Struggle in the Steam Age
Chapter 218: Clues
For the transcendents, another way is to find the source of this stealth suit through prophetic magic. But the ragged clothes in front of me have been left for more than two hundred years. If you want to find out information from this thing, you need at least one hero-level spellcaster who specializes in predictive spells.
But the problem is that Lawrence and the others simply cannot pay the price of being invited to cast spells for them so much, not to mention that they were not just a guess about the existence of the treasure before.
"Hey, don't let your head down." At this time, Lawrence said to everyone after looking at the dress on the ground seriously, because he found that the dress on the ground was made very rough when it was made, so he thought of seeing it in his previous life. The content of an archaeological show of. "I thought of a way to find out where this thing was made."
"How to find?" Everyone who was still depressed just now became excited, especially Zhu Yan, who just thought he was going to take a dip in this adventure. "If you need our help, just say, if we can help, we will do our best to help."
"I need a laboratory." Lawrence said, "This dress is made very crudely. If there is help from the equipment in the laboratory, I think I might be able to find some clues in it."
"Laboratory?" Zhu Yan thought for a moment, "I just know that there is a place where you can rent an alchemy laboratory. It's just that that laboratory is specifically for renting out to the extraordinary to make medicines for use, and there are only some very common ones. Equipment—"
"The problem is not big." After listening to Zhu Yan talking about the laboratory facilities, Lawrence said that it was not a problem for him, because he also carried some equipment in his pocket, and after adding the equipment in the laboratory, he was asked about what he would do next. Enough for work.
After deciding on the next itinerary, Zhu Yan asked a murloc who came ashore to send a note to the tribe on the barge, and then used a square bronze medal embossed with a horse to summon a horse to the city. Past. Lawrence also used the Phantom Horse Bracelet to summon the Phantom Horse after packing everything up, carrying himself and Syfiel behind.
Soon four people entered a park in the suburbs of Xinhuiji, and then led by Zhu Yan to the entrance of a three-story building. The buildings on the New Island Republic are often constructed with characteristics: In the main part of the room, most of these buildings are built with bricks and cement like the Federal side, and a small number of buildings recently built are made of reinforced concrete. .
However, the part of the roof of the house is very distinctive, and you can see the unique bucket arch structure of the eastern countries led by Sinian. Moreover, the design and the building body look very harmonious after being integrated, as if it should have been combined in this way.
"This kind of architecture is the latest trend in Aurora." Seeing Lawrence and Syfier looking at this building with curiosity, Okita Sakura stepped forward and explained, "Said it is a traditional culture and art. Combined with modern craftsmanship."
"Yes." Zhu Yan, who was walking in the front, stopped after hearing the voice from behind, turned his head and said, "This is better than our traditional wood frame structure, and it can be built at a lower cost. Buildings with higher floors and better fire protection performance. But many of our extraordinary people don’t like this kind of building. They think this kind of building is dead, and only the original wooden structure is alive."
A few people walked through the hall and came to an iron fence door. With a jingle, a cage-like car made of iron fences descended from the upper patio, and then the fence opened. .
"Last year the boss here specially added this new steam elevator to the building." After everyone walked into the car, Zhu Yan said to Lawrence while pressing the brass button on the side of the car with the number three written on it. of. "Then by the way, I increased the rental cost of the laboratory for this reason."
With a jingling sound, the car quickly ascended to the third floor and opened the door. Then they walked through the corridor and walked into an office with an open door. Soon after a brief negotiation, Lawrence and the others rented a small laboratory.
After entering the laboratory, Lawrence immediately took out the stealth suit found in the gold box from the space bag, and then began to use a scalpel to cut small fingertip-sized samples from various parts of the suit.
After obtaining these samples, Lawrence processed the samples with several agents. Then he observed the processed samples under a microscope, and soon he found some things he hoped to find on this sample.
"Okay, I think I found the key clue." After more than two hours, Lawrence observed the last sample and made the record, turning his head to look at the other three people who were waiting and said.
"The key clue has been found?" Saifei, who was chatting with Okita Sakura, immediately stood up and asked, "Do you already know where this thing is produced?"
"Not for the time being, because I don't know the environment very well." Lawrence shrugged and picked up the notebook just used for recording, and then looked at the three pairs of curious eyes of friends sitting on the sofa and said, "But I Basically, some features of the place where this thing was made can be restored."
"Because this piece of clothing is very rough, it looks like a temporary rush to work. So in the production process, the wild quilt skin is naturally not handled properly, and even the most basic cleaning is not completely cleaned up." Lawrence introduced The process I just looked for. "In this way, I easily found some small things, such as tiny plant fibers, and pollen in the areas where the leather and leather were stitched together."
"What can be determined now is the following points. First of all, this costume was probably made in a cave, because I found a lot of spores of fluorescent mushrooms, smoke moss and a fragment of the shell of a horse Lu. Things will only appear in the cold and humid caves."
"Secondly, I accidentally found a handful of centipede grass spores and masson pine pollen in the crevices of this dress. This means that the person who wore this dress had walked through many plants in April and May. Place. And the war that year broke out in mid-April."
"Finally, I just burned some of the hair on the clothes and treated them with chemicals~lightnovelpub.net~ and found that the arsenic content in the fur of these wild quills was obviously higher than the standard, which shows that there should be mineral deposits containing arsenic in the place where they live. "
"It's amazing." Zhu Yan, who was drowsy just because the two ladies were chatting but couldn't interrupt, immediately became energetic. "And I think with this, we can probably lock the place where this dress is made, after all. That person hurriedly made a piece of clothing into the wreckage, which means that he is most likely to complete this work near the beach for convenience."
Having said that, Zhu Yan turned his head and looked at the two ladies, only to find that Okita Sakura's face showed a thoughtful expression.
"Did you think of something?" Zhu Yan asked, because he knew that the small fishing village in Okinawa's hometown was only three or four kilometers away from the beach they went to. It would take about two hours to walk along the mountain road. . So after Lawrence said so much information, Okita Sakura probably discovered something.
"I'm not sure--" Okita Sakura subconsciously stretched out her index finger to her mouth and said after thinking about it, "but there is indeed a mountain near my house with large tracts of centipede grass and masson pine, and someone has picked it up there. Realgar. The most important thing is that there are many wild quilts near that mountain. Even when it is about to rain, wild quilts will fly over our village—"
