The Middleton family used natural caves to open two stone rooms. A small, sturdy iron box was stored in the first stone room. Victor worked hard to break it open, revealing the gold and silver jewelry inside.
He visually estimated that this batch of hidden gold was worth 20,000 to 30,000 gold pagodas, and most of them were high-quality gemstones that were easy to carry. If the sale went smoothly, there should be a 30% to 50% premium.
Looking at the dazzling treasures all over the ground, Victor was inevitably disappointed. The dream arena evolved into things perceived by the wind element, but some details still required Victor to observe personally, such as the words in books, and other examples.
Talk about the contents of the container.
He originally thought that this small iron box was placed in the most conspicuous position, and there must be something good hidden in it, but he did not expect that it was just some useless treasure.
Victor immediately moved his gaze to the weapon rack aside, on which were displayed short armor-piercing spears. They were made of fine iron materials and were heavy. The tip of the spear was a one-foot-long alloy single-edged blade. It could be used with a shield or at close range.
To defend against enemies, it can also be used as a javelin to throw an iron alloy sword from a distance. The blade is four fingers wide, and the blade is sharp and flashes with a cold blue light. The heavy battle ax has two edges and is not just for chopping.
The stupid guy also has the function of reverberating and sweeping. If you don't have enough strength, you can't use it... In addition to these, the stone room also stores armor, bucklers, spears, recurve scimitars, thin rapiers, war bows, etc.
Waiting for weapons and equipment, Victor even found two complex-structured repeating crossbows.
The weapons and protective equipment here are all high-quality, enough to equip 12 warriors. There are shield spearmen who can fight at close range and attack from a distance; heavy axemen with amazing destructive power; scimitar scouts who are good at backstabbing and sneak attacks; and frontal resisters.
Spearman; a crossbow archer who can support his companions.
This stone chamber is obviously a supply point set up by the Middleton family in the underground cave, and it is regularly maintained, because there are several large wooden barrels placed on the other side of the stone chamber, which contain clean fresh water and wine brewed with pecans.
Wine, dried mud melon cubes, cured meat, salted fish and other food and drinks. Although they are properly sealed and stored, they still need to be replaced regularly in the damp and cold cave.
Victor judged based on the experience of top chefs that the dried mud melons stored here by the Middleton family were not more than 40 days old. This meant that they had visited the cave forty days ago and left at least one bucket of sun-dried mud melons.
.
The evolutionary function cannot present a creature that can move autonomously, but the traces of the creature's activities will not be missed. Victor carefully inspected the environment around the stone chamber and found an iron chain more than ten meters long, one end of which was drilled deeply with an iron drill.
The ground was nailed into the rock, and the other end was a collar, the diameter of which was as thick as his waist.
The Middleton family raised a beast in the cave to guard their supply point. The beast was huge, hairless, covered with a layer of scales, and had huge sharp claws that dug out the ground.
Deep claw marks.
However, the beast has disappeared.
There was a large pool of dark red blood on the ground next to the collar. Victor crouched down and touched the blood with his fingers. He was not sure of the type of beast, but the traces at the scene showed that the beast suffered a terrible attack. Perhaps it was because of being ironed.
Because of the chain, it tried to fight back, but it failed, and was eventually killed by the attacker. In addition, the attacker was much smaller than the beast, otherwise it would have left its own traces, but Vic
Most of the time, only the paw prints of one kind of beast are found on the rocks.
To put it simply, a medium-sized attacker killed the underground beast raised by the Middleton family. What is puzzling is that after the underground beast died, the stone house it guarded was not invaded by other underground creatures. The materials inside
Still neatly stacked and well preserved.
There are two possibilities. In addition to the beasts guarding the supply point, there are professionals from the Middleton family stationed there; the second possibility is that the attackers took over the supply point after killing the beasts.
Victor was leaning toward the second possibility. If the professionals of the Middleton family were capable of guarding the supply point, there was really no need for them to raise an underground beast.
If you look at it this way, the attacker should be a wise half-elf?
Does he still consciously protect the Middleton family's supplies?
However, the second speculation is contradictory to the first. If the attacker was a member of the Middleton family, why would he kill the underground beast raised by his family?
Victor was very confused. He only knew that the attacker dragged the beast's body away to the area where the Dream Arena failed to evolve.
On the other hand, Victor carefully searched the surrounding area and found no traces of life left by the attacker, such as excrement, bonfire embers, food residues, etc. The attacker did not even use the living supplies stored in the supply point. He seemed to be a stranger.
The ghost, who needs food, drink, and warmth, silently guards the stone chamber opened by the Middleton family. Any underground creature is afraid of him and dare not approach this area.
In short, underground caves are not safe and there are many strange underground creatures. But the Middleton family has controlled a piece of territory in the underground caves.
Victor hopes that there will be more clues in the second artificial stone chamber.
The Middleton family built the second stone chamber on the top platform of a huge stone pillar, which is 7 or 8 meters high from the ground. The location is quite hidden. There are many such stone pillars in underground caves, and ordinary explorers want to find them.
It's really not easy. Unfortunately, the wind element's perception is not limited by the field of vision, and Victor found the location of the stone chamber very accurately.
He summoned the airflow to surround his body, stepped on the bulges on the surface of the stone pillar, and climbed to the top quickly and dexterously. A small artificially built camp appeared in front of Victor's eyes.
The Middleton family's semi-open building built of stones and wood is very similar to the simple shacks in the water snake town drying yard, but it covers an area of about 90 square meters and has an ingenious and sturdy structure. It is divided into upper and lower floors, with various
The living facilities are also relatively complete. The first floor is a storage room with dozens of large and small square wooden boxes and round wooden barrels, most of which are moisture-proof wooden barrels specially used to store medicinal raw materials.
Victor opened all the wooden boxes and barrels without any scruples. He had the joy of opening a blind box, but he didn't find anything that surprised him.
There is a dazzling array of medicinal raw materials stored in moisture-proof wooden barrels, which is consistent with Mayor Middleton's status as a professional physician. Moreover, the mayor can easily obtain these medicinal materials from passing caravans.
Victor knew every medicinal raw material here, but to understand Dr. Middleton's medicine refining results, these medicinal raw materials alone were not enough. So, Victor climbed to the second floor of the big shed and saw
The doctor's medicine refining room contains a complete set of medicine refining tools, and there are tables, chairs and a bed on the other side, which seems to be the place where the doctor rests.
The stone bed caught Victor's attention. He walked over and found that the stone bed was covered with soft cotton mattresses, and there were very obvious traces of the human figure. The sunken lines of the cotton mattress outlined the enchanting curves of a half-elf woman. She was tall.
Tall, with a slim waist and plump hips, she lay flat on the bed with her legs bent. There were shocking blood stains on the cotton mattress on both sides of her buttocks.
Victor's mind pictured a graceful woman lying flat on the bed. Her lower abdomen was cut open by a knife. Blood overflowed from the wound and fell down the sides of her body onto the cotton mattress, outlining a plump buttocks.
pattern.
Her lower abdomen was cut open while she was awake. There were slender and slender fingerprints on the edge of the stone bed, which showed that she was in great pain at the time. She grabbed the sides of the bed with both hands and dug out deep finger marks on the stone.
This woman's strength is simply astonishing, and her bones and skin are extremely tough and can withstand rocks. Victor thinks that his strength and physical strength are not as good as hers, unless he changes to the elemental affinity state and obtains additional physical attribute bonuses.
In terms of life level alone, she should be at the third level, and may even have reached the fourth level.
So, why did she appear here, having her belly cut open while still alive without resisting?
With his mind full of questions, Victor turned his gaze to the alchemy room, and finally landed on a row of cabinets against the wall. The owner here probably did not expect that his alchemy room would be invaded, as the cabinets were not locked. Victor
Ke Duo opened the cabinet door and took out a jar. It was crystal clear and carved from a whole piece of crystal. It was filled with a viscous and transparent medicinal liquid, and occasionally emitted a vague green brilliance.
Some rare medicinal materials have the characteristic of element affinity. Medicinal materials that are compatible with the water element will emit green brilliance. This is called the light of life in esoteric medicine and represents rich vitality. Crystal containers can block the influence of water elements to the greatest extent.
Escape naturally.
There is also a row of identical crystal jars in the cabinet, five in total. There is a fetus soaked in the crystal jar on the far left?!
Victor couldn't help but open his eyes wide. He was sure that the fetus soaked in the crystal container was a humanoid intelligent species, but it was definitely not a fetus of a known half-elf, barbarian, half-orc or alien. Although the fetus was not yet formed, curled up
It was a ball, only the size of Victor's fist, but its translucent skin had strange patterns, a pair of tender bumps on its forehead, and a small spiny tail trailing behind its butt.
Thinking of the traces of a half-elf woman on the stone bed and cotton mattress, Victor finally knew why her belly was cut open.
Could it be that the doctor of the Middleton family used the pregnant half-elf female as a living body for secret medicine, and took the fetus in her belly to prepare a mysterious medicine rich in vitality?
However, it is impossible for an ordinary half-elf woman to have the power to crack rocks. Looking at the alien fetus in the crystal container, Victor thought to himself:
Is she really a Disa half-elf?
Doctors usually keep notes when preparing new medicines. Victor opened a row of drawers on the medicine cabinet and finally found a thick stack of animal skin paper notebooks in the third drawer. The experimental content recorded on it amazed Victor. He
It took more than six hours to carefully read the test notes from beginning to end.
With a "pop" sound, Victor closed the animal skin paper notebook. After reading the contents of the note, he felt confused and couldn't calm down.
The experimental notes of a professional doctor are not diaries and do not have a coherent story. From the context of Victor's experimental records, it is not difficult to discover an event that is full of tragedy, sin, twists and turns, bizarre and heinous events.
The owner of the note is indeed the mayor of Water Snake Town, Middleton, and the mother body that he regards as the living secret medicine is his wife, Mrs. Christine.
However, Christine recorded by Middleton is a rare "demon half-elf". At least, she is now a "demon" and has many life characteristics beyond imagination.
Middleton did not describe how Christine was transformed from a noble girl into a "demon half-elf". He only focused on Christine's value and used the fetus of a "demon half-elf"
Experiment and prepare a "life distortion purification agent".
Middleton has presided over nineteen similar experiments. Every time Christine became pregnant, he had to cut open the other woman's uterus and take out the fetus. Because Middleton discovered that if the baby in Christine's belly was allowed to
As the child continues to grow, the fetus will completely drain Christine of her life force until she dies.
Of course, Middleton's mind is on the verge of madness and he has no mercy for Christine. He treats her completely as a testing tool instead of his beloved wife. Otherwise, he would not let Christine get pregnant again and again, and he would not let Christine get pregnant again and again.
Repeatedly endured the pain of caesarean section.
At first, Middleton himself was the father of the first few fetuses, and gradually became the manservant of the family. The last father who made the "Life Abnormality Purification Potion" a success was their butler-Ethaniel.
The cause of Middleton's death was clear and he deserved to be killed.
Victor must also admit that although Middleton was a paranoid lunatic, his pharmaceutical experiments were full of incredible imagination and he almost single-handedly opened up a new field of occult medicine.
The knowledge contained in it moved even Victor. However, the development of any academic field cannot be achieved overnight. It needs to be accumulated over a long period of time and step by step to explore and move forward in the footsteps of the predecessors.
In his notes, Middleton mentioned several ways for the secret medicine to change life forms, including absorption, implantation, incubation, and pollution distortion. Among them, the incubation method and the pollution distortion method were things that Victor had never heard of.
Yes. Middleton also mentioned the "Life Furnace", and the "Life Distortion Purification Potion" is part of the Life Furnace.
It can be seen from this that the wonderful knowledge that Middleton possesses must have its source!
With great curiosity, Victor opened the last drawer. It was still full of animal skin paper scrolls, but they were carefully wrapped in moisture-proof moth silk cloth.
Victor took out the top animal skin scroll, tore off the moth silk cloth, and after unfolding the scroll, he almost jumped up with excitement. The text on the animal skin scroll was the cursive letters he was most familiar with - Disa Alliance.
The secret text used by the founder, the great sage Marv!
"...Lisa is missing. I told everyone that the ancient ruins in the Dark Land are full of unpredictable dangers, so don't stay too far away from Philumate. However, everyone seems to be more afraid of Philumate? I
Rowan, the most loyal guard captain, secretly told me that they suspected Philumat had eaten Lisa. Because Lisa always flattered me and wanted to stay in my tent. She made Philumat unhappy.
Philumat found an opportunity to swallow her in one gulp without leaving any trace, just like she disappeared..."
"Haha, Rowan is talking nonsense. I admit that Philumat looks a bit scary now, but she is still an obedient child... Well, a baby dragon, maybe a young dragon? She has indeed grown a lot in the past ten years...
...In short, Philumat will not eat Lisa out of jealousy. Because, I, the devout Malv, have already dedicated everything to the supreme Lord of Glory. After I heard the devil's ravings, I purified myself
, to prove my loyalty to His Majesty the Great Pope, and I will never have any interest in women from now on... I am pure in body and mind, and was inspired by the Lord, so I traveled thousands of miles to this barbaric land to save you, the remaining sinful people of the Pantheon. You.
You actually doubt my character? Philumat wouldn’t doubt it..."
"...June 11th, Year 6279 of the Glorious Calendar."
