Chapter 148: Book of Frost

With full of curiosity, Renault stepped onto the stairs to the second-floor laboratory area without hesitation.

The entire experimental area on the second floor is divided into various rooms, each with unique functions and uses.

The first thing that comes into view is the material room, which is filled with many unique bottles of materials and several huge metal boxes.

However, Renault found through the chip scan that most of these materials have been covered with a thick layer of dust, losing their original luster and no longer have any value.

Then, he walked into the laboratory. There are rows of complex instruments and equipment here, as if telling the countless scientific experiments that have been conducted here.

Unfortunately, these instruments are now either badly damaged or rusted by the years, and can no longer operate normally.

Finally, Renault came to the cultivation room, where there was a big hole at the door of this room! The hole was full of cracks, as if it was knocked open by some powerful force.

Through the big hole, a smell of decay came to his face, making Renault frown.

Despite this, he still stepped into the cultivation room carefully. The room was also covered with dust. The shelves that were supposed to hold plants or biological samples were empty, with only some broken glassware scattered on the ground.

Even the remaining experimental materials had long been decayed and weathered, turning into a pile of useless residues due to the wear and tear of too long.

Suddenly, Renault noticed that there was a broken cultivation table in the corner of the cultivation room. Some important experimental products should have been placed on the cultivation table, but at this moment, there was only a pile of broken glass slag and a dark green eggshell left.

The eggshell seemed to be forcibly opened by a powerful force, and it broke into several pieces and scattered around. From the traces of the cracks, it can be clearly seen that a mysterious creature broke out of the shell here.

And the equally fragmented glassware around and the big hole on the door were undoubtedly caused by this creature.

Standing in the ruins, Renault carefully picked up the eggshell fragments on the ground and gently placed them in his hands. He directly ordered the chip to start a detailed analysis and comparison program.

However, disappointingly, even after the chip searched the huge database, it could not find any records about this strange eggshell.

However, with the in-depth analysis of the eggshell composition, some interesting discoveries gradually surfaced.

After repeated verification and data comparison, the chip found that the composition of this eggshell was actually similar to the water monster outside the ruins.

In this way, a possibility is about to emerge-perhaps this water monster is not a natural thing, but one of the research results of this laboratory.

However, before the water monster was successfully hatched, Kudora left in a hurry for some reason, resulting in no one supervising this water monster that was still in the eggshell and had not yet hatched.

The successfully hatched water monster kept colliding with instinct, and finally broke through the closed door and escaped from this secret ruins.

After that, it has been living in the lake outside, and it has grown to its current appearance.

The chip analyzed that this egg was a water monster, and Renault was relieved. Because he was still worried in the distance that there were other creatures hidden in this wizard tower.

To be honest, Renault should thank the water monster. If it hadn't opened an exit from the ruins in order to escape, it would have been difficult for Renault and his team to find the entrance to the ruins.

Renault carefully visited the entire second floor. Unfortunately, since the ruins have existed for a long time, there is basically no valuable harvest.

Finally, when it was confirmed that there was no valuable harvest on the second floor, Renault shook his head helplessly, and then placed all his hopes on the third floor that he had not yet set foot on.

Renault rushed all the way and climbed the stairs to the third floor without hesitation. When he stepped into this floor, what came into view were the three rooms arranged in front. These rooms looked ordinary, no different from the lounges that you usually see.

With a little expectation, Renault opened the doors one by one to check, but the result was disappointing - there was nothing valuable in each room except simple tables and chairs. However, despite this, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, because there was still one last room waiting for him to explore.

Standing in front of the tightly closed door, Renault took a deep breath, then slowly stretched out his hand and gently pushed the door open. With a slight "creak", the scene inside the house gradually appeared in front of him.

The first thing that came into view was an extremely huge desk, which stood steadily in the center of the room like a small mountain.

The desk was surrounded by rows of tall bookshelves, which should have been filled with various precious books, but now they were empty, without any trace of books.

Just when Renault felt a little frustrated, he suddenly found that there was a thick book on the desk! This mysterious book seemed to exude an invisible attraction, instantly locking his eyes firmly.

In an instant, Renault's heart surged with ecstasy, just like finally seeing the dawn after groping in the dark for a long time.

Renault's feet were like the wind, and he rushed to the desk as fast as an arrow from a string. His bright eyes were instantly attracted by the mysterious book in front of him and focused on it firmly.

The outer cover of the book was a deep and rich black color, as if it could swallow all the light around it, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression.

On this dark cover, four large characters were outlined with silver lines - "Book of Frost". The silver lines flashed with a cold light, contrasting with the black background, making it particularly eye-catching. In the lower right corner of the title, the author's name - Kudora was clearly engraved.

When he saw these three words, Renault's heart suddenly surged with an irrepressible excitement and joy, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

However, the calm character he had developed over the years made him calm down quickly and forcibly suppress his excitement.

He took a deep breath and carefully mobilized the magical shadow cloak on his body. As his mind turned, the shadow cloak began to slowly creep and deform, and finally turned into a big hand that was also as dark as ink.

This big hand made of shadows trembled slightly in the air, and seemed to feel Renault's nervous mood.
