Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 195: Desperate situation


 PS. Change first and then read again after 20 minutes

The hunting group in Reyes's long house did not have enough people and the movement was not fast.

 Ten days later, we arrived at [Auroville Central Prison].

 Looking from a distance, it was a strange building with a five-pointed star, and part of it collapsed. From the appearance, it looks like a huge five-pointed star formation.

 “Commander, a cursed space was discovered in the ruins over there, covering a very large area. The assessment is S+, the energy fluctuation is S+, and the space is stable”

 "The building should be a prison. It is initially determined to be a large complex cursed space. High-level professionals are requested to cooperate in the investigation"

 "It has been confirmed that the entrance to the space is temporarily inaccessible and requires special opening conditions"

  “”

 Due to the fierce fighting for several days, most of the original team of four to five hundred people was lost, leaving only fifty or sixty injured soldiers. The vanguard forces of the Cross were almost completely wiped out, and the elite troops brought by Lena also suffered heavy losses. Of the more than ten second-level professionals in the team, six are left.

 Even the three members of the supervising team who never participated in the battle died one after another, and the inner city military sent new ones to supplement them.

 No one can evacuate until the mission is completed.

 Looking at the black steaming space vortex on the prison ruins in the distance, everyone had despair on their faces.

 They have never seen such a large space entrance.

 The only good news is that within a certain range of the cursed space, there are usually no aberrations or abyss monsters.

 Not long after,

 The old man in light rune armor led the exploration team back.

 The old man is naturally the only third-level professional butler Anthony in the team.

 With insufficient manpower, second- and third-level professionals have to personally lead teams to explore dangerous routes to reduce casualties.

 Anthony discussed the investigation situation with the person supervising the team,

 Those guys used military communicators to report the intelligence to their superiors as usual.

 The team camped where they were

 Because there were not many survivors, the team members chose a sturdy building that was easy to defend and built a circular camp using robotic arm equipment and armor.

 Now that they heard the order to set up camp, everyone began to take out their marching tents from their backpacks and began to set them up.

 Anthony found Reyna who was setting up her own tent.

Her personal maid also died in the three-day battle. The eldest lady does not need anyone to serve her now, and is doing everything by herself.

  Anthony reported in a heavy tone: "Miss, the entrance to the cursed space is temporarily inaccessible. It should be a space that requires special triggering conditions to enter. Marjorie's team is trying to crack it"

 “Got it.”

 Leina looked very calm after hearing this, and her work of setting up the tent did not stop after hearing the news.

 Anthony looked at the changes in his young lady, and his eyes flashed with relief, but then he also expressed his worries: "The young lady initially determined that it is a 'T-level' space. This time, we may not be able to get through."

 “Hmm.”

 Hearing this, Reina paused for a moment.

 But she seemed to have been mentally prepared. Her tone was firm but indifferent, and she said: "If it is really T-level, there is no point in testing it in batches. After finding a way to enter, I will personally participate in the exploration this time."

 Anthony glanced at her with a complicated expression, "Yes, Miss."

 They all know it well,

 No one can disobey or escape the orders of the Duke's Palace.

 If you don’t continue to explore, you will definitely not survive even if you escape, and it will definitely affect the entire Jiulingdun family.

 Leina had been mentally prepared for the entire army to be annihilated from the moment she set out.

 This moment will come sooner or later.

 Leina did not forget to comfort the loyal old housekeeper, "Grandpa Anthony, maybe the situation is not that bad."

 “Hey”

 Anthony sighed slightly, turned and left without saying anything.

At this time, Reina thought of something and turned her head to look at Mr. Zorro, who was setting up a tent in the corner. He had always been very lonely.

Thinking about it, she walked over and said hello: "Mr. Zorro."

 "Zorro" responded: "What's the matter, Miss Reina?"

 The full-face gas mask on his face was very rough and mechanically modified. His appearance was not clear at all. His voice sounded hoarse through the canister.

 “Thank you for taking care of me along the way.”

 Leina bowed to Enzo. She knew very well that Zorro had taken great care of her along the way.

 Otherwise, she would have been seriously injured in the battle with the third-level [three-headed python] a few days ago. At that time, Butler Anthony was restrained by the monster, and all her personal guards died in the battle. If it weren't for Mr. Zorro, she would have been burned to death by the corrosive gas sprayed by the monster.

 Sure enough, my aunt said he was very powerful, and he was really very powerful.

 After bowing, Reina continued: "Mr. Zorro, what I want to tell you is that after I find out how to enter the cursed space, I will lead everyone inside to enter. You are not a contracted member of our family, there is no need. Come with us"

 “No, you don’t have to be so polite.”

 Zorro shook his head, his tone not sounding as heavy as Reina's, "After all, Sister Senjo asked me to take good care of you."

 “You have done a good enough job, thank you very much.”

 Leina thanked her sincerely again and told the truth, "But you don't have to die with me."

 Zorro listened to this, shook his head, and seemed to be smiling, "No, what I want to say is that even if I want to leave, I can't leave."

 After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Besides, I don't plan to leave either."

 “???”

 Leina was suspicious when she heard this.

 She was about to say something, but at this moment, a hurried report came from the communicator.

 "Miss, there is a large group of people on our left approaching us quickly to see the flag. They are members of the Clark family!"

 "Miss, there is also a group of people coming to our right, they are from the Oliver family!"

 At this statement, the whole camp immediately became nervous

The Dawn Ruins are already very large, but dozens of teams are also opening up wasteland at the same time. In fact, each team is not too far apart.

 And Lena's team was drawn on the 16th, the Oliver family on the 15th, and the Clark family on the 17th.

Although it is obscured by fog and ruins and no one can be seen, it can be distinguished from the sound of gunfire and the sounds of fighting that the several teams are not far apart. Like a divided cake, the closer to the core urban area, the closer the distance between each team will be.

 In fact, a few days ago, Reina and the others discovered the movements of the two teams on the left and right.

 Those families have recruited enough people, and they can divide them into several waves to open up wasteland, and the progress is very fast.

 The hunting team is in front, and the main team of young masters and ladies is behind.

 Just a few minutes ago, the team of the Oliver family was several kilometers away from Rena's team.

 Young Master Danze is enjoying afternoon coffee leisurely in the tent.

Compared to the fierce fighting on the front line, although they also suffered some small-scale monster attacks here, it was nothing.

 After all, there is also the vice-president of the Hunting Guild, the famous third-level professional "Wind and Thunder Sword King" Nero Redgrave.

Since being attacked by Su Lun last time, Danze has never dared to stay too far away from this third-level professional.

 He and the bearded swordsman were drinking coffee and playing chess on a black and white checkered chessboard while chatting.

 “Mr. Nero, what do you think of the strength of the SS wanted criminal Suellen?”

 “Hard to say”

 “It’s hard to say?”

 "I carefully observed the previous sneak attack, and Su Lun's real strength was only at the second level level. But the displacement ability of his eight-armed spider spear in the ruins was excellent. Even if I wanted to capture It’s not easy to live in either”

 “Just being able to run.”

 "It's not that simple. Now that it's confirmed that that guy is related to the people from that reactionary organization, it shouldn't be underestimated. Besides, if you didn't find out, then hasn't the guy shown his second-level advanced ability?"

  "There are only a few advancement options for a puppet master. That guy is not very young yet, but he is so proficient in puppet control skills. At level 8 in his professional ability, he chose the direction of 'puppet control skills' to advance. After all, you As you know, puppet control requires a lot of time and energy to practice."

 “Well, that makes sense.”

 "In my opinion, the SS wanted criminal Su Lun just relied on the scythe of the forbidden object in his hand to carry out his crimes. That guy was really lucky, and he actually mastered a living corpse sacrifice that could avoid the backlash of the curse of the forbidden object. Refining secret techniques. However, now that I have completely stabilized the second-level realm and mastered this [Steinitz's chessboard], if Su Lun comes again, I can guarantee that he will never come back."

 "Although I think Master Danze, you should be more careful. But with this cursed object and the cooperation of [Puppet Theater], there is really no reason to lose when facing a second-level professional"

 When Danze heard this, a smug smile appeared on his face.

 The two were chatting, and at this moment, a subordinate came to report.

 "Master, there is an order from the Black Tower, asking us to send people to help the team in Reyes's room to open a large cursed space"

 When the two of them heard this, their expressions changed.

  Danze turned around and said, "Mr. Nero, are you interested in going and taking a look?"

 “Of course.”

 Nero narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Since the Reiss's side has offended, they must eradicate it. Now that the Black Tower side has acquiesced in your behavior, Miss Reina and Old Anthony must We can't let them leave the ruins alive. Otherwise, there won't be such a good chance next time. That guy Carnegie Reyes is very strong. He survived such a split last time, but he really can't do it this time. Completely destroyed. No matter how weak the sick tiger is, it will still be a big trouble."

  Danze smiled and said, "I think so too."

 Leina has also known for a long time that the advance team of the Clark family on the left has far surpassed their team in opening up wasteland, and has been keeping people's attention.

 Now these guys suddenly changed their route, obviously they had bad intentions.

Sure enough, not long after, a hunting team of several hundred people came out of the mist in the distance.

 Looking at the family crest engraved on the equipment, it is clear that they are the elite team of the Clark family.

 The young man at the head of the Clark family, wearing a brand new hunting uniform, is naturally the eldest young master, Eli Clark.

 The young man looked at the dozens of remnants of Reina, and his tone was full of teasing: "Hey, Miss Reina, it seems that your situation is not good?"

  The visitor obviously had bad intentions. Butler Anthony had already been protecting Reina. He looked at the three bodyguards around Young Avery, his pupils shrank slightly, and he said: "Be careful, miss, that's Old Lington." The three elders of the Occult Science Association, Ice, Thunder, and Earth, are very powerful elemental warlocks, and they also have powerful cursed objects in their hands. With their cooperation, I am not sure that I can take advantage in a short time."

 An archer with a blue longbow, a woman in a robe holding a thunder-marked staff, and a punkish man with green hair.

 The three of them all have an outstanding aura, and the weapons in their hands are all extraordinary.

 Leina raised her eyes, turned to look coldly at the group of people approaching her, and responded: "What are you doing here?"

Avery led the group of people over and said lazily: "I received a notice from the top of the Black Tower that you may not be able to handle this cursed space, so I will bring someone over to help you take a look. ”

 Originally, there was no need for him to come in person, but now that it sounds like it’s Reina’s team, this Young Master Avery will naturally come to add insult to injury.

 Leina frowned slightly when she heard this. She glanced at the three white-helmeted combat supervisors not far away and seemed to be asking.

  The leader of the black-faced war supervisor responded calmly: "The orders from above are only to supervise your land reclamation. We will not interfere in or interfere with matters between your families."

 After saying that, the three combat supervisors deliberately kept some distance apart, as if to express their attitude: you fight, don't accidentally hurt us.

 Having no hope that these people could mediate, Reina heard this and shouted: "Everyone obeys the order. Anyone who comes near the camp will be killed without mercy!"

 At the command, both sides set up their guns almost simultaneously.

 "Crack, click, click" was the sound of intensive firearm loading.

 The number of people is nearly ten times different, and the Clark family has an absolute advantage.

 Young Master Avery seemed completely unafraid of the guns pointed at him, and motioned for his men to put down their guns.

 After all, in this situation, even if the opponent shoots first, they have no chance of winning.

 He looked at Reina and continued to challenge: "Hey~ Miss Reina seems to be in a bad mood"

  It seems to have been agreed upon. As soon as the Clark family arrived, Oliver's Danzig also came out with the team.

 The young man Danze looked at the two groups of men at war with each other and gloated: "Tsk, tsk, it seems that it was not a coincidence that I came here?"

 Beside him, there was also a girl with heavy makeup who looked very similar to Rena.

 Surprisingly, it is Betty Reyes, the second wife of the Reyes family and the fiancée of Danzig.

 This man also played a major role in bringing down the long house this time.

 She looked at Reina and gloated: "Sister Reina, it's been a long time."

 The two teams totaled nearly a thousand people, and they were all enemies.

 With this situation, it seems that Reina and her group may not be able to enter the cursed space, and they will be destroyed outside.

 Young Master Ai Li pressed forward step by step and said, "Miss Lena, do we want to talk now?"

 Leina looked at the enemy who was already fifty meters away, without any fear, and pulled the trigger.

 “Bang!”

 Gunshots sounded.

 The bullet hit Avery's feet, and white smoke came out.

 Leina raised the gun and said calmly: "If you get closer, the next shot will be your head."

 Perhaps they had predicted the trajectory of the bullet, and Avery's bodyguards didn't even raise their eyelids.

Although Ai Li was frightened, the sneer on his face was even worse. In a blink of an eye, he looked at the group of guards around Reina and said an intriguing sentence: "If you don't want to live, don't you do it for yourself?" Do you think about it?"

 When these words came out, it seemed to be some kind of secret code.

At this moment, the second-level captain named Preet Keith suddenly led more than a dozen of his subordinates to distance themselves.

 Seeing this, the old butler Anthony shouted loudly: "Plit, what are you doing!"

  Napreet looked at Reina and said: "Miss Reina, I'm sorry. I have paid a lot for the Rais family, but I don't want to die here"

 Obviously, these people were bribed.

 At this point in the undercover investigation, there is no need to continue.

Whether it’s the cursed space in front of us or the predicament here, staying in the team in Reyes’s long room seems to be certain death.

 As they spoke, they stood guard with guns and walked out of the constructed camp.

 Leina's team originally didn't have many people, but now there were more than ten people missing, and the gap in the camp's defense immediately appeared.

 The most critical thing is the blow to morale. Once these people leave, their eyes are filled with resentment and despair.

 Old housekeeper Anthony wanted to kill the traitor, but he was surrounded by coveting enemies and did not dare to act rashly.

 Leina said nothing and did not change much as the situation got worse.

 Her hand holding the gun remained steady and unshaken.

 At this time, not far away, the sarcasm in the eyes of Young Master Avery became even more intense, and he asked again: "Now, has Miss Reina changed her mind?"

The situation of the head of Reyes, at this moment, has fallen into a desperate situation.

 Leina did not turn her head to look, and said calmly to the remaining guards around her: "If there are still people who want to leave now, I won't blame you."

 She knew very well that the other party came to destroy Reyes' long house.

 Surrender? It serves no purpose other than being humiliated.

 After a pause, she said decisively: "But if you stay, prepare to fight to the death with me!"

 Hearing this, the morale that had been low just now due to the rebellion of the cadres suddenly boiled.

 The guards gathered around Rena, looking like they were about to fight to the death.

 “Miss, we won’t leave!”

 “I swear to live and die with my family!”

 “Yes! I swear to live and die with my family! Fight to the end!”

  “”

 The crowd was excited, and the momentum of dozens of people was like a blazing fire, and they were stunned to compete with the nearly a thousand enemies surrounding them.

 And the old butler Anton seemed to have unlocked some secret technique. Suddenly, horns appeared on his head, his bones crackled, and his size skyrocketed into a humanoid goat nearly two meters tall with gnarled muscles.

 Looking at this group of people, the masters from the Oliver and Clark families across from them frowned. Even Nero, the third-level professional "Wind and Thunder Sword King", looked solemn.

  He looked at the old goat who suddenly became energetic. He didn't know what he thought of, and murmured: "Anthony the "Devil Sheep", the champion of the Old Lington Fighting Competition twenty years ago. In this state, It’s been such a long time coming. ”

 Three-level professionals working hard is no joke.
