Although the warehouse wasn't small, Connor quickly searched through it with his mental power.
Silver coins!
Large amounts of shiny silver coins!
Fifty percent of the items stored in the warehouse were Bossi silver coins, and they were all cash. Connor estimated that there were at least a million silver coins in the warehouse! Bossi silver coins were the legal currency of the Kaman Empire's powerful neighbor, the Bossi Kingdom.
According to the current official exchange rate, one Bossi silver coin was equivalent to two shillings in the Kaman Empire! The silver coins in the warehouse were equivalent to 100,000 gold pounds! This amount of money was enough to start a small scale war!
Other than the silver coins, the items stored in the remaining fifty percent of the warehouse also surprised Connor!
Large amounts of herbs and medicines took up the remaining space in the warehouse. Although Connor didn't know much about pharmaceutics, he still knew the basic principles of pharmacology and common sense! Although there were many types of herbs and medicines, their uses were mostly the same. Basically, they were all used to stop bleeding and relieve pain!
After searching the warehouse carefully, Connor couldn't help but frown. There were so many herbs and medicines in the warehouse. As a wealthy merchant in Kaman Empire, it was obviously unusual for Mr. Emory to possess such items. It couldn't be a normal business practice.
The medicines stored in the warehouse were very mature in both Bossi and Kaman markets. Unless there was a war, their value was so high that it was impossible to make a lot of money. Moreover, the banking industry was so developed now. Even if one went to Bossi to do business, one only needed to bring a bank draft. There was no need to accumulate so many Bossi silver coins!
However, this wasn't the reason Connor frowned. Emory wanted to go to heaven, and it had nothing to do with Connor. What Connor really cared about was that he didn't find the alchemy furnace he wanted in the warehouse!
After thinking for a while, Connor felt that there were only two possibilities. Either there was a mechanism in the warehouse that he didn't discover, or the alchemy furnace was hidden somewhere else.
After taking a deep breath, Connor calmly observed the furnishings in the warehouse. The facilities in the warehouse were basically the same as those in normal warehouses. Other than some fire protection facilities, there were only containers for storing items. If there was a difference, it would be that the containers in the warehouse were slightly messy …
What a mess …
With that in mind, Connor narrowed his eyes subconsciously. He felt like he had found a clue. The arrangement of the containers in the warehouse was similar to a magic circle he had seen in a book.
[Reyes' Alchemy], Lesser Bewildering Array!
After pondering for a full five minutes, Connor's eyes flashed with a complicated look. He got the answer!
The answer was not as simple as what kind of magic circle the containers in the warehouse were set up with. It was also because he was sure that Mr. Emmery was related to the secret society and Reyes!
"Reyes' Alchemy" was named by Reyes himself because a lot of the knowledge in this alchemy book was the result of Reyes' own experiments, innovations, and summaries! This Small Illusion Array was one of Reyes's innovations and was recorded in the book "Reyes's Alchemy".
Without a doubt, since this place used Reyes' Lesser Bewildering Array, it would be a lie to say that it had nothing to do with Reyes.
Without thinking too much, Connor recalled the contents of the Lesser Bewildering Array in his memory. He had to end this quickly. Since this place had Reyes' Lesser Bewildering Array, it indirectly meant that the familiar smell that Connor felt when he entered the inner courtyard might be another magic circle created by Reyes.
Connor's eyes lit up. He waved his arm, and a gust of wind blew out. The containers in the warehouse immediately began to move as he expected.
The Minor Illusion Formation that Reyes had created was mainly used to deceive others. Those below the level of an official Adept would find it hard to notice anything amiss with it if they hadn't learned Reyes' knowledge of formations.
However, for Connor, the "student" of Reyes, the Secret Society's professor, breaking this Lesser Bewildering Array was not difficult.
Following the movement of the containers in the warehouse, an entrance that only one person could pass through silently appeared on the cement floor of the warehouse.
With a gratified smile on his face, Connor walked through the entrance. After walking down for a while, he was surprised to find himself in a secret room. Following Connor's arrival, the originally pitch-black Secret Society immediately lit up with several kerosene lamps, making the entire secret room brightly lit.
This secret room was not big, only about twenty square meters. However, there were several large cabinets in this secret room that contained many treasures. When Connor walked into the secret room, he was immediately attracted by the alchemy furnace on top of the cabinet in the middle.
That's right! Just by observing the exterior, Connor discovered that this alchemy furnace was what he was looking for!
Of course, Connor was very thrilled. However, he didn't teleport the alchemy furnace into his space-teleportation finger ring at once; instead, he glanced over this secret room very meticulously.
At the sight of this, Connor focused on the two demonized puppets and over ten vials of medicament in the cabinet!
After observing them carefully for a short while, Connor revealed a sarcastic smile. Closely after that, he strode towards the two demonized puppets. The two demonized puppets were as large as average humans. They also radiated a faint magical wave. They looked like two common demonized puppets.
After walking to the front of the two demonized puppets, Connor injected a magic incantation into the two demonized puppets. At once, the two demonized puppets radiated green light. Seeing this, Connor nodded satisfactorily. After that, he put the alchemy furnace into his space-teleportation finger ring.
The two demonized puppets were actually not common. They were a branch of demonized puppets — — corpse puppets! Being different from common demonized puppets which were made of alchemy materials, corpse puppets were made of the corpses of wizards. The two corpse puppets were actually a trap. If Connor didn't discover them and directly took the alchemy furnace, he would have been screwed by them for sure!
After taking the alchemy furnace, Connor didn't leave at once; instead, he moved his attention to over ten vials of medicament on the other cabinet. After thinking for a few seconds, he grabbed a vial of medicament from the cabinet and put it into his space-teleportation finger ring. After that, Connor took out another vial of medicament from his space-teleportation finger ring and put it on the cabinet.
