Indescribable cyberpunk

Under the sudden brightness of the incandescent lamp, several crisp electronic beeps sounded.

The gentleman held the gem in his hand and walked quickly into the workshop. The door behind him closed automatically.

"Testing this gem, I want to know what the gravel inside is!"

Pulling out the chair and sitting down, the gentleman put on his thumb-sized Bluetooth headset and eagerly began to control the instruments on the workbench.

"Analysis is in progress, please wait."

In the transparent cylindrical experimental cabin, light waves swept through the gem one after another, and the screen directly above flashed various data.

At the same time, the gentleman had turned to another computer placed next to him and began to search for a certain message in his memory.

He vaguely remembered seeing a report about "living sand" on the news five years ago.

The moment he saw Zhu Jue take out the gem in the dreamland, he had a familiar feeling. Because of this, he agreed to the transaction without hesitation and even took out two special treasures in exchange.

"Mavala, a Class A wanted criminal, committed murder, robbery, attacked Yecheng TV Tower, assaulted police officers, and participated in cult activities. He has special abilities and can control gravel!"

Through special channels, the gentleman easily found the man who had appeared on the federal wanted list and some information about him.

Looking at several saved pictures and a street video of him committing the crime, the gentleman kept looking back at the squirming gravel in the gems in the experimental cabin and some of the data displayed above.

Turning the chair forward, he tapped on the keyboard placed on the test bench. The two robotic arms began to descend from the mechanical bench above the experimental cabin, and there was an electric current on the syringe-like tip.

"Carry out electrical stimulation!"

After giving commands to the intelligent system with voice, several currents immediately wrapped around the outer layer of the gem, and this external impact quickly caused a reaction in the gravel.

In just a few seconds, the cracks on the gems increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, until they broke through a certain limit and fragments of the gems began to fall. The gravel broke through the restraints and clung to the experimental cabin, moving around crazily as if searching. The entrance to get out.

They are alive!

"It can't be wrong. It can't be wrong! Immortal Sand! I didn't expect that such a magical creature would exist in the Dreamland. No, maybe the Immortal Sand in the real world was the wind chime flowing out of the Dreamland. It was indeed the right choice to invite you to join the team. This is really a good gift for me, and it is worth the price!"

Even the wanted criminal who was nothing at first could rely on the Immortal Sand to grow into a terrifying monster wanted by the entire federation. The gentleman did not think that he would be worse than him.

Holding the experimental cabin with both hands, feeling the vibration coming from the cabin wall, the gentleman couldn't help but smile.

However, while he was very happy because he had discovered the magical treasure, Zhu Jue on the other side was in an equally good mood.

After returning from the Enchanted Forest, Zhu Jue was sent back to the Heywood District wearing VR glasses.

Of course, before that, his deal with the gentleman had been completed, so not long after returning home, a deliveryman came to hand over the things to him.

"Why didn't I realize you were so valuable before? Just such a small piece of split body can cost two treasures in exchange."

Zhu Jue, who had just taken a shower, was sitting cross-legged on the bed in a bathrobe, looking at the brass ring and a broken stone statue in his hand, and without looking back he said to the scavenger who was helping him change the TV channel.

Zhu Jue has personally experienced the ability of the Scavenger to split its sub-bodies and control them from the very beginning, and in the days when it was completely absorbed by itself and surrendered to Zhu Jue, as its strength gradually Recovery, this ability has also been strengthened.

If Zhu Jue wants to find out the gentleman's information, he cannot rely on his own imagination. He must put it into practical action.

He has to do all the tracking, monitoring, and exploration himself.

After all, the secrets of Dreamland are not suitable to be told to others. The scene of being surrounded by the Archaeological Association in Pasfica was not something Zhu Jue wanted to happen again at his doorstep.

But it's easier said than done. Zhu Jue has never worked in the intelligence industry, so he doesn't know if he has any talent, but he is certain that a gentleman will definitely be on guard against any form of tracking.

To put it bluntly, as a complete newcomer in intelligence work, Zhu Jue needs a "golden finger" if he wants to succeed.

The child body split from the scavenger is undoubtedly the best choice. On the one hand, the main body can easily sense where the child body is, and the child body will not be affected in any way. On the other hand, Zhu Jue believes that once the gentleman discovers the role of the child body, , will definitely imitate the original Mavala and find a way to use it for himself.

The best way is of course to integrate with the body, and the consequences of this must no longer need to be emphasized by Zhu Jue, right?

This is the method that Zhu Jue came up with on the way back to Neer City from Ussa. The inspiration came from the broken gem in his hand.

Therefore, the transaction between Zhu Jue and the gentleman is very simple, gems are exchanged for treasures. According to Zhu Jue's idea, as long as he can put the scavenger's body into the gentleman's hands, he will not suffer no matter what he gets, but he What I didn't expect was that the gentleman was actually willing to pay so much to get the scavenger's body.

This ring is a piece of equipment that can form a position around the human body in a short period of time. The effect is similar to the energy shields currently sold on the market. However, in addition to protecting against bullets or other physical impacts, it can also withstand some special energy impact.

Zhu Jue currently has no defensive means. This is a small prop that can make up for his shortcomings. I don't know if it will come in handy, but it is better than nothing.

As for the stone statue, it was what really aroused Zhu Jue's interest.

Spirit Hunter Statue!

When the gentleman gave it to Zhu Jue, he explained it specifically, saying that it was an object made with some special magic that houses a spirit hunter. You only need to hold the statue to become its owner.

However, there was a problem with the production process, so it looked damaged, and the effect it could produce was only average.

Injecting his own spiritual power into the statue, Zhu Jue immediately felt that part of his spiritual power was absorbed by the statue, and then the air next to the bed began to vibrate violently.

Ouch! ! !

Wind Chime, who was rolling around on the bed wrapped in a bath towel, suddenly leaned over and let out a warning growl. Even Zhu Jue was a little startled by the sudden appearance of this guy in front of him.

This is a terrifying humanoid monster. Its blood-red eyes are as huge as gongs. Its bloody mouth is filled with shark-like teeth. It has a long and pointed nose hanging on its face. Its body is terrifyingly slender and its belly is... But it swelled.

One end of their limbs has disgusting appendages, the feet are closer to humans, and the hands are more like giant crab claws.

What surprised Zhu Jue was that such a monster did not seem to be an entity. It was thin and non-material. It was suspended on the ground when it appeared. It was more like a ghost than a flesh-and-blood monster.

"It looks good, but I don't know how it works."

Probably because he is used to seeing those terrifying and nameless monsters, Zhu Jue's current aesthetic limit is not very low. Basically, as long as he is tall enough to match people, he can be considered eye-catching.

In the following time, Zhu Jue began to test the ability of this so-called spirit hunter.

It seems to be able to hide like a ghost, but it can only be translucent, which means it can still be easily spotted in places with light.

Its strength and speed are pretty good, close to the level of a protofish, but ordering it to fight seems to require the consumption of mental energy as support, and the range it can patrol is about 50 meters. Beyond this range, it will Enter a state of dissipation.

The summary result is a complete tasteless thing!

Zhu Jue finally understood why the gentleman would not hesitate to trade this kind of summoned object that was both offensive and defensive, and also quite loyal.

Perhaps because of the damage, all its abilities have been severely weakened. It looks powerful, but in fact, it is just that. For people like Rhino and AK, it is undoubtedly a treasure, but for Zhu Jue, it is not. A completely useless item.

For the time being, he put the brass ring on his left index finger, and simply put the spirit hunter statue in his handbag. Maybe he could find a place to use it in the future.

Zhu Jue did not choose to rest, but turned around and wiped the wind chime with some wet hair before getting up and walking towards the computer desk next to the door.

The conversation with Elder Atal in the dreamland made Zhu Jue realize that this "Book of Dekian" should contain some kind of special power. While there was still some time, Zhu Jue couldn't wait to do it again. read.

However, some things are not achieved overnight. Atal's reminder did not give Zhu Jue the ability to interpret "The Book of Dekian". During the reading process, most of the time he fell into something that was difficult to describe in words. , even simple imagination can make people feel mentally retarded, which greatly hinders his "learning" behavior.

Although he had tried his best to read it, Zhu Jue's mental exhaustion still forced Zhu Jue to put down the Book of Dekian an hour later. He didn't even bother to read the text message prompts on his mobile phone. He just returned to the bed with the wind chime and entered Dreamland.

Perhaps it was due to the recent three days of traveling in the dream world and the reading just now. Every time he fell asleep, he was in a deep sleep. Zhu felt that he had dreamed for a long time.

The silver mind beast was entrenched next to his bed. At a certain moment, it suddenly raised its head, as if it had noticed something, and looked around, and then fell down again.

Zhu Jue, who was wrapped in a quilt like a meatball, suddenly frowned.

"the Old Ones?"

His lips opened and closed, and he spoke as if talking in his sleep.
