Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 214: Some world background
Su Lun has seen Mr. Jing's actions, and also knows that she has a weird displacement method that is not inferior to spatial displacement.
It's like the projection of light and shadow on a mirror. When it shines over, people are here.
I don’t know how far it can move, but it definitely won’t take long to get from Old Town.
Su Lun knew that Mr. Jing was probably here.
I even guessed that she had been there for a while and was watching the show.
But just because it was a guess, I felt uneasy.
What if you don’t come?
The enemy's murderous intention was as real as ever, and Su Lun had to fight with all his strength.
But if you are fishing with your own body, someone will eventually collect the net
Su Lun had this kind of voice, and Milo was also frightened, secretly saying that there was indeed a helper.
He wanted to kill Su Lun quickly to complete the mission...
It turned out that the person coming was more terrifying than I expected.
After that voice, the air around him suddenly turned sticky, making him feel as if he was in a quagmire, and he felt a deeper and deeper sense of despair.
This technique can suppress even a fifth-level strength assassin like him. How terrifying is this level?
Why are there such terrifying professionals underground? !
Thoughts flashed through my mind.
Without any hesitation, Milo turned around and ran away.
But,
How could he be allowed to escape?
Since Su Lun chose to lead him into this deserted cave, he wanted to fight without being discovered.
Mr. Jing can take action without any scruples.
Before, Mr. Jing could not take action casually because he was afraid of exposing himself.
It's not that the people in the Black Tower know, but that the fallen angel notices.
Now that Pestoya's hidden danger has been completely resolved, there is no need to worry about it anymore.
As long as you kill them cleanly, it won't be a big problem.
Seeing the enemy escape, Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief. The wounds on his body were covered with flesh and blood, and even bones could be seen in several places, which was really scary.
But as long as he doesn't die on the spot, it's not a big problem.
With a pinch of the Warlock Seal, the green six-pointed star of Life Alchemy lit up and dropped dozens of curse crystals. Whether toxins or wounds, they were all being healed quickly.
Su Lun is particularly skilled in this kind of first-aid technique of "money to extend life".
Since Mr. Jing took action himself, there is no suspense in the subsequent battle.
Su Lun waited for a while and heard the movement gradually getting smaller, so he followed the traces.
He is not going to join in the fight, but is waiting to collect the corpse.
Sure enough, when he waited, he saw that the assassin just now had turned into a corpse. The wounds on the corpse were horrific, with sharp shards like broken glass stuck everywhere, as if it had been delayed.
When Su Lun came, he happened to look at Mr. Jing in a cloak and said hello: "Mr. Jing."
Mr. Jing glanced at him and nodded, "Yes."
It’s just that I didn’t know Mr. Jing’s identity before. Facing this top professional who may have lived for a thousand years, Su Lun always felt a sense of awe in his heart.
But I heard from Pestoya that her name was "Ophelia". After confirming her identity, although the respect was still there, the sense of mystery was gone.
After all, in terms of seniority, the person in front of me
He has to call this "senior sister"!
If you guessed correctly, Mr. Mirror's real name is "Ophelia Fei Isaac". She is Sir Isaac's eldest daughter and Pestoya's biological sister!
Su Lun still remembers that on the first day he traveled back in time, in the cursed space of Storm Manor, he saw the family photo in the study room with this name on it.
Later Pestoya invited him to the "Bloody Banquet". At that time, three people who were important to her at the dinner table were made into dolls. In addition to Sir Isaac and Seria, there is also a young lady, this one.
Su Lun didn't expect it before, but she didn't expect that she really lived for a thousand years.
Because Su Lun was accepted as a disciple by Seria, his seniority suddenly reached a high level, and he was the same generation as Mr. Jing.
The relationship is still very close.
The shouting at the top of your lungs probably means you can call your parents if you can’t fight, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about
Mr. Jing kept the body, naturally waiting for Su Lun to harvest the memories.
Su Lun was not polite and walked over directly, swallowing up the gray mist.
"Obtained 7 memory fragments of 'Milo Giles'"
"You got a piece of information: 'I didn't expect that the New Deal would fail and kill this Fick. For the sake of the survival of the Raigadi family, the clan council will not hold him accountable.'"
"You know a lot about assassination."
"You have acquired the 'air kicking technique' and mastered the body technique [Floating Kick]"
"You have mastered a lot of 'level 1~5 alchemy knowledge'"
"You have comprehended the incomplete fifth-level wind law and mastered the elemental condensation technique [Mystery·Wind Element Cutting]"
"You have mastered a lot of assassin combat experience, combat experience +411"
"Mental Power +4.6"
Professionals who can advance to the fifth level are all talented people.
This guy’s soul fragment did not disappoint.
As expected, many assassin-type professional abilities have been harvested, but those assassin skills require the support of physical attributes. Although Su Lun can use them, their power is far from being as sharp as professional assassins, and is a bit tasteless.
However, assassin skills are secondary, the most important gain is those high-level incomplete wind laws!
"Wind element cutting?"
Su Lun digested that memory and immediately understood the power of this alchemy.
This is not an ordinary skill that anyone can learn, but a subtle understanding of elemental manipulation.
It is similar to the air step. It cannot be learned by just learning. It takes a lot of time to "understand".
It is also an ability that is impossible for a professional below level three to master.
If [King Kong] is to add layers of gold element barriers to the body, then this [Wind Element Cutting] is equivalent to adding a "sharp" temporary enchantment to the body or weapon.
The assassin just now could easily cut Su Lun's thread. In addition to the sharpness of the dagger, what's more important is the "cutting" attribute of this elemental level.
This is a very useful and powerful advanced technique.
Specialized to attack all kinds of targets with rough skin and thick flesh, used to cut and break defenses!
"If silk threads are used to conduct it to the puppet, the puppet's physical damage capability will be greatly improved"
Su Lun has already thought of the practical use of this technique combined with puppets.
Relying solely on the sharpness of the weapon is already a bit weak in the battle of high-level professionals.
As long as the enemy has a few body protection techniques, it will be difficult to break through the defense.
The defense-breaking effect of [Wind Elemental Cutting] at the same level is at least several percent higher than the effect of [Sharp Rune]!
The combination of the two just makes up for the shortcomings of the puppet's defense-breaking ability.
Knowledge gain is part of it,
Split off the "assassin leader" of the Raigadi family,
Su Lun finally understood the identity of the original owner
I peeled off some fragments of memory before, and now I have peeled off some more, and I have roughly pieced together the map on the ground.
There are two major empires in the world on the ground, one is the island country "Lu Ying Empire", and the other is the "Marfa Mechanical Empire" on the land to the east.
The two empires faced each other across the sea, separated by the Luying Strait.
Others include various small kingdoms, principalities, and independent territories.
But most of them are dependent on the two empires.
In addition to these, there are large ice sheets in the extremely cold land in the north, known as the "Savage Land", where polar trolls, orcs, giants and barbarians are active.
That area is the epitome of chaos, primitiveness, and savagery.
"King of the North Sea" Oleg and his group of Viking pirates are from the North Icefield.
Of course, these are only the two empires and the nearby known territory. The memory fragments peeled off by Su Lun are only limited to areas where humans are active.
There are too many unknowns in this world.
There is an endless mountainous area called the "Warcraft Mountains" in the south of Marfa. Various magical beasts are active there, and legend has it that there are ancient intelligent groups such as centaurs, mountain dwarves and half-elves.
Then there is the vast ocean to the west of the Luying Empire. No one knows where the end of the ocean is. It is the paradise of ocean races and various ocean monsters. According to the travel notes of ancient adventurers and the songs of troubadours, there are islands where giant dragons live, islands where beautiful snake girls live, and nightmare islands where evil gods are sealed, etc.
Hidden in the deep sea are endless treasures hidden in the dust of history, sunken ships filled with gold and silver, memories of ancient wars, and the treasures of pirate kings
Or maybe there are secrets left by ancient civilizations hidden in a cave on the mainland
The rich historical heritage adds a rich unknown and mystery to the world.
It's like a thick classic book. When you turn one page, there is a more exciting page underneath.
One page after another, you can finally turn to the splendid period of creation of the gods
The original owner’s Leijiadi family has a rather special status.
It is a territory that is dependent on the Luying Empire, but it is different from other territories.
Strictly speaking, they are the exiled royal family, the former royal family of the Marfa Empire.
More than a hundred years ago, a certain mythical goblin ruins were discovered, and a technological revolution broke out. Steam machinery and various mechanical technologies sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Some alchemists became keen on studying various machines.
The new school of "mechanical alchemists" was also born.
They study mechanical alchemy and create and invent various mechanical equipment. The power of machinery has gradually affected life. Mechanical alchemists used their knowledge to create mecha warships, steam airships, mechanical equipment, and various super-powerful guns. Even ordinary people without training can use mechanical equipment to have the fighting power of professionals
But technological revolutions usually mean conflicts with some ancient order.
Machines replaced manpower, abolished slavery, and gave civilians rights
The mechanical revolution made the nobles feel that their rights and interests were threatened.
The fundamental reason why nobles are noble is because they have a sense of superiority that enslaves their fellows.
The original powerful mechanical alchemists founded the "Mechanical Sect".
As time goes by, the organization's influence among civilians has grown.
The nobles felt a sense of crisis that the order was about to collapse.
Therefore, the Marfa Emperor "Lega Di XI" began to suppress the Mechanical Sect, hoping to nip mechanical alchemy in the bud.
Then
The ending is tragic.
The mechanical alchemists overthrew the decadent ancient Marfa Empire and established a new Marfa Mechanical Empire.
As a royal family, the "Regadi Family" began to go into exile.
In the end, with the support of its old rival the Luying Empire, it occupied a southern island as its territory, and it remains until now.
The two major empires in the surface world now have a similar pattern to that of Old Rington, and they are also two factions of alchemists.
Old school and new school
"Thinking about the restoration of the country all day long, this script is so familiar"
After Su Lun digested that memory, he understood why the original owner was being hunted.
Because they were members of the royal family a hundred years ago, the Raigadi family are still proud of it, and even regard themselves as an ancient family with the same status as the royal families of the two empires.
Thinking about restoring the country all day long, contacting various forces everywhere
And because the Mafa Mechanical Empire is becoming increasingly powerful, some differences have also emerged within the Luying Empire.
They faced the same situation as the old Marfa Empire. The mechanical revolution would shake the power of the rulers and change the original social order.
The most important thing is the defeat of the war.
This war, which has lasted for hundreds of years, started with a one-sided advantage for the Lu and Ying Empire, then ended with a stalemate in the middle, and now it is gradually becoming weaker
For professionals of the same level, the old school alchemist does have an absolute advantage in combat power.
Especially in the circle of top professionals, the gap between mechanical warriors will become wider and wider.
But it takes many years to cultivate a third-level professional, and it also requires one-in-a-million talents and countless resources;
As for a fighting mecha equivalent to that of a third-level professional, assembly line manufacturing only takes about one day.
It is foreseeable that the Luying Empire will decline in the future.
So, some people in the empire also want to reform.
Then there are all kinds of party struggles.
The current head of the family, the father of the original owner, Kelson Regadi, is a staunch royalist. After all, they were once a royal family, so they naturally wanted to maintain the original order of aristocratic supremacy.
About a year ago, the revolution was successful and the new party came to power. Emperor Bonaparte IX was forced to abdicate and died in depression not long after.
Kelson happened to be in the imperial capital and was also implicated. He was detained and awaiting trial.
His descendants were also exiled and imprisoned, and the original owner was one of the unlucky ones.
The Raigadi family is now flourishing, with more people than there were even a hundred years ago.
There are probably tens of thousands of people with this surname in the "Orn Territory".
The clan family is weak, but the branch families are stronger.
I thought that the head of the family was dead, but the family members in Leijia started to act like monsters and took over the positions.
In order to avoid future troubles, they thought of killing all the descendants of the clan.
This means that the original owner has been exiled and is being hunted down with a bounty on his head.
Unexpectedly, a few months later, the plot would turn around.
The Queen returned strongly and suppressed various dissident parties with iron-blooded tactics. The revolution failed and the Bona Dynasty was restored.
Then, the original owner’s father will soon return to his territory
It seems that the people who separated the family have no intention of letting the original family return to the territory alive
Su Lun, a time traveler, has absolutely no interest in family fighting.
He didn't want to be a "descendant of the royal family" either.
Looking at this situation, the other party is planning to kill them all.
But it’s not a big problem. The world on the ground is endlessly vast, so just avoid the Raigadi family.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through my mind, but only a moment passed in reality.
Mr. Jing on the side watched quietly as Su Lun digested the soul fragments.
Obviously, she also saw that Su Lun had guessed her identity.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he seemed a little helpless.
Su Lun looked at the big man who came to save his life and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. Jing."
Mr. Hei shook his head, as if he didn't care, "Not bad."
Su Lun knew that this was naturally referring to the previous battle.
The fact that the rescue was so timely meant that she arrived very early and was watching.
The purpose is self-evident, naturally it is to let him face the fifth-level enemy personally and feel the oppression.
Su Lun also felt that he handled it well. At least the second level could last so long in the hands of the fifth level. Anyone would be proud of it.
Unexpectedly, after a moment's pause, Mr. Jing said another meaningful sentence, "Have you never experienced death, you will never understand the law of death, nor can you understand some of the 'mind' and 'qi' levels" Things can't nourish your spirit, just like people have no bones. Even if you have skills, your achievements will be limited. No one can explain that thing, even the [Death Reaper] can't harvest it. You can only understand it yourself."
As soon as Su Lun heard this, he knew that Mr. Jing was giving him some very high-level practice tips.
After thinking about it for a moment, those words seemed to be imprinted in my heart, and I immediately realized something in my heart.
His face was full of seriousness, "You have learned a lesson, Mr. Mirror."
Hearing this, Mr. Jing shook his head slightly, and actually said proactively: "You should have guessed my identity. In the future, when there are no outsiders, just call me senior sister."
As he is an ordinary person, it is naturally inappropriate to call him "sir".
What's more, he is his mother's disciple.
Su Lun listened and nodded: "Okay, senior sister."
Mr. Jing had no intention of staying any longer, and added: "It just so happens that we need some information from the outside world. The people on the city wall, Amy Rich, have gone to deal with it. You don't have to worry about it."
After a pause, she glanced at Su Lun and then said: "And you should be more careful."
Su Lun nodded.
Looking at it again, Mr. Mirror, who was wearing a cloak, had already collapsed in front of his eyes
Su Lun looked at the body on the ground and silently put it into the storage space.
He didn’t stop and immediately left the scene of the battle.
Although Mr. Jing’s words are very cryptic, these words have the same meaning:
He also understood immediately.
People's mentality will change in a comfortable environment without knowing it.
This is instinctive.
Su Lun was awakened by this sentence.
When he first traveled through time, survival was a problem, and he had to stay alert at all times.
Now that I have met all the powerful allies, I subconsciously feel a sense of dependence on enjoying "well-being" in my heart.
If it were him alone, or if he was sure that Mr. Jing would not necessarily help, he would definitely not enter the city if he had doubts before.
Because he was sure that Mr. Jing would definitely help.
I just thought I could hunt and harvest a fifth-level professional by the way
It's indeed a bit wasteful.
This senior sister looks cold, but she is still very caring.
