Chapter 451: Hotel Spirit, Sneaking Into the Palace

Chapter 451: Hotel Spirit, Sneaking Into the Palace

“Is there anyone here? We want to stay!”

In the Imperial City’s hotel, Linus could not help but ask loudly as he led his subordinates into the empty hall.

However, what made Linus and the others feel extremely strange was that this hotel, which was known to be the most prosperous in Imperial City, did not have a single elf around.

After realizing that the atmosphere in the hotel was indeed strange, someone could not help but suggest to Linus, “High Priest, this place is a little strange. Let’s go!”

Linus nodded and gestured for everyone to leave the hotel.

Suddenly, the sound of slow footsteps could be heard from the second floor. Following that, a Dark Elf, whose movements were as stiff as a puppet, walked down the stairs step by step. His face was expressionless. He looked as if he was someone who had died a long time ago.

After seeing this, Linus calmed himself down and said again, “We are believers who are here to make a pilgrimage. May I know if we can stay here?”

The Dark Elf who was walking on the stairs suddenly stopped and turned his neck stiffly. He paused and looked at Linus and the others like a clumsy puppet.

The Dark Elf suddenly said in a mechanical voice, “Sure, you can stay in any room that is empty!”

The subordinates behind Linus were so scared that they were covered in cold sweat. They were all hoping that Linus would stick to his previous decision and lead them out of there.

However, Linus’s expression was very serious. He stared at the Dark Elf on the stairs. He wanted to see what else he would do after answering him.

The Dark Elf on the stairs ignored Linus and the others and walked down the stairs. He picked up the cleaning equipment from a corner and began to tidy up the tables and chairs in the hall meticulously.

Linus retracted his gaze and looked around. Although the entire hotel did not seem to have any elves, it was still very clean from top to bottom. Someone must have cleaned it regularly.

The Dark Elf in front of him was the employee in charge of cleaning. He was not a receptionist who had heard their questions and specially came to receive them.

At that moment, a subordinate asked Linus again, “High Priest, this place is very strange. Let’s find another place to stay!”

Linus shook his head and said resolutely, “The security in Imperial City is very tight. It’s not like you haven’t seen it. If we don’t find a place to stay before nightfall, we will be treated as assassins with ill intentions in Imperial City. So, since we are here, let’s settle down. I also want to see what is going on here!”

After seeing how confident Linus was, everyone could only nod their heads and follow him up the stairs boldly.

As for the Dark Elf who was cleaning the hall on the first floor, he did not even raise his head to look at them. He did not pay any attention to their discussion at all. He cleaned every corner of the room carefully and steadily.

Linus led the group up the stairs with a nervous expression. He stared at the top of the stairs as if he was worried that there might be something unusual upstairs. At the same time, he was also looking forward to it. He wanted to find out what had happened to all the Dark Elves.

Unfortunately, the corridor on the second floor was the same as the hall on the first floor. It had been cleaned meticulously, but there was not a single elf in sight.

However, some of the doors on both sides of the corridor were half-open, and some of the doors were tightly shut, making it look a little different from the first floor.

Linus walked up and found that the rooms with their doors half-open were all empty rooms that no one had checked into. The rooms with their doors shut tightly must be occupied by guests.

From the looks of it, the Dark Elf who welcomed them into the city earlier was not lying. There were quite a few elves staying in the hotel. Under the astonished gazes of his subordinates, Linus walked to a tightly shut door, raised his hand, and knocked twice.

Unfortunately, there was no answer.

Linus knocked on the door again unwillingly.

However, after waiting for a long time, the door still did not open, and there was no sound of inquiry from the room.

Linus sighed helplessly, turned around, and walked to another tightly shut room. He raised his hand and knocked, but there was still nothing.

Linus, who was a little lost and helpless, realized that the faces of his subordinates behind him were all turning pale. All of them were staring at him with their eyes wide open.

Linus asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”

One of his subordinates answered with a trembling voice, “High Priest, can you stop knocking on the door? This place is obviously very strange. If you knock on it again and something terrible happens, we won’t be able to stand it!”

After seeing this, Linus could only nod his head and choose to give up. He no longer wanted to make things difficult for those rooms that had their doors tightly shut. He said to everyone, “Everyone, let’s stay here for the night. I know that you’re all afraid so don’t stay in your rooms alone. Choose a few companions to stay with you. You can also look after each other. At night, no matter what noise you hear, you’re not allowed to open the door, and you’re not allowed to leave the room without permission. Tomorrow morning, I’ll summon all of you from room to room. If you notice anything unusual on the way, shout. I’ll immediately come and look for all of you!”

After listening to Linus’s good arrangement, all the subordinates nodded excitedly and said, “Thank you, High Priest!”

The nine subordinates were divided into three groups. When they entered their rooms, they could not wait to close their doors.

Linus stood on the spot with an awkward expression. He did not expect that he would have to stay alone in a room in the end!

However, Linus did not feel any despair in his heart. Living alone would make it easier for him to investigate the strangeness of this hotel.

Just as Linus turned around to look for a room, the two doors that he had knocked on previously actually opened at the same time. The speed and timing made Linus raise his eyebrows slightly. He took two steps back in surprise, making sure that he could see the doors opening, one on the left and one on the right.

There was nothing behind the crack. However, he could vaguely see a glimmer of light coming from the room. Nevertheless, as an outstanding hunter, Linus did not feel a trace of life behind the crack. This meant that there might not be any residents living in those rooms.

Suddenly, two black shadows flashed through the two doors at the same time. Two pairs of eyes appeared behind the doors and looked straight at Linus who was standing in the corridor.

Linus blinked his eyes and realized that two Dark Elves had appeared behind the two doors. They maintained the same posture and looked at Linus through the door. Linus felt like he was being stared at by two emotionless beasts. He felt extremely uncomfortable.

Linus took a deep breath and cupped his hands as he asked the two Dark Elves behind the doors, “Both of you, I am a believer who has come to the Imperial City for a pilgrimage. May I know where you’re from and how long have you lived here?”

However, the two Dark Elves behind the door slammed the door shut after looking at Linus up and down. They did not say a single word.

Linus looked at the two closed doors with a speechless expression. His curiosity grew stronger. However, it was obvious that knocking on the door was not going to work. Therefore, he could only turn around and find a room with a half-open door to stay in. He wanted to wait for another opportunity to investigate the strange hotel again.

After returning to his room, Linus thought for a while and said, “The guy who brought us into the city said that no one is allowed to appear on the streets at night. Perhaps the purpose isn’t to guard against outsiders, but rather something strange usually happens in Imperial City at night. Then I’ll wait until late at night to investigate the strangeness of the hotel!”

After making up his mind, Linus turned around and sat in front of the dressing mirror. He took off the golden mask on his face and looked at the severely burnt and bloody half of his face. His gaze gradually became firm.

At the same time, flames flickered in Linus’s injured eyes faintly!

Linus looked at himself in the mirror and sighed deeply, “If the strange scene in Imperial City is really caused by the demons and Gajero, I will definitely not let them off!”

…

Vincent, who had watched Linus and the others enter the hotel, walked straight back to his room. He modified his quilt to look like him again with ease. He then opened the space tunnel and disappeared on the spot.

Originally, in order to prevent others from suspecting him, Vincent could only wait until nighttime to make his move. However, it was currently different. The sudden arrival of Linus and the others gave Vincent the perfect opportunity to make his move.

This was because at that moment, not only was Vincent the only person in Imperial City who was new, there were also Linus and the others with even stranger origins. At that time, even if the demons suspected him, they would not be able to confirm that it was him. On the contrary, it might even allow Linus and the others to see the true face of the demons.

In the space tunnel, Vincent relied on his previous memories to quickly travel below the palace. Under his feet was the demon’s great array that could extract the energy of the six great Elf Kings and above him was the hall where the eight demons were seated.

However, Vincent’s travel this time was not to visit those two places. Instead, his goal was to search the hidden space behind the eight demons. There must be a great secret hidden there!

Vincent controlled his movements within the space tunnel carefully. Although he had not been discovered by anyone in the space tunnel, he had no choice but to be on guard. Plus, the array under his feet was personally set up by Gajero so it might contain other stranger abilities!

When Vincent arrived at the space, he slowly poked his head out from the ground. A dark and lightless mysterious space instantly appeared before his eyes.

In this seemingly eternal darkness, there was a tall figure flickering between light and darkness!
