Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 517 Ekaterina Became Emperor?

Su Lun wanted to recruit these mountain dwarves.

High-level puppets have higher and higher requirements for skills. War workshops can meet the mass production of the assembly line, but they are not enough in the high-level field at present.

And it's not just that he needs this group of "senior blacksmith" craftsmen per capita, but also because Liming also needs it.

Now that the plane invasion is a foregone conclusion, the alchemy plane has reached the most critical moment, and it is necessary to accumulate strength to meet the intensified war.

Su Lun stripped a lot of information from the memories of those people on the plane of the gods. He is now very sure that the invasion of the plane has almost only one result in the end, and that is to be enslaved by the gods of the other plane.

All the aborigines became believers in the gods of the heavenly plane, so that they could survive.

Cannot be transformed into a believer, only a dead end.

This needs to be changed to another plane, maybe it's just to tear down the old statue of the gods and replace it with a new difference.

But for the alchemy plane, it is almost devastating.

Because alchemists have no belief in gods.

Their source of power is themselves and alchemy knowledge.

Whether it is the advanced system or the cultivation system, they all rely on their own understanding of the laws of the universe and the search for knowledge to obtain extraordinary power.

But in the plane of belief, the gods spread the idea to believers that the only source of extraordinary power is the gods.

If you want to gain extraordinary power, you can only devoutly believe in a certain god.

This is also why magic is prosperous on the plane of the gods, but the most basic machinery does not exist.

Because the believers firmly believe that everything is bestowed by the gods, even the four seasons, harvest, war, healing, partner... everything.

The Outer Gods do not allow "alchemy" to exist.

Because, this will shake their supreme authority.

When human beings can rely on alchemy to change their lives, the need for gods will decrease, and their beliefs will become weaker and weaker.

Therefore, in almost any plane of belief, this method of bypassing the gods to gain power is regarded as "taboo".

Similarly, once alchemists believe in a certain god, the entire alchemy system will collapse.

All alchemy knowledge, cultivation equipment, advancement, blood potion... will be abolished.

Su Lun himself didn't want to be a servant of any god, and his beliefs nourished him.

He never thought of giving up alchemy, a training system with an infinite upper limit.

Therefore, a battle to the death is inevitable.

Thinking from this aspect, he also understands Sir Isaac's mood when he wrote the famous line in his notebook: "Gods are, to a certain extent, just more advanced alchemy materials."

"So, this is the situation now. As you can see, the plane of the gods has been invaded on a large scale. There is a big secret hidden in the ground of the gods mountain, and there will be invaders looking for it in the future."

Su Lun didn't have any reservations, and told what he knew so far.

All the dwarves looked solemn when they heard this.

Although the mountain dwarves are isolated from the world and have no news, they can distinguish between good and bad human nature.

After this battle, they all knew that Su Lun was telling the truth.

Although the mountain dwarves are extremely powerful, they are not good at fighting.

They are just the best mining masters and blacksmiths.

It's like before a ten-thousand-person legal group came, and it could easily wipe out this ethnic group.

Now there is no room for curses, and they don't even have the means to die together in the end.

After speaking, the hall was silent for a long time.

The current dwarf king, Barrel Beo, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Thank you for sending back the heritage of my mountain dwarves for our ancestors. But I'm sorry, what you said is of great importance, and I still need to talk to the elders of the clan. A decision can only be made after we have discussed it.”

Su Lun was not surprised when he heard this, and said: "Of course. I will wait here for a day. If the nobles decide through discussion and are willing to restart the covenant, we will be allies who advance and retreat together in the future."

Having seen the superb forging skills of the Dwarf King Cannian before, he didn't want to give up this rare recruitment opportunity easily.

Hand forging may seem inefficient, but the quality is very good. Moreover, the method of forging is almost irreplaceable in some aspects, such as advanced enchanting, coating, inscriptions, etc., which are far from being achieved by modern mechanical technology.

It just makes up for the needs of high-level puppets and Dawn magic armor.

Su Lun watched the dwarf want to discuss, and didn't plan to stay here.

The dwarf king Barrel Beo nodded, and responded: "In any case, we will give you a result of the discussion in a day's time."

Su Lun didn't say any more, turned around and left the hall with No. 19, and went to the depths of the mine.

Now the cursed space covering the dungeon is gone, and there is no danger, you can go anywhere.

Su Lun and No. 19 went all the way down.

This road is the place where I met the dwarf king Resentment in the cursed space.

Su Lun was still curious about what secrets were hidden underground.

Not long after they walked, they saw the endless dark spiral staircase again.

"Really?"

Su Lun is also very curious that such a magical "endless staircase" really exists in real space.

He has sacrificed [Ouroboros Time-Space Circle] now, and his ability to sense space is extremely strong. Even so, he perceives the stairs as if they are endless.

There are obviously more advanced spatial laws here.

After observing for a while and seeing no danger, Su Lun carefully walked down with the lucky charm No. 19.

After walking all the way for half an hour, I still haven't seen the end.

This staircase seems to lead to the deepest part of the ground.

The perception of space has become chaotic, and Su Lun even felt that they were no longer in the alchemy plane.

But there was no danger, so he just kept walking.

While walking, No. 19 suddenly found something on a flight of stairs, and whispered, "Su Lun, look quickly."

Su Lun looked over, and there was a sentence on the stone steps: "You need to recite a mantra to see the truth."

"Spell?"

Su Lun saw a flash of inspiration in his mind, and instantly thought of something.

Alchemists don't have any fancy spells, the only one is common.

He thought and recited: "Follow the law of equal exchange of all things, praise the glory of the original creator, and use alchemy to witness the miracle of creation."

Then, the moment the voice just fell, suddenly, the endless steps in space perception seemed to come to an end.

"Huh"

Su Lun instantly noticed the strangeness, and after a little thought, he also figured it out.

This is definitely not a simple voice-activated ban.

Spells are things that contain beliefs. If you are not religious, you will not get a response.

This spell points to the "primordial creator" believed by alchemists.

In other words, if you are not an alchemist, even if you recite it, you will not be able to trigger the restriction.

When Su Lun saw this, he knew that the secret below was left by a certain great alchemist to future generations.

Number 19 looked at Su Lun and hesitated for a moment, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay."

Su Lun explained his conjecture, and smiled slightly: "The senior who created this space seems to have left something behind. This restriction will be very unfriendly to believers in God."

"oh."

No. 19 always felt that when he was with Su Lun, he would always be compared with his own brain that was not very easy to use.

He is a warrior born for battle, so leave the brains to your partners.

She shrugged, taking it as her own lucky charm with peace of mind.

After chanting the spell, the two went down all the way, and this time they reached the bottom very quickly.

In front of him was a black iron gate 100 meters high.

There are some very special symbols carved on the door.

Number nineteen had already closed his eyes, and Su Lun only had his left eye open.

Because he had seen a similar gate in the sea ruins before, the undersea tomb where a sea god was buried also had such an oversized golden gate.

Su Lun didn't understand it before, but after harvesting the professional knowledge of [Grave Digger], he knew that this is a top-level burial ground for gods.

The gate represents the rank of the gods, and also seals the overflowing power of chaotic laws.

The glyphs on the huge black iron pillars around are very characteristic of the dwarves, probably the ancestors of the mountain dwarves built this cemetery.

When Su Lun saw the black iron gate, he guessed in his heart: "Is it true that a god was buried? Maybe it was the "Time Wanderer" Andreas Libavius? "

It doesn't matter who it is.

Importantly, the specifications of this mausoleum are very high.

However, when he was staring at the giant black iron gate, suddenly, the time in his field of vision seemed to be distorted, forming a figure.

He saw it because he understood the law of time.

"Time warped?"

Now that Su Lun has comprehended a certain law of time, he immediately knows what the scene in front of him is.

Without soul fluctuations, it is not a creature in normal cognition.

It's like a blurred light, even if you can't see clearly, you can still see that this is an old man dressed in white elders.

The old man was on the side of the black iron door, and he carved a line of words with his fingers: "The pattern of ouroboros points to the ultimate mystery of alchemy. With the passage of time, we can see the appearance of truth."

Seeing the handwriting, Su Lun immediately frowned.

Dimly seemed to understand something, but it seemed that he didn't understand it at all.

After this row of handwriting, He drew a pattern of ouroboros.

Su Lun saw that this was the pattern of [Ouroboros Space-Time Circle] in his hand!

He immediately guessed the identity of the light and shadow.

The old man with distorted light and shadow was muttering something while drawing.

"When I was young, I grasped the mysteries of the power of time and space. At that time, I thought about how interesting it would be if I could carve an epitaph on my tombstone."

"Every living being is a prisoner of time. Life is like a timeline divided into small grids, one grid at a time. Because of the limited life, no one can see the whole picture of time. This is the mystery of time."

"Because of time, everything has meaning to a certain extent."

"."

Su Lun was shocked when he heard it.

A few simple words give people a sense of enlightenment, as if they have revealed the true meaning of time.

He thought this light and shadow was some afterimage.

However, what is even more amazing is that after the old man thought about it, he turned his head and saw him, and said, "Hello, the 'time is looking after' on the future timeline."

Silence is obviously not a good response, Su Lun asked directly: "Senior, can you see me?"

The old man smiled: "Haven't you ever thought that you must ask this question before I see you? I'm just responding to a person who will appear on this timeline and who can see me. "

"."

Su Lun listened thoughtfully.

He asked again: "Senior, are you Master Andreas?"

The figure smiled, as if acquiescing, and asked instead: "Do you want to ask me if I'm dead?"

Su Lun was even more puzzled.

This is not a curse space, without any remnants, what form does "He" exist in?

The old man explained, "My story line ended long ago when your story line started. But, am I really dead? It's like when you read a novel, a character dies in his story line. So, when you read this storybook again, that character is still alive. It is destined to die, but in its timeline, it is still alive and has never changed. Do you think this is the same as a human life ? From birth, doomed to die."

"The mystery of time lies in whether you are the one who has the ability to reopen the novel and re-read it. If not, you are just one of the mortal beings in the storybook."

"You can see the shadow of time I left behind, then congratulations. You have the qualification to see the truth."

"I wandered in time, and appearing on this timeline is just a thought I want to chatter about."

"."

The moment Su Lun heard these words, Su Lun stood on the spot like a lightning strike.

Only when you really understand some laws of time can you truly understand the essence of the laws of time!

Like a guiding light, people can see the direction from the eternal night.

After saying these words, the light and shadow of the old man suddenly disappeared.

All that remained was the huge black iron gate and the words engraved on the gate.

"Time is an Ouroboros time traveler, he can travel in the long river of time"

Su Lun muttered to himself, as if he had realized something.

So here comes the problem.

Is the person I saw just now dead or not?

With the factor of time, he suddenly felt that death could not be defined so simply.

Probably because Su Lun murmured a few words to himself, and No. 19 beside him said very vigilantly, "Su Lun, are you alright?"

Su Lun asked suspiciously, "Didn't you hear what someone said just now?"

The face of No. 19 became even more alert, and he repeated: "No. Just now you said, 'Senior, you can see me', and also said, 'Senior, you are Master Andreas'."

Su Lun laughed and suddenly understood, "Let's go, I'm going back, and I will explain to you slowly."

No. 19 frowned, and continued: "Are you all right?"

Su Lun didn't know that he was the only one who saw and heard the phantom of time, and said, "It's really all right."

As he spoke, he put his arms around No. 19's mechanical waist, teleported, and appeared on the surface.

The strange and indescribable surroundings dared to disappear, and Number 19 dared to open his eyes. She looked at the surrounding forest and confirmed it, only then did she know that it had really come out.

The two walked in the jungle, Su Lun smiled and explained to her what happened just now.

It was only then that Number Nineteen understood what had happened, and was surprised from time to time.

But she didn't understand the mystery of time, and she didn't know what Su Lun felt.

She thought for a while and asked, "So... there is really a god's tomb in the ground? Did you come out without looking around?"

"yes."

Su Lun smiled, and said again: "I've already got what I deserve, so there's no need to stay any longer. As for the other treasures, I can't take them with me now."

No. 19 raised her eyebrows and said nothing.

Today's weather is fine, the sun shines into the forest like a golden ribbon.

Su Lun had to wait for the result of the dwarves' discussion, so he had to wait another day.

Suddenly there was no sense of urgency, and the two walked away a little bored.

While walking, Su Lun suddenly thought of something, and said, "By the way, try my new ability!"

Number nineteen glanced at him and cast a questioning look, "?"

"I'm going to go to Sister Qianjo to try a new technique."

Su Lun smiled slightly, picked up the communication ring, and asked directly, "Sister Qiantiao, where are you now?"

In the next second, a response came from the communicator: "Hey, are you done? It's in the 'Zambula Iron Falls Province' in the south of Mafa. Didn't you say a scene of a plane passage before, Mafa? The military has found the exact coordinates. It’s been a lively fight these days.”

When Su Lun heard it, it seemed that something important had happened, "Oh, is it convenient for you now? I'll come and find you."

As soon as the words came out, Qiantiao came to reply lazily: "Is there any inconvenience. Come if you want."

"good."

Su Lun listened, confirmed the position of the thousand space coordinates, and quickly condensed the Warlock Seal with his hands.

In an instant, a super-large seven-pointed star array lit up under his feet.

There are not enough ranks, so we can only raise energy.

In addition to the ultra-high space affinity brought by the ring, [Isaac's Giant Heart] also provides the massive energy required for ultra-long-distance transmission.

On the other hand, Zambula Iron Falls Province in the south of Marfa, deep in the mountains.

In the uninhabited mountain forest, the scenery is extremely beautiful, and there is a clear spring flowing here.

The spring water is full of white gas, which is a rare high-quality hot spring.

In the spring water, two graceful figures were soaking.

"What's wrong?"

"Boy Su Lun said he was coming."

"Oh? Isn't he a dwarf tribe in the depths of the Warcraft Mountains, coming to the south?"

"Who knows."

"."

After fighting fiercely for several days, I finally found a natural hot spring, where Qianjo was soaking.

The clothes are hanging on the branch beside it, and the knife is placed by the spring pool.

She was naked and soaked comfortably in the water.

The pool is not big, and there is a graceful figure in it.

After the conversation between the two, they suddenly opened their eyes together, looking at the space distortion that suddenly formed a few meters away.

But after sensing who it was, the vigilance in the eyes of the two of them dissipated instantly, and they returned to relaxed expressions.

Chijo just glanced at it, then continued to lie down with her eyes closed and enjoy the moisture of the hot spring.

Hearing the sound of footsteps landing, she just murmured slightly in surprise: "Why did you come here so soon, boy?"

The person who came was none other than Su Lun who was teleported from space.

From the Warcraft Forest to here, it is more than two thousand kilometers.

He didn't expect it to be transmitted so smoothly.

"Ah, didn't I tell you before, I got a space treasure, and then tried the ultra-long-distance space displacement, and it came here unexpectedly."

Su Lun echoed a sentence, and his tone was faintly excited.

It's the first time I use this ultra-long-distance space plane, and I feel very good.

Although the consumption of dark spiritual power is a bit scary, but with the heart of alchemy, the recovery is also extremely fast.

With this ability, it will be convenient to go anywhere in the future.

While Su Lun spoke, he also had a panoramic view of the surrounding environment for a moment.

Surrounded by dense pine forests, covered with a layer of snow.

There happened to be a steaming clear spring in the forest.

Su Lun was at the edge of the spring, and he was not surprised to see Qianjo, because Ben came along the coordinates of the crystal pendant on her neck.

But looking at the other person in the pool, he was very surprised and called out: "Senior Sister?"

Mr. Jing responded with a slight smile, "Yes."

Su Lun asked curiously, "Sister, why are you here? Didn't you stay in Xenodia Province before?"

Mr. Jing responded indifferently: "The plane channel has been discovered, and the Marfa military has fought many battles with those plane mages. The situation here is not optimistic, so I came to take a look."

"oh?"

Su Lun frowned when he heard this.

No wonder there was a smell of blood in his nostrils, which came from the clothes and knives hanging on the side.

From this point of view, Qianjo has killed quite a few people recently.

Clothes hang from the branches inside and out, though.

Looking again, the gambling-addicted young woman in the hot spring pool was indeed naked.

Under the waves, it is graceful and graceful, and it can be seen at a glance.

She didn't seem to mind at all, she was at ease.

Su Lun glanced at Mr. Jing beside him again from the corner of his eye, and said with a smile, "Wow, Senior Sister has such a good figure."

Mr. Jing has never lost a classical and elegant temperament. Even wearing a gauze dress as thin as a cicada's wings, the exquisite figure is fully displayed, but it is charming and not vulgar, and it also gives people a feeling of green lotus and refined.

She listened to Su Lun's compliment and smiled.

Instead, Qianjo said with a look of disgust: "Boy Su Lun, have you not bathed for a long time? Your body smells sour."

As she said that, she invited without hesitation: "Come down and go clubbing."

"OK."

Su Lun thought about it, since he set off to adventure in the Warcraft Mountains, he hasn't showered for more than a month.

He also disappeared, took off his clothes and prepared to go into the water, and asked casually: "Sister Qiantiao, has any major incident happened in the two empires recently?"

Because he knew he was advancing, no one bothered him.

The news has been blocked for a long time. I wanted to hear what new things happened, but I didn't expect to eat melons and eat myself.

Qianjo responded lazily: "The most exciting thing is the war on Mafa's side. There is nothing to say, just all kinds of tragic offensive and defensive battles. The magic group in the plane of the gods is very strong."

Su Lun was not surprised to hear these contents.

If you find the plane channel, you must fight and kill.

Unexpectedly, Qiantiao suddenly changed the subject, and said jokingly again in his tone: "Also... three days ago, your wife, Ekaterina Lance, proclaimed herself emperor in Lu Ying. "

"???"

When Su Lun heard this, his undressing froze.

The reflex arc seemed to be very long, and he was stunned for a moment before he realized what he had just heard.

But it was completely unbelievable with a face full of question marks.

Ekaterina became emperor?

What is her name?

It's only been a few months, what am I missing?

No matter what, Su Lun felt that this shouldn't be the case!
