Almighty Alchemist

In front of the gate leading to the fourth floor of the tower, Xiu Yi was carefully observing the hexagram pattern on the gate.

This six-pointed star array was the most complicated star array Xiu Yi had ever seen, and no one knew what it was used for.

Huey hopes to study the meaning and function of its existence.

Xiu Yi didn't know how the predecessors treated this place, but he was used to making decisions before acting, and he had his own way of thinking about cracking the secrets of the laboratory.

Because he owned an Electra laboratory, Huey knew much more about Electra than other alchemists. In Huey's view, Electra is a typical and authentic alchemy fanatic. He doesn't care about anything else, and only wants to pursue the ultimate alchemy. Similarly, Electra is not a stingy person. Since he is willing to leave the laboratory, and even leave golem assistants, experimental notes, King Kong puppets and other works in the valley laboratory, it shows that he does not mind letting future generations learn from his creation.

But in this case, Electra still set some difficult problems for future generations to solve. For example, the demon mouse, such as the door-opening circle on the door of the laboratory.

This can only show one thing, while Electert came to leave alchemy for future generations, he is also choosing those who inherit these things. Those who have not passed his test are not qualified to be his laboratory heirs.

Perhaps many people can figure this out, but they see breaking into the tower as a test in itself.

Huey didn't think so.

Life and death are not Electra's style. There are obvious clues for future generations to inquire and decipher. This is the demeanor that a legendary great alchemist should have.

Where is the clue?

In fact, right in front of you.

The architectural pattern that is not allowed to be destroyed shows that there is a defensive array inside the castle, and the castle itself is an integral part of the array.

Here's a clue.

The hexagram pattern leading to the fourth floor, what does it represent? Is it related to the defensive circle?

This is also a clue.

Electra left enough clues for future generations to crack before entering the fourth floor of the tower, but obviously most people ignored these elements and chose to rush in. Then the consequence can only be to disappear from now on.

Hines obviously also saw some problems, so he chose to rebuild the Hidden Mist Castle on Purgatory Island, perhaps because he wanted to analyze the composition of the formation in terms of architectural layout, but he failed.

Maybe he also studied this six-pointed star circle, but he couldn't find the meaning and function of its existence.

So he didn't dare to go in, he knew that he would not even be able to pass the first test, let alone rushing into the tower later.

As for Xiu Yi, these two clues must be deciphered, otherwise he will die if he enters!

To Huey's regret, there was no record of this in the notes he had obtained about Electra. Moreover, the layout here is also the most powerful defense system left by Electra so far, and its strength may be equivalent to that of the magic circle that trapped the dragon Rita on Purgatory Island.

As soon as he thought of the dragon Rita, a light flashed in Xiu Yi's mind, as if he had missed something.

"No, there must be something missing." Xiu Yi said to himself.

In the face of this legendary alchemy, Xiu Yi suddenly found that his brain, which had always been useful, seemed to be unable to function. Countless pieces of information about Electra flashed through his mind, and all the things he left behind, technology, and everything related to him reappeared in his mind one by one.

I have to say that Xiu Yi is lucky, because in the current world, the only alchemist who knows the most about Electra is probably Xiu Yi. He owns three Electra notebooks, a laboratory, and knows two places with important connections to Electra.

Even so, Huey still couldn't remember what he had missed.

"What did I forget?!" Xiu Yi was a little anxious.

It was as if he stood before cracking the secret door of Electra, but could never find the key.

Xu rarely saw Xiu Yi like this, he rushed over and bit Xiu Yi's trousers, pulling Xiu Yi desperately.

Even the blazing birds flying in the sky swooped down and landed on Xiu Yi, awakening Xiu Yi's sleeping memory with clear and crisp singing.

Xiu Yi stared at Xu Wei anxiously, and then turned around to look at the six-pointed star magic circle, and suddenly realized something in her heart.

"My God, Xu, this is the magic circle that trapped your mother! It's just smaller than the magic circle on Purgatory Island, so I didn't recognize it right away! This is a beast trap! I remembered, Electra has the habit of guarding the laboratory with monsters! Do you remember? Xu, he used your mother to guard the portal, and demon rats to guard the valley laboratory!"

Xiu Yi pointed to the back of the door with one hand: "Behind this door, there must be a high-level monster inside! I don't know what mechanism is there other than this, but just such a monster is probably enough to kill all the alchemists who trespass!"

"Woo!" Xu let out a terrified low cry.

Xu felt scared from the bottom of his heart about the magic circle that trapped his mother.

In that valley laboratory, Electra did not use this kind of spell to trap the demon mouse in the valley, while the dragon Rita was imprisoned by a large beast trap.

Considering this aspect, the monster guarding the tower for Electra must be far superior in strength to the Demon Rat, but inferior to the Demon Dragon. It is very likely to be a top-level monster of the eleventh or twelfth level.

This is already equivalent to the strongest among human beings except Sanctuary.

"Don't worry, Xu." Xiu Yi picked up the little guy and said, "As long as you don't go in, you will be fine. But I'm sure that there are definitely not only monsters guarding the inside, otherwise, even if the people who go in can't be defeated, at least some people can escape. Since no one can come out after entering, it means that there is probably a maze inside. Once you step into this door, you will lose your direction, so no one can escape... No, no, someone escaped."

Xiuyi suddenly remembered what the butler had said.

Someone once left the tower, but he went mad.

Why can a madman leave?

Could it be... an answer appeared in Xiu Yi's mind again.

"It's a soul labyrinth!" He said this with almost certainty.

Because only he knows that besides the well-known identity of an alchemist, Electra also has another identity, that is, a soul mage.

Even the Soul Devouring Ring was discovered from Electra's relics.

In this high tower, Electra first used a castle to create an external defense circle, then used the magic circle that trapped the dragon Rita to trap a high-level monster, and then placed a soul-like labyrinth.

This was the most heavily guarded laboratory in Electra that Huey had ever seen. Of course, this may also be related to the fact that the laboratory itself does not have secrecy, so it can only strengthen its defense.

Even so, Xiu Yi still had a strong curiosity in his heart. He really wanted to know what kind of alchemy technology Electra would use in this laboratory?

Wei Wei thought for a while, and Xiu Yi said to Xu: "I hope there is a way to untie your mother, and I also hope to get some better alchemy. The two obstacles we know in this door are not a problem for me. The eleventh-level monster, even if it is not a black warrior, I am confident to deal with it. As for the soul maze, we have already broken through it once, and there is no suspense after the second time. The problem is that this tower is blocked for four floors. The dangerous mechanism? What are the other two mechanisms? We don’t know, and we can’t force our way in. So it seems that we still have to find a way to crack it from the outside before we can really enter. Of course, I am sure it will not be easy, but no matter how difficult it is, I believe that we are all closer to this secret than any alchemist who has broken into here before..."

Speaking of this, Xiu Yi smiled: "Look, our starting point is higher than others, so there is no need to worry about anything, right?"

A puff of blue smoke flashed past, and Xu, who was held by Xiu Yi, turned into a little boy again.

The little guy put his arms around Xiuyi's neck: "Dad, can you really save Mommy?"

"Yes, I will definitely try my best to rescue her." Xiuyi replied very sincerely: "I don't have the strength now, but maybe after opening this laboratory, I can find a way to break that big formation."

The little guy smiled happily, and he kissed Xiu Yi hard on the face, then snuggled into Xiu Yi's arms and writhed.

With the ability to transform into a human form, the little guy's intelligence is also constantly improving.

For him, perhaps there is no more important thing to set his mother free.

He has always envied little Paddy, because he has a mother who loves him. Many times, when the little guy sees Paddy lying in Nancy's arms, being made to giggle by his mother, he will feel sour, envious, and jealous.

And now, Xiu Yi gave him a promise.

It may not be long before Rita will be free.

"I not only want to rescue your mother, but also give your mother the ability to fly again." For some reason, Xiu Yi suddenly became very confident.

He believes that he will be able to crack the secret here!

Because only he knows Electra best.

"Let's start with the defensive array inside the castle, which is likely to be related to other institutions that we haven't discovered yet," Xiu said.

———————————————

Finding the defensive array inside the castle is quite troublesome.

It's really maddening to have something you know exists and is here and functioning all the time but not find where it is.

In the past, many alchemists tried to start from the outside of the castle and used various methods to test the castle, but the results were all without exception-as long as they dared to attack any main building part of the castle, the magic circle would generate an attack.

Xiu Yi once conducted an experiment with a captured monster, instructing it to destroy a certain city wall.

As a result, when the thick and thick lightning struck down from the sky, it was like a level 7 lightning magic falling straight down in the sky.

The magical beast was smashed into a ball of powder, and a terrible pit with scorched black surrounding appeared on the flat ground.

Facing such an attack, Xiu Yi could only smile wryly.

The power of this inviolable magic circle made by Electra to defend the castle is too abnormal.

With super attack power and super concealment ability, Xiu Yi is almost certain that the real defense ability of this magic circle itself should be very low. No magic circle is invincible, just see if you can find its weakness. So as long as he found the hidden location of the magic circle, Xiu Yi was sure enough to destroy it easily.

In addition, Xiu Yi was very puzzled that such a powerful magic circle was obviously not comparable to the activation magic circle in the valley laboratory. So how can such a powerful magic circle continue to operate for hundreds of years?

Where does its energy supply come from?

There are too many secrets about Electra. There are so many things to think about, but I don't know where to start.

Xiu Yi has been busy for a few days without any clue. Apart from killing some monsters, allowing the fortress servants to witness thrilling lightning strikes again and again, and being more careful in their work, Xiu Yi has gained nothing.

As for Christine, there is a new way to threaten lazy servants: "If you don't work hard again, I will hit you against the wall!"

During this time, the dance organized by Buckler, Christine and others was about to begin.

Xiuyi could only let go of her mind for the time being and concentrate on preparing for the dance.

In addition, he had to find a way to solve the problem of Earl Weston.

To kill Earl Weston, Hugh Iglesel must step forward. So when is the best time to show this identity?

As soon as she thought of returning to her original face and killing people, Xiuyi thought of Raschel. I don't know why, this time Xiu Yi always felt uneasy in her heart.

Raschel's half-smile smile caused Xiu Yi to suddenly feel frightened for no reason.

Maybe it was a mistake to keep him? This is the first time Xiu Yi has such an idea.

Since coming to Winnington, Xiuyi has never felt such a strong sense of crisis, but he doesn't know where the crisis comes from.

—————————————

In the evening, the carriage slowly entered the outskirts of Winnington.

This is a somewhat dilapidated old-fashioned carriage, but the family coat of arms with a special mark is still hung on the carriage.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that the owner of the carriage undoubtedly belongs to a down-and-out nobleman.

In Winnington, such down-and-out nobles are not uncommon.

Many of them yearn to, through some chance, some chance, restore the glory of their ancestors.

There are also some people who worked hard to no avail, and eventually made the entire family disappear in the long river of history.

After the carriage entered Winlington, it walked west along the avenue, and after passing through the bustling commercial district, it came to a small hotel.

A man stepped out of the carriage. The man was less than forty years old, and he was wearing a black dress that was washed a little white. Although the clothes were simple, his manner was quite elegant. He got out of the car first, then stretched his right arm into the compartment. First, an arm stretched out and rested on the man's arm, and then a lady with a skirt stepped out of the carriage.

From the point of view of clothing, the lady's clothing is very simple, but it is decorated with great style and taste. It should be the man's wife, but she is a very charming and beautiful lady.

When the man led his wife out of the carriage, he was about to reach into the carriage again, when a young girl jumped out of it: "Oh, Dad, I don't need your help, I can get down by myself."

This made the man a little unhappy: "Julia, pay attention to your etiquette, don't break the rules. Girls can't jump off the carriage like this, it's too indecent."

"Rules, etiquette, etiquette, these things every day, father, I hate etiquette, very much." The girl pouted unhappily.

This makes the man very angry, but there is nothing he can do about his daughter.

Another boy came down from the carriage: "Julia, you shouldn't make father angry."

"You better shut up, Tammy, I'm not your sister!"

The boy curled his lips: "But why do people always say that you look like my sister, and my mother looks like my sister?"

"Oh, that's because they have blind eyes!" The girl cried out.

"Are you trying to say that mother looks very old?" The young man said sharply.

"No, that's not what I meant!" The girl was a little angry.

"Okay, okay, kids, stop making trouble." The wife who got out of the car earlier went up and grabbed the hands of her two children: "You two don't bicker as soon as you get off the car. I really don't understand what the siblings are up to."

"Maybe it's because my sister is jealous of you. Until now, your mother still has more suitors than your sister." The boy replied humorously.

Julia looked at her brother angrily.

Even the man who got out of the car first was helpless.

Anyway, the son was telling the truth.

Although the daughter inherited her mother's beauty, in terms of demeanor, the wife of the mother of two older children still has the excellent capital to attract countless grown men.

Fortunately, his wife is very good at resisting temptation, and has never been sorry for him, but it is also because of this that he always feels a little guilty towards his wife.

"Stop talking about that," the man said.

They enter the hotel.

The small hotel is very dilapidated, and the wooden floor makes a rattling sound when stepped on, which makes people worry that a big hole will be broken by stepping on it.

The man came to the hotel reception and revealed his identity: "William Harden, two rooms."

"William Harden?" Hearing this name, the waiter at the hotel raised his head and glanced at him, then asked, "From the Knotts and South Wales?"

"Yes."

"Please wait a moment." The waiter quickly took out the passenger registration list for comparison, and then said, "Someone has reserved a room for you in advance."

"Yes I know."

"Then please sign it." The waiter pushed the passenger registration list to Baron Harden.

Baron Harden wrote his name on it casually.

"Are you traveling to Winlington? If so, we can introduce you to the best local tour guide." The waiter asked. It's a means of doing business for them.

"No, a friend has sought a public post for me here, and I won't live here long." Baron Harden replied politely.

"It must be a very good public job." The waiter said casually, he was a little disappointed.

"It's just a job as a teacher, but with a lord marquis," answered the baron.

"It's far better to be around great people than to be in public office. You must have worked hard for it."

"It's the opposite, I didn't do anything about it."

"That's impossible!" cried the waiter.

"Someone took the initiative to help me... I didn't even think it would be like this. Maybe it's because good people get their rewards, maybe it's the god of luck that favored the Harden family, maybe it's the harden family's century-old cultivation that played a role." Harden joked with the waiter without losing his grace.

The man and woman behind him and Mrs. Harden looked at each other and sighed helplessly at the same time.

Along the way, Baron Harden told almost everyone that he was going to Winnington, and someone took the initiative to find him... It's no wonder, for Baron Harden, this was indeed a good opportunity.

"Sometimes I wonder how a man like my father, who has no skills at all, can have continuous good luck." The young man sighed old-fashionedly: "First he married a good woman like his mother, and then had good children like us, and now he can still get a good job."

The beautiful lady pointed her finger at her son and said with a light smile, "Don't speak of your father like that, although he...is really not capable."

The Baron finally came back after completing all the formalities.

"Okay, everyone is tired after a long day of driving today, let's have a good rest first. Tomorrow we are going to visit Mr. Raschel. Anyway, I really have to thank him this time."

On Baron Harden's gratitude list, the gentleman who brought him the gospel was named Jason Raschel.

———————————————

"I don't understand why you invited the Harden couple here." Chakle asked Raschel in a puzzled manner in the Jurisdiction Office.

Long before the Dardanelles came to Winnington, Raschel returned to Winnington one step ahead. In addition to reporting his work to the Director General, the main reason was that Xiu Yi announced that he would come to Winnington, which really made many people nervous for a while.

After returning to Winnington, although he was still responsible for capturing Huey, Raschel's authority had been greatly reduced, and he was no longer the supreme commander. For Raschel, this is not a bad thing, in fact, there is a kind of relief from the burden.

In Raschel's view, a cat that catches a mouse should be very close to a mouse to some extent. Mice are quiet and silent when hiding, and cats also move quietly before catching them, without making any movement beforehand.

In the beginning, the empire was not aware of this, and their movements were too loud, causing a large number of people to discover Raschel's every movement, and eventually his whereabouts were leaked. Not even Raschel himself was aware of the problem.

But as his understanding of Xiu Yi gradually deepened, he finally realized this.

It's like hanging a bell around a cat's neck and letting it go out to catch mice. You can imagine how difficult it is.

That's why Xiu Yi could easily learn the intelligence information of the person who captured him and make a quick response.

But now, Raschel, who let go of everything, has a feeling of hiding in the dark, so that his long-prepared plan can finally surface.

"If you want to catch a mouse, you have to put the bait first." Raschel shrugged and said, "Hugh Igles had served as a servant in Baron Harden's house for three years. During this time, the baron's family treated him very well and even taught him to read and write. It can be said that without the care and education of the Baron's family, Hugh Iglesel would not have been able to thrive on Purgatory Island. To a certain extent, Baron Harden was his savior. And when something happened and they were thrown into prison, you said... Will Hugh Igles find a way to save them?"

Chakle's face changed slightly: "This idea is very poisonous, Raschel. You have to be careful of the consequences by slandering and framing a baron."

"As long as Igleer can be captured, the empire can bear all losses." Raschel replied indifferently.

"Then I don't know if Hugh Iglesel would be so stupid as to jump into the trap you prepared for him." Chakle said indifferently: "I hope you can succeed."

"I'll make it, Chuckley," Raschel replied meaningfully.

After the two chatted for a while, Chakle left with an excuse.

The old hound looked at Chakle's back with a complicated look in his eyes.

He murmured: "Sometimes a bait may not only catch a mouse."
