Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 1: Kidnapping

Published:

“This is going to be a bit troublesome. The danger level of this cursed space is likely to reach ‘A level’. Without this guy, there is no chance that we would have to explain here…”

“Boss, you just said that there is such a ruin under the ‘D33 Wasteland’ that even the Hunting Guild has not recorded. This shabby manor is actually a rare ‘A-level cursed space’. What the hell, boy?” Who is he and why is he here?”

“To be able to banish him from the big shots in the inner city and put a reward on his mouth to silence him, his identity must not be simple. It’s a pity. I thought I could get some secrets out of this kid before killing him, so I followed him. So long. I didn’t expect to get into trouble…”

“Hey…it seems like he’s not dead yet.”

………..

“Hoo…ho…”

The chest was heaving violently, as if waking up from a nightmare of drowning, Su Lun opened his eyes suddenly.

He gasped for air, and the strong feeling of suffocation gradually dissipated.

My eyes gradually focused on a strange room.

“Where is this…”

Su Lun wanted to struggle to get up, but when he lowered his head, he found that he was tied tightly to a wooden chair and could not move.

The strong smell of blood came to my nose. When I looked at my situation again, I saw it was terrible.

The white linen shirt had many blood stains and open wounds. What’s even more terrifying is that a sharp dagger was nailed to the handle of the chair on each palm of his hands, and scarlet blood was gurgling out.

The severe pain caused by the struggle stung his nerves like a tide…

“I was kidnapped?”

Without any time to think about why he saw this scene after waking up, Su Lun glanced at the two unkind-looking guys in the room.

A bald man with purple lips and dark circles, a bald man with smoky makeup, and a thin green-haired comb-headed man with a nose ring and earrings.

Wearing black leather jackets and old leather pants full of iron nails, they look like two punk enthusiasts.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the weapons they wear.

“The gun…is it a gangster?”

Su Lun looked slightly sideways in his heart.

The two guys had large revolvers on their holsters, and there were simple and mysterious complex inscriptions on the guns.

But what made him even more strange was that the right arm of the bald man was actually equipped with a strange… mechanical arm?

This robotic arm has a strong dark industrial style, with almost all parts exposed in the air. The white paint spray on the shoulders has blurred words “DH-031” written on it. Brass gears, power transmission bearings, mechanical joints, air valves with instrument panels, high-pressure pipes…the joints are still covered with black lubricating oil.

The front end of the robotic arm also has a fist-sized spiral muzzle and cross sight. It seems that this mechanical arm is still a hand-held individual artillery.

Of course, these metal parts are also engraved with some complex runes.

What Su Lun couldn’t understand the most was that there was white steam coming out of the exhaust pipe of the robotic arm. It seemed to be a power device?

“Is this… steam-powered machinery?”

Su Lun frowned slightly, feeling that he saw something incredible.

In this day and age, do people still play with antiques like steam machinery?

There was not much fear, but more confusion in his eyes.

Making a movie?

No!

The severe pain in his palm told Su Lun that he had indeed been kidnapped!

…….

“I remember I clicked on a strange email and my vision went dark…and then I woke up and came here?”

Su Lun woke up in a strange place and didn’t have a clue.

No matter how hard he tried to recall, there was no memory of the “kidnapping” process in his mind.

Su Lun felt that something was wrong.

He wanted to find more clues, and his eyes fell back into the house.

Dazzling crystal chandeliers, beautifully carved solid wood furniture, various gold-plated metal handles… Rows of gilded books are neatly placed on the bookshelf, and there is a black and white family photo on the wall…

The details are full of aristocratic style.

“It looks like it is a study room, so it can be inferred that the area of ​​​​the house will not be small. The retro style of the decoration is very detailed. The owner should be a very particular British retro style lover, or maybe this is a European Old castle. But in short…very rich.”

Su Lun quickly made a guess in his mind.

If you are so rich, why would you kidnap yourself?

The painful sting from the two sharp daggers nailed to his hands always reminded him that the two guys in front of him were absolutely vicious kidnappers.

“What are these two guys… kidnapping me for?”

Su Lun’s pupils focused and fell on the two people in the room again.

Whether it’s their European faces, the retro equipment on their bodies, or the steam robotic arms… everything seems strange.

Of course, what was even more strange was that Su Lun looked up and saw his own shadow in the shiny mirror-like ceiling of the roof – a brown-haired boy who looked handsome even though his face was covered in blood!

“Damn it, how come I…have become a foreigner?!”

Su Lun vaguely guessed that something strange had happened to him.

Moreover, when he woke up and opened his eyes just now, he also found some strange words on his retina.

Blinking, he confirmed that it was not an illusion.

……

Thoughts flashed through his mind for a moment, and at this moment, a vicious shout brought Su Lun’s thoughts back to reality.

“Hey! Boy, I know you’re awake, don’t pretend to be stupid!”

The skinny man with the cockscomb stared at him with a fierce look, and shouted: “I will give you one last chance. Tell me honestly how you knew about this ruins and why you came here, otherwise…”

While speaking, this guy grabbed the handle of the dagger that pierced Su Lun’s left hand and twisted it in a warning manner.

“Hiss~”

A bone-piercing pain like mincing meat shot straight through his forehead. Su Lun’s forehead was instantly covered with cold sweat, and he took a sharp breath.

He immediately understood that these two guys were “interrogating” and seemed to want to know something from his own mouth.

Interrogation?

Information?

Text on retina…

At this moment, an idea flashed, and the clues in my mind connected together.

“These guys are not kidnapping me, but the ‘original owner’ of the kidnapping!”

Su Lun suddenly woke up and roughly guessed his situation.

At this time, a bold idea came to his mind: “I seem to have… traveled through time?”

Although this idea is outrageous, it is also the most reasonable explanation.

Whether he has the body of a blond boy, or the two punk-style “kidnappers” in front of him, or the conversation he can understand but doesn’t know what language it is, it all proves that this is no longer the original world.

As a senior fan of online literature, time travel is not a difficult thing to accept.

After a moment of shock, Su Lun became calmer.

Traveling requires GG. What the **** is this opening?

…….

“Last chance? Haha…”

The original owner had already been killed by these two guys once, and Su Lun didn’t take any chances.

The two kidnappers in front of him could even use incapacitating methods during interrogation. He had no doubt that after they got the information they wanted, they would kill him like a cockroach.

Looking at the joking expressions of the two, his eyes gradually turned cold, and he thought to himself: “Are they going to kill someone again…”

Su Lun knew in his heart that these two guys had murderous intentions early in the morning.

It was like playing an immersive horror game. As soon as it started, he felt the adrenaline surge of tension.

Death?

Haha, many years ago, I had the awareness to face death.

Because of some special experiences in his childhood, he lacked the ability to manage certain “dangerous personalities”. At this moment, facing the threat of death, Su Lun’s body that was tense due to the sting completely relaxed, as if all the negative emotions of fear and panic no longer existed.

Whether it is time travel or not, no matter what the current interrogation situation is…

Su Lun knew very well that if he wanted to survive, he had only one choice.

He couldn’t avoid these two kidnappers.

And these two kidnappers had real death threats against him.

Thinking together, a certain thought suppressed in my heart became more and more uncontrollable, and Su Lun’s eyes gradually became violent.

“So, the only thing is…go to hell!”

The next moment, the corners of his mouth raised in a crazy arc, and there was no longer any fear of death on his face.

On the contrary… I became faintly excited.

It’s as if he has changed his personality!
