Chapter 1116 Underground Laboratory
…
Lord's Castle Office.
It was two hours after I finished listening to Sean's report.
In general, this trip can be considered very smooth. Zoe and Betty not only brought back ancient relics, but also used the captured God's Punishment Warriors to loot the Grand Duke Island's treasure house. All kinds of jewelry filled the entire cabin. At this point, the foundation of the original Hermes Church has been completely cut off. No matter which Wolf-Hearted nobleman occupies Grand Duke Island in the future, he will never have any connection with the church.
As for the fellow travelers, Kajin Feisi said goodbye to the captain of the bodyguard as soon as he got off the boat, and returned to the hotel with his disciples. He seemed to be impatient to write a new script.
Church members Falina and Qiao were taken to prison, awaiting trial by the Graycastle Security Bureau.
"I'll leave these two to you." Roland tilted his head and said softly.
Nightingale pinched his shoulder to show her understanding.
"So the rumored treasure... the Ceremonial Rubik's Cube, is it in this lead box?" Roland looked at the gray box at Sean's feet. According to the traitor Hagrid's description, it was about the same size as the palm of his hand, like a piece of stone polished. cube; considering the danger of highly radioactive materials, he prepared the rescue team before setting off.
"Yes, I followed your instructions and took care of it myself, and did not let any third party except Zoe and Miss Betty touch it." Sean replied, "But before putting it in the lead box, I noticed An unusual sign.”
"What sign?"
"Your Majesty, do you still remember what I mentioned in my secret letter about the reason why Lorenzo decided to send Hagrid to Cage Mountain to inquire about information?"
Roland thought for a while, "Because the treasure that has not changed in the past hundred years emits blue light?"
"Exactly," Sean nodded, "and after Miss Zoe brought back the festival cube, she said something that really concerned me. She said, "The blue light above seems to be changing." So I paid more attention and found that the light was always pointing towards me, like a compass. To be honest, I was so frightened that I almost threw the Rubik's Cube to the ground. "
This was just like listening to a ghost story. Roland also felt terrified, but his expression remained calm as he said, "Did you finally find out the reason?"
"Probably." Sean took out something from his arms and handed it to the mahogany table. "After calming down, I thought it was unlikely that an ancient relic would react to an ordinary person. There must be something wrong. After some investigation, I found that it was not pointing to me, but to this coin."
That was the highly enriched uranium coin used to find mineral sources. After Azima returned to Neverwinter, it was handed over to Sean.
In other words, the Festival Rubik's Cube emits light again because it senses the uranium coins?
This is really interesting...
Roland thought for a moment and then said, "I understand. This mission was completed very well. You can go down and rest first."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Sean resigned, Nightingale emerged from the fog, stepped forward and looked around the lead box.
"What, did you find anything?"
"This is a magic creation." She affirmed. "Although it looks like an unpolished stone, it is definitely not that simple. In the fog, I saw a light similar to a magic cyclone, just like Taqi. It’s the same as pulling the magic core in the witch’s hand.”
Sure enough, Roland thought, the influence of magic on this world may be more profound than he imagined. Unfortunately, judging from the information currently available, there are huge differences in the research and application of it by various ethnic groups. In the absence of analytical methods, it is difficult to conduct systematic research.
However, he also knows that empirical formulas are also formulas, which are better than nothing. Just like before the emergence of classical mechanics, people still created various tools through observation and practice. Now that there is a new observation object, it is natural to Take a good look into it.
"Let's go to the Third Border City," he said. "I don't know if Celine has prepared a dedicated laboratory."
No matter what, this cursed relic should not be left in the castle until it is absolutely safe.
…
"Why are you back again?" After entering the underground hall, Pasha quickly greeted her, "Is there something wrong with the new weapon?"
Roland shook his head, "How far has the cave I entrusted Celine to expand now?"
"Ah, are you talking about the metal secret room? Except for the elevator, the other parts have been basically completed. She is in the secret room now. Do you want to go and have a look?"
After receiving a positive reply, Pasha bent her beard and said, "Please follow me."
When Roland decided to send the Divine Punishment Witch to Wolf Heart a week ago, he also asked Celine to start preparing the necessary facilities for research, a fully enclosed laboratory with shielding function hidden deep underground.
If the Ceremony Rubik's Cube can indeed stimulate high-energy rays as he thought, then testing it on the ground is undoubtedly a very risky matter. Considering that Nana's treatment effect on radiation sickness is currently unknown, it is naturally better to be cautious.
Following the original carrier all the way down, Roland roughly told what happened in Wolf Heart.
"I see," Pasha said with a smile, "it is indeed the best choice to leave it to Celine. Whether it is the research on magic power or the dismantling and repairing of relics, she is a leader in the Quest. After switching to this body, her skills have risen to more than one level. I dare not say to others, but Celine may be the only one who took the initiative to choose to merge with the carrier before Taquila showed her failure. "
"Ha..." Nightingale showed a disgusted expression, "You mean, she prefers... tentacle sarcoma to her original body?"
"If that is helpful in exploring the secrets of the world." Pasha shook her tentacles, "When she was still in the Secret Exploration Club, what she complained about most was that she didn't have enough hands and her body tired too quickly. If she could have mastered the soul at that time When it comes to transferring technology, it’s hard to say what choice she will make.”
After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, the downward passage reached the end, and a large vertical hole appeared in front of the three of them.
"This is the entrance, but it will take a few days for the elevator to be installed." Pasha lowered her main beard, "Please climb up."
"Uh... Is this the only way to get down?" Nightingale looked at the countless wiggling whiskers on the other person's body, seeming a little frightened.
"This is the fastest way," Pasha reassured, "Don't worry, don't look at those short beards that are thin and flexible. They are actually quite flexible and won't be damaged if you step on them."
Roland took a deep breath and climbed up to the top of the carrier along the main beard. He originally thought it would be as hairy as falling into a swarm of worms, but in fact it felt as smooth as a carpet.
After the nightingale also climbed up, Pasha moved into the hole and quickly slid towards the bottom of the hole.
After descending for nearly a hundred meters, she slowly stopped, and a laboratory reflecting the cold luster of metal slowly appeared in front of Roland.
