Accompanied by lightning and thunder, heavy rain fell in the evening, making it dark half an hour earlier.

After an early dinner, Lawrence, the owner of Goenburg, was very interested in not going any further, but arranging the best rooms for the so-called Carriage and Fatigue Kane to rest.

In this era of backward infrastructure, not to mention riding a horse, even the bumps in the car are enough to make ordinary people feel miserable.

Of course, for Kane, such a problem is almost non-existent.

The maid put down the fruit bowl, saluted, and withdrew. Kane walked to the window, looked out at the pouring rain, and fell into deep thought.

Amanda was invited by Madame Goun to visit the castle, which was quite large.

The Blood Banner Guard was on the back of its seat as usual, including outside Kane's room, where people stood guard. The castle was lit by oil lamps, which was not very bright, and the light around the Blood Banner was even more dim, which was the result of the exchange of energy with the outside world.

Including the people of the Holy Sect, they only saw the fierceness of the Blood Banner Guard, but they didn't know that the real value was actually the armor on their bodies.

These crystalline armors are also the product of dark alchemy.

In his previous life, when Kane was a mortal in the Origin World, he looked at {The Lord of the Rings} and saw that Saruman made strong orcs, digging eggs with only a flexible membrane from the mire, and inside were the bred strong orcs.

He thought it was cool, it was like a Western-style bean sprinkling into a soldier.

Later, he also specially turned the original book, and about this paragraph, it was written like this: ...... They emerge from the ground like maggots......

After this information existed in his mind, he later embarked on the road of insect swarms, and inevitably compared his own system with Saruman's mud egg monsters, and felt that from a magical point of view, it was still a step higher than other people's technology.

And this comparison can be said to be an important source of power for the germination of the art of alchemy.

Consumables, low energy consumption, high practicability of creation, easy collection of resources, waste can be used.

This is the direction Kane has always pursued.

Later, these goals were summed up in a concept: information is supreme, technology is king, and the ability to give things information as easily and efficiently as possible.

This is the direction of the technical system he pursues.

Alchemy, to a considerable extent, has achieved this. Ordinary stone and wood have become high-quality creations because of the enrichment of information.

Crystal iron, the raw material is ore to put it bluntly, and the shape is shaped through the art of shaping, which is almost the same as Saruman's strong orcs, after the refining is completed, the very brittle stone shell is broken, and the armor parts inside are exposed.

Even the true red cloak is woven with vine fibers.

Once they are created, they can also be improved by continuous energy penetration.

These golems themselves have no potential to rise, but external pendants can. After the puppet is scrapped, a new war insect will take over the creation and make good use of it.

This is the characteristic of the iron-blooded swarm system when extraordinary energy and resources are relatively abundant. It is no longer the model of having to build a large factory in order to mass-produce puppets, but like carrying a production line with you, as long as you have resources, you can start working at any time.

The same goes for the wizards of the convoy, who place their magic carpets on the ground in the rest room arranged by Lawrence, and then sit cross-legged on them, draining their energy.

For them, this is the equivalent of charging, and for the objects they carry, it is a sacrifice.

"Father, those people don't laugh when they feel weird. Lawrence's youngest son, Jim, pointed to the Blood Flag Guard standing like a javelin in the rain.

The Blood Banner guard had been standing motionless for hours beside Kane's car, and he would continue to stand like this, depending on what that meant it.

"It's a bit weird, but on the other hand, they're all people with extraordinary powers, and it's not surprising that such people have habits that we think are quirks. ”

"Standing still like this means that you have extraordinary strength? I don't think Cynthia can do it, but she's obviously not much stronger than me. ”

Instead of correcting the difference between extraordinary strength and great strength, Lawrence grasped the point of Jim's leakage and asked, "Have you ever seen Cynthia stand motionless for a long time?

Cynthia is Lawrence's second daughter, who was disliked by him and neglected to discipline her since she was a child. In Lawrence's perception, Cynthia was wooden and withdrawn, but in general she was kind.

But standing motionless for hours would have been a bit too much, especially during the sensitive period of the witch rebellion in the neighboring town of Red Maple Castle.

As soon as Lawrence asked, Jim also realized that he had slipped his mouth, and muttered in annoyance: "I promised Cynthia not to say it." ”

However, children are always easy to coax, especially the father and son have a good relationship, in Jim's name, Lawrence is not a majestic father, but a kind father who can be spoiled, so Lawrence easily learned some special circumstances from Jim's mouth.

Lawrence immediately realized that Cynthia was likely to be 'witched', which is simply understood to be manipulated by witches and become a medium for witchcraft, so that she has a certain degree of ability to use witchcraft.

If this kind of thing happened in the past, Lawrence would probably shoulder the burden on his shoulders, try not to alarm too many people, and strive to solve the problem quickly.

But this time it was different, the situation in Red Maple Castle made him very worried, and the strength shown by Kane and his party made him extremely relieved.

After some thought, he finally decided to be a disgusting landlord and bother the distinguished guests.

As a result, he was still a few steps away from Kane's door, and Kane took the initiative to come out.

"Sir Goun, I was looking for you. I'm afraid something bad has happened here. Kane said this very directly, and glanced at Jim, who was following Lawrence.

Lawrence was stunned: "You know everything?"

Kane frowned slightly, he realized that Lawrence should have misunderstood, what he said should not be the same thing as Lawrence coming to him.

"What are you here for? Long story short. ”

Lawrence organized the language and said, "Your guard stood motionless in the rain for hours, and my son and I used this as a topic to inadvertently lead to my daughter Cynthia having done something similar, and combined with other details that I didn't know before, I suspect that Cynthia was controlled by a witch. ”

Kane nodded, glanced at Jim again, and understood Lawrence's intentions in bringing his son over.

Theoretically, children should not be involved in this kind of thing.

But Jim's testimony is important, not only because it is possible to dig up more useful information, but also to prove that this is not a playhouse orchestrated by Lawrence, but a real emergency.

Another reason is that Lawrence realizes that if there is really a problem with witch control, it is relatively safer for the younger son to take with him.

Kane said: "Your guess is most likely correct. Baroness Peyton is no longer in Goenburg, and there are related spells, so I'm pretty sure of that. I was about to send you away, and you arrived by yourself. ”

Immediately there was sweat on Lawrence's head.

Kane waved his hand: "No need to apologize, the witch controls Cynthia, of course, it is a plot to rob you of Goenburg, but if something like this happens, it should have something to do with my arrival." After all, when it comes to the roots, what the witches are doing is nothing more than profit, and they probably think that they can get a richer ransom from me. ”

Kane is so reasonable, Lawrence naturally doesn't want to talk about those unnutritious words anymore, and said respectfully: "If there is anything I can serve, please give me orders." ”

"Well, yes, you can stay with me to deal with all kinds of trivial matters. ”

As he spoke, Kane's Dark Wizard appeared.

Kane commanded, "Four guards, two mages, protect Jim Goun." ”

"Thank you, thank you!" Lawrence hurriedly thanked. What he is most concerned about now is his little son. The wives are average, because this wife is not the original match, and she only entered the door three years ago. Although Lawrence also likes it, he does not have the passion of his youth, nor the family affection accumulated over the years, and his affection is much worse than the original match.

Kane didn't talk much nonsense, and reached out and nodded Jim, which meant to settle down quickly.

So Lawrence told his son that he was just to be obedient or something.

His son was very well-behaved, and although he was obviously a little afraid of Kane's subordinates, he solemnly agreed to Lawrence, promising to be obedient.

Kane watched this scene silently from the sidelines, and said to Lawrence at the end: "Once upon a time, I was also a good boy like Jim, because of my frailty and ordinary talent, I was often frustrated among my peers......"

As he spoke, Kane snapped his left little finger and handed it to Jim. "I'm Kane Sun, Nature's Contractor, and I'll give you a chance to become a transcendent, and it's up to you whether you can grasp it or not. ”

Kane's approach scared Jim a bit, and he cowered a little and kept looking at Lawrence, as if trying to gain courage from his father.

Lawrence knew that the legendary fortune had come, but he couldn't do too much, so he could only use encouraging eyes to encourage his son to seize the opportunity.

Jim finally chose to accept it, his reason is also very simple, before at the dinner, Kane's hand in making the holy silver dagger in public, in Jim's opinion, is very cool, he yearns for it.

Jim stretched out his little hand tremblingly and took the little thumb wrapped around the rune moon cloth.

Then I found that the little finger had changed, like fangs, like a horn model, golden, with the luster of jade, and the thick end had holes, which were pierced by a thin rope, and it was clearly a pendant.

"Thank you, teacher. Jim had begun to read and could barely understand what Kane had just said. Say thank you right away.

Lawrence looked at his son with a loving gaze. Heart said this teacher, but it is more cost-effective than getting any gift, at the critical moment, my son is very powerful, and the future is destined to be extraordinary, so why didn't I see it before?

Kane was in a special situation and didn't quite understand the emotions caused by the instinct to reproduce, but that didn't stop him from feeling the warmth of the moment.

If he is his ontology, he will not be so casual and uncalm. And his temperament is highly similar to the ontology, and he is also self-disciplined, but he has the mind to try different choices, so when he makes choices, he is more emotional, more prodigal, and even a little deliberate.

In his mind, this is actually a kind of mood experience, and when he returns, these memories are shared with the ontology, which can improve the problem of the ontology's cold temperament and rationality.

Settling Jim, Kane casts a levitation spell on Lawrence, and then moves through the mansion like a ribbon.

It has been more than ten generations of efforts to have a recent scale, with dozens of corridors and more than 200 rooms.

Fortunately, Kane has a spell to track Amanda's residual aura, plus he can also determine the point of the incident through the changes in the magic in the area caused by the spell, so he doesn't need to investigate one by one, and quickly finds the place of the incident.

It was a secret room that hadn't been used in a long time.

The chamber had been a refuge, and there was a living well in the modest room.

"After an earthquake that wasn't very strong, the well dried up. It should be that there has been a change in the groundwater veins. This was almost a hundred years ago. I also found out when I was bored and flipped through the family annals. ”

Kane stood at the mouth of the well and looked down.

For him, darkness is not a problem, and the following situation can be seen clearly.

The well is not deep, only four or five meters, and the inner diameter of the underground water vein can accommodate a child like Jim to crawl, which is too reluctant to be used as a secret passage.

From the perspective of energy residuals, it is not a power-hungry spell such as teleportation magic.

In addition, he blessed Amanda with some near-constant buff effects, and Amanda cannot be confused or transformed.

In this way, the way of leaving seems rather bizarre......
