Mechanical Alchemist

Not many people knew of the existence of Pandora, even in the dawn group. Now that there was such a person suddenly, the crew members were stunned for a moment, and then they looked dignified.

How did this woman appear out of thin air?

They didn't notice it at all!

Vigilance appeared in the eyes of the crew members, and their hands instinctively held their weapons.

Su Lun had sensed it in advance. Looking at everyone's reactions, he also guessed that they were probably "selectively blinded" by Pandora's mental illusion.

At the same time, he was also fortunate to have signed a covenant with this woman.

This weird mind control method, if it is the enemy, the people on this boat may not be able to survive.

The crew saw that both Qianjo and Su Lun seemed to know this woman, so there was no change.

After all, she is "the most beautiful girl in the world", even with a veil, Pandora's full charm cannot be hidden.

The skin is finer than snow, the figure is graceful, and the delicate face is half hidden, there is hardly any flaw that can be picked. The most peculiar thing is that she still has an aura of holiness that seems to be untainted by mortal dust. In the eyes of others, her whole body seems to be shrouded in the shining holy light, which makes people feel a kind of sacred and inviolable beauty.

She walked slowly and attracted everyone's attention.

Kama, a new member, was even more curious that there was such a beautiful woman in the dawn regiment. She felt that this was probably prettier than those priestesses in the Temple of Agapanon!

Su Lun listened to Pandora popularize the use of the golden fleece, and probably guessed her purpose, "You"

He didn't know how to address it properly, he pondered for a moment, and then said, "Miss Pandora, who is this?"

Pandora obviously didn't intend to have too much contact with others, and responded calmly: "I want to talk to you alone."

Su Lun's eyebrows twitched slightly.

We were together every day before, and I haven't noticed the change much yet.

Now that he hadn't seen her for a few days, he realized that Pandora's aura was becoming more and more ethereal.

Su Lun also guessed that it should be due to the power of faith.

After all, she has gathered the power of faith of Shan Yin's "Great God of Moon Reading", and now that the "Moon Emperor" is in power, the power of faith will continue to be blessed. That majestic feeling is more and more like a high god.

"good!"

Su Lun agreed immediately.

Hearing this, the crew members on the deck immediately understood. They didn't stare at this woman of unknown origin anymore, and dispersed to go about their business.

Chijo could have listened together, but she looked bored and didn't intend to stay.

She took the scabbard and knocked on Tani and Lolotta, who were looking dazed, and said, "Let's go, let's go to the cabin to tidy up."

"oh."

The two and a half children woke up like a dream, and the confusion in their eyes became clear. Only then did they realize that they had been indulging in a strange state of mind just now, a shy blush flashed across their faces, and they followed Qianjo to the cabin with their heads down.

With no one else around, Pandora directly stated her reason for coming, "I need this [Golden Fleece]."

"oh?"

Su Lun raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, without expressing his opinion in a hurry.

This golden fleece is a top material, and its value is immeasurable.

However, he actually didn't care about the wool, but cared more about Pandora's attitude.

It's a good thing to ask for something.

Pandora explained her motives without any concealment, saying: "The reason why this [Golden Fleece] is sacrificed to the gods is because it is a rare and special material that can carry the power of faith. This thing is in the hands of mortals. Some are wasted."

In the previous two confrontations, she never took advantage of it. How could she not know that the most direct way to deal with this cunning guy is to talk about the exchange of benefits.

Pandora looked at Su Lun's calm expression, and added: "If you can give it to me, I can help. For example, solve the problem of the ship in the distance. I think you don't want to kill them all. .”

The communication between smart people is convenient. After stating the purpose and conditions, Su Lun weighed it for a moment, and immediately felt that the deal was worthwhile, so he agreed decisively: "Okay!"

This deal may not look equivalent now, but it is definitely not a loss!

Pandora's current strength will become stronger and stronger, and her abilities are also very useful.

Su Lun thought that a contract was too thin to bind this strong support for a long time.

Even if she wants to owe favors, even if she suffers a little loss, it is much better than a one-shot deal.

Now is the opportunity.

Hearing Su Lun's response, Pandora didn't hesitate. A huge wave of mental power suddenly descended on her, her eyes were like lightning, and her aura suddenly became majestic and indescribable.

Looking again, her figure suddenly appeared white, making it difficult to look directly at her.

Seeing the flash of white light, her figure appeared on the "Northern Wind" not far away, and the expressions of the people on that ship immediately froze on the spot.

Su Lun looked sideways at Pandora's body still in place beside him.

Glancing from the corner of the eye, that gleaming body in the distance is actually the embodiment of a pure spiritual body?

He knew what this meant, and he was shocked: "The spirit manifests! Wandering in the void!"

Su Lun has seen such a description in the classics. Only when the spiritual power is unbelievably strong can a "spiritual incarnation" be condensed.

This technique is a bit like the soul leaving the body, which can make the spirit and will leave the body and roam in the void.

Moreover, it is said that the gods in the mythical period descended to the planes of the heavens, using a similar method.

With one thought, the incarnation of will has already arrived.

This is a proper magic technique.

While Su Lun was still in shock, the light on Pandora's body dissipated, and she said calmly, "Okay."

Su Lun: "."

He didn't ask what Pandora did, but he could probably guess it. "Yuedu Dashen" is best at mental illusion. This person probably performed some group illusion on that group of people and tampered with some memories.

This indeed solved a big problem for Su Lun.

The few hostile people on the Beifeng were all killed by him, but there are still hundreds of innocent adventurers involved in the ship.

Letting them go will definitely reveal the fact that the Dawn Regiment intercepted and killed the North Sea Fleet this time, and there will be great hidden dangers in the future.

But if you don't let them go, you can't kill them all.

Although Su Lun killed decisively, he was not a person who killed indiscriminately.

Now that the problem is solved, he looked at Pandora and said lightly, "Thank you."

Pandora didn't say much, and said flatly: "It's just a transaction."

She said, put away the box of golden fleece, did not continue to show her face on the deck, and returned to her cabin.

Su Lun looked at the corners of his eyebrows raised slightly.

Sure enough, he was soft on people.

Although Pandora's attitude was still indifferent, it was much better than before.

This is a good sign.

A pirate battleship was harvested, and the people of the dawn group were busy painting and changing the color, and tidying up their new ship.

Among the wooden warships of this displacement level, the North Sea Fleet is already the best, with fast speed, strong artillery, and strong enough

A little modified appearance, it is not easy to be recognized.

Su Lun sat on the deck, blowing the sea breeze, and fell into deep thought for a long time.

Pandora popularized the function of the Golden Fleece just now, and now he is basically sure that those pirates brought the [Golden Fleece], most likely for some kind of mysterious sacrifice.

After all, Roman is a country with gods and beliefs, and all kinds of sacrificial activities were normal.

But at this moment, the timing is a bit intriguing.

Su Lun's thoughts were flying, filling his brain with one possibility after another.

The value of this [Golden Fleece] is extraordinary. What is there in this sea that needs to be sacrificed with this level of "sacrifice"?

God?

Su Lun thought of the treasures on Alcatraz Island.

So many precious things appear in the same place, but they are not from the same era.

Could it not be some ancient ruins, but also the sacrifices left there through such sacrificial behavior?

Except for the priests of the Temple of Agathaparton, I am afraid no one knows why.

This hypothetical idea is one, and I am terrified when I think about it carefully.

If the treasures on Alcatraz are sacrifices, why would the temple allow adventurers to hunt for treasure?

When the news of "Alcatraz Treasure" came out, the Temple of Agapanon also played a role in fueling the flames.

This time the news came out so quickly, Su Lun always felt that there was something behind the scenes.

News flowed out, treasure hunts returned, and nautical charts flowed out.

Every step seems to be just right, seducing people's curiosity and attracting adventurers to explore.

Just yesterday, at least 100,000 adventurers went out to sea to hunt for treasure, and there may be more in the next few days.

"Why do those guys in the Roman Temple attract so many adventurers?"

Su Lun was puzzled.

If it wasn't for the accidental interception of the [Golden Fleece], he might have been kept in the dark.

"By the way, the temple!"

Su Lun thought of the 【God of War Tyr's Golden Spear of Karma】 that fell from the sky and wanted to kill him in the city.

Why did the temple people kill themselves?

Su Lun came to Roman for the first time, and he was sure that he hadn't had any conflicts with the Temple of Agapanon before.

Is it because of "divination"?

But if it is because of this, it makes people feel that the causal relationship is somewhat inverted.

If you don't come to kill me, why should I provoke you?

Now that the feud has been formed, it is not an enemy, but an enemy.

Su Lun felt more and more puzzled.

But some key clues are missing, and I can't figure it out.

At this moment, another thought popped into his mind: "Oh, I almost forgot. Barrett!"

Su Lun almost didn't forget that Barrett and his two lieutenants were still in his "Little Void Realm".

This place is already far away from the coastline, so it's okay to think about letting people out.

Warlock Su Lun pinched the seal, and a black hole of space slowly condensed in his palm.

When the exit was large enough, three figures jumped out of the void.

The sailboat gallops in the wind on the blue sea, rising and falling with the waves.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Barrett also knew that they had escaped from the city-state of Moros, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at Su Lun in front of him, his face was very complicated, ashamed, grateful, shocked... all kinds of feelings in his heart.

After all, when I chose to lead my brothers to the city-state of Moros to save people, I was afraid of dragging down the dawn group.

Unexpectedly, when they were in crisis, it was the people from the Dawn Regiment who extended a helping hand, and they survived.

Counting it, this is already the third time that Su Lun has solved an almost fatal crisis for them.

This life-saving grace is beyond comprehension.

Barrett didn't know how to express his gratitude for a while, and sighed slightly: "Little friend Su Lun, I'm going to trouble you again this time."

As he spoke, he and the two adjutants behind him solemnly saluted Su Lun with a chest guard.

Su Lun reached out to support Barrett, who bowed very low, and said, "Mr. Barrett, you don't have to be so polite. I just happened to meet him before, and it's just a matter of little effort."

Barrett shook his head, sincerely grateful and said: "Little friend Su Lun's several life-saving graces, our 'judgment team' will never forget it."

Little effort?

That's absolutely not!

The people in the Lu Ying Military Intelligence Department are not vegetarians. To save people in the city-state of Moros must have taken a great risk.

Su Lun shrugged noncommittally.

It's not that he didn't chase, but that he collected the [Golden Spear], which led to the curfew of the whole city and disrupted the siege and hunt plan of those people from the Luying Military Intelligence Department.

He didn't continue to be polite on this topic, but instead said: "There is reliable information that those people from your 'judgment group' escaped from the underground cave in the city-state of Moros. People from the Luying Military Intelligence Department didn't catch anyone. "

"real?!"

Hearing this, Barrett and the two adjutants instantly showed ecstasy.

At this time, an adjutant also quickly took out the communicator that he carried with him and started to communicate. Seeing the green light on the communicator, he was sure of something in an instant, looked at Barrett in surprise, and said excitedly: "Captain, there is a signal!"

Barrett couldn't hide his excitement, and his face was radiant. He explained to Su Lun: "This is the contact signal we agreed on before. Once they come out alive, they will activate a specific signal frequency, and we can receive it even if they are far away. Now they should have escaped according to the plan. to the sea."

As he said that, his breath became heavy, and he laughed loudly: "Hahaha brothers finally came out alive!"

This time to save people, they themselves reported the will to die.

Now the brothers in the regiment escaped alive, this is the greatest good news, even more important than their survival!

It seemed that the depression accumulated in his heart these days suddenly dissipated, and with a smile, Barrett's eyes were already full of tears.

Su Lun was also happy for them when he looked at this tough man who was a little tearful.

This is a group of people with true temperament and blood.

The sun is shining and the sea breeze is blowing.

It seems that after surviving the darkest time of life, everything is developing in a good direction.

At this moment, he was relieved.

The glory, status, military rank, family, and concern of the knights in the past have all become the past.

He can embrace a brand new future.

Barrett's eyes were no longer as dead and gloomy as before. He looked at the free-flying seabirds in the sky, lighting up the light of hope.

At this time, Su Lun also spoke at the right time and asked, "Mr. Barrett, do you have any plans for the future?"

Hearing this, the excitement in Barrett's eyes subsided, as if he had made a decision long ago.

He looked at Su Lun in front of him, and said solemnly: "If possible, I would like to join 'Liming'."

Su Lun smiled slightly: "Welcome!"

Barrett and his Holy Inquisition opted in, and the Order of the Dawn grew stronger again.

According to Barrett himself, after he had the [Silver Hand], his strength was stronger than at his peak. Now it is possible to break through the sixth level at any time and enter the field of top professionals.

The "Judgement Group" also has four or five hundred royal knights. After joining, the number of the Dawn Group will double.

The current overall combat power of the Dawn Regiment cannot be underestimated, even if it encounters the reorganized fleet of the North Sea Fleet, it may not be much weaker.

Su Lun announced the good news to everyone in the dawn group, and everyone gave a warm welcome to the new members.

No one thought they were down-and-out royal knights. On the contrary, Barrett and the others sacrificed their lives to save their companions, which won everyone's admiration and respect.

Before the welcome dinner was held in time, Su Lun organized the top management of the regiment and held an important meeting.

Not long after, in the captain's room.

Chijo, Dr. Banks, Barrett, and the squad leaders gathered together.

The chandelier above the meeting room was shaking, and the dim light illuminated the extremely serious faces.

Su Lun recounted all the information he had obtained and guessed, and said, "That's the information we know now. Let's see what everyone thinks about how our Dawn Corps should act next."

For a moment, everyone fell into deep thought, and needles could be heard in the conference room.

I thought it was an ordinary adventure and treasure hunt, but I didn't expect such a complicated situation to be involved.

After a while, Qianjo's face was full of seriousness, and he was the first to speak: "So, Su Lun, do you think that the treasure of Alcatraz this time is actually a conspiracy planned by someone?"

Su Lun nodded and said, "Yes. There are too many coincidences in this to make people suspicious. Moreover, I even suspect that some abilities like 'prophecy' may still point to our Dawn Corps."

If there is any force that can bring great changes to this world in the future, Su Lun thinks that their "Dawn Squad" is definitely one of them.

Although the Dawn Regiment is still weak, it is still thriving. Mr. Youjing is a leader who harbors great ideals for the revival of human alchemy civilization, and members like them who work hard for a common goal. The light of dawn may not be unable to dispel the darkness and illuminate the earth.

There is no gratuitous hatred in this world.

After thinking about it for a long time, Su Lun felt that the assassination by those people in the Agapanon Temple could only be due to these mysterious reasons.

Oleg, the king of the North Sea, intervened in the affairs of the Agapanon Temple, and now Roman's beliefs are not pure.

Barrett also quickly entered the role of Dawn member. At this time, he also used his own experience to analyze: "I think this possibility is also very high. In the past, when we explored some unknown seas, we encountered some primitive tribes. At that time, I also found that the beliefs of some ancient evil gods were very cruel, and I often saw scenes of blood sacrifices."

Dr. Banks listened, his face became very gloomy, "But...there are more than 100,000 adventurers this time! Could it be that those people want to use these 100,000 people as sacrifices?"

Sacrifice 100,000 people?

Just listening to this evil behavior is outrageous.

Su Lun exhaled and nodded: "If it's what I guessed, it probably is. The treasures on Alcatraz Island will definitely not be taken away so easily. The target of the sacrifice will probably be very terrifying. The presence."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the meeting room became very dignified.

Now that they have doubts, the Liming Mission will definitely not rush towards Alcatraz again.

Although the members of the Dawn Regiment can't be called kind-hearted people, they are definitely people who will draw their swords in the face of injustice.

At this point in the meeting, the key to the topic seems to be the "one hundred thousand people".

Everyone's frowning brows have not dissipated.

At this time, Qianjo said: "Even if we guessed the truth, I'm afraid we won't be able to save the situation. Those adventurers have been dazzled by the treasure, and they will never give up the treasure hunting plan because of someone's unreasonable speculation. What's more, now At sea, they can’t be contacted.”

Su Lun didn't show any embarrassment, and said, "Yes. This is the most troublesome thing."

Too many people saw the deeds of the "Flying Fish Group" returning from the treasure hunt yesterday.

Greed makes people desperate.

Even if they were to intercept and stop them one by one, they would probably be regarded as having ulterior motives.

The question now is, what should the Dawn Group do?

go back?

After the conference room fell into a brief silence, Dr. Backus suddenly thought of something and said, "I have thought of a feasible plan!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes looked over.

Banks said: "Before you sent us the news, Su Lun, I arranged for the people at the dock to leave a biomarker on the 'Pulsatilla'. Now I perceive the direction of the ship, and it should be only a few meters away from us." It looks like a hundred nautical miles."

After a pause, he continued: "I doubt that this level of sacrifice should require a very cumbersome sacrifice procedure. Since the [Golden Fleece] was found on the ship just now, is there any other Sacrifice?"

Hearing this, everyone immediately understood.

Qianjo's expression brightened, and he also said, "The doctor means that if we intercept all the ships of the North Sea Fleet, maybe we can stop this conspiracy?"

"Um!"

Dr. Banks nodded, and said: "Also, the ship "Princess Frost Moon" is also a key point. Even if some kind of evil sea sacrifice is to be carried out, the people of the Agapanon Temple dare not sacrifice the people of the Mafa royal family! Now that the Pulsatilla is nearby, it would be a good entry point."

Su Lun also felt reasonable.

He knew from his previous memories of stripping Vasily that the North Sea Fleet had sent at least three divisions to sea this time.

If you really want to intercept and kill them all, maybe you really have a chance to destroy this conspiracy.

Dr. Banks's proposal made everyone see a hope of breaking the situation.

But new problems appeared again.

If their dawn regiment had stayed out of the matter, they probably wouldn't have any trouble at all.

But if you go to intercept and kill the people of the North Sea Fleet, not only will the battle be risky, but you may also be involved in some unknown situations.

This kind of decision related to the safety of the team is naturally impossible to go arbitrarily.

Su Lun raised a vote and asked, "What do you think?"

Chijo was the first to raise his hand without fear, "I agree to intercept and kill the Beihai Fleet."

Banks: "Yes!"

Barrett: "Agreed!"

All the team leaders: "Agreed!"

In the end, everyone in the dawn regiment unanimously decided to go.

risky, unknown,

This is what nautical adventure is all about.
