Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 520: A mysterious mechanical life

Su Lun heard the existence that had communicated with him mentally just now, and a flash of thought flashed across his expression.

This is the imperial capital of Kabitron, and he has never doubted the strength of the Marfa Empire.

Although Frank, the holy son of the Gods, was strong that day, he might not be able to do evil here alone.

No matter what that guy is doing here, now that he has been discovered in advance, there will definitely be a fierce battle.

But these are all Marfa's concerns now.

What Su Lun was even more curious about was that it seemed that the person he was mentally talking to just now was really the "library ghost"?

It would be very interesting if it were really Grand Master Lucian Pepys, the founder of the Mechanical Alchemy Guild who died more than a hundred years ago.

Obviously, Dora, who was sitting opposite her, also got the news and looked greatly surprised.

She glanced at Su Lun and didn't expect her teacher to meet an outsider, but she didn't hesitate and said seriously: "My teacher asked you to come."

Su Lun didn’t ask any more questions and nodded: “Yes.”

That Frank seemed to be looking for something when he came to the library, but the mysterious boss had spoken, and it was no longer Su Lun's turn to consider the issue.

The three of them quietly left their seats.

With Dora leading the way, they walked all the way through the library, and then went down a hundred meters through the high-tech elevator.

There are several floors underground that are public areas, and below that are the college’s laboratories.

Su Lun also sensed the surrounding space along the way.

There are not many old things in the Marfa Royal Library, most of which are high-precision mechanical products. The technologies studied in the laboratories here are quite futuristic, and you can see everywhere mechanical products that are decades more advanced than those on the market.

Su Lun saw some strange laboratories along the way, and also discovered that there was something special about the overall structure. This underground space does not seem to be a simple laboratory, but more like a huge war machine.

Su Lun guessed that this must be Marfa's top secret and didn't ask much.

Dora's ID card has very high authority, so he and No. 19 followed him all the way down.

I walked to the bottom of the elevator and passed through the layers of restrictions. I thought I was at the end, but unexpectedly Dora led people to an alloy wall.

Looking at the space alchemy array lit up on the alloy wall, Su Lun narrowed his eyes slightly: "Folding space technology?"

Obviously, after crossing this space door, he was about to face the mysterious existence.

The sleeping crow hidden in the hat did not call out. After sensing the space, it could not trap him. Su Lun followed him in without any surprise.

Looking again, the scene before my eyes changed.

He has entered a laboratory in the cyber world, which is full of various advanced instruments.

This small step seems to span decades.

Su Lun immediately realized that he seemed to have discovered some big secret.

But he felt that he already had world-class research equipment in his small void world. When I look at this place again, I feel like it is behind the times.

However, equipment and everything else are secondary.

What surprised him the most was the "biological brain" soaked in yellow-green nutrient solution and plugged into various pipes that he saw as soon as he entered!

The brain is a sphere nearly two meters in diameter and is obviously not human.

It’s hard to imagine how huge a creature this is to have such a brain.

The moment Su Lun walked in, his omniscient eye identified the name.

[Isaac the Blasphemer Lucian]

Detailed explanation: The brain of the Nightmare Unicorn carries the alchemical equipment of the consciousness of Lucian Pepys, a special semi-mechanical life;

This is actually a piece of colonial clothing?

When Su Lun saw this scene, he was surprised and immediately knew what the alchemical cultivation equipment recorded in the Isaac manuscript in the hands of the Marfa royal family was!

I also instantly understood what was going on in this library.

When Su Lun and the others walked in, a voice echoed in the laboratory: "My little friend, your knowledge is much broader than I expected. The calmness you showed made me feel that you are more capable than the average person." Understand my existence."

This time it was not a spiritual exchange, but a spoken word.

There is no one else here, so the one who speaks is naturally the brain.

Number 19 on the side looked the same, but he was already shocked in his heart.

The more people understand mechanical technology, the more magical it will be.

This does not seem to be a technology that should exist in this era, because its existence is beyond recognition.

When Su Lun saw this, a strange color flashed across his eyes. Although he identified it, he still asked his brain: "Senior, is Master Lucien Pepys?"

The voice did not deny it, but responded: "This statement is not accurate. The consciousness of Lucian Pepys is me, but I am not Lucian. I would rather say that my consciousness is copied in this thing. A new semi-mechanical life in the alchemy plant."

Su Lun asked doubtfully: "Cyborg life?"

He has seen in some classics before that there were descriptions of the special existence of mechanical life in some magical mechanical civilizations.

But he has never understood how a machine can produce consciousness, and how can it be called a living body?

Like steel turned into spirit?

It feels a bit outrageous no matter how you think about it.

Seeing the brain in front of him, Su Lun felt like he understood something.

The voice seemed to say: "As you can see. The body of the alchemist Lucian is dead. I have his complete consciousness, but it is not him. When you see this [blasphemer] costume, It's just a part of my body. I can't explain this principle to you at the moment, and this is also the area I'm studying."

When Su Lun heard this, his thoughts were racing.

So, this is the "library ghost".

He gave some guidance to those talented young mechanics, and various legends came into being.

The voice probably wanted to explain to Su Lun, and then explained: "Quinton J. Harris and I once discovered the ruins of a goblin alchemy civilization, which contained records about the ancient mechanical race. Alchemy One of the branches of the art points to mechanical life, which is similar in nature to the 'alchemy android'. Those discoveries opened up new ideas for me. My frail body allowed me to see the limits of the human body. So, from that time on, this became The direction of my lifelong research."

"Oh?"

After saying this, Su Lun thought of Pandora and vaguely understood.

He listened carefully to the story of the mechanical empire overthrowing the old Marfa empire.

Two powerful alchemists discovered ancient mechanical ruins and used them as the foundation to create today's mechanical empire.

But hearing it from the person involved made it feel even more legendary.

He told the unknown secrets.

The "Lucian" said again: "But the development of mechanical alchemy technology requires huge computing power support, especially after high levels, basic equipment such as steam differential engines can no longer meet the demand. Fortunately, fate Favored by me, I accidentally obtained an alchemy manuscript written by Sir Isaac. That fantastic demigod senior created a magical alchemy equipment that allowed humans to have the power to break through their own brain power. Super thinking ability. It also makes it possible to develop mechanical technology in this alchemical era."

He paused, "As you can see, the brain you see is the brain of a demigod beast [Nightmare Unicorn] that I found from a dream cursed space. It is tens of millions of times stronger than a human being. computing power”

Su Lun also looked stunned for a moment.

It turns out that the establishment of the Mechanical Empire is directly related to the manuscript [The Blasphemer] left by Sir Isaac?

He had thought about Marfa before, and the explosion of technology must require certain conditions to support it.

Lu Ying's failure to keep up is not only due to political ignorance and backwardness, but also because he lacks some key "hardware" that can support the technological explosion.

Now, he finally understood the existence of the brain immersed in the nutrient tank in front of him.

Listening to the explanation, it can be understood to some extent that this is a super biological computer dominated by human consciousness!

While Lu Ying was still using that huge and clumsy steam difference engine, Marfa already had a biological computer?

No wonder the technological gap is so huge.

"It's really a magical alchemy."

Su Lun was also filled with emotion, knowing that he had come into contact with Marfa's top secret.

He was also thinking in his mind.

What is this person’s motivation for saying so much?

Lucian didn't mean to explain more: "This process is too complicated to explain. In short, I am just a semi-mechanical life that has not completely succeeded. No one except my disciple Dora, or even the entire Marfa, fully knows I am an existence beyond the understanding of people of this era. If you are interested, I can tell you more stories. However, the top priority is to deal with the holy son of the plane of gods above."

Su Lun thought for a moment and asked, "What can I do?"

Before coming, he had guessed that this should be the case.

Lucian: "I need all the information you know about the Celestial Clan, my friend. If I guess correctly, what you awakened should be the extremely rare god-level talent [S-004-Death Reaper]. I am right You don’t have any ill intentions, you just live longer and know more than others. Of course, I will also pay enough for this information."

Su Lun was not too surprised to hear that Lucian guessed his talent.

The Shadow of Death is such an obvious symbol. If you have heard of it, you will know it.

It is not surprising to know that the man in front of me was already a top expert in the field of alchemy more than a hundred years ago.

Su Lun just listened and frowned: "Information?"

Mafa is currently the main force resisting the plane invasion, so he doesn't mind sharing that information.

It’s just that he peeled off so much information that if he had to explain it in detail, he wouldn’t be able to finish it even for ten days and ten nights.

At this point, Lucian also guessed something and said: "Time is running out, and the communication method of language is too inefficient. Let's switch to spiritual communication."

Su Lun looked normal as he listened.

He is now very proficient in the use of spiritual mystical techniques, and spiritual communication will indeed be much faster.

At the same time as those words rang in his mind, he asked: "I know a lot of information, where should I start?"

Lucian: "Just use your mental power to express it, and I will understand the rest."

"Just express?"

Su Lun asked rhetorically.

He understood the meaning of these words, but was a little surprised.

This is the benefit of spiritual communication. What you want to express can be "heard" by the other party.

One thing, that is, a question of thought, is very convenient.

But there is a limit to this.

Although you don’t open your mouth, you still need to be able to digest and understand the idea.

It's like showing a movie, fast forwarded a hundred times. Although the entire story has been expressed, it depends on the processing efficiency of the human brain, not to mention whether it can be fully received; even if it can be received, the contents of the pictures must be one by one. to digest.

Lucian seemed to have guessed his doubts, and said: "You don't have to be so strange, I can understand almost everything in this plane. This is the power of [Isaac Blasphemer], the external appendage is It has given me brain power that is simply impossible for humans to achieve."

After Su Lun heard this, he finally fully understood.

Hearing this, he once again had unlimited expectations for the notebook that he had not yet received.

This [blasphemer] costume is simply an alchemist’s artifact, it’s like having a second brain!

What concepts can you understand that you cannot understand?

This means that a new alchemy apprentice can understand some intermediate, advanced, and even master-level knowledge in the field of alchemy.

The improvement this breeding equipment brings to the alchemist is simply immeasurable! (Highly likely to be affected by the quality and materials of the clothing)

Furthermore, Su Lun also instantly thought that this costume was very compatible with his profession as a puppet master.

He has now reached a bottleneck in the number of puppets he controls.

Simply increasing mental power will increase the upper limit of the number of controls, but the most fundamental reason has not yet been solved, that is, the ability to "multiple minds and multitasking" has reached the upper limit.

And isn’t this [blasphemer] an advanced step in “multitasking”?

The cloak is part of the alchemist's body. If I don't have enough brains, I just need to get a super powerful brain and refine it into a breeding suit. Doesn't this directly increase my ability?

Some magical creatures in this world have brains that are better suited for thinking than humans.

For example, dragons are born with the ability to understand higher laws and dragon language magic; creatures such as the Evil Eye of the Abyss and the Mind Flayer also have super powerful brains that are far beyond human beings; also, Mr. Mirror has a fallen angel in his hand The brain, isn’t it possible?

Lucian: "The fusion conditions for this colonial outfit are very demanding for ordinary professionals. It requires extremely high mental power, brain development, brain power, and cognitive ability. The higher the grade, the more difficult it is. However. I think you should give it a try. I have never been a puppet master of your level in my life."

"Yeah."

When Su Lun heard this, he didn’t say anything more.

With this big boss speaking, the alchemy manuscript is probably ready.

He didn't waste much time and directly expressed all the information he had stripped away through spiritual communication.

Every situation in the plane of gods, including the mage group, magic system, gods, and the Holy Army, was explained in detail except for the information about himself.

Normally, if I want to talk about ten days and ten nights of information, I will go through it in my mind in just a few minutes.

What’s more, what surprised Su Lun was that the “Lucian” in front of him didn’t have any meaning of accepting too much information at once, but had the meaning of “indigestion”.

Su Lun always felt that this method was just data transmission, wasn't it?

This is really a biological computer.

After the information exchange, Su Lun stood there.

"Lucian" also seems to need some time to process the information.

After a while, a voice sounded again in the laboratory: "So, I know."

He said directly: "Dora, inform the people coming from the military department to prepare to surround and kill the holy son of the Celestial Clan!"

Dora said seriously: "Yes, teacher!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an alchemical light screen lit up on a wall around him.

"Light and Shadow Transmission" is not a high-end technology in the field of alchemy, and can be done with many cursed objects refined from magic crystals.

But this is the first time Su Lun has seen such a clear picture.

Looking again, the surveillance footage from the library happened to appear on the screens.

In several pictures, a young man wearing a robe is facing him.

Suellen recognized this guy at a glance as Frank McAdam.

However, the moment the surveillance screen came on, the holy son of the Celestial Clan also found himself exposed. He raised his head suddenly and suddenly turned to look at the monitoring crystal.

As if across the screen, he looked at Su Lun and the others underground.

However, at the moment of exposure, a huge alchemy array suddenly lit up in the library, sealing the space instantly.

When Frank saw this scene, he had a sneer on his face. He opened his vertical eyes hidden in his forehead, and the light of [True Solution to All Things] shone out and directly made a big hole in the space seal.

Su Lun had seen this guy's methods before, so he wasn't surprised at all. He just murmured: "Sure enough, he has become stronger again."

In terms of means of escape, he even felt that this guy was no weaker than himself.

It’s normal to be able to walk.

On the side, No. 19 and Dora saw this method for the first time, with solemn expressions on their faces.

This trap that could easily trap an eighth-level professional was broken like this, and they couldn't imagine any means to stop that guy.

Frank knew that he had been discovered, so he calmly broke through the restriction and flew out without staying in the library longer.

At this moment, the top Marfa combatants who were ambushing in the academy also took action.

More than a dozen level 8 transformed mechanical warriors and two quasi-level 9 transformed mechanical warriors all started to attack, creating a huge commotion in the battle.

In an instant, fire exploded all over the huge campus.

Su Lun knew that those mechanical warriors were very strong, but this Frank was very special. [True Explanation of All Things] can decompose everything that can be understood into basic particles.

It is almost impossible to keep him by mere mechanical means.

He looked at the battle on the screen and frowned slightly. Even if he thought Mafa had some means, he was not optimistic about killing Frank.

In this way, the commotion on campus became louder and louder.

Mafa also mobilized a large force, various super powerful equipments were set up one after another, and all kinds of strange ability users were also in place.

No matter how strong the Holy Son Frank is, he cannot stand up to the national level fighting force alone.

Su Lun felt that this guy should run away.

But suddenly, Lucian's voice sounded in the laboratory again: "The Holy Son will soon break into the palace and establish his power. Dora, please inform Harris III to be careful."

Dora: "Yes!"

However, not long after these words were spoken, Lucian suddenly teleported towards the north in the surveillance screen.

After teleporting several times, he appeared in front of the Marfa Palace.

Seeing this miraculous prediction scene, Su Lun asked in surprise: "Senior, do you have prophecy ability?"

He was very curious, an alchemist from the mechanical department could also make prophecies from the mysterious department?

However, Lucian said: "No. It's just a calculation based on the existing information and the most likely result. The data will not be affected by subjective consciousness. As long as there is enough data analysis , even [the blasphemer] comes to a judgment that understands yourself better than your own."

"."

When Su Lun heard this, wasn’t this “big data analysis”?

Is this [blasphemer] stronger, or is the cyborg life transformed by Master Lucien stronger?

After a pause, Lucian added another sentence: "From the information I got from you before, this Holy Son Frank has a conceited character. Psychologically speaking, the sudden increase in power and identity will make His pride is even more morbid. Especially since his arm was broken by you before, he wants to do some eye-catching events to prove the difference of his 'holy son' in front of the people of the gods. Moreover, now Mafa's military strength The plane passage was blocked, and there were a lot of casualties in the plane of gods. Those guys also urgently needed some death deterrents to shock the people in the alchemy plane. Killing Emperor Marfa is one of the best shocks. So I deduced that, He will go to the palace. Based on the combat power he showed just now, the calculated result is that he only has a 17% chance of killing Harris III. But unfortunately, he has a 97% chance of inviting the will of God to come. Calculated The result is that Harris III will die."

There is no emotion in his tone, he is as calm as a machine.

The emperor will be killed?

When Su Lun heard this, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.

This understatement is not like telling another fact that may make Ma Fa collapse.

This is like a "prophetic" analytical ability, it is really strong.

Could it really happen?

Su Lun was doubtful.

Big data analysis also has errors.

But Dora on the side seemed convinced. She said in shock: "Teacher, His Majesty will be killed, won't you take action?"

Lucian still responded: "It's not worth it. If I take action now, the outcome of the plane invasion war will be decided in advance."

The tone was so sensible that it was almost indifferent.

He doesn't seem to care at all about the life or death of an emperor.

It’s not that it’s impossible, it’s that it’s not worth it.

When Su Lun heard this, his eyes were stern, but he understood.

Mafa’s apparent combat power consists of various mechanical armors, and this one is Mafa’s “trump card”.

The plane war has just begun, and the trump card has been exposed, which will inevitably have a negative impact on the war situation.

The emperor can be re-established after his death, but Lucian cannot be exposed for the time being.

At least, it's not worth exposing yourself for a Son who has a high probability of not being able to stay.

And even if you kill him, it will have no positive impact on preventing the plane invasion.

The atmosphere in the laboratory suddenly became very solemn because of this analysis.

Su Lun looked at the surveillance screen carefully and was also very curious as to whether things would develop in the direction Lucian inferred.

The battle on the screen continues.

Lucian's analysis also continued.

"The Holy Son is pretending to attack Ximen. He has already discovered where Harris III is hiding."

"He wants to use mass destruction magic to kill people for fun in the slums. Dora, ask the military to activate the God-killing Cannon to force him to leave the Delan neighborhood. Prepare for the will of the outer gods to come and activate the hunting plan."

"."

The more Su Lun listened, the more frightened he became.

Although he himself had predicted some of Frank's actions in advance, he could never achieve such accuracy.

Almost every step of Lucien's analysis accurately predicted Frank's actions.

Mr. Black also has a similar ability to predict, but it is through mind-reading in battle.

As for this person, he was purely analyzed through intelligence data, and he was so decisive that he seemed not to be affected by emotional factors at all.

Listening and listening, Su Lun was completely impressed by this ability.

He had a lot on his mind.

This [blasphemer]’s breeding equipment is almost a top-notch breeding equipment for any alchemist.

The Holy Son Frank now has the combat power of an eighth-level professional, and is proficient in almost all laws of the same level.

He cannot be restrained, but he can restrain everything.

No one can kill him.

The battle lasted for more than half an hour, and finally the scene was almost exactly the same as Lucien had predicted.

The will of the gods came, Frank descended to earth, and used a magic trick to penetrate an eighth-level modified mechanical warrior of the Imperial Palace Forbidden Group, penetrate a top-level defensive treasure, and behead the Marfa Emperor Harris III on the spot. kill.

Emperor Marfa

Dead!

Died under this magical technique that is currently unstoppable.

Mafa did not lose in the tactics and courage of the guards, but in the crushing gap in the upper limit of the plane.

In everyone's shocked eyes, Frank seemed to prove himself with this move, and walked away with a big smile.

Looking at the messy Marfa Palace in the surveillance screen, Su Lun's face was also very solemn.

No one spoke in the laboratory for a long time.

At this time, Lucian's voice rang out: "The situation is very bad."

The tone of describing the terrible situation was still calm.
