Chapter 0821 - Opponent
Jenny struggled to lift the suitcase and followed Sulu out of the store.
Just then, she saw an obvious commotion in front of the alley.
Many gray-robed people crowded and fled, like a box of sardines rummaging around.
Behind them, uniformed sheriffs.
"It's the sheriff who is sweeping up the black market......"
Jenny whispered, and saw that the old woman who was peddling fish-man ointment to her was running fast, and it seemed that she was in possession of a forbidden item.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at her suitcase, a little dazed, there were also contraband in it.
"What are you still doing?"
Suru took her arm and ran to a corner.
"Don't move, security patrol...... Line up one by one! ”
The sheriff's faint growl was heard.
This alley has only two exits at the head and tail, and it is very narrow and easy to control.
Of course, some black-hearted businessmen must have prepared other escape routes early on.
However, Sulu's method was more simple and crude, he took out a piece of chalk and drew a door on the wall.
Instantly, with a flash of light, the door became real.
"Come with me!"
He took Jenny through the door.
Jenny was in a trance and found herself on the next street.
Behind her, the door on the wall slowly turned back into a chalk drawing, which was quickly erased by Sulu.
"That's ......"
She asked with a blank expression.
"Creation chalk is not a magical object, but a real mysterious object, and it is a dangerous contraband that must be 'contained' in the major churches."
Sulu chuckled and explained, "It draws objects that can be turned into real ...... Of course, creatures can't, they will mutate into monsters 100%, even if they are inanimate items, there is a certain probability of mutation, but many times it is still very useful...... It just needs to eat fruit once in a while, otherwise it will get angry and scribble. ”
"Eat fruit...... The chalk? ”
Jenny's eyes blinked, and she couldn't turn around.
"The true mystical items are the remnants of the chaotic effects born from the cataclysm, the destruction of the gods and the demonic web...... Many of them have strong side effects, and this aspect is not as good as man-made magical items. ”
Sulu casually threw the chalk to Jenny: "I've got you ......"
"Teacher ......"
Jenny was a little moved: "Such a precious item......"
"For me, it's just something I picked up......," Sulu smiled disapprovingly and returned to campus with Jenny.
Jenny also changed back to her original appearance, and followed Sulu with the box in her arms.
"Turing Master!"
Upon him, another mechanical instructor approached.
He was tall, bronzed, with a two-handed, well-trimmed mustache.
"Professor Robert."
Sulu greeted with a smile: "What's the matter?" ”
"It just so happens that Jenny is also ...... Regarding the new steam engine model you submitted......" Robert's expression was a little subtle: "The Academy was ready to push it for the award, but it ran into a new mechanical transmission tool that can effectively reduce energy consumption......"
It is said that his designers were also improving a model of a steam engine...... By the way, the other party's name is Varen! Robert finally lowered his voice, as if sharing a secret.
"I believe that my students' designs must be the best."
Sulu smiled in response.
But at the same time, it was as if he had penetrated a lot of fog before his eyes, and came to a small, dirty workshop.
A young man with messy hair and a pale face was staring intently at the steam engine in front of him.
On the table, there are various design sketches and tools.
His gaze was obsessive, and he muttered, "That's right...... It must be like this......"
At this time, in Sulu's eyes, there seemed to be a circle of hazy power around the other party's body.
It is invisible, but it has the ability to subtly change its surroundings.
……
'Fate? ’
The Creator sighed to himself.
Haunting the young man called 'Valen' is the power of fate.
In other words, he is the 'son of the times' who was truly born in this world!
It's a secret that even the gods can't easily discover.
'Yes...... In such a big world, and after so many years of accumulation, there is finally an indigenous ...... with the appearance of becoming a god.
Sulu glanced at Jenny behind her.
"Teacher?"
Jeanne, who politely said goodbye to Professor Robert, obviously noticed that something was wrong, and asked suspiciously.
"This Valen...... It's very interesting, it's your strong opponent in the future. ”
Sulu replied with a chuckle.
It is a great thing for the Creator that a 'child of the age' has been born in his own world.
That Valen, who has won the favor of the times, is a figure who will inevitably set off a storm.
Even, it is possible to become a god!
This is bound to pose a formidable challenge for Jenny.
Although Su Lu gave Jenny very good conditions, it is really difficult to say such a thing as becoming a god.
Competing with each other is also a way to promote progress.
As long as the final winner can be decided, it is Sulu himself who benefits the most.
"Valen?"
Jenny silently remembered the name.
……
A few days later.
Inside the workshop of Wallen.
A young man with burgundy hair and freckles on his face burst in: "Valen...... Oh no. ”
"What's the matter? Fitch? ”
Valen looked up and scratched his head with the wrench in his hand.
"You are nominated for this year's Kingdom Invention Award!"
Feige walked around the garbage on the ground in disgust and said mysteriously, "But I got the news...... You have a strong competitor, Jenny from the Sealand School of Mechanics, who has improved a steam engine......"
Hearing this, Valen's work on his hand stopped.
In front of him, too, a model of a steam engine was placed.
"And then?"
And then ...... Aren't you nervous, worried? Feige was speechless.
"That's none of my business, but if someone does improve the model of the steam engine, I'd like to see it!"
Valen pouted and went back to work.
"By the way, there's one more thing, how did you think about it?"
Feige looked around and lowered his voice: "Related...... What about joining the church? ”
"Wise sage?"
Varen's eyes were a little dazed.
This being-appreciative, full of wisdom, often sends out solicitations to such people.
Of course, he is located in the Kingdom of Forrester and is in the realm of Mother Nature's beliefs, and the Church of the God of Knowledge has to be sneaky when it comes to pulling people's heads.
This situation is much better in the Free City-States Alliance, which is generally the most confusing place of faith.
"Yes! They believe you have an unrivaled talent for mechanics and can lead a whole new wave of mechanics! ”
Feiqi's eyes lit up: "They promise that once you join, they will make you a 'saint' and give you an 'owl stigma', which can enlighten wisdom and make you think faster......"
"I'm going to think about ......"
Hearing about the saints and stigmata, Valen's eyes lit up.
