Chapter 103: The Ishmael Building
Of course, they also erected bronze statues of other great alchemists throughout the city.
There were shops on both sides of the street that bought and sold all kinds of materials, which reminded him of people who sold medicines.
He could see that large pharmacies were also selling large quantities of potions.
Conou and Eder are crossing the road.
"There are two great places to gather information," Conou said. Myron Library and the Society of Alchemists. ”
"Should we investigate separately?"
"Yes, that's for the best. I went to the Alchemist Society. ”
Conor prefers to meet and talk to people rather than clumsily reading books in the library.
"Then I'll go to Myron's Library. ”
"Okay. If you find something, come over right away. If I find something, I'll call you immediately. ”
"Understood. ”
The two parted ways.
Conou went straight to the Alchemists' Guild.
The Myron Alchemists' Guild is the main headquarters of the guild, so the place is huge.
Perhaps this explains why this place is full of players and the NPC.
"If you want to become an alchemist, collect these materials. ”
"Understood. ”
A player who seems new accepts the quest and leaves the guild.
"Please show me the spell of alchemy. ”
It seems that the player with the alchemy pot is trying to learn new alchemy abilities.
"Hmm. ”
Conou wants to know how he gathers information in the crowd.
He can't just pull a guy out of the crowd and ask them about Kudar's house like an idiot.
That would just scream, "Hey, I'm looking for something." "At the risk of getting his attention.
Conou looked around. He didn't see anyone who could give him the information he was looking for, so he went upstairs.
The second floor is quieter than the first floor. Con looked around again.
There was an old man sitting in a chair.
The old man was wearing a white robe stained with various chemicals.
"This is a National People's Congress alchemist. ”
Cono approached the old man.
"Hello. ”
Con O's smiled politely.
"Mom. I've never seen your face before. ”
The old man swept his face.
"Yes. I was here a few days ago. ”
"Really, what do you want from me?"
"I just want to get to know the city. Ah, and ......."
When it was done, Con O took out the lotus flowers from the inventory.
"Please accept. It's just a small sign that I appreciate. ”
There are two reasons why he gave flowers to the old man.
First of all, as he said, it is a symbol of his appreciation. Secondly, he would like to bring up the topic of dialogue with Kudar.
The old man accepted the flowers.
"Hmm. It was a lotus flower. When I was a child, I said I would create a panacea of love...... I use it a lot. ”
The old man looked at the flower as if reminiscing about the past.
"The panacea of love, does this flower have some special property or other property?"
"It is said that the alchemist Kudar fulfilled his love through this flower, so I tried to do it. ”
"Didn't Kudar name the flower after his wife and use it to propose marriage, instead of using it as a panacea for love?"
Conou told the story that Eder had told him.
"Hp value. Kudar was a poor and unattractive alchemist, and his wife was the only daughter of a very rich man. If you think about it, these two people can never be together. Still, they got together, which means that Kudar must have created a love elixir, an elixir of love that only appeared in legends, and let her drink it. One of the main ingredients of the elixir of life must be the flower of benevolence. Seemingly angry.
"So you're talking about...... Has he who gave him the elixir of love become the one who proposed to her with Ren Jihua?"
"Definitely. Common sense and facts will always be distorted over time. ”
Conou narrowed his eyes.
"It seems that the old man is a person who distorts the facts. ”
The old man was actually a man who ignored the facts and made up his own story.
But he continued to listen carefully.
"A poor young man and a rich daughter......"
It would definitely cost a fortune to set up his laboratory on the top of Mount Malone.
Where does all this money come from?
It must have come from a female family of a wealthy family. If so, wouldn't his wife buy him a house either?
"If I ask his wife, then I might get some clues......"
"You say Renji is the only daughter of a rich man?"
"Definitely. ”
"Does her house still exist?" Conou asked.
"Hmm. I'm not sure, but I do know her full name: Rinje Ishmael. If you want to know more about the Ishmael, go to the town hall. ”
[You've found the key clue to Kudar's house.] ]
Kang Ou smiled at the system message. He must have asked the right questions.
"Understood. I loved our conversation. I'll leave now. ”
Conou wanted to go to Myron City Hall immediately. He should be able to get the information he needs there.
The old man just waved his hand.
Con quickly left the Alchemist Guild.
"Is that it?"
Cono arrived in front of Myron City Hall. Due to the cleanliness of the exterior, it looks like a newly built building.
"I don't need to call Ed yet. ”
He would leave Edel in the books and figure out the residence of the Ishmael family himself.
However...!
"Mr. Conou!"
Suddenly, he heard someone calling out to him. Conou turned and saw Edel running towards him.
"Ed. Did you find something?"
The two of them are connected. Edel can find Con'ou anytime and anywhere, and the same applies to Con'o's Edel Summons. He can summon Edel at any time.
"Nope. I found an important clue in the Myron Library and came here to check if it was correct...... Then I met you. ”
"Does your Ishmael family have such an important clue?"
"Hu? Do you know that?"
"Me too. ”
"Wow, how do you know?"
"What about you?"
"When I was flipping through the books, I found a diary with all sorts of bad things about Kudar. That diary was written by a man who had an unrequited love for Renji... In any case, it says that Kudar approached Ishmael. Then, when I looked up at the Ishmaels, I saw that they were very wealthy, and Kudar was a young and poor alchemist. So I have a hunch!"
Cono nodded.
"What about you, Mr. Conou?"
He cut out the part where he asked, "How do you know about the Ishmael?".
"Mom. I heard it from some old man. Ryoji is the only daughter of a rich man, so I also have a hunch. ”
"Same as I thought. ”
Ed gave a thumbs up.
"Let's hurry up and find out where the property of the family of Ishmael is. ”
"Okay. ”
Conou and Eder enter Myron Town Hall.
Soon after...
Where did they come from.
Both Conou and Eder's faces were bright, as they had obtained the information they had been looking for.
"Let's go. ”
"Good. ”
Without delay, they went to the mansion of the Ishmaels.
There is a forest in the northern part of Myron where the house of the House of Ishmael is located.
"It looks like that," Ed said, looking at the mansion in front of him.
"Yes, but as I thought... Desolate. Con said.
The Ishmael's mansion was completely deserted. One side of the ceiling collapsed completely, and all the windows were broken.
''I guess that's what you'd expect it to look like...
Con'ou obtained information about the Ishmaels from the town hall.
When Lenji married Kudar, she was the sole heir to Ishmael's property.
However, she was unable to give birth to an heir after her death, and at some point, Kudar also disappeared, so the Ishmael family was destroyed.
The Ishmael's mansion was apparently ownerless, and over time it had been completely deserted.
"Let's take a closer look. ”
Conou and Eder approach the mansion. The closer they got, the worse they looked.
Then, two players came out of a corner of the building.
"What is this place?"
"I don't know. ”
"Let's go inside. ”
"Of course. ”
The two players pass through Conou and Eder before entering through the front door that opens halfway.
"How do we get started?" asked Ed.
"Let's go check it out too, but if we find anything, don't show any signs. ”
Conou and Eder also enter the empty mansion and look as relaxed as tourists.
"It seems that Kudar does live here. ”
Ed pointed to the side of the wall. There are two portraits there.
On the one hand, there is a young and pale man, and on the other, there is a woman with a beautiful smile.
They are portraits of Kudar and Ringi.
This is definitely the "House of Kuda" they have been looking for.
"Now we just need to find the secret area. ”
Conou's eyes sparkled.
At that moment, he saw the players who had already appeared in front of them.
"There's nothing here, right?"
"Yes. If there is something here, then someone else will have found out. ”
"Let's go. ”
"Yes. ”
Two players go to the gate.
Conou and Ed follow the two men from a distance and make sure they leave the mansion.
"They're gone. ”。
"Yes. Now let's search for real information about this place. ”
"Yes sir!"
