Chapter 18: Exploiting the Strength of the Shinra - Featured Item Demon Stone

On the first day of the month, I begged for everyone's guaranteed monthly passes, and asked to receive the light of the great gods!

Thanks to the book friend "Dragon King in the Wind" and "God of Chaos" for their tips.

"Go, take this!"

For the special forces who joined the combat department, Tux's lonely boat remnant moon team, the reckless team, and the dark department, it is necessary to participate in the battle to defend the Demon Furnace, because this is their job responsibility, and the Weapons Development Department, Space Development Department, and Urban Development Department's Skywalker Team, Flying Snow Team, and Killing Team are optional, and participating in the war is considered to be loyal to the HRE Company, and there is no punishment if you don't participate in the war.

Of course, this does not mean that the civilian department is more popular than the combat department, the aspect that the reincarnation is best at is definitely the battle, and the tasks and rewards issued by the combat department are much better than those of the civilian department, so they know that they need to participate in the battle, but Li Feng's five-person team still joined Tux and is also among the battles!

Gao Xu heard the noise in the passage, learned that the first confrontation broke out so quickly, narrowed his eyes, walked into another office, and stared at the HRE staff inside......

Helpless to whom? Disappointing with whom?

Who else could there be?

HRE Corporation!!

The HRE company, which was supposed to be at the pinnacle of the continent and held the power!!

Don't look at how unbearable the high-level leaders of the Shinra were said before, it is actually the complaint of the reincarnation who knows the whole plot and has the prescient prescience, if you look at the plot background alone, the HRE company is a super awesome existence.

It is not a simple corporation, but the de facto government of the entire continent of Gaia. Since the discovery of the magic bladder energy and its use in the construction of people's daily lives. The HRE Corporation has grown from a small weapons workshop to the largest corporation. Become a unique energy monopoly, after the surrender of the old rival Wutai, it has mastered the hegemony of the whole shijie, not to mention anything else, just use the mayor of Midgar as an example, the mayor of a city was arranged by Shinra Yiyan to become the librarian of the sixty-second floor, what kind of monstrous right is this?

In villages all over Shijie, Shinra is a life-changing savior. The special forces of the Shinra are the target that the children will become when they grow up, and they are extremely longing for them, and Zax and Claude both left the village with the dream of becoming heroes and traveled thousands of miles to Midgar......

So the reincarnation knows that the HRE will eventually finish playing, and it's always right to follow the protagonist of the plot who has the luck of the protagonist, but the plot characters who don't know the future shouldn't think so, the members are pitiful, and the leader was easily assassinated by Tux Avalanche (not Barrett, but its previous leader) until the two magic furnaces of the Shinra were detonated, and they changed from dispensable reptiles to pests that needed to be pinched to death immediately!

"Europe and the United States have definitely done something. Avalanche's strength has been strengthened, and the influence of the HRE has been weakened. The staff inside HRE reacted so violently when they heard the name of the avalanche, and this attitude was no longer against reptiles or pests, but on an equal footing! ”

Gao Xu's eyes flashed, and he subconsciously wanted to find a staff member and use the Demon Snatch to read the memory and understand the cause and effect as quickly as possible, but he moved his fingers, turned his head and looked at the surveillance camera hanging high on the ceiling imperceptibly, and gave up his plan.

He doesn't want to be the next research object by the group of paranoid scientists in the Department of Biological Research who are almost crazy because of his casual moments, and the HRE company can't help the avalanche with the luck of the protagonist.

The restriction that the Phantom Fruit will be invalid in battle makes Gao Xu have no intention of fighting for the time being, and the Tianxing and Flying Snow teams have chosen two departments with civilian management as the mainstay, which is the reason, and although the Zeural Light team does not need to disguise, the overall strength is not enough, and it is prone to danger, so this first battle will be handed over to the dark department.

The dark department is not suitable for frontal combat, but fortunately, they have no difficulty in retreating with strange abilities, and generally the first battle is mainly based on testing and finding out, and it will not be too intense, Gao Xu handed over the Divine Mirror View scroll printed by Miao Jing to Yi Wangshu, and asked her to record the enemy's situation, and it is convenient for her own analysis when she comes back.

North America launched an offensive so quickly, which made Gao Xu feel the urgency of time, even if he didn't know Phiria's behavior like the people of the Lonely Boat Wanyue Team, but as long as he could reach the peak level of three difficulties, the first striker was the first to control the people, and the late one was to control the people, and the reason was always understood, if there were conditions, anyone would choose to kill the enemy quickly and avoid future troubles!

At present, the supplementary special mission has not yet been opened, and the situation of the HRE needs to be in crisis to a certain extent, or after ten days, the two sides are still not clearly distinguished, and the plot shili will issue a request for additional troops, and then the variables will be irrepressible, so the best time for Europe and the United States to attack is within ten days, and even the sooner the better, because even if the additional force request is released, the reincarnation outside will see that East Asia in the regional battlefield is in a precarious situation so quickly, who dares to come in and send them to death?

The reincarnators don't believe in turning the tide, they only believe in Mingzhe to protect themselves, if the situation really reaches an extremely bad point, let alone others, even Gao Xu will not let Qin Fen and Zhang Yao's team follow up and drag them into the water!

"There are murderers as internal traitors, and arranging them to cooperate with the outside in departments like special forces and Tuckers, it will definitely be more helpful for team battles, and the only thing that the Space Development Department thinks about is Sid? Highvent, so does it mean that in the eyes of Europe and the United States, Sid's role alone is higher than that of team battles, airships? Rocket? It's unreasonable......"

After the dark department left, Gao Xu set his eyes in the direction of the Universe Development Department, showed a thoughtful look, and silently engraved Sid's name in his heart, but at this time, Tuoba Yuer's voice sounded in the team channel, Gao Xu listened to a few words, his eyes were filled with joy, and he returned to the office of the Urban Development Department.

Tuoba Yu'er, Diao Chan, and Su Mei came and went, helping to carry the materials, while Lin Yueru, Lian Xing, and Su Ying were checking the sketches on their desks, and another Zeguang team was also doing similar things, with a clear goal, to tap the power of the Shenluo - the special item of this Shijie, the Demon Stone!

The Magic Stone is a crystalline body formed after the highly concentrated Spring of Life, and the naturally occurring Magic Stone is extremely rare, and it is usually obtained by artificial refining. The means of refining are not difficult. But the height of Jishu affects the quality of the Demon Stone. Attaching the Demon Stone to your equipment can unleash the wearer's own potential, allowing you to gain a variety of extraordinary abilities!

To put it simply, the Magic Stone is similar to the crystallization circuit of the Void Trail Shijie, through which the corresponding magic, commands, and special summons can be used, but unlike the crystallization circuit installed on the special equipment guide, as long as the ordinary equipment you are wearing has the Magic Stone inlay hole, you can embed the Demon Stone for strengthening. And can be removed at any time!

Of course, both are not without their own challenges.

If Gao Xu hadn't entered the body devouring snake with extremely developed conductive technology, according to the normal number of paths, he would definitely not be able to get the conductor in just one month, and in the same way, he had to equip the crystallization circuit with the right one, which was a long road to strengthen.

Final Fantasy Seven Shijie's Magic Stone is not an unusual, but the restrictions have shifted to the equipment, and the Magic Stone is not innate. The first is to pass the quality of the equipment, and the second must be punched by professional reinforcement personnel. Otherwise, there is only a magic stone with dry eyes, and it is useless.

The moment Gao Xu expected that East Asia would be in the HRE camp, he began to fight the idea of the Demon Stone, in terms of cost performance alone, the Magic Stone is more on top of the guiding magic, because in the setting of space, the Magic Stone has the ability to push to the limit.

For example, in the battle of the Evil Sword Immortal in her previous life, the Flying Snow team member was the ultimate urging time demon stone, slowing down the passage of time for her companions, helping her find the evil spirit core of the evil sword fairy, and destroying the first form of the evil sword fairy with a single blow of the S combat skill Holy Star Vortex!

This kind of usually as a conventional means to assist the battle, the critical moment can become the characteristics of the hole card killing move makes the magic stone quickly favored by the reincarnation, especially the ability to get the best magic stone of the three difficulty reincarnation, the three difficulty of the trading market can often see the hole of the equipment and the magic stone for sale, the price is definitely higher than the two sold separately!

So where is the most mature method of refining the Demon Stone, and the skill of equipment punching is the highest??

There is no doubt about it - the HRE company, which made its fortune with Moxuan Energy!!

Gao Xu has always been good at finding factors that are beneficial to himself in an unfavorable environment, the opposition between HRE and Avalanche, the prospect is indeed worrying, but this does not mean that there are no interests to be made on the HRE company, he is responsible for mental work, inferring and guessing the actions of the dark and killing the dead, breaking the opponent's game, and setting up his own killing game, and the rest of the people don't care so much, just strengthen themselves wholeheartedly and improve their strength!

The division of labor on Gao Xu's side is very clear, the Flying Snow Team of the Weapons Development Department is responsible for letting Miao Jing learn the punching skills of the first-level master of the Shinra Dynasty, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, how can there be reincarnation convenience for the plot characters, there is a deputy master, if you don't know how to use it well, you are a fool!

The two teams of Tianxing and Zhouguang are responsible for getting the most magic stones at the lowest cost, and the Urban Development Department manages the magic furnaces in various places, and the magic stones are a by-product of the magic furnaces, including them, except for the giant magic stones that contain huge energy, the ordinary level of the magic stones are not concerned by the high-level of the HRE, which creates a big opportunity for the reincarnation!

"It can be seen from the information that the more remote the place, the more chaotic the records of the Demon Stone, the accounts are very unclear, and even large areas are blank, presumably the sources of the black markets in various places are leaked out of the cracks of the Shinra fingers, but Midgar is not as easy as imagined, our current supervisor Liv is a person with a strong sense of responsibility, and it is almost impossible to deceive him!"

Soon, Su Ying gave a conclusion on the current information, Gao Xu nodded slightly, Midgar is equivalent to the Kyoto of the HRE Company, no matter which country it is, how chaotic it is in remote areas, but at the feet of the Son of Heaven, no matter how presumptuous people are, they will weigh some ......

This is also the restriction of space on the means of reincarnation, so that the reincarnation becomes a member of the HRE company, it is a battle, not a chance to play a game of corruption, so the main battlefield Midgar is very restrictive, if the reincarnation voluntarily runs to other places for the sake of the Demon Stone, the cart is turned upside down, Zuihou loses the regional battlefield, not to mention, he can't even save his life, then it's completely self-inflicted, and the space won't care~~

"The way of direct corruption is blocked, it doesn't mean that there is no other way!" It's a pity that the road is one foot tall and the magic is one foot high, Su Ying's eyes rolled, and she laughed evilly. "You can't be corrupt. But you can blackmail. We are the HRE Corporation, alas, which of the many land snakes and underworld in Midgar cannot rely on us to survive? ”

"The little girl is a thief!" As soon as these words came out, Yin Zichen, Xia Yu and others all smiled darkly, and Gao Xu even patted Su Ying's little head, well, after camouflage, it did become a small head, "But I like this." Since we are on the side of the villain Shili, we have to act like a villain, go, black eats black!! ”

"The first target, let's start with Claude's kiss partner, Gurugeno!!"

******

Midgar's shijie splits in two.

The first was the upper-class city, built on a steel plate held up high above the ground, and was home to more than five-figure Shinra staff, well-to-do people, and wealthy and powerful upper-class magnates.

On the other hand, on the ground where there is no sunlight all day long, there is chaos and poverty. But it is strangely full of life in the lower class of the poor kiln.

Of course, not everyone feels alive.

Most of the slum dwellers thought it would be an eternal rule: prosperity reigned high. The shadow of poverty looms beneath you!

But there are exceptions to everything, and Gurugen felt that he was that exception, because although he lived in the lower slums, he lived a very happy life.

Not to mention that he owns the largest casino in the slums, the Bee Nightclub, with a lot of money and a thriving business, not to mention that his actual influence and power in the slums are stronger than the real mayor of Midgar, not to mention that the thugs and pets he recruits have absolute deterrent power, so that he can sit firmly in the number one position in the slums, let's just say that every night his subordinates will bring three beautiful girls to choose, regardless of whether the other party is willing or not, it is more interesting if he is unwilling, isn't it?

This is the life of the gods!

Rather be the head of the chicken than the tail of the phoenix, it is the belief of the ancient root tail, but on this day that seems to him to be very ordinary, he has to taste the taste of the head of the chicken being bullied by the phoenix tail......

Yes! Yes!!! Yes!!!!!

When the continuous screams came, the Zeurguang team swept away his hooligan men like tigers down the mountain, and forced into the mansion, the fat pig's paws at the end of Gu Liugen stiffened in the maid's underwear, and the meat shield Zhou Chen had already kicked open the door with a puff and broke in.

Except for a summoned beast at the peak of the second difficulty, Gu Liugenwei did not have any capital that could resist the Zeural Light Team, Gao Xu and the others were not worried, far away, on the surface, they were arrogant and arrogant, but in fact, they avoided being dragged into a combat state.

"Who are you?" When Gu Liugen's round body was dragged out by force, looking at everyone and asking questions in horror, Gao Xu came out of the crowd, put on a very unbeaten face, and introduced loudly, "Even we don't recognize it?" It's time for you to go underground and be with the vipers, listen up, we're the City Management Team under the HRE Urban Development Department, referred to as Chengguan! ”

"City ...... Tube......? Gu Liugenwei was shocked by the two words of this domineering side leakage and endless fierce and vicious aura, trembling for a long time, squeaky and said, "I don't know if the small one is doing something wrong, let the city management adults come here, and the small one must be corrected as soon as possible!" ”

"It's like a human saying!" Gao Xu smacked his lips, looked left and right at the mansion in Guliugenwei, in the slums, it was indeed the highest-grade mansion, and snorted, "When our city management was established, you didn't seem to come to pay tribute?" ”

"The little one understands, the little one understands, can you all come upstairs with the little one, and the haode baby can stay there!" Gurugen wiped a handful of cold sweat from his head, staggered to his feet, and made a gesture to lead the way.

If it is a person who does not understand Gu Liugenwei's character, he will definitely be deceived by the illusion of his nest and think that he will give in, but even if Gao Xu and his party can't see the infinite evil revealed in Gu Liugenwei's lowered eyelids, they also know what kind of person this person is!

Gu Liugen is a very fierce character in his bones, he has always been used to being powerful in the slums, no one dares to provoke, in the early stage of the plot, he was fascinated by Claude's "beauty", lost his family business, and later retaliated against the protagonist and his party in Wutai, and even Elena, Tux, was arrested and ready to insult, without the slightest scruples!

Since it can be seen that it is almost impossible to scare Gu Liugen Tail by force alone, the path of corruption is blocked by space, and blackmail is not without consequences, Gu Liugen Tail has a backstage in the high-level of the Shinra, and pays tribute regularly every month, and unruly behavior will definitely spread to the ears of the background, whether it can bear or exempt some of the costs, it depends on the means of the reincarnation!

Of course, that's a matter for the future, and at present, we have to deal with Gu Liugenwei's counterattack, without Gao Xu glancing at Su Ying, Xiao Lori followed behind Gu Liugenwei, looking at the decorations around the mansion, and the corners of her lips raised a disdainful arc.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please! Please! "When I came to Gu Liugenwei's room, I could see from the door at a glance that a large bed that was four or five times the usual one inside occupied most of the sight, needless to say, it was used by Gu Liugenwei's lewdness/fun, and this obscene bastard was pointing to the screen behind the bed, "The little one has collected some precious treasures, and he is in the house on weekdays, and he is reluctant to take them out to meet guests, even Lord Heidingale has never seen it!" ”

Yes, the head of the security maintenance department, the stupid fat man Heidinger, a member of the HRE board of directors, is the backstage of Gu Liugenwei, and he seems to have mentioned it inadvertently at this time, in order to let this group of chengguan who have never heard of it before know what is good, but Gao Xu and his party turned a deaf ear, and just looked at the screen with greedy eyes, without blinking.

Gu Liugen gritted his teeth when he saw it, and finally put aside the plan to calm the people, and prepared to launch the lore mechanism, he knew that he had done a lot of bad things, for fear of retaliation, so he laid a lot of vicious traps around the big bed, but it was not only the one that made the three of Claude fall into the sewer in the original plot!

Who knew that his hand hadn't touched the trap opening device yet, Xiao Su Ying raised the bow and crossbow, whoosh, whoosh, swished three times, and the three arrows were shot at different parts, Gu Liugen was inexplicable at first, and didn't understand what she was shooting at the wall, and when he secretly pressed left and right, the mechanism that had been tried and tested did not respond, and he was completely dumbfounded when he met Su Ying's smiling gaze.

"Dare to play tricks, let him see the power of our city management! Ahh!!h Yin Zichen snorted, jumped into the air, bent his leg bones, and fell fiercely towards Gu Liugen's lower abdomen, Xia Yu picked up the chair next to him, and smashed his fat face with his head and face, Zhou Chen, Chen Sheng, and Quan Hulu rushed over and punched and kicked, and the civilized people Tianxing and his party went around behind the screen and began to scrape.

Gu Liugenwei didn't lie a little, the treasure he collected was indeed placed here, and he didn't feel at ease when he was placed somewhere else, and after a while, Gao Xu played with a stealing magic stone and smiled.

Rune Treasure? The help given to him by the Qiankun bag is self-evident, but unfortunately it is not a real magic weapon after all, not only can it not be warmed and grown, but there are strict restrictions on use, and it is almost used up now, and the thief Demon Stone can usually steal some gadgets, and at the critical moment, it can be urged to the limit to increase the success rate of theft, which is definitely a good helper!

On the other side, Gu Liugenwei's miserable howl like killing a pig resounded in all directions, even if Yin Zichen and they all had some strength, otherwise with the strength of the reincarnation, they would have been beaten to death a long time ago, where could Gu Liugenwei, who rarely endure hardship, withstand this kind of group beating, and howled regardless of it:

"You ...... How can you be as cruel as the seventh heaven...... Help me...... Help! (To be continued.) )
