Chapter 168

And on the other side, Dorothy and Junior Sister Audrey were studying the architectural structure of this sky island together.

"Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder it could take that kind of magic spell without shattering. This material is solid to an outrageous degree, okay? All special-grade floating stones. What kind of family can afford this?"

Dorothy touched the hard ground and couldn't help but sigh.

Floating stone is the main material for witches to build sky islands. Natural floating stones were originally very rare and precious, but since witches cracked the composition of floating stones and started artificial synthesis, this material has become cabbage price.

It's just that although artificial floating stones are cheap, in order to save costs in large-scale mass production, the quality is slightly worse than natural ones.

The two are almost the same in terms of floating ability, but the hardness is worlds apart.

Natural floating stones have a hardness comparable to diamond, but artificial floating stones usually only have the hardness of ordinary stones.

After all, this degree of hardness is more than enough for building materials. This is not building a fortress, so why be so extravagant?

Of course, if there is really a demand for hardness, then you can also find a manufacturer to customize special-grade floating stones that completely restore the strength of natural floating stones. It's just that the price is more than ten times more expensive than ordinary floating stones.

The positioning of this thing is high-end luxury goods, and ordinary witch families really can't afford it.

And now, in this thirteenth ring of the Witch Academy, such a sky island made entirely of special-grade floating stones has appeared, which is really a bit strange.

This is simply like discovering an exquisite single-family villa in a slum. No matter how you look at it, it is incongruous.

"Junior Sister, what do you think?"

The Home Witch took a deep breath of the calming smoke in the pipe in her mouth, and then asked Audrey beside her.

"Senior Sister, I think there must be something tricky about this."

The little fox was also serious, saying so.

Afterwards, the two went to observe the collapsed buildings that had turned into ruins. Although these buildings had been completely destroyed, it was not a problem to look at the materials between the broken walls.

"Good guy, magic-breaking wall bricks, dragon-scale insulating wooden boards. Turtle, turtle, what kind of research was done here before? Is it worth such a high-level treatment?"

Not looking is one thing, looking is a shock. The special-grade floating stones before could be considered luxury, but compared with these two things, they are younger brothers.

Magic-breaking wall bricks, as the name suggests, are special wall bricks that can block magic. Special anti-magic materials are added to these wall bricks during the firing process, and these materials were originally used to build anti-magic weapons or anti-magic armor, which are military supplies. Their preciousness is evident.

And dragon-scale insulating wooden boards are the same. Dragon-scale wood is a rare natural high-magic-resistance material. This precious wood only grows in places bathed in dragon blood. Its wood grain resembles dragon scales, and it has about half the magic resistance of dragon scales, so it is called dragon-scale insulating wood.

Generally, only high-risk laboratories will use a small amount of these two materials to build one or two dedicated laboratories.

And the high blocking of magic by such materials can not only effectively prevent the danger in the laboratory from leaking, but also prevent people from using magic to peek at anything.

But still the same sentence, this thirteenth ring has a ghost of a high-end research institute. Is it worth using such high-level materials?

You are afraid that you are doing some forbidden research, so you sneaked to this thirteenth ring on the edge, and also set up such a high-end laboratory specification, right?

The sisters looked at each other, and saw similar speculations in each other's eyes.

"Little goblin, do you have any discoveries?"

Just then, Senior Sister Miya also walked over and asked Dorothy.

"There is a little bit. Senior Sister, who is the owner of this laboratory?"

Dorothy was a bit conflicted about whether to say her discovery. After all, she felt like she had been involved in some troublesome event, so she first asked carefully.

To this, Senior Sister Miya looked at the Rat Witch Ista who was following her.

"Young Lady, the owner here is the nearby Tennyson Academy. This is an academy that is about to close down. They are currently hanging up signs to sell assets. This sky island was originally prepared to be sent to the auction house for auction. As a result, the people from the auction house didn't have time to come over for appraisal, and it became like this."

And hearing such an answer, Dorothy's inspiration jumped wildly, and her trouble-radar started to alarm frantically.

Although it is quite normal for academies to open and close in the thirteenth ring, how could an academy capable of building such an ultra-standard laboratory say it will close? I believe your ghost.

And this kind of ultra-standard laboratory, where would they dare to show it to the people of the auction house? This professional appraiser can see the special nature of the building materials at a glance. This will scare people to death. After all, the several medium and large commercial sky islands around added together might not be as valuable as this small sky island.

So, is this because they were afraid of exposing the problem, so they blew it up in advance to destroy the evidence?

Dorothy speculated in her heart, but she quickly shook her head and overturned this possibility.

No, no, it shouldn't be that the school side of Tennyson Academy blew it up themselves. After all, they could completely choose not to auction this laboratory. Why sell it and destroy it again? Isn't this superfluous?

Then is there a possibility that this is actually two groups of people?

The school side, as the owner of the laboratory, might know nothing about the special nature of this laboratory, so they want to sell it. But the person who secretly transformed this laboratory behind the school's back didn't want to see their secret discovered, so they planned this attack?

Dorothy made such a speculation again. Thinking about it this way, it is reasonable.

However, she quickly suppressed the curiosity in her heart.

"Damn, can't think about it anymore. This broken thing is really troublesome. Knowing too much will not end well."

If it is really as she expected, then there is too much involvement behind this matter. It is not something she, a weak little witch, can get involved in. So, she immediately prepared to do more things than less, and just pretended not to know anything.

Hmm, after going back, she will immediately send a message to let Alice stop worrying about it, and directly report this matter to the School Committee. This is no longer something that the little witches of the Disciplinary Committee can handle. It is better to let those professors and teachers of the School Committee take over this matter.

The Home Witch followed the call of her heart and made such a decision.

It's just that she just wanted to open her mouth to find a random reason to muddle through, but at this time, Hat Senior Sister on her head spoke.

"Interesting, interesting. Dorothy, don't you like this small sky island very much? It just so happens that the school side wants to sell it. Why don't you take action? Now that it is severely damaged, it is very convenient to suppress the price."

Senior Fan Ni Senior Sister issued the whisper of the ancient god, and persuaded her like this.

To this, the Home Witch couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Forget it, Senior Sister. The water here is really too deep. I'm afraid I can't grasp it."

Although she indeed likes the location and environment of this sky island, she can't handle this hot potato with obvious problems. Besides, although this sky island seems severely damaged, those high-level materials are not so easy to damage. It's just that it fell apart, and most of the materials can be reused. She can't afford the material money alone.

"You can't grasp it? Isn't there me? I am at least a member of this club. Although I am lazy to move, I can still watch the house."

..... The ancient god whispered again.....
