Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 In his mind, he horizontally compared the hair of the girls he knew, and he still thought that Miss Audrey’s hair was the most beautiful, but the one that looked the softest was Miss Mihail’s blonde hair.

　　 "But the chocolate hair feels the most comfortable to the touch."

　　 He concluded in his heart, touched the chocolate that was licking his paws, and began to guess where Miss Audrey was going to take him.

The carriage drove the two to a shopping street that was not very spacious. The moonlight had penetrated from the sky and there were no pedestrians on the street. Judging from the signs on both sides, the surroundings should be shops selling metal parts and mechanical parts. .

The two walked forward along the street one after another. When they came to the next intersection, Miss Audrey raised her head and looked around, then led Jenkins into another wider street and passed the street. Wealthy clubs, dessert shops, bookstores and clothing stores at the entrance of the mouth, and then turn into the side alley.

　　 There are high walls on both sides of the alley, and the meaning of its existence should be to communicate two different blocks.

　　 "This is it...Can you give me some light?"

　　 "Oh, yes, please wait a moment."

　　 Under the command of Miss Audrey, he slid the starlight ball against the ground. The two soon saw a rusty sewer cover. Because it was covered with dust, it almost blended with the ground next to it. If Jenkins didn't happen to step on it, they would have to find it for a long time.

　　 "This is it. Last time I went down through another route, so I am not sure of the specific location. Let's go."

　　 Miss Audrey did not ask Jenkins to open the heavy manhole cover, but crouched down, rolled up her sleeves, and drew a circle on the dust of the manhole cover with her white jade fingers. She told Jenkins to retreat at that time, and then chanted the mantra in a low voice. With a dull sound, a hole was opened on the surface of the manhole cover.

Below 　　 there is a ladder embedded in the wall of the well, which looks very unsafe. The two climbed down in tandem, and then walked forward along the intricate sewer pipe under the illumination of the starlight ball.

　　 The smell here is not very strong, even lighter than the smell of the sewers in the black market. The sewer is also very spacious, there is no disgusting garbage, but there are some disgusting green moss on the wall of the pipe, and from time to time there will be rats coming out of the dark to make people startle.

　　 These mice are quite big, and they don’t know how to find food sources in such an environment.

　　 He glanced at the chocolate on his shoulder under the dim light of two light **** in the distance. This cat has never been interested in mice. The last time I was in the warehouse of the old antique shop, I watched the mice run over in front of him without responding.

　　 "Are you really a cat?"

　　 He joked in a low voice, Chocolate opened one eye, and his amber eyes seemed to glow in the dark:

　　 "Meow~"

　　 went forward for more than ten minutes in the sewer, the complicated underground water system made Jenkins gradually lost his way. Only Miss Audrey kept chanting words, seeming to rely on a special way to find something.

　　 They quickly walked into a pipe with no fork in the road, and after a few minutes in the darkness, the front was at the end.

　　 But what the starlight ball shines on is not a smooth tube wall or an uneven wall, but a metal machine embedded in the soil.

　　 Its surface showed a metallic luster mixed with copper and silver, but it was not smooth. Instead, it was covered with small thorns as if it had not been polished.

　　 The fuselage is one person tall, and it blends perfectly with the surrounding soil. In the soil next to the fuselage, some rust-colored pipelines, like roots and stems of plants, are exposed everywhere, and some hot steam will be emitted from time to time.

　　 This doesn't seem to be a product of this era at all. Whether in terms of appearance or artistic style, it looks like a weird machine that can only be born under a more crazy steam science civilization.

　　 "Yes, this is it!"

　　 Miss Audrey pressed Jenkins's shoulder on the other side and asked him to wait for a while, her voice low and steady:

　　 "B-08-02-8214, a vending machine for equivalent exchange."

　　 "Huh, special items?"

　　 Jenkins asked in surprise, blinking, the surface of the machine with strange industrial beauty was indeed mixed with extremely complex auras.

"The appearance of this machine originated from a failed treacherous operation in the 15th epoch. This can only be found in the oldest data room of the [Church of Creation and Machinery]. Its location is not fixed, and It is impossible to find out the timing of the movement, but the places that appear are usually those corners of the city that are not easily detectable by humans. As for the function, do you see the structure of the bottom of the machine like a drawer?"

Section 553 Chapter 544 Inspiration Divination (3/10)

　　 In the gloomy sewer pipe, the ancient machine on the wall is not far away from Jenkins and Miss Audrey. But it is not easy to distinguish the structure of the machine that is spreading over the pipeline and still exposing steam. Jenkins squinted his eyes and stretched his neck for a long time before finally seeing the specific location under the guidance of Miss Audrey.

"Any user puts inactive items into the machine through that structure, and then pulls the handle on the right side of the machine-in very rare cases, on the left side, then the machine will process and react to the user. Items of equivalent value."

　　 Seeing that Jenkins wanted to ask curiously, she added:

"The so-called equivalence, when measuring the value of the item put in, is based on the actual value of the item to the user, but the output is based on the value of the inner perception of the person turning the handle. I think you should understand mine. meaning."

"of course!"

　　 Jenkins replied quickly, then looked up at the distant machine:

　　 "This is really interesting, no, I mean it's incredible. The B-types that I have seen in the past are extraordinary, but they don't have such complicated functions."

"But note that its hazard number is 02. After all, the input is limited to non-living things, but the output can be anything. In the past history, there have been many cases of abuse of B-08-02-8214. . I don’t think we want poison gas or other terrible things to come out of the machine."

　　 "Yes, I will remain vigilant."

　　 B-08-02-8214 usually stay at the same place for no more than three days, and Miss Audrey discovered it the day before yesterday. Therefore, there is no need to inform the local church of this incident, after all, it will soon disappear.

　　 And I brought Jenkins here in the hope that through predicting the output, Jenkins will have the "inspiration" for divination. In other words, Miss Audrey hopes that Jenkins, like the oldest gifters, can predict the future only by relying on her own inspiration.

　　According to her, this is a very effective and solemn way of enlightenment for divination, and it is the ultimate stage for orthodox fortunetellers. And with the help of the B-type extraordinary power, it can play a stimulating effect on the extraordinary inspiration.

　　 The pile of tatters collected by Jenkins in advance is the items that will be put into the machine in a while. The church has conducted an imprecise test during its short time of appearance. The items on Miss Audrey's list are all items that have never had any problems during the test period.

　　Although this is not rigorous, after all, Jenkins's ideas are different from those of testers, but it is better than throwing completely unknown items.

　　 After explaining this, the two leaned over together. It seems that human beings can be sensed approaching, the metal color on the surface of the machine is more obvious, and even the pulsation of the exposed metal pipeline can be faintly observed.

　　 The beauty it possesses is difficult for humans in this era to describe. Even Jenkins can't find a suitable adjective. It shows a primitive and rugged mechanical image, but it has a very orderly arrangement and appearance. Primitive chaos and mechanical order are mixed together, and the resulting perception will surely drive painters who pursue art crazy.

　　 "We can take our time, don't worry."

　　 The woman said softly, grabbing from the cardboard box Jenkins was holding, and scooping out half of the red brick contributed by the old warehouse.

　　 She bends down slightly, and amidst the harsh rubbing sound, pulls open the drawer under the machine, puts the red brick in and pushes it up again.

　　 signaled Jenkins to step back, and then took a deep breath and violently pulled down the lever full of small iron thorns.

　　 boom~ boom~ boom~

　　 The huge metal crashing sound came from the wall behind the machine, which made people wonder how big it is hidden in the mud. This is like a huge impact machine at work, and the sound is constantly echoing in the narrow underground pipe.

　　 "I hope I don't attract any strange things."

　　 Jenkins whispered.

　　The streamer circulated on the surface of the machine, and at the same time, from top to bottom, a row of light yellow runes lit up on the front of the machine. The pipe was puffing out steam at an exaggerated rate, and the rumbling sound was endless. Miss Audrey suddenly took Jenkins back and took a step back, and then white hot steam spewed out of the cracks in the machine, almost wrapping the two of them in.

　　 Jenkins, holding his pocket watch, determined that this complicated manufacturing process took one minute and twelve seconds. After all the abnormalities disappeared, Miss Audrey nodded:

　　 "Okay, then Jenkins, please tell me, what will be made?"

　　 "Okay, let me try it."

　　 He knew very well that the first attempt would not be correct. After all, inspiration can know the past, present and future, and even the oldest fortune-tellers can't do it. But this will be a meaningful start, Jenkins firmly believes in this.

　　 "Um... I guess, ahem, I mean, I think, the equivalent exchanged item will be a ball of yarn!"

　　 This is a casual talk.

　　 said, he walked forward at the sign of Miss Audrey and reopened the drawer under the machine. The iron handle is slightly hot, perhaps because the machine has been running with high power just now.

　　 "Oh, no, I guessed wrong."

　　 Although he said so, there was no regret on his face.

　　 B-08-02-8214 produces half a loaf of brown bread, which is the kind of food that is delicious on the poor people's table mixed with sawdust and sand. Its hardness is not necessarily less than that of the red brick just now. In addition, there is a clear human tooth bite mark on the side of the black bread. Jenkins believes that the value is indeed similar to the red brick.

　　 "It doesn't matter, if it succeeds once, that's something to be surprised."

　　 Miss Audrey spoke softly, and then asked Jenkins to pick up the debris and throw it into B-08-02-8214.

　　 He rummaged in the cardboard box for a while, and pulled out the newspaper with a black footprint. Judging from the date, this is the morning paper last Saturday, and the footprints happened to be printed on the face of Mr. Congressman on the front page.

　　 imitated Miss Audrey's method and put the newspaper in the drawer, then pulled the lever and pushed it aside.

"Close your eyes and concentrate. You should know that even ordinary people may have something invisible to their eyes under certain special circumstances. As gifters, our inspiration should be stronger. You can do your best You can also let go of your own thinking completely. These are extremely effective methods."

　　 Miss Audrey suggested from the side.

Section 554 Chapter 545 Learning Disabilities (4/10)

　　 Listening to Miss Audrey’s instructions, Jenkins nodded gently. He closed his eyes and felt the spirit flowing in the body and infiltrating the soul. The short loss of vision meant the strengthening of other senses. He could feel the faint and regular breathing of chocolate on his shoulders, and could feel Miss Audrey. His gaze was stopping on his body, and he could feel a slight heat coming from the direction of the machine.

"What could it be?"

　　 The body showed the most relaxed posture, allowing the spirit to break through the shackles of the body and communicate with the world for a short time... But the above was just an imagination, Jenkins felt nothing, he began to doubt whether he had a talent for divination.

　　 "Hmm~"

　　 It took too long to close his eyes. He thought he had better give the answer as soon as possible:

　　 "Then, the newspaper is equivalent to a rag!"

　　 Of course, Jenkins gave the wrong answer again. What was taken out of the machine was a smooth pebble, the most common type on the beach.

　　 "Well, don't worry, we can take our time."

　　 Although he maintained a great interest in this matter at the beginning, after a dozen consecutive failures, Jenkins was a little frustrated.

　　 And while using B-08-02-8214 here, some interesting things happened.

　　Although for safety, they did not try to put dangerous items into the machine. But even for safety, after trying to put in a completely blank piece of paper, what came out of the machine was a silver metal beetle that could crawl freely.

　　 Jenkins can be sure that it must be made of metal and has its own intelligence. This thing is very dangerous, red hot liquid can be sprayed from the tail.

　　 But fortunately, Miss Audrey reacted in time and started the machine at the fastest speed, swapping the beetle for a socks with holes in it, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

　　 Regarding the usage of B-08-02-8214, in fact, Jenkins still has many fantastic ideas. For example, he would like to know that if the machine is started without putting anything in, the default exchange for the machine will be "none" or the air in the drawer.

　　 But Miss Audrey warned Jenkins not to do this, because he was not the first person to think of this. And the last brave man who really verified this idea, after pulling the lever, found that half of his internal organs had been transferred to the machine.

　　 This gave Jenkins once again a deep understanding of "Danger Level 2".

　　 "So, if we put so many spiritual materials into it, is it possible to give birth to a new special item?"

　　 "But it is also possible to give birth to a monster that contains a huge spirit and can use extraordinary powers wantonly."

　　 Miss Audrey seemed to think that Jenkins's ideas were too dangerous, so before he tried to throw the chocolate tail hair into the machine, she announced that today's class was over.

　　 Although Jenkins did not succeed once, it is quite normal. Miss Audrey planned to continue this kind of thing for a month. Of course, she would not use this machine again next time. She believes that if the situation is optimistic, Jenkins hopes to make a real divination before the end of the year.

　　 B-08-02-8214 remained far away when the two left, but according to Miss Audrey's opinion, it should disappear within two hours. She used spells and simple rituals to create a "shadow screen" so that anyone observing from three feet away could not see B-08-02-8214, which was considered a more prudent security measure.

　　 The two separated after returning to the ground from the sewer. Miss Audrey proposed to send Jenkins to the church, but the alley was not far from the church, so Jenkins politely declined her proposal.

　　 Looking at Miss Audrey's disappearance on the corner of the street, Jenkins looked up at the normal bimonthly tonight, and then quickly left here with chocolate.

　　 He did not return to the church immediately, but found a more remote alley nearby. On the wall in the middle of the alley, there are some brand-new street lamp poles piled up, which are to be installed on the road outside, and there is a large garbage dump on the other side. Although the small area in the middle is a bit smelly, it is an absolute blind spot of vision.

　　 Let the chocolate go to the alley to catch the wind, Jenkins crouched on the small flat ground and took out the notebook hidden in the inner pocket of his coat, which contained the bunch of hair he got last night.

　　 He didn't know whether the blood-sucking species would also suffer from human diseases, but he just tried it anyway, and even if it failed, it would just waste some materials.

　　 This cursed disease is still the cold that Jenkins is most familiar with. After completing the ceremony, he pulled out an empty can from the trash and buckled the hair-wrapped stone in it, and then buried it deeply in the trash.

　　 That's all right, if it works, it is the wise blessing. If nothing happens, then patiently wait for the mirror to appear again next time.

　　 (playing with chocolate...)

　　Although the prototype of the weekend rest system has appeared in this era, in fact, only a very small number of people can enjoy the two-day-a-week vacation. Therefore, not many people will look forward to the arrival of Friday.

　　 When I returned to the church last night, I noticed that the weather was very gloomy. I woke up early on Friday and saw that the courtyard of the church was covered with a thick layer of snow.

　　 When I set off from the church to the Old Daddy's antique shop, there was still light snow in the sky, and when I reached the street corner reached by the Fifth Queen, the snow in the sky was as big as a feather.

　　 He was boringly thinking about what he was going to do recently, and suddenly realized that the meeting time of the "superior event mutual aid group" mentioned by Mr. Nellie was tonight.

　　 "It has been determined that the All-Knowing Mirror is in the hands of the Vampire, and there is no need..."

　　 He thought in his heart, for the time being, he hasn't decided whether he should go to the fun at night.

　　 Because of the bad weather, no guests visited the antique shop all morning. The old man has long been used to the leisure of winter, so he just sat in front of the fireplace with the newspaper in the morning, while having boring conversations with Jenkins, while complaining about every news in the newspaper.

　　 The front page headline of "Nolan Daily" this morning reported a series of killings that occurred earlier in the week in the Luyin Township of Nolan City. The old man took this news very seriously, and he told Jenkins with certainty that the cause of this incident was that the bearer of the [Killing Mark] appeared in Greentown.

Section 555 Chapter 546 Hemolytic Toxin (5/10)

　　 "The Mark of Killing?"

　　 "Even to express your surprise, I don't think you need to repeat my words at all."

　　 Daddy said while looking at the newspaper.
