Mechanical Alchemist

Dr. Banks had left biomarkers on the battleships left by the mages in the plane of the gods before, so the Dawn Corps has always grasped the approximate coordinates of the fleet's location.

Now the dawn group sailed all the way to the outskirts of the ancient dragon country ruins, and found that the sea ships were just a few days' voyage nearby.

Although I don't know how those guys came to such a deep sea, but the mark has not been moved for a long time. Probably encountered some special circumstances, or the enemy realized that they parked intentionally as bait or something

But no matter what, Su Lun felt that he had to check the situation first.

Anyway, they were not far away, and he originally planned to get closer, and then go there to inquire about information.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Pandora, who had been stealing beliefs in the Silver Dragon Kingdom, sent a message, saying that she had obtained a very important clue.

On this day, on an unnamed deserted island that was not marked on the chart.

The Eternal Night continued to sail at sea, while Su Lun teleported to the island by himself following the coordinates left by Pandora.

There are a lot of traces left by human activities on the island.

According to Pandora, last night, a fleet of more than 100,000 people anchored here to rest overnight.

It was a funeral procession from Silver Dragon Kingdom.

Su Lun also found it incredible.

Because this deserted island already belongs to the ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons, according to the markings on the chart, it is even closer to the core of the ruins than the Dawn Mission.

But how is this possible!

Su Lun knew all too well how many dangerous monsters the Dawn Group had encountered before arriving here.

It is impossible for an ordinary fleet to have the strength to fight against risks.

However, the strange thing is that the funeral procession not only came.

And it went smoothly all the way, and reached this depth without encountering any accidents at all?

Naturally, Su Lun didn't believe it.

But Pandora is in that fleet now, and she witnessed the entire voyage process with her own eyes.

According to her observations, there are signs that there seems to be a mysterious force behind the funeral procession protecting these people. And there is a high probability of being involved with people from the plane of the gods.

That's why Su Lun came in person.

In order to prevent being discovered, Su Lun did not teleport directly onto the ship.

After carefully observing the traces on the deserted island, he teleported again to the next space coordinate left by Pandora.

After teleporting a few times, he could already see the fleet of hundreds of ships on the sea.

Su Lun also frowned as he looked at the single-masted sailboats called "big oar warships" in the waters of the Dragon Kingdom.

The draft of this kind of ship is very shallow, and the main power is sail and human paddling, which is not suitable for long-distance voyages at all. A little bit of wind and waves can capsize the boat.

But it just happened to be such a ship, and it has sailed into the depths of the Dragon Kingdom ruins, and it has not sunk, which is simply a miracle.

Su Lun was afraid that there would be experts in perception on board, so she didn't dare to get close to the detection. She asked about the situation on board Pandora, and she said that she could teleport, so she teleported there.

The surrounding scenery changed, from the sea to a cramped and dark cabin.

Su Lun knew that there was not much space on the boat, but it was only the moment before teleporting that he realized how small it was.

He teleported here following the space coordinates on the Pandora necklace, and as soon as he arrived, the two of them happened to squeeze into each other's arms.

This looks like a corner of a warehouse, with goods piled up all around.

This space was just enough for one and a half people to stand, but now that Su Lun came, the two of them could only stick together.

Wen Yu is full of warmth, and the touch is delicate.

Looking again, there is a person wearing a cloak a foot away.

Su Lun looked up, and Pandora's beautiful face came into view.

Looking at Su Lun's expression, she raised her eyebrows and explained, "Don't make such an expression. It would be nice to have such an independent space on this boat."

After hearing this, Su Lun felt it, and it was true.

This single-masted sail that could only accommodate three to five hundred people, now fully accommodates more than a thousand people.

Just like those slave ships that Lu Ying used to transport, the cabin was packed with people densely as if stuffed with cargo.

As Pandora said, with such a standing place and a small window for ventilation, it is already the best "single room" on the ship.

Not just this one, but all ships within the range of perception.

But compared to the crowding, Su Lun was more puzzled as to why there were so many people?

Moreover, the soul fluctuations in many perceptions on the ship are not strong, and they should be ordinary people. No matter how you look at it, the Silver Dragon royal family has so many ordinary people to attend the funeral.

Pandora seemed to see what was going on in his heart, and said, "These people only know that they are here for the king's funeral. But I don't think it should be that simple."

Su Lun listened thoughtfully.

The one who was buried was naturally the former King Gracie VIII of Silver Dragon Pass.

When the two Gorgons fought against each other on the outskirts of the royal capital Ekronsa, all the members of the royal family who escaped were petrified.

Then a prince ascended the throne and became the new king. He didn't even think about lifting the curse on the former king, so he arranged for someone to come to the funeral, saying that he would be buried at sea in the country of ancient dragons, which is the greatest respect for the old king.

However, 100,000 people are needed for the funeral?

Or go deep into such a dangerous sea?

Also, what kind of mysterious power sheltered these people?

Doubts popped up one after another, and Su Lun always had a feeling that the routine formula was very familiar.

At this time, Pandora gave a general overview of the situation, and then expressed her conclusion: "I guess, this group of people should have been sent to 'sacrifice'."

"Sacrifice?"

Su Lun was lost in thought.

He also thought of this, so he felt familiar.

Once upon a time, the Liming Group encountered the same routine when they were adventuring in the four countries of Beizhou.

Back then in Romania, the priests of the Temple of Agapanon used treasures as bait to attract hundreds of thousands of adventurers to explore the sea, but finally found out that they were offering sacrifices to the false god Neptune of the sea ruins in exchange for good weather.

But the funeral procession at the moment looks the same no matter how you look at it.

Some evil false gods need sacrifices to gain power, and at the same time, human beings can reach some exchange conditions with evil gods through sacrifices.

Thinking of this, the idea of ​​the conspiracy behind the funeral gradually became clear.

Su Lun was lost in thought.

Neither of them spoke.

They huddled in a narrow corner, and even the sound of each other's breathing could be heard clearly.

After maintaining this position for quite a while, Pandora seemed to feel uncomfortable, so she moved her body a little.

With this movement, the two of them got closer, even through a thin layer of clothing, the graceful figure can be clearly felt.

Su Lun clearly felt a large piece of warmth and softness sticking up, and then he came back and took a look.

But Pandora didn't have any abnormality on her face.

Her beautiful eyes were shining, and she continued: "When I was collecting beliefs, I discovered that the current king of the Silver Dragon Kingdom has a close relationship with the white-robed wizard Garcia you mentioned, and there is a high probability that he is also a believer of a certain god in the plane of the gods. The funeral sacrifice this time is very likely to be planned by those mages in the plane of the gods."

Speaking of this, she paused for a moment, and said again: "I also found that the beliefs of Yinlong Kingdom are very complicated these days, and various false gods emerge in endlessly. Among them, there is one called the 'Grey Mist Sect'. What they believe in is a false god called 'Lord of the Gray Mist', who can protect fishermen's harvest and safety at sea. And I found believers of the Gray Mist Sect on the boat. When they prayed, there was a force of faith pointing to The depths of the sea in the direction we sail."

"That's it"

When Su Lun heard this, he almost fully understood the ins and outs of the matter.

Now the long-distance teleportation array on Rainbow Island is gone, and those guys on the plane of the gods have no backup. If they want to go to the depths of the ancient dragon land to search for [Fountain of Mimir], even if they have tens of thousands of legal groups, the possibility of finding it alive is extremely low.

Therefore, some external force must be needed.

It's like cooperating with the Gorgon Dacheng before, probably because of the external force they borrowed.

But the snake-haired banshee was killed by Medusa "Helen" before, and now they have to find another partner.

And a false god who can control the ocean is perfect.

It just so happened that the current royal family of Yinlong Kingdom is a believer in the gods, and it is easy to mobilize the people as sacrifices.

So in the name of the former king, let these more than 100,000 people come to sacrifice.

And then reach an agreement with that false god, in exchange for reaching the deep sea smoothly?

After thinking about it, Su Lun came to the above conclusion.

Although all of this is just Pandora's speculation, considering the current situation, this speculation is almost true.

Pandora saw that he also wanted to understand, and said at this time: "There is a group of mysterious people on the main ship. I suspect that they are magicians from the plane of the gods. In order not to startle the snake, I didn't go to test it."

She followed, naturally thinking about the divine power of the "Lord of Gray Mist".

She didn't hide her purpose, and said directly: "So I plan to do it during the sacrifice and steal the belief of that false god. But after I came here, I discovered that this sea area is connected to the plane of hell, and the divine power left over from ancient times It is very rich, which is of great benefit to me. It is also of great benefit to other existences. And that false god has condensed a false godhead here, and may have some special abilities. So, I may need your help. "

"Um."

Su Lun nodded without hesitation when he heard this.

Pandora is now the backbone of the Dawn Regiment, if he asks for help, he will naturally not refuse.

Moreover, Pandora's strength is very strong now. If it is stronger, the All-out War Dawn Regiment will have more confidence.

Su Lun automatically connected the clues in his mind, and felt that Pandora's plan was good.

If the false god can be killed, it can be regarded as directly destroying the treasure hunting plan of the plane of the gods.

Thinking about it, he asked, "When do you think the sacrifice will be?"

Pandora responded: "It should be soon. I feel that the power of the false god in the nearby sea area is getting stronger and stronger. There are still three or two days' voyage at most before we will reach the target sea area."

Su Lun nodded, "Yeah."

You can wait for two or three days. If you don't expose it now, then you can catch that false god by surprise.

The two discussed some details and roughly finalized the plan.

However, Su Lun looked at the cramped environment and stayed like this for two days?

They're pretty good in this corner. The two-meter-high floor of the outer cabin is divided into three floors, and everyone is curled up on the floor, piled up densely like wooden barrels, and they can't even stand upright.

Pandora saw that there was a slight difference in his expression, but she didn't mind at all. Instead, there was a sly look on her beautiful face, and she joked, "Yo, you don't seem to be at ease?"

"."

Su Lun rolled his eyes.

He knew that Pandora's words were definitely not the kind of provocation between a man and a woman, but purely to have some fun.

Probably because she has been a high-ranking Yuedu god in front of outsiders for a long time, and finally someone can speak normally, so she doesn't have to maintain the majesty of that god, and her speech has become casual.

As far as Su Lun knew, she seemed to be the only one who could communicate normally with Mr. Jing, so it was boring to think of being a god.

Maybe there was a bit of revenge when she was captured by Su Lun back then?

In short, Su Lun would not take it seriously.

But in the current situation, the two are crowded in this narrow space, and there is a lot of physical contact no matter what.

But Pandora wanted to stay here to perceive the evil god's situation, and Su Lun couldn't take her into the small void.

And he himself has to stay on the ship to deal with the changes that may happen at any time.

It seems that the two of them can only maintain the situation of being in the same room like this.

Pandora probably felt that after two academic studies on the alchemy body, her body had no privacy from Su Lun, so she has always been very generous, and her attitude is probably: You can just look at it if you want to, and you can touch it if you want to. please.

Even occasionally, I can take the initiative to tease with great interest to pass the boring sailing time.

Su Lun didn't think much of it at first, and even had a little fun, but he couldn't stand the vicious magic trick. (Yuedu Dashen also masters sexual desire, which is also one of her secret techniques of Shinto practice)

After all, he was defeated and defeated.

Su Lun tried a way to cut the goods with silk thread, and then expanded the space to allow two people to stand and sit.

Just like that, two days later.

Su Lun was used to super-large sailing warships like the Eternal Night, but he was a little unaccustomed to suddenly switching to this kind of sloop.

On the Eternal Night, even in the stormy cabin, it was relatively stable.

But on a small boat, if there is a slight wave, it feels like the sky is turned upside down.

However, it is this kind of sailboat with a shallow draft that seems to have sunk a hundred times in this sea area, but instead sailed smoothly all the way.

No severe storms were encountered, and even the larger sea beasts in the sea were deliberately avoided.

Su Lun also gradually realized that what Pandora said was right, the "Lord of the Gray Mist" really had some tricks.

At least, it can keep those high-level sea beasts and aberrations from approaching, which must have a relatively matching ability.

Must be tricky.

On the evening of the third day, the sunlight outside the window dimmed.

Su Lun and Pandora were meditating hidden in the corner of the cabin.

The window was already filled with thick fog, and the fleet also stopped.

Su Lun opened his eyes and glanced at the black mist outside the window.

This is already the edge of the center of the ancient dragon country ruins. He estimated the distance. According to the legend, the voyage to the volcano on the plane of hell is only half a month further east.

The hell atmosphere in the air was already very thick, and the people on board had already shown signs of slight distortion. Wait a few more days, I'm afraid most of these people will turn into monsters.

Su Lun didn't know what to think of, and frowned slightly.

The closer he got to this sea area, the faint feeling that something was wrong in his heart.

But I don't know where the source of the strangeness is.

He looked at Uncle Crow who was dozing off on his shoulder. After getting the fragment of the Necromancer Plane a few days ago, Uncle Crow's food has been a bit better recently, and he is full all day long. His fur is also particularly bright, and he looks like he is about to advance.

It was very quiet, and the cloud in Su Lun's heart dissipated a little.

Just when thoughts were flying, suddenly, there was the sound of "crashing" water outside.

It was as if someone had dumped a large amount of stuff into the sea.

And the fleet did not rest and berth normally like the previous two days, but gradually moved closer together.

Su Lun thought: "The sacrifice is about to start?"

Pandora on the side also opened her eyes, sensed something and said: "The power of faith outside is gathering, that guy should appear."

When she said this, her face was very serious, as if she had gradually entered a state of god.

Su Lun's expression froze when he heard that.

There will probably be a fierce battle in a while.

I notified the side of the Evernight, in case of need for support, he will go over there to shake people at any time.

And he always felt that this sacrifice would somehow have something to do with the Dawn Group.

At this time, there was also a greeting from the deck.

"Someone, move His Majesty's funeral objects to the deck!"

"Hurry up! Get moving!"

"."

With this shout, everyone on the boat where Su Lun and the others were staying was also busy moving all the goods onto it, and then dumped them into the sea.

Many people still thought it was a funeral object for the royal family, but they didn't know that it was a sacrifice to the evil god.

The goods were moved away one by one, and those people seemed to be completely oblivious to Su Lun in the corner, busy with each other.

Both Su Lun and Pandora were waiting for their time.

However, while waiting and waiting, Su Lun let out a sigh: "Hey, those two brothers and sisters are also on the boat?"

Because more than 100 ships in the fleet were far apart before not being discovered. Now that they are all gathered together, he perceives that there are two familiar souls on another ship.

It was none other than Bennett of the Legion of Miracles and his sister Isabel.

Su Lun had a good impression of the two siblings.

It seems that there is still some affection in it.

Not only the two brothers and sisters, but also the members of the Miracle Legion, almost all of them are in the fleet.

"They were also used as sacrifices?"

After thinking about it, Su Lun figured it out.

The Miracle Legion was loyal to the former king, but also firmly opposed to the belief in the plane of the gods.

Now that the new king is on the throne, it is only natural for them to be sent to the funeral as sacrifices.

Because of some affection, Su Lun planned to tell them.

What's more, the combat power of the Miracle Legion is not weak, and the gathering of hundreds of people is not a weak force.

Thinking of this, he said to Pandora beside him, "Let me go over."

Pandora nodded and didn't speak any more.

At this moment, she was full of divine power, her eyes were like two red moons, and she looked extremely strange.

Has become a "Monthly Reading God".

Su Lun sensed a direction, a teleportation, and appeared in the cabin of another ship.

This is the main ship, which is much larger than the one he was in before, and has many independent cabins for senior knights.

When Su Lun teleported over, Bennett was on the deck calling for people to dump the funerary objects into the sea last week.

Only her sister Isabel was in the cabin, with a sad face, as if thinking about something.

When there was one more person in the room, she suddenly turned her head, and at the same time drew out the dagger at her waist, and the figure disappeared on the spot.

Su Lun felt the sharp blade on his neck, blocked it easily with two fingers, and said at the same time, "It's me, Su Lun."

He knew that Isabel was a good assassin, so he didn't intend to make any noise, so he imprisoned the whole person directly.

Isabel heard the voice, looked again, and asked in surprise, "Mr. Su Lun?"

She never expected that she would meet the overseas strong man who had met once here.

Seeing her tense muscles relax, Su Lun put her down.

Isabel asked again: "Sir, why are you here?"

Su Lun glanced at her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Hearing this, Isabel's brows flashed a look of sadness, and she said truthfully, "We are here to funeral His Majesty the King."

Su Lun keenly caught the change in her expression. Obviously, she also realized that things were not that simple, and asked, "Do you know who is on the other main ship of this fleet?"

Isabel didn't know why he asked this, but said truthfully: "I don't know. I heard it was a funeral wizard."

Hearing what she said, Su Lun also confirmed that people like Bennett were also completely ignorant.

Waiting for no one, he cut straight to the point: "You and the people on board may have been treated as sacrifices. This is a sea sacrifice. In addition, the people on the main ship may not be wizards, but magicians from the plane of the gods." .”

At this statement, Isabel's face suddenly changed.

She rolled her eyes and murmured to herself in shock: "I said why the royal family arranged for so many people to come, no wonder."

Su Lun didn't mean to explain, and said directly: "You call your brother down, I have something to tell him. Be careful not to be discovered."

"Um!"

When Isabel heard this, she thought for a moment and nodded.

Although she felt that she was not familiar with the person in front of her, her brother always said that he was trustworthy.

She couldn't pay attention to such a big matter, so she ran all the way onto the deck.

Not long after, Bennett walked into the cabin with a puzzled expression.

He was also surprised to see Su Lun here.

But when Su Lun told the ins and outs of the matter, Bennett was also shocked.

He had observed many doubts about this funeral trip before, but now that he said it, why didn't he think it through?

He is indeed loyal to the Gracie royal family, but not the current king!

Now that he, his family, and all the brothers of the Miracle Legion are being sacrificed, how can there be silence?

But at this moment, the sacrifice had already been thrown into the sea, and the sacrifice had already begun.

Without warning, the hull shook violently.

Outside the window, the mist had turned into black ink, and an indescribable evil will quietly descended.

Su Lun watched his pupils shrink slightly, and said softly: "The evil god is here."

The expressions of the Bennett brothers and sisters changed at the same time, and they clenched the weapons in their hands.

When the false gods mixed in the mist descended, Pandora also notified in the communicator: "You can do it!"

Su Lun had disappeared into the cabin when he heard the warlock Yin Shun pinch.

He didn't directly trouble the Outer God, but teleported to another main ship.

He had already captured the positions of those magicians, and as soon as he moved into the cabin, he saw two seventh-level magicians leading a magic team and chanting spells in front of a huge magic circle.

As soon as Su Lun's domain was unfolded, he unceremoniously raised his sword and dropped it. Before the group of people in front of them could even react, they were already decapitated.

With his current strength, it is easy to kill a magic team!

However, his goal is not these magicians, destroying the sacrifice is just the beginning.

The plan is, Su Lun will attack first, and then wait for the false god to reveal his methods, and then Pandora will attack and steal the divine power of faith!

If not, the moment Su Lun destroyed the sacrificial formation, the will in the black mist suddenly showed irritability and anger, and attacked Su Lun's ship.

At the same time, a distant and terrifying voice came from beside my ear: "Stupid human being, how dare you offend a great god!"

The voice echoed in my mind, and there was also a pressure of faith that seemed to make people worship.

"snort!"

Su Lun snorted coldly, with a grim expression.

The phantom of the god of death rose up behind him, instantly dispelling the negative state of shock.

It's just a false god, do you really think of yourself as a god?

With Su Lun's current strength, he might not be afraid of any false gods!
