Chapter 233 Doors and Relics

"Lower temperatures below freezing allow better preservation of liquids."

priest shook the test tube while talking to Shade. Shade was then shown his "refrigerator" in this basement. It was a metal box wrapped with quilts, straw, and canvas. Inside the box were ice cubes. The ice cubes were cut out with large holes to store medicines or herbs that had to be stored in low temperature.

Auguspriest just opened it up for Shade to take a look, and before the cold air even came out, it was immediately covered by the priest:
"Ice in Tobesque is very expensive in summer, I This is from."

The old priest blushed uncommonly:

"Have some from the church's wear and tear. So, St. Byron's Chemistry Academy is very You can't learn these things without money."

But Shade doesn't have to worry about the Heart Demon's medicine storage, his house is huge and there's a lot of free space at home. After learning these things from the priest, he planned to convert part of the basement into an ice room. Although he can't make ice, he can snow and can control the size of the snow.

Just beware of the curious cat breaking into the ice room. Although it is timid outside, it is very curious about the things at home.

In addition to the extraction liquid, Shade also handed over some ore and some labeled liquids he brought back from Cold Harbor City to Auguste Priest for identification (note).

Unfortunately, most of that stuff is worthless, and warehouse dispatchers don't have the means to identify ring warlock materials. The most valuable is a fist-sized piece of silver ore, which is about 12 pounds.

Shade sold the whole bunch to the priest for just 11 pounds, and thanked the priest for helping to make the extract thinner for free.

He will definitely come to trouble the priority in the future, so the account must be calculated clearly, but it does not have to be calculated too clearly.

Augus priest, of course, didn't want to take advantage of Shade, and finally accepted it after shirk for a while. However, if this batch of materials makes a lot of money after the sale, he plans to donate part of the excess money to the church:

"Mr. Dawn will bless us."

priest Reverently draw the holy emblem on the chest, and tell Shade that repeating any Oracle or God's words, coupled with the action of drawing the holy emblem, can constitute the most basic "prayer ceremony" in the dive technique ceremony. This is learning content that the Academy ring warlock will not touch.

It was only ten o'clock in the morning after saying goodbye to the priest. Anticipating that the reply to the expedited letter should not have come back, he stopped by Old John's pawn shop.

There were customers in the store when I entered, but luckily it was just an ordinary person. Shade wandered around the store pretending to be curious, taking a closer look at the pawned goods on the shelves that looked like junk but seemed to have some value.

There is almost everything here. If Shade is not ready to buy some new furniture to fill up the empty room, he can buy used goods from here at a very low price and bring them home.

Wait until the guest leaves before walking to the counter.

"The relic you asked me to help you find will take a while. That kind of request is not easy to find."

This is the first sentence of Old John.

"It doesn't matter, and you can increase the price. Now that you have money, you can increase the purchase price to 200 pounds." Busy with accounting. He just spent 3 pounds to buy a pipe from a poor middle age person. It is said that it is an antique:
"I saw you in the newspaper, 200 pounds is given to you by Ridwich Field. When did they get so generous? I thought they would give you £100 at most. Oh, and what's the royal family's personal thanks to you?"

He lifts the head to Shade said with a smile:
"If you don't mind, how about taking it out for me to gain insight? I can give you an estimate."

"The queen gave me a ruby ring, please bring it next time. This time, there are two things."

Shade stretched out two fingers:

"First, I want a normal item that can be used as a pendant Does the door have a door? Made of metal, it should be smaller, the door itself must have a keyhole, and it can be pushed open."

"What are you doing."

Old John was taken aback for a moment. , then put down the pen in his hand, and looked towards Shade in surprise:

"Last time you bought a time key. Oh, this idea of yours is really interesting, interesting, wait, I'll find it for you Just a moment.”

Shade was looking for this pendant, of course, for the [time key], the next key was available in the early hours of Thursday morning, and the time for action with the two ladies was Thursday night.

It's certainly nice to get into the second trip early and gain strength before the battle. But if you keep the key, go into the past in a pinch, give yourself some respite, and even be able to gain strength from the past in a targeted manner, it seems like a good idea.

Shade was thinking about this yesterday while swimming under the seabed, and finally decided to save access to the keys until Thursday night. If you really encounter troubles that cannot be solved, there is at least one chance to fight your luck. And entering in advance, but completely do not know what to prepare.

But if you want to use the [Time Key] in battle, a new problem arises, that is, you don't necessarily have a door around you when you fight with the Silver Eyed.

【Time Key】The judgment of the door is very loose. As long as the door has a keyhole, it can be pushed open. It does not limit the style and size of the door. The key can automatically match the keyhole. That's why Shade thought of getting a door-shaped pendant.

But the book doesn't mention whether this kind of door is possible, so it's still a test.

Old John was also very interested in Shade's whims, and quickly found what he wanted from the junk he reclaimed.

The pendant is made of pure metal, and the pendant itself is a door. The skilled manufacturer uses bearings and nuts to enable the small door leaf to be pushed open, and the door frame and the door body are bonded together with magnets, and there is no need to worry about shaking and causing the door leaf to be opened.

The keyhole is only the size of a pinhole. Looking at the light, it can be found that the keyhole directly penetrates both sides of the door, which is a transparent structure.

"Come and try."

Old John urged, he liked the fresh idea.

Shade holds the door in the palm of his left hand, and takes the time key he bought last time out of his pocket. Pushing the key against the door, only to find that the key itself is almost bigger than the door.

But with a slight poke, the key actually "entered" into the pinhole-sized keyhole. And the part that did not enter, still maintains the normal size.

Shade continues to push the key inward until only the key handle is exposed.

Old John eyebrows raised and smiled, Shade whispered:
"May the Father of the Infinite Tree bless me in time."

After chanting, he turned gently , Sure enough, it couldn't be turned because the time didn't come, but this itself represented that Shade's attempt was successful.

"Interesting, really interesting, I really didn't expect it before, but [Time Key] can still be used like this."

Old John said with a smile on his face , and let Shade try from the other side of the door, the key can still be inserted.

This kind of novel idea is actually not complicated. People in the past have never thought of it, probably because those who have entered the past have never thought of taking the journey of the past as a resting point.

If Shade is not forced by the pressure of reality, he also wants to enter the past time in a stable environment.

"I want this pendant, how much?"

Shade didn't even ask the other party to wrap the pendant, but hung it directly after confirming that there was no rust on the surface. on the neck.

"I don't need money, I'll give it to you for free."

Old John shook his head.

"Why are you so generous this time?"

Shade asked suspiciously, this was not like the other party's performance.

"First of all, do you take me for who?"

The old man raised his head slightly, not giving Shade a chance to answer this question:

"You just now The idea is enough to pay the price.”

“What else?”

Shade asked again.

The pawn shop owner looked at him and smiled:
"Don't you have one more thing? Then, what else do you need to buy? I can give you a good price."

He twitched his fingers at Shade, that's what Papa John was doing right.

Shade sighed standing in front of the counter:

"Well, this time you probably have a chance to kill me fiercely, I'll buy a low ring warlock and use it Yes, the offensive [relic] with weak negative characteristics. I can take out three hundred and fifty pounds in cash here."

In addition to the money reserved for emergency situations, he took it out. most of your savings. But since he was going to fight the silver-eyed man, there was no reason to keep a lot of money for use.

Shade is stingy, but he knows he can't save some money.

"What are you going to do?"

Old John asked in surprise, the older people have more experience and see things more directly:
"I Knowing your finances, even if you make a fortune, you shouldn't spend it like this. Are you going to go find someone else?"

"Almost, so I lack a handy weapon. I know a really powerful relic, 300 pounds can't buy it at all, I still have a few Rhodes cards here, which can be mortgaged to you temporarily. The appraisal certificate is all there, so you don't have to worry about it being a counterfeit." John stopped, the old man shook his head and said:
"Do you think that relics with small negative characteristics and strong positive characteristics are everywhere? If you want me, it is impossible to take them out immediately. Even if I can take them out, you are sure I can't afford it. Why don't you tell me what the person you are dealing with is good at, and I can find you some cheaper targeted relics."

After hesitating for a while, Old John advised again:
"Youngster still has to learn to be patient, don't always think about dueling with others. You only have one link, and you shouldn't arbitrarily mix in dangerous things."

"But this time, I have to make a trip. As for the opponent. Sorry, I can't say more, but the opponent was seriously injured, I think it should be fine."

"The current youngster is really"

The old man sighed, Then walked out the counter and left the antique store through the back door.

Shade waited for a full twenty minutes before Old John came back with a grey wooden box. The box looked a few years old. Old John told Shade to avoid it. He blew on the box, and the dust drifted out immediately.

Wait until the dust settles before opening the box and pushing it to Shade. Inside is a golden candle, or rather, a length of candle. The thickness of the pen may have been very long, but now it is less than the length of a thumb.

PS: Part of the ore was lost, but not all.
