Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 90 Negotiations

In the days that followed, Su Lun's life became fulfilling.

After successfully integrating the eight-armed spider spear, he needs a lot of time to practice multitasking to control the puppet, as well as climbing and moving, fighting and fighting.

Moreover, in order not to waste the two super-strength training potions that he bought with a lot of money, he also needs to spend several hours on physical training every day.

But fortunately, the life of the gang is very loose, except for the street patrol at 7 o'clock every night, which must be attended, there are no emergencies at other times, and they can be arranged freely.

Recently, Su Lun also found that harvesting ordinary corpses could bring him less and less experience, so he simply didn't waste time at the casino in the middle of the night. Only in the middle of the night when there are professional death battles, will I watch the finale.

In this way, time flies quickly, and the stable and fulfilling days are more than a month in a flash.

On this day, Su Lun was tinkering with mechanical modifications in the basement.

The dilapidated basement was much different from when he first moved in a month ago. During this time, Su Lun moved in like an ant, moving in a large amount of machinery and parts one after another, and even a small steam machine.

There are various mechanical tools hanging on the surrounding walls, which he bought from various shops, as well as the inner city good goods from the black market.

It has been transformed into his own mechanical workshop.

At this moment, Su Lun was wearing oily work clothes, goggles, and two attached "PT3 single-cylinder steam power arms" in both hands, and was fiddling with something.

The steam boiler provided super power to the robotic arm, allowing him to break the steel material in his hand into the shape he wanted without using a machine tool.

He's making ammo belts and ammo boxes for his sidearm, the Green Oni.

This famous gun has a super high rate of fire, and it is also resistant to high temperature without jamming. If it is only used as a pistol, the firepower advantage will not be exerted at all.

Even if it is a burst, even if it is an extended magazine, it will light up within a few seconds.

So, he thought of the heavy machine gun's kind of belt and external over-capacity ammunition box. When you really need fire suppression, hang the ammunition box on your body and connect it with an ammunition belt, and the pistol will immediately turn into a chug heavy machine gun.

And his hands are still busy, and the eight spider arms behind him are not idle.

Because there is a working robotic arm on hand, it is not convenient to take other things. When thirsty, a spider arm will bring a tea cup on the table a few meters away to feed himself a sip of water.

The eight spider arms save him a lot of time doing simple but time-consuming tasks.

For example: press bullets to the bullet chain.

There is no need to control too precisely, several spider arms cooperate with each other, and it is very easy to pour the bullets in the box into the special bullet press, and then press the handle, accompanied by "click" "click" " Click" with a rhythmic metallic crunch, and bullets will be neatly loaded on the chain.

Not long after, the last two ammunition boxes from the black market were refitted, and Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at his work, he seemed satisfied and muttered, "Finally done, ten ammo boxes should be enough."

This ammo box isn't just for Su Lun's [Blue Oni], but there's another thing in the room: a piece of mechanical power armor.

Su Lun took the ammo box, walked over to the mecha hanging on the wall, and tried the card slot, which was just right.

This mecha is just a test piece that Su Lun put together, very rough, but basically formed.

Su Lun named this iron lump "Iron Man Generation".

There is nothing superfluous on it, not even a casing.

The old and mottled body skeleton is a rough product modified by "The Wild Hunter Ⅷ Generation External Mechanical Skeleton"; the core is the "PT9 four-cylinder steam boiler" bought from the flea market, which can provide power for this iron lump; It is a simple and crude two-handed six-wheeled musket, connected with a belt and a bulletproof plate. There are also hydraulic transmission devices, high-pressure air valves, etc., which are all dismantled accessories from various used goods.

Although there is not much technical content, this thing is an attempt by Su Lun.

He tried to use steel wire to control this mecha as a puppet.

But because the technology is far from enough, the machinery is too cumbersome, and even the problem of running and falling easily has not been solved.

The only use now is when a semi-stationary turret, Su Lun remotely controls it to fire, making some simple displacements and aiming.

It can be regarded as a small step that his own mechanical puppet master envisioned.

It was midnight, and Su Lun would have had hours in the studio to make arrangements.

After finishing his today's machinery manufacturing task, in order to retain enough security for the power of the dark spirit, he accepted the breeding outfit.

He took out another puppet whose outline had not yet been carved, and thought that he could practice the making of the "Rune Puppet", but he didn't think that he had not carved a few knives when the communicator suddenly heard a rapid shake from Kai. Voice of the flag: "Everyone, bring guys, gather at the Speed ​​Elephant Tavern!"

Su Lun frowned upon hearing this.

The communicator is a tool used by the Crusaders to convene people in the event of a very serious emergency. On weekdays, if you make small noises and shout a few times, you can gather twenty or thirty people on Green Street, and you don't need a communicator at all.

He has joined for so long, and he used it once when the headquarters of the Cross Society was attacked on the first day, and now he heard it again?

Listening to Kai's tone, it seems that the matter is not small.

"Could it be that those guys from the Steam Party are making trouble?"

Su Lun guessed that Green Street and the Steam Party's territory were handed over, and conflicts often occurred. If there was a big commotion, 80% of them were those guys.

He didn't delay and changed into his work clothes.

Because the combat equipment is always stored in the storage ring, there is nothing to pack. Su Lun left the basement, and the engine car raced all the way, and arrived in front of the Elephant Tavern in less than two minutes.

When Su Lun arrived, the two groups of people on the street outside the tavern had already started a confrontation.

There were no ordinary drinkers on the street, and the two gangs, two or three hundred people with long guns and short cannons, divided into two distinct groups at the entrance of the tavern. The number continues to increase.

Su Lun glanced at it. The Cross Society was not only dozens of people from Green Street, but also the captains and gang members from other blocks.

It looks like it's going to be a big fight tonight.

The elimination rate of gangsters at the bottom of the gang is very high, and Su Lun is now an old man in Green Street. Because of his close relationship with Kai, although he was not officially appointed, the gang members also regarded him as a "vice captain". Especially the newcomers, when they saw his locomotive coming, they all nodded.

A relatively familiar newcomer walked over and greeted Su Lun: "Deputy team, you are here."

Su Lun didn't see Kai, and seeing that the battle tonight was a bit exaggerated, he asked, "What happened?"

The man said in a low voice: "The people of the Steam Party suddenly gathered their people to Green Street without knowing what to do. The cadres are negotiating in the tavern."

"negotiation?"

Su Lun frowned.

He looked at the arrogant locomotives of the Steam Party not far away, and realized that something was abnormal.

This kind of large-scale invasion, in ordinary days, is a direct war.

Still sitting down and negotiating?

But looking at the posture in front of him, he also knew that he would not be able to fight for the time being.

Since there are cadres negotiating, at least until there is no movement in the tavern, no matter how loud and provocative the people outside are, they can't make a move.

Su Lun probably figured out the reason for the gathering, and he didn't plan to mix in the crowd. He walked to the edge of the road at the corner, and found a place near the alley to squat.

In case of a real fight, the place where people gather is definitely the place where the grenade will be taken care of.

After squatting for a while, he watched Kai come out of the tavern.

Kai also saw Su Lun and motioned him to a remote corner, presumably having something to say.

The two met in the corner of the side wall of the tavern.

Su Lun, who had never seen such an ugly expression on Kai's face before, asked, "What happened?"

Kai motioned him to look inside the tavern.

Su Lun glanced through the window, and there were no drinkers in the tavern, just a bunch of strong men in black leather jackets and guns.

Two officers from the Cross Society, "Red Devil" Goron and "Smoker" Sambu.

On the other side of the negotiating table, Su Lun, the scar-faced man from the Steam Party, also knew him. The second-order cadre "Mad Dog" Hogg Weissnert was gifted with a beast-like [C-003-Wolfman], with a strong fighting ability. He is also a veteran of the Steam Party.

At this time, Kai said: "There is a big situation in the inner city, we may be in trouble."

Hearing this tone, Su Lun's face was completely unmoved.

When things go wrong, things go wrong. Anyway, what's going on in the inner city won't affect the people at the bottom who help them eat and sleep.

Kai said succinctly and said: "I just got the news that the top chaebol 'Reyce family' in the inner city has split and divided into seven. The property in Green Street is now in the hands of the third room. Today, the third room The eldest young master, Martin Reyes, is also upstairs."

"The Reyce family?"

When Su Lun heard this, he felt that good things suddenly had something to do with him again.

Isn't this the family of Reina's rich woman?

Madame Fino, the patron of their Cross Society, also had very close contacts with the Reyes family.

It's only been a month, what happened?

Could it be that Reina didn't control the overall situation when she went back, and was split up by her uncles?

Kai continued: "I don't know the specific situation. But I heard that it was the top of the Black Tower who put pressure on it, and the major families in the inner city didn't want to see the Reyes family as the dominant family, so they let Reyce. The owners were forced to agree to break up the consortium."

"."

Hearing this familiar routine, Su Lun's mind immediately came to a realization.

The "Reyes Consortium" almost monopolized the residential water and mining in Old Lington, a proper oligarch.

But the end of "oligarchs" is usually doomed.

Or be able to power and control the regime.

If you can't get through, the final result is a beating.

This is nothing new in the past life, just like the seven oligarchs in Russia, how beautiful they were when they were at their peak, but in the end they were also hammered out of temper.

Old Lingdon is a private lord system. In theory, everything in the city is the private property of the lord "Grand Duke Raphael". As long as there is the Black Tower, the highest authority over the inner city, no matter how big the "oligarch" is, they have to lie down.

But

What does the split of the Reyes family have to do with their Green Street?

Su Lun looked at the Steam Party as the other side of the negotiation, and seemed to have guessed something.

At this time, Kai finally expressed his worries: "The entertainment industry in Green Street is mostly the industry of the Reyes family. Now that the Reyes family is split, most of the pubs and gambling stalls are in the hands of the three houses. And those guys from the Steam Party don't know when they hooked up with the big Martin. Now what they mean is that we should withdraw from Green Street and let the Steam Party take over."

As soon as Su Lun heard it, he immediately understood.

With such negotiations, Su Lun felt that 80% of the talks would collapse.

If not, after a few chats, the tavern suddenly clapped the table and made a noise.

The sound was loud and spread into the street.

"Mad Dog" Hogg's attitude is very tough and aggressive: "In three days, your Cross will withdraw from Green Street, otherwise."

It is true that gangsters depend on their patrons for food, but not entirely.

The turf that was taken down by human life is let go, and the Crusaders are not so cowardly.

"impossible!"

"Smoker" Sambu slapped the table directly to interrupt the conversation.

He had a gloomy face, and his speech was slow, but his words were like nails: "Green Street has always been the site of our Crusades, Hogg, don't come to these fictitious things. You Steam Party wants a site, and it's clear if you have it. Get the gun!"

The patron of the Cross Society is Mrs. Fino, and as long as that person doesn't speak, it won't help anyone who comes.

As soon as these words came out, it meant that the negotiations had completely collapsed.

The sound of "come to grab" just fell, stinging the nerves of both parties, and everyone in the tavern raised their guns and aimed at each other.

Su Lun and Kai were not slow to respond, and immediately drew their guns and aimed at the steamers in the room.

This shot of the gun was like a chain reaction, and the gang members on both sides outside the door instantly became nervous, and heard the sound of "click" and "click" as the bullets were loaded.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, like a dynamite barrel that had ignited a lead wire, and if there was a slight disturbance, a fierce fire would erupt immediately.

For a while, the huge elephant tavern was silent.

No one dared to fire the first shot.

If we really want to fight now, it will definitely be the trigger for the two gangs to start a full-scale war!

Gang negotiation is often a fight for momentum, and flipping the table often happens, but it is less likely to fight at the negotiating table.

Originally, in this situation, there will be a third party to mediate according to the process, so that both parties can calm down and sit down and negotiate again.

Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened.

At this time, a wine bottle suddenly fell from the sky and hit the negotiating table.

"Crash" was smashed to pieces, and the wine stains were cheap for everyone.

Everyone was stunned. This move was a provocative act that did not take their gang of gangsters seriously at all.

Everyone looked angrily at the second floor of the tavern, but they waited until they could see who was coming, but they swallowed their anger one by one.

A young man in a silver suit leaned on the fence, looked down at the crowd, and said contemptuously, "Humph! A group of ignorant guys who gave you some sweetness, do you really take yourself seriously?"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the members of the Cross Society became very ugly.

Naturally, this was aimed at them.

Su Lun didn't know the young man, but looking at his suit of luxurious fabrics, he guessed that it must be a big man from the inner city.

Obviously, this is today's protagonist, the eldest young master of the Reyes family, Martin Reyes.
