Chapter 381 Mysterious Old Man

(Putting up yesterday, I would like to thank "Hahawai" for its active support and rewards ^^ I have been a little busy recently. Please forgive me if I have any negligence or negligence. ")

It's true.

Xia Lan stared at the stairs at the underground cave entrance and breathed a sigh of relief. After sensing that there was nothing unusual in the cave entrance, he slowly walked down the stairs.

When he walked a few steps down the stairs, bright lights suddenly appeared on the walls of the wide passage, as if they were specifically guiding the road ahead. Xia Lan had seen many such underground passage layouts, so she didn't care too much.

I walked along the stairs for a long time until my eyes lit up. A spacious and bright laboratory appeared. A giant silver desk was placed in the clean and tidy laboratory, with carefully arranged alchemy tools everywhere on it. There was a ventilation duct above the wall at the far end, and the propeller-shaped fan blades kept rotating and making a slight sound of wind.

Xia Lan just glanced at the alchemy desk, and then turned her attention to the bookcase and desk in the laboratory.

He was not Winnie. If she had seen the alchemy desk, she might have rushed forward with her eyes shining. What he needed was research materials, and research materials could not be placed on the alchemy desk.

"Miss, why are you here?"

Suddenly, a strange voice sounded silently behind Xia Lan.

Xia Lan was shocked because his perception did not detect the slightest breath of the visitor!

"I encountered a problem in an academic research, so I planned to find my father's latest research materials to see if there are any solutions to it." Xia Lan replied calmly without changing her face.

"So that's it. All the adult information is placed in the bookshelf. Miss, you can browse it at will." The voice behind him said.

Xia Lan nodded and pretended to be nothing, came to the bookshelf and searched carefully. She glanced at the person behind her without leaving any trace. Only then did he see the other person's appearance slightly.

Unexpectedly, the other party was an old man who looked ordinary, without any breath of power on his body. He was flipping with a book in his hand, his eyes staying on the pages, as if he was blind to Xia Lan.

How did he appear? Why did he not find his breath when he sensed it?

With such doubts, Xia Lan's vigilance became heavier.

"There does not seem to be the latest research information from my father here. Do you know where my father was placed?" Xia Lan decided to speak out to test the old man's background.

"The latest research information? Miss, which one are you talking about?" The old man raised his head slightly and looked at Xia Lan with his turbid eyes half-closed.

"The information my father published during the academic exchanges in Minas." Xia Lan said calmly.

"Oh... you are talking about that information. Lord Magnison took it away when he went out." The old man thought for a while and suddenly realized.

What? The information was taken away?

Xia Lan's heart suddenly became uneasy.

"Didn't my father leave behind the backup information?" Xia Lan asked immediately.

"I remember that the adults seemed to have left the original information, but..." The old man stared at Xia Lan and said, "Why is the eldest lady so anxious to ask for this information? Maybe it's more convenient to ask when Lord Magnison comes back."

"I...I just want to give my father a surprise." Xia Lan said in silence for a moment.

"It seems that Miss, you have made new progress in academic research?" the old man said in surprise.

"Yes, but I was trapped in the last important argument, so..." Xia Lan said with her lips pursed.

"Since that's the case, I'll help you find it."

The old man nodded, closed the book in his hand, then slowly walked to another bookshelf and began to read the documents and materials on it. After a while, he walked to Xia Lan with a stack of documents in his arms and said, "These are all academic documents that Lord Magnison studied a few days ago, but the contents of the materials recorded in them are too scattered. I am afraid that you need to sort them out slowly to find out the specific research content of the materials."

"Thanks."

Xia Lan reached out to hold the information and nodded and thanked.

"This is the first time I have seen you be so polite to me, Miss." The old man smiled.

After getting the information, Xia Lan decided to leave immediately, and for some reason, there were always places on the old man that he felt strange and dangerous.

After Xia Lan said goodbye politely, the old man stayed in the laboratory and watched him leave until Xia Lan's figure disappeared from the passage stairs. The old man suddenly sighed softly.

"You must always have a bottom line of conscience..."

...

It was difficult to sneak in and leave Yi, and Xia Lan, who included the information in the virtual ring, successfully left Magnison's villa until the next day, when he came to the Alchemy Association to find Baird and handed most of the information in the virtual ring to Baird for verification.

Byard looked very carefully, and his face became heavier as time passed. After he finished reading all the information, he immediately asked Xia Lan: "The information is not complete!"

"Yes! Because there is still some information in my hands." Xia Lan said. "When you hand me the potion I need, the last information will be presented."

Baird stared at Xia Lan for a while, and then said with a gloomy face for a long time: "Come here next week and take it away with that woman's potion!"

"I would like to ask something, is this information really okay?" After all, Xia Lan asked this question.

"What do you know?! Although the records in this material are scattered, the research direction and content have been clarified. Many problems that I have never understood have been solved! I really didn't expect that Magnison and the others would have studied to this point!" Baird said in a low voice. "If I don't listen to your advice and forcefully disclose that Magnison's stealing of my academic research, I'm afraid I will be ruined in the end! After all, they have greatly surpassed me in the progress of this academic research, and I have no ability to argue such an ironclad fact!"

Xia Lan was speechless. He didn't expect that even the original materials could inspire Baird so much. Could this be the reason why they are masters? He didn't know, but the old man in the underground laboratory of Villa Magnison would always come to his mind inexplicably.

Who is he?

"Byard, I met a very strange person when I sneaked into the Magnison Villa Laboratory to steal materials last night." Xia Lan couldn't help but ask Baird, who was familiar with Magnison, hoping to know some answers from him.

"Who?" Baird frowned.

As he said that, Xia Lan carefully depicted the other party's image.

Byard remained silent for a long time, then shook his head and said, "You don't have to take this matter to heart."

"Um?"

"I probably know who he is."

"who is he?"
