Chapter 30 Obtained
On the knee, a purple wooden cane as thick as a thumb was lying horizontally on the surface. The golden eagle head was decorated with mother-of-pearl inlays around the edge and a circle of relief on it. It was a large piece of light silver acanthus leaves surrounding the eagle head in the middle. It looked low-key and luxurious.
The overall cane body was about the thickness of an adult's thumb.
Kaxiu suppressed his excitement and first sat on the sofa to look around carefully and played with it for a while. It was in line with his personality as an antique lover. After watching and chatting with Matthew for five or six minutes, he excused himself to go to the toilet.
On both sides of the carpeted rectangular corridor, there was a bronze wall lamp at intervals. The wall lamp emitted a soft yellow light, which made the entire corridor quite warm.
Kaxiu was walking towards the toilet at this moment. He looked around and saw that there was no one in front and behind, so he stretched out his hand and bit his thumb hard.
Suddenly, a bleeding wound appeared.
The thumb gently pressed on the cane, and in an instant, Kaxiu felt a large stream of cold air licking his wound like an octopus. The next second, these air currents rushed in, and Kaxiu's entire right arm was numb.
The bitter taste spread from the arm all the way to the mouth. With it came a strong sense of coldness.
It was clearly June, the beginning of summer. But Kaxiu felt as if he was in an ice cellar, his face was numb and he was shivering.
It felt like swallowing a big mouthful of ice on a hot day, the coldness rushed straight to the brain, and the whole body was numb.
But fortunately, the bitterness and coldness came and went quickly.
In just a few seconds, Kaxiu absorbed all the coldness, and the airflow stopped coming out of the cane.
"Huh..." He pressed one hand on the wall and exhaled a long breath. Looking up, numbers gradually appeared above the view.
"Obsession Energy: 1.1"
If the obsession energy required for a time rewind is 1, then this purple wood cane contains 1.1 obsession energy. A little more than the energy required for a time rewind.
"Sure enough, the obsession energy contained in different antiques is also different. I don't know what this energy intensity is related to..."
Kaxiu rubbed the cane in his hand and muttered to himself.
He glanced at the upper right corner again, above the obsession energy display bar. A wind ivory pendant rune symbol hung alone at the top, and no other symbols appeared next to it.
For example, a wooden cane with a golden eagle pattern on the top.
Squinting his eyes, he felt it a little. Kaxiu understood.
Not all obsession antiques can produce rune symbols like the wind ivory pendant, and most of them just have obsession energy. In other words, there are actually two types of antiques.
The first type, Kaxiu calls it a legendary antique.
For example, the wind ivory pendant, this kind of antique can not only contain obsession energy, but also have the obsession backtracking node of the original owner, which allows Kaxiu to practice backtracking. Like the original owner of the wind ivory pendant, Levi, he has three important nodes.
The youth training camp incident, the battle of extermination, and the road of revenge.
The second type, Kaxiu calls it an obsession antique.
As the name suggests, there is only obsession energy in the antique, but no obsession node like the wind ivory pendant. For example, the purple wooden cane he just absorbed only provides an energy source.
Coming back to his senses, Kaxiu looked down at his thumb, and the wound had scabbed over. He glanced at the wall on the right, and there was a blood spot on the smooth and clean wall. It was just that I pressed it with my right hand against the wall. The blood was very small, so Kaxiu wiped it off casually.
Turning back, the footsteps gradually spread to the toilet.
Kaxiu simply washed his hands and cleaned the blood-stained cane. He turned around and returned the same way.
He walked out of the corridor and came to the lobby of the villa. A black shoe stepped on the marble floor and froze instantly. Kaxiu clicked his tongue, looked at the cane in his hand, and then clicked his tongue again. He instantly understood something: "In addition to the purple wood cane, there are also obsession antiques in this villa!!!"
As expected of a wealthy businessman who owns several cross-city companies, there are many antique collections in his home! Today's harvest is quite fruitful...
For such a pleasant surprise, Kaxiu couldn't help but show a smile from the heart on his face.
"Yes, I just walked all the way from the living room. The reason I didn't notice anything unusual was because I was holding a purple wooden cane in my hand. The bitterness of other obsession antiques at a distance is not obvious compared to the bitterness caused by the purple wooden cane at a close distance."
"Since I have sensed it, there is no reason to let it go. I only need the obsession energy inside. As long as the antique is not a legendary antique, I can completely absorb the obsession energy inside and put it back." Kaxiu thought in his heart.
He remembered that when he and Matthew proposed to go to the toilet just now, he didn't specify whether he wanted a small or large one. If it was a large one, it would be normal to stay in the toilet for a few minutes.
Thinking of this, Kaxiu quickly glanced around.
No one was there, not even the waiter who occasionally walked back and forth.
He immediately walked into the hall, using his tongue like a rescue dog's nose to search for the source of the bitter taste. The closer he was to the obsession antique, the stronger the bitter taste in Kaxiu's mouth would be.
Two or three minutes later, he walked around the entire hall. He was more and more convinced that the source was on the second or third floor.
On the right side of the hall was a spiral staircase with a bronze metal handrail on one side and a ball handle at the front.
Kaxiu looked up and glanced, tapping his toes. The whole person instantly rushed up like an agile cheetah, very fast. It took only a few seconds to reach the second floor staircase.
And no sound was made during this process.
To be honest, it is impossible for a secret martial arts practitioner to be stupidly starved to death. Just the ability to control the muscles of this body can make a top thief. It is easy to climb over the wall, climb the wall, and walk quietly, and even if you are discovered, you can easily slip away.
It's just that no secret martial arts practitioner would do such a shameful thing as stealing property. They have other ways to make money.
Standing at the second floor staircase, Kaxiu sensed it slightly. The source of the bitterness has basically been determined to be on the second floor of the villa.
In front of him is a spacious hall like the first floor, with a circle of cabinets, coffee tables, sofas and the like next to it, and several oil paintings on the wall. Potted plants and decorative antiques are placed in the corner.
Further away is a corridor on the left and right, which seems to lead to different areas on the second floor. There are occasionally rooms in the corridor. At the end of the right side, there is occasionally a sound coming from a dark red wooden door. The brass label on the top reads: Study.
"White Bird, my son was attacked by the people of Sand Dust..."
