Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 24: Why did you burn her to death

"Teacher."

Su Lun respectfully bowed to the great alchemist from a thousand years ago.

"Yeah."

Seria nodded and showed a gentle smile.

She looked at Su Lun, her eyes full of relief, "Although I missed some time, I finally met you. Unfortunately, I don't have much time to teach you, so as a teacher, I will give you some meeting gifts."

Said, Seria took out the glass bottle containing the [Fallen Angel Heart], pinched the seal with one hand and shouted softly: "Blocked, lifted!"

Looking again, the runes on the glass bottle also lit up.

At this moment, Su Lunzhi felt that what was contained in this ancient bottle was not a beating heart, but a wild beast.

The leaked aura gave him a mountain-like pressure.

Domineering, sacred, evil, like a torrential flood of dark spiritual power

It gives people a sense of humility that makes them feel like they have to worship before them.

It is a feeling of oppression caused by low-level creatures looking up to high-level life forms.

That kind of aura is like looking up at the starry sky, endlessly deep, yet too high to reach.

"This is the breath of God"

Su Lun was surprised in his heart.

In the past, "god" was just a simple word in his cognition.

It is indescribable, indescribable, but ultimately too thin.

It’s nothing more real than this.

For the first time, Su Lun felt the presence of God.

Seria looked at the heart in the glass jar with foggy eyes, and said: "This is part of the law of god-level creatures. I am not asking you to understand, but I want you to know how big the world is. Only by standing high can you see farther. A truly great alchemist needs extensive knowledge and a broader vision."

Su Lun nodded seriously, his eyes shining brightly.

At this moment, he deeply understood the meaning of these words.

After all, the frog in the well doesn’t know how big the world is.

But now, he saw the vast world beyond the wellhead for a moment.

Speaking of this, Ceria continued: "Isaac once said that we are in the worst of times, but also the best of times, because we stand on the shoulders of giants. Although today's alchemical civilization It is not as glorious as it was in the Dawn Era, but the knowledge has remained. The sages in history have left us too much precious knowledge, which is the real 'treasure'. But that precious knowledge is buried in the dust of history. , we must discover, innovate, and continue to explore”

This teaching method was simple and crude, but it shocked Su Lun incomparably.

But his gaze was also extremely firm.

The more exciting this world is, the more he looks forward to it.

Su Lun calmed down the turmoil in his heart and bowed respectfully: "Thank you, teacher, for your teaching."

"You are very good."

Seria looked at Su Lun's performance under the pressure of the god-level, and nodded with satisfaction, "If there is time, I will definitely let you lay the foundation and slowly come into contact with the truth of this world. In Alchemy The world in the eyes of a warlock is far more exciting than that of ordinary people."

She changed the topic and said: "But obviously, no. Therefore, the gift for my disciple must be the best."

Hearing this, Su Lun also started to look forward to it.

At this time, Ceria took out the golden card from before, raised her hand and flicked it.

The card shattered, and a simple hexagonal copper lamp appeared in front of him.

Sulun naturally recognized that this was the [Vulkan's Furnace Lamp]!

“It’s a lot more convenient to have this alchemy item”

Ceria smiled and muttered to herself.

At this time, she placed the glass bottle on the ground with both hands, and quickly created a set of extremely complicated warlock seals with her hands.

Not only his hands, but also the eight-armed spider spear behind him seemed to be affecting some laws. With her as the center, fire element starlight like fireflies slowly condensed in the air. One by one, more and more stars gathered, and finally formed a circle of fire storm

Looking again, a fiery red nine-pointed star alchemy formation suddenly appeared on the floor of the room.

Su Lun's eyes trembled as he looked at the mysterious lines on the formation.

The level of this technique is so high that it is completely incomprehensible.

Seraya pinched the last warlock seal and whispered softly: "Alchemy · Furnace World!"

As soon as these words fell, the nine-pointed star formation on the floor suddenly seemed to melt through the floor, and a wave of heat swept through the entire room.

Looking again, Su Lun saw a world of magma and sea of ​​fire, as if through this small formation opening, he was connected to a world of furnaces.

And the hexagonal copper lamp fell in, and the lamp cover opened, as if the flame demon imprisoned in Zhongli was released, and a violent fire elemental power suddenly shot up.

The terrifying elemental pressure, even through the formation, gave Su Lun a numb feeling, as if even a tiny bit of it could burn him to death.

However, fortunately, before I could experience this feeling in detail, the nine-pointed star suddenly disappeared.

The hexagonal copper lamp and the heart were locked in that furnace world

After stuffing the [Fallen Angel's Heart] and the copper lamp into the alchemy formation, Ceria breathed a sigh of relief.

Like the housewife who put the turkey in the oven, she suddenly became idle with nothing to do.

She looked at Su Lun and asked, "By the way, have you brought your notes?"

Suellen knew what the notes in her mouth were, so he took out the volume [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript III] from the space.

Seria held the notes like a housewife holding a recipe, flipping through them casually, and said to herself: "Well, there is still a slight deviation. Isaac has made the final version of the design manuscript more perfect."

As she spoke, she controlled the spider spear and took out some more materials from the cabinet, as if to add seasonings to the dishes in the pot. She raised her hand and casually opened a gap in the ground and threw all the materials in.

At this time, she clapped her hands and looked like she was done.

"That's it now. Refining [Isaac's Alchemical Heart] will take a while, we have to wait"

She looked at Su Lun, and suddenly thought of something again, and said, "Do you want to know where this heart came from?"

Su Lunzi naturally guessed something, "Teacher, have you hunted a **** from the abyss?"

Selea is a very kind person. She doesn’t have a rigid and serious image as a teacher, and she is very communicative.

"It's not me. I'm not strong enough to fight a god. Isaac did it."

She spoke in a relaxed tone and continued: "Once upon a time, an abyssal **** discovered the cracks in this space passage, and then forcibly broke the seal and brought the abyssal creatures into our plane. Look at this... The earth is a regular plane, but its resources are very rich, so he wanted to enslave the world. Later, Isaac defeated him before he could take action."

The tone was understated and sounded dramatic.

A **** was defeated like this in a plane without gods?

But Su Lun was also curious. Isaac was known as a "demigod" and should not have reached the level of a god, but he actually killed a god.

How is this done?

Before he was curious, Ceria seemed to have guessed his doubts and said directly: "Although alchemists are physically weak, they also have some other advantages, that is, we can use foreign objects to use alchemy. It has abilities that far exceed the level of the body itself. Moreover, [Controller of Fate] is a very powerful talent, and Isaac has developed it to a very powerful level. His combat power is not inferior to that of ordinary gods."

Su Lun knew that the power at that level could not be understood even though he said it, and asked himself a more curious question, "Teacher, that **** was killed? Then why can this heart still beat? Is it also a **** level? Some special abilities?"

"No, He is not dead."

Seria shook her head and said: "A god-level powerhouse cannot be killed as long as the divine fire is not extinguished. Isaac originally wanted to kill him, but due to some special reasons, of course, the most important thing is, He wants to use this rare god-level material to make some attempts. For example, this [Isaac Alchemy Heart]."

Su Lun guessed something and said directly: "Teacher, do you want to give this thing to me as a gift? But, this is Mr. Jing's material. And"

His face became a little embarrassed.

After all, the heart was stolen from the laboratory by No. 19, the hexagonal copper lamp was found by Mr. Mirror and the others, and these other things

Although Su Lun also coveted the things made from god-level materials, he also felt that it was inappropriate.

"Mr. Mirror?"

When Seria heard the name, she obviously guessed something. A gentle smile appeared on her face and she murmured to herself: "She actually gave herself such a name."

After a pause, she said firmly: "No. She won't mind if I give it to you."

""

After hearing this, Su Lun immediately confirmed his previous guess.

Mr. Mirror is the "old monster" of Dawn City who has lived for more than a thousand years.

Furthermore, judging from Seria’s tone, they must still know each other.

Since he is a teacher, Su Lun does not need to be so outspoken and asks directly: "Teacher, do you know Mr. Jing?"

"She didn't tell you?"

Seria did not admit or deny it, a faint smile of unknown thought escaped from her eyes.

After pondering for a moment, she showed no intention of solving Su Lun's doubts. She just said: "Alchemy is already very boring, so let's leave some fun in life. You should be surprised when you see her in the future."

""

Suellen shrugged as he listened.

I didn’t ask further questions.

As she said, the secret of Mr. Mirror’s identity is a small pleasure in life.

When he saw the notes, he thought of something and said, "By the way, teacher. I heard from Mr. Jing that there is a big secret about alchemy hidden in the notes?"

Now that the wives of the parties involved in the manuscript are here, let’s make random guesses with others and just ask them directly.

"Yes."

Seria nodded and revealed a secret that belonged to ancient history for Suellen.

"Issac left documents and classics from the Dawn Era and developed a set of 'epic-level' alchemical plant equipment. He wanted alchemists to have some abilities of true god-level before they were god-level. Therefore, Just need some god-level materials."

After a pause, she added: "However, my impression now is that he seems to have just written the first draft."

Su Lun listened quietly, obviously there was more to come.

"Of course, the alchemy manuscript, this is just the content of the notebook. Its secrets go beyond that. I heard Isaac once said that he wanted to hide the secret record he discovered in the notebook."

A hint of cunning flashed across Seria's face, and she continued: "We once discovered a secret that points to the ultimate in alchemy. As long as you find five notebooks, you can see the secret we left behind."

It's like a fun treasure hunt game.

They hid their secrets in their notes.

Wait for future generations to gather together, and then find the secret.

Su Lun was very interested: "The ultimate secret?"

Seria said: "The reason why the Akavian civilization was so glorious in the Dawn Era is said to be because of the five god-level elders of the 'Rosicrucian Order' who created the civilization, which is what you see in the basement of Storm Manor. The five statues they arrived had seen the origin of the alchemy lineage [Jade Record] left over from the mythical period, and were inspired. That's why they created such a powerful alchemical civilization."

Su Lun heard another new term: "Jade Record?"

"Yes. In ancient books, it is also called the Emerald Slate. The legend of Emerald Green is the origin of alchemy and records the ultimate secret of alchemy."

Ceria nodded and said this, but she frowned and asked herself: "It's strange, why can't I remember what the secret is, I only remember that it is related to [Jade Record]"

It's like a drinking video, obviously missing some relevant memories.

After pausing for a moment, she thought about something, and relief appeared on her brows: "According to what you said, I just miss it. So my memory must be missing part of it. There are some things that I can't fully explain to you."

"Oh."

Su Lun didn't feel any excitement after hearing this. It was too early for him to get in touch with secrets at that level.

What is the ultimate secret of alchemy?

There are four other notes that I don’t know where they are,

This thing is a bit unrealistic for him.

Now he is still in the "mine".

It is estimated that after at least level 5 or 6, one can truly be considered a master on the ground and may be qualified to contact them

While chatting, Su Lun suddenly thought of the previous commission.

"By the way, teacher. I think it is necessary to tell you something about me."

"What's wrong?"

"I have seen a little girl of the ghost species in Storm Manor before. She said her name was 'Pestoya'."

Judging from various previous situations, Su Lun was not sure that she must be this person’s daughter, so she chose her words very carefully.

When Seria heard this, guilt and love immediately appeared in her eyes.

She asked with uncontrollable anticipation: "Have you seen her, is she okay?"

"Yeah. I met twice."

Su Lun took the lead: "I don't know if her current state is good or bad. She has now become a strange 'ghost' state."

After a pause, he then added: "Pestoya entrusted me to ask you a question."

Before Su Lun could say anything, Ceria had already said, "Are you asking me why I wanted to burn her to death?"

Her face was calm, but she seemed to have remembered something, and her eyes were filled with tears.
