Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 3: [C079-Tempered Bones]

"I couldn't even get 'him' out, so the situation is a bit bad now..."

Su Lun looked at the murderous look in Bald Zhuang's eyes and smiled bitterly in his heart.

Grab the gun to kill the cock-combed head, and try your luck to find the opportunity to shoot the bald head.

The plan was originally well thought out.

And luck also favored him. Everything went according to plan, and even the shelling didn't cause much damage to him.

Unfortunately, this shot failed to kill the bald head in the end.

After all....

Normal people would never imagine that the enemy would have the "extraordinary ability" to physically resist bullets!

.......

After shooting, Su Lun completely lost the opportunity to take action.

The bald man took off the bullet embedded in his forehead with his fingers, with a sarcastic smile on his face.

He did not fire the high-pressure spray cannon on the mechanical arm, but stamped his feet. A ripple of air exploded, and the figure disappeared from the spot.

Looking again, the bald head had already rushed a few meters like a ghost and appeared in front of Su Lun.

The big iron pliers grabbed Su Lun's neck, and with the strange force of the collision, the bald head hit the wall heavily along with the mahogany chairs that were tied together.

There was a crunching sound.

The wooden chair was torn into pieces, and the splinters fell like rain.

Su Lun had no time to react at all. He felt as if he had been hit by an elephant, and his vision went dark. I couldn't hold back the fishy taste in my throat, and with a "puff", a mouthful of turbid blood mixed with internal organs spurted out.

The silver revolver in his hand also fell to the ground, and he lost the only weapon he could use to resist.

And now it seems that the gun is useless.

The bald head's speed was ridiculously fast. It exploded at close range, so fast that people couldn't keep up with their eyes.

Another ability that surpasses ordinary humans...

However, this did not surprise Su Lun any more.

You can't even die with a headshot, so there's nothing surprising about being faster.

......

The bald head stared fiercely at Su Lun, who had his feet dangling against the wall. He gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, you didn't expect that my awakened talent is [C079-Steeled Skeleton]. If it weren't for this ability, I might not be here today." I'm really going to fall into your hands..."

As he spoke, his bald head glanced at the corpse of his companion in a pool of blood on the ground, his eyes growing colder.

Thinking back to that tricky shot just now, I still feel scared. If he hadn't avoided the vital point, I'm afraid he himself would be a corpse on the ground now.

The bald man exerted force in his hands, wanting to strangle the boy in front of him to death.

But I didn’t know what came to mind, and I hesitated for a moment.

Su Lun muttered silently in his mind, "Talent, steel skeleton? Extraordinary ability..."

Then he closed his eyelids weakly...

The bald man's mechanical arm clasped the neck tightly like an iron clamp, and the strong suffocating feeling left no doubt that the guy could easily break a person's neck.

But he was not killed the first time, so Su Lun didn't panic at all.

Because he saw the bald head's hesitation.

He knew very well that this guy did not kill him immediately, and most likely he still coveted the "secret" of the original owner.

But at this time, the bald man's patience had probably been exhausted by the death of his companion.

Su Lun understood that if he said one more word at this moment, this guy might kill him in anger.

So, he exhaled the last breath in his chest and uttered five words with difficulty: "I have a treasure map."

Sure enough!

As soon as these words came out, the murderous intention was still as cold as before, but Su Lun also obviously felt that the suffocation feeling weakened instantly.

The iron hand on his neck quietly let go of the gap where he could breathe.

"Huh..."

A disdainful sneer.

The bald man was not as stupid as he looked. He also knew that Su Lun wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to survive.

But he still gave him a chance and said coldly: "Boy, you only have one chance to tell me the information that interests me, and I will let you die happily."

As soon as he finished speaking, the big hand of the iron pliers grabbed it hard, and there was a clear sound of bone cracking.

Su Lun's eyebrows twitched in pain, as if he was weak, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, but he was actually reading the information on the retina quickly.

Is it just a happy death?

He didn't pay attention to this sentence at all, and said directly: "There is a secret door in the seventh door on the left side of the main corridor of the manor banquet hall. The lampstand on the wall is a mechanism, leading to the underground, where there is a maze. .."

These words are not made up casually, but are information obtained from the retina.

In such a short period of time, in a completely unfamiliar world, it is easy to find out if you want to fabricate an impeccable lie.

The only way to find out is death.

Although I don’t know what the method of leaving information on the retina is, Su Lun can see that message as long as he closes his eyes.

The content is as follows:

"My dear Fick, when you read this message, your memory should have been erased. Although the fate is cruel,... the matter is over. As for the truth of the matter, for now It is no longer important to you. I know that you may not be willing to accept it, so I left you something, which can be regarded as compensation for you. If fate does not abandon you, and you have enough strength in the future By searching for the truth, you can naturally come into contact with the truth about being exiled; if not, living in the darkness may be a good thing for you. Remember, don’t trust anyone, especially those guys on the upper levels of the Black Tower..."

In addition to this paragraph, the information on the retina was followed by some obscure words that I had no time to read carefully, which seemed to be an explanation of a certain magical power called "alchemy" in this world.

Then there is that very strange circuit diagram.

It is not a plan view, but a three-dimensional, zigzag fluorescent line, labeled from top to bottom. Like a mine or some abyss cave.

Su Lun glanced at it and roughly understood the reason for the matter.

The predecessor's name was "Fick", and it seemed that he was "exiled" for some reason.

However, these have nothing to do with him as a time traveler.

Anyway, he doesn’t have any memory, and he has no interest in the original owner’s past.

Su Lun is more concerned about the current situation.

Judging from the title, it was a relative of the original owner who left these words on his retina.

It was also because of this information that the original owner came to this manor to look for the... ancient ruins marked on the map?

For those who haven’t come here, if you take a closer look, it’s probably the inheritance related to the bald man’s magical “extraordinary talent” that can withstand bullets with his head.

......

Su Lun selectively told some information while ignoring some key points.

For example, he did not explain the details of how to navigate the maze; another example is that there are many lampstands in the room, and only the correct one can open the underground passage, and the others will trigger the mechanism...

If you want to survive this murderous bald man, you have to show your worth.

If you want to continue living, you cannot explain your value all at once.

As long as the enemy is not stupid, he will definitely not kill him now.

Sure enough!

Hearing this, a strange color flashed in the bald man's eyes.

He had already guessed that the kid in front of him, who was offered a reward for assassination by the big shots in the inner city, had a secret.

However, after the death of a brother, Bald Head also became cautious. He asked: "What treasures are hidden in this manor?"

Su Lun pretended to be weak and closed his eyes, read the text on the retina, and said accordingly: "It is said that... there are relics left by 'Sir Isaac'."

As soon as he finished speaking, the bald head seemed to have heard something extraordinary, and his expression suddenly changed, "What!"

"..."

The tone was suddenly very rough, and Su Lun glanced up.

Although I didn’t know what “Sir Isaac” meant, looking at the bald man’s face, I knew it was probably some incredible treasure.

But this is good news for Su Lun.

Now he is more confident that he will not die for the time being.
