Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 70 I'm a Puppet Master

"Mr. Su Lun. I. Do I really have to be blindfolded? But I can't see anything."

"Well, because they've already come."

Su Lun didn't explain how he knew someone was coming, and Reina didn't ask any further questions.

Although the two have not been in contact for a long time, Reina has an almost blind trust in the stranger introduced by this aunt.

She knew that the killer was very strong and that the burrow was full of crises, but from the beginning to the end, she did not see any panic from this man, and she was always calm. Because of this indifference, even Reina herself felt affected, and there was a kind of calmness that she could face even if she died.

At this moment, she was being held by Su Lun with a thick blindfold on her head, and she didn't know where to go.

Blindfolded, it is natural to completely give up the act of fighting.

It's not that Reina's combat power is not good, on the contrary, her basic skills are quite solid. Whether it's fighting, marksmanship or alchemy, they are far superior to ordinary first-order professionals.

However, in the current desperate situation, if you want to survive, whether it is a deformed monster or a killer, Reina's combat power is not enough.

On the contrary, concentrating on being the "bait" will give her a better chance of survival.

After being blindfolded, she didn't notice a pair of scarlet eyes lit up in the darkness around her, nor did she see the almost morbid grin overflowing from Su Lun's face.

In danger, Su Lun once again felt the feeling that made his adrenaline rush, and "he" liked this tightrope walking.

escape?

Gee

No. I want to kill people, I want to take banned items, and I want to kill monsters!

Isn't there a lack of high-quality spider leg materials?

There are just right goals here, and quite a few.

"The next fight will be dangerous, but as long as I don't get killed first, you won't die before me. Remember, if poisoned, inject antidote, but don't take off your blindfolds at any time, and don't run around. "

"Oh, I see."

Reina only felt that Su Lun's voice became more and more cold, and just hearing the voice, she felt a murderous aura.

Su Lun let go of her hand, and Reina felt as if she had fallen into an endless abyss, and a strong sense of fear instantly enveloped her heart. The world in front of me was dark, and no one spoke, and the gurgling sound of sewage was particularly clear.

She felt a "person" staying by her side, but her intuition told her that it seemed that Mr. Su Lun was no longer, it was terrifyingly strange.

After a while, a figure came in quietly from the tunnel where the two came, just as Su Lun expected.

He saw two figures in the distance, but stopped cautiously.

The gun in his hand was slowly raised and aimed at one of the two.

He didn't shoot, but directly exposed his location, shouting, "Miss Reina, where are you?"

Daniel knew very well that even if he didn't speak, the small trap triggered at the entrance of the tunnel had exposed his existence.

At this time, Reina was shocked when she heard Daniel's voice.

Sure enough, it was all guessed by Mr. Su Lun.

She took a breath, and although she couldn't see it, in order not to reveal her flaws, she turned back in a pretentious surprise. Across the distance, he shouted in the direction of the voice, "Mr. Daniel, I'm here!"

Daniel probably thought that his identity as a ghost had not been revealed, and he continued to perform with a very anxious tone: "Oh, God, I finally let me find you, you don't know that when I learned that you were hunted by monsters, there were How anxious. Miss Reina, was Assistant Rosa rescued you?"

Su Lun, who was hiding in the shadows, heard the temptation, with a sneer in his eyes, "Knowing that his opponent is far inferior to himself, he is still so cautious. No wonder he can be an insider."

He should have found Rosa's body, but now he pretends not to know.

The purpose is to say these few words, close some distance, and kill with one blow!

Hearing this, Reina said directly: "No, Mr. Rosa died trying to save me. Mr. Guide saved me."

But before the voice fell, she suddenly heard a "bang" gunshot. Almost at the same time, a strong wind blew through her hair, and it felt like a bullet brushed past her ears.

Reina was shocked, that assistant Daniel actually shot.

However, the bullet was not aimed at herself, but Mr. "Su Lun" beside her!

After losing sight, Reina focused all her attention on hearing.

Hearing the sound of gunshots, she instinctively clucked in her heart, screaming that it was not good.

Although she was shocked that Mr. Daniel, whom she loved and loved on weekdays, would really be the inner ghost of this assassination, she was more worried about Mr. Su Lun by her side!

However, the worry had not yet escaped from her heart, and within a very short period of time, Reina heard the second gunshot.

"Bang"!

But this shot was not fired by Daniel, nor by "Su Lun" beside her. The direction of listening to the sound is from another direction in the darkness.

Is there a third person here?

In addition to being pleasantly surprised, Reina also discovered an abnormality. That is, after the "Mr. Su Lun" beside her was shot, there was a crisp sound like wood shattering.

No, the moment she heard the gunshots, the sawdust shards hit her.

puppet?

Although Reina couldn't see it, she could guess something, and she was inexplicably excited and surprised!

Mr. Su Lun actually guessed that the enemy would shoot at him, and arranged for a puppet double in advance?

Su Lun had guessed that the killer would come after him when he was saving people before, and never reported a fluke.

Although the highly corrosive amoeba has completely corroded Reina's items, as long as there are people who are proficient in trace tracing, the subtle traces left by the two in the corridor cannot be concealed.

As it happens, this Daniel is a silver professional who is very good at trace tracking - "Forest Ranger"!

So, when the information was stripped from Rosa's corpse's memory, Su Lun knew that this guy would definitely come.

He was sure of one thing, that Reina didn't die, and everything he did was meaningless.

And Su Lun wanted to smack this guy, so he didn't choose to leave Reina alone as the bait.

After all, there is only one person in the traces of the two people, which will definitely arouse the alertness of Daniel, the "ranger", and the ambush will become meaningless.

The puppet that stayed by Reina's side was naturally to attract firepower.

As for why Su Lun was certain that Daniel would shoot "himself" first, instead of killing Reina first, he was 80% sure.

Would two people, a cautious "firearms expert" kill a student who knows everything and kills easily, or a stranger of unknown origin?

Of course, there is also an element of gambling.

But no risk, what's the bait called?

Besides, no matter who Daniel shoots first, the result is the same.

Whoever shoots first will reveal his position and lose the first chance.

In the duel between the masters, the skills and experience are almost the same, and the winner is often determined from the details.

Su Lun also learned from Leina that Daniel is a genuine "gun expert" and one of the gunnery instructors of the Black Tower Academy.

He didn't dare to underestimate anything.

This is not the parallel expert of Jack before, but a gunman who may be stronger than himself.

In the face of gunmen of the same level, it depends on who gets the first chance, and the victory or defeat is often in an instant.

Just now, Daniel opened his mouth to ask, but he actually wanted to paralyze the other party, look for opportunities and distance, and ensure that one shot will kill him.

Even Su Lun couldn't find any flaws in this cautious response.

But the guy never expected that he would hit the dummy with a shot.

If one shot fails, then it's Su Lun's chance!

Watching the moment the fire lighted up, Su Lun also drew the gun and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang~"

Tongues of fire spit.

The armor-piercing alchemy bullet spewed out from the muzzle, without hitting the head or the heart. The first shot hit Daniel's right hand holding the gun.

Because Su Lun knew that with the battle suit and gas mask, this shot would definitely not kill the guy.

The black tower's battle suit has special reinforcements in the fatal parts. As long as the energy is sufficient, even an alchemy bullet may not be able to break it. However, this kind of clothing protection is not without shortcomings. In order to ensure flexibility, the stability of the joints will be relatively weak. (Information also comes from Reina)

The palm is the place with the most joints in the human body.

Armor-piercing rounds are not lethal, but they are enough to break a hand bone.

It was this gunshot, and Daniel's musket not far away immediately let go, and a cloud of blood exploded, showing the bones.

But even if he was shot, the guy just didn't make a sound, just dodged and hid behind a stone pillar.

Because Daniel has already judged from the timing of the shooting, Su Lun is also a "gun expert"!

He knew very well that if he didn't leave, the second shot would definitely follow.

"What a cautious guy!"

Su Lun fired a shot that broke the opponent's right hand, and the enemy didn't give him a chance to hit the second shot at all.

Gunmen of the same rank know very well what the other party will do.

To be able to be a teaching assistant in the Black Tower Academy, even if it is a first-order, it must be a leader in the same class. Daniel and Rosa are almost both half-step second-order existences, and they each have very strong fighting methods.

Su Lun knew that the guy had broken his hand, but his real fighting power didn't lose much.

Because Daniel's real strength is his melee ability!

And at this moment, I suddenly heard a violent "squeak" in the darkness, like the feeling of an instant explosion of a high-pressure gas tank, which caused a wave of air that stirred the entire space.

"coming!"

Su Lun's pupils shrank suddenly, and suddenly he was looking at a figure that hit him like a cannonball.

The speed was so fast that it didn't give anyone any time to react, and it smashed the concrete pillar directly, and then slammed into Su Lun's body.

The muscles didn't have time to react, but Su Lun Su Lun was already prepared. But when he saw his fingers, the steel wire on the mechanical glove pulled his body abruptly sideways by a distance.

With a sound of "dong", a phantom that was invisible to the naked eye flashed.

The two hugging figures slammed into the wall in the distance, and instantly burst into a large cobweb-like crack.

Such a brutal collision is enough to smash a meat professional into pieces!

Daniel just felt that he had succeeded, but suddenly he felt that the "human" he was holding in his arms was not of the right quality, and when he looked closely, it was a life-size doll.

"not good!"

Daniel's face changed suddenly, and he understood something in an instant: the other party knew all about his breeding equipment and talent!

"That guy is actually a puppet master?!"

But now I realize it's too late.

This misjudgment is fatal.

Just a few meters away from the smashed stone pillar, the musket was aimed at Daniel again.

Su Lun knew that the "Forest Ranger" profession had a strong perception ability, so he deliberately made a move to lure the other party to seize the opportunity and rush in.

This is the advantage of information asymmetry.

Su Lun knew almost everything about this Daniel's abilities, while the enemy knew nothing about him.

If we really want to fight fairly, Su Lun's odds of winning will not exceed 20%!

This guy is a "new school" alchemist, and his alchemy equipment is a product of black technology that combines steam machinery and traditional equipment - [Remorse Skeleton Jet].

After accumulating steam, a sudden burst will generate a super thrust like a jet plane. This thrust can make people move quickly like a cannonball, and the straight-line lethality is extremely strong, and it is almost difficult for professionals of the same level to avoid it.

This ability alone is not too difficult.

The most important thing is that this breeding outfit is highly compatible with his talent!

Although his talent is not a rare B-rank, it is also a very strong mysterious ability in actual combat——【Talent C-001-Forbidden Demon】.

A kind of weird talent that can instantly block the energy of the opponent's body by touching the enemy with both hands.

As long as it is touched by his hand, dark spiritual power, strength, magic power, and even blood flow will be blocked or slowed down instantly.

This breeding equipment and talent is simply a nightmare for melee combat.

Combined with high-speed collision and close-fitting magic ban, even the first-level professional will suffer a big loss!

This is also one of the most important reasons why Su Lun had to abolish one of his hands in the first shot!

Daniel's face was ashen, and he smiled bitterly in his heart: "He actually used Miss Lena as bait, hehe."

At the last moment of his life, he realized that every attack he made was in the enemy's calculations. From entering this space, to shooting, to colliding. The opponent calculated every move he made.

The key is that he never thought that someone would dare to use the eldest lady of the "Reis Family" as a living bait!

Even if it is to save people, who would dare?

However, it was too late to wake up now.

In a duel between masters, one mistake may still have a chance to turn the tables, but consecutive mistakes are almost a dead end.

The inertia of the collision has not disappeared, and there is no time to dodge, Su Lun's rune gun has already spewed flames.

A shot hit his intact left palm, abolishing the most threatening hands. Then several shots hit the ankle, knee, shoulder, and elbow.

bang, bang, bang, bang

The sound of gunfire was incessant.

If one shot doesn't work, then shoot two shots at the same location.

At such a close distance, there is no chance that Su Lun will miss.

Even a battle suit could not dissolve such a terrifying continuous impact energy, and the blood holes were shot out one by one.

This Daniel lost his life because of two face-to-face mistakes.

The enemy has been beaten into a blood sieve, but at this time, there is no relief on Su Lun's face, but his pupils shrink suddenly.

A murderous intent has arrived quietly, making the hair stand on end.

But when he shot Daniel, in the darkness behind him, a figure as transparent as jelly staggered for some reason, and suddenly made a movement.

Su Lun's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was not surprised at all, and said to himself, "Sure enough, stalker."

At this moment, he gave up the musket and slammed his hands and fingers together, tearing the leather jacket on his back, revealing two eerie dolls covered in blue runes.

He grabbed his hands in the air, and the two puppets floated around him like guardians. Their wooden jaw joints kept opening and closing, as if they were grinning.

"quack"

In the dark sewer, the sound was particularly harsh.

At this moment, a pair of strange red eyes gradually lit up in the surrounding darkness, and those monsters were also drawn out of the darkness by the special stimulating taste.

At this moment, the clarity in Su Lun's eyes was also replaced by a violent and savage smile: "If you want to assassinate me, Jie Jie, I am a 'puppet master'!"
