Under the glow of the sunset, the street floor is slightly muddy due to the melting snow.

Dressed in a tweed coat, Joyce, along with Elena and Teresa, left the Traveler's Bar early.

"Mr. Cliff, I'll leave it to you to gather heavy firepower. As Elena and Teresa called for the carriage, Joyce whispered to the bearded man who came along.

"Wrap it around me. ”

Cliff smiled and nodded, as if he would treat it as an important matter.

After getting into the cab, Elena first sent the coachman to the cane shop on First Avenue and bought Joyce a new pine round-tipped cane before returning to the bungalow at 46 Abby Cross.

"Someone is following. ”

The white-haired girl Teresa was wary and looked behind her back in the carriage.

"Don't care. ”

Joyce knew that Teresa was talking about a carriage behind her, and he knew who was sitting in it.

When the rental carriage in which Joyce and the three were riding stopped at the door of the western-style building, and a carriage behind it also stopped, Yarlin was seen carrying a suitcase and stepped out of the car.

"It's him again. ”

Elena has some opinions about Arrin and does not want Joyce to be with him often.

"Yarlin, you don't want to eat at our house again, do you?"

Joyce looked at Arlin, then teased with a smile.

"I've been busy since last night, and with the addition of a day, I'm really a little overwhelmed!" Jarrin looked pained, implying that Joyce was also responsible.

Entering the mansion with Arlin, Joyce went directly to the second floor.

With a handyman maid at home to cook dinner, Elena and Teresa can also help out, and Joyce has a lot of peace of mind.

"Is it going well?"

Joyce, through the ability of his left eye, watched Arrin take two small packages from the aisle beam at the back door of the ballroom and deal with them, but he still deliberately asked.

"There's nothing wrong with things, I've copied them in a parchment notebook. ”

Arrin nodded, not rushing to open the suitcase, because Joyce hadn't locked the door to the study.

"I'll take care of it myself. ”

Joyce did not object to Arrlin's self-transcription of the parchment notes.

"I've looked up some information before, and the liquid-like mysterious properties are probably related to the mechanical heart, and if you let Elena absorb it, it might be good for her. Arrin told Joyce what he knew.

"What is a mechanical heart, and if the heart becomes mechanical, wouldn't it be too strange. Joyce was concerned about asking, but he was thinking more about the left eye of the compass.

"The heart is made into a mechanical heart, that is the secret officer, the meaning of taking organs, you should not see anything in normal times, once the power of the secret officer is opened, the combat power will increase significantly, I have heard before, when the arcane era, there was another similar thing, that is, the demon bone. Yarlin explained solemnly.

"Bell! bell!"

As Joyce pondered, the handymaid Laren Strong knocked on the door to the study.

"Come in. ”

Joyce leaned back in the leather chair and beckoned outside.

Seeing the handyman bring two glasses of orange juice, Joyce thought she was thinking about the beginning of dinner.

"The secret officer I just mentioned is just my guess, because in addition to this mysterious legacy, the old mechanic also secretes a mysterious trait after his death, if you give it to Elena, you have to let her be careful and careful, once she can't hold on, it is likely to cause loss of control and death. After the handyman maid went out, Arrin took a deep breath and said.

"I see. ”

Joyce drank the juice and pondered calmly.

"What are you going to do with these two things, if you don't get it, you'll be killed, get out of this door, and I won't bring it up again in the future. Yarlin cautiously handed over the suitcase.

Joyce didn't give Arrin an answer, as if he hadn't figured out what to do.

Placing the suitcase in the study, Joyce led Yarlin downstairs first.

"Shredded chicken rolls, lamb chops, your dinner is okay!" looked at the food on the table, Yarlin exclaimed.

"In the future, I will cook more meals, and if I can't eat them, let Ms. Laren take them home. "Joyce takes good care of her own people, and thinks the maid does a good job.

"Thank you, Mr. Joyce, for your generosity. ”

The handyman maid who was busy in the restaurant was a little surprised at first when she heard Joyce's statement, and then reacted and couldn't hide her expectant thanks.

"I hope this damn winter will pass soon. ”

Arrin raised the glass from which Gérti had poured wine and smiled at the trio.

Theresa didn't say much about the two pseudo-gentlemen, Arrin and Joyce, getting together.

It was difficult to meet each other, and Joyce remembered very well that when he first arrived at the MIA, the white-haired girl Teresa was quite enthusiastic.

After dinner, Joyce sent Arrin away, lamenting that he was very good at camping day by day.

Without saying hello to Elena and Teresa, Joyce took advantage of the gap between the two girls and went to the basement with her things.

When it comes to locking doors and plugging cracks, Joyce is already familiar with it.

Opening the suitcase in the basement, Joyce saw the parchment notes, as well as a glass bottle containing a mercury-like liquid.

The thought of the large size of the Yarlin, which was used to encapsulate the mercury-like liquid, made Joyce somewhat uncomfortable, though now in a glass bottle.

"What good is the mysterious substance secreted by the old mechanic to me?" Joyce muttered quietly, ignoring Elena.

In the case of not being able to carry the mysterious substance like mercury with him, Joyce had only two options, one was to use a metal figure to absorb the mysterious substance, and the second was to find a buyer to dispose of it.

"Now there are five hundred gold luo in the bank, and the land deeds, medicinal herbs, and the exchange price of the things that Frankie and Cliff have taken back, and it is not a big problem for me to divide the thousand gold luo. Joyce hesitated and removed the silver necklace pendant from her neck.

"Huh?"

Joyce was just about to flip a fruit embedded in the pendant of the lock coffin, looked at the dense cracks in the lock coffin, and then looked at the drop of mercury-like liquid in the glass bottle, and couldn't help but have a certain association.

"I've just heard of people absorbing mysterious properties, I don't know if the secret is okay, this lock coffin is delicate inside, and the mercury-like liquid seems to be the way from the mechanical church. Joyce's eyes moved, and he first pushed open the coffin box, and urged the secret qi to release the metal figure in the locked coffin.

After the last contact with the metal figure, Joyce was much more cautious this time, not only shut up the metal figure, but also dared not think that the metal figure would absorb the mysterious substance like mercury.

"The secret is nothing out of the ordinary. ”

Putting the metal figure in the corner of the basement, Joyce didn't relax in the slightest.

"Out. ”

Joyce tried to infuse the locked coffin in his hand with the aura of Essence and Shadowcrack.

The tiny cracks in the inside of the locked coffin gradually wriggled into shadow cracks, emitting towards the surface of the coffin.

"These shadow cracks are likely to be part of the factors preventing the coffin from recovering. Joyce thought of the shadow on Angela's shoulder disappearing, and the flesh from the wound reborn.

Let the cracks on the surface of the coffin be densely increased, and the internal gears, machinery, and fine ancient Owen structures should be repaired, which is what Joyce considered to be a more ideal state.

"Sure enough!"

Through the ability of his eyes, and perception beyond ordinary people, Joyce discovered that once the shadow of the cracks inside the locked coffin was detached, the tiny ancient Owen on the metal gears and mechanical structures were intermittently linked together to emit a faint brilliance.

Joyce didn't wait any longer, opened the lid of the glass bottle, and poured the mysterious mercury-like substance on the surface of the coffin on a shadowless crack.

The silver-like liquid changed shape upon contact with the lock coffin, gradually seeping into a crack in the lock coffin.

"A strange mysterious substance, can it make metal grow?" Joyce still did not stop pouring the secret qi into the coffin until the mercury-like liquid seeped into the coffin.

In Joyce's perception, a crystalline mist of silver liquid passed through, as if it had melted into the metal, and the cracks inside the coffin were closing.

"It's done. ”

Joyce flicked the other eleven fruits from a raised tree on the surface of the coffin, already making a greasy sound.

The spaces inside the locked coffin rotate, and each space has a depression against the coffin.

Joyce could feel that as the space inside the coffin turned, the cracks inside the locked coffin were also accelerating to recover.

"Don't print it on me. ”

Joyce's palm holding the lock coffin pendant spread out wriggling shadow cracks, like maggots, making people tingle to watch.

"I didn't have time to find a carrier that could carry the Shadow Crack, I'm afraid that once the Shadow Crack is sealed, the surface of the coffin can't bear it, what should I do, do I want to release it in the basement?" Joyce was a little anxious.

"That guy. ”

Joyce thought of a man, and with his left eye trying to concentrate, he quickly walked to the corner of the basement and picked up the metal figure and packed it in a suitcase.

The shoulder holster was on Joyce's body, and the nest of the Saorun pistol, although it was not a demon hunting bullet, was also filled with six ordinary bullets.

The silver necklace was hung around his neck again, and while the compass brilliance of Joyce's left eye was staggered, he picked up a towel and tied it to his face, pinning a dagger to his waist and holding a dagger in his hand.

"Is this scum going to hurt people again?"

Through the strange ability of his left eye, Joyce saw that Sean Redmay, the gang leader, was on the third floor of the Iron and Blood Firm, about to do something wrong to the girl in the black dress on the bed.

"Buzz!"

As the compass in Joyce's left eye stopped turning, ripples of light emanated from his pupils.

"Rushed. ”

Joyce, who had the experience of stealing a leather bag for the first time and the young slave for the second time, jumped into a ripple of light with a single step under his feet.

"Whew!"

After Joyce entered the ripples, he only felt that there was light around his body that was rapidly receding, as if he was crossing space.

"I'm going to the room on the third floor of the Iron and Blood Firm. ”

Under pressure, Joyce's left eye did not dare to relax in the slightest, still watching Sean Redmay's actions.
