Chapter 69: Sebastian's Persistence
"I've thought about it for a long time." As he spoke, Yun Qi pulled Sebastian up: "Don't forget, there are talents among us who specialize in Mayan civilization. ”
[Sebastian: The male number one in the Alien vs. Predator, with the title of "rookie in the archaeological world", has a deep knowledge of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, Mayan civilization, and ancient Babylonian civilization. 】
[Innate ability: Translation, natural sensitivity to words, super recognition ability, especially in the study of ancient civilization characters, is a master. 】
"I only have research on Mayan, ancient Egypt and other scripts, and extraterrestrial writing is not my field." The male protagonist said.
"Don't be modest, I know you can do it. In a way, the Mayan civilization was also a native civilization derived from the Iron Bloods. Their writing has a high compatibility with the Iron Will. ”
As Yun Qi said, half of the words on the Iron Blood Arm (left) are closely related to the Mayan civilization, although it cannot be said to be 100% the same, but it is also inseparable.
Sebastian only looked at it for a moment, and then flipped the switch on it, encouraged by Yunqi.
At the same time, a chime came from the coat of arms:
[The character Sebastian translates the text of the Iron Blood for you, and activates the holographic map in the Iron Blood Gauntlet (left), consuming 10 opinion points.] 】
[Current Opinion: 40/100]
Sure enough, a yellow laser beam shot out from the hidden place of the arm, and at a glance, no less than a hundred miniature lasers fused together to form a 3D holographic image, which is the whole picture of the underground pyramid.
The image is clear and clear, all the details are displayed one by one, and with Sebastian's click on the alien keyboard popping up in the armguards, one part of the pyramid can be zoomed in and out at will.
And as Sebastian continued to point and zoom in on a certain part of the pyramid hologram, four familiar figures appeared in front of everyone, which was the projection of their location, and the holographic figures above were Yun Qi and the others.
The holographic image not only shows the internal structure of the pyramid, but also reflects the real-time dynamics inside, and even the small movements of the people are reflected on it.
No wonder the Predator ambushed the reincarnator at the first time, with such equipment, no wonder the reincarnator only has the share of abuse.
"Good." Yun Qi nodded in satisfaction, and turned off the hologram by the way: "Now we can go our separate ways, right?"
"But ......" Helena was still a little unwilling, to be honest, she didn't want Yun Qi to be in danger, although every word he said had a way.
After a long time, she finally found a high-sounding excuse: "However, you don't understand iron-blooded writing."
"It's not a problem, I can ask Sebastian to teach me." Yun Qi's answer immediately discouraged her.
"Do you want to learn alien writing in just a few minutes without a bit of foundation?" Tie Feng exclaimed, that is not learning ABC, without a little foundation and context, it is difficult to master complex and disorderly characters in a short period of time, not to mention the most obscure and difficult to understand iron-blooded characters.
"You don't have to learn everything, just teach me a few key points, such as open, click, zoom in, zoom out, and close." Yun Qi said lightly.
These alone are not something that ordinary people can master in a short period of time, but they have advantages in shorthand and strong memorization that others do not have. In 0020 Helena or Tie Feng, I really can't do it.
Just when Tie Feng and Helena were depressed, Sebastian's words gave them a lot of cheer.
"I refuse."
Sebastian's refusal was beyond everyone's imagination, and even Yun Qi, who was good at layout and scheming, was surprised, he really couldn't figure out that the plot character he rescued with his own hands would refuse his very reasonable request in front of others.
However, Sebastian's next words relieved all the dissatisfaction in Yun Qi's heart: "I refuse to teach you alien scripts because I ask to act with you."
"Why? You should come back to the surface with us. Tie Feng asked the question in everyone's minds.
"Because I already have demons hidden in me, and whether I return to the surface or not, death is my final destination. Mr. Yunqi, I know you have a way to delay its growth, but as a host, I know very well that it is still alive in my body, right? ”
Sebastian's eyes were firm, and he didn't see the slightest hint of intention, such a quality that even the reincarnators secretly gave a thumbs up.
Yun Qi nodded affirmatively, there is no need to deceive in this regard: "But you have to leave here, not for yourself, we are mercenaries, and our duty is to complete the entrusted task according to the will of the employer." Miss Woods is so concerned about your safety that she hired us to save you after you were kidnapped by the aliens. ”
"You've done it." Sebastian replied.
"But our mission is to bring you alive to Miss Woods, for which she promised us to give us the Iron Shoulder Cannon. For this, you know how much we paid for it? One dead and one missing. ”
One death refers to Sandru's death, and one disappearance refers to Murphy's betrayal.
Sebastian was silent for a moment, and said in an uncompromising tone: "Compared to the safety of the entire human race, my life and death are insignificant. Woods didn't know that I had terrible demons inside me. I think...... She will understand my decision. ”
"No, you have to leave with Helena." Yun Qi suddenly raised his gun and pointed it at the male protagonist's temple: "In this matter, you have no bargaining capital."
"What if you add my life?" Without fear, Sebastian grabbed the silver revolver that was fingered at the point of his head.
For a man who has long put life and death on the line, the threat of death has no effect at all.
"We really need something in Miss Woods' hands, it's important to us." Yun Qi put down his pistol very helplessly, and the person who traveled a hundred miles was half ninety, he didn't want to miss the special reward of getting the Iron Blood Shoulder Cannon at the last moment.
After a pause, Yun Qi said again: "You can meet with Woods first, and as for whether you are dead or alive later, I will not interfere."
This is tantamount to a compromise with Sebastian, there is no way, no one can threaten a person who wants to die, not even if he is as wise as Yunqi.
"I'm just afraid that when I see Miss Woods, I won't have the courage to die again."
Sebastian said this in a voice that only he could hear, but fortunately, all the people present were powerful reincarnators, although they didn't have passive hearing skills like Helena, but they could barely hear it.
Feelings: The hero and heroine are still in trouble.
In the end, Sebastian chose to compromise: "I thank you for risking your lives to save me, and I regret Miss Woods' request. However, if you need a shoulder gun, I can help you. ”
Things took a dramatic turn, and everyone who had not had much hope suddenly came to their senses.
It turned out that at the beginning of entering the pyramid, the number of shoulder cannons found by the adventuring team was three, in addition to one carried by Woods, Sebastian and the boss Wieland each brought one. It's just that Weeland's shoulder gun was lost on the way to escape.
As he spoke, Sebastian pulled out the coveted iron-blooded shoulder cannon from a backpack obscured by alien secretions.
Yun Qi couldn't help but stroke the shoulder cannon with a perfectly streamlined shape, and motioned for Helena to take it.
As the equipment was acquired, Helena's heraldic prompt sounded:
[In order to thank you for all your hard work to rescue Sebastian from the alien hatchery, and to receive Sebastian's thank you gift - Iron Shoulder Cannon.] 】
[Iron Blood Shoulder Cannon: A special plot item that can be placed on the shoulder as the main attack weapon, and requires the Iron Blood Suit to be equipped. You can also grant it to the Predator and gain the Predator's opinion, which increases his opinion by 60 points. 】
Yun Qi told Helena about the Iron Shoulder Cannon that had been taken out of Murphy's mouth.
It turned out that he was going to give Helena the opportunity to take in the Predator as a mercenary.
This made her cheeks full of joy, and she couldn't help herself, but she said, "Who is rare in your things."
Yun Qi said incomprehensibly: "This thing has harsh conditions, once you launch an attack on the Predator, you can't take him or other people of the same kind under your command." I killed a Predator and was blacklisted a long time ago. As for Iron Blade, you've attacked the Predator with the Vulcan Cannon, so you're the only one of us who is the best fit. ”
"Is it just that I'm the best fit?" Helena thought with some disappointment, and then she completely understood why Yun Qi had asked her if she had hurt the Predator.
Before parting, Yun Qi also specially responded to Tie Feng's request to make a simple alien skull shield and a short-handled tail spear from a relatively complete alien corpse.
It's just that he has a problem with crafting tools, as Yunqi's only paratrooper/knife was scrapped by the dissolution of strong acid blood during the last crafting.
Fortunately, Helena boldly handed over the vampire dagger to Yun Qi, anyway, it was given back by Yun Qi, and she didn't feel distressed if it was broken, and the most important thing was that this dagger had no room to play in the world of "Alien vs. Predator", and it wouldn't have any big performance in the future world, so she simply used it as a consumable, and she didn't feel distressed if it was broken.
Making an alien corpse is no easy task, not only to grasp the strength of the blade when cutting, but also to be careful with the alien blood that spills out.
No matter how careful Yun Qi was, he still ran into trouble after completing the production of the two skull shields.
The alien tail is their most sensitive part, which makes up for the invisible blood vessels of the naked eye, and is prone to oozing green blood if you are not careful. This is how Yun Qi's own paratroopers/knives were scrapped in the first place.
Unexpectedly, this time the boat capsized in the same place, and the blood oozing from the alien tail quickly leaked out, and this Yun Qi, who had amazing insight, was so frightened that he immediately pulled the knife out of his hand.
Although Helena had stated in advance that she didn't care about the dagger, Yun Qi couldn't afford to take it for granted. Helena is not herself, and after experiencing the world twice, she will get limited equipment, which is really ruined, which greatly affects her close hand-to-hand combat ability.
Fortunately, Yun Qi's eyes were extraordinary, and he quickly withdrew the dagger at the first time when he cut the epidermis of his tail, and with his 15 points of agility, it was not difficult to do.
But when he thought that he would avoid being contaminated with blood, Yun Qi's face suddenly changed.
