Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 138 "The Magician" Lloyd

The vendors in this stall are two wild hunters with red fox emblems on their clothes.

Su Lun knew this sign, which was the team logo of the large hunting group "Firefox Group" in Old Lingdun.

Various parchment scrolls and ancient books are displayed on their stalls.

Some are well preserved and look like they came out of the cursed space.

Some are tattered and incomplete, and should be unearthed ancient relics.

It looks like an ancient library has been found.

Seeing Su Lun stop, one of them picked up the scroll and greeted him: "Hey, brother, do you want to buy an alchemy scroll? The scroll of [Five Thunders and Booms] which recorded the rare lightning alchemy was once sold at the Old Lingdun Auction. I have offered a high price of 300,000 yuan, and I will take it for only 240,000 yuan. We belong to the 'Firefox Hunting Group', and our reputation is absolutely no problem. If you don't believe it, you can go through the Chamber of Commerce's appraisal channel."

Most of the scrolls were marked with the names of the spells. Although they were not allowed to open them, Su Lun used the Eye of Omniscience to identify them, and he was sure that these things were really good things.

However, the spell scroll was not what he wanted.

He looked at it and asked, "Are there any ancient books that record spiritual knowledge, or are there any books related to puppet masters?"

"These two classics are very biased."

Unexpectedly, when he asked this casually, the man seemed to have thought of something, "Wait. It seems there is."

He rummaged through the storage ring, took out a thick book, and said, "Take a look at this, don't you?"

Su Lun looked at it, and on the cover of the book was written "Introduction to Spirituality" in Old German, written by Joseph Dicher.

He asked, "Can I turn a few pages?"

"certainly."

The man didn't mind, so he handed over the classics and said, "This thing seems to be super-level knowledge, so I didn't show it."

Ultra-level knowledge is useless to ordinary people in Old Lingdon City, and no one buys it when it is displayed.

Probably only rich people in the inner city would buy some as antique decorations.

Su Lun read a few pages, which were some theoretical introductions to spiritual power, but not the secret method of cultivation.

But he was also going to buy it to have a look, maybe he could find some useful knowledge, so he asked, "How do you sell this book?"

The man said truthfully: "The members of our regiment just brought it out of the ruins last night. If no one buys it, we are going to deal with it to the big commercial firm in the inner city. They will send people to buy it every afternoon, and it will probably be able to buy it." Let’s sell it for 70,000 to 80,000 copies. If you want it, just give it the same price.”

Alchemy knowledge is very expensive, even if it is first-order knowledge, it is definitely more than this price.

But "ultra-level knowledge" is useless, and it is worthless instead.

"Yeah. I bought it."

The price is quite fair, Su Lun nodded, "Is there anything else?"

The man took out a few more classics and said: "There is nothing related to puppetry. But I still have a volume of esoteric-level alchemy fragments here, and some super-level knowledge. If you are interested, you can also read it for you. "

Su Lun took a look and bought a few more copies.

But he didn't buy spell scrolls, those things were expensive and required a lot of energy to learn, and they weren't suitable for his profession.

Some useful things were harvested at the first booth, and Su Lun felt that there might be some good things to be harvested in this market.

He continued to walk forward, and stayed at the booths he was interested in.

Most of the booths are various alchemy materials and inauguration materials.

The booths of those large hunting groups were even piled up like mountains, and it was unknown how many monsters were killed.

However, now that Su Lun is an advanced professional, he has no need for first-level materials.

Turned around a few times and filtered most of the stalls.

Moreover, while strolling around, he actually saw Tier 2's inaugural materials and clothing drawings in some big booths.

But most of them are materials for mainstream melee, assassin, and mage professions, and the price is extremely expensive, and there is no suitable one yet.

Su Lun wanted to find second-level employment materials related to "spatial ability", but don't worry, that kind of thing would never appear on the booth.

Even if there is, it will be bought at a high price by speculators wandering the streets at any time.

Su Lun walked around half the street, and then found another surprise!

At an inconspicuous stall, he saw that the stall owner packed some silver silk threads in a box, and the number seemed to be more than twenty.

After appraising it, it turned out that it was the [Cursed Hair of the Weeping Witch] that he had been looking for all along!

It was an unexpected and unexpected surprise.

Before, he guessed that since the hair came from the ruins, maybe other people would find some, but he did not expect to encounter it.

Su Lun walked over quickly and asked, "Brother, how do you sell this silk thread?"

The stall owner saw the customer coming, and introduced enthusiastically: "Oh, sir, you have a good eye. This silk thread is amazing, it is very tough, and it will become transparent after being injected with dark spiritual power, and it can also be turned into elements."

Although this silk thread is miraculous, it may not be used in many occupations, so it is not easy to sell.

This blow also attracted some passers-by around, who seemed to be very interested in this elemental silk thread.

Su Lun was very aware of the characteristics of this hair, and didn't want to attract too much attention. Before he finished introducing, he said, "Make a price, and buy it if it suits you."

The stall owner rolled his eyes, flashed a hint of shrewdness, and shouted the price casually: "Ten thousand. You know, after all, it took a lot of effort to get it."

This is obviously a mouth-to-mouth test.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have picked up this thread from a corpse, right?"

When Su Lun said this, he naturally wanted the other party to realize that he was knowledgeable.

This material is "new material" and hardly anyone in Old Rington has ever seen it.

For those who need it, 10,000 sticks are really cheap.

But for those who don't need it, it's useless to send it for free.

After all, puppet master is a rare profession, and there are very few people who need it.

Although he felt that the hair was worth the price, he didn't want to be taken advantage of.

Su Lun didn't hesitate, and said simply: "One price, I'll pack everything, one hundred thousand lisos."

The man thought about it for a while, and seemed to think that this customer was not easy to fool, so he replied decisively: "Okay!"

Su Lun paid the money, put the hair into the storage ring, and felt inexplicably relieved.

At this time, the stall owner introduced other things on his stall, "Look, I still have some materials here."

"Do you still have this thread?"

"No, that's all there is to it."

"."

Su Lun glanced at it, not thinking about the material, but asked directly: "I want to know the information about the origin of this silk thread. If you know, I am willing to pay a suitable price."

In wild hunting, everything has a price.

Including intelligence.

The stall owner was not surprised when he heard this. The information on the source of the material was also one of the "commodities" he sold at the stall.

He directly quoted the price: "30,000. I promise to give you the exact location where this silk thread was found."

"Ten thousand!"

Su Lun is more direct.

He pulled out a thick wad of green cash and said, "If it's not detailed enough, I'll refuse to pay."

"OK!"

The stall owner immediately took out a pen and paper, and drew a sketch: "On the outskirts of the east city of the ruins, there is a monastery 300 meters northeast of the red brick tower."

As Su Lun listened, he had a general impression of the address in his mind.

He needs this [Cursed Hair of the Weeping Witch], the more the better.

This will make his puppet control a qualitative leap.

If possible, he even wanted to find the monster that produced this material.

Now that I have the black scythe in my hand, even high-level distortion monsters have the idea of ​​trying it.

This was originally a normal transaction.

Unexpectedly, when the vendor was still telling Su Lun the address, a few people came suddenly.

"I heard that you are selling a special silk thread at your stall?"

This opening of the mouth, the arrogant tone revealed the superior status of the visitor.

Su Lun knew without looking that this kind of person probably came from the inner city.

Glancing from the corner of the eye, he glanced slightly sideways.

The visitor was a middle-aged man in a suit with an upturned mustache.

Su Lun's gaze was instantly attracted by his hands holding the handle of the cane. His fingers were long and slender, and there were clear meridians on the back of his palms. This condition usually means flexible fingers, which can be seen in professional people such as pianists and typists.

If it's an extraordinary professional, or a puppeteer!

Because of Su Lun's own hand, that's it.

When the vendor heard someone asking, and looked at the person's attire, his tone suddenly became polite: "Honorable sir, what do you need?"

The middle-aged man with a mustache once again stated his purpose of coming: "I heard that you are selling a special silk thread, and I am interested in buying it."

"this"

Hearing this, the vendor looked at Su Lun with a look of embarrassment.

Su Lun guessed the reason for that guy's visit, so he didn't plan to make any troubles, handed the money to the stall owner, and said flatly: "This is money, just sign it to me."

"oh"

The stall owner was a little overwhelmed.

The middle-aged man obviously saw something from the stall owner's expression, and asked, "Do you mean to say that the silk thread has been sold?"

The stall owner bit the bullet and replied: "Yes. I just sold it to this gentleman."

The mustache looked at Su Lun's adventurer outfit, and then turned his eyes away.

It seems that he feels that his identity will lose value when talking to civilians.

But at this time, the young man who looked like an apprentice who was following him saw his face, and greeted Su Lun who was about to turn around and leave: "Sir, please wait."

Su Lun heard that the other party's tone was still polite, so he paused for a moment, "Huh?"

The young man said: "The silk thread you bought just now is very important to us, may I ask you to give it up?"

"Sorry, I have no idea of ​​selling materials."

Su Lun resolutely refused.

Before he opened his mouth, he actually guessed the other party's intention.

However, he will definitely not sell this hair.

Because it's not just a few pieces of material, it's also related to whether he can normally manipulate that "hate living corpse"!

He got three [Cursed Hair of the Wailing Witch] on the black market a few months ago, but because the quantity was too small, it was not enough to control the puppets, so he kept them for ashes.

Now with the addition of these twenty or so, it is completely enough for him to control a puppet in a small area.

When he entered the city before, he felt that the hatred of living corpses was too obvious, and if he manipulated it with a steel wire, it would be easy to be seen.

Now with these hair strands, this problem is perfectly solved.

Now he doesn't even need to cover up and hide the existence of hatred like before. The cloak covers the living corpse, and when manipulating it, infuse the hair with dark spiritual power, and the special silk thread that can be turned into elements will completely disappear.

You can take it with you at any time, without traces of manipulation or suspicion.

Therefore, he will never give up the materials he has obtained.

Hearing Su Lun's refusal, the young man's face suddenly became less pretty.

His identity and status had never received such treatment.

This made him feel ignored and humiliated by a commoner outside the city.

A haze flashed in the young man's eyes, he held back his words, and said calmly: "I am Danzie Oliver. This is my teacher, Mr. 'Puppet Master' Lloyd Rodney. The silk thread material It is only useful for puppet masters. If you can give up, sir, we will pay you extra."

Oliver Family,

The first-class chaebol in the inner city.

Almost as strong as the branches of the Reyce family divided into seven.

It is also one of the "Five Chaebols" who built the camp.

Moving out of identity is naturally to make people retreat.

As for the identity of the mustache mentioned by the young man, Su Lun also had a little impression.

One of the few puppet career instructors in Old Lington, a veteran second-tier career, the famous "magician" Lloyd Rodney.

But what about inner city people?

Others may still be scruples about three points, but

It has nothing to do with him being a wanted criminal?

Su Lun responded because the other party was polite enough before.

But now, he couldn't see the arrogance of these guys, obviously they were using power to overwhelm others.

"Sorry, I really have no idea of ​​the materials for sale."

Without further wording, he turned around and strode away.

Seeing that Su Lun didn't show any face, the young man named Danze blushed instantly in anger.

But everyone has left, and there is no chance for him to make trouble.

Danze could only turn his head and stare at the stall owner, angrily said: "How much did he pay?"

The stall owner swallowed his saliva after being stared at: "One hundred thousand."

Danze said angrily: "I'll give you one million, and sell me the silk thread!"

"this"

The stall owner had a bitter look on his face, and instantly felt that he had sold out.

Although he knew the rules of leaving the market for business, he wanted to take the money, so he quickly turned to greet Su Lun who had already left, and said loudly, "Sir, can you?"

Su Lun didn't look back, and said coldly, "No!"

"you"

The stall owner was already at a loss, so he had nothing to say.

Seeing Su Lun's attitude, the young man named Danze became even more furious, and cursed: "Damn it!"

But the mustache on the side shook his head, and greeted the young man, "Since the materials are sold, let's go. Originally, silk thread is the perfect puppet material. If there are enough, it can be considered as a breeding material for you to refine [Thousand Silk] The main material for the outfit. It’s a pity”

Danze didn't like it even more.

After a pause, the mustache looked at the stall owner again: "By the way, where did you get the silk thread material? We also bought a copy of the information."

Several people returned the same way.

As he walked, the anger in the young man's heart not only didn't disappear, but surged up instead.

He said to the middle-aged man beside him: "Teacher, I think that guy just now may not know [Cursed Hair of the Weeping Witch], after all, that thing is useless to ordinary professionals. Maybe I was too reckless , reported the background. Let him hear that I am from the Oliver family, so he deliberately wanted to raise the price."

After a pause, he felt that he had caught something, and suddenly realized: "I will go to him now, and I will definitely buy it at a higher price. That silk thread is worth buying even if it costs one million!"

"No, he should be very aware of the efficacy of that hair."

Mustache shook his head.

Su Lun didn't give his disciple face, nor did he give him face as a teacher.

There was also a gloomy look in his eyes: "Since you have reported your family, he is not afraid of offending others and will not give up the materials. He should be a puppet master after thinking about it. Hehe. The old Lingdun puppet master lineage, that's all." A few inheritances. I would like to see where he gets his confidence!"

After a pause, the middle-aged man rolled his eyes and pondered, "However, I think that should be a wanted criminal."

Otherwise, where would such a short-sighted fellow dare not give face to the Oliver family and Lloyd Rodney!

"Huh!"

Hearing this, the young man was delighted and immediately understood.

He glanced at the bodyguard behind him.

The bodyguard immediately understood and quietly left the team.

Su Lun was walking on the street when he suddenly noticed something, frowned slightly, and murmured in his heart: "I'm being followed."

He has the ability to perceive maliciously, and he can immediately detect all malicious sights.

Obviously, it was the Oliver family just now.

Do you feel bad?

hehe

The corner of Su Lun's mouth raised a touch of coldness.

But the camp is crowded with people, so it's not suitable for doing it.

Su Lun thought about it, and didn't want to kill people and make trouble here, so he turned into a corner with dense buildings.

The person following was probably a professional bodyguard, not very good at following. Now that Su Lun knew about it in advance, it was easy to lose the target.

Not long after, Su Lun changed into a costume and a mask, and strutted onto the street again.

At this time, there were no mechanical dogs and goods beside him, but a burly man in a cloak.

Although this kind of tall stature is eye-catching, you can occasionally see one or two of such exaggerated melee-type professionals and heavy-duty mechanical warriors on the street.

After changing the witch's hair, the control thread completely disappeared into the air.

There is breathing, there is a heartbeat, and no one else can detect the abnormality of abhorring living corpses.

Su Lun led the living corpse in the direction of the "Wild Hunters Guild".

If anyone could find out the whereabouts of the "secret method of mental power" and advanced materials for space ability, it must be the Wilderness Hunting Guild.

There is the most complete information about the ruins, as well as the Wild Hunting Team who has the information.
