Cataclysm King

Chapter 43 The Maze of the Necropolis

Time flies.

Ji Xun spent two peaceful days.

In the past two days, apart from going on missions to collect corpses from various streets in the fifth district, he spent the rest of the time in the morgue practicing the breathing method of the golden fragment.

Practicing breathing method is very boring, especially for beginners.

The breathing method to condense mana power needs to inhale the free and collected various elemental particles in the air, and then cooperate with the tricks of those formulas to run in the body for a week.

The whole process requires full concentration, and there must be no mistakes in the middle.

Otherwise, once the qi dissipates, the cycle will be abolished.

It's like counting silently from 1 to 10000 in my heart, without interruption, and without falling asleep.

The effect of this golden fragment far exceeded expectations.

But at the same time, the difficulty of practice is several times more difficult than that of [Darkness Breathing Method].

The difficulty of each cycle is probably like counting silently from 1 to 10W.

It's no wonder that the owner of the classic book shop thinks it's a strange idea to learn the breathing method of absorbing multiple elements.

After all, this is not difficult for ordinary people to digest.

At the same time, it is difficult to control the breathing of multiple elements, and to maintain the delicate balance of the mantras of each element in the body, which is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Just getting started is very difficult.

Even Ji Xun himself, if he didn't have the premise of "savvy +10" by the treacherous man, he wouldn't have the confidence that he could master this breathing method in a short time.

Fortunately, he is savvy enough.

And the temper can endure loneliness.

As long as there is no mission, he can sit for most of the day every day.

His super-high comprehension allowed him to quickly understand some tricks of the breathing method. After getting familiar with it, it gradually became like breathing, as if it was an instinct.

At least the first formula is already very proficient.

Governor Cao's family did not come to the door, and the troubles in the cellar on Tailor Street were gone, and there were no strange people to disturb during the period.

The mana value is soaring every day.

Everything is moving in a good direction again.

In the past two days, although Ji Xun himself had no troubles, the city of Innocence was very lively.

Corpse collectors can always come into contact with many murder scenes and know more first-hand information.

In the past two days, the field missions have become more frequent.

Afterwards, I found out that apart from the noise I made in the black market on Dark Rain Street two days ago, there were many fights in the city.

More importantly, there was a rumor in the city of innocence.

It was rumored by the intelligence businessman that the Cao family of the governor's mansion got a very high-grade ancient relic!

It is said that it was the mysterious relic brought out by "Lone Wolf" Baron in Devil's Crossing, and there are also rumors that it is a catastrophe related to the catastrophe brought out by a mercenary group, and that the treasure of the 407 space was taken by the Cao family. Got it. Various versions are available.

In short, it is a treasure.

In the black market of Innocence City, a huge reward was also offered, and a mysterious person begged for this treasure with a lot of money.

So in the past two days, unknown people have been sneaking into the governor's mansion to investigate, and even assassinated the governor several times.

Ji Xun's first reaction when he heard the news was not to wonder what kind of relic it was.

Instead, he felt that someone wanted to fish in troubled waters and disrupt the situation in Innocence City.

Even the news of the relic was deliberately spread by someone.

It was as if someone threw a stone into the pool, and the water was muddy all of a sudden, exposing some tortoises, turtles, and silver carp that were hidden in the mud.

As he expected, the fighting in Innocence City became more and more frequent in the past two days.

Because the dark rain street incident exposed too many hidden stakes of the Cao family, the conflict between the governor's mansion and several big gangs in the lower city became more and more acute.Recently, a lot of outsiders of unknown forces and local gangsters have poured into the city. Some people even attacked the Nuggets Wharf, the only way to the Old Continent.

In retaliation, various assassination rewards for the governor's mansion appeared on the black market. There was a reward of 20 for killing a law enforcement officer, 50 for killing a guard of the governor's mansion, and even the governor.

This price tag exacerbated the turmoil in Innocence City.

Rain is coming.

This also led to the fact that the cremators in the major corpse collection branches almost never stopped.

Ji Xundao also likes this excitement.

The more lively the Cao family was, the less time it would take to find him.

Others would also think that the treasure has fallen into the hands of the Cao family.

What's more, the quality of the corpses harvested from missions is much higher.

Although the corpse collector is the lowest level, he can participate in the aftermath of many high-end incidents.

Ji Xun felt that with this posture, there was no guarantee that there would be another big opportunity like "Tailor Street Cellar".

With the halo of a bad luck gambler on his body, he felt that the possibility was not small.

Risks certainly coexist.

But Ji Xun was a little bit looking forward to it.

However, there is one thing that Ji Xun never thought of.

He came to be a corpse collector before in order to devour extraordinary characteristics.

However, the occupational diseases of the corpse collectors were ignored.

Ordinary corpse collectors have been exposed to pollution all year round, and their bodies must become weaker and weaker.

But because of [Feast], Ji Xun's body became stronger day by day.

Now the physical fitness value is around 3.6, which is more than three times that of before.

The corresponding increase in attributes is also reflected in the body shape, and the muscle dimension is also much larger.

Although the melee professionals in the streets of Innocence City are all strong men, the corpse collectors should not be.

This made Ji Xun have to wear some loose clothes, hunched over and pretended to be weak.

Occasionally, the blood is too strong, and I will draw a light smoke to pretend to be polluted.

Fortunately, he had solid acting skills in his previous life, so he didn't miss any flaws for the time being.

But as time goes on, he will get stronger and stronger, which is a big problem.

Ji Xun was also thinking about how to solve this hidden danger in the future.

After lunch, Ji Xun came to the office of the fifth team.

Today is payday.

The body collector is a high-risk occupation, and the salary is paid once a week.

Knocking on the door, it happened that Captain Dong Jiu and two other people were inside.

Without any friendship other than work, Ji Xun walked in and said directly: "Captain, I'll get the salary."

Dong Jiu watched him come, opened the drawer and randomly took out a thin stack of banknotes, and said, "This is yours."

Ji Xun took it, and knew that the number was obviously wrong without counting.

The salary of the corpse collector advertisement is 3500/week, and the most in hand is more than 1000 yuan.

He asked directly: "I see that the company's recruitment says"

Before he finished speaking, Liu, the old team member next to Dong Jiu, seemed to know that he would ask such a question, and said sarcastically, "Do you think the captain doesn't go up and down? If there is no captain."

Ji Xun was not interested in listening to this guy's words at all. Before he finished speaking, he confirmed it again: "That is to say, I can only take so much?"

What he didn't understand was that the three of them had long regarded this position as a cash cow.

You don't need to do a lot of work, but you get a lot of money, all relying on grouping to squeeze newcomers.

Hearing this, Dong Jiu narrowed his eyes and looked over, and asked back, "Otherwise, what do you think?"

Sometimes, you can tell with just one look that some people are really evil.

Before being exiled, Dongjiu was a robber who murdered and robbed goods, and the other two were rapists, and the other was a human trafficker for illegal human trafficking.

Listening to Ji Xun's expression as usual, he said lightly: "Oh."

The Innocence City has nothing to say.

The law of the jungle is the basic rule.

With that said, he turned around and left.

This attitude stunned the three of Dongjiu.

Ji Xun doesn't care about the money.

2000 yuan can't even buy a single page of the breathing method.

Not to mention resentment.

Such a small role is not worthy of attention at all.

But Ji Xun also believes in a death truth, which belongs to him and belongs to him.

The job is still needed right now.

Just keep the rest of the wages with those guys temporarily.

After receiving his salary, Ji Xun originally wanted to go to the morgue to dispose of the corpse, and by the way, continue to devour extraordinary characteristics.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got on the elevator, a loud shout came from the brass pipe.

"Hey, boys, it's time for a big job! All the corpse collectors in East Fifth District hurry up and get guys into the car, remember to bring more body bags!"

"Boss Gong, what happened?"

"Just got the news that a group of guys attacked a train carrying supplies from the upper city to the elevator near the large cemetery in the suburbs. Now the two sides are fighting fiercely."

"Who is so courageous to attack the inner city material train?"

"Probably predators or gangsters. Whatever it is, a lot of people may die this time. We have to be busy. We have to hurry up, or we will be late and let the other teams arrive first, and there will be no oil and water."

"okay!"

"."

Temporary missions are normal for corpse collectors, and they are more frequent these two days.

But...big job?
Ji Xun suddenly became interested.

The usual sunrise mission is a small team, but this is the first time that the four teams in the East Fifth District are together.

Ji Xun recognized who the thick and rough voice was, Gong Xu, the director of the Yinyue Company Branch in East Fifth District.

Because Gong Xu has a good relationship with the top management of the Golden Oak headquarters, he can always get first-hand information.

This also allowed several corpse collection teams in the fifth east area to reap more benefits.

A firefight means that there will be a lot of corpses. The corpses of gangsters who dared to rob freight trains are much more valuable than the corpses of gangsters who were fighting in the city.

This is a greasy corpse collection task.

And it's in the outskirts of the city, so you have to rely on robbing.

Whoever gets it is whoever gets it.

"A suburban cemetery?"

Ji Xun's thoughts changed again.

He remembered seeing teammate recruitment information in the Hunter Union before.

That seems to be a rudimentary different-dimensional space, not too difficult.

Without delay, he quickly took the materials and ran out of the dormitory with the toolbox he was carrying, and got into the truck parked on the side of the road.

Without waiting for a moment, the four teams of corpse collectors from the East Fifth District drove out of the city in a mighty manner.

There are several thousand meters of rock formations between the city of innocence and the federal city above the rich mineral layer. In the past, the exiled prisoners had to walk for several months.

Now that the Old Continent has been discovered, the nobles on the upper floor have built an elevator, and a large number of people and materials are transported down every day.

There are also many treasures produced in the ruins of the old continent, which will be transported from the city of innocence to the upper level.

And between the city of innocence and the elevator, there is a railway of more than 100 kilometers.

This has also become the target of some robbers who plunder supplies.

In the carriage, Captain Dong Jiu and the other two seemed a little excited.

After all, such a "big job" really depends on luck, maybe you can get rich overnight.

As long as you can arrive at the first time, the trophies in the suburbs will all belong to the corpse collector.

Now it's all about speed.

Several steam trucks were running at full speed in the city.

There are only four people left in the car of the fifth team.

Little Fatty Gibb didn't come back after asking for leave before returning home, and he didn't know if there was any accident.

Ji Xun is the only one working now.

The Dongjiu three are a small group, they never chat with newcomers when chatting.

Ji Xun didn't want to talk to him either.

Sitting quietly in a corner alone, looking out the window.

Apart from the spectacular relic buildings, the underground city has almost no scenery to speak of.

After driving away from the outer city wall and leaving the city, there were no light sources around, and it was pitch black like deathly silence.

The headlights of the car were connected in a line, like a thorn of light piercing into the endless darkness.With the dim light, I could occasionally see some dark figures near the railway, which were ghouls and aberrations wandering the wasteland.

"Great Cemetery" is the name of a place along the Eastern Suburbs Railway of Innocence.

It is said that it is an ancient mass grave, and there are often a large number of skeleton monsters wandering here.

There is also a different-dimensional space that is almost well-known in the innocent city-【Maze of the Great Cemetery】.

Being bored in the car, Dong Jiu and the two old team members also chatted about the maze.

"[Great Cemetery Labyrinth] The entrance of this different-dimensional space has a wide range of influence, and the trigger method is not regular. At that time, everyone should be smart and don't touch things that you don't understand. In case you touch something cataclysmic and get involved It’s troublesome in the different-dimensional space. The space exploration rate is always only about 40%, so far no one knows its full picture, and it’s all luck to get out.”

"Yes."

"But captain, this maze is only a primary space, why is the exploration speed only 40%?"

"Because this is a puzzle-solving space. It is said that the scope of the maze is very large and the structure is too complicated. It would take days to waste a few days if you enter it just once. If you make a mistake, you will waste a lot of time and even get trapped in it. And this The space only produces low-level skeleton materials, and large teams and high-level hunters are not interested. Except for puzzle-solving enthusiasts and card master apprentices who need low-level necromancy materials, no one wants to come to this ghostly place. "

"Oh."

"."

After all, team leader Dong Jiu is an old prisoner who has been exiled for several years, and he knows more than ordinary people.

Ji Xun in the corner of the carriage listened carefully to their conversation.

I also have a general impression of this maze: the production is low and the risk is not small.

Nothing to be concerned about.

Not only the old continent, there are also many strange and different-dimensional spaces in the city of innocence.

Ji Xun also has a strong interest in those magical dungeons.

He hasn't thought about the existence of such a different-dimensional space until now, like fragments of a low-latitude world?God game?Or the projection of the high-latitude world?

Nothing seems right.

Just like the "enlightenment", the different-dimensional space also has an indescribable mystery.

As he thought about it, a bright light appeared in front of him unconsciously.

The destination has arrived.
