Chapter 165 Night Rose
After Jilan called Weiwei back to the sapphire ring, she walked to the window and opened the curtains of the master bedroom.
Bathing in the cool moonlight, I sat back at the table and raised my hand.
Along with the distorted colored light, a disconnected microphone with a gray-black metallic luster appeared in his palm.
Since his gnosis and spirituality began to steadily improve, his dimension space has also become larger. Now it has a capacity of almost 1.5 cubic meters.
After the triangular iron shield was destroyed and discarded, there were more spaces inside. Ji Lan saved all the mysterious items with beautiful entries on his body.
As for the rest of the sundries, they will be placed in the alchemy leather bag.
What stands out is that he travels lightly.
"Alchemy Hotline..."
Gilan murmured, holding the eighteen-centimeter-long metal microphone in front of his eyes, and looked at it carefully for a while. This thing fits perfectly and has a cool frosted texture on the outside.
Immediately, he picked up the red "broken wire" at the bottom of the microphone and inserted it into a mercury battery the size of a lychee.
Suddenly, he saw circles of golden light flashing on the inside of the microphone in his hand. Like a breathing lamp, several complex alchemical array patterns are revealed from top to bottom, which is dazzling.
“It’s really possible!”
He took a deep breath, tried to lift the microphone and put it to his ear.
Inside, there was a burst of extremely beautiful piano music, like the moonlight flowing quietly.
Quiet, pure and vivid.
The tinkling of the piano is like the chirping of birds in the forest in the morning light, penetrating the heart of the heart, and like a girl looking at the sea of flowers in the night wind, her smile blooming with the flowers.
Gilan had never heard this unfamiliar piece of music before in this life. He felt that his soul had gained an unspeakable tranquility and was cleansed from the inside out.
Click.
It wasn’t until a magnetic male voice came that he was pulled out of this intoxicated state:
"Hey, Shabotai, you're not dead yet?"
Jilan looked away from the "color bell", thought for a moment, and then said:
"I'm not Shabotai "
"Well..." The man over there didn't seem surprised, but he just pondered for a moment and then said: "That's right, according to the time, he should have been dead for more than ten years."
< br>"So you got his inheritance? Or are you a descendant of the Lewis family?"
"I am not from the Lewis family."
Gillen guessed that the person on the other side of the phone was anything but simple. He did not lie and chose to tell the truth.
"Well, it seems that you are the lucky one to get his inheritance."
The man on the other end of the phone said.
"Before we officially begin our conversation, I need to ask you a question, strange young man."
"Excuse me." Gillan said.
"Where did Shabotai die? Or, have you seen his tombstone?"
"Great Forest District, Brak City, Bottle Brothers Scrap Station."
Jilan guessed the reason why the other party asked, and said directly:
"He died in the underground tomb he dug, and prepared a coffin for himself, but the 'Night Stele' 'Has broken through the cover and grown out."
"I see, I understand..."
There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.
"There is a war going on in the Great Forest. This matter is really troublesome."
"Okay, let's get back to the topic." The man said. "Since you called this 'hotline', you must know our identities, right?"
"Sorry, I don't know."
"So...oh, so you don't know."
This time, both parties were silent.
"Ahem, let me introduce myself first."
The man on the other end of the phone coughed and continued.
“We are the Esoteric Cult ‘Midnight Rose’, you can call me ‘White Sage’...”
Gillan listened silently. Through the man's description, he probably got information about the other party.
"Midnight Rose" is an extremely ancient esoteric organization.
It has a history of thousands of years, even dating back to the dawn of AD 900, when it was founded by an unnamed original alchemist.
This is a Tantric religion with mixed beliefs.
The identities of the internal members are mysterious and their strength is unpredictable, and they are all alchemists. It is not an exaggeration to call it the "Alchemist Headquarters". There are four Si Chens that the members believe in, all of which belong to the furnace path.
They are "Director" in February, "Torrent" in January, "White Dove Poet" in October and "Snow Lady" in September.
These four Si Chens also correspond to the four major areas of the furnace path.
The Sword, the Holy Grail, the Pentacles and the Wand.
The members do not fight for different beliefs, but are very united and work hard for the same goal——
Discover the path to the crucible, the truth of alchemy.
The esoteric name "Midnight Rose" implies a profound meaning.
Also known as "five-leaf rose".
Because the legendary four-leaf clover is the manifestation of the four elements of the universe in the material world. The founder believes that the five-leaf rose represents the fifth element of the universe -
The Philosopher's Stone!
This is a supreme product of alchemy that only exists in theory. It can be called the crystallization of wisdom that integrates immortality, power, energy and truth. It is also a miracle.
The so-called "mercury battery" is just a poor imitation of the Philosopher's Stone. No, it's not even an imitation, it's just a little thing that the alchemists inadvertently created while searching for the Philosopher's Stone.
"Mr. White Sage, so, do you have mercury batteries in your hands?"
Gilan expressed his needs.
"Of course." The man on the other end of the phone chuckled, seeming to find this question ridiculous.
It's like an ignorant child who ran to the door of the bakery and shouted loudly, asking if there was any bread for sale.
“So what about the mysterious materials needed to refine the potion?”
Gilan asked again.
“For example, ‘Sulfur Gas’, ‘Yingshan’, ‘Whirlpool’ and ‘Black Jade Stone’.”
What he said are actually “wick magic potions” "The main materials needed.
"Of course there are." White Sage said. "We do trade with outsiders, but only for mercury batteries and some common mysterious materials. The materials you mentioned are of high value, and only those who have joined the 'Midnight Rose' are eligible for trading."
" That’s it, thank you for your answer.”
Jilan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
He glanced at the red line at the bottom of the "Alchemy Hotline" in his hand. The linked mercury battery had shrunk from the size of a lychee to the size of a longan, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.
He quickly said:
"Mr. White Sage, I would like to buy some mercury batteries from you first, is that okay?"
"Of course, no problem." said the man on the other end of the phone. "However, the two countries of Bu'ao and Bu'ao have recently started a war on the eastern border. This type of restricted-grade energy is in short supply. The price has risen to 150 Caesars a piece. Can you accept it?"
Gilan frowned slightly and said no. To think the price has gone up so much.
But he had to buy it, it was a necessity, so he responded:
"I can accept it. I want to buy four coins, how can I trade them?"
"It's very simple." said the other end of the phone. "You will know if you put the 'hot line' on a flat table or the ground."
Hearing this, Jilan doubtfully released the microphone from his ear, and then put it on the ear as if hanging up the phone. on the wooden floor.
Crack.
Next second.
Buzz!
I saw a flash of golden light.
On the dark brown wooden floor, with the microphone as the center, an extremely complex equilateral triangle alchemical array with a diameter of one meter appeared on its own!
Jilan suppressed the shock and put the microphone to her ear again, then heard the White Sage say:
"Just put the currency required for the transaction into the alchemy array. .”
