Chapter 0308: Exploring the Ancient Castle

Thirteen days later......

Alice arrived at Willique Castle in a rainy and rainy car.

As the black carriage passed through the wide crescent-shaped doorway, drove through the fine gravel road, bypassed the huge and exquisite mermaid fountain, and docked in front of the castle's three-story main building, more than 100 servants, including gardeners, cooks, handymen, maids, guards, butlers, and more than 100 others, were waiting here.

Their expressions were flattering and embarrassed, and there was even more panic in their eyes that could not be concealed.

Those who were able to stay were all contracted with the castle, so they were also counted as part of the castle's wealth at this time.

Seeing the few people who walked down from the carriage first, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was Kerr and Warren who were four wizarding apprentices, and they were all "old men" who had served in the castle for five or six years. Being able to see them made everyone feel at ease.

And when Alice, dressed in a pale yellow dress, appeared in front of everyone, they were puzzled for a while, and then officially greeted her under the guidance of the four wizard apprentices.

"Alright, let's all disperse!" Alice waved her hand impatiently, "Settle me down first, and then report back to me after a while." The rest go ahead and do their job!"

The crowd hurriedly complied.

An hour later, after a brief bath, Alice met the castle butler in the bedroom on the second floor.

This is a meticulous old man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, gray hair, and a meticulous groom, and he is also the old butler who has served more than fifty thoughts in Willic Castle. Of course, it is the privilege of serving a wizard who also holds a title of nobility.

A large number of low-level nobles are employed in the wizard's private estate, which is actually a norm!

After all, there are too few ordinary people who can read and write, and who know how to calculate.

"Tell me, what kind of property does this Villerick Castle have?" said Alice, wrapped in a soft silk robe, reclining in her chair with an old-fashioned look.

Her long blond hair was still wet from the shower, and from time to time splashes would fall on the carpet. The silk robe was brought by herself, and it was as long as her knees. As she curled up in her chair, her robe was tucked in, revealing her snow-white calves and slender bare feet, and the ten small, beautiful toes that bloomed like petals were even more eye-catching.

In addition to the old butler who came to report, there were also the four wizard apprentices who had just "taken refuge" in the house, two senior and two intermediate, but they all lowered their heads in the same way, not daring to peep at this maverick Alice.

Alice tugged at the silk robe that slipped off her shoulders, obscuring the brightly colored magical tattoo. Whenever she saw this intricate, delicate, three-dimensional mysterious tattoo that stretched over her entire upper body, Alice couldn't help but recall the terrifying pain of lying on the alchemy test table, being scorched by the burning rays on her skin little by little.

Grim has tattoos, and Alice already knows that.

She even knew that the magic tattoo on Grim's body worked surprisingly well.

In the past, the old version of the Fire Demon Transformation was able to bring it a double increase in physical fitness, although it was not long, but it was enough to be enviable. And now, with the integration of the knowledge of the runes of the other world, the new version of the Flame Demon Transformation can even reach about three times the increase in strength, which is ...... This is a bit too rebellious!

The combination of the new version of the Flame Demon Transformation gives Grimm a powerful Fire Demon Body, and the transplanted Fire Demon Heart can provide a steady stream of fire energy, and the combination of the two creates a super terrifying Fire Maniac.

As her master's personal maid, Alice now knows everything about Grim's true strength.

So when Grim summoned her to the secret room and solemnly and mysteriously asked her if she would like to accept such a magical tattoo, Alice's blood boiled all over her body.

The answer, of course, is yes.

As a possessor of extraordinary powers, she will not reject any kind of knowledge and technology that can improve her abilities, so Alice undoubtedly agreed.

However, when she lay naked on the alchemy table and was baptized with a magic tattoo, she couldn't help but regret it.

It hurts so much!

Is this a magic tattoo? No, it is not at all.

What's the difference between this and those alchemists etching magic patterns and witchcraft runes into witchcraft weapons? It's just that it's a cold, painless object, and she's a living person!

The scorching rays burned the flesh, neither deep nor shallow, neither big nor small, and the fine silk-like grooves of flesh and blood were filled with special alchemical materials in time. The material obviously contains a special substance that inhibits the regeneration of flesh and blood, and only in this way can it avoid the premature healing of the wound due to the poor constitution, which will lead to the failure of the magic pattern.

And this huge magic tattoo is almost all over most of the upper body, and it is inevitable that it will pass through some of the more sensitive areas.

As the scorching rays drift through the sensitive area little by little, Alice must show twelve points of strength to control the flesh and skin from contracting and trembling due to irritation such as pain or itching. After all, the process of drawing the magic tattoo is rigorous and precise, and any slight deviation in the position of the pattern can cause the magic tattoo to become invalid.

Therefore, Alice must transform herself into a numb humanoid object when her mind is clear, so as not to interfere with the drawing of the magic tattoo.

So the four hours of drawing a tattoo is nothing short of an endless and terrible ordeal!

When Grim leaned into her ear and announced that the magic tattoo had been successfully completed, Alice didn't even take a quarter of an hour to get up from the alchemy table. In the end, it was Grimm, the owner, who took her back to her residence in good sense and recuperated for a long time before she regained all her consciousness.

Grim specializes in fire, so he drew himself a fire demon transformation, while Alice awakened the bloodline of the Witch of Destiny, and what she is good at is spatial talent, so Grim drew her ......

And this, obviously, is also tailor-made for her!

"In addition to the castle itself, the property of Willic Castle also includes a small manor, which is responsible for providing the castle with daily food and drink, including xxx slaves, xx buildings, and xx acres of vassal land......

In the city of Vandir, there is also a secret hut, two blacksmith shops, and two bakeries......

Inside the castle, there are xx buildings, xxx rooms, xxx slaves and miscellaneous servants, xx barrels of wine in the wine cellar, and ...... existing gold coins"

Listening to the aristocratic butler take the trouble to list all the castle estates one by one, Alice finally interrupted him impatiently with a wave of her hand.

"You have written down all these worldly treasures, just submit them to me. What I want to know most now is, what kind of private treasure trove or collection does that dead Saxor have?" a smile appeared on Alice's delicate porcelain doll-like little face, "You can't have already disposed of these things, have you?"

The faces of the four apprentices were horrified, and the noble butler lowered his head.

"Don't dare, Lord Alice. On the third floor of the castle, the Saxolet Wizard had set up his own collection room, laboratory, and study, which was strictly forbidden for outsiders, even the former Miss Celia was forbidden to enter without being summoned. An embarrassed smile appeared on the noble butler's face: "So we don't know what's in it!"

"Oh, and that?" Alice's eyes lit up at once.

Truth be told, as an apprentice wizard, who isn't curious about the sorcery lab set up by an old wizard?

Alice immediately rushed back to the screen like a whirlwind, and when she reappeared in front of everyone, she was dressed in a short gray robe, a short and delicate magic wand, a golden birdcage, a wisdom headband, and neat glass test tubes lined up around her waist, and Alice's white and delicate ten fingers were almost full of witchcraft rings that shone with mysterious fluorescence.

Even the sharp deerskin leather boots on Alice's feet shimmered faintly with the glow of witchcraft.

"Alright, alright, I'm ready!" Alice exclaimed excitedly, "Let's go out now to explore the Saxor's laboratory......

"We?" the four apprentice wizards raised their heads in unison, ominous signs in their minds.

"Of course it's us!" Alice clenched her fists, already desperate, "You are all with me to protect me, of course you have to go in with me!"

The faces of the four wizard apprentices turned pale in an instant.

…………

The Saxoman's laboratory was built on the third floor of the castle's main building.

Following the wooden spiral staircase, Alice and the four apprentices successfully set foot in this strange territory.

What unfolded before them was a quiet, deep, dimly lit corridor.

Small candlesticks were placed on the walls on both sides of the corridor at intervals, perhaps sensing the arrival of the breath of life, and with a soft sound of rubbing, the candle closest to them was silently lit. Then one by one, the candlesticks lit up one after another, extending little by little towards the depths of the corridor.

The candlelight was dim, and it could only illuminate the area of half a meter near the candlestick.

The dim candlelight of the bean size jumped, adding a touch of weirdness and mystery to the dark and deep corridor!

Everyone swallowed.

Magical Chambers, Witchcraft Traps, Witchcraft Guards, Mysterious Monsters, Terrifying Witchcraft Radiation......

When they think of these creepy things, everyone can't help but twist their legs and stomachs. If Alice hadn't been staring at them from behind, the four wizard apprentices would have dispersed and fled.

Exploring the laboratory of an established wizard is not much safer than exploring some ancient ruins!

As an elite wizard, Sax Wizard would probably not believe his wizarding laboratory if there was no vigilance mechanism in his sorcery laboratory.

This hateful Alice, who was still shouting rampant before setting off just now, but as soon as she stepped on the third floor, she naturally shrank behind the four wizard apprentices, and she still looked like she should be like this.

"Will, you're at the front," Alice commanded, waving her little fist.

The guy named Will was only a mid-level apprentice, and he was undoubtedly the worst of the four. At this moment, Alice named him, and looked back at the evasive gazes of the three companions, knowing that this matter was inevitable, and no one would intercede for him.

Will could only grit his teeth and take out a white finger bone, blessed himself with a white bone shield, and then cautiously stepped into the corridor.
