Chapter 20: Domain Props

Carlos was stunned.

"Aion, what is that place?"

Du Buyi's eyes flashed, he sighed melancholy, shook his head and said:

"I haven't been there, legend has it that the Tower of Eternity is not only a holy place for alchemy, but also a temple for dark magicians, and those who have been there say that it is a man-eating cage, but those who have not been to it call it the territory of the gods. ”

Carlos listened in a fog, "Teacher, that... What the hell is the Tower of Eternity?"

The old man came back from his confusion, glared at Carlos, and said angrily.

"You ask me, who do I ask?"

Carlos was dumbfounded.

You can't tell why you can't tell why, and you're embarrassed to brag about it?

After Du Buyi finished speaking, he stood up with a bang, and it seemed that he was leaving.

Carlos quickly stood up and took out the demon hunting pocket watch in his arms.

The silvery-white dial is polished to a very smooth and delicate finish, with a shimmering brilliance characteristic of silver.

"Teacher, are you familiar with this?" said Carlos, spreading his pocket watch in his palm.

Du Buyi stopped, supported the back of the sofa with a thin and withered arm, and slowly turned his head.

Looking at the pocket watch in Carlos's palm, the old man's wrinkled old face was full of ancient wells.

After a moment, the old man said lightly, "This is a domain prop. ”

Carlos frowned, a little surprised.

"Teacher, isn't this a demon hunting pocket watch, which is used to predict the location of underground demons..."

Du Buyi interrupted noncommittally: "This is given to you by your father, just to be wary of those underground mud legs, it's a waste." ”

Carlos was silent for a moment.

"Teacher, what does the domain prop mean, I also use it for puppet communication training, and I can only summon phantoms from it. ”

The old man groaned and reached out to take the pocket watch from Carlos's palm, and after examining it carefully, he said slowly:

"This is a realm item that can only be awakened by all those who have the bloodline of the summoning system.

Although the realm aura inside is very subtle, I can still feel that if you have the opportunity to get a suitable puppet, you can use mental power manipulation to hide the puppet in this small realm, but since you haven't carried out the inheritance bloodline ritual yet, it's okay to practice mental power manipulation. As for why it was able to predict the location of nearby demons, it was actually nothing more than placing a small amount of underground demonic aura in the realm, so that it could naturally perceive the location of the aura. ”

Carlos was slightly stunned, and he didn't think that he inadvertently showed the pocket watch to Du Buyi, and he got so much information about this demon hunting pocket watch.

After Du Buyi finished speaking, he didn't seem to have any interest in pocket watches.

Carlos took the pocket watch that the old man had returned to his bosom and looked at it for a moment, but he felt nothing.

The breath of the realm?

I grew up playing with the pocket watch, and there was this thing in it, and I didn't know there was such a thing.

However, he showed Du Buyi the pocket watch, not for this matter.

He hurriedly added: "Teacher, when I was upstairs just now, there was an abnormality in the pocket watch. ”

Carlos thought that his words would alarm the old man.

But he unexpectedly acted indifferent, just shook his arm slightly, and said with a pout, "So what, do you think that mud legs dare to come here to make trouble?"

After speaking, without waiting for Carlos to react, he took out an unopened bottle of ale from the box again, and walked slowly towards the basement entrance in the doorway on the right.

It's just that when he passed in front of Carlos, who looked a little sluggish, he dropped a sentence lightly, and disappeared through the door.

"During this time, you just try to comprehend the alchemy materials in those books, and you don't need to worry about the rest, and besides, the bread is in the kitchen cupboard, and you can take it yourself when you are hungry. ”

Carlos came to his senses and agreed.

Du Buyi went to the alchemy workshop in the basement, and Carlos didn't want to go down and bother.

It's not a good idea to interrupt an alchemist's work.

This alchemist, in particular, is still an old man with an eccentric temper.

Since there is half a month of f time, then take advantage of it.

Carlos's gaze refocused on the parchment scrolls on the coffee table, his black eyes condensed slightly.

It turns out that when you concentrate on something, time seems to grow and passes quickly.

Carlos chewed on a dry loaf of bread in his mouth, holding a piece in his right hand, ready to put it in his mouth.

His left hand gently flipped the spread out "Alchemy Geometric Pattern Symbol Preliminary", and the expression on his face was very serious.

As the sky darkens, the sun sets, and the dusk comes to an end.

A few crows chirped outside the window, waking up Carlos, whose eyes were a little interfering.

He slowly raised his head.

It was found that it was dark, and Du Buyi still did not come out of the basement.

Carlos rubbed his interfering eyes, feeling a little tired, those damn jerky alchemy symbols and geometric patterns were making him a little overused.

The living room was dark, and Carlos searched around in the dim light.

Fortunately, a small gas lamp was placed in the corner.

This type of gas lamp consists of a lamp holder for a gas inlet pipe, a screw bolt, and a metal pipe with a small hole in the lower part.

Carlos naturally used it at home a long time ago, and skillfully set it on fire.

Gas lamps are very convenient, with rotating screws to adjust the amount of gas entering the lamp holder, and rotating metal pipes to adjust the amount of air entering the lamp holder to control the flame temperature.

Carlos picked up the gaslight handle in one hand and was about to return to the couch and take the parchment book on the coffee table to the upstairs bedroom.

The sound of feet on the wooden floor suddenly sounded above his head.

Carlos was stunned, slowly raised his head, and stared at the ceiling above him suspiciously.

It was loud, it did seem to be the sound of someone walking on it, but it seemed to move a little slowly.

Da! It's very rhythmic.

It can't be the witch, no, the witch's room and the monster room are both in the direction of the staircase, and they shouldn't be above the head of the living room.

Carlos was secretly speculating, and his heart was slightly tense, but fortunately, he was not very flustered after the embarrassing experience of the morning.

The sound continued, followed by the creak of a wooden door being opened, followed by a muffled thunderous thud and the door slammed shut.

Carlos hadn't figured out what was going on.

Another 'squeak' sound came from the back of the second floor, and then a light and rapid footstep sounded in the corridor of the second floor.

A deep, deep voice sounded.

"Hey, Vivian, be quiet, there's a new guest today!"

Then a crunchy voice like a five or six-year-old girl replied, "Got it, I can't wait to meet him." ”

Carlos listened in horror to the strange noise of the stairs, and saw a light step on the stairs, and a figure rushed downstairs like the wind, and before he could see clearly, he seemed to be in front of him.

An enthusiastic voice rang out.

"Hey, new roommate? My name is Vivien. ”

When a thin figure about a meter tall slapped his arm and raised his head to greet him excitedly, Carlos reacted from his momentary stunnedness.

Carlos slowly lowered the gaslight, trying to get a good picture of the figure in front of him.

A burly figure as tall as a bull rose up the stairs again, and with heavy steps, appeared in front of him.
