After upgrading his skills, Su Yu continued with his main mission.

Having summoned Dima, they headed south towards Fish Tail Lane.

The Duke’Saif’s estate was situated at the end of Fish Tail Lane in the south of the city. As per Maple City’s map, the estate was quite large, occupying almost half of the southern city.

So, it was quite easy for Su Yu to find the mansion.

However, taking precautions, he once again sought the help of a [Disguise Master] to disguise himself as an ordinary mercenary warrior.

Upon arriving at the mansion’s entrance, Su Yu hid under the side eaves to observe.

Two guards clad in full iron armor stood at the mansion’s entrance. Despite the stifling heat, the guards stood motionless, swathed in layers of iron.

Su Yu activated his [Invisibility Skill] and slowly approached the gate–but as he got within ten meters of the gate, the guards moved!

They drew their swords, peering suspiciously in Su Yu e s direction.

Obviously, they had noticed Su Yu.

Left with no other choice, Su Yu turned and left.

If the main gate was impenetrable, Su Yu figured he would scale the walls surrounding the mansion.

He hoped to find a gap in the wall to climb over.

However, after having traveled a few hundred meters along the wall, Su Yu found that the entire mansion seemed to be shielded by a massive magical barrier.

Given his current abilities, there was no way he could penetrate the barrier without alerting those inside.

The plan failed again.

Nonetheless, Su Yu refused to be discouraged.

After all, this was a main mission. There must be a way to break the deadlock. All he had to do was patiently hunt for it.

Finding no breach in Duke’s Mansion, Su Yu got a brainwave and began to search for clues in the residences around the mansion. Fish Tail Lane, particularly, was his prime focus for clues.

“Hey, ma’am, I’d like to ask you…”

“Scram! Can’t you see I’m busy?”

“Here is 30 spiritual energy coins…”

NPC “Auntie”: “!! What do you want to ask, I have plenty of time!” “l want to ask if anything unusual has been happening around here recently?”

“Unusual incidents? There’s plenty of them! Let me tell you…”

The NPC Auntie started speaking non-stop.

Su Yu went around in Fish Tail Lane, extracting information from the residents.

Of course, most of the information was useless.

All Su Yu needed to do was sift through the waves of useless information for the clues he needed.

At last, during his fourth NPC interactions, a comment caught his attention.

The NPC was a cheerful elderly man.

“Speaking of unusual incidents, yesterday I saw the Duke and the Countess Carter together. The Countess Carter has got a great figure! The way she swings her hips when she walks is really attractive!” he said with a suggestive smile.

su Yu: “???”

He sensed something amiss in the elderly man’s story–if the Duke had guests, wouldn’t he go by carriage? How did the elderly man see them walking?

So Su Yu quickly asked, “Where did you see them?”

The elderly man laughed, “Of course, I saw them in front of Pim Hunter’s house! ”

“Pim Hunter is a beautician. Every now and then, the Duke takes a few beautiful ladies to visit him, most of whom are the wives of other noblemen…lt’s been an open secret in Fish Tail Lane for a while.”

“Oh, I see.” Su Yu nodded subtly.

He suddenly realized this was the information he sought.

Why would Duke Saif regularly visit this beautician?

To please the wives of the nobles?

Unlikely, he is a Duke after all.

“Anyway, I must go see him first. Maybe I can find something useful there,” Su Yu thought to himself.

…

Five minutes later, Su Yu appeared beneath the eaves of Pim Hunter’s house.

Pim Hunter’s house was a three-story pure white mansion, exquisitely carved with intricate sculptures on the exterior wall, and included a huge yard.

It screamed affluence!

Two guards in leather armor stood before the mansion’s massive door.

However, these two guards were a far cry from the ones stationed at the

Duke’s mansion. They were lackadaisical and were only first-rank guards.

Su Yu used his [Invisibility Skill] and easily slipped through the massive door.

Having successfully breached the property, he began conducting a detailed search of Pim Hunter’s house.

Perseverance paid off.

At last!

In the woodshed in the backyard of Pim Hunter’s house, Su Yu found exactly what he was looking for–a secret tunnel.

The woodshed was devoid of firewood.

Lifting a plank from the shed floor, Su Yu discovered the secret passage.

The tunnel led west, and about 500 meters to the west was the Duke’s mansion.

If his guess was correct, this tunnel must lead directly to the Duke’s mansion!

“Just as I thought!” said Su Yu with a slight smirk.

He figured out the events he’d heard:

The Duke and the wives of other nobles were having affairs, and they had to avoid making it public. They couldn’t just directly bring other men’s wives into his mansion.

So they came to the beautician’s house and entered the mansion through the secret tunnel, which was good for preserving both parties’ reputations.

Having found the secret tunnel, he was going to proceed for sure.

But as Su Yu was about to move, a blue and white figure suddenly flew into the woodshed from outside.

Su Yu jumped.

However, he soon relaxed after seeing who it was. Because it was none other, than the Cat Morning Star.

“Why are you here?” Su Yu asked quietly.

“I…ah no, Alyssa was worried about you and asked me to help out, so I followed your scent and found you.”

Morning Star leapt onto Su Yu’s shoulder.

She noticed the opened floor of the woodshed and the dark tunnel beneath and curiously asked, “What is this?”

“This is a secret passageway to Duke’s mansion…”

Su Yu briefly explained what had just happened.

“Oh, I see.” Nodded Morning Star, “Then let’s go in. With me as your escort, completing this mission should be a breeze!”

“Alright then.” Su Yu did not oppose.

After closing the door of the woodshed, he jumped into the secret tunnel.

The first few meters of the tunnel were quite narrow.

But as they proceeded, suddenly their surroundings opened up.

He and Morning Star had entered a large underground chamber.

Glowstone embedded in the chamber wall illuminated the chamber as bright as day.

Surveying the place, Su Yu estimated the chamber to be about 1600 square meters and was a perfect square in shape.

The square was divided into sixty-four cells in an 8×8 arrangement, and each cell was 5 meters wide.

The cells were painted in alternating black and white.

Many cells contained massive statues; some resembled a tower, and others resembled a horse’s head.

This entire underground chamber had been laid out like a giant chessboard!
