Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 37: Disappeared for a year

After "Akos" died, the monstrous evil aura of "Onimaru Hyakume Munemasa" also disappeared. The strange human eyes on the sword blade were also closed, and the legendary sword of twelve names returned to its original state.

The fierce aura has been restrained, and the sword body is white with dense cloud patterns. It is a pleasure to see in the wind and snow.

Su Lun admired it for a moment, then slowly pulled the sword out of the corpse.

Withdrawing the sword, the blood beads stained on the blade gathered into large blood beads due to gravity, and flowed down the blade, dripping onto the white snow like dots of red plums. Looking again, there was not a drop of blood on the sword's blade. It shone with cold light and was sharp to the naked eye.

Holding the hilt of the sword, Su Lun immediately felt the evil aspect of the sword. In an instant, the demonic aura overwhelmed his senses, and his eyes were filled with endless horrific scenes. He saw the most evil thoughts in his heart and the terrifying scene of endless hell.

With a big killer weapon in hand, there seems to be a voice in my heart tempting me to kill, kill, kill

Su Lun's eyes flashed red, and then the [Eclipse Sun] totem on his chest heated up slightly, and he regained his clarity...

For ordinary people, the evil spirit attacking the heart is definitely a matter of life and death. No matter how firm your will is, if you stay by your side for a long time, it will be eroded sooner or later.

Unfortunately, this is not a big problem for Su Lun. Whether it is manic negative mental power or the scene of hell, he is no stranger.

The holy pattern totem of the Daru tribe can perfectly swallow those abnormal negative mental powers that are beyond control, so this demonic sword does not pose much of a threat in his hands.

As if because he failed to turn the user into a "sword slave", the "Onimaru Hyakume Munemasa" in Su Lun's hand made a tinkling sound.

Su Lun pinched his fingers tightly and tightly grasped the demon knife that he wanted to break free from.

In order to get rid of the pressure of the demonic energy, he swung his sword forward, and a sharp sword energy cut a plow mark of more than ten meters in the snow.

The sound of sword energy breaking through the air was lost in the wind. Su Lun's eyes were like fog, and he murmured to himself: "So strong"

The surging sword power made him, a puppet master, want to change his profession for a moment.

It's really too strong.

The thought disappeared in a flash.

Su Lun chuckled lightly.

Even though he held it in his hand, he noticed the resistance and frowned slightly helplessly.

Su Lun is not afraid of the evil nature of this demon sword, but this sword does not recognize him as the puppet master as the sword master.

He didn't really want to control this sword anymore.

With this thought, the knife in his hand also became quiet.

Spiritual.

Su Lun pursed his lips and laughed at himself: "Haha, it really doesn't work."

He always believes that swords are weapons of killing, and what is good and evil still lies in the human heart.

The reason why this sword is called a "demon" is because the user attempts to use power beyond the control of his ability.

Su Lun raised one hand, hooked his fingers, and used silk thread to take out the old cassock from the ancestral hall.

The cassock was wrapped around, and "Onimaru Hyakume Munemasa" became completely quiet.

After doing all this, he glanced at a house in the distance behind him and showed a meaningful smile

The man hiding in the house watched Su Lun draw "Onimaru Hyakume Munemasa", thinking that there would be another soul killed by the sword.

But after watching for a while, he watched Su Lun calmly put away the knife and wrapped it in a cassock.

This move really surprised her.

When a normal person gets this knife, wouldn't he be immediately attacked by the demonic energy and go crazy instantly?

The eyes hidden in the darkness flashed coldly: "There is actually a master in the North Sea Fleet who can tame "Zongzheng"? Could it be Oleg's hidden hand? ”

Although no one can control this sword for the time being, it is impossible for outsiders to take away this twelve famous swords.

She thought and walked out

Su Lun heard footsteps behind him and looked back, seeing his guide Matsunaga running over anxiously.

"Hey, sir, are you okay?"

This guy saw Su Lun was about to leave, and followed him with slightly awkward steps.

"What's wrong?"

Su Lun looked at the guy who obviously had a problem expressionlessly and turned around to ask. The amusement in his eyes disappeared for a moment, and he joked again: "Hey, are you still alive?"

Yongxiu's face froze, thinking that she had not been discovered, and said awkwardly: "I was afraid of death so I hid. This way I saved my life and made the adults laugh."

Seeing that Su Lun ignored him and was about to walk out of the village with the knife, he quickly said: "Sir, this knife is an offering from the Sword Making Village. You can't take it away. Otherwise, it will be given to you. Bringing misfortune."

"Oh, really?"

Hearing this, Su Lun chuckled.

He naturally knew that taking away this sword would bring misfortune to ordinary people, and the name of the Demon Sword was not for nothing.

And if he didn't notice the strangeness of this village, he really wouldn't necessarily take away the village's treasure.

But now, this knife is just a "tool" used by this guy to kill people.

Those villagers, no, this village also has big problems.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "What if I must take it away?"

When Yongxiu heard this, his face turned ugly, "This"

If the identity is not exposed, the name of the sword cannot be kept.

But once exposed, the King of the North Sea would have an excuse to directly attack.

After all, killing someone with a borrowed knife can be blamed on the "knife", but once someone is exposed, it is a man-made incident.

The problem will become irresolvable.

For a moment, the guide's face was as gloomy as a daisy, but his mouth did not show any flaws, "Oh, sir, please don't do it. Those adults who were on the boat and just entered the village didn't listen. Just a little advice, that’s all”

Su Lun was not interested in continuing to play riddles with this guy, so he interrupted him and asked in a playful tone: "Mr. Guide, can you tell me what is going on in this village? ”

He knew that if he wanted to take away the knife, the other party would never give up. Instead of being tricked on the way, it would be better to find out here.

Hearing this, Yongxiu's eyes flashed with an unnoticeable panic, and he wanted to continue to pretend to be stupid, "Huh? This is the Sword Forging Village. Didn't I tell adults about it before?"

"Haha."

Su Lun interrupted him again with a sneer.

After walking around for a while, he was ready. He stopped, and the murderous aura in his body suddenly rose. He stared closely at Yongxiu's face, and with a flash of cold light, "I want to say, this person from the Sword Forging Village obviously died a year ago. Why are they still 'alive'?"

This is what he really cares about.

Even more important than getting this demon knife!

Unable to figure it out, he felt that his understanding of the world would be blocked by a barrier, so severe that it would even make him doubt everything he saw!

""

Hearing this, Yongxiu suddenly stopped, and the face that had been flattering and smiling suddenly became cold.

He looked at Su Lun and stopped pretending, "How did you find out?"

"Want to leave? Did you think you were leaving? You didn't think I was really unprepared by chatting with you all the way?"

Su Lun didn't notice that this guy was planning to stay.

But since Su Lun chose to reveal the truth, how could he give this man a chance to escape?

While he was speaking, he pulled without hesitation, and countless sharp threads surrounded Yongxiu in front of him. In the next moment, he would be cut into countless pieces

Before Su Lun entered the village, he only suspected that there was something wrong with the guide.

After entering the village, he knew that there was something wrong with the "Demon Sword".

But after talking to Koichiro Koike before, he discovered that there was a problem in the entire village!

Because he met Koike Teppei at the geisha house and learned some things about her family during the conversation.

That’s why you can gain the other party’s trust by talking to Koichiro Koike.

But something went wrong with this conversation!

Su Lun remembers clearly that Teppei Koike said that she was sold nine years ago and she is now sixteen years old; but she, Koichiro Koike, said that his daughter was sold eight years ago and that her daughter is now fifteen years old.

There is a whole year difference in the middle, but the others are completely consistent!

It is impossible for the two of them to remember such an important thing incorrectly.

And because they didn’t know each other before, neither of them had any motive or meaning to deceive Su Lun.

So, when Su Lun heard the "contradiction" before, he immediately noticed something was wrong.

If one excludes the assumption that one of the two parties is lying, then the time difference becomes a big problem.

Finally, Su Lun connected all the clues and came up with the most reasonable explanation, that is: the person from the "Sword Forging Village" died a year ago!

But judging from any of his current cognitive methods, these people should be "living people".

But in fact, logically, they should be dead!

No, to be precise, the villagers of this Sword Making Village seem to be frozen in time one year ago.

Just like a movie reel!

They come to life under certain conditions.

Su Lun also suspected that he had inadvertently fallen into some special cursed space.

But even after carefully observing everything in the village, the omniscient pupil did not see anything unusual.

In this case, either the cursed space is too large for him to exceed his field of vision.

Either this "Sword Forging Village" exists in a form that he cannot understand for the time being.

That’s why he urgently wants to know the truth

Su Lun suddenly attacked, and the silk threads that had been arranged to control the field instantly condensed into entities. The "Matsu Nagasaki" was unavoidable at all, and the sharp silk threads instantly cut into the guy's body.

Su Lun didn't intend to kill him as soon as he came. He wanted to control the situation and then see the situation, but he didn't expect that as soon as the thread touched, Yongxiu's body was like a punctured balloon, which suddenly deflated and became A pair of skin bags fell off.

Sure enough, the original guide has been replaced.

Su Lun also secretly sighed that this guy's concealment was so perfect that no one noticed anything unusual.

At the same time, a smoke bomb exploded with a "pop" sound, and a black figure escaped from the silk cage.

"Ninja Technique: Void Flash Shadow Killing Technique? You are indeed a ninja, huh, how could I let you escape like this!"

Su Lun's eyes widened, and as soon as he opened the black umbrella in his hand, he immediately sensed abnormal fluctuations in the soil in the distance, and was still running away from the village.

"Escape from the Earth?"

Su Lun narrowed his eyes slightly. It was his first time fighting against a ninja, and he was surprised to see this method.

Although there are similar earth spells in alchemy, the principles are completely different.

The ninjutsu of Shanyin Kingdom has its own lineage. Although many mysteries of ninjutsu are spread to the outside world, few people have seen the real number of highly practiced ninjas. After all, he is a believer in the gods, and some ninjutsu cannot be explained by common sense.

The situation in this village that Su Lun thought of,

Is it some kind of ninjutsu?

Thoughts were racing in his mind, and his movements were not slow at all.

Su Lun has long heard that ninjas are good at using the environment to hide themselves, but it has almost no effect on those with soul perception.

The moment "Yongxiu" escaped, Su Lun raised his hand and was hit by a cannonball.

There was a loud "bang", the ground cracked, and a figure jumped out.

This guy is wearing a standard ninja uniform, with his face covered and his cold eyes exposed.

I didn’t know what method she used before. She used human skin to disguise herself as Yongxiu, and even her sense of soul fire became strange. Now that it has returned to its original appearance, it is estimated to be at the fourth level. This is similar to what was expected before.

There were still burnt marks on her clothes, and it was obvious that she had not completely avoided the shot just now.

Su Lun will not give her opponent a chance to breathe. The moment he forces her out, he pulls with five fingers and dozens of threads are pulled tightly again.

The ninja pulled out the short sword from his back and blocked a few threads. The next moment, his body suddenly collapsed into a ball of black mist, and he used ninjutsu again.

"The gap between [False Flash] is about 1.5 seconds. You can't escape at this level"

Su Lun didn't know enough about ninjutsu, but in these few rounds of fighting, he also judged some details about the opponent.

Ninjutsu is very tricky, but if you really understand it, you can also find a way to deal with it.

Su Lun flashed to avoid the two flying shurikens, teleported a hundred meters in space, and punched the air. He knew very well that the target was hidden in the air.

Before the ninja could escape, he felt a heavy kick on his stomach.

She also immediately realized that there was no point in hiding, and the other party locked her position with a ninjutsu seal, and when her body bowed into a prawn, it exploded into a cloud of smoke.

Su Lun felt his feet go empty and kicked another piece of clothing.

Looking at the graceful figure in the distance again, I was slightly surprised: "Hey, he is actually a female ninja."

The Substitution Technique in Ninjutsu seems to shed its skin every time it is used?

With no emotion in his eyes, Su Lun chased after him again.

That kunoichi's methods and reactions are actually pretty good. If she really had to fight head-on, she wouldn't be in such a panic.

But as long as she stays in a head-on confrontation, Su Lun will find an opportunity to kill her!

Unfortunately, this guy has amazing intuition and only wants to escape. Su Lun can't do anything to her in a short time.

But her intuition seemed to sense something. When Su Lun was about to use a human leather umbrella and a black sickle, she suddenly took out a simple clay pot. As soon as the lid was opened, wisps of black gauze came over overwhelmingly.

"Monster [Inner Bird]? It turns out that this is how Yongxiu's skin came from."

Su Lun identified this thing, so he couldn’t be careless.

This "black sand" is also one of the famous hundred ghosts of Shanyin Kingdom.

This is a kind of parasitic demon bird that is smaller than the pores of the human body. They will burrow into the human body in groups and then eat all the tissues under the skin. The parasitized person will not even realize that he is dead, which is very strange.

Almost at the same time, Su Lun's sacred blue flames erupted, and in the blink of an eye, they condensed into a giant spirit wearing armor.

It was this layer of flames that overflowed and formed an isolation barrier several meters thick. Those black sand monster birds that approached were burned to death and could not get closer at all.

Seeing this scene, the female sergeant showed a look of confusion and shock in her eyes, and shouted urgently: "[Wu Attendant] Secret Technique, are you from Lu Ying?"

At this moment, she was really confused. She thought it was Oleg, but looking at the secret method of [Wu Attendant] with such proficiency, the identity was definitely not simple!

But if he is from Lu Ying, then why is he lurking in the pirate group?

Moreover, the [Warrior of Fire] Leng Yan driven by dark spiritual power is slightly different from the one used by the Luying royal family. The shadow of the "Warrior of Fire" **** general on Su Lun looks cold and evil. .

She looked as if she recognized something, and completely lost any intention of fighting, and said again: "Wait, we can talk!"

"Humph!"

Su Lun snorted coldly and ignored it.

After seeing the weirdness of ninjutsu, he didn't dare to stop.

He does not feel that after giving the other party a chance, he is still sure that he will take the initiative.

If we want to talk, we can talk after we capture him!

At this moment, the beam of light shone on the chessboard in Su Lun's hand.

But this time, the chessboard failed for the first time?

Su Lun noticed that the surrounding scene changed, and the figure in front of him suddenly softened, as if it had turned into melted asphalt. Only one set of clothing was left, which was naturally worn by the female ninja before.

"[Shadow Girl]?"

Su Lun looked at the shadow that slipped away and realized that it was another kind of monster.

There are fluctuations in the soul, and there is a demonic aura covering it up, making it impossible to tell the truth from the false.

The chessboard space did not control the person, but the shadow of the female ninja.

Su Lun immediately unlocked the space and returned to the village, but when he looked again, there was still the shadow of the female ninja.

He picked up the clothes on the ground and put them away

The man ran away and Su Lun frowned.

That female ninja is good at all kinds of ninja escape techniques, so it is really not easy to kill her.

He exhaled slightly and did not dwell on it.

Although I didn't get the "truth", fortunately, the demon sword fell into my hands.

It was already far away after he had just chased him out, so he looked for the direction of the village and walked back.

But when he returned to the col, he was shocked again by the scene in front of him.

The "Sword Forging Village" not long ago has now turned into a pile of ruins, as if it had experienced a fire. In the snow, only some charred wooden piles were left of the former houses. There were also corpses left on the ground.

Su Lun's eyes did not flicker for a long time, and his face showed an increasingly serious expression. The left eye was shining brightly, but nothing unusual could be seen at all.

He naturally judged that these scorch marks were at least a year and a half old.

This is the real "Sword Forging Village".

But what he saw before him was real. What about the sword-making village he saw before?

What about those "living people"?

If it weren't for "Onimaru Hyakume Munemasa" in his hand and the body being real and tangible, he would really feel that tonight's experience was a dream.

Su Lun walked around the village and collected some spoils. After finding no clues that could solve his puzzle, he quickly left the col.

Everything in this Sword Making Village was weird. Even with the cold wind and heavy snow, he did not want to spend the night here.

That female ninja will most likely come back. She can't defeat her alone, but she can still call on others.

As Su Lun moved forward in the mountains, he cleaned up the traces he left behind.

Now that the vanguard group of the Ninth Fleet is almost wiped out, Su Lun's original plan will naturally not work.

Think about it, he dialed the message of a young woman addicted to gambling.

"Sister Qianjo, I have encountered some situations now"

He briefly described the previous situation, and not long after, a response came from the communicator, "Just in time, there was an accident in the previous plan to assassinate the 'Old Rune Man'. I encountered a little trouble. I need to You help”
