Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Chapter 545 Chapter 542 Eat a mess and practice dodging (Part 1)

Zhuang Xuteng finished the rice cereal and lay on the bed to rest. He slept soundly. Even though it was just a hard bed, there must be magic on the sheets, pillows and quilts to make him feel comfortable. In his sleep, he vaguely dreamed that he was walking on the streets of the magical world, and the bustling crowd took the initiative to make way for him, and everyone took off their hats to greet him.

The expressions on everyone's faces were not of fear or perfunctory, but of respect and enthusiasm. Their tribute to him was heartfelt, as were the children running playfully around him. A child tugged at the corner of his clothes and stretched out his hand to eat the "fuzzy candy". Zhuang Xuteng didn't know what Misty Candy was, but he found it when he took out his pocket in his dream. He handed it over with a smile, and found that his hand had turned into a skeleton, and the child had his own face.

Weird... Zhuang Xuteng yawned and slowly woke up. This wasn't a nightmare, it was just enough sleep. He stretched, not thinking deeply about the deep meaning behind the strange things he dreamed about. "I want to ask the Lich Master for a spoon that can produce rice cereal. I think about it every day and dream about it at night. Haha, I have become a child."

Since it is not known whether the time of the two worlds is consistent, and the sun, moon and stars cannot be seen from inside the Wall of Sighs, the time displayed by the Eye of Kaho can only be used as a reference and cannot explain anything. Peering out from the only window in the house, the huge wall of sighs occupied most of his field of vision, fully reminding him that "this place is like a prison." Fortunately, there are no ferocious faces inside the Wall of Sighs. Instead, it is as smooth as a mirror and exudes gentle fluorescent light, providing illumination to the town under the Qiuxia. On this side, it's gentle, but also boring.

Turning his head to look up, the hills blocked his view. Unless he leaned out more than half of his body, he couldn't see the mage tower. Does leaning out more than half your body count as leaving the house? Maybe it counts, maybe it doesn't. Considering that the Lich Master must be busy in the mage tower and it was impossible to observe directly with the naked eye, Zhuang Xuteng avoided this trouble and retreated into the room.

He didn't even allow Wraith Jelly to leave the house.

"What are you doing? It will take at least a few days..." Zhuang Xuteng patted his chest and felt that his body was back to normal. He could definitely continue his martial arts training. He just wanted to come here and do something that he couldn't do in his hometown first. So Zhuang Xuteng opened the bookcase, took out the books inside, and was dumbfounded when he opened it. He doesn't know the characters here, so naturally he can't read.

After flipping through it quickly and looking at the illustrations inside, he had no choice but to end the learning process. Counting on his fingers, the local magic rules are different from those in his hometown. Necromancy based on shadow followers and resentment cannot be practiced here, so this activity can be excluded. There is no local equipment to replace and maintain the implant. So there is only one thing left, and that is the super-calculated martial skill·Eight Flashes.

Zhuang Xuteng's super-calculated martial art, Eight Flashes, is based on reading the opponent's neural signals, coupled with the calculation of the direction of the battle, and ultimately achieves the effect of the enemy intending to move before he moves first.

So far, this core highlight is working very well. Most of the enemies Zhuang Xuteng faced had one characteristic: they were more or less safe blue users. The wraith tentacles combined with dormant martial arts could quickly establish a connection with them, and then be able to read the opponent's nerve signals. There are two current problems: he cannot establish a connection with the Trail Blazers' reinforcements wearing isolation suits, and his eight-dodge is still not fast enough without a connection.

The simple summary is: the highlights are bright enough, but the foundation is not strong enough.

Now that you know where the problem is, let’s work hard to solve it through practice...

Zhuang Xuteng hid behind the Wall of Sighs. No one from the company could get in. He was indeed completely safe, but his disappearance made the company's development team confused and nervous. The pioneering team that played against Zhuang Xuteng belonged to Dingxin Magic. It must be said that Zhuang Xuteng and Dingxin Magic were quite destined to be able to fight in both worlds.

Several enhanced people listened to the slap for more than five minutes, and used all detection systems to thoroughly scan the surrounding environment of the battlefield to confirm that no trace of the attacker was lost. Their captain Kendi waved his hand and said: "Ma Hong, stop slapping! My ears are starting to hurt."

"Captain, did that thing escape?"

"Probably ran away. Remember our manual? In addition to shadow monsters, there is also a threat that comes and goes in an instant in the Shadow Realm. We haven't encountered this kind of threat in many years, but this time, it feels quite similar. of."

The threat that comes and goes in an instant is the Lich Master. When he uses an invisibility ring and uses teleportation to surprise company personnel, he gives them the impression of coming and going in an instant. However, not all of those who "come and go in an instant" are Lich Masters. Some of them are actually "Shadow Monsters", that is, living shadow followers.

Living Shadows have always been high-level mages and archmages. Their spell-casting habits and characteristics will affect the abilities of Living Shadows. This is why top-level Living Shadows can often provide unique abilities. Some living shadows can also teleport, or become completely invisible, or block the sensory capabilities of the attacked, or simply launch attacks from extreme distances, underground, etc., which can give the enhanced person the illusion of "coming and going in an instant".

"We finally caught some clues this time." Captain Kendi said: "Everyone cleans the battlefield and picks up all the fragments left by that guy. Pay attention to turning on the battlefield situation record. We also need to record the location distribution of each fragment. Come down. Mahone, you don’t have to pick things up, contact the rear immediately and ask them to send a helicopter over.”

"Which model do you want?" Mahone asked.

"A model that can pick up all the people. It's best to send two at a time, separate the front and rear, and pay attention to safety." Captain Kendi said: "Ma Hong keeps slapping his hands, and there may be problems with the airtightness of the protective suit. That guy is elusive. , I’m not sure what he did, and the rest of us are not safe either. The safest way is to return to the base immediately and get yourself cleaned and maintained. Ma Hong, let the reserve team be sent from behind to take our place."

"Don't worry, captain, I will notify you in place." Ma Hong turned and walked towards the high-power radio station, preparing to contact the Dingxin Magic Operation Base.

The team members collected the scattered pieces, packed them in plastic bags, spread them on the table and wrote handwritten labels. Captain Kendi looked on, frowning hard.

"Captain, this looks like the miners' protective clothing from the Sanliu Charity Foundation. You see the way it is woven, it's their style." A team member who wrote labels picked up a few fragments and showed them to Kendi. "Here is the first half of the code. This format is also from the Sanliu Charity Foundation. Unfortunately, the second half was not found, otherwise the person could be locked."

"Just locking the clothes is not necessarily the personnel." Captain Kendi said: "An ordinary miner will never be able to fight against four enhanced warriors, let alone survive a frontal impact and escape smoothly. If the enhanced warriors deliberately did not wear combat protective clothing It's the miner's protective clothing. I can't think of what his motive is. In addition, there are other possibilities..."

The captain asked the team members to record, and this part of the battlefield thinking will also be included in the report and submitted. "Many people from the four major companies died during the exploration of the Shadow Realm. Some of the bodies cannot be recovered, and the same applies to their protective clothing and equipment. Is there a possibility that creatures from the Shadow Realm, such as shadow monsters, will protect Take the suit as a body, parasitize it and then launch an attack?"

"Common shadow monsters have no human features and are just a ball of mist. As long as you find and attack its core, you can defeat it and then capture it as a living shadow follower." The captain continued: "The method of searching for the core is relatively mature. Within five minutes of fighting, the core can basically be locked, and the success rate of capturing the living shadow slave is greatly improved. However, in this battle, the shadow monster core cannot be found at all using the same method, or it is not a shadow monster, but it still exists One possibility: The protective clothing blocked the core positioning radar."

"If the Shadow Monster does use protective clothing to prevent the core from being found, this matter becomes serious. It can be suspected that the Shadow Monster has intelligence, communication skills, research capabilities, and the ability to formulate plans. This is important to all members of the pioneer team and All pioneering actions pose a threat. Today's battle is likely to be a probing attack by the shadow monster. Its only misstep was that it encountered the most explosive and fastest among the enhanced warriors."

"If we exclude this, we are the losers in this battle, or the best result is just a draw with the opponent. Theoretically, as long as he destroys the communication equipment and then entangles us in an invisible state, the shadow slave will be defeated. Will devour us - this kind of speculation is best not to happen, and we must attach great importance to it and update the tactics and equipment configuration of the pioneer team. I suggest that the company hold a special war situation seminar to analyze the battle records in detail and make a comprehensive judgment. .”

"Another possibility: People from other companies are conducting some kind of secret operation." Captain Kendi has to make a study and judgment of all possible situations, and of course there will be this one. "Although the four major companies have reached a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement, each company cannot fully control every employee. And we must admit that other companies must have some secret research projects underway, new tactics, equipment and enhancements There will only be more and more systems. This time, it is most likely a test operation. We must strengthen the research and penetration of other companies to avoid major conflicts caused by the irrational behavior of a small group of people. Corporate wars are no longer possible. It is meaningless, and we must be careful of opponents who desperately choose to use the company against the company when they are completely unable to subvert the company with their own power."

Captain Kendi thought for a while and felt that this was enough, so he signed with his voiceprint and asked the team members to send this information out - of course after Ma Hong completed the request for help. "After the label classification is completed, continue scientific research and drilling. Make action notes and hand over and return as soon as the helicopter arrives. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Captain, we are all familiar with this!"

The members of the Pioneer Team have undergone high-intensity and complex training and can be said to be the elite among the company's elites. Due to the various risks associated with activities in the Shadow Realm, any factors that are not conducive to action will be eliminated. People with hot tempers, weak willpower, inability to stick to habits, and people who don't pay attention to details...such people are not allowed to enter the Shadow Realm, no matter how strong their fighting power is or how high their scientific research level is.

Those people are all at the company's headquarters or sent to work in the business development department of the branch. Even though there is only one word difference between development team and development department, their importance in the company is very different.

People in the development department have a generational advantage in terms of implants and other aspects, completely overpowering the police, military and ordinary people. Therefore, they are prone to pride and complacency and cannot strictly abide by the company's regulations one by one. But in the Pioneers, one mistake like this is enough to get you out, whether it happens in training or in actual combat. Any situation must be recorded, reported, analyzed, experiences summed up, and new regulations and codes of conduct must be formed. They strive not to fall in the same place twice, unless no one knows how.

For a long time, the Lich Master has been fighting against such strict rules and summed up the rules of either not doing it or doing it absolutely. He believes that if you want to destroy the corporate world, you must understand the corporate world, including shadow followers and shadow follower technology, including the shadow follower spells those people talk about, and at the same time, you must hide your abilities and not allow the other party to be prepared. In order to retain the final killer move, he stopped harassing the pioneer team. He only used the spells and moves he had already used during the operation, and did not reveal anything new.

At this point, the Lich Master and the members of the pioneering team thought of going together, and Zhuang Xuteng had not yet understood their level. While the pioneering team was thinking about countermeasures and the Lich Master was hiding his moves, Zhuang Xuteng was working hard to think of new moves to improve his abilities. In fact, this is also a response direction, but it is more difficult.

Supercomputing martial arts is a special skill of Famine Stranger. He started practicing it in his youth and became a master in middle age. He is able to fight against the company's business development department manager without falling behind - with the prerequisites of sword dance and priority retreat. In the end, Famine Stranger's super-computing martial arts were only at the level of eight dodges. Nine Flashes, he only has concepts but no actual success.

The Famine Stranger didn't know whether there was nine flashes or whether he could practice nine flashes. He also made this clear to his two disciples. Between Ge Gongdao and Zhuang Xuteng, he was more optimistic about Zhuang Xuteng, thinking that this more spiritual guy could hope to break through to Nine Flashes. At the same time, he also admitted that Ge Gongdao had an innate advantage in physical fitness. If both of them stay in the eight-dodge state, Ge Gongdao will be stronger - don't forget the sword dance.

If it weren't for Master Lich's necromancy, Zhuang Xuteng wouldn't be able to beat Ge Gongdao at the same level, and it would be difficult to surpass him in terms of practice progress. But now that he has reached eight flashes and is faced with the question of whether he can break through to nine flashes, he is the one with a higher ceiling.

"My Eight Flashes are completely different from Master's Eight Flashes. Master's Eight Flashes focus on deception with body movements, mobilizing the opponent's thoughts and limiting his tactical options. His Eight Flashes starts from initiating actions and judging the actions instantly. The effect is to constantly look for the opponent's conditioned reflex patterns and then use them. The nine dodge planned by the master must not only be able to deceive opponents at medium and close range, but also be able to cover long-range ones. It must not only be able to dodge ghost energy bombs, but also He must be able to guide the ghost energy bombs and shoot them at the guy he wants to attack."

"Guiding ghost energy bullets...are now replaced by bullets. They can only fly in a straight line. There is still meaning in cheating. The era of guidance has passed." Zhuang Xuteng thought to himself: "My Nine Flashes are destined not to be masters. Nine flash. As early as seven flash, we were already different. Since my eight flash is to read the opponent's neural signals, my nine flash must develop on this basis. Reading a larger area? Or... "
