The Last Alchemist

When Green broke into Linnaeus' wooden house with the mansion guards, Rosen heard the movement in the alchemy room in the basement.

Thanks to his extremely keen hearing, Rosen still heard all of Green's words even though he was separated by a layer of wood.

He stopped writing, put his quill in the ink bottle, and began to pack up the papyrus manuscripts he had written. While packing, he said: "Magic Green discovered the secret room. This guy has an impure mind. He wanted to kill you and silence you before. Come here now." , it will most likely be detrimental to us. Do you want me to kill him?"

Lilith shook her head: "No, Green is a very powerful three-star battle magician. He is very dangerous. He also has many guards around him. We can't fight him head-on. Hide."

"Can't you fight hard?" Rosen squinted at Lilith. Until now, he had never used a melon bomb. Facing an opponent in a closed environment, just one melon can completely solve the problem.

At this time, messy footsteps could be heard on the wooden floor above the basement, and the conversation between the guard and Green was clearly transmitted. Lilith had no time to think more, and she said urgently: "Alchemist, there happens to be a sewer entrance over there. Let's Retreat from there quickly."

After saying that, seeing Rosen being unhurriedly packing the package, she urged: "Alchemist, even if you can win, fighting is always risky. What if there is an accident?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Rosen took out the melon and stared at the board above his head. As long as the board opened a crack, he would control the melon to fly out from the crack and solve all the troubles.

The conversation above his head continued. Green had found the keyhole to open the basement. Locks could only block ordinary people and were ineffective against magicians.

Lilith became more and more anxious and struggled to get up: "Quick, don't hesitate, there is not much time! Alchemist, Green is guilty, but he has not been convicted. If a person dies, nothing can be said. Even if you win and successfully kill Green and those guards, it will not bring you any honor, it will only be endless trouble!"

This was very reasonable and successfully convinced Rosen. Nerogard City is not a wilderness, and Green is not an ordinary person, but a three-star magician from the academy.

He came to Nerogard not to kill people, nor to cause trouble for himself. He had no grudge against Green, so there was no need to kill him.

In the alchemy room overhead, the magician Green is already unlocking the door. In a few minutes, the wooden board will be opened.

Not much time.

Rosen moved faster, packed the package and carried it on his back. He walked to the small bed, picked up the thin dress lying beside the bed, shook it off a few times, and then put it on Lilith's head.

"It's too late to put it on, let's leave first." Lilith was in a hurry. In her current state, she could not escape the word death when she met the three-star magician Green.

"Don't move, we still have time."

Rosen forcefully put the skirt around Lilith's neck, then lifted the quilt with one hand, quickly pulled the skirt to the end, then wrapped the quilt tightly around Lilith again, then hugged Lilith with both hands, and walked quickly towards the entrance of the sewer. .

There were a lot of things weighing hundreds of kilograms on the iron cover of the sewer entrance. Naturally, this was not a problem for Rosen. He activated his alchemy magic and kicked hard with his feet at the same time. With two combined kicks, he easily kicked down these heavy objects. aside.

With a 'clang~' sound, the iron cover was lifted. Under the cover was a vertical passage with a diameter of seventy or eighty centimeters. There was a moldy wooden staircase on the wall of the passage.

‘Shame~~’

There was a sound from the entrance board above the basement, and Green had successfully unlocked it.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Lilith urged softly.

"Don't worry~"

Rosen was not in a hurry to climb into the passage. He let go of the hand holding Lilith, fished for his belt, took out a special smoke bomb, bit open the ring with his mouth, and threw it towards the entrance steps. .

"Chi chi chi~~~"

There was a sound of airflow, and a dense white mist suddenly appeared at the entrance of the steps. Under Rosen's control, all the mist poured out toward the alchemy room on the ground.

"Cough~cough~cough~" came the sound of violent coughing.

"What?"

"No, it's poisonous smoke! Hurry! Hide!" It was the voice of the magician Green.

Rosen chuckled, hugged Lilith tightly with one hand, and climbed down the wooden stairs step by step towards the sewer in an orderly manner. After climbing down for more than 3 meters, the narrow passage turned into a spacious underground tunnel.

The corridor is arch-shaped, 4 meters wide and more than 2 meters high. There is a deep water tank in the middle, in which black, smelly underground water flows. There are two walkways about half a meter wide on both sides of the tank. For walking.

Rosen took out the flashlight, turned it on, and shined it toward the corridor. He saw pitch black, and the light could not reach the end.

Several sewer rats were frightened by the light and made "squeaking" sounds. Some ran away, and some were bolder and looked at Rosen and Lilith curiously.

Rosen raised Lilith higher and buried his nose in the quilt to cover up the stench of the sewer: "This damn place, I hope the Bishui River won't flood, otherwise we will be doomed."

"Alchemist, was the white mist poisonous just now?" Lilith was still concerned about the white mist.

Rosen began to walk forward: "It's not poisonous, it just chokes people. Of course, there are people here who are emitting poisonous mist. If you hadn't allowed it to be used, I might have thrown it out just now."

"It's good that it's not poisonous, otherwise it will be troublesome." Lilith was relieved. She seemed to be afraid that Rosen would be unhappy, so she explained: "The alchemist and the magician Green must die, but he is now a member of the academy and has no chance. He was killed for no reason, and the academy will definitely investigate him. At that time, we will all be wanted with a reward, and there will be countless bounty hunters coming to our door."

Rosen shrugged: "Miss Linde, there is no need to explain, I understand."

As soon as he finished speaking, the roar of the magician Green came from the sewer entrance where the two had just come down: "Monster, don't even think about escaping!"

Rosen was startled and immediately stretched out his hand to grab the meat grinder and musket in his hand, but he still felt a little incredible: "How dare that magician chase down such a ghost place?"

It was pitch dark in the sewer, there was no light at all, and it was inconvenient to turn around when coming down the stairs. If Green dares to chase him down, and Rosen hides in the dark and makes a sneak attack, that guy's ten lives won't even be enough.

After killing him, Rosen threw the body into the waterway, and the sewage would naturally wash away the body. When the time comes, when people talk about Magician Green, they will not say that he is heroic, but will only spread the news about his stupidity.

Lilith shook her head: "Of course I don't dare to chase him. He is just bluffing. He should be telling the guards around him."

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the guard's voice of persuasion came from the entrance of the passage. After a while, the magician Green was persuaded by 'success', and his roar came again: "Monster, I will catch it one day." You! One day I will burn you to ashes~~~~"

"Well, it turns out it was a scene talk."

Rosen put away the meat grinder and musket, picked up the flashlight, and continued walking deeper into the sewer. After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped: "Miss Linde, I'm completely lost. Do you know how to get there?"

Lilith shook her head: "I don't know either. However, underground waterways extend in all directions and there are many exits. If we follow the direction of the water flow, we can always find a way out."

"Okay, I hope I can find the exit soon. I don't want to stay in this damn place for a moment longer." The air was so polluted that Rosen wanted to plug his nostrils.

After walking forward for about a kilometer, the underground tunnel suddenly ended, and a very huge underground space appeared in front of it.

The height of this place is over 10 meters, the width is over 15 meters, and the walkways on both sides have become very wide, just like streets on the ground. Above the passage, there is a delicate and strong arched structure, and the surrounding walls are all made of blue bricks. They are very smooth and look better than the walls on the ground.

Where is the sewer? It is simply an underground city.

This was the first time for Rosen to visit such a place. He was dumbfounded. In a world with such backward productivity, he really couldn't imagine that anyone would spend so much manpower and material resources to build such a magnificent underground project. Isn't this a waste of money? ?

"Miss Linde, when was this place built?" Rosen asked Lilith.

Without thinking, Lilith also looked confused: "I don't know, there is no relevant record in Nerogard's history books."

Rosen was mesmerized when he heard this: "I didn't expect that there is nothing under the Nirogardians' buttocks. I'm afraid just thinking about it... Wait, there are footsteps ahead."

He immediately turned off the flashlight, turned sideways, returned to the entrance of the corridor and hid.

After a while, a hoarse voice like glass being rubbed came from the left side of the corridor: "Hey, man, let me take you to a good place."

"What a good place?" Another voice sounded as sharp as a mouse.

"I discovered that place by chance. I don't know what happened recently, but fresh corpses keep falling down. Tsk, tsk, I eat every day, and I'm full. I couldn't eat anymore, so I thought of you. Let's go eat together. Eat it to your heart’s content so it doesn’t go to waste.”
