Luo De turned the bedroom upside down, then carefully searched the library and the parlor but found no information.
Without any hesitation, Luo De headed straight for Melos's laboratory with Vivian.
The laboratory's layout was the same: a circle of test benches with shelves against the walls.
The difference was that in the center of Melos's laboratory stood a large black cauldron with a diameter of about one meter.
The surface of the cauldron was covered with deep purple runes, and it stood on a metal cup foot like a goblet, inlaid with some extraordinary gemstones.
On top of the cauldron was a hemispherical lid also etched with runes, surrounded by a circle of metal spikes that looked ferocious and terrifying.
It seemed like some kind of alchemical apparatus.
Luo De had no time to bother with it and began searching the laboratory thoroughly.
A lot of things in Melos's laboratory hadn't been taken away; the shelves were filled with bottles and jars containing various liquids.
