Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 83: “Blind Detective” Bill
"It's really the famous blind detective..."
Su Lun looked at the person sitting on the chair and doubted for a moment whether it was the materialization of his own thoughts, but he immediately denied it. He was sure that he had only thought of various cuties, but never this old man.
Moreover, the appearance of "blind detective" Bill makes things even more complicated and confusing.
What is a guy who looks like a young hero from the "Umbrella Organization" doing here?
And according to the intelligence, this guy was rented the property at No. 88 Ginkgo Street a few months ago.
Is the blind man appearing in front of me now dead or alive?
...........
"Blind Detective" Bill is blind, so his perception is extremely strong.
When Su Lun first came down, he had already noticed the old cowboy's cochlea moving slightly.
In front of a real "gun master", Su Lun didn't dare to be careless at all. His hands were always on the handle of the gun at his waist, but he made no misunderstanding of the action of drawing the gun.
Bill showed no malice and spoke first, asking: "Are you human?"
"Yes."
Su Lun responded and breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good news to start a fight without meeting each other.
Furthermore, being able to talk, even if it is "weird", the level of danger is instantly reduced by several levels.
At this moment, Su Lun saw a pool of scarlet blood flowing at Bill's feet, which looked like he was injured.
Not only did he not underestimate this guy's strength, he was even more cautious.
As for the rules on the third floor that can manifest horrors and fantasies, if it weren't for some tricks, it would be hard for Su Lun to imagine that anyone could survive. And this guy seems to have survived by fighting. He only suffered some less fatal injuries, which was enough to prove his super strength.
However, Su Lun looked at the corridor where there were no signs of fighting, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Bill spoke again and asked: "Who are you?"
As he spoke, he looked at Su Lun. Although his cataract-like eyes could not see, they looked accurately in the direction of Su Lun.
Su Lun responded: "I am a tenant at No. 88 Ginkgo Street. I don't know why I got involved here."
After a pause, he asked directly: "Sir, do you know what is going on?"
He wanted to get some information from this old cowboy.
After all, he is the legendary detective. He must know something when he comes to Ginkgo Street.
Bill keenly captured a detail in Suellen's words and asked: "New tenant? How long have I disappeared?"
Su Lun secretly praised it, but did not intend to tell the truth, "Huh? I don't know what you said. I just moved in today."
"..."
Bill's expression was very calm, and he obviously heard that Su Lun had reservations about his words, but he didn't say much.
Probably because he thought there was a difference between the time flow rate in the cursed space and reality, he didn't go into detail about this issue.
If you can't get out, there's no point in talking about this topic.
He did not hide his identity as a detective and said: "As you can see, this is a cursed space left from ancient times. I was involved because I accepted a 'tracing commission' and eventually found I followed the clues and found the small building on Ginkgo Street. How did you get in?"
There is nothing to hide about this question. Su Lun said truthfully: "I am a new tenant. I heard that someone died in the house before. So I checked the house carefully, and I didn't expect that I was involved in it for no reason."
Through the dialogue, Suriname also captured some key information.
He heard Grandet say that this blind man was here to investigate or something, which should be what he called a "tracing commission."
Following the clues, I came here and got caught. It sounds like... No. 88 Ginkgo Street itself is a "trap"?
But who is so generous as to use cursed space to plot against people?
"Blind Detective" Bill is not an ordinary person, and the things he investigates are certainly not simple. At this moment, Su Lun also understood that he might have accidentally been involved in some conflict between high-level professionals.
"Oh, that's it..."
Bill didn't seem surprised. He was able to come in, so he naturally knew the special triggering conditions of this cursed space.
At this time, he said something incomprehensible: "It is not the dead who sleep eternally. Even death itself will disappear in the mysterious eternity."
"..."
Su Lun has been in the gang for so long, and when he heard it, he immediately realized that what he said was either a code word or some slang cut.
Moreover, 80% of it is the secret code of the "Umbrella Organization".
This guy wants to confirm his identity!
Su Lun wanted to pick up, but couldn't. He could only say: "Sir, what did you just say?"
Hearing this, Bill looked a little disappointed and whispered to himself: "That clue has been cut off, and no one will look for it again."
After a pause, he asked again: "The monsters upstairs are very strong, how can you survive? Listening to your breathing, you shouldn't be a second-level professional yet."
Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief because he didn't turn his back on the person because the passwords didn't match up.
The monster upstairs?
There are no monsters upstairs!
Hearing this, Su Lun suddenly confirmed something in his heart, and with a flash of inspiration, he confirmed something even more.
He said: "I encountered a few zombie species that were not very strong, and I found..."
He wanted to remind the blind detective not to think wildly, but he was interrupted.
But Bill seemed to have discovered something in his tone, shook his head and sighed: "Your tone told me that you were hiding something. However, it doesn't matter anymore. We probably won't survive. .."
"..."
Su Lun looked at the sallow face carved with knives and axes, and was slightly startled.
At the same time, he suddenly thought of what this guy meant when he said this, and secretly thought something was wrong.
However, it was too late to dissuade him.
At this time, the old cowboy suddenly heard something, his ears twitched, and he shouted softly: "The monster is here again, be careful!"
While speaking, his hand had already touched the musket hanging on his waist.
When Su Lun heard this, he knew it was too late.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of water rushing, as if the water tank had been exploded and was being filled with water. Looking closer, he saw blood pouring in like a bursting dam at the end of the corridor on the second floor, and a very terrifying monster sprang out. A red humanoid aberration with blurred facial features, like a skinned gorilla.
Just by the **** sense of oppression, Su Lun immediately realized that this was definitely not a first-order weirdness!
Su Lun was shocked.
He immediately realized that the monster was a terrifying manifestation of the old cowboy's imagination.
A blind man cannot see the precise appearance of a monster, but he can mentally draw a rough outline through other means of perception. Doesn’t the abstract painting-like skinless blood orangutan in front of us exactly match the inner manifestation of the blind man?
.......
The monster had just appeared, and Bill's reaction was not slow at all.
He stood up and turned around, and in his hand was a super-capacity submachine gun that looked like a "Chicago Typewriter". The trigger was pulled, tongues of fire spurted out, and a dense and crisp sound of "Tata Ta Ta Ta..." was made.
Su Lun looked at the gun and recognized it immediately: "The famous high-speed gun [Woodpecker]!"
Although he couldn't see anything, his shuttle hit the **** orangutan's leg accurately, causing a **** explosion.
Su Lun saw some clues again: "Listen to the voice and argue?!"
The gorilla was stabbed by a gunshot in its leg, staggered, and hit its head on the wall.
At this collision, Bill suddenly took out a black revolver the size of a forearm with his left hand and fired three shots in a row.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The sound of gunfire was so loud that three shots almost sounded like one shot.
Su Lun himself is a firearms expert, so he can naturally understand the power of Bill's marksmanship.
Three shots were fired in succession, and the bullets seemed to be connected end to end, perfectly overlapping and hitting the same point on the monster's head.
"The secret of advanced firearms——[Multiple overlapping shots]!"
Su Lun's pupils shrank slightly, and he secretly sighed in his heart that the master was worthy of being a master.
Even with alchemy bullets, ordinary gunmen would not be able to break through this kind of at least second-level aberration monster. But if three shots hit the same point on the target in a very short period of time, the target's defense can be broken before it recovers.
One shot shocks, two shots break armor, and three shots penetrate!
This skill is currently beyond his reach. It requires extremely high skill, precision, and... a rune gun.
The heavy revolver in Bill's hand is also the key to firing. It is the famous rune gun - [Snake's Kiss]!
One shot is accurate, is this still a blind man?
In this short period of one or two seconds, Su Lun witnessed Bill, the "blind detective", seriously injuring a second-level aberration.
However, everything is not over yet.
Human thinking is active, especially when encountering terrorist incidents.
When Su Lun saw the first monster appearing, he knew that things were going to be bad and had no time to warn him.
Sure enough, before the blood gorilla was completely dead, two huge "flying monsters" sprang out of thin air from both ends of the corridor, almost blocking the corridor. The facial features of the human heads are as blurry as plaster statues, but the hair on their heads is like living black snake heads.
Look at the image of this monster. It is obviously a product of the world of the blind man's senses, and it was created by the old cowboy's brain.
There are no horror movies in this world that can provide material. Eighty percent of what he thinks of are things he has experienced or actually exist.
How many horrific things has this guy experienced?
It’s okay to make it more difficult for yourself, it’s only increased to this level.
If you stay any longer, you will be implicated to death by this guy sooner or later!
Seeing this, Su Lun didn't hesitate at all, turned around and retreated along the stairs to the third floor.
