Mechanical Alchemist

The enthusiasm for the wedding of the prince and princess gradually dissipated, and the sunny days that lasted for several days in Lingdun disappeared.

In the early morning, the fog permeated the entire Lingdun City again.

At the entrance of Rose Manor, there was mist, and a steam locomotive with a unique shape was parked on the side of the road. The servants were loading large luggage into the car, and it looked like they were going on a long journey.

Not long after, Ekaterina in a long black dress came out of the manor holding Su Lun's arm, and the two got into the carriage intimately.

In the distance, reporters waiting at the street corner took pictures of the two getting into the car.

The plan for the honeymoon trip is to go south by land, and take a car to visit the scenery on the south coastline of Luying, and finally arrive at the Kingdom of Ragadi in the south.

Prince Fick and Princess Ekaterina are going to inspect their domain.

Lu Ying does not restrict locomotive transformation. Noble families almost have their own mechanics, so there will be many strange locomotives with unique styles. This is a remodeled steam-kinetic touring car. The interior and appearance were designed by Ekaterina herself, and she took a very poetic name - [Sunward Windmill Castle].

It's a car, but it's more like a moving magic mechanical castle.

In addition to the wheels and tracks, there are also several strangely shaped mechanical arms. This allows it to cope with various road conditions, even where there are no roads, it can also take the owner to see the beautiful scenery that is inaccessible.

Its interior space is as spacious as a train carriage, and it is very spacious for seven or eight people. The decoration in the carriage is as magnificent as ever, and all kinds of utensils are extremely luxurious. There are also many magical devices, which make this moving castle a more comfortable living experience.

Two maids were preparing refreshments, and Su Lun and Ekaterina were sitting opposite each other at the small table by the glass window, each leisurely reading a book.

It is said to be traveling, but the state of the two of them is no different from that in the study of the mansion.

However, the "books" in the hands of both of them are very special.

Ekaterina wrapped a layer of fluorescent energy clusters in her slender hands, and what she held in her hands was a novel with cursed characteristics that blew out the chill, and this was naturally the "Land of the Underworld".

After opening it two days ago, she found some extraordinary insights that are highly compatible with her profession, so she has been reading it for the past few days.

In Su Lun's hands, there is a simple and ancient book lingering in darkness, which is the [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript] collected by the Regardi family.

For some reason, he only got this notebook last night.

Mr. Jing said before that her father had an idea to use a giant dragon to refine a kind of reproductive equipment, which might be recorded in a manuscript.

Su Lun didn't even think about it, it happened to be the volume that Lei Jiadi collected.

After flipping through it for a while, I finally saw the last page.

He rubbed the space between his brows, closed the book, and sighed in his heart: "This [Isaac's Golden Body with Dragon Patterns] requires a lot of materials for breeding equipment. It actually requires the sacrifice of a whole dragon."

Just now he had roughly read the content of this note, and he was amazed, but also a little overwhelmed.

Sir Isaac's idea of ​​designing this costume is indeed extraordinary, even unimaginable.

The alchemy demigod wrote the following in his notes: "The giant dragon is the only magical creature in the low-level plane that has a complete bloodline of a higher race. This is the most perfect curse material I have ever seen. They have an unbelievably perfect Dual Resistance to Objects and Demons. After researching, I found that the dual resistance is derived from a natural dragon rune language, which I call [Sacred Dragon Pattern]. The perfect rune of power. And according to the myths and legends, the dragon pattern of the low plane can grow into a god-level dragon pattern, which means that the basic rune language combination for constructing the dragon pattern is "perfect"

Su Lun also knew that the rune system in the field of alchemy also had different qualities. D, C, B, and A represented the perfection of the runes.

And Sir Isaac's evaluation is that Dragon Mark is the perfect evaluation of SSS+.

Sir Isaac's idea is to refine the "dragon pattern" into a breeding suit, and bless it to alchemists, so that humans can also have an invincible and powerful body like a dragon to a certain extent.

Su Lun could roughly understand it.

The runic flesh of the dragon.

This is very likely the origin of the "rune warlock lineage" among alchemists.

He had even studied Pandora's body before, and those super-order runes that he couldn't understand were most likely dragon patterns.

However, not to mention how difficult the refining is, how harsh the fusion conditions are.

Just seeing that the main material is a giant dragon (the higher the grade, the better), Su Lun felt very painful.

If it is some leftovers of the Dragon Clan, it may still be found in some ancient ruins and cursed spaces.

But this whole thing is simply impossible.

It is no wonder that the Regardi family has collected this manuscript for many years but has not used it much, because no one can find the main material.

The level of knowledge recorded in this alchemy manuscript is profound and high-end. After reading it roughly, Su Lun had too much information pouring into his mind and wasted a lot of energy.

The movement between his brows was seen by Martina who was preparing refreshments.

She walked over with a wink, stuck to the back of the chair, and helped Su Lun relieve his fatigue with professional massage techniques.

Su Lun's head rested in a gentle touch, and his temples immediately felt the coolness of his fingertips. He smiled slightly, "Thank you."

After getting along day and night for a few days, the maids have gotten to know Su Lun very well, and they seem to regard him as the master of the house, serving him very considerately.

This made Su Lun somewhat accustomed to such caring service.

Martina smiled and said, "Sir, you are too polite."

The station wagon's suspension has been modified very subtly, and the bumps are very slight.

The atmosphere in the carriage is very warm, the tea is boiling "woo-woo", and a fragrance permeates the carriage.

Su Lun looked at the passing scene outside the car window, and found that they were driving along the north bank of the Rocco Valen River, and they would leave Lingdon all the way to the south on this road.

After looking at the street scene for a while, he looked away, and happened to see Ekaterina who was reading intently on the opposite side.

His gaze paused for a moment.

After getting along day and night for a few days, the two of them are quite familiar with each other.

I also have to admit that Ekaterina is really outstanding, and has unmatched efforts by ordinary people.

Su Lun himself struggled from the bottom, and if he didn't work hard to become stronger, he might die.

But Ekaterina was different.

She already had a family with no worries about food and clothing for several lifetimes, so this effort is very rare.

After living together for a few days, Su Lun realized how busy she was every day. Secret reports from the Military Intelligence Department, various government affairs feedback from the Lance family, and various materials to be processed piled up like a mountain.

She also takes time for self-improvement, occasionally flipping through poetry books.

She is in a serious, focused and efficient state almost all the time.

It seems that every minute and every second is planned.

Ekaterina never shy away from Su Lun when dealing with the information.

Although he really wasn't interested.

But after seeing those far-sighted plans, Su Lun gradually realized that under the gentle and beautiful appearance of this noble lady, there is still a "great ambition" with great ambitions in her heart.

The more you know, the more admiration you will have from the bottom of your heart.

The feeling on her was very strange.

But now, Su Lun gradually understood that under her deep and indifferent temperament, she was carrying too many ideals.

In her ideals, there are light poetry and distant places, as well as the heavy rise and fall of civilization.

Katyusha is her, but she is not just Katyusha.

Probably because her gaze stayed for a moment longer, Ekaterina on the opposite side noticed it, looked up at him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

As she spoke, her eyes fell back on the lines of the novel.

"It's okay."

Su Lun withdrew his eyes, looked down for a moment, and thought of something when he saw her fragrant shoulders exposed, and asked curiously: "I just suddenly thought, last time in the Emerald Forest, why did you bite me?"

The two get along day and night, and there is nothing to avoid, and they blurt out when they think of it.

When Yekaterina heard this, she didn't raise her eyes, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised an indifferent arc, and she said, "Forget it. When you think about it, you will know that you deserved to be bitten."

"."

Su Lun was helpless and didn't ask any further questions.

He just always felt that that fragment of memory seemed to be quite important.

At this moment, the maid Leona, who had been guarding the communicator, came over suddenly, apparently she had something to report.

Ekaterina raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Leona immediately said: "Miss, just now MI2 has confirmed the whereabouts of William Regardy, he has left the city ahead of time, and someone saw him in Yorkshire just now. The staff deduced that he should be in Wharton Ambush us near the city."

Ekaterina was not surprised at all, and said lightly: "Oh."

After thinking about it, she looked at Su Lun and asked, "According to this speed, we should arrive in Wharton City tonight. Do you want to start preparing?"

Su Lun listened and nodded, "Well. It's almost as expected, so it's going according to plan."

When Ekaterina heard Su Lun's words, she obviously understood. She greeted Leona and said, "Notify the gangsters in Lingdun to disperse the special potion of the Red Death now. Be sure to finish the potion before tonight!"

Leona: "Yes, miss."

Su Lun listened in silence, but he knew why the powder was related to the assassination.

The whereabouts of that young master William are almost under the control of the Military Intelligence Department, whether to defend or kill, it is actually not difficult.

But obviously, there are other, deeper schemes in the plan of the two of them now.

After Su Lun got the information about the "Undead Demon Monk" Las Lisboa, he carefully analyzed the cause and effect, and found that this assassination was not as simple as buying a murderer on the surface.

He deduced a highly logical hypothesis from relevant clues and the information he possessed.

That is, that demon monk may be a crucial figure in the collusion between the "Priority of Giants" and the royal family of Bona!

In this way, the assassination was even more subtle.

Both Su Lun and Ekaterina have good strategies, and once they combined, they decided to make a big vote!

But what can be said about this plan is only William's part.

In addition, it is incredible.

Because of the taboo of direct calling, directional planning will also be sensed by some gods.

Can only rely on tacit communication.

The only thing that is certain is that once the special potion of the Red Death appears in Lingdun, it will be the beginning of the decisive battle.

After listening to the information, Su Lun thought of something else in his mind.

If it was as he expected, once William's assassination started, there would be an earth-shattering battle that would be extremely dangerous.

Even Su Lun himself couldn't guarantee absolute safety.

His pupils were slack thinking about various details, and then he focused again, and his eyes fell on Ekaterina's fair and delicate shoulders and neck. She is wearing a casual low-cut princess dress today. From this angle, she can see a white and deep career line.

Yekaterina obviously also noticed the gaze, and gave him a blank look, but ignored it.

Su Lun obviously didn't want the beautiful scenery, but thought of something.

At this time, he took out a very exquisite rose gold necklace inlaid with sapphires, put it on the table, and was about to say: "This."

When Ekaterina saw the necklace, she seemed to be suddenly interested, but she was also slightly surprised, and asked directly, "For me?"

"Um."

Su Lun nodded, and explained again solemnly: "This necklace has directional space coordinates drawn on it. Take it with you, in case of any situation, I can perceive the coordinates, and maybe I can respond to each other."

At the end, he added: "Of course, if you think it is necessary."

Hearing this explanation, Ekaterina raised her eyebrows slightly, with a smile that was not a smile, "Oh?"

After a pause, she didn't know what to think of, and said to herself in a slightly weird tone: "I have received many gifts since I was a child. But this is the first time I have received such a gift."

But she was feeling in her heart, it was so casual.

Although she didn't care, it was the first time she met someone who gave her a gift like this.

This is also a jewel brought out from the sea ruins. It is very precious in itself and looks very good.

But it's too crude,

It doesn't even come in a fancy gift box.

The attitude of the sender is casual.

It's like... handed over a gun: Hey, hold it for self-defense.

My heart is full,

But it really makes people not expect to receive a romantic gift like a necklace.

Su Lun saw that Ekaterina didn't intend to reach for the necklace at all, and a doubt appeared in her heart: Did she mean that she didn't want it?

Oh, with her strength, she really doesn't need it.

The atmosphere felt a little awkward at first, but I didn't expect a sudden reversal.

Ekaterina reached out and caressed the necklace on the table, seeming to like it a lot, and exclaimed, "It's a beautiful necklace."

"???"

Su Lun just wondered why she suddenly changed her attitude.

Seeing Ekaterina look at herself again, she smiled and said, "Can I ask Mr. Su Lun to put it on for me?"

Su Lun was slightly taken aback.

It turned out to be accepted.

But why should I help wear it, it's not Jessica's job?

Hearing the conversation between the two, the maids on the side covered their mouths and chuckled, showing no intention of coming up to help.

"certainly."

Su Lun didn't think much, stood up, took the necklace and walked across the table behind Ekaterina. Then he helped her put the necklace on her slender neck.

At this time, the maid also brought a mirror.

Ekaterina admired herself and the necklace in the mirror, then glanced at Su Lun behind her, her eyebrows curved, "It really looks good."

The steam-moving castle drove all the way away from Lingdon. After leaving the city, the smell of soot in the air gradually disappeared.

Walking to the outer suburbs, you can already see the blue sky.

Although the road conditions are not very good, it does not affect the passage of the steam castle.

The degree of industrialization in Luying is very low, and after leaving Lingdun, almost all of them are seen in a very primitive farming state.

Castle villages, country lanes, blue sky and white clouds, singing birds and fragrant flowers, little deer, the scenery along the way is good.

Occasionally passing by the village, curious children will point and know that this is a great nobleman from Lingdon.

After driving to the outskirts, the moving castle also opened the mechanical roof, and the roof turned into a transparent glass room. The people in the car can enjoy the fresh wind in the car and enjoy the scenery along the way.

It was also the first time for Su Li to experience such a loose scenery.

He and Ekaterina are really like a newlywed and honeymoon couple, stopping and going all the way.

When encountering a hillside full of mountain flowers, they can spread out mats on the green grass and have a leisurely picnic.

Then take photos and record the details of the two people's travels.

Suddenly, for a moment, Su Lun felt that he was on a romantic trip.

In the evening, the sky is full of red clouds.

A big bright moon and a little bit of starlight can already be seen in the dark blue sky.

On the horizon, a mechanical castle with a strange shape drove unhurriedly. It was already a hundred kilometers away from Lingdun, and "Wharton City" was a dozen kilometers away.

Night, quiet and quiet.

In the grass by the roadside, there are "squeaking" insects. The faint green eyes of a monster of a wolf or something lit up in the forest, looking at the steel monster that was slowly passing by.

The orange lights lit up in the moving castle, and the maids prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Suren and Ekaterina are having dinner.

The lives of high-ranking nobles are exquisite to the extreme. Even the meals during travel are extremely rich, including appetizers, main meals, desserts, and red wine.

The two ate, chatted about irrelevant topics, and occasionally looked at the starry sky.

As if he didn't know the distant hillside, a cloaked man hiding in the darkness was holding up a binoculars and gnashing his teeth watching this warm scene. His bloodshot eyes were already full of twisted and jealous flames.

Suddenly, the castle stopped.

The driver in the cockpit suddenly shouted: "Miss, a body was found beside the road!"

Su Lun and Ekaterina looked at each other, and immediately knew that the young William had made a move.

Knowing that it was an assassination, there was no need for bodyguards to die in vain in a battle of this level. Su Lun stood up and said directly: "You wait here, I'll go down and have a look."

"Um."

Ekaterina nodded calmly.

While speaking, she was playing with a few beautiful small meteorites in her hands.

Su Lun said hello, carrying a black umbrella, and appeared outside the car in a teleport.

He looked at a corpse dressed as a farmer on the ground, and the identification showed that it was [a corpse cursed with voodoo].

Su Lun frowned slightly.

There seems to be a small village on the hillside not far away, but there is no soul fluctuation of living people in my perception.

The moment he teleported out of the car, the black crow on his shoulder called softly, issuing a warning.

Su Lun's pupils shrank slightly, and immediately knew that someone was sneaking up: "Here we come!"
