The faint blue fire flashed at the mouth of the mechanical puppet, and with a deafening roar, a pointed cone-shaped bullet roared out. After exiting the chamber, it immediately disintegrated and split into multiple irregular pieces.
shrapnel to increase its lethality.
A figure flew out and blocked the path of the shotgun. It turned out to be the hunter who had lost his hand just now, using his body to meet the blooming flower of death.
In this extremely difficult ancient era, almost everything required collective efforts to complete. The many days of getting along created a subtle friendship between everyone, and they became teammates who can support each other.
Although he didn't know what would happen if he died in the dream copy, and whether he would be unable to wake up. He was still unsure about many things, but he knew very well that losing one of his hands would be a burden for the rest of the mission. Then
Then leave the chance of life to others.
In an instant, the alchemy bullet shattered half of the hunter's body. A yellow-brown mist instantly filled the air. It seemed to be some kind of corrosive gas, and it seemed that flesh and bones were instantly vaporized by the high temperature.
result.
The smell of blood and burning smell mixed together, making it disgusting.
"Get down, roll and dodge!" A hunter roared, reminding his companions to avoid this sudden attack. However, the alchemy puppet's attack did not stop.
Almost at the same time, the armor plate of another puppet suddenly opened, revealing a honeycomb-like metal slot, from which fireflies-like light spots spewed out, drawing bright arcs in the air and flying some distance away.
Finally, a dazzling light curtain exploded in the crowd.
Just like the magic mechanics involving the structure and power of alchemical puppets, alchemical chemistry is also one of the important branches of alchemy. The dragon clan that has mastered the advanced alchemy can naturally fully develop gunpowder and guns, rather than just alchemy.
The range of the sword.
The bullets used by these alchemy puppets are masterpieces of dragon alchemy. Thanks to the application of elemental energy, the rune fire system and alchemical charges developed by the dragon are more powerful than any high-energy explosive today.
Although I have worked in the alchemy workshop here for many days, the assembly line work that everyone is responsible for has always been the most insignificant part, which is isolated from most processes. I know nothing about it, so it is naturally difficult to do it.
Take adequate precautions.
In fact, dragons can also use gunpowder firearms. This is something that has not been recorded in any known ancient books. It simply refreshes people's inherent views on dragons. But if you think about it carefully, it is completely possible to develop with their technical level.
something that comes out.
It is unimaginable that there is a large-scale heavy industry that is no less than that of modern society, but machine guns and heavy artillery have not been invented. However, why are there no resurrected dragons in later generations equipped with alchemical firearms?
…
After the first hunter died tragically, all the remaining people immediately realized the enemy's superiority in firepower and rolled away to avoid it. Several others responded with the same explosion, and several words of spirit? Yin Lei blocked the firefly bombs.
Before the curtain, it has the effect of instant air wall defense.
Among the people present, only Bai Daosheng, an expert in martial arts, was bold. He swayed and huddled behind the dragon dwarf. He cleverly used the opponent's huge and tough body as a shield, first dragging him to the ground and then pushing him.
Then he rolled towards the alchemy puppet.
In the blink of an eye, he was close to the enemy two or three meters away. He twisted his body suddenly and cleverly avoided another round of attacks from the puppet. His palms were thrust out and retracted as fast as lightning. Every move was extremely precise.
, hitting the key point of the alchemy puppet.
"Bang bang bang bang!" Continuous muffled sounds echoed in the night sky. The shells of several machines were bulged and cracked. Many running gears and parts were hit and squeezed together, colliding with each other and deforming, making sharp friction and explosions.
One after another.
With the fire splashing again and again, various parts were thrown away by the leaking steam. The alchemy puppet's increasingly broken body eventually emitted a shrill wail, and fell to the ground with thick smoke billowing from its body.
cigarette.
Such astonishing destructive power is not the skill loading provided by Zhao Qing, but the ancient martial arts originated from the East, from the "eye punching" technique passed down by the ancestors of the Bai family thousands of years ago, to the superb power movement techniques developed to this day.
This type of magical ancient martial arts that has been circulating in the East is based on the imitation of "eye punching". It is obviously inseparable from the king of the earth and the mountain. It is practiced to such an advanced level that it is enough for an ordinary mixed race to break a stone tablet with one punch.
.
…
Although these machines were killed, the excessive noise in this battle caused a chain reaction. In the blink of an eye, the sound of many gears turning and metal friction could be heard in the distance. It was the sound of a large number of new alchemy puppets.
is activated.
"This kind of alchemy puppet is mainly driven by steam, and it takes a period of time to warm up before it can enter the state." Bai Daosheng frowned, quickly analyzed the enemy's situation, looked around at everyone, and said solemnly: "We still have time to retreat."
"Have you given up on opening the warehouse?" Someone sighed: "You finally got the key, and you just ran away without getting anything?"
"We don't know how many machines that can transform into alchemy puppets will be on the way to the warehouse. The risk is too great."
Another hunter reminded: "The situation is urgent. The most important thing now is to protect ourselves and cover up the matter as much as possible to prevent the dragons from becoming suspicious of the 'primitive' community."
"So what should we do? Disguise it as a disappearance case?" While everyone was clearing away traces of the battle and discussing plans, Bai Daosheng had already taken action quickly.
He took out a tough rope and quickly tied the remains of several alchemy puppets to the unconscious dragon dwarf. Then he pulled the rope hard and dragged it towards the original route, and signaled to others
Follow him quickly and evacuate the scene as soon as possible.
Everyone followed Bai Daosheng's footsteps with trust, quickly passed through the twists and turns of the passage, and came to the side of the giant smelting blast furnace they had seen before. There was a wide opening there, like a huge black hole, swallowing everything.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Bai Daosheng did not hesitate at all. He directed everyone to throw the remains of the alchemy puppet and the dragon dwarf into the furnace one by one.
With a "clang" sound, the furnace mouth closed automatically. Immediately afterwards, some shimmering lines began to appear on the surface of the side of the blast furnace, which were the runes on the furnace. They lit up one by one, and finally converged into a dazzling beam of light.
, shooting directly into the depth of the furnace.
Since someone in the team had just casually learned a "temperature measurement technique" created by Zhao Qing, everyone knew that the maximum temperature of this smelting furnace exceeded 3,000 degrees, and the bones of ordinary dragons could not leave any traces.
.
Bai Daosheng waited quietly until the last trace of firelight disappeared deep into the furnace.
After completing all this, he did not pause for a moment, but quickly opened the manhole cover next to the furnace, jumped into it without hesitation, and disappeared into the darkness. Others followed closely and jumped into the well one by one.
, sneaked into the sewer system that extends in all directions.
Because it is close to the smelting blast furnace and various gas pipeline cooling pipes, the temperature of the sewer here is quite high, the inside is hot and humid, and the air is filled with an indescribable fishy smell.
But everyone no longer cared about this, they only knew that this was the safest hiding place at present. They moved along the dark and damp passage, carefully avoiding possible traps and enemies.
Those violent noises not long ago naturally attracted more than just a group of low-IQ alchemy puppets. The dragon patrol troops in the outer city were truly irresistible. With the equipment of a small and medium-sized warehouse in the industrial zone,
It's simply not enough to fight against.
"Boss, when did you find out that this sewer can lead to the outside of the city?" After walking a few hundred meters, a hunter finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked as he walked: "With this secret passage
, we may have a chance to open the warehouse again..."
"When did I say that this was heading outside the city?" Bai Daosheng replied coldly: "If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the road leading to the inner city."
"The road to the inner city?" Everyone was puzzled: "Is it because the inner city is safer than the outer city and there are fewer dragons to search? But when we get there, we can't move around as normal at all. I'm afraid there will be nothing to eat. Stay here
It won't last long in the sewer."
The digestive ability of dragons is outrageous. There is no need to excrete food after eating it. Although the sewer area is dirty and smelly, it actually contains no nutrients at all.
"Have any of you ever doubted the authenticity of the 'Dream Copy'?" Bai Daosheng changed the subject: "Now I am basically certain that this statement is true. We are indeed moving in something like a dream, and
There is a high probability that he will not really die."
"The evidence is that I saw with my own eyes that after Zhang Shengping was hit by a shotgun, his broken body suddenly disappeared. And when I then used the 'Great Soul Searching Hand', I didn't feel any residual mental thoughts at all.
It’s like all traces of his existence have been completely erased.”
"This cannot be something that can be done in the real world." He further analyzed: "The only explanation is that Xiao Zhang did not die at all, but just woke up from a dream. He who died only
It’s just a projection from a higher dimension.”
"So that's it!" Everyone felt confused as they listened to Bai Daosheng continue: "So, since the 'dream copy' is true, we naturally don't have to pay too much attention to death here, but should use our own training to grow and return to the world.
The most important thing is to carry out the so-called mission.”
"When the current plan has an accident and we have to retreat and flee, instead of seeking survival outside the city, it is better to sneak directly into the deeper core area of the inner city to explore more information needed by 'above' and strive to make every
Death comes as valuable as possible."
"Of course, there are still many of our companions who are staying in the wild camp. When exploring, we should also pay attention to eliminating future troubles and not completely cutting off their way into the city. Since it is a group mission, we must not fail to consider the collective
Performance."
Having said that, Bai Daosheng himself is actually quite suspicious of the "Dream Copy". He is far from believing that he will not really die as much as he claimed. He only made this series of inferences logically.
As far as he knows, in a typical mental system "Dream Tapir", if someone believes that he died in the nightmare created by the Dream Tapir, then his consciousness will really die, and he will gradually cool down in the real world.
A cold corpse.
For this reason, it may be difficult for Bai Daosheng to convince himself to fully believe it, and he is very worried, but for many teammates, he still tries his best to guide them to be fearless of death, in order to counteract the effects of such spiritual speech spirits and avoid bad results.
.
…
"Nearly twenty days have passed, and only one person has died. The quality of these hunters is pretty good."
At the same time, Zhao Qing was also thinking secretly outside, and asked Zhang Shengping, who was about to wake up, to return to the Fantasy Square in the front, planning to gather four or five people before talking.
In her opinion, even if everyone dies in one round, only 14 strands of golden energy can roughly complete the exploration mission within a hundred rounds, which is considered an acceptable level.
At such a small price, we were able to explore the relationship between the dragon people in the area at that time, the architectural details of the dragon city, many technological creations of the dragon civilization, and understand its industrial development. It is undoubtedly very worthwhile.
.
At present, it seems that the steampunk industry developed based on alchemical branches such as magical machinery, alchemical biology, and alchemical chemistry is generally the technical level of the dragon civilization at that time, including many high-end technologies such as alchemy puppets and mantle drilling.
The reason why it has not been electrified and informatized and seems to be far behind modern human society is mainly because the turbulent flow of elements can easily interfere with these technological products and cause them to be damaged. I feel that there is no future in this direction, so I voluntarily chose to give up and specialize in alchemy.
and steam industry.
Especially the alchemy puppets, which seem to be quite popular, but I don’t know what their upper limit is, and whether they can be used to make top-level strategic weapons - they are just a group of machines that use guns and alchemy bullets, so they are not qualified to intervene in high-end battles.
Insignificant in terms of force.
As for the mixed-race hunters on his side, who fought a few miscellaneous soldiers and had poor results, Zhao Qing said that it was not a big problem and there was still broad room for development. He would make up for the lack of equipment and targeted training.
Combat power can be greatly improved.
In her opinion, many mixed-race spirit spirits are actually very powerful, but their development and utilization rate is too low. For example, the defense of Wuchen Land and Junyan is no less than that of the sweeping monk's body-protecting air wall.
The power of the latter is comparable to Bi Xuan's Yanyang Dharma.
However, the hybrids who hold them will probably not be able to defeat any innate master in actual combat, and will be suppressed in many aspects. This is due to their single language and spirit and too many shortcomings. If they can make up for it through practicing martial arts, they can improve their abilities.
The degree of control is completely different.
Furthermore, by integrating dragon blood and true energy, practicing, purifying, and advancing together, this is a very rapid path to growth in cultivation, which can fully develop the ability of this "special physique".
"The failure to detect the threat of the alchemy puppet outside the house resulted in a failure in the work. This is certainly unfortunate, but from the perspective of stimulating the growth of these people, it is a hurdle that must be passed."
Zhao Qing was thoughtful, but he didn't know if he could gain anything new by forcefully breaking into a deeper area of the city? Or would he be directly discovered by the patrol team and implicate other hunters?
Speaking of which, there were many aspects of the performance of these hunters that exceeded her expectations. There were actually some who specially observed and recorded a large amount of data on prehistoric creatures such as mammoths and woolly rhinoceros, and planned to write several papers for publication after their return.
Changed job from hunter to professor at a certain college.
Looking at the problem from the perspective of the outside world, it has been confirmed that this dream copy is the location of Dogland Island more than 10,000 years ago. Perhaps, we can also go to the bottom of the North Sea to dig and dig to see if there is any
No remains of the Dragon Clan?
…
In the dream copy, half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone was walking around in the sewer, and finally stopped in front of a huge deep pool. They realized that this place seemed to be the hub of the sewer system, so they looked for an upward pipe.
, and began to climb upward.
Climbing to the end of the pipe, Bai Daosheng clung to the manhole cover and listened to the surrounding movements for a while. Then he quietly opened a gap in the cover, looked outside, and glanced around, trying to figure out where he was.
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly condensed and stopped at the extremely gorgeous furnishings outside. He realized that looking towards the center from a giant bronze beam that covered most of the manhole cover, the place was actually covered with exquisite statues of gods and murals.
It is the interior of a magnificent and solemn temple.
In the center of the entire palace, there is a giant statue of the lush World Tree, more than thirty meters high, which is undoubtedly the most eye-catching presence here.
