Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 131: Soothsayer


The cave is not the old city of Lingdun, so there is no scruples if you really want to take action.

Su Lun can retreat calmly after killing them.

With this complex terrain, even if ten times the number of pursuers from the siege of Old Lingdun came again, they might not be able to catch him.

But in this way, his plan to go to Dawn City in a low-key manner was ruined, and the identity of "Johnny" had to be discarded.

But now, it seems that the only option is to take action.

......

"Hey...that's you, take off the mask!"

The guy from the "Iron Cavalry" opposite Su Lun was still urging him to take off his mask.

After all, it is time to set up camp and rest, and most of the people in the transport team do not wear gas masks on their faces. The man glanced past and naturally saw the difference in Su Lun.

Seeing that Su Lun didn't make any movement, the man also raised the muzzle of his gun, as if he would shoot as soon as he sensed something was wrong.

You must not take off the mask. If you take it off, there will definitely be problems.

Listening to the urging, Su Lun didn’t even care about the guy in front of him. Looking at the subtle movements of holding the gun, you can guess that this guy is not even a professional, and the threat is really limited.

Su Lun's peripheral vision was always focused on the "Foil Sword" Hall in the distance.

If we really want to take action, this person must be killed immediately to ensure that there will be no accidents in the battle.

However, just as Su Lun exerted a slight force on his fingers, he was about to control the "invisible zombie" behind him to kill the second-level professional with one knife.

Suddenly!

The other members of the "Knights" who were searching in the camp found something and shouted: "Captain, I found this!"

This urgent shout attracted the attention of everyone in the camp.

Su Lun also looked around and saw that what the man was holding was a broken mechanical arm.

It's not an ordinary mechanical arm, it looks like a severed arm of a living person. However, the tattered bionic skin reflected metallic luster, and there was no bleeding at the fracture, but some damaged complex high-precision mechanical parts.

Others looked puzzled, but Su Lun was very familiar with it and said unexpectedly: "[px-911 mechanical limb]?"

The reason why he is familiar with it is because the puppets in his storage ring have disassembled parts of this kind of mechanical limbs.

Seeing this broken arm, Su Lun also realized that the woman used a broken arm to attract some tracking abilities of the enemy?

Obviously, "Foil" Hall also realized this, and his face became ugly.

Finding the mechanical arm means that they have been "misled" by the wanted criminal, and staying in the camp is probably a waste of time!

Even the man opposite Su Lun had no intention of urging him to take off his mask at this moment.

He was no longer in a hurry to take action.

The immediate boss was assassinated, and Hall was under great pressure. He turned his head and looked at the man in the team wearing a black top silk hat, and asked: "Hudgens, do you still have divination ability?" How long will it take before it can be used again?"

Hearing this, the man named Huggins showed an expression of embarrassment on his face, "There are at least two hours left."

Hall shook his head, "What now?"

Hudgens wanted to say that he couldn't do it, but looking at the leader's livid face, he knew he couldn't refuse: "I'll try."

As he said that, the guy poked the silver-handled palm on the ground, and then formed the Warlock Seal with both hands. In the blink of an eye, a silver hexagram formation appeared under his feet.

Not far away, Su Lungang was wondering what these guys were doing. Suddenly he looked at the starry sky symbol appearing on the hexagram of the man in the top hat, and suddenly realized something: "Divination?"

Although he has never encountered a professional with this extremely rare and mysterious ability in reality, he has seen relevant records in the textbooks of Black Tower Academy.

A diviner is a truly extremely rare profession.

Certain "psychic talents" are required to enter this profession.

There may not be many qualified fortune tellers in the entire Old Lingdun.

However, in the eyes of an alchemist, any ability has a price.

Although the ability to predict the future and predict bad luck is a magical skill, it also comes at a huge cost and is a truly high-risk profession.

The goal of divination is within the ability of the fortune teller. For example, looking for a lost wallet will probably only result in a loss of energy.

But if the target of super divination exceeds his own strength, or touches certain taboos, the loss of lifespan is nothing, but the price may be infinitely magnified.

For example, when divining an item, if you trace its origin and accidentally glimpse an indescribable existence, you will die suddenly.

As Su Lun's thoughts flashed through his mind, the six-pointed star formation under the tall hat man's feet had completely lit up.

What's amazing is that the silver-handled cane that he stood in the center of the formation seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and slowly swayed in a certain direction, as if it was guiding something.

The crutch kept swinging in one direction, but in the end it did not fall.

It seems like something is missing.

But to achieve this step, the fortune teller Huggins seems to have been very strenuous. He was chanting incantations, and his whole body was trembling.

Seeing that the divination yielded no results, he gritted his teeth again and took out a crystal necklace.

As soon as the crystal necklace came out, a light blue light instantly blessed the alchemy formation.

With a "clang" sound, the palm suddenly fell to the ground and pointed to a cave in the southwest.

The necklace also floated, and the triangular crystal pointed in the same direction like an arrow.

But at the same time, the fortune teller Huggins felt as if his soul had been hit by an invisible weight, and he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale. With this mouthful of blood spurting out, he seemed to have aged ten years, and his complexion had obviously faded a lot.

Hall looked at his subordinates spurting blood as if he had expected it, and his expression was not very good, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Chase!"

But before he could say anything more, he called to his men and chased him in the direction pointed by the floating crystal necklace.

In the blink of an eye, the dozen or so people from the "Iron Cavalry Group" hurriedly left the camp.

.......

Seeing the people leaving, Steward Abagong greeted everyone: "Okay, let's go and have a rest. Continue the night watch and don't let down your guard!"

After being made such a fuss, everyone in the transport team looked unhappy.

But after all, the other party is a member of the Umbrella Organization. Even if he is angry, he has to hold it in. The big men like the Hunters cursed a few times and continued to sleep when it was time to sleep and watch the night watch.

Not far away, Su Lun looked at the guys leaving. The wire he was holding loosened, but his eyes gradually deepened.

He originally planned to take action, but to his surprise, the other party ignored him and left directly.

However, he was not grateful for being discovered, but instead felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

"This divination ability is very dangerous..."

Su Lun squinted his eyes, and an idea came to his mind that he was eager to try.

This is probably what Senjou mentioned before, those people with special tracking abilities?

Having such people in the umbrella organization is a great threat to any wanted criminal.

Now that woman is an SS-level wanted criminal, Su Lun feels that she is still an S-level criminal no matter what. If there really is such a mysterious fortune teller, sooner or later there will be a fight.

What's more, now that his abilities and scythe have been exposed, the next time he encounters encirclement and suppression, the people who come may not be so easy to kill.

Thinking of this, Su Lun pondered in his mind: "It's hard to say whether there are any professionals like diviners who are extremely scarce in the umbrella organization... They should all be in the old town of Lingdun. Now in the cave Maybe there are only one or two like this."

Kill one and lose one?

Su Lun raised his brows, and a hint of dangerous amusement suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Now that there are signs of danger, it’s better to nip that danger in the bud...

Thinking of this, the thought immediately turned into action. He controlled the living corpse, quietly touched the back of the tent, then avoided people's eyes, untied the spider spear implant, climbed from the rock wall to the top of the cave, and then left towards the guys of the "Iron Cavalry" chased in the direction.

.......

Although he had only met her once, Su Lun was deeply impressed by that woman. She was calm, rational and decisive.

In her, you can always find some thoughts that can be understood and resonated with each other.

Since the woman chose to hide the severed arm in a transport team she met on the way, she must also know that the enemy has the means of divination and tracking.

Su Lun felt that if he were in that woman's situation at this moment, he would definitely not run away like this, but would ambush the "Iron Cavalry" people somewhere.

After all, if you don’t kill the soothsayer, you can’t even think about being clean.

So... Su Lun chose to catch up, and killing was the alternative plan.

The first choice plan is to wait for the "ambush drama" that he thinks will definitely happen, Dangdang Huangque.

Su Lun's eight-armed spider spear ran very fast on the ceiling, and soon caught up with the people of the "Iron Knights". He deliberately kept some distance away for fear of being discovered. Although I didn't see anyone, I could still hear the running footsteps of those people.

"The pendulum shows the second channel from the left!"

"It's not far away, hurry up and chase!"

"..."

And suddenly, something unexpected happened.

The group of people chased each other and suddenly triggered the explosive device.

There was a loud "boom", air waves and flames came out, the entire cave wall shook violently, and gravel fell like rain flakes.

Immediately afterwards, the sounds of fierce fighting were heard.

"A fight?!"

Su Lun was almost fell off the rock wall by the blast of air. Instead of being surprised, he actually showed an expected joy.

He didn't waste any time and quickly accelerated towards the direction where the noise came from.

In the dark corridor, there was only a faint light.

But from time to time, the metal fire flashed when the sword touched, and the sharp "clang" sound was heard endlessly.

Su Lun's night vision allowed him to capture two figures fighting fiercely. The man holding the sword was naturally Hall, the "Foil Sword" he had seen before. This guy wielded the sword with great precision. The martial arts style of the court rapier has an air of elegance, its body is as light as dancing, and it shows calmness when dodging, but the tip of the sword is pointing, but there is a hidden murderous intention...

On the other side was a one-armed woman with shoulder-length silver hair. She also held a slender sword in her hand, swinging it wide and wide to slash. Upon closer inspection, the woman not only had a broken arm, but also had damage to the bionic skin everywhere on her body, as if she had experienced a fierce battle before.

But even with a broken arm and her physical condition looking very bad, she was still on par with Hall, and even had the upper hand.

Both sides were going back and forth, and the fight was very balanced.

"Second-level melee-type professionals really have ridiculously strong reactions..."

Su Lun hung on the top of the rock wall and watched from a distance, while also secretly observing Hall's fighting habits.

The neural reaction speed of this second-level melee professional has reached a level that can "cleave bullets with a knife." If you really need to be prepared in advance, even if Su Lun has a black sickle in hand, his reaction is not fast enough. It may not be possible to hurt such a person.

He didn't rush to take action, and just hung up at the top of the cave not far away.

Because he knew that if the silver-haired woman dared to ambush, she must be confident of taking action.

......

The explosion just now caught the "Iron Cavalry" by surprise, and six of those ten people are still alive. Leader Hall restrained the silver-haired woman, and these guys were also casting spells and making cold shots.

Su Lun also looked carefully and saw that the fortune teller Huggins was indeed still alive.

This kind of "rare professional" must be the target of key protection. Obviously they also guessed that the woman would be killed again, and the few people alive protected the fortune teller in the center.

Su Lun originally wanted to take action when he found an opportunity and kill Hall to end the battle.

But suddenly, he discovered something unusual.

"Are these people delaying time on purpose?"

Su Lun also saw that Hall knew that he could not kill the wanted criminal "No. 19", so the offensive also restrained its killing momentum and became long and long, completely fighting style.

Don't seek to hurt the enemy, just seek to delay it.

"Strange..."

Su Lun saw this and thought deeply in his heart.

Why are you procrastinating?

Waiting for reinforcements?

...........

The battle continues.

How powerful is "No. 19"?

Since she has been able to escape from the Umbrella Organization's vicious encirclement and suppression battles many times, how could she be held back by a second-level professional?

The purpose of her ambush was very clear, just to kill the "divineer"!

No. 19 saw Hall's purpose of procrastination, so he ignored this guy and suddenly spurted out a stream of boosting air from his feet, heading directly towards the fortune teller.

The figure flashed past.

With a slash of the sword in her hand, a ripple of sword energy that could be seen with the naked eye roared past, and a cold light passed by. Two human heads flew up, and the corpses gushed out like spring water.

The few people who were guarding the fortune teller turned pale with fright, and they fired quickly to stop her from continuing to kill.

However, even the alchemy bullet only fired "clang" sparks on No. 19, and the explosive bomb only knocked her back half a step...

Su Lun’s thoughts were still racing. When he saw those people raising guns in front of him, he didn’t have any trouble in his heart: “[px-911 mechanical limbs] have super high resistance to both physical and demon objects, and the alchemy bullets will not hit the vital points. , there is no way to get on her. And... maybe, there is no 'vital' in her body in the conventional sense!"

He had dismantled and analyzed the functions of this mechanical limb very carefully before. Although many of the technologies were incomprehensible, he also speculated that the "No. 19" in front of him might be mechanical except for the brain and nerves. Or alchemical component replacements.

So for a normal person, most of the weaknesses of the nasal cavity, ear piercings, eye sockets, various bones and joints have been completely eliminated and circumvented from the beginning of the design.

This is a super mechanical warrior that exists purely for fighting and killing!

But after thinking about it, Su Lun was confused again: "Since she is so strong, who could have broken her arm before? A third-level professional?"

Moreover, being chased by a second-tier team, you don’t fight back and have to flee?

Su Lun felt that she might have guessed that there might be stronger pursuers behind, so she didn't waste time killing these people.

Thinking of this, Su Lun narrowed his eyes and murmured: "Sure enough, there are stronger reinforcements on the way..."

.......

No. 19 broke into the crowd and raised a knife with one hand, making "Foil Sword" Hall's face darken.

The second-level swordsman also found the right opportunity and pierced No. 19's damaged limbs with his sword. But it is a machine after all, so it doesn't mean much if it doesn't damage some key components.

There was no emotion at all on No. 19's face, and Su Lun seemed to see his own shadow. Only in this state of absolute calm can one be a truly qualified fighting machine.

In just one encounter, No. 19 had killed all six people, including the fortune teller.

At this time, she ignored Hall who wanted to hold her back. She boosted the airflow under her feet, turned around and ran towards the depths of the cave.

"Escaped?"

Looking at it, Su Lun felt that the matter was probably over here. If it were him, after killing the fortune teller, he would not pay attention to this second-level professional who could not be killed for a while.

Unexpectedly, Hall chased after a few steps and couldn't catch up, so he cursed angrily: "Damn it!"

Then he gritted his teeth and made an incredible move.

Su Lun watched as this guy ran, took out a green potion, and plunged it into his neck without hesitation.

Su Lun's eyelids twitched when he saw this. No matter how he looked at this action, he had a strong sense of déjà vu.

Isn't this what I did when I fought the Smoker before?

Is it possible that this guy is too desperate to be injected with the "X serum" because he doesn't think he can beat him?

It seems that he received some kind of death order. If he doesn't keep people, he probably won't survive if he goes back.

But...

Su Lun dared to inject the serum because he had the "distortion inhibitor medicine". Why did this guy have it?

The next moment, Su Lun saw Hall's body swelled up like the Hulk's transformation, and was surprised: "You want to hold her back even if you risk your life?"

In the blink of an eye, this guy has turned into a [Hateful Warrior]!

It turns out that this is not a pure "X serum", but a potion of hatred.

Hall didn't try to suppress the distortion at all, he just risked his life to hold off No. 19.

Su Lun's eyelids twitched as he looked at it. The ability of those guys in the Black Tower to control people was so terrifying. A second-level professional, just said he would self-destruct?

However, he was more concerned about something else.

Hate warriors?

It seems to be a very good living corpse material...
