Chapter 42 Academic Research

Roy waited quietly for Pierre's answer, but he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is it too troublesome, I don't think I can help you." ”

Roy was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "Don't bother, I also want you to help me find someone, the approximate location has been determined, and I need to use your ability to narrow down the range." ”

"Ah, find someone! Without much hesitation, Pierre agreed.

Before Carey finished cooking the steak, the two agreed on it, and Roy only asked Pierre to find his cousin.

Pierre asked to send a few guards to follow him, and he told Roy that he wasn't very good at fighting.

After asking each other for some details, they began to wait for Kerry's steak.

Carey didn't know how to make the steak, but after pouring olive oil, he kept turning it over.

Every few minutes, she cuts the beef with a knife to see if it's cooked inside, and Belle helps control the heat.

Without a steady source of fire, cooking became much more difficult, and he ended up serving slices of charred steak.

The steak that I thought was medium-rare became medium-rare.

Let him realize that it's time to get a source gas stove?

However, this idea was only fleeting, if Sylvie could agree to let him study the ability, his understanding of the flame source text would be raised to a higher level, and the small source qi stove would naturally be no problem.

Roy quietly finished eating his share before commenting: "The steak is a good steak, it's a pity ......"

"Oh, by the way, it doesn't matter if you really can't develop a new firearm, after all, we're more here to drag the other side's living force and facilitate your actions. ”

Carey didn't care much about Roy's evaluation, but nodded indifferently: "Okay, in fact, the piece of White Eagle Fort is still good, the ranch resources are very rich, but that baron is not good at management." ”

"Of course I know, but I'm afraid it's difficult, not to mention whether it can be beaten or not, even if it is defeated, the viscount will definitely come over and intervene. ”

Carey nodded in agreement, "By the way, did I tell you what Father Carter got about?"

Roy shook his head blankly.

As Carey spoke, he suddenly realized that there was another outsider here, eating steak with his head bored, and almost forgot about it.

"I'll tell you about it in the evening. ”

......

In the afternoon, Carey met Sylvie, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and brought a gift.

Sylvie was concentrating on writing something in the room, when she heard the movement outside the door, and came out to take a look, a little surprised.

"Hey, busy man, Mr. Carey, I've been to the tavern several times and Belle is the only one. ”

"She is a sensible and hard-working girl, and I am relieved to leave the tavern to her. Carey snorted, then took out the gift: "This is a gift for you, of course I hope you like it." ”

"Well, why?" Sylvie asked instead of accepting, a little confused.

"I have some questions I want to discuss with you, but I'm afraid it's difficult for some strong people. Carey said with a slight embarrassment.

"You might as well talk about it, maybe I'll think about it?"

"That's right, I'd like to study the flame source text, but ......"

"You mean you want to study my abilities?" Sylvie raised her voice slightly.

"Ah, sorry, this might be a bit abrupt......"

"Maybe it's a good idea?" Sylvie smiled, "I wasn't sure before, you're an alchemist, right? ”

"What do you mean?" asked Carry, a little inexplicably.

"Don't you know that every supernatural person actually only knows the source text that can combine their own abilities, for example, I only know seven symbols. ”

"And the way I can find to improve my abilities is to keep looking for alignments between them, but that's certainly very difficult. ”

"You alchemists are different, you can manifest symbols, you can freely try combinations, I let you study all my flame symbols, you help me improve my abilities. ”

"Wait, don't you like fighting?"

"But I don't want to be tied down in the face of a crisis. Sylvie casually rubbed a fireball: "And, don't you think that's cool?"

Carey was silent for a moment and nodded happily: "This is a win-win thing, I have no reason to refuse." ”

He tasted it carefully, and said with some doubts, "How do you know so much?"

"A long time ago, I met an alchemist who had traveled all over the world, and he pointed me in the direction of my ascension, that was a few years ago, and I had only reached this level until now, and I felt that my abilities had stagnated for a long time. ”

Carey wiped her sweat silently, whether it was strong or not, but it also explained Sylvie's desire when she found out that the Source Stone could slightly increase her abilities.

If he hadn't learned alchemy, he might have opened a grocery store with his powers.

"Thank you very much for informing me, please accept this gift. ”

Sylvie nodded, with a smile on the corner of her mouth that couldn't be hidden, and carefully opened the gift: "The gifts I received are really handful." ”

It was a long fiery red dress, and Sylvie slid her fingers lightly over the cosy silk satin, the soft touch felt like nothing.

"Thank you, I like it very much, it's the best gift I've ever received, but I'm afraid it's hard for me to have the opportunity to wear it. ”

"Why don't you try it now? I'm honored to be so highly rated, it's a recognition of my vision. ”

The fabric of the dress was brought by Mrs. Mary according to a traveling merchant, and this one alone cost ten gold coins.

Of course, this is not a big problem, and when the cannon is built, you can ask Roy for reimbursement.

"I'll try it first, you wait a minute. Sylvie trotted into the room with her clothes in hand, and with a small sound she walked out of the room barefoot.

The long red hair fell naturally and draped over her shoulders, and she carefully held the edge of the red dress with both hands, not wanting it to drag on the ground and become dirty.

The style of the upper body is tightened, and the advantages of her figure are perfectly displayed.

Carey looked up and down, and couldn't help but praise: "It's very good-looking, it's very suitable for you." ”

Sylvie bowed gracefully: "Thank you very much for the gift, I like it very much." ”

After changing back into her usual clothes, Sylvie seemed to be in a happier mood: "Shall we start now?"

"If I could, I hope so. ”

"Then let's go to the basement, I want to show all the symbols, I probably can't stand it, and if I go to the basement, the impact will be less. ”

"Of course, I will also arrange a few protective source texts to prevent accidents. ”

Sylvie took off her coat, leaving only a cool lining, and led Carey into the basement.

Carey looked away in embarrassment and silently admonished himself: "Research, academic research." ”

......

After an afternoon of observation and research, Carey helped Sylvie out of the basement in the evening.

Her face was a little pale, her clothes soaked with sweat, and she was visibly out of strength.

But Carey's mind was full of the ever-changing arrangement of the seven runes.

This afternoon was too great for him, after all, it was a direct demonstration of Sylvie's ability to tap into himself in the past few years.

"Then you take a rest, I'll go back first, it's hard today. ”

"Hmm...... If there's anything you catch, let me know and say hello to Belle for me. ”
