for a while, he knew that he had found the right place. Originally, with his gaze, it was easy to see through the hidden secret room, but this study seemed to be enveloped by some sort of power. He was actually unable to see through any row of bookshelves.

However, Qin Lun was not disappointed. This proved that his thoughts were correct.

Unable to see through with his pupils, Qin Lun could only use the simplest method, one shelf at a time. However, he quickly grew tired of it. Perhaps Qin Lun had the patience, but it was definitely not him.

“Susan, come and help me. Perhaps your luck is better!” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he smiled and said to the woman.

“Of course!” The girl, who had always felt that she could not help, was in high spirits. If it weren’t for the two heavy chains in her hands, she would be even happier. “Damn it, this thing is too heavy. I think we should find a tool to get it off first.”

Susan uncomfortably tugged at the iron collar on her neck, put the chain on the ground temporarily, and inspected the bookshelves around her. Anyway, you don’t have to go too far now, and you don’t have to worry about tripping.

“Should I pay attention to something?” Susan touched the bookshelf and turned around to ask.

“This study has been tidy for hundreds of years. It’s weird, but it helps us find clues. It’s hard to imagine that the owner of the manor would read so many books often, so you just have to pay attention to the less dusty places and books on the shelves. Those places move a lot, most likely to be the mechanism that opens the secret room.”

“Yes, I understand!” Susan came to a sudden realization.

The bookshelves at the bottom of the study room were quickly searched by them. It didn’t look like there was any secret room or mechanism that Qin Lun called.

“Could it be on the upper two floors?” Qin Lun frowned as he looked at the spiral stairs. He was reluctant to climb the corridors beside the bookshelves.

“Why don’t we check the desk and salon?” Susan asked, pointing at the desk and sofa in the middle of the study.

“I’ll leave it to you!” Qin Lun thought for a moment and then stepped onto the spiral staircase. In fact, he did not move the desk or sofa. He did not think that his master would set up an opening mechanism in such an obvious place.

However, he was wrong this time. The owner of Wilson Manor was not evil when he built the manor, so although he had a secret room, it was not so shameful inside. Therefore, the method of setting it up was very simple.

“Ha, I found it!” Just as Qin Lun walked through the spiral stairs to the second floor of the study, Susan let out a soft cry from below.

“Don’t touch it yet!” Qin Lun lowered his head and looked down. Seeing the woman touching under the desk, he immediately reminded her in a deep voice.

“Ah? Ah ~ ~” But his warning was too late. With the sound of a mechanism, a square black hole suddenly cracked in the ground in front of the desk. Susan cried out in alarm and fell down. Not far behind the desk, a bookshelf opened, revealing a door.

At the same time, perhaps because the secret room of the study was opened, some transparent figures appeared on the bookshelves around the circular study. Looking at their faces and attire, it was obvious that they were all servants of the manor. Qin Lun even saw Chef Melanda among them.

However, Qin Lun didn’t have time to pay attention to these ghosts at this time.

With a stretch of his right hand, a Saint Thorn flew out of his sleeve and wrapped around a chain that hadn’t completely slipped into the hole. The chains that prevented Susan from gaining her freedom had become the only life-saving straw for women.

“Get up!” Qin Lun moved quickly and pulled Susan out of the cave without waiting for it to close.

“Cough cough!” Susan’s face was purple as she coughed repeatedly on the ground. The chain that the Saint Thorn had wrapped around was the one on her neck, and it almost strangled her to death.

At this time, the ghosts that emerged from the bookshelves seemed to wake up, and their originally transparent bodies slowly solidified. Qin Lun knew that they would soon be like the two zombie maids, so that they would have the ability to attack entities.

“Let’s go!” Qin Lun picked her up with one hand and carried her on his shoulder as if nothing had happened. The Sacred Thorn in his other hand was like a long whip, sweeping away the two zombies that had pounced in front of him. He kept running into the secret room of the study that had just been opened.

Because with the opening of the bookshelf that served as the door to the secret room, he could already see a narrow corridor behind it. Although he didn’t know where to go, it was better than being surrounded by ghosts here.

Qin Lun’s shoulder rested on Susan’s lower abdomen. If it weren’t for the fact that there was nothing in her stomach now, she would have vomited.

“Iron chains, my iron” Susan was sure that she had never been so unlucky in her life. She weakly pulled back two chains. She had already seen zombies heading towards them, but she didn’t want to play a tug-of-war with them later.

The moment he stepped into the corridor of the secret room, Qin Lun turned around and looked at the floor of the study room. A trace of frustration flashed in his eyes.

Just now, when Susan was in danger, he looked down from the second floor’s corridor and discovered a huge mistake.

He hadn’t noticed that there was no carpet on the floor in this study room just now. Instead, there were only some strange paintings that resembled murals.

The study had always been neat and decorated, and it was impossible for an English aristocrat like Baron Wilson to be negligent enough to leave his study uncarpeted. On the contrary, it meant that there were traps on the ground and it was inappropriate to lay a carpet on the ground.

If he had found out earlier, the two of them would be in a much better situation now. At least, they wouldn’t have fallen into the siege of ghosts.

Since his emergence as a master, there have been many similar mistakes. Qin Lun knew what was going on. First, he didn’t have the patience and meticulousness of his original personality. Second, he didn’t have much time left to control his body, so he began to affect his consciousness.

“At least play big before you lose consciousness!” Qin Lun’s eyes revealed a hint of madness. “Soon, soon, all the elements will be gathered!”

Qin Lun’s judgment when he rushed into the secret room was correct. After they entered the corridor of the secret room, the zombie servants could only hesitate at the entrance and didn’t dare to enter. In the end, they had no choice but to howl unwillingly again and disappear into black smoke.

“Chris, those things haven’t followed. Let me down!” Seeing the ghosts behind her disappear, Susan could no longer endure the bumps on Qin Lun’s shoulders and struggled to get down.

“En, wait for you to rest for a while before you leave. Very soon, I think we can find some important clues this time.” Qin Lun looked at Susan’s pale face and smiled to comfort her.

It turned out that he was right to take Susan with him. As a storyline character related to Wilson Manor, even though the original plot and characters were completely different, there was still a force guiding her to return to her original state.

Qin Lun believed that he might have taken the place of Wilson and Luke. If the two college students hadn’t died, he believed that the person who accompanied Susan in the original plot to search for clues would at least be one of them.

“I’m much better. Let’s go!” Susan leaned against the wall and stood up. She asked curiously, “What did you use to save me? It was like a vine.”

“Are you referring to this?” Qin Lun smiled and a Saint Thorn jumped out of his sleeve. “After so many things, you should understand that this world is not that simple, and I am also part of it. This is my special ability!”

“COOL!” Susan touched the Saint Thorn in surprise and dispelled some doubts in her heart. After all, Qin Lun had saved her at least twice, even if he had a little secret.

“Oh, right, you said before that this manor has entered a lot. Why haven’t we encountered a single one yet?” Susan asked doubtfully.

“This is exactly what I’m worried about!” Qin Lun sighed without pretending. “Just like I said before, this manor possesses the illusion ability to be faked. It’s very likely that everyone who comes in in front of me will be separated. The environment may be the same, but the manor may have become countless.”

“Then what should we do?” Susan was shocked, she never thought so much, “Does that mean we’ll never get out!”

“No, it’s the same thing I said.” Qin Lun smiled faintly and said confidently, “Even though there are countless manors, we only need to find out the secrets of this place to solve the illusion. Because there is only one truth that caused it to become the present. The past, present, and future of these countless manors … the same scene that has been happening all along!”

“Oh!” ‘”Chris, you’re the smartest person I’ve ever met” Susan calmed down, her eyes glittering with admiration. “Really, I don’t feel that you’re exaggerating at all!”

That’s the one you haven’t seen before, including the one in my body! Qin Lun glanced at her, neither refuting nor admitting it.

“We’re here!” As the two of them spoke, the corridor had already reached its end.

Qin Lun carefully pushed open the door at the end of the corridor. Then, he was slightly stunned. He discovered that there was another very familiar person standing opposite him.
