Chapter 81: The Unexpected
"Goodbye, old friend, don't be so surprised." That's humane.
"Aren't you dead?"
The person who came was not someone else, but Sandru, who died of exhaustion in the tide of alien insects.
"Don't worry, I'm not a ghost, this is a rigorous science fiction world, not an absurd ghost world." Sandru said.
"I confirm your heartbeat and pulse with my own eyes, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, it can't be stopped anymore." Yun Qi couldn't believe what was happening in front of him.
"In the real world, stopping the heart is equated with death, but this is the world of reincarnation, a world where miracles are created all the time."
"Sounds philosophical, tell me about your miracle props." Yun Qi didn't have time to play tricks with him.
Since Sandru is still alive, it is imperative to ascertain whether the other party is friend or foe as soon as possible.
"Do you know what is the main basis for judging whether a person becomes a senior or not?" Sandru asked rhetorically.
Yun Qi frowned, he had already guessed the answer, but he was not in a hurry to interface.
Sandru obviously had no intention of asking the other party, and said in the form of self-questioning: "It's not the strength of the strength, not the number of tasks experienced, the only basis for judging whether a person becomes a veteran is whether there is one, or several life-saving props."
Sure enough, it was the same as conjecture.
Just as Yun Qi was inspired by Murphy's detonation of a miniature nuclear bomb and his escape from alien encirclement in a jetpack, veterans more or less have a hole card, either to save their lives or to reverse their strategy.
At the beginning, Yun Qi wondered why Sandru, who was a veteran, didn't even have a life-saving prop.
After a long time, it turned out that fake death was Sandru's means of saving his life.
"Your skill level is already full, so it can't be your skill to fake death, plus your innate ability has been exposed, so I'm guessing you're casting some kind of rare skill scroll, right?" Yun Qi guessed.
"I know I can't hide it from you."
"Are you friend or foe?" Yun Qi said solemnly.
"Does it matter?"
"What do you say?"
The two suddenly looked at each other and smiled, there was no need to say some things explicitly, there was already a result.
Sandru, who was abandoned, said that it was impossible to return to Murphy's side. In Sandru's words, the moment Murphy gave up saving him, the grace of saving his life was already clear.
The seemingly pedantic necromancer apprentice is actually not stupider than others, but has his own insistence on matters of principle. If it weren't for Murphy's betrayal first, it would have been really difficult for Yun Qi to sit down with Sandru and have a good talk.
"So, you really don't plan to take revenge on me?" Yun Qi asked again.
"To report or not to report is meaningless in my opinion."
Indeed, the two have neither a deep hatred, nor a deep hatred in the sea of blood, and it will not be beneficial for anyone to fight any longer.
And the initiator of the whole incident has already drawn a line with Sandru, and there is no point in fighting.
"Then you are here ......" After greeting for a while, Yun Qi turned to the topic.
He didn't think that Sandru was so bored that he came to catch up with him after nine deaths.
"I'm here to warn you." Sandru stated his purpose.
"Remind me! Remind me not to be an enemy of Murphy? ”
"Liangzi has been settled, does it matter whether the enemy is invincible or not?" Sandru said: "I'm here to remind you that Murphy's hole cards are not yet out."
"Then his hole card is ......" Yun Qi didn't seem to be surprised, but asked the key.
"Remember those two Terminators? Murphy has a home world of Terminator movies, producing one Terminator T-700 per month. And what is really valuable is the final reward for completing the task perfectly. ”
To be the most basic requirement to be a home world, you have to be perfect, so it's no surprise that Murphy has a deeper hole in the cards.
"The ultimate reward, what's that?"
"A crystalline of energy that can be fused with any machine." Sandru gave the answer directly.
"Energy Crystallization." Yun Qi chewed on the word slowly, and said thoughtfully, "You mean, his energy crystals are integrated into his mechanical body?"
"That's right, with the supply of energy crystals, Murphy can burst out with incredible power and break through the obstacles of slow movement."
"Then why didn't he stay until now?" Yun Qi asked.
"Because the energy chip is a mission product, not a home product."
One is the reward for the final mission, which must be unique; One is the production of the main assembly line, as long as enough time and sufficient funds are given, there will be a continuous supply of energy.
"You're saying that energy crystals are one-time items?"
"To be exact, it should be classified as consumables. As long as the energy crystals are not depleted, he can use them continuously or intermittently. Of course, the lost part can never be replaced. ”
"Well, I still have a chance."
Sandru frowned: "Chance is a double-edged sword, it can bring you hope of victory, and it is also the demon that leads you into the abyss."
"Sandru, I feel more and more like a philosopher, not a necromancer."
"Don't be sarcastic, I know you're very capable, and you took out the final boss of this mission world. Maybe you can ignore veterans, but Murphy is no ordinary veteran. He doesn't have many fewer secrets than you, and it can even be said that your luck may not be superior to his. ”
"You mean to say that the energy crystals are extraordinary?" Yun Qi chewed out the subtext of his words.
"That's right, the energy crystallization has the ability to activate all the mechanisms in a short period of time. Don't look at Murphy being affected by the weight of the mechanical body, both in terms of speed and attack frequency, which is very inconvenient. Once the energy crystallization is activated, it will definitely burst out with an astonishing speed that surpasses his original agility; In addition, in terms of defense, it has produced technology that surpasses the Predator's defensive shield, and it is not the kind of defensive shield that can only defend against range. ”
When Yun Qi was moved, Sandru continued: "I'm not raising the morale of others and destroying your prestige. The bonus of energy crystals in terms of attack is the most terrifying, it not only increases the attack power of the mechanical body, but also has a significant bonus to all technological weapons, although it may not be as perverted as your Force infusion boost, but it is not something you can afford today. ”
In the end, Sandru glanced meaningfully at the broken acceleration armor on the ground, which meant that "without the acceleration armor, you can't even defend against it." ”
Yun Qi put away the acceleration armor and said sincerely, "Thank you for the reminder."
After speaking, as long as he left, Sandru hurriedly said: "Have you listened to me, Murphy is not something you can deal with now."
"Shibei should be impressed for three days, and I am not the original me." Yun Qi said confidently.
Now Sandru stomped his foot: "Okay, I might as well tell a secret about Murphy."
(PS: It's on the shelves tomorrow, and it's said that I'm going to write a testimonial about the shelves.) )
