Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

When Zhou Ning walked to the door of the house on the right, he suddenly felt a sense of gloom. According to the nameplate hanging on the door, he learned that the owner of the manor was named Fisher, which is a common surname among the Sifalic people.

Only after getting closer did I realize that in the deep blue spiritual vision, there were an abnormal number of undead here, and their deaths were very tragic, with various parts missing, which was enough to drive people with poor mental quality crazy.

The last name Fisher was unfamiliar, but the mutilated bodies around him reminded Zhou Ning of a name Sherlock had mentioned before: Jeremy Wayne Eden. According to Sherlock, he had murdered over 35 people in a brutal manner, and his methods were quite consistent with those found on the bodies.

Zhou Ning held onto a railing with his left hand for leverage, and like a black bat, he easily leaped into Fein Manor. At this time, there was no one in the manor, and there was deathly silence all around, with only these mutilated undead walking around.

A negative effect quietly appeared on his body.

Undead's Grudge: Luck -25% (duration: 3 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes)

It seemed that Ian and John's misfortune was due to this debuff. As a transcendent, Zhou Ning no longer had much fear of the scene before him, but only instinctively felt uncomfortable.

He remained cautious as he moved among these bloody souls. Like the ghost of John's grandfather, they acted solely on their instincts and would not attack intruders. Most of them were dressed in ragged poor clothes and were not very old. Their faces showed numbness or sadness, and they wailed and sighed from time to time, which made people's backs cold.

"I wonder if I can use the Communion with the Dead to communicate with these ghosts?"

After trying to communicate with more than a dozen undead, the responses he got were either meaningless notes, or cries and wails. Zhou Ning shook his head helplessly.

"It can be basically concluded that these vengeful spirits do not have self-awareness, so we still have to find another target for the mission." Zhou Ning adjusted the collar of his windbreaker and continued to walk deeper into the manor.

The deeper they went, the colder and more eerie the atmosphere became. At least seventy to eighty people were killed here, making it a massacre. Some of them had evolved into vengeful spirits with attacking consciousness, surrounding Zhou Ning and waiting for an opportunity to attack.

Zhou Ning exhaled a burst of cold air, and golden ripples burned on his right palm. As he swung his fist, he also burned the several vengeful spirits surrounding him into ashes.

You killed a vengeful spirit (lv45) and gained 1200 experience points. (Because the monster's level is too low, the experience points were reduced by 65%).

Although the level is low, the experience is still good.

After killing seven or eight vengeful spirits that tried to attack him, Zhou Ning keenly noticed that among the group of vengeful spirits, a young man in gorgeous clothes who had just tried to attack him was breaking away from the group and quietly moving away.

found it!

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Ning's eyes. He ran towards the young undead without hesitation and blocked his way in an instant.

This was a young man who looked to be about twenty years old. He was wearing a white shirt with intricate patterns and had a painful expression on his face. If it weren't for his obvious independent consciousness, he could easily be confused with other undead.

At the same time, the progress of the "Mystery in the Ancient House" quest quietly jumped to 35%. "Guessed right!" Zhou Ning was pleasantly surprised.

"No... don't hurt me!" Seeing Zhou Ning coming over, the young undead huddled up in fear. It was obvious that the scene of Zhou Ning killing the vengeful spirit just now had left him with a huge psychological trauma.

"Calm down. I just want to find you to understand some things. Of course, if you don't cooperate, I don't mind taking action." Zhou Ning said with a smile.

"What...what's the problem?" the young undead asked tremblingly.

"I want to know who killed you? And why?"

The young undead lowered his head, and after a while he raised it and said, "It was Jeremy Wayne Aiden. He stabbed me to death with a bone spear because I knew some of his secrets."

"What secret?" Zhou Ning asked.

"On the surface, he was a successful businessman, but in reality, he was working for Earl Robbins. His affairs included kidnapping and murder. The specific purpose was unknown, but it was related to religion. I was his only son and participated in many of his affairs, but my death was caused by accidentally witnessing his meeting with Earl Robbins. They were performing some kind of religious ceremony at the time. There was a black altar with a statue on it and a pentagram array underneath. I didn't see the details clearly." The young undead said painfully.

Zhou Ning's heart skipped a beat. The description sounded like a ritual of sacrificing resentment to the ancient gods. He picked up a branch and scribbled a picture of a minotaur resembling Nyastra on the ground. "Is this the statue?" he asked.

"It seems so." The young undead looked at the portrait in confusion and replied.

"Are there any other secrets?" At this time, the mission progress had jumped to 85%, and Zhou Ning continued to ask.

"No more... Oh, by the way, does Jeremy Wayne Eden's alias count? I once saw his other identity badge, named Chris Fisher, who was the director of an orphanage in Docklands... I don't know if he still exists now. Haha, isn't it ridiculous? A demon who kills people like crazy is actually the director of an orphanage." The young undead sneered.

As soon as the young undead finished speaking, a prompt appeared on the interface:

[B-rank hidden mission: Traces of the Dead, Part 226000, [Mystery in the Ancient House] has been completed. You have earned experience points.]

[Total number of tasks completed: 1/4. You can apply for task settlement at any time. The system will give additional rewards based on the task evaluation.]

"Chris Fisher..." This name is worth paying attention to. Based on my own gaming experience, clues that can be regarded as key information for the mission will definitely not be without value.

Zhou Ning memorized the name and looked at the young undead with a cold expression. He said, "I've finished asking. Do you have any other wishes? I promise to do my best to help you fulfill them."

This young undead had obviously participated in many of Jeremy Eden's brutal murders. Even though he was dead, Zhou Ning had no intention of letting him go.

The young undead seemed to realize something, his face suddenly turning pale. After a moment, he said dejectedly, "I understand. Can you help me go to St. Raymond's Church and confess to the Sun Goddess? I helped my father do many bad things."

"Okay." Zhou Ning nodded calmly, turned around and left. Behind him, a ball of golden flame was quietly burning on the body of the young undead, and burned to ashes after a while.

Zhou Ning remained cautious as he came out. He returned along the same route, nimbly climbed over the fence and left Fein Manor. His steps were brisk, and he was happy to have completed a hidden task.

As for the soul of John's grandfather, Zhou Ning decided to wait until he asked John before taking any action.

He looked at the street lights on both sides of the road, dodged into the shadows on one side, and took out "Damian's Ordinary Mirror" from the inventory. Following the spiritual prompt, he gently stroked the mirror surface while communicating with the mark on the other side. Unknowingly, he merged into the mirror. Outside a layer of light film, there was the full-length mirror in the hotel.

The mirror jump was successful!

Zhou Ning appeared in the hotel room. The window was half open and the bedding was a little messy, just as it was when he left.

I have to say, the new function of this mirror is much more useful than I imagined.
