Cataclysm King

  Chapter 151 Titan Mechanical Research Institute

   Have a good night's sleep.

  Since learning the breathing method, Ji Xun has not had such a long and comfortable sleep for a long time.

  The ultimate experience brought by the Yinyue joy secret technique makes people not feel tired afterwards, but instead has an indescribable sense of relaxation both physically and mentally.

  And this feeling can also make people addicted.

  Ji Xun didn't have the habit of sleeping late, his biological clock opened his eyes early in the morning.

   Looked at the time on the wall, it was seven o'clock.

  Ji Xun sat up, looked at the naked Miss Qiqi lying beside him, and the corners of his mouth curled up inexplicably.

  The body is graceful and well-proportioned, the skin is delicate, because lying on the bed, the majestic chest was squeezed and deformed.

  It's very interesting no matter what.

   Seemingly aware of that gaze, Dong Qi moved his eyelashes slightly, but didn't intend to open them.

  Ji Xun admired it and stroked her smooth skin.

   Then he got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.

  Dong Qi originally wanted to sleep more.

   Thinking about it all night, you should be very tired.

  But I don’t know why I just woke up, but I feel very energetic.

  Hearing that Ji Xun got out of bed, she didn't feel sleepy after lying down for a while, so she got out of bed too.

   already familiar, Dong Qi didn't intend to put on clothes, so he walked to the bathroom with his buttocks naked.

  Ji Xun was brushing his teeth. Seeing Dong Qi walk in, he also moved away a little bit, and said vaguely, "Sleep a little longer?"

  The free hand patted the upturned buttocks.

   There was a sound of "啪~", and there were slight waves.

  Dong Qi looked at himself in the mirror with sleepy eyes, picked up his toothbrush, and muttered, "I can't sleep anymore."

  The glass was filled with water, she took a sip, and after vomiting, she asked again: "You still woke up so early? I thought you were tired and needed to sleep a little longer."

  Miss Kiki is not shy.

  Ji Xun heard the obviously joking tone, turned sideways, and stood behind her, with one arm around the waist with a clear vest line.

  Although Dong Qi is half a head shorter than Ji Xun, the proportion of his legs is very exaggerated.

  The two stood together, and the hip bones were not much different.

  Because Dong Qi's figure is exquisite, her hips are raised, and she is not wearing any clothes, this posture is a bit ambiguous.

   Touching each other warmly, I suddenly became excited.

  Dong Qi glanced at Ji Xun behind him from the vanity mirror, with the corners of his brows curved, and said: "It's not easy for me to wash up like this."

   Immediately perceived something, she raised her eyebrows and looked again, the expression in her crystal eyes also teased a little, and asked: "Why, you are so energetic so early in the morning?"

   As he spoke, he twisted his delicate body provocatively.

  After the joy last night, this kind of intimate and ambiguous action was also unlocked, without any tweaking at all.

  Ji Xun smiled and enjoyed the joy brought by this kind of intimacy.

   After finishing the toothbrush, Gulu Gulu spit out a mouthful of water.

  Because Dong Qi was still in front of her, some bubbles flowed on her collarbone, and then flowed down.

   Ji Xun stretched out a hand and clung to it, wiping off the foam.

   Instead of wiping it off, it got all over my body.

  Dong Qi glanced at the hand that was still rubbing foam at the beginning, but then wandered around, and complained quietly: "Ah, this guy got it all over the place."

  The tone was a little helpless, but there was a faint smile on her pretty face.

   I didn’t feel bad early in the morning either.

  Dong Qi's body was slightly tilted back, and he tilted his head and covered Ji Xun's face with his mouth full of bubbles.

  Looking at the painted face in the mirror, he immediately laughed.

  In the bathroom, it will soon be full of beautiful spring scenery again.

   After breakfast, Ji Xun and Dong Qi changed into hunter costumes and came to the west gate of the crowded Lion City.

  The Lionheart family spent a lot of financial and material resources in this new city.

  Now almost every day, more than twenty trains come from the Nugget Wharf of Innocence City, bringing in a large amount of materials and personnel, and the construction of the city has new changes almost every day.

   Various functional buildings have also been prepared long ago.

   For example, the hunter union.

  The Hunter Union has a branch in Xichengmen.

  There are densely packed hunters who are ready to venture out of the city.

  The new city discovered by the Lionheart family is very rich in resources, with countless different-dimensional spaces and various mining resources waiting to be developed.

  So this has attracted a large number of speculators and hunters to come to risk gold.

   There are also well-equipped official hunter groups and various mercenaries brought by nobles from other main cities.

   The efficiency of land reclamation is very high.

  Ji Xun and Dong Qi came to the Hunter Union, where the crowd was crowded and noisy.

  The bulletin board at the door displays various recruitment information.

  「‘Senjin Sentinel’ Beast Hunter Group recruits pioneer hunters, explore A-level difficulty, settling fee 30W」

   "The 'Dark Garden Den' opened up wasteland, produced high-quality demon marks, finished skill cards, and decrypted masters"

  「‘1981 Titan Machinery Research Institute’ draws mechanical blueprints, not limited to occupations, to violent output.」

  「.”

  Even though Ji Xun had carefully reviewed almost all the information he could get before coming here, he came here today and saw a lot of new information about different dimensions.

   casually glanced a few times.

  Ji Xun also discovered that the closer to the depths of the old continent, the more difficult different-dimensional spaces, and the more precious the materials produced.

   After casually listening to the hunters chatting a few words, I found that in some difficult different-dimensional spaces recently, all kinds of gold and silver cards and materials have been produced.

  Although the death rate is high, hunters are also flocking to it.

  But Ji Xun's goal has been set.

  He just glanced casually.

   Not long after, he got the latest detailed information about "1981 Titan Mechanical Research Institute" from the intelligence merchant.

  The two of them sat in a tavern near the trade union and found a seat by the window.

  Ji Xun carefully read the information of that different-dimensional space.

  Dong Qi was sitting opposite, flipping through the information he had read.

  She grew up in gangs since she was a child, and she has never really explored different dimensions.

  Although she is no stranger to the hunter profession, she was a little cautious when preparing for the first time as a hunter.

   After all, the guaranteed death rate in a different-dimensional space is no joke.

   And more importantly.

  She was afraid that she would be too weak and become a burden to the person in front of her.

   When doing business, Ji Xun always looks serious, efficient and focused.

He quickly finished looking through the information, and said to Dong Qi: "The alien space restricts entry ranks. Although there are many monsters, if there is no hidden plot, the strongest monsters should be the second-order A-level, C, and D-level monsters. The difficulty of the plot seems to be very easy at present. And there is no restriction on mechanical weapons, our firepower is sufficient, and there is almost no risk. So I may choose to explore B-level or higher at that time."

"Um."

  Dong Qi nodded while listening.

  The analysis of the space in these words has been very thorough, and she couldn't get in.

  At this moment, Ji Xun looked at Dong Qi and said, "There is one more important point."

  He actually knew very well that Dong Qi's combat power was definitely not low.

  The combat power of the main body is indeed not strong, but the combat power of the mechanic lies in the machinery.

  Her set of armor forged by Gunnir Orgin, among other things, has a stronger life-saving ability than ordinary third-tier card masters.

   In this kind of different-dimensional space, it is actually enough.

   But Ji Xun is very clear that in the different-dimensional space, the most dangerous thing is never monsters, but people!

After talking about the tactical layout of the different-dimensional space, he said again: "Be careful when the time comes. At present, this space has revealed a few very practical black-tech mechanical drawings. Those from the Lionheart family are willing to release it, there is a high probability that there is a hidden danger , I have the idea of ​​letting outsiders go to mine. Moreover, they may have some information that others do not know, and there may be changes at that time."

  This is not conjecture.

   But the high probability is a fact.

  When Ji Xun first traveled through space, in that 407 space, he didn’t quite understand why Cao Yu was able to go directly to the final level of the different-dimensional space.

  It was only later that I gradually realized that those top nobles had some information about the Old Continent that was unknown to outsiders.

  So when the Cao family brought out those newly discovered mechanical black technologies, Ji Xun specifically asked Xie Guozhong. Then I learned that the batch of information about the Old Continent in the hands of the Cao family came from the Oran Dynasty that collapsed two hundred years ago.

   And the Lionheart family will choose a site to build a new city here, obviously it is not a random choice.

   Instead, he has some directional and accurate information.

   Rethinking that Chujiu's mother was imprisoned in Rose Manor.

  In fact, it can be speculated that the Lionheart family and the survivors of Oran have secretly colluded.

  So the intelligence in hand is almost a certainty.

   Based on the current information about the "1981 Titan Machinery Research Institute", Ji Xun saw a lot of shadows of the Lionheart family behind the scenes.

   But that's one of the reasons he chose.

  There is no room for difficulty, so he can't arouse much interest.

  Dong Qi listened, thought seriously, and nodded: "Yes."

  The two were discussing in the tavern.

  However, it is a coincidence.

   At this moment, a group of people suddenly walked past the window.

"Huh"

  Dong Qi glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and let out a slight hey, his expression immediately became uneasy.

  Because the group of people walking outside was none other than the fifth young master of the Lionheart family, Kake.

  Dong Qi was captured last time because of the guy, it's strange to have a good face.

   Ji Xun also followed his gaze and looked over.

   This Young Master Kake had an arm broken by Qin Rushi in Hong Lou before, and now it looks like it has been connected, and he is leading a group of guards to patrol the city.

   This Lion City originally belonged to the Lionheart family, so it's not surprising to see this one.

  Ji Xun cared about something else.

   Among the group of guards, he also found Artest, the master of the brotherhood, "Boxer".

   But Ji Xun's eyes were not focused on Artest, but on the sword-like object wrapped in bandages on the guy's back.

  He guessed it was a weapon.

  But usually combat weapons such as relics are stored in cards for easy access and warming.

   Carried like this, or it is not worth wasting a containment card cheap, such as most of the mechanical equipment.

   Either it is uncontainable.

  Like a catastrophe!

  Ji Xun knew that Artest had advanced to the third level, so he preferred the latter.

Just as this thought flashed by, Dong Qi on the side also saw his gaze, and said coldly: "The big sword behind that guy Artest is the cataclysmic object that was snatched from the warehouse of Great Ivan—【X-199- Useless Great Sword]."

   Is it really a catastrophe?

  When Ji Xun heard this, he suddenly remembered the time when the keel was auctioned. The Great Ivan Store was going to auction a cataclysmic item.

   Later, because Master Merlin appeared midway, it was suddenly interrupted.

   Could it be this one?

   Asked, it really is.

  Ji Xun was also puzzled, "Why is the cataclysmic object put up for auction?"

  That kind of big chamber of commerce is definitely not short of money.

  This thing is more valuable as a collectible than if it is sold.

Dong Qi himself was also puzzled, and said: "I don't know the reason. But Fatty Song seems to mean his grandma. And based on the information currently known, that sword is useless except for its indestructible properties. "

  “.”

  Ji Xun's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this.

   This is the truth.

  Most of the cataclysms are too high-level for ordinary people to use.

  This [X-199-Useless Great Sword] is said to be a cataclysmic item, but as the name suggests, it is known to be no different from an iron plate.

   is clumsy and has no special entries.

   Nothing but hardness.

  But when Ji Xun heard this, an idea came to his mind.

  He has the cataclysm himself.

  Just because this kind of high-end stuff isn’t available now doesn’t mean it’s useless.

   If there is a chance, it is natural to take it in your hand and study it.

  After Dong Qi and Ji Xun had an intimate relationship, it seemed that there was some tacit understanding between the two.

  She looked at Ji Xun's gaze, as if she had guessed something, and said, "Do you have any ideas about that sword?"

  Ji Xun nodded.

  Dong Qi's eyes lit up instantly, and he said with great interest: "Ah, I have wanted to kill that guy for a long time."

   She and Artest belonged to the kind of deadly enemies, and they would definitely not be lenient if they could kill them.

   But thinking of something, Dong Qi showed embarrassment: "But, that guy has already reached the third level, which is very troublesome."

  Ji Xun didn't take it seriously, but felt that the third level had some ideas that people wanted to try, and said indifferently: "Yes. When I advance to the second level, I can find a chance to try it."

  But as soon as these words came out, a new idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

Huh.

  Will it be related to this great sword that Artest advanced to the third level?

   After all, Tier 3 is a great threshold for a card master, and one needs to comprehend one's own "curse seal".

  That threshold has troubled many second-tier card masters for a lifetime, and it cannot be passed by just working hard.

   Instead, some special opportunities are needed.

   But Artest's breakthrough was very sudden.

  Thinking about it, this guy still carries a useless iron sword on his back at any time, maybe there is some special reason?

  Ji Xun and Dong Qi had lunch, and then drove out of the high wall of Lion City in the personnel carrier of the Hunter Union.

  There was a gray mist in the ruins outside, and the visibility was extremely low.

   From time to time, a few aberration monsters of unknown nature would pop out of the mist.

   Then Chuchu was shot to death by random guns.

   There are many wild monsters in the ruins, and everyone is used to it.

  Ji Xun sat at the window, observing the environment of the surrounding streets all the way.

  Although this is an ancient relic, the two-way eight-lane main road makes it clear that this was once an extremely prosperous city.

   After driving for about a few kilometers, the troop carrier stopped at a group of building ruins that looked like the entrance of a subway station.

  There's a Warp Light Gate here.

   is the entrance of the different-dimensional space "1981 Titan Machinery Research Institute".

   There is a team of mercenaries stationed near the space light gate.

   Ji Xun glanced at the "One-eyed Wolf Head" logo.

never seen it.

   In other words, these mercenaries are not from the city of innocence.

  Looking at the military mechanical equipment on them, it is not difficult to guess that there is a high probability that this is a private soldier raised by a certain noble.

  All the personnel got off the car, and there were a total of 30 people participating in the exploration.

  Each person was sent a free information.

  There is no admission fee for this entry.

  Because the difficulty is not low.

   A bearded burly man wearing a mechanical exoskeleton begins the introduction.

   "I'm Ke Sen, the deputy head of the Iron Hands Hunters, and I'm leading this expedition."

   "The information in your hands is the latest information we currently have, you can take a closer look."

"After entering the space, we will be randomly divided into three teams by the space will. The final reward will be judged based on the number of monsters killed by the team and the completion of the main task. Therefore, it is best for everyone to cooperate with each other, so that the team evaluation will be higher. In the end Settlement rewards would be better”

"The research institute has already explored a lot of different dimensions. So this time we will have some land reclamation plans. The difficulty of entering will directly trigger C-level, and the death rate is not low. If you want to quit now, there is still time. But everyone can rest assured , this time in peaceful mode."

  “.”

  Ji Xun has heard about the "Iron Hand" in the previous information.

   This is a well-known mechanical hunter group in Silver Mist City.

  This regiment has a high rate of equipment mechanization, and most of its members are retired professional soldiers.

  Comprehensive combat power is much stronger than the hunter group of the same level in Innocence City.

  The leader Ke Sen continued to explain some situations in the space, and Ji Xun just listened casually.

  The information bought from the previous intelligence merchants is basically available.

  While listening, Ji Xun also silently observed the positions of the people in the team.

  Among the thirty people, there should be four second-tier card masters, eight first-tier card masters, and eighteen card master apprentices.

   This space does not limit mechanical equipment.

  So most of them wear firearms and mechanical equipment.

   The overall combat power should be pretty good.

   And Ji Xun also noticed a detail.

  Although only Ke Sen and a few members of the regiment wore regiment uniforms, he took a closer look at the equipment and temperament of the thirty people, and speculated that at least half of them should belong to the Iron Hands Hunters.

  Looking at this posture, these scattered people are probably here to fill up the "guaranteed death rate" as cannon fodder.

  But everyone said what they said before, and the casual people also think it is reasonable.

  Ji Xun felt even more indifferent.

   After finishing speaking, thirty people filed in towards the distorted light gate.

  The surrounding environment changed, and in a blink of an eye, he came to a claustrophobic corridor.

   Enlightenment also occurs at the same time.

  「You have entered "1981 Titan Mechanical Research Institute"」

  「Current plot catastrophe level: C」

  「The death rate of this difficulty: 37.5%」

  「Space exploration progress: 39.1%」

  「Keyword: Squad Peace Mode」

   "Clue: Some unknown reason caused the city's secret underground laboratory to leak pollution, and tens of thousands of humans in the nearby blocks were deformed into monsters"

  「Current task: You and your teammates are investigators who are here to investigate the accident in the laboratory. You need to close the exit on the first floor of the laboratory to prevent the pollution from leaking out. Killing monsters will give you additional settlement rewards」

  Ji Xun looked at Qidi, and it was almost exactly the same as in the information, and there was nothing worth paying attention to.

  The only difference from the previous different-dimensional spaces is the "peace mode".

literal meaning.

   That is to say, in this space, teammates cannot kill each other.

   This also prevents a lot of teammates who kill people and get black equipment.

   But Ji Xun looked at it, but didn't take it seriously.

   Cannot kill teammates.

   But there is a lot of room for maneuvering.

  Observed the surrounding environment, not surprisingly, this is one of the three landing spots.

  Thirty people will be divided into three teams, one team of ten, and they will go to close the three exits on the first floor of the laboratory.

   Fortunately, he and Dong Qifen are in the same team.

   Others, however, are not so lucky.

  A hooked-nosed man wearing a mechanical arm observed the team configuration, exclaimed, "What's going on? Why are there so many apprentices in the team? There isn't even a second-order one?!"

  This time, the four second ranks are divided into three teams. In theory, each team has at least one second rank.

   But the strange thing is that their team doesn't have one!

   There are only three first-tier card masters, and the remaining seven are all card master apprentices!

   Moreover, even the apprentices are casual apprentices with poor equipment at first glance.

  The aquiline nose is incredible.

  Normally speaking, although the team allocation is random, usually the strength of the three teams is even, and there will not be much difference.

  But the current configuration is obviously wrong.

Yinggoubi himself is a Tier 1 card master, and when he looked at Ji Xun and Dong Qi in the team, his eyelids twitched, thinking of something, and asked, "You two...are you carrying very powerful mechanical equipment? "

   That's the only way to explain it.

  Only if there are card masters whose level exceeds the average level in the team,

  Dong Qi glanced at Ji Xun, and then said: "Yes. I'm a mechanic, and I brought some powerful ammunition."

  “.”

  Hooked nose heard the corners of his eyes twitch, but he couldn't say anything.

   But it can be seen from his expression that he is very desperate for this assignment.

  The mechanic’s ammunition is indeed a part of his strength, but the body is too weak and has great limitations.

   In case of encountering high-level monsters, without a second-level card master, the team is easily wiped out.

  This kind of team allocation is bad luck.

  The other seven apprentices also had unlucky expressions when they saw the situation clearly.

   It wasn't just their team that was surprised.

  The other two teams were equally confused.

   They are each assigned to two second orders.

  At first they all thought it was luck, and the team was divided into two second ranks.

   But after careful inspection, they found that even the apprentices were the elite of their regiment.

   That is to say, in the other team, almost the weakest loose hunter among the thirty people was divided.

  Deputy leader Ke Sen's expression was full of doubts, and so were the people around him.

   After a little analysis, they immediately judged that among the scattered people that the team entered this time, there was a certain card master with the combat power of a second-tier card master.

  Thinking about this, someone immediately analyzed: "This time the adventure team will not be mixed with some masters sent by other hostile forces, right?"

  Generally speaking, there are very few scattered hunters with outstanding combat power.

   Only the elite cultivated by some big forces will be like this.

  Recently, the construction of two new cities is in full swing, and they are also in competition with each other.

   There are also the other four members of the Federation and the great nobles, and there are also many secret methods.

Hearing this, Ke Sen breathed a sigh of relief: "It doesn't matter. It's better to have a master. It just so happens that Master Kaker issued a death order, and this alien space must be cleared as soon as possible. According to the intelligence, this 1981 study is a A special ancient mechanical armor power core, which is said to be able to support super-heavy mecha battles. If you can get it, it will definitely be a key technology that can change the existing mechanical structure. This time our task is to bring the information from the third floor of the dungeon to Go out, there will be masters coming in to crack it later."

   "But according to the information we have in hand, there will be no survivors after entering the third floor, and according to the evaluation of space experts, the 1981 Research Institute may eventually have a hidden plot that exceeds A-level. If we really want to go on rashly, I'm afraid."

"It doesn't matter, I have a top-secret information in my hand. There is a 'safe house' on the third floor of the research institute. As long as we can go to the third floor, the probability of surviving is very high. And it is much more convenient to use bombs. This time We have carried enough magic-breaking bombs, so we should be able to clean up those monsters on the second floor with low damage."

"Um."

  “.”

   Saying that, a group of people walked towards the depths of the research institute.

   Sorry sorry, I was going to write two updates today, but something delayed me.
