Cataclysm King - #72 - Chapter 72: This is the rhythm of being the sixth child
Chapter 72 This is the rhythm of becoming the sixth child
Ji Xun rummaged through the storage ring again, and found some knowledge books related to cards.
”Detailed Explanation of 108 Healing Spells”, “How to Make Skill Cards”, “Plague Doctor Occupational Card Template”.
Books are very scarce in the City of Innocence.
Ji Xun had always wanted to buy it before, but he failed to do so.
It was only after learning about it that the nobles deliberately blocked the dissemination of knowledge in order to consolidate their rule.
Ji Xun was able to find these few books, which were considered rare in the city of innocence.
He rummaged through it again, sorting the trophies into categories for easy access.
I got the two important items I was looking for.
Ji Xun is already very satisfied.
The rest of the booty gave him the feeling that it was “additional”.
However.
Just then.
He found a strange thing.
Ji Xun touched a simple silver mirror, and seemed to hear whispers in the dark.
“Huh”
He was immediately curious.
Looking over, Enlightenment didn’t show any abnormality.
Touching it again, the feeling like an auditory hallucination reappeared.
This time, Ji Xun was definitely not his fault.
But there is something wrong with this mirror.
“Demon Whispers?”
Ji Xun is no stranger to this feeling.
Before in the cellar of Tailor Street, and the two altars in the basement of Sequoia Street, he heard demon whispers due to environmental factors.
Demon whispers are not a good thing for humans.
This is a kind of information transmission beyond human cognition.
Ordinary people will be mentally polluted if they listen too much, going crazy, confused, and mentally deformed.
Tried a few more times.
This silver mirror still hears whispers when touched.
A thought suddenly popped up in Ji Xun’s mind: “Why does it feel like a radio or something?”
He vaguely felt that this thing should be a very important thing in the Silver Moon Sect.
Otherwise, the doctor is a big man, so there is no need to stay with him.
And the things that are not shown in Enlightenment are either ordinary items, or they must be high-end items.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun picked up the mirror and tried it.
This Devil Whisper sounds really big-headed. It is estimated that ordinary people will not be so bored to test it if they get it.
But Ji Xun is different.
[JOKER] The trickster entry gives him a chance to interpret the devil’s whisper.
I don’t know what this “probability” is.
But if you can’t understand it once, then listen to it several times.
Because he found that the whisper on the mirror seemed to be the same every time.
Intuition told him that some key information was hidden in the whisper.
As for mental pollution going crazy?
Hey, hey, why do I feel that the whisper sounds quite comfortable?
It seemed that the restless characters in my heart were suddenly suppressed by the ancient whispers, and became quiet instead.
It was like hearing the roar of a lion, and a group of little rabbits stopped hopping around.
Moreover, Ji Xun’s own mental strength is not low, and it is still too early to be mentally confused.
Looked at the status bar, if there is a problem, put it down, and try again after recovery.
Ji Xun has always believed in intuition.
Just tried again and again, he didn’t know how many times he tried, at a certain time when he was dizzy.
Suddenly there is enlightenment.
「You have listened to the whispers of demons from the abyss, believe in immunity from pollution, and you have deciphered part of the ‘secret message’」
“coming!”
Ji Xun saw the enlightenment, and immediately knew that his intuition was right.
He didn’t fully understand the devil’s whisper, but he also selected three key words: tomorrow night, nine o’clock, and Rose Tavern.
This is clearly a communication message.
He turned his eyes and figured out something: “This is the internal communicator of the Silver Moon Sect!”
This mirror is an ancient relic that is both a walkie-talkie and a phonograph.
At this time, looking at the mirror again, some information can already be displayed.
【Relic·Silver Moon Mirror】
Detailed explanation: Level I ancient relic; you can use this mirror to talk to other holders, and the content will be transmitted encrypted in demonic language; this item has a strong pollution of faith, and the faith points to an unknown demon god, maybe you There must be a common belief in order to interpret the secret message;
“Heh, this mirror also hides belief pollution.”
Ji Xun thought about it and thought about it.
He thought about it for a while, and then he realized that the belief in this hand was seriously polluted. He thought: “No wonder the Silver Moon Sect hides it so secretively. Anyone who touches this thing will be polluted. They are not afraid of information leakage.”
Demonic encryption, which was originally an insurance against information leakage.
But in order to prevent things from falling into other hands, there is a second layer of insurance: belief pollution.
If it wasn’t for Ji Xun’s immunity from tampering with beliefs, he might have been tricked unknowingly during the coquettish operation just now.
So there is no fear of losing the mirror or information exposure.
But the current situation is that he met such a guy whose belief cannot be tampered with.
This is very subtle.
Ji Xun looked at the information about the party, and a sense of crisis flashed across his mind.
But suddenly, some other ideas popped up in his mind.
The rest of the Silvermoon Sect must not know that someone is not their accomplice, and they can check these messages.
So… to be the sixth child behind the scenes?
Ji Xun seems to have discovered a little fun.
“But this Rose Tavern is not a very popular Fengyue Tavern in Downing Street? Those guys from the Silver Moon Sect are so rampant, they just wiped out their stronghold last night, and now they dare to party there?”
Ji Xun rolled his eyes, and suddenly too many thoughts appeared in his mind.
I have already entered the enemy headquarters. If I don’t make troubles, it seems that I am sorry for this opportunity.
Thinking of the Silver Moon Sect, the first thing he thought of was nothing else.
But do these guys have more psychics in their hands?
He is very interested in this.
After getting a little excited, Ji Xun thought of another question: “But then again, since this thing can send messages, will it have a positioning function?”
The encryption method is already perfect, and he thinks it is unlikely.
But I dare not take risks.
Ji Xun thought about it, and left the [Silver Moon Mirror] where it was, and then set up some traps.
After finishing everything, he carefully checked everything in the doctor’s storage ring again.
After not finding anything weird,
didn’t dare to stay any longer, and left the abandoned building.
Observe for a few days first, if no one comes to look for it, then it will be really safe.
Not long after, Ji Xun came to the black market in Anyu Street.
It took so long with the doctor before, and too much ammunition was consumed.
Fortunately, I got the loot from the corpse in the end, otherwise it would be a blood loss.
He has to add something.
Also by the way, take out some of the loot that you don’t need.
I haven’t been here for several days, and the black market in Dark Rain Street is getting more and more lively.
In the originally remote corners of the street, several shops that were obviously created by big commercial firms opened.
There are also several old stores that have closed down.
The bustle has also gradually faded the mystery of the black market, and it has become more and more like a high-end hunter’s market.
Ji Xun walked to the street, carefully observing his surroundings as always.
From a long distance, he saw the mechanical beckoning cat at the entrance of “Big Ivan’s Secret Treasure Shop”.
The entrance of the store was crowded with people, much more lively than last time.
As expected, the owner of this shop has a big structure, and the business is booming.
Walking and walking, Ji Xun saw a bunch of people pointing in front of the bulletin board of the black market.
Looking at it, it turned out to be a wanted warrant.
Most of the residents in Innocence City are exiles, and many of them used to be bounty prisoners from the Federation.
So the bounty system is rarely used.
Once used, it is a big deal.
This is a reward announcement jointly issued by the Hunter Union and the Golden Oak Security Company.
Ji Xun also walked over. From this point of view, it turned out to be a wanted order for all members of the Silver Moon Sect.
There are pictures posted on the bulletin board.
Ji Xun only knew two of them.
One is Baron, and the other is the doctor who was killed by himself.
He didn’t know the guy’s name until he saw the notice.
Ⅰ, the cloaked person, female, about 1.66 in height, good at esoteric magic, suspected to be a senior leader of the Silver Moon Sect, I don’t know more, reward 100W for anyone who provides effective information;
Ⅱ, Cloaked Man, male, height 160, hunchback, one of the senior deacons of the sect, good at driving undead creatures, second-level spell card master, occupation sequence is unknown; bounty 300W, reward 30W for those who provide valid information;
Ⅲ, “Plague Doctor” Hesse, one of the senior deacons of the sect, [Block 3-Plague Doctor]’s advanced profession [Funeral Forensic Doctor], good at using poison, using a relic grade scalpel, bounty 220W;
Ⅳ, “Lone Wolf” Baron, [Spades-4-Beastwalker], a first-level spell card master, can turn into a beast in battle, cruel and bloodthirsty; head bounty 200W;
Ⅴ, “Nigger” old road, sect officer, bounty
There are more than a dozen people wanted densely.
Some have photos, some only have text descriptions.
Ji Xun looked at the reward announcement, and the corners of his eyes twitched inexplicably.
Different from the melon-eaters watching the excitement, he couldn’t help but complain: “What’s going on with the Golden Oak, it’s all under siege, and so many important people have escaped?”
This made him, the instigator, feel a little less beautiful.
In fact, the reason why Ji Xun dared to report before was to a large extent that he judged that the overall strength of the Silver Moon Sect was not strong.
Originally, believers in the gods were like rats in the gutter in the city of innocence, hiding their heads and showing their tails, so there would not be any high-level existence.
Seeing the reward announcement, Ji Xun also confirmed his judgment.
Last night’s doctor Hesse is a “senior deacon”, only second rank.
The leader or something should be about the same level, up to the third level.
But such a small organization,
Under the siege of the Golden Oak Security Company, one of the most powerful in the city of innocence, escaped so much?
Baibai had high hopes for the guys from Golden Oak, and so many people ran away during the raid.
The ones that get away are all tricky ones.
Ji Xun complained, but after a little thought, he suddenly realized: “It seems that there is indeed an inner ghost of the Silver Moon Sect inside the Golden Oak.”
Without a ghost, how could so many escape.
He carefully looked at the wanted notice again, and it hurt his head just looking at it.
The rank of these believers of the old gods is indeed not too high, but they can’t stand up to evil methods.
I saw one with my own eyes last night, and I couldn’t even kill it.
Ji Xun saw the wanted criminal No. 2, and thought to himself: “This hunchbacked man who is good at guarding against undead creatures, can’t he be the gravedigger ‘Old Duan’ in Hessen’s notebook?”
Undead creatures?
Ji Xun has always been optimistic, since he has escaped, let’s think about the good.
The bad news is that I have so many potential enemies.
The good news is that they are not dead, and there seems to be more to the psychic.
“Besides, Baron’s bounty is almost the same as that of the second-order Hesse?”
Looking down, Ji Xun was also surprised.
The last time he met Baron on the train, although he also saw the record of this guy slaughtering an elite squad of the Blackwater Mercenary Regiment by himself.
But I didn’t expect that the bounty would rise from hundreds of thousands to two million in such a short period of time.
The bounty is obviously matched with the guy’s strength.
A first-tier bounty is about the same as a second-tier bounty. In other words, Baron is just as powerful in the eyes of those who evaluate the bounty.
Ji Xun was also very curious: “It’s strange, what kind of professional card did that guy use to change jobs, and his combat power is so strong?”
He came to the black market this time, in addition to replenishing ammunition, he also wanted to see the professional card in advance.
This kind of outrageous strength is naturally very curious.
Ji Xun stopped in front of the bounty column, not only, but also listening.
The people who eat melons in the black market obviously know some gossip.
“Have you heard that the thing that lit up in the sky at midnight every night for the past two days is the legendary ‘moon’. It is said to be something that pollutes beliefs.”
“Those old believers are really **** looking for death, they even thought of polluting the belief of the entire innocent city”
“Yes. Fortunately, the people from Golden Oak discovered it in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.”
“”Lone Wolf” Baron’s bounty has actually increased to two million, tsk tsk, it’s the first time I’ve seen such a high bounty for a first-level spell card master. Who wants to kill him and get rich in one go? “
“Kill it? You think too much. You didn’t see the battle last night. The masters of the Golden Oak Security Company encircled and suppressed the stronghold in Beicheng. The battle was so intense. That guy transformed into a diamond black ape, suddenly violently, Several second-orders failed to stop them, but severely injured some field agents.”
“Ah, so powerful?”
“Isn’t it? It’s not a big deal. I heard that the leader of the Silver Moon Sect is called evil. After besieging her last night, the spell lingered for a long time, and everyone in the street had a dream all night.”
“.”
Ji Xun listened for a while, but lost much interest.
The gossip is mostly based on rumors, and the more you listen to it, the more mysterious it becomes.
Ji Xun didn’t waste much time.
He walked around the black market again to see if there was anything new he was interested in.
Looking at it, it really does exist.
In the windows of several shops, he actually saw the armor and great sword of the Frost Knight!
Elsewhere, no one dared to sell and wear the equipment of noble private soldiers at will.
But in the city of innocence, no one cares about nobles or not.
This kind of well-forged armor is very popular in the city of innocence. If you really need a melee spell card master to use such a set, the safety of exploring caves and killing monsters will be greatly improved.
“It seems that someone in the maze of the Great Necropolis found the Frost Knight’s relic.”
Ji Xun also thought it was good when he saw this.
In this way, those sensitive trophies in my hands can also be boldly shot.
At the beginning, one or two hundred Frost Knights went in, and I only got a few trophies, and there were naturally a lot left.
After shopping around, Ji Xun still went to the Big Ivan Secret Treasure Shop.
It’s all about shopping anyway, so it’s natural to go shopping for a better experience.
What’s more, there is also the automatic identification robot cat, who is not afraid of being missed when selling things.
Walked in, and was still greeted by a beautiful customer service woman in a short professional skirt.
After explaining his purpose of coming, Ji Xun was led to the VIP room again.
But because of the opening event, skill cards can no longer be bought.
But here comes the VIP class again.
First-level VIP consumption over one million;
Second-level VIPs need to spend tens of millions;
Third-level VIPs need to spend more than 30 million;
etc
The corresponding VIP level has special permissions. For example, you need VIP3 to buy those primary skill cards you saw last time.
Ji Xun spent more than 4 million last time, sold a little, and the unregistered VIP card is still a first-class.
But it’s not necessary anymore, I just looked at the directory, and it’s still the previous ones.
Spell skill cards like [Elementary Fireball Art] and [Elementary Wind Blade Art] are not very useful to learn now, it is time-consuming, laborious and expensive, it is better to use firearms.
At least for Ji Xun’s current situation, the price/performance ratio is not high.
He replenished some ammo and looked at the class card again.
After the card master apprentice reaches the peak of his own attributes, he needs to change his job to become a formal spell card master in order to obtain a higher growth limit.
But Ji Xun took a look at the product catalog, but was slightly disappointed.
Even in the VIP catalog in Big Ivan’s shop, there are mostly whiteboard and black iron quality transfer cards.
There are only a few types of silver.
Very expensive, and they are all less popular occupations that are partial to auxiliary departments.
For example [Spades-5-Scholar] for 5 Wisdom Path, or [Plum Blossom-7-Musician] for 7 Art Path.
One grows in wisdom, the other sings well, and has almost no actual combat ability in the early stage.
It is said that this is a sequence that only the young masters and ladies of noble families in the upper city will choose to cultivate their sentiments.
Even if Ji Xun has [Imprint·JOKER], he doesn’t know how to develop after the two career sequences of job transfer.
He feels that in his current situation, it seems more appropriate to switch to the career path of the melee department.
Ji Xun has not thought about which career sequence he will take for the time being, and he is not in a hurry.
An hour later, Ji Xun left the Big Ivan Secret Treasure Shop.
One advantage of the chamber of commerce in this kind of rich ore layer is that you can buy things that cannot be bought locally in Innocence City.
For example: extraordinary books.
Although he didn’t buy any professional cards or skill cards, he also bought a lot of books.
Some aspects of this world are actually quite contradictory.
Obviously there is a mature printing industry, capable of producing newspapers.
But the vast majority of extraordinary-related books are very original hand-copied and gold-printed editions.
Extraordinary books are luxury goods in this world. The parchment used to make books only costs several thousand dollars.
Ji Xun bought the twelve-volume “Encyclopedia of Card Master Encyclopedia” which was handwritten by Xiujuan.
Listening to the sales introduction, it probably means the elementary school books of Uptown Noble Academy?
Although it is the card master’s introductory knowledge, Ji Xun is also very satisfied.
At least in all the shops he visited in Innocence City before, he had never seen any similar books.
In the eyes of others, perhaps high-level cards and equipment are more valuable.
But in his eyes, knowledge is an invisible force.
Because of the lack of some necessary cognition, people will make some wrong judgments.
Even basic knowledge is like a seed in Ji Xun’s eyes.
It will germinate in the mind, and gradually grow into a logical and complete tree of knowledge.
Because of the blindness of lack of cognition, if you really encounter some difficult enemies, it is easy to cause big problems.
In addition, I also bought some [holy water], [exorcism talisman], [wizard spell crossbow] and so on to deal with undead monsters. I also bought some introduction books about undead creatures.
Ji Xun always had a hunch that as long as he still missed the psychic in the future, there would be a high probability of conflict with the Silver Moon Sect.
If you can buy it, be prepared.
Now that he has money, Ji Xun went shopping in Fangshi again.
I also bought some insignificant things, such as some photos and rubbings with Tarun ancient texts.
It’s not too expensive either, there are quite a few such antiques in Innocence City.
After shopping around in various shops in the city, Ji Xun returned to the previous abandoned building.
Looking at some of the arrangements left before, no one has been here.
I think [Silver Moon Realm] does not have a positioning function.
But I was not careless, I kept the mirror in place, and went to another broken building where I could just observe the mirror.
There was a lot of noise last night, and the corpse collector company can’t go to it for the time being.
Ji Xun was digesting the things he bought today in the broken building.
Fill ammunition, make booby traps, and then there are daily compulsory physical training and meditation.
After absorbing the second psychic medium, the attributes of the skyrocketing need to be familiarized with.
Besides, there are books I bought that I need to spend time reading.
Ji Xun felt that he didn’t have enough time.
Unconsciously, time flies and it is another day.
The next day, Ji Xun went out in the evening.
Because he deciphered a secret message from the mirror: “Nine o’clock tomorrow night, Rose Tavern”
He was also curious, whether people from the Silver Moon Sect would really go.
Thanks to ‘Cai Xiaoqia’ 5000, ‘Shu Renzhen’ 1000, and ‘Happy Bad Guy’ 500 for their support, thank you.
