Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 114 Deciphering the Diary (for Subscription)

Relying on this clever method, Su Lun stayed in the basement and buried himself in deciphering the contents of the diary for several days in a row.

There are a lot of encrypted content in the diary, and he only selectively studied that part of the content of researching distortion-suppressing potions.

Oh, not just ciphertext, but language.

It was also fortunate that he had mastered [Gunidish], a written language commonly used by ancient alchemists, when he stripped his soul before, otherwise it would have taken him several years just to be proficient in this ancient language.

However, even so, the difficulty of deciphering is still not small.

This diary involves many rare terms in ancient medicine.

Worst of all, some ancient nouns don't refer to the same thing as modern ones at all.

Relying on the convenience of the "Code Encyclopedia" and the Eye of Omniscience, Su Lun spent a few days trying to translate it, but he actually managed to decipher it!

He has already affirmed that part of the content is the complete refining method of the "distortion suppression potion".

But the remaining 20-30% cannot be translated, or the translated content is inaccurate.

The part that required too much professional medical knowledge, Su Lun threw it to Danny half a block away.

There were still some parts that he really couldn't translate, and he was going to ask the learned Mr. Hei for advice.

Coincidentally, in the newly delivered "Old Lington Daily", he saw the information about the meeting of the small circle in the black market.

this day.

Su Lun, who had been in the house for a few days, finally came out of the basement.

It was a good sign that there were no stares of attention from strangers on the street.

It means that their robbery operation in the past two days was very clean, and no one found Green Street for the time being.

Riding a motorcycle to the black market in Shadow Lane.

Putting on the cloak, he came to the secret space at the bottom of the black market five minutes before the appointed time.

The participants seemed to be on time, and within a few minutes of his arrival, more than a dozen people came one after another.

This time it was more lively than last time. When Mr. Hei finally came, there were already more than 20 people standing by the stone table.

Then there is the familiar process, first of all, the information exchange link.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened his mouth, someone asked about the explosion in West City.

"Does anyone know what happened to the explosion in the desolate park in the west city two days ago? I heard that even the cadres of the steam party are not qualified to approach the explosion site. Many mysterious people came to deal with it in the inner city. It seems to be people from the Umbrella Organization .”

"I got some information that there was a secret laboratory there. For some reason, it suddenly exploded."

"Hehe, the laboratory has been moved to the outer city. Could it be that they are doing some extremely harmful research?"

"."

Those who can advance to the second level are not fools, especially in the outer city, most of these cloaked people are big figures with heads and faces, and they have a wide range of intelligence channels.

When they heard that the explosion was a laboratory, they immediately speculated a lot of information.

Su Lun just quietly listened to what the group of bigwigs said, and it turned out to be almost exactly the same as what he had guessed.

"I got news a long time ago that those guys from the Steam Party have been secretly arresting homeless people for a long time. But I haven't heard of anyone eating those goods in the inner and outer cities. It seems that the disappearing population and That exploding laboratory has a lot to do with it."

"In vivo experiments? Those damned guys in the Black Tower really don't take the lives of us outsiders seriously."

"I don't know much about the others, but I'm sure that the one who caused the explosion is the one on the most wanted list. By the way, I want to ask if you know her clues, tsk tsk. I'm very interested in that bounty."

"I have some information, but it has been exchanged for a bounty. Someone saw her in the 'Black Jazz Clubhouse' in the West City before. She killed the human trafficker Dum in the Knights District, and then set fire to the clubhouse. Now that I think about it, it should be to inquire about the whereabouts of the population.”

"Yo? I said why the black knight suddenly caught fire, so it was the one who did it! Hahaha, why do you say that, why do I feel that the explosion is a bit fun."

"I have the latest information. There was a big battle in Beicheng last night. Somehow, the people from the Umbrella Organization found her, and after a fierce battle, they severely injured her."

"So, the person was arrested?"

"No."

"Can this run away?"

"."

When the topic came to this point, the person who provided the information seemed to have some scruples, pondered for a moment, and then said: "I heard that a third-party force was involved, tearing open the encirclement of the Umbrella Organization, and then she took advantage of the chaos to escape."

"."

Su Lun listened, and sure enough, the fault of going to save people by himself was taken by that one.

But at the end, when the man mentioned "third-party forces", everyone present was greatly surprised.

Su Lun also felt that there are still people in this old Lington who dare to fight against the "Umbrella Organization"?

Then I thought, isn't there someone in front of me?

Su Lun also found that when it came to this point, no one continued to talk about this topic, and they seemed to have some scruples.

Mr. Hei was as calm as ever and didn't speak.

There was nothing worth noting about the subsequent information exchange, and Su Lun also opened his mouth to contribute a little information of his own speculation, which can be regarded as participation.

Then there is the item transaction link.

The most talked about in this session is still the information about the "Dawn City" ruins.

Recently, many ancient relics have been unearthed one after another and sent back to Old Lingdon. In the hands of these bigwigs in the black market, there are also many high-level cursed items and materials that can be exchanged.

After a lively exchange.

Su Lun also saw very strange things.

During the period, he also found an opportunity to ask about the "Secret of Spiritual Power" and [Cursed Hair of the Weeping Witch] again, but no one responded.

It is also expected.

However, towards the end, there was a cloaked person who made a purchase request that caught his attention.

"I need a pair of 'Frost Giant Battle Armor', which must be in stock. I'm going out of town in three days. As long as someone can get it during this period, I'm willing to pay 20 million yuan to buy it, or a curse material of corresponding value. "

When Su Lun heard this, he remained silent.

In the batch he and Kai cut off earlier, there were indeed five sets of finished battle armor.

But this thing is very special. Once it is shot, there are only a few sources.

He felt that this guy was most likely fishing.

Moreover, the other party asked very cleverly,

I want it urgently, the price is higher than the market price, and the time is limited.

If you really have a channel in your hand and want to ship, you will definitely try to ship, after all, it is outdated. Moreover, that kind of goods are very sensitive, and it is not easy to meet buyers who dare to buy them.

Su Lun didn't speak, and the scene was silent for a moment.

At this time, another person said: "I can get it, but the time is not sure. And it doesn't have to be the whole set."

Judging from the tone, it's a bit like the person who had the channel to get the armor last time.

Hearing that, the buyer also wrote a note and replied: "This is my contact information. But I only wait for three days. If you can get it in time, the price can still be negotiated."

The trading session is over, and this small gathering is drawing to a close.

Su Lun found Mr. Hei who was about to leave, and explained why he came: "Mr. Hei, I have encountered some problems in ancient knowledge, and I need to ask you for advice."

He didn't know if Mr. Hei could see through the invisibility cloak, but he clearly recognized him.

Mr. Hei seems to be very interested in ancient knowledge, "Oh? Let's hear it."

Su Lun took out the sentences and notes that he didn't understand from the diary.

This [polymath] really knows this question.

He translated a few sentences casually.

"This phrase is a metaphor commonly used by ancient sorcerers. The phrase 'the wheat fell to the ground and died' means that the mercury died in the saltpeter and sulfuric acid. Liquid 'living silver' mercury becomes solid and dies, pun intended. Usually it will be used in some kind of material refining process."

"The magic steel is hidden in the belly of the fire dragon. Take the four parts of the fire dragon and the nine parts of the magnet." This sentence is a very advanced alchemy process, and the corresponding material is."

"Well, this sentence is very difficult. This is a professional term in the field of ancient medicine. I probably need some time to look through some materials to make sure that it is correct."

"."

Su Lun listened to him casually translating those secret words that he couldn't figure out even though he racked his brains. Although his expression was the same, his heart was filled with emotion.

This Mr. Hei is really knowledgeable, as if he knows everything.

Thinking about his innate ability again, Su Lun felt how compatible erudition + mind reading was.

As if before making a move, those wise eyes could see through everything about the enemy.

After all, too many ancient medical terminologies were involved, and some of Mr. Hei's translations were not accurate for a while, but he did not refuse to help with this little favor: "Well, give me this note, and I should be able to decipher it tomorrow at the most. Sometimes I leave the sticky note in the old place."

Su Lun nodded and asked, "Mr. Hei, what price do I have to pay?"

Mr. Hei said nonchalantly: "These precious ancient knowledge is the best reward you have ever paid."

After a pause, he smiled again: "Translating ancient scrolls is one of my favorite jobs. If you have more similar knowledge in the future, you can come to me, and I will be happy to help."

Gentleman as always.

Even though he guessed that there must be more ancient scrolls in Su Lun's hands, he hinted euphemistically in the least disgusting way.

"Thank you for your generosity."

Su Lun sincerely thanks.

He was not in a hurry to get rid of the stolen goods in his hand, and was going to wait for the short-term limelight to pass before asking.
