Chapter Eighty-Nine: Smelting the Hearth

"You have to know that from a standpoint, we have a supportive attitude towards the mutant community, but due to pressure from the top, we can't make a clear statement......"

"These are not too big problems, mainly because of our series of propaganda later, and we may need ......"

When Su Jing pushed open the door of the teleportation room, he happened to see Carl Lace Natural and a man in a black tactical suit sitting in the corridor facing the street drinking coffee. Seeing Su Jing coming out of the teleportation room, Carl Lace picked up the cup and gestured to him, and Su Jing nodded in return.

The man sitting across from her also turned his head, with a pair of sunglasses on his face and some kind of hearing aid-like device on his ear. He stood up and politely shook Su Jing's hand.

"Hello, adventurers from the otherworldly realm, welcome to New York, the center of this universe...... Look at your expression...... It's a shame I didn't fool you. I'm Hawkeye...... Or call me Barton. The man who called himself "Hawkeye" seemed to be very talkative and witty, "Hmm...... It looks like you have something to say, so we'll see you next time. ”

As Hawkeye strode away with coffee, Su Jing and Xing Batian found a chair to sit down at the round table of Carl Lace, the girl put down the coffee cup in her hand, and then asked:

"What are the results of the probe? Did you find any clues? ”

Su Jing understands that Xing Batian is not good at words, and at this time, he usually appears to speak by himself. He coughed and said, "The disruptors in the venue were sent by an anti-mutant underground militant group, and this organization is controlled behind the scenes by a woman known as the 'Black Queen', whose name is Selene. Now, Selene has eliminated the members of the underground organization, and based on current information, it is assumed that she wants to cause a lot of disruption in the venue that day. Judging by the fact that she sent mutants of Deken's level, she wanted to create a ...... School massacre. On the one hand, it exacerbates the antagonistic relationship between humans and mutants; The other side should be trying to ruin your political image...... Or even assassinate you. ”

"Hmm...... You're basically right. Carl Lace stroked the ceramic grip of the coffee cup, "Loreira may have told you that I am the current 'White Queen' of the Hellfire Club, and Emma Frost of the X-Men has passed this title to me, and in the previous civil war at the Hellfire Club, only the 'Night Watch' has ever shown his strength and earned the title of 'White King'...... I'm afraid in the eyes of these people I'm just a non-combatant with harmless abilities. ”

"So...... Are you deliberately trying to attract those guys to your detriment? Su Jing raised her eyebrows, "It's not good news for us who are in charge of safety if the employer has such a bad hobby. ”

"Don't be angry, Mr. Su. I've been following you guys...... You may not be aware of it, but my Shadow Squire is always lurking around you, appearing whenever two fearsome enemies are threatened with their lives, and helping you repel them. Carl Lace smiled.

Hearing this, Su Jing and Xing Batian looked down at the same time, as if they had been summoned by their masters, and the shadows under their feet suddenly began to deform, a shadow, like a wild cat composed of shadows, jumped out of the shadows of the two, walked around on the plane of the two-dimensional floor and wall, and then pounced into the shadow of Carl Lace.

No wonder Selene seemed a little jealous at the time...... The "Black Queen", who is a magician, may also feel the strange power in the shadow, so she is a little restrained...... Su Jing rubbed the floor with his feet, and the friction coefficient of the smooth marble floor was at the most comfortable stage.

"Hmm...... The shadow thinks highly of you. It was very impressed by Mr. Xing's courage and Mr. Su's wit...... To be honest, although I feel sorry, my contract with the two of you may be ending at this moment. Your previous punishment was...... Well, a week of volunteer work, and the two of you have helped me in this week have far exceeded your obligations, so...... Here, I will also pay extra. ”

Two cards emitting a faint white light appeared on the round table, placed in front of Su Jing and Xing Batian.

Xing Batian picked up the card in front of him and shrugged his eyebrows. Then he tapped the card, and a bone-white right-hand fist armor appeared in his hand.

【Three-star props·" Bone "Abnormal Creature Tissue Plug-in]

[From the Marvel C world, the gene is derived from a mutant who has the ability to control his own bones. As long as the wielder is connected to the armor, they can use the "bone control" ability on the armor to transform a variety of weapons and items. Its skeletal traits will be synchronized with the wielder's. 】

Xing Batian put the bone-white fist armor on his hand, and two seconds later, the fist armor began to officially establish a connection with him. Then, as he thought about it, the bony structure on the back of the fist began to lengthen, deform, and multiply rapidly...... Then it turned into a long sword. Xing Batian pinched the texture of this bone sword with his left hand, and then his whole body began to metalize.

As his body turned into steel, the same texture extended to the blade of the bone sword. Xing Batian transported the uranium crystal battle body again, and the steel sword of the bone sword was plated with a layer of pale red light, and the entire sword body gradually became transparent and crystallized. Xing Batian's right hand shook, and a little reddish aura penetrated the sword body, piercing through the floor-to-ceiling glass window on the side of the corridor.

"I wipe ...... So powerful? Su Jing watched Xing Batian satisfied, turning the fist glove back into a card and retracting it into his body, and picked up the card in front of him.

【Knowledge Card, Zerg Organ, Smelting Furnace Heart】

[Users with Zerg abilities, after obtaining this knowledge, can cultivate the "Smelting Furnace Heart" series of organs. Once cultivated, the adventurer can see himself as a factory for smelting materials. Swallowed metal or even other objects can be broken down into various substances in the body, which can then condense into various synthetic materials. 】

Su Jing raised his eyebrows, flicked the card into his brain without hesitation, and used this knowledge card on the spot. After the torrent of knowledge had been absorbed by his brain, he savored it for a moment, then opened his eyes and thanked Carl Lace solemnly.

As an eight-star adventurer, he knows exactly what he needs most now. When he cultivates the "Smelting Furnace Heart" series of organs, it is equivalent to having a complete alloy laboratory in his body, not to mention that this card also comes with "Adamantite Teeth", "Decomposition of Stomach Pouch", "Basic Mold Secretion" specially designed to absorb and decompose various metals, as well as dozens of more commonly used metal formulas. This is undoubtedly a great gift for Su Jing, who has strengthened the strength of the Zerg and researched various metal plug-ins at the same time.

"No thanks, you deserve it. And the information on this card is extremely limited, if you want to smelt stronger materials, you will need not only various metals as raw materials, but also need to find the recipes of various new alloys yourself...... However, there is a quick and easy way to do this, if you can find a special metal and swallow it, you will be able to analyze the composition of it...... But the collection of materials ...... There are no shortcuts to this, and there are some rare properties of alloys that can only be smelted out of special materials...... Come on. Carl Lace jumped out of her chair, straightened her skirt, and waved her hand.

"So...... See you again, young boy. ”

With Carl Lace leaving, Xing Batian also stood up.

"See you again, Su Jing. It's time for my mission. ”

Su Jing stood up and shook his hand.

"In fact, through getting along in the past few days, I think that although you don't look reliable, you are still very reliable." Xing Batian sent a friend application, and after Su Jing accepted it, he looked at Su Jing's logo and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Su Jing, do you like to use a sword?"

Su Jing shook his head blankly, while Xing Batian was silent for a while.

"There's a saying in Crimson Force, that everyone's mark on the character card is meaningful. Most of the time, this mark is related to your ability, but there are some cases where this mark will be a kind of comparison...... The abstract pattern is a summary of the center of the world world, or a prophecy. A lot of powerful people are marked by this type. For example, Major Su, her mark is a long sword wrapped around the vine, almost exactly like you. ”

Su Jing was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Doesn't that mean that I will be strong in the future?" That's a good thing. ”

"In addition to extremely powerful characters, there is another kind of person who also has this more abstract mark." Xing Batian said solemnly, "It's the craziest, most evil, and most paranoid people." Anyone with psychological problems will also have this more conceptual mark. ”

Su Jing subconsciously turned her face to the floor-to-ceiling window glass, and the person reflected on it looked handsome and calm...... and a little evil between the eyebrows.

"I'm so upright, how can I be a psychopath." Su Jing shrugged his shoulders and said.
