Chapter 548: The Greatest Treasure (6)

Treasure hunting is arguably one of the most fascinating settings in RPG games, and it's a matter of course or outcome that matters more.

There are some players who are not interested in what exactly the treasure they will get in the end, what matters is the process of treasure hunting. They will find something more precious than treasure in the process, happiness.

Well, it depends on how you understand this sentence, don't blame me for not reminding you if you want to get dirty......

An Yizhi belongs to the insatiable type that is important to both parties, he enjoys the process of treasure hunting, and also enjoys the benefits of treasures, both hands must be grasped, and both hands must be hard...... How do you feel like it's still a little dirty?

"Empty?"

This time, however, he was disappointed, and when he came to the hollow in the middle of the study, he saw that a long strip of space had cracked in the original wooden floor, and there was nothing inside.

Reaching out and touching it, I felt the cold, metallic bottom plate, and a slightly greasy feel.

"Engine oil?"

Smell it, it smells similar.

After a long time of hard work, I found that it was empty, which could not be accepted by An Yizhi, although it was possible that other guests found here first and took away things, but it is not good to find out how to be worthy of the reputation of scraping the ground and peeling the skin?

- It's a good reputation, isn't it......

He fumbled along the edge in the cavity under the floor before stumbling across something like a handle, about a finger long and smooth with the feel of polished metal.

An Yizhi was shocked, this is likely to be the switch of a certain mechanism, but you still have to be careful, maybe the floor will close as soon as you break down, and then An Yizhi can pretend to be Captain Hook with an iron hook......

He concentrated, prepared to flee quickly in case of danger, and then slammed it hard.

After only the sound of gears snapping, the cavity beneath the floor opened again, revealing a white light from below.

There was no danger, and Ann pointed down the open hole.

"It's ...... The concert hall on the first floor? ”

The dining room and concert hall occupy a very large space, they occupy part of the space on the second floor, and the study is located right above them, so that the opening in the study floor is just right to see the concert hall below.

"This hole...... Is it for the maintenance of the swans in the concert hall? ”

The concert hall on the first floor has a huge mechanical swan clock, enclosed in four glass walls. An Yizhi was a little puzzled at first, there was not even an entrance, what if it broke or dusted, so it seemed that he only needed to put a ladder down from here in the study to do maintenance work.

"I'll admit that having an entrance on the glass wall would affect the aesthetics, but you don't need to make such a mechanism just to help the mechanical swans downstairs, right?"

I really couldn't imagine what the owner here was thinking, An Yi glanced at it a few times, and didn't find anything abnormal, so he broke the mechanism again and closed the hole.

I feel that this hole is more than that, maybe there is something worth exploring on the mechanical swan, but An Yizhi has no ladder at hand now, there is no way to go down, and jumping directly is likely to be broken into half a body, so he has to give up.

Having said that, this mechanism seems to be a pain, but it also shows Edward's superb mechanical manufacturing ability that he has no friends, after the hole is closed, there is no gap at all, only by carefully groping with his hands can he hazy touch a little edge, such fine parts processing, usually require very high-end CNC machine tools to achieve, and now in the 1930s, the CNC machine tools that talked about a fart, even electronic computers did not appear, it can be seen that they are all handmade.

Annichi was a little convinced of the rumors he had heard from Anasta about the amazing mechanics Edward's creation, and the level of detail alone was enough to stand out from the crowd.

The use of the hole in the middle of the room was unknown for the time being, and there were no clues or hints, so An Yizhi had to walk to the hole near the single sofa to take a look.

This time he was not disappointed.

It was a long recess much smaller than the previous one, about the size of a book, and it did have something in it, but it was ...... A book?

To be honest, Anyi couldn't be sure of himself, because he was more like a delicate clock or some kind of sophisticated automata than a book.

It was about ten centimeters long and five or six centimeters wide, and it was more like a small notepad than a book. But it has a number of working brass gears on the cover, and even a key-shaped clockwork on the spine. In the upper left corner, there is also a row of flipping metal plates, each with a number engraved on it.

An Yi pointed to the copy option and saw that the system time was exactly the same as the time displayed on the metal plate, and it was exactly the same as the second.

In the hand, it feels more like a metal block than a book, with a similar weight and feel.

Immediately, he put the spine of the book horizontally in front of his eyes, and drew a circle around the key-shaped clockwork to indicate the time, and now the clockwork position was at 0, and there were 10, 20.30, and so on next door, all the way to 60. Give him a feel that is a lot like a mechanical timer on an old-fashioned home appliance.

It looks so chic on the outside, I guess it's a good thing, right?

An Yi refers to opening item properties.

【Book of Organs】

Attribute: Strange Things

Grade: Perfect

Effect: Twist the clockwork to select the time, and input mana at the same time to summon a controllable golem to help in the battle, the golem level is the same as the wielder, and the maximum level does not exceed 40. The duration depends on the time chosen by the clockwork and does not exceed 1 hour (60 minutes).

Description: An ancient and delicate book, but no written record is made.

Equipment conditions: Character level 25, any human, limited to the elven race.

This book of organs...... Honestly, it feels subtle.

While it's nice to be able to summon a golem with a maximum level of 40 to help in battle, it's not so useful for An Yizhi.

As a meat shield, he has Graeme, don't look at Graeme is now at the full level of 30, but he has rough skin and thick flesh, and under normal circumstances, he doesn't need to change it when he uses it until he reaches level 50, and he also has a 'Seven Rings Refining Array' skill on his Mithril robe, which can summon all the alchemy creatures from the Rock Peak Titan to the Iron Golem in about ten minutes, and the practical value is higher than this book of organs.

The only advantage is probably that the activation speed is relatively fast, right? But in this regard, he has the Orb of Death that can summon a level 40 bone dragon.......

There is no meat to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it, this thing is very chicken.

However, the final equipment conditions of this book are a bit surprising to An Yizhi, only humans, and the use of races such as elves is a little strange.

Generally, race-specific equipment is a weapon or armor.

For example, the dwarven tomahawk, the famous weapon of the dwarves, can only be used by the dwarves, and other races cannot be equipped at all, and even if they are barely held, they cannot exert their power.

This is because the dwarven tomahawk is specially designed for the height and size of the dwarf, and if a human uses it, it is awkward to use it, and it is easy to smash his own feet.

As for halflings and gnomes who are about the same height as dwarves...... They can't hold it.

But this kind of race-defining stuff rarely appears on strange objects.

This is a strange place, but An Yizhi didn't pay too much attention to it. As the so-called mule is a horse out of the horse, when the time comes, you just need to try to know the reason.

Of course, this will wait until the dungeon is cleared.

Although the book of organs is a little heavy, it is not big, only the size of a notebook, and put it in the pocket on the inside of the suit, and Ann touched it with one finger and felt inconspicuous.

Harvested a perfect-level item, even if it is relatively weak, but it is a good harvest after all, especially for a normal difficulty dungeon, An Yizhi is more satisfied.

But there was more than just the Book of Organs in that hollow, and he found a note pressed under the Book of Organs.

Ann took it out with a finger and put it under her nose and sniffed. You can still smell the faint aroma of paper and ink, and it is estimated that this thing has not been here for a long time, that is, it is a recent thing.

He unfolded the slip of paper and wrote a large string of English in beautiful flowery characters, but fortunately it had a systematic translation, otherwise An Yizhi would only scratch the wall and scratch blind.

- It's such a tragedy to be a scumbag who can't even remember 24 or 26 letters......

'First of all, I would like to congratulate you on the discovery of the treasure I have hidden, but alas, you have only obtained one of my works, which is of great value, but not my true wealth, and she remains asleep in my mansion until someone awakens her. ’

The inscription is Edward. Pickles.

The Book of Organs is Edward's work, so does Edward know some spells?

This is a very high possibility, but as mentioned above, it cannot be ruled out that all kinds of incredible miracles will naturally appear in the works that a good craftsman like him has worked so hard to produce, so it cannot be rashly inferred that this copy is an unscientific copy under the cloak of science for the time being.

But......

"She? Sleep? The adjective ......"

Usually sleep is used to describe people or animals, of course, it can also be used to describe countries and the like, but in any case, the word 'sleep' is an anthropomorphic descriptive technique, and it seems a little wrong to use it to describe objects, especially when it is followed by the phrase 'awakening' at the end.

Or did Edward love his work to the point where he saw it as his own child?

This is possible, and many great craftsmen and writers have this in common.

However, the previous sentence 'the treasure I hid' makes this inference untenable, and the Book of Mechanisms is regarded by Edward as a 'treasure', an object, rather than a child who treats it as his own......

There are some contradictions in the rhetoric before and after, and maybe it's a clue.

An Yizhi put the note in the notepad, turned his head to reset the mechanism, and then made sure that there was nothing in the study that was worth searching for, and then walked out of the study.

At this time, Tu Hongyu stepped on the third floor of the stairs and happened to see An Yizhi coming out of the study.

"Did you find any clues?"

Tu Hongyu asked.

Ann covered her face with one finger and one hand, revealing only one eye, and let out a low laugh:

"Kuku Kukuku...... It's funny, it's funny that the wisdom of a mere mortal dares to challenge me. ”

Tu Hongyu: "......"

Is there any strange switch turned on in this secondary two disease?
