Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 215: Mechanical puppet, hair, bathing

After killing several members of the Raigadi family, the feeling of being missed in Su Lun's heart finally disappeared.

He returned to the official road, once again mixed in with the crowd returning from the escape, and walked slowly towards the old town of Lingdun.

Looking at the towering city wall, Su Lun couldn't help but feel a little sad.

After being chased and cornered, he fled out of the city in embarrassment and went hunting in the wilderness for refuge.

Back this time, this once mysterious giant city has been completely unveiled.

Black Tower, Mine, Slavery, Exile

This is the "truth" that the gangster could never have seen in his eyes.

It turns out that the scenery seen from a high place is indeed different...

After entering the city, Su Lun didn't run around.

He went to South City Cross territory and returned to Green Street.

This is the place he is most familiar with and makes people feel comfortable.

Fortunately, his face is not registered with the Umbrella Organization, so he won't be stared at when wandering on the street.

The city is still lively, with factory steam boilers emitting white smoke and people coming and going on the streets.

If there was such a big accident in the Dawn Ruins, many people would probably die in the inner city. But for the common people in the outer city, the big men in the inner city are two different worlds from them.

When it’s time to eat, when it’s time to drink, life seems to be no different.

This big deal does not prevent them from earning a salary of two thousand liso per month.

Su Lun found a hotel near Green Street and started living a regular life again.

Now he always feels that there is not enough time and needs a lot of time to meditate, study, manufacture, research, and practice

Although he is at the second level now, he can be considered a first-rate master in Old Lingdun. Even against level three, there is still a slight chance of winning.

But this level is far behind in the ground world.

What Mr. Tingjing means is that after Qianjou and the others advance to the fourth level, they will rush into the tower.

Time is running out, Su Lunyao should improve his strength as soon as possible

A few days passed in a blink of an eye.

Su Lun stayed in the hotel room and did not go out.

During this period, Sabina also came once and brought a lot of top-secret news.

The news of Princess Teresa’s death has been confirmed. The inner city is in turmoil and many people have died.

Almost half of the top leaders of the umbrella organization have been eliminated.

Because Sabina had made some preparations in advance, not only was she not implicated, but she was promoted to a third-level professional. And because of the high-ranking official Peacock in the inner city, she was promoted to the inner city and became the most powerful and top group of people in the umbrella organization.

This also provided Su Lun with more top-secret information.

On the other hand, after the news of the ruins came back, the head of the Reyes family suddenly changed from a stable business situation. Carnegie Reyes, the owner of the family, began to frantically sell off his property and company shares, collecting a large amount of cash in his hands.

Others didn't know why, but they thought that the hunting team in the Reiss Changfang was wiped out and that they were going to be in ruins.

Su Lun knew that he was preparing to leave the tower.

The Reyes family was supported by Mr. Jing, so they will naturally go out together this time.

On this day,

In room 303 of the Musketeer Hotel.

A variety of materials and mechanical accessories are densely placed in the room, and there are countless silk threads hanging various materials in the air.

Su Lun is controlling the eight-armed spider spear and tinkering with a mechanical puppet modified with [PZ-911 mechanical limbs]. This is the "Fourth Generation of Iron Man".

The hotel does not have the conditions of a sophisticated laboratory, and there is no air circulation or filtration system. The room is filled with a volatile poisonous gas that smells like rust. Su Lun was wearing a crow's mouth gas mask and was installing a mechanical arm with a miniature steam boiler on the mechanical puppet.

There is white spray paint with the words [BHⅦ Steam Hammer] on the robotic arm.

This is the loot from the previous harvest of the Duke's Mansion.

Even in the ground world, it is the most advanced robotic arm in the world.

With this air hammer installed, the mechanical puppet can punch with the power of a third-level meat professional, and can easily penetrate the plate armor of an armored vehicle with one punch.

While his hands were busy, Spider Spear, the controller behind Su Lun, also took out a piece of heather stem soaked in oil from a flask not far away. Weighed, cut, calculated the dose, and threw it into the burning crucible on the table nearby. The excess was put back into the bottle to prevent oxidation. After some stirring, another spider spear adjusted the fire, and the orange-yellow metallic liquid in the crucible began to boil violently

Multitasking has become more sophisticated, and the brain can handle more things at the same time.

He alone is worth the work efficiency of ten others.

Su Lun calculated the time, took out the newly refined solution from the crucible, took a special rune pen, dipped it in the golden liquid, and began to draw runes on the mechanical puppet

The Ruins of Dawn has harvested thousands of elite memory fragments. His rune drawing skills are now extremely proficient and have reached the "master level". He is also very proficient in drawing third-level runes.

But now he is still very careful, layer after layer, and the more he paints, the more complicated he becomes.

After the runes were outlined, a magical scene was staged under his pen. The runes exuded golden light, as if they were alive, turning with a special law.

This is not an ordinary rune, but a wind variant of the "Rune Rune" [Super Load Rune].

Rune runes are a kind of divergent thinking. If you want to fiddle with the runes you need, it requires a lot of experimentation and wonderful inspiration.

But, as Sir Isaac said, these were the best of times.

Standing on the shoulders of giants gave Suellen too much convenience. Those ancient great alchemists compiled their research into books. Among the books he brought out from the cursed space of [Dawn Central Prison], there were many finished rune drawings. You don’t have to study it yourself, you can just use it

Not long after, some of the runes were drawn, and Su Lun let out a long breath.

Drawing runes of the same level is several times more difficult than ordinary runes, and if you make a slight mistake, you will fall short.

He looked at the results in front of him with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Grabbing the void with five fingers of one hand, the mechanical puppet slowly stood up. The boiler was activated, and the runes on its body also lit up at the same time. The rich wind element condensed around the puppet, lifting up the several hundred kilograms of its body.

"The data calculated before is indeed correct. The weight-bearing rune reduces the weight of the puppet by 90%, barely reaching the level of flexibility. The energy consumption is also within an acceptable range"

Su Lun tried to make the mechanical puppet move and moved its joints. It was still flexible and his brows gradually relaxed.

He recorded some data of this attempt in detail in his notebook, and then analyzed it to himself: "The mechanical puppet has not re-armored yet, and its attack power is almost the same, but if it wants to reach the level of combat, it still needs It requires a significant increase in weight, and third-level runes cannot achieve the current effect. Moreover, ordinary refined steel cannot be engraved with such complex runes. It must be a high-grade magic material. If you want to mass-produce it, not to mention the cost, the materials It’s a big problem”

Thinking of this, Su Lun rustled down something in his notebook again.

This was originally an attempt.

Now it turns out that his direction of thinking is completely fine.

Through technology, runes and some special materials, it is possible to create flexibly controllable mechanical puppets.

The shortcomings of the machine are indeed very obvious, clumsy, slow response and low sensitivity

But the advantages are also obvious, strength, defense, cost

But it has magical effects that cannot be ignored in certain battles, such as siege! positional warfare! Human sea battle! Large-scale mechanical war!

As a time traveler, Su Lun does not reject mechanical technology, because technology is constantly innovating and developing. The potential is as limitless as alchemy.

Alchemy + machinery can definitely create magical sparks.

"There is still a lot of difference at the technical level. It would be great if we could get the research information on the 'Super Mechanical Warrior'. Unfortunately, it is a top secret of the Duke's Palace, and Sabina cannot have access to it."

Su Lun muttered in his heart and realized his own shortcomings.

Thinking of this, another idea came to his mind: "The mechanical technology of the Luying Empire is still relatively low, but Marfa is the holy land of mechanical alchemists. You must visit it if you have the opportunity."

After testing the mechanical puppet, Su Lun started tinkering with his rune puppets and silk threads again.

A few days ago, he peeled off the soul fragments of the fifth-level assassin and mastered [Wind Element Cutting]. Su Lun has been studying it for the past few days and found that this ability is also very compatible with his profession.

He originally wanted to use the cutting ability of silk thread to pass on to the puppet to improve the puppet's armor-breaking properties. But after some experimentation, he found that the effect was also great when used directly on silk thread!

Under normal circumstances, no matter how strong the witch's hair is, it cannot withstand more than the second level of wind element condensation. It would be like soft meat thrown into a meat grinder and minced to pieces.

But the toughness is not enough, you can use toughness runes to make it up.

Carving runes on hair is a difficult skill.

Fortunately, Su Lun's rune skills are solid, and this attempt actually worked. It's just that the efficiency is a bit low. With the eight-armed spider spear and both hands, if you work for a whole day, you can probably only carve something twenty or thirty meters long.

Su Lun wore a loupe commonly used by machinists, and carefully carved on the hair with the help of several times magnified images. After working for a long time, a silk thread exuding a special silver brilliance was in the hand, poured into the wind element, and the hair suddenly became sharp, as if looking at the edge of a knife, which was visible to the naked eye.

"Hoo~"

The completion was good, Su Lun let out a breath.

He moved his fingers slightly, and his hair fell lightly in the air.

When it landed on the wooden table leg, it easily cut off the table leg without even using any force.

Seeing this effect, Su Lun narrowed his eyes slightly.

The flowing wind element is like a high-frequency rotating cutting machine. It may seem subtle, but it is the sharpest thing of the third level that Su Lun has ever seen.

Although the hair is still very brittle, the sharpness is achieved to the extreme. The third-level wind law condenses this special hair, which can easily cut through the defense of steel armor and third-level professionals.

When used properly, cutting up professionals below level three is like chopping melons and vegetables.

With this invention, Su Lun has a new trump card.

Su Lun had no plans to go out, and originally wanted to get a few more meters of rune hair.

Unexpectedly, the communicator rang at this time, and it turned out to be a young gambling-addicted woman asking for a drink.

"Sister Senjo has advanced to the fourth level?"

Su Lun heard the message from the communicator and guessed something.

I didn’t see her again the last time I left the ruins.

But considering that I had obtained so many [Sun God Stones] before, I should have gone into retreat to break through.

Thinking of this, Su Lun did not stay in the hotel anymore, packed up the materials and walked out

Kay lives in a basement not far from the Suellen Hotel.

He and Su Lun had similar schedules, staying in the basement and training like crazy every day.

Qianjo originally made an appointment with him, but the guy's blue skin had not faded yet and he was too embarrassed to go out, so they didn't go together.

Su Lun rode his motorcycle alone to Norton Street.

The entertainment venue on Green Street was destroyed, and gambling stalls, pubs, and custom baths were all moved here.

I haven’t been here for a few months, and this place has become more and more prosperous and lively.

This is Senjo's territory.

Her apparent identity is still that of a member of the Cross Society.

The motorcycle was parked on the side of the road, and a few leather-clad punk-style gangsters squatted on the street, looking at the stranger Su Lun.

Su Lun felt very familiar. This was his job on Green Street.

He knew the rules and paid out fares to the Cross Society spectators, and then asked casually: "Hey, brother, have you seen Sister Senjo?"

The little boss with an afro and a lip ring was stunned when he heard it. The person who could ask questions in a tone of voice was obviously from the Taoist community, so he responded: "Sister Qianjo is at the Lisboa Casino"

"Thank you~"

When Su Lun heard this, he felt dumbfounded.

Sure enough, it was right not to go to the promised pub.

The young woman addicted to gambling has money in her pocket, but she can’t walk past the gambling stall.

He walked straight towards the photo of the gambling stall with purple-red lights in the distance.

Along the way, various pimps came forward to strike up a conversation.

"Sir, do you want a girl? The top quality just sent from the inner city, a real noble lady~"

"Brother, are you drinking? Our Blue Moon Tavern has the best girls and the best wine."

"How many psychedelics do you want? It is produced by a licensed alchemist, guaranteed to be good"

""

The environment is very noisy. Here there is feasting, wine and meat, and there are blackmails, beatings, murders and corpses in the dark alleys not far away.

Su Lun always had a relaxed smile on his face. This was the outer city and the environment he was familiar with.

I entered the gambling booth and exchanged some chips. Under the guidance of the scantily clad girl, I easily found Qiantiao who was gambling in the VIP room.

She was still wearing a battle kimono, revealing her sinister big flowery arms.

"Seven o'clock! Seven o'clock! Seven o'clock! Oh, damn"

Looking at Su Lun coming, she was still dizzying seriously.

Su Lun thought that Qianjiao would become very cold after advancing to the fourth level. After all, in Old Lingdun City, level four already belongs to super-level masters. But the reality is that she hasn't changed at all, she still has the same carefree personality.

After losing the card, I happened to see Su Lun coming. She gestured to the position next to her and greeted warmly: "Come here~"

Su Lun walked over, and Qian Tiao put his arm around his shoulders as usual, "What's your next pledge?"

The two of them stayed together for a few days in the hotel at the hunting camp last time, and the gambling-addicted young woman never treated her like an outsider.

Seeing how happy she was gambling, Su Lun didn't say much, so he sat next to her and gambled with her.

In the end, I didn’t get the drink I wanted and ended up gambling in a gambling stall for several hours.

Sister Qiantiao lost all her chips again.

Then he was reluctantly pulled out of the gambling stall gate by Su Lun

It was already twelve o'clock in the evening when we left the gambling stall.

But in Norton Street, it’s busy time.

As soon as Qianjo came out, he was still thinking about the bet just now, and said in a low voice: "Oh, if I had known that I should have left when you came, I would still have won by then."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was an old gambler.

If you win, you won’t leave, but if you lose, you will be upset.

Su Lun listened and smiled, "Sister Qiantiao, why did you ask me to come out?"

"Drink."

Qian Tiao thought about it, pursed his lips again, and changed his words: "Forget it, I lost the money and I am not in the mood for drinking anymore."

After a pause, she said again: "Let's go, please go to the bath."

""

Su Lun also felt it didn't matter.

It doesn’t matter if you drink or take a bath.

With this total, the two went to pick up the car.

While walking, Su Lun asked casually: "Sister Qiantiao, why do you like gambling so much?"

This is also a question that has always puzzled him.

It stands to reason that the willpower of high-level professionals is much better than that of ordinary people.

Furthermore, for a master of Senjou's level, winning or losing millions would not have much impact on her, and it shouldn't be that attractive.

But she never tired of it.

Qianjou replied casually: "Because I like it."

She asked instead: "Don't you think gambling can make people happy?"

Su Lun looked bored, "I don't think so."

Theoretically, gambling does bring great pleasure to people. When you win money, your dopamine secretion may be dozens of times greater than having sex. This is also how gambling addiction comes about.

There's nothing wrong with her saying that.

But that’s for ordinary people,

Rather than a high-level professional.

Qianjo glanced at him with a look of disgust as if he had missed out on one of the great joys of life. He did not talk more about this topic and said, "Where are the car keys?"

After a pause, he added: "My car was just mortgaged to a gambling stall"

Qianjou didn't regard Su Lun as an outsider, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all when he said this.

""

Su Lun's eyes twitched and he threw the key to her.

Qianjou, a gangster lady, would never sit in the back seat, but Su Lun didn’t mind. It wasn’t her first time anyway.

Qianjo's character is very easy to get along with in the gang. He has no cadre airs and is very familiar with the gang members. Seeing her pick up a pretty boy, the members of the Cross Society started to boo.

"Hey~Sister Senjo, have you changed your taste?"

"Hahaha, this is the first time I see a man in the back seat, Senjo-san."

"Tsk, tsk, boy, come on, we are optimistic about you~"

""

It was like a big man laughing and joking, but Qian Jiao didn't mind. He raised a friendly international gesture and scolded with a smile: "Go away~ enjoy the show!"

The throttle roared and the locomotive sped out.

Su Lun was not as nervous as before, so he naturally put his arms around Qian Tiao's slender waist, feeling warm and warm in his arms.

"A trip around?"

"Okay."

They did not go directly to the soup room, but took a drive through various streets and alleys in Nancheng.

Because it was late at night, leaving the entertainment district, there were very few people in other districts.

The roar of the locomotive seemed to be the only sound in this silent night.

The speed of the motorcycle is not too fast, and Qianjiao looks content.

Su Lun, who was sitting in the back seat, was also a little bored. He asked: "Sister Qianjou, have you advanced to the fourth level?"

Qian Tiao's voice mixed with the wind and poured into his ears: "Yeah."

The understatement left Su Lun with no topic to talk about.

He also thought that Qian Yue went out to drink by himself because Yao was celebrating his advancement.

It seems that this gambling addicted young woman doesn’t take it seriously at all.

No one spoke for a long while, and the atmosphere was slightly sarcastic.

Qianjou probably felt the same, and suddenly spoke again, mentioning the previous topic: "Didn't you just ask me why I like gambling?"

Listening to this tone, Su Lun became interested and asked, "Huh?"

After pondering for a moment, Qianjou said: "The Rakshasa girl is a lone star in the sky. She is destined to be alone all her life, and she lives to kill. If you don't find other fun, life will be boring."

""

When Su Lun heard this, he understood.

It seems that some talents do have some special disadvantages.

For example, catwomen are naturally afraid of dogs, and people with fire element talents do not like water

And this [A-022-Rakshasa Girl]'s talent is strong or not, but she actually has such a "Lonely Star"?

Not long after, the motorcycle stopped at the door of "A Kun's Soup Room".

Su Lun has been here many times, and he cleaned himself up under the guidance of the maid. Because the road is already familiar, there is no need for anyone to guide you. Because it was a guest brought by Senjou, the maid asked many questions.

Su Lun went straight to the "Three Springs Pool" where the mixed bathing was taking place.

The few times I have been here before, there are usually some of Qianjiao's fat ladies who are capable in this pool.

But this time, there was no one else.

However, there is an unexpected person in this pool.

"Mrs. Philo?"

This person is the mysterious Mrs. Philo, the financial backer of the Cross Society, whom Su Lun once had a relationship with.

Su Lun looked at this person with a slightly strange expression on his face.
