Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Chapter 225: An unexpected surprise

After Leon left, Ethan and Oliver did not leave immediately, but entered the secret door.

Walking diagonally downward for a short distance, you will find a small, square room.

The area is not large, about ten square meters.

There was a white carpet on the floor, which was covered with dust. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.

There are some weapons placed in the corner, engraved with different names, like trophies.

There is a long table and a bench in the middle.

The table is covered with various bottles and jars, filled with green liquid and soaked with various eyeballs.

Both human and animal.

The atmosphere is a little weird.

The most obvious thing on the table is a five centimeter thick book placed in the center, or a notebook is more appropriate, since there is no book cover after all.

There is also a small copper clip placed next to the notebook, and I don't know what it is used for.

After Ethan looked around, he smiled and said, "You are right not to come in here out of curiosity."

With that said, he summoned the Sword of Oath from the shadow.

Use your sword to pick up the edge of the carpet and slowly roll it inwards.

Oliver on the side was confused at first about why Ethan rolled up the carpet, but he soon discovered a dense cluster of silver needles standing on the ground, two or three centimeters above the ground, with black light emitting from the tips of the needles.

It suddenly dawned on me: there were poisonous needles hidden on the ground.

But if this needle is a bit short, it may not be able to penetrate into the foot.

Just as Oliver was wondering how the needle could hurt, Ethan tapped an inconspicuous floor tile with his sword.

Suddenly, there was a "click" sound, and the silver needle on the ground instantly grew an inch taller.

Oliver's teeth hurt when he saw it: "Isn't this killer afraid that he will forget and step on it himself?"

Ethan didn't reply. He used his sword to cut off the silver needles on the ground like leeks. Then he came to the desk and opened the notebook on the table with his sword.

Suddenly a line of strange words came into view: "When you see this line, it means you are dead! Bastard!"

Ethan's pupils dilated instantly.

At the same time, a sharp sword appeared silently, piercing the back of his head and piercing through his forehead.

Oliver was so shocked by this scene that he backed away.

Cold sweat gushed out from his forehead like spring water.

Because in his eyes, a monster with eight eyes and a dark body suddenly appeared behind Ethan the moment he opened the book.

Then without saying a word, he stabbed Ethan's head with a long sword glowing with white light.

All this happens in the blink of an eye.

The great sword master was killed without any reaction at all.

It’s over! It's all over!

Oliver's only thought at this time was to run.

And he did the same thing after a brief period of unconsciousness.

But as soon as he turned around, he found that his arm was being held tightly.

Without thinking much, Oliver immediately took out the dagger from his waist with his other hand, turned around and slashed, trying to escape.

But there was a "ding".

Halfway through the journey, the dagger was held in mid-air by three fingers.

"Oliver, don't get excited!"

Only then did Oliver calm down and take another look.

Hey, where was that eight-eyed monster just now?

Where is the person who blocked his dagger?

Your Majesty the Great Sword Master is also intact!

Could it be that it was just a hallucination?

"Your Majesty the Great Sword Master, just now..."

Oliver didn't know what to say.

Ethan smiled, he knew exactly what Oliver wanted to say, but he was not in the mood to explain.

The line of writing just now is actually nothing special, but there is something wrong with this notebook.

According to Kyle, the notebook was cursed.

If you turn the first page, the curse will be triggered.

A mental attack that can directly cause a person to have a nervous breakdown and become a madman.

Ethan had actually been tricked just now.

But fortunately, with Kyle, the problem was solved with one sword.

Ethan looked at the copper clip on the table at this time and immediately understood its purpose. It was probably used to hold the first page of paper.

And this book is probably also a back-up set by the killer.

"It's very interesting that a killer can actually use magic traps!"

Ethan became more interested in the book.

Considering that there might still be danger, he asked Oliver to retreat a little further, and then carefully picked up a few more pages with his sword.

There was no danger this time, but the words in the book didn't seem to be from this era, and Ethan couldn't understand them either.

At this time, a black and white square scarf in Ethan's breast pocket jumped out on its own.

The square scarf spun a few times in mid-air and transformed into the appearance of a little girl.

Oliver on the side was dumbfounded.

What is going on? Why did a little girl suddenly appear?

Is it another hallucination?

Oliver rubbed his eyes hard to make sure it was really a little girl.

Suddenly his mind began to feel a little unable to think.

The little girl was of course Catherine. When she saw those words, she ran out and went to get the books on the table without saying a word.

Ethan was startled and quickly hugged her back.

"You're crazy! You're in danger!"

Catherine looked indifferent: "This is just a notebook that curses the mage. There is nothing to be afraid of."

Ethan suddenly remembered Catherine's diplomatic talent.

"You can understand, right?"

"Of course!" Catherine broke away from Ethan's hand, picked up the notebook on the table and flipped through it casually.

"This is an ancient magical text, which seems to be a note left by a cursed wizard named Marlet, which records various cursed magics he created.

Looking at the date, he should be a person from more than 700 years ago.

However, I don’t know why this note is here, maybe...”

Before Catherine finished speaking, there were two "ding-dong" sounds, and two playing cards fell from the book to the ground.

"Hey!"

Catherine saw something fall out and shouted curiously.

Then she picked them up, took a quick look, and handed them to Ethan because she couldn't see what they were.

"It seems to be two copper playing cards."

The moment Ethan took it, a familiar feeling came over him.

This feeling was just like the first time he touched the Force Slate, and he could hear his heartbeat inside.

"Force Card? "

Ethan hurriedly took a closer look at the two bronze plates.

There were indeed patterns on them.

One of them showed a crouching wolf with black and white fur, a disdainful smile on the corner of its mouth, and a V-shaped white hair on its chest, which was particularly eye-catching.

The other showed a blue gorilla with its mouth wide open, pounding its chest.

Ethan couldn't help but smile.

I've made a fortune.

This time I've really made a fortune.

This is the Force card!

The beginning of the extraordinary.

The most important trump card of each family.

Ethan hurriedly put away the two bronze plates, looked around again, and made sure there were no other good things, and then left with Oliver.

As soon as he returned to Sophia, he took out the notebook and the bronze plate and put them on the table without waiting for Sophia to ask about the situation.

"Look, what is this!"

Sophia looked at the bronze plate on the table with a puzzled look, and her eyes widened immediately.

"Force card?"
