Almighty Alchemist - v4 Chapter 7

Wuyin Castle, located at the outermost edge of Warrington, the combination of the western suburbs and the southern suburbs, still belongs to the southern suburban castle area in name. And the entire old castle area, all the ancient buildings together, may not be as famous as the foggy castle.

The current owner of Wuyin Castle is the Jacobs family of the four nobles of the empire.

The four major empire families, the most historical and pedigree qualified are the Southern family, but they were born of blood, and lost to blood. Therefore, although they are true noble families, they can only become commercial families in the end. Family.

The Jacobs family is the most politically influential of the four major families. Their patriarch, Alec; the Duke of Jacobs, was the minister of the Empire. The eldest son, Lentino; the Marquis of Jacobs is the director of the Imperial General Administration of Law, and the second son, Jacob, has won an earl and a post of director of the Warrington Sheriff’s Office. The three daughters married three important figures of the empire, and in this case, they sprang up and formed a huge network of bureaucracy.

Wuyin Castle was bought by the Grand Duke thirty years ago. At that time, he may also have the idea and plan to uncover Electra’s secret laboratory, but thirty years is enough to let all ambitions pass.

What surprised Xiuyi was that Xiuyi himself was the one who really prompted the Grand Duke to make up his mind to sell this property.

The reason is very simple. The emergence and counterattack of Xiu Yi were the most affected by the Imperial Law Office. Raschel could be the supreme commander of the Hunting Rat operation, not only because of the support of Chaclay and Padgett, but the most important point was Lentino; the Marquis Jacobs trusted him very much. At that time, he was punished for being convicted of high-level officials, that is, Lentino; Jacobs kept him, and sent him to serve as a sheriff in Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

But now, Raschel has not been able to produce results.

Xiu’s counterattack was fierce and fierce. Before Raschel caught him, Lentino; the Marquis of Jacobs had been yelled countless times by the emperor Strike VI. However, Lentino; Earl Jacobs always trusted Raschel, and he believed that if Raschel could not catch Xiuyi, no one could catch Xiuyi.

After all, Xiuyi is indeed not an ordinary criminal. He has the teleportation technology and can come and go as he pleases. His experience on Purgatory Island also fully illustrates this person’s cunning means. For this reason, even the emperor did not immediately replace others.

However, for the Jacobs family, the appearance of Hugh Glair still seriously affected the status of the Marquis. If this continues, it is normal for the Marquis to lose his office.

The Grand Duke considers Wuyin Castle an unknown object.

He invested too much in this castle, died a lot of alchemists, lost countless money, and the young man who caused the unstable status of the eldest son is also an excellent alchemist. When people are superstitious, they can really be connected together. So Hidden Castle became a burden in the heart of the Grand Duke, as unknown as Hugh Iglell. The Grand Duke hoped that he had nothing to do with alchemy in this life. For him, keeping the family’s glory and power was the most important thing, so he couldn’t wait to sell the castle.

But he never expected that the Hugh Glair he hated would be the buyer of his castle.

This is where things get messy.

Hidden Moon Peak is a branch vein at the extreme edge of Lilegula Mountain.

The huge Lille Gula Mountain, which runs through the entire continent, has become a natural barrier for the Lance Empire. Yinyue Peak is a small tentacle that extends to the empire. It is a little territorial claim made to protect half of the Lance Empire.

This originally low and ordinary hill was one of the famous empires of the empire because of the castle under the peak.

No one knows why the mist is perennial under the mountain, but even a few miles away, you can clearly see the misty fog.

Occasionally, thunder and thunder fell from the sky, illuminating the mist and showing the silhouette of the castle.

Tall, towering and spectacular.

The fog is not very dense, and it only appears on the outside. After walking near the castle, the sight will be better.

To Xiuyi’s surprise, the Wuyin Castle in front of him is almost the same in size and style as his own castle on Purgatory Island.

The same is the central high tower, beside the tower is the subsidiary tower. The castle is made of megaliths, and the city even has guards to guard the outposts, but there is no moat but a large iron gate.

On both sides of the large iron gate, Xiu Yi saw two magnificent, four-winged toothy beast stone statues, exquisitely carved, and even the hair must be very clear, and the size ratio was based on the actual size .

“The two stone statues are like the castle, they are left hundreds of years ago. They are the relics of Electra. All the castle owners have taken great care of it, and each one may have been used by the legendary alchemist. They kept everything intact as much as possible. Of course, there are also a few castle owners who did not know each other and tried to move the two stone statues. As a result … “

The speaker was a steward of the Jacobs family.

When they learned that someone wanted to buy this castle, the Jacobs family immediately sent a guide who could talk.

Unlike selling real estate elsewhere, everyone who tries to buy Wuyin Castle is not the house itself, but its former owner. Therefore, the people of the castle do not have to bother to introduce its benefits. Instead, they should take the initiative to remind the other party of the matters that they should pay attention to.

“What happened?” Xiuyi asked at this moment.

“People who tried to move the statue were killed by a sudden lightning.” The steward replied: “Although this is where the alchemists are afraid, ordinary people must also be careful.” The steward did not know about Dardanelle What is a family

m) However, the young man who can be accompanied by Mrs. Christine and the bird leans like a human is always worthy of attention. He had decided to report the situation to the patriarch as soon as he returned.

“What else needs attention?” Xiu continued.

“In fact, there aren’t many.” The steward laughed and said, “Buy this castle, just remember a few things. The first thing is not to easily move the building structure here. It is strange to say that this castle has gone through hundreds of Years, but there is no sign of damage. It is very sturdy, it only needs to be cleaned, and other problems do not need to worry at all. “

“That’s because there is a magic circle here to maintain all this.” Xiu Yi said indifferently.

“It turns out that you are also an alchemist, yes, some alchemists have said this before.” The steward sighed in his heart, “but no one has ever known how this magic circle works.”

“Talk about other things to pay attention to.”

“Since you’re also an alchemist, it’s easy to say a few more. Come with me, I’ll take you to the main hall first.”

The housekeeper took the lead in the castle, Xiu and Christine, Lilith followed, and then Buckler and Iger.

Interestingly, the moment Christine and Lilith entered side by side, Christine dragged on intentionally or uninterestingly, bringing Lilith closer to Xiuyi, which made Lilith feel much better.

Christine is very clear that as an emotional winner, try not to appear arrogant and arrogant. On the contrary, some modest concessions can avoid unnecessary hostility. Lilith is still young. She may be able to kill Christine with one hand, but Christine has too many ways to prevent her from attacking herself.

On the contrary, you can be good sisters.

Entering the gate of the castle, Xiuyi seemed to return to Purgatory Island.

The layout of the entire castle is almost exactly the same as Purgatory Island.

Under the leadership of the steward, they quickly came to the main hall. The steward began to introduce the layout here and everything around it, but Xiu Yi was completely clear.

The main hall is large, with six large stone pillars supporting the entire tower, supporting a vast space. But there was nothing in the main hall.

Xiu Yi stood in one of them, but the image of Avril came to mind.

This shadow has been suppressed by him for so long that he can’t help jumping out at this moment.

I remember when I first met, Avril was sitting where she was standing, complaining loudly about her servant. At that time, I was standing where the housekeeper stood at the moment. On that day, he cleverly touched Avril and asked her to go to the jungle with herself; on that day, he grasped the mystery of the use of He, so that he could apprentice Neil later; on that day, she gradually changed, no longer Arrogant, becoming dependent and trusting in oneself.

Yes, this is the position under his feet.

Xiuyi didn’t expect that the castle on Purgatory Island had been destroyed, and a castle with the same pattern as Purgatory Island would once again appear here.

Is it a coincidence? Or something else?

Hines has been here!

Xiu found the answer almost immediately.

Why didn’t he die? He walked out of the castle and asked the empire to rebuild Purgatory Island Castle in this pattern. Is there anything special in it?

He turned his head and asked the housekeeper, “What else needs attention?”

The steward had already seen that the young man in front of him was the head of everyone, so he respectfully replied, “It is the tower in the castle, which can only go up to the third floor.”

Can only go up to the third floor? Xiu Yileng said, “Let’s go over to the tower.”

He walked away.

There are four doors in the main hall, each leading to a different direction. Xiu Yi went to the high tower. The housekeeper froze slightly: “Master Dardanelle, have you been here?”

Xiu stopped. He looked back at the butler with a smile on his face. “No, I haven’t been here, but I guess I should go here.”

“So it is.” The steward laughed. “Then you are right, please follow me.”

Although Xiuyi denied that he had been to the castle, doubts arose in the steward. The structure of this castle is very large, and no one can quickly find the direction unless it is someone familiar with it.

Those who are stewards for big families are mostly exquisite in their minds. If they don’t have a little ability to look at things, they can’t do it. This point revealed by Xiu Yi inadvertently made the steward’s doubts arouse, but he said nothing, but did his best to do his part.

“Here is the forbidden area?” Xiuyi asked.

Standing on the third floor of the tower, looking at the stairs leading to the fourth floor, Xiuyi felt an unknown feeling.

The internal structure of this high tower is almost similar to Purgatory Island, but the stairs to the fourth floor are completely different.

The staircase to the fourth floor is made of a black ink-like stone, dark and shiny. There was a door on the stairs that blocked everyone’s way. This does not exist on Purgatory Island.

The door didn’t know what it was made of, and it glowed a strange light. Xiu Yi could easily feel the magic breath left on it. In fact, you can see it without feeling. On the door is a huge array of six-pointed stars.

This is the largest six-man star array that Xiuyi has seen. It almost covers the entire door. Six light spots are flashing with strange light, but it does not give Xiuyi any sense of danger.

“It is also the real reason why Wuyin Castle became the death castle.” The steward answered seriously: “People who have not been to this castle think that Electra’s secret needs to be found. In fact, there is no need to look for it, here it is. As long as it is not There is no danger to anyone trying to enter this door without moving the main pattern here. “

“So, most of the dead are on the fourth level?”

“Yes.” The steward replied, “The door can be opened, and you can do it with a little understanding of alchemy. But if you go in, don’t try to come out again.”

Christine and Lilith grasped Xiu’s hand nervously at the same time. They knew Xiu too. Their enthusiasm for alchemy made him desperate to explore the secrets inside.

Xiu stared deadly at the door and looked at the huge magic array on the door without saying a word.

The steward sighed, and he did not say what to suggest that Xiuyi should not go. It can be seen that this is also a buyer who came in secret to Electra. If he is advised to give up exploring the secrets in the tower, it is tantamount to advising him not to buy the castle. But where the duty lies, he can’t tell the truth.

After looking at it for a while, Xiuyi finally said, “I will buy this castle, but I promise that I will not easily enter the door.”

Christine immediately said, “What makes it difficult to enter? Don’t try to trick us with such vague words.”

“Unless I’m absolutely sure, or before paying off your debts.”

“Some debts you will never know, Xiu … Cisedar Daniil!” Kristin in excitement almost called Xiuyi.

She turned angrily and left.

If she could, she really wanted Xiuyi to say that she would never enter this door, but she knew it would be impossible.

Watching Christine leave, Xiu Yi smiled bitterly as she chewed her words.

Yeah, some debt, he will never pay it off.

Looking at Lilith’s hopeful eyes, he caressed her face: “Trust me, I’m not sure, I will never take it lightly.”

Lilith nodded.

Xiuyi then asked the housekeeper, “How much?”

“Ten thousand vit, you know that is far from the true value of this castle.”

“When can I get it?”

“If you want, you can do it now. The people here were all emptied as early as half a year ago. Everything has been moved away. Whatever is left is immovable. You just need to clean it and live.

“Then sign the agreement.”! ~!
