Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 183: The secret of the underground city (please subscribe)
Qianjo is taking a shower.
Su Lun had nothing to do in bed, so he simply took out the alchemy classics and started reading.
Now he spends almost all his free time on digesting knowledge.
This is also a habit he developed before time travel. Reading can calm his mood.
Not long after, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped suddenly.
Qianjou walked out in a loose bathrobe. There was naturally a vacuum inside. Looking up, you could see the white deep V on her chest. I have to say that melee-type professionals do have impressive figures.
"Hoo~"
She walked to the full-length mirror and let out a long breath of pleasure, "I finally felt comfortable"
The smooth green hair is not restrained and does not look so sinister.
Qiantiao pulled the towel on the hanger, tilted his head and wiped his wet hair. As soon as he raised his hand, both the wide cuffs and the collar were opened, revealing a large area of spring.
However, both people in the room were calm.
Su Lun looked at his book, glanced at it, and then narrowed his eyes.
There was a sound of water in the shower just now, so the two didn't elaborate. Now that they were free, Senjou continued the previous topic, "Boy Su Lun, I heard that you have an immunity to energy [Hypnos' Darkness of the Night] Sickle]’s puppet? Mr. Black’s plan is that it’s best to take your puppet with him.”
"Well, that's a kind of living corpse."
This information is on the wanted order, so there is nothing I can't borrow.
Furthermore, Su Lun has used Hatred so many times, and a polymath like Mr. Hei has probably already guessed the origin of this living corpse.
As he spoke, he thought of something else and said: "But the corpse is a little troublesome to control. If you are not a puppet master, it will be difficult. Moreover, it will take a lot of practice to accurately control the sickle's slashes."
Although Su Lun felt that Mr. Hei and the others were very strong, they could not effectively use an unfamiliar forbidden object.
Hearing this, Senjo glanced in the mirror.
She happened to meet Su Lun's questioning look and said, "Mr. Hei said that you might be interested in going to see it. So actually I'm here to lend you someone."
"Lend me???"
When Su Lun heard this, a voice in his heart instinctively responded for him.
No, I'm not interested!
Although I don’t know why Mr. Hei and the others wanted to intercept and kill the little princess of the Duke’s Palace, the battle must have been extremely dangerous. Even the leader of the Umbrella Organization came secretly to stand in front of her. I can imagine that there must be many top experts around the little princess.
Moreover, the Black Tower is a very special place.
The top chaebols are located in the inner city. No matter how strong they are, they have their upper limit.
But now that Su Lun knew that the Black Tower was a passage to the upper world, he knew that the Duke's Mansion had a bottomless depth that was definitely beyond his imagination.
Otherwise, given the strength of Mr. Hei and his group, what big family in the inner city can't be bullied without thinking?
Now that Wo is still hiding, he must be afraid of the Black Tower.
This battle must be a fierce battle between top professionals.
Su Lun is very self-aware.
He is a little shrimp who has just entered the second level. Although he has some skills, he is not able to make a fool of himself in that kind of situation.
Even the aftermath of a top professional's battle is enough for him to drink.
You can borrow a sickle
Borrowing people
Wait, what did Mr. Black say?
Su Lun thought of something in an instant and was not in a hurry to express his position.
He looked at Qian Jiao and asked doubtfully: "Did Mr. Hei say that?"
"Yes. Although I don't think you want to go. But Mr. Hei said that after telling you our plan, you should want to go"
Qianjo glanced at him.
After a pause, he said something that would shock anyone who heard it, "After all, we are going to intercept and kill a real super-powerful man this time. According to ancient sayings, that person should be Fifth level professional!"
"Level 5?!"
When Su Lun heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then realized what she was expressing.
This was indeed unexpected for him.
The strongest known masters in Old Town are now at the third level, such as the three gang bosses in the outer city, the presidents and vice-presidents of the major trade unions, and the top masters in the inner city are all at the third level.
What is the situation at the fifth level?
According to the classics unearthed from the ruins, the ancient alchemists definitely did not stop at the third level.
After all, the owner of the Dawn Ruins, Sir Isaac from a thousand years ago, was known as a "demigod".
Hearing Qianjou’s words.
Su Lun was surprised for a moment, but the actual first reaction in his heart was: How many alchemy fragments can a fifth-level professional harvest?
Hearing this, he immediately became interested!
Not just the amount of knowledge, but the level of understanding at the legal level.
It also means vision!
"Linear equation of one variable" is already difficult for primary school students, but for middle school and high school students, isn't it an introductory question?
This rule also applies in the field of alchemy.
A lot of super-level knowledge cannot be understood without crossing certain level thresholds.
Su Lun feels this very deeply now.
When he was in the first level before, it was very difficult to skip the level and learn the knowledge of second level runes. It was difficult to understand and understand clearly. But now that I have advanced, many previously difficult knowledge can be understood almost at a glance, and the difficulty of learning has been reduced by at least several times!
It is conceivable that if the soul of a fifth-level professional was stripped away and he really understood the knowledge related to the law, what would happen to Su Lun's learning progress?
Not to mention whether he can harvest the knowledge fragments of the finished product, Su Lun feels that he is only gaining "eyesight". If he wants to understand and learn other second-level and third-level alchemy knowledge, wouldn't it be enough just at a glance?
Ultra-level knowledge has been monopolized by the Black Tower. This is impossible to harvest no matter how many third-level professionals are harvested!
If it were a group of third-level enemies, he really didn't want to go.
After all, it would be strange if there were not ten or eight third-level people around the little princess.
Mr. Hei will no longer be able to take care of them. If he really has to face one of them, Su Lun is not sure that he will be able to survive from the hands of a third-level professional.
But now I hear it,
It turns out,
They were not trying to kill the little princess, but a fifth-level guard?
"How strong must Mr. Hei and the others be?"
When Su Lun heard Qian Jiao telling them their plan, he instantly felt that he had underestimated the strength of the "Mirror Organization".
But it’s a sigh of relief. He is indeed very interested in this plan!
If Mr. Hei and his friends dare to take action, they must be sure to move them!
"It looks like you've decided to go."
Qianjiao caught the change in Su Lun's expression and said lightly.
Su Lun nodded: "Yes."
"Just decide."
Hearing this, Qiantiao didn't say much.
At this moment, she had wiped her hair, looked at Su Lun with the big letters lying across the bed, and complained: "Hey, Su Lun, boy, move over, okay? It's just a bed, you spread it out like this Come on, can you leave some room for me?"
Su Lun's thoughts were already wandering, and he was thinking about the gains after peeling off the fragments of the fifth-level powerhouse.
Hearing this, he glanced at the disheveled Senjou.
This big boss seems to be really planning to squeeze in with him.
The gambling-addicted young woman didn't mind, and he certainly didn't mind either.
"Oh."
Su Lun responded, then moved his buttocks, leaving half of the bed out. Then, unexpectedly, as soon as he started to move, he suddenly felt a sharp sword energy passing by him.
There was a "swish" sound, and the movement was very soft, like the sound of a sharp knife slashing.
Looking again, a large bed is divided into two parts from the middle.
Because the knife was so fast, even the sheets and quilts on the bed were not deformed. The cuts were smoothly cut in two, leaving a wide gap in the middle.
""
Su Lun looked at it with a hint of helplessness on his lips.
Just now he saw Senjo drawing his sword clearly, but he didn't dodge. It was obvious that this big guy was scaring himself, probably in revenge for the teasing he had just said in the bath.
But fortunately, this mattress is independently supported by countless springs, and it did not collapse when cut in half.
"Okay, sleep."
Qianjou looked at Su Lun who was not frightened, and pursed his lips, feeling bored.
She didn't regard herself as an outsider at all, and lay happily on the other half of the bed.
Erlang's legs tilted up, and his white thighs were exposed
Since he was going to join the war, Su Lun naturally wanted to ask more about the situation.
He turned to look at the other half of the bed and asked, "Sister Senjo, when will we set off?"
"I don't know, wait for notification."
Qianliao didn't even open his eyes, and responded lazily: "Mr. Hei and the others will handle the plan, I'm only responsible for fighting."
She seems not to care about the details of the plan at all. Professional people do professional things, and conspiracies can be left to wise men like Mr. Hei.
The two slept in the same room, and there was no awkward atmosphere.
Thinking that they were going to surround and kill the fifth-level professionals, Su Lun did have a lot of curiosity in his heart, such as their strength.
Qianjou didn't treat her as an outsider, and Su Lun naturally didn't treat her as an outsider either. He asked directly: "Sister Qianjou, what level of strength are you at now?"
After pondering for a moment, Qianjou slowly uttered three words, "It's hard to say."
Su Lun: "Hard to say?"
Qianjou suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling and thought for a while, without hiding it from Su Lun, "I broke through the third level half a year ago. But because of the second awakening of talent and some special inheritance, the combat power is more The general third level is much stronger. If you really want to say it, it can barely be considered a fourth level."
"Oh."
Listening, Su Lun looked a little strange.
These words tonight really refreshed his understanding of the world.
Su Lun was still thinking about the concept of the fourth level, but at this time, Qian Jiao took the initiative to speak: "Aren't you curious why we want to intercept and kill the fifth level guard commander?"
Su Lun originally thought that this might involve some secret, and it was not easy to pry into it.
But now she took the initiative to mention it and asked: "Why?"
Qianjo said: "To advance to the fourth-level profession, you need a special thing [Sun God Stone]. The underground world without sunlight will not produce that kind of special energy crystal. And those super-level professions from outside the tower They may be carried on their bodies, and their corpses can also be aggregated. And if we want to break through the black tower's blockade, we must be powerful enough. Now, there is still a long way to go."
The tone was very calm.
But Su Lun heard a hint of heaviness.
I don’t know if it’s because he plans to join the war, but he feels that Senjo’s attitude towards him is obviously different.
Maybe an ally?
In the past, she was just laughing and joking, but now she chose to reveal to Su Lun some top secrets that only a few people knew.
She asked again: "Want to hear some secrets that may cause trouble?"
Su Lun heard her serious tone and thought for a moment before replying: "I think so."
Qianjo looked at the ceiling, his eyes a little wandering, and he started talking directly.
"When you left Jiulington, didn't I tell you to get stronger?"
"Yes, remember."
"Actually, I just don't want you to bear the kind of pressure too early, just like when I first came into contact with the truth, I was really desperate."
""
“When you find that the world you live in is a big prison, everything you pursue seems to be meaningless. The black tower has a desperate power. So no matter how hard you try, you can only stay in it forever. Survive in a dark dungeon. What's the point of life then? Until I met the 'Mirror'"
After saying this, the gambling-addicted young woman suddenly turned around.
She supported her head with her hands, looked at Su Lun and smiled: "You are doing very well. I have heard news about you all the time, and I know that you are getting stronger all the time."
""
Su Lun listened quietly.
He has never seen Senjo look so serious.
Although she smiled.
Qianjou continued to talk.
"Do you know how Old Rington came to be?"
She asked and answered herself.
"About a hundred years ago, someone found the Black Tower through an ancient map. That person was Raphael I, the grandfather of the current Grand Duke Raphael. At that time, Old Town was in ruins , without any human beings. Then, they filled in a large number of war slaves and prisoners from the outside world. The slaves were cleared of their memory of the outside world, and then they began to colonize and multiply in the underground world, and there was a new order."
"In fact, there is essentially no difference between the plutocrats in the inner city and the civilians in the outer city. In the final analysis, everyone is a 'miner' under Archduke Raphael, and they have mined this thousand-year-old mine for generations on behalf of the Duke's Palace. It’s just a treasure from ancient ruins.”
"Those inner city plutocrats think the wealth is in their hands? Haha, they can't escape this prison. Everything they have belongs to the Black Tower."
""
This news is indeed very sad to hear.
But Su Lun is a time traveler, so it is not difficult to accept.
Ever since No. 19 learned that his predecessor was sent from outside the Black Tower, he had guessed that there was an underground world.
Hearing this, he asked: "Can't we reveal the truth about this matter?"
With so many people in Old Lingdun, if they really wanted to have a revolutionary uprising, it would be a terrifying force.
Hearing this, Senjo shook his head.
"There was an uprising fifty years ago. At that time, the rebels all invaded the Black Tower. Then, despair began. Without warning, a group of super masters came down from the upper levels and without any effort The rebels who had the top professionals killed were unable to resist and were quickly cleared. In the end, hundreds of thousands were massacred in the turmoil. All those involved in the uprising were massacred for 'rebellion'."
Turns out I tried it
When Su Lun heard this, he could already think of the scene at that time.
A group of players in their 20s and 30s went to attack the tower, and then a bunch of level 50s and 60s wave SS appeared in the tower.
Shuashua raised his sword and immediately wiped out the group.
This matter seemed to touch on some unpleasant past events of Qian Tiao. She frowned slightly and said: "There may be some old people in Old Lingdun City who still remember this matter, but no one dares to repeat it. Mention it. Once the people under the umbrella organization know a word about this topic, they will immediately be in danger of annihilation."
"If everyone in Old Lingdun knows the truth, the only consequence is that the Black Tower will send top powerhouses to clean the entire 'prison'. And then send a group of people over. To them, the lives of the miners are not important at all. It’s valuable.”
"So, you know why we did that, right?"
After listening to Qiantiao's story, Su Lun also showed deep thought.
For ordinary people, this is really disappointing.
Advancing to the fourth level requires the [Sun God Stone] that can only be produced on the ground, which means that people in the cave can only reach the third level.
If there is a fifth level, there may be six, seven or eight levels.
Su Lun has no idea about professionals of that level.
Thinking about it, this is probably the difference between ants and elephants?
There are so many ants that they might kill a statue.
But in the world above the Black Tower, there are countless elephants and maybe dinosaurs?
It’s no wonder that Mr. Hei and the others want to intercept and kill the fifth-level commander this time.
The lessons of the uprising fifty years ago have taught them that numbers are useless, and that top strength is the key to victory or defeat.
If Senjou and the others could advance to the fourth level, they might have a chance to break through the shackles.
