Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 137 The Secret of Intracranial Crystals
"Have you found anything?"

Yi Liya is not very scared now, she moved to Ahao's side curiously.

"It's weird. Very weird." Ah Hao began to mutter to himself.

"Illya, do you think there is anything strange about this mummy?"

"It moves, isn't that strange?"

"No, I mean the bandages on it. Are there many lines on it?"

"Oh, you said that. That should be a prayer. I remember it was a custom of the Erak people to make mummies."

"Prayer?"

Ah Hao muttered to himself.

He thinks things are getting interesting.

Ah Hao separated the red crystals in his hand into two piles, put them under his nose, and sniffed hard.

Its taste is slightly fishy, ​​with a faint smell.

Then the smell changed quickly, becoming the smell of desert and gold.

The confused yellow sand flew to Ah Hao's eyes with the wind.

A shirtless middle-aged man was sitting in a tent in the desert, as if he was drawing something.

Fantasy!

It is the secret hidden in the smell!
After Ahao was surprised for a short time, he quickly reacted.He had experienced quite a few of these visions.

With his rich experience, he silently switched his perspective to the top of the middle-aged man's head.

A round rough formation was displayed in front of his eyes.

The middle-aged man is placing a handful of yellow sand on it.

The familiar smelting light lit up, the sand was repelled, and only fine gold dots remained on the smelting array.

"It's done!"

As surprised cheers came, the illusion in front of him gradually dissipated.

Ah Hao immediately picked up another handful of red spar on his right hand, and started to smell it.

It was the same middle-aged man who gathered a huge team, and many people dressed as slaves were collecting yellow sand for him.

The yellow sand fell, and more gold appeared in his refining formation.The illusion soon dissipated.

Ah Hao collected the third spar from the ground.

The middle-aged man discovered the secret of gold in the sand. While collecting yellow sand, he was pleasantly surprised to find a mine rich in gold.

It was the gold scattered in the mine mixed into the sand that allowed him to "refine" gold from the sand.

He recruited more slave miners to dig ore for him.And he used the refining formation to decompose and refine the raw ore in the mine into bright gold.

His wealth and power reached the peak, and his life was extravagant and flashy.

The fourth spar.

The illusions in these crystals are not connected with the previous illusions in time.

Ah Hao noticed that the image of the middle-aged man was already very old.

He was covered with rich gold ornaments and was watching an Erak man dressed as a priest making a mummy.

The priest took out all the internal organs of the corpse and put them into small jars by category.

At the same time, he used an iron hook to take out all the brains of the deceased through the nasal cavity, and randomly disposed of them in the dirt basket.

"No, no." The old man cried out in pain.

"The brain cannot be destroyed. Without the brain, even if I am resurrected, I am just a monster without intelligence!"

The priest said with a troubled expression: "However, the brain is extremely perishable, and it cannot be mummified without taking it out. What's more, thinking and wisdom exist in the heart. I will keep the heart in the body for you. You don't have to worry."

"No, you don't know anything, you idiot! I have to be resurrected wholeheartedly, do you understand?
"If I want to see that door, I have to die once. This is a necessary condition!

"So the brain is very important! I have to keep my brain, I have to find a way to keep my brain"

The old man carried away the basket in which the brains were discarded in a dazed manner.

The illusion dissipated.

Although Ah Hao didn't understand much, he was greatly shocked.

He looked at the red spar in his hand strangely.With a shake of the hand, the spar jingled and fell to the ground.

This thing is probably made with the brain!
However, his strong thirst for knowledge made him abandon the nausea and discomfort, and continued to search for the next spar on the ground.

Ah Hao found regretfully that he could not find any spar on the ground that he had never heard of.

He looked at the mummy still pinned to the wall.

Ah Hao already "smelled" the mummy's life.

He was an alchemist.Moreover, he is a traditional alchemist who takes "alchemy" in a narrow sense as his life goal.

Moreover, he really found a way to "refine" gold.

It is estimated that this is also the reason why this tomb is extraordinarily luxurious and golden.In addition to gold, what is more interesting is what happened to him in his later years.

He wanted to preserve his brain, probably because he wanted to retain his thoughts and memories when he was resurrected.

The scented red crystals confirmed that the alchemist's experiments had succeeded in some way.

Unfortunately, he turned out to be an irrational monster in the end.

I don't know which step went wrong.

only.
Mummies, Constructs, Alchemy and Resurrection.

How on earth did he do it?
Ah Hao couldn't understand all this.

"Ahao, what have you been doing since the beginning? You can talk to me, it's a bit too quiet here."

Illya's voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

"Oh, it's okay. I'm just curious about this red crystal. It has a very special taste.

"I was a little distracted just now, are those two people okay inside?"

Illya nodded: "I've been vaguely hearing Canaan's exclamation, and I'm very happy. I guess there's something good inside."

"It's good that nothing happened. Let's talk about the treasure after we get out. I believe Anand will look after Canaan for us. Let's stay away from this mummy for now."

Ahao still doesn't know how the mummy was resurrected, and the resurrection was planned and planned by him.

Since it can be resurrected once, maybe it cannot be resurrected twice.So he subconsciously wanted to stay away from him.

"Ah."

Elijah obediently followed behind him.

The two walked around the stone pillar in the middle of the room for a small half circle.Ilya casually sprinkled more sundew cauliflower.

Having nothing to do, Ah Hao involuntarily looked at the stone pillar in the middle.

The copper book on top had already caught his attention.After knowing the identity of the alchemist, he cared even more.

Along the way, the four of them did not encounter any agencies.After gaining insight into the alchemist's resurrection plan, he intuited that this book was not a mechanism.

After all, it is impossible for a person who is going to be resurrected to arrange a trap outside his "door".

He craned his neck to look at the copper book.

"The death of the body opens the door to eternal life for the soul."

That's the first sentence of the book.

Moreover, Ahao discovered to his astonishment that this sentence was written with strange and distorted runes.

He has only seen this kind of writing on [Gate of Truth]!
Maybe this book has something to do with his door!
"Illya, is there a way for you to get that book from afar?"

"Huh? Didn't everyone say that book is a trap? It's better not to take it."

"If it's a trap, then that book must be very valuable. Only in this way can it be considered a bait! And I have a hunch that it is unlikely that it is a trap."

Elijah nodded thoughtfully.

"Maybe I can hook it from a distance with a climbing rose, but I don't know what will happen after I hook it off."

"Okay! I'll make defensive preparations. This way, even if there are traps, they won't be able to hurt us."

Ah Hao drew another formation on the ground.

The floor deformed accordingly, arching into a spherical thick wooden castle.

Ilya and Ahao hid in.

A long rose vine protruded from the only small door left in the house.

It slowly grew to the middle of the room, and then climbed up the stone pillar in the middle.

Spiny vines with roses twined round and round the copper books.

Then, the rose vine was pulled violently.

It took the "trophy" and retracted into the hemispherical wooden house.
