This knight is too perfect

Chapter 95 The Hunt Begins [Two in One]

"Rhine, I feel like something is wrong here."

As soon as you enter the Red Grape Manor.

Enrico immediately noticed something strange here.

Because this place is more like a large amusement park than a manor.

There are not only various strange facilities inside.

It is also specially equipped with a large number of maids and attendants for companionship.

Although everyone who comes here is required to wear an 'animal mask'.

But just from the way these people are dressed, one can see the difference between guests and servants.

Because guests like Enrico and Rhine wore different badges corresponding to their respective identities and assets.

Since he was only the heir to the viscount, Enrico was only allocated a bronze badge.

Similarly, as Enrico's official bodyguard, Rhine was assigned a black iron badge.

As for the male servants and maids who had received them before.

They all wore white badges.

And on this badge, there is a special number marked.

In addition, the guests who come here all wear animal masks.

Although there is a mask to cover the face.

But sometimes when people put on a mask, it is equivalent to taking off the mask they wear in daily life.

Therefore, just passing by the hall, Enrico was shocked by the luxurious scene inside.

I saw many guests in the hall ignoring the gazes of people around them and just started playing in the hall.

This is undoubtedly a very unorthodox thing for the Principality of Morton, which has relatively conservative ideas.

In addition, Enrico also felt that since entering this manor.

It was as if something was guiding the desires in his heart to the point that he was almost unable to control himself.

Fortunately, Enrico's abnormality did not last long.

Because as long as he stood next to Rhine, that special "fluctuation of desire" would ease.

Although Enrico is not an extraordinary person, he still has some knowledge.

He was very clear about his changes, and they were definitely not groundless.

As for Enrico's question, Rhine already knew the reason.

While he continued to let the maid in front lead the way, he lowered his head and said to Enrico: "Look less, listen less, and follow me closely."

Hearing this, Enrico immediately followed suit and lowered his head without looking at anyone or anything around him.

Soon, the two were taken to an exclusive room by the manor servants.

As soon as he entered the room, Rhine waved to the two maids.

The two of them immediately understood and left the room and stood at the door.

After the two left, Rhine took out a special candle, lit it and placed it on the table in the room.

When the candlelight illuminated the room, Enrico felt inexplicably relieved.

"Rhine, what do you mean?"

"Holy fire candles from the church."

"Church candles?"

Seeing Enrico's puzzled expression, Rhine explained: "Enrico, the situation here is more complicated than I thought, because I didn't expect Remi to be so bold as to use forbidden knowledge to subtly change the people who come here."

"Have you noticed the statues and murals along the way?"

Enrico nodded.

You have to know that when entering the Red Grape Manor, they need to first pass through a gorgeous and long corridor.

The corridors are not only covered with various artistic murals.

There is a statue placed at regular intervals on both sides.

At first Enrico thought that this was a luxurious decoration deliberately created by the owner of the Red Grape Manor to show off his wealth and status.

But when he heard what Rhine said now, he reacted immediately.

"You mean those murals and statues are extraordinary objects that contain forbidden knowledge?"

"Ah."

After receiving Rhine's affirmative answer, Enrico's face turned very ugly.

Even if he had not entered the extraordinary realm, Enrico was well aware of the horror of forbidden knowledge and the impact it could have on people.

Looking at the silent Enrico, Rhine expressed his own judgment: "Those murals and statues probably only contain some forbidden knowledge. Otherwise, you would not be able to recover so quickly."

"And if it's just a brief exposure, the forbidden knowledge won't immediately distort a person's body and soul."

"But if they are exposed to these things for a long time and have not been 'purified', they will soon become slaves to this forbidden knowledge and develop an unprecedented worship for a certain existence."

"Enrico, I'm not sure how many of the guests here have had their cognition subtly changed, but I know that what Remi wants is definitely more exaggerated than we thought."

"He not only wants to inherit the title of Count Randy, he wants to completely control the entire Emerald Territory, so that there will be no other voices here except his."

Rhine's words were very calm, but the information contained in them made Enrico feel cold all over.

Because he had heard Remi's huge ambition from Rhine's words.

Thinking of this, Enrico said in a low voice: "Using forbidden knowledge to control other nobles, once this news is released, even if Randy comes forward in person, Remi will definitely die."

"Because he has touched upon the taboos of all nobles."

"And I believe that all the nobles who came here must have been personally selected by Remi."

"Otherwise, there would be no way that there wouldn't be any rumors leaking out from the outside world."

"Yeah, I think so too."

Rhine took over Enrico's words and stood up and walked to the window.

From this position, they could vaguely see the hall below and the scene of demons dancing in chaos there.

"I just observed that most of the nobles who came here wore bronze and silver badges, which means that they basically only recharged 10,000 to 100,000 Morton gold coins here."

"This is certainly a lot of money, but for the nobles of Adrian who were given it, this amount of money is not a big deal at all."

"Combining my judgment of these people, not all of them are nobles. Many of them are businessmen or even Beyonders with no background."

"Remi brought together so many people from different professions and walks of life. It's definitely not just about making money."

"He must have some deeper purpose."

"But these have nothing to do with us. We only need to confirm two things now. One is to make sure that Remi is in the manor today, and the other is to pass this news to the church paladins outside. That's all."

Hearing this, Enrico asked curiously, "Is it possible that Remi won't come today?"

Rhine shook his head and said, "No, Remi will definitely come, because of Her Highness Lilisha's matter, he needs to stabilize the emotions of his subordinates and find a way to prove his innocence."

"And Remi will never miss this kind of obviously small circle gathering, because the people who can appear here are either his confidants or potential allies that he feels he has a high chance of winning over."

"So it's not difficult to confirm Remi's arrival, the difficult part is to find a way to pass on the information here."

"After all, I just observed that this place looks like an ordinary manor, but it is not only full of secret guards, but also has many extraordinary detection items placed inside and outside the manor."

"It's hard for my crow to escape detection from these things and just fly away." "What should I do then?"

Hearing what Rhine said, Enrico panicked.

Because if they can't pass the news here.

Then the church would not be sure when to take action.

Acting too early might allow Remi to react in advance and not reach the Red Grape Manor directly.

If we act too late, Remi might leave before the church attacks the manor.

Therefore, the best time to take action is undoubtedly when they know for sure that Remi has arrived.

Looking at the somewhat panicked Enrico, Rhine said calmly: "It's okay, I have already figured out how to solve this problem."

"After all, I had considered similar situations before I came here."

"Although the current situation is complicated, it is not beyond my ability."

"Is that so? Then it all depends on you, Rhine."

"Ah."

After calming down, Enrico quickly calmed down as well.

And Remi's special party didn't keep them waiting for long.

dong dong dong...

Hearing the knock on the door outside, Enrico and Lei Yin looked at each other and understood what each other meant.

"Come in."

After getting Enrico's permission, the person outside the door pushed the door open and walked in.

"Dear guest, our manor's unique game is about to begin. Are you interested?"

"game?"

Enrico looked confused, obviously not understanding what this so-called game was.

The servant who came in was not surprised by this.

He immediately smiled and said, "Yes, dear guest, it is a game, a wonderful game that you can't play anywhere else except here."

Hearing this, Enrico immediately asked curiously: "Can you tell me what the content of this game is?"

"After all, if I don't even know what the game is, how can I be interested in it?"

"My dear guest, have you ever participated in hunting?"

Enrico nodded. As a young nobleman, how could he not have experienced hunting?

"Since you have experienced hunting, you can think of this game we are hosting as a different kind of hunting."

"The difference is that this time the prey is very special."

"During the hunting process, whether the guests choose to kill or capture the prey, we will not ask."

"So, does your honorable guest understand?"

Before Enrico could answer, Rhine frowned and said, "You mean, the prey you arranged is a human?"

In response to Rhine's question, the servant smiled and said, "Most of them are human, but a few are not."

Hearing this description, Enrico appeared unmoved, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

Taking humans as prey.

Are these guys crazy?

But looking at the calm look of the guy in front of him, Enrico understood that he might not think how crazy the things he was involved in were, but was used to it.

"Lead the way."

Before Enrico could recover from his shock, Rhine had made a decision.

In response, the servant looked at Rhine strangely, and then looked at Enrico again.

He seemed to be wondering why it was the knight Rhine who spoke first and not the noble young master Enrico beside him.

However, after seeing the servant's reaction, Enrico immediately said: "What he means is what I mean."

"understood."

The servant did not ask any further questions and immediately took the two of them to the back of the manor.

Along the way, Rhine and Enrico saw many people who had just come out of the room.

Like Rhine and the others, they walked to the back of the manor under the guidance of servants.

Some of them came well prepared and had their equipment on early.

Seeing this, Rhine and Enrico instantly understood crazy games like this.

This is not the first time that Red Grape Manor has held this event.

Led by the servants, Rhine and Enrico soon arrived at the outskirts of a hunting ground.

"My dear guest, are you going to participate in person, or will you let this knight beside you come?"

"I have to say this beforehand. Although we have tried our best to ensure the safety of our distinguished guests, every year in the Scarlet Game, some hunters are killed by their prey."

"Among these people, there are many powerful Beyonders."

"Therefore, for your safety, I suggest that you let the knight next to you attend on your behalf."

Enrico did not answer the question immediately, but looked towards the outer center of the hunting ground, where there was a burly man wearing a white tiger mask.

Although the other party was wearing a mask, his burly figure and undisguised tone of voice were still visible.

People guessed his identity at the first moment.

There is no doubt that the man wearing the white tiger mask is Count Randy’s eldest son, Remi.

Enrico was not the only one who guessed his identity. The nobles around him had undoubtedly guessed it as well, so they all gathered around him.

Seeing this, the servant smiled and said, "The master personally participates in the Scarlet Game every year, and he has been the champion of the Scarlet Game for five consecutive years."

"Although we have reminded the owner of the dangers many times, he still enjoys doing it."

Enrico asked puzzledly: "He is personally involved, who can beat him?"

In response, the servant said seriously: "Dear guest, please do not question our fairness, and do not underestimate the master's strength."

“He deserves all the five championships he has won.”

"Well, dear guest, if you want to participate in the game, please decide first whether you want to participate yourself or send someone to participate."

"All of this must be decided before the game starts. There is still an hour before the game starts. You can take your time to think about it."

"Once you have thought it over, you can ring the bell at this location and someone will come to guide you personally."

After saying that, the servant wearing the big yellow dog mask left first.

Looking at his back, Rhine said meaningfully: "On one side is the bloody hunt, and on the other side are all kinds of animal masks. It seems that this is really a zoo."

In response, Enrico nodded in agreement and said, "That's true, so are you ready to participate?"

Rhine looked in the direction of Remi and said without hesitation: "This is a rare opportunity, why should I miss it?"

"it is good."
