Meet the principal

The soil gradually dissolves in the solvent, releasing a psychedelic smoke-like substance that swirls in an orange-yellow solution.

A little excitement of magic overflowed from the beaker. Phyllis' hand gently brushed over the beaker. She seemed to smell the smell and nodded with satisfaction.

"Sure enough, many alchemy experiments have indeed been carried out in Aunt Celia's villa. The soil here has absorbed a lot of the magic left in the air. Even if those plants are planted, it is difficult to cover it up."

There are several different kinds of flowers planted in Aunt Celia's backyard. These beautiful flowers decorate the yard, but people who are familiar with magic know that these plants are also used as materials for many alchemical potions and have a certain magical power. Precipitation, but few people may be able to further realize that these seemingly randomly planted magical plants are actually intended to cover up the traces of alchemical experiments condensed in the soil.

It's a pity that it was affected by those magic plants after all, and Phyllis couldn't analyze what alchemy experiments were carried out in that villa.

"Definitely, there are several rooms in the villa that are clearly designed with the alchemy workshop in mind."

Behind Phyllis, Hellaison said calmly. It can be seen from the urban planning and design drawings that this villa has undergone many renovations, but the design of several rooms seems ordinary at first glance, but you can think about it carefully. You will find that it was renovated for the alchemy workshop. What is certain is that alchemy experiments must have been conducted in Aunt Celia's villa.

"I originally thought that my father was an old man who was obsessed with money, but now it seems that he is also very well-informed about Mo Feng."

Phyllis took out a cigarette from the tin box, struck a match, lit it, and took a deep breath.

"Macon Hydracia, I didn't expect Aunt Celia to be involved with this guy."

On the other side of the table is a stack of information, with the top photos visible.

One of them is a man with dark blue hair, wearing a mage's robe with four gold edges on the cuffs. He is reading a few books and walking on the road. This photo should be taken secretly, and the person in it, if Reiner You will be surprised to see it, because this is the same Macon Hydahia who took a photo with Aunt Selia in the hotel.

Another piece of information clearly shows that Macon Hydashia is a member of the Serpent of Chaos, and may even be an extremely core figure.

"Raven also has a disgusting smell on his body.

Could it be that he was also bewitched by the people of the Serpent of Chaos? "

Phyllis frowned slightly. She knew that her eldest brother Raven was not as cowardly as he seemed, but she did not expect that he would actually get together with those lunatics.

"Definitely, Master Raven has an obvious aura of the Serpent of Chaos, which is similar to Master Celia's reaction."

Hellaison replied, without the slightest hint of emotion.

"They come to contact the Iain Gray family one after another, and even directly participate in the fight for the heir this time. What do those guys want to do?"

Phyllis blew out a smoke ring, and white smoke surrounded her, giving her a hazy feeling.

"Anyway, we have to find traces of Macon first. He may have used Aunt Celia to accomplish something, and he also got Raven. The Chaos Snake around him is probably here to investigate this matter."

After coming to a conclusion, Felice frowned slightly and thought of her younger brother who had a huge contrast between before and after.

"As for Reiner, he doesn't seem to know anything yet. He just hopes nothing will happen to him."

Hearing Phyllis's whisper, Helleson stood silent behind her.

...

When we arrived at Aunt Selia's house, the afternoon sun hit the side of the building, leaving a deep shadow on the ground. The villa on one side was bright and sunny, while the villa on the other side was dim. A strong contrast was formed.

Butler Chandler stood in the lobby, waiting for what seemed like a long time.

There were obvious signs of rummaging in the house, and the placement of many things was messier than what Reiner had seen before. It seemed that the second brother Haner had turned the place upside down, but as one can imagine, there was no Any gain.

Reiner first walked through the hall, went to the backyard, took some soil samples for experiments, and quickly came to the conclusion that alchemy experiments were indeed conducted in this room.

"According to the descriptions of people around him, Macon has the habit of closing the door on weekends. Some people also witnessed him going out in a carriage. It was contacted that there was no alchemy workshop in his house. I think he used experiments conducted in Aunt Celia's house. .”

"The two of them have known each other for a long time, before Aunt Celia left Ian Graeburn's house. What consensus did they reach early on, and then met again in Olmsted?"

"The potions in Macon are more effective than others. The method of mixing them is more advanced. He has extremely high alchemy skills. It is impossible for Aunt Celia to just make potions to treat colds. These are all used to hide one's identity. of."

"After Aunt Celia's death, Macon immediately erased all traces of the alchemy laboratory in the house and then left Olmsted. Was it because he lost his supporters? Or maybe there was a conflict between the two. Macon killed Aunt Celia and then ran away?”

Reiner repeatedly deduced the information he had learned so far in his mind. He and Claire arrived at a place that might have been an alchemy laboratory. It is now two guest rooms.

Reiner had not studied this place carefully before, but now he had a target. He soon discovered that in the corner of the house, the wall covered by fresh paint had traces of corrosion from alchemical potions. This was only the result of frequent contact with the relevant potions. Only people can see the difference.

He and Claire found some more traces, and it was basically certain that these two rooms were originally alchemy laboratories.

After confirming this, many doubts can be solved, and most of them are in line with Reiner's speculation.

Macon and Aunt Celia met many years ago. Macon's research aroused Aunt Celia's interest, and they kept in touch. Later, Aunt Celia left the family and settled in Olmsted, and Macon also Here, on the surface there is no connection between the two, but in fact, Macon has been conducting alchemy experiments at Aunt Celia's house.

This kind of life lasted until half a month ago, when Aunt Celia, because of some special reasons, Macon erased the traces of her coming here and left Olmsted, and her father Winchester may have been to some extent. The emperor knew these things, so he asked the successor candidates who were away from home to gather together to look for traces left by Macon.

But thinking of this, Reiner felt a little unnatural again. He thought about it for a while and finally didn't mention it, but kept it secretly in his mind.
