The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 894

Chapter 894

“Then Mr. Rao Yougui…huh?” Just when Du Lei nodded, planning to leave the train station with the ghost temporarily.

He suddenly noticed that something was aiming at him on a tall building not far away.

Relying solely on the instinctive reaction of his body, Du Lei subconsciously tilted his body and turned his head to the side, almost at the same time there was a clear sound.

Along with a “bang”, a bullet passed through the heavy rain and mist and took his head straight.

Fortunately, Du Lei reacted quickly and avoided this shot in time. As the gun fired, the guards who had been performing guard duties near the railway station immediately took action, and Elsa who was standing in Du Lei’s team even more. Excited.

There was not much panic on her face, which meant that she was not surprised by the appearance of the gunshot, and all she showed on her face was deep anger.

“Over there! Be sure to catch him, absolutely can’t let him escape this time!” Elsa didn’t care about checking Du Lei’s condition, she locked the attacker’s position for the first time.

Under her order, nearby guards immediately rushed towards the location where the attack was launched.

Obviously, the opponent was sniping at a long distance, even if it was behind a heavy rain curtain, and it was night again, it was unrealistic.

But Du Lei could still see a vague outline rushing away.

“This…does the magical energy remaining from the magical energy react?” As the target of the assassination just now, Du Lei didn’t panic the least.

He turned his head and looked at the wall behind him.

When he just turned sideways to avoid the bullet that hit him, although the bullet did not hit him, it hit the wall behind him. You can see that a deep bullet hole appeared in the wall.

There are traces of mana reaction in the air. Du Lei can easily determine that the gunpowder gun that shot him remotely just now is not an ordinary gunpowder gun, because in this kind of weather, the gunpowder gun can’t be used, and it can’t be used. He was shooting at such a long distance, so the one who attacked him just now was the magic bullet that was compressed into bullets by using magic energy to attack him.

This kind of magic bullet is powerful and has more penetrating power and lethality than ordinary bullets. Judging by the traces of magic reaction left on the scene, Du Lei speculated that the lethality of this magic bullet , If it is converted into a mana unit index so few, it also has an attack power of 2000 points.

This is already an attack that can only be performed by the magicians of the Dou Tier.

You have to know that there are very few people who can reach the strength of the king-level magicians. There are only a few in a country at best. The ability to hit two thousand magic reaction index attacks in a short moment is enough to see that the opponent’s attack power is very high. Strong, and retreat decisively without a single blow, without the slightest sluggishness, it can be seen that the opponent is obviously a long-term plan, and it is definitely not a temporary intention.

“It’s hateful. These rebels are too rampant. I didn’t expect that Mr. Du Lei would encounter this kind of thing as soon as he arrived in Storm City. I am very sorry, but Mr. Du Lei, please rest assured, I assure you, you I will never encounter a similar situation again!” The ghost was shocked in a cold sweat at the attack just now.

This is also fortunate that Du Lei is a powerful magician, not an ordinary person.

Because the attack just now came too suddenly, even if there were no ghosts, there was no reaction. If it was just an ordinary person, then the attack just now has been properly shot and fell to the ground, and it is happening now in the extraordinary period in Rainstorm City. This vicious event made the ghost feel a little uneasy.

“It’s okay, I’m not good at it right now, there is nothing wrong with it? But Mr. Ghost, what happened to the rebels you just mentioned?” Du Lei shook his head gently, indicating that he was fine. An attack of the same level as just now could not constitute an effective threat to him at all.

However, it was only a day before he came to Rainstorm City. It was only yesterday that he decided to come to Rainstorm City with Spectre.

This also means that not many people know that he has come to this place. If he wants to ambush here in advance, the possibility of him is even slim. One is that he didn’t have any enemies with anyone, and the other is also the other party. There is not enough time to prepare.

So if the other party is directed at him, this is totally unreasonable logically, then the only explanation is that the other party is not directed at him. The reason for attacking him just now is probably because of some misunderstanding.

“Well… after the details are in the mansion, let’s talk about it slowly.” Ghost hesitated for a moment, and he beckoned Du Lei to leave the train station temporarily.

Because he is not sure whether the opponent will launch a new round of attacks, although he believes that with Du Lei’s strength, it is difficult for the opponent to hurt the latter, but this kind of thing happened just after arriving in Storm City, which inevitably made him face. Some can’t hold on to it.

Du Lei nodded and followed the Ghost to leave the train station. Soon they arrived at a mansion near the Duke’s mansion in Rainstorm City. According to the ghost, this mansion was used by Jester to receive guests, but that’s all. Shi Jester was not in the mansion.

Although it is late at night, the mansion is still brightly lit.

There are already a lot of face-saving people in Stormtrooper waiting to receive Du Lei here. Many of them are elderly people who are over seventy years old. With their age, plus the rainy night with heavy rain, their bodies are bones. It is absolutely difficult to withstand the wind and cold at night.

However, they are still serving as guests here. One aspect can be seen that this is the importance of Jester, the Duke of the North, who is the owner of Rainstorm City, to Du Lei. On the other hand, these people are very afraid of Jester. , Or else he wouldn’t come here with a handful of old bones.

Under the arrangement of the ghost, not only food and wine were prepared in the mansion, but there were also many dancers who moved and danced.

It seems that the previous attack at the train station occurred in the last century.

Du Lei didn’t like such occasions. When he was still serving as the inspector of the Snow Country, he issued an order prohibiting officials from all over the Snow Country from hosting large banquets to prevent extravagance and waste. However, in Storm City, he was a guest. , It is not the inspector general, so he can only remain silent.

At the banquet, Dendrobium interlaced and many people greeted Du Lei. They were all great nobles in the northern part of the Rain Country. Du Lei responded coldly. Two dancers accompany him with the wine, tenderness is like water, and he always keeps it. A distance.

The banquet lasted for more than an hour, and it was midnight. The ghost saw Du Lei not in high spirits and was a little tired, so he arranged for Du Lei to rest. Those elderly nobles were also considered loose. Sighed.

It was hard for them to let them stay with them on cold nights. They left the mansion one by one, and soon the noisy and lively mansion returned to deserted.

“The arrangement today is poor, please don’t mind Mr. Du Lei. Originally, Lord Jester was going to meet Mr. Du Lei in person, but there was a sudden incident and it was not very convenient. However, Mr. Du Lei still Please rest assured, the old lady will take you to see Master Jester early tomorrow morning. Master Jester will definitely be eager to meet you with Mr. Du Lei.” Ghost apologized for this.

After all, no matter who is the host, it is a shameful thing to be almost assassinated as soon as one’s guests get off the train.

“It’s okay, I took the liberty to come to Rainstorm City to harass, Mr. Ghost, please go and rest.” Du Lei didn’t care about it.

Soon under the arrangement of Spectre, a servant led Du Lei to his resting room.

The mansion covers a large area and is luxuriously decorated. The calfskin carpets under their feet are very valuable.

In the corridor, you can see a lot of picture frames hanging on the wall, and there are many scrolls made by famous artists.

Any one of these scrolls can be taken out and sold, which is enough for a family to eat and wear for a lifetime.

In addition to the scrolls, there are also half-person tall blue and white porcelain vases in the corners.

These porcelain bottles were all from the Eastern Continent and were transported to the Western Continent by merchant ships for sale.

The Western Continent cannot produce such exquisite bottles. Generally speaking, the bottle is a container for water. However, such exquisite porcelain bottles have become ornaments. Only large nobles with a solid family background can afford such a porcelain bottle. The price is comparable. The picture scroll is only high and not low.

If you accidentally smash the porcelain bottle, you can’t afford to pay for it for a lifetime without eating or drinking.

Of course that was only for ordinary servants. For a distinguished guest like Du Lei, even if all the porcelain bottles were broken, the ghost wouldn’t dare to say anything.

When Du Lei passed through the corridor, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have been to a more luxurious and luxurious place many years ago.

There were occasional flashbacks in his brain, but he couldn’t remember where he was and when he went there.

He slept in the Abyss of Winter for too long, and many of his memories were fragmentary, which made him feel very helpless.

“Mr. Du Lei, this is your room. Please go to bed earlier. If you have any needs, please let us know.” A deacon in a tuxedo led Du Lei to the door of the room. Speaking respectfully.

“Understood, I trouble you.” Du Lei nodded lightly, and the deacon opened the door for him, and after he bowed again, he retreated.

The room is very dark and there is no light. In this era, electricity is a newly emerging energy source, but electricity is not universal.

Because the raw material for electricity generation is magic stone, consuming electricity is equivalent to consuming the magic energy stored by the magic stone.

Although scientists are trying to use new technologies to replace magic stones with other energy sources to generate electricity, in order to reduce cost.

But for now, no better substitute has been found.

Electricity is not universal, it does not mean that there is no, at least this mansion, as one of the many industries of the North Duke Jester, is definitely not so awkward.

After all, when I was in the banquet hall before, the lights were bright and magnificent.

Du Lei hesitated a little, but he still passed to the bed. He was not too unfamiliar with life in the dark.

Being in a frozen state for a long time, this makes his senses very keen, even in the darkness, he can accurately find the target.

But when he approached the bed, a dim table lamp suddenly turned on, which made Du Lei stunned.

Because the desk lamp was not turned on spontaneously, it was turned on by another person, to be precise, it was a woman.

Under the dim orange light, you can see a graceful woman curled up on the bed. She looks less than twenty years old. She covered most of her body with a quilt. She looked a little scared and her eyes flickered. , Somewhat apprehensive.

“I’m very sorry, I don’t know anyone here, I went wrong.” Du Lei immediately turned around and tried to exit the room.

“Master Du Lei…” The other party called out his name timidly.

“Do you know me?” Du Lei frowned. He didn’t remember where he had seen this person.

“Master Sandro told me your name.” She whispered.

“Sandro?” Du Lei had never heard of the name either.

“It’s the housekeeper here. It should have been Lord Sandro who brought you here, Lord Du Lei.” She explained.

“Sandro…is it him? But what did he bring me here?”

After Du Lei said this, it became clear that Sandro was the gentle deacon just now.

“Of course it was for Master Du Lei to take a good rest, and I was told to take care of you, Master Du Lei.” She lowered her head and said in a low voice.

“It’s simply inexplicable!” Du Lei sneered at Sandro’s “kind arrangement”.

He turned his head and planned to leave here.

When he served as inspector-general in the Snow Country, it was not that there were no aristocrats who were distracted.

However, all of these made him reject all of them. The eight years of freezing, what he lost, cannot be made up for by these side sects.

“Master Du Lei, please wait!” She stopped Du Lei.

In the dim light, she still wrapped her chest in a velvet blanket, her cheeks flushed slightly.

“What else?” Du Lei asked coldly with his back to her.

“Master Du Lei… please don’t leave…” she said, biting her lip.

“what?”

“If you leave, I will be punished by Master Sandro. Not only will my family suffer, but… the next time he sends me out again, I’m afraid…” Her voice was very small, but she still He gritted his teeth and said.

It is not easy for her to say this.

“I’m afraid of what?” Du Lei frowned.

“I’m afraid that next time I send me out, I won’t meet someone as gentle as you, Master Du Lei…” She lowered her head and said.

This was a very difficult decision for her. She had already realized before Du Lei entered the room.

In fact, for her, it doesn’t matter who comes, it makes no difference.

Only when the young man turned around, she suddenly realized that this person seemed to be different from those she had seen.

She subconsciously wanted to grab something, and didn’t want it to slip away in front of her eyes…
