Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 65: Bumper harvest of knowledge

Chapter 65: Bumper harvest of knowledge

A headshot.

Su'en looked at the "mist" on Jack's body in front of him and swallowed it casually.

"Hmm..."

After digesting the fragnts of those mories in his mind, he exclaid in surprise, a hint of joy appearing on his face.

"Obtained 6 mory fragnts of 'Jack Edward'."

"You obtained so information: 'Damn it, if sothing happens to Rena, all the family's investnts will go down the drain...'"

"You have mastered a large amount of 'alchemy knowledge'..."

"You have mastered so 'basic, interdiate, and advanced potion knowledge'..."

"You have gained so 'interdiate mystery knowledge'..."

"You have mastered fluent Gnide language..."

"You have acquired so 'advanced firearms theory knowledge', firearm experience

365."

"ntal power

0.11."

The mory fragnts obtained from this corpse suddenly made Su'en feel like his mind had gained a lot more.

After a mont, he snapped out of that dazed feeling and couldn't help but exclaim, "The knowledge reserve of the students at the Black Tower Academy is so exaggerated..."

This was the first ti Su'en had gained so much "knowledge" from the sa corpse.

The useful knowledge obtained from the corpses in the outer city's arena was very scarce. It was already good enough to harvest so combat experience. The mories of the gladiators living in the lower levels were ninety percent filled with useless information, scenes of pleasure quarters, gambling dens, taverns... and various intimate scenes with won.

The stripped mory fragnts had a low chance of containing experience and skills, but a high chance of containing these low-quality contents.

However, Jack's mories were the complete opposite.

The alchemy knowledge he had studied for many years at the academy occupied a large portion of his mories. With just a simple extraction, he could dig up a "treasure".

Upon thinking about it, Su'en also understood.

As the top noble academy in Old Lingdun City, the Black Tower Alchemy Academy's students had no survival pressure. Their only task was to cram various knowledge. The students had top professionals as their teachers and could access the richest alchemical classics and scrolls. Naturally, they were the small group of people who possessed the highest quality alchemical knowledge.

Harvesting the soul fragnts of this Jack made Su'en feel like he had saved several years of hard study.

Moreover, many of them were advanced alchemical knowledge that even people in the outer city couldn't learn with money.

Just the "firearms theory knowledge" alone filled in the gaps in Su'en's theoretical understanding. Before this, he could use many firearms techniques, but he didn't understand their principles. He couldn't be considered a complete master.

Now that he had filled in this theoretical knowledge, his firearm experience also skyrocketed, instantly reaching Advanced Firearms Mastery 487/2000.

Su'en was also curious about what kind of scene the legendary "firearms master" would be when his experience was filled.

And that Gnide language had also changed from "beginner" to "fluent". There were also improvents in mystery studies and potion studies. Although they didn't seem to be useful for the ti being, it was still a decent harvest. More knowledge was always better.

......

Su'en collected the glowing "employnt materials" and "alchemy equipnt" from Jack's body. They were all silver-quality materials. Along with the storage ring, the two runic flathrowers on his waist, combat suit, advanced gas mask, night vision goggles, and protective gear were all stripped off.

These were all good things, but they couldn't see the light of day.

Just talking about the two runic flathrowers with fla runes all over them, they were obviously much better than the gun Su'en had obtained before, the "Three-Headed Ghost". They felt very smooth in his hands, with superior sights, stability, recoil, and durability.

They looked very tempting, but Su'en couldn't use any of these things, and he couldn't even sell them on the black market to cash in.

Once others discovered that these things had entered the market, it would expose the fact that he killed Jack.

The "fake death plan" would also fail.

......

He hadn't planned to give up his current identity as a mber of the Cross Society because he didn't think things were that bad.

Now that he knew the identity of that "Rena," he knew he had to make a decision.

That young lady had a significant background, the only daughter of the top Lingdun City financial conglorate, the "Reyes Family".

Even for people from the outer city, this financial conglorate was well-known. The conglorate operated two of the most famous companies, the "Old Lingdun Resident Drinking Water Supply Company" and the "Blackde Mining Group".

One controlled the residents' drinking water, and the other controlled the developnt and trading of most of Old Lingdun's minerals. The scale of their assets was unimaginable.

If soone wanted to kill Rena, it must be related to interests. After all, she was the first heir of the conglorate.

This kind of clich power struggle plot, whether in novels or in reality, Su'en was already used to it.

He wasn't interested in getting involved.

But because he was involved in this inexplicable conspiracy, Su'en's current situation had beco very bad.

Those people chose to ambush him during the trial, naturally considering all factors. They killed the ntor first, then released this relentless and relentless pursuit of a monster...

In everyone's eyes, Rena was as good as dead.

Once she died, it would definitely involve many people.

As a guide, Su'en would definitely be implicated.

In the eyes of the major financial conglorates in the inner city, the lives of people from the outer city were not worth ntioning. They wouldn't listen to your explanation of whether you were powerless. If the young lady died, soone had to take the bla and be buried with her.

Even if he couldn't die, once he was interrogated and the identity of the original host was exposed, Su'en's fate would be very miserable.

Therefore, although it seed unrelated to him, he actually had no choice.

To be on the safe side, he decided to "run away".

But the Cross Society had taken him in, and whether it was the Thousand Stripes or Captain Kay, they treated him well.

Even if Su'en ran away, he didn't want to involve them.

Now that this guy Jack forced him to go deep into the underground cavern to save soone, everything was justified.

Both of them would "die" in the underground cavern, with no trace of their bones left. This was the best outco.

A small guide sacrificing his life to save soone, what could those inner city financial conglorates say?

By then, the Cross Society would be minimally affected.Su'en felt that he had done his best, and no one else could have done better.

......

As Su'en was collecting the spoils of war, he was already planning his life after leaving.

Giving up his current identity ant giving up everything he was familiar with.

This would be a very difficult process. He couldn't reveal his shooting skills, lifestyle, current image... everything had to start over.

Feeling a bit of a headache, Su'en didn't think too much about it.

He cleaned up the murder scene to avoid leaving any traces. Then he carried the body and walked towards the depths of the cave.

Since he planned to run away, there was sothing even more important he had to do now.

That was to find the [Forbidden Object] - the scythe!

Without his identity, he still needed to take the treasure.

Several students and tutors with sensitive identities had died. Before their bodies were found, the big shots in the inner city would definitely organize a large-scale search and clean-up of the cave.

If high-ranking professionals ca down, the mutated monsters in the cave wouldn't be able to stop them.

The scythe was nearby now, and it might be found by soone.

So, Su'en planned to find it and take it away before he ran away.

This was the best opportunity, and perhaps the only one.

......

After carrying the body for a while, Su'en saw a vertical hole on the side of the cave.

In his mory, this seed to lead to the deep underground.

Hearing the rustling sounds of monsters, he threw the body with treated wounds down. In the cave, fresh bodies were the favorite food of the mutated monsters. The sll of blood would attract nearby monsters. It wouldn't be long before even the bones were gnawed clean.

Su'en didn't think too much about it and continued to move deeper into the cave.

Fortunately, the previous battle had cleared most of the zombies in this area, so the journey was smooth.

Then, following the mory route he had harvested, he arrived near the cave where the scythe was located.

This part of the cave was connected to a part of the city's sewer system. He could hear the sound of water, and the air was filled with a strong stench.

Suddenly, Su'en saw traces of sothing like oil on the ground and his expression beca serious: "Those 'transforming bugs' actually followed us here?"

He hadn't seen any traces along the way. It seed that Assistant Rosa and a girl nad Rena had led them from another tunnel. They were probably also trying to find a way to the surface, but it seed to be blocked.

"I hope we don't run into them."

Su'en muttered to himself.

Although he knew that those transforming bugs hardly attacked others, it was better not to encounter them.

Not far away, as he was about to reach the place where the scythe was, Su'en saw signs of battle.

Several spider-like mutated monster bodies lay in the tunnel. The bodies looked like they had been blasted by firearms, with green blood flowing out. Upon closer inspection, there was a strange human face pattern on the abdon of these spider bodies.
