Chapter 169 Wishes Fulfilled (Please Subscribe!!!)

Although the warehouse was not small, it was quickly searched by Connor under his mental scan.

Silver dollars!

A huge amount of gleaming silver dollars!

Fifty percent of the items stored in this warehouse are Persis silver dollars, and all of them are in cash. Connor conservatively estimates that there are at least a million of them! Persis silver dollars are the legal tender of the Kingdom of Persis, a powerful neighbor of the Kaman Empire.

At the current official exchange rate, one Persian silver coin is equivalent to two Kaman Empire shillings! This warehouse full of silver coins is equivalent to 10 gold pounds! That's enough to start a small war!

Besides these silver dollars, what was stored in the remaining fifty percent of the warehouse's storage space also surprised Connor!

Numerous herbs and medicinal potions filled the remaining space in the warehouse. Although Connor didn't understand pharmacology, he still grasped basic pharmacology and common sense! These herbs and potions, while diverse in type, had largely similar uses, primarily for stopping bleeding and relieving pain!

After searching the warehouse again, Connor frowned. The large quantity of Persis silver dollars, along with hemostatic and analgesic herbs and potions, in the warehouse was clearly unusual for Mr. Emery, a wealthy merchant from Carmen. It could not possibly be a normal business transaction.

The medicines stored in the warehouse are very mature in both Persis and the Kaman market. Unless there is a war, their value is so high that it is impossible to make too much money. Moreover, the banking industry is so developed now that even if you go to Persis to do business, you can just bring a bank draft. There is no need to accumulate so many Persis silver dollars in cash!

However, Connor's frown wasn't because of that. Emery's desire to go to heaven was none of Connor's business. What Connor truly cared about was that he hadn't found the alchemy furnace he was looking for in this warehouse!

After a moment's thought, Connor concluded that there were only two possibilities: either there was a mechanism in the warehouse that he hadn't discovered, or the alchemy furnace was hidden somewhere else entirely.

Taking a deep breath, Connor calmly observed the warehouse's layout. The facilities were basically the same as any other warehouse, except for some fire safety equipment and the shipping containers. If there was any difference, it was that the containers were arranged somewhat haphazardly…

Disorganized...

Thinking of this word, Connor subconsciously narrowed his eyes. He felt as if he had grasped some clue. The arrangement of the containers in this warehouse was somewhat similar to a magic circle he had seen in a certain book.

Reyes Alchemy, the Little Maze!

After pondering for a full five minutes, a complex look flashed in Connor's eyes. He had found his answer!

This answer is not simply about what kind of magic array the warehouse containers are set up with; it's that he confirmed Mr. Emery's connection to the Secret Society and Reyes!

The reason why "Reyes Alchemy" was named after Reyes is that much of the knowledge in this alchemical book is the result of Reyes' own experiments, innovations, and summaries! And this small maze is also part of Reyes's innovative achievements, which are recorded in the book "Reyes Alchemy".

Without a doubt, since this place uses Reyes's unique Shadow Array, it would be utterly foolish to say that it has nothing to do with Reyes.

Without time to think too much, Connor recalled the details of the small illusion array from his memory. He needed to finish this quickly. Since there was a small illusion array of Reyes in this place, it indirectly meant that the familiar feeling Connor felt when he entered the inner courtyard might be another magic array created by Reyes.

Connor's eyes gleamed, and with a wave of his arm, gusts of wind shot out, causing the containers in the warehouse to begin moving as he had expected.

The main purpose of Reyes's unique illusion array is to conceal its presence. Without learning Reyes's magic array techniques, it would be difficult for anyone below the level of a formal wizard to detect any clues.

However, for Connor, a "student" of Professor Reyes of the Secret Society, breaking through this small illusion array was not difficult!

As Kang An moved the warehouse containers, an entrance that could only be passed through by one person silently appeared on the warehouse's cement floor!

With a relieved smile on his lips, Connor walked through the entrance and went down for a while. He was surprised to find himself in a secret room. As Connor arrived, several kerosene lamps immediately lit up the previously dark secret room, making the entire room brightly lit!

The secret room wasn't large, only about 20 square meters, but it contained several large cabinets filled with treasures. Connor, upon entering the room, was immediately drawn to the alchemy furnace on the central cabinet.

That's right! Just by observing its appearance, Connor discovered that this alchemy furnace was exactly what he was looking for!

Connor was overjoyed to have what he wanted so close at hand, but he did not immediately put the alchemy furnace into his spatial ring. Instead, he carefully scanned the secret room.

Upon closer inspection, Connor's gaze immediately fell upon the two demonized puppets and the dozen or so bottles of potions displayed in the cabinet!

After observing them carefully for a while, Connor revealed a mocking smile, then strode up to the two puppet figures. These two puppets were the same size as normal humans, and they also emitted faint magical fluctuations. They looked like two ordinary demonized puppets.

Walking up to the two demonized puppets, Connor cast a spell that entered their bodies. The puppets immediately glowed with a vibrant green light. Seeing this, Connor nodded in satisfaction and then confidently placed the alchemy furnace from the cabinet into his spatial ring.

Those two seemingly ordinary demonic puppets were actually quite extraordinary; they were a branch of demonic puppets—corpse puppets! Unlike ordinary demonic puppets, which were made using alchemical materials, corpse puppets were made from the corpses of wizards. These two corpse puppets were actually a trap. If Connor hadn't noticed them and had gone straight for the alchemical furnace, he would have been ambushed by them!

After taking the alchemy furnace, Connor did not leave immediately. Instead, he turned his attention to the dozen or so bottles of potions on the other side of the cabinet. He pondered for a few seconds, then reached out and grabbed a bottle of potion from the cabinet, putting it into his spatial ring. Then, Connor took out another bottle of potion from his own spatial ring and placed it back on the cabinet.
