Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 51: Trial group in the inner city

 Back on Green Street, Suellen began a day of regular nightlife.

 At seven o'clock in the evening, the Cross Society members gathered at the broken building on time.

 Then patrol for half an hour.

 After finishing the matter, Suellen went to the arena of Scarlet Bunker as usual.

 As expected, he will stay here all night.

  I don’t know what happened in the inner city recently. There have been more professional death matches in the arena.

I heard from the gossip that some big chaebols in the inner city are fighting fiercely among themselves due to conflicts of interest. Most of the people sent to fight are the best among professionals, such as bodyguards, retainers, or people with special status. Anyway, their origins are not simple.

 However, the turmoil in the inner city has little to do with Su Lun, a gangster.

 On the contrary, he felt that the more noisy, the better.

 After all, these professionals from the inner city do have a much deeper “understanding” than those from the outer city. Su Lun has harvested a lot of systematic alchemical knowledge and mechanical knowledge from the corpses in the arena during this period... This is a benefit that professionals in the outer city who can only strip off combat skills cannot compare with.

  Today, the arena is as lively as ever.

 But before Su Lun had even made two bets, captain Kai came over with a mysterious look on his face.

 Said he was taking him to meet a big shot.

  .....

 “Captain, who do you want to see, why are you so mysterious?”

Su Lun felt a pity that he was pulled away midway. There was another professional fight to the death tonight.

 If you miss it, you will lose a lot of experience.

 “Hey, of course it’s a good thing!”

Kayi put his arm around Su Lun's shoulders and winked: "You can earn a lot of money, contribute to the gang, and have the opportunity to meet the big shots in the inner city. Let me tell you, as long as things are done well, there will be absolute benefits. It’s unimaginable.”

 “Ah...what is going on?”

 Looking at Kai's excited expression, Su Lun became more and more confused.

 Know a big shot in the inner city?

 This may be a rare opportunity for others; but for Su Lun, it may not be a good thing.

 The identity of the original owner is very sensitive. Before he understands the situation, he does not want to come into contact with the big shots in the inner city for fear of meeting acquaintances.

 At this time, Kai looked at Su Lun's exaggerated smoky makeup and frowned: "Hey, brother, your attire is getting weirder and weirder now. Although the heavy metal style is cool, I think it is the only Not suitable for you..."

 After a pause, he seemed to have thought of something, and muttered: "I don't know if your style will affect the first impression..."

Su Lun muttered in his heart: "It's better to look down on it."

 He also understood. It seemed that some big shot from the inner city had come and wanted to have an "interview". Then we can see if he is suitable and what conditions...

 Earn money and meet big people?

 Is it a matter of choosing a cowherd?

Su Lun couldn’t help but feel a little pain in his **** when this thought came to his mind.

 After all, he was still a member of the Cross Society, so he couldn't refuse the captain's mission, so he followed him out.

I thought that Kai should not be so unreliable.

  .....

As he walked, Su Lun felt uneasy again. He quietly inserted a pair of steel braces into his mouth, making the shape of his facial features even stranger. This is also the mainstream dark punk style dress, which is not considered alternative.

 The two passed through the crowd, then walked out of the gambling stall and came to the back door of the gambling stall, which was guarded by a dedicated person.

 This is the exclusive passage leading to the VIP private room on the second floor of the gambling stall.

 But when we got here, Kai didn't leave. He said: "Su Lun, go up by yourself. Sister Senjo is also up there."

 Su Lun was slightly confused: "Aren't you going?"

 Kayi rolled his eyes and said with a hint of resentment: "I went there just now, and that adult didn't seem to pay attention to me..."

 “…”

 When Su Lun heard it, it turned out to be this.

 But he was also surprised at the same time. Kai was not weak among the first-level professionals of the Cross Society, and his character was also good, but he was not favored?

 Even if you choose a cowherd, Kai looks much better than his current punk self, right?

 What conditions does the "big man" want to choose?

 At this time, Kai looked at Su Lun, who looked suspicious, and finally revealed some of the truth, saying: "Forget it, I originally wanted to leave you a surprise."

 After a pause, he continued: "It's not that difficult. It's just that the big shot wanted to find someone who had been to Tongzilou Cave as a guide. Only the two of us survived before, so... slightly."

 So, he didn’t choose, so he called Su Lun.

 “Tongzilou Caves? Be a guide?”

Su Lun was even more puzzled when he heard this. The big shots in the inner city even dislike coming to the outer city. Why would they go to a stinking and dangerous place like a catacomb?

Kayi simply said what he said here, "I heard from Sister Senjo that some noble students of the 'Black Tower Alchemy Academy' in the inner city have some kind of graduation test. Those young masters and ladies with golden bodies must be They can't risk their lives to go hunting outside the city, so they can only go through the motions of finding a place with monsters in the city. Since all the aberrant monsters in the inner city have been cleaned up, they can only look for them in the outer city. I don't know. I heard that there are monsters in Tongzi Tower, so I have to find a local snake to be my guide and handle some contact matters..."

 “That’s it?”

 When Su Lun heard this, he finally understood what was going on.

 "Don't worry. Although the Tongzi Tower is dangerous, you don't need to fight at all this time. Those noble students are accompanied by second-level professional mentors to protect them. You know, the professionals in the inner city are very strong. Especially those who can serve as mentors in the 'Black Tower Alchemy Academy'. They will definitely not be weaker than the cadres..."

 Kai said this, and seemed to be a little bit resentful about why he was not favored by the big boss.

  He pursed his lips, and then said: "So, you can just follow, there is no need for you to do anything. When the time comes, you will lead the way for them, and then don't let the residents of Tongzilou disturb the noble young masters and ladies. That’s good.”

 "That's it..."

 After hearing this, Su Lun completely understood.

 An inner city trial team is going to Tongzi Tower to kill monsters to complete the graduation trial. Does it need a local snake guide?

  .....

If he were just to be a guide, Su Lun would definitely try his best to avoid this task.

 He did not want to meet the acquaintances of the original owner.

 But hearing the address of Tongzilou made Su Lun hesitate again.

 Because he immediately thought of the forbidden sickle that was still deep in the tunnel.

 After the battle at Tongzilou, Su Lun clearly understood the terror of underground monsters. He estimated that he would try his best. Before his second-level strength, he had no confidence that he would be able to go to the depths of the tunnel alive to retrieve the [Forbidden Object].

 If this group of people went to the trial and accidentally found the place where the sickle fell, wouldn’t they have wasted a big opportunity?

 Now he also understands the value of forbidden objects.

During this time, he also went out of his way to inquire about the legend related to the [Hypnos’ Black Scythe of Night].

  I don’t understand or know, but I was really shocked when I found out.

 And that black sickle is a super weapon that is said to be able to cut through space cracks!

 There is nothing that cannot be destroyed and nothing that cannot be cut.

  No matter how hard the armor is, it will be cut in two under that sickle.

 That's why the group of guys who attacked the headquarters were able to use this sickle to easily break through the door of the headquarters' vault.

Although that sickle must have its negative "curse characteristics" that are unknown to outsiders, Su Lun felt that having such a magical weapon in hand would definitely be a life-saving weapon.

 When you encounter a super strong enemy and you can't defeat it, at least you have some confidence to die together.

  .....

 "Perhaps you can follow this group of people and use their high-end combat power to clean up the monsters in the tunnel to achieve the purpose of getting things yourself?"

 At this time, Su Lun quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

 Speaking of being a guide to the cave tunnel, he is really the most suitable person for this task.

 After all, he really has a map in his head!

 Without much thought, at this time, Kai urged again: "Su Lun, go up, don't let the big man wait too long."

 “Hmm.”

Su Lun nodded. No matter what he decided, he had to go up and see the big man in the inner city.

 Perhaps, others still look down upon it?

 Go up the stairs leading to the private rooms on the second floor, and then there is a deserted corridor paved with luxurious stalls.

Although there was no one there, Su Lun always felt as if there was a gaze staring at him as soon as he stepped into the corridor.

 This is not an illusion, but a crisis warning brought by high awareness.

 “Is there an assassin?”

Su Lun suddenly became alert, and his hands were already quietly touching the handle of the gun.

At this moment, a cold dagger suddenly and silently pressed against his neck from the back.

 At this moment, Su Lun’s fighting experience allowed him to make the most timely response. His super high nerve reaction speed allowed him to make pre-judgmental dodge movements before the dagger cut his throat.

 Then, an elbow hit the attacker in the abdomen.

 The assassin groaned, and the moment the guy curled up, a musket was pressed against his chin.

 However, Su Lun did not fire.

  If it were anywhere else, this guy's head would have exploded.

 Because Su Lun thought of what Kai had said before, he was more cautious. Now that there are cadres here, the attack is somewhat intriguing.

 Test?

 Sure enough, at this moment, Qian Tiao's familiar voice sounded not far away, "I told you it's very good, you must try it..."

  These words were naturally not addressed to Su Lun, but to the people in the room.

 After speaking, Qianjiao called Su Lun from afar and said with a smile: "Come, sister will introduce you to someone."

 “…”

 Seeing this gambling-addicted young woman, Su Lun raised his eyebrows and then breathed a sigh of relief.

 Hence he naturally inserted the gun into the holster on his waist and walked over.

 Walking into the private room, he saw a very saucy woman.
