Chapter 16 Figures on the Relief

【urgent! urgent! urgent! urgent! urgent! Twelve were revealed, and there are still dozens of votes left. Everyone voted, and help Laoyue get back to the 12th, please! 】

"Swish swish".

With the light from the window, Merlin was wearing pajamas and repeatedly wrote Morta's words on the white paper with a feather pen. After writing for a while, Merlin picked up the embossed sculpture next to it and carefully examined every stripe on it.

"The Morta text on the relief is actually a number six. What does this represent? Is it the sixth relief? Or is it the sequence number six?"

Merlin frowned tightly. There were very few clues left on the relief, and it was still very difficult to find the origin of the relief.

It has been nine days since Merlin learned Morta from Aita. During these nine days, Merlin has mastered a considerable part of Morta's vocabulary. Old Aita sometimes praises Merlin's talent in writing.

So it wasn't until yesterday that Merlin finally recognized the Morta script on the relief, which was a "six" written in Morta script, but Merlin didn't know what exactly this number represented.

Originally thought that as long as you know the Morta text on the relief, you can find out the origin of the relief, but now it seems that this idea is impossible to achieve.

"Master Merlin, the hot water is ready."

Lucica filled the tub with hot water, Merlin turned to look at the steaming tub behind him, nodded slightly and said, "I see, you go out first."

After Lucica went out, Merlin jumped into the tub.

Merlin closed his eyes slightly, with a comfortable look on his face, he already liked the habit of taking a hot bath in the morning.

Although Merlin insisted on the posture on the relief every night, he also noticed that as time went on, after he got up in the morning recently, the sweat stains on his body had become less. The role of the body has become smaller and smaller.

In fact, Merlin was very impressed with the effect of the pose on the relief during these nine days. Although his skin was still fair, his body did not seem to have gotten stronger.

But Merlin knew in his heart that his strength was now several times greater than that of nine days ago, and his skin had become more resilient, as if a film had formed on the surface of the skin, which greatly improved the body's Hit resistance.

Then there are many benefits such as more sensitive ears, farther eyes, flexible body, etc. All these changes are due to the strange posture on this mysterious relief.

Because of this, Merlin was paying more and more attention to the relief. He hoped to know the origin of the relief, so as to find a second or even more relief. After all, he also felt that just one relief made his body happen. It seems that the changes in the statue are also limited, and it is likely that after some time, the posture on this relief will have no effect on him.

After soaking in hot water for half an hour, Merlin got up, dressed and went downstairs. Breakfast was already ready, a bowl of wheat porridge with a few slices of bread, and a large glass of hot milk on the table.

After Merlin had breakfast, he looked up at the butler who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Butler, what's the matter?"

Merlin asked softly, he had already noticed that something was wrong with the housekeeper today.

The butler hesitated for a while, but still said, "Master Meilin, Miss Mei Xue has been away from the castle for nine days.

I haven't been back for so long, do you want to send someone to visit Gran City? "

Merlin was stunned for a moment. He had been studying Morta's writing in the past few days, and he lived a full life every day, but he had indeed forgotten about Mei Xue.

I remember Mei Xue said that it only takes three or five days to go to Gran City to communicate. It's almost ten days now, but she hasn't come back yet. No wonder the housekeeper is worried.

"Well, don't rush to send someone to Gran City. I'll find time to go to Anson's house later to see if he has any news."

The butler also nodded, and then ordered the servants to clear the table.

"call……"

Merlin walked out of the castle, and a gust of cold wind blew, which made Merlin shiver uncontrollably. Although it hasn't snowed any more in the past few days, and the weather has been sunny for a few days, it was still very cold when he walked outside.

"Moss, go to Teacher Aita."

Merlin hesitated for a while. He went to Old Aita's place, usually in the afternoon. Today, he was going to Anson to inquire about some news, so he had to explain the situation to Old Aita first.

So, the carriage slowly left the castle.

*****

Merlin stood in front of old Aita's door and whispered, "Mr. Aita."

After a while, Merlin didn't hear any response from old Aita, so Merlin reached out and knocked on the door.

"Squeak".

With a light touch of Merlin's hand, the door was pushed open.

Merlin hesitated for a while, but went in anyway. He looked around and saw no sign of old Aita. It seemed that old Aita was not at home.

"Mr. Aita is really too careless. The door is not locked, so aren't you afraid of thieves entering?"

Merlin murmured, the recent security in Blackwater City is not very good, but Merlin knows that old Aita is usually weird and mysterious. He has been here for almost ten days, and he does not know what old Aita is what does it do. The only person who knew about this house was the old man Aita. Usually, except for Merlin and Kellis who came here once in a while, no one else came to the house.

So Merlin privately guessed that the old man Aita might have come to Blackwater City alone.

Seeing that the old Aita was not at home, Merlin looked up and saw the room where the old Aita kept the antiques. Except that Merlin visited the antiques in the room accompanied by Kelly that day, the old Aita usually did not allow Merlin Enter that room.

But the more old Aita refused to let Merlin in, the more Merlin wanted to go in, especially when Merlin saw the giant eye oil painting on the wall, it was full of mystery, and Merlin wanted to take a closer look.

Thinking of this, Merlin walked straight to the room.

But when I just came to the door of the room, there was a knock on the door, and a familiar voice rang: "Is Mr. Aita at home? I'm Kelly."

"Kelise?"

Merlin immediately turned around and opened the door. Kelly was slightly taken aback when she saw that it was Merlin who opened the door: "Merlin? Where's Mr. Aita?"

Merlin shook his head and said, "Mr. Aita is not here, Kelly, come in first."

Kelly was a little hesitant, but she still walked in and looked around. There was indeed no sign of old Aita, and a hint of disappointment appeared on her face.

"Miss Kellys, do you have anything to do with Mr. Aita?"

Merlin noticed Kelly's disappointed expression and asked in a low voice.

Kelly said helplessly: "It's a coincidence, I bought a very special antique yesterday, I'm not sure if it is an antique from the Morta Empire period, so I want to find Mr. Aita to see, But unfortunately, Mr. Aita is not there."

"What kind of antique is it, can I see it?"

Merlin was a little curious. Kelly's identification was still of a certain standard, and even she was a little unsure. It must be a very unique antique.
