Chapter 14 [The Second Alienation Heart of the Spell Gambler]
The girl with the mechanical arm knew that Ji Xun had the [Witch's Gaze] in her hand, but she actually vaguely guessed the way to kill the monster.
What if it's useless against monsters?
Just like that, you dare to gamble with your life?
Ji Xun knew the stunned of his teammates, but he also pointed to the monster's corpse and reminded: "I think this monster is out of material." β
The mechanical arm girl looked at his expression as if he had just finished gambling his life, and the corners of her eyes twitched slightly.
But he also drew his dagger and sliced open the monster's chest, pulling out a heart full of green crystals.
γSpell Gambler's Secondary Alienation Heartγ
Quality: Excellence Yaoyin
Detailed explanation: A rare mystical material, containing a super rich power of cursed pollution, it carries the ultimate physical explosive power and speed;
With her heart in her hand, the girl clearly felt the majestic energy surging in her heart, and she also felt incredible.
She had never seen a first-order material with such intensity.
This is no worse than the [Witch Pituitary Gland] before her, and said: "This is the best material for almost universal meat-based career cards." If you're looking to advance into a melee class sequence, I haven't seen any better tier material like this. β
As she spoke, she glanced at Ji Xun and said, "I'll help you contain it." β
Containing this high-grade material requires a high-quality containment card, and apparently his teammate can't buy one even if he sells all his equipment.
"Thank you."
Ji Xun is also not polite.
This material is valuable without looking at it, and whether it is useful to keep it or not, you can also add some money to yourself when you first come to this world.
And her teammate is also interesting enough, she didn't participate in killing monsters, so she didn't say that she wanted to share the spoils.
......
There are more and more questions in my mind.
The girl contained her heart, handed the card to Ji Xun, and couldn't help but ask directly: "How are you sure that [Witch's Gaze] can kill this monster?" β
Although her tone was flat, her inner curiosity was already bursting.
It's a miracle that a guy who isn't even a transcendent can kill an A-class calamity.
At this moment, she also fully understood what Ji Xun was talking about "gambling" before.
Judging from the results, the confidence of his teammates is not just a bet on luck.
Listening to the inquiry, such a matching teammate, Ji Xun didn't hide the meaning of tucking in: "Change your mind." β
He said directly: "If you think from the perspective of an adventurer, you must be thinking about how to solve this level." But if you're standing in the designer's level, you're thinking about how to design the level. It needs to be subtle and challenging enough not to completely overwhelm the player. This is the only way I can think of to kill monsters at the moment. β
"You can understand that the witch is the guardian of the second level, and it guards the relevant clues. In order not to let this clue be chicken, then its existence must be the key to subsequent decryption. That skill card is the key to linking the subsequent levels. β
β...β
When the mechanical arm girl heard this, she frowned thoughtfully.
Behind the calm tone of his teammate, he reveals the ultimate calmness, wisdom, and meticulous logical thinking ability.
And, crazy!
Ji Xun continued: "From the time I found out that there was a problem with the wall, I guessed that this extradimensional space has a very clever and logical level design. The bunker has four floors, and each floor has a B-class calamity that is significantly stronger than the other monsters. With such difficulty, the setting of the boss should definitely not be irrelevant..."
The girl was also very smart, and seemed to guess what he was going to say at once, but also interrupted: "What if, I mean, what if it just has nothing to do with it?" β
Ji Xun smiled mysteriously, as if there was something in his words, "There are no related levels, and those exquisite designs are meaningless." β
As he spoke, he added, "Moreover, if it is unrelated, then this intensity, do you think anyone can survive under the mutated A Calamity?" If I'm not mistaken, the normal customs clearance procedure is that someone kills the A-class [Corrupt Giant] on the first floor, and then gets some kind of key item to kill the [Fallen Witch] on the second floor, and then the [Spell Gambler] on the third floor... The level is like an iron door that requires a corresponding key to open. And on these calamities, there is a key to clearing the level. β
"But we didn't..."
The girl wanted to say that they didn't go to the first floor, but stopped halfway through the conversation.
Ji Xun helped her explain the reason: "Because you are too strong." β
This teammate of his own is so strong that he directly killed the calamity on the second floor, and then he jumped the level.
From this point of view, the strength of his teammate is indeed abnormal.
Even when she was selected by the gambling dog before, with that kind of calmness, Ji Xun could almost conclude that she had other means to escape.
β...β
Hearing this, which seemed to be a boast of herself, the girl did not feel joy, but fell into deep thought.
Obviously she didn't communicate much, but she felt as if her secret had been seen through by this man.
With this explanation, the idea is clear at once.
But there's one more point.
"What if you guessed wrong?" she asked. β
β...β
Ji Xun pondered for a moment and did not speak.
Originally, the girl thought that this guy was hiding something and didn't say anything, but after being silent for a while, she heard a faint answer.
"That's why there's an element of gambling."
Ji Xun's eyebrows moved slightly, and he quickly smiled indifferently.
It is true that everything was speculation before, and it must be risky to verify.
But in his eyes, there are things that are much more interesting than death.
.......
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Gunfire rang out from time to time in the dark lab, and the group of Blackwater mercenaries who had escaped before were unexpectedly in trouble.
Packing up the loot on the corpse of the calamity, Ji Xun beckoned: "Let's go, let's go to the front and have a look." β
This level is right, the following level is already like an open-book answer to him.
Although he didn't know what to face, Ji Xun already had confidence.
The mechanical arm girl didn't speak, but she acquiesced.
To this day, she still doesn't understand that her teammate is definitely not as weak as she seems, and that's her own problem.
But the old question arises again, how could such a shrewd guy dare to come to this extradimensional space alone in a reckless manner?
Spent the night with the witch?
Could it be... Are you looking for some special thrill?
Normal people don't try with their lives.
But this guy is so crazy, maybe it's really...
What's more, he slept with [Witch] for one night, and he really survived!
The girl didn't know what came to mind, and quickly waved away the strange thoughts in her mind.
But I have to admit that this guy does have something extraordinary.
......
The two of them walked all the way through the passage of the laboratory, looking for various places in the laboratory from time to time, looking for clues, and at the same time, they could also collect some trophies from the corpses of mercenaries on the road.
The two of them walked as they looked for small things.
It's as if the "Battle Royale mode" has turned into a "casual exploration mode".
The girl with the mechanical arm also felt very strange, I don't know when it started, and the feeling of the cloud of death hanging over her head all the time faded away.
After thinking about it carefully, it seems that after killing the [Gambling Dog], this feeling came.
It seems that he will be infected calmly, and this guy next to him has never seen him flustered.
Every time you encounter a crisis, you can save the day, that feeling...
However, his mind was drifting, and suddenly he heard hurried footsteps and anxious curses in the distance.
"Captain, Ah Kun's foot has been cut off..."
"Fuck, did you see where the monster was? Kill it for Lao Tzu! β
"No, no monsters in sight. It should be the unknown calamity on the fourth floor! β
"Help, Captain, don't leave me !!"
β...β
The laboratory is an enclosed corridor, and the sound travels far away.
Before anyone saw it, they heard a ghost crying wolf.
Ji Xun listened to those familiar voices, who was the group of mercenaries before?
And the mechanical arm girl next to her also discovered something, and said with a solemn expression: "There is a very powerful calamity aura nearby... Stronger than the previous [Spell Gambler]! β
Ji Xun naturally didn't dare to be careless.
But if someone wades through the mines, they are also relieved of a lot of trouble.
Thinking of something, he suddenly drew his pistol and pulled the trigger on the gas lamp near his head.
With a "bang", the lights went out.
A corner of the hallway was plunged into darkness.
Ji Xun looked at his teammates who had entered the battle state, shook his head, pulled her to stand in the dark, and said, "Let's take a look at the situation first." β
The girl with the mechanical arm glanced at him, as if she had a question: Don't run?
In her opinion, someone attracts monster hatred, isn't this the best time to escape?
Ji Xun didn't open his mouth to explain.
The girl hesitated for a moment, but chose to believe him, so she didn't ask more.
The figures of the two quietly retreated into the darkness.
.......
After a few breaths, the sound got closer.
The two of them looked at a bald man and four mercenaries as if they were being chased by some monster, and ran back in a panic.
There were a dozen people before, and now there are only four left.
And running and running, a strange scene appeared.
Without warning, the mercenary's head that fell at the end suddenly flew up, blood was like a fountain, and the whole person fell to the ground with a bang.
The neck is cut smoothly and wounded by a sharp blade.
Ji Xun watched intently, his eyes glazed over.
