Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 71: If you don’t have the conditions to win, just create the conditions

Su Lun discovered the assassin who appeared out of thin air behind him. Not only was he not surprised, but he had expected it.

He decisively tore off his leather jacket, and one of the two puppets let out an ear-piercing wail, and flew towards the enemy with a strange grin. Their hands also cracked open, revealing the black venom-quenched dagger blades.

The assassin staggered and seemed to have no idea why he suddenly lost consciousness. He bit his tongue and woke up instantly. But at this time, he saw that the poison-quenching blade was poking in front of his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

There was a "clang" sound and sparks flew everywhere.

The assassin blocked a puppet's dagger, but felt that he was in a trance again: No!

Instinctively reacting to a crisis, he made an extreme backward movement. At this time, the dagger of another puppet passed in front of the assassin's cheek, and with a slight corroding sound, a gap was cut at the edge of the hood.

"This guy is weird!"

The assassin saw something fishy, ​​and just as he was about to reach out and grab it, he suddenly saw the two puppets flying back like lightning.

If you can't get a hit, get out in time.

At this moment, as the manipulator, Su Lun also showed a look of pity on his face, thinking: "Second-level professionals are really not that easy to get hurt..."

The assassin on the opposite side looked at Su Lun in front of him, with a solemn look in his eyes: This is no ordinary puppet master!

.......

In fact, Su Lun had been reconstructing the entire assassination process in his mind long before he rescued Reina from the amoeba chase.

He had already guessed that there might be a spy in the trial team.

But that mentor August should be fine.

Otherwise, the killers wouldn’t have to go to such trouble to kill Reina. With his status as a mentor and his strength as a second-level professional, he has countless opportunities to directly kill Reina.

On the contrary, the reason why those killers chose to attack in the cave, and even deliberately created a special smell on Reina, and used amoebas to chase her... All of this is probably because of the protection of August along the way. , that’s why he made this decision.

Furthermore, Su Lun also discovered a suspicious point.

That is, he was sure that Augustus had been following the trial team, but this strong man died without any movement, which was a bit strange.

After all, the instructors of the Black Tower Alchemy Academy are all carefully selected strong men. Even if the second-level instructor August is attacked by a sneak attack, it is impossible that he will die without being able to send out a warning signal.

I didn’t know why before, but now I know the fact that Daniel is the mole, which just fills in Su Lun’s doubts.

Su Lun can even restore the entire battle process in his mind.

At that time, Daniel left the trial team, in fact, just to plot against August. Because of his status as an assistant coach, it was easy for him to successfully attack at close quarters, and then use his special talent [Demonstration] ability to ban August. But with his strength, he was still unable to kill a second-level expert, so Su Lun concluded that there was at least one second-level professional who was good at sneak attacks in the killer team.

For this reason, Su Lun was not surprised at all when a stalker appeared behind him just now.

.......

Facing second-level professionals, especially agility-enhanced rogues, guns have almost no effect.

Having witnessed the feat of the "Red Devil" Gron's knife in splitting bullets, Su Lun did not feel that he, the "gun master", had any chance of winning against a second-level professional.

So, he decisively gave up the musket and showed his professional ability for the first time: controlling puppets.

But Su Lun is no ordinary puppet master.

The most important reason why the "Puppet Master" is weird is to make all kinds of weird rune puppets.

The two dolls with blue runes next to him, one with a red and white smiling face and the other with a blue and gold crying face, are clearly two of the basic puppets, [Wailing Doll] and [Smiling Doll].

These two little things are not like the dull dead things in puppet shows. They seemed to have come alive under the control of Su Lun's nimble fingers, with their limbs dancing happily, their joints twisting flexibly, and even the expressions on their scary faces were vivid, including blinking, grinning, angry, wailing...

They are like two ghosts, dancing in the dark and making eerie laughter...

As soon as he appeared, a terrifying aura instantly enveloped the surrounding area.

Of course, the little cuties are not only cute and cute in appearance, but their curse effects are also extraordinary.

These two kinds of puppets are spiritual curses. One is a sonic attack, which will affect people's consciousness when hearing the sound; the other is a visual attack like these spider monsters. Looking directly at a smiling face will cause hallucinations.

After Su Lun knew that he was going to fight, he carried two dolls on his back to prevent any unexpected events.

Although his puppet making skills have just begun, the quality of the two puppets is not high and their attack range is very small. But this is enough to cause short-term mental control of close targets.

This is also the reason why the sneaking assassin suddenly appeared suddenly. That guy was affected by two mysterious puppets.

.......

"It disappeared again. That guy's talent should be a stealth-related ability, [Talent C-025-Chameleon], [Talent B-077-Invisibility], or the rarer [Light Absorber]... ."

Su Lun squinted and stared into the darkness, losing sight of the second-level assassin again.

He did not dare to be careless. The two puppets kept emitting mental fluctuations, laughing and crying, in order to ensure that he would not be killed at close range.

Obviously, although the Curse of the Puppet is very strong, its strength is still a big step behind.

Su Lun didn't think these two puppets could allow him to save his life in front of a second-level assassin.

After all, facing such assassins who are good at sneaking, the attack methods are not only close assassinations, the assassins are also good at various long-range weapons.

No matter how careful he is, the current situation is almost certain for Su Lun.

But...

In one-on-one, Su Lun really has no chance of winning, but there are more than just the two of them in this cave!

The dark caves under Old Lingdun are not the territory of humans, but the territory of deformed monsters.

Since there is no chance of winning, create a chance of winning!

Su Lun made such a big noise in this cave, and those [Abnormal Ghost-faced Spiders] hiding in the dark have long been hungry and thirsty.

He caught a glimpse of the black spiders above his head, and sneered in his heart: "Hehe, let's see who can survive among the monsters..."

Potions to block monster perception are difficult to find, but bait to attract aberrant monsters is even easier to find.

Fresh human blood, corpses... are the best things.

Daniel's body on the ground was steaming with steam, and the several "inducing potions" that Su Lun had smashed before were also emitting a pungent smell.

Since monsters are enemies and assassins are also enemies, how about a three-party melee?

"He" likes the feeling of dancing on the blade very much.

.......

Su Lun has mastered almost all the characteristics of the monster and has targeted methods to deal with it, but the second-level assassin knows nothing about it.

This is a mutated monster, which means that the outside world has never seen it before.

Psychic attacks are unpredictable and will not give anyone any chance of making mistakes. Once controlled, it is destined to be a dead end.

At this time, these spider monsters did not disappoint Su Lun.

These eight-legged monsters hang upside down from the ceiling and run extremely fast.

The first thing they did was not to attack the three humans in the space, but to rustle to the entrance of the corridor, then spit out spider silk, blocking the escape route in the blink of an eye.

"Seal the entrance of the cave? This is not a wisdom that ordinary aberrant monsters can possess. There is indeed something 'weird' hidden in the monster group..."

Seeing this, Su Lun raised his eyebrows slightly.

He had always felt that there was a cold gaze somewhere in the darkness that made his back shiver, watching him from time to time. Now that he saw the abnormal behavior of these spiders "blocking the door", he immediately guessed that there was a "weird" one in this group of ghost-faced spiders!

However, it is just what he wanted.

He had no intention of escaping.

Anyway, if you want to get the sickle, you have to go deep into the spider swarm to fight fiercely. It doesn't make any difference whether you bet or not.

He can't run away, and the assassin is also restricted.

It happened that there was a big melee between the three parties.
