Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 57: The fun of rich people (asking for monthly tickets and recommended votes)

 Are you paying bribes so blatantly?

Su Lun suddenly felt that this fat man was very "spiritual".

　　A fox suddenly emerged from a group of proud lions. I have to say it was quite interesting.

Furthermore, this guy said very thoughtfully: "Brother, don't worry about other things. These are reasonable rules. Just accept them with confidence. They are considered my employment fees. The academy's trial rules are to use all available Just use resources to pass the test, and there is no prohibition on hiring guides. If it weren’t for the teaching assistants ignoring me, I would still send them..."

 Hearing this, Su Lun suddenly felt that this fat man was very appetizing.

 A business family, no wonder they are so smart.

 Senjou said before he came that some shrewd students might give him gifts to pass the trial, so just ask him to accept them with peace of mind. Su Lun accepted the fat man's thick stack of banknotes without any psychological burden.

 Fatty watched Su Lun collect the money and breathed a sigh of relief, and started chatting casually: "My father told me that we don't need to be great, we just need to find our own career position. In the future, I He will be a big businessman, as long as he knows how to make money, fighting is a matter for bodyguards. To tell you the truth, I came to the academy just to get a diploma. In the future, I can show off in the upper class..."

Su Lun smiled slightly when he heard this. He had to say that what this honest fat man said made sense.

 Not everyone has to be able to fight on their own, especially for the big chaebols in the upper class who have monopolized resources. Just leave the work of working hard to your subordinates.

 Charlie was very talkative, and he said mysteriously: "I have received information from reliable sources, saying that the school intends to increase the difficulty of the trial this time, and the casualty quota will be increased to 10%. Although I know for sure Instructor August is following us, but it is certainly impossible for the instructor to take care of everyone in such a complex environment. After all, there were casualties in the previous trials..."

 After a pause, the fat man continued: "Besides, I'm not afraid of your jokes. Every time the casualties are caused by non-combatants like us..."

 “…”

Su Lun couldn’t laugh or cry.

 This guy is really self-aware. In actual combat trials, whoever is weaker will most likely be the "casualty quota".

But the fat man is just the tail of the crane, and he is called a "non-combatant". This fat guy is really shameless.

 Su Lun also took a special look at this. It seemed that the fat man's group were all rookies who couldn't even hold a gun in the right posture.

 The powerful students all gathered together for the sake of trial results, and the rest of them, the weak ones, formed the group of fat guys.

At this time, Charlie knew that it would not be good to be away from the team for too long, so he didn’t say much, and just said to Su Lun: "In case we are in danger, please be sure to take care of my team. Well...especially It's me!"

 Su Lun saw that Jian had such a strong desire to survive, and after all, he accepted the money, and nodded, "Yeah."

  He wouldn't mind taking care of the fat man if necessary.

 But it seems that this kind of spring outing-level trial is not necessary at all.

  .....

Fat Charlie came to Su Lun. Although he deliberately avoided everyone's sight, some people noticed his sneaky behavior.

 One person passed it on to two people, and soon everyone knew about it.

 Still at the entrance of the cave, I haven't encountered any monsters, and the students have begun to whisper.

 "Hey, that guy Charlie probably took bribes again. That guy bribed the examiner last time and just passed the exam. He did it again this time, which is really embarrassing for our elite class..."

 "Hmph, is a guide worth spending money to please? I heard that those guys in the outer city even treasure the black iron plant installation blueprints, and don't even understand basic alchemy knowledge. How powerful can they really be? If something happens, I'm afraid we will have to protect him."

  "Shhh... that's a gang member! I heard my mother say that gangsters are ruthless murderers. They have despicable and dirty plans in their minds, and those who like to kidnap the most are those of us in the inner city. Money man..."

 "We must not provoke gangsters. My father also said that those guys are like rats hiding in the dark. They will do anything to achieve their goals..."

 “…”

Su Lun could feel some vague glances on him.

Although I didn’t hear clearly what those guys were whispering to each other, it was definitely not about praising him for being handsome.

 Thinking about it, in the eyes of those pampered young men and ladies, I, a gang member from the outer city, would probably be a grinning monster...

  ......

 As the trial team gradually deepened, some small groups of monsters began to appear around them.

 Probably because Su Lun and Kai killed too many people last time, only a few monsters that could climb walls appeared. They hung from the ceiling overhead, crawling around like geckos.

 At this time, the students gradually adapted to the dark environment and began to become bolder.

 They shot several big rats that went astray, and the sound was heard deep in the cave.

 Then, some small waves of monsters attacked one after another.

 The students gradually found their confidence after being panicked at first. Under the powerful firepower, the monster will die suddenly in an instant.

Su Lun felt a little bored.

 Pure fire suppression, no technology or tactics at all.

 But he finally realized the joy of rich people in this world.

The equipment of these second-generation rich people is so luxurious. All kinds of alchemy bullets seem to be free of charge. Just a few bucks can cost 100,000 to 80,000 yuan in ammunition.

 Poor marksmanship?

 It doesn’t matter, let’s learn about high-explosive bombs.

 Hitting the target has the same effect as a troll, exploding in a wide range.

 Too many monsters?

 It doesn’t matter, let’s learn about the repeating machine gun.

 If one shot fails, a hundred shots will be fired suddenly, and one of them will always hit.

 It’s like a group of magical players who come to clear low-level dungeons. Even if they are low-level and have no experience, it does not prevent them from passing the level without loss.

 Of course, this kind of scene will never appear in a "serious" hunter team.

 With this method of play, the value of the cursed materials harvested is less than one percent or one thousandth of the ammunition consumed.

Su Lun looked at it with a complicated look. If they had had this equipment and firepower, they would not have almost died here.

 Sure enough, in any world, anyone with money can do whatever they want.

  .....

 However, equipment is only one aspect.

Su Lun had to admit that most of the knowledge mastered by these students who had gone through systematic study was at the truly elite level, crushing more than 99% of the people in the outer city.

 Whether it is complex legal alchemy, mechanical armor, or medical skills, they are proficient in them all... Although they have equipment support and immature operations, they cannot hide their aura of talent.

 A lot of knowledge, even advanced fields that Su Lun has never heard of.

  He is good at firearms, so naturally he cares more about gunners.

 There is a student in the team who is good at marksmanship. Su Lun heard the people next to him call him "Jack". He seems to be the only guy in this class of Black Tower Academy who has won the "Marksman Medal".

 He was also the student who shot the most aberrant monsters along the way.

 Speaking of skills alone, this Jack should have reached the threshold of a "gun expert".

 But that’s all.

 These students still lack practical experience after all.

 A very standard process of attacking, drawing a gun, aiming, shooting... traces of stereotyped training can be seen everywhere.

 I can’t say it’s not good, it’s just that the fixed marks of this kind of marksmanship are too obvious and it lacks some flexibility.

 Furthermore, to measure whether a shooter has reached the level of a "gun expert", in addition to target shooting performance, the most important thing is the actual combat mentality.

Su Lun is very confident. Against this Jack, the opponent doesn't even have a chance to draw his gun.

 But they are just imaginary enemies, and it is impossible for them to fight against them.

 After all, unlike those in the outer city who risk their lives for a living, these little nobles in the inner city have no need to risk their lives to gain practical experience. This trial is already the most dangerous experience in their lives.

  .....

 “If the trial is completed like this, it seems quite boring.”

Su Lun followed the team without drawing his gun during the whole process, and he had no sense of participation.

 The five teams were pushing forward like they were playing a monster-fighting game.

 They killed monsters and collected some samples of aberrant monsters and water sources.

 But these sporadic monsters seem to be unable to satisfy their overwhelming sense of accomplishment, and they are still far away from completing the mission.

 They need a more exciting sensory experience and more monsters.

 At this time, Jack, the "sharp shooter" who led the team, suddenly remembered something and asked Suellen behind the team: "Hey, guide, how should we go now? Where are the most monsters in this cave?"

 The tone is very rude.

Su Lun looked at the two teaching assistants and said nothing, acquiescing to the students' choice.

  He thought for a moment, pointed in the direction where the scythe was in his mind, and said, "When we came here before, we saw monsters running towards that side. I thought that side should be their lair."

 Since these guys didn't have enough fun killing monsters, they just used their super firepower to clear this passage.

 The two assistant teachers did not take action, and the second-level instructor hiding in the dark did not show up either.

 Such a team configuration is enough to sweep through the cave area.

 When everyone heard this, they all became excited: "Okay, let's go over there! We must find the monster's lair this time, and maybe we can also encounter the 'weird' one, hahaha..."

 All the students were still immersed in the excitement of the adventure, but they did not know that the two assistant teachers following the team looked at each other and smiled mysteriously.

 PS. Tomorrow, the 1st, I will request a wave of monthly tickets and recommended tickets in advance. Brothers, please, please~
