Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 552: Golden Sea
Ten days later.
On the endless sea, a huge black-sailed ship was sailing.
Su Lun was meditating in the captain's cabin, when suddenly a golden light flashed through the window, causing him to open his eyes.
Looking at the bright sunshine outside the window, he walked to the window with his mind. Looking through the glass, he saw a golden wave of waves.
"It turns out we have arrived at the Golden Sea."
Seeing the charming golden ocean outside the window, Su Lun calculated the voyage in his mind and guessed the current location of the Dawn Group.
This is a sea area marked as the "Golden Sea" on the chart of the Kingdom of Dragon. Because there is a kind of golden seaweed in the seawater, the seawater under the sunlight will reflect a golden light, like a piece of liquid gold paving the ocean.
This is also a spectacular view that cannot be seen elsewhere.
The golden eyes filled the cabin, making all the furniture in the room seem to be coated with a layer of gold paint.
At this moment, thousands of lazy voices sounded in the room, "Hey, where are we?"
"Golden Sea."
Su Lun responded, then thought about it and added: "In about two or three days, we will arrive at the ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons, which is also a real high-risk sea area."
These days, he and Mr. Hei in the Small Void Realm have carefully studied all the classics and documents that were previously robbed by the Silver Dragon Royal Family. Based on what Bartolo said, they have almost confirmed a lot of information about dangerous sea areas. Along the way, we encountered many dangers.
Yes, they are about to arrive at the "Ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons".
After hunting the desk silver dragon, Su Lun and the others stopped following the magic airship castle.
Because it doesn’t make much sense to follow.
Previously, the group destroyed three groups of 10,000 people. But the next time we encounter them, the opponent will definitely be prepared. The risk of fighting is very high.
Without the external force of the Silver Dragon, the current Dawn Regiment does not have the strength to withstand a head-on confrontation with a group of tens of thousands of people.
You won't get any advantage if you follow me.
So, changing the route to avoid it is the best choice.
And the purpose of those guys from the plane of gods coming to the waters of the Kingdom of Dragon is to find the [Fountain of Mimir].
Suellen knows where the spring is. He has a chart of the Dragon Kingdom in his hand, as well as Bartolo, a guide who has been to the ruins before, and Tani and his mother Friedl, who have absolute navigation assistance. A member of the Perception Department. The probability of finding a spring is very high.
If we can really successfully intercept Hu, it can be regarded as completely destroying the plans of those in the plane of gods, and it will even be better than the effect achieved by killing those people in the group.
So these days, Dawn has sailed along the same route that the Black Sam Pirates sailed thirty years ago.
When Qian Jiao heard this, his expression did not change at all.
She stretched lazily, and her chest, which was not bound by bandages, also trembled. She called Su Lun and said, "Let's go to the deck to get some fresh air?"
Su Lun was slightly surprised when he heard this, and a flash of expectation flashed in his eyes as he asked: "Sister Qiantiao, have you made a breakthrough?"
Since the last time he hunted the silver dragon, Qianjou has been in seclusion.
She is such a restless person that she has never gone out. Unexpectedly, she actually wanted to go out today.
It must be a breakthrough in realm.
Qianjou raised his eyebrows slightly as he listened. He didn't know that he was asking about the realm of the Sword God, but that description was not accurate. She also found it troublesome to explain, so she only responded: "It's still early. I just have some insights."
"Oh."
Su Lun shrugged as he listened, it was indeed not that easy to break through.
Thinking that he had not been on the deck for a few days, he said: "Let's go up and have a look."
Qianjou also stood up, took off his swordsman robe, walked to the mirror, picked up a bandage and wrapped it around it, then pursed his lips, as if it was troublesome to bind his chest when going out.
While wrapping her corset, she looked at Su Lun in the mirror who was looking at him with great interest. She ignored that look and just asked: "By the way, Dr. Banks's 'Brother Bloodline Potion' Was the development successful?"
"Not yet."
Su Lun shook his head and said: "But it should be soon. The laboratory said that sample experiments are already underway."
He knew about the Qian Tiao Wen gene potion, so naturally he wanted to integrate it with the reproductive equipment.
The seventh-level lightning blue dragon that the Dawn Group hunted previously has been made into a breeding costume [Isaac's Dragon Pattern Golden Body·Thunder Dragon].
However, because the main material is a pure-blooded blue dragon, the refined breeding equipment is of a very high grade. Even if Senjou himself has a high affinity for thunder, the possibility of distortion due to the current fusion is very high.
Under normal circumstances, she might not be certain that the fusion will be successful until she reaches the eighth level.
But fortunately, there are biomancers in the Dawn Group who are at the top level of the alchemical plane. There is a shortcut to this fusion.
As long as the genetic potion is successfully developed, she can be equipped with this legendary breeding equipment just like her fifth-level fusion [Hand of the Void].
This kind of high-level breeding equipment will give the alchemist an irreplaceable advantage in combat power compared with those of the same level.
When Qianjou heard this, his expression in the mirror was slightly regretful, and he muttered: "Oh, that's a pity. I also thought about integrating the seventh-level reproductive equipment to see what the eighth-level hegemonic body is like. What's going on? After the last battle with the silver dragon, I vaguely came into contact with some deep insights of domineering body protection. I also got some ideas through meditation these days, but my physical strength is not strong enough to support some of my ideas, and I can't I know if it’s right or not.”
"."
Su Lun's eyes twitched slightly.
Is this the realization of the eighth-level hegemonic body?
Just like she felt that there was no threshold for understanding the field, these words always give people an air of pretentiousness.
But Su Lun was also full of joy and expectation.
Qianjou’s strength does not come entirely from talent, she also gained it step by step.
But Senjou himself didn't seem to have much feeling about her exaggerated progress, and his expression remained calm. She had already wrapped her bra and hung her sword on her waist.
The two of them walked out.
At this moment, the deck of the Evernight was bustling with activity.
"Wow, I caught three more golden shells! Haha, I am the 'first lucky star' in the group!"
"You don't count. Miss No. 19 is our ship's 'first lucky angel'!"
"Oh, of course, how can I compare with Captain No. 19."
"."
This golden sea not only has golden seaweed, but there are also many shellfish creatures on the seabed that feed on seaweed, which gives them very beautiful golden shells.
Although the gold content is not high, those golden shells and conches are natural works of art. If you really want to take back Luying Mafa and put it up for auction, it may not be cheaper than real gold.
The crew also happily fished in the sea, which was a little fun during the voyage.
As soon as Su Lun and Qian Jiao walked up, they heard the voice of First Navigator Shitani from the loudspeaker on the ship: "Be careful, everyone, we have crossed the Giant Elephant Island, ahead of us This is the territory of the Titan Kraken, and there may be many large deep-sea monsters in the sea."
Everyone looked back and saw Tani in the cockpit.
However, his warning did not make the atmosphere on the ship become serious. Instead, the crew laughed at him.
"Hahaha, are you going to improve the food tonight again? Captain Tani, it's up to you, find those sea monsters and leave the rest to our 'Whaling Team'!"
"Oh, our 'artillery team' has just put new equipment online, and we just need a big monster to test its firepower. If a monster with no eyes really attacks the ship, it's up to us."
"We can't let your artillery regiment take action! The prey shot by the artillery last time smelled of gunpowder when eaten. What a waste."
"Don't worry about eating, everyone. Our partners in the laboratory said they need samples. It's best to catch a few live ones!"
"."
Everyone was chatting happily, and the boat was filled with laughter.
Fight after battle over the years, the cohesion of the Dawn Regiment has become stronger and stronger, and the cooperation among the members has become more and more tacit. For them, who had already hunted two pure-blood dragons, everything seemed not that difficult.
So much so that now, even if they encounter a powerful sea monster, everyone will only think of a few rare ingredients that they have never eaten before, rather than the risks.
Everyone has an inexplicable confidence that if they encounter difficulties, the Dawn Group will be able to solve them if they unite as one.
The fresh sea breeze blew on their cheeks, and both of them felt refreshed.
Su Lun and Qian Jiao walked to the deck and happened to listen to their friends talking about what to hunt for food tonight.
At this time, Lolota, who was practicing wind-slaying on the mast, saw the two Su Lun coming out with sharp eyes. His expression instantly cheered up, and he landed on the deck with a light leap.
She originally seemed to want to scare Su Lun and Su Lun, but both of them showed no expressions.
Lolota's uninterested expression, which did not scare anyone for a moment, suddenly turned full of expectation. A hint of weirdness flashed across her pure eyes, and she tried in a roundabout way: "Teacher, you have been in seclusion for so long, they They say you are going to break through the Sword Master and become a Sword God."
After hearing this, Senjo hit her on the forehead with his sword scabbard angrily, "It's early! You girl, you don't understand the meaning of your sword, and you just keep making noises all day long."
"Oh, teacher, why are you hitting me on the head again?"
Lolota touched her forehead, pouted and complained: "Mr. Black said that people who keep hitting their heads will become stupid."
As she spoke, she glanced at Su Lun next to her out of the corner of her eye, revealing a playful snicker.
Su Lun couldn't help but laugh.
At this time of the conversation, the crew on the deck watched the two people walking onto the deck, and each of them greeted them warmly: "Mr. Su Lun, Sister Senjo!"
Everyone gathered around, chatting in all directions. Of course, the one who asked the most was whether Senjou had advanced to the level of Sword God.
Qian Tiao's explanation is also a bit helpless. It is difficult to describe something above the Holy Realm. The so-called Sword God Realm is too general. She did touch the threshold of breaking the rules a little bit, but that little bit of understanding could not be described in words.
Coincidentally, it was probably because the noise was too loud that it alerted the monsters on the bottom of the sea.
At this moment, there was a sound of waves, and a tentacle suddenly appeared on the sea in the distance.
Someone shouted excitedly: "Wow, I just said Kraken, and the Kraken is here!"
Everyone looked at it and thought it was a big eel, and they were already thinking about whether it should be grilled or sashimied.
But when I looked again, countless tentacles emerged from the sea.
It turned out that it was not an eel, but an ugly monster with sarcoma-like tentacles. It has the signature multi-mouthed serrations of **** creatures, and giant compound eyes that make people's scalp numb.
Compared with its bloated sarcoma body, the tentacles are very slender, like red threads.
No matter how you look at it, it is not a normal creature, but a distorted and irregular monster.
Su Lun frowned as he looked at it and identified it as [Deformed Hell Titan Ghost Snake (Level 6 Silver)].
The faces of the crew members who had previously been thinking about hunting sea beasts for food became ugly.
"Ah, this sea monster is so ugly. Is this thing edible?"
"Is there some source of distortion nearby? Otherwise, how could there be aberrations? They look like legendary **** creatures."
"Yes. Such a huge monster has been polluted and deformed. The source of pollution must not be simple. We have to be careful."
"."
Many members of the Dawn Group came from Old Lingdun, and they are very familiar with distortions.
Seeing this strange monster in front of me, I naturally immediately thought of the source of the distortion.
Su Lun also frowned, and the first thing that came to his mind was this question.
He was not surprised that there were hell-bred aberrations in the sea.
Because Bartolo said before that there are a large number of **** creatures and aberrant creatures deep in the ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons.
However, that biological zone is hundreds of sea miles further to the west. How could it appear near the Golden Sea?
Without much thought, the tentacle monster's tentacles danced like seaweed, and it looked like it wanted to cause trouble for the Dawn Group.
Because it has Titan blood, this monster is very large and has many tentacles underwater.
There are ripples rolling on the sea surface, and it looks like there are tentacles protruding over.
The Dawn Group, who had previously been enthusiastic about hunting sea monsters for meat, looked disgusted, and no one actively wanted to go to the sea. However, the artilleryman was already ready to fire two shots at the ugly monster.
But at this moment, Senjo muttered, "How ugly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a domineering sword energy rose into the sky from the deck.
Listening to the sharp clang of the long sword being unsheathed, a cold light seemed to flash before my eyes.
But if you look closely, you can only see the slow movement of her sheathing the knife.
At this time, a wave of air came slowly, blowing the clothes of everyone on the deck.
Su Lun's pupils keenly captured her movements, and she muttered in her heart: "Sure enough, she has become stronger again."
Looking again, the sword energy, like a crack in space, quickly swept across the deck and headed straight for the monster.
If you look at it from the side, you can see that it is a crescent sword energy. After the sword energy left the sword edge, it became larger and larger, and finally became dozens of meters long.
The sea monster a few hundred meters away was still wreaking havoc, and a blood line appeared on the compound eye on its head. Then there was a "swish" sound, and blood splattered everywhere, and half of the head slipped off, revealing a smooth slash wound.
With one cut, the scarlet color exploded!
Seeing this, everyone on the deck was stunned for a moment, and then burst into fierce cheers.
"Wow, Sister Senjo is so amazing!"
"This sword is too terrifying. Can you kill such a powerful monster without accumulating energy?"
"Oh my God, Sister Senjo, is this the realm above the Sword Master?"
"."
Everyone was talking excitedly.
Even Su Lun felt strong after seeing it.
With just a casual slash, a sixth-order silver-level monster was killed. This is really amazing.
At least the previous Qianjou would never have been so easy.
And Su Lun saw something else. The sword energy was not just a physical slash, it seemed to be some kind of higher-level destruction.
Otherwise, the energy fluctuations detected visually would not be enough to cut such a huge monster into two pieces.
I haven’t drawn my sword for so many days, and I was too nervous for Senjou’s character, so I just killed him casually. But looking at the results, she frowned slightly, as if she wasn't too satisfied, as if something was missing somewhere.
The monster was killed before it had a chance to show off its evil, and everyone in the Dawn Group stopped watching.
Some people on board took small boats to salvage some corpse fragments from the sea.
You can't eat it, but you can also dismantle cursed materials and leave some samples for the biological laboratory.
Su Lun and Qian Jiao were watching everyone busy on the side of the ship. At this time, they heard slight footsteps.
Su Lun looked back and greeted with a smile: "Senior Bartolo, you are here."
Bartolo smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Senjou, whom he hadn't seen for ten days, and praised again: "That sword strike you just made was really good. Using your mind to break magic, this path is very suitable. Your sword."
Qianjou listened with respect, "Thank you also for your guidance, senior."
For this senior swordsman who had given her guidance many times, she truthfully expressed her doubts and asked for advice: "Senior, when I slashed the sword just now, there seemed to be some resistance that prevented me from slashing it. Otherwise, the power of that sword should be greater."
Bartolo smiled with a complicated expression and explained: "That is the backlash of the laws of heaven and earth. After your power reaches a certain limit, you will find that the laws begin to reject you, because you have gradually glimpsed the true meaning of 'them' . Originally it was impossible for you at this level to understand and have no access to it, so it is normal for you to be confused. You will understand it after you advance to the eighth level."
Qianjou didn’t know whether he understood or not, and looked thoughtful.
Anyway, Su Lun next to me didn’t understand.
But I also understand that Senjou's sword has the power of laws beyond the rank itself.
However, after the two finished chatting about swordsmanship, Su Lun also pointed to the corpse of the deformed monster in the distance and asked: "Senior, I remember you said that monsters born from **** should be farther west. Is it normal to appear here? ?"
The waters of the Kingdom of Dragon are extremely dangerous areas, and Su Lun does not dare to be careless at all.
Whenever there is an abnormality, it's best to figure it out.
"This is also the strange thing about me."
Hearing this, Bartolo also looked suspicious. He pondered for a moment before responding: "The time we came more than 20 years ago, we would not encounter the hell-type aberrations at least a few hundred nautical miles to the west. Creatures. And this boundary is very clear, because the aberrations of the **** species only live in places where the aura of **** is strong, and the higher the level, the more so. That range is a large circle, which is far less than this side of the Golden Sea."
Su Lun understood instantly after hearing this, and asked: "You mean, the air of **** has spread?"
Bartolo nodded and said: "This is the only possibility. It is probably because the **** volcano deep in the ruins erupted again, which caused the air of **** to spread and the monster's territory also expanded to the periphery."
After a pause, a look of solemnity appeared in his eyes, and he added: "In other words, from now on, we have actually entered the most dangerous zone."
"Yeah."
Su Lun's eyes became slightly solemn as he listened.
Although they took the same route as the Black Sam Regiment, nearly thirty years have passed and the environment in many sea areas has changed. It's like this aberrant monster appearing in the periphery.
In other words, even if they go in the same way, they will encounter many unpredictable dangers.
From now on, the real test begins.
