Chapter 494: Rest and Exploration
The ornately decorated hall wasn't huge, and when the Muse walked in, he basically glanced around and took in everything in the hall.
Except for a small amount of furniture for resting, all that remains in the hall is the gray-and-white desk by the window, and the rows of bookshelves with some books displayed on the right side of the desk.
On the wall, five meters from the left-hand side of the desk, there are small black doors marked with numbers from 1 to 9, and I don't know where they lead.
As Muse watched these things, behind him, Ludon and Lu walked in, followed by Lydia......
It didn't take long for everyone in the group to enter this hall.
At this moment, Victor began to slowly walk towards the desk by the window, appearing very cautious, concentrating on finding out if there were any spell traps along the way.
Nothing changed, and he made it to his desk, and then used the spell of the Mage's Hand to turn the black notebook on his desk to the first page.
“......”
I don't know what Victor saw, but he then put the black notebook in his space bag, then turned to everyone and said:
"Now, you can rest. ”
"I've come to know that this is a lounge-like place for the owner of this mage tower to take a break from the fatigue of the experiments and to take care of some chores. ”
“......”
And after glancing at everyone, Viktor continued,
"We'll have an hour off. ”
"You can use it for rest. ”
"Of course ......"
"It can also be used for an exploration where the risks and benefits are unknown. ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to a row of small black doors to the left of his desk.
"There are nine gates here. ”
"Each door has been cast with a spatial spell that connects to a certain area of this one lab. ”
"Of course, it's a two-way street, because they are the owners of this mage tower. ”
"You can enter at any door of your choice, and within an hour, whatever you get your hands will be your own. ”
However, the coexistence of risks and benefits, how to make a choice, is a problem that needs to be considered. ”
"Moreover, I will never allow anyone to have a conflict of interest that will affect the next task......"
After a few words, Victor turned around and walked towards the bookshelf to the right of his desk, apparently leaving the choice to everyone.
For a while, everyone's faces were different, and they couldn't help but start discussing in a low voice with their familiar companions.
"Muse, what are you going to do?"
Just as Muse stroked his chin and looked at Victor's back with a slight distraction, as if thinking about something, a clear voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Huh?"
Suddenly coming back to his senses, no sooner had the muse raised his head than Lydia's delicate countenance, a pair of emerald eyes staring at him.
"Hmm......"
"Mentor, are you asking me?"
As he spoke, the muse, whose face had an unnatural look, shifted slightly to distance himself away from Lydia.
"Yes, I'm asking you. ”
"So, what's your answer?"
Lydia reiterates the problem with great certainty.
Glancing around from the corner of his eye, Muse noticed that just as he was in his trance, the group had already made a decision.
The people who choose to rest and choose to explore are basically half and half, and the casters who think that they consume a lot of money basically choose to rest, such as Angelina, who basically maintains the eye of the secret spell throughout the whole process.
Several spellcasters, who thought that they were not consuming much, were ready to explore, and at this time they all walked to the nine small black doors lined up, thinking about which door to choose to enter.
“......”
"Personally, I tend to go and explore. ”
"Mentor, you know, the laboratory of a legendary spellcaster, contains something of value that is absolutely unimaginable......"
In a hurry, the muse gave this answer.
And the muse's answer was obviously in line with Lydia's expectations, so she only nodded when she heard this, and then wiped it on her waist, and directly took out an alchemy test tube containing a light green medicinal liquid:
"That's what I thought, too. ”
"So, here's a medium-sized healing potion, take it. ”
"It may be useful in times of danger. ”
"Hmmm......"
"Remember, don't try things that are beyond your means!"
After speaking, before the muse could say anything, Lydia put the medium-sized healing potion in his hand, then turned to leave, and walked directly to the small black door not far away, and after a short pause, she chose one of them to enter......
“......”
Staring at the pale green medium-sized healing potion in his hand for a moment, the muse shook his head inexplicably.
"Lu, Ludon, follow me. ”
Then, he gently patted Lu's shoulder beside him and walked towards the small black door marked with a miserable white number "3".
The Muse had noticed that no one else had chosen to enter the small black door, which was exactly what he wanted.
......
After a slight dizziness, the muse's vision became clear again.
The next moment, his face couldn't help but show a hint of interest.
It was a very large space, with rows of neatly arranged shelves, and he didn't know the exact number, but as far as he could see, there were already close to hundreds.
It was filled with large and small vessels, containing a variety of common spell materials that had been processed!
As far as the Muse could see, in addition to the shelves for the utensils, there were rows of half-human-high transparent cabinets, their colors extremely pale, each with a different label attached to it, and a different circle painted on it, as if the things contained in them needed to be preserved in a special way.
Strange eyeballs soaked in black liquid, gray stones with mycelial mold, and shriveled corpses wrapped in shrouds form flowers of baby faces......
Compared to the common spell materials on the shelves, the spell materials kept in the item cabinet here are much more special, and you can almost know that they must be high-grade materials belonging to the necromantic system without thinking about it.
"This is the lab's warehouse?"
"Funny ......"
"I came here. ”
Standing in front of a portal formed by a pale light, the muse who saw all this did not act rashly in the slightest.
As long as you have a little brain, you should know that this kind of place where a large number of high-value things are stored must have high-intensity protection measures!
Behind him, the figures of Lu and Ludon slowly emerged......
