Cataclysm King

Chapter 31 Great Darkness Breathing Method
Ji Xun has joined the job.

Very smooth.

He became a corpse collector in the city of innocence.

With a career, it's like blending into this sin city all at once.

Flash forward three days.

No. 117, Dongcheng Street, where the branch of Golden Oak Security Company is located.

There is a lonely big red brick and glass house here.

Behind the house full of black glass stands a stone tower billowing black smoke, which is the chimney of the crematorium.

This is the work place and dormitory of the body collectors.

Three floors underground.

This is the morgue.

The corpses collected from all over the East Fifth District of Innocence City will be stored in the morgue for a few days, and they will not be incinerated until the spell power dissipates completely.

Except for transporting corpses on weekdays, no one would come to this unlucky place.

There are no living people on the entire floor, only dozens of "clients".

They were quietly stuffed in the cold grids that looked like drawers.

The air-conditioning condensed wisps of white mist on the ground, which was cold and eerie.

At this moment, in the morgue, Ji Xun opened his eyes from meditation.

He exhaled slightly, and said with emotion: "Hey, this [Darkness Breathing Method] is not very efficient."

His expression was extremely indifferent, and the iron boxes of corpses around him did not make him feel a little bit of fear.

On the contrary, it is quiet, private, and undisturbed, which is exactly what you want.

Ji Xun can use [Devil's Feast] unscrupulously to devour the extraordinary characteristics remaining in the corpse.

The only fly in the ointment is that most of these corpses have been treated with alchemy potions by the corpse collectors, and most of their extraordinary characteristics have been lost.

But even so, it was enough for his devouring needs for now.

This was his third day working as a corpse collector, and his body values ​​had changed drastically at this moment.

"Ji Xun"

Power: 1.13
Constitution: 1.09
Agility: 0.84
Spirit: 4.85
Mana: 65/65
Halo: Doom Gambler

元素亲和：暗12/光3/地4/风2/水/火3/雷1/木3
技能：【恶魔盛宴Lv0(36/500)】、【暗影潜行Lv0(12/100)】、【高级枪械专精（1566/3000）】、【大黑暗呼吸法Lv1(2/300)】

With the convenience of the profession of Corpse Collector, Ji Xun has a morbid attribute of around 0.7 when he first came to this world, and now he feels much stronger than his state before time travel.

Moreover, the affinity and spell power of each department have also grown steadily.

This is only the effect of three days.

Ji Xun can already imagine that if he really has to stay for a few months and half a year, what will his attributes grow to at that time?
The future looks promising.

He stood up and put away the booklet in front of him with the route of the Qi veins.

This is the [Great Darkness Breathing Method] he bought at the black market in Innocence City three days ago.

The name sounds bluffing, that is, the darkest breathing method on the market, and the price is nearly 5 yuan.

That's pretty much all the cash he currently has.

The purpose of buying this breathing method is to increase the affinity for darkness as soon as possible, so that you can use [Shadow Stealing] without restriction.

After hard work in this booklet, theoretically, people can cultivate to the sixth level of mantra.

Three days ago, on the night he got the brochure, he began to try to practice.

【JOKER】The comprehension +10 attribute brought by him allows him to easily understand those obscure and difficult vocabulary descriptions in the classics.

After trying a few times, he directly grasped the aura described in the classics that it takes "1-4 weeks" for normal people to find it.

That was the first time Ji Xun experienced the outrageous buff effect of savvy on skill learning.

Then he started a formal meditation practice that night.

Trying to operate the magic power in the body according to a specific law according to the breathing method, and it really can be controlled.

And along with breathing out and absorbing the dark elements in the air, after each round of operation, the spell power is also strengthened.

The change is more directly displayed on the data panel, the breath method is fully run once, and the mana value has increased by about 0.1.

A cycle of half an hour, theoretically speaking, one night of meditation can increase the mana by about 1 point.

As the proficiency increases, the efficiency of the breathing method gradually increases, and the increase in spell power also increases.

Up to three days today, the breathing method has been upgraded to Lv1, and the element absorption efficiency has increased by several tenths.

This made Ji Xun gradually realize how strong the demon mark he fused was.

But it was because of his strength that he disliked [Darkness Breathing Method] again.

[JOKER] This epic demon imprint has brought him the affinity growth of all elements. He can clearly perceive that there are various magic elements in the air, such as earth, wind, water, fire, light, darkness, thunder, wood, gold
In other words, any kind of mana he absorbs now will not cause a mana conflict.

And the [Great Darkness Breathing Method] he is practicing now only absorbs a single "dark attribute spell power", and the absorption efficiency is still very low.

It's like there are one hundred free elements of various spells in the air, and the dark elements only account for about one-tenth.Then his breathing method absorbed about a fraction of the tenth, and the final efficiency can be imagined to be low.

So Ji Xun had an idea in his mind that he didn't know if it was reasonable or not.

He felt that if he could absorb multiple element particles at the same time, wouldn't the mana power increase?

But this idea is just a thought.

Breathing method is a must-learn skill for spell card masters, and the price is also very expensive.

His broken breathing method cost 5 yuan, and the price of the "black iron quality" breathing method he asked was often 10,000+.

Not to mention the silver breathing method.

Ji Xun currently has no money to consider buying.

The only valuable things in his hands are some skill cards he got from the Blackwater mercenaries.

But when he obtained these spoils in the different dimension space, Chu Jiu kindly reminded him that it is best not to use the magic power of the corresponding attribute without proficiency.

Moreover, there is a hidden imprint of the black water group on the card, so it cannot be sold.

But don't worry.

At present, the physical fitness is not strong enough, and [Devil's Feast] devours too quickly, and there will be a feeling of indigestion.

Ji Xun plans to be a corpse collector for a while longer.

Not long after waking up from meditation, the sound of "creaking" and "creaking" metal friction came from the cold corridor.

It was the sound of the building's old elevator cables rubbing against the pulleys.

In this secluded third underground floor, it was particularly harsh.

Ji Xun heard it from a long distance away.

The iron bars of the elevator opened, and a fat boy came out.

He walked into the morgue with a few new corpses, and greeted: "The second team has sent some 'new clients', and we need to deal with them."

Ji Xun nodded and helped put the corpse into the cabinet.

This little fat man is called Gibb, he is only 16 years old, and he is also a body collector, who joined the job a few days earlier than him.

Because they are both newcomers, they are the ones who do the dirty work of moving the corpse.

Ji Xun felt that more work would suit him.

The more he can stay with the corpse, the more attributes he can devour.

But for others, the job is not so easy.

The little fat man looked tired at the moment, and there were faint dark circles in his eyes.

This was not only because he had two missions last night and did not sleep well, but also because he was contaminated by corpses.

The reason why the salary of the corpse collector is high is not because the nature of the job is taboo, the most important thing is the short life!

The out-of-control extraordinary characteristics will continue to pollute those who are close to it. Although the corpse collector has special treatment methods, but he has been dealing with corpses for a long time, the contact frequency is high, and the probability of being polluted and deformed is extremely high.

It is said that the body collectors of the Golden Oak Security Company have not been on the job for more than a year.

Putting the corpse into the box, the little fat man said apologetically, "Brother, I have to trouble you to burn those expired customers again. I really feel uncomfortable staying here."

There were dozens of corpses in the morgue, and all kinds of pollution leaked out, and his body really couldn't bear it.

Ji Xun didn't take it seriously: "Well, just put it here."

The little fat man was still a little bit sorry, and said, "I'll treat you to Downing Street for a drink when you get paid."

Ji Xun smiled: "Okay."

At this time, Gibb looked at his dark blue arm like a long corpse spot, and sighed: "Hey, it's a pity that I don't know anything, or I will become a treasure hunter. Although hunters are dangerous, it may be possible to fight." Get rich. Be a body collector."

Ji Xun didn't speak.

If possible, he also planned to work as a corpse collector for a few months first.

The little fat man said again: "By the way, tomorrow is the hunter's union's free class for Katu, are you going to listen to it?"

Ji Xun: "Yes."

There is no Transcendent Academy in this city of innocence, and he is worried about where to get a system of Transcendent knowledge. The hunters will have courses on basic card knowledge, so naturally they can't miss it.

The little fat man is also looking forward to it. It is always good to learn some knowledge: "When will we be together?"

"it is good."

Ji Xun nodded.

Just as the little fat man finished speaking and was about to leave, a voice came from the brass pipe on the wall: "Someone found a body in the first cellar at No. 17 Tailor Street. Dongjiu, let's go to the fifth team and a few people to deal with it. Remember how much?" Bring some alchemy potions."

This is the ancient communication tool of the security company. Special brass pipes can transmit orders from the office to all parts of the building.

Hearing this, the little fat man spread his hands and said distressedly: "It's time to go on a mission again."

Ji Xun also nodded.

The job of the corpse collector is still very ideal at present, but the frequency of missions is a little too high, and they can be obtained day and night.

With such a simple and simple folk style in Innocence City, it is not normal for a team in the DC area that their team is in charge of not to receive a few dead bodies a day.

There have been more than a dozen missions in the past three days.

The two didn't dare to delay, they ran up quickly, took the toolbox, and rushed onto the steam truck on the side of the road.

Steam trucks with oak trees emblazoned on their black-painted carriages raced down the street.

There were five people in the carriage.

In addition to Ji Xun and the little fat man, there is Dong Jiu, the captain with a centipede scar on his face, and two other old employees, "Scorpion Liu" and "Bao Ya".

The names of people in this world are weird. Many people in Innocence City don't like to reveal their real names, but some people really only have a nickname.

Ji Xun has become accustomed to it.

All five wore white gloves and the lifeless black clothes of the collectors.

Ji Xun and the fat man sorted out the toolbox that contained bottles and cans of alchemy potions.

Dongjiu and the other two old employees didn't intend to help at all, they just chatted boredly.

"The company sent a message saying that more than a dozen corpses were found in the cellar on Tailor Street. I'm busy today. Judging from the tone of the boss, this time the client seems to be quite troublesome."

"Tailor Street? Isn't that a civilian neighborhood? How could so many people die?"

"Who knows. I hope there aren't any troublesome clients today. I heard that yesterday, an unlucky guy from Team 7 in District [-] encountered a spell out of control while dealing with clients in the Weasel Street sewer, and the corpse deformed and grew a jagged tentacle." , directly bit off that guy's lifeblood."

"Hahaha, it's really unlucky."

"."

The conversations in the car are all small talk, but the amount of information is not small.

Ji Xun learned a lot of useful information from several people in the past three days.

But now it sounds suspicious.

In the past few days, he has been on a mission, and he has clearly memorized most of the street names in the East Fifth District of his jurisdiction.

He clearly remembered that Tailor Street was a living area for ordinary people, and there were almost no violent incidents.

Now not only people are dead, but more than a dozen at a time?

But in any case, it is a good thing for him to have more corpses.

The stronger the pollution, the better.
