Number One Player of Time and Space

This is it.

Although the ending of getting three [Blood Bride Rings] at once was a bit beyond Luo Jie's expectations, it was not a bad thing after all.

Now that I have obtained several key props, I am just missing the last mysterious [? ? ? ? ].

But what exactly could this thing be?

Luo Jie opened the map that was automatically recorded in the visual projection and tried to see if he could find any inspiration on it. Suddenly his eyes stopped on a large shadow in the center of Castlevania that represented "not yet explored".

The name of this area is called "Alchemy Research Building". I happened to bypass this place because I followed the expedition team and took the "Heart of Earth Fire" shortcut.

According to the previous life explorer's guide, it seems to be the research area that Dracula set aside in the castle to study the method of resurrecting life. However, it has long been abandoned due to no results and is now used as a place for various alchemical golems. ghetto.

etc……

Luo Jie suddenly remembered that when he first met Maria, she had used a "key to the mysterious room in the Alchemy Research Building" in exchange for a ride.

The system cannot give out a meaningless prop for no reason. Could it be that mysterious [? ? ? ? 】Is it going to fall on this key?

Guesses can only be guesses, and they must ultimately be verified with facts.

Through the teleportation array of the "Dark Cliff", Luo Jie returned to the Demon City again, followed the "cliff" that was still frozen, passed through the gorgeous and quiet "Central Courtyard", and arrived at the "Alchemy Research Building" .

This place was once the residence and laboratory of the human alchemist captured by Dracula, and traces of the original human life remain everywhere.

A large number of lifelike humanoid alchemical golems stayed in place and remained in standby mode. Being inside them felt like walking into a huge wax museum, with the light and shadow shaking, showing a different kind of gloominess.

Affected by the "Hell Beast" skill, these alchemy puppets did not show any reaction to Luo Jie's invasion. Luo Jie naturally did not bother to tease these lifeless puppets, and walked straight through them, heading towards "Alchemy". Deeper into the "Research Building".

Just as he passed an inconspicuous wall, the surface of the [Key to the Mysterious Room in the Alchemy Research Building] suddenly lit up with a layer of faint blue fluorescence.

"So it's here?"

Luo Jie released the light ball of [Lighting Technique], and used the bright light to search carefully on the wall full of complicated stone carvings, and finally found a very hidden keyhole in the mouth of a monster statue.

Insert, turn.

The stone wall in front of them collapsed with a rumble, creating a gap that could allow people to pass through.

Inside the wall is a secret small laboratory, covering an area of ​​less than fifty square meters.

The most eye-catching one is the experimental bench in the middle, which is extremely crude to modern eyes and is piled with a large number of wires and metal originals.

A giant over three meters tall, with a strong build, an ugly face, and rough sutures covering his skin is currently being firmly fixed on the test platform by layers of chains and belts.

Luo Jie recognized the identity of this ugly giant at a glance.

Frankenstein.

An artificial man created by the mad scientist Dr. Frankenstein.

In the fantasy world of "Van Helsing", this plot NPC is a major combat force that can help players fight against Count Dracula. Its defense is so high that it can resist the attacks of dozens of werewolves without falling, which is quite good. A human shield NPC.

However, Luo Jie also knew another way to use this "Frankenstein".

He walked to the experimental table and pulled the device opening lever next to it.

In an instant, the circuits and coils in the entire secret laboratory continued to shoot out clusters of dazzling sparks.

Boom——!

A deafening thunder exploded outside, seemingly hitting the top of Castlevania. The huge castle shook violently in the terrifying thunder.

An arm-thick electric light instantly flowed into the laboratory along the exposed wires, and the entire experimental platform was enveloped in a dazzling white light.

[You activate Frankenstein's experimental stand, and "Frankenstein" is about to wake up. 】

When the electric current that was running around the room dissipated, Luo Jie jumped onto the experimental table, stabbed the ugly head of "Frankenstein" without hesitation, tore open the sutures on its chest with his bare hands, and took out the A cylindrical glass vessel with lightning flashing inside.

[You have obtained the hidden prop "Resurrection Thunder", "Frankenstein" is dead. 】

【Thunder of Resurrection】

Type: special props

Quality: EX

Introduction: Frankenstein's source of life. It can be used to resurrect pet beasts, puppets or follower NPCs that died due to failed enhancement or transformation, and force the completion of the original enhancement or transformation. (For use in this world only)

All the clues were connected at this moment.

Obviously from the beginning, the transformation of [Mollica's Relic] could not be a perfect success. The death of the transformed NPC was almost inevitable, and the only way to solve this problem was the life core of "Frankenstein" - [Resurrection] Thunder].

Luo Jie patted his forehead. He should have thought of this earlier.

In the original work of "Van Helsing", Dracula chases Frankenstein in order to use the "Resurrection Thunder" in his body to activate the stillborn offspring of the Blood Bride.

This is actually an extremely obvious hint in itself.

However, due to the intrusion of the world view of "Castlevania", he subconsciously ignored that this was essentially the world of "Van Helsing", and naturally he also forgot about the extremely critical prop "Thunder of Resurrection".

Suddenly, [Supersensory Intuition] issued a rapid heartbeat alarm, and Luo Jie jumped to the side without hesitation.

Swish——!

A bloody sword light passed almost close to his scalp, cutting the metal experimental table and "Frankenstein's" body into two neat halves, and plowing a close path on the ground along the way. The two-finger deep groove hit the laboratory shelf and knocked over bottles and cans all over the floor.

"Oh? You reacted very quickly... It seems that my three blood brides died in your hands."

A black shadow that looked like a huge bat fell from the sky and turned into a silver-haired middle-aged man with extraordinary bearing.

The real final boss of Castlevania - the vampire Count Dracula.

Sure enough, hidden tasks are not that easy to complete...

Luo Jie put the [Thunder of Resurrection] back into the storage space with his backhand, looked at Dracula calmly, and chuckled: "What? Sir Earl, are you here to take revenge on me?"

Dracula lifted up his iconic long cloak, spread out his hands like an elegant noble, and said gracefully: "Oh, no, no, don't get me wrong, those three blood brides are just for me to kill a long time. I can create as many dependents as I want. In contrast, the three-headed hell dog you killed is more difficult to find... Well, to put it straight to the point, I actually just want it. The bottle with the thunderbolt you just got, and the remains of Molika."
