Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 180: Hunting Frenzy


The Oliver family suffered heavy losses this time, and Young Master Danzig was furious.

The five major chaebols in the camp have joined forces to catch the rampant "SS wanted criminal Su Lun", and the search news is getting bigger and bigger.

For the next period of time, Su Lun would change hotels every two or three days, in order to make himself look more like an ordinary hunter and avoid being targeted by keen espionage agents because of his permanent residence.

Even so, I encountered knocks on the door several times to check the ward.

Nothing went wrong though.

In the large amount of memories that Su Lun harvested, there are countless identities that can withstand scrutiny and can be traced.

He even forged various identity documents for his false identity to cooperate with the inspection, and the inspection personnel never saw any flaws.

Although he moved frequently, Su Lun actually stayed in the hotel and didn't go out much.

I didn’t go to the Hunting Guild, I didn’t go to the market, I didn’t go to the tavern...

Too much knowledge was gained from the last battle, and he needed a lot of time to digest what he had gained.

After almost half a month of commotion, many other wanted criminals were caught, but he was not caught.

The movement stopped for a while.

.......

On this day, Room 301 of Rose Hotel.

The small room is filled with various books and tools.

Because he almost always used meditation instead of sleeping, Suellen simply used the bed as a bookshelf, filled with various scrolls and research materials.

When Mr. Hei gave him a set of introductory books from Black Tower Academy, he had been reading very slowly. Because there is no one to guide you, it takes a lot of time to comprehend and understand the unfamiliar knowledge.

But after the last battle, more than a hundred fragments of the inner city's elite were harvested, and those basic knowledge almost made up for almost all of Su Lun's shortcomings in the low-level alchemy field.

But memories will be forgotten on their own, especially those harvested memories that are not very deep.

Su Lun did not want to waste this precious knowledge. In the past half month, he also took out the classics many times to read them one by one to deepen his impression and let the knowledge be truly imprinted in his mind.

Not just all kinds of knowledge.

After Su Lun harvested the memories of the puppet master Laue, his own ability to make puppets also skyrocketed.

Looking back, except for the [Black Hole Doll] that Mr. Hei helped make, all the dolls he made before were too rough.

The last battle also brought him a lot of inspiration,

Now, Su Lun plans to make a new batch of high-level puppets suitable for combat.

......

In the not spacious room, there was a blue light cross floating in the sky that covered the entire room.

On the cross, silver silk threads hung down, and there were seven or eight lotus-colored dolls hanging with their feet not touching the ground. There are also some unfinished severed hands and feet in the room, and carving tools are floating around, which looks very strange.

After Su Lun came back and carefully compared the spells on the scroll, he also discovered the missing parts of the [Puppet Theater] in his memory.

This is why I spend some time every day practicing the proficiency of this puppet secret.

It is obviously a room for one person, but there are often a group of people "dancing".

.......

At this moment, Su Lun is concentrating on installing a third head on a puppet.

At the same time, he also used his eight-armed spider arm to control the carving knife, carving shapes and inscribing rune grooves on four or five unformed pieces of wood...

On his own, he was making seven or eight dolls at the same time.

Busy,

And methodical.

Su Lun was wearing coarse work clothes, and his face had been dyed rainbow colors with various paints.

At this time,

There was a crisp sound of "click".

Su Lun frowned slightly.

I just tried it with silk thread, and as soon as the magic pattern was activated, the head of the newly made three-headed doll suddenly fell off, and rolled far away on the floor.

Su Lun didn't even look at the fallen wooden head. The silk thread hanging from the cross had already wrapped it up and handed it back to the workbench.

Like silk threads all over the room, they are all his "hands".

"Failed again..."

Su Lun held the broken position of the puppet, frowned and studied it, and muttered: "It seems that a three-headed doll is the limit. Any more heads will affect the stability of the structure, and will also cause Runes and enchantments conflict with each other..."

He analyzed the reason and recorded it in detail in the notebook beside him.

Probably because his energy was a little tired, Su Lun did not continue to study puppets after this failure.

As soon as the technique was completed, the cross on the ceiling disappeared, and the silk threads all over the room disappeared.

The Eight-Armed Spider Spear also put down its work and was busy collecting various materials and semi-finished products.

"Huh..."

Su Lun slowly exhaled a breath of air, stood up and moved his body joints.

He looked at the seven or eight finished puppets placed beside the wall with a satisfied smile, and said to himself: "I have almost mastered the commonly used second-level runes, and the rate of finished puppets has steadily increased. . All [Nightmare Dolls] are engraved with second-level runes. In the future, ordinary dolls will have a strong influence on high-level professionals..."

Suddenly, he thought of something, and a slight smile appeared in his eyes, "Tsk, tsk, if these high-level dolls are used to perform [Hundred Weird Night Walk], I'm afraid not many second-level professionals can handle it. Come on..."

The current puppets are no longer comparable to the ones half a month ago in terms of strength and efficacy.

If all kinds of tricks were to come out, Su Lun felt that even if he faced the original group of pursuers head-on, he would still have the strength to fight.

This is the puppet army that truly threatens high-level professionals.

However, there is also a problem that remains unresolved.

What did he think of? He frowned again and murmured: "Multitasking has reached its limit. This is a big problem..."

.......

Su Lun now has no shortage of puppets and means of control. The witch's hair can also perfectly solve the problem of tangled threads.

Even after mastering [Puppet Theater], the number and efficiency of puppet control have been greatly improved.

But the problem remains unresolved.

He discovered that it was not just him, but all puppet masters faced this dilemma, even Lloyd, known as the "Puppet Master".

That's the question of "actual" control quantity.

Su Lun is now very proficient in the skill of [multitasking], and has almost reached the limit of his current distractions.

Now he controls seven or eight puppets at the same time, and he can be as flexible and changeable as a real person, reaching 100% control;

But if the number of controls increases to more than ten, the action completion rate can reach about 70%;

With more than 20 pieces, the completion degree of the movements is only less than 40%;

To control a hundred objects at the same time, you can almost only do simple actions, such as changing direction, breathing fire...

Strictly speaking, the previous "Night Walk" is not a finished technique,

To be more precise, it is Su Lun's future career planning direction.

If you take it out now, it's probably just a bluff.

Even using the [Puppet Theater], it seems that countless puppets can be controlled accurately. But in fact, the quantity that can be precisely controlled cannot escape the shackles of this "distraction limit".

Suellen knew the source of the problem.

Because of the data panel, he had already discovered that pattern. That is, after the mental power value increases, this "distraction limit" also slowly increases.

But it's not exactly proportional.

Su Lun speculated that the amount and efficiency of mental power would affect this "distraction limit".

To solve this problem, he felt that he urgently needed a secret method of spiritual cultivation.

Furthermore, it was satisfying to harvest more than a hundred people last time, but he also clearly felt that if he continued to **** it without control, he would probably lose control of his mind.

.......

Su Lun did not continue to stay in the hotel room, but tidied up and planned to go out to find out the news.

In more than half a month, the last commotion has almost subsided.

There has been a new topic in the recent camp.

Then the "Hunting Frenzy" is coming!

The news from a month ago has only reached the ground in the past few days.

It is said that the Black Tower issued an order, requiring the major families in the inner city to send elite teams to hunt wilderness.

It's not just an elite group.

In order to prevent those big families from violating the rules, the Duke directly issued an order, requiring those big and respectable families to send the first heir to the Dawn Ruins in person.

The effect of this move is very obvious.

In order to protect the safety of the precious young masters and ladies in the family, the masters and ladies must send the strongest security team.

It was this order that directly mobilized a large number of high-level professionals in the inner city to hunt for wilderness, second level, or even third level!

Disobey?

The family was gone the next day.

In the feudal Old Rington, the Duke's Palace has unquestionable authority.

So during this time, the population of Dawn Camp increased dramatically.

Those gorgeously dressed young masters and ladies, with their luxuriously equipped personal guards, arrived one after another. There were also maids, housekeepers, and servants, tens of thousands of them, filling the entire hunting camp to capacity.

.......

The camp was so lively that Su Lun couldn’t stay at home anymore, so naturally he planned to go and have a look.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I looked in the corridor and saw a freckle-faced noble lady scolding her housekeeper.

Besides, there is a group of more than a dozen bodyguards armed with live ammunition.

"This **** place, the accommodation is so bad, you can't even rent a suite with a bathtub? There is no bathtub, what should I do if I take a bath every day? Butler Albert, how much more will it cost, can you find one for me? A decent suite?"

"Oh ~ Miss Sophia, it's not about money. The environment in the camp is like this. Even Miss Kunna from the Edward family, who came a day earlier than us, only found a single room that was half the size of yours. If the owner of the Rose Hotel hadn't been a friend of the master, this room would have been gone..."

"Really? Kunna's room is smaller than this?"

"It's absolutely true! We also came here the day before yesterday. The young master of the Leonard family had already pitched a tent for two nights because he missed the room arranged at the 'Blacksmith Hotel'. Now that he wants to go back, the room is already full. Oh, you probably don't think about the environment of the 'Blacksmith Hotel', because it is really terrible, ten times worse than here... at least ten times! Miss, why don't you stay here first, and I'll go take a look. Can you find a better one..."

"Humph..."

The resistance on the face of the arrogant freckled lady faded away when she heard that her friends from the same family were living in worse conditions than her own.

At this time, she happened to watch Su Lun, who was dressed as a hunter, walking out of the room.

The arrogant rooster-like neck immediately raised its head, showing an expression of disgust, "I would actually stay in a cheap hotel with a dirty hunter. Oh, my God, kill me... ”

After complaining, she dove into the room, and then slammed the door with a bang, showing her dissatisfaction.

The housekeeper also saw Su Lun, but suddenly he seemed to have discovered a treasure. His eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Sir, I would like to take the liberty to ask, can you give us your room?" ? You have also seen that there are too many people in our chamber of commerce, accommodation... Of course, as your generous compensation, I will pay ten times the room price..."

The tone was quite polite, but Su Lun raised his eyebrows slightly.

No wonder he clearly put up a "Do Not Disturb" sign, and the waiters knocked on the door to ask for a temporary price increase. The price increase was almost ten times that of half a month ago.

This turns out to be how the room was raised.

But he had no intention of transferring the room and responded: "Sorry, there are many people in my room."

As he said that, he didn't pay much attention to these people and left and went downstairs.

.......

I haven’t been out for the past two days, and there are crowds of people on the streets in the camp.

When Su Lun came out, the streets were filled with all kinds of young masters and young ladies, with their standard equipment of housekeepers and a group of guards.

The young ladies and young men from top families like the Reiss family have already received some news and arranged for personnel to come and stand in front of them. There are no problems with housing or anything like that.

When the younger masters of the family come, the problem becomes bigger.

The luxury hotel was already full, so they could only choose the cheap hotel where the hunters had stayed. Rooms with private bathrooms like the one Su Lun lived in before were hard to find.

This can make those delicate young masters and ladies suffer a lot. You can see various butler-looking people everywhere going to the hotel to inquire about where to stay, and then coming out in disgrace.

As Su Lun walked along, he happened to encounter one.

The fat young master in the team looked familiar, so he took another look.

"Master Charlie, oh, you are so lucky...I helped you book a luxury suite! It was Mrs. Melinda of the 'Ackerman Family' who helped you get it..."

"Hey, hey, I'm talking about old Mr. Franz. Accommodation is a small issue. Have you contacted the hunting group? We want a hunting group with real experience in pioneering! You don't really think that the Duke wants us. Are you here to stay at the ruins?"

"Master Charlie...this...I went to the hunting guild, and all the major hunting groups with registered levels have been hired. I only hired two heavy hunting groups... ."

"Oh my God, Franz, what are you still doing here? Go squat at the city gate, watch the hunting group come back, and sign the employment contract immediately! No matter how much it costs, within five days, I think I heard that you hired at least three hunting groups led by second-level professionals!"

"Yes, Master..."

The old housekeeper was trained to lose his temper. After handing over the key, he went to the city gate in dejection.

The fat man looked at the key in his hand, with a sad look on his face, and entered the hotel with a sigh.

Su Lun looked at the big fat man and thought he was familiar at first, but now he heard this style of doing things.

Isn’t it the little fat Charlie who took bribes from him in the cave?

"Haha..."

Seeing this guy's strong desire for survival, Su Lun smiled.

However, this guy's worries are not unreasonable. At least Su Lun agrees with his statement. The Duke's Palace asked them to come, and they were definitely not here for a spring outing.

Seeing this acquaintance, Su Lun raised his eyebrows, and a black-haired girl suddenly appeared in his mind.

Everyone’s first-in-line heir is coming, so...girl Reina is coming too?

Without much thought, Su Lun planned to visit the Wilderness Hunting Guild first.
