After closing the door, Tang Bai retracted his body into the soft chair. The red charcoal fire in the fireplace warmed the temperature in the study, blocking the cold air outside. He felt the heat coming from his back.

Feeling the soft and warm touch, Tang Bai swayed on the chair, adjusted to a comfortable angle, and then took out the alchemy notebook that Borgin-Bock handed him.

Gently peeling off the cover of the note with his fingers, Tang Bai opened the note. The first thing that caught his eye was not the blank paper that Tang Bai had imagined, but a lifelike, three-dimensional and realistic figure.

portrait.

The man looked very old, with a high nose bridge, eyes closed, and a peaceful and calm expression, like an old man who had fallen asleep. Tang Bai subconsciously turned his palms back a few times, each time

There is a portrait of such a character on a piece of parchment.

Each character's head inside is different in terms of attire and face. These are all the ancestors of the Bock family who have passed away for hundreds of years.

Turning the parchment back to the first chapter, Tang Bai took out a glass bottle filled with dark red viscous liquid from his arms. Pulling out the cork, a bloody smell hit his nostrils. This was Borgin-Bock's

Blood is also an important key to reawakening this notebook.

Tang Bai turned the mouth of the bottle, and a drop of blood fell down, landing on the figure on the parchment.

Lines of blurry handwriting gradually became clear in the blank space below the portrait as the blood dissolved and soaked. Tang Bai's eyes glanced at the handwriting that suddenly appeared, and he blinked under the soft, dim and bright candlelight.

Lower your eyes.

These writings record the name of the figure and list the most significant alchemical achievements of his life.

After Tang Bai read the lines of writing, he subconsciously flipped to another piece of parchment, and saw that on the other piece of parchment, there were also such small and clear lines of himself. Tang Bai was not in a hurry.

The next step was to flip through the thick parchment carefully and look at the handwriting that emerged.

Suddenly, a line of words that surprised Tang Bai and seemed familiar appeared before his eyes.

"...Creator of the Time-Turner..."

Tang Bai was stunned for a moment, and looked up again to review the appearance of the figure and his name.

Hebrew-Bock! The sixth generation alchemist of the Bock family!

Another drop of blood fell on the parchment. Under Tang Bai's eyes, the still sleeping Hebrew Bock's head slowly opened his eyes as if he was about to wake up, and looked at Tang Bai's eyes.

He yawned loudly under his eyes.

"Well, who are you? I don't feel the blood of the Bok family in you." Hebrew Bok opened his eyes and looked at Tang Bai, frowning slightly: "Could it be that the great Bok family has been removed?

Are all members of the clan dead? Even this important inheritance notebook fell into the hands of someone who is not a member of the Bok family."

"No, the Bock family still exists, and your tribe still exists." Tang Bai put the notes on his knees, placed the palm of his left hand underneath the notes to hold them up, and tilted his head.

"Of course I know that I still have people alive. Without the blood of the Bock family, you can't wake me up. What I want to know is what happened?" Hebrew Bock's temper was obviously a little irritable, Tang Bai

As soon as he finished speaking, he scolded him.

"I made a deal with the current patriarch of the Bok family, Bojin Bok. This notebook is one of the transactions. Of course, the success of the transaction depends on your cooperation. If you don't cooperate,

, maybe I have to call Borgin-Bock and ask him to give you an order. It seems that you can't disobey the request of the patriarch of the Bock family."

Tang Bai fiddled with his chin with his right index finger and said in a calm tone.

"What kind of deal would make that little guy from Borgin willing to agree to your terms?" Hebrew-Bock's tone sounded a little surprised, but more of a disbelief.

"A divine weapon." Tang Bai said the key point of the transaction without any concealment.

"Sacred weapon?" Hebrew Bock's two curved eyebrows immediately frowned. He stared at Tang Bai suspiciously, as if he wanted to confirm whether Tang Bai was lying.

"Yes. An artifact that suits him very well and may allow him to advance his alchemy skills." Everything Tang Bai said was true. Naturally, there was no guilt or any need to act.

Emotion. Therefore, both the tone of his words and the expression on his face were very calm, so that Hebrew Bock could not see the slightest difference.

"What kind of artifact is it?" Hebrew Bock seemed to be a little interested in the artifact Tang Bai was talking about, and asked aloud.

"Poseidon's trident, do you need to take a look?" Tang Bai asked tentatively.

There was a hint of hesitation on Hebrew Bock's face, but he still shook his head and rejected Tang Bai's kindness: "I am just an alchemist who is curious about a certain outstanding alchemical item.

.If I were alive, I would never refuse your proposal. But now I have been dead for hundreds of years."

"Is there any difference between these?" Tang Bai was a little stunned and confused.

"Of course there is a difference. I am just some consciousness and memory of Hebrew Bock. All my knowledge and memories come from Hebrew Bock during his lifetime. I inherited everything he knew and mastered, but I also

That's all." Hebrew-Bock said with a lonely expression.

"Is it some kind of restriction?" Tang Bai seemed to have some vague understanding in his heart.

"Yes, it is a limitation! In addition to being able to remember the faces of you and many descendants of the Bok family, I cannot continue to learn and accommodate other knowledge, nor can I achieve any other alchemical achievements with the existing knowledge.

Everything about me is restricted, and I cannot break free from the shackles he left. I can only know what Hebrew Bock knows, and I can only master what he masters. But I can never surpass him."

Hebrew-Bock shouted loudly: "As an alchemist, it is a huge disaster to be unable to achieve any more achievements in alchemy. Therefore, I have always been interested in those alchemical items that interest me.

We try our best to avoid it, so as not to cause greater regret in our hearts."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Tang Bai could say anything, Hebrew Bock acted as if he didn't want to talk about this topic anymore and quickly moved the topic elsewhere, "Okay, okay! Tell me what you mean. What do you want to say?"

Do you know anything from me, or do you want to learn alchemy from me?"
