In fact, this thing did not stump Huai Shi for long at all.
There was no need for the Hand of Confinement that was now integrated with the casting furnace.
With Huai Shi's attainments in metals, he had already figured out the structure of the internal alchemy array through the box. Then, he just found a few places, entered the source substance a few times, and tried the password to open it automatically.
The box was just to verify Huai Shi's identity.
— The person who opened it must be an alchemist proficient in metals.
But when the box shrank and disintegrated inch by inch, there was nothing inside.
There was only a symbol in the core …
That was the emblem of the Helios workshop!
Now, as the complex structure of the box continued to change and shrink, in the end, it actually overlapped into a fist-sized iron ball and fell into Huai Shi's hand.
Through the fine hollow texture on the surface, he could feel the source substance moving in the complex array inside. Then, dozens of layers of the core moved, and in the end, it formed a map that he had never seen before.
At that moment, the Rope of Sorrows sent out a profound sound.
It made Huai Shi freeze in place.
According to the agreement from a long time ago.
The alchemy workshop, the Helios chariot, called out to the alchemist who had made a contract with it.
Marcus did not come on behalf of Rome at all, but this notice was passed on by the Mercury Organization on behalf of him …
Now, as the iron ball slowly unfolded, there was a faint flame in it.
The Helios workshop was waiting for Huai Shi's response.
The simplest way was to accept or refuse.
Huai Shi fell into silence.
In the long silence, he raised his head and stared at the city behind him, the area that was gradually growing and flourishing.
Everything had changed too quickly.
In just a few years, he had changed from a wandering Ascendant to a pivotal role in the entire Yingzhou. He was no longer the young man who had no choice.
He had the power to say no, and could even repay the help from Helios a hundred times over. Moreover, when he signed the contract, he did not know the contents of it.
He could have ignored this call.
No one could criticize Huai Shi's handling of this matter.
But for some reason, the instant he received this invitation, what emerged in his heart was not resistance … Instead, it was indescribable joy.
Even the sea breeze blowing from afar seemed to have become fragrant.
A new adventure called to him.
He chuckled softly.
He no longer hesitated.
.
.
"Have you decided?"
Behind the screen, Russell scratched his head. "Helios is not a peaceful place. Recently, it seems to be in a lot of trouble. Otherwise, the invitation letter would not have been delivered by the Roman genealogy. If you want to go out and relax, there are more and better choices. Look, isn't Shambhala a picturesque place? "
Huai Shi laughed. "I feel like I'll be in trouble no matter where I go. Is there a difference between Shambhala and Helios?"
"Since you've decided, I won't object." Russell pinched his chin. "Thinking about it, I'm quite surprised that you've been able to stay in Danbo for so long. In the past, you'd always leave when you caused trouble. This time, you've cleaned up your own mess. I think you've learned your lesson. "
Huai Shi could not help but roll his eyes.
"Don't pretend to be obedient after taking advantage of me, okay?" He retorted. "I've been a tool for so long. Can you stop thinking about making arrangements for me?"
"Look at what you're saying. This is a teacher's love for his student! You're hurting my heart. "
Russell laughed strangely and asked, "How's your body? It's not wise to go out in this state. "
"You can't go into the abyss just to fix a car, right?"
Huai Shi sighed and scratched his head. "It's okay. I'll bring Beelzebub. I still have Supreme anyway. At least I can run away if things go wrong."
After getting used to his extremely strange luck, he had accepted the fact that something would definitely happen whenever he went out.
It was impossible for him not to be prepared.
After personally witnessing the duel between Elder Luo and the Sword Saint, his own development of 'Resonance' had reached a whole new level. Resonance may not be the most destructive of Supreme, but it was definitely the most versatile type.
He had not been sitting by the beach these days to fish for fun.
Instead, he had seized the time to consolidate the experience and understanding he had gained from that battle.
In the end, what he had gained was not the scene that Marcus had seen, but a more subtle perception.
The scale of the Ocean Rumble seemed terrifying, but it was actually the result of more than two hours of channeling by the beach. Apart from training his control, it did not have any actual combat value.
His opponent would not let him channel for two hours and then stand still and let him stuff the Ocean Rumble into his stomach.
Until now, Huai Shi could only say that his Supreme was just a beginner. He did not dare to say how good it was, but at least he had a chance to escape when facing those unreasonable opponents in the past.
Running fast was better than anything else these days.
"Really? Let's hope you can escape … "
Russell's smile became strange. Without waiting for Huai Shi to ask again, he suddenly snapped his fingers. "Speaking of which, it's about time."
"What time?"
"The time to place the order." Russell lowered his head and looked at his watch. "It should be now."
Before he finished his words, there was a knock on the door.
After pushing open the door, he saw a familiar smiling face with a camera on his shoulder.
"Hello, yesterday's delivery."
The delivery man introduced himself and then asked directly, "Name?"
"…"
Huai Shi turned around and looked at the screen expressionlessly. Russell had already picked up the teacup and pointed at him with his mouth. Hurry up and start your performance. I've been waiting for this!
Huai Shi closed his eyes and pointed at the corridor outside the door. "Get out …"
"Don't, brother. This is a special request from the customer … Aren't we afraid of sending it to the wrong person?" The delivery man squeezed out a smile from the gap of the door. "Please cooperate. Can't you just cooperate?"
"Cooperate my ass! I didn't buy anything. Get out! "
"It's a package from the Abyss Archaeological Team! A Mr. Lucian sent it to you, and he specially ordered it for express delivery. "The courier raised the package and shamelessly squeezed his way in." Brother, I'm 100% confident that my customers will give me good reviews. Just treat it as a favor and help me out. Let's go through the process … "
"…" The corner of Huai Shi's eyes began to twitch.
After a series of exhausting traditional performances, Huai Shi finally got her hands on the long metal box. She found that it was quite heavy inside. There were actually several layers of it, all of which were of the highest standard of single-use containment containers.
Just the outer packaging alone was worth millions of dollars.
"What the hell?"
Huai Shi scratched his head, wondering what his brother had sent him.
"Isn't this quite fast?"
After drinking enough tea, Russell finally put down the teacup and explained, "When I asked for inventory, I found that there was no Stigmata Relic suitable for you, so I made an order with the archaeological team. I didn't expect Lucian to come personally. It seems that you have a good relationship with him."
"Huh?"
Huai Shi was stunned. He picked up the box in his hand and asked, "Stigmata Relic? This? "
"Yes, it's a precious item recovered by the archaeological team from the quiet area under the 22nd depth area. It's a fragment left behind by the Abyss Exploration Outpost of the Republic.
Over the years, the Dragon Summoning Flute has been searching day and night and finally found its trace. "
Russell waved his hand and said indifferently, "Open it and take a look, Huai Shi. It's yours."
Huai Shi reached out and opened the lock on the top, opening the outer layer of seal layer by layer.
In the end, after opening the last inner cover, he saw the incomplete creation sealed in the core.
It was like a rusty iron rod half the height of a person. The grayish-black color was not conspicuous. If one did not pay attention, it would be thrown away like garbage.
However, when Huai Shi clenched and pulled it out, it emitted a high-pitched sound.
A cracking sound burst out from under Huai Shi's feet. He subconsciously channeled the burst of pressure into his feet, causing the entire office building to suddenly shake.
The alarm was triggered, and an ear-piercing sound rang out.
Countless traces of rust faded in an instant, revealing the color of steel. Dark green waves faintly surrounded it, revealing the echo of the sea.
The inscriptions of the past had all disappeared, leaving only vague engravings to prove its identity.
At that moment, the Stigmata of the same lineage resonated and awakened the sleeping miracle. Xiangjun, who had been silent for a long time in hell, woke up, revealing a vague outline.
Sensing the divinity of Great Si Ming, it let out an unruly clang in Huai Shi's hand.
It almost broke free from his hand!
But soon, it found that it had nowhere to go. The power to break free quickly weakened, and in the end, it returned to its usual state.
Only the rusty shell revealed the wear and tear marks of the vicissitudes of life …
When Huai Shi took a closer look, he found the sharp crack at the front of the iron rod. It was actually a broken part of the weapon!
But Xiangjun's power was clearly unblemished, and even exceeded Huai Shi's imagination. That wild and fierce aura made one's scalp tingle. It was not like the gentle Xiangshui Lord, but more like a raging flood that wreaked havoc in the mortal world.
"… Passing Water Spear? It's really you. "
Russell stared at the crack and lowered his eyes, "Long time no see, Ying Fangzhou."
"Passing Water Spear? Was this originally a spear? "
Huai Shi carefully examined the weapon in her hand. She could feel the loneliness and viciousness within it. She could almost empathize with the weapon itself …
That indescribable remorse!
The pain entrusted to it felt like it was tearing his soul apart. He hated that the raging waters would never return, and that it would be difficult to return to the past.
It was too late.
Even if he searched all the iron in Jiuzhou, it would not be enough to make a mistake.
By the time he recovered from the intense headache, tears of blood had already flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
"Be careful, Huai Shi, don't go through other people's diaries …" Russell said, "This is the hatred of the old seniors."
This was a genuine relic of the Stigmata …
It was the crystallization of remorse left by the predecessor of the Road of Heaven's Inquisition, the former Lord of the Clouds, Ying Fangzhou.
