The door squeaked open, and Richard stepped into Frank's tavern.

The thick bloody aura gathered around as if it had become a substance, and at a glance, corpses were everywhere.

The walls were covered with patches of blood, like children's graffiti, but in this bad environment, it was more like a demon mural in a cult, and the atmosphere was eerie and eerie. The corpses were piled up one by one, and each of them had a variety of expressions on their faces, some were frightened, some were angry, some were dazed, some were contemptuous, and of course more panicked, and the atmosphere was tragic and chaotic.

Richard's gaze became a little solemn, and he walked around the tavern, scanning the carnage scene, wondering what had happened here. For a moment, the eyes flashed, and something was discovered.

Richard walked over to Bucky, who was lying on the ground covered in blood, and noticed that he was still breathing weakly.

With a flip of his hand, Richard quickly took out the red "Life Elixir" from the spatial iron ring and poured it into Bucky's mouth.

The "Elixir of Life" is not a holy medicine for "life and death, flesh and bones", it can only treat a certain degree of injury of a person, and it is difficult for Richard to determine how much it can play at this time, but it can only be used as a live horse doctor.

Pouring the "Elixir of Life" into Bucky's mouth, and after waiting for a half-sound, Bucky coughed lightly, his body shook, and slowly opened his eyes. The gaze cast from the eyes was a little straight, and it took a long time to return to some normal.

Bucky turned his head to look at Richard with difficulty, and said word by word, "Yes...... People have been here...... We ......"

"Who came? Who did it to you?" Richard asked seriously, looking at Bucky. The "life potion" obviously played a role, but Richard could see that Bucky's injuries were too serious, and the potion was at most to prolong the other party's life for a short time, and he had to ask for enough information in this world to judge the current situation.

Bucky replied, "Yes...... It's two people, one ...... A man and a woman, the man is very ...... It's very ordinary, the female is a little strange, and the voice is ......"

Richard's eyes flashed when he heard this, and his eyes quickly flashed over the two members of the mysterious organization, Somen and Mukoni. Is it the other party?

"What are they doing here, why are they doing it to you?" asked Richard.

"Yes...... It's books. Bucky spat out, "When they come, they ask for books, and you're ...... The book you asked us to find......"

"Is that ......" Richard's eyebrows furrowed, this was similar to what he expected, after all, the other party had done it to the young man who came out of the auction house because of the books, and it was also to Angel's teacher Eva because of the books, and now it was against the Iron Brothers.

"But......" Bucky said again, with a bit of contempt and pride on his face, "but ...... They didn't succeed. ”

"Huh?" Richard frowned.

"Steel ...... Iron cannot be shaped, the Brotherhood of Steel will not be defeated, and the members of the Brotherhood of Steel will not succumb - Forever ...... Far from yielding. So, even if they killed us all, they didn't ask us where the books were, and what the books were...... It's still in our hands. ”

"This!" Richard looked at Bucky, who was really a little surprised, he didn't expect it to happen.

Bucky turned his body with difficulty, and stretched one arm behind his back, reaching downward, as if inserting it into a part of his body, and groping for a while, pulling something out of it.

Picking it up in front of him, Richard glanced at it and saw that it was ...... An iron rod more than twenty centimeters long.

This one......

"Well, no...... It's not this, take ...... Wrong ......," Bucky said, dropping the iron rod and touching it behind his back again, inserting it into a certain part of his body, groping for a while, and pulling out a second thing from it.

Bringing it to him, Richard saw that it was...... A fist-sized bead for which I don't know what to do.

"Also...... It's not the ......," Bucky said with some annoyance, trembling his arm, and reached behind his back for the third time, inserting it into a part of his body, groping for a while, and pulling out a third thing from it.

Before he got it, Richard saw that it was a book, which should be the book he entrusted the Brotherhood of Steel to find according to the agreement.

When Richard saw the book, he didn't pick it up quickly. Because there was something strange in my heart at this moment, I was more curious about the place where these things were hidden behind by Bucky, so they were not searched by the two people of the mysterious organization of Somen and Mu Koni.

It won't be ......

But if it really is, then the iron rods and beads before are all in it?

This......

Bucky seemed to realize what Richard was thinking, and said loudly, "Don't ...... Come to think of it, these things are actually in my muscle pockets. ”

As he spoke, Bucky turned around with difficulty and showed his back to Richard.

Richard saw that on Bucky's back, there was a narrow incision, like a zipper of a pocket, and it was from this wound that Bucky made a pocket for storing things from the flesh of his body.

This is some kind of transformational construct-based spell, and Bucky is also a wizard's apprentice, so he can naturally learn it.

Richard also knew a little about this kind of spell, although it can be stored, extremely safe, will not be lost, and will not be stolen, but once something is put into it, the flesh and blood of the body will have to withstand the friction with the object, and it will be miserable. Unless you are a person with great perseverance, or someone who takes abuse as pleasure, you can endure it.

In other words, this kind of spell, in order to gain a certain use, the price paid is quite large, and almost no one uses it, but it does not rule out special circumstances, such as Bucky, who have to use it in order to save the key items of the Brotherhood of Steel. After all, not everyone can have space storage props.

With this in mind, Richard reached out and took the book from Bucky's hand, glanced at it briefly, and made sure it was in the Spatial Iron Ring. Looking at Bucky again, he found that Bucky was already on his side, lying motionless on the ground, his eyes still open.

"Whew-"

Richard took a deep breath, stroked Bucky's face with his hand, closed Bucky's eyelids, stood up, turned around, and walked towards the door.

Walking out into the street, Richard noticed that at some point, it had become as dead as a cemetery, and there was no sound.

The lights of the neighboring shops on the street shone through his face, and Richard's eyes flickered. Tilting his head slightly, he looked at his arm, and saw that the hairs on his skin stood up automatically under some kind of stimulation. Richard could feel the suffocating atmosphere around him, and a powerful danger was slowly approaching.

He's in a trap.
