The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 548: Shrine Laboratory

As the Patriarch finished speaking, a black-robed figure suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain, which was originally empty.

"The Patriarch of the Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood, I didn't expect that he would attract a big shot like you."

Richard looked at the two figures, one tall and one short, in front of him with interest. Others might not be able to see it, but as an alchemist wizard, Richard could tell at a glance that the big goblin next to the patriarch was something like a synthetic beast.

But surprisingly, without a soul stuffed into it, the synthetic goblin seems to have obvious intelligence.

This is so unusual.

Even with Richard's knowledge, he had never heard of this kind of synthetic beast technology.

Seeing Richard looking at his servant, the Patriarch was surprised. Although he didn't know what Richard was thinking, his intuition told him that his servant's secret was seen through by the albino nobleman in front of him.

"Your Excellency is very interested in my attendant." The Patriarch said calmly.

"I've never heard of this technology before, which allows a synthetic beast to have advanced intelligence without using its soul. But before we discuss the technology, let's talk business first."

Richard flashed to the side of the Patriarch, and the invisible pressure of the Lord of the World pressed down on the Patriarch like a mountain.

"I'm curious, how did you know I was looking for the Shrine?"

Richard's pressure made the Patriarch's face change slightly, and the rhetoric he had prepared was useless at this moment.

He knew too well what this pressure represented. The nobleman in front of him had already broken through the boundaries of mortals. In the face of such strength, all the methods he had prepared before were useless.

The Patriarch smiled bitterly in his heart.

"I met an important person."

He bowed slightly to Richard, then slowly said, "Your movements were not concealed at all. It is obvious that you are heading straight for the Golden Summit. The only place on the Golden Summit that can attract a strong man like you is the legendary Divine Palace."

Richard nodded slightly. He really had no scruples in his actions this time, so it was normal for him to be noticed.

Thinking of the identity of the old goblin in front of him, Richard changed the subject and asked, "You are the Patriarch of the Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood. I think you should have done some research on this temple. After all, the body given by God is a very powerful thing for a researcher who studies flesh and blood."

"Indeed, there has been some research," the Patriarch replied. "The Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood has been searching for the Temple of God, trying to find the secret of how the Lord of Perfection created the body bestowed by God."

"So have you found it?" Richard asked a little anxiously.

The Patriarch shook his head: "Found it, and also not found it."

The Patriarch's answer left Richard confused. What did it mean to find it and yet not find it?

"We found the gate of the temple," the Patriarch explained, "but the temple won't let us in. There is a wisdom and a consciousness in the temple. We don't know if it is the creation of the Lord of Perfection, but this consciousness controls the gate of the temple.

We don't have the key and don't meet the requirements, so we have been kept out for thousands of years.

This is why I came here this time."

The Patriarch looked at Richard, his voice full of longing.

"Have you brought the key, sir?"

"……key?"

To be honest, Richard never thought about the key.

Do you need a key to enter the forerunner ruins?
But think about it, these ruins he saw now were important facilities of the forerunners in ancient times. It is impossible for these facilities to be open to the public and allow people to enter and exit at will.

Security measures are essential.

Richard's confused look immediately extinguished the Patriarch's hope. Without the key, they would never be able to enter the temple in their lifetime.

"Your Excellency, if you don't have the key, don't even think about entering the palace." The Patriarch replied with a hint of disappointment, "The palace's defenses are far beyond our imagination. Even if we send the two God Kings to attack, they can't force their way in.

Although you are powerful, becoming a God King will definitely cause a lot of trouble. Unless you are an alien, it is impossible for you to be stronger than a God King."

The Patriarch's words made Richard look a little strange. Although the reasoning process was a little wrong, the result was actually right.

However, combat power is combat power. Entering the Forerunner ruins does not rely solely on brute force.

"You said that there is a consciousness in the shrine, and this consciousness controls the gate of the shrine, right?"

The Patriarch nodded: "That's right."

Richard asked again: "What is it called? Is it the master controller?"

The Patriarch showed a trace of surprise on his face: "How did you know this title? Is there any record of this consciousness in your family's records?"

Richard didn't answer, but a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Where is this temple? I want to go and take a look."

Noticing the change in Richard's expression, a glimmer of hope ignited in the Patriarch's heart.

"In the Daru Plateau. According to our research, in ancient times, the Daru Plateau was the highest point in the world."

After hearing the location, Richard took out the map from his pocket and found the so-called Daru Highlands. "It's in the south?" Richard couldn't help but complain.

The Patriarch asked carefully, "What do you remember, Your Excellency? This shrine..."

Before the Patriarch finished his question, Richard waved his sleeves and an invisible force field enveloped him and his attendants. Then, he saw an astonishing scene.

Richard grabbed them and jumped hundreds of meters from the top of the mountain, then fell freely from the top of the mountain.

Twelve thousand meters, eleven thousand meters... The howling wind sounded like a ghost in the ears of the Patriarch. Although the Patriarch was knowledgeable, his heart was still pounding during this ropeless bungee jumping.

Although he would not be killed if he fell freely from an altitude of 12,000 meters due to air resistance, the instinct of life still made his body tremble slightly.

The original goblins do not have the ability to survive falling from high altitudes.

After an unknown amount of time, the Patriarch's falling body suddenly stopped. He opened his eyes and saw that he and his attendants were now suspended in the air.

They were following Richard, flying rapidly towards the Daru Highlands.

"You are not a noble, are you?" the Patriarch shouted at Richard.

As he fell, his shriveled body became full again and his old body became younger.

This is the true appearance of the Patriarch. As the Patriarch of the Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood, how could he be an old man who looks like he can't even eat?

Richard turned around and said, "I never said I was a hobgoblin."

The Patriarch looked at the man flying rapidly in front of him, and his heart was suddenly filled with anticipation.

The Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood spent five thousand years searching for the Palace of God, and was trapped in front of the Palace of God for another five thousand years. All the Patriarchs of the Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood wanted to enter the Palace of God.

Now, their long-cherished wish may be fulfilled.

……

Daru Plateau is located in the southernmost part of the Flesh and Blood Royal Court. On this plateau, the never-ending strong wind blows over large areas of wind blade grass. Every time it blows, the wind blade grass shoots out countless wind blades as thin as needles.

Under the influence of the strong wind, these wind blades were like an invisible meat grinder. When ordinary goblins were blown by the wind, they would turn into blood mist and bone fragments.

"It's right here."

Following the Patriarch's confirmation, Richard descended from the sky with the Patriarch and landed on the endless green plateau.

The wind blades of the wind blade grass were useless to Richard. The wind blades were strong enough to leave marks on steel, but they could not even cut Richard's hair when they blew into the mountains. However, these wind blades could help Richard identify the distorted space.

Under the guidance of the wind blade, Li Zhao found a hidden space rift.

This space crack is not big, only about one meter long. On this endless plateau, without Richard's perception, it would take countless years to find this space crack.

"It's really hard for you to find such a hidden place."

The Patriarch watched Richard find the crack easily and exclaimed, "We have been searching for this door for five thousand years, but it only took you five seconds."

“No, no, no,” Richard shook his head, “Without your five thousand years of searching, it would have taken me at least several decades to find this entrance.”

As he spoke, Richard opened the space rift.

The hidden crack was transformed into a round black entrance under the infusion of magic power. But at this moment, this entrance was blocked by an invisible barrier of rules. If you want to pass through the entrance, you must pass through this barrier.

"H7521 natives, what have you found?"

A slightly human voice came from the black cave. From the meaning of the voice, it seemed that the Church of the Lord of Flesh and Blood must have made many attempts to enter before.

The Patriarch heard the voice and introduced it to Richard: "This is the Master Controller, but we are used to calling it the Guardian Spirit."

Richard looked at the dark entrance and then opened the space rift. In the shocked eyes of the Patriarch, Richard brought out a beautiful creature from the secret realm that he thought was almost a work of art.

"Hogg, you try it."

The person Richard pulled out from the secret realm was Hogg, the descendant of the Dragon King.

After these years of training, Hogg's strength has reached level three. On his three slender necks, there are three majestic yet beautiful dragon heads.

Hogg came to the entrance and looked at it with some confusion. But before she could do anything, a surprised voice sounded in her ears.

"A descendant of a dragon king! So there are still giant dragons in this world?"

Under Hogg's confused gaze, the rule barrier that prevented others from entering immediately disappeared, and an illusory figure with the appearance of a hobgoblin walked out of the cave, bowed politely to Hogg and said:
"Dear heir of the Dragon King, welcome to the World God's Palace Laboratory No. H7521. I am the main controller Lan. May I ask if you have any followers with you?"

As he spoke, Lan turned his gaze towards Richard. In his investigation, he found that this creature also had dragon blood in its body.

"Yes, it is my follower." Hogg confirmed.

Her experience in the Astral Fortress had given her an idea of ​​what the current situation was.

Lan bowed slightly to Richard and said, "Then, respected Dragon King, the master controller also welcomes you to the H7521 Jingu Laboratory."
