Chapter 190

An Yizhi and Tu Hongyu leave the entertainment room. He plans to check the safe in Eugene's room with the key found from Eugene.

The old housekeeper had planned to follow, but Ann pointed out that it was too dangerous to use it outside. He could not rule out the possibility of external prisoners committing crimes, so he advised him to go back.

To be honest, although the housekeeper has been very cooperative, an Yizhi has a feeling of being monitored. What's more, what they have to do next is not very legal.

"This helmet seems to be equipment. Take it."

"Oh, elite level, good, can sell for two money"

They began to search

After finding two items in the study, an Yizhi had some insight. Since the valuable ancient books may be magic books, there may be other equipment hidden in this foreign Museum.

As a result, when they checked the armor on the corridor, they found that the helmet on it was actually a piece of equipment.

After a search, they found an excellent long sword and an elite helmet.

As for attributes, there is no need to care. Anyway, Tu Hongyu will sell or change what he needs, so he doesn't have much to say.

Then they went to the study and searched it thoroughly. This time, they found a folded parchment in the interlayer of the book "classical Knight swordsmanship tactics" on the shelf. The system identification result was an e-level melee skill, which was still given to Tu Hongyu.

An Yizhi had already taken advantage of it, so he gave Tu Hongyu what he found later.

I've got the benefits. It's time to get down to business.

They went to Eugene's bedroom and opened the door of the safe with the key.

Fortunately, this is a very old-fashioned safe. There is no password. Otherwise, an Yizhi can catch the blind. He can't distinguish the safe password with a stethoscope.

"Or... The key?"

In addition to some ornament quality gemstones and pounds, there is only one key in the safe.

The key was large and looked like a small baton. The tip of the key was hexagonal and painted with many mysterious patterns and a swallowing snake on it.

"This is the symbol of alchemy. It seems that Eugene's identity is not as simple as the boss of a pharmaceutical company."

"Is it related to alchemy in ancient Europe? Isn't it once regarded as an evil law and eliminated by the church?"

"There are always those who try to master alchemy and expect to get rich overnight. Most of them are cheated by using brass as gold."

It's a very simple chemical experiment. I believe many people's teachers taught how to make fool's gold when they were in school. That thing only looks like gold. It's the only way many alchemists in ancient times fooled those in power to hire themselves.

However, in reality, the so-called alchemists are more likely to be a group of early chemists. Whether these people are liars or not, at least they have made a great contribution to the development of early human chemistry.

But combined with the "zombie" appearing in this copy, the alchemy represented by this key lock is not necessarily the "Chemistry" in reality. It may be the real guy.

"Let's not say whether it's true alchemy. How can this thing be used? Can't you go back to the old house?"

It is certain that there are some monsters like zombies wandering in the old house, and they are not afraid of the infinite power of guns. If Mao runs back rashly, it will be torn into strips of meat.

"There's a place you haven't seen. Come with me."

"Where?"

"Music appreciation room"

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The system will not arrange tasks that cannot be completed, and of course, it will not arrange tasks that do not meet the difficulty.

The zombie monster in the old house is certainly not only two players of pistols. This key is unlikely to be used there.

So the goal has been very clear. They have explored almost all rooms, except the music appreciation room.

They first went back to the entertainment room to find the old housekeeper and took the key.

After this period of time and the recovery of alcohol, Mrs. Green and the frightened servant became more and more emotionally stable. One of Hammill and Charles was bored playing billiards by himself, and the other was throwing darts. It seemed that there was nothing unusual during the period when Ann Yizhi and Charles left.

Get the key and open the door of the music appreciation room. The decoration here is different from that of other rooms.

An Yizhi touched the wall. It was soft at the beginning. It was specially made sound-absorbing material.

"Why do I feel a little wrong in this room?"

Tu Hongyu is a welder, but he also does chores related to interior decoration. He also has the certificate of plumber, so as soon as he entered the door, he found that there was something wrong in this room.

"What's wrong?"

"I can't say, but it feels a little small. From the outside, this room should be bigger."

"Could it be the arrangement of sound-absorbing materials?"

"It doesn't take more than one meter to decorate that thing."

"That's right"

Sound absorbing materials are mainly used to absorb vibration. Although those things consume more space than ordinary wallpaper decoration, they don't need more than one meter of space as Tu Hongyu said.

In short, there is a secret passage in this house.

Limited by the age and architectural design concept, it is impossible to build dark roads in this era too seamlessly. Tu Hongyu, who is better at this aspect, found it normal.

They immediately began to search the room. The shelf with a large number of records was the focus of their search, but those records were almost like the books in the study. There were so many that they couldn't be searched for a while.

The system still has about three hours to count down. This time is certainly not enough to search all of them. There must be clues they didn't notice.

If I were Eugene, how would I open the secret entrance?

Under the floor, on the edge of the wall, or even behind the record rack.

Wait, the housekeeper said there was a fire here

The secret passage hidden in the room on the second floor rather than on the first floor obviously will not be excavated by itself after the house is built. It must be arranged during the design. Therefore, assuming that the secret passage already exists before the fire, this secret passage and the way to open it must not be afraid of fire, Otherwise, the secret road collapses or is damaged, and Eugene doesn't have to cherish the key.

So, is there anything that is not afraid of fire?

An Yi looked around and finally locked his eyes on a decoration on the wall of the room.

It's a metal statue. It looks like something like a screw fixed to the wall.

An Yizhi carefully observed it and found that there were some uneven colors at the bottom of the statue, which showed that the statue had been repainted, but because it remained on the wall and could not be removed, the paint brush did not apply to the bottom corners.

eureka!

Ann stretched out her hand and broke it. She only heard a huge sound of gears and mechanisms running from behind the wall. A window opened in the wall behind the record shelf.

It was a metal door painted with a six pointed star pattern and a snake that kept swallowing its tail. There was a hexagonal gap in the middle of the Dharma array, just the size of the key.

"Are you ready?"

Tu Hongyu nodded. With a pistol in one hand and a flashlight in the other hand, he put a finger in the key and unscrewed it.

The key was deep in the door, and a strong force came. The key was swallowed by the metal door, and then the door opened slowly.

Tu Hongyu takes the lead. Their attribute values are initial values. Tu Hongyu's physique is higher than that of an Yizhi. In addition, he is more used to close combat, so he takes the lead.

This is a staircase leading to the bottom. When an Yizhi and Tu Hongyu stepped into it, a string of light bulbs lit on both sides of the channel and led to the bottom.

Tu Hongyu whistled:

"You don't need a flashlight now."

"Then don't turn it off. Turn it on first."

This is to prevent them from rushing in case the lighting goes out suddenly.

They walked down the stairs for about twenty meters. At this time, they should have gone deep underground. They saw a metal door blocking the way.

The door was unlocked, and there was no trap after trial, but a passage engraved on the door attracted the attention of an Yizhi.

"One is all, and all is one"

I believe those who see this and know something about animation will think of the famous' alchemist of steel 'in the island country, but an Yizhi didn't think so. He thought of another more terrible and incomprehensible existence.

——Yug Sotos.

Shit, isn't this a copy of that background again?

In his heart, Tu Hongyu opened the door at this time. What appeared in front of the players was a simple room, a little like the laboratory where chemists do experiments. There were all kinds of beakers, test tube distillers and other experimental equipment everywhere. Many solutions of different colors were placed on the shelf not far from the experimental table.

On the other side of the experimental table is a huge prison that blocks half a room, but you can see an open gap on the other side of the prison. I don't know where it leads.

"This should be the experimental record. Look, I'm on guard."

Tu Hongyu picked up a booklet on the experimental table and handed it to an Yizhi. An Yizhi didn't refuse to open it.

It seems that some of this booklet is very old, not written by a generation. The first ten pages are made of ancient parchment, and later, modern industrial paper gradually appears.

When the system translation appeared in real time, an Yizhi turned to the first page, which read:

"Immortality"
