Extraordinary Puppeteer

Chapter 56
After leaving the laboratory building, Karin quickly returned to the apartment, settled the lunch problem hastily, and then began to meditate deeply in the study.

When he finished his meditation and opened his eyes, it was just after three o'clock.

After heaving a sigh of satisfaction, Karin checked the results of the meditation and nodded in satisfaction.

After opening the "Encyclopedia of Commonly Used Rituals" and re-reading the content of "Variable Temperature Barrier", Karin came to the alchemy room on the second floor.

'Blue limestone, winter night grass, brass. I have all the materials, let's start to decorate, eating bread and bacon every day is enough! '

Karin finely ground the required materials, and finally baked them into a blue liquid in the crucible.

After pouring the liquid into a porcelain bowl, Karin took another special paintbrush, and then went to the storage room where the food was stored.

In the room, he specially pulled a few threads, and hung pieces of dried bacon.

After counting his food reserves, Karin began to arrange the ceremony.

He dipped a paintbrush into the blue liquid and carefully drew four patterns on the four walls of the room.

Then he took out a silver knife and carved it on the floor in the center of the room.

More than half an hour after such a toss, Karin looked at the array on the floor and poured the blue liquid in the porcelain bowl into the groove.

After the liquid filled the grooves, it gradually solidified, and a blue pattern was completed, leaving only twenty circular grooves arranged around the pattern.

Karin took out a spiritual gold coin from his body, and stuffed it into the groove tightly.

After doing this, he opened the "Compendium of Common Rituals" and compared the rituals in the storage room with the illustrations in the book.

After repeated inspections and found that there was no problem, Karin closed the book with confidence.

As a difficult-to-pronounce ancient Tyrannian mantra was read out of his mouth, the temperature in the room also began to drop slowly.

When the temperature dropped below zero, Karin couldn't help shivering.

The ceremony was very successful, and the storage room really started to cool down.

The energy source of the whole ceremony is the inlaid spiritual gold coin. If the five blue patterns in the room are not damaged, it can last for more than half a year.

If you want to adjust the temperature, just replace the grooves of the spirit gold coins. The temperature represented by the twenty grooves is between minus five degrees and 25 degrees.

Karin couldn't help shivering from the cold and left the storage room.

He looked at the room layout of his apartment, and wanted to install another 'central air conditioner' that would be warm in winter and cool in summer, but he gave up as soon as he thought about the cost.

The amount of materials needed to arrange the ceremony is calculated according to the volume of the space. It is okay to only arrange a cold room, but it is still a bit tight to have a central air conditioner with Karin's wealth.

Anyway, Wayne City is located in the coastal area, with an average annual temperature of 7 to 18 degrees Celsius, and there is no need for air conditioning.

Then Carlin went back to the study and began to chew on the four newly acquired tomes.

While reading a book, practice spellcasting at the same time.

During the four hours from [-]:[-] p.m. to [-]:[-] p.m., Karin planned to use it as his alchemy time.

After the level has grown to a certain level, he will try to refine his secret puppet. Even if he takes back the secret puppet of Westminster, it will only be used as a transition.

It is easier for a secret puppet master to design and refine the puppet himself.

No matter how good Westminster's secret puppet is, Karin still needs to work hard to improve it.

Now Karin's medicine refining skills are not good enough, so the extra four hours are spent by reading books, and he will make a few medicines in a while.

No matter what the quality is, you have to make an appearance for others to see.

The amount of materials he consumes every day can be calculated from the amount of alchemy waste.

Otherwise, it would be too weird for him to only attend class every day without hands-on practice.

In the study, apart from the sound of flipping books, there was only the sound of spell casting.

The movements caused by the four spells were not very big. Karin only needed to pay attention to the direction when casting the force field impact.

At the same time, the scene of the murder on the pier was also controlled by the police.

"Rooney, a very poor fellow, he's doing quite well as the head of a small gang of longshoremen.

Tight-spoken and nimble, many gentlemen in Midtown are willing to hire his small group of nine to do some rough work, and he has a small reputation in the dock area.

My guys have asked a few people and Rooney hasn't had any grudges with anyone lately.

hell!Could it be that the murderer did it impromptu? I hate this kind of case where acquaintances have no motive for committing the crime the most! "

Mingus, who was wearing a police officer's uniform, looked at Rooney's body and explained something, and couldn't help complaining for a while.

However, he immediately realized his slip of the tongue, and said apologetically to a young man beside him.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Charlotte, I'm just too excited. Someone is so daring to kill people in the street. I will definitely investigate this case to the end, and I won't let that insane villain get away with it!"

Mingus was actually very surprised. Leaving aside the case, he saw Charlotte Moriarty checking the corpse as soon as he arrived at the scene.

At that time, the police officers under him wanted to chase him away, but the other party directly stated his first and last name and said that he was a detective.

Mingus' attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees.

Anyone with the surname Moriarty who has lived in Wayne City for more than [-] years knows the surname Moriarty. Only Mrs. Wally's family has the surname Moriarty, and the second son is also named Charlotte.

He still has good eyesight. He knows that Charlotte's brother is the head of the Kingdom's Security Bureau, Mycroft.

Theoretically, the bosses at the Wayne City Secret Service, who are so desperate to go to heaven, are directly under the leadership of Charlotte's brother Mycroft at the headquarters of the capital of steam.

Mingus knew that he was just a petty second-level police detective, at least he didn't have the qualifications to ignore the second young master of the Moriarty family.

So Charlotte intervened in this case so logically, and at this time his brain was running at full speed.

"Although what Mingus said just now was somewhat perfunctory, he was not wrong to say that the murderer was bold.

Due to the lack of manpower, the police can only guarantee good law and order in the upper and middle urban areas, but there is always a set of law and order in other places.

In my impression, if a body is found in a dark corner of the downtown area at night, as long as it is not someone with a sensitive identity, the police in Wayne City will not pay attention to it, and if someone reports the crime, it will only be perfunctory.

But the wharf area is different, there are mixed fish and dragons here, and there are also some gentlemen and ladies of the upper class living here, which is different from some lawless places in the lower city.

Moreover, he killed people directly during the day, without any scruples about the fact that there were more than 100 living people around.

This is completely slapping Mingus and the police in the face. I have only left here for eight years. Have the desperadoes in Wayne City become rampant to this extent? "
