After sending the last guest, the Mizuho Castle finally returned to its former tranquility.

The dance party ended, and all the busyness came to an end.

Tonight, Xiu Yi was a little bit popular and met many young ladies from famous noble families.

However, it is still far from which one he likes.

For the Dardanelles family, the road to entering the upper class is long and difficult, and they can only go step by step. It is impossible to get something big in one go.

On the contrary, it was Raschel, who came uninvited and brought the Harden family with great dyingness.

what does that mean?

He still doubted Xiuyi.

When Xiu Yi thought of this, he couldn't help but have a headache.

How should I deal with this cautious, suspicious, and mysterious old fox?

"Still thinking about Raschel?"

In front of the castle gate, the intelligent Christine saw at a glance what Xiuyi was thinking about.

Xiuyi smiled bitterly: "I found that I underestimated him a little. I was thinking about how to deal with this guy."

Barkler said in a buzzing voice: "I don't think you need to think too much about this issue. Xiuyi, you are too used to overcoming your opponent. This may be related to your long-term survival experience on Purgatory Island, so that when facing the enemy, you always treat yourself with the weak side's thinking habits. But you have forgotten one thing, you are no longer the little servant you used to. You are already a strong man."

Strong man? Xiu Yi is already a strong man?

"Yes." Barkler said with certainty: "No matter what method is used, it is a good method to defeat your opponent. You kill two Sky Warriors in one battle, which is enough to prove your strength. So when you consider problems many times, you might as well consider it from a different perspective. You are a little arrogant when dealing with people like Rasher, why do you have to care about the length of time with him? If you want to play games, I don't object. But if you play too much, it will cause trouble. Rasher is approaching you. If you continue like this, you will sooner or later, and all your efforts will be in vain. Now is not the past, and the Dardanelles family is heading for success. If you don't take decisive measures to avoid losses, then the consequences... you know what it should be."

Xiu Yi was shocked: "You mean..."

"There is the oldest and most effective method to solve the opponent. It can be used on Raschel, or on the Earl of Weston. The quick knife... can cut the mess." Barkler said gloomyly.

Xiu Yi was silent.

He thought for a while before nodding, "You're right, Brian, I'm too relaxed on this issue. So do what you said and find a suitable time and place. Shio Iglare will appear in time. Kill Rasher and kill Weston."

Barkler smiled with satisfaction: "This is the best thing about you, you can always draw good opinions."

"Thank you, Brian."

"You are welcome."

Several people casually talked about the action plan behind. Christine was a non-military faction and was not interested in this aspect, so she went back to her room early. Barkler decided to send a few people first to understand the life and action rules of the target, and then Xiu Yi started with his original appearance.

After discussing this, Barkler also returned to his residence.

Xiu Yi stood alone in front of the castle gate, looking at the tall castle, feeling a little excited.

He once again remembered the hard years he had ever been.

He shook his head gently and threw away all the bad memories. When he was about to go back to the room, he swept something out of the corner of his eyes.

Xiu Yi was shocked.

Two four-winged Toothed Beast statues in front of the castle gate were quietly sitting there, motionless. But just as Xiu Yi tried to enter the castle just now, he found a strange aura of magic overflowing from one of the statues.

How can a stone statue have magic fluctuations?

The only answer is...alchemy.

Xiu Yi turned around like a whirlwind and came to the statue.

At this time, the magic fluctuations have disappeared.

Xiu Yi circled around the statue, and could not find any source of magic power, no trace of the existence of any mechanism, and no magic circle scale existed.

But Xiu Yi knew that the reprint of this book just now was not an illusion.

The only explanation is that the magic circle is inside the statue.

But if the statue cannot be destroyed, how can we contact the magic array? Without touching the core of the magic array, it is impossible to crack it.

Also, what was the magic fluctuation just now? It could not appear suddenly for no reason.

Everything has a reason. Why does one of the two statues have abnormalities while the other one is fine?

Xiu Yi thought repeatedly.

He suddenly remembered that wasn't this statue the one he used to use when he duel with Bateson?

Could it be that the previous fight was triggered by accident?

Xiu Yi mobilized all his brain power and desperately recalled the scene of himself fighting with Bateson. His brain was like a fully activated motor, desperately meeting every detail. From the time Bateson launched an attack on him and finally defeated, Bateson never dared to destroy the statue.

When Bateson fell from the statue in his memory, Shuyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Bateson was injured, and I saw him bleeding, although it was just a scratch." Xiuyi almost screamed. Then he stared at the statue and looked carefully: "But why is there no blood on the statue? I saw with my own eyes that some drops of blood fell on it."

He searched carefully and found that although it was dark, the light was enough for Xiu Yi, who had practiced a level five warrior.

He was very sure that there was no trace of blood on the statue.

Xiu Yi did not hesitate anymore, stretched out his arm and scratched it on it casually. The sharp fighting spirit cut through the unprotected skin, and blood flowed on the statue.

This time, Shuyi clearly saw that after the blood fell on the statue, it was still on it at first.

But gradually, the color became dimmer.

After about one hour, the bloodstains completely disappeared, and at the same time, a magic wave came from the statue again.

This time, the magic fluctuations were more obvious than before.

"So that's what it is..." Xiu Yi understood a little.

Xiu Yi, who had read all over the library, knew that in the lost alchemy a long time ago, there was a magic array called the Blood Sacrifice Formation.

The Blood Sacrifice Array does not use traditional energy crystals as the source of power, but uses blood as the core of power. This is a bit like a blood-based spell and requires sacrifice of blood to be used.

Xiu Yi was almost certain that this magic array hidden in the statue must be a blood sacrifice array. It is precisely because of this that the vision just now appeared. For the blood sacrifice array, blood is the source of energy, and the blood sacrifice array will instinctively absorb blood, so the blood falling on the statue will gradually be absorbed.

What Xiu Yi couldn't understand was how Electra put this magic circle into the statue. And even the Blood Sacrifice magic circle could not support hundreds of years of consumption. Therefore, Electra must have other auxiliary arrangements.

But no matter what, the secret discovery of this statue finally brought a glimmer of hope to Xiuyi's research on this castle.

People are not afraid of the difficult future, they are afraid of no direction under their feet.

No matter how difficult the road is, as long as there is a direction, it can always be completed. Xiu Yi has made up his mind to crack the secret of the statue before entering the tower. If you can't even do this, entering the tower will only be a death-stop.

So how can we open this statue that cannot be attacked and break the blood sacrifice array?

Xiuyi fell into deep thought.

The days that followed seemed monotonous and dull.

Xiu Yi dived into his understanding and investigation of the blood sacrifice array.

The plan to kill Raschel, who was entrusted with this statue, was temporarily delayed. Of course, this was also related to Raschel's own caution. Since the old guy attended the dance, he began to be inconsistent. Unless it was office hours, even Chaklay did not know where he was.

During this period, the Dardanelles family successfully met some people at the dance party, so they occasionally received invitations from some nobles. The main invitation was Cisser Dardanelles, and the organizers were mostly down-and-out little nobles.

Although the Dardanelles family looks quite rich and the little heir looks smart and handsome, the nature of the nouveau riche is still looked down upon by most wealthy families.

After the Bateson failed duel, the Barneste family had no movement, but no one knew when the trouble would come.

However, Dodge Trading, Bavarian Family and San Marino Trading have been visiting Xiuyi frequently during this period. Their main purpose was the industrialization of alchemy raised by Xiuyi at the last dance. To complete this initiative, there are alchemy products that meet the requirements and alchemy that most ordinary people can learn and apply. Although Xiuyi has been studying the blood sacrifice array, he still tried his best to meet these business people.

Xiu Yi took out several alchemy products he had made earlier, explained the specific production methods to everyone, and did it once in front of everyone's interview. After reading it, several business leaders discussed it and believed that there is indeed a basis for mass production. Moreover, this product does not have high requirements for materials and does not use rare materials.

So they decided to invest a small amount of money first, find a piece of land in Winlington, build a large alchemy product production base, and then recruit some workers, which was under the responsibility of Xiu Yi. Xiu Yi held technology and then everyone contributed together to calculate the shareholding ratio according to capital.

This division is quite good for Xiu Yi. After all, the technology he has produced is not a top-level alchemy product. It is just a new quantifiable processing method to make some alchemy products that cannot be produced on a large scale, but are quite practical. This is like Edison inventing electric lights and Ford inventing assembly lines. For the heads of various business banks, assembly line technology is not responsible, but the person who invented the assembly line is undoubtedly capable and potential, and is worth investing. Moreover, Xiu Yiglare is both an excellent businessman and an excellent alchemist. Maybe he can accomplish the two things of inventing new products and popularizing new products at the same time.

As long as there is one such product, the business will be very prosperous.
