I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

At 12 o’clock midnight, in the mountain ranges of Lapin maakunta in northern Finland.

Except for the manor five kilometers away and the highway a few kilometers out, there were no signs of human existence.

On this quiet night, a “meteor” crossed the night sky and landed in the frozen soil covered by pines.

There was a loud and deep bang.

The snow on the ground splattered and turned into mist under the high-temperature airflow.

When the mist mixed with snow dissipated, a prismatic-shaped airdrop cabin appeared. With the sound of air leaking out, the door gradually opened. A figure stumbled out from inside and scared away a little fox peeking its head out at the foreign object.

“Damn, this stuff is really not meant for humans.”

Holding the pine tree trunk next to him, Jiang Chen gagged, and then wiped his mouth with his arm.

Compared to him, Ayesha seemed just fine. She stepped out of the airdrop cabin and walked next to him with a look of concern. She patted his back and said quietly.

“Are you okay? How about… you wait for me here?”

“Pshh, wait for you here? Then why did I come? Don’t worry, I’m fine. My stomach just feels a bit agitated.” Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and then straightened his back. He looked at Ayesha with a reassuring smile before heading back to the airdrop cabin and putting his hand on the cabin.

With a blink, the entire airdrop cabin was tossed into the storage dimension.

When he received the coordinates from Lin Lin, Jiang Chen interdimensional traveled back to the modern world. He used the space elevator to head to Celestial City before landing directly in northern Finland through the airdrop cabin.

Originally, he was planning to go alone, but he couldn’t convince the stubborn Ayesha, so he took her along.

This mission shouldn’t be dangerous. Carmen with exposed coordinates was no different than a dead man. Even if he came himself, he was more than capable of finishing the task.

If it was not for the fact that he had wanted to say farewell to his “old friend”, he could have ordered Monica to finish the job.

Putting on the K2 kinetic skeleton with the optical invisibility module, Jiang Chen checked his equipment and confirmed everything. Then, he called out a snowmobile from the storage dimension.

The distance of five kilometers was still a bit far away, not to mention being in a mountainous range. If they walked, it would be late into the night before they arrived.

After Ayesha hopped on, Jiang Chen started the snowmobile and galloped toward the manor located halfway up the mountain.

Rather than saying it was a manor, a castle was the better fitting description.

The northernmost manor of the Rothschild family was built in the 17th century and belonged to a Swedish prince. After several transactions, it was bought by the Rothschild family and renovated into a habitable manor. Other than the walls, it looked nothing like its former appearance.

The snowmobile was recalled into the storage dimension. The two hiked up along the mountain path. When they were halfway, Ayesha gestured to Jiang Chen and then started optical invisibility to move up alone.

The security guard wearing a thick jacket stood at the gate of the manor and yawned at the empty and lonely path.

A cold gust blew by which made him shiver. He scanned around and then cursed under his breath.

“F*ck, is there really anyone that will come to this god forbidden place?”

Just as he said this, he did not notice a nearly transparent figure walk beside him.

Shaking his head, under the dim light, he suddenly saw a line of footprints that did not belong to his on the snow. This immediately alerted him. However, he didn’t have time to react before the series of current noises took away the consciousness left in him.

Ayesha, who had already taken out two guards after him came back and tasered him.

An ordinary person wouldn’t be able to wake up in a day.

She dragged the security guard across the ground and hid him in the bushes, Ayesha proudly shook the electric taser in her hand towards Jiang Chen, as if she was saying, “Look, it was the correct choice to bring me.”

Jiang Chen made a helpless expression, got up from behind the bushes, and walked up to the main gate without any defense left.

His original plan was to rush in with a rifle. Since this place was far away from the city, he didn’t need to worry about the Finnish police showing up. However, a low-key mission also had its advantage. At least they could avoid some trouble before retreating.

Easily avoiding the patrols of more than a dozen security guards, Jiang Chen followed Ayesha and successfully passed through the atrium into the main building. After entering the building, all defense suddenly seemed to disappear as there was not even a single guard in the building.

“This defense is too lax.” Walking up the stairs, Jiang Chen frowned. He examined at the decorations in the manor. Medieval armors and shields with accents of history and the Rothschild emblem smeared with time, these should be fairly old.

Just as he was about to take a step, Ayesha suddenly grabbed him and pointed to the corner of the wall.

Jiang Chen stopped, squinted his eyes before finally detected the oddity.

“Infrared alarm?”

Ayesha nodded. She tossed out a special powder, and soon the infrared rays that were staggered in the hallway were outlined. Even with optically invisible, they didn’t completely disappear. If they trigger the alarm, they may trigger some hidden traps.

Jiang Chen’s only confusion was that if Carmen protected himself like painting in a museum, does he not need to go to the washroom at night?

“Give me some time.”

The little girl pulled out some equipment and began to dismantle the alarm, but Jiang Chen stopped her.

“Leave it to me,” Jiang Chen smiled, with confidence and then took out an EMP grenade from his pocket. He pulled the fuse and rolled it on the floor into the middle of the hallway.

The static and current noise filled the corridor and the infrared rays all disappeared. Even the alarm system was fried.

Looking at the speechless Ayesha, Jiang Chen grinned.

“Time to go.”

Jiang Chen whispered into the communication channel as looked his rifle, and took the first step forward.

About half a year ago, Monica had been here in the manor. But when she came, Carmen was not here. Although she returned without success, she still remembered the structure of this manor. Such as Carmen’s office, and the bedroom he once lived in.

Following the map, standing at the door of Carmen’s bedroom, Jiang Chen cleared his throat and politely knocked on the door.

What surprised him, however, was that the room was unexpectedly quiet, and there was not a single sound.

Jiang Chen frowned, realizing something was not right and turned on the radio life detection device. To his surprise, there was no sign of life in this entire building. The security guards were concentrated in the atrium while the servants were sleeping in the annex…

“What’s wrong?” Ayesha walked next to Jiang Chen and looked to him.

“Still a step late…?”

Ayesha unlocked the door with the omnipotent key. After entering the room, Jiang Chen turned on his tactical flashlight and examined the bedroom. The bedding was new, and there was a book placed on the bedside table. From the details, the owner of the manor should have just left not long ago…

He moved forward, picked up the book on the bedside table wrapped in cowhide.

Using the flashlight, he identified the two lines of gilded words on the cover. It should be a biography.

The author was someone that belonged in the Rothschild family. It should be the family history of the Rothschild family.

“We certainly won’t go back empty-handed.” Jiang Chen’s lips curved up as he turned the pages of the book with interest. He scanned the contents of the book.

Just then, Ayesha received a call from a Ghost Agent.

After speaking to the agent, she walked up to Jiang Chen’s side and softly said.

“The Russian’s have returned us with a favor.”

“Oh? What kind of favor?” Jiang Chen stopped reading and asked.

“They saw Carmen at the Arrow military base next to the Inari Lake refugee camp.”
