Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 475: Steam Castle
The enthusiasm for the wedding of the prince and princess gradually dissipated, and the sunny weather that lasted for several days in Lingdun disappeared.
In the early morning, fog filled the entire city of Rington again.
At the entrance of Rose Manor, mist filled the air, and a unique steam locomotive was parked on the roadside. The servants were carrying large luggage and loading it into the car. It looked like they were going on a long journey.
Not long after, Ekaterina, wearing a long black dress, walked out of the manor holding Su Lun's arm, and the two got into the car in an intimate manner.
In the distance, a reporter waiting on the street corner took a picture of the two people getting into the car.
The plan for the honeymoon trip is to travel south by land, take a car all the way to visit the scenery along the southern coast of Luying, and eventually arrive at the Kingdom of Raigadi in the south.
Prince Fick and Princess Ekaterina are going to inspect their territory.
Lu Ying does not restrict the modification of motorcycles. Almost aristocratic families have their own mechanics, so there will also be many strange motorcycles with unique styles. This is a modified steam-powered travel car. The interior and appearance were designed by Ekaterina herself, and it was given a very poetic name [Xiangri’s Windmill Castle].
It is said to be a car, but more like a moving magical mechanical castle.
In addition to wheels and tracks, there are also several strange-shaped mechanical arms. This allows it to cope with various road conditions, even where there are no roads, and can carry the owner to see the beautiful scenery that is rarely visited.
Its interior space is as spacious as a train car, and it is very spacious for seven or eight people. The decoration in the carriage is as magnificent as ever, and all kinds of appliances are extremely luxurious. There are also many magic devices to make this moving castle a more comfortable living experience.
Remember the URL
Two maids were preparing tea. Suellen and Ekaterina sat opposite each other at the small table next to the glass window, each reading a book leisurely.
It was said that they were traveling, but the state of the two of them was no different from that in the study room of the mansion.
However, the "books" in both hands are very special.
Ekaterina's slender hands were wrapped in a layer of fluorescent energy. What she held in her hands was a book with cursed properties that was so chilling. This was naturally the book "The Land of Underworld".
After reading it two days ago, she found some extraordinary insights that were highly consistent with her career, so she has been reading it these days.
In Su Lun's hand, there is a simple ancient book filled with black energy. This is the [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript] collected by the Raigadi family.
For some reason, he only got this notebook last night.
Mr. Jing said before that her father had the idea of using a giant dragon to refine a kind of breeding costume, which might be recorded in a certain manuscript.
Su Lun didn't even think about it, it just happened to be the volume collected by Lei Jiadi.
After browsing for a while, I finally saw the last page.
He rubbed his brows, closed the book, and sighed in his heart: "The material requirements for this [Isaac's Dragon Patterned Golden Body] breeding outfit are really outrageous. It actually requires sacrificing an entire giant dragon. ”
Just now he roughly read the contents of this note. He was amazed and a little disappointed.
Sir Isaac's idea of designing this colonial costume is indeed extraordinary, even incredible.
The alchemy demigod wrote this in his notes: "The dragon is the only magical creature in the low-level plane that has a complete bloodline of a higher race. This is the most perfect cursed material I have ever seen. They have perfect It has incredible resistance to both objects and demons. After research, I found that the resistance is derived from a natural dragon rune language, which I call [Sacred Dragon Mark]. This is an almost "original rune" that contains Perfect runes of the power of the original law. And according to myths and legends, dragon patterns in low planes can grow into divine-level dragon patterns, which means that the basic rune language combination to build dragon patterns is "perfect""
Su Lun also knows that the rune system in the field of alchemy also has quality differences. D, C, B, and A represent the perfection of the runes.
Sir Isaac's evaluation is that Dragon Mark is the perfect evaluation of SSS+.
Sir Isaac's idea is to refine the "dragon mark" into colonial clothing and give it to alchemists, so that humans can have an invincible and powerful body like a dragon to a certain extent.
Su Lun finally understood it.
The rune body of the dragon
This is most likely the origin of the "rune sorcerer lineage" among alchemists.
He had even studied Pandora's body before, and those incomprehensible ultra-order runes were most likely dragon patterns.
However, not to mention how difficult the refining is, the fusion conditions are also harsh.
Just seeing that the main material was a giant dragon (the higher the grade, the better), Su Lun felt very painful.
If it is some scraps from the dragon clan, it may be found in some ancient ruins and cursed spaces.
But this whole thing is simply impossible.
It’s no wonder that the Raigadi family has collected this manuscript for many years but it has never been of much use, because no one can find the main material
The level of knowledge recorded in this alchemy manuscript is profound and high-end. After Su Lun finished reading it, too much information poured into his mind, which consumed a lot of energy.
The movement of his eyebrows was noticed by Martina who was preparing tea at the side.
She came over with a wink, stuck behind the chair, and used professional massage techniques to help Su Lun relieve fatigue.
Su Lun rested his head on a gentle touch, and his temples immediately felt the coolness of his fingertips. He smiled slightly and said, "Thank you."
After spending a few days together day and night, the maids have become very familiar with Su Lun, and they seem to regard him as their master and serve him very considerately.
This made Su Lun somewhat accustomed to such attentive service.
Martina said with a smile: "Sir, you are too polite."
The suspension of the station wagon is very exquisitely modified, and the bumps are very slight.
The atmosphere in the carriage is very warm, the tea is boiling, and a fragrance fills the carriage.
Su Lun looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the car window and found that they were driving along the north bank of the Locovalen River. They would leave Lingdun all the way from Lington to the south.
After looking at the street scene for a while, he withdrew his gaze and happened to see Ekaterina opposite, who was concentrating on reading.
His gaze lingered for a moment.
After spending a few days together day and night, the two of them became very familiar with each other.
I have to admit that Ekaterina is really outstanding and has efforts that are unmatched by ordinary people.
Su Lun himself struggled up from the bottom. If he doesn't work hard to become stronger, he will probably die.
But Ekaterina was different.
She already has a family that has had enough food and clothing for her whole life, so this effort is very rare.
After living together for a few days, Su Lun realized how busy she was every day. Secret reports from the Military Intelligence Office, various government affairs reports from the Lance family, and all kinds of information to be processed piled up.
She also has to spend time improving herself, occasionally reading some poetry collections.
She is in a serious, focused and efficient state almost all the time.
It seems like every minute is being planned.
When Yekaterina handled this information, she never avoided Su Lun.
Although he really has no interest.
But after witnessing those far-sighted plans, Su Lun gradually realized that under the gentle and beautiful appearance of this noble lady, there was also an "ambition" with great aspirations.
The more you know, the more you feel admiration from the bottom of your heart.
The feeling she had once was strange to people.
But now, Su Lun is gradually able to understand that her deep and indifferent temperament is burdened with too many ideals.
Her ideals include light poetry and distance, as well as the heavy rise and fall of civilization.
Katyusha is her, but she is not just Katyusha.
Probably because his gaze lingered for a moment longer, Ekaterina on the other side noticed it, looked up at him, and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
As she spoke, her eyes fell back on the words.
"It's okay."
Su Lun narrowed his gaze for a moment, and thought of something when he saw her exposed shoulders. He said curiously: "I just suddenly thought, why did you bite me last time in the Emerald Forest?"
The two of them get along day and night, and there is nothing to avoid talking about. They blurt out whatever comes to mind.
When Yekaterina heard this, she did not raise her eyes, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised in an indifferent arc, and said: "Forget it if you forget. When you remember it, you will know that you deserve to be bitten."
""
Su Lun listened helplessly and did not ask further questions.
He just always felt that that fragment of memory seemed important.
At this moment, the maid Leona, who had been guarding the communicator, suddenly came over, obviously having something to report.
Ekaterina raised her eyebrows and asked: "What's wrong?"
Leona immediately said: "Miss, MI2 has just confirmed the whereabouts of William Regaldi. He has left the city early. Someone just saw him in Yorkshire. The staff department deduced that he should be Ambush us near Wharton City."
Ekaterina was not surprised at all and said calmly: "Oh."
After thinking about it, she looked at Su Lun and asked: "At this speed, we should arrive in Wharton City tonight. Do we want to start preparations?"
Su Lun nodded and said, "Yes. It's almost as expected, so we'll proceed as planned."
When Yekaterina heard Su Lun’s words, she obviously understood what she said. She called to Leona and said: "Inform the gangsters in Linton to distribute the special potion of the Red Death now. Before tonight, be sure to disperse the potion. Finished!"
Leona: "Yes, Miss."
Su Lun listened silently, but he knew very well why the powdered potion was related to this assassination.
The whereabouts of Young Master William are almost all under the control of the Military Intelligence Department. Whether it is to guard against or to kill, it is actually not difficult.
But obviously, there is something else, a deeper plan in the two people's plans.
After Su Lun obtained information about the "Immortal Monk" Las Lisboa, he carefully analyzed the causes and consequences, and discovered that this assassination was not as simple as paying someone to kill someone on the surface.
He deduced a highly logical hypothesis from relevant clues and the information he had.
That is, the demon monk may be a crucial figure in the collusion between the "Giant Monastery" and the Bona royal family!
In this way, the assassination operation is more subtle.
Both Su Lun and Ekaterina have good strategies. Once they put them together, they decided to do something big!
But what can be said about this plan is only William's part.
I can't say anything else.
Because of the direct name and directional planning, some gods will also sense it.
We can only communicate through tacit understanding.
The only thing that is certain is that once the special potion of the Red Death appears in Rington, it will be the beginning of the decisive battle
After listening to the information, Su Lun thought of some things in his mind.
If it goes as he expected, once William's assassination begins, there will inevitably be an earth-shattering battle, which is extremely dangerous.
Even Su Lun himself cannot guarantee absolute safety.
His pupils were idly thinking about various details, and when he focused again, his eyes unconsciously fell on Ekaterina's fair and delicate shoulders and neck. She is wearing a casual low-cut princess dress today. From this angle, she can see the white and deep career line.
Ekaterina obviously noticed the gaze and rolled her eyes at him, but ignored him.
Su Lun obviously didn't want the beautiful scenery, but thought of something.
At this time, he took out a very exquisite rose gold necklace with sapphires and put it on the table. He was about to say: "This"
When Yekaterina saw the necklace, she seemed to suddenly become interested, but she was also slightly surprised and asked directly: "You gave it to me?"
"Yeah."
Su Lun nodded and explained seriously: "This necklace has directional spatial coordinates drawn on it. Keep it with you. If something happens, I can sense the coordinates and maybe we can take care of each other."
At the end, he added: "Of course, if you think it is necessary."
Hearing this explanation, Ekaterina raised her eyebrows slightly, with a half-smiling look on her face, "Oh?"
After a pause, she didn't know what she was thinking of, and said to herself in a slightly weird tone: "I have received many gifts since I was a child. But this is the first time I have received such a gift."
She was sighing in her heart, how casual it was.
Although she didn't care, it was the first time she met someone giving her a gift like this.
This is also a piece of jewelry brought from Hai Rui. It is very precious and looks very good.
But it’s too simple,
It doesn't even come with a gift box.
The person who gave it away had a casual attitude.
It's like being handed a gun: Hey, hold it for self-defense.
My heart is full,
But I really didn’t expect to receive a romantic gift like a necklace.
Su Lun saw that Ekaterina had no intention of reaching out for the necklace, and a doubt emerged in her heart: Did she mean she didn't want it?
Oh, with her strength, she really doesn’t need it.
The atmosphere just felt a little awkward, but I didn't expect it to suddenly change.
Ekaterina reached out and caressed the necklace on the table, as if she liked it very much, and praised: "It's a very beautiful necklace."
"???"
Su Lungang wondered why she suddenly changed her attitude.
Looking at Yekaterina looking at him again, she smiled and said: "Can you ask Mr. Su Lun to put it on for me?"
Su Lun was slightly stunned when he heard this.
It turned out to be accepted.
But why should I help wear it? This is not Jessica’s job?
Hearing the conversation between the two, the maids on the side covered their mouths and chuckled, with no intention of coming to help.
"Of course."
Su Lun didn’t think much, stood up, took the necklace and walked behind Yekaterina across the table. Then he helped her put the necklace on her slender neck.
At this time, the maid also brought a mirror.
Ekaterina admired herself and the necklace in the mirror, then glanced at Su Lun behind her, her eyebrows curved, "It really looks good."
The Steam Moving Castle drove all the way away from Rington. After leaving the city, the smell of soot in the air gradually disappeared.
When you reach the outer suburbs, you can already see the blue sky.
Although the road conditions are not good, it does not affect the passage of the steam castle.
The degree of industrialization in Luying is very low. After leaving Lingdun, what you see is almost a very primitive farming state.
The scenery of castles, villages, country roads, blue sky and white clouds, birds singing and flowers fragrant, and deer yoyo all the way is beautiful.
Occasionally passing by the village, curious children will point and point, knowing that this is a noble from Lingdun.
Driving to the suburbs, the moving castle also opened its mechanical roof, and the top turned into a transparent glass room. People in the car can enjoy the fresh wind and enjoy the scenery along the way.
This is also the first time for Su Li to experience such a scattered scenery.
He and Ekaterina were really like a newlywed couple on their honeymoon, walking and stopping along the way.
On a hillside filled with mountain flowers, they can spread out mats on the grass and have a leisurely picnic.
Then take photos to record every detail of their trip.
Suddenly for a moment, Su Lun felt like he was on a romantic trip that just left and gone
In the evening, the sky is filled with red clouds.
A large bright moon and dots of stars can already be seen in the dark blue sky.
On the horizon, a strange-looking mechanical castle drove slowly and slowly. It was already a hundred kilometers away from Rington, and "Wharton City" was another ten kilometers away.
Night, quiet.
There are insects chirping in the grass on the roadside. The green eyes of a monster that didn't know whether it was a wolf or something lit up in the forest, looking at the steel monster that was driving slowly by.
The orange lights lit up in the moving castle, and the maids prepared a sumptuous dinner.
Suellen and Ekaterina are enjoying dinner.
The life of a high-ranking noble is exquisite to the extreme. Even the meals during travel are extremely rich, including appetizers, meals, desserts, and red wine.
The two of them ate, chatting about irrelevant topics, and occasionally looked at the stars.
As if completely unaware that on the hillside in the distance, a man in a cloak hiding in the darkness is holding a telescope and gritting his teeth as he watches this heartwarming scene. His bloodshot eyes are already filled with the flames of twisted jealousy
Suddenly, the castle stopped.
The driver in the cockpit suddenly shouted: "Miss, a body was found on the side of the road!"
Su Lun and Ekaterina looked at each other and knew immediately that Young Master William had taken action.
Knowing that it was an assassination, there was no need to let the bodyguard die in vain in a battle of this level. Su Lun stood up and said directly: "You wait here, I will go down and take a look."
"Yeah."
Ekaterina nodded calmly.
While speaking, she was playing with several beautiful small meteorites in her hands.
Su Lun said hello, holding a black umbrella, and teleported outside the car.
He looked at a corpse dressed as a farmer on the ground. The identification showed that it was [a corpse cursed by voodoo].
Su Lun frowned slightly as he looked at it.
There seems to be a small village on the hillside not far away, but there is no soul fluctuation of living people in my perception.
At the moment he teleported out of the car, the black crow on his shoulder gave a gentle cry, issuing a warning.
Su Lun's pupils shrank slightly, and he immediately knew that someone was attacking him: "Here he comes!"
