Demon Royal Family

"The Secret History Pavilion stores 3,726,000 books. Analyzing history from all aspects, you can find many lost and unique books. Except for the blank three hundred years, basically every period of history has something to say. Record." The receiving scholar sounded proud.

In front of Ivo is a huge library, with rows of bookshelves stretching into the distance. The special smell of old books makes people's minds calm down involuntarily. Looking at the works of countless scholars over the thousands of years, even His breathing became lighter subconsciously, and Ivo respected knowledge itself from the bottom of his heart.

Only knowledge and power are worthy of everyone's awe.

The receiving scholar was very satisfied with Ivo's attitude and couldn't help but smile sincerely, "Mr. Ivo, what kind of books do you need?"

Ivo shook his head, "I want to see for myself."

"Okay, please help yourself." The receptionist nodded.

Ivo walked around casually, counting the positions of the bookshelf in his mind. The black lion was talking about the seventh book on the fourth floor of the 1,230th bookshelf.

After walking for a while, he met an unexpected acquaintance, who turned out to be Geng Lei.

Geng Lei was rummaging in the bookshelf with a depressed look on his face, as if he had encountered another problem. Hearing footsteps, he turned around and saw Ivo, his face fell, and he snorted: "It's you again."

"Master Geng Lei." Although Ivo didn't like Geng Lei's bad temper, he was very interested in his research and asked, "Have you encountered a new problem?"

"Yes, the golem can only be transformed by using [Shaping Ooze]. There is no other material that can replace it. Although the golem can be transformed, its body shape has not changed. This... Wait, why do I have to tell you so much? ."

When someone asked about his research, Geng Lei subconsciously answered a few questions. Then he remembered that Ivo was "a guy with as little vision as a fool in the alchemy field" who had doubted him. He immediately stopped talking and glared at Ivo. "What are you doing in the Secret History Pavilion?"

Ivo turned his eyes and smiled: "I am very interested in your research, master, so I want to find out some history of Mimics."

Hearing this, Geng Lei lost a lot of his anger. Seeing that Ivo was a little more pleasing to his eyes, he hummed and said: "If you want to know the secret history of the Mimic, it is recorded in the history books of the Dark Ages, but don't have too much hope. Basically, It was just a mention."

Ivo thought for a while and suddenly said: "My name is Ivo Harricon. I am the Duke of Lassese in the North Continent and the chief deacon of the Pope. I want to fund your research."

Geng Lei made a move, with a look of surprise on his face. He looked at Ivo formally for the first time, and said in an excited tone, "You, are you telling the truth?"

Ivo nodded, "You can go to Lasces Hall to ask about my identity. I am really interested in your research."

Geng Lei looked in disbelief. At this moment, he was moved by the idea of ​​a scholar dying for his confidant. Alchemy research is a money-burning project as famous as magic research. He has been studying the subject of Mimics for twelve years. His status as an alchemist master attracted many wealthy people to invest, but the progress was very slow and there was no results for a long time, which made the investors tired.

Geng Lei tried his best to explain how groundbreaking his theoretical progress was, but he could not impress those investors who only saw superficial benefits. Making money to continue his research was also the reason why Geng Lei's temper became increasingly grumpy. From then on, he despised those powerful people.

There was no one to fund the research, and the research required a lot of money, making progress even slower. He had suffered enough from the pain of having no money, so Geng Lei's importance to Ivo suddenly rose to a status second only to Mimic's research. He suddenly regretted his previous He treated Ivo rudely and rubbed his hands, fearing that Ivo would regret it.

Ivo pretended not to notice Geng Lei's embarrassment and asked: "Master Geng Lei, since I want to support you, I need to know your exact progress."

Geng Lei struggled for a while and slowly revealed the truth.

The transformation of the Mimic is really unbelievable. Geng Lei has many theoretical speculations, but the only result he has actually produced is the Transformation Golem. The principle of the Transformation Golem is [Shaping Ooze] and a rough transformation alchemy circuit, which is far from the real transformation. The Mimic was a million miles away.

Mimicry is a deep transformation of life, the deepest sublimation of blood and body, the inclusiveness of merging animal blood, and the particularity of deformation and increasing power. To achieve all this is equivalent to creating a new race. The shape-shifting golem is just a For an inanimate individual, even the ability to shape-shift is a trick.

After finishing speaking, Geng Lei looked at Ivo uneasily. His dignity as an alchemist master did not allow him to lie about his progress in order to defraud funding. He knew that his research had lasted for more than ten years, but in fact he had not even entered the door. He was worried that Ivo After knowing the truth, they will give up the idea of ​​funding.

Unexpectedly, Ivo's face remained normal and he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. I believe that with my funding, the master will definitely make breakthrough progress."

"Why, why did you do that?" Geng Lei was completely moved by the funding that didn't care about the results at all.

Ivo laughed, "Because I am a very rich man."

"Why is it so special?" Geng Lei asked curiously.

Ivo raised his thumb and smiled, his white teeth flashing brightly, "I am extremely rich!"

"..."

The Chamber of Commerce under his banner is developing rapidly, and even he carries a huge sum of more than 140 million Benas. Geng Lei's research may be a hidden danger for Mimics, or it may be an opportunity. Ivo is prepared for a rainy day and simply uses money. To impress Geng Lei, as long as he becomes a sponsor, he is equivalent to mastering Geng Lei's progress. Ivo still remembers that he is burdened with three major curses. Maybe he will let Geng Lei know that the Mimic still exists in the future and let him study to crack the curse. Methods.

After confirming the funding, Geng Lei attached great importance to Ivo and took the initiative to introduce Ivo to books that recorded the Mimics.

"The Poem of the Night is the most authoritative chronicle of the Age of Darkness, Blood and Freedom is a historical novel from the perspective of fighting against vampires, and Wolf Eyes is about the history of werewolves..."

Ivo flipped through it and found that the records of the Mimics in these books were superficial. There was no mention of the three major curses of the Mimics or the wars of the Mimics. Genocide" summary.

Finally arriving at the 1,230th bookshelf, Ivo stopped and glanced at the bookshelf. Half of the books were not in common languages ​​and were in various languages, including Ancient Odin, Old Norse, and Elvish. Language and so on.

"This bookshelf is filled with incompletely translated books," Geng Lei explained.

Ivo responded casually, looking at the seventh book from left to right on the fourth floor, his eyes suddenly shrank.

A small, palm-thick book stood there quietly, with "Gregangor's Alchemy Notes" written clearly on the black cover.

Ivo finally understood why there was no record of this book on the list of books guarded by scholars.

Because the font of this book is a language that has never been circulated in the world.

Mimicry!

A book that no one can understand except the Mimic!
