Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 46: A duel at your door

Su Lun ran all the way. After several directional displacements, the pursuers behind him could no longer see their shadows.

After advancing to the fifth level, his physical attributes have increased a lot, and his spatial displacement ability has also increased a lot. The eight-armed spider spear ran wildly on the sea, moving through space at a speed so fast that it flew up.

Qiantiao said teasingly about Su Lun, there are many professionals who are better than him, but now there are not many who can run faster than him.

Su Lun ran to the uninhabited sea area and took out the brass clockwork ball again.

This is the key to control the entire secret realm. With it, you don't have to wait for the ocean current and wind direction that only occurs once every ten and a half months. You can go out at any time.

As soon as Su Lun pinched the surgeon's seal, an increasingly larger black hole vortex appeared in front of him, and the black iron skull of a sea ship poked out of the black hole. Then came the jib, the mainmast, and the dark hull.

After successfully digesting [Void Gene Potion Original Solution] and [Void Walker's Any Door], Su Lun's space ability has made a qualitative leap, and the deployment of a giant ship like the "Eternal Night Emperor" has become much smoother. . Although we still need help from everyone in the Dawn Group.

Not long after, the big ship fell into the water with a crash, and cheers came from the people on the deck.

Su Lun took out the brass clockwork and activated the permission restriction. Suddenly the stars on the sea turned upside down. A strange sea breeze blew the black sails bulging, and the ocean currents slowly accelerated the ship.

"Wow~ we are going to sail!"

Everyone was very happy, lying on the fence one by one, watching the fleeting seascape around them.

Soon they will be able to leave this secret realm of the void, and those in the North Sea Fleet will not be able to catch up even if they want to

The Evernight is getting closer and closer.

On the deck, Suellen took out the brass clockwork. He looked at the slight scale on it, then looked in the direction of the college in the distance, and suddenly thought of something.

The plane passage on the ruins of the college has always been preserved, but it has been sealed.

The void cracks I saw before are the cracks where the seals and restrictions naturally loosen and crack, and they are artificially controllable.

Through these cracks, the North Sea Fleet can still continuously capture some void creatures that accidentally enter the plane, and can still use the rich void energy leaked from the cracks to cultivate a steady stream of high void tolerance professionals.

Su Lun thought of this, and the corners of his eyebrows curved in thought.

Then he gently twisted the spring in his hand and reset the scale to zero.

"Card", "Card", "Card"

The clockwork ball made a crisp and pleasant metallic sound.

As if some invisible restriction had been touched, the air in this secret realm trembled.

It was this small move that completely sealed the dozens of cracks above the ruins of the college more than ten nautical miles away. The void energy that was constantly leaking out also disappeared without a trace.

The remaining pirates of the North Sea Fleet were stunned.

From now on, no one can obtain new void materials from this secret realm. For the North Sea Fleet, this is undoubtedly a chicken that can lay golden eggs.

Since they are enemies, Su Lun has no psychological burden on completely closing the channel. There is a more important reason, that is, the alchemy plane currently does not have the strength to resist the invasion of other planes, and those cracks will also become a breakthrough point for void plane creatures to discover the alchemy plane. The former "demigod" Sir Isaac did not dare to be careless. If you keep it for some time, it might lead to disaster of invasion from another world.

It’s better to turn it off

More than half a month later, in the waters of Darrenmit.

This is a deserted sea rarely set foot on the sea map, located in the northwest of the Roman Kingdom.

The weather is sunny today, with white clouds floating in the blue sky, and the cool sea breeze blowing microwaves like fish scales on the sea surface.

At this moment, a fierce naval battle is going on in this uninhabited desert sea.

"Winter!"

"Winter!"

"Winter!"

""

The sound of artillery was deafening, and a large number of wooden fragments were floating on the sea.

On one side are five three-masted sailing ships, flying the mace and skull flag of the North Sea Fleet.

The other side is a huge black-sailed battleship.

The firepower of the black-sailed warship was too fierce. After the two sides entered the firing range, a salvo of more than 500 artillery pieces was fired. The overwhelming projectiles fell like a torrential rain, covering a large area of ​​​​the sea. It was not something that ordinary warships could withstand. of. Even the concentrated firepower of five warships cannot suppress a single black-sailed warship. Moreover, the hull of the Black Sail Battleship is extremely strong, and even if ordinary cannonballs hit it, the damage caused is very limited.

After a few rounds of artillery battle between the two sides, three of the five three-masted pirate ships were sunk. After the other two hulls were shot, they saw that the situation was not good and immediately prepared to escape. But before they could run far, some terrifying mechanical octopus tentacles suddenly appeared in the sea water. The people on the boat were chopped into pieces before they could even struggle.

The black-sailed battleship chased after them and beat up the pirates who fell into the water.

On the deck, Barrett waved his iconic silver arm to direct the battle.

"Brothers, get ready to salvage the loot!"

"Hahaha, these are the three divisions of the Seventh North Sea Fleet? Tsk, tsk, the elite regiment will be destroyed like this."

"I just saw that they have several large-caliber main guns, but ours are pretty good. Keep an eye on them when they go to sea, and don't miss them."

"No more ink marks on the clean one, reinforcements from the North Sea Fleet will be coming soon."

""

Everyone in the Dawn Regiment was in high spirits and began to skillfully clear away the remaining pirates and salvage the loot.

This is already the fifth wave of pursuers they have wiped out recently.

Since they came out of the Void Secret Realm, the North Sea Fleet has mobilized almost all the pirate squads, adventurers, and bounty hunters in the entire North Sea to set up an interception circle in the deserted sea near Roman Kingdom, with the intention of intercepting the Dawn Regiment. .

But how can the current Dawn Regiment be so easy to intercept?

Sulun has a mechanical octopus machine and a thousand barretts with super combat power. Usually, several pirate squads come to deliver food.

After several encounters, those guys not only failed to stop them, but instead brought a large amount of supplies to the Dawn Regiment.

At the beginning, there was almost no modern artillery on the Evernight Emperor. Not only that, there are now full ships of standard Marfa military ship-borne artillery. All they rely on are the spoils of killing these intercepting guys.

Now that the whole ship is equipped with artillery, it is even more worthwhile to start a naval battle.

After the artillery salvo is fired, there is no need for a boarding battle. The enemy will most likely be sunk and defeated.

The number and caliber of ship-borne artillery directly determine the outcome of the battle.

This is the dominance of the Poseidon-class battleships at sea!

It is almost impossible to intercept the current Dawn Regiment head-on.

Unless Oleg and several super powerful deputy captains arrive in person.

But the fact is that the number of top experts is limited. The North Sea is so big that even if several mature routes are blocked, dozens of fleets cannot completely stop them.

Furthermore, if the Dawn Regiment cannot escape when faced with a large troop encirclement, why can’t they run away?

The "Eternal Night Dawn" has the fastest speed among sail warships. Coupled with Tani's ability to control ocean currents and waves, it is easy to escape pursuit and interception.

What's more, the Dawn Regiment has the most detailed sea map of the North Sea. It is almost impossible to circumvent the complicated sea areas where they may be ambushed, and it is almost impossible to be blocked.

There were no surprises along the way.

The only trouble the Dawn Regiment has now is that it is wanted by the North Sea Fleet and cannot reach shore anywhere.

But the current situation is that the supplies are sent by the enemy, so it will have no impact if we don't dock in a short period of time.

The encirclement looked like a big battle, but it was just a joke

Su Lun wandered around on the sea, harvested a meal of soul fragments, and then returned to the Evernight.

I just killed two pirate captains and got the latest information.

He shouted to Barrett: "Captain Barrett, the main force of the pirate fleet is now gathering in the southwest, and will be assembled at noon tomorrow at the latest. The third and seventh fleets are the main force. There are several big pirates with a bounty of over one billion. They probably want to use the fog of war to surround us at night and force us into a circle. Oh, and it is said that the Frost Moon Princess also recruited some top masters to participate in the encirclement and suppression. The "King of Thieves" Carlo Merdis, the great bounty hunter, is also here. We have to be careful these days. ”

Because of this information, they can always grasp the enemy's movements.

Barrett responded loudly: "Okay."

Professional soldiers like Barrett are responsible for combat matters, and Su Lun does not need to worry about it.

It was rare to bask in the sun, so Su Lun was not in a hurry to return to the cabin. He jumped onto the mast and started to meditate cross-legged.

After meditating, the vision of blazing black flames on his body subsided.

This is a manifestation of the uncontrolled overflow of dark spiritual power in the body.

It wasn't that Su Lun deliberately wanted to waste it, but that he couldn't control the mammoth surge of dark spiritual power in his body like a tsunami.

In the past half a month, almost all the void materials needed to advance to the fifth level have been digested. He also successfully fused the epic alchemical equipment [Isaac's Alchemical Heart]. Truly entering the realm of fifth-level professionals.

However, because the level of this breeding equipment is too high, it cannot be completely controlled immediately after the initial fusion.

He was like an energy radiator all day long, radiating energy everywhere.

After the fusion, Su Lun deeply realized how exaggerated the increase of this alchemy cultivation equipment was for professionals!

This [Isaac's Alchemical Heart] provides him with almost endless dark spiritual power. Now he almost doesn't have to consider the consumption and recovery of spiritual power when casting spells.

Such as spatial displacement, puppet control, and amplification of various spells and moves are completely sufficient.

The fallen angel is a god-level creature. Her heart is like a nuclear power plant. It is small in size but contains infinite energy.

No matter how much Su Lun, a fifth-level professional, squanders, it is impossible to consume all of it.

Even if it is consumed too quickly, Sir Isaac has developed it into an alchemy cultivation equipment, which also gives it super functionality. Its storage capacity, conversion rate and self-priming recovery ability are all top-notch in the world. .

This breeding equipment has brought a qualitative leap to Su Lun's combat power.

Just like the battle just now, it was really easy.

Before the switch, due to the limited dark spiritual power, Su Lun had to use it carefully at all times when controlling the puppet. But the current situation is that not only can he squander it casually, but he has too much spiritual power, and he also has to consider controlling too many puppets and is distracted.

As soon as they took action, the puppet army directly crushed them in numbers, and instantly defeated the enemy without the ability to fight back.

This is a scene that I never dared to imagine before.

Su Lun has just advanced to the fifth level, and it is difficult for him to evaluate his current combat power.

One-to-one may not even have obvious advantages.

But with this [Isaac’s Alchemical Heart], his puppet army’s human sea tactics truly took shape.

His strength would be really terrifying if it were really a large-scale group battle.

One person is worth thousands of troops!

Su Lun adjusted his inner breath, and the restless dark spiritual power also stopped.

At this time, he took out the [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript III] and started reading it.

The contents of the notes that I once thought were completely incomprehensible can now be read with gusto.

Some things can only be understood if you have accumulated knowledge to that level

Su Lun was fascinated by the book.

But at this moment, the communicator made a sound.

He answered the call and said unexpectedly: "Senior sister, are you coming to Luo Man?"

Mr. Jing’s calm response came from the other end of the communicator, “Yes. The situation on your side is very complicated. I just got the news that Marfa and the Agapanaon Temple used mysterious means to predict the future. Some information. The plan to rescue Kai will be a trap. When the time comes, Oleg will personally intercept and kill you. Just as my strength has fully recovered, I will come to join you. Our 'Dawn' should also be in front of the world. Revealed."

""

As Su Lun listened, his expression suddenly brightened.

The most fundamental reason why the Dawn Group has been wandering around Beihai is because they want to find a chance to save Kai.

If you want to save people, you have to find a way to get the slave collar from Princess Mafa, Frosty Moon.

This opportunity is not easy to find.

Su Lun had actually guessed the first half of Mr. Jing’s words.

No matter how slow those guys in the North Sea King are, they should have confirmed their relationship with Kai,

After all, the talent of Qian [Rakshasa Girl] and his own puppet are very recognizable. They were exposed when they broke into the Black Tower, and it was not difficult to guess that they were a group of people.

So there will definitely be an ambush.

This is also something Su Lun finds difficult.

Fortunately, it's not entirely a bad thing when the news is exposed. At least Kai's life is more secure.

Su Lun felt that as long as he had enough patience, he could always wait for the opportunity to act.

I never thought that Mr. Jing would come in person!

But after hearing the domineering words in the second half of the sentence, Su Lun immediately felt calm.

He didn't know how strong his senior sister was.

But at least, he is definitely not inferior to Oleg, the King of the North Sea

The Dawn Regiment encountered the besieging fleet of the North Sea Fleet in the waters of Darrenmit and sank five pirate ships.

The news quickly spread throughout the North Sea Fleet. The pirates were furious and quickly gathered all the ships in the nearby waters to surround the area where the incident occurred.

On the other hand, a pirate ship flying the flag of the "Blue Knights Pirates" also received the news.

This pirate group is a well-known old pirate group in the North Sea. The captain is the fifth-level professional "Sword Slayer" Jacob Ferdinand.

But in reality, no one knows that he is a sixth-level powerhouse.

They are now recruited by the King of the North Sea to encircle and suppress the Dawn Regiment.

On the deck, Jacob, a great pirate with a bounty of over 100 million, had changed from his usual arrogance and was standing there with a respectful face, reporting something to a majestic man lying on a deck chair and basking in the sun.

"Your Majesty, Duke, we have just received information that the 3rd, 4th, and 5th divisions of the 7th North Sea Fleet were wiped out. The news said that they should be heading west."

"Hey, which division is this that has been wiped out? Tsk tsk, it's getting more and more lively."

"It is said that I was lucky enough to get a Poseidon-class battleship, so I have a great advantage in naval battles."

"Lucky? Haha"

"Sir, do you really want to go there in person? The situation in the North Sea is very complicated now. If you are found here, I am afraid it will bring you unnecessary trouble. Wait until the people of the North Sea Fleet capture the person, belong to Just think of a way to get people out."

"Capture? It's not that easy to be caught. Your information is too limited. Do you know why they made such a big fuss this time? Haha, because they went to seize the Void Secret Realm, and then Make Oleg and Mafa furious!"

"How is this possible! The 'Dawn Group' seems to be a small group of several hundred people. I heard that there are not even seventh-level professionals. Do they have such ability? Not to mention that the Void Secret Realm is top secret, and there are no outsiders at all. As far as I know. And as far as his subordinates know, Oleg still displays hundreds of thousands of troops in the secret realm. It is impossible to break through without an army of one million. They"

"Haha, I also find it incredible. However, judging from the reactions from all parties, it is 80% true."

""

Speaking of coming here, the man lying on the beach chair opened the newspaper on his face and stood up, revealing a resolute face.

The very coquettish large floral shirt was unbuttoned, exposing his burly chest and lush brown chest hair, like a majestic brown bear.

Looking carefully, there are wisps of purple luster in his gray hair.

The man didn't seem to care about the pursuit at all. He grinned broadly, like a bohemian old gentleman: "Besides, if you weren't special, you wouldn't have caught the eye of that girl. Now the noise is getting louder and louder. , I won’t feel at ease if I don’t come and see people in person.”

Hearing this, Jacob said nothing and fell into deep thought.

At this time, the strong man said again: "Change the course to the north, there is no need to go to the west."

Jacob looked puzzled: "Ah this? But sir, there is information that they have gone to the west."

The man in the flowered shirt looked at the sea in the distance, smiled and shook his head: "I'm sure those guys won't even see ghosts when they go to the west. Do you believe it? This is a very clever naval roundabout tactic, it should be Barre Commanded by that kid. He is as bold, careful, decisive, and considerate as when I taught him in the academy! What’s more, until now, you haven’t discovered that they are not on the run at all, but are always looking for opportunities to disperse, encroach and round up. Team"

""

Hearing this, Jacob looked stunned and in awe

The Evernight Emperor was sailing on the sea. Half a day later, the observer on the mast sent a warning: "Captain, a battleship was spotted at nine o'clock! The flag is the 'Blue Knight Pirates'!" ”

Hearing this, everyone on the deck also mobilized.

When you encounter a pirate group, you will naturally be surrounded by the enemies of their Dawn group, and you will most likely have to fight.

Barrett's voice immediately came from the communicator: "Everyone, prepare to fight!"

Su Lun happened to be meditating on the mast as well. He also opened his eyes and looked over.

But what surprised him was that there was only one ship?

It seems like I met an unlucky pirate group by chance.

Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to fight. After all, the opponent is not blind. Seeing the Poseidon-class battleship of the Dawn Regiment, it is absolutely impossible for him to come and die.

There is a high probability that they will change course and escape as soon as they are discovered, or they will keep a distance and not get close.

However, it backfired.

To everyone's surprise, instead of escaping, the "Blue Knight Pirates" made a very outrageous choice!

They activated the alchemical sails and approached at full speed!

"Commander Barrett, they are still moving towards us at full speed."

"Prepare your artillery, sink them as soon as you get within range!"

"Yes!"

The other party's move made everyone in the Dawn Group alert.

This made Su Lun also wonder, is it possible that the other party is so confident because there are top professionals on board?

He even released black crows in the sky to observe the sea areas in all directions. The weather with such visibility was not suitable for an ambush at all.

He was sure that the enemy only had one ship.

When things get weird, monsters will be born.

Out of caution, Barrett immediately changed his tactics.

"Change the course and get rid of them!"

"Yes!"

"But Mr. Su Lun, the other side has signaled, let us wait."

"???"

Everyone in the Dawn Group thought this flag was ridiculous.

Since we are enemies, wait for the hammer!

This situation looked strange, and the Yongye did not show any interest in lowering its speed. Instead, it prepared to activate the alchemy sail and speed away.

Unexpectedly, what the observer said next surprised everyone.

"The people on the ship signaled that their captain wants to challenge you to a one-on-one duel!"

"Looking for me?"

"Yes, Mr. Su Lun! The semaphore roll call is for you!"

""

When Su Lun heard this, he was instantly confused.

What does it mean?

One-on-one?

Before he could figure out what was going on, the ship opposite suddenly slowed down and a fast-moving object flew from the deck.

Looking closely, it looked like a broken mast and a cannonball shot over, and there was a slutty man in a flowery shirt standing on it!

What's going on?

That guy broke the mast of his ship just for such a spectacular appearance?

Everyone in the Liming Group was confused.

What is probably certain is that this is definitely a strong man.

Barrett felt that this man looked familiar, so he pondered and fell into thinking.

Su Lun frowned, thought about it, and decided: "I'll go take a look. You continue sailing."

Qianjo glanced at him and warned: "Be careful of fraud."

Su Lun nodded: "Yes."

No one said anything, he jumped down.

Level 6 professionals are nothing to be afraid of. If you can't defeat them, you can at least save your life.

Even if the man in the flowered shirt was a seventh-level professional, it would be difficult for Su Lun to stay if he wanted to leave.

If it is the eighth level

Whether they go or not, the Dawn Regiment will be in a huge crisis.

What's more, the only known North Sea King Oleg in the entire North Sea is the eighth level, and this guy is obviously not.

Intuition told Su Lun that the other party seemed to have no ill intentions.

But why?

At this time, the death bird above the head also quacked, seeming to tell the truth: "He wants to beat you! He wants to beat you!"

Su Lun's eyes twitched violently when he heard this.

Although the silly bird's gloating tone was deserving of punishment, it had to be said that its words directly made Su Lun feel that his judgment was right.

Black Crow had no premonition of fatal danger, and it was basically gone.

But Su Lun racked his brains and couldn't remember that he had ever known or offended such a person.

Why does he want to challenge me to a duel?
