Chapter 122 The trip to No. 9 Golden Oak Street
When Leo proposed a two-pronged march strategy, Rembrandt seemed to have lost interest in continuing to talk about current affairs, and did not mention the bet again. He left the study in a wheelchair and returned after a while holding a box.
study, and then handed the box to Leo.
"I have calculated that tomorrow night will be the night with the brightest moon this year. If the accident at No. 9 Golden Oak Street is really related to the moon, then the situation will definitely reappear tomorrow night." The old man became extremely serious at this time.
, pointed to the box in Leo's hand, and said: "Inside this box is a strange object that I asked someone to make based on the Turing root of the sign on the Silver Moon Tower. I hope it can be useful to you."
Leo opened the box and took out a simple-looking stone bracelet. On the bracelet, you can see a Turing root composed of nine basic radicals. Soon the secondary brain system analyzed the Turing root.
The general meaning of root is to receive information and guide the position.
After holding the stone bracelet in his hand, he immediately felt the strong spiritual energy transmitted from the bracelet. Although this spiritual energy was not the most powerful among the other spiritual energy he felt, it was the purest, compared to the sky.
Aunt Hannah in the Tower and Master Wenger in the Stone Palace are both pure and pure, giving him the feeling of feeling the breath of nature.
"Is this made by a wizard?" Leo asked, then added: "Ancient wizard?"
"No." The old man shook his head and said, "This is a strange object made by a wilderness shaman from the Moissan continent."
Shamans can be said to be the oldest psykers in the world of Velen. They regard all things in nature as the origin of their faith, and are the predecessors of many orthodox churches in the Orthodox Church. However, the predecessor shamans have become the gods of the church one by one with the origin of their faith.
Shamans have also gradually disappeared, and now they have become almost as legendary as ancient wizards. Only in some wild areas on the Moissan continent that have not been touched by human footprints, a trace of shamanic belief still remains.
Thinking that a shaman who could make wizard-like magic items would appear in Miria City at this time, Leo couldn't help but wonder, so he asked: "Is he also here for No. 9 Golden Oak Street?"
The old man did not hide anything, nodded and said: "He feels that his life is coming to an end, so he hopes to do something meaningful before he dies, such as finding out the secrets of No. 9 Golden Oak Street."
Leo didn't comment on what the shaman did. He just put the stone bracelet on his hand. The moment the bracelet was put on his hand, he suddenly had a sense and could clearly sense the location of the Silver Moon Tower, and even
It can also sense the position of other similar bracelets.
Leo immediately took off the bracelet, frowned, turned to the old man, and said, "Why did he make so many bracelets?"
The old man knew very well that Leo would react this way, and said with a smile: "He felt that one more person would give him more power to find out the truth, so he continued to make more than thirty bracelets throughout his life, and gave them all to Millie.
All the people from the dark world in Asia who come to No. 9 Golden Oak Street."
"This is all nonsense!" Leo casually threw the stone bracelet in his hand on the table and said: "Since we can sense the sign of Silver Moon Tower, Silver Moon Tower can also sense our location. If...
…”
"You are thinking too much. The people of Silver Moon Tower are eager for someone to test whether the Turing root of Silver Moon Tower's sign is valid, and the more people there are, the better." The old man said with a smile: "These bracelets have been made.
It's been a night, if Silver Moon Tower really wanted to do something, it would have been done long ago. Since there is no response from there, it means that the existence of these bracelets has been acquiesced."
Although what the old man said made sense, Leo did not pick up the stone bracelet again because he felt that things were not as simple as what the old man said. He believed in his own intuition more than the old man's experience and judgment.
.
After that, the old man did not disturb Leo's reading anymore, and Leo also took advantage of this time to quickly replenish the accessory brain database, and spent another day and night replenishing more than two thousand common sense books and information.
During this period of time, Anne came to him once and told him that Nelson and the three of them had been sent away. As for how they were sent away, Leo did not ask. With his current understanding of the strength of the Lost Society, he could follow the law
It is a very simple matter for the Lan Empire to send a few people back to the Kingdom of England.
During the day of the next day, while there was still time, Leo read more than a hundred books related to occultism, and then went to the black market to replenish some special bullets. He tried his best to use the special bullets he had replenished before.
, has been accumulating, and now there are almost two thousand bullets, but he has a vague feeling that these bullets may not be enough for this trip to No. 9 Golden Oak Street.
Just as the sun was approaching sunset, Leo packed his luggage. He had no intention of leaving anything behind, so he took everything with him.
Old Rembrandt looked at Leo packing things, his face was a little gloomy, he wanted to say something several times, but nothing came out. It was not until Leo was about to leave that he couldn't help but said: "Actually, you don't need to
Go to No. 9 Golden Oak Street and we can change a trading agreement."
Leo stood at the door for a while, then turned back and smiled at Old Rembrandt: "I am very curious about No. 9 Golden Oak Street. Your transaction is just the cause. It has nothing to do with your transaction now. I just want to go."
After saying that, he walked out of the villa without waiting for the old man to say anything else. The old man looked at Leo disappearing at the door and was speechless for a long time. Finally he sighed, controlled the wheelchair, and turned back to the study.
Vasqi, who followed the old man to the study, looked at the old man's gloomy look and said, "I need him..."
"No! The young eagle has to fly after all." The old man sighed, turned to Vashchi and asked: "Do you think he looks like Joey?"
"It's not like it!" Vashchi answered immediately, but after finishing the answer, he remained silent for a moment, as if he was hesitating whether his words were correct, but in the end he shook his head, convinced himself, and said: "It's not like it at all."
"It seems that they are still very similar." Vasqi's expression confirmed the old man's idea.
When Vaschi saw the old man misinterpreting her words, she could not help but glare at the old man, but in the end she did not change the old man's opinion.
After sitting for a while, the old man gradually recovered from his gloomy mood and suddenly said to Vasqi: "How about we go to Nobiland? Sunshine Beach should be much more comfortable than here."
When Vaschi heard what the old man said, she turned around and went back to her room to pack her things without even thinking about it.
Just when Old Rembrandt and Vaschi were discussing leaving this place of right and wrong and going to a warm place for vacation, Leo, who was worried about them just a moment ago, just walked out of the villa area. At this time, a long-awaited car drove
The carriage drove in front of him and stopped.
"Get in the car." Sylvia's voice came from the carriage.
Leo was not polite, opened the door and walked up, only to see Sylvia and Emily sitting in the carriage. Compared with the obvious look of worry on Emily's face, Sylvia looked more worried.
It's quite plain, but the eyes he looks at Leo always have a hint of complaint.
After the carriage traveled a certain distance, Sylvia suddenly took out a box from her body and handed it to Leo, saying, "Here, maybe you can use it."
Leo took the box, opened it and looked at it. He couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that the thing in the box was the stone bracelet he gave up yesterday.
"Thank you!" He closed the box again, did not return the box to Sylvia, but put it into his backpack and said a simple thank you.
Seeing that Leo didn't even ask about the function of this bracelet, Sylvia knew that Leo must already have such a bracelet. Her face immediately turned red and she turned to look outside the car without saying anything.
"Mr. Dodd, do you have to go to such a dangerous place?" Emily had obviously learned about No. 9 Golden Oak Street from Sylvia, so she was very worried about Leo's trip and tried to dissuade her.
Leo's decision.
Leo did not answer Emily's words. Instead, he deliberately changed the subject and said, "How is the investigation of your matter going?"
"Still investigating, not very clear, but Sydney is helping me." Emily was naturally led astray by Leo, and rambled on about the things she had investigated in the past two days.
Leo listened carefully and did not interrupt to give any suggestions. Even if he found some clues, he did not say anything because he could feel that Emily was gradually becoming familiar with some observations and analyzes that she had not had in the past through investigating her case.
ability.
The carriage drove very fast, and although there were some checkpoints blocking the way, Sylvia's ID opened the way, and the journey was smooth, and it didn't take long to arrive at the Shangqianyue Lake area in the suburbs.
Due to the turbulent situation, the dignitaries who originally lived in the city moved to villas in the lake area, hiring a lot of bodyguards and security guards to be responsible for the safety of the villas, and several huge airships were docked in the courtyards of some villas.
It seems that once something happens, the owner of the villa will take an airship and leave from the sky.
The carriage did not drive to No. 9 Golden Oak Street, but stopped far away. Because No. 9 Golden Oak Street had a bad reputation, the road leading there had been dug up and trees were replanted.
The carriage couldn't get in at all.
"Be careful." Sylvia suddenly warned Leo when he was about to get out of the car.
Leo nodded slightly, waved to Emily who was about to say something, then got out of the car and without looking back, walked into the forest leading to No. 9 Golden Oak Street.
"What a cold guy!" Seeing that Leo didn't say anything and didn't even look back, Sylvia curled her lips and complained.
When she heard Sylvia saying bad things about Leo, Emily immediately defended Leo and said, "I think he was afraid that we would worry, so he didn't say anything."
"Huh!" Sylvia neither refuted nor agreed, she just snorted coldly, then knocked on the carriage panel behind her, gave an order, and drove back into the city.
Leo entered the forest without hesitation and released his mental net. Soon his mental net captured several lurkers who were hiding in the forest and observing the coming people. These lurkers had more or less symptoms on their bodies.
Some psychic reactions should be from people from a certain force in the dark world.
Before, Leo had always thought that the dark world in this world only consisted of a few large organizations and forces such as the Strange Society, the Night Watch, and the Familia. But in fact, there are many organizations and forces in the dark world. But most of them
The organizational power of the dark world is only slightly related to occultism. Unlike other organizations, most members have a good understanding of the doctrines of the mysterious world and even master some magical powers.
Although these organizations are considered inferior in the eyes of dark world organizations such as the Night Watch and the Familia, they also hope to become such a big organization, so after the news about No. 9 Golden Oak Street began to spread, they seemed to join in the fun.
Some people were sent over to see if they could find any leaks. However, the reputation of No. 9 Golden Oak Street was so bad that the people who were sent did not dare to approach the villa. They only dared to wander around the periphery to collect some qualifications.
, you can also tell people in the future that you participated in the exploration of No. 9 Golden Oak Street.
Leo's arrival immediately attracted the attention of these lurkers, but they did not have the courage to come forward and say hello to Leo. Instead, they changed to a hiding place to avoid Leo's route. Judging from the reactions of these people,
Apparently the people who passed here before left some bad memories for them.
After walking through a section of dense woods, Leo entered the villa at No. 9 Golden Oak Street. This area was easy to identify because not only did no trees grow here, not even a single blade of grass grew. It was completely
There is no breath of life.
When Leo entered this area, he immediately encountered energy similar to the interference energy stance, which had a great impact on his mental network, forcing him to take back his mental network and activate his spiritual vision skills instead.
However, when Leo's eyes entered the state of spiritual vision, the scene in his eyes immediately stopped him, because he found that under his spiritual vision, the gardens and wasteland in the entire villa area were covered with flowers and grass, and it was eerie.
The steeple building is covered with ivy and other plants, and in the air above the building, a vortex that looks like a black hole envelops the entire building.
"Did you see it?" At this time, a high-pitched voice suddenly came from behind Leo.
Leo was shocked. He found that he didn't notice anyone approaching so close, but he didn't show any abnormal expression on his face. He turned off his spiritual vision skills and looked back behind him.
I saw a short dwarf standing behind him. This dwarf was wearing a piece of clothing made of plant fiber, a pair of hats made of animal horns on his head, and holding a withered piece of wood in his hand.
.Although this dwarf looks very young, Leo feels that the actual age of the dwarf should be very old.
