Chapter 54: Confrontation (2)
Alan pushed open the door directly, and saw that it was Old Jack, who had a relationship in Geer City, who was sitting upright in a chair, with a little dust on his face, and he looked a little tired. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
But when he raised his head slightly, Alan was facing a pair of bright eyes, not the slightest tiredness, nor a little turbidity, so clear that he could see into the bottom of the other party's heart, where it was like an old man's eyes, but like a young child.
"Sir, we meet again. ā
It is impossible for a treacherous person to have such a pair of eyes, and Alan is almost certain in his heart that the old Jack in front of him has nothing to do with the "dream" that appeared in Dragon's Blood City this time, but where did the formula come from, if you can't grasp this source, the matter will never be completely resolved.
With such a question, Alan walked over to Old Jack and sat down, and at this time Old Jack came back to his senses, and a little smile appeared on his old face.
"I didn't expect it to be you, Xiaoyou, who have achieved such an achievement in just a short period of time, it's really amazing. Old Jack gave Allen a thumbs up, and then asked tentatively, "I just don't know if these two things were researched by Xiaoyou himself or by another teacher?"
Alan is not surprised by Old Jack's questions at all, but these questions can be discussed slowly in the future, and now he just wants to get the information of the "dream" as soon as possible, raised his hand and rubbed his earlobe, Alan looked straight at Old Jack.
"Sir, this question will be discussed later, and I have a few questions for you now. ā
"Oh?"
Old Jack couldn't help laughing, it seems that this is going to test the school to test his own knowledge, as a genius who used to be a genius in alchemy, although Old Jack has been in seclusion for many years, but he has not let go of the exploration of alchemy, and he is not inferior to anyone in the world, and he is naturally very confident in Allen's question.
"Okay, then you ask. ā
"Very well, I would like to ask if anyone other than you might know the recipe for 'Dream Realm'?"
Old Jack stood up from his chair with a "soar", his face changed, he stared at Alan tightly for a while, then took a deep breath, and then exhaled a long breath, and then asked:
"You're a descendant of Priscilla?"
"Priscilla?
Although Alan didn't understand what Old Jack was talking about, the sudden appearance of the person's name made him realize that it seemed that there was someone other than Old Jack who really knew the recipe for "Dream Realm".
"Who the hell are you, and what do you want to do!"
Finding out that Alan is not the heir of an old friend, Old Jack suddenly became nervous, in fact, his incognito life for so many years is not all to avoid the Holy See, but more to avoid some people with ulterior motives from finding him.
The events of that year also allowed Old Jack to witness the terrifying consequences of what he discovered, and it would undoubtedly be terrible if someone really wanted to use the "dream" to do something.
At this time, Alan also realized that he seemed to have scared the old man, but he didn't know if telling his status as the Holy See would make things better or worse, after all, what the Holy See did twelve years ago was likely to make Old Jack hateful, and after hesitating for a moment, Alan still decided to hide it for the time being.
"Don't get excited, old man, in fact, I came to you because the 'dream' appeared in Dragon Blood City. ā
"What! this ...... No way!"
Alan knew that Old Jack must be suspicious of himself, so he didn't bother to explain, but took out a water bag from his arms and handed it to Old Jack, Yulong's subordinates have collected a lot of similar things in the past few days.
"Sir, take a look, this is what they sell in Dragon's Blood City, I guess it's diluted, but as the original maker, you should be able to tell it easily. ā
Old Jack still suspected that Allen's remarks were trying to trick the recipe of "dreams" from himself, but he had already made up his mind that as long as the contents of this water bag were not "dreams", then he would die here immediately, and he would never be able to confide out a word.
As soon as he took the water bag, Old Jack directly pulled out the stopper, and a fragrance wafted in the room, and this familiar aroma made Old Jack's face change greatly.
However, he quickly calmed down, the aroma of the "dream" is not a big secret, and there are not a few people who know it, it is not very difficult to fake it, and there are still some subtle differences between this fragrance and the real "dream".
Stretched out his hand and dipped a little of the liquid in the water bag and tasted it, Old Jack was stunned for a moment, suddenly became a little distracted, and the water bag in his hand could no longer hold it, and fell to the ground with a "pop", and the liquid in the bag gushed out, and soon gathered on the ground, and the aroma in the room became more intense.
"How is it possible, this can't be. ā
Old Jack muttered in his mouth, and his body fell backwards like this, and Allen saw that it was not good, and directly stepped forward to hug Old Jack and put him on the chair.
Such a big movement naturally called Old Jack back from his trance, he looked at the puddle of liquid on the ground with a complicated expression, and then closed his eyes, and even his voice became much drier.
"You mean, this kind of thing appeared in Dragonblood City?"
"That's right, and I haven't been able to stop arresting a lot of traffickers, I guess the other party should have a fairly large production area, but I haven't been able to find it, so I found you, sir, to help. ā
Alan seemed very sincere, as long as Old Jack could help, Alan believed that it would not be long before the matter was investigated.
Old Jack nodded, and then said, "Can you know which side you represent?"
"This ......" Alan hesitated for a moment again, but decided not to take the risk yet, "I am naturally here to investigate this matter thoroughly on behalf of the Divine Dragon Empire, and I can take you to meet Princess Yulong tomorrow." ā
Unexpectedly, Old Jack shook his head and said: "Although I am not a member of the Divine Dragon Empire, but I have lived for so many years, I still know a little about the Divine Dragon Empire, and among the officials of the Empire, there is no such person as you." ā
But this little problem is not enough for Allen.
"Haha, the old gentleman really knows, I am indeed not an official, because this matter is very important, in order not to startle the snake, I am just an ordinary little nobleman in the empire. ā
"Well, that's quite reasonable, but I don't think you're like you, your conversation and temperament are like people from the Holy See. ā
Alan never thought that Old Jack would directly reveal his identity, and he didn't know if he really saw something or was scaring himself, but no matter what, there were only two ways left in front of Allen, confess or carry it to the end.
