Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 327: Legendary!
Su Lun stayed in the library for several days.
Because it is an imperial residence, you don’t have to worry about being disturbed. The maids will bring you delicious food every day, so you can live a leisurely life.
Occasionally, Shenfu Yuzi would come over to read a book when she was free, and the two of them would chat about spiritual practice together. When Su Lun encounters some questions that he doesn't understand, he can also ask someone personally.
Su Lun knew that the higher up the library, the higher the value of reading the classics, so he read them all the way down from the third floor, the second floor, and the first floor.
Super high brain development and multi-tasking ability can greatly improve learning and memory abilities. There are also two cursed objects [Seraya's Blessing] and [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript], which are also small artifacts that assist learning...
Su Lun reads books very quickly and efficiently.
If he had enough time, he would probably be willing to stay in this library for a few months.
But the day of the "Black Sun Festival" was coming soon, and he always felt that something unexpected would happen, so he cherished these leisurely days even more.
One glance can lead to hundreds of lines, and one can read several books at a time.
Su Lun already has a solid reserve of knowledge and can understand many books almost at a glance.
Even for those skills that required understanding and comprehension, he could understand them if he could. If he couldn't understand them, he didn't spend too much time in the world to force them. Just keep it in your mind and digest it slowly when you have time later.
What's more, Miko, the royal princess, also gave him many transcripts.
Some look at it, and some take it.
Su Lun also thinks this friend can get along.
She can really help when things happen
This day.
This is Su Lun's eighth day in the library.
Tomorrow is the "Black Sun Festival",
He wanted to scan through the classics he was interested in as quickly as possible.
At this moment, the first floor of the library is like a silk cave, with crystalline threads everywhere.
Books are hung on the silk threads, and the sound of "rustling" books is constantly being turned in the air. Those hanging books seem to have invisible hands constantly flipping through them.
Many of the classics on the first floor were folklore literary stories. Su Lun looked at them roughly and almost only glanced at them. But those that can be collected by the royal family are naturally the masterpieces Shan Yin has accumulated over countless years, and he has not let them go.
After all, Su Lun also found some small pleasures in reading books these days.
He discovered some little secrets from these books that perhaps even the librarians didn't know.
For example: some "word puzzles" hidden in the original manuscripts are solved to be some kind of "forbidden magic", or some erased "historical facts" or "heterodox magic". There are even some "indescribable contents" that Miko said.
Su Lun finally understood why alchemists like to use various encryption methods to hide their research results.
In addition to keeping secrets from outsiders, it is also a way to deceive "high-level beings" who do not want lower-level beings to master the secrets of higher-level laws.
Usually, the value of taboo content is very high
At this moment, Su Lun untied the eight-armed spider spear and was immersed in his busy work.
There were seven or eight books placed in front of him, flipping through them from time to time.
His eyes scanned the words line by line, while Spider Spear was multitasking and busy with other things.
There is an alloy operating table in the room, and Su Lun is performing a precision surgery on himself.
He cut open the flesh and was carving some mysterious runes on the radius bone of his left arm.
The flesh and blood of the arm were turned out, and the white bones were exposed to the air. There was no abnormal color on Su Lun's face.
Because he has enough understanding of human anatomy, he knows the direction of every blood vessel and nerve, so everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
Thanks to the Spider Spear Reproduction Equipment, he was able to complete such complex surgery and engraving alone.
[Rune Body] This secret method requires refining one's own body as a curse. Su Lun has already drawn the runes on the skin. Now he needs to put the runes on the bones, blood vessels, and some necessary fascia and Soft tissue mountains draw runes. Then these runes with various functions are connected to form a sophisticated and complex rune system, which can exert some incredible functions.
This refining process is very difficult and requires high attainments in runes and some specific secret techniques.
It just so happens that Su Lun has it now.
With these, other risks can be completely ignored.
Su Lun has absolute calmness and multi-tasking thinking ability. The surgical process will be engraved with almost no subjective mistakes.
However, this process is a bit boring and not urgent at all.
Reading a book is a good way to kill time.
Su Lun finished the ulna, then the radius, then sutured the incision, and then started to work on the humerus of the upper arm
If there were outsiders here, they would probably be frightened by his crazy behavior.
Su Lun felt as calm as cutting someone else's flesh.
The "X serum" gives the body super self-healing ability, and with some alchemical potions, once the wound is sutured, the healing is almost visible to the naked eye.
Even if there is a shortage of some rare materials, there is a royal treasure house next door. It is good to have a princess friend, there is no shortage at all
Finally, the sun sets in the west.
Su Lun hurriedly carved the runes on the bones before the "Black Sun Festival" tomorrow.
He put away the surgical instruments and moved his hands and feet.
Infused with dark spiritual power, his body was covered with a dark golden luster, and his skin was covered with dense mysterious lines.
"The basic structure of [Rune King Kong] has been set up, and now the physical defense capability has been greatly improved. This strength should be able to support the fourth level of hormonal rampage. It may be possible to break through to the fifth level in a short time after comprehending the advanced rune language. After that, there’s a big ceiling for growth.”
Su Lun raised his eyebrows and seemed quite satisfied with his results.
After the life-saving ability of the Puppet Master's body increases, the combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.
He estimated that if he met the "Ghost Hand" Ueno Sasaki, one of the original Koga Sannin, he would probably not be as dangerous as before.
If you fight head-on, you can still be killed with some degree of certainty.
But as if he thought of something, he muttered again: "However, the shortcomings of dark spiritual power are a big problem. [Rune King Kong] is very strong, but for this, such complex runes require more energy. Moreover, the energy consumption due to rampant hormones is geometrically doubled. Now if I want to be in full state, I’m afraid I won’t be able to last three minutes.”
[Rune King Kong] + Hormone Rampage = Three Minutes of Real Manhood.
It will be a big problem if we encounter continuous fighting.
However, this problem is also temporary.
Su Lun also has an epic level alchemy equipment sealed on his chest, which is his greatest confidence in taking this professional advancement route.
He was looking forward to it in his heart: "After advancing to the fifth level and integrating [Isaac's Alchemical Heart], there will be no shortage of mana, and I will be able to use the two secret techniques without restrictions, and the control of the puppet theater will be the same." The field range can also be infinitely exaggerated”
It can be said that once he advances to the fifth level, his combat power will be exaggerated and unbelievable.
But just with this thought, Su Lun's thoughts started to wander, and he thought: "That's not right. There is a limit to what the physical body can withstand. Even if there is unlimited mana, against a professional who has crossed a higher level, the physical body can only hold up a little longer. It will break down even if you live for some time, and the rampant hormones will cause irreversible injuries to the body, and even death. If you want to last longer, you will need to increase the strength of the physical body. The current physical body can barely support the sixth-level runes. Is it possible that the fifth-level When choosing advanced professions and equipment after the first level, do you need to consider increasing your physical strength?"
As soon as this thought begins, it becomes an infinite nest of dolls.
A stronger body can support stronger runes, and a body with stronger runes can have stronger combat power
Su Lun's expression showed deep thought, and he vaguely had some reference directions for his future career advancement.
My thoughts are still racing,
But this is the time,
Suddenly,
He looked sharply!
"Hey"
Su Lun looked at a newly pulled book from the bookshelf in front of him, and a light flashed in his left eye.
He has the eye of omniscience, so he can see the specialness of this manuscript at a glance.
The words in this magical book called "The Knife of Chrysanthemums" actually reveal a very clever alchemical encryption method!
"Hormones special encryption method? A very advanced encryption method"
After flipping through a few pages, Su Lun's omniscient eye automatically identified the ordering rules between the words.
This is an encryption method named after the great alchemist "Van Hormone" during the Dawn Era. It is usually used to encrypt very advanced alchemical secrets.
This is already an area studied by "master-level" alchemists.
Su Lun recognized this and became even more curious.
What kind of content would receive this kind of encryption?
This was written by an alchemist?
But why is it in Shanyin's library?
Su Lun automatically found the corresponding decryption method in his mind.
The original text in front of me has turned into something else.
"When you unlock the secret I hid in this book, congratulations, you are a thoughtful and destined person. There are some little surprises hidden in the book."
When Su Lun saw this sentence, the image of an alchemist who liked "treasure games" and even had a little "little pranks" appeared on the paper.
Moreover, a guess suddenly came into my mind.
However, when he saw the next sentence, he was immediately shocked.
"My name is Carl Gustav Jung. Oh, no one may know this name. You may have heard of my other pen name, which is called 'Fujiwara Hayato'"
"It's really him!"
Su Lun looked at this self-introduction and immediately realized that this was definitely not someone else pretending to be someone else.
The author of this book is Hayato Fujiwara himself!
Because, this method is impossible for others to pretend to be.
Being able to use cryptography to hide secrets is not a big deal, as long as an alchemist with some basic knowledge can do it.
But the most incredible thing is to encrypt these secrets and hide them in a book that already has high literary value.
So, when Su Lun discovered "The Chrysanthemum and the Knife", he knew that the author of this book was not only an alchemist, but also had very high attainments in literature!
There are definitely not many such people.
What a coincidence, Su Lun heard about one recently!
When he saw that name, he couldn't wait to read the next content.
"Originally, I wanted to follow that guy Bellamy to explore the unknown route, but I found something that made me more interesting, so I stayed in Shanyin. This can be considered part of my travel notes, that is, going The place is a bit special”
This opening chapter did not disappoint Su Lun.
In the circle of big shots, 80% of them are big shots.
When Su Lun saw the words "exploring unknown routes" and "Bellamy", he immediately thought of a person.
Sam Bellamy, the legendary pirate king recognized throughout the world thirty years ago!
"Fujiwara Hayato actually knows the Pirate King?"
Su Lun suddenly felt like he had uncovered an unknown legendary history.
A simple line of words, as if I saw two legends who were at the top of that era talking and laughing.
Su Lun read on with strong anticipation.
"Because I went to a very special place, and I want to express this experience in words. This creative process is difficult, after all, those existences are indescribable. Creating this story may take a lot of time As long as I live, I don't know if I'll be able to finish it at the end of my life. But anyway, I'm going to try"
A very special place.
As expected of a great writer, he managed the suspense just right.
Su Lun continued to read.
"If there is no real story, you can never write a soulful story. This is also the most important reason why I became an adventurer and navigator. And when I came to Shanyin, I discovered a lot of interesting stories."
"You must be curious about where I went? Hehe, no one may believe it, but I went to the 'Land of Underworld'."
"Yes! The real 'Land of Underworld'."
Seeing this, Su Lun suddenly frowned.
He suddenly felt as if he was reading a book about ghosts and ghosts again?
After all, Hayato Fujiwara has written many similar books, and he has read many of them.
But Su Lun felt that it was not that simple.
If it is just one story, there is no need to go to great lengths to hide it in another story.
"I came back alive from the land of underworld, and my soul was polluted by death. I plan to go to Sensoji Temple. The monks there are good at using Buddhism to suppress necromancy. This should allow me to write more about myself in the world. experience"
"Oh, this is an unforgettable adventure. No one will believe that I have come back from the land of **** where no living person has ever come back!"
"As for what I saw, I plan to write it in another story. In this book, I want to leave the details of how I went and how I came back to future generations. If you are lucky, you are also an adventurer. Then, you must be curious about that mythical place, right? If you really have the opportunity to step into myths and legends, who would refuse that temptation? Haha"
"The story begins when I traveled to Shanyin and found two 'ghost train tickets' used to save the dead"
「」
When Su Lun saw it, he really didn’t know how to describe his feelings.
That Fujiwara Hayato discovered a way to go to the Land of Underworld, and after giving it up, he actually tried it!
Holy shit, is this the courage of an adventurer?
Su Lun's rationality made him resist the kind of "curiosity" that could kill people.
No, you don’t want to go!
You will die!
Fujiwara Hayato was definitely a great alchemist, and he died because of it. Su Lun didn't want to take risks just to satisfy his curiosity.
But he had to admit that after reading the words in the text, some kind of imminent thought sprouted in his heart.
As the great writer said, if there is an opportunity to step into a myth, who wouldn’t want to take a peek?
This "Chrysanthemum Sword" is not long, only a few dozen pages. Su Lun quickly turned to the end.
The text is vivid and vivid, and a truly great adventurer appears vividly in his eyes.
That guy
It is precisely because of these pioneer adventurers that so many splendid legends have been left in the world.
In the last paragraph of the book, I wrote this sentence.
"Oh, by the way. That guy Bellamy had a premonition that he might encounter an accident during his voyage, so he left three gold coins. One of them was placed with me. I left it with one handle. In this book. If you are interested in that guy’s sailing adventure, it’s probably another story. Oh, it’s interesting to think about it. Treasure story? It turns out that, unknowingly, we seem to have become Have you ever been seen by others and become the protagonist in a legendary story?"
Su Lun looked at his eyelids twitching.
On the last page, a simple drawing of an ancient gold coin with a portrait and a train ticket was drawn with a brush.
When he finished reading, these two patterns suddenly glowed.
Su Lun felt the fluctuations in space. He reached out and found a gold coin and a green train ticket in his hand.
[Black Sam’s Curse Gold Coin]
Detailed explanation: It is said that you can find the sunken treasure of pirate king Sam Bellamy by collecting three gold coins; some incomplete cipher information is engraved on the gold coins;
"Sure enough, it's the pirate king."
Su Lun saw the properties of the identified gold coins and confirmed his thoughts.
Then Bellamy is the pirate king who disappeared thirty years ago.
Birds of a feather flock together.
The circle of friends of legendary figures are indeed legends!
And Su Lun originally had a gold coin in his hand.
There are two now.
He did not expect to find such a harvest after looking through the library of the divine service royal family.
Looking at the train ticket in his hand, Su Lun's expression became even weirder.
[Ticket for the ghost train]
Detailed explanation: Buy a ticket and get on the train. It will take you to the Kingdom of Underworld. There is some kind of undead certificate on the ticket. train? No, it's not what you think. This is an ancient monster that's older than you can imagine.
Su Lun read the story in the book and remained silent for a long time.
He knew that Fujiwara Hayato really took this "train ticket" to hitchhike to the Land of Underworld.
After a while, Su Lun let out a long sigh and couldn't help but sigh: "That guy is really crazy."
However, it really makes people admire me from the bottom of my heart
Su Lun has collected the train tickets and gold coins. The content of the book has been deciphered, and it doesn't matter whether he keeps it in his hands or not.
He did it again.
The title page reads: "If the world is a cage, then love is the key to unlocking the cage."
Su Lun has heard this sentence before, from Grandma Katyusha’s mouth.
After reading it, Su Lun seemed to have let go of a heavy piece of history.
He put "The Chrysanthemum Sword" back on the bookshelf, thinking that maybe one day in the future, another person would discover the secret in the story, and probably see that the life of this great writer Fujiwara Hayato was legendary. The experience will be equally shocking.
As for the "Land of Underworld", although Su Lun was very curious, he had no intention of going there.
He thought that if he didn’t have the strength of the eighth or ninth level, he would still be a GG.
For Fujiwara Hayato to come back alive, apart from his strength and adventure experience, luck really played a big part.
It is naturally impossible to take risks.
On the contrary, another thing made Su Lun even more curious.
This "Chrysanthemum Sword" was written before going to Sensoji Temple. In other words, Fujiwara Hayato was really creating at the last moment of his life.
Did he write down his experience of going to the Land of Underworld in the story?
If it were really written, what kind of masterpiece would it be?
Su Lun was looking forward to that story.
He thought before that going to Sensoji Temple would probably be fruitless. After all, Fujiwara Hayato is so famous. Over the years, countless people have wanted to find his manuscripts, and the threshold of Sensoji Temple has probably been broken.
But now that he saw this "Kiku no Knife", he felt that it was really possible.
Maybe hidden somewhere?
Even if it’s a scrap, you shouldn’t leave nothing behind.
While Su Lun was still thinking, noises were heard in the garden outside the imperial palace.
It sounded like a lot of people came in.
This is unusual in the quiet and peaceful imperial palace.
Su Lun sensed the powerful and familiar soul fire, frowned, and murmured: "The "Gluttonous General" Ixir Paion is here? Are those pirates finally unable to bear it and forcing them into the palace?"
It's not surprising. He had previously felt that the "Black Sun Festival" was a big obstacle for the royal family in the divine service. People who want to add insult to injury would have the best opportunity to attack before then, not after.
