Chapter 224: Puerto kadurante

The merchant ship that Sulun took was going to the port of Catalunya, just as Mr. Mirror was going to the province of Xenodia, a neutral place between the two empires, where he also needed to change cruises or buy sea ships.

asked about the itinerary of Mr. Hei's team. They have also landed and are changing to land transportation to head north.

After all, the "Shengfeng" on board is a pirate ship, and there will be a lot of trouble.

It will take about two or three days.

is also about the time when Su Lun and the others arrived.

And Su Lun himself plans to go to the Northland Ice Sheet to see, he needs experience and knowledge.

The original owner's Leigardi family is in the south of Luying, and he has no plans to go there to cause trouble in a short time. .

Beidi Ice Field is a good choice.

Moreover, he is now also preparing for the advanced level three.

Although the dark spiritual power is thin on the ground, he has [Isaac's Alchemy Heart], as if carrying a dark spiritual power spring with him, which can fully meet the needs of cultivation, and his spiritual power is steadily increasing, reaching the golden material The advanced requirements of the teacher’s three-color mask are only a matter of time.

Also, he still needs to raise some materials for his third-tier alchemy plant.

just can go to Kadurant, the largest commercial territory in northern Luying, to try his luck.

Su Lun has now learned the secrets of spiritual power, and the direction of the third-order advancement is "multi-hearted, multi-purpose" and the direction of spiritual power control.

Therefore, he plans to get a special reproductive outfit that is highly compatible with the new awakening ability-[Spiritual Tentacle].

is the kind of ability that Pestoya used to manipulate the limbs of him and the bald Ivan in Stormwind Manor.

I didn't know what it was before, but now that Su Lun knew it, it was a mental manipulation method.

Use mental power thread to block target nerve signal transmission, conduct one's own will, and control other people's body.

The reason why the "Puppet Master" is so tricky is that in addition to making all kinds of weird runes and puppets, more importantly, some mysterious and unpredictable spiritual power manipulation secrets.

In the words of his teacher Seleya: Is a puppet an inconvenience? Controlling dead puppets is only an introduction, and controlling living puppets is an advanced step, so that in the end, everything you can see is a puppet!

The method of mental power manipulation will make up for Su Lun's shortcomings in puppet manipulation.

And, because he stripped off the memory fragments of "Forensic" Gerrard before and studied his "Anatomy Notes" carefully, Su Lun is now almost fully aware of the various nerve signal transmissions of the human body.

Once the colony is complete, it will immediately become combat effectiveness.

When the time comes, the power of puppet art like [Puppet Theater] will also increase dramatically.

Su Lun doesn't need to have complete physical control as before, he needs to wrestle with others.

Now the spiritual power is directly transmitted by silk thread, achieving dual control of physical and spiritual power, and can easily control the human body.

Even later,

As long as the target’s neural signal transmission is sufficiently understood, then it is not limited to manipulating humans, even monsters, distortion monsters...

In theory, anything can be manipulated.

This is also based on his own conditions. After careful consideration, Su Lun feels that he is the most suitable outfit for the third-tier advancement.

After    is advanced, his strength will skyrocket!

However, although the forging drawings of the colony were obtained from Celea, the main material is very rare.

He needs a kind of third-order or so, such as [Nightmare Spider], [Hundred Eyes Evil Eye], [Nightmare Octopus] and other mental power monsters complete and fresh brains, the higher the quality, the better.

He read these alternative targets in the classics, but after harvesting so many memories, no one has seen one of them.

Therefore, it is best to try your luck in a place rich in monsters like the Northern Ice Sheet.

It is said that in the depths of the primeval forest of the "Silent Forest", some ancient species that have become extinct outside are found every year...

...

Since knowing that Su Lun is a "genuine" rune teacher, fur merchant Benson and his son Jike have become very enthusiastic. In the terrestrial world, teachers are one of the most respected professions among civilians.

Even if it is a meal, someone will be sent to call Su Lun.

is considered "rescued" after all, and the owner's invitation is not easy to refuse, and Su Lun will readily agree.

Through small chats at the table, Su Lun also learned some of the world on the ground.

This Bensen family is regarded as the middle class among the civilians in the imperial capital of the Lu British Empire.

The "Silent Forest" in the north is rich in what kind of beast fur. These furs are all luxury items in the emperor, and they are very popular for making alchemy scrolls and clothing. The gross profit for such a trip is about 30-50 million risos, deducting tax and labor costs, it will probably be a net profit of about 10 million.

I can run two or three times a year.

But occasionally when you encounter pirates, you will lose everything.

Benson has also earned a lot of family business through his own business in recent years, and he is also considered a small and famous rich man in the circle of imperial capital fur merchants.

And Sulun's erudition also left a very good impression on Benson and his son.

However, Su Lun didn't know why. He occasionally felt some kind of hostility from Benson's somewhat charming wife Marianne.

There is also the captain of the guard called Raman.

...

On this day, the seaport city of Cadorante is in sight.

On the deck, Su Lun was blowing the sea breeze, looking into the distance.

Jike next to him is taking notes seriously, carefully recording the questions he asked for.

Every day Su Lun will blow the air on the deck. The fresh sea breeze will help him digest the knowledge he has just received in his mind.

Jike is very easy to learn, and will take advantage of this time to ask for some alchemy knowledge politely.

Su Lun thinks that this little boy has a good learning talent, and he explains patiently.

About less than an hour will arrive at the harbour. After disembarking, there is no such good teacher, and Jike seems a little confused.

He carefully put the notebook in the pocket of the vest, and learned that Su Lun was lying on the edge of the deck, because the grid was not high enough, and his feet were still hanging empty.

Jike said with emotion: "Mr. Nicholas, you really know everything. If only you can be hired as a personal teacher, then I will have great hopes of being admitted to the'Imperial Royal War College'."

Su Lun smiled and said nothing.

Jike’s eyes gleamed like stars, and he continued: “You know, it’s my dream to be admitted to the Royal Academy. There are only less than 5,000 new students in the entire empire every year. And 80% of the noble students are eliminated. , We civilians need very high admission scores to be admitted. That is the highest institution that can be admitted to the real elite..."

"Ok."

Su Lun was also very interested, smiling and nodding from time to time.

This Jike popularized him a lot of common sense of the ground world.

The best educational resources in this world belong to the heirs of the nobles, but they leave some opportunities for the common people.

The nobles are exempted from entrance examinations, and the common people need one-in-a-million talent and high tuition.

Jike has become accustomed to this class difference, and there is no complaint in his tone of injustice.

He looked like a boy with a lot of dreams, full of yearning for the highest institution, and said: "If I can pass the exam, I will be able to get in touch with the top masters and the best resources. The Royal Academy has a lot more campuses. In the architecture of the "Atria Empire" years ago, the college library has the richest collection of books in the world! Various collections of orphaned classics, various master manuscripts, documents excavated from various civilization relics... such as Roger Bacon, Clement, Ramon Luhr, Teoflast von Hohenheim...the manuscripts of alchemists from all ages are available."

Su Lun nodded approvingly as he listened to these famous names in the alchemy field.

The British Lu Empire has existed for more than 800 years, and the documents in the Royal Collection of Bona are absolutely unimaginable.

This statement also made Su Lun really interested.

When it comes to acquiring knowledge of alchemy, there is really no place more suitable than the Royal Academy.

After Seleya's teaching, he now knows the direction of his future advancement. It must require a lot of knowledge as a stepping stone to touch the top areas of alchemy.

But the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon like the Imperial Capital of Lu Ying brought together the top professionals of the entire empire.

The Regardi family, the key original owner, seems to have a mansion in the imperial capital...

Su Lun's thoughts flashed in his mind for a moment, and he planned to wait until he had a certain degree of self-protection ability, and he was probably going to have a look.

"Oh, right!"

At this time, Jike seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and added excitedly: "There is also the relics room of the'demi-god' Sir Isaac a thousand years ago. Last time we were organized by the Preparatory Academy to visit, I also added I've seen it with my own eyes!"

When Su Lun heard this, his eyes were suddenly startled, and he whispered unconsciously, "Sir Isaac's relic?"

Sir Isaac left a lot of manuscripts. In the auction house in Old Lingdon, one page can sell for three to five hundred gold crowns.

The Raphael family developed Old Lingdun for a century, and many treasures of the dungeon flowed to the ground through them.

"Yes indeed!"

Not everyone is eligible to visit the Royal Academy. Jike wanted to tell this rune teacher from a remote southern county about the prosperity of the imperial capital, and said: "Sir Isaac is the greatest inventor in the history of modern civilization. A philosopher, biologist, great alchemist... He has created countless genius inventions. The library management of the Royal Academy has a special library for the collection of jazz relics. There are also many handwritten manuscripts and design drawings.. ."

Su Lun thought of something, and asked: "Among those relics...is there a leather notebook that looks like a ‘living thing’ that’s braving for black air?"

Hearing this, Jimmy was taken aback: "Hey...Mr. Nicholas, have you also seen the [Manuscript of Tongshen]?"

He frowned for a moment, then continued: "There is indeed such a notebook in the collection room! The teachers said that it was a research manuscript of a god-level colonial costume invented by Sir Isaac. Oh, I remember it now. Clearly, that is a very weird note... Unfortunately, I haven't seen the content."

"..."

Although Su Lun heard the name of this [Manuscript of the Gods] a bit unfamiliar, he immediately guessed in his heart that the eight achievements are one of the five [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscripts]!

It turns out that there is also one in the Royal Academy of Lu Ying?

Not surprisingly, there is another one in the Regardi family...

Adding one of the five manuscripts in his hand, Su Lun now knows the whereabouts of the three.

"It seems that the Royal Academy of Luying really has to go to..."

Hearing this, Su Lun looked at the sea in the distance, his eyes gradually becoming abyssal.

......

In a short while, the sailing boat is about to dock.

"Kadulangte" is a super large harbor city built on the hillside.

Seen from the sky, like a long boot.

The natural deep-water port is at the heel of the boots, with cliffs on both sides, easy to defend and hard to attack.

A long distance away, people can hear the crowd on the dock.

Su Lun stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the city in the harbor in the distance, and muttered in his heart: "The level of science and technology of the world city on the ground does not seem to be too high."

The city in front of you is like a medieval castle complex, with a little ancient Greek architectural style, with large tracts of white and blue as the main color. With thick and textured white rock walls, tall pillars and blue spires, the streets are very crowded.

It seems that it is not much different from the thousand-year-old architectural style in the ruins of Dawn City.

However, there are a lot of steel elements in this kind of castle-like city.

You can see steam locomotives on the bridges between the islands. There are also various steel bridges in the city. There is also a floating airship floating above the city...

The most eye-catching is the various giant forts built on the hillside. Long cannons and short cannons are densely packed, arming the city like a hedgehog...looks like a mixture of magic and industrial society.

From the perspective of urban architecture alone, the level of civilization of Catalunya lags far behind that of the cyber-style high-rise buildings in the inner city of Old Lingdon.

At this time, Su Lun suddenly heard Mr. Jing's evaluation from his side: "It has been a thousand years, and the city is still like this. The backward aristocratic system of power has long proved to be a stumbling block to the development of social civilization. These nobles are fighting for their rights. Pleasure, not being enterprising, has actually stalled the development of civilization for a thousand years. Isn’t it true that the passage of the plane will be broken, and human beings will be enslaved by the strong on the different plane..."

Her tone was calm, but Su Lun heard an angry sigh.

Sure enough, people standing at different positions saw completely different things.

Mr. Mirror, a person who fought to guard the front line in the plane a thousand years ago, saw the entire human race and alchemy civilization.

Judging from what Su Lun knew, the aristocratic centralization system of the Lu British Empire is indeed quite backward.

The nobles have concentrated more than 90% of the resources of the society.

Except for population expansion, no matter alchemy or technology, there is not much progress compared to a thousand years ago.

No!

Not even as good!

At least, in the realm of alchemy, no one has reached the level of Sir Isaac a thousand years ago.

The Malfa Empire only changed after the mechanical revolution of the last hundred years.

Mr. Mirror shook his head without saying much.

At this moment, the sailing boat passed a reef with a lighthouse, and Surendo took a look.

Because the lighthouse is like the national flag of 10,000 hung, there are hundreds of different pirate flags, some new ones, some faded after the wind and sun... It seems that the time span of hanging up is very long.

There are a few more air-dried corpses!

Look at the corpse's costume, these people are pirates?

Because the ship was about to dock, Captain Benson also stepped onto the deck.

Seeing doubts on Su Lun’s face, he explained: “That’s the leader of the Blood Skull Pirates, “Blood Hand” Stewart, a Tier 5 professional, a big pirate who used to be very active in this sea. Many **** crimes have been committed, and the crimes are extremely heinous..."

The merchants hate most, naturally, these pirates who burned, killed, and looted.

paused, his tone was not polite, and he said, "These **** pirates were sent to the gallows!"

Su Lun also understood the "landmark building" that this warning means full of meaning. Is this warning people about the fate of being pirates?

Tier 5 pirate, the corpse was just hoisted and dried?

He suddenly thought of Qianjo.

After the young gambling addict disembarked, she didn't follow Mr. Black and the others, saying that she was going to form her own pirate group.

Although she wanted to be a "Grand Thief", the Grand Thief was also a thief, and she would be sent to the gallows if she caught it.

...

The ship entered the port and stopped in a dense sea of ​​ships.

Sulun left the Bensons and walked into the city first.

There used to be a thick high wall at the pier. Entering the city requires identity registration and verification.

There was a long queue outside the city gate, and the soldiers in silver-gray armors were shining as people entering the city.

The process is not complicated, take out the ID card to show it, and then put your hand on a crystal ball.

It’s a bit like going through an immigration passport in a previous life. The soldiers guarding the city will ask a few words casually. After passing the verification, they will stamp the ID.

Su Lun had already prepared.

Forging documents is not difficult for him.

What's more, in addition to the unified identity certificate of the cities near the imperial capital of the Lu Ying Empire, all other territories have their own hometown certificates. There are many strange things... and most of them are backward pure paper certificates. The only anti-counterfeiting certificate represents the lord. Bronzing heraldic pattern.

But looking at the crystal ball, Su Lun raised his brow slightly and identified it.

【Inferior energy measuring crystal】

Detailed explanation: Elemental crystals that can only be used to judge the rank position.

Seems to be in the city for high-level pirates, or for other purposes...

But it is not a big problem if it only detects the order position.

Su Lun, the second-tier, is not very prominent among professionals.

After the tax, he glanced at Mr. Jing who was holding his hand. If the seventh and eighth steps were detected, it would immediately cause a sensation.

Mr.    Mirror was very calm and responded with a faint smile.

Obviously she doesn't care about this kind of energy crystal.

The two lined up and entered the city slowly.

While queuing, Su Lun also specially observed most of the crowd of adventurers in the past.

Most of them are dressed in traditional professions, but there are a lot of guns, but not many robotic arms.

Even if there is, the mechanical device is about the same level of science and technology as the old Lingdun outer city This is the first city that Sulun came to contact with the world on the ground, giving him the feeling that this Luying Empire , Is the kind of ancient empire with "twilight", like an old and sleepy lion.

After a short while, it was Su Lun's turn for the audit.

The soldiers guarding the city have to audit tens of thousands of people entering and leaving every day, and their expressions have long been numb: "Show your credentials, take off your hat, and put your hands on the crystal ball!"

approached, and Su Lun saw that there were wanted orders hanging on the notice board on the city wall.

In the huge North Sea, apart from the notorious "King of the North Sea" fleet, other large and small pirates are also numerous.

On this bounty list, most of them are pirates.

Su Lun took off his hat, then he put his hand on the crystal ball, and the crystal ball glowed a faint blue light.

He wore a plain white suit, probably because of this outfit, and the voice of the guard guarding the city was quite polite.

The guard on the side looked at Su Lun's face. He didn't match up with any wanted criminals, and didn't ask much, so he stamped his household registration certificate: Tier 2, pass.

Su Lun cleared the level smoothly, but Mr. Jing took off the sombrero that covered half of his face, and the guards immediately looked straight.
