Chapter 4: Xuanka
"The cash transport truck of the Federal Huamo Bank was robbed and overturned in the western suburbs of the city. The location of the crime, the police were attacked in the process of handling the case, nine police officers died, five police officers and the police inspector were seriously injured, all four unconscious bandits died, 13 reporters, doctors and other staff members died, eight were seriously injured, and one was slightly injured.
Diling Satellite TV, report on the spot for you. โ
These news have begun to appear on the late-night news, and this case that is enough to shake the entire Federation has completely dispelled the drowsiness of many people late at night, and many people who were originally lying in bed lazily watching TV have half propped up.
Wanyu City has always been not very peaceful, but the loss of manpower of the federal police, or such a large manpower conversion, in Wanyu City for so many years, can be regarded as great news, not to mention the case itself, as well as this jaw-dropping robbery.
When the news began to spread, it was already the third watch, and the two black figures had just ghostly jumped back to the urban area of Wanyu City.
The Kamikaze Federation and the Holy Land Alliance, formerly known as the Human Alliance, were divided into two incompatible parties, the North and the South, but they were basically the same in many systems: the human race was divided into nine classes, the first class was the nobility of the federal government, the eighth class was the slum pariahs who had no human rights, and the cities were forbidden to enter, and the ninth class was some special criminals, who were even lower than the untouchables.
Although they can settle in the city as long as they obtain the status of the seventh class, in fact, there is not much difference between the places where the seventh-class residents live in the city and the slums outside the city, the only difference is that they are guaranteed to be safe and can basically enjoy the city life.
The Fengdu poverty area in the east of the urban area of Wanyu City is where the seventh- and sixth-class poor people live.
The barren land and dilapidated low-rise residential buildings look like the illegal building complexes of decades ago.
At this time in the middle of the night, there are still many floors with lights on and watching TV. The shadows of Han Xu and Wang Yanyan jumped one after another on the dim street below the floor, but the way they walked in secret was extremely subtle, leaving no clear figures for anyone to capture, and no one who slept late at night could detect their suspicious figures.
Although Wang Yanyan is fat, his skills are not slow at all, otherwise the two who formed the partner would not have been able to follow the cold for so many years, steadily following the cold continuation, maintaining a certain distance but at the same time ensuring that both parties are in each other's sight.
The two of them ran all the way to a residential building that was half-collapsed, and the glass was almost completely shattered with the collapse, and it felt like it might collapse completely at any time, but it was still inhabited.
The two hid in the shadows, Wang's eyes gasped, and Han Xu was also covered in sweat, the two were very close to each other, but there was no communication. After making sure that no one was following him, and that he had left no traces of anyone to follow, Wang Yanyan threw the backpack containing the money to Han Xu, and then turned straight and jumped towards the dark alleyway on the left, like a nimble silver carp, and Han Xu only turned right after a short stay.
The two of them went in very different directions, but in this dirty and chaotic environment, there were complex paths that converged like ant burrows, and the two finally made some changes in their bodies outside a remote two-story house.
Han continued to make a detour, and took the next step to get here, and his body, which was extremely hot and dry because of rapid exercise, was overflowing with a sour feeling after relaxing his guard, and his cheeks, which were tense and tense because of the seriousness, relaxed, and exhaled a breath of hot air from his mouth.
The incandescent lamps hanging in front of the house were still on, illuminating the exterior of the house, and the two-story house was devoid of tiles, but dark yellow exposed bricks, which made the whole house look very shabby, and there was a mottled open space next to it, on which some of the mud and sand piles remained, which could be seen to be the work of some children.
When the door opens, you can see that there are a lot of books in the room, but it is still surrounded by walls.
No one can imagine that the exterminators who have been crisscrossing the underground of Wanyu City for four or five years, robbing and stealing an unknown amount of gold and silver, are so blatantly living in this impoverished place inhabited by ordinary low-class people, and the life they show is indeed as normal as ordinary low-class people.
Han Xu didn't stop, let out a long breath, and after making sure that there was no one around, he walked to the side of the shadow of the house, and quickly jumped into the house.
Everything is still business as usual, and nothing seems to have happened in this slum that has been silenced by curfew, and has nothing to do with the robbery of a cash truck dozens of kilometers away.
......
By the time he entered the room, Wang Yanyan had already finished taking a shower, and some of the original camouflage on his face that had helped him to get through the test had faded, and he was sitting on the sofa on the first floor watching the old-fashioned Brainshell TV, and he looked like an ordinary resident, as if he had never experienced anything in the first half of the night, and had been sitting here.
The fat Wang's eyes were not as happy as after the two of them successfully committed the crime, his expression was extremely solemn, and his dignified appearance appeared on his fat face, which was somewhat funny and cute, but he didn't have the slightest joy in his own heart.
Han continued to confirm the tranquility outside, only the broken road was lying quietly in the night, then he closed the door, threw his bag on the table, and his whole body was sour, just wanting to have a good sleep.
"The code of this money is recorded, you remember to solve it tomorrow, and the registration for the college entrance examination will start the day after tomorrow, and you need to use it. After it is solved, wait until the limelight passes, and then use it to help Xiaoliuer and them get through the relationship with the school. Han Xu took off his sweaty undershirt and explained.
Wang looked at the TV as if he hadn't heard it, pointed to the TV and said, "Han continued, there were many dead people." โ
Han continued to go to the bathroom to take a bath, and when he heard the words, he looked towards the TV, and there was a dull flame under the fluorescence, which was shocking across the screen. Looking at the pictures on the TV news, his face became ugly, and a wave of Ling Ran's killing intent swept by.
What was reported on TV was the explosion that erupted next to the big truck.
"It seems that this matter cannot be solved in a low-key manner. Wang Yan squinted his already small eyes, "This Tianhuo will be really ruthless, so many people's lives, they will take it if they say it, and their own lives, if they say they don't want it, they don't want it, they are so ruthless, and it is not unreasonable to be able to stand in such a high position." โ
Han Xu looked at the picture and shook his head, "There is only so much we can do...... They are not good people, neither are we, and in this world, none of us represents justice, nor evil, but only ourselves. โ
Wang Yanyan nodded, and said, "We took the initiative to provoke such a terrifying secret organization this time, but we are afraid that trouble will be indispensable in a short period of time." โ
Han Xu nodded and said, "The World Destroying Group combination has to disappear for a while. โ
"I mentioned the college entrance examination before, and they can have a range of divisions for our identities. Wang Yanyan said with a frown.
Han Xu stepped forward and rubbed his fleshy shoulders, stared at the screen and said: "Every year, there are forty or fifty thousand people who participate in the college entrance examination for foreign entrance examinations, and there are forty or fifty thousand people in Wanyu City alone, and they can't find us, and it is impossible to suspect us if they find out, after all, we live so decently and carefully." In addition, the image we have always shown is cunning, since they know that we know about the disclosure of the information about the college entrance examination, they may have a different judgment, for example, they will think that we will give up the college entrance examination this time, we can do the opposite...... It's like, every arrest before. โ
Wang Yanyan thought for a while, nodded, stretched and said, "That makes sense." โ
"Well, don't think about it, rest early, we're running out of time, forget everything and clean up the rest of the matter. Tomorrow is the time for the college entrance examination to open two months later, and we will report our name tomorrow. After saying that, Han Xu walked to the bathroom.
Wang Yanyan agreed weakly, and switched several stations at random, all of them were not interested at all, and his eyelids were fighting, and after being tired, he was sleeping.
Seventh-class citizens do not have the right to buy electrical appliances, and even if they buy TVs from the black market, there are only a few TV stations that can be seen, all of which are boring advertisements and TV movies that have been released for many years, and the TV stations in the rest of the provinces do not need to be thought about. Although it can be cracked, Wang Yanyan did not choose to do so, because Han Xu warned him that his real identity must not expose any flaws related to the World Destroyer;
Wang Yanyan was extremely tired, so he turned off the TV and went upstairs to sleep, today's exciting experience is enough for him to reminisce for a long time before going to bed, and the turning point of his future life is just around the corner, which is enough for him to look forward to.
"Oh, my rich dream, long ......" held the bag of money in his arms and muttered nonsense.
Han Xu's mood was also a little complicated, but it was more of a long-term pressure in his heart, and after taking a shower and changing into a clean white shirt, he didn't go to sleep as soon as possible, but returned to his broken study on the first floor.
The study was simple, with only two bookshelves and a desk, but this was not his destination, and Han Xu walked straight to the bookshelf, and pushed open the tattered bookshelves full of books from the middle to both sides, which announced a unique act, and when it was really completed, it really revealed a basement door.
This is his basement.
Han continued to open the door to the basement and went to his basement. There was a light rope at the place where I went down the stairs, and I felt this soft existence with ease and turned on the light.
After standing up the wooden staircase, it is dark and damp with a strong smell that makes you feel like an ancient tomb that has settled down in time.
Compared to the four walls above, the basement is much more fully equipped, with a clean floor covered with yoga mats, a sandbag hanging in the center, a modified treadmill, and a series of exercise facilities such as horizontal bars.
And most importantly, a desk full of books on the knowledge of the Xuanka.
The basement was clean and tidy, and it was evident that it was cleaned a lot, and it was evident that he was staying here a lot, and only then would the surface of these things be completely free from dust.
Han Xu's expression softened.
I was very tired, but I didn't want to rest like that.
"It's one thing whether you can get in, it's another thing if you can't slack off. โ
The college entrance examination is the best way for low-class people to climb up, and it is also an opportunity that he needs to seize. Regardless of his inner identity, his most superficial identity is still a lowly seventh-class citizen.
Everyone's life needs to change, in such a cruel era, I don't want to die, I can only climb up.
The same is true of studying, and the same is true of practice.
A punch hit the sandbag, and the brute force made the whole sandbag shake constantly, and after several punches one after another, the sandbag made of this special material felt like it was about to be exploded, and then it stopped.
The sandbag flickered as he sat down at the lonely desk and carefully pulled out a shoebox-sized silver metal box from a drawer.
The cold box is not big, but the contents are worth enough to hit everyone's head.
He turned on the lamp and opened the box with the key hanging on his chest, and the bright light of the lamp shone into it, shining the dull black inside like black crystalsโinside were black cards.
Some of them are fireball cards, some are air shield cards, some are blast cards, and there are various types of Xuan cards...... Without exception, all of them are black one-star cards, and in order to make it easier to distinguish, there are corresponding patterns on them, and different patterns represent different cards. These were seized a year and a half ago when they robbed a group of Xuanka smuggling teams, and the two of them worked hard to get the box.
These are basically the best one-star cards in the world today, and they are from the hands of Gu Yun, the current federal card-making master, and their value is much higher than that of ordinary one-star cards. The level of Xuanka is from one to nine, although it is the lowest-grade one-star Xuanka, but it is from the hand of Gu Yun, which is enough for many Xuanka masters to covet it.
As for not using these Xuanka today, it is because the Xuanka trademark is clear, and there is a very clear "cloud" pattern in the upper left corner, combined with the robbery a year and a half ago, it is easy to remind people of the head of the World Destroyer. In their original plan, the ideal result was not to reveal the identity of the destroyer, giving the opponent and the federal government more room for confusion, so they used a black market to trade without trading information circulation and no trademark, but the plan did not catch up with the change, and it was still exposed.
A name that is too loud, or too notorious, may not be a good thing for them, who are also half of the dark forces, after all, the so-called grand thief is self-comforting, it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, black and white, and what they do is black after all. The fire that burned on the head of the Exterminator was too big and too big over the years, and one year was not enough time to smooth out anything, so they kept trying to divert some.
......
Han Xu held a black card in his finger, and the deep black background of the card reflected the bright light of the lamp, like a narrow sword light, and slapped under his eyes, and his gaze looked at the desk.
On the table, there are also scrap cards made by himself.
Martial artists have terrifying powers, but the ability of the human body is limited after all, and Xuanka is a tool to exert external powerful abilities, the most esoteric means in this world.
Making a Xuan Card and using a Xuan Card are two completely different things, although they both consume extremely mental power, but they are completely different in principle, and the talents required are completely different, which are two completely different disciplines today, just like a sniper can use a good sniper rifle is one thing, and being able to produce a good sniper rifle is another.
The materials of the Xuanka are simple, but they are also very expensive: the source gold card base, and the energy source with great energy - flowing ink. The shallow lines on the Xuanka are concave, which is the key source of the power of the Xuanka, and the production of the Xuanka is also the condensation of the card.
What is needed to make a Xuan card is the injection of spiritual power, the control of new energy ink, and the mastery of the card pattern, what you have to do is to rely on the spiritual power to make the energy dilute into the card pattern and successfully condense on the bottom of the source gold card, without the slightest mistake. The stronger the Xuanka pattern, the more complex it is, and the greater the requirements and difficulties of manufacturing.
Because of the need for human mental power as the source of production, Xuanka cannot be mechanized and can only be artificial, which also leads to the popularity of card makers and the high cost of Xuanka.
Making a Genka sounds easy, but the actual production is extremely difficult and requires a unique talent. He has been studying this for a long time, but he has never succeeded. Once he masters the production of the Xuanka, even if it is only a one-star Xuanka, such as the fireball card he uses today, it can still represent huge profits, which means that even if he is not admitted to university, he can get a fifth-class status, and get out of this slum that seems to be one level higher than the slum and actually has not much difference.
Of course, he didn't care about this, for him, all he cared about was saving money, and the shortcut of making his own Xuan card and using it himself. In the long run, a Xuanka master who wants to stand at the top still needs to make his own cards, which can be regarded as one of the foundations he is now building for reaching the top.
After carefully perceiving the pattern of the fireball card in his hand, he took out a titanium pen from the drawer, and then took out a source gold card base, carefully dipped it with a good transparent ink, hung the pen on the bottom of the card, and then closed his eyes.
With the injection of his spiritual power, his hand began to twist slightly on the card, as if he was drawing some strange lines, and this pattern is the card pattern, with the slight twisting of his hand, the card began to emit a red light.
These lines seem simple, but there seem to be thousands of lines in the lines, and any slight trembling, even any change in strength, will make these lines have a slight change, just like dominoes, leading to a series of changes, and ultimately leading to very different results.
The dignified complexion of the cold continues, and the difficulty of card making can be imagined.
......
The light flowed, changing as the lines he drew expanded, and thousands of changes were in it, not full of mystery and fantasy brilliance, as if there were raging flames tumbling in it, and the intoxicating colors were filled with a terrifying and powerful atmosphere.
The temperature in the air has faintly increased a few points, and beads of sweat oozed from the cold forehead in just a few seconds.
However, after only ten seconds of drawing, something went wrong with the pattern that was still precipitated by the light, and the light began to dim, and this dimness meant complete failure. His brows furrowed, and the light on the bottom of the card suddenly went out, and all the mysterious light encountered the black hole, and the news was instantaneous.
"Failed again?"
"Kadow Kadao...... After spending so much time and so much money trying to master the creation of Xuanka on his own, but never succeeding, it seems that it is time to give up. โ
No one is a true all-rounder, and when it comes to hitting a wall, Xuanka Manufacturing is always the biggest wall he has ever hit. It takes time for people to see themselves clearly, and today he can see completely that he has no chance with card making.
Han Xu stuffed all these waste cards into the drawer, sighed in frustration, took out a practice card from the box, and began to practice the control of the Xuan card non-stop.
I failed too many times in card making, and although I was still inevitably disappointed, I was still used to it, and I was soon able to accept this bleak ending.
His gaze fell back on the practice card.
The martial artist is to practice physical and martial arts, the mechanic uses hot weapons or other combat weapons, and the Xuanka master is to control the Xuanka. The three types of martial artists with completely different combat methods are rare in this world, and not everyone can become the pride of the sky.
Urging the Xuanka, what is needed is also the same spiritual power as the card, or perception, people with such talents have the same unique spiritual power injected into the Xuanka, feel the card patterns in the Xuanka, and after mastering the specific urging method, you can make the Xuanka burst out with terrifying power.
This kind of practice-type Xuanka is not harmful, and what is practiced is the speed of injection of spiritual power, and the strength of spiritual power and induction.
I saw that as Han Xu's eyes closed, the black Xuanka began to emit a faint blue light, like a neon sign with electricity on. The lines on the card are magnified tenfold like the reflection of the frame, suspended in the air facing the front of the card, and the brilliance slowly circulates in it, like a card composed of light;
The picture is particularly fantastical and gorgeous.
Han continued to close his eyes, and his eyes were pious and profound.
Looking at the map of the Federation on the wall, it was his own hand-drawn more than ten years ago, and now it seems very childish, but it is his true heart.
There are two parts to the map, which are the division of the world today: the human area and the monster area. The monster area surrounds the human area, and the humans are like weak egg yolks curled up in egg whites. The monster area is depicted with strange-looking man-eating monsters. The human settlement area is divided into two parts, north and south, bounded by a wide and long mountain range, and the kamikaze federation in the south is painted on the top of a man-eating blood basin mouth!
......
The basement is quiet, the night is deep, and the teenager is trying.
The night sky is like a tongue with a big mouth open, greedily licking the devastated land.
Black and white, tonight is noisy.
Under the firmament, the devastated land, the World Destroyer, who had disappeared for a year, once again set off a bloody storm in Wanyu City, the southern city of the Divine Wind Federation......
The ambition of the young man is not only in this Wanyu City, but as big as this world.
