Mechanical Alchemist

As Su Lun expected, Albuquerque came to compete for the prize.

This copy of the "Core Structural Diagram of the Heart of the Four-Color Elements" marked by Master Lu Fan Hormont himself is indeed of great use to Su Lun now.

He happened to have the original version of [Four-Color Elemental Heart] left by the ancient goblin technological civilization in his hand. Coupled with the knowledge in this manuscript, there is a high probability that he can make some new breakthroughs in the current energy core research. If he could mass-produce elemental hearts with high energy storage, the combat effectiveness of his puppet army would rise to a new level in the future.

Su Lun had other plans, so he didn't tell Alberto. After a few warnings, he came to the parking lot where the motorcycle was parked.

His intuition told him that there was something wrong with Augustus wearing the vampire ring, and he planned to follow up to see.

The awards ceremony was still going on in the venue, and there were many motorcycles parked in the parking lot, but they still hadn't left.

Su Lun glanced at it, and saw several luxury steam cars parked in conspicuous positions.

One of the luxurious classical carriages has the aristocratic coat of arms of the Rodriguez family.

In the perception of the soul, there are people in the vehicle next to him, apparently guards watching the vehicle.

Su Lun walked over calmly, but did not approach the car, but quietly left a space mark on a passing white car.

He had observed the noble coat of arms before, and this was the car of the co-champion Miss Elsa Bach.

Then Su Lun walked straight to his steam motorcycle, started it and drove away from the parking lot.

He also knew after reading his lips before that those little nobles will have a celebration party at the nightclub tonight.

These top noble ladies and young masters must have anti-tracking masters around them. The general tracking methods are useless at all, and they will still be discovered.

Su Lun was not in a hurry, and left a mark to see if he could catch any fish later.

Su Lun is very busy now, and it is rare for him to spare half a day to watch the match between the two disciples.

After reading it, I went back to Reina's apartment.

Jike's [Multi-Layer Explosive Melta Bomb] has been successfully produced, and is still undergoing the final precise test. A few days later, there will be a Victory Day celebration at the Royal Academy of Alchemy. The library's security forces will concentrate on the ceremony, and Kit is going to do it at that time.

There is no need for Su Lun to worry about this, he just wants to make a mechanical prosthesis for Jike before the celebration ball, so that it will not affect his future life.

After dinner in the evening, Su Lun sensed the space marks left by him, and the car of Miss Elsa started to move in the North City.

He rode a motorcycle out the door.

After estimating the driving route of the marked vehicles, Su Lun found that the place where the group of little nobles agreed to have a party tonight seemed to be the nightclub area on the banks of the Rocco Valen River.

It happened to be not too far from Reina's apartment.

Su Lun went out on a motorcycle.

It was already dark, and the banks of the Roccovalen River were lit up with lights of feasting and feasting. The lights are bright near the Lingdon Iron Bridge. This is an upscale nightclub area where nobles like to get together.

Not as lively as the night scene on Fox Jewel Avenue in Queens, but luxurious enough.

It didn't take long for Su Lun to arrive on his motorcycle.

Most of the high-end nightclubs in this area are membership-only, because I am not sure which bar those little nobles choose. He didn't go in rashly, but wandered around first.

The weather in Lington during this period is always cloudy and rainy, and it happened to be raining again in the sky when we came.

After dark, the neon lights of the major night venues have been lit up, and there are pieces of extravagant scene with the main color of purple, red and blue cold light.

Su Lun walked into a dark alley and lit a 7 brand cigarette.

It's not that I have any addiction to cigarettes, but I want to get some smokey smell on myself that is suitable for night life.

This is an alley at the back door of a bar, filled with all kinds of empty wine bottles. Fat rats squeaked in the garbage cans looking for food. The rainwater gathered on the side of the street and flowed into the sewer, making a clattering sound.

Su Lun had nothing to do, so he jumped onto a low wall and squatted there to smoke.

Like when he was a gangster in Old Lynnton, he knew that these dark alleys were sometimes more lively than the pubs.

For example, right now, a pair of unfeeling men and women sneaked into the dark alley, and they were lingering fiercely in the corner where the lights couldn't reach, and they didn't notice that someone on the low wall was paying attention to all this with great interest.

Hiding in the dark to spy on the whole world gives people a very reassuring feeling.

Not long after, the lingering man and woman finished their work and left, and Su Lun also sensed that the marked vehicle was parked in the parking lot two hundred meters away.

Calculating the distance of the parking lot, he immediately knew where those noble ladies and young masters would choose to carnival tonight.

It was a high-end club called "Gustav House of Music".

In the darkness, Su Lun's face was a little strange.

Gustav is the original name of the great writer Hayato Fujiwara. This guy wrote a tragic novel called "Music House" in his early years. The content of the story is probably a vulgar love story of an affair in a bar.

He was not famous when he was alive, but now he is a mess.

Of course, this bar has nothing to do with the great writer.

That's just a name given by the owner of the clubhouse to the nobles who like to be arty.

The target came, and Su Lun finished smoking the cigarette in his hand and was about to leave.

But at this moment, by coincidence, a woman hurried in from outside the alley. The appearance is not bad, with short shawl hair that shows temperament, wearing a very capable black and white suit, overalls, probably a working class in a wealthy area. Her footsteps were slightly erratic, and she looked as if she was drunk.

And she seemed to be being watched by someone, and walked in in a panic to avoid something.

As soon as he came in, several people in leather clothes who were obviously gangsters followed him with lewd faces.

Su Lun glanced at it, and there was a high probability that some bullying drama was about to be staged.

This is quite normal in the night market area.

I thought about helping out.

But almost at the same time, Su Lun felt it and found it quite interesting.

The woman is a Tier 2 professional, and the bastards are Tier 1.

It seems that the identity of the prey and the hunter is not what it seems.

Then, it is a one-pass operation.

The woman used some potion to easily stun the bastards, and after groping for something on them, she stuffed them into the trash can.

Presumably these guys are going to stay in the cold, stinking trash can until dawn.

And the woman didn't notice all this last night, squatting in the dark and watching the whole scene by herself.

"Tsk tsk, interesting."

Su Lun watched a robbery for unknown reasons, and found it interesting, but he was not interested in watching the follow-up.

Seeing the woman leave, he walked out of the alley.

In front of you is a castle-style steeple building.

Su Lun had never been to this "music house club" before.

Looking at the hanging price list from a distance, the consumption is very high, and the price of drinks is two or three times that of ordinary nightclubs, which directly screens and purifies the customers.

The people who come in and out are either rich or expensive at first glance, or they are socialites with all kinds of gorgeous flowers.

Su Lun changed into a fairly decent suit, looking like a dentist who came to play after get off work.

He walked directly to the gate of the clubhouse, and the waiter at the gate led him in.

The layout of the clubhouse is no different from other bars, with dance floor, bar counter, booths, private rooms, ambiguous atmosphere, dim lighting, luxurious life.

It's just that the decoration is more luxurious, and there are classic utensils that nobles like everywhere.

Although the clubhouse looks deserted from the street, there is hardly any noise.

But it's actually very popular.

The dance floor was crowded with people, and the booths were 70% to 80% full.

After entering, the restless music rushed into the ears, making the body excited with the rhythm.

Obviously, the phonograph playing music is a higher curse, and this kind of widespread sonic pollution can make people feel deeply spiritually happy.

What made Su Lun even more strange was that all the girls serving wine here were dressed as nuns.

Because it is a high-end club, the quality of the waitresses is very high, beautiful and tall.

They all wore black and white veils, embellished with some sacred ornaments such as crosses, looking holy and solemn.

But their lower bodies are very sexy black dresses, with slits reaching to the waist. When walking, customers can clearly see the lace pantyhose and rope, and their slender legs are unobstructed.

This is a very high-level astringency.

The waiter introduced: "This is the recent theme of our clubhouse - the customer is the god."

In the alchemy civilization, people don't have any reverence for the gods, so no one thinks there is any offense in this club.

Su Lun also found it quite novel looking at it, so he laughed.

At least they are much more advanced than those tired bunny girls in other nightclubs.

It cost thousands of lisuo to order a draft of black beer casually, and Su Lun also sat down at the bar.

Because according to perception, Miss Elsa and Augustus have come and are celebrating in the private room upstairs.

Not long after Su Lun entered the "Music House Club", in an empty alley in the bar area, two mysterious guys were busy here.

If Su Lun was here, he would definitely recognize the short-haired woman among the two as the guy who robbed the gangster he saw earlier.

At this very moment, the short-haired woman was changing into a black and white nun's dress with high slits.

While changing, she whispered quietly: "Hey, hey, old man, can you have some confidence in me? This is not the first time this kind of entrustment, what's the matter with your distrustful eyes? "

The grizzled old cowboy responded, "Oh, Emilia, you know you've screwed up commissions before. Your kindness is out of place in this society, and it will kill you."

Hearing this, the short-haired woman gave him a blank look, but said nothing.

The old cowboy persuaded again earnestly: "Let me tell you, come out as soon as you find the client's lady. Don't cause trouble, you know! This is the territory of the Razor Party, and I don't want to cause any trouble. And There is obviously something strange behind this incident. Dare to kidnap a lady from a rich businessman without asking for a ransom, and it is not revenge. This is definitely not ordinary human trafficking. It is likely to involve some scandals of nobles and gentlemen. It is not us little detectives who can stained"

Before she finished speaking, the short-haired woman interrupted impatiently, and said again: "I know! I know! You have said it many times, old man. I will come out after completing the commission this time, and I won't mess around! "

"."

The old cowboy listened, smacked his lips, seemed a little helpless, and sighed slightly.

Su Lun was sitting at the bar in the clubhouse, just like ordinary drinkers, taking a sip of wine from time to time to pass the time.

Occasionally, I can flirt with the girls who strike up a conversation, but I have no intention of leaving.

He still had to observe what the little nobles upstairs were doing.

And after entering, Su Lun also found some abnormalities.

In this seemingly normal clubhouse, there is actually a secret room in the basement of the wine cellar.

Moreover, those secret rooms obviously have devices that interfere with perception detection, and even Su Lun's spatial perception is distorted.

This is clearly no ordinary basement.

Su Lun quietly took out the black umbrella, and then clearly sensed that there were still a few people locked in that mysterious underground chamber.

This also completely aroused his interest.

Lingdon does not prohibit the slave trade, so it is normal that there are often imprisoned slaves in nightclubs, and gangsters also have illegal human trafficking.

But that's usually in low-end nightclubs, not this kind of high-end clubs.

Moreover, what surprised Su Lun was that those people in the secret room were obviously professionals.

Although the rank is not high, they are all first and second ranks, but they should not be club girls.

"Who will be imprisoned?"

Su Lun thought about it.

And at this time, a scene that made him even more interested happened.

There was a large wave of new customers at the door, but Su Lun found that one of them was very familiar.

Even if he didn't look at it, he knew that this was the short-haired woman who robbed the gangsters in the alley.

"How did she come here?"

Su Lun rolled his eyes and thought it was a coincidence.

With a slight glance from the corner of his eye, he happened to watch the short-haired woman walk into a dark corner.

Two seconds later, she appeared in the field of vision, and suddenly transformed, the windbreaker on her body became the sexy nun's uniform of the waiter in the clubhouse.

"Huh? Interesting"

Seeing her magical behavior of changing clothes, Su Lun immediately figured it out, and thought, "Could it be that they are going to imprison those people in the basement?"

Normal guests don't need to pretend at all when they come here.

She also knocked out those gangsters before, and apparently took the access control key or something.

The short-haired woman looked very professional, like a detective or spy. Without attracting anyone's attention, she quietly sneaked into the depths of the club.

Su Lun remained calm, perceiving the whole process.

The woman was clearly prepared and professional enough. She avoided some dark lines in the clubhouse and walked quietly towards the wine cellar.

Su Lun thinks it should be to save people.

And judging by her professional methods, there is a high probability that she will not be discovered.

So I watched the play quietly.

However, when Su Lun was watching the woman's actions with great interest, suddenly, his pupils froze: "A strong man is coming?!"

At this time, a very special fluctuation suddenly appeared in the range of soul perception.

That soul wave was even more strange than the sixth-level Augustus upstairs gave him.

It's like the familiar breath of hell.

"."

Su Lun sat at the bar without any changes, drinking wine calmly.

Even if he didn't look at it, he could sense that the "master" walked into the clubhouse, and then sat not far from him.

"Is it for me, or did you meet by chance?"

Su Lun was uncertain.

But I think it should be the latter.

He didn't expect that he would encounter so many strange things just by following him for a drink.

The lights in the clubhouse were flickering, and Su Lun could clearly see the guy's face on a reflective iron sheet in front of him. It was a gray-haired, dirty old cowboy.

Although Emilia asked her old man not to follow, "Spiritual Detective" Jerome was worried about her safety and quietly followed into the clubhouse.

He chose an inconspicuous position and sat down at the corner of the bar.

But at this moment, his intuition told him that there seemed to be something wrong with the environment.

The moment his perception was released, he suddenly looked like a cat whose tail was stepped on, his hairs were blown up, and goosebumps popped up instantly.

"**!"

A swear word burst out in his heart.

It was a feeling as if sitting next to the god of death, and an indescribable horror struck, making one's spine chill.

"Is something going to happen tonight?"

Jerome was horrified.

He, who has always been cautious, immediately realized that something was wrong.

He knew that there was a young doctor sitting not far from him, and that was where the source of the danger came from.

But he didn't dare to look at it, and he didn't dare to make any changes.

After waiting for a while, the man did not move, and Jerome felt that he could breathe smoothly.

"It didn't come for me, it should have happened by chance"

Jerome felt that the other party should not have noticed him, and felt it again, "It's strange, how could his soul be so terrifying? When did such a person appear in Lingdun?"

The man was still drinking, but the calmer he became, the more uneasy Jerome felt.

He finally decided to try it out.

Taking advantage of paying the bartender, he took out a dirty sheepskin money bag.

Then reached in and took out.

There was a clatter of metal coins, and Jerome got a coin. He was about to take out the money bag, but at this moment, his eyes caught a glimpse of the scarlet blood on the coin, and the corners of his eyes twitched suddenly. It became densely covered, and shouted wildly in his heart: "My lord! How many people did this guy kill before he let me touch this bloody gold coin?"

Jerome didn't dare to take out the gold coin, but weighed it, but it was light, and there was a strange look in his eyes: "But...the result of the trial won't go to hell? It's strange, the murder is so serious, I'm also the first See you once. But he was a good man in the 'Holy Judgment' judgment?"

Although he was puzzled, Jerome breathed a sigh of relief.

At least, not the enemy.

The old cowboy thought Sullen hadn't noticed him.

I don't want to, Su Lun has been paying attention to this guy's every move since he entered the door.

It's really strong, but what's the matter with this guy's inexplicable behavior?

Although this guy hid it well, Su Lun could see it clearly. He was sweating and stiff again, and his face turned white and red. It seemed that his heart was very active?

However, when Su Lun watched the guy take out the sheepskin purse, his eyes became a little strange: "Is this guy divination?"

【The Betrayer's Purse】

Detailed Explanation: This is a divination dark magic tool that can judge whether the target is guilty or not; according to legend, the dead from hell use it to judge whether human souls should go to hell;

Su Lun glanced at the information identified by the Eye of Omniscience, and guessed something in his heart: "This magic tool is used for divination? It won't be for me again."

If it is the principle of proximity, then the drinkers around the bar are only a little strange to himself.

"Could it be that this guy discovered some flaw in me?"

Su Lun was a little surprised, and thought again: "It should be some special talent or professional ability. The one who can use this money bag should not be an alchemist, but a believer in God."

He has a jammer on his body, and it stands to reason that perception professionals shouldn't find him.

But he took out the money bag directly, obviously as if he had discovered something before doing so.

And well hidden.

If it wasn't for Su Lun's omniscient pupils, he wouldn't be able to tell that this act of touching money without energy fluctuations was divination.

Su Lun looked at the old cowboy and didn't show any malice towards him, nor did he "sneeze", so he just ignored him.

The two drank their wine without speaking.

In Su Lun's perception, the short-haired woman had successfully sneaked into the wine cellar, and then went deep into the basement.

The action was not sloppy, just like she robbed those gangsters in the dark alley before.

After a while, Su Lun looked at the clock at the bar.

In less than ten minutes, the figure of the short-haired woman appeared in the field of vision.

At this time, she was followed by a young blonde girl who was visibly trembling.

This soul wave is one of the people imprisoned in the basement just now.

Seeing the woman with short hair come out, the old cowboy beside him didn't sit down anymore, and walked out of the clubhouse.

Seeing this, Su Lun also understood, "So these two guys are in the same group."

They are here to save lives.

But it didn't save other people, that is to say, it should be a private detective or something, not an official person.

Don't want to cause trouble, just save the target.

Su Lun didn't think anything was wrong.

It's easy to bring one person out of this club, but if you bring a few more, there is a high probability that they will be discovered and none of them will be rescued.

And from the current situation, those people were imprisoned in the basement, which obviously involved some secrets.

Contamination is a big problem.

Su Lun watched the old cowboy cover the short-haired woman and left the clubhouse after rescuing her. He didn't want to catch up and ask about the situation.

Because of his perception, someone found that there were fewer people in the basement.

Not long after the short-haired woman rescued her, a fourth-tier professional walked into the basement.

He was the boss of the Razor Gang, Lawrence Shelby.

The Razor Gang is a veteran gang in Lington, and it is also the group of people who still stayed on the underworld after the "Black Stone" of the three major gangs in Lington was successfully washed.

Although there are not many night shows controlled by their gangs, their influence is extraordinary.

Because standing behind the razor party is a certain big congressman!

"Damn it! How could there be one less person!"

Lawrence found out that someone had robbed a person just now, and his face turned pale with fright.

No one would have thought that a murderous gang leader would tremble with fright when he saw that one person was missing, and he said to himself in panic like a panic: "We must not let that adult know that there is one person missing. man, or I shall die."

The loss of a first-order girl was originally not a big deal.

Just let the brothers kidnap another one.

But he knew very well that once the adult knew that the secret room had been exposed, he and his family would be dealt with immediately.

Thinking of this, Lawrence immediately made a decision.

He didn't even notify anyone to hunt down the thief, but quietly wiped everything clean, as if nothing had happened.

On the other hand, Su Lun watched someone go to the basement, and obviously found that there were fewer people, and there was no movement in the clubhouse at all.

"It's strange, if there is one person missing, why don't you even chase after him?"

Su Lun was still wondering why the fourth-order guy reacted so strangely,

at this time,

He suddenly discovered that "Augus" came out alone after the group of little nobles upstairs had a carnival.

Then, in Su Lun's perception, the guy actually went to the cellar alone.

"It's for him!"

For a moment, Su Lun's mind flashed, and he suddenly understood what was going on with those people in the basement!

He watched as "Augus" entered the basement, and the other six soul fires went out not long after.

"I should have thought of it earlier. The ring of the vampire! Those imprisoned people are the rations of that old monster!"

Su Lun's heart suddenly burst into flames.

[Lilith's Vampire Ring] can prolong life and keep youth forever, but the premise is that the curse must be weakened by sucking the blood of a virgin.

That old thing has lived to this day, and it is unknown how many innocent girls have been killed.

Thinking of this, Su Lun flashed a cold light, with an inexplicable anger: "This is a nobleman."

After Augustus came out of the underground secret room, dissatisfaction was shown on his face. It was an expression of unsatisfied and unsatisfied.

Lawrence, the leader of the Razor Party, was sweating coldly from the cold light, and he lowered his head, not daring to look directly.

"Lawrence, I remember I told you that if it's just this quality, at least eight next time, not seven."

"It's an adult! But please understand the difficulty of villains. Professionals above the first level are usually too young to find virgins of the right age. There are very few real virgins in the slave trade. The colleges in Lingdon have some , but most of them have backgrounds, if there are too many kidnappings, there will be a lot of trouble in the future. Recently, I heard that someone on the road is inquiring about 'this batch of goods'. If I am not careful, I am afraid I will be targeted."

"You don't have to worry about the police station, no one will trouble you, just let it go. Remember that if anyone snoops on this matter, deal with it immediately. If you encounter troublesome people, contact me immediately, and I will send People have to solve it. Also, if it happens again next time, you know the consequences yourself."

"Yes, my lord!"

Augustus didn't say much, and left quietly.

Su Lun didn't expect to follow this trip, but unexpectedly discovered this big secret.

It turns out that "Augus" has been looking for girls through gangsters as curse rations to eliminate the curse?

But for top nobles like the Rodriguez family, the death of a few civilians is really not a big deal.

Su Lun sensed that "Augus" had returned to the private room upstairs, and had no interest in staying any longer.

Even if you want to do it, it's not now.

He wasn't sure he would kill.

After drinking the wine in the glass, Su Lun planned to leave after watching for a while, but at this moment, he suddenly sensed that the short-haired girl who had left before had returned.

"What is this woman doing?"

Su Lun was a little surprised, watching her follow the crowd into the hall again as before, and then changed into a nun's attire.

Seeing this, he immediately understood that this woman still wanted to save others.

But now everyone in the basement is dead, going now will not save people, but will be discovered.

Thinking of this, Su Lun sighed slightly, and went up to meet him.
