Chapter 248 Escape from the secret room!

Awakening potion!

Is it really an awakening potion?
A palm-sized bottle of light blue potion was quietly placed on the dark red silk and satin that had been padded several times.

The light blue potion is housed in a simple and gorgeous crystal bottle, which exudes a charming light under the magic lamp. The four characters "Awakening Potion" carved on the bottle body are so lifelike that they cannot be moved at all. open your eyes.

Veigar picked it up carefully.

Although it was only judged from the words on the bottle that it was an awakening potion, Layton didn't need to spend a lot of time building a secret room to store a fake bottle.

So it's completely conjectured.

This bottle of awakening potion is probably the one that was sold in the free trade area on the second floor of the trade union three or four years ago. The Rodney family has never dared to disclose it because of the innocence of the people and the guilt of the crime. The upper lineage is really disappointing, there is not even a professional, so it has been kept here.

I'm afraid Layton didn't expect that his ability to hide potions was really third-rate.

In the end, this bottle of potion couldn't just be given to future generations. Instead, it made Veiga, the enemy who destroyed the family, cheaper.

Carefully hid the potion, Veiga did not use it immediately, although it can be speculated whether the potion is genuine or not, but Veiga, who cherishes his life so much, did not dare to take the risk, so he had to go back and get a drop to find a bottle." "Mice" to test the water, and it will not be too late to take it after confirming that it is non-toxic and has no side effects.

After taking the awakening potion, Veigar turned around and wanted to return to the ground to find the secret path again.

But as soon as he came to the closed exit, he vaguely heard footsteps and the noise of rummaging through boxes.

With a thud in his heart, Veigar realized that something was wrong.

Wouldn't it be self-inflicted to rush out now?
If he didn't go out, with the professional ability of the law enforcement team, it would be a matter of time before he was discovered here. At that time, he would become a turtle in the urn, and I am afraid he would have no choice but to surrender.

Now advancing is throwing oneself into a trap, retreating is a turtle in an urn, can it only stop here?

Veigar is a little unwilling. Once caught, although his life is safe, his evaluation will drop. The failure of the plan of the community of interests is inevitable, and it will even affect the progress of the general's plan. In this way, the loss will be huge.

There must be another way.

Veigar walked up and down the aisle irritably, thinking about countermeasures.

But the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't think of an idea, and the few conversations outside made Veigar completely flustered.

"There's something wrong with this vase."

"It's just an antique vase, there's something wrong."

"Hey, we're going to get rich. Based on my years of experience in investigating cases, this is definitely the trigger for the secret room."

"Is that true? I'm here to help you."

The conversation outside the house was clear to the ear, and Veigar rushed around the corner and returned to the secret room.

boom!
As soon as he returned to the secret room, Veigar heard the knock on the door, followed by crisp footsteps and conversations.

"It's still you Lingling masters who are so keen that you can even find the secret room."

"We specialize in surgery, we are not as powerful as your elemental mages."

"Why don't you switch between the two?"

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, I will take the lead and see if there is any mechanism."

"Do you think the fugitive who killed the family will hide here?"

"Absolutely impossible. A mere shadow mage still wants to discover such a secret mechanism?"

"Just in case, I still have my magic ready to keep you safe at all times."

Veigar, who was just about to cast tricks to fool him, revoked his magic. He didn't expect that the god of luck would really fight him. The only magician in the entire law enforcement team actually broke into the secret room, and there was an elemental at his side. mage.

Even if such a combination is standard, his luck is too bad.

But at this critical moment, Vega calmed down instead. He really belongs to the kind of personality that becomes more calm when he is in danger. Once a person calms down, his five sense organs will become more sensitive, and his brain will become more sensitive. be clear.

Veigar squinted his eyes and patrolled around the secret room, and finally returned his gaze to the half-person-high box.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the game that he had played badly because of boredom in his previous life - escape room.

And once he thought of this game, Veigar would substituting it into the current situation unconsciously, and then his gaze could no longer leave the half-human tall box.

"Anyway, I'm also a hardcore escape room escape player."

Veigar snorted conceitedly and said, "Store a palm-sized potion in a half-person-high box? Isn't that an insult to my IQ?"

Compared with the previous "escape room" game, which was so complicated that people doubted the clues to solve the puzzle of life, this secret room can only be regarded as an entry-level... No, in Vega's view, calling this place an entry-level is simply an insult to "entry-level escape". Level" these three words.

As a hardcore player, if he couldn't even find this clue, he might as well commit suicide immediately.

Veigar tried to push the box, but found he couldn't move.

But this situation made him breathe a sigh of relief, so he opened the box without hesitation, and threw out all the stacks of dark red satin until the wood at the bottom of the box could be seen completely.

dong dong dong-

Veigar tapped lightly on the bottom of the box, and sure enough there was a hollow sound.

"right here."

Veigar clenched his fist and smashed towards the bottom, a passage appeared in front of Veigar.

"what sound!"

Because they were afraid of the agency, the duo of the law enforcement team, who were advancing step by step, suddenly changed their expressions, and rushed to the secret room immediately, regardless of any traps, but they only saw the empty secret room, and... the bottom of the box of the hole.

After a few 10 minutes.

When Veigar crawled out of the secret passage, he found that it was several hundred meters away from the manor, and he had successfully escaped from the encirclement of the law enforcement team.

Veigar, who escaped from the sky, just wanted to let out a few laughs. He never thought that one day he would be saved by the games he played. As expected, such things as art come from reality.

But Veigar didn't delay too long, he only paused for a few seconds before leaving directly.

Probably when the sun was about to rise, Veigar had already changed into his military uniform and returned to the dormitory of the military academy.

creak-

Opening the door, Vega glanced guiltily at Qi Lisi who was still sleeping soundly, and decided in his heart that he should make up for the other party if he had a chance in the future.

Hanging the coat on the hanger, Veigar carefully took out the awakening potion.

This line of work can be said to be very rewarding. Not only did the Rodney family be wiped out, the premise of the "community of interests" plan was completed, but also the awakening potion he had dreamed of.

Hold the awakening potion in the palm of your hand.

Veiga looked through the crystal bottle over and over again like this. Can this palm-sized bottle of medicine really allow him to advance to a lower-level professional?
