Chapter 211: The Secret Room of the Study
It's not that Jia Yi hasn't thought about killing people, but the lord's wife's lover is missing, and she will definitely not give up, but it will be easier to be exposed.
Carefully entering the study, there is a desk facing the door, on which is the pen and ink, there is no pen here, the quill is still used, and next to the inkwell is a quill made of swan feathers, which is already a little bald.
He leaned gently closer to his desk to check that there were no magic traps. The desk was neatly tied, and he carefully flipped it, and there was nothing on it except for a few unused pieces of parchment.
He then began to rummage through the bookshelves next to him, there were not too many books on either side, there were all kinds of words, and the most of them were written in demonic language.
Jia Yi is a little glad that he has learned the demon language well, otherwise he would not be able to understand these books.
Most of the books in it are some travelogues and the like, and there are some books on simple herbs, alchemy item making, spell practice, and principle analysis, but for Kaichi, the quality of these books is very average and not enough to attract his attention.
I don't think the really precious books are here.
After thinking about it, he took out his sonar and began to scan the study, although vampires are often complained about as big bats, they are not really bats, and there is not much research on sound waves.
Places like secret rooms, most of them are built in the study or bedroom, and there are also people who specialize in building basements, but I don't know which plan the lord here chooses.
There was nothing on the walls around him, but when his sonar fell into the desk, there was nothing unusual about the desk, but he saw a hole under the desk - there was really a dark compartment - the secret room without special protection for sonar was almost a naked beauty, and there was no resistance.
After checking the shadow shown in the sonar, this dark grid is not too big, no more than a cube, and Kaiichi carefully checked it, and found a mark on the corner of the desk, judging by the magic circuit, this is where the mechanism is activated.
If it's some other type of mechanism, Jiayi may not have much to do, he's a mage, not a thief, and there's nothing else to do except violence, but it's a magic mechanism, and the level of production is very average, so it's not difficult for Jiayi.
There was a bloodline identification circle on the seal, but the design was not very tight, and it was easily bypassed by him, just like some websites have login pages, but they can access internal resources by bypassing the login through some technical means. It's like a primitive beginner-designed website, full of loopholes.
Bypassing the bloodline identification, Jia Yi activated the magic circle, only to see the desk suddenly slide forward, and then a huge gap in the floor of the ground cracked, and a thick cubic pillar rose from the ground, and there was a small door directly opposite the pillar, after Jia Yi opened it, it was a small partition that was divided, and inside it was a book, and some manuscripts, a glass bottle, and a bottle of blood-red liquid that shimmered with a stream of light was contained in the bottle, which seemed to be the blood of something.
He first checked the manuscript, these are basically some letters, Jia Yi skipped not to mention, and there is also a note of the lord himself, which is both a note and a diary, in addition to some of the lord's own experience in learning spells, but also recorded many ordinary little things, many of which are also related to his wife.
Kaichi quickly flipped back, and suddenly saw a note about the origin of the small world, which was also mixed with information about the land of the dead.
No one knows exactly how the small world appeared, but most people believe that it was formed by the debris that fell off the main material world when the world was first born, just like the asteroid belt around the planet, and some people even believe that the small world was formed by the fragments that fell from the main material world during the war of the gods.
None of these speculations have been confirmed, but the relationship between the small world and the main material world is inseparable, and most of the intelligent creatures in the small world have migrated from the main material world.
This small world is no exception, the first orcs accidentally fell into this small world, and later this small world was discovered by the elders of the Bruch family, the first Duke of Bruch, it was the time of the War of the Gods, the first Duke of Bruch moved the family into this small world, took it for himself, and slowly multiplied.
The current Duke of Bruch is already in the third generation, and he is called Bruch III, compared to the first generation, the third generation is far worse, and it is becoming more and more powerless to resist the undead natural disaster.
This information was heard by the lord from the elders of the Bruch family, and one of the important messages was that the Duke of Bruch could contact the outside world in the past, and races such as the gray dwarves were moved in by the first generation, but now the third generation no longer has this ability.
It is precisely because of the lack of communication with the outside world that the entire Bruch family will become weaker and weaker, and without external pressure, the entire Bruch family will lack motivation when they are used to being the "soil emperor". Although there are undead natural disasters, natural disasters once every few decades are still not enough to put pressure on them.
The Bruch family's means of losing contact with the outside world was when the Land of the Dead appeared, and the vampires of the Bruch family believed that the Land of the Dead was the node of communication between this small world and the outside world. The Land of the Dead appeared after the death of the first duke, and some people even believe that the land of the dead is related to the first duke.
If it weren't for the fact that the ghosts of the Bruch family had observed the undead monarch many times and confirmed that the other party had no connection with the vampire, they would have thought that the undead monarch was transformed after the death of the first duke.
Jia Yi remembered that the place where he appeared was on the edge of the land of the dead, and immediately felt that the things recorded on it about the node made a lot of sense.
As for the relationship between the undead monarch and the first duke, maybe it's because the Bruch family always can't beat each other and wants to turn each other into their own, just like the whole universe is our Smecta.
Using the copy of the information about the Land of the Dead, he picked up the rest of the basic books, which were all vampire spells written down, as well as a book on bloodline development and transformation.
This book aroused Jiayi's interest, he also learned a little about the means of bloodline transformation, and he also upgraded Xiaoqing's own bloodline, but compared to the introduction in this book, the poor knowledge he mastered was very simple, far less profound than what was recorded above.
He even found a magic circle on it, which allowed the equipment to increase his strength in equal proportions, and the stronger the strength, the more effective the equipment could be. This is the prototype of the original bloodline equipment, knights and other inheritance equipment.
With this rune array, knight-type magic equipment will not be fixed by power, for low-level knights, this difference is not big, but for high-level knights, inheritance equipment that can give full play to their strength is fundamental.
He immediately thought of his younger brother, and immediately reproduced the same book, if it weren't for the fear of startling the snake, he would have wanted to tell it directly and take it away.
In the end, there was a bottle of blood-red liquid left, which was also recorded in the notes, it was really blood, the blood of the first duke, for vampires, being able to get the blood of the ancestor's bloodline was the easiest way to improve themselves.
The lord gets such a vial of blood in order to use it when he is about to break through, increase the probability of breakthrough, and increase the concentration of blood.
But for Jia Yi, this bottle of blood is useless, this is not essence blood, it is very dangerous to transform the bloodline, and there is no success rate, and relatively speaking, the vampire bloodline is not a good bloodline, although the strength is good, but the weakness is very obvious.
Although it is not so exaggerated as being afraid of light, it is indeed a fear of relationships and flame-type spells, which make this bottle of blood a little frivolous.
Otherwise, even if it would be exposed, Kaichi was not sure if he would really be able to bear it and not take this bottle of blood for himself.
Returning everything to its original place, Kaichi thought to himself, maybe he had to go back to "Devil's Mountain" again, if he wanted to return to the main material realm.
