Extraordinary Puppet Master

After leaving the experimental building, Carlin quickly returned to the apartment, hastily solved the lunch problem, and then began to meditate deeply in the study.

When he finished his meditation and opened his eyes, it was just past three o'clock.

After letting out a satisfied sigh, Karin checked the results of his meditation and nodded with satisfaction.

Opening the "Complete Collection of Commonly Used Rituals" and reading the contents of "Changing Temperature Barrier" again, after memorizing it, Karin came to the alchemy room on the second floor.

‘Blue gray stone, winter night grass, brass. I have all the materials. Let’s start decorating. It’s enough to eat bread and bacon every day! ’

Karin finely ground the required materials, and finally baked them into a ball of blue liquid in the crucible.

After pouring the liquid into the porcelain bowl, Karin took a special paintbrush and then went to the storage room where the food was stored.

In the room, he pulled a few strings to hang pieces of dried bacon.

After counting his food reserves, Karin began to arrange the ceremony.

He dipped his paintbrush in blue liquid and carefully drew four patterns on the four walls of the room.

Then he took out a silver knife and carved on the floor in the center of the room.

More than half an hour passed after such a tossing. Karin looked at the array pattern on the floor and poured the blue liquid in the porcelain bowl into the groove.

The liquid gradually solidified after filling the grooves, and a blue array pattern was completed, leaving only twenty circular grooves arranged around the pattern.

Karin took out a spiritual gold coin from his body and stuffed it into the groove tightly.

After doing this, he opened the "Encyclopedia of Common Rituals" and compared the rituals in the storeroom with the illustrations in the book.

After checking again and again and finding that there was indeed nothing wrong, Karin closed the book with confidence.

As a difficult-to-pronounce ancient Tyrannic incantation came out of his mouth, the temperature in the room began to slowly drop.

When the temperature dropped to below zero, Carlin couldn't help but shiver.

The ceremony was a great success and the storage room was really starting to cool down.

The energy source of the entire ceremony is the inlaid spiritual gold coin. If the five blue patterns in the room are not destroyed, it can probably last for more than half a year.

If you want to adjust the temperature, just replace the grooves of the spirit gold coin. The twenty grooves represent a temperature between minus five degrees and twenty-five degrees.

Karin couldn't help shivering due to the cold and left the storage room.

He looked at the layout of the rooms in his apartment and wanted to install a central air conditioner that would be warm in winter and cool in summer, but he gave up as soon as he thought about the cost.

The amount of materials needed to set up the ceremony was calculated based on the volume of the space. It was okay to only set up a cold room, but having a central air conditioner was still a bit tight given Carlin's net worth.

Anyway, Wayne City is located in a coastal area, with an average annual temperature of 7 to 18 degrees Celsius, so there is no need for air conditioning.

Then Carlin returned to the study and began to chew on the four newly acquired tomes.

Practice casting spells while reading a book.

The four hours from 3pm to 7pm were planned by Carlin as his own alchemy time.

After his level reaches a certain level, he will try to refine his own marionette. Even if he gets back Westmin's marionette, he will only use it as a transitional one.

It is easier for a secret puppet master to design and refine his own secret puppet.

No matter how good Westmin's Secret Puppet is, Carlin still has to put in the effort to transform it.

Karin's potion refining skills are not good yet, so he spends the extra four hours reading books. He will also make several potions later.

No matter how good your quality is, you must show it to others.

The amount of materials he consumes every day can be estimated by the amount of alchemical waste.

Otherwise, it would be too weird for him to only attend class every day and not practice.

Apart from the sound of turning books, there was only the sound of spells being cast in the study.

The four spells didn't make much noise. Carlin only had to pay attention to his position when casting the force field impact.

At the same time, the scene of the murder on the street at the dock was also controlled by the police.

"Rooney, a very poor fellow, did a pretty good job as the leader of a small group of dockworkers.

With his sharp tongue and nimble hands and feet, many gentlemen in Midtown are willing to hire his small group of nine people to do some rough work, and he is quite famous in the dock area.

My staff have asked a few people and Rooney has not had a beef with anyone recently.

Damn it! Could it be that the murderer was an impromptu murder? I hate this kind of case where an acquaintance has no motive for committing the crime! "

Mingus, who was wearing a police officer's uniform, looked at Rooney's body and explained something, and couldn't help but complain for a moment.

However, he immediately realized his gaffe and apologized to a young man next to him.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Charlotte, I'm just too excited. Someone is so bold to kill someone directly on the street. I will investigate this case to the end and won't let that crazy villain go unpunished!"

Mingus was actually very surprised. Leaving aside the case, when he arrived at the scene, he saw Charlotte Moriarty checking the body.

At that time, the police officer under his command wanted to drive the person away, but the person directly told him his first and last name and said that he was a detective.

Mingus's attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees.

Everyone who has lived in Wayne City for more than thirty years knows the surname Moriarty. Only Mrs. Wally's family has the surname Moriarty, and the second son is also named Charlotte.

He is still very discerning. He knows that Charlotte's brother is Mycroft, the director of the Kingdom's Security Bureau.

Theoretically, the direct superiors of the high-spirited men of the Wayne City Secret Service Office at the Steam City Headquarters are also under the control of Charlotte's brother Mycroft.

Mingus knew that he was just a small second-level police detective, at least he didn't have the qualifications to criticize the second young master of the Moriarty family.

So Charlotte intervened in this case naturally, and at this time, his brain was running at full speed.

"Although what Mingus said just now was a bit perfunctory, he was actually not wrong in saying that the murderer was bold.

Due to lack of manpower, the police can only ensure good public security in Shangcheng and Zhongcheng districts, but there is always a set of law and order in other places.

In my impression, if a body is found in a dark corner of downtown at night, as long as it is not a person with a sensitive identity, the police in Wayne City will not pay attention to it, and if someone reports the crime, it will only be done hastily and perfunctorily.

But the dock area is different. There is a mixture of good and bad people here, and there are also some upper-class gentlemen and ladies living here. It is different from some lawless places in the lower city.

And he still killed people directly during the day, without caring that there were more than a hundred living people around him.

This is completely a slap in the face of policemen like Mingus. I have only left here for eight years. Have the desperadoes in Wayne City become so rampant? "
