101 Seeing the Scarlet Sky Again

After the monster died just now, Lawrence cleaned up a palm-sized golden disc while rummaging through the monster's body. If he guessed correctly, this disc was the golden thing he saw inside the monster just now. The disc

There is a circle of wonderful runes engraved on it, and tiny gems fill these grooves.

In the center of the disk, a thumb-sized gray crystal was embedded there. Lawrence stretched out his finger and gently touched the crystal. As a result, the crystal immediately turned into a pile of white powder and fell to the ground.

After cleaning up the area and finding no other findings, Lawrence cast an [Identification Technique] on the golden disc out of safety concerns, and the information he received made him look surprised.

[The control rune version of the Blood Puppet Guard is used to control this kind of puppet made of blood. It is one of the top puppets unique to the Blood Sky Organization, but now this rune version is just taken out from a destroyed puppet and then repaired.

Yes, its ability to control puppets is less than 1/10 of the genuine rune version.】

"Why is it related to the bloody sky again?" Lawrence felt a little strange. He was still carrying a key to a secret treasure house in the sky. Originally, he thought that he would not find it before he went to the treasure hiding place in the northwest Great Lakes region.

He would encounter something related to the bloody sky again, but he didn't expect that his fate would be more wonderful than he imagined.

Of course, this also explains why a theoretically top puppet's combat level is so poor. If we compare it with a car, someone got a broken luxury car engine and barely repaired it, and then found some things and pieced it together haphazardly.

If you install it on a shelf, you can't expect much effect in this case.

After picking up all the guns and reloading the bullets, Lawrence held the pistol and walked back into the building from where he had just come out. Then he climbed all the way up the steps dug out from there. After reaching the second floor, the first thing that greeted him was

What he saw was a burnt wall, which must have been caused by the firework he just fired.

After a brief inspection, Lawrence found that the second floor looked like the living room of the past owner. There was nothing except some tattered daily necessities.

However, Lawrence found one skeleton each in the corridor and an open bedroom. Judging from the remaining things on their bodies and the appearance of the bones, these two people should be less than official level of extraordinary warriors. Unfortunately,

The things they carried had completely decayed over the decades, and Lawrence only found six one-dollar silver coins issued 70 years ago from their waists.

"Forget it, just stay here, there is no need to take away this little money." Lawrence thought for a while and threw the silver coins on the bones. For him who now has a large sum of money, sometimes

You can waste a little money on some obsessions in your heart."

During further inspection, he also found the nest of the demonized violent rats from a broken cabinet. After careful search, he found more than a dozen pieces of stuff from the pile of things used by the violent rats to cushion the nest.

Black translucent crystals of various sizes.

"Magic coal essence? This is a good thing. After processing, it can be used to make many medicines or magic items." While muttering in his mouth, Lawrence put these crystals into a lead box and stuffed it into the space.

Bag. At the same time, the appearance of these crystals also explains why this place is haunted and why the violent number is demonized.

I think the coal mines in this place should contain this kind of magical coal essence, so workers can easily be affected by these things when working here, causing illness, lack of concentration, and even some kind of auditory or visual hallucinations. This way it appears

The probability of accidents is greatly increased.

Not to mention the lack of legal protection and the emergence of inventions like safety lights a few decades ago. The combination of these circumstances naturally led to constant accidents in the mines, which in turn gave rise to haunted legends.

After checking this floor and finding nothing valuable, Lawrence went straight upstairs. It was different from what he estimated from outside. Because the man who dug the hole at that time was too skilled in craftsmanship, the internal space was much smaller than normal.

level. At the same time, the ceilings on each floor and between each floor are much thicker than imagined.

This also makes it look like there are only three floors in a five-story building from the outside, but the third floor of this building looks much larger than the other two. Of course, this is also related to the fact that there are no partitions on the third floor.

The entire third floor is a large space, and there is a wooden plank-like thing in the middle of the wall, and there is a wooden ladder to go up.

However, there are obvious traces of fighting here. More than half of the wooden plank road above has fallen down, and the wooden ladder has also collapsed directly. Some bones are scattered in various places on this floor. More importantly, this

It seemed like there had been a fire on the floor, and the entire space was covered in charred marks.

"Witcher, Mage, it seems that the fighting in this place was indeed very fierce." After carefully distinguishing the bones on the ground, Lawrence quickly identified what this battlefield was like.

"It looks like this demon hunter is bringing five...of course it could be six warriors or gunners." Because there was a fire after using some explosive or corrosive spells, Lawrence couldn't even tell what was scattered on the ground.

How many people did those bones belong to? "Then they came to encircle and suppress the mage, and both sides died together after a battle."

An altar stood there in the center of the room. The statue had been split into three pieces and fell to the ground. Although the statue was very rough and severely damaged, Lawrence still recognized it as the six-armed snake enshrined in the bloody sky.

Human statue.

"It's these guys again. Is Eagle Castle so attracted to such a disgusting cult organization?" Lawrence muttered, but he knew that his guess was probably true.

After all, in that barbaric era, only a powerful city like Eagle Castle could gather enough manpower, which naturally made it convenient for the cultists to do some shameful things in this place. If you go to the wild, safety issues aside, those goblins

Or the kobolds would just boil all creatures other than themselves when they see them. With their low IQ, they cannot be the target of proselytizing.

After confirming that there was no danger in this room, Lawrence checked everything in the room. Of course, the first thing he searched for was the remains of the mage. To his surprise, there was a space bracelet on the right arm of the remains.

.

The space bracelet didn't look exquisite at all, it could even be said to be extremely crude. If he hadn't inspected it, he would have thought it was just an ordinary gold bracelet inlaid with rubies and sapphires.

Naturally, the same was true for the magic lock left on the bracelet. Not only was it crude, but its style was from a hundred years ago. So it only took Lawrence a dozen minutes to unlock all the defenses on the bracelet.

After the defense was released, he immediately discovered the shortcomings of this bracelet: although the space was five cubic meters, it was a long strip of one meter by one meter by five meters, and there were many problems with space utilization. Simple

After checking the things stored in this space, Lawrence took out the black notebook that seemed to have been put into the bracelet last time.

"Why do those villains always like to leave things like diaries and essays as evidence for themselves?" After confirming that it was safe, Lawrence turned over the notebook in front of him and muttered, "It's because they have done bad things and there is nothing they can do about it.

To promote it, do you have to write it down and feel happy?"

But after reading the book carefully, Lawrence finally figured out what was going on here. If he guessed correctly, the skeleton of the mage in red robes that fell there should be from the Bloody Sky organization.

A remnant that remains until the very end.
