Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 13 The world of the cave

a few days later.

A complicated cave passage, in a dark pit.

Su Lun kept his breathing as low as possible, and his eyes were looking down at hundreds of meters away.

There, there was a wandering humanoid monster, hunting aimlessly in the cave.

It still has some human clothes and equipment on it, but it has completely turned into a swollen monster like a giant.

Su Lun looked at the monster, his finger on the trigger of the musket loaded with alchemical bullets.

If you come here, it will blow its head with one shot.

【Distorted Human】

Detailed explanation: The monster that can't bear the curse power erodes the human distortion and has a strong auditory perception. They don't have much intelligence, only the instinct to hunt and kill.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the monster to wander off in the other direction, not near where Su Lun was hiding.

Su Lun also breathed a sigh of relief: "How many strange creatures are there in the ground?"

This is not the first time he has encountered such a monster.

Three days ago, when he came out of the secret passage, he encountered one.

Because at that time, I didn't know the sinister nature of this burrow, and I didn't know that the fine sound of walking and stepping on stones would also attract such a monster with extremely sensitive hearing.

Fortunately, after his eyesight increased, he found it in time.

This thing came on a rampage like Roshan, and almost didn't give him GG on the spot.

Aberration monsters can't get close at all, otherwise, if you break a wound, you can collapse your disgusting rotten flesh.

Very corrosive and foul smelling.

Ordinary bullets are not much use at all, hitting it is like hitting a puddle of mud.

"Boer~" bubbled up, but it didn't do anything.

Fortunately, Su Lun was prepared and consumed a few of those "high-explosive" alchemy bullets.

With precise shooting, it exploded violently like a howitzer, and the monster was smashed into pieces.

But the number of alchemy bullets on him is not many, and these caves are not the only monsters of this kind.

If he hadn't awakened the "eye of all knowing", his night vision ability would have been greatly enhanced. Relying on the simple alchemy night vision device alone, he would have died many times along the way.

Su Lun thought that this cave world was a large mine or a cave.

But the area of ​​the underground space is unbelievable. Not only are there the remains of human cities, but there is also a complete ecosystem underground, with all kinds of animals, plants, and monsters hiding in dark corners.

Have you ever seen a fluorescent mushroom forest dozens of meters high?

Have you ever seen a dinosaur-sized lizard?

Have you ever seen a red-eyed mouse like a locust crossing?

Have you ever seen a centipede that is more than ten meters long and has a thousand legs?

Have you ever seen a giant tentacle monster with sarcomas and dense eyeballs on one side of the rock wall?

Anyway, Su Lun had never seen him in his last life. In just a few days, a lot of strange knowledge had been added to his mind. Under the identification of "The Eye of Omniscience", I also met many strange creatures.

Most of these crypt creatures are bizarre and disgusting, and they feel like post-nuclear deformities.

This living environment is extremely bad for human beings!

Su Lun was afraid that the monster hadn't gone far, so he simply stayed in the pit for a while to replenish food and water.

"Judging from the map found in the bald head storage ring, it should be a B-level area with a high frequency of human activities. Maybe you can meet other hunting groups, it is best to ask someone to ask about the situation first."

Su Lun looked at the marked map, checked the food and water reserves, and estimated that his rations were probably not enough for the human gathering city at the end of the map.

Alone, he has always been cautious, and did not dare to shoot and kill those crypt creatures at will, for fear of causing more trouble.

The experience of the past few days has also allowed him to gradually have a more accurate concept of this mysterious world with extraordinary power.

There is such a huge city ruin in the underground world, which means that a large number of human beings lived here thousands of years ago.

Moreover, the bald Ivan and the others are not miners. That team seems to be a "hunting team" that is dedicated to taking risks in the burrows and searching for supplies.

The pallor of their complexion was not the result of blood alone, but the pallor that had not been exposed to sunlight for a long time.

Su Lun suspected that even the destination he was going to was not on the ground, but underground.

However, this is all speculation.

In a few days, if he can survive to the "destination", it will probably be clear.

After a while, the satiety of the food made Su Lun feel that the glycogen was sufficient and he could move on again.

At this time, he suddenly thought of something, and took out the [Pestoia's brooch] that was placed in the storage ring before.

For the past few days, Su Lun has been wondering what the unknown information on the brooch shows "???".

The mystery of Pestoya's burning death has always puzzled him.

An abandoned manor that has been abandoned for thousands of years, a ghost species, a story with obvious doubts.

It was as if a piece of the puzzle was missing a "crucial link".

Su Lun always had a gut feeling that there was something wrong with this brooch.

And there are many strange supernatural forces in this world, not sure is a big trouble.

If you don't know, just be confused.

But since there was doubt, Su Lun didn't plan to keep this "potential thunderstorm" thing around.

Now that he is far enough away from the manor, he is no longer worried that something bad will be triggered.

Without much hesitation, Su Lun dug a hole in the stone pit, then buried the brooch and marked it.

Thinking that if there is no problem, he will dig it out later when his cognition can identify the hidden information on it.

He didn't know, not long after it was buried, a certain will in the brooch woke up, and a babble as if from the abyss sounded, trembling slightly.

Unbeknownst to Su Lun, just a few days after he left "Stormwind Manor" from that secret route, a team of men in black came quietly.

In the dilapidated manor, a blond young man in a pink suit was drinking coffee leisurely. It seems that the gloomy and terrifying atmosphere in front of him has long been commonplace, and it did not affect his mood at all.

Not long after, the blond youth's subordinates had violently broken through the "cursed space" full of weird dolls.

A strong man in a black suit came over with a box and reported: "Master Evan, there is a 'ghost species' in the cursed space in this manor, and we have killed it."

The strong man speaks very lightly, and seems to be very experienced in dealing with this kind of thing.

After a pause, he opened the box to show the loot, and said, "This is the 'cursed object' found after killing the strange thing, and it should be the source of the cursed space. Master Nick has already identified, the cursed object's The quality is very high and the utility is very good.”

The blond boy glanced at the black butterfly brooch in the box. Seeing that it was a female product, he was not interested. He waved his hand and said, "Miss Teresa likes to collect these accessories and send them to her mansion after returning."

The strong man in the suit respectfully said, "Yes, young master."

This group of people seemed to have the same "treasure map" of Su Lun, and they quickly found the underground passage, then through the labyrinth, to the broken altar.

The blond boy is still looking forward to the legendary remains of the "Twilight Cross Society", the most mysterious and powerful alchemy organization in the last era, which shocked the clan elders. He imagined that if there was such an altar as the deciphered content recorded in the manuscript, then he might be able to awaken a legendary supernatural ability.

Unexpectedly, I heard a "bad news" soon after.

The captain of the guard in the suit came over with a slightly ugly face, and reported: "Master, we have verified the basement, and it does match what was deciphered in the [Isaac Alchemy Manuscript]. But the ancient altar in the secret room has been destroyed, There is no way to perform sacrificial rituals at all. And”

The blond youth vaguely felt that he would hear something bad: "And what?"

The brawny man in a suit said: "Also, after our careful investigation, we found that there are recent traces of human activities in the basement. Therefore, we judge that the altar may have been triggered by someone."

Hearing this, the blond young man said angrily: "It's so possible! We are the only ones who know this information!"

After missing the huge gap with the treasure, he suddenly thought of something and said angrily: "Damn it! That old guy must be making trouble!"

"What about the ancient city ruins over there?"

"People have been sent to investigate, but no one has come back alive to make a preliminary judgment. The danger level is at least 'red'."

On the other hand, Su Lun finally met a living person after walking for a few days.
