Mystic Dominator

Finding an unlocked room on the first floor, Ronald and Kang Si easily flipped inside. In the dark room, only the sofa and low table can be vaguely recognized, it seems to be an idle

"Ro... Ronald, let's look in this room first!"

Standing in the dark room, Kance was still not as courageous as Ronald. He looked at the light from the keyhole of the door with some fear, and there was no logic in his words, as if he just wanted to delay time .

And Ronald, who came in earlier, had already put his ear on the door, listening carefully to the movement in the corridor outside.

Sensing the voice from Kang Si behind him, he immediately raised his finger to cover his mouth, and said in a low voice as much as possible:

"Shh-"

"There is movement outside."

Kance lost any thought of speaking for a moment.

At this moment, the room the two of them were in was so quiet that no breathing could be heard.

Keep it so quiet.

Ronald finally heard what was going on outside.

Two groups of footsteps with different rhythms came from far to near, and finally disappeared in the distance after passing through the corridor on the first floor. During this time, intermittent conversations can be heard.

"You... Master, he is... Let's get off work early tomorrow?"

"Who knows..., anyway, our work is much easier than those workers!"

"But it's rare for the master to entertain guests so late tonight."

"I heard that the lord brought a book written by a Scotsman. It was just published this year. It seems that it can make a lot of money?"

"You can make money by reading this book... then we...?"

"...and illiterate, thinking about this..."

"..."

The people outside went from staying away to disappearing, but Ronald didn't change his posture.

Leaning against the door with his brows tightly furrowed, he was thinking about the conversation between the two just now, and he had already begun to speculate about everything that might have happened in his mind.

After all, this is the original test,

A pure illusion made of original scriptures.

What can be ignored under normal circumstances, Ronald can't ignore the past now, after all, this kind of thing may be the key to the trial.

At the same time, Kang Si, who was still lowering his voice, finally couldn't help but asked again in a low voice after several suppressed breaths:

"Ronald, what's going on now, is he still there?"

"People are gone, let's continue."

After answering Kang Si's small question, Ronald then carefully opened the door to reveal a gap, and then quietly observed the situation in the corridor.

within sight.

The situation in the office building was exactly the same as what Ronald had deduced before.

Although it looks brightly lit outside, there are actually very few people in the building, and no one passes by in the current corridor.

Refer to the conversation between the two who just passed by here...

If I guessed right, the owner of the factory, Matthew Bolton, was entertaining some distinguished guest, so most of the human resources were called to his vicinity.

After winking at Kang Si behind him, Ronald immediately walked ahead and left the room.

"Kang Si, remember not to be afraid when you meet people, just treat yourself as a subordinate of a guest who comes here, and don't show a guilty expression. If the blueprint of the steam engine is placed here, it should be an office or something Where we are, we can always find it if we look slowly.”

"I... I see."

Kong Si nodded with a bitter face to express his understanding, and then followed Ronald who was walking in front.

Now that it was over, he really had no other choice.

Now that he has embarked on the path of theft, it will be a matter of time before he faces such a situation.

As for now...

Ronald at least seemed trustworthy.

Listen to his orders first, and then see how the situation changes.

What followed was the slow exploration process of the two walking around the office building. Under Ronald's prudent and bold command, they managed to check all the checkable rooms on the first floor in only twenty minutes.

Regarding the drawings of the steam engine, it turned out to be the most unsatisfactory nothing.

Although there are things related to steam engines in the office building, they are far from the actual blueprints. At most, Matthew's stored letters mention his vision for the future.

Of course, this process is still somewhat special to Ronald.

After identifying letters and some written records, he figured out the time node where the illusion was located.

The year is 1776.

An important year that is enough to make people think deeply.

If the inference in Ronald's heart is true, then the malice towards those who undergo the test in this original test is almost too high. Rather than saying it was a trial of the original scriptures, it would be better to say that this is a deadly trap for killing people.

Just when Ronald's face became more and more ugly, and he began to approach the stairs leading to the second floor, Kang Si, who had just made up his mind, couldn't stand it anymore.

This guy possesses the mentality of a thief in perfect stead.

At the end of the twenty minutes of exploration, the courage he had only mustered up to break the jar was gone.

With his voice trembling with fear, Kang Si continued:

"Ronald, shall we continue?"

"There are a lot of people up there!"

Although Ronald had a bad face, he immediately rejected Kance's retreat:

"Let's keep looking! Think about it, the reward this time is a full thirty pounds. How long does it take ordinary people to work to save such wealth? Kangsi, don't give up the important opportunity in front of you because of timidity."

"If you can get this money, will people still laugh at your experience of being kicked out of the factory? As long as you have money, all this will no longer be a problem!"

"..."

Ronald's words directly hit Kang Si's psychological weakness.

He froze in place, his eyes changing and changing.

In the end, the thief's expression stabilized, and while he passed Ronald's position and walked towards the stairs, he said viciously at the same time:

"Okay, Ronald, I listen to you! Let's continue to the second floor!"

"If we can't find it on the second floor, let's go to the third floor and look for it. Tonight, no matter what, we have to get the blueprint of the water boiling and steam engine..."

Suddenly, Kang Si's expression froze on his face.

At this moment, he was walking in front of the stairs, and then turned his head to watch Ronald behind him speak harshly. But within the line of sight of Constance, Ronald, who was originally calm, suddenly became extremely serious, and his pupils were still tightly locked at the top of the stairs behind him.

As if sensing something, Kang Si stiffly turned his head and looked behind him.

Just above the stairs, a little girl in servant clothes was standing there, looking at herself blankly.

"Choo Choo Choo--"

Suddenly, an even more unexpected turn of events occurred.

At this moment, outside the office building, the cry of a nightingale suddenly sounded.

Three people going to another building...

Did they succeed? !
