Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 231: Warrior, you are in danger of death

Su Lun still doesn’t know that there is an undercurrent surging outside the auction site, nor does he know what the “Super Mechanical Warrior” warrior blueprint means to the two empires.

But he could guess that this auction would not be simple if it could attract so many big names.

The auction continues.

Anything that can go to auction must be of high quality.

What comes out of Jiulingdun are all ancient relics, and there are many out-of-print and orphan items, many of which are not available outside.

Because many wealthy foreigners came to the normal auction, the prices of the auction items were driven up very high.

The arms dealers on the second floor, who are not short of money, spend a lot of money, and often raise prices several times to make the individual customers on the first floor unable to pay.

Most of the good treasures fell into their hands

Su Lun is not very interested in those breeding materials and wants to wait for the slave auction in the midfield.

I also prayed in my heart, hoping that nothing would happen...

Unexpectedly, before the slave auction, a mysterious method appeared in front of him that he was very interested in.

At this time, a girl brought out a tray.

The auctioneer on the stage was pointing to the blue scroll in the tray and introduced: "The items being auctioned below are of great origin. I believe everyone has heard of the secrets of the Four Gods of Earth, Wind, Water and Fire. Wrong! This volume is one of the complete secrets of Fire [Warrior]! The starting price is one million gold crowns"

As soon as he finished speaking, the photographers in the audience immediately started whispering.

Obviously, this secret method is really something everyone knows.

"The Secret of the Four Gods, it is said to be the top secret method of controlling fire. It is rare to see such a secret method being auctioned in the Imperial Capital Auction House."

"Isn't this a secret method inherited exclusively by the royal family? I didn't expect this secret method to be found in the auction house. I'm really curious about who the owner of this batch of goods is. There is such a secret method that is not hidden, but is actually sold out? ”

"These things are of great value. Could it be that some big thief stole the royal treasury? Hey, this secret method can be sold, but except for the royal family, other people will not be afraid of violating the prohibition after learning it?"

"I think they are pirates. Only unscrupulous bandits dare to do this"

""

Listening to these whispers in his ears, Su Lun also showed a thoughtful look on his face.

He knew that the [Warrior] secret method was very powerful, but he didn't think it was that special before.

In Jiulingdun, there are many such ancient secret techniques, and even a master can know one or two of them.

Now that I heard the conversations between these people, I realized that this secret technique seemed to be very rare in the surface world.

Su Lun also thought about buying it.

Although he knows part of the [Wu Attendant] secret technique, after all, it is fragments torn from corpses.

The people in Jiulingdun can't break through the third level. No matter how powerful they are, they can only partially achieve it.

It's probably like a secret book with ten levels, which can only be practiced to 30%.

What Su Lun peeled off was still part of the 30%.

Now that the complete secret volume has appeared, I naturally don’t want to let it go.

However, the price of the technique is also a bit ridiculously expensive.

The starting price is one million gold crowns?

Unexpectedly, for rich people, not only is it not high, it is also low!

As soon as the starting price was announced, the high rollers on the second floor instantly raised the price to two million gold crowns

Seeing the price soaring, Su Lun's eyelids twitched.

Sure enough, prices vary by region.

The prices in Old Lington are very different from those in the outside world.

He thought he was quite rich. If he sold everything he could, he would probably have one billion or eighty million liso (excluding secrets and classics)

How many hundred million does it cost to buy a secret book now?

The pace of the auction is very fast. At this time, the auctioneer said: "Okay! The distinguished guest in Box 3 bids 2.3 million gold crowns. Is there anyone with a higher bid?"

Seeing that no one raised the price, Su Lun raised his card once and raised the price to 2.4 million.

You can still make money if you have no money. I really want to miss this time. I don’t know where I can get the complete secret.

As for the "royal exclusive secret method"

This is an ancient secret method discovered through archeology. With the addition of "royal inheritance", others are not allowed to practice it?

Su Lun didn't think so much, because he already knew how to do it.

This secret method is very special. From the beginning to the end, several arms dealers on the second floor are increasing the price.

This time there was a bid on the first floor, as if a sudden atmosphere of conspiracy enveloped the entire auction house, and the entire auction house fell silent.

What is very strange is that no one raised the price, and Su Lun successfully took the picture of the secret method.

At the same time, in the third box, the middle-aged man in a suit who was smoking a cigar sneered.

He was naturally unhappy if someone robbed him of the lot.

It’s not about money at all. I just want to recover the secret method that has been lost outside. It’s just a matter of a few royal relatives on the second floor fighting over it. I didn’t expect that someone with no foresight actually made an offer?

The middle-aged man flicked his cigar on the wall, causing sparks to fly, "Oh, not everyone can learn the secret of the royal family."

As soon as these words came out, a strong bodyguard beside him immediately said: "Sir, congressman, shall I go and take a look?"

The middle-aged man's anger disappeared in a flash, and he immediately realized something. He turned his eyes and murmured: "You know that it is the royal family's secret method, and you also know that I am the one raising the price, but you still dare to spend such a sum of money to buy it. I'm afraid this purpose is not pure. This time we are here for the drawings. Is it a trap set by a competitor?"

He thought for a moment, and then said: "Well, find a local snake and go explore the situation first, and don't involve us."

Bodyguard: "Yes. Congressman."

The middle-aged man is the Carlyle Fisher family, the boss of the three major arms dealers in the imperial capital, "Cobra War Equipment Company", and a member of Congress.

The hundreds of years of war with Marfa brought huge profits to these arms dealers, and their intricate network of relationships made them an indispensable part of the Luying Empire. This is a man who truly holds real power and is a big shot in Old Lingtown.

The super mechanical warrior technology in the hands of Archduke Raphael has actually been coveted by other lords and even the Bona royal family for a long time. But the lords have their own rights. The Grand Duke already belongs to the top nobles, and no one dares to pay attention to this technology.

Now that there is this "unexpected" opportunity, they will naturally take it

Su Lun went to the trading room and exchanged some items before replacing the complete volume of [Warrior] Secret Technique.

The items in the auction are not getting more expensive, but have their ups and downs. The volume of [No Attendant] is considered to be the most valuable item in the auction.

When Su Lun came back, he didn't wait long and happened to catch up with the slave auction in the midfield.

A group of demi-humans were put on the auction stage, with twenty or thirty samples in the large iron cage.

They had chains on their hands and feet, and explosive collars around their necks.

The male demi-humans are as majestic as tigers and leopards, while the female figures are graceful and graceful with delicate faces.

The old, weak, sick and disabled who were of poor quality had long been killed during plunder.

This is a normal product in the auction.

As soon as this batch of slaves came out, the wealthy businessmen in the audience who had been waiting to buy slaves started to make a noise.

"Yo, full of wildness, much more flavorful than those domesticated demi-humans."

"Hey, the quality is very high. This batch of goods must be of the quality of these rabbit-type demi-humans. Once it is trained and put into the custom museum, it will definitely be a big hit, and it will make at least ten times the profit."

""

As the humans in the audience pointed and pointed, the demihumans slapped the iron cage and let out an unyielding roar like a beast.

Su Lun's eyes also fell on those demi-humans, wanting to see which one Mr. Mirror said might have a special identity.

But it looks a bit face-blind, and they all seem to be the same regardless of the same type.

The starting price was announced at the same time, and soon the price began to rise.

The price of demihuman slaves is higher than that of humans. Usually, as long as the quality is not bad, the wholesale unit price of the auction house is about 300,000 to 500,000 liso per piece. In other words, for this batch of 200 units, it would be reasonable for the total selling price not to exceed 100 million.

After all, demi-humans still need to be tamed. The stronger the wildness, the harder it is to tame them.

I don’t know how many of the two hundred people will survive in the end.

Su Lun also raised the card twice, and the price quickly rose to more than 80 million.

Later there were fewer bidders.

But he didn't expect that this time the price for box No. 3 on the second floor was raised again: "100 million!"

That guy directly raised the price to a high price that normal businessmen would not be interested in.

Su Lun looked at it and calmly raised the sign again, "One hundred and ten million!"

If it were an ordinary slave, he really wouldn't be interested.

But he promised to help Mr. Jing to save these demi-humans.

No matter how high the price is, you have to buy it.

It would be even more troublesome if someone else really took the photo away.

"One hundred and fifty million!"

"Twenty million!"

"Two hundred and fifty million!"

The price of box No. 3 was also increased many times, and Su Lun followed up again and again.

Su Lun knew that the other party was testing his attitude and identity during the previous filming of "No Attendance".

But they are a group of slaves after all, and they cannot be much higher no matter how high they are.

Su Lun later raised the price very high every time, giving people the impression of deliberately driving up the price.

He knew very well that his little wealth was simply not enough in the eyes of a big arms dealer.

The other party doesn't care about this small amount of money, but he is definitely not willing to be "taken advantage of".

But Su Lun is bound to buy those slaves. Only with legal ownership certificates can he send those demi-humans out to sea.

But in the eyes of others, this behavior is just a quarrel with the person in the third box.

Everyone else is watching the fun.

The bidding in Box 3 became more and more cautious.

Probably out of suspicion that Su Lun was a shill specially invited by the pirates, Box 3 also disappeared.

In the end, he bought the slaves at a price that was twice the market price

Su Lun paid the money and left the auction house without waiting for the last batch of auction items.

Although he guessed that the finale was the [Super Mechanical Warrior Blueprint], he was also very interested in getting a point to study it. But looking at the situation, it was simply not something that his financial resources could interfere with.

Furthermore, the increasingly solemn atmosphere in the auction house also gave Su Lun a conjecture: the neuromechanical technology secretly researched by Archduke Rafael is probably top-notch in the surface world.

Otherwise, it would never have attracted so many big arms dealers, as well as ambassadors from mechanical holy places like the Marfa Empire, to bid.

He had a vague feeling that no matter who took the picture, things would not be that simple.

Not long after, Pier 7 of Kadurante Port.

This is a general cargo port. Su Lun bought a seagoing ship before and stocked up with sufficient fresh water and food.

After a while, the auction staff drove a steam trailer and delivered several large iron cages covered with canvas to the dock.

The porters unloaded the cage and pulled back the canvas. Locked in the cage were the two hundred Asians he photographed.

Suddenly there was light in front of his eyes, and the untamed demi-humans showed their fierce eyes and stared at the humans in front of them fiercely.

Killing intent and hatred are as real as substance.

If it weren't for the restraints of chains and iron cages, these demi-humans would probably tear apart the humans in front of them.

The staff member pointed to the number on the cage and said, "Sir, this is the product you photographed."

Seeing that Su Lun was alone, he kindly reminded: "Sir, do you need help arranging transportation to the ship?"

Su Lun shook his head, "No need. Just give me the key."

"Huh? Oh"

The staff was stunned and handed over the key without asking any questions.

This is the key to unlocking the slave's chains and the explosive collar around his neck.

After the staff left, Su Lun looked at the demi-humans in the box and asked, "Does anyone know Common Language?"

Those demi-humans ignored him completely.

""

Su Lun sighed helplessly and muttered in his heart: Mr. Jing clearly said that the druids of the Daru tribe should be able to speak the common language.

I hope I didn’t buy the wrong person.

Su Lun changed the way of speaking and said something strange again: "*%ф%￥ё￥"

This is the oath that Mr. Jing told him when he signed the contract. It means: "The agreement reached cannot be broken. Beauty is just a blooming flower. Friendship is the rock that will last forever."

As soon as these words came out, the demi-humans in the iron cages in front of them immediately became quiet.

The killing intent in their eyes instantly turned into confusion, and they looked at Su Lun with confusion.

Seeing this scene, Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief, as if the money was not wasted.

But he only knew one sentence in Daru, and once he said it, he lost it, and then said in common language: "You should know what this sentence means. I have no ill intentions."

After a pause, he took out the mammoth amulet he had previously obtained from the Sea Serpent Gang, and then said: "As entrusted by others, and following the covenant of the year, I will rescue you now. There is enough water on the boat. and food, you can return to the Northland by boat. Of course, if you don’t know how to sail, I can help you hire some sailors."

After a pause, he looked at the confused demi-humans and asked, "Do you understand what I said?"

There was another awkward silence.

Looking at those confused eyes, these demi-humans really didn’t understand.

Su Lun felt that if they didn't understand, things would be a bit troublesome.

Although I don’t feel the murderous intention now, I don’t dare to open the iron cage.

Unexpectedly, at this time, a two-meter-tall bear-type demi-human spoke, "Excuse me, where did you hear these words?"

Su Lun asked: "Are you a Druid of the Daru tribe?"

Black Bear Yajin nodded and said: "Yes. You can call me Pasu."

He looked at Su Lun with complicated eyes and said in a lamenting tone: "Human beings nowadays all call us 'subhuman slaves', but no one calls us the Daru tribe anymore."

It’s good to be able to communicate.

Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief.

He always thought that the druid should be a wise man like a little old man, but he didn't expect him to be the bear tribe. If I remember correctly, he was temporarily passed over on stage just now.

He didn’t know how to introduce Mr. Mirror’s identity, so after thinking about it, he showed off the [Seraya’s Blessing] in his hand.

This ring happens to have the coat of arms of the Isaac family on it.

He only said: "That person has other things to deal with now and can't leave for the time being. She asked me to tell you that some people still remember the covenant back then, and the friendship between humans and the Daru tribe will not disappear."

Su Lun felt that such frivolous words were a bit unreliable.

After all, slave capture is a very **** process.

Those in front of me are all strong, old, weak, sick and disabled, and they have been killed in the process of arrest.

In other words, it is not an exaggeration to say that humans have a hatred of genocide against demi-humans.

It is definitely not possible to clear up the past feud with just one sentence.

Unexpectedly, these people are surprisingly easy to communicate with.

When I saw the crest on the ring, I immediately understood something. After hearing these words again, the black bear demi-human actually nodded in approval, with a look of complete conviction in his eyes!

Then, he murmured something to the other demi-humans in the iron cage.

This druid seemed to have a very high status. After hearing what he said, the group of Daru people immediately became quiet. Then they looked at Su Lun with the same complex eyes of disbelief, gratitude, shock, and friendliness.

Su Lun no longer felt any hostility in these eyes

Su Lun couldn't understand how the "covenant" could be so powerful that it actually made them immediately put aside their hatred of genocide.

However, this was a good sign, so he opened the iron cage without any scruples, and then handed them the key to unlock the explosive collar.

The collars around their necks fell off, and the Daru people were a little unbelievable. They were actually free?

Then, the group of Daru people bowed to Su Lun and performed a chest-protecting salute, "Thank you to the warrior for your rescue. The Daru people will always remember this kindness."

Su Lun felt a little awkward when hearing the word "warrior" this time. He just paid some money, but he was not a warrior.

The one who really deserves thanks is Mr. Jing.

He thought it was the spoken language of the Daru people, so he didn't care and didn't dare to take credit. He said: "You're welcome, I just accepted it."

Now is not the time for small talk.

Fortunately, these people can sail the boat themselves, so there is no need for him to hire sailors.

After a few words of greeting, Su Lun sent these people on the boat,

Weigh anchor, Yang Fan.

Although the ship was full of demi-humans, and the administrator at the dock looked a little strange, Su Lun had complete slave ownership certificates and was not in trouble.

As soon as the ship leaves the harbor, the matter is over.

This was also the first time for Su Lun and these demi-humans to meet. There was no friendship at all. Apart from being polite, there was nothing to talk about.

I didn’t expect it, but when it was time to say goodbye, the black bear tribe man called Pasu made a praying gesture on the deck, and his hands glowed with green light.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes that was completely inconsistent with his majestic body.

Su Lun looked a little confused and didn't understand what he was doing.

Unexpectedly, Pasu said at this time: "Warrior, the prophecy tells me that you will experience a death disaster in the future. But the ocean will protect you."

Su Lun's eyelids twitched slightly: ""

Death disaster?

There are indeed professionals with the gift of prophecy, but 99% of those who say they can prophesy are liars.

The so-called predictions are some inferences made after listening to things from side to side.

However, Mr. Mirror said, the druids of the Daru tribe are really good at prophecy!

Seeing the boat about to leave, Su Lun instinctively asked, "Mr. Pasu, what do you mean by this prophecy?"

Pasu shook his head and said no more. He only smiled and blessed: "Warrior, the goddess of nature will protect you."

As he said that, a group of demi-humans on the boat also made a gesture of praying with their fists raised, as if to bless Su Lun again.

Prophecy comes with a price, and it's not a small one.

Seeing this, Su Lun didn't ask much and waved his hand towards the ship slowly leaving the port.

But he thought that he was an alchemist and had no belief in gods.

He did not feel that the goddess of nature would protect him.

However, Su Lun did not underestimate Pasu's prophecy just now.

Since it is a "death disaster", the problem is not small.

"Will the ocean protect me?"

Su Lun frowned and thought in his mind: "Is it because there is danger on land and you want me to go to sea as soon as possible? Or should I jump into the sea when I encounter danger?"

There are many myths and stories about "prophecy" in this world.

If it is not a liar and someone with poor skills, prophecy means something will definitely happen.

In other words, he must have encountered a death disaster?

Su Lun immediately paid attention to it.

At this moment, Chance's hostile gaze had already glanced at him.

"People from the Sea Serpent Gang?"

Su Lun looked at the guys who looked like they were gangsters by looking at their clothes,

These guys are not considered "death calamities" to him

The Sea Snake Gang is a local gangster in Kadurante, but this kind of gang is far inferior to the chaotic and orderly three gangs in the outer city of Old Town.

These guys only engage in petty theft, smuggling, and blackmailing outsiders.

Although there are several third-level professionals and second-level cadres in the gang, their strength is average.

After all, they don’t have much pressure to survive. They just join gangs and are just lazy. Those with a little bit of ability all thought of joining the nobility or wealthy businessmen to seek a future.

Su Lun looked at several guys in leather jackets and holding muskets walking over, without any panic on their faces.

His eyes were not on these guys who seemed to be walking in vain, but on the surroundings.

A total of eight people were sensed, six of them were surrounding him, one was on the lookout, and another one was aiming a sniper rifle at him on a distant tower.

These guys are very familiar with each other on the dock. When they come, the administrator of the dock disappears.

Several people gathered around Su Lun.

The leader's afro, Su Lun's peeling memory has the impression that Frank "Poison Fang", the deputy leader of the Sea Serpent Gang, is a third-level assassin who is good at using poison.

Su Lun saw that there were no other troublesome people, so he thought there was no need to jump into the sea.

He planned to take a look at the situation.

The other party saw that Su Lun did not move. Frank stopped not far away and asked: "Brother, where did you come from?"

Su Lun was also very wise and asked: "Where is there any offense?"

"Hey, are you still on the road?"

Frank was slightly surprised, but there was a flash of contempt in his eyes.

People on the road, in other words, are no longer nobles.

His tone was no longer polite: "You have offended a big shot that you shouldn't have offended. If someone wants to cause trouble for you, if you have the money, you should explain it quickly, otherwise"

As soon as Su Lun heard this, his thoughts became more active.

I just came to this city, so I don’t have any old enemies.

I thought someone was investigating the matter of intercepting and killing Viscount Primo, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

Then who is in box number three at the auction?

Su Lun thought about this, but he was a little confused. The arms dealer in the imperial capital had such a big name, so he sent a few gangsters here?

Nothing seems right.

But thinking that he couldn't get a result, Su Lun walked towards the person in front of him.

"Fang" Frank saw Su Lun walking over and immediately became alert and shouted: "Hey! Stop!"

Su Lun didn't care what he said, nor did he care about the barrels of the guns pointed at him. He was forbidden to move forward.

A few members of the Sea Serpent Gang were forced back by this momentum. They were originally here to test, but they didn't expect that they didn't talk nonsense at all and were about to take action?

However, after all, they are gangsters who are accustomed to being arrogant. Who dares to attack them in this land?

Anyway, I planned to capture the previous ones and ask them, which is exactly what they meant!

The green poison-quenching dagger in Frank's hand pulled out a beautiful knife flower, but as soon as he turned it over and started to take action, he saw a crystal silk thread light up on the necks of the three minions around him.

Frank didn't have time to remind his younger brothers and instinctively leaned back to avoid the fatal thread.

But before the three people around them could react, blood arrows shot out from their necks, and their heads fell to the ground.

Frank said "Not good" in his heart, knowing that he had met a top-notch strong person.

At almost the same time, there was a "pop" and the sniper in the distance also fired!

Frank secretly thought it was a good opportunity. Not only could this shot kill the target, it would at least create an opportunity for him to attack.

As long as his poisonous dagger breaks the skin, no matter how strong it is, it will be useless!

However, what people didn’t expect was that the man in front of him tilted his head very quickly before the gunshot, and then heard the sound of the bullet hitting the floor!

He could avoid sniper bullets so easily?

This shocked Frank beyond measure. At least among the third-level professionals he knew, no one could do this!

What's even more shocking is that Su Lun raised his hand and pulled out the musket from his waist, "bumped" two shots, one shot was returned, and the other shot hit the guard.

A moment later, a subtle sound of bullets was heard from the tower in the distance!

Blind firing a pistol?

Advanced firearms!

What kind of marksmanship is there!

Frank was horrified and immediately thought of retreating.

He dodged the thread, but his steps were not slow. He jumped over it and wanted to jump into the sea.

But Su Lun is faster!

With a "bang" sound, Su Lun jumped into the air and jumped ten meters in an instant. With one kick, he kicked the figure in the air away.

Frank's fighting skills are not bad, Su Lun originally had to spend some time to win in close combat.

But he didn’t want to waste any more time on the dock. As soon as the five puppets were pulled out, six against one, the guy was stabbed into a sieve of blood in the blink of an eye

Su Lun and the others met and killed the Sea Serpent Gang, without even giving them a chance to send a signal.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, he pursed his lips and muttered with disgust: "A fancy fight with a sword?"

These superfluous actions can be used to show off at the same level, but when faced with someone as sharp as Su Lun, they are simply fatal actions.

At this level, as a gangster, this Sea Snake Gang is much more amateurish than the Cross Society he was in before.

Su Lun harvested the souls of several corpses but did not get any useful information. It was expected that the person who sent them here was just trying it out casually.

However, he didn't worry too much.

After all, the plan is to leave by boat tomorrow morning.

Everything is done here cleanly, and no one will keep an eye on him.

"Counting the time, the auction house should be over too"

Su Lun thought of this and had a vague premonition of what was going to happen.

Suddenly!

A violent battle suddenly broke out on Oak Street in the distance!

Su Lun looked over suddenly, looked at the fire in the distance, and then distinguished the sound of the steam boiler exploding, and guessed: "Trouble, those group of mechanical warriors are fighting with people?"
