Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 149: Suddenly handsome and attractive


 "The concentration of dark spiritual power is at least ten times that of before..."

Su Lun looked at the attribute panel with a complicated look on his face. He couldn't say he felt good about it, nor did he feel bad about it.

 It’s no wonder that the pursuers didn’t dare to pursue him.

 After the mist became thick, dark spiritual power spurted out like spring water and spread everywhere. This is simply not something ordinary people can bear, nor is it a high distortion concentration that a gas mask can filter.

  The normal concentration of dark spiritual power is like the cold wind in winter. It is like a cool breeze entering the body when breathing, and it is slightly cold; but the current concentration is completely like an ice knife, which will make people cut their throats when they breathe.

 But...

Su Lun knew that this value was "dangerous", but his body honestly felt a silky comfort.

 He had actually noticed the changes in dark spiritual power when the mist filled the air, and had been carefully observing the data on his body, just to be afraid of any accidents.

 However, he found that he had no signs of distortion at all.

 Even though the dark spiritual power has reached this terrifying level, he still doesn't feel uncomfortable.

 On the contrary...as he breathed, his own dark spiritual power increased slowly.

 His body is frantically absorbing the special energy in the air, and this energy is also transforming his body.

 Because there is no example to refer to, Su Lun can only judge based on his own feeling: if the data continues to increase and there is no distortion, this should be a good thing.

  He knew that the abnormality in Te's body must be related to the dark spiritual power tolerance increased by the "X serum".

  .....

 Not to mention that the fog outside is so thick that it is impossible to see and walk normally.

 Since there is no sign of distortion, Su Lun is not in a hurry to leave the bunker,

 And...it seems like I can't get out.

 Although he couldn't see it, Su Lun could hear a lot of goosebump-inducing movements coming from all directions after the thick fog filled the air.

 Like the heavy footsteps of a very huge monster walking, thump, thump, thump...

 Like the sound of chewing bones, click, click, click...

 It sounds like the scream of some aberrant monster being bitten to death...

Su Lun heard more and more horrible noises, and simply sealed all the vents, not daring to let out any breath.

 He knew that he seemed to have encountered a phenomenon of large-scale aberrant monster activity similar to a "beast tide"...

 However, Su Lun is in a good mood.

Since I can't go out, I can rest here calmly and recuperate.

 The storage ring contains enough food and water, and the bunker is strong enough, so there is no need to worry about safety for the time being.

 The mist in the ruins is flowing, so this abnormal activity should be temporary.

 Even if a small monster discovered him and rushed into the bunker, thinking that he would be able to protect himself by hating the living zombies and the black scythe.

 At least, the current situation is much better than being chased and intercepted by the Oliver family just now.

 Su Lun got himself some food, and then sat there cross-legged and meditated.

 This meditation lasts one night.

Although there is no distinction between day and night in the ruins, it is obvious that the monsters are much more active during "night time".

 It's daybreak, but the fog shows no sign of dissipating.

 But Suellen feels pretty good.

 Overnight, his body's super healing ability has fully recovered from his injuries. Although his chest still stings slightly when he presses it, the recovery efficiency is already very satisfactory.

 Furthermore, after meditating all night, Su Lun also felt refreshed.

 On the data panel, the upper limit of the dark spiritual power value has soared visibly to the naked eye.

  After becoming a professional, meditating in Old Lingtun for one night will probably increase the upper limit of dark spiritual power by 7 to 8 units. In the ruins of Dawn City, just last night, Su Lun's number increased by more than 100 units!

 Furthermore, there is no sign of distortion or any other negative situation caused by absorbing dark spiritual power quickly enough.

Although Su Lun had known before that the "X serum" would increase the body's tolerance to dark spiritual power, he was also surprised to see this effect.

 I was very careful to meditate again last night. If I absorbed it without any scruples, the value might be doubled several times.

 At this pace of practice, in about a month or so, his dark spiritual power will reach the upper limit of what his body can bear. That would be an exaggerated value that far exceeds the dark spiritual power required by ordinary professionals to advance to the second level.

 From this point of view, this "tide of mist" is not only harmless to him, but is actually an excellent help for his practice.

Su Lun also speculated that the "unidentified creature" from which the serum was originally extracted may be some kind of super-order creature living in such an environment of high and rich dark spiritual power, and its bloodline is very suitable for survival in this environment. Su Lun injected the serum to transform his body, and now he has acquired some of this strange bloodline properties...

 Furthermore, due to the significant increase in dark spiritual power, Su Lun also discovered a good phenomenon, that is, the blue color of his body was fading away at an accelerated rate.

 Because of his omniscient pupil, he can accurately distinguish the changes in the color of his skin.

 Although it was only one night, the changes were almost unnoticeable to the naked eye.

 But the data shows that the fading speed is several times that of yesterday.

 The violent influx of dark spiritual power catalyzed the absorption of the serum, greatly shortening the absorption process.

 Originally it was estimated that it would take at least four to six months to digest the serum, but now it seems that it is no longer needed.

  .....

 The second day, the third day, the fourth day...

 The fog has no intention of dissipating,

 The monsters outside are becoming more and more active.

 Just like that, Su Lun passively stayed in this narrow bunker and never left.

During this period, he also encountered aberrations passing by several times, including groups of small aberrations, and several times large aberrations with terrifying auras. Fortunately, the small aberrations could not destroy the solid bunker and left after a few digs. Although the giant monsters noticed him, they ignored him. It's probably like when humans see a mouse in a small hole on the roadside and stuff it between their teeth without showing any interest. Occasionally, there would be one or two large monsters that smelled the smell and scratched it with their claws out of curiosity, but because the bunker was strong enough, they all got through without any danger.

 Just like this, a month passed without realizing it.

Suellen’s body has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

  .....

 This day, in the bunker.

Suellen is meditating.

 Since the gas mask was of no use, he stopped wearing it.

 However, that face no longer looked like that of the blue-skinned, bald man a month ago. His skin color changed to a normal color, a thick head of hair grew on his head, and his eyebrows also grew.

 Without the dark punk-style smoky makeup, this angular face suddenly looks handsome.

 This is not Su Lun's illusion, but the intuitive data on the attribute panel.

 “My charm value has increased to 12?”

 Su Lun was also surprised when he discovered that the fixed value of charm had changed.

 Then, this month, as he completely digested the "X serum", his charm value also increased from 9 points to 12 points now.

 According to his observation, this data almost never changed as the strength increased. Unless you have a charming talent like the Steam Party Sabine you met before, this stat for a normal person will not exceed 10 points.

 The only explanation is that the serum not only makes the body stronger, but also has the special ability to optimize human appearance.

  He guessed that maybe the indescribable creature that extracted the "X serum" was very good-looking in itself?

Su Lun didn’t pay much attention to it, it wasn’t a bad thing anyway.

 And the appearance has changed, which is exactly what he wanted.

 At least now, he no longer has to shave his head and adopt the dark punk style.

 The previous attire was to conceal his appearance so as not to be recognized by bounty hunters.

 Now that the wanted posters for that bald image have been posted everywhere, it is not appropriate to continue to maintain the image of a bald punk.

 And now my hair has grown out, just in time.

 And with his image, he almost doesn’t have to worry about the original owner’s wanted order. Because Su Lun felt that no one would ever think that he looked like the same person as the original owner, "Fick Regadi".

 Not to mention the earth-shaking changes in temperament, the addition of 3 points of charm to his face is like a completely different face.

 Furthermore, even the data of shoulder width, waist circumference, hip circumference...these body dimensions are completely different from a month ago.

 After completely digesting the "X serum", Su Lun's strength skyrocketed, and his bones became tougher, increasing by two or three times. But instead of becoming a tall and muscular man, his body muscles became more slender and well-proportioned.

 But he also thought it was just right.

 Whether it is a puppeteer or a gunner, muscles that are too large will be more flexible.

 Furthermore, the most exaggerated thing is Su Lun’s current dark spiritual power!

 From the upper limit of 2214 points a month ago, it has become 23332 now, a surge of nearly ten times.

 This is already a very exaggerated number.

  Ordinary professionals need a minimum of about 7,000 points of dark spiritual power to advance to the second level, and they can almost successfully fuse black iron materials to advance; even some demanding silver materials require about 10,000 points. (Stage advancement conditions: material suitability + current level dark spiritual power reaches a certain value)

 But now Suellen has reached an astonishing more than double.

 Even if he meditates using the [Haigam Breathing Method], he feels that there is still room for a slight increase.

Although Su Lun didn’t know what was so special about such a large amount of dark spiritual power, he guessed that it was directly related to the subsequent advancement to a higher level. The stronger the foundation of dark spiritual power at low levels, the easier it will be to advance to higher levels, and the higher the upper limit will be.

 There is another immediate benefit, that is, he is not short of mana for the time being.

 Just by controlling the first-level eight-armed spider lance, he can now maintain the state of out-of-breast gear for almost a long time.

 Using [Wu Attendant], the flames have changed from spreading an inch to a raging flame spreading a foot...

 You can also use the witch's hair to control the puppet, and the distance it can control becomes longer...

  .....

 This month has passed, and the fog around us is gradually dissipating.

 It is estimated that in a few days, this "fog wave" will probably end.

 The food and fresh water prepared in the storage ring are almost exhausted,

 "X serum" has also been absorbed,

 Suellen felt it was time to leave the ruins.

 This ruins is not a good place after all.

Suellen thought that no matter how the large army of the Oliver family that surrounded him stayed, they probably would not stay in the ruins for a month.

 What's more, even if he appeared in front of the bounty hunters, most likely no one would recognize that his handsome face was the previous "S-class wanted criminal Su Lun" with a smoky bald head.

  ......

 This day.

 The fog has almost reached normal levels, and no movement of large aberrations was heard around the bunker.

Su Lun opened the vent and took a closer look. He could see a few two-headed sheep-horned monsters - [Corrupted Sheep-Headed Men] eating leisurely on the misty wall in the distance.

 Eating grass?

 No, they are eating the bones of their prey.

 “Click”...

 “Click”...

 The people who heard it were horrified.

Suellen has been observing them for nearly two days.

 There are about fifty-six of this group of erect sheep-headed monsters. They look docile, but are actually ferocious. It is fast, can jump and jump, and its sharp teeth and sharp mouth can crush rocks easily.

 Especially the sheep-headed monster leader, who is as big as a bull. He is even as strong as a second-level melee professional. The group can easily kill large prey when encircled, so it should not be underestimated.

 Su Lun has the black scythe in hand and his strength has increased dramatically, so he is not afraid of these guys.

 But he didn't want to start a fight as soon as he left the bunker.

 After all, this is the middle of Dawn City, and they are not the only aberrations around here.

 After observing for a moment, these monsters had no intention of leaving.

Su Lun felt that he would have to wait for another day.

 Once they finish eating all the food they caught yesterday, they will probably leave.

  .....

 Observed for a moment,

Suellen closed the ventilation window and got himself some food.

 Break the brown bread into pieces, add a little of his homemade "instant noodle seasoning packet", and chew it down.

 However, this is just an act that occasionally makes my mouth feel dull and fills my stomach.

 The most important source of nutrition is direct injection of nutrient solution.

 This month, digesting the "X serum" to increase the physical body requires a lot of energy, and it relies entirely on these nutrient solutions to survive.

Suellen simply ate.

 Then he took out the puppet book and started to read it.

During this time, he carefully read through the puppet classics in the trophies and improved his puppet skills.

 This is when he realized that there are so many tricks and shortcuts for puppet control...

 Puppet players and professional puppet masters are completely different things.

 Looking at it, he looked at the golden plantation drawing [Qiansi·Big Lion Song] in the pile of books.

 Have been coveting this thing for a month.

 Not only did he have the blueprints in his hand, but he also had the main material [The Head of the Weeping Witch] and even the ingredients for refining from the previous trophies.

 But Su Lun looked at the drawings that he had carefully studied no less than ten times, and still felt helpless.

 He now encountered the same problem he had when he obtained the blueprint for the [Eight-Armed Spider Spear].

Although he has continued to learn and improve during this period, his level of refining farming equipment is already not low.

 But the second-level gold blueprints + dark gold materials are not at the level of a master, so I dare not touch them at all.

 He was really not sure, and he didn't dare to waste the materials by messing around.

 Then I thought of "Mr. Black".

 It's a pity...that mysterious figure is probably in the old London black market at the moment.

 Su Lun did not worry too much about the drawings and continued to read the classics attentively.

 But as he turned over the pages, his ears suddenly stood up, and he whispered: "The fog has dissipated, how come the 'big guy' appears again?"

 Then, like an earthquake, the ground began to tremble.

 He is used to this situation. Every time a large monster passes by, it will make this noise. This bunker will be like a speaker lying on the ground, which can be heard very clearly.

 But...it sounds different this time.

 “Is this a large monster fighting?”

Su Lun immediately noticed the rapid "bang" and "bang" sounds. It didn't look like a monster was walking, but like it was fighting?

 And it’s not the small movement of prey, but the movement of a fierce battle between evenly matched enemies!

 Fighting between large monsters is very dangerous. These monsters can breathe wind, spit fire, and pour water... The fact that the ancient buildings in the city were so badly damaged is directly related to these monsters.

 Thinking of this, Su Lun did not dare to be careless and opened the ventilation window and looked out.

 A huge aberration came into view.

 But what surprised Su Lun even more was the "opponent" who fought against the monster!

 Originally he thought it was two monsters fighting, but at first glance...

 How many humans are these monsters that keep wailing? !

 Looking again, Su Lun's eyes froze, and he was filled with disbelief: "How dare someone dare to pay attention to a super-level monster?"
