"Pendant? Could it be that the success of the experiment was due to the addition of that pendant?" Allen couldn't help thinking while looking at the pendant in Dracula's memory.

"What the hell is that pendant? Why does it have such an effect."

Dracula could not find any information related to it at all in his memory. Allen waved his hand and stopped the operation of the rune circle. Allen found Victor's notebook again, wanting to find information about the pendant in it.

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

Victor Frankenstein used to be an academician of the Royal Academy of Sciences, a talented young scientist who was once the darling of the Royal Society, but this scientist was expelled from the Royal Academy of Sciences and kicked out because of researching some taboo knowledge and conducting some evil experiments .

Overnight, this rising star in the scientific community turned into a distressed underdog. He has no place in the scientific community in the entire Western world.

The distraught Victor wanted to leave this land and go to the east, but what he had done was known by Dracula in Romania, and Count Dracula sent him an invitation letter. With nowhere to go, Victor went to Romania without hesitation and completed his experiments in this backward region.

He successfully created a life with the organs of various dead bodies.

"It seems that if you want to find out about the pendant, you have to go to London." Allen closed Victor's notebook and walked out.

 …

British capital, London.

As the capital of the most powerful country in the world in this era, London's environment is not as beautiful as imagined. The climate here is humid, the fog is very heavy, and there is a smell of sulfide in the air.

As an industrial center, a huge amount of coal is consumed here every day. Compared with the weather in Romania, the weather here is more gloomy. The Thames River that passes through the city is now black and smelly. This is the sewage ditch of the entire city.

A figure streaked across the sky and landed on the steeple of a church.

Allen overlooked this huge city full of British style. At this time, London was full of traffic, and the air was filled with a smell of horse manure. Although it was the capital of the most powerful empire in this period, the living environment here was very poor.

Sewage flows across the road, human and animal excrement can be seen everywhere on the road,

The equally busy port, still in Victorian London, was when the city was at its most powerful.

This is the peak of the British Industrial Revolution and the peak of various cultural economies, where various schools of thought collide and merge with each other.

West London is the seat of the Royal Palace, the Prime Minister's residence, the parliament and the government, East London is an industrial area, and South London is a mixed area of ​​industry, commerce and residence. Victor got the pendant in a thrift shop here.

The streets were noisy and lively, well-dressed British gentlemen wearing civilized hats and holding civilized sticks rode through the carriages, and there were more ordinary workers in shabby clothes and disheveled faces on the streets. The merchants came and went with their handymen, and the whole of London seemed extremely busy.

Allen walked past them quietly, and then started looking for the thrift store according to the information in the notebook.

It went well, and Allen found the thrift store without much effort, and then walked in with a step. The small shop is not big, and all kinds of second-hand goods are neatly piled up in the room. It is not as narrow and messy as imagined. Although the shop is small, it is very clean.

"What do the guests need?" An old man in his fifties came out and greeted Alan immediately after seeing him.

"I'm George, the owner of this thrift store, what do you need?"

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

He opened the envelope with some doubts, and took out a picture from inside, which showed a beautiful red gemstone pendant.

"This thing is a little familiar. Let me think about it. People have a bad memory when they are old." Seeing the things on the picture, George said with his eyes moving.

Allen smiled slightly, reached out and took out a few gold coins and put them on the table.

Seeing the golden gold coin, George smiled all over his face: "Dear guest, I remembered, I have indeed seen the garnet pendant on it."

"I sold this garnet pendant to a young man more than a year ago."

"Where did you get that garnet pendant?" Allen nodded and continued to ask.

"I got this garnet pendant when I was young, when I traveled to Gaul." George glanced at Allen and continued: "The guest likes this garnet pendant? I have other similar ones here. The guest wants Don't take a look?"

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

"Uh, no, I got these elsewhere."

"Take it out and let me see it." Allen was disappointed when he heard it, but he was still ready to take a look.

Soon George came out of the room, holding 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 over as he spoke.

Allen took the wooden box casually and opened it to see that there were three garnet pendants the size of pigeon eggs inside. The three pendants were all inlaid with silver ornaments, and the workmanship seemed to be pretty good. It's just that Allen was disappointed after a glance. These garnet pendants have nothing special at all, even some ordinary garnets.

After picking it up and checking it, Allen put it back.

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

"I'm sorry, there are only a few of these." George looked at Alan with some doubts: "Guest, are you not satisfied with these few garnets?"

Allen shook his head in disappointment.

"Then where did you get that garnet pendant in Gaul?" Allen asked as he put down a few garnet pendants.

"I bought it at a stall in Paris." Although George was puzzled, he still answered Alan's question.

"Then can you still find that person now?"

"I'm sorry, sir, that was more than ten years ago. Besides, it was a small street vendor. Who knows where he will be now? And I have long forgotten what that person looks like after such a long time." George was helpless He spread his hands and said.

"But I remember that I bought a handbook with this garnet pendant." George said as if he suddenly remembered something.

"Letter? Where is it? Show it to me." Allen raised his eyebrows. He was about to give up, but he didn't expect there to be news.
