Lord Game: Awakening The Legendary Multiplier From The Start - Chapter 17
‘This is so weird.
‘A bizarre corpse of a woman and disappearing villagers.
‘Also, why did she appear so close to my thatched cottage?’
There were many theories in Liao Fan’s mind.
‘She could have died when her torch burned out before she could return to her cottage.
‘The monsters in the fog had probably devoured her.’
Liao Fan figured that he could exploit her shortcomings.
‘However, if she had been attacked by a beast, there would definitely be signs of resistance.
‘Furthermore, her villagers had disappeared.’
This was really a curious case.
Liao Fan could determine one thing though.
‘This woman’s cottage is probably nearby in the direction her eyes are looking.’
There were no marks on the ground.
Liao Fan did not know what she was relying on to find her way back, but she knew the location of her cottage.
He took a deep breath and composed himself.
Then, he stood up.
The woman’s death was very miserable.
Her eyes were filled with fear and despair.
Liao Fan could not help but sigh when he thought about this.
It was truly heartbreaking.
He might encounter the same fate if he was not careful.
Soon, the corpse would be completely devoured by the monsters.
Liao Fan glanced at his villagers.
His face was full of regret.
“Dig a hole and bury her.”
“Yes, my Lord!”
The villagers began to dig a hole.
Liao Fan had a lot of torches on him, so he was not constricted in terms of time.
Once the hole was dug, the villagers buried the corpse in it.
Then, they continued their exploration.
Liao Fan headed in the direction where the woman’s eyes were looking.
He was sure that he would come across another thatched cottage!
After walking for three minutes, Liao Fan spotted a thatched cottage.
‘I knew it.’
Liao Fan took out the piece of paper and drew a mark.
‘Another safe haven.
‘I could probably take refuge here if needed.’
With this, his exploration range had expanded.
Liao Fan stood in front of the cottage’s door.
He could feel a cold chill.
It felt like something invisible was circling around him.
‘I buried your body and you’ll give me your cottage. It’s a trade and we don’t owe each other anything…”
Liao Fan silently chanted in his heart.
Then, he raised his hand and pushed the door.
The moment the door opened, Liao Fan instantly heard a series of system notifications.
[ Ding! Congratulations to Lord Liao Fan for discovering a safe house. ]
[ Ding! This safe house is currently unoccupied. Do you want to possess it? ]
[ Note: Other people will not be able to enter your safe house. All the items inside will also become yours! ]
“Was there even a need to ask?”
“Of course I’m going to take over this safe house!”
Liao Fan did not feel bad at all.
Although this was someone else’s property, she was gone.
[ Ding! This safe house is yours. ]
Liao Fan entered the thatched cottage and immediately extinguished the torch!
Then, he looked around the entire place.
The structure of the cottage was exactly the same as his. There was only one window, a simple wooden bed, a table, and a stool.
Not a single villager in the house. It was very likely that they had died as well.
Liao Fan could not find the woman’s scroll.
It was not here nor on her body.
‘Perhaps if a Lord died, their scroll would also disappear.’
There were some basic resources in the corner of the room.
All the wood had been used up.
They were probably used to synthesize torches.
On the other hand, there were still some stones. It seemed like the woman did not synthesize any stone axe, flint, or black crystal block.
Liao Fan also discovered another thing.
Everything was placed together in a corner. It looked extremely inconspicuous.
As Liao Fan stared at the items, a list of synthesizable items appeared.
[ Advanced Material: Cyan stone ]
