Cataclysm King - #78 - Chapter 78: original template

  Chapter 78 original template

  Ji Xun wandered around the market for a while, and bought some materials and ancient books in Talun that he had never seen before.

   Then I went to Downing Street to find an intelligence dealer, inquired about the latest information, and learned some details of the subsequent battle.

  It is almost as expected.

  At around eight o’clock in the evening, he came to the black market on Dark Rain Street again.

  There are gaudy traffic lights at the entrance of the Big Ivan Secret Treasure Shop.

   A group of **** girls with skirts slit to the heels of their legs greeted guests at the door.

  No customs, but **** and provocative.

   This looks much more upscale than those romantic venues in Downing Street.

   Just this hand, it is unique among the hundreds of shops on the whole street.

  Every time a guest comes, there is a burst of singing and singing at the door.

   “Guest, please come inside.”

   Brightened his VIP card, and Ji Xun was also led to the auction site.

  Big Ivan’s store has used the previously abandoned basements of several floors and decorated it like an aristocratic theater. In a school of elegance and luxury, there is also a bit of worldliness that is just right for business reception.

  The private room can see the auction platform under the stage, but at the same time, privacy is also taken into account. The guests cannot see each other, just like a private small room.

   Coupled with the one-on-one **** VIP girl, um, I can only say that the experience is really good.

   There is still half an hour until the auction starts.

  Ji Xun sat down, picked up the auction catalog and looked at it.

  The snacks and fruits on the table are mostly high-end products that have never been seen in the city of innocence.

   Just these snacks may be worth several thousand.

   Out of caution, Ji Xun didn’t take a bite.

  The **** blonde on the side is also very professional, so I won’t say much.

   Only add tea and water from time to time, press massage.

  Ji Xun glanced at the auction catalog, and couldn’t help feeling: “There are so many good things.”

  Since it is an auction, the goods are naturally easier to buy than usual, and there are many rare goods in the warehouse.

   Most of them are unaffordable.

  In addition to the legendary material used as a gimmick in the advertisement, Ji Xun also discovered that there is actually a mysterious catastrophe in this auction.

  【X-099-Useless Great Sword】.

   Can this kind of thing be put up for auction?

   After a short wait, the lights focused on the stage.

  A fat man in a tuxedo walked onto the stage.

  He directly introduced: “My humble Dragon City Song Can, let me be the shopkeeper of this small shop, I am here to express my sincerest sincerity to all distinguished guests.”

  Ji Xun looked at the fat man who looked kind and happy, and it was also the first time he saw the big Ivan’s boss.

  The Song family of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, one of the top chaebols in the Federation.

   Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a fat man who was about the same age as him.

  Although he is young, the composure shown in his gestures is not something that ordinary small households can raise.

  But before the opening words were finished, he suddenly heard a discordant voice and said, “Don’t be so talkative. We are here to buy things, not to listen to your nonsense, hurry up and put on the auction.”

  “.”

  Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly with interest.

   Someone is here to make trouble.

   But it’s normal to think about it.

   This big Ivan shop is a few blocks ahead of its peers in terms of strength and business methods, and it will definitely become a commercial giant in the city before long.

  When someone rises, someone falls.

  Business competition must offend many people.

  Other places will give you the face of the chaebol Song family.

   But the Innocence City is mostly outlaws.

   Cutting off people’s wealth, this is a deadly enemy.

   But at this time, a familiar female voice did not show any weakness, and sternly shouted: “A Tai, are you making trouble here because you want to break the rules of the black market?”

  Although he didn’t see anyone, Ji Xun heard the voice very familiar.

   Isn’t it Dong Qi who had a double-sided relationship?

  The other one is the fraternity hall master “Boxer” Artest I saw three days ago.

  A Tai yin and yang responded strangely: “Why, are you Honglou going to drive away customers? I also spent real money on this second-level VIP card. Are you doing business like this?”

Knowing that he was here to make trouble, Dong Qi didn’t bother with this issue at all, and responded directly: “A Tai, matters on the Tao should be resolved according to the rules of the Tao. If you do this, you will break the rules, and others will think you are a brotherhood.” Is that enough patience?”

  A Tai was obviously concerned about his reputation, so he pretended to be stupid and said in a daze: “Dong Qi, I’m here to buy things, what kind of rules are you talking about with me?”

  Dong Qi was momentarily at a loss for words like this kind of rascal talk.

  Ji Xun also shook his head.

  He, who was full of praise for the environment just now, also felt that his interest was greatly reduced.

  It feels like everyone is preparing to eat around a gourmet restaurant, and someone deliberately farts, and most of the interest is gone in an instant.

   If this goes on like this, Ivan the Great will not say anything about the auction, and the reputation he managed to manage will be greatly reduced.

  A business that even gangsters can’t deal with, who dares to patronize a big customer?

   It seemed that they were going to do it on the spot.

  I don’t know which room it is, but suddenly a deep voice said: “A-Tai, settle your matters in private. Don’t waste time.”

  As soon as these words came out, both parties in the dispute immediately quieted down.

  Ji Xun originally thought there would be a fight, but he didn’t expect it to end hastily.

  Dong Qi and Artest both want to save face. From this point of view, there are a lot of bosses here.

  Although there was such a little foreplay, the advantage was that there were not so many boring opening remarks, and it directly entered the auction session.

  The fat man on the stage still had a smiling face, as if he hadn’t been affected at all. This kind of demeanor is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

  The auctioneer also came on stage and started working.

   “The first lot, a piece of gold material [Fallen Gold], an excellent material for forging gold cards, the starting price is 5 million.”

   “80 million, deal!”

“The second lot is the brand new [P2 Explosive Bear Machinery City Boiler] produced by Higgs Military Factory. It can be mined, can be used as the energy core of small towns, and the core of military camps. It is a must-have boutique for land reclamation lords. The starting price is 30 million. “

   “The bid for box 17 is 430 million, and it’s a deal!”

   “The third golden lightning secret method [Thunderstorm Codex].”

  “.”

   Tens of millions or hundreds of millions at every turn, how could Ji Xun have the qualifications to speak.

   No wonder there is a VIP2 threshold.

  Looking at the auction items, it was all an eye-opener.

  He also noticed that most of the commodities in this auction are equipment and machinery related to land reclamation, which are usually used by large forces.

  Looking at the situation, the upper echelons of the Federation also wanted to push people from Innocence City to open up wasteland in the Old Continent, and released some of these good products.

  One item is sold out.

   Many of them are rare items that are not produced in the city of innocence.

  The hidden bigwigs who participated in the meeting fought fiercely one by one, and the price was also rising steadily.

  Ji Xun also encountered a lot of coveted boutiques.

   But there is no possibility of participating in the bidding at all.

  Although he is considered rich among ordinary people, if those relics and cataclysmic objects are not counted, his net worth cannot be compared with these hidden giants in the innocent city.

  Finally, the product Ji Xun wanted arrived.

The auctioneer on the stage introduced: “This product is [Cursed 4 of Spades]. I think everyone has heard of this ‘gold that is not gold’ professional card. It is the only one that can condense **** fragments under gold. . Not much to say, the starting price is 5 million.”

   A cracked card is revealed by the card girl.

   Ji Xun looked over.

  【Cursed 4 of Spades (Disabled)】

  Quality: Bright Silver

Detailed Explanation: Semi-finished professional card; after incorporating materials not lower than silver quality, the finished professional card ‘Spades 4-Variant Beastwalker’ can be finished; the fusion requires card player strength, physical attribute not less than 9, mana value greater than 4000, dark The affinity is not less than 40; the higher the quality of the material, the higher the requirements for the fusion of the finished product; the known distortion probability is 100%;

  The fusion conditions are indeed harsh for Katu.

  An individual attribute that can reach 9 is considered a rare master in Katuli.

  But this card requires strength and constitution to break 9, as well as the threshold of magic power and dark affinity, which almost screens out 99% of people.

  Enlightenment displays information in the human cognition category.

   It also doesn’t show why it is 100% distorted.

   Obviously there are some unknown hidden information.

  Ji Xun thought of something, and quietly put on the clown mask.

   With the halo blessing of cognition +2, looking at the past, it is already different.

There is an extra line of words on the enlightenment: “This is a professional card refined according to the original template. It has a violent increase that most human beings cannot bear. This professional card has added some divine substances of the great demon Oser, making At the same time that the spell card master transforms, he will get the “beast form return to ancestors”. The blood of the main body will also be transformed by the blood of the monster, and it will grow wildly; the higher the level of the blood of the main material, the greater the increase. If the fusion person cannot have the same blood If you don’t have the same extraordinary tolerance required to return to your ancestors, then your human blood will be permanently polluted and deformed into a monster.”

   “It turned out to be the original template?”

   Ji Xun was instantly surprised.

  Most of the card masters don’t know what this word means, but he just happened to read the explanation of this word in the “Car Master Encyclopedia”.

   “Original template” is the collective name for the first batch of professional card refining methods when the spell card system was created.

  It was a cruel era of fierce battles between humans and demon gods. At that time, if the spell card masters wanted to survive, they had to master very powerful extraordinary power. Therefore, professional cards are also very violent, but any means that can enhance combat power are used to the extreme.

   Often comes with some big risks.

   Just like this [4 of Spades], directly using the blood of the monster to transform itself, so as to obtain a combat power far exceeding the same level.

  But in the chaotic era that followed, I don’t know what happened, and the gods and demons fell.

  Humans no longer need such powerful combat power to deal with crises.

  Human physique has also undergone adaptive changes with changes in the comfortable environment.

   As time goes by, nature also becomes weaker and weaker.

   Generation after generation of professional card templates have been adaptively improved, weakening some berserk features.

   Gradually, it became a professional card system that humans can generally accept.

  So the current spell card master system is actually much worse than that of ancient times.

  Plainly speaking, human beings are too weak now to bear the berserk gain brought by the original template.

  Seeing this, Ji Xun suddenly realized, and thought: “No wonder the fusion will be 100% distorted. It turns out that it directly transformed the human blood.”

   Looking at it now, it is not a cursed card.

   This original template card is a good thing.

   Also because of the special nature of the original template, a professional card of Yaoyin quality remained.

  Ordinary beast walkers transform into two or three times the boost, while those who fuse this card, the beast form will return to their ancestors and gain several times the boost.

   This also explains why Baron is so strong.

   But the disadvantage is that this kind of gain is too violent, and now the human body can’t bear it, so it will get out of control and deform.

   “Good card”

  Ji Xun saw this, and became more and more interested in this [4 of Spades].

   At present, he has not seen a career card that is more suitable for his situation than this one.

  With the cognitive blessing of the clown mask, he now fully understands the nature of Baron’s out-of-control distortion.

   In fact, it is the extraordinary tolerance of the awakening of the demon mark on the body, which is not enough to support the growth of the violent attribute.

   The rank of the imprint of Baron Fusion may not be too high, silver or gold?

   But even if it is gold, Ji Xun may not be able to support the berserk characteristics of the “original template professional card”.

   But others can’t.

  Ji Xun himself is different!

  [Imprint·JOKER] is an epic source card, which has unlimited body storage, full element resistance and growable entries.

   This is super physical adaptability.

  Theoretically speaking, he can withstand that kind of berserk gain.

   It was as if he devoured the psychic with a feast, and his attributes exploded many times, and there was no sign of distortion.

  Seeing this, he decided to take a picture first.

   After all, after passing here, you may never encounter this card again.

   “The base price is 5 million.”

  Ji Xun looked at it with a slightly bitter expression.

  I replenished the ammunition before, but he really didn’t have much cash in his hand, so he had to sell some potions if he wanted to buy it.

  Too bad to expect no one to compete.

   Fortunately, everyone is not very interested in this card.

   Now this shot, only one person raised his sign.

   Seeing is about to shoot away.

  Ji Xun still decided to raise his placard to try, “6 million!”

  The auction went smoother than expected.

  After he raised the price, the original person stopped talking.

   Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.

   Everyone present seemed to know what was going on with the “cursed 4 of spades”.

  The merchants buy it here to pave the way for the legendary materials in the future, after all, they are all the spoils of last night.

   No matter how strong this card is, the facts have proved that it is 100% distorted, and no one dares to merge it after buying it back.

   Spending millions to buy a decoration, this kind of prodigal behavior may be a lot in the aristocratic class.

   But in the sinless city where resources are scarce, there are no such people.

  Ji Xun got the card as he wished.
