Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 430 Curator

"Interesting puppet art."

Although he roughly guessed the origin of the puppet in front of him, Su Lun didn't understand how it was manipulated and used.

I didn't feel the silk thread, and there was no energy fluctuation. I thought that this [horror wax figure] was probably some kind of black magic like soul control.

"Lingzhi doesn't look too high, it should be directly controlling the soul."

Su Lun can perceive the fluctuations of the soul. Generally speaking, monsters such as evil spirits have incomplete spiritual bodies, and their intelligence is not very high. Probably like training dogs, training evil spirits for a long time can make them have some abilities before they are alive.

Before he could think about it, the man in the trench coat not far away suddenly started.

Su Lun has no sense of crisis, as long as he is not a seventh-order professional, there are not many people who can threaten him now.

With a slight glance from the corner of his eye, he watched as raindrops tens of meters around his body suddenly froze in mid-air. The surface of the crystal water droplets trembled with high-frequency ripples, and then turned into the shape of willow blades.

"The ability to control the water element is very strong, this technique is also quite interesting."

Su Lun narrowed his eyes and sighed in his heart.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"."

In the blink of an eye, those hovering raindrops hit Su Lun like bullets.

Covering all directions without dead ends, there is no way to avoid it in the alley, and there is a crackling sound of rain hitting bananas.

The raindrops cut through the clothes, and some special raindrops even penetrated the protective element barrier and hit Su Lun's body directly.

After hitting, the raindrops didn't completely disintegrate, but rather like blades slid across rocks. Even if there is no damage, the sharpness feels real.

This move is replaced by almost any other professional below the sixth rank, and it will be hard to die.

But Su Lun has the [Rune Golden Body] body protection, which is probably scraping.

"What a weird wax figure puppet!"

Su Lun slammed on the ground under his feet, facing the rain of arrows, and charged like a cannonball. He raised his hand and punched the man in the windbreaker's belly.

But this punch that can break rocks and crack gold focused on the target, but there was a feeling like hitting a water bag on the fist. The very strength was weakened by the shocking buffer force, and 90% disappeared.

"Body of Elements!"

After a short fight, Su Lun also judged the opponent's combat power, which is probably the level of a fifth-order professional. But with the addition of the talent of the four basic elements [A-004-Rain Prayer], it is almost impossible for anyone of the same rank to be able to defeat it.

Almost close to his face, Su Lun could also see the face of the man in the trench coat.

This is a terrifying face with several centipede-shaped stitches, jagged fangs, and the skin on the neck presents a strange dark blue color. The face is covered with heavy makeup and foundation, but it can't hide the black blood vessels and corpse spots, but it adds a bit of gloomy feeling. It also wears the plain white headgear of the bride's dress on its head, with black lips and eyeshadow, as identified, this is a [Ghost Bride].

And it was so close that Su Lun could see clearly that there was a thin layer of corpse wax on the surface of this guy's body.

His punch obviously didn't do much damage to the bride, and he used his strength to turn around and kick his legs, hitting her head heavily.

With this heavy leg, with a "crash" sound, the water polo was kicked out, and the foul-smelling black water splashed out.

Those black waters are obviously super corrosive and poisonous, sputtering on the ground making a rustling corrosive sound. After the curling green smoke passed, a small hole with pits appeared on the ground.

However, after the head was kicked out, the [Ghost Bride]'s breath did not weaken at all, and in a blink of an eye, a new head was condensed with elements. It stared at Su Lun in front of him with those dark eyes.

"Tsk tsk. It's very strong! I didn't expect a puppet to be able to achieve this level."

The more he tried, the more curious Su Lun became.

He is not only proficient in puppet art, but also makes living corpses.

And the [Ghost Bride] in front of me showed much stronger abilities than a living corpse, and was even similar to a real person.

That super element affinity is definitely not something that simple corpse control can do!

If you can get hold of the research.

This idea suddenly popped into Su Lun's mind.

Obviously, capture alive is impossible.

The wisdom of [Ghost Bride] is obviously not very high, it is probably Su Lun who thinks it can be killed. As soon as his head reconvened, he grabbed ahead with one hand, revealing the hand with long black nails.

In an instant, the technique was completed again.

The water element in the air formed a spherical water prison around Su Lun's body. No matter where he fled, the water prison seemed to be stuck to his body, and his ghosts lingered.

The surrounding water elements condensed more and more densely, and Su Lun felt that his body fell into a puddle of fast-drying glue, and it became more and more difficult to move.

And this technique not only restricted his movements, but also quickly pulled the water out of his body.

After a while, he was afraid that he would turn into a mummified corpse and die on the spot.

"Directive [Water Element Stripping]? It's a very strong comprehension of spells, at least it has incomplete comprehension of the sixth-order law. It should be the ability that the corpse had before it was alive. In other words, the corpse was at least a sixth-order professional before it died. , or even seventh-order?"

Su Lun analyzed in his heart, and finally felt a hint of death crisis, "The fluctuation of the soul is not very stable, so the resentment in its body should not be the original one."

I have to admit that this [Ghost Bride] is really strong, the elementalization ability makes it almost immune to any physical attack, the ability to manipulate basic elements is difficult to encounter restraint methods, and the original elemental understanding of the corpse has reached the sixth level.

It can be said that professionals below the sixth rank have almost no chance of winning against it!

After several fights, Su Lun had already tested some of the information he wanted. Thinking that the behind-the-scenes manipulator probably also noticed, he didn't delay any longer, and suddenly a layer of invisible air was wrapped around his fist.

The teleportation of this distance did not even need to hold the Warlock Seal, and he teleported and appeared behind the [Ghost Bride]. Without leaving the water, the domineering punch hit the monster's chest.

"Bang!"

A punch hole!

For the body of the elements, domineering could not be more useful.

Su Lun's punch did not break the stable form of the water element, but directly annihilated some elements from the microscopic level.

These days, he has been able to master some of the ways to use domineering. With this punch, Su Lun controlled the domineering spiral explosion, directly blasting the upper body of [Ghost Bride] into pieces.

Normally, this output is enough to kill the wax figure puppet.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a strange scene happened in front of him.

The heavy damage was heavy, and the target's breath dissipated for a while, but Su Lun didn't see the "grey fog" coming out.

"Not done?"

He looked at the black water all over the ground, wondering.

Sudden,

In the sewer mouth several meters away, he once again sensed the familiar soul fluctuations!

"Escape?"

Su Lun's eyes twitched slightly, but he didn't understand where he was.

If he escaped decisively, he wanted to chase, but he couldn't.

The [Ghost Bride] obviously found out that Su Lun has the ability to kill it, and his head is not iron, and after condensing again, he directly chose to run away. Its elementalization ability ignores terrain restrictions, and turns into black water and flows into the ground along the drainage pipes.

"Ha ha."

Su Lun laughed dryly at himself.

I thought it was a sure bet, but I didn't expect it to slip away.

But more doubts.

"It shouldn't be! How could it not be killed?"

Su Lun was skeptical, the punch just now was domineering, and no matter what, the [Ghost Bride] should not be allowed to live.

He quickly reviewed what had just happened in his mind, and said to himself, "No, it didn't come back to life on its own! It seemed that there was another mysterious external force condensing it just now?"

Thinking of some key points, his brain started to run fast.

Almost for a moment, he thought that he had seen this situation before.

When he was exploring the Cursed Space of the Dawn Ruins [1911 Hotel], he encountered four undead monsters.

The evil black magic that creates the weirdness is called the [Four Strange Spirit Fallen Sacrificial Array]. It is a corpse that collects the four characteristics of earth, wind, water, and fire, and finally achieves a repeated energy cycle, which complements each other and is immortal.

When a corpse is killed, it will be resurrected by the other three, which is almost a closed loop with no solution.

No wonder it's used for delivery, this kind of puppet can't be caught, can't die, it's really suitable.

"Could it be that the manipulator behind the scenes has already collected the four-element wax figure?"

Su Lun frowned, and felt that the tricky level went up several steps in an instant, "Immortal, this puppet is really powerful."

Fortunately, he only encountered one today. If he had four as he thought, he would probably have to run away.

But on the other hand, the master who can control this kind of wax statue is definitely not an unknown person in Lingdun.

It is also a professional related to puppet art, and the suspect target has narrowed again.

Originally, I wanted to track the source of the medicine, but now that the delivery person has run away, it is pointless for Su Lun to delay any longer.

And if the person behind the scene is found to be being followed, it may also issue a warning to the Vaughan Brotherhood.

Goods of unknown origin, even gangsters, cannot be scattered. At least the president "Old Smoking Gun" Fuglas must know some information about the supplier of this batch of goods.

Su Lun didn't want the last clue to slip away.

He sensed Reina's position, his hands quickly changed the Warlock Seal, and after condensing the dark energy needed for directional displacement, the space fluctuated.

Looking at it again, he has already appeared in the dilapidated small building and stared at it.

Leina was crawling on the roof with a sniper rifle, staring at the warehouse with a scope, and suddenly saw Su Lun appear beside her, her eyes lit up: "Mr. Su Lun, are you back?"

She said, and pointed to several gang members at the door of the warehouse not far away, and said quickly, "Just now they seem to have received some information, and someone rushed in."

Su Lun listened to Reina's report, and guessed that his interception was exposed. He nodded and said decisively, "Be careful, I'll go."

Thinking about it, he added, "If anyone runs out, kill them, and try not to leave alive."

Reina nodded seriously, "Yeah."

Su Lun didn't hesitate, teleported again, and the person appeared directly at the door of the warehouse.

The few brawny men with tattoos in suits looked at one more person suddenly, and before the startled expressions on their faces turned into alertness, a blood line appeared on their necks.

The "Hu La" human body fountain appeared, and the few blood-stained crystal threads appeared.

During the whole process, Su Lun didn't even look at these guys, and went straight into the warehouse.

Eighty percent of the gangsters behind the scenes are already on their way, and now it's too late to chat with these guys slowly about strange information. Killing and stripping soul fragments is the most efficient.

He teleported again, and he had already appeared in the warehouse.

There was one more person in the warehouse, and more than 20 heavily armed strong men looked over with fierce eyes, and dozens of guns pointed at them.

Leading the bearded man with the three-barrel magic musket was "Old Smoking Gun" Fugres.

Su Lun's eyes were full of indifference, and he didn't explain a word at all. With a pinch of the Warlock Yin, a fierce light shot out in his eyes: "Hormonal runaway · Four solutions!"

With one more finger, the gargoyle and several puppets appeared out of thin air in the warehouse.

Immediately, a fierce battle broke out.

thump, thump, thump, thump

The sound of gunfire in the closed warehouse was as deafening as muffled thunder.

Su Lun stared at "Old Smoking Gun" Fuglas and gave him a beating.

After all, it is a fourth-order professional, this guy still needs a little effort.

Other minions have hands-on, and some see that the enemy is too strong and see that the situation is not good. But just as the guys who wanted to escape were about to climb out of the window, a few sniper bullets accurately blew the guy's head and exploded into a rotten watermelon.

The battle broke out fiercely and ended very quickly.

In less than two minutes, Su Lun killed everyone in the warehouse.

After stripping off Fugres' soul, he found the information on the supplier.

Su Lun did not delay, packed up the spoils, and went straight out of the warehouse door.

As soon as I came out, I happened to see Reina on the rooftop driving a sniper shot at a child. Those gang members who heard the movement and wanted to come for reinforcements were pinned down there before they got close to the street corner.

Su Lun made a retreat gesture towards the figure on the rooftop, and Reina responded with a bright smile.

She put away her sniper rifle, was as agile as a cat, and silently jumped into the alley.

Su Lun retracted his eyes and threw an incendiary bomb behind him to destroy the corpse.

"Boom" exploded, and the entire warehouse ignited a raging fire.

The forensic doctors in this alchemy world are very powerful and can make corpses "open". They can judge the character and methods of the murderer from the traces on the corpse, and they can even directly describe the facial features of a person. If one does not work, then there are many, which can always be pieced together.

Su Lun had seen what happened just now, but he didn't dare to be careless.

Right now, there is not a single live port in the warehouse, which is just right.

After handling the scene, his void warlock Yin Yining.

Looking at it again, he had already appeared beside Reina in the alley a few hundred meters away.

The two looked at each other with a relaxed smile, changed back to their previous attire, and walked onto the street without any difference.

The warehouse suddenly pierced the sound of fighting, and the entire block was alarmed.

No one figured out what was going on, and presumably thought it was a gang fight. Members of various gangs appeared on the street with guys, viciously alert, and did not know who the enemy was.

Those who eat melons in the night market also heard the news and flooded the streets, like ants out of their nests, all over the street.

Su Lun also took the opportunity to blend in with the melon-eating crowd with his arms around Reina's slender waist, without being noticed.

I don't know who shot in the crowd, and all of a sudden there was a "crackling" on the street.

The crowd dispersed as birds and beasts, and did not dare to watch the excitement, and the locomotives on the streets and alleys roared in an instant.

Su Lun and Lena went to the Rolling Stones Bar garage to pick up their motorcycles and followed the crowd off Fox Boulevard.

Unlike when she came, Reina in the back seat hugged Su Lun intimately, with a happy smile on her pretty face.

The wind was blowing, and just after driving out of the block, Su Lun suggested, "Are you going to have a late night snack?"

After dancing all night, Reina was also a little hungry, so she happily replied, "Okay."

The normal restaurants are closed at this point, but a few high-end restaurants of Rich Lady Leina can be opened specially, but Su Lun has no intention of bothering the chefs to work overtime in the middle of the night.

Not long after, the steam motorcycle stopped in the Mann neighborhood.

This is a civilian neighborhood. There are a large number of manufacturing factories nearby, and many workers will come out to find food at night. Over time, a very lively night market has formed here.

Su Lun parked his motorcycle on the street and found a small stall called "Beef Pie & Mashed Potatoes", which also sold the food on the sign.

This is a shop that strips away the memories of the gang just now, and it tastes very good.

The workers at this point hadn't rested yet, and the business was deserted, so the two of them found Zhang Zaozi and sat there.

The food is delicious, affordable and the portions are good.

Su Lun thinks it's good, anyway, in his eyes, it's the difference between protein and carbohydrates.

It doesn't matter if it is fine or not, and the environment is not bad.

In the dark alley, mice were squeaking for food, and the steam pipes that were broken in the walls were emitting white smoke.

Reina, a wealthy lady, didn't mind the environment at all. She could sit elegantly in a high-end restaurant and taste wine, and she could also eat with relish at a roadside stall.

Eating and eating, they chatted about the previous battle.

Su Lun stripped away the memory of the "Old Smoking Gun" Fuglas, and sure enough, he knew the origin of the supplier of this batch of goods.

It was a guy nicknamed "The Curator" in the underworld.

This guy is well-known in the Lington gang circle, and it is said that he is also a big man with real power in reality. But in reality, it is very mysterious, and no one has seen him really. He became acquainted with the Vaughan Brotherhood because of some illegal human trafficking dealings. That guy also often buys some black magic materials or ancient books through the gang.

Su Lun had played against the [Horror Wax Figure Ghost Bride] before, and the conditions were all matched. It was almost certain that this "curator" himself was behind the scenes.

However, compared to this news, Su Lun felt that something else was worse.

From the information he had previously stripped from the members of the Vaughan Brotherhood, in addition to knowing that the person behind the supply might be the "curator", he also got a piece of information that made him feel very problematic.

That is, in the bottom of Lington, a disease called "Red Death" is prevalent.

Diseases and plagues have never been new to human beings. From the time of mythology to the present, there have been infectious diseases that cannot be dealt with.

There were countless deaths like the plague, the Black Death, and smallpox.

But this time is different.

The reason Su Lun noticed it was because... the way the disease is spread is actually bodily fluids.

This is very similar to the accident on the cruise ship "Queen Rodrika"!

What's more, the strange thing is that this disease cannot be cured in other ways, but the [refreshing potion] refined with that kind of blood refining crystal can suppress the symptoms, or even completely eliminate the symptoms.

A conspiracy immediately popped into Su Lun's mind.

Knowing that there is a problem with this medicine, there is a disease that can only be solved with this medicine, which is impossible without a connection.

Su Lun only thought that the drug was spread through addicts, and that it would only affect a small area.

But if, as he thought, there was a link to disease transmission, it would be tricky.

Very tricky!

If there is no problem with the detection of the drug, it may eventually be used by those who do not know the truth to treat the disease.

That transmission chain is horrible

I recommend a very good book, which is also a great boutique and bizarre style "Bright! 》
