Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 160 See also the "§" symbol

According to the original plot, "pollution" will only occur at midnight, and the entire 1911 Hotel will become weird.

The wild hunters came in to get the materials, and they would only do it after midnight, because those ordinary people were deformed into weirdness, and they would only produce the curse materials.

But Su Lun can't wait for that time.

The magician was really going to be deformed, and Su Lun felt that he was not sure to kill him.

Moreover, now that the four "forbidden rooms" on the first floor have been opened, he feels that there may be other changes to tonight's pollution incident.

To solve the problem, you have to come early.

Su Lun walked towards the stage, then walked backstage through the side door through the staff passage.

He planned to stop the magician when he stepped down.

Because he heard from the information that after the magician got off the stage, no one saw him again.

Su Lun felt that he might teleport away with his spatial ability, so he had to go to the background to guard him.

After the stage, there is the dressing room, which is slightly cramped.

The dancers of "Swan Song and Dance Troupe" are changing their clothes here.

There was a staff guarding the door. Su Lun took off his hat, revealed his face, and flashed his police badge. He walked in without any obstruction.

The dancers are probably used to changing outfits on the fly during the show, and don't mind not having a separate changing room. When Su Lun came in, he was watching the young girls dressed in cool, curvaceous figures changing their costumes in the narrow dressing room.

Seeing a strange man walk in, the girls first covered their naked bodies like frightened deer. But after seeing Su Lun's handsome face clearly, the dancers calmed down again, not only no one screamed, but also laughed and whispered. Some are bold, and they will throw a wink at him generously.

"Handsome guy, who are you looking for~"

"I'm looking for Mr. Edward."

"Oh~ what a pity, I thought you were here to invite our head Barbara to dinner."

"."

Walking all the way, Su Lun also responded with a very gentle smile to these beautiful girls.

He wanted to walk down the stage and wait for the magician, lest he disappear from his sight.

After walking over, I saw a small dressing room separated by a curtain next to the dressing room. The lead singer, Miss Barbara, was changing clothes and removing makeup inside.

The light was very bright, and in a large vanity mirror, the charming and moving face was reflected.

Su Lun saw the woman with the bewitching red lips in the mirror, and the woman also saw him.

"What, is the handsome guy lost?"

The voice was soft and soft, making people feel as if their bones were crisp.

Su Lun watched the woman turn back, her eyes were unconsciously drawn to her rosy red lips.

As if the red lips have endless magic, people can't take their eyes off.

This is a hint in the heart with spiritual means, which will make people inadvertently let go of their defenses.

Su Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, and guessed that this woman was probably a professional with the talent of [Succubus].

Afraid that this woman would also use some kind of hypnotism, he directly showed his police badge, "I want to wait for Mr. Edward, and I want to consult him about something."

Barbara looked at the police badge, her eyebrows curved, and her tone became more sticky, "Oh? It's a police officer. Do you have anything to do with Mr. Edward?"

Su Lun didn't feel malicious or careless, and said lightly, "Some official business."

Although Su Lun felt that this woman and the magician should know each other, he still wanted to wait to communicate with that Edward.

Hearing this, Barbara smiled charmingly, pointed to the chair beside her, and said, "Handsome officer, come and sit down? Mr. Edward probably has a while to finish the performance."

Su Lun glanced at her, not wanting to get too close to this kind of spiritual professional, and refused this very glamorous invitation, "I have official business. I won't sit."

Because she was changing clothes, Barbara was also wearing cool clothes. While speaking, his corner of the eye unconsciously swept across the deep career line on her chest.

In other words, do women with succubus talents have such capital?

Barbara covered her mouth and chuckled, capturing that look. But not only did she not mind, but she smiled and showed her proud figure without hesitation, and boldly teased, "Handsome officer, what are you looking at?"

"."

Su Lun's expression remained unchanged.

He felt that this was probably the occupational disease of the succubus.

And just after these few words, the stairs in the background suddenly rang.

A man in a tuxedo came down, it was the magician Edward.

The ambiguous atmosphere of someone was instantly diluted, and Barbara said to Edward: "Mr. Edward, the police officer said that he has something to look for you."

Edward heard "Officer", as if triggering a keyword, and then looked at Su Lun, who he was about to ignore.

Su Lun directly showed the police badge and said, "I'm Joey, the Patrolman in the Bell Tower Block, and I've been ordered to investigate something. Please cooperate with Mr. Edward."

Edward seemed to think of something, "The Clock Tower Block?"

When the other party responded, Su Lun immediately knew that he had guessed correctly: the two alchemists who were hiding in the crowd were coming for the old nun.

Edward looked at Su Lun for a moment, then continued to ask: "Excuse me, police officer, what are you here to investigate. And how do I need to cooperate with you?"

Su Lun didn't feel malicious, that is to say, the corpses in the four rooms should have nothing to do with the two in front of him.

Now, he is more sure how to use the plot.

He said directly: "Have you heard of [White Monastery]?"

Hearing this, Edward's expression froze, and he frowned: "Oh, of course, I remember it was a monastery on Bell Tower Street in the East City. But can Police Officer Johnny be more specific? Are you looking for me, does it have anything to do with this monastery?"

These people seem to be living people, but in fact they are still high-level NPCs who only respond to certain plots.

Su Lun needed to trigger the plot, so he said bluntly: "An old nun took a very dangerous thing from the monastery, which may contaminate others. And I found out that she came to this hotel according to the clues. But in the process , I found some other things, so I need Mr. Edward's cooperation."

It's all said and done, Edward didn't continue to pretend he didn't know, he smiled: "Officer Jonny, your investigative ability amazes me so much."

As he said that, he directly took out a badge with a golden Ouroboros and a "§" symbol from his pocket.

This move surprised Su Lun.

He originally wanted to ask Edward to assist in the investigation, and guided him to look at the corpses to see if he could have a conflict with the evil caster, and then find another chance.

But to take out the badge, that is, to show your identity?

Su Lun guessed something and waited silently for the other party to take the initiative to introduce.

Otherwise, Edward explained politely: "This incident is beyond the scope of the police station's handling. Therefore, it is now our special operations department to handle it. Just leave the matter here to us."

After a pause, he added with a smile: "Praise your dedication, Officer Jonny."

Is that so?

Hearing these remarks, Su Lun immediately understood.

This Edward and this Barbara are both the officials who handled the aberration incident in Dawn City!

After speaking, Edward looked like he was about to leave.

But

The reason why this hotel has become a cursed space means that they failed to prevent this incident a thousand years ago.

The pollution incident at midnight is the recurrence of the tragedy of that year.

If Su Lun left here, things would definitely go back to their original trajectory.

Although Su Lun had the alchemy items from the four corpses in his hand, he would most likely be able to save his life at midnight.

But he still needs space materials!

So I definitely won't let Edward leave like this.

Moreover, from the time Room 1021 was opened, it was doomed that this hunting group might be destroyed.

Now that there are official professionals from Dawn, maybe they can solve the problem on the first floor in advance?

At this moment, Su Lun's thoughts flew through his mind, and he quickly weighed the pros and cons of the certificate issue.

Will the plot change too much and cause some butterfly effect?

He didn't know what would happen in the end with such a change of the plot, but.

But carefully recalling the tone of Mr. Hei's speech last night, they knew enough about this cursed space.

It means that a big boss who is still hiding in the team is capable of handling various emergencies.

Thinking of this, Su Lun didn't hesitate any longer, and said directly: "Well, Mr. Edward, since you are handling this matter, I am also relieved. However, I have a piece of information here, I don't know if you know it."

Listen, Edward looked back at him, "Oh?"

Su Lun said: "I checked the check-in records before, and found that there was a guy named 'Tiger Garson' who was staying at the same time as Sister Elizabeth. He opened four rooms and put four strange corpses. [Faceless Man], [Hanged Corpse], [Drowning Female Corpse], [Big Head Resentful Baby]. It seems to be performing some kind of evil ritual again."

Upon hearing this, the faces of the two NPCs suddenly changed, obviously they knew what the four corpses meant.

Edward couldn't hide his shock: "[Four Strange Spirit Fallen Sacrifice Array]! Damn, she wants to open that 'sealed thing' in this hotel!"

When Su Lun heard it, sure enough, they didn't know the existence of the corpse.

Edward's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said to himself, "I hope I can stop it in time."

Su Lun looked at the word "contaminated" on their heads and felt the need to remind them, and then said, "Have you ever considered that you may have been contaminated?"

Hearing this, the two looked at each other with solemn eyes.

The charm on Barbara's face was completely removed, and she suddenly picked up the Warlock Seal, as if performing some spiritual technique.

After a few breaths, she glanced at Edward with an ugly face, and said in a heavy tone: "Someone's high-level law has blinded our perception, it should be the breath of the 'sealed thing' leaking. No surprises. What Officer Jonny said That's right, we, and even the entire restaurant, have been contaminated."

"."

Edward fell silent.

However, there was more determination on his face.

He looked at Su Lun and said, "Officer Jonny, this time is a big deal, you may need to do us a favor."

Su Lun cast a suspicious look, knowing that he might have changed the main storyline.

Edward resolutely said in a calm tone, "If we are really contaminated, please kill us first when you find signs of distortion in us."

Saying that, he looked at the place not far behind Su Lun, where the invisible living corpse was standing.

Sure enough, this space-capable person has long discovered the existence of invisible living corpses.

"This"

When Su Lun heard this request, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Okay!"

He didn't expect it, he racked his brains and didn't expect to change how to get materials, and the other party actually mentioned it.

In this situation tonight, all NPCs in the hotel are 100% distorted.

With their cooperation, I don't need to attack at all, and the difficulty of killing is instantly reduced by a hundred times.

but

This also means that I have to follow them at any time, otherwise how do I know when they are distorted?

At this time, Edward said again: "Officer Jonny, the information you provided is very important. I need to call my companions. Those four corpses must be destroyed first!"

Su Lun followed Edward out of the dressing room.

They were going to contact his teammates in the hotel room.

In order not to frighten the snakes, they made an appointment to deal with the bodies in the four rooms after five minutes.

Su Lun knew that touching those corpses would immediately alert the caster who set up the evil ritual.

War may break out early.

But it looks pretty good now, at least the ones in the hotel haven't been distorted.

Edward and the others will investigate this matter, and naturally they have certain strengths.

Su Lun didn't think the ending would be one-sided.

Out of the banquet hall, Su Lun originally planned to find a place to prepare for the battle.

Unexpectedly, it was blocked by someone.

Gallup, the leader of the "Sand Scorpions", led more than a dozen people in his group, and was already waiting in the corridor.
