Chapter 244 Brothers (7)
“Oh… I see.“ Feng Bujue saw some golden hairs between his fingers. Many doubts are solved at this moment. “From my subjective perspective, I am still myself……” He held out his hand and looked at his sleeve and palm, his outfit was unmistakably the Joker style with yellow skin, and he could see his black hair hazily.
He took those hairs to the magnifying glass and observed them carefully. “But, from an objective perspective of the scenario world, I should be another person. When the hair leaves the whole body, I can see what it really looks like.” He put the hair on the desk, took the little wooden comb out of his pocket, and examined the remaining hair on it with the magnifying glass. “Well……The colour, length, and texture are all similar.”
He thought for more than a minute, “Wait… When the scenario started, I only brushed my head twice. Unless my character has severe hair loss, there shouldn’t be so much hair on this comb.” Think about this, he reached out and scratched his hair a few more times, this time with a little strength.
Unexpectedly, when he put his hand back in front of him, he saw a large mass of hair, one of which was attached to a small bloody scalp.
“Oh my god… “Feng Bujue quickly opened the menu to view, but the survival value did not reduce. He took a minute to feel it, but he did not feel any particular pain in his scalp.
“Well well well…… Calm down… Calm down…” He said, rather nervously, as if the loss of hair is a serious matter to him.
He threw his hair, calmed his emotion and realized something else, “So far, I have not found anything like a mirror at all. Is that because the system doesn’t want me to see ‘myself’?”
Feng Bujue moved his sight on the picture again. “Let’s say the little guy on the left is the short man dragging me around in the opening CG, and the other guy is the guy I’m playing, but what had caused their relationship developed like this?” He thought, turning the picture over.
On the back of the photo, there’s a handwritten line of text – “Arthur and Andrew, my children, my love.”
“Oh, are these two brothers……” Feng Bujue thought, “Wait, Arthur and Andrew?” He took up the little wooden comb again and saw the letter A.A., “Arthur and Andrew?” He touched his chin and thought, “I said it’s a limited edition, hehe…… “
For the next ten minutes, Feng Bujue read Advanced Alchemy with great interest.
The first thing he saw when he flipped over the dark blue cover is this: “After studying Alchemy basics, you may think that the pinnacle of this art is turning metals into gold, or making some life-prolonging potion.
This book will tell you that such thoughts are extremely stupid.
Alchemy is the divine technique that makes man equal to god. Those with minds full of money and eternal life will never touch the realm of god.”
Although the wording and context of this paragraph are mocking and warning, but Feng Bujue had no adverse feeling. There is no doubt that these words exude a noble and cold aura, and this kind of temperament could arouse the enthusiasm of Feng Bujue the most.
Unfortunately, he can just read the catalogue and the first chapter. The second chapter and the content behind it are all just fuzzy… However, Feng Bujue can’t even fully understand the contents of the first chapter, probably because he had not read the Alchemy Foundation, he had no clue about many of the terms in the first chapter.
“Chemistry requires at least a high school degree, and a large amount of knowledge of the so-called ‘Philosophization of substances’ is needed to complete the three processes of ‘Understanding, Decomposition and Reconstruction’ and put to use the simplest alchemy.” After Feng Bujue found he can’t read the second chapter, he closed the book and said to himself: “From only a few examples in this first chapter, I can see the extent of the complexity of the alchemy formula… On this basis, the combination of astrology, amulet literature, as well as the alchemists’ personal ability, talent is needed to simplified all things above into a Forming Array.” He looked up and sighed, “Arthur in that video is probably a 10 years old teenager, but he was reading this book with a calm face… Genius…… “
This Advanced Alchemy is classified as a plot item that can’t be taken out of the scenario, and will definitely be used later in the game, so Feng Bujue just put it in his bag, and the photo was put in the inside pocket of his coat.
Then he searched the whole study room again, found nothing. So, he took the kerosene lamp and the magnifying glass and started for the next room.
Next door is the kitchen, the hearth and chimney are all beside the door’s opposite wall. The hearth is very dirty, but it can be seen from the traces above that it is still used. There are cabinets below the hearth, and there are closets, cupboards on the surrounding walls.
In the middle of the kitchen, there is a four-legged wooden table about two meters in height. A tablecloth spread on the dirty table that its original pattern can’t be seen. A large bowl of meat sauce is placed on the wooden table, alongside an unwashed plate that also contains some meat sauce.
Look out of the kitchen window, Feng Bujue saw the same view as the study room… Dark and chaotic. Technically, the glass at this state can be used as a mirror, but Feng Bujue only saw a pile of hazy black shadow after he walked to its front. Then he found a few metal cookware, polished it up, and tried to use them as mirrors to look himself, but failed.
“The system just doesn’t want me to look in the mirror, does it?” Feng Bujue shrugged and said.
Then he opened each cupboard and rummaged for what might be a clue. The result was a lot of pots and pans, but there’s no knife or clue…
“This room can’t have nothing valuable……” He searched the kitchen and said, “There are kerosene lamps in the storeroom, magnifying glasses, photographs and books in the study room, there should be……” As he spoke, his eyes rested on the bowl of meat sauce on the table.
“Well, let’s just try……” He turned the bowl upside down to let the sauce flow to the table, then took the bowl to one side and stirred it with his hands.
As a result, he found a key unexpectedly:
[Name: Red key]
[Type: Plot related]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Function: Permanently unlock the red iron door, and disappear immediately after use]
[Whether can be taken out of the scenario: No]
[Note: Hidden in the red stuff.]
