"Whew~Whew~"

Continuously trotting with weights, while also maintaining the detection of alchemy magic, Lawson consumed a lot of physical strength, and his breathing became a little short.

"Take a break, won't you?" Lilith whispered.

"Not necessarily. Also, don't talk, it will distract me. Lawson shook his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the sewage flow behind his body accelerate violently, and there was a rapid turbulence, and something swam rapidly in it.

"The water ghost is coming!" Rosen's heart tightened, and the muzzle of the spiral troll suddenly turned around.

"Wow~~"

With a loud bang, an arm-thick jet of water suddenly shot out of the sewage in the waterway, and the target was Rosen's back.

The undead's ultra-fast reaction worked, and in a few moments, Lawson's alchemy magic power probe, instantly determined that the person who came was not a water ghost, but a column of water carrying huge power.

'Another temptation! But the water column is fast, and if Lilith is hit, she may be able to carry it. ’

At this moment, he still did not shoot, but gritted his teeth sharply and rushed forward with all his strength.

"Bang~~"

The jet of water rushed past Lilith's quilt and smashed against the wall of the underground corridor, making a loud noise, and breaking several pieces of the green bricks on the wall, and some splashes of sewage hit the side of Lawson's face, and Lawson felt as if his cheek was pricked by pins and needles.

With this power, if it were to hit Lilith in the back, she would definitely vomit blood and die.

Lilith shook her whole body, but she bit her lip and held the screams of horror in her throat.

After the water arrow, Lawson felt an object rushing up from the sewage behind him.

His alchemy magic could not detect the inner body of this object, which was enough to show that it was the real body of the water ghost!

It was too late, it was too soon, and while the thought was still spinning in Rosen's mind, there was a loud 'bang' from the sewage again, and a black shadow came out of the sewage like an arrow and slammed into Rosen's back.

"I'm waiting for you!"

Rosen's right hand turned sharply, and the spiral troll was roughly aimed in the direction of the water ghost, the situation was critical, and he didn't care about using alchemy magic to cover up the gunshot, and directly pulled the trigger.

"Bang~~Bang~~Bang~~~"

Bright gunfire and deafening gunfire erupted together, and the hot alloy steel ball flew out at high speed in a radial shape centered on the muzzle, completely enveloping the narrow passage, forming an impenetrable web of death.

The reason why the Spiral Troll was chosen instead of the meat grinder was because the shotgun has a wide attack range, in the narrow underground tunnel, there is no need for precise aiming, and the shotgun bullet carries a lot of kinetic energy, which has a strong knockback effect at close range.

Six shots were fired in a row, pouring all the bullets of the spiral troll, and then, as soon as Rosen's thoughts froze, the alchemy magic turned into a virtual hand, 'grabbing' the new bullet from the package, and quickly stuffing it into the runner magazine.

At the same time, the meat grinder musket in his left hand was not idle.

He used a trace of alchemy magic to detect the specific position of the water ghost in the air, and the meat grinder musket adjusted the muzzle direction according to that position, and then continued to shoot.

"Bang Bang~"

Rosen still wiped out the bullets in the meat grinder's magazine in one go.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, not to mention the tough water ghost.

After emptying the bullets of the meat grinder musket, the spiral troll has been reloaded, and Lawson repeats the previous operation, reloading the meat grinder musket, and the spiral troll in his right hand is aimed forward.

This time, Rosen didn't shoot, because the alchemy magic probe told him that the water ghost was knocked down on the walkway next to the sewer, and his body did not move, and it was very likely that it was finished.

'Whew~Whew~'

Rosen gasped for breath, his forehead covered with cold sweat, and both arms trembled slightly.

Although the battle process was short, it was thrilling, as long as he made a mistake, it was him and Lilith who fell to the ground, not the water ghost opposite.

After a long pause, Lilith asked, "Monster...... Dead? ”

"Possibly."

Rosen could clearly feel the female body trembling slightly in her back, and he knew that Lilith must have been frightened just now, but she held back her fear from beginning to end and didn't make any sound, which was very rare.

Reaching out and gently patting Lilith's back, Rosen softened his tone and comforted: "Don't worry, I will definitely take you out of here." ”

Lilith's heart trembled, and she whispered, "Well, I know. ”

'Click~' with a soft sound,

Lawson took out his flashlight and shone it forward, and on the walkway about fifteen meters away, a naked humanoid monster with black and purple skin fell motionless in a pool of blood.

'Black and purple skin, blood-red eyes, webbed feet, height of about 1.6 meters, the muscles of the whole body are extremely developed like muscular men, explosive, and a fish-lipped face, with fangs exposed behind the lips, and fish gills behind the ears...... Sure enough, it's a water ghost. ’

Water ghosts, as the name suggests, are monsters that live in water.

They are distributed anywhere there is water, whether it is the water of rivers, lakes and seas, or the dirty water of sewers, as long as they are in the water, the combat power of the water ghosts will multiply, and it will become extremely difficult.

In fact, apart from the mistake at the beginning of the battle, this water ghost did not make any mistakes, and his only mistake was to underestimate Rosen's combat effectiveness.

Rosen, who has a modern musket, far surpasses the ordinary soldiers of this era in terms of combat effectiveness.

So, the water ghost failed.

Rosen fired 12 shots in quick succession, and a torrent of metal like a storm nearly tore its body to shreds.

After observing for more than ten seconds, Rosen whispered, "It's dead." ”

After confirming that the water ghost was dead, Lawson activated the talent panel, and in the upper right corner of the panel, the free talent points changed from the previous 1.1 points to 1.7 points, and this water ghost gave him 0.6 free talent points.

"Not bad, not bad..... Hey~ My second-tier electromagnetic scythe talent has accumulated 52% proficiency, and with these 1.7 points, not only can I fill the 'electromagnetic sickle', but it seems that I can also activate the third-tier talent! ”

This discovery made Rosen very happy in his heart, if the second layer of alchemy talent is considered to be an entry into alchemy, then opening the third layer of talent is the realm of entering the house.

His gaze turned to the third layer of the talent tree, and above the electromagnetic scythe, a new talent had appeared that could be activated, and the talent name was: Electronic Empowerment!

E-Empowerment (to be activated)

Special Talents (Only one can be activated)

Effect 1: Elemental Control +1000.

Effect 2: The alchemist can condense the magic of alchemy into a photon containing a specific energy (the energy can be positive or negative), and give the photon to a specific energy level electron outside the nucleus, so that the electron is at a higher or lower energy level.

(Note: The number of electrons empowered by an alchemist at a time is linearly correlated with the alchemist's power, and every 1000 elemental manipulation forces can be empowered by 0.1 moles of electrons per minute.) ）

The talent of electron empowerment is too powerful, because the reaction between everything in the world, except for gravity and various nuclear radiation phenomena, everything else is the magic of electrons and photons.

If he activates the electronic empowerment, Lawson can accurately control most of the material change processes in the world, which is simply a god-like ability.

However, underground waterways are not safe and are not a good place to improve your talents. Lawson suppressed the joy in his heart, put away the equipment one by one, only held a flashlight in his hand, and then turned and strode back towards the previous entrance.

After walking for a few minutes, Lilith suddenly asked, "Alchemist, did you create all your weapons yourself?" ”

"Hmm." Rosen nodded.

"Then do you have some kind of potion similar to the power of Thor?" Lilith asked again.

"Thor's power?" Lawson didn't react for a moment.

Lilith explained in detail: "It is a powerful weapon used by the Flame God Sect on the battlefield, the shape is a large iron pipe, and the potion filled in it is the power of Thor, and when ignited, it can throw a large iron ball weighing five or six catties two or three miles away." ”

Well, Rosen was shaken by Lilith's mind again. In this era when guns were just emerging, it was brilliant to see at a glance the same basic principles behind modern firearms and primitive artillery.

In the face of such a smart person, it is not a good idea to hide it, in fact, it cannot be concealed.

Lawson simply said honestly, "Oh, that's what you're talking about." Well, you guessed correctly, I do have a similar potion, but my potion is more than ten times more powerful than Thor's power, and it is more perfect. ”

A gleam appeared in Lilith's beautiful eyes: "Is it so powerful?" And what's the name of your potion? ”

"Trinitroglycerin."

"Trinitro....... Glycerol? Is it the kind of glycerin that is used to moisturize the skin? Lilith heard in a fog.

"Yes, you guessed it right."

"What do you mean by trinitro?"

"I'm not telling you." Lawson smiled.

"......." Lilith is itching, as a magician of Nilogaard, she has personally participated in the defense of the free city of Berkeley. When the Flame God Cult's Thor power appeared, she was deeply shocked by its immense power.

She was very curious about the Thor's Power Elixir that caused all this, but the Flame God Cult was very aware of the great value of this potion and kept the secret of the potion very tight, so until now, no one knew what this thing was.

But now, a young alchemist has a potion in his hand that far exceeds the power of Thor, and Lilith can't help but be impressed.

If it were someone else, she would definitely try her best to get this potion by all means, but this person was her life-saving benefactor, and she also swore to the gods. If the other party is unwilling, she has nothing to do.

After thinking for a while, she cautiously asked, "That...... This one...... You say, what should I do to possibly know the secret of this potion? ”

"Give money." Rosen's answer was succinct.

"Give...... Just give money, huh? Lilith was stunned, such a treasure, if you give money, you can sell it, this ...... This doesn't make sense.

"Very expensive, 2,000 gold dragon coins per kilogram of finished products. If you want a formula, at least 100,000. ”

"100,000 gold dragon coins?" Lilith asked, this is too cheap, you know, the Flame God Sect's Thor's power potion is priceless, and in order to get the secret of Thor's power, the academy has sacrificed more than a dozen magicians.

"Yes."

"Then when I return to the academy, I will immediately scrape together the money to buy it from you!"

Rosen whistled lightly, "Okay." Miss Linde, if you say that, then I will do my best to escort you back to the academy. ”

He didn't know too many explosive formulas, and it didn't matter at all to sell one to Nilogaard College, and besides, although trinitroglycerin was a good thing, if there was no diatomaceous earth as a stabilizer...... Hey, hey, hey.

Anyway, with Lilith's line, he will definitely make a profit, well, when trading, he has to carefully keep his identity secret, otherwise he will be very dangerous.

At this time, the two returned to the previous entrance, and Lawson picked up the flashlight and looked at the entrance a few times, and couldn't help but curse: "This damn Green!" ”

The exit was still there, but it was tightly blocked, the wooden staircase had been removed, the location of the exit was smashed, and the pile of wood and rubble was full, and Lawson suspected that the entire basement might have been filled.

This exit is useless, and it is impossible to get out of here.

"Miss Linde, is it possible to use the teleportation technique to escape after you regain your strength?"

Lilith shook her head with a wry smile: "It can't be done." You know, it's impossible to teleport without space crystals. ”
