Underworld Retrograde
Chapter 88 The mysterious shadow of the manor
Due to the influence of the fear curse, the doll can only eat alone.
Usually he would either take meals back to his lounge, or go home and cook himself.
This also allowed her to develop good cooking skills. The dishes made taste very good.
So, under her expectant gaze, Li Yelai finished three large bowls of rice in a row.
"I feel like if I continue to eat, my mouth will be spoiled." In the kitchen, Li Yelai sighed while washing the dishes.
Thanks to the high intensity of my daily training, otherwise I would have gained weight sooner or later.
The doll who was sorting out the cabinet next to her showed a soft smile. Her eyes were half-curved and her lips were slightly parted: "It's okay. I can cook it for you anytime. What do you want to eat next time? I'm fine. Prepare in advance.”
"Well, let's talk about this later. There's no rush." Li Yelai handed the washed dishes and chopsticks to the doll and responded.
The weather in December has become completely cold, and the high walls of the giant city can't cover the winter wind sweeping through the wilderness.
When the doll got home, she put on a set of white plush pajamas and tied a high ponytail.
But even thick pajamas could not hide her tall figure. The ponytail she tied on gave her a more handsome temperament.
With repeated contact, Li Yelai could clearly feel that the doll's smile became brighter and brighter.
Who would have thought that a powerful psyker was feared by countless people.
She is such a lively and gentle girl.
Hmm. The Flying Gunman might not think so.
The relationship between the two of them has gone from being tense and awkward at the beginning to being harmonious now.
However, when Li Yelai saw the doll's smile, he subconsciously looked away.
Every time he sees the innocent and ignorant doll's face, Li Yelai always thinks of the erotic scenes in the fantasy world.
This made him feel deeply guilty.
I immediately rinsed my face at the kitchen sink.
"What's wrong with you?" The doll was startled and grabbed his sleeves to wipe the water stains on Li Yelai's face.
"It's okay, calm down." Li Yelai waved his hand and declined, and picked up a tissue to wipe his cheek: "I'm going back first."
"Why don't you stay and play some games?" The doll was startled and pointed to the living room, obviously wanting to continue playing the game console like last time. If Li Yelai is not skilled, she can still teach him for a while. (ω)
"Let's play together next time, okay? I still have some things to deal with. Besides, it's not good for me to stay here alone as a man too late." Li Yelai responded. This was not a lie.
After three nights of sleep, Li Yelai had to go to the equipment department to update his equipment, and he also had to comfort the injured tiger clone.
And last time I stayed here to play games, after being complained about by the official liaison officer, there would probably be gossip. The pair of dolls also have a bad reputation.
A trace of disappointment flashed across the doll's face, but it quickly put on a smile: "Okay, then be careful on the road."
After Li Yelai left, the doll showed a depressed expression╥﹏╥
I heard from a friend that to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach. It seemed like I had made a mistake somewhere.
If her friends were to find out, they would probably complain, 'This Yejiang is somewhat ungrateful! ’
On the other side, Li Yelai did have something going on.
He first went to the branch canteen and bought two fans of pork at a reasonable price for more than 3,000 huge city coins.
I found a training room with few people, summoned the tiger clone, and let it feast.
In the battle with the Flying Gunman, the Tiger clone was seriously injured. First, it was hit by intensive fire from the line explosion, and the psychic barrier was torn to pieces. The body was injured. Later, he was stabbed in the body by an anti-psionic weapon.
The huge pain made it resist Li Yelai's call.
If you don't feed it, it won't come out again.
After eating two fans of pork, it became close to Li Yelai again, leaning close to Li Yelai and exposing its belly.
"You guy, you really are a mother if you have breasts. Sooner or later you will make me poor." Li Yelai laughed and cursed, patting the belly of the tiger clone.
It is not difficult to survive in a giant city, but it is difficult to improve your living standard.
This slice of pork costs an average person nearly two months' salary. It gets two pigs in one meal.
In the past, this guy would have eaten up more than three months of Li Yelai's salary in one meal.
If the handler's salary was not low and he didn't need to be fed every meal, Li Yelai really couldn't afford to feed this guy.
But the tiger clone didn't care, and even started to grunt.
Li Yelai asked the tiger clone to return to the halberd, and then went to the equipment department to prepare to update the equipment.
I don't want to think about psychic weapons. Li Yelai has enough for now, but too many will be dangerous.
At present, what Li Yelai wants is to strengthen his big black umbrella.
The Equipment Department warmly welcomed this. They had long wanted to put a gun barrel on the big black umbrella.
According to them, when Li Yelai encounters an enemy in the future, he can use the big black umbrella to attack the enemy first. Wait for the opponent to get close, then draw the halberd from the big black umbrella and fight the enemy in close combat.
The idea was very good, and Li Yelai liked it very much.
But in terms of price, Li Yelai was very unhappy!
"Forty merit points? Do you want to grab them?" Li Yelai was stunned: "Why do you want to charge me forty points?"
Merit points are converted into giant city coins, and one point can be exchanged for around 15,000 giant city coins.
Forty merit points are close to 600,000 giant city coins!
It’s enough to buy a house! Just a gun?
As a scavenger, the price of firearms is considered high, but a few thousand city coins are enough to give you a dozen!
The staff in the equipment department were not surprised by this. Every handler who came here to shop looked like this.
"It's different. We are going to use a large-caliber melta gun." The staff of the equipment department explained: "It is very powerful and can consume the psychic barrier very well. It will provide great convenience for your subsequent battles. "
Of course Li Yelai knew the power of the melt gun. This is currently one of the few technological weapons that can cause a lot of damage to psykers. It looks like a large spray gun, emitting a heat flow with extremely high temperature that can burn metal into liquid in the blink of an eye.
This is why a melt ax can cut through metal with ease.
The power and effect of the melta gun will only be greater, but the effective range is very short.
However, it is also possible to consume a huge amount of a psyker's psychic barrier in a very short period of time. If a low-awakened psyker is directly hit by the melt, if he is unlucky, his psychic energy will be exhausted and he will die instantly. Even third- or fourth-awakened psykers will suffer the same fate if they are madly focused on fire.
Before the establishment of the Processing Department, the Border Guards used melta guns and chainswords to eliminate a large number of illegal psykers.
Although the cost was huge, it also gained the reputation of hot melt.
Later, the old boy Wang Dena brought back the blueprint of an improved version of the melt gun from outside the city.
Makes the melt gun more flexible. Even if he is not an Iron Guard, he can still handle it. It's just a little weaker in power.
The equipment department chose for themselves the Iron Guard version of the melta gun. While retaining its power, it also makes it more concealable.
That's the price
Li Yelai hesitated for a long time, and negotiated with the equipment department until 35 o'clock before finalizing the deal.
Two days later, Li Yelai got the modified big black umbrella.
All the ribs have been replaced with stronger titanium alloy. At the tip of the umbrella, there are three more invisible heat pipes.
Apparently, the melta gun was fired from the tip of the umbrella.
As long as Li Yelai put the halberd into the black umbrella, grabbed the umbrella rib and twisted it in a certain direction.
The umbrella head will emit hot melt.
Li Yelai tried out the power in the training room. As the halberd twisted, a melta bomb was quickly shot out.
In an instant, most of the metal cube ten meters away was dissolved.
This kind of power is enough for anti-tank.
The power is very good, but the drawback is that it can only load five rounds of melta ammunition. Moreover, the weight of the modified big black umbrella has also increased a lot.
If you are not a psyker, and you are a psyker with higher physical strength. Li Yelai really may not be able to carry it.
After checking the power of the weapon, Li Yelai paid the balance.
At this point, Li Yelai only had forty merit points left.
After all, it was a bit tight.
"It seems that I have to take on some tasks...or some private work?" Li Yelai was thinking in his mind. Although he had just slept for the third time, according to the experience of other processor colleagues, he had to start saving up and prepare to buy a four-sleep apartment. Magic potion.
I don’t know how long I will save the 500 merit points for the Four Awakening Potions.
Li Yelai remembered the formula for the four-sense whispering potion, Dragon Roar, that he had brought back from the Ark.
According to Yinhuo, wait until official trials are completed and efficacy is determined. He will give Li Yelai a magic potion as a gift.
At that time, if you sell it, you may not be short of merit points.
In other words, in the Ark, see if anyone can trade with you? Get some materials or something to trade?
However, it seems that Li Ye can't give him any reward when he comes here.
"Missions don't come often, so let's check out the private work first." Li Yelai thought to himself and planned to make a call to the detective.
But he accidentally saw a message from the antique shop owner.
[Xiaoye, come to the store when you have time, someone is looking for you. 】
I was arguing with the equipment department just now, so I didn't notice it immediately.
"You went to the antique shop and came to see me specifically? Are you one of the people from the Red Body Chamber of Commerce?" Li Yelai thought for a moment and came to some understanding.
The antique shop owner knew Li Yelai's official identity.
Although, Li Ye has not been to an antique store during this period of time.
But the boss kept giving him a good name and continued to pay him wages. This made Li Yelai very embarrassed. I resigned several times but was rejected by my boss.
According to the boss, because of Li Yelai's behavior at the Hongbiao Chamber of Commerce, the Hongbiao Chamber of Commerce treated him very politely after being rectified.
The scavengers all spoke with their fists, and Li Yelai almost singled out their senior management. They all respected Li Yelai and even the antique shop.
In this case, who would come to find me?
Li Yelai was thinking in his mind. After walking out of the branch, he picked up his mobile phone and called the owner of the antique shop.
"Hello, Xiaoye." The boss quickly answered the phone, and he was so angry that it didn't look like there was any problem: "Do you have time? Someone is looking for you."
"Who is it? What do you want from me?" Li Yelai asked.
"It's one of the businessmen who was in the Red Guard Chamber of Commerce last time. His surname is Zhao, you can just call him Lao Zhao."
"He recently purchased a house for a client, but something strange happened. He planned to come to you to have a look. It's still in the store." The boss lowered his voice and said, "Do you want to refuse?"
"That's not necessary." Li Yelai responded: "Can you tell me the specific situation?"
"He didn't say much about the specifics. Anyway, it was a caravan from a distant giant city that planned to come to Border City No. 3 for development. Before the large group of caravans arrived at the giant city, they first sent a team to Border City No. 1. I contacted Lao Zhao as an intermediary in advance and planned to buy a house in Jucheng. Lao Zhao also selected the location according to the requirements, which is a manor in the new city. "
"It's really rich!" Li Yelai sighed with emotion. Li Yelai didn't dare to think about the housing prices in that place.
"Yes, they are so wealthy that they spent 8 million city coins to directly take over the manor. They are really rich. With so much money, they travel all over the world. They are not afraid of being robbed." The boss also sighed with emotion.
After the disaster, in the same giant city circle.
Such as Border City No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3, and Lava Mine City.
Four giant cities form a giant city circle, and within the four giant cities, bank data can still be interoperable.
The money saved in Border City No. 3 can also be withdrawn in the other three cities.
But if people in other giant cities want to trade, they have to carry currency through the wilderness. The bank can't help. Disasters cut off communication with certain giant cities.
Being able to directly take out eight million giant city coins is equivalent to them carrying enough belongings through the wilderness.
"But when cleaning up the manor, Lao Zhao's people had some accidents. He often saw some strange things in the middle of the night."
"Something weird?" Li Yelai asked.
"It seemed to them that they saw their relatives who were no longer alive. But soon, the vision disappeared. Although there is no danger at the moment, Lao Zhao is also worried."
"Seeing that the delivery time is approaching, I plan to invite you to come and take a look. If it can be solved, I will give you a lot of reward, fifty thousand giant city coins!"
"That's it. Okay, I'll be there in a minute."
Li Yelai planned to go and find out the situation first.
If there is something really weird, then the authorities need to get involved.
Private work is private work. Once such weird events are involved, the authorities still have to intervene.
After thinking for a while, he called the detective again and explained the situation.
When it comes to investigating strange incidents, detectives are the professionals.
The detective responded: "Good guy, I was still thinking about how to find you a private job, but I didn't expect you to come here first. Okay, I'll pick you up!"
On the other side, in the antique shop, the boss comforted Old Zhao and said, "Okay, Old Zhao, don't worry, he agreed. You know his strength and identity. As long as he is here, there will be no problem."
A middle-aged man with some white hair nodded: "I know, but it's better to be careful. Lao Zhang, you have never been to the north, so you don't know the capabilities of that family. I don't want to offend them."
"What family?" the boss asked with a frown.
"Yao Qingjing's family"
