Chapter 10: The Séance
Countless large construction vehicles are rushing back and forth in the new territory, and workers are driving various vehicles to start large-scale infrastructure construction under the guidance of senior engineering managers. The employment income of senior engineering managers is twice as high as that of ordinary workers, but without them, the overall work efficiency will be greatly reduced, which is a must.
Several tents had been erected in a corner on the edge of the territory. The tent was full of all kinds of equipment, there were several computers on the platform, and a small near-Earth satellite was released before the transport plane landed, and Shen Yi and Zeus and other commanders were here to command the overall situation through the pictures transmitted back by the satellite.
Satellites usually don't have long lifespans - they are destroyed every time the Zerg strikes.
Unless it is a recyclable satellite, but the price of that thing is too high, Shen Yi and they are now using the production of their home world, the cost is much lower, and it has its own escape ability, of course, it is another thing if you can't escape.
The shuttle flew around in the air and did not land, but three people jumped out of the plane and landed on the ground without even using a parachute.
It was Meryl and Alfonso, and one of them, the Colonel, who offered to participate in the visit when he heard that the Broken Blades were coming.
Alfonso had changed into a crisp general's uniform, which made him look much more presentable, but the flow in his bones had not changed.
He was the first to rush to Shen Yi: "Hey, man, you built the nest next to our base?"
Shen Yi was looking at the map.
He looked up at Alfonso, then at Meryl and the Colonel, who were walking by, and waved at them, before turning to Alfonso and saying, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, I just want you to move further away, your position is hindering our expansion!"
"There's plenty of room for you to expand in other directions. ”
"But I like it here, too, this is the Platinum Mountains, and there are a lot of metal mines!"
"I didn't let you pick it, as long as the radiation range of the energy converter does not exceed the bounds, your convoy can completely pass through my territory...... There is no charge. Shen Yi said with a smile.
"The problem is that I didn't plan on letting you pick it, this is our territory, ours, do you understand?" Alfonso roared.
Shen Yi was shocked.
Shocking indeed.
Not to mention that the Platinum Mountains are rich in minerals, and the limited population of adventurers cannot be used up at all, and there is no such question as who it is, even if it is really as Alfonso said, no one can talk to him in this tone.
He hadn't heard it in a long time.
Not even the likes of Edmund Smack had ever spoken to him in such a tone.
This is not arrogance, but at least self-confidence from strength.
He looked at Meryl in the distance, and he was a little skeptical that Meryl still held a grudge against them, deliberately not telling the idiot who he was.
Meryl just stopped not far away and shook her head, showing that she had no intention of calculating anyone.
The colonel lip-stabbed to show that he was that kind of person.
Shen Yi understood.
There are always some people who are born to speak unlikable, and they may not look down on anyone or want to provoke anyone, but they are virtuous.
So what's really surprising is not that such people exist, but that such people are still alive to this day.
Shen Yi stood up straight: "I know that there are always idiots in the world, which is not surprising, but the strange thing is why do I always encounter idiots?"
Alfonso froze: "What did you say?"
Shen Yi didn't bother to talk to him anymore, and said to the intercom: "Michelle, there is an unwelcome visitor here, he belongs to your scope of entertainment." ”
"Understood, sir, I'll be there. As Michelle answered, a unicorn in the distance swept out a silver light and rushed straight towards this side.
Alfonso looked at Shen Yi in surprise, but Shen Yi had already ignored him, but walked directly to Meryl and the colonel, and said with a smile: "Long time no see......"
"You bastard......" Alfonso, who was completely ignored, was so angry that he rushed over and was about to grab Shen Yi, when a white light had already hit in the distance.
"Get out of here!" Alfonso shouted back a blow, and hit a powerful air current, eliminating the white light and attacking straight into the distance, he was angry in his heart, and he didn't want to kill anyone, but he also wanted to give the other party some good looks, but he didn't expect that this inevitable blow would have no reaction.
Alfonso looked back in amazement, only to see that Michelle had rushed over, and a powerful air flow shot out from the blood war spear, which was rushing towards Alfonso, Alfonso hurriedly released a shield, and at the same time as the blood-colored battle qi hit the shield, the unicorn had rushed over quickly, and slammed into his abdomen, and the sharp horns actually pierced the shield and knocked Alfonso out with a blow.
"Bastard!" Alfonso roared angrily, and an ice spirit knife appeared in his hand, and he jumped at Michelle: "Ice cut, supreme slash!"
The Ice Spirit Long Knife suddenly grew into an ice peak and slashed Michelle vigorously, Meryl's face changed greatly: "Alfonso, you madman!"
She was about to save Michelle, but Shen Yi had already pressed her: "Don't worry, my soldier is not so easy to kill." ”
In terms of strength, Michelle naturally cannot be an opponent of a general.
But in terms of defense, Michelle is not weak, Holy Soul Guardian, Human-Horse Integration Technique, Douqi Guardian, Holy Healing Technique, Cross Medal, almost all of them belong to survival abilities, not to mention that now the attributes are strengthened, and there is an artifact-level shield in his hand.
At this moment, seeing the frost knife rushing hard, a small black shield appeared in Michelle's left hand, and he blocked it in front of him and rebounded.
The ice clamed against the shield, and the force shook Michelle and his unicorn back a few steps, but Alfonso himself screamed and flew out, covered in frost.
"How is this possible?" Alfonso exclaimed, his attack unexpectedly rebounding, and with a single effort, his body shattered with frost.
But at the moment when he was frozen by the frost, Michelle had already driven the unicorn to rush again, and he ran into Alfonso again, knocking him out with a blow.
This Dou Qi impact is extremely ingenious, not seeking to kill but to expel it, so it is to use the force to send, under the control of the Dou Qi, Alfonso flew out dozens of meters at once, and Michelle then collected the spear and snorted coldly: "The chief does not welcome you, please leave." ”
As he spoke, he rode back.
In fact, he knew that he couldn't be Alfonso's opponent, Shen Yi asked him to come, just to give him a dismount by surprise, now that the three-board axe has passed, if he doesn't stop, the next ugly thing is himself.
Sure enough, Alfonso's face turned red by Michelle's face, and his blood and qi soared all over his body, and it seemed that he was not lightly stimulated.
He was about to rush towards Michelle again, but Meryl was already straight: "Alfonso, haven't you made enough trouble?"
Alfonso turned his head and shouted, "I haven't lost yet, I was careless!"
Meryl sneered: "You are already ashamed enough to be beaten by a summoned soldier, what else do you want to prove?
Alfonso was dumbfounded.
However, he couldn't argue, but it didn't mean that he was not convinced, and he wanted to make a move, but the colonel had already rushed over and held him down: "Don't make trouble anymore, Shen Yi is not our enemy." ”
"Not an enemy?" Alfonso said angrily, "How many people did he kill in my Purgatory Sect? Even the sect leader was killed by him......, and he is not an enemy?"
"Bastard!" the Colonel kicked Alfonso out with a slam of his hand.
This guy is quite a bit of a flood wave style, and he offends people as soon as he opens his mouth. Although the colonel is not a member of the sect at the joint base, he is also a guest, but as soon as he opens his mouth, he is "sheltering", which makes the colonel very angry.
And Alfonso's words stunned Shen Yi.
That's right, Shen Yi killed many people in the Purgatory Sect, and even Edmund died at his hands.
But Edmund had committed a great sin of rebellion!
Even the first thing Cliff did after taking the throne was to announce that he would turn his war with Shen Yi into a jade silk, and any purgatory sect believer in his right mind would no longer trouble Shen Yi, and as for Edmund's death, he was not even allowed to mention it.
Revenge for Edmund?
Then you are saying that you support Edmund's overthrow!
If this reaches the ears of the Supreme Council, it is simply looking for death!
Alfonso dared to say that it was the enemy who killed Edmund, and although he didn't say the word revenge, it was still ...... There's enough two/force!
Even Shen Yi didn't know what to say.
He looked at Meryl: "I really don't understand why your Purgatory Sect wants to accept such idiots!"
Meryl shrugged: "People with bad brains usually have more powerful fists. ”
"But I didn't see how strong he was. Shen Yi shook his head. If he still had a reason to be careless about Michelle's sneak attack before, then being kicked away by the colonel at will can only say that he is too weak, which is neither in line with his status as a general, nor his conceited character.
"He's not strong in martial arts...... He is a séance. Meryl replied helplessly.
Shen Yileng paused: "Séance? You say he's a séance?"
Meryl spread her hands: "Otherwise, why do you think a person of his character is alive until now, and why is he so arrogant?"
Shen Yi looked at Alfonso's gaze and immediately became a little more exciting.
A séance is a very special profession like a necromancer and a Gu alchemist, as the name suggests, that is, you can ask the gods to possess you and greatly improve your strength, which is also reflected in some Chinese stories.
In Bloody City, séances have followed this trait, and their way of inviting gods is to use spirits.
The Divine Soul itself can summon the Demon God, but it is a one-time consumption, summoning existence, and the more powerful the existence, the shorter the summoning time.
The demon god summoned by the séance is different, it can be used many times, and it appears directly attached to the body, especially like the transformation of the bloodline, which can be said to be the best profession at playing the role of the divine soul.
And this profession can learn a very useful ability, which is to capture the soul, and it is also the only class in the city that has the skill of capturing the soul.
Before the invention of the Energy Net, except for the existence of the God Catcher Network or Megatron, only the séance could deal with the Divine Soul.
Since most of the professional skills of special occupations have a strong exclusive nature, it is impossible to learn them in the skill column.
However, it is not easy to become a séance, you need to enter a world with a séance system, and you need to be lucky enough to trigger the relevant quest and complete it.
There aren't many worlds of this kind, and the trigger conditions are extremely harsh, so the séances in the Bloody City are all rare breeds, just like the necromancer Gu Alchemist.
Of course, being able to séance does not mean that you are invincible, after all, adventurers don't even know how many true demon gods have been killed.
But there is no doubt that temporary demon god possession can indeed greatly increase the strength of adventurers, and different gods and souls bring different strengths, and they are also very adaptable. Basically, if you have a divine soul, you can summon any demon god to attach to you.
If there are enough spirits in his hand, he can basically cope with all kinds of scenes.
As with other special classes, there is a price to be paid to becoming a séance.
Necromancer inflicts an additional decrease in Constitution, Gullcanist inflicts an additional decrease in Will, and Séance inflicts an additional decrease in Strength, so the regular combat power of these special classes is relatively weak.
However, scarcity is expensive, and regardless of the specific value of a particular profession, its rarity alone can make it very valuable, which may be why Alfonso dares to be so arrogant.
It's just that this time Alfonso kicked the iron plate, and no matter how valuable the séance is, it can't be worth more than the Broken Blade team, or even the scarlet blade in Shen Yi's hand.
Meryl has said again: "Actually, others are not bad, but sometimes they ......"
She pointed to her head, implying that this was a second goods, and Shen Yi nodded in understanding.
I also wondered how such a two-person could get such a profession as a séance?
But the world is unpredictable, maybe the demon god likes to possess the second goods?
I heard that the séance also had a similar transaction with the demon god when he invited the god, and it was much better to find a second-hand trade than to find a shrewd person. Anyway, the demon god doesn't care what the result is, if you give me benefits, I'll help you out, even if you can't beat it, it's not my responsibility.
In addition, in addition to reducing the value of the corresponding attributes, most of the special professions have other costs, such as the necromancer is to lose his human form, and the Gu alchemist is painful and tormented, so is the séance ...... Lower IQ?
No, it's not a decrease in IQ, it's arrogance.
Most of the demon gods are extremely conceited, and the negative effect of the long-term advent is to leave this conceit on the host, so that the descended often become extremely conceited.
If it weren't for that, Alfonso wouldn't have known that the Broken Blades team was not easy to mess with, and he still used that tone to talk to him, let alone mention Edmund.
As Meryl and the Colonel had hinted at, it was not that he despised himself, but that he had come to that point.
Thinking like this, Shen Yi understood a lot.
At this moment, Alfonso was first kicked by Michelle, and then kicked by the colonel, and he was already angry in his heart, his arrogance certainly has the influence of the demon god, and there are also innate factors, if it were not so, the demon god might not be able to look down on him.
At this moment, under the anger, his left hand flipped over, and a divine soul was already in his hand.
It looks like he's going to use the big move to please God.
Unlike bloodline transformations, as séances, they can use this kind of ultimate frequently, which can be said to be a real ultimate class. Almost all of their professional skills are used to assist in inviting gods, some can make him pay less strength when he asks for gods, some can make the demon god stay on him longer, and some can quickly get rid of the weak state after inviting gods and enter the next round of asking gods, etc.
Therefore, the séance's enlargement move can be said to be extremely arbitrary, and the price paid for a single ultimate, may only be a fraction of the soul.
At this moment, Meryl's face changed greatly as she saw Alfonso digging out her soul, and she was about to stop him, but Shen Yi suddenly raised her left hand, and a bottle of potion appeared in her hand.
Alfonso just glanced at the potion, and the whole person was stunned.
He screamed in amazement: "Rejuvenating holy water......? How is this possible?"
Just as Lao Meng had a thirst for rejuvenation holy water, Gu alchemists and séances also had a huge thirst for rejuvenation holy water. The greatest effect of this high-grade alchemy elixir is to relieve weakness and strengthen the will.
Whether it's the necromancer's constitution deprivation, the séance's power trade, or the Gu Alchemist's will resistance, it can all be restored through the Rejuvenation Holy Water.
It can be said that the Holy Water of Rejuvenation is the supreme medicine in the eyes of these special professions.
At this moment, as soon as Shen Yi took out the rejuvenation holy water, Alfonso's whole person trembled, where can God please go on.
Shen Yi's right hand turned over again, and there were already seven or eight divine souls in his hand.
Alfonso couldn't be more calm now.
If the Holy Water of Rejuvenation is a life-saving medicine for a special profession, the Divine Soul is the strongest weapon of the séance.
Shen Yi's left hand holy water and right hand divine soul simply pinched Alfonso's lifeline, this guy quickly took away the divine soul: "What price are you willing to give me holy water and divine soul?"
"It doesn't look like that. Shen Yi smiled and said, "If you want holy water, it's easy, let me see what you have that can make me tempted." ”
In the face of interests, no matter how good the two people are, they will also know how to restrain and give enough benefits, and the demon god can also kowtow to you.
"How about this?" Alfonso had already retracted his soul and pulled out a small pale yellow bead.
Energy Beads.
This is the embodied energy obtained by the energy converter, and it is also the core foundation that supports the existence of the entire city.
This was the first time Shen Yi had seen the true embodied energy, and his heart moved slightly, and he said, "Show me." ”
Alfonso had tossed the beads straight over.
As soon as the beads arrived, Shen Yi's whole person suddenly shook, and a turbulent wave appeared in his heart, and the whole person was already in that familiar and unfamiliar space......
