Act 304. Hidden alchemy laboratory

The soil gradually dissolves in the solvent, from which a psychedelic smoke-like thing is released, swirling in an orange-yellow solution.

A little magic spilled out of the beaker, and Phyllis's hand brushed lightly over the beaker, and she seemed to smell it and nodded in satisfaction.

"Sure enough, Aunt Selia's villa has indeed carried out many alchemy experiments, and the soil here has absorbed a lot of residual magic in the air, even if those plants are planted, it is difficult to hide it."

Aunt Selia's backyard is home to several different kinds of flowers, which decorate the yard, but those who are familiar with magic know that these plants are also used as materials for many alchemical potions, and they have a certain amount of magical precipitation, but few people may be able to go further and realize that these seemingly randomly planted magical plants are actually to hide the traces of alchemy experiments condensed in the soil.

It's a pity that after all, she was affected by those magical plants, and Phyllis couldn't analyze what alchemy experiments were carried out in that villa.

"Certainly, there are a few rooms in the villa that are clearly set up with the alchemy workshop in mind."

Behind Phyllis, Halleyson said lightly, as you can see in the urban planning and design drawings, this villa has undergone many renovations, but there are a few rooms that are designed to be ordinary at first glance, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that it was remodeled for the alchemy workshop, and it is certain that in Aunt Selia's villa, alchemy experiments must have been carried out.

"I originally thought that my father was an old man who was addicted to money, but now it seems that he is also very well-informed in the wizarding world."

Phyllis pulled a cigarette out of the tin box, struck a match and lit it, and took a deep breath.

"Macon. Hydaxia, I didn't expect Aunt Selia to be involved with this guy. ”

On the other side of the table is a stack of documents, and you can see the top few photos.

One of them was a dark-blue-haired man, dressed in a mage robe with four gold trims on his cuffs, walking down the road with a few books in his arms. Hydahia.

On another document, it is clearly shown that Macon. Hydaxia is a member of the Serpent of Chaos, and may even be the most central figure.

"Raven also has a nasty smell on his body, could he have been bewitched by the people of the Chaos Serpent?"

Phyllis frowned slightly, she knew that Big Brother Raven was not as cowardly as he seemed on the surface, but she didn't expect that he would get involved with those crazy people.

"Certainly, Lord Raven has a distinct aura of the Chaos Serpent on his body, similar to the reaction in Lord Selia's mansion."

Halleyson replied, not making out the slightest wave of emotion.

"Coming to the Ian Gray family one after another, and even directly participating in the battle for the heir this time, what do those guys want to do?"

Phyllis spat out a smoke ring, white smoke swirling around her, revealing a hazy feeling.

"Anyway, now we have to find Macon's traces first, he may have used Aunt Celia to accomplish something, and he has to be careful of Raven, the Chaos Serpent next to him is likely to be here to investigate this matter."

Having made a conclusion, Phyllis frowned slightly, and thought of the brother who had a huge contrast between the front and back.

"As for Reiner, he doesn't seem to know anything yet, he just hopes nothing happens."

Hearing Phyllis's whisper, Halleyson, who was standing behind her, was silent.

......

When I arrived at Aunt Selia's mansion, the afternoon sun hit the side of the building, leaving a deep shadow on the ground, and the villa on one side was shining brightly, and the villa on the other side was dim, forming a strong contrast.

Chandler, the butler, stood in the hall, seeming to wait for a long time.

There were obvious traces of rummaging in the room, and many things were placed in a more messy position than Reiner had seen before, and it seemed that the second brother Hailar had turned this place upside down, but as you can imagine, nothing was gained.

Reiner first walked down the hall to the backyard, where he took a sample of dirt and experimented with it, and soon came to the conclusion that the room was indeed a regular place for alchemical experiments.

"According to the descriptions of people around him, Macon had a habit of closing his doors on weekends, and he was also seen going out in a horse-drawn carriage, and contacted that there was no alchemy workshop in his house, and I think he was conducting experiments in Aunt Selia's house."

"The two have known each other for a long time, before Aunt Selia left the Ian Greben house, what consensus should have been reached a long time ago, and then they met in Olmster?"

"The effect of Macon's potions is stronger than others, it should be that his own mixing methods are more superb, he has extremely high alchemy skills, it is impossible for Aunt Celia to only mix potions for colds, these are used to disguise his identity."

"After Aunt Celia's death, Macon immediately erased the existence of the alchemy laboratory in the house, and left Olmsted because of the loss of supporters? Or was there a conflict between the two, with Macon killing Aunt Celia and running away? ”

Reiner recounted the information he had learned so far, and he and Claire came to what might have been the Alchemy Laboratory, which was now two rooms.

Reiner hadn't studied it closely, but now that he had a goal, he soon discovered that in the corner of the room, the walls covered by the freshly painted paint bore signs of alchemical corrosion, something that only those who were in regular contact with the potions could see.

He and Claire found some more traces, and it was almost certain that these two rooms were originally alchemy laboratories.

By confirming this, many doubts can be solved, and most of them are in line with Reiner's speculation.

Macon and Aunt Celia met many years ago, Macon's research aroused Aunt Celia's interest, and they kept in touch after that, and later, Aunt Celia left the family and settled in Olmster, where Macon was also located, and there was no contact between the two on the surface, but in fact, Macon had been conducting alchemy experiments at Aunt Celia's house.

This life lasted until half a month ago, when Aunt Selia died of illness, Macon for some special reason erased the traces of his own visit here and left Olmster, and his father Winchester may have known these things to some extent, so he asked the heir candidates who had left home to gather to find the traces left by Macon.

But thinking of this, Reiner had a trace of unnatural feeling, he thought about it, and finally did not mention it, but secretly kept a heart.
