......

Lord's Castle Office.

It was two hours after listening to Sean's debriefing.

Overall, the trip went smoothly, as Zoe and Betty not only brought back ancient relics, but also ransacked the treasure trove of Grand Duke Island with the captured Divine Punishment Samurai, and piled up an entire cabin with all kinds of jewelry. At this point, the foundation of the original Hermes Church has been completely severed, and no matter which wolf-hearted nobleman occupies Grand Duke Island in the future, it will no longer have any connection with the church.

As for the companions, Caquin Fez, as soon as he got off the boat, said goodbye to the chief of the guard, and returned to the hotel with his disciples, as if he could not wait for the creation of a new script.

Church members Falina and Joe are imprisoned pending trial by the Grey Fort Security Service.

"I'll leave these two to you. Roland tilted his head and whispered.

The nightingale pinched him on the shoulder in understanding.

"So the rumored treasure...... Is the Ritual Cube in this lead box?" Roland looked at the gray box at Sean's feet, and according to Hagrid the Betrayer, it was about the size of a palm, like a cube made of stone, and he prepared the rescue team before setting off, considering the danger of highly radioactive materials.

"Yes, I took care of it myself, as you commanded, and did not let any third person except Zoe and Miss Betty touch it. Sean replied, "But before loading the lead box, I noticed an unusual sign. ”

"What signs?"

"Your Majesty, do you remember that I mentioned in my secret letter the reason why Lorenzo decided to send Hagrid to Cage Mountain to inquire about the information?"

Roland thought for a moment, "Because the treasure that hasn't changed in nearly a hundred years emits a blue light?"

"Exactly," Sean nodded, "and when Miss Zoe brought back the Rubik's Cube for the festival, she said something that made me very concerned and she said, "The blue light on it seems to be changing." So I looked a little more and noticed that the light was pointing at me all the time, like a compass. To be honest, I was so scared that I almost missed the Rubik's Cube and threw it on the ground. ”

This is almost the same as listening to a ghost story, Roland also felt furious in his heart, but his face still did not change, "You finally found out the reason?"

"Probably. Sean took something out of his arms and handed it to the mahogany table, "After calming down, I don't think an ancient relic is likely to react to an ordinary person, something must be wrong." After some investigation, I found out that it was not me, but the coin. ”

It was the highly enriched uranium coin used to find the source of the mine, which was handed over to Sean after Azima returned to Neverwinter.

In other words, the festival Rubik's Cube will re-emit light because it senses uranium coins?

That's kind of interesting......

Roland pondered for a moment before speaking, "I see. This mission is very well done, you can go down and rest first. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

After Sean retreated, the nightingale emerged from the fog and stepped forward to look around the lead box.

"What, did you find anything?"

"It's a magical creation. "It looks like an unpolished stone, but it's definitely not that simple." In the mist, I saw a glow similar to that of a magical cyclone, just like the magical core in the hands of the Witch of Tachira. ”

Sure enough, Roland thought to himself, the impact of magic on this world may be more profound than he imagined. Unfortunately, judging from the information available so far, there are huge differences in the research and application of it by various ethnic groups, and it is difficult to carry out systematic research in the absence of analytical means.

However, he also knows that empirical formulas are also formulas, and it is better than nothing, just as before the advent of classical mechanics, people still created various tools through observation and practice, and now that there is a new object of observation, it is natural to explore it.

"Let's go to the Third Frontier City," he said, "and I don't know if Selene has a dedicated laboratory ready." ”

In any case, this cursed relic should not have been left in the castle until it was absolutely safe.

......

"Why are you back again?" Entering the underground hall, Pasha quickly greeted her, "Is there something wrong with the new weapon?"

Roland shook his head, "The cave I commissioned Selene to expand before, where is it now?"

"Ah, are you talking about the metal chamber, which is almost complete except for the elevator. She's in the Chamber of Secrets right now, would you like to go over and have a look?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Pasha bent her beard, "Please follow me. 」

When Roland decided to send a witch to Wolfheart a week ago, it also made Selene begin preparing the necessary facilities for research: a fully enclosed laboratory hidden deep underground.

If the festival cube really produces high-energy rays, as he thought, then testing it on the ground is undoubtedly a very risky thing. Considering that Nanawa's treatment effect on radiation sickness is unknown for the time being, it is naturally better to be cautious.

Following the primordial carrier all the way down, Roland roughly recounted what happened in the wolf's heart.

"I see," Pasha laughed, "Leaving it to Selene is indeed the best choice, whether it is the study of magic powers, or the dismantling and restoration of relics, she is the best in the Quest Society. After changing into this body, her skills have risen by more than one level, others I dare not say, but Selene may be the only one who took the initiative to choose to merge with the carrier before Taqira showed signs of defeat. 」

"Hah......" Nightingale said with a grim expression, "You mean, she prefers ...... to her original body Tentacle sarcoma?"

"If that helps you explore the secrets of the world. Pasha shook her tentacles, "When she was still in the Secret Society, the biggest complaint she complained about was that she didn't have enough hands, her body was too tired, and if she had mastered the soul transfer technique at that time, it was really hard to say what choice she would have made. 」

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the downward passage came to an end, and a large vertical hole appeared in front of the three of them.

"This is the entrance, but the elevator will take a few days to be installed," Pasha lowered her beard, "Please climb up." 」

"Uh...... Is this the only way to go down?" the nightingale looked at the countless writhing whiskers on the other side's body, and seemed a little stunned.

"It's the quickest way to do it," Pasha reassured, "don't worry, don't look at those short whiskers, they're actually quite flexible, and they won't break when you step on them." 」

Roland took a deep breath and climbed up the top of the carrier's head along the whiskers, he thought it would be as hairy as being caught in a swarm of worms, but it was actually as soft as a carpet to the touch.

When the nightingale had climbed up, Pasha moved into the hole and slid swiftly towards the bottom of the hole.

After descending nearly a hundred meters, she slowly stopped her figure, and a laboratory reflecting the cold luster of metal slowly appeared in front of Roland's eyes.
