The career of an evil alchemist that started with picking up a crazy sword girl

After that, Lan Jie took the cup and went around looking for someone to chat with.

He was also good at this. He could get some information by chatting here and there.

Lu Lin continued to guard Li Mi Xuanfan.

Jack Zhengyi didn't dare to do unnecessary things, and he didn't run around. Like Lu Lin, he also went to guard the iron pillar to enjoy his meal.

At this moment, Silly, who had been tasting desserts before, turned back, came to sit next to the two of them, and whispered in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "Found it."

"So fast?" Lu Lin raised his eyebrows.

"Actually, it's quite obvious. There is magic power supply equipment over there in the kitchen," Silly said. "The source of magic power is underground, but I'm not sure where it comes from."

"Well, that's enough for now," Lu Lin nodded, "Let's talk about something else now, don't be too eye-catching."

Chapter 163: Are you stuck here?

The breakfast banquet seems to last until ten in the morning. Although the dishes are rich and freshly made desserts are constantly being replenished, Lu Lin, a group of people who came here around seven in the morning, must stay here until ten o'clock. , it’s really not reasonable.

The people here obviously took this into consideration, so around eight o'clock, a gate in the garden was opened, and service staff on site began to guide tourists who had finished breakfast to enter and go to other areas.

Lu Lin waited until Li Mi and Tiezhu were full, and then naturally followed the guidance and left the breakfast venue.

After coming out of the breakfast venue, everyone came to a larger garden square. There was a clear pool in the square, and in the center of the pool, there was a huge statue.

The statue depicts a middle-aged uncle with a kind face, covered in brocade robes, with his hair combed back, his eyes bright, and a soft smile on his face.

According to the introduction, the person carved in this statue is none other than the city lord here.

But the sculpture is still a sculpture after all, and it is an image that has been beautified, so Lu Lin just took a cursory look, memorized the face of the sculpture, and stopped focusing on the sculpture.

There are four roads in four directions on the four sides of the statue or pool. One road is the direction Lu Lin and others came from, connecting to the garden where the breakfast banquet was arranged. The other three directions connect three different places to go.

I heard that it is directly opposite a hot spring swimming pool. On the left side is a huge building, which is said to be the main hall here. It is said that there are constant drama, song and dance performances inside. There are also some independent small rooms in the main hall for people to rest. At the same time, it is said that there are Can summon some performances and services.

On the right is the busiest place at present, a smaller building called the front hall.

The outside of the front hall is filled with huge glass floor-to-ceiling windows, and you can see the scene inside at a glance. It is full of various chess and card tables. To put it bluntly, it is a casino.

The place is not big, but apart from the fact that it is not at sea, it has all three elements of a yacht.

Lu Lin thought about it and decided to go to the casino with the most people and the easiest place to get information.

Li Mi naturally followed Lu Lin.

Jack Zhengyi was a little repelled by places like casinos, so he planned to go to the main hall to watch the performance. He happened to be afraid that Tie Zhu would cause trouble in the casino because he was too conspicuous, so he took Tie Zhu to the main hall with him.

As for Silly, she felt that since there were people on both sides, she wanted to go to the swimming pool to have a look.

Lu Lin thought about it and felt that going to the swimming pool alone might cause some trouble, so she asked Lan Jie to follow her there.

Then, at about half past eleven, the three groups of people gathered by the pond as agreed to exchange relevant information.

"The notice I received over there is to have lunch on the second floor of the main hall. How about you?" Jack Zhengyi asked first, intending to confirm whether the lunch locations were the same.

"It's the same over there," Lu Lin nodded, "but some people say that if you don't want to go, you can just order food at the casino."

"No one informed us over there, but food was prepared directly on site," Silly said, taking out a box of lunch. "I bought one and brought it over. By the way, this thing will be put there directly." Delivered to you on the water.”

Lu Lin took the lunch box and looked at its appearance.

The lunch box is made to look like it is suitable for floating on the water. When you open it, you will find a variety of snacks that are suitable to be picked up whole by hand and eaten in one bite. There will be no residue and no soup or water. It is obvious to see Coming out, it was specially designed for the swimming pool.

"There is nothing wrong with the food itself, but if it is prepared in this way, these three facilities should be open all day before the dinner begins," Lu Lin said, "In other words, these three places should be the main places where tourists spend time during the day. Gone somewhere.”

"So, are there any bankrupt tourists at the casino?" Silly asked.

"Yes, there are always people who are eager to gamble," Lu Lin said, "but these people will only be kicked out of the casino, and it seems they can stay in the other two areas."

"Ah, I said that from time to time there will be a few dejected guys going crazy in the cold bath here," Silly said, "It's strange, does it mean that you won't get hurt if you simply gamble and run out of money?"

"You don't have to spend money on food and accommodation here. At the casino, tourists even open their own casinos to play. They don't exchange chips and just use gold and silver coins to play. It really doesn't look like they rely on the casino's head count," Lu Lin said. "But I did notice that the person who has been playing in the casino the longest has only played here for two weeks."

"Two weeks..." Jack Zhengyi frowned, "Two weeks ago was the 8th of this month. Well, it's a bit subtle."

"It's hard to say if there is any pattern in time, unless this date has some special meaning to them," Lu Lin said, "but it is certain that they do clean up tourists regularly. At least I didn't find any tourists who came here two weeks ago."

"The results of my investigation are similar. There are many people in the hot spring who said that they came here more than ten days ago," Si Li also nodded, "but I think the opportunity for them to clean up tourists may not be related to time, but to the number of people."

"How do you say it?" Jack Zhengyi asked.

"Dinner," Si Li said, "Although I provide lunch, I don't provide dinner. It is said that everyone must be present at the dinner because the city lord will be there."

"I suspect that this dinner is not just for eating, it may also have the function of counting the number of tourists. It may be that when the number of tourists reaches a certain number, they will do something."

"Well, speaking of this, if this is the case, then if someone sees this, every time they feel that there are enough people at the dinner, they will sneak out of the city and come back after a few days. In this way, can they always be tourists here?" Lan Jie interrupted suddenly, "Anyway There is no restriction on tourists leaving here, right? "

"You are just fixing a bug here," Lu Lin twitched his mouth, "Doing this is equivalent to telling the people here, have you guessed the secret here?"

"But it really doesn't violate the rules," Lan Jie scratched his head, "They shouldn't be able to do it, right?"

"Stupid, they don't need to do anything extra," Si Li reached out and knocked Lan Jie's head, "If someone really does this, they just need to clear the tourists in advance, and this kind of self-righteous person will naturally be finished. They are the ones who make the rules, and you actually expect to defeat them with the rules?"

"Ah...that's right," Lan Jie scratched his head.

"However, I think there may be such people," Jack Zhengyi expressed a different opinion, "If there are few such people and they act very low-key, this place may not care."

"Besides, we only observed for a long time to come to this conclusion. Even if tourists have different perspectives from us, there should always be some smart people who noticed this."

"If we can really find such a person, the other party may have some information we need."

"Well... it makes some sense," Lu Lin touched his chin, "Then, if there is such a person, then the most likely place to stay is..."

"Gamblers will lose everything sooner or later, and hot springs are not Maybe after spending so much time every day, I get tired of watching dramas," Si Li said, looking towards the main hall, "I remember there is a small room for people to rest in the main hall, right? Does this small room provide ordering service?"

"I went in to find out, there is a meal delivery service, but it seems that only snacks can be delivered," Jack Zhengyi said, "Maybe they are worried about the poor hygiene."

"In other words, if there are such people, they have to go to the cafeteria for lunch?" Lu Lin touched his chin, "Well... Anyway, let's go to eat first, just pay attention to this matter, find it if you can't find it, it doesn't matter if you can't find it, anyway, everything goes according to plan."

Chapter 164 Resource utilization rate, it really depends on necromancy

Like the breakfast, the lunch is still held in the form of a banquet buffet, but compared with the single dish of the breakfast, the content of the lunch is much richer, and dishes of various styles fill the table.

Li Mi and Tie Zhu had another feast on the spot. It was no wonder that they did so. The variety of dishes and the richness of ingredients here were not even comparable to the high-end buffets that Lu Lin had eaten in his previous life.

At first glance, this seemed to be no problem. After all, this place has always been so luxurious, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that this matter is actually interesting.

After all, the variety of dishes in modern high-end buffets is achieved by the cold chain transportation and greenhouse planting in modern society as backup conditions. This world does not have such conditions. Most of the dishes in each region and each time period are relatively simple.

Unless...

Some means comparable to modern transportation are used here to transport ingredients.

For example, teleportation.

"Long-distance teleportation is another project that consumes a lot of magic power. The magic power supply in this place is really free," Lu Lin thought secretly, and he was more certain in his heart that this situation was definitely not a blood transfusion from some force behind the scenes, or simply relying on a few human batteries.

During lunch time, everyone was always looking for tourists like Lan Jie said.

But in fact, this matter is actually quite clueless.

Do you think this kind of person must have many external differences or obvious characteristics from others?

Lu Lin couldn't think of it anyway.

So after looking for a whole afternoon, there was no result.

In the afternoon, everyone didn't plan to stay in the three places they had visited before, so they found out if there were any other activities here. As a result, they learned that in addition to the inner courtyard, there are several places to visit in the city.

There are racecourses, hippodrome, shopping malls, etc.

If you want to go to these places, there will be a tour guide to accompany you throughout the journey.

Lu Lin considered whether to go to these places to contact the citizens. After all, if you can meet citizens who have transformed from tourists, you may be able to ask something.

But Si Li held the opposite opinion, thinking that it would be best not to contact the citizens. If, according to their guess, the citizens were really selected tourists, then the citizens here should probably all be regarded as the city lord's people, and contacting them might alert the enemy.

After thinking about it, Lu Lin also agreed with this view.

He wanted to get information, but only under the premise of not interfering with the established plan. If there were any accidents with the citizens, the situation would be beyond the control of his plan.

However, Lu Lin and others still chose to leave here and go shopping in the city.

The place they chose was the mall, one is that they can go shopping and buy some things, and the other is because the information that can be found in the mall should be the most.

For example...

After Lu Lin suspected that there was remote transmission to transport items here, he thought that maybe he could find clues from the city that supplied them.

And the goods in the mall might provide them with some relevant information.

Not to mention, this idea really made Lu Lin go through.

When he was picking clothes for Li Mi, Si Li found him with a basket of fruits and gave him one.

It was a bean-shaped fruit, bright red all over, and looked like a bean-shaped pepper.

Or...

It looked a bit like a red human finger.

Lu Lin took a bite, and the fruit was very sweet, so sweet that it was greasy, and strangely, there was a faint fishy smell in the fruit.

It seemed...

It was the smell of blood?

Wait.

"Is this... Blood Finger Grape?" Lu Lin was stunned.

His alchemy formula includes this thing.

[Dead Potion] · [Others] · [Blood Finger Vine]

It was a kind of thing that grew from corpses, between plants and undead creatures. It would grow on huge rotten corpses, and on the remains of undead creatures, and then it would absorb the nutrients inside the attached objects, and finally produce grape bunches like red fingers.

And the fruit he ate was the Blood Finger Grape produced by its Blood Finger Vine.

Don't think this thing sounds weird, it is actually one of the few positive formulas in necromancy. It is very good at dealing with corpses. It can not only prevent the corpses from rotting and causing plague, but also produce high-calorie fruits. Apart from its disgusting appearance, it has almost no disadvantages.

"You are well-informed," Si Li nodded, "Yes, it is the Blood Finger Grape, the favorite food of the Necromancer School, and basically only their people will eat this thing. By the way, the product name here is Tomato Grape, obviously they don't want people to know what the original name of this thing is."

"You mean, this may be related to the Necromancer School?" Lu Lin frowned slightly.

"It's hard to say. I've only found this one thing that's worth noting," Si Li said, throwing a bloody grape into her mouth, "You should eat it quickly too. Qqun: 543 This thing is quite representative. I don't want to be noticed by someone with ulterior motives."

"Huh? Isn't this easy to deal with?" Lu Lin pouted at Tie Zhu next to him, and then threw the half of the grape in his hand into his mouth.

"Ah! That's right..." Si Li understood, and handed the remaining grapes in her hand to Tie Zhu, indicating that Tie Zhu had eaten them all.

Tie Zhu was stunned for a moment and looked at Lu Lin.

Lu Lin also nodded.

Tie Zhu smiled and put the whole grape into his mouth, showing off, without even a grape stalk left.

He's really not picky about food.

It can only be said that he really beat them in the field of showing off.

After that, Lu Lin and the others didn't find any products worth noting.

After picking two new sets of clothes for Li Mi, everyone decided to return.

But Lu Lin was always thinking about the School of Necromancer.

After all, in terms of manpower utilization, there should be no other profession that can compare to the Necromancer.

After returning, before the dinner started, everyone found a small room to rest.

Regarding the issue of long-term tourists, Lu Lin was not in a hurry to find them, but thought that he could wait until tomorrow's breakfast to see.

After all, if there really are such people, they should have been tired of the breakfast here, and might prefer to sleep in.

The guides here should not be very active in waking such people up. I think they can see if there are any noteworthy people between nine and ten o'clock.

Now what he wants to discuss most is still the issue of the School of Necromancer.

"So, how different is the situation of the School of Necromancer from our school?" Lu Lin asked.

"It's quite different," Sili said. "Although at first glance, the Black Magic School and the Necromancer School are not very popular in the outside world, in fact, the world's acceptance of black magic, witchcraft and black alchemy is much higher than that of necromancy and curses."

"In the Land of Chaos, the Black Magic School is actually doing well, but the Witchcraft School and the Necromancer School are much worse, especially the Necromancer School, which is basically not allowed to see the light even here."
