Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 535: Famous sword [A-cut frost flower whisper]
The news that the evil dragon Kazka, who had been entrenched on Thunder Island for hundreds of years, was killed soon spread to the city of Atlanta.
The residents of the city cheered that this serious problem was finally solved.
However, no one knew that a mysterious man in a cloak had already taken advantage of the crowd to blend into the city lord's castle.
Not long after, in the basement of the city lord's mansion.
The city lord Balder and his beloved wife and family were originally hiding in the basement, still waiting for news that the evil dragon had eaten the sacrifice and left.
However, instead of waiting for good news, came bad news.
At this moment, there are only a dozen humanoid stone sculptures with frightened faces in the basement.
Only Balder is still alive.
The Lord City Lord's body has partially turned into a demonic form at this moment, which is the hidden power brought by his worship of the evil god.
It was also by relying on the power of the evil **** that they were able to stand firm in Atlanta for hundreds of years.
But even so, in front of this mysterious cloaked man, Balder still had no power to resist. He could only kneel down and beg for mercy with a look of horror on his face: "My lord, my Rodriguez family does have a royal secret box inheritance. Come down. But because the treasure house was stolen and set on fire the night before, I don’t know who stole it."
When the cloaked man heard this, a gray light suddenly burst out from his cloaked eyes.
Balder still wanted to escape, but his body had turned into a gray-white petrified state visibly. .-
On the other hand.
Su Lun was invited and followed the flying dragon knights of the Miracle Legion on their journey to Eklensa, the royal capital of the Silver Dragon Kingdom.
The flying dragon could not carry many people, so there were only two of him and Gan Tiao. The rest of the Dawn Group continued to take the boat and headed north along the coastline. Su Lun felt a little strange riding on a flying dragon for the first time.
But after riding for a while, I lost much interest.
The dragon and the pure-blooded dragon look very similar in appearance, but their strength is very different. They are like poodles and lions. They can almost be said to be two species.
Probably he had fought a giant dragon before, and the difference in comparison was very obvious. But they are dragonborn after all, and these flying dragons are much more powerful than ordinary monsters of the same level.
Su Lun thought that he would have the opportunity to get some samples for the war workshop in the small void world to see if he could make some mechanical flying dragons that could meet special combat needs.
The burst speed of the dragon is quite fast, but its long-distance flight is average. Most of the time, I was gliding on the air current, and I had to take many breaks to eat. I usually didn’t fly at night and traveled only two to three thousand kilometers a day.
It's not very stable yet.
Anyway, apart from looking handsome, there is no comfort when riding. Bennett, the commander of the regiment, said that it would take two full days to fly to the king.
Su Lun also patiently meditated on the dragon's back.
Because it was already afternoon when we set off, it got dark not long after the flight. A group of flying dragon knights landed in a forest.
The dragon knights set up camp and lit a bonfire in the camp.
After getting along with them for half a day, Su Lun realized that it was quite troublesome to tame these flying dragons. It is difficult to satisfy the consumption of the flying dragon army by hunting alone. At least these knights need to carry a large amount of meat with them. People can go hungry, but they cannot let these flying dragon monsters go hungry.
Beside the campfire, although the march was simple, Su Lun and the two were also warmly received.
The knights hunted some magical beasts unique to the Kingdom of Dragon in the forest and roasted them on the bonfire. It didn't take long for the aroma to fill the air.
Su Lun and Gan Tiao got the best part.
They also felt that it was quite pleasant to get along with Bennett, the commander of the regiment.
Talkative, brave, and extraordinary in temperament...strong people always have something in common, and Bennett left a good impression on the two of them.
Because Su Lun has stripped away the common language of the Dragon Kingdom, communication is no longer hindered.
With nothing to do after dinner, Bennett and several of his senior generals and subordinates also asked about the legendary overseas civilization with great interest.
"Captain Su Lun, what kind of country do you come from? I think you and your friends are very special. It seems that you are not practicing fighting spirit"
"We are alchemists, from the human empire in the west. Well, we are roughly the same as your wizards, I like it
Study everything about nature. But we have no belief in gods. We are an adventure group, and the main reason we came here is to have adventure in the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons"
"The ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons? Oh, it's very dangerous over there. As far as I know, there are a lot of super monsters there"
"Captain Bennett, your information has really helped us a lot! I mean, it would be better if there were charts."
"Of course, there are some charts left by adventurers in the library of the royal capital. I can give you some if you need them."
"I saw that some of your crew members have metal limbs. Oh my God, that day was magical. How could metal arms grow in flesh?"
"That's a mechanical prosthesis, and it's also a branch of alchemy..."
"The ancestors have always said that the Sea of Eternal Night is extremely dangerous. How did you get here? Oh, my grandfather was an explorer. He once wanted to cross that dangerous sea, but he disappeared in the end."
“-“
After chatting and chatting, the content of the chat between the two parties became broader.
Although Su Lun knew that these royal knights were also seeking information, there was nothing to hide.
Through chatting, he also got to know some secrets that only senior officers knew, such as some legends about the eighth-level silver dragon protecting the country on the snowy mountain of the royal capital, and some legends about the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons.
However, Su Lun felt that the most important thing was the plane invasion.
Let this information be known to the top leaders of the three kingdoms of the Dragon Kingdom as soon as possible, which will also be more beneficial to preventing the actions of those mages from the plane of gods.
Hearing Su Lun's words, Legion Commander Bennett was also shocked: "Planar invasion? Like the invasion of **** and volcanoes?"
"Yeah."
Su Lun nodded and briefly explained what he knew.
He knew from the Naga tribe before that there was a volcano connected to **** in the center of the ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons in the east, and from time to time **** creatures came out to harm humans.
So these dragon knights can also quickly understand the concept of plane invasion. When Su Lun elaborated, these knights immediately felt the crisis.
Although I didn't completely believe what he said, at least the information informed me, and I had some intelligence preparations in the future.
The reason why I say so much is entirely because Su Lun guessed that if those guys from the plane of gods knew that there was a human kingdom in this sea area, they would definitely pay attention to it.
After all, their ship was blown up by the Dawn Regiment before, so even if more people teleported over, they would only be trapped on Rainbow Island.
If you want to change the status quo, you will definitely need some ships.
If you can enslave the three kingdoms, you will have a firm foothold in treasure hunting in this sea area.
In fact, Su Lun vaguely felt that those magicians might have discovered the existence of the three kingdoms and tried to infiltrate them.
When the topic of chatting came to plane invasion, the atmosphere became more solemn.
As it was almost midnight, Bennett didn't interrupt anymore and arranged for Su Lun and Su Lun to rest in the best tent.
Unconsciously, the night is already deep.
Su Lun and Qian Jiao were meditating and resting in the tent.
There are hundreds of flying dragons in the camp, and no monsters in the forest dare to come near, so it is very quiet.
But around one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, Su Lun suddenly heard a movement, and there were some more people in the camp. He didn't even open his eyes, and muttered in his heart: "Hey, it turns out that a prisoner was brought back?"
While flying in the afternoon, he saw the falcon flying for communication. The Miracle Legion seemed to have received some secret mission, and some people were sent to other places.
The group of people who just came back are the ones who left in the afternoon. Su Lun used his soul perception and could easily tell the difference.
Moreover, when they came back, they brought a prison van covered with black cloth? It seems that the Miracle Corps wants to bring this "prisoner" to the royal capital.
There was obviously a human being in the prison car, but the slight fluctuations in his soul made Su Lun feel a little strange: "That's strange, what kind of existence is in this prison car?"
Su Lun was curious and paid more attention.
It's not that it's strong. It's just a bit cold, and it doesn't seem like a pure human soul. Outside the tent, a black crow
Looking at everything in the camp.
Sharing the vision, Su Lun also saw this scene clearly.
The strange thing is that the prison car was placed in the center of the camp. The knights guarded it tightly, but no one lifted the black cloth to see what it was.
Probably some secret prisoner.
But after all, it had nothing to do with him, and Su Lun had no intention of prying more.
After observing for a while and finding no abnormalities, Su Lun put aside his curiosity and continued to meditate. Unconsciously, the night is already deep.
Suddenly, Qian Jiao also opened his eyes, frowned and said, "I feel like something is not right tonight." Su Lun also opened his eyes when he heard this.
He held the black umbrella and felt it carefully, but he didn't feel anything.
Everything is normal in the camp, the knights take turns to rest, the flying dragon is also very quiet, and the prisoner in the cage has no movement.
Looking at the dozing black crow, the old man didn't say anything. Nothing unusual.
But Su Lun didn't dare to be careless.
Qianjo is a pure combat professional, and her ability to perceive crises is extraordinary. The two looked at each other, neither confirming what the strangeness pointed to.
Being targeted?
Some kind of mysterious magic points to them? Like divination?
A series of conjectures flashed through Su Lun's mind.
The two of them are now considered to be the handful of professionals at the top of the pyramid. If an enemy wants to do divination, it is almost impossible. But once it does happen, it will definitely lead to trouble.
Maybe those magicians in the plane of gods have done something big? Su Lun and the two thought, and they were already more alert.
However, not long after Senjo felt that way, she suddenly said urgently: "Here we come!" Without warning, a sad and choking dragon roar suddenly sounded in the forest.
"Ang~"
That was the sub-dragon sentry placed by the Miracle Corps on the outside, like the cry of the moment they were attacked and killed by some monster. Almost at the same time, everyone in the camp reacted instantly, and the sentry shouted: "Enemy attack!"
In an instant, the huge camp started to move.
Su Lun and Qian Jiao also walked out of the tent, just in time to see Legion Commander Bennett walking over with an apologetic look on his face, explaining: "Sorry to disturb the rest of the two distinguished guests. It looks like a tide of beasts. In Wu When camping in the forest in the human area, we often encounter them."
As he spoke, he put on his helmet and prepared to fight, and then said: "You two just continue to rest. Don't worry too much, we will take care of it."
Su Lun nodded and had nothing to remind him.
These professional knights have sufficient combat experience, and there is no need for him to say anything if they are in danger.
Bennet didn't say much, and quickly went to his flying dragon, turned over and rode on the dragon's back, and instantly jumped into the air. -.··
There are one or two thousand flying dragon knights in the camp, some of which have already been vacated. Their combat power cannot be underestimated. Su Lun and the others had no intention of participating in the battle, so they just watched the battle from the edge of the tent.
The battle was fierce, and increasingly exaggerated battle sounds came from the forest. Gradually, they also discovered that this was no ordinary beast tide.
Qian Tiao put his hands on the sword at his waist, and released his Qi, keenly capturing the fighting movements, and murmured: "The situation is not good."
Su Lun also nodded, frowning and lost in thought.
Suddenly, he looked at the prison car wrapped in black cloth not far away. "Are you here for the prisoner?"
Su Lun had this idea in his mind.
After all, ordinary prison cars don’t need to be escorted by the kingdom’s elite legions. And what a coincidence, as soon as it was delivered, there was a wave of beasts.
Su Lun felt that he and Qian Jiao might have been implicated. If he could help, he wouldn't mind helping.
But the Flying Dragon Legion is not weak. If it really needs the help of guests, the enemy will probably be ridiculously strong. Su Lun still felt that it was best not to take action.
However, things backfired.
At this moment, something strange happened!
Suddenly, a strange gray light illuminated a corner of the sky in the distance. The dozens of flying dragons in the sky that were still flapping their wings suddenly became stiff, and both the people and the dragon turned into stone gray.
Falling from a height of 100 meters, the sound of cracking gravel echoed through the entire camp.
Su Lun and Qian Jiao both have excellent night vision. They saw this bizarre scene clearly and their pupils shrank suddenly.
Because they didn't understand what the gray light was about. He actually killed a dozen fifth-level flying dragons in an instant?
Some people in the camp shouted loudly: "It's the Gorgon! Everyone, please don't look into its eyes!" Su Lun was also surprised when he heard this.
I actually met the legendary Gorgon? Without hesitation, both of them closed their eyes.
It is said that the banshee will be turned to stone if you look at it. They don't know how powerful they are.
The stone sculpture of Tani's mother is now in the Little Void Realm. The petrification of that kind of magical level has not yet been solved. Su Lun didn't think he had any means to stop it.
After this sudden change, the Feilong Legion, which had been so fierce just now, was immediately on the verge of defeat, and the "sound of gravel" in their ears became more and more intensive.
The sounds of the battle were getting closer and closer, and Su Lun immediately realized that what was coming might be a very high-ranking gorgon!
"Come for the camp?"
Su Lun is a little strange. The Gorgon is of demigod blood, and is a top creature in myths and legends like the dragon.
How come you have nothing to do to attack some human camp?
In an instant, some clues in his mind suddenly connected. Who is in the prison car at the camp?
Why did the queen of the Silver Dragon Kingdom fall under the petrification curse of the Gorgon? Who is the wanted "Helen"?
Su Lun felt that this matter seemed to involve some kind of big secret, and he was already prepared to teleport at all times.
A suspected rank gorgon was not easy to deal with. He didn't want to take risks before he was sure. However, they are not the only ones who want to quit.
As soon as this gorgon appeared, it caused huge casualties to the flying dragon army in the blink of an eye. They also have no effective means to deal with it.
At this moment, a knight in armor hurried over with his eyes closed and said very fast: "Two distinguished guests, the leader asked me to inform you to prepare to evacuate!"
Su Lun remembered that this was Bennett’s deputy general, and nodded politely, “Yes.”
Although he didn't need help from anyone else if he wanted to leave, at the critical moment Bennett still thought of taking care of the guests and evacuating first, which was considered kind.
For a time, the entire camp's flying dragon riders were divided into three parts. Legion Commander Bennett led a group of people to fight on the front line, some people were transporting the prison van, and another group of people planned to lead Su Lun and others to escape.
But before they could ride on the flying dragon, something unexpected happened again.
Qianjou seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly his expression became serious: "What a strong sword energy!"
A moment later, Su Lun also sensed the sudden arrival of the extremely cold sword energy, and shouted in his heart: "Dragon Hunter Bartolo Figaro, is this here? ”
At this moment, a biting and domineering sword energy suddenly exploded in the forest.
The surrounding air suddenly cooled down, and Su Lun shared the view through the black crows and saw pieces of snowflakes falling. This sword energy was quietly slashed out from hundreds of meters away, instantly turning the tide of the battle!
The Flying Dragon Knight Legion, which had been retreating steadily before and used their lives to block the monsters, instantly became inspired. Everyone knows that strong support is coming!
As a sword master, Senjo didn't sense the depth of this sword spirit. His expression was extremely fierce and he sighed: "This sword has surpassed the holy realm. Someone has really touched the legendary "Sword God Realm" Here we are.”
Sword God?
Su Lun was also slightly shocked.
In perception, the "Dragon Hunter" Bartolo seemed to kill the Gorgon with one sword, and the monsters besieging the camp in the forest dispersed in an instant.
He opened his eyes and saw an old man in the distance putting the handle of a long single-edged sword into a bamboo scabbard.
Su Lun identified the famous white-edged sword and sighed in his heart: "The second most famous sword in the "Twelve Famous Swordsmen of Good Works" [Kogiri Frost Flower Whisper]. It's really the Shinto Wu Nian Ryu." The great swordsman "Sword Demon" Yasaburo Saito."
This person’s bounty is still hanging in the Camping Bounty Guild.
And his sword is also the famous [Kogiri Frost Flower Whisper], ranking one higher than the demon sword [Onimaru Hyakume Munemasa] in Senjou's hand.
Because "Dragon Hunter" Bartolo suddenly appeared, the situation immediately reversed.
Seeing him kill the Gorgon with one sword, Su Lun also sighed: "What a strong strength."
If the "Sword Demon" was really the one he suspected, he would have already reached the peak of the seventh level when the bounty was placed on his head. Now it seems that the threshold of the eighth level has been passed.
And the sword strike just now was said by Qianjou to be beyond the holy realm. Obviously, Bartolo's current level of swordsmanship is already unknown.
Not long after, Bartolo put the head in a cloth bag, and the dragon knights in the camp dared to approach the fighting area to clean up the battlefield.
Su Lun also walked over and looked at the legendary Gorgon with curiosity. It was a headless corpse with a body and a snake's tail.
Hot blood was still gushing out from the broken neck. Strangely, the blood was black on the left side and red on the right side.
After appraisal, the left side is extremely poisonous, and the right side is a good medicine that can cure many diseases. Su Lun also lamented how special these mythical creatures were and how they were full of treasures.
The leader of the group, Bennett, was also very concerned about the matter and even took the initiative to give him a bottle of blood. To put it mildly, he almost caused them to be in danger.
Su Lun didn't feel any involvement, after all, there was no danger to them from beginning to end. Now, the [blood of the Gorgon] that was missing in the antidote to petrification was also available.
He looked at Bartolo and said hello: "Senior, we meet again." Bartolo nodded slightly, probably knowing that he was recognized. Now that they met again, Su Lun was not in a hurry to get close.
At this time, Legion Commander Bennett came over with a grateful look on his face and said: "Senior Bartolo, thanks to you this time, otherwise tonight would have been terrible. Why are you here?"
Bartolo responded: "I found traces of the Gorgon in the city of Atlanta before. I followed it all the way, and I happened to see it driving the monsters to besiege you."
Hearing this, Bennett was surprised and said: "Is this Gorgon from Atlanta?"
Bartolo nodded and said: "Yes. It killed sixteen members of the Atlan City Lord Bald's family and left some traces, so I chased them."
Bennet looked puzzled and asked: "Huh? Why did the Gorgon kill the city lord Balder?" Bartolo shook his head, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Perhaps. With you in the prison car. That one is related." -.·
Listening to the conversation between the two, Su Lun's expression was the same, but his heart was getting weirder and weirder.
He thought he was implicated by the Miracle Legion before, but after hearing Bartolo's words, a thought immediately came to his mind: You're not here for me, are you?
The Gorgon killed the city lord Balder? Why?
Su Lun suddenly made a bold guess.
Because the day before yesterday, he stole a snake-haired scepter from the treasure house of the city lord Balder.
What a coincidence, this Gorgon is here?
Is it because of the scepter?
If this is true, how did it know it was here? What does this Gorgon have to do with the people in the prison car?
For a moment, Su Lun felt as if he was quietly involved in a huge event.
To be continued
