Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 13 Catacombs World

After a few days.

Complicated crypt passages, in a dark pit.

Su Lun suppressed his breathing as much as possible, but his eyes were looking solemnly hundreds of meters away.

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

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

Su Lun looked at the monster, and his finger was already on the trigger of the musket filled with alchemy bullets.

As long as it comes over, it will blow its head off with a single shot.

【Deformed Human】

Detailed Explanation: A monster that can't bear the power of the curse to erode human beings and become deformed. It has a strong auditory perception. They don't have much intelligence, only the instinct of hunting and killing.

Fortunately, not long after, the monster wandered away in another direction, and did not approach Su Lun's hiding place.

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 walked out of the secret passage, he met one end.

Because at that time, I didn't know the danger of this cave, and I didn't know that the sound of walking and stepping on rocks would also attract such a monster with extremely sensitive hearing.

Fortunately, after his vision improved, he found it in time.

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

The aberration monster can't get close at all, otherwise a casual wound will smash your disgusting rotting flesh.

Very corrosive and smelly.

Ordinary bullets are useless at all, hitting it is like hitting it in a puddle of mud.

"Bo'er~" made a fuss, but it didn't work.

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

The precise shooting, which exploded violently like a howitzer, beat the monster to pieces.

But the number of alchemy bullets on him is not many, and this kind of monster is not the only one in these caves.

If he hadn't awakened the "Pupil of All Knowledge", his night vision ability would have been greatly enhanced. Just relying on the crude alchemy night vision device, he would have died many times along the way.

Su Lun thought that the Catacomb World was a large mine, or a cave.

But the size of the underground space is unbelievably large. Not only are there human city remains, but there is also a complete ecosystem underground. Various animals, plants, and monsters are hidden in dark corners.

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

Ever seen a lizard the size of a dinosaur?

Have you ever seen a red-eyed mouse that looks like a locust crossing the border?

More than ten meters long, have you ever seen a centipede with a thousand legs?

Have you ever seen a huge tentacle monster with a rock wall full of tumors and dense eyeballs?

Anyway, Su Lun has never seen it in his previous life. In just a few days, a lot of strange knowledge has been added to his mind. Under the identification of the "Pupil of Omniscience", I also met many strange creatures.

Most of these crypt creatures are grotesque and disgusting, it feels like a post-nuclear deformity creature

This living environment is extremely harsh for human beings!

Su Lun was afraid that the monster would not go far, so he simply stayed in the pit for a while to replenish food and water.

"Judging from the map found in the bald storage ring, we should be in a B-level area with high frequency of human activities. Maybe we can meet other hunting groups. It's best to find 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 probably could not last the end of the map in the human gathering city.

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

The experience of the past few days 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 humans lived here thousands of years ago.

Moreover, the bald Ivan and the others are not miners. The team seems to be a "hunting team" that specializes in adventures in the crypt and searching for supplies.

The pallor of their complexion is not due to blood alone, but the pallor of having not been exposed to sunlight for a long time.

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

However, this is all speculation.

In a few days, if he can reach his "destination" alive, it will probably be clear.

Not long after, the satiety of the food made Su Lun feel that the glycogen was sufficient, and he could move on again.

But 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 is that shows "???".

The mystery of Pestoia's burning had always puzzled him.

An abandoned manor that has been abandoned for thousands of years, a ghost species, and an obviously questionable story.

It was as if a "critical piece" was missing from a puzzle.

Su Lun always had an intuition that there was something wrong with this brooch.

And there are many strange supernatural forces in this world, if they are not sure, it will be a big trouble.

If you don't know, just be confused.

But since he had doubts, Su Lun didn't intend to keep this "thunderstorm" thing with him.

Now that he was far enough away from the manor, he no longer worried about triggering something bad.

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

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

He didn't know that not long after it was buried, a certain will in the brooch woke up, and there was a whisper that seemed to come from the abyss, trembling slightly.

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

In the dilapidated manor, a blond young man in a pink suit is drinking coffee leisurely. It seemed that the eerie atmosphere in front of him had long been commonplace, and it didn't affect his mood at all.

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

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

The strong man spoke very easily and seemed to be very experienced in dealing with such things.

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

The blond boy glanced at the black butterfly brooch in the box. Seeing that it was a woman's item, he was not very interested. He waved his hand and said, "Miss Teresa likes to collect these accessories, and I will send them to her mansion when I go back."

The burly man in a suit said respectfully, "Yes, young master."

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

The blond boy is still looking forward to the legendary ruins about the most mysterious and powerful alchemy organization "Twilight Cross Society" in the last era, which shocked even the elders. He fantasizes that if the altar really exists as recorded in the manuscript and deciphered, then he may be able to awaken a legendary super talent ability.

Unexpectedly, I heard a "bad news" not long after.

The captain of the guard in the suit came over with a slightly ugly face, and reported: "Young Master, we have verified the basement, and it does match the content deciphered in [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript]. But the ancient altar in the secret room has been destroyed. There is no way to carry out the sacrificial ceremony again. And”

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

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

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

After the huge gap between missing the treasure, he suddenly thought of something, and said angrily: "Damn it! It must be that old guy playing tricks!"

"What about the ancient city ruins over there?"

"People have been sent to investigate, but no one came 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 more days.
