Chapter 372
Once Fabro died, the resistance in the manor disappeared.
Slaves and guards fled in scattered hopes to avoid subsequent massacres - the struggle for power has always been cruel, and often out of authority, the winner will ruthlessly strangle the power of the loser. The sharp blade will inevitably affect the innocent.
No one dares to gamble whether the "merciful" Lord Hugo will clean it. If the legs are all away, then the ones who cannot escape will kneel down and beg for mercy.
Zhou Qingfeng stood quietly in front of Fabro's corpse, raised his hand and his blood-stained staff flew out of thin air. Shu Mei appeared behind his head, took the staff and carefully identified it, and used multiple identification techniques and secret seal cracking in turn.
The tree spirit Erin, who is not good at fighting, carefully emerged from under the ground in the hall. After confirming that the battle was over, she held a black box in both hands and presented it to Zhou Qingfeng with a sweet smile.
This black box was found according to the prompts of the manor's housekeeper. When you open the black box, it was an oval gem as big as a quail egg. Its luster is magnificent and radiates a fantasy scene.
"It's the 'Tears of the Emperor'." Seven little fairies jumped out one after another and flew around the gems in Zhou Qingfeng's palm. They flapped their wings, and each of them sang a short song, and a light disappeared into the gems.
"It's really the 'Tear of the Emperor'." The little fairies cheered again, "This is the top magical gem, and it's hard to find in the world. It has many incredible effects. The simplest one is to be the carrier of high-level arcane."
For arcane below level three, exquisite sheepskin as a carrier and corresponding magic materials can be used to make scrolls. The spells that wizards can prepare every day are limited, and scrolls and potions are equally important life-saving equipment.
However, the Arcane above level three cannot use a parchment scroll as a carrier, and requires the use of magical gems of various levels. Among them, "Tear of the Emperor" is the best among gems and can be used to store level nine arcane.
After identifying it, the 'red-haired' goblin yelled: "Fabro's ability is not enough to use this gem. He used the 'Emperor' as the core of the magic circle in his main house."
Fabro secretly returned home and wanted to hide in his manor for refuge. However, Zhou Qingfeng followed him and instigated his manor to rebel. Many of the methods arranged in the manor were useless and all fell into the hands of the enemy.
Shumei Sophia's identification and cracking of the staff has been completed. She whispered: "Master, do you want to activate the defensive magic circle in the manor? This magic circle is connected to the alchemy laboratory placed in the underground by Fabro."
Zhou Qingfeng threw out the 'Tears of the Emperor's', "Let's start, see what good things Fabro has?"
Sophia took the gem, held the staff in her hand, and whispered the secret spell she had obtained. "The Tears of the Emperor" flew up and was automatically embedded in the broken ceiling of the hall.
The ceiling thus spread a circle of dazzling light, causing the entire hall to vibrate slightly. Sophia inserted the staff into the middle of the hall, like inserting a key.
The stone bricks on the ground collapsed and only one remained in its original place, which was extremely conspicuous. The staff inserted into the stone brick and turned gently, and the ground cracked.
Bang bang bang..., with a few slight sounds, the four corner pillars in the hall were broken. The pillars were hollow, and four gargoyles with long horns and wings, sharp claws were squatting inside.
The gargoyles opened their eyes and the red light lit up. They swayed their wings and were about to pounce on Zhou Qingfeng, but with Sophia's humble whisper, they stopped again and fell respectfully beside Zhou Qingfeng, becoming obedient slaves.
The gargoyle is just the first guard of the manor's defensive formation. There are oblique steps under the cracked ground, and inside is Fabro's core, his alchemy laboratory.
In the laboratory, there are at least a dozen alchemy structures that cost huge amounts of money. If Fabro escapes, Zhou Qingfeng will definitely be beaten to death by him and run away with no life.
Zhou Qingfeng opened the pentagram pendant of the door of True Knowledge and opened his own alchemy workshop. Shu Mei immediately understood the owner's meaning, and other strange maids sang and cast spells together, and wanted to integrate Fabro's laboratory into the workshop.
As an alchemist, Fabro's collection in the laboratory is full of dazzling collections. Specimen bottles of all sizes fly out from the ground and continue to expand the workshop's storage category.
Mondino walked forward and said in surprise: "Hisser Hugo, your gains must be quite good. Fabro is a famous alchemist throughout the North, and his family is very rich."
A specimen bottle flew past Zhou Qingfeng, and a large mantis was soaked in the anticorrosion liquid. Mondino casually explained: "This is a red mantis, a heterogeneous creature in the voodoo swamp. It is fierce and has a strong sense of territory, but unfortunately it is a specimen."
Another specimen bottle flew over, "Troll's Eye, this thing is normal and has no use. I don't know where Fabro got it."
Another one is an oversized glass jar, taller than a human, and it seems to contain a large ball of gelatin. Mondino looked through the glass for a long time but couldn't recognize what it was.
Instead, Shu Mei floated over and answered, "The gum monster is a kind of mud monster. This thing has no brains, only instincts. It eats almost everything, which is used by the alchemist to deal with garbage."
"Dispose garbage?" Zhou Qingfeng recognized this strange creature through 'monstrosology', "How many can it be processed?"
Sofia curled her lips, "This thing is so disgusting, I have never raised it. Usually wizards will raise it in the basement of their residence, and feed it all the mess.
In addition to metal, glass, stone, etc., the gum monsters do not refuse other rags, rotten wood and minced meat. They can eat them all. If you eat enough, they can split and grow by themselves. It is easy to kill it, just burn it at high temperatures."
It sounds like a fully automatic garbage disposal station that is not picky about food.
Another thing floated out of the underground laboratory, a dark ball. Mondino was excited when he saw this thing, "Hisser Hugo, I lost a fire demon skeleton before. You agreed to compensate me. I want this thing to compensate me."
The black stuff is like a cloud of fog.
Zhou Qingfeng frowned and puzzled, and Shu Mei Sofia didn't recognize her. Instead, "Jiying" leaned into her head from the broken window in the hall, "It's an evil spirit group, the consciousness of the vicious bloodthirsty person after his death is left. This thing is everywhere in the abyss."
It doesn't sound like something good, it's like a "ghost body". Zhou Qingfeng didn't want it, so he gave it to Mondino casually.
The necromancer was as if he had found a treasure. He took out a bottle very carefully and patiently controlled the black fog to put it into the bottle. He smiled happily and said, "I can use it to cultivate extremely ferocious ghosts."
Hearing this, Zhou Qingfeng even expressed his gratitude to Bumin.
Fabro's laboratory was gradually moved into the alchemy workshop, and the area of the workshop was expanded to more than 150 square meters, increasing the internal space.
Although the book collection of this "Alchemy Chief" is far inferior to that of a top elves library like the Gate of True Knowledge, there are unexpected gains when you look it up carefully.
Zhou Qingfeng found a large ornate arcane book from the bookshelf that Fabro often read. He looked carefully and saw four big words written in Neserel's language on the cover of the book cover - the Pink Book.
Damn..., what a baby, this book is interesting!
When Shu Mei saw it, she immediately said angrily: "Master, this kind of banned book must be burned."
Zhou Qingfeng immediately put it in his arms and flatly refused: "This kind of treasure that runs through the entire history of civilization cannot be lost in my hands. Don't worry, I must study it critically. It's like studying "Jin Ping Mei".
Shu Mei was so angry that she gritted her teeth, "Master, you are so shameless."
