Helping each other with countless me
Chapter 281 Flesh and blood are weak, and machinery ascends
A bold and reckless young man with strong strength.
Andrew looked at the image in front of him and said lightly.
Pallas City
City Lord's Mansion
This is the core of Pallas City and its surrounding 147 towns and villages.
Located on a tributary of the Raven River that runs through the northern continent, it can go south or east through this tributary, and it is considered to be on a major transportation route.
Therefore, this place has become an important strategic point in the empire's steam strategy.
Therefore, he, Lusen Andrew, a famous war knight in Char, was appointed by the king to be the city lord here.
However, what happened today once again proved one thing, that the steam revolution envisioned by His Majesty the King may not develop as steadily as he imagined.
The reason is the extraordinary.
In this world, the birth of extraordinary people can have a fixed inheritance, such as those organizations that have been passed down for hundreds and thousands of years. They have perfect means of advancement, power systems, combat systems, and systems to deal with other extraordinary forces.
But such organizations also have a lot of assets.
This is their weakness, they are easy to control.
It is these extraordinary people who suddenly appeared among the people that are difficult to control.
For example, the little guy who is currently in the sky, through the airship, forcibly spreads the name of a guardian spirit throughout the radiation range of the entire Pallas City.
Through the radar network installed on each airship, he can capture the traces of the other party. Although this is not a real picture, the information is actually more complete.
So, he gave the comment just now.
This little guy is undoubtedly the representative of the orthodox random awakening of extraordinary power, according to his own investigation and the traces he left.
A few days ago, he was still a beggar in another city.
But now, he can already face the steam weapons of the airship head-on.
Well, this is nothing.
As the city lord, he can do it as well.
The point is, the plan for all extraordinary people.
If the empire wants to rise and maximize the steam revolution, the most important problem to deal with is the extraordinary power.
How to control these extraordinary powers.
It is impossible to eliminate them all, unless you kill all humans.
Otherwise, they will grow like fruits, one crop after another, and the more cruelly you suppress them, the more fiercely the extraordinary people born in this environment will resist, and then one day, an unreasonable extraordinary person will kill everything in the past at the fastest speed.
This is not a story.
This is something that has already happened.
How do you think the empire was established?
The first king of Char is that person.
Therefore, the empire has always been ambiguous in its attitude towards extraordinary people, but the first king knows this very well. If you force it, it will have a counterproductive effect.
However, when the great alchemist Watt merged the steam engine with extraordinary power.
The wheel of time began to roll.
All walks of life, with the intervention of steam engines, have burst out with vigorous vitality, but at the same time, various forces and organizations with extraordinary people as the core have also become active and seriously affected the order of this country.
So what should be done?
At present, the answer given by the king he is loyal to, Char VI, is.
The state cannot personally go out to stir up hatred.
To let the extraordinary people fight each other, what the state has to do is to demarcate an area for them to fight.
Or to be more precise, the state has to play a morally tenable role here.
We don’t care about the fights between extraordinary people, but ordinary people cannot be involved.
Originally, capitalists should also be included here.
But it was crossed out by the king.
The reason is also very simple. Capitalists have always been in a circle with extraordinary forces. You are in that circle.
Of course, the result of doing this is that the empire has to give up some of its interests, and this part of the interest is that the state will not interfere with the supervision of capitalists in their research on extraordinary events.
It sounds like a risky plan, but on the contrary, it is the safest, because if you do research, you need people, and if you need people, the state can insert people.
What the state fears is never such an organization, because all your progress is under the eyes of the state.
What the country fears is those extraordinary people who suddenly appear.
So, where do these extraordinary people come from?
The National Alchemy Association seems to have made some progress.
In short, some of them are really born with unique physical conditions.
But this is a very small number.
The real majority are the extraordinary characteristics of extraordinary people.
That is, the so-called souls of extraordinary people.
After they die, their souls turn into characteristics and float between heaven and earth. They will randomly attach to the lucky ones, allowing them to gain powerful power. Then, after the lucky ones die, the characteristics will continue to float, over and over again.
Still taking the example of the boy, after he awakened his superpowers, he was basically a different person. His knowledge reserves and conversation are not what an uneducated beggar should have.
Of course, I'm getting off topic.
Those things are not his responsibility. As the mayor of this city appointed by the king, his responsibility is to maintain order.
That is, perfect and unwavering execution of the order of Char VII.
——
"Her name is Holo, and she is the Wolf of Harvest."
"Her name is Holo, and she is the Wolf of Harvest."
Above Pallas, this sentence is repeated continuously, as if it is noise.
Below the airship is Holo's image, which is a recording technology achieved through some new alchemy.
"Are you sure they are still on the airship?"
"Yes, our people have been monitoring."
On the ground, a man with golden hair looked up at the airship in the sky.
He and the dead Holland are both adopted sons of Mr. Saruman.
Coming here, of course, is to relieve the crisis for Mr. Saruman.
They have a professional team and can easily analyze the other party's strategic purpose.
Gather enough power for the guardian spirit, and then distort the cognition of others to carry out a targeted assassination of Mr. Saruman.
Although he thought this plan was impossible to succeed, because every inch of land where Mr. Saruman lived contained forbidden magic stones, but there was a folk saying in the Char Empire that only a robber for a thousand days could stop a robber for a thousand days.
So, they naturally had to kill the danger in advance.
"Fire."
"Yes!"
After receiving the order from the blond man, a steam cannon was pushed out.
The metal cannon body shone coldly in the sun.
This thing was originally used to deal with the enemy's defense barrier. It has a special alchemical shell and is a complete contraband.
However, the only reason why a thing is a contraband is that you didn't pay enough, at least in Char.
So, Saruman spent a high price to get one from the city defense army.
And it was equipped with a high concentration of forbidden magic bombs.
Once this bomb explodes, within its explosion range, all extraordinary powers will be completely wiped out. Even if your body has strong defense, it is useless, because this defense itself is also a manifestation of extraordinary power.
The only price is that once the shell is launched, the airship will explode in the sky and countless debris will fall.
But it doesn't matter, these can all be settled with money.
"Fire!"
"Bang!"
A muffled sound, yes, a muffled sound.
This is why Saruman looks fearless.
The launch of this steam cannon relies on the steam pressure with extraordinary properties. Not only is the initial launch speed fast, but the sound is also not loud. If you don't pay attention, no one will notice it at all.
Three seconds later.
In the sky, the airship that was shouting Holo's name there exploded instantly.
Under the destruction of the forbidden magic bomb, it seemed that there was a small sun in the sky.
Then came the hot wind, blowing almost half of Pallas City from top to bottom.
Then, countless debris scattered and fell to the ground.
"Is he dead?"
The blond man asked.
"I'm observing."
Aside, a wizard who also mastered the Eagle Eye Technique stared at the sky, his eyes glowing with blue light, which was a manifestation of the Eagle Eye Technique being brought to the extreme.
After a long time, the dust cleared.
"Nothing, unless the other party has the ability to transfer instantly, otherwise, it should be reduced to ashes."
"Do a good job of post-war search."
After a moment of silence, the blond man said.
"Yes!"
——
Forbidden Magic Castle.
The blond man met Sarumen.
A man who was almost sixty years old, but he looked only forty years old, because he had been studying how to increase his lifespan.
As one of the earliest new nobles, he stood at the forefront and accumulated a lot of wealth.
At the same time, he had an excellent vision.
At the beginning of the empire's promotion of steam engines, he bet all his assets, and since then, he has been completely financially free.
After that, his main purpose in life was to increase his lifespan and gain extraordinary power.
After all, he also knew that without enough power to protect your wealth, the so-called rich and the so-called nobles were nothing more than pigs in the eyes of power.
In fact, the reason why he spent so much money to build all this was, in the final analysis, for this.
"Godfather, according to our search, the other party should be completely dead, and the crisis should be resolved, so, what should we do about Sophia in the Rose Tavern?"
"Don't worry about him."
Saruman shook his head.
"That woman has a lot of power behind her. Don't provoke her unless necessary."
"Yes."
"You go down."
"Yes."
The blond man turned and walked out.
Then, a hand pierced his chest directly, and a beating heart was dug out directly, and it was crushed with a puff.
"Hey? Interesting, how did you find out?"
The blond man, no, it should be Li Zhongren, slowly turned around and looked at Saruman who had pulled his hand out of his chest and stepped back a dozen steps, and asked curiously.
"I asked myself, my disguise should not be a big problem, after all, I have also obtained the memory of your adopted son through Holo's power."
"Intuition."
Saruman shook the blood off his hands and looked at Li Zhongren's chest. It was visible to the naked eye that his heart was growing again and the wound was healing at a very fast speed. This was his Forbidden Magic Castle. The room and even the air were filled with Forbidden Magic Dust.
"You are amazing. You can still maintain extraordinary power here? How did you do it?"
"Then tell me first, how did you do it?"
Li Zhongren shook his neck. The wound on his chest had completely healed.
"One hand directly penetrated a person's sternum. This is not something a sixty-year-old man can do."
"Ha."
Saruman smiled and narrowed his eyes.
"Flesh and blood are weak, and machinery ascends!!"
As he spoke, he rushed directly towards Li Zhongren. His speed and strength were so fast that he didn't look like a sixty-year-old man, but like a group of galloping elephants!
"Bang!"
Faced with such a speed, Li Zhongren was directly knocked out and hit the wall heavily. His chest collapsed directly.
But immediately, these collapsed chests and broken limbs healed quickly.
This scene made Saruman narrow his eyes slightly.
This is not a habit, but he is analyzing.
What he called the weakness of flesh and blood and the ascension of machinery are not just empty words.
This is a statement.
In the sixth year of his research on the extraordinary, a religion claiming to be the mechanical sect found him and persuaded him.
So, he allowed himself to be transformed.
Now he only looks like a human on the outside, but in fact, he has become a machine inside, and the power of this machine will not be disturbed by the forbidden magic stone, and at the same time, it also gives him the power of a monster.
But as cautious as he is, even so, he will not leave his castle at will, because this transformation is not perfect.
He needs to replenish energy regularly, and for those means targeting the soul, he cannot avoid leaving here.
Of course, the benefits of all this are
He possessed powerful strength and some special alchemy methods, such as his eyes, which could analyze the other party's intelligence. This was also the reason why he discovered that the blond man in front of him was no longer his adopted son.
However, now, the other party's situation made him a little strange.
Under the influence of the forbidden magic stone, the other party's body was the body of an ordinary person, but he had extraordinary attributes, this super strong self-healing ability.
"Interesting, interesting"
After a moment, Saruman's hesitation turned into surprise.
This vigorous vitality was exactly what he needed.
Because the biggest constraint of the Mechanic Cult now is that it cannot complete the separation of the soul from the brain. In other words, his brain is still a flesh and blood body, and the flesh and blood brain, even if it is soaked in a special solution, can only live for about two hundred years at most.
If he can find the reason why this man can heal quickly, does it mean that he can live forever?
