Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 184 The Secret of the Underground City (Subscribe)

Chijo is taking a bath.

Su Lun had nothing to do on the bed, so he simply took out the alchemy tome and read it.

Now he spends almost all his free time on knowledge digestion.

This is also a habit he developed before he crossed over. Reading can make him emotionally stable.

After a while, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped abruptly.

Qianjo walked out in a loose bathrobe, which was naturally a vacuum. Looking up, she could see a deep V with white flowers on her chest. It has to be said that the pros of the melee system are indeed attractive.

"Whoo~"

She walked to the full-length mirror and let out a long exhale of pleasure, "Finally comfortable."

A smooth blue hair is not bound, and it does not look so suffocating.

Qiantiao tore the towel from the hanger, tilted his head and wiped his wet hair. As soon as the hand was lifted, both the wide cuffs and the neckline were opened, revealing a lot of spring.

However, the two people in the room were very calm.

Su Lun looked at his book, just glanced at it, and then closed his eyes.

There was the sound of water in the shower just now, the two of them didn't elaborate, and now it's empty, Chijo continued the previous topic, "Kid Su Lun, I heard that you have a kind of immunity to [Hypnos' Black Scythe of Night]. Puppet? Mr. Hei's plan is to take your puppet with you."

"Well, that's a kind of living corpse."

This information is on the wanted list, and there is nothing that cannot be borrowed.

And Su Lun has used abomination so many times, a polymath like Mr. Hei, 80% probably guessed the origin of this living corpse long ago.

After speaking, he thought of something, and said: "But the corpse is a little troublesome to control. If it is not a puppet master, it will be difficult. Moreover, it takes a lot of practice to accurately control the slash of the sickle."

Although Su Lun felt that Mr. Hei and the others were very strong, they might not be able to use an unfamiliar forbidden item immediately.

Even if it is to lend them a living corpse.

Hearing this, Chijo glanced in the mirror.

She happened to meet Su Lun's gaze and said, "Mr. Hei said, you should be interested in going to see it. So... Actually, I'm here to borrow someone from you."

"lend me???"

As soon as Su Lun heard it, a voice in his heart responded for him.

No, I'm not interested!

Although I don't know why Mr. Hei and the others wanted to kill the little princess of the duke's mansion, the battle must be extremely dangerous. Even the leaders of the Umbrella Organization secretly came to the front to stand up, but there must be a lot of top experts around the little princess.

Moreover, the black tower is a very special place.

The top chaebols in the inner city, no matter how strong they are, also have an upper limit.

But Su Lun now knows that the Black Tower is the passage to the upper world, and he knows that the duke's mansion is deep, which is definitely not what he can imagine.

Otherwise, with the strength of Mr. Hei's group, what big family in the inner city can't be pushed without thinking?

There is still a treasure hidden now, must be afraid of the black tower.

This battle must be a fierce battle between top professionals.

Su Lun is self-aware.

He is a little shrimp who is just entering the second rank. Although he has a little means, he is not able to wave in that kind of situation.

The battle of the top professionals, even the aftermath, is enough for him to drink a pot.

You can borrow a sickle

borrow

Wait, what did Mr. Black say?

Su Lun thought of something in an instant, and did not express his position in a hurry,

He looked at Qiantiao and wondered, "What did Mr. Hei say?"

"Well. Although I also don't think you want to go. But Mr. Hei said that he told you about our plan, and you should be interested."

Chijo glanced at him.

After a pause, she said something that would surprise anyone who listened to it, "After all, this time we are going to kill a real super powerhouse. According to ancient sayings, that person should be five Rank professional!"

"Tier five?!"

When Su Lun heard it, she was stunned for a moment, and then she realized what she was expressing.

This really surprised him.

Now the strongest known masters in Old Lingdon are Tier 3, such as the bosses of the three major gangsters in the outer city, the presidents and vice presidents of the major trade unions, and the top masters in the inner city. They are all Tier 3s.

This suddenly appeared out of the "fifth order", what is the situation?

According to the ancient books unearthed in the ruins, the ancient alchemists certainly did not stop at the third level.

After all, the owner of this dawn ruin, Sir Isaac a thousand years ago, was known as a "demi-god".

After digesting the amazing information in the thousand words, Su Lun was surprised for a moment, but the first instinct in his heart was: How many alchemy fragments can a fifth-order professional harvest?

Hearing this, he immediately became interested!

The soul fragments of super-level masters are not only the amount of knowledge, but the level of comprehension at the level of laws.

It also means vision!

"One-dimensional equation" is already difficult for elementary school students, but for middle and high school students, is it not an introductory question?

This rule also applies in the field of alchemy.

Without crossing certain rank thresholds, many super-order knowledge cannot be comprehended.

Once you get over it, it's a breeze!

Su Lun is feeling this deeply now.

When he was a first-order, it was very difficult to learn the second-order rune knowledge by leaps and bounds, it was difficult to understand, and it was difficult to understand. But now after advanced level, many of the previous difficult knowledge can be understood at a glance, and the learning difficulty has been reduced by at least several times!

It is conceivable that if the soul of a fifth-order professional is stripped away, what will happen to Su Lun's learning progress if he really wants to comprehend the knowledge related to the law?

Not to mention whether the knowledge fragments of the finished product can be harvested, Su Lun feels that it is just to gain "vision". If he needs to understand and learn other second-order and third-order alchemy knowledge, wouldn't he just take a look at it?

Ultra-Order knowledge has been monopolized by the Black Tower. It is impossible to harvest how many Tier 3 professionals are harvested!

If it was a group of Tier 3 enemies, he really didn't want to go.

After all, it's strange that the little princess doesn't have ten or eight third-orders around her.

At that time, Mr. Hei can't care about them. If he really wants to face the last one, Su Lun is not sure that he will survive from the third-order professional.

But now that I hear it,

turn out to be,

They didn't kill the little princess, but a fifth-order guard?

"Mr. Hei, how strong are they?"

Su Lun heard Chijo reveal their plan, and instantly felt that he still underestimated the strength of the "Mirror Organization".

But with emotion, he does have a very strong interest in this plan!

Mr. Hei, if they dare to do it, they must have the grasp of moving hands!

"Looks like you've decided to go."

Chijo caught the change in Su Lun's expression and said lightly.

Su Lun nodded: "Yeah."

"You decide."

Hearing this, Qiantiao didn't say much.

At this moment, she had wiped her hair, looked at Su Lun with big characters lying across the bed, and grumbled, "Ehhh, Su Lun kid, move over there, okay? Just spread the bed like this, can you? Leave me a spot?"

Su Lun's original thoughts were already flying, and he was thinking about the harvest after peeling off the fragments of the fifth-order powerhouse.

Hearing this, he then glanced at Qianjo, who was disheveled.

This big guy looks like he really intends to squeeze in with himself.

The gambling-addicted young woman didn't mind, and naturally he didn't mind either.

"Oh."

Su Lun responded, moved his butt, and left half of the bed to come out. Then, as soon as I left, I suddenly felt a piercing sword qi pass by.

The sound of "shuh" was very light, like the sound of a sharp knife slashing.

On another look, a large bed is split in two from the middle.

Because the knife was too fast, even the sheets and quilt on the bed were not deformed.

"."

Su Lun looked at it, a hint of helplessness appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Just now he saw Qiantiao draw his sword clearly, but he didn't dodge it. Obviously, the big guy was frightening himself, probably in revenge for the joke he made while bathing.

Fortunately, this mattress is supported by countless springs alone, and it does not collapse when cut in half.

"Okay, go to sleep."

Seeing that Su Lun was not frightened, Chijo pursed her lips and felt bored.

She didn't consider herself an outsider at all, and lay happily on the other half of the bed.

Erlang's legs turned up, and Bai Huahua's thighs also leaked out.

Since he was going to participate in the war, Su Lun naturally had to ask more about the situation.

He turned his head to look at the other half of the bed and asked, "Sister Qianjo, when are we going to leave?"

"I don't know, wait for the notice."

Qiantiao didn't open his eyes, and responded lazily: "It is planned that Mr. Hei and the others will do it, and I am only responsible for the battle."

She doesn't seem to care about the details of the plan at all, professional people do professional things, and conspiracies are left to a wise man like Mr. Hei.

The two lived in the same room, and the atmosphere was not awkward.

Thinking that they were going to besiege the fifth-order professionals, Su Lun did have a lot of curiosity in his heart, such as their strength.

Chijo didn't consider herself an outsider, and Su Lun naturally didn't see herself as an outsider either. He asked directly: "Sister Qiantiao, what rank are you in?"

After pondering for a moment, Qiantiao then slowly spit out three words, "It's hard to say."

Su Lun: "Can't tell?"

Qianjo suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the ceiling for a while, and didn't hide her meaning from Su Lun, "I broke through the third rank half a year ago. But because of the second awakening of talent and some special inheritance, the combat power is stronger than the average three. The rank is a lot stronger. If I really want to say it, I can barely count it as the fourth rank."

"Oh."

Listen, Su Lun's expression is slightly different.

These words tonight really made him refresh a lot of his understanding of the world.

Su Lun was still thinking about the concept of Tier 4, and at this time, Qianjo took the initiative and said, "Aren't you curious, why do we want to kill that Tier 5 guard commander?"

Su Lun originally thought that this might involve some kind of secret, so it was not easy to find out.

But now she took the initiative to mention it and asked, "Why?"

Qianjo said: "Advanced fourth-order professionals need a special thing - [Sun God Stone]. The underground world without sunlight will not produce that kind of special energy crystals. And those super-level professionals who come from outside the tower It may be carried on the body, and their corpses can also be assembled. If we want to break through the blockade of the Black Tower, we must have enough strength. Now, it is still far away.”

The tone is calm.

But Su Lun could hear a hint of heaviness.

He didn't know if it was because he planned to join the war, but he felt that Qianjo's attitude towards him was obviously different.

Allies, maybe?

The giggling before was over, but now she chose to reveal to Su Lun some of the best secrets that only a few people knew.

She asked again, "Want to hear some troublesome secrets?"

Su Lun listened to her serious tone, thought for a moment, and then replied, "Yes."

Qianjo looked at the ceiling, her eyes wandering a bit, and she started talking directly.

"When you left Old Lington before, didn't I tell you to make you stronger?"

"Well, remember."

"Actually, I just don't want you to endure that kind of pressure too early, just like when I first came into contact with the truth, I was really desperate."

"."

"When you find that the world you live in is a big prison, everything you pursue is meaningless. The black tower has a desperate dominance, so no matter how hard you try, you can only be in a dark dungeon forever. Zhong Gou is alive. What's the point of life then? Until I met 'Mirror'."

Having said this, the young gambling addict turned around suddenly.

She supported her head with her hands, looked at Su Lun and smiled: "You are doing well, I have been hearing about you, and I know that you are always getting stronger."

"."

Su Lun listened quietly.

He had never seen Chijo so serious before.

Although she smiled.

Chijo continued to speak.

"Do you know how Old Lington got here?"

She asked herself.

"About a hundred years ago, someone found the Black Tower through an ancient map. That person was Raphael I. That is, the grandfather of the current Archduke Raphael. At that time, the old Lington was a ruin without any Humans. Then, they filled a large number of war slaves and prisoners from the outside world. The slaves were cleared of the memory of the outside world, and then they began to reclaim and multiply in the underground world, and there was a new order. "

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether the chaebols in the inner city or the commoners in the outer city are essentially the same. In the final analysis, everyone is the 'miners' under the Archduke Raphael, who have been mining this thousand-year-old ancient ruins on behalf of the Duke's Palace for generations. Just baby."

"Those inner city chaebols think the wealth is in their hands? Haha, it's just meat stewed in a pot."

"."

This news is indeed very heavy to hear.

But Su Lun is a transmigrator, and it is not difficult to accept.

Since he learned from the nineteenth that the predecessor was sent from outside the black tower, he had guessed that there was a ground world.

Hearing this, he asked: "Can't you reveal the truth of this matter?"

There are so many people in Old Lington, who really want a revolutionary uprising, which is also a terrifying force.

Hearing this, Chijo shook his head.

"Fifty years ago, there was an uprising. At that time, the rebel army invaded the black tower. Then, despair began. Without warning, a group of super-level masters came down from the upper level and killed them without any effort. The leading professionals. The rebel army was powerless to resist and was quickly cleared. In the end, the turmoil massacred hundreds of thousands of people. All those involved in the uprising were slaughtered for the crime of 'rebellion'."

Actually tried it.

When Su Lun heard this, he could already think of the scene at that time.

A group of players in the 20s and 30s rushed to the tower, and then a bunch of bosses in the 50s and 60s appeared in the tower.

Swish swish the knife and drop it, and the group is destroyed directly.

This matter seemed to touch on some unpleasant past events of Qiantiao, she frowned slightly, and added: "Maybe some old people in the old Lingdun city still remember this matter, but no one dares to mention it again. The people who were organized by the umbrella organization knew just a few words on this topic, and it was immediately in danger of genocide."

"I really let everyone in Old Lingdu know the truth. The only consequence is that the Black Tower will send top powerhouses to clean up the entire 'prison'. And then send a group of people over. For them, the miners' lives are worthless at all."

"So, you know why we did that?"

After listening to Qianjo's story, Su Lun also showed deep thought.

This is really disappointing for ordinary people.

What is needed to advance to the fourth step [Sun God Stone], which can only be produced by the ground, which means that the people in the burrow can only reach the third step.

There are fifth orders outside, and there may be sixth, seventh, and eighth orders.

Su Lun has no concept of a professional at that level.

Thinking, maybe it's the difference between ants and elephants?

There are so many ants that they might be able to kill an elephant.

But in the world above the black tower, there are countless elephants and maybe dinosaurs?

It is no wonder that Mr. Hei and the others are going to intercept the fifth-order commander this time.

The lessons of the uprising fifty years ago had already taught them that the number of people was useless, and the top powerhouse was the key to deciding the outcome.

If Qianjo and the others can advance to the fourth rank, they may have a chance to break through the shackles.
