Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 45: Golden blueprints (please vote for me, recommend votes)
Not long after, the auction will begin.
The black market auction is very interesting, a bit like the open-air car movie in Su Lun's previous life.
Because the black market in "Shadow Alley" is built on the pipes of the rock wall, and there is a dark rock wall opposite.
And on this rock wall, the organizers of the black market used some method to create something that looked like a projection. Then the information about the auction items was displayed on the rock wall in a "slideshow" so that people in every store and every floor of the black market could see it clearly.
There is no auctioneer, just the introduction of the items and the constantly beating prices.
Famous guns, famous swords, ancient relics, cursed objects, alchemy secrets... none of them are bad things.
Su Lun was greedy in the store and felt a little powerless.
There are so many things he wants to buy, but he can only buy one item that easily costs one hundred thousand or hundreds of thousands, and his savings will be wiped out.
It's not just the rich people in the inner city, the top professionals in the outer city are also worth a lot of money.
.......
"Forget it...just wait and see the drawings."
Su Lun comforted himself in this way and resisted taking pictures of the famous gun that looked so powerful.
At this time, an item appeared, and the price was instantly raised.
It was something like a note. It was thin and the image was blurred, making it difficult to see the text on it.
But the auction description on the side reads "An authentic page of Sir Isaac's alchemical manuscript."
You know, an ordinary black iron plant equipment only costs about ten thousand li.
As soon as this page appeared, the price soared to more than two million in an instant. Su Lun's eyelids jumped when he saw it, and he sighed in his heart: "There are really many rich people in the outer city..."
In the end, the manuscript was bought by a mysterious buyer for more than three million.
This is still a "pick-up" price. You must know that this thing will probably fetch a sky-high price of four to five million at an inner city auction.
Just when this auction item appeared, in an inconspicuous shop, the two men in black trench coats Su Lun met before were sitting there.
The man in the trench coat looked at the manuscript and seemed to recognize something. He exclaimed softly: "Boss, isn't that manuscript the one that was stolen from the safe in the Duncan family's ancestral house?"
The woman in the windbreaker said calmly, "Probably so."
The man looked a little ugly when he heard this. This was a case that caused a headache for their umbrella organization. So far, no suspect has been caught. He said indifferently: "Damn it, that rampant little thief actually brought the stolen goods here. ”
The woman in the trench coat looked unconcerned, staring deeply at the projection in front of her, and said calmly: "What else? It's not stolen goods of unknown origin, so what do you think they will sell on the black market? Just watch quietly, don't So excited. The purpose of our visit this time is not to find any thieves. The most important thing is to find the guy who escaped from the laboratory..."
"Oh."
Hearing this, the young man shrugged noncommittally.
He looked at the manuscript, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Boss, I heard last time that Chuck from the 'Cross Society' went to find a volume of [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript] outside the city. Is it true? ?The legend may be that it is one of the five books that records divine alchemy?"
The windbreaker woman said: "It's probably true. Otherwise, those guys from the Oliver Consortium wouldn't have spent so much money to steal it secretly. Haha, in the end, I didn't get the thing, but I also lost a very powerful [banned object] 】..."
The young man asked again: "Boss, do you think...could the manuscript fall into Chuck's hands again?"
The windbreaker woman shook her head and responded: "It shouldn't be possible. Now that the news has leaked, Chuck knows that he can't keep the notebook. That guy is a smart man and will never leave such a big disaster around him. The information should be correct, and the manuscript should be really lost..."
"Oh."
"Hey...that's actually the latest military mechanical prosthetic arm of the Inner City Defense Force! Damn it, who put this kind of control machine on the market!"
"Hiss... that 'cursed object' is actually so powerful. Any buyer in the inner city can sell it for a better price. Oh, it's probably stolen goods again!"
"Oh, my God, the batch of 'special recovery potions' stolen from Nathan Chamber of Commerce..."
"..."
It seems that this is the first time for the young people to participate in the black market auction. Looking at the boutique shops, they are shocked again and again.
The woman in the windbreaker seemed to be used to it and looked at it calmly.
At this time, a piece of "cursed material for mutants" appeared at the auction. The young man seemed to remember something and asked again.
"Boss, the outer city security department has recently reported several serious 'sewer monster incidents'. Looking at the corpse specimens of those monsters, they seem to be mutant species that have never appeared before. Could it be something bad? A sign?"
"Mutated monster in the sewer? Haha... It's probably a leak from the laboratory, and some residues flowed into the sewer. Those guys in the black tower always like to do some crazy experiments, and this kind of accident doesn't happen once or twice. I'm back. You haven't been a member of the organization for a long time. If you stay for a long time, you have enough authority to access some high-level confidential files, so it won't be surprising..."
"Ah...then tell me, is the person I was asked to find under the death order from the superiors this time related to some secret experiments in the tower?"
"Forgot the confidentiality agreement?"
"..."
Two mysterious men in trench coats were communicating quietly in the shop.
The auction is also continuing.
.......
Su Lun looked at the projection in front of him and sighed deeply from time to time.
A silver-quality finished product was auctioned just now, as well as a blueprint, but they were all melee-type products, and their compatibility with his profession was very low.
Of course, the unsuitability is on the one hand, and the price on the other.
Last time at Tongzilou, Su Lun received more than 200,000 yuan in compensation, and with some of his own money, he also had nearly 400,000 yuan in cash.
He originally thought that buying a plant decoration drawing would probably be enough, but now that he is looking at the auction prices that are getting higher and higher, he has become less and less hopeful.
Silver drawings have already appeared, so subsequent lots will only be better and more expensive.
Is it possible that the legendary "golden blueprint" will appear again?
Su Lun thought he would come back empty-handed this time, but unexpectedly, an extremely rare drawing actually appeared.
At this time, a plant decoration drawing with no detailed description appeared on the projection. The pattern was of eight spider legs, and the labeled name was [Eight-Armed Spider Divine Spear (Gold)].
The source of the thing is an "ancient drawing" discovered by a hunting group in the ruins outside the city. It is considered an orphan.
Starting price: three hundred thousand liso.
As soon as this thing appeared, it immediately caused the entire black market to scream.
"It's actually a golden blueprint?"
"This is strange. Even in inner-city auction houses, golden drawings may not appear once a year..."
"Haha, it's a pity that although the quality is high, probably few people will bid for it."
"..."
The blueprints that can be taken out by black market parties must have been verified, and no one doubts its authenticity.
But after reading the introduction of this blueprint, almost everyone is not optimistic that this blueprint can be sold at a good price.
.......
At the same time, in a small shop in the corner, the two trench coat men from the "Umbrella Organization" also saw this auction item.
The man in the trench coat looked at the projection in surprise and said in surprise: "It's actually a 'golden blueprint'. Can such a good thing be seen in the outer city?"
The aloof woman also took another look, but shook her head and commented: "Although this blueprint is of high quality, it is not very practical. The operation of the spider-shaped alchemical plant is too complicated and requires extremely high skill. Skills and the ability to control distractions. This is difficult for most professionals to fit in."
After a pause, she said sharply: "What's more, the more complex the implant, the more stringent the material requirements, and the higher the alchemy requirements. If it is not done well, it will be prone to defects, leading to a high failure rate. , The gain outweighs the loss. Similar things have appeared at inner-city auctions before, but they are fine as collectibles, but their practical value is not high."
Hearing this, the man in the trench coat felt a little pity, and hesitated: "But... this is something from ancient ruins, it shouldn't be simple, right?"
"It is naturally not easy to plant equipment that can reach the gold level. Once the finished product is produced, its power will definitely far exceed that of the same level of equipment. But..."
The windbreaker woman agreed with this statement.
She changed the subject and added: "Perhaps some rare professionals in ancient times can fully exert the effect of this kind of implant. But now...a first-level professional with eight arms can control the entire old spirit while distracted. I don’t think I can even find one.”
Hearing this, the man in the trench coat looked stunned and lost much interest: "No wonder... With such a useless drawing, the auctioneer probably knew that he couldn't get a good price in the inner city, so he just Try it at a black market auction."
.......
Almost no one else in the black market is optimistic about this golden blueprint, and few are interested. But in Gessen's alchemy shop, someone couldn't take his eyes away.
"Requires high skills, difficult control capabilities...high displacement speed, climbing ability, poison needle mechanism..."
Su Lun squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the pictures on the projection, and muttered something.
He didn't know that this alchemy blueprint was considered useless in the eyes of others, but the moment he looked at it, he immediately realized that this was the alchemy plant equipment that best suited his "Puppet Master" profession.
After reading some of the function descriptions on the drawings, Su Lun felt that this was definitely something tailor-made for him.
It is indeed difficult for others to control eight spider arms, but for Su Lun, who has awakened the ability of [multitasking] as a puppet master, as long as he practices diligently, multitasking is not impossible!
Su Lun calculated: "With this eight-arm implant, it means that I have ten arms. In the future, the number of puppets I can control is not limited to my hands..."
Looking at this drawing, he seemed to be able to predict how he would control ten or even more puppets at the same time.
With this implant and his profession as a puppet master, he alone is the legion!
Moreover, the drawings say that this plant has super high displacement and climbing capabilities, and can fight and run. This is the most ideal combination.
Eight-arm climbing, which is why it requires extremely high skill limits.
This implant is a perfect fit for Su Lun!
However, satisfaction is satisfaction, but looking at the auction price, Su Lun's eyelids jumped slightly, "The starting price is three hundred thousand..."
He has never seen a gold blueprint auction, but he estimates that the final price of this thing will be at least one million.
After traveling for so long, Su Lun felt so poor for the first time.
You know, an ordinary finished black iron alchemy plant equipment only costs about 100,000 yuan. The drawings alone for this thing start at 300,000 yuan, not to mention the subsequent material costs. If you really want to refine this [Eight-Armed Spider Divine Spear] finished product, I am afraid it will be a prohibitive figure.
However, blueprints are hard to come by, especially those that suit you.
If I miss it this time, I don’t know if I will have another chance next time.
The auction was put up, but no one bid for a long time.
Su Lun restrained his wandering thoughts and raised the sign for the first time, "Three hundred thousand!"
.......
Planting blueprints are strategic materials, and they are also the favorite things that major forces and plutocrats like to collect.
It stands to reason that if such an "orphan" drawing appears at an auction, it will definitely be robbed.
But when this gold blueprint appeared, it was not even as popular as the previous silver blueprint.
Su Lun thought about it for a moment and understood.
This implant has too high requirements on physical attributes and is not suitable for most professions. It is useless for ordinary people to use it!
It’s not practical, it’s just a collection that eats dust in your hands.
There may be people in the inner city who would spend hundreds of thousands to buy collectibles and ornaments, but there are absolutely no such luxurious people in the outer city.
Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the price did not rise too fast.
But... the auction price soon exceeded 400,000.
This is the total amount of cash Su Lun has on him.
Then, four hundred and fifty thousand, five hundred thousand...
Su Lun looked at the drawings with determination in his eyes.
Then, he set his sights on the little old man with glasses who was immersed in reading at Rosen Alchemy Shop, and asked: "Boss, are you here to buy cursed materials and finished products?"
"Accept."
The old man glanced at Su Lun and nodded.
.......
Finally, after several rounds of price increases, Su Lun gritted his teeth and shouted out the high price of "800,000", and finally got the drawings.
The price was that he sold almost all the trophies from killing "Iron Head" Ivan, "Silver Hand" Dick and his group, as well as Tongzilou.
A piece of alchemy planting blueprint ruined everything.
