"Pendant? Is the success of the experiment due to the addition of that pendant?" Allen looked at the pendant in Dracula's memory and couldn't help thinking.

"What on earth is that pendant? Why does it have such an effect?"

Dracula could not find any relevant information in her memory. Allen waved and stopped the operation of the rune array. Allen found Victor's notebook again and wanted to find information about the pendant on it.

Finally, in a diary, Allen found the origin of the pendant, which was obtained in a thrift store in London.

Victor frankstein was once an academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences. A talented young scientist was once a favorite of the Royal Society of England. However, the scientist was expelled from the Royal Academy of sciences because he studied some taboo knowledge and conducted some evil experiments.

Overnight, the rising star of the scientific community became a embarrassed drowning dog. He had no place in the scientific community of the whole western world.

Embarrassed Victor wanted to leave this land and go to the East, but what he did was known by Dracula in Romania, and Count Dracula sent him an invitation. Victor, who was desperate, went to Romania without hesitation and completed his experiment in this backward area.

He succeeded in creating a life with various dead body organs.

"It seems that if you want to find out about the pendant, you must go to London." Alan closed Victor's notebook and went out.

......

The British capital, London.

As the capital of the most powerful country in the world at this time, the environment in London is not as beautiful as expected. The climate here is humid and foggy, and the air is filled with the smell of sulfide.

As an industrial center, it consumes a huge amount of coal every day. Compared with the weather in Romania, it is more gloomy here. The Thames river passing through the city now drinks black and smelly water, which is the sewage ditch of the whole city.

A figure crossed the sky and landed on the spire of a church.

Allen overlooks this huge city full of British customs. At this time, London is crowded and the air is filled with the smell of horse dung. Although it is the capital of the most powerful empire of this period, the living environment here is very poor.

Sewage crossflow, human and animal feces everywhere on the road, the same busy port, and Victorian London are the most prosperous period of the city.

This is the peak of the British Industrial Revolution and the peak of various cultural economies. Various schools collide and integrate with each other here.

West London is the seat of the British palace, the prime minister's residence, Parliament and government, East London is an industrial area, South London is a mixed area of industry, commerce and residence, and Victor got the pendant in a thrift shop here.

The streets are noisy and lively. Well dressed British gentlemen with civilized hats and civilized sticks ride through in carriages. There are more ordinary workers with shabby clothes and dishes on the streets. Businessmen came and went in a hurry with handmaids, and the whole of London looked very busy.

Allen passed them silently, and then began to look for the thrift store according to the information in his notebook.

It went well. Alan found the thrift store without much effort, and then walked in. The small shop is not big. All kinds of second-hand goods are neatly stacked in the house. I don't think it's narrow and messy. Although the shop is small, it is very clean.

"What does the guest need?" an old man in his fifties came out and greeted Allen immediately.

"I'm George, the owner of this thrift shop. What do the guests need?"

"Have you seen this pendant?" Alan took out an envelope and handed it to George.

Some doubts opened the envelope and took out a picture with a beautiful red gem pendant on it.

"This thing is familiar. Let me think about it. People are old and have a bad memory." George looked at the picture and said.

Alan smiled, reached out and took out some gold coins and put them on the table.

Seeing the golden gold coins, George smiled: "Dear guest, I remember. I have indeed seen the Garnet Pendant on it."

"More than a year ago, I sold this Garnet Pendant to a young man."

"Where did you get that Garnet Pendant?" Alan nodded and continued.

"When I was young, I got this Garnet Pendant on a trip to Gaul." George looked at it. Alan continued, "guests like this Garnet Pendant? I have other similar ones here. Would you like to have a look?"

"Did you get it in one place?" Allen's eyes were the same when he heard it.

"Well, no, these were obtained elsewhere."

"Show it to me." Alan was disappointed, but he was ready to have a look.

Soon George came out of the room with a well-made wooden box in his hand: "guest, this is the Garnet Pendant, which is better in color and size than that one." he handed the box.

Allen took the wooden box and opened it. There were three garnet pendants the size of pigeon eggs. All three pendants were inlaid with silver. They looked well made. Allen was disappointed when he saw it. These garnet pendants have nothing special at all, even some ordinary garnets.

He picked it up and checked it, and Alan put it back.

"Are there any other garnet pendants?" Allen asked again.

"I'm sorry, there are only these." George looked at Alan and wondered, "guest, aren't you satisfied with these garnets?"

Alan shook his head in disappointment.

"Where did you get the Garnet Pendant in Gaul?" Allen asked, putting down some garnet pendants.

"I bought it at a stall in Paris." George answered Allen's question despite his doubts.

"Can you still find that man now?"

"I'm sorry, sir, that was more than ten years ago. Besides, it's a small vendor. Who knows where he will be now? And I've forgotten what that man looks like for so long." George said reluctantly.

"But I remember buying a letter with this Garnet Pendant," said George, as if suddenly remembered something.

"The letter? Where is it? Show it to me." Allen raised his eyebrows and was ready to give up. Unexpectedly, there was news.
