Chapter 84: Magic extension


   The headquarters of the Machinery Union is located in Los District, where the civilian working class gathers.
  Loss District and Honiton District are both built along the Ferregren River, one north and south, facing the Silver Star District across the river. Rennes’s former apartment is not far from the Mechanical Union.
   The car sprinted all the way and reached the mechanical union in less than twenty minutes.
   Pollock jumped out of the car before it stopped, trying to rush in.
   Ren and Frida followed.
   It was the first time he came to the Machinery Union. When he looked up, he saw a ten-storey building with a height of nearly 100 meters. It stood out in the city of Longshande, second only to the Wizard Tower.
   There are several buildings at the foot of the building, all of which are large factories with only one storey height, and there is a roar of machines.
   Seeing this layout, Ren suddenly remembered the large manufacturing plant in his previous life.
   At the gate of the trade union, two humanoid mechanical puppets over three meters high stood one on the left and the other on the right.
   They are all silver-grey, and the outer shell is thick plate armor made of metal. They hold a huge sword in both hands. They are majestic, heavy and solemn, and extremely deterrent.
Pollock approached the door, and the eyes of the two puppets immediately lit up with red light. There was a faint sound of gears turning inside, and white steam spewed from behind. They raised their giant swords extremely quickly and fought each other. The sound of "clang" blocked each other. Way to go.
   "Please stop."
   "Show your identity."
   The head of the mechanical puppet made a stiff sound without a trace of emotion.
   Pollock took two steps back quickly, took out his own ID card of the slayer team, and shouted loudly, "The slayer team is working, let me go quickly."
   The mechanical puppet on the left turned his eyes and looked at the identity card. It seemed that he could not recognize it, and stood still.
   Behind the gate hurriedly ran out an extraordinary person in uniform and guard.
   Pollock threw the ID card to him and shouted: "Emergency case, I want to see your chairman and open the door."
   The guard only glanced at the ID card, and suddenly his face changed slightly.
   "Yes." He did not dare to delay, took out a metal box from his pocket, pressed it on the box, and the two mechanical puppets immediately returned to the original place.
  At the same time, the door of the mechanic union opened quickly.
   Pollock quickly grabbed his body card and rushed directly into the building.
   There were rapid footsteps in the lobby on the first floor, attracting the attention of busy people. Pollock rushed to the front desk and quickly asked the person behind the counter: "Where is Travic? Is he still in the union?"
   Pollock was pressed by a young woman in her twenties. She was dressed in clean work clothes and had a nice face. She was taken aback by the situation, thinking that something was going on, she almost turned around and was about to run away.
   Pollock felt helpless and could only hold up his ID card again.
   "We are from the slayer team, who knows where Travic is?" He raised his voice so that everyone in the hall could hear it.
   There was silence for a few seconds, and finally someone replied: "Mr. Travic left in the morning and has not returned."
   Pollock looked at the man who spoke back, and asked, "Are you sure?"
   "Yes." The man was very sure, as if he was also a mechanic: "I saw him go with my own eyes. He left early before get off work hours, so I was very impressed."
   "Fuck!"
   Pollock couldn't help but cursed. Obviously, Travic noticed the abnormality and had escaped.
   A Level 5 mechanic, hiding in a large city with a population of one million, is too difficult to find.
   If this fallen person cannot be found in time, the consequences will be disastrous.
   "The idiot of the security team can't secretly search for individuals, not only did not find the problem, but exposed himself." Pollock could not help but curse at the serious consequences Travic could cause.
Renn beside    didn't mess around.
   Travic's curse has been on for at least two months. He has been lurking for so long, and he must have planned something. Maybe he used his position in the mechanical union to do something shameful.
   He can clean up clues at home, but not in the union.
   He noticed the exposure in the morning, and immediately fled home. He didn't have time to deal with the clues in the union, and he didn't dare to make big moves to avoid being caught by the mechanical union.
   Ryan looked behind the counter and asked, "Where is Travic's office?"
   "On the fifth floor, go out the elevator and turn left to the first one."
   Pollock heard the conversation between the two, and immediately reacted and took the lead to rush into the elevator.
   With a bang, the door was knocked open.
   Travic’s office is not small. In addition to a set of luxurious tables and chairs, there are also several large cabinets filled with books and materials.
   Rehn and the three people rummaged through the boxes, hoping to find something useful.
   "What are you doing?" A middle-aged man appeared at the door of the office. He was about to question sharply, but his tone changed, "Ryan, why are you here?"
   "Mr. Kenegi."
   Ren put down the drawer in his hand and quickly explained: "I am now a member of the Demon Squad. Travic has a curse and has become a fallen one. I have escaped. We are looking for clues to his whereabouts."
   Kenegi wanted to talk to Rennes, but when he heard this, his expression changed greatly: "Travic has fallen? Are you sure?"
   "More than 90%, we just came from his house, there are no living people there." Rein replied.
   "These are all things, they are useless at all." Pollock threw away a pile of books in his hand. He looked at Kenegi and asked uncomfortably, "Who are you? What does it have to do with Travic?"
"I'm the vice president of the mechanical trade union." Kenegi maintained his demeanor. "Travic is my subordinate. I don't have much personal contact, but it's fairly familiar." He recalled for a few seconds and continued: "Five months ago, Travic exploded while repairing a magic airship. He was seriously injured and he was recuperating for two months before returning."
The meaning of    Kenegi’s words is very clear, Travic should have fallen in that story.
   "Five months ago..." Pollock was very dissatisfied. "He came back from injury to work for so long, haven't you found that he has a problem?"
   Kenegi spread his hands, "We are a mechanical union, and not a demon team. Anyway, he has no problems with his work."
   Pollock felt angry, but he also knew that if an extraordinary depraved person was deliberately hidden, it would be really difficult to find.
   The mechanical trade union has certain responsibility in this matter, but it is not the main factor.
   Ryan hurriedly rounded off and said: "Mr. Kenegi, you are more familiar with Travic, where do you think he will hide?"
"I do not know."
   Kenegi thought for a while and waved: "But I have a way, you come with me."
   The three people followed Keneji to the second floor and entered a spacious room. As soon as they entered, everyone was attracted by a huge machine.
The volume of this machine is very large, it almost occupies most of the space of the room. It is made up of countless parts. There are tens of thousands of gears, columns, rockers, and connecting shafts, and each part has been polished. , Shining with the light of metal, they are neatly assembled in rows and snapped together, and finally become a complex and precise mechanical instrument!
  Ryan recognized this mechanical instrument the moment he saw it.
   "Differential machine? Or analysis machine?"
On the earth of the previous life, someone made a semi-finished differential engine, which was displayed in a museum along with several replicas. The more advanced analysis engine only exists on the drawings, but in Ellenus, this kind of mechanical computer It has entered the application field.
   Rehn's eyes widened to observe, and he quickly discovered that it was very different from the differential engine in his impression.
   This instrument is not purely mechanical. It is connected to a steam engine to provide power. This steam engine does not burn coal, but some kind of expensive magic crystal ore.
   The surface of the steam engine is covered with runes and lines, emitting magical energy.
   This energy not only provides heat for the steam engine, but also separates a part of it and flows along the pipeline to the huge machinery, not knowing what purpose it is.
   "A difference machine that combines mechanical and magic?"
   Ren was very curious about what this machine could be used for.
   There is an operating table next to the mechanical instrument. Two people who look like operators are sitting. Seeing in their souls, they are both mechanics.
   Seeing Keneji coming in, the two got up and respectfully said: "Your Excellency, Vice President."
   "Well, sit down." Kenegi drew a white card from his jacket. There were many small holes on one side of the card, and Kenegi's portrait and brief information were printed on it.
  He handed the card over and said: "Call out Travic's work files for the last three months, including all the documents and travel records he has handled."
   "Yes." The mechanic took the card and inserted it into the card slot in front of it.
   His lips moved slightly, as if he was chanting some spell silently.
   The voice was low and unaudible, Renn had no time to listen carefully, but only vaguely heard a few words: "Bell the bell...push the lever...inject life...sing in unison, praise..."
   Then, he pushed the rocker on the side.
   buzzing...
The brilliance of magic shines, energy flows, the steam engine roars, pushes the piston to do work, the power is transmitted to the differential engine, drives the machine, rows of large and small gears rotate, one by one engraved parts rolling over. Flying, the huge mechanical instrument emits regular metal crashing sound.
   click click...
  The sound is as dense as raindrops. This is not music, but it sounds strange and pleasant.
   For a while, the whole room vibrated slightly.
   Watching this dazzling scene, Ren's heart beats quickly, and he feels a kind of mechanical beauty inexplicably, and he is a little intoxicated!
   Not only him, but Pollock and Frida were also shocked and speechless.
   Kenegi saw the trio's reaction, and his eyes were a bit proud.
   The mechanic turned out a book, opened the page, and seemed to be looking for something, then quickly pressed it on the console and entered a series of numbers.
   The machine ran continuously for more than ten seconds, and stopped with a snap.
   A bright magic light shot out from the console, shining on the opposite wall, forming a full page of clear written records.
   Ryan quickly browsed and found that these were all related to Travic.
   He was very surprised. It turned out that this magic difference machine outputs content in this way, which is more magical than imagined.
   "input, calculation, control, storage, output..."
   "Except for the slow calculation speed and complicated operations, this is no different from a computer."
   Lane was amazed.
   The records displayed on the wall are numerous and complicated. It has been summarized very clearly, one item, one column, and the coexistence of words and numbers, densely packed, totaling hundreds of pages. This kind of thing like a database, for those who have not been in contact with it, is no different from the heavenly book, and most people simply cannot understand it.
   Pollock felt dizzy after a few glances, and his eyes were dark.
   Frida was also at a loss.
   Rehn couldn’t be more familiar with these. He turned his head quickly, his eyes swept line by line, and at the same time turned on the camera function of the phone, secretly took pictures of each page, trying to find useful clues.
   Kenegi told the mechanic to go away and do it himself.
   He checked these records, pushing the lever every time he finished reading a page, the machine ran for a few seconds, and the content on the wall turned to a new page.
   Time passed by, and there were only mechanical and magical sounds in the room.
   Pollock took out the sound meter frequently and walked around anxiously.
   Just when he couldn't help asking questions, Rennes and Kenegi said in unison: "Warehouse No. 35, Port Wallen Wharf."
   "What?" Pollock didn't understand for a moment.
Kenegi looked at Rennes, his face could not hide his surprise, and explained: "This is the place where Travic has had the most intersections in the past three months. He used his work convenience to purchase a lot of materials to send to this. Inside the warehouse."
   "Even though he did it very concealedly, it was still exposed under the statistics of the magic extension."
   "Travic should be hiding in this warehouse now."
   Rehn said in his heart, it turned out that this differential machine was called "Magic Extension", which was quite appropriate.
  Pollock didn’t care about these explanations at all. He only understood one thing, that is, he found Travic's whereabouts~EbookFREE.me~ exclaimed: "We will rush over at once."
   Before the words fell, he rushed out.
Rennes took a step slower and wanted to say goodbye to Kenegi, but he saw the other side standing up and saying, "I'll go with you. Travic is a level five mechanic, and he is the top talent in our union. Very strong, I'm afraid you are not opponents."
   "Then trouble Mr. Kenegi." Renn did not refuse.
   Kenegi sighed: "As the vice president of the union and as his boss, this is my responsibility."
   The two of them went downstairs and set off without further delay.
   The Demon Squad's car drove out of the gate of the Mechanic Union. Kenegi's car followed behind, sprinting all the way, and quickly arrived at the Port of Valen.
   This pier is on the bank of the river in Los District. There are many factories in Los District, and there is a large force of mechanical trade union here. Therefore, the throughput of the pier is very large. Thousands of dock workers are busy, and it is a bustling scene.
   On the way, Pollock has reported the situation to the team Davenlach, and support will come soon.
   Two cars crossed the dock and quickly found warehouse 35.
   This location is a bit far from the dock, it is relatively remote, there are few people around, and there is only one road leading to the warehouse gate.
   Everyone is sitting in the car, and they can already see the warehouse door closed, it seems that everything is normal.
   Pollock drew out his soul gun, and said to the two teammates: "Don't disturb him yet, we..."
   Boom!
   The violent explosion overturned the entire car, blasted into the sky, and turned into a ball of fire.
