Ji Xun has joined the job.
Extremely smooth.
He became a body collector in Innocence City.
With a career, it's like you have integrated into this sin city all of a sudden.
...
Three days passed by.
No. 117 Dongcheng Street where the Golden Oak Security Company branch is located.
There is a large, lonely red brick and glass house.
Behind the house covered with black glass stood a stone tower emitting billowing black smoke. It was the chimney of the crematorium.
This is the work place and dormitory of the corpse collector.
Three floors underground.
This is the morgue.
The corpses collected from all over the five east districts of Innocence City will be kept in the morgue for a few days until the spell completely dissipates before they can be burned.
Except for transporting corpses, no one would come to this unlucky place on weekdays.
There was no one alive on the entire floor, just dozens of "customers".
They were quietly stuffed into the cold drawer-like compartments.
The air-conditioning condensed into wisps of white mist on the ground, making it cold and quiet.
At this moment, in the morgue, Ji Xun opened his eyes from meditation.
He exhaled a little breath and sighed: "Hey... this [Great Dark Breathing Technique] is not very efficient."
His expression was extremely calm, and the iron boxes of corpses around him did not make him feel any fear.
On the contrary, it is quiet, private, and undisturbed, which is exactly what I want.
Ji Xun can use [Devil's Feast] unscrupulously to devour the remaining extraordinary properties in the corpse.
The only fly in the ointment is that most of these corpses have been treated with alchemical potions by corpse collectors, and most of their extraordinary properties have been lost.
But even so, it is enough for his devouring needs for now.
This is the third day of his work as a corpse collector. At this moment, the various values of his body have changed drastically.
"Ji Xun"
Strength: 1.13
Physique: 1.09
Agility: 0.84
Spirit: 4.85
Mantra: 65/65
Halo: The Gambler
Elemental affinity: Dark 12/Light 3/Earth 4/Wind 2/Water/Fire 3/Thunder 1/Wood 3
Skills: [Devil's Feast Lv0 (36/500)], [Shadow Stealth Lv0 (12/100)], [Advanced Firearms Specialization (1566/3000)], [Great Dark Breathing Lv1 (2/300)]
...
With the convenience of the Corpse Collector profession, Ji Xun has gone from a morbid attribute of about 0.7 when he first came to this world to now feeling much stronger than he was before he traveled through time.
Moreover, the affinity and spell power of each department have also increased steadily.
This is only the effect of three days.
Ji Xun could already imagine how his attributes would increase if he really stayed for a few months and a half.
The future is promising.
He stood up and put away the booklet in front of him that contained the route of the energy meridians.
This was the [Great Dark Breathing Technique] he bought on the black market in Innocence City three days ago.
The name sounds deceptive, it is the worst dark breathing method on the market, and it sells for nearly 50,000 yuan.
This has consumed almost all of his current cash.
I bought this breathing method to increase my Dark Affinity as soon as possible so that I can use [Shadow Sneak] without restriction.
After practicing hard in this booklet, one can theoretically reach the sixth level of mantra power.
Three days ago, on the night he got the booklet, he started to try to practice.
The comprehension +10 attribute brought by [JOKER] allows him to easily understand the obscure vocabulary descriptions in the classics.
After a few attempts, he directly mastered the Qi feeling that the classics describe as taking "1-4 weeks" for normal people to find.
That was the first time Ji Xun personally experienced the incredible beneficial effect of comprehension on skill learning.
Then he began formal meditation practice that night.
I tried to use the breathing method to control the magic power in my body according to specific rules, and I was able to control it.
And as it breathes in and absorbs the dark elements in the air, the magic power becomes stronger every time it circulates in a large circle.
The change was more directly displayed on the data panel. The breathing method was fully activated once, increasing the mantra value by approximately 0.1.
A cycle of half an hour. Theoretically, one night of meditation can increase the power of the spell by about 1 point.
As proficiency increases, the efficiency of the breathing method gradually increases, and the increase in spell power also increases.
Three days to this day, the breathing method has risen to Level 1, and the element absorption efficiency has increased by several percent.
This made Ji Xun gradually realize how strong the demon mark he had fused was.
But just because it was strong, he disliked the [Great Dark Breathing Technique] again.
[JOKER] This epic demonic mark has brought him affinity growth with all elements. He can clearly sense the various magical elements in the air, such as earth, wind, water, fire, light, darkness, Thunder, wood, metal...
In other words, any kind of magic power he absorbs now will not cause a conflict of magic powers.
And the [Great Darkness Breathing Technique] he is practicing now only absorbs a single "dark attribute spell power", and the absorption efficiency is still very low.
It's like there are a hundred parts of various magic elements floating in the air, and the dark elements only account for about a tenth. Then his breathing method absorbed about a fraction of this tenth, and the final efficiency was extremely low.
So an idea came to Ji Xun's mind that he didn't know whether it was reasonable or not.
He felt that if he could absorb multiple elemental particles at the same time, wouldn't the power of the spell skyrocket?
But this thought is just a thought.
Breathing is a skill that spell card masters must learn, and it is also very expensive.
His broken breathing technique cost 50,000 yuan, but he had asked about the price of the "black iron quality" breathing technique, and it easily cost hundreds of thousands.
Not to mention the Silver Breathing Technique.
Ji Xun currently has no money to even consider buying it.
The only valuable things in his hand were some skill cards obtained from the Blackwater mercenaries.
But when they first got these trophies in the extra-dimensional space, Chujiu kindly reminded them that it was best not to use the spells if they were not proficient in the corresponding attributes.
Moreover, there is a hidden mark of the Black Water Group on the card, so it cannot be sold.
But there’s no need to rush.
At present, the physical fitness is not strong enough. If [Devil's Feast] is eaten too quickly, it will feel like indigestion.
Ji Xun plans to be a corpse collector for a while longer.
.......
Not long after I woke up from meditation, the sound of "crunching" and "crunching" metal friction came from the cold corridor.
That was the sound of the building's old elevator cables rubbing against the pulleys.
In this quiet underground three floors, it is particularly harsh.
Ji Xun heard it from afar.
The elevator bars opened, and a fat young man walked out.
He pushed several new corpses into the morgue and greeted: "The second team has sent a few more 'new customers' and wants us to deal with them."
Ji Xun nodded and helped put the body into the cabinet.
This little fat guy is called Gibb. He is only sixteen years old and is also a corpse collector. He joined the job a few days earlier than him.
Since both of them were newcomers, they were the ones doing the dirty and tiring work of moving corpses.
Ji Xun felt that more work would be just what he wanted.
The more time he can spend with the corpse, the more attributes he can absorb.
But for others, the job isn't so easy.
The little fat man looked tired at the moment, and there were faint dark circles in his eyes.
This was not only because he had not slept well after two missions last night, but also because he was contaminated by corpses.
The reason why corpse collectors' salaries are high is not because of the nature of the work that people avoid, but the most important thing is that they are short-lived!
The out-of-control extraordinary characteristics will continue to contaminate those who are close to it. Although corpse collectors have special treatment methods, they have been dealing with corpses for a long time and the frequency of contact is high, so the probability of contamination and distortion is also very high.
It is said that no corpse collector at Golden Oak Security Company has been on duty for more than a year.
Putting the body into the box, the little fat man said apologetically: "Brother, I have to trouble you to burn those customers who are due. I really feel uncomfortable staying here."
There were dozens of corpses in the morgue, and all kinds of pollution were leaking out. His body really couldn't bear it.
Ji Xun didn't take it seriously: "Yeah. Just put it here."
The little fat man still felt a little sorry and said, "When wages are paid, I'll invite you to Downing Street for a drink."
Ji Xun smiled: "Okay."
At this time, Gibb looked at his dark blue arms that looked like corpse spots, and sighed: "Hey, it's a pity that I don't know anything, otherwise I would be a treasure hunter. Although a hunter is dangerous, it is possible to give it a try Get rich suddenly. Being a body collector means..."
Ji Xun said nothing.
If possible, he planned to work as a body collector for a few months.
The little fat man said again: "By the way, tomorrow the Hunter Guild's free class for card disciples, are you going to attend it?"
Ji Xun: "Yes."
There were no extraordinary academies in this innocent city, and he was worried about where to get systematic extraordinary knowledge. Naturally, he couldn't miss the Hunter Artisan's course on basic card knowledge.
The little fat man is also looking forward to it. It is always good to learn some knowledge: "We will be together then?"
"good."
Ji Xun nodded.
As soon as the little fat man finished speaking and was about to leave, a voice came from the brass pipe on the wall: "Someone found a body in the cellar at No. 17 Tailor Street. Dongjiu, your fifth team will go and take care of it with a few people. Remember to bring more Order the alchemy potion."
This is an ancient communication tool of the security company. Special brass pipes can transmit orders from the office to various parts of the building.
The little fat man spread his hands after hearing this, and said sadly: "We have to go on a mission again."
Ji Xun also nodded.
The job of a corpse collector is still ideal at present, but the frequency of missions is a bit too high, day and night.
With such simple folk customs in Innocence City, it is not normal for a team in the DC area that their team is responsible for not to collect several violently killed corpses in a day.
There have been more than a dozen missions in the past three days.
The two of them didn't dare to delay. They ran up quickly, took the tool box with them, and then jumped onto the steam truck on the side of the road.
...
Steam trucks with oak trees emblazoned on their black-painted carriages speed through the streets.
There were five people sitting in the carriage.
In addition to Ji Xun and the little fat man, there is also Captain Dong Jiu, who has a centipede scar on his face, and two other old employees, "Scabby Liu" and "Buck Teeth".
People in this world have strange names. Many people in Innocence City don't like to reveal their real names, but some people really only have nicknames.
Ji Xun has become accustomed to it.
All five were wearing white gloves and lifeless black clothes, which were the overalls of corpse collectors.
Ji Xun and Fatty sorted out the toolboxes containing bottles of alchemy potions.
Dongjiu and the other two old employees didn't mean to help at all, they just chatted boredly.
"The company sent a message saying that more than a dozen corpses were found in the cellar of Tailor Street. We are busy today. From the tone of the boss, this customer seems to be quite troublesome..."
"Tailor Street? Isn't that a civilian neighborhood? How come so many people died?"
"Who knows. I hope there won't be any troublesome customers today. I heard that yesterday, an unlucky guy from Team 7 of District 4 encountered a curse out of control while dealing with a customer in the Weasel Street sewer. His body was deformed and sprouted a jagged tentacle. , and directly bit off that guy's lifeblood..."
"Hahaha, it's really unlucky."
"..."
The conversations in the carriage were all small talk, but the amount of information was not small.
Ji Xun learned a lot from several people in the past three days.
But now it sounds very confusing.
During these few days of missions, he had clearly memorized most of the street names in the East Fifth District.
He clearly remembered that Tailor Street was a living area for ordinary people, and there were almost no vicious violent incidents.
Not only are people dead now, but more than a dozen at a time?
But no matter what, having more corpses is a good thing for him.
It is best if the pollution is as strong as possible.
