Chapter 73
2014-08-16
This heavy rain has been falling for three days in a row, like a prelude to winter, and the temperature in Black Rock City is steep drop.In the past few days, Tang En, apart from taking Lena out to buy some Alchemy Items in the carriage, has been shrinking in the system to practice hard skills.
It wasn't just the rain that kept Tang En from going out, but the current chaotic environment in Black Rock City. According to Allen, the East City District and the North City are better, the West City District has brief conflicts from time to time, but the Southport Wharf, that is, there are fights almost all the time.
There is chaos in the city, and the garrison must be connected, so Tang En's plan to infiltrate can only be put on hold for the time being.
dong, dong, dong...
There was a sudden knock on the door, and the sleepy Tang En opened the door. He had been training in the space for a long time last night. .
"Successful, I succeeded..." Lena danced outside the door with excitement on her face.
"Uh. What?"
"Washing machine, I got the washing machine out!"
"Well, good, go on... uh, what? Washing machine!" Tang En, who came back to his senses, was shocked.
"Yeah, come with me." Lina pulled Tang En down the stairs.
At this time, there were several odd-looking things on the open space on the right side of the backyard, a double-layer wooden barrel, a square box with a handle inserted, and a yellow rope-like thing between the two. write.
"This is a washing machine?" Tang En was confused, I've seen pulsators, drums, and mixers... What is this?
Lina nodded, said firmly: "That's right!"
Tang En took a few steps forward, well, this wooden tub is the inner tub of the washing machine.
"This is..."
"This is the pulsator you said"
"Why does it feel like a bone to me?"
"It was originally a bone. This is the sternum of the gu lu beast, which is very similar to the pulsator you mentioned." Lina said as it should be by rights.
"Uh, well, then this is..."
"This is the gear you said."
"The gear?" Tang En looked Looking at the rows of things at the bottom of the barrel, he was suddenly shocked, "Is it a tooth."
"Yes, it is a tooth of a sharp-mouthed beast, which just meets the requirements of a gear."
Tang En Great Khan...Fuck, this is really not just in name only, but also in reality's "tooth" wheel.
“What about this?” Tang En pointed to the square box with the handle.
"This is a power unit!" Lena lifts the head, proudly said, "I thought of it after reading a lot of books. There are two fixed gravitational balls in it. This gravitational ball is a The results of Alchemist's failed experiments are mainly for children to play. Because as long as two are stirred together, they will have a strong attraction to each other. So I only need to turn the handle for a moment, stir them and give a boost, These two small balls will be attracted to each other, which will drive the gears inside to rotate automatically."
Lena said this excitedly, paused, and said randomly: "Then through this Beef tendons... oh, I should say caterpillars, and then drive the gears at the bottom of the bucket to run the laundry automatically."
"Gravity ball? Beef tendons? Teeth..." Tang En stroked She rubbed her forehead and felt a little confused for a while, "Uh, have you tried this thing?"
Lina called the head: "No, I'll call you as soon as it's done."
p>
"Then give it a try, practice is the only criterion to test the success of an item." Tang En waved his hand, and for a while he had a sense of mission to promote the technological progress of Other World.
"Well, I'm going to get some clothes." Lena trotted like she was going inside the house.
"No, just this one." Tang En took off his black gown and threw it into the wooden bucket, then added some water.
"Who will start?"
"Come on, this is your first Alchemy Item after all." Tang En said with a smile.
"en!" Lena solemnly nodded and took the hand. took a deep breath, turned,
bang, cut, bang, cut, bang, bang...
Uh, how does it feel like driving a train...Tang En listen Hearing the sound coming from the small box, he couldn't help thinking.
After about 3 minutes of rotation, the clanging sound became faster and faster, and the tendon track began to rotate slowly at this time. So far, everything went well.
Lina let go abruptly and took a step back.
The two watched as the crawler began to change from slow to slow, and there was a faint sound of water in the barrel, apparently starting to stir.
Lina excitedly grabbed Tang En's arm and looked at the thing she had spent three days and three nights making with a sense of accomplishment.
Clanging, clanging, clanging...
The sound became faster, the crawler speeded up, and water splashed from the barrel.
Hey, why does it feel like something is wrong...Tang En looked thoughtful towards the wooden barrel.
Om... At this time, the spinning barrel also began to make a sound.
“Uh…”
Bang chu chu chu…
Buzz Buzz hum…
“ Isn't this thing normal, why don't we stop first?" Tang En said worriedly as he watched the Rapid Speed's spinning barrel with his eyelids twitching.
"Yeah!" Lena covered her mouth and screamed.
"What's wrong?"
Lena grimaced: "I was thinking about how to make it spin, but I forgot how to make it stop."
"What?" Tang En was shocked!
Boom——
At this moment, the barrel that Rapid Speed was spinning suddenly burst open, and all the parts were scattered.
"Fall", Tang En reacted very quickly, grabbed Lena's shoulder and threw it behind him.
“Chaos Flower!”
The pitch black dagger red glow flickered, and a glamorous blood flower loomed, but it was forcibly pushed forward by Tang En before it took shape.
His, sizzles, sizzles...
Ding, ding, ding...
The granular things that hit a little are blocked by layers of blade glow, Live and fly.
Tang En didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief, but suddenly it was dark and the wind was blowing. He subconsciously crossed his hands in front of him,
Bang!
My hand hurt and my body flew out of the air, hitting the wall of the house directly!
Everything happened in an instant, and when Lena came back to his senses, the small courtyard was already a mess, the ground and walls were covered with the remains of her first Alchemy Item.
"Mr. Arthur, how are you? Where are you injured?"
"Well...it's okay!" Tang En groaned and stood up straight. With a bang, he threw away the half of the "wave wheel" that caused him to hit the wall. Just as he was about to put away the dagger, he moved in his heart and looked down, and saw a sharp white tooth biting into the pit of the dark dagger.
Fuck, it's not bullshit...Tang En is sweating like rain, thanks to the fact that he activated Chaos Flower in advance, or just the explosive impact, the penetrating power of the sharp teeth...he will Going to blood sacrifice for Lena's first Alchemy Item.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Lina's face turned pale, looking at Tang En's bruised arms full of self-blame.
"It's okay. It's all inventions, there must be times when they fail." Tang En comforted, and then patted his thigh: "I see... er, I'm also responsible. I forgot to tell you that the washing machine is It has to be reversed." No wonder I just watched the barrel turn and felt weird...
"Ah, reversed?"
"Yes, it is reversed. The stains on it can be washed off by anti-stirring, if one direction tells you to rotate..." Tang En patted Lena's shoulder, "You are in the right direction, at least you have invented the dehydration function of the washing machine ahead of time!"
"Uh..." Lina was taken aback for a moment, "Where are you going, Mr. Arthur?"
"Potion." Tang En lowered his shoulders weakly , Fuck, it hurts...
Lina stuck out her tongue: "I'll help you get it done, I just prepared a Primary trauma medicine a few days ago."
"Don't." Tang En was shocked, "I have a potion in my room! Use mine, use mine!"
