Chapter 27: A Surprising Discovery
The Northern Kingdoms - Midgard - The ruins of the kings.
"Really? He refused, a little surprised. Ah, I'm sorry, it's not that I look down on Liangying's consciousness, but I just think that in the face of the next situation, I may be safer if I leave us, and it is not difficult to rely on the King of Illusions to protect myself. ”
A man dressed in an antique robe in black and red stood beside the stone pillar of the ruins, holding a phone in one hand and pressing his hand on the stone pillar in the other, his name was Zhao Hao, one of the four captains of the Dragon Group's soul shadow powers.
"My side will be able to solve it soon, to be honest, we will take on fewer tasks to run to the other side of the planet in the future, it is laborious and time-consuming, and too complex tasks need to be split and easy to be broken by each one, because the leylines are recovering, the number of demons is rising sharply, and your actions this time are mixed with too many personal feelings...... No, I don't mean to blame you, I wish you all the best, I'll deal with the leakers when I get back, and the protection of the family has to be put on the agenda. ”
After speaking, Zhao Hao hung up the phone, he turned his head, and in the darkness, a humanoid warrior whose whole body was wrapped in black mist walked over, and under his feet, the grass and trees were all robbed of vitality, and they withered and withered in an instant.
"It's been too long, you Adepts have been comfortable for too long, and today, you'll understand the horrors of our Blightcallers," the Blightcaller raised his pitch-black sword and quickened his pace, "Tomorrow, I'll be carrying your head to the Dragons to visit you." ”
With that, the witherer jumped into the air, holding the sword in both hands, and slashed at Zhao Hao with a majestic momentum, and then a cluster of golden light suddenly pierced the sky and passed through his body, and then his body began to disintegrate rapidly.
"How could it be! That's impossible! Seeing that his figure began to dissipate, the witherer was stunned, and he didn't even see Zhao Hao make a move.
"Do you think I'll shout 'Heavenly Wheel Saint King' and summon something to fight you for 300 rounds, or do you think I won't be able to use my abilities if I don't shout?" Zhao Hao looked at the witherer who was gradually disintegrating in the air, and replied in a lazy tone, "This is not a game, some people like to shout the name of the move just because they feel a little more imposing, the soul shadow is one with us, and when the idea of 'killing you' appeared in my mind, he had already completed the action." ”
"You...... Bastards, you'll ...... one day"
Before the wither's words were finished, his body and sword blade dissipated together and turned into dust, Zhao Hao yawned, took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
"I found something useful on the pillar of this ruin, and the ambush soldiers have also been solved, come and pick me up, and send a few reinforcements to Lao Li by the way, he wants to solve it by himself and I won't stop him, but Liangying is still young after all, and doing too many cruel things at once will have a psychological shadow."
With that, he hung up the phone, and disappeared without a trace as he passed under a cedar tree.
Oldland City – a suburban mine
Ji Liangying relied on the ability of Mizuno Shinobu and the bonus of his own soul shadow, and the wound quickly healed completely, but in order not to show his stuffing, he was still wrapped in bandages, because of his previous heroic dedication, Bradley found Goodman to open the back door for him, so that he did not have to work in the mine for the time being.
However, thinking that there was not much time left for him, Ji Liangying woke up a few days ago, and limped into the depths of the mine with an iron pickaxe. But because of the consideration that strenuous exercise will cause wounds, Ji Liangying had to temporarily only serve as a supervisor.
He was still hesitating about what to do with the watch, but found that the identity of the squad leader was unexpectedly easy to use, because he could freely adjust the minimum daily working hours and working area of each worker, so there were people rushing to invite him at every meal, and everyone hoped to get a lot of pay for doing the least work in the safest area every day.
Today is the third day of coming here, Ji Liangying has roughly touched all aspects of the doorway, and at the same time he found some extremely unreasonable things, the price of smoking here is expensive, because if you want to smoke, you must use the smoking room, but the smoking room is charged, each worker's daily salary is about 600 points, of which the daily food is medium, the cost is about 100-150 points, and the entertainment items are basically calculated at 5-15 points per hour.
But the smoking room needs 60 points per hour, this outrageous price makes many smokers shy away from smoking, even as a good young man who does not touch tobacco and alcohol, Ji Liangying feels that this oppressive way to relieve pressure is not good, but it is even more unbelievable for him to substitute cigarettes.
The shop here sells a 200-box, 10-cap box of "Today's Joy", a tablet candy that can make people feel uplifted and radiant with just one piece, and the effect lasts for at least eight hours, making it a perfect substitute for cigarettes.
However, Ji Liangying never believed that there was such a panacea without side effects in this world, and while he went to those who had been taking it for a long time to observe the reaction, he asked his friends to help investigate the background of this candy.
As soon as Shinobu Mizuno, who was in charge of sending the message, sent out the message, he received a reply: "Don't taste it, normal humans take it for a long time, and this life may be over!" It's an addictive psycholepticide, and it looks exactly like the samples from the pharmaceutical factory I took people to destroy, and even the color of the pigments added! ”
After seeing this reply, Ji Liangying had an idea in his heart: This group of people is crazy, right?
Even because of this illegal drug, the workers had to be taken out as quickly as possible, and he went around for three days at most, but he didn't even know where the turtle that had to be slaughtered was.
This large suburban mine has a variety of internal departments, each of which manages different areas and responsibilities, but if you divide it into regions alone, the mine can be roughly divided into three areas.
The first block is a living area for people to live in.
The second block is the work area where the miners work.
The third piece is the above-ground world in which managers live.
According to Ji Liangying's judgment, it is impossible for the giant turtle to be in the living area, let alone in the earthly world where the managers live, there is only one place where he is, and that is the deepest part of the entire mine.
But it's not easy to sneak into the deepest part of the mine.
He didn't know much about the internals, and while he reduced the interval between the time abilities to a very short time due to the ability enhancement by Shinobu Mizuno's ability, it actually had an interval between each activation.
This interval is manifested in such a way that his figure will suddenly flash in various places, and it will definitely cause a riot in a crowded place, so he intends to find out the general direction first.
As he walked, he heard a foreman around a corner reprimanding the worker.
