As soon as Fabro died, the resistance in the manor van disappeared.

Slaves and guards fled in all directions, hoping to avoid the slaughter that followed—the struggle for power has always been brutal, often motivated by prestige, and the victors ruthlessly strangle the forces of the losers. Under the sharp edge, the innocent will inevitably be affected.

No one dares to bet on whether the 'merciful' Lord Hugo will be cleaned, and those who have legs will run away, and those who can't escape will kneel and beg for mercy.

Zhou Qingfeng stood quietly in front of Fabro's corpse, raised his hand and made a move, and his blood-stained staff flew up out of thin air. The book charm appeared in the back of his head, took the staff and carefully identified it, and multiple identification techniques and secret seal cracks were cast in turn.

Erin, a tree spirit who is not good at fighting, cautiously emerged from under the floor of the hall, and after the battle, she held a black box in both hands and offered it to Zhou Qingfeng with a sweet smile.

This black box was found at the tips of the manor steward. When the black box was opened, there was an oval gemstone the size of a quail egg, with a magnificent luster and a fantastical vision.

"It's the 'Emperor's Tears'." Seven little goblins jumped out one after another, flying around the gems in Zhou Qingfeng's palm. They flapped their wings, each chanted a short song, and a ray of light sank into the jewel.

"It's really 'Tears of the Emperor'." The goblins cheered again, "This is the best magic gem, and it's hard to find one of them in the world." It has a lot of incredible benefits. The simplest is to use it as a vehicle for high-level arcane. ”

Below level 3, arcane can be crafted into a scroll with delicate sheepskin as a carrier and the corresponding magic materials. Wizards have a limited number of spell slots they can prepare each day, and both scrolls and potions are equally important life-saving equipment.

However, the arcane above level 3 cannot use the parchment scroll as a carrier, and various levels of magic gems need to be used. Among them, the 'Emperor's Tears' is the best of the gems, which can be used to store the ninth level of arcane.

After the identification, the 'red-haired' goblin shouted, "Fabro's ability is not enough to use this gem. He used the 'Emperor's Tears' as the centerpiece of his main house. ”

Fabro secretly returned home and wanted to take refuge in his manor. But Zhou Qingfeng followed him and rebelled against his manor steward. Many of the means laid out in the manor were useless, and all fell into the hands of the enemy.

Sophia's identification and cracking of the staff has been completed. She whispered, "Master, do you want to activate the defense circle in the manor?" This circle is linked to the alchemy laboratory that Fabro has placed underground. ”

Zhou Qingfeng threw out the 'Emperor's Tears', "Let's start it, let's see what good things Fabro has?" ”

Sophia took the gem, held the staff in her hand, and whispered the secret spell she had broken. The 'Tears of the Emperor' flew up and automatically embedded themselves in the broken ceiling of the hall.

As a result, a circle of glare spread from the ceiling, causing the entire hall to vibrate slightly. Sophia inserted her staff into the middle of the hall like a key.

The stone bricks on the ground were shattered, and only one remained in place, which was extremely conspicuous. The staff was inserted into the stone brick and turned slightly, cracking the ground.

Bang bang bang bang...... several soft sounds in succession, and the four corner columns of the hall shattered. The pillar was hollow, and inside it were four gargoyles with horns and wings, fangs and claws.

The gargoyle's eyes opened, and a red light lit up. They flapped their wings and were about to pounce on Zhou Qingfeng, but with Sophia's low drink, they stopped again and landed beside Zhou Qingfeng obediently, becoming obedient slaves.

The gargoyle was only the first guard of the manor's defensive phalanx, cracking open beneath the ground revealing a diagonal staircase that housed the heart of Fabro, his alchemy laboratory.

In the laboratory, there are at least a dozen alchemical constructs that have been built at great expense. If Fabro is allowed to escape in, Zhou Qingfeng will definitely be beaten by him and run away with his life.

Zhou Qingfeng opened the five-pointed star pendant of the door of true knowledge and opened his alchemy workshop. The book immediately understood what her master meant, and the other strange maids chanted and cast spells together, to integrate Fabro's laboratory into the workshop.

As an alchemy wizard, Fabro's collection in the laboratory is quite diverse. Large and small specimen bottles fly out of the ground, constantly expanding the storage range of the workshop.

Montino stepped forward and said in amazement: "Your Excellency Hugo, your harvest is not small, it is certainly not small. Fabro was a well-known alchemist throughout the Northlands, and his family was very solid. ”

A specimen bottle flew in front of Zhou Qingfeng, and a large praying mantis was soaked in the embalming liquid. Mondino casually explained: "This is the red mantis, the xenomorph creature in the voodoo swamp. Fierce, territorial, but unfortunately a specimen. ”

Another specimen vial flew in, "Troll Eye, this thing is normal, and it's not very useful. I don't know where Fabro got it from. ”

The other was an oversized glass jar, taller than a human being, and it seemed to contain a large mass of gelatin. Mondino looked through the glass for a long time and didn't recognize what it was.

On the contrary, it was the book charm who floated over and replied, "Gummy monster, a kind of mud monster." This thing has no brains, only instincts. It eats almost everything, used by alchemists to dispose of garbage. ”

"Dispose of garbage?" Zhou Qingfeng recognized this strange creature through 'monster science', "How much can it handle?" ”

Sophia pursed her lips, "This thing is disgusting, and I haven't raised it." Usually wizards will keep this thing in the basement of their dwellings and feed it all kinds of mess.

In addition to metal, glass, stone, etc., the gelatinous monster is not afraid of other rags, wood and meat. It can eat it. Eat enough, and it will split and grow on its own. It's easy to kill it, just burn it in a high temperature. ”

It sounds like a fully automated garbage disposal station that is not picky.

Something floated out of the underground lab, black again. Mondino was excited when he saw this, "Your Excellency Hugo, I lost a fire demon skeleton before, and you said that you would compensate for it." I'm going to make amends. ”

The black stuff was like a mist.

Zhou Qingfeng frowned puzzled, and Shumei Sophia didn't recognize it. Instead, the 'Shadow' poked into his head through the broken window of the hall, "It's the Evil Spirit Group, the remnants of the consciousness of the vicious bloodthirsty after death, and the abyss is full of this thing." ”

It doesn't sound like a good thing, and if you get it, it's like a 'ghost'. Zhou Qingfeng didn't want it, so he gave it to Mundino.

The necromancer took out a bottle very carefully, and patiently manipulated the black mist into the bottle. He smiled happily, "I can use it to cultivate extremely fierce ghosts. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Qingfeng was even more insensitive to him.

Fabro's laboratory was gradually moved into the alchemy workshop, which was expanded to more than 150 square meters and increased the interior space.

Although the books and documents collected by this 'Alchemy Chief' are far inferior to those of the top elven libraries like the Gate of True Knowledge, there are also unexpected gains from careful searching.

Zhou Qingfeng found a richly decorated arcane tome from the bookshelf that Fabro often flipped through. He looked closely, and there were four large characters written on the cover of the book cover, in Netherrean - the Pink Book.

......, good baby, this book is interesting!

When Shumei saw it, she immediately said angrily: "Master, this kind of violation must be burned." ”

Zhou Qingfeng immediately took it in his arms and flatly refused: "This kind of treasure that runs through the entire history of civilization cannot be lost in my hands. Rest assured, I will definitely study it critically. It's like studying "The Golden Vase of Plums". ”

Shumei gritted her teeth in anger, "Master, you are too shameless. ”

"Thanks for the compliment."
