Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 476 Steam Castle

The heat of the prince and princess wedding gradually dissipated, and the sunny days that Lingdun had lasted for several days were gone.

In the early morning, the fog filled the entire Lington City again.

At the entrance of the Rose Manor, the mist is filled with mist, and a unique steam locomotive is parked on the side of the road. The servants were carrying bulky luggage into the car, looking like they were going on a long journey.

After a while, Ekaterina came out of the manor wearing a long black dress and took Su Lun's arm, and the two got into the carriage intimately.

In the distance, a reporter waiting on a street corner took a picture of the two getting into the car.

The plan of the honeymoon trip is to travel south by road, and take a car to explore the scenery along the southern coastline of Luying, and finally arrive at the kingdom of Rhaegardi in the south.

Prince Fick and Princess Catherine are going to inspect their territory.

Lu Ying does not restrict the transformation of locomotives. Almost all noble families have their own mechanics, so there will be many strange locomotives with unique styles. This is a remodeled steam kinetic energy travel car. The interior and appearance were designed by Ekaterina herself, and it took a very poetic name - [The Windmill Castle of Xiangri].

Said to be a car, it is more like a moving magical mechanical castle.

In addition to the wheels and tracks, there are several oddly shaped robotic arms. This allows it to cope with all kinds of road conditions, and even where there is no road, it can also take the owner to see the beautiful scenery that is off the beaten track.

Its interior is spacious like a train carriage, and it is spacious for seven or eight people. The decoration in the carriage is as magnificent as ever, and all kinds of utensils are extremely luxurious. There are also many magical devices that make this moving castle a more comfortable living experience.

The two maids were preparing refreshments. Su Lun and Ekaterina sat opposite each other at the small table by the glass window, each leisurely reading a book.

It is said that they are traveling, but the state of the two is no different from that in the study of the mansion.

However, the "books" in their hands are very special.

Ekaterina's slender hands were wrapped in a layer of fluorescent energy. What she was holding in her hand was a novel with a cursed characteristic that overflowed with chilling air. This was naturally the [Land of Yellow Springs].

After opening it two days ago, she found some extraordinary insights that were highly compatible with her profession, so she has been reading for the past few days.

In the hands of Su Lun, there is a dark and simple classic book, which is the [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript] collected by the Rhaegardi family.

For some reason, he only got this notebook last night.

Mr. Mirror had said before that her father had an idea to use a giant dragon to refine a breeding outfit, which might be recorded in a manuscript.

Su Lun didn't even think about it, it happened to be the book that Rhaegardi collected.

After flipping through it for a while, I finally found the last page.

He rubbed his brows, closed the book, and sighed in his heart, "The requirements for the materials for this [Isaac's Dragon-patterned Golden Body] are really outrageous. It actually requires a whole dragon to be sacrificed."

Just now, he had roughly read the contents of the note, and in addition to being amazed, he was also a little surprised.

Sir Isaac's idea of ​​​​designing this costume is indeed extraordinary, even bizarre.

The alchemist demigod wrote this passage in his notebook: "Dragon is the only magical creature in the lower planes with complete bloodline of higher races. This is the most perfect curse material I have ever seen. They have incredible perfection. Dual resistance to things and demons. After research, I found that the resistance is derived from a natural dragon rune language, which I call [Sacred Dragon Rune]. This is a kind of almost "primitive rune", which contains the origin of the law. The perfect rune of power. And according to myths and legends, the dragon pattern on the lower plane can grow into a god-level dragon pattern, which means that the basic rune language combination for constructing the dragon pattern is "perfect""

Su Lun also knew that the rune system in the field of alchemy also had different qualities. D, C, B, A represented the perfection of the rune.

And Sir Isaac's assessment is that Dragon Mark is a perfect assessment for SSS+.

Sir Isaac's idea is to refine the "dragon pattern" into a breeding outfit and bless it to the alchemist, so that humans can also have the powerful body of a dragon like Wudi to some extent.

Su Lun can be considered to understand roughly.

The dragon's runic flesh.

This is likely to be the origin of the "rune warlock lineage" among alchemists.

Even before he studied Pandora's body, those super-level runes that he couldn't understand were most likely dragon patterns.

However, not to mention how difficult the refining is, and how harsh the fusion conditions are.

Just seeing that the main ingredient is a giant dragon (the higher the rank, the better), Su Lun felt very painful.

If it is some scraps of the dragon family, it may be found in some ancient ruins and cursed spaces.

But this whole thing is simply impossible.

It is no wonder that the Rhaegardi family has kept this manuscript for many years, but it has not been of great use, because no one can find the main material.

The knowledge level recorded in this alchemy manuscript is profound and high-end. After Su Lun read it roughly, too much information poured into his mind, and he wasted a lot of energy.

His soft eyebrows were seen by Martina who was preparing refreshments.

She came over with a wink, leaned behind the chair, and used a professional massage technique to help Su Lun relieve her fatigue.

Su Lun's head rested on a soft touch, and his temples immediately felt the coolness of his fingertips, and smiled slightly, "Thank you."

After getting along for a few days, several maids have become very familiar with Su Lun, and they seem to regard him as a male master and serve him very intimately.

This made Su Lun somewhat used to such caring service.

Martina said with a smile: "Sir, you are too polite."

The suspension of the station wagon is very subtly modified, and the bumps are very light.

The atmosphere in the carriage is very warm, the tea is boiling with "woo woo", and a fragrance permeates the carriage.

Su Lun looked at the fast-paced scene outside the car window and saw that they were driving along the north bank of the Rocco Valen, where they would leave Lington and head south.

After watching the street scene for a while, I retracted my gaze, and happened to see Yekaterina who was reading at the opposite side.

His eyes stayed for a moment.

After getting along for a few days, the two were quite familiar with each other.

I also have to admit that Ekaterina is really excellent, and has unparalleled efforts.

Su Lun himself struggled from the bottom, and if he didn't work hard to become stronger, he would probably die.

But Ekaterina is different.

She has a family that has lived without food and clothing for several lifetimes, and this effort is very rare.

After living together for a few days, Su Lun realized how busy she was every day. Secret reports from the MI, various government feedback from the Lance family. All kinds of data to be processed are piled up.

She also had to spend time on self-improvement, occasionally flipping through some poetry collections.

She is in a serious, focused and efficient state almost all the time.

It seems like every minute is being planned.

When Yekaterina was dealing with this information, she never shied away from Su Lun.

Although he really is not interested.

But after seeing those far-sighted plans, Su Lun gradually realized that under the gentle and beautiful appearance of this noble lady, there is a "big ambition" with great ambitions.

The more you know, the more admirable you are.

The feeling she had once felt was unfamiliar to people.

But now, Su Lun gradually understands that under her deep and indifferent temperament, she is burdened with too many ideals.

In her ideals, there are light poems and distant places, as well as the heavy rise and fall of civilization.

Katyusha is her, but she is not just Katyusha.

It was probably her eyes that stayed for a while, and Yekaterina on the opposite side noticed it, looked up at him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Saying that, her eyes fell back on the lines of the novel.

"It's all right."

Su Lun narrowed his eyes, fell for a moment, saw what she thought of when her fragrant shoulders were exposed, and asked curiously, "I just suddenly thought, why did you bite me last time in the Emerald Forest?"

The two get along day and night, and there is no topic to avoid, so they blurted out when they thought of it.

When Yekaterina heard this, she didn't raise her eyes, but the corners of her mouth raised a slightly indifferent arc, and said, "You forget it. When you think about it, you will know that you deserve to be bitten."

"."

Su Lun listened helplessly and didn't ask any further questions.

He just always felt that the memory of that fragment seemed to be very important.

At this moment, the maid Leona, who had been guarding the communicator, suddenly came over, apparently with something to report.

Ekaterina raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Leona immediately said: "Miss, MI2 has confirmed the whereabouts of William Regardi just now, he has left the city ahead of schedule, and someone just saw him in Yorkshire. The staff deduced that he should be in Wharton. Ambush us near the city."

Yekaterina was not surprised at all, and said lightly, "Oh."

After thinking for a while, she looked at Su Lun and asked, "At this speed, we should arrive at Wharton City tonight. Are you ready to start?"

Su Lun listened and nodded, "Yeah. It's almost as expected, so it went according to plan."

When Ekaterina heard Su Lun's words, she obviously understood, and she greeted Leona and said, "Notify the gang in Lingdun, and now disperse the special potion of the Red Death. Before tonight, be sure to disperse the potion!"

Leona: "Yes, miss."

Su Lun listened silently, but knew exactly why the powder was related to the assassination.

The whereabouts of that young master William are almost all under the control of the Military Intelligence Department. Whether it is to defend or kill, it is actually not difficult.

But obviously, there are other, deeper plans in the two people's plans now.

After Su Lun obtained the information about the "undead monk" Las Lisboa, he carefully analyzed the cause and effect, and found that this assassination was not as simple as buying a murder on the surface.

He deduced a highly logical hypothesis from the relevant clues and the intelligence at his disposal.

That is, the demon monk may be a crucial figure in the collusion between the "Giant Priory" and the Bona Royal Family!

In this way, the operation of this assassination is more subtle.

Su Lun and Ekaterina both have good strategies, and once they add up, they decide to make a big vote!

But what this plan can say is only William's part.

In addition, it's hard to say.

Because of the taboo, the directional plan will also be sensed by some gods.

Only by tacit communication.

The only certainty is that once the potion of the Red Death appears in Lingdun, it will be the beginning of the great battle.

Su Lun listened to the information and thought of something else in his mind.

If it is as he expected, once William's assassination begins, it will inevitably be followed by an earth-shattering battle that is extremely dangerous.

Even Su Lun himself could not guarantee absolute safety.

His pupils were distracted, thinking about various details, and then focusing again, his eyes fell on Ekaterina's fair and delicate shoulders and necks unconsciously. She is wearing a casual low-cut princess dress today. From this angle, you can see a white and deep career line.

Ekaterina obviously noticed her gaze too, and rolled her eyes at him, but ignored it.

Su Lun obviously didn't want that beautiful scenery, but thought of something.

At this time, he took out a very delicate rose gold inlaid sapphire necklace, placed it on the table, and was about to say, "This."

When Ekaterina saw the necklace, she seemed to be suddenly interested, but she was also slightly surprised and asked directly, "Give it to me?"

"Um."

Su Lun nodded and explained again solemnly: "This chain has directional space coordinates drawn on it. Carry it with me. If I encounter any situation, I can perceive the coordinates and maybe be able to take care of each other."

At the end, he added: "Of course, if you think it is necessary."

Hearing this explanation, Ekaterina raised her eyebrows slightly, with a smile that was not a smile, "Oh?"

After a pause, she didn't know what to think, and said to herself in a slightly weird tone: "I have received many gifts since I was a child. But this is the first time I have received such a gift."

She was sighing in her heart, it was so casual.

Although she didn't care, it was the first time she encountered someone who would give her a gift like this.

This is also the jewelry brought from the sea market. It is very precious and sells very well.

But it's so rudimentary,

It doesn't even have a full gift box.

The attitude of the person who sent it was random.

It's like. Handed a gun: Hey, take it for self-defense.

The mind is full,

But there is really no expectation of receiving a romantic gift like a necklace.

Su Lun saw that Ekaterina didn't mean to reach for the necklace at all, and a doubt appeared in her heart: Did she mean that?

Oh, with her strength, she really doesn't need it.

The atmosphere just felt a little embarrassing, but didn't want to suddenly reverse.

However, Yekaterina reached out and stroked the necklace on the table, as if she liked it, and said with admiration, "It's a very beautiful necklace."

"???"

Su Lun just wondered why she suddenly changed her attitude.

Seeing that Ekaterina looked at herself again, she smiled and said, "Can I ask Mr. Su Lun to help me put it on?"

Su Lun was slightly taken aback.

It was accepted.

But why do you want me to help wear it, it's not Jessica's job?

Hearing the conversation between the two, the maids on the side covered their mouths and chuckled, with no intention of coming up to help.

"certainly."

Su Lun didn't think much, stood up, took the necklace and walked behind Ekaterina across the table. Then he helped her put the necklace on her slender neck.

At this time, the maid also brought a mirror.

Ekaterina admired herself and the necklace in the mirror, then glanced at Su Lun behind her, her eyebrows curved, "It's really pretty."

The Steam Moving Castle drove away from Lingdun all the way. After leaving the city, the smell of soot in the air gradually disappeared.

Going to the outer suburbs, you can already see the blue sky.

Although the road conditions are not very good, it does not affect the passage of the Steam Castle.

Lu Ying's degree of industrialization is very low. After leaving Lingdun, he saw almost all the primitive farming conditions.

Castle villages, country lanes, blue sky and white clouds, birds chirping and flowers fragrant, the deer yoyo has a good scenery all the way.

Occasionally passing through the village, curious children will point their fingers, knowing that this is a big noble from Lingdun.

After driving to the outskirts, the moving castle also opened the mechanical roof, and the top became a transparent glass room. The people in the car can blow the fresh wind in the car and enjoy the scenery along the way.

Suri is also the first time to appreciate such a sloppy scenery.

He and Ekaterina were really like a newlywed couple on their honeymoon, stopping and going all the way.

On the hillside with blooming flowers, they can also spread out mats on the grass and have a leisurely picnic.

Then take pictures and record the moments of the two people's travel.

For a moment, Su Lun felt like he was on a romantic trip where he just wanted to go.

In the evening, the sky was full of red clouds.

In the dark blue sky, a big bright moon and a few stars can already be seen.

On the horizon, a strangely-shaped mechanical castle drove unhurriedly. It was already a hundred and ten kilometers away from Lingdun, and another ten kilometers was "Wharton City".

night, quiet.

In the grass by the side of the road, there was a "squeak" of insects. In the forest, the faint green eyes of a monster who didn't know if it was a wolf or something lit up, gazing at the steel monster slowly passing by.

The orange lights lit up in the moving castle, and the maids prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Su Lun and Ekaterina are having dinner.

The lives of high-level nobles are extremely delicate, and even the meals during travel are extremely rich, including appetizers, dinners, desserts, and red wine.

The two ate, chatted about insignificant topics, and occasionally looked at the stars.

It was as if he didn't know that on the hillside in the distance, a cloaked man who was hiding in the dark was holding a binoculars and gnashing his teeth watching this warm scene, his bloodshot eyes were already full of twisted and jealous flames.

Suddenly, the castle stopped.

The driver in the cockpit suddenly shouted: "Miss, a body was found by the road!"

Su Lun and Ekaterina looked at each other and knew immediately that Young Master William had made a move.

Knowing that it was an assassination, there was no need for the bodyguards to die in vain in this level of battle. Su Lun stood up and said directly, "You wait here, I'll go down and have a look."

"Um."

Ekaterina nodded calmly.

While speaking, she was playing with a few beautiful small meteorites in her hand.

Su Lun greeted him, carried a black umbrella, and a teleport appeared outside the car.

He looked at a corpse dressed as a farmer on the ground, and the identification showed that it was a [corpse with a voodoo curse].

Su Lun frowned slightly as he watched.

There seems to be a small village on the hillside not far away, but the soul fluctuations of living people are no longer in the perception.

It was the moment he teleported out of the car, the black crow on his shoulder called out softly and issued a warning.

Su Lun's pupils shrank slightly, and immediately knew that someone was attacking: "Here!"
