Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life.

Chapter 94 A Peaceful Daily Life (Part 1)

At this moment, Zhao Weike and Sherlock, who were sitting in the driver's seat, had no idea that the two of them had brought back not some apprentice and a girl with a story, but an enemy determined to take "Helen" from them!

The two discussed the war along the way, and Sherlock even gave Zhao Weike a lesson on who Kingpin really was, so they didn't find it boring at all.

The vehicle soon returned to Sherlock's house and drove directly into the garage.

Because Zhao Weike's house has never been cleaned and is still in the state of being ransacked by Joseph, the couple, along with Anna, have had to temporarily stay at Sherlock's house.

The first thing to do when they got home was naturally to have a so-called "spoils-dividing meeting." Helen, beaming, led Doro and Anna to sit in front of a pile of gifts, constantly selecting and commenting on the gifts the two had bought.

Throughout the entire time, Zhao Weike watched the three people sitting on the floor in the living room with a smile, his eyes filled with an indescribable tenderness.

But during this cozy time, Sherlock was hiding in his studio, carefully repairing the photo album he treasured, while trying hard to recall the contents of the photos inside.

It wasn't until Helen discovered Sherlock's disappearance, quietly entered Herlock's workshop, and gently gave him a hug, that she spoke to him.

"These are just proof that memories exist, Sherlock. The truly beautiful things have always been in our hearts, haven't they? Beauty has no end, and we in the future will surely create memories that are far happier than those in the photo album."

Although her words eased Sherlock's obsession with the album that recorded his life after his time travel, he still stubbornly tried his best to repair it, even though most of the photos were no longer clear or were just scraps of paper. Sherlock was still enjoying the process.

After restoring the photo album, Sherlock treasured it and placed it in the most prominent place in his home as a memento of his memories.

After all, as Helen said, one must always look forward.

However, this mood did not last long. After one night, when the sun rose the next day, almost no one had the mind to think about anything else.

Helen and Zhao Weike needed to tidy up their house. To make things easier, Zhao Weike not only hired a large number of cleaners, but also hired some novice cleaners through the Continental Hotel, all to make their house cleaner.

Even Anna, who had just arrived, was conscripted by Zhao Weike and sent to his house to help with chores.

As for Sherlock...

Although Sherlock wasn't forced by Zhao Weike to work as a cleaner, it didn't mean he was having an easy time. On the contrary, compared to Zhao Weike and his group, Sherlock was the one suffering the most.

Because the assassin sent by Viggo was unethical, the first thing Sherlock did upon waking up was to check his beloved car. After all, it had been hit by a bomb, so a proper check was necessary.

The good news is that, with the help of the All Things Analysis, Sherlock discovered that his car didn't need too many repairs. At most, some rubber parts needed to be replaced or repaired, and most of the rest could be fixed with sheet metal work.

These things could be easily accomplished with the help of alchemy, but it was also the first time Sherlock had learned just how ruthless Tony had been when he modified the car for him.

To put it simply, all the metal parts in Sherlock's car are made of the same material as Tony's armor!

Furthermore, in order to test the cushioning system of his armor, Tony Stark directly enlarged the prototype of the cushioning system and installed it on Sherlock's car.

This explains why, even though the car had already taken off after the bomb exploded, Zhao Weike and Sherlock inside remained unharmed.

Of course, Sherlock felt that his car was already in perfect condition and only needed to be repaired, which was not a big problem.

What truly made Sherlock go bald was Helen's Cadillac Escalade, which Zhao Weike had commissioned to modify.

That damned Zhao Weike went to great lengths to force Sherlock to modify the Escalade into a 3D-proof vehicle like Sherlock's Raptor, which nearly made Sherlock tear his hair out.

The reason is simple: Sherlock is not Tony Stark; he can't change the three-in-one registration at the vehicle management center with just a phone call.

Of course, it's not impossible to change, provided you accept the legendary American efficiency, which is measured in months.

Therefore, the biggest problem facing Sherlock was how to ensure that the vehicle had sufficient defensive capabilities without changing the engine or chassis number, and at the same time without increasing the weight of the vehicle!

What? You're asking why Sherlock didn't change the engine?

It's very simple. With the ability of alchemy, there are actually two modification options for the vehicle's engine: either use alchemy to strengthen the engine, or directly modify the engine into an alchemical engine.

The first type of engine enhancement is easy to solve. Sherlock just needs to study mechanical manufacturing and understand the technical terms in engines, such as combustion ratio and conversion rate, before he can enhance it.

As for the second option, modifying the entire engine?

Well, that's possible, but Sherlock doesn't want to become Zhao Weike's personal 4S shop. And if he really did that, all three major components would need to be modified and strengthened, otherwise, each one would be a problem.

Making a car move is, after all, a complex system, and Sherlock, a complete novice, dared not touch it casually.

So Sherlock was left with only one path: to find a way to strengthen the vehicle's exterior using magic runes and alchemy arrays, just like Meow Meow Hammer did!

Of course, before carrying out the reinforcements, in order to ensure that things like explosions do not damage the car's three major components, Sherlock also needs to use alchemy to create a complete set of chassis protection plates for the Escalade, and also reinforce things like the tires and shock absorbers.

So when Anna took a break in the morning and ran over to check on Sherlock, she saw him looking like a real car mechanic, covered in dust, hunched over under the car, desperately twisting a wrench.

When Sherlock was called to dinner that evening, he was found to have his left arm completely disintegrated into dozens of small mechanical arms, and he was holding a very thick book in both hands, flipping through it while pulling at his hair, while the whole car was flashing with colorful lights.

Until the sun completely disappeared below the horizon, apart from Doro, who was still full of energy despite not being very active and running back and forth between the two houses, everyone else looked like their souls had been drained.
