Was it really triggered?
Dong Qi looked at the sudden appearance of Qi Di and was stunned for a moment.
She turned to look at Ji Xun, who was like a prophet next to her, and said in disbelief: "How did you know that this would trigger an A-level plot?"
The reason was very complicated, and Ji Xun wouldn't want to explain it to anyone else.
But this Miss Qiqi, he said directly: "When I came in before, I observed the staffing of the 'Steel Hands' hunter group. The four second-level members and some other members are all elites, so they are at least for B-level difficulty. go."
Dong Qi listened and blinked, "That's it?"
She thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was true.
But at this point, it is obviously not possible to reach the level of such a "prophet".
"There's some left."
Ji Xun added: "I went to the intelligence dealer to inquire carefully about the mechanical drawings produced in this space, and found that almost all of them were drawings of various 'energy boilers' and 'energy cores'. And after I came in, I found that they were scattered around There are some experimental records on the ground. Then there is the immortality of monsters. I suspect that the core project of this research institute should be some kind of special mechanical energy core. As a mechanic, you should understand that this kind of technological drawings are very important to The meaning of the noble army. Therefore, those in the Lionheart family will definitely try high-difficulty plots and produce the most advanced blueprints. But high-level blueprints require high-difficulty plot output. So there is a motive, and they will definitely challenge the A-level difficulty. ."
As he said that, he shrugged: "Of course, it's more about intuition."
This is just speculation.
It's just a well-founded guess with a higher probability of being right.
"That's it"
When Dong Qi heard this, he was also enlightened.
No wonder this guy would pick up those materials that no one paid attention to and read them. It turns out that they are really useful.
Thinking of this, she looked at Ji Xun and suddenly felt why he had been worried about bringing her in before.
This gap seems really big.
Dong Qi himself had read almost all the information he bought from intelligence merchants.
But unfortunately, she didn't think of anything and just looked at it as some ordinary strategies.
But Ji Xun judged so many useful things through some clues.
This guy is so awesome.
Dong Qi sighed inwardly.
But after thinking about it, she added: "But the mortality rate is 70% for B-level difficulty. For A-level difficulty, how can those guys be sure that they can get out alive?"
"There's no guarantee."
Ji Xun shook his head with a smile and said: "They are a hunter group supported by nobles. They are supported by a lot of money and have high death benefits. Therefore, this kind of land reclamation task is also an obligation that must be fulfilled."
After a pause, he continued: "But it's not certain that we will die. We are still on the first floor, and they have already gone to the third floor. The exploration speed is already abnormally fast. Judging from the intelligence they distributed to us before, even if It's impossible for two teams to merge. So there is only one explanation, and that is that they have some information that others don't know."
Dong Qi's thoughts were still a bit unclear: "Huh?"
Ji Xundao: "As I told you before, the Lionheart family has a batch of top-secret information about the Old World. There is a high probability that Ke Sen and the others got some of it before. If I am not wrong, they dare to trigger A level plot, either there are special clues to clear the level, or there are means to save lives such as a 'safe house'. I prefer the latter. After all, judging from the current mission, if you survive five days in the research institute, you will be able to Get out. Although the clearance rating may be very low, the information can be brought out. It will be good if a master comes to break the situation next time."
That's what big teams are about.
They can have enough people to try and make mistakes and crack some difficult spaces bit by bit.
"oh."
After hearing this, Dong Qi understood the basis for Ji Xun's judgment.
But she knew all this information herself.
There was nothing embarrassing about the relationship between the two. Miss Qiqi muttered: "Ah, why didn't I think of that?"
“You’ll know after you experience it a few times.”
Ji Xun smiled and patted her head and said, "Put on that armor. It will be a little troublesome later."
"Um."
Dong Qi also nodded, then took off the mechanical exoskeleton on his body and replaced it with the fully enclosed Gunnir Orkin armor.
When Ji Xun saw this, the hidden edge in his eyes gradually became sharper.
With this armor, Dong Qi's life would be safe.
Then, you can let go.
Dong Qi seemed to have noticed the change in Ji Xun's expression and asked, "You don't seem worried at all?"
Although she has never experienced it, she has also heard of the A-level difficulty plot that hunters talk about.
This difficulty usually has a very high mortality rate.
No one is guaranteed to survive.
Moreover, as for the 1981 Research Institute, the Lionheart family is so strong that no one has passed the level so far, so you can imagine how difficult it is.
When Ji Xun heard this, the corner of his mouth slightly raised into a smile, and he said lightly: "It's because of the A-level difficulty that people have expectations."
He could already smell the crisis coming.
The feeling that made his scalp tingle slightly had hit him again.
"."
Dong Qi frowned slightly as he listened.
She immediately remembered that she had asked before.
Ji Xun's morbid pursuit of death adventure is caused by mental distortion.
But I don’t know if the two of them are already very familiar with each other. After hearing this, Dong Qi seemed to have some idea in his heart.
She could vaguely feel the pleasure brought by that madness.
The madness and arrogance in this guy's eyes made her feel inexplicably at ease.
The worst thing is death?
I already have awareness.
Thinking of this, Dong Qi suddenly had an interesting smile on his pretty face, and said seriously: "I seem to like this feeling too."
"oh?"
Ji Xun glanced at her.
Dong Qi looked at him without averting his gaze at all, and nodded seriously: "Yes."
For a moment, there seemed to be a soul resonance.
Ji Xun immediately realized that Dong Qi really felt some pleasure similar to his own.
This feeling that someone could understand and identify with him made him feel for the first time a kind of sublimation that was more suitable than physical pleasure.
"Ha ha ha ha."
The madness in Ji Xun's eyes became more and more intense, and the tiger in his heart came out of its cage, laughing, and then pushed Dong Qi against the wall and took a closer look.
Dong Qi's delicate body trembled, and before she could say anything, she already found that her red lips were sealed tyrannically.
She was stunned for a moment, and then responded enthusiastically.
Lips and teeth touch, warmth and warmth coexist.
At this moment, the two of them seemed not to be in a dangerous alien space, but in the apartment before.
After a few breaths, Ji Xun dragged her pretty face's chin with one hand, with a slightly teasing smile in his eyes, and asked: "What if we die here?"
At this moment, Dong Qi was extremely sure in his heart and responded without hesitation: "Then die."
As she spoke, her tone was free and easy, and she smiled: "At least I slept last night. It's not a loss. Isn't it?"
Hearing this, the curve of the corner of Ji Xun's mouth became more exaggerated, and it faintly stretched to the base of his ears. He laughed and said, "Yes. Silly girl!"
At this moment, he finally no longer had any scruples.
The manic emotions squeezed in his heart surged out.
Dong Qi was obviously infected by this crazy emotion, imitating his clown-like exaggerated smile and grinning broadly.
Their eyes met and they laughed.
At this moment, she felt as if she had also found the great joy of life because of Ji Xun.
Yes, if life is destined to die.
So, why can't we die in a hot and gorgeous light and fire like an explosion!
Before the two of them could talk more in the corridor, a monster rushed over at the end of the corridor.
There were so many monsters that they crowded the entire tunnel.
Ji Xun tilted his head and looked at it, his eyes filled with eagerness to try.
He muttered to himself: "Tsk, tsk. Those guys didn't just push the monsters quickly but didn't kill them. It seems they deliberately attracted the monsters here."
Looking at the exaggerated number of monsters, he immediately guessed that these were not just monsters on the first floor of the research institute, but also on the second and even third floors!
Only by attracting the monsters below can those guys better explore the depths of space.
But it doesn’t matter.
The very important purpose this time is to kill monsters and devour attributes.
There are many monsters, which is just what he wants.
Ji Xun's current strength is enough to remain calm in front of all monsters below level three.
And there is another very important point.
He saw through a huge "flaw" in this space.
In this space, no matter what the difficulty of the plot, as far as killing monsters is concerned, the most difficult thing is not the monster itself, but the "immortality characteristic".
As long as it cannot deal a fatal blow, it is almost impossible to kill.
This poses a threat to other hunters.
However, Ji Xun's [Feast] can restrain this immortality.
As long as they are injured, the out-of-control extraordinary characteristics of these monsters will be absorbed, making them invincible!
This was Ji Xun's confidence not to panic at all when facing a group of monsters.
But the number of monsters was several times greater than before.
This was the first time Dong Qi saw this posture.
The number of monsters in the tide was several times greater than before, and it was visible to the naked eye that some disaster-level monsters were mixed in.
She looked at Ji Xun and couldn't help but feel a little worried. She turned around and said, "What should we do now?"
Ji Xun grinned and said only two words: "Kill by force."
While speaking, the bones all over his body crackled, and then the muscles all over his body swelled out visibly.
The muscles under the skin were tangled like a group of snakes swimming around, black mantras were rolling all over his body, and black hairs like steel needles sprouted out rapidly on his skin.
In the blink of an eye, he transformed from his human form into a brutal red-eyed werewolf.
Dong Qi looked at Ji Xun's transformation with surprise in his eyes.
Although she knew that Ji Xun was very strong, she had never seen it with her own eyes.
The last time I saw him fighting was when he was caught by Artest. Ji Xun transformed into a werewolf and killed the cursed witch.
But that time it was just about knowing the result.
Now looking at Ji Xun's overwhelming pressure after his transformation, Dong Qi realized that this guy was stronger than he thought.
However, what shocked her even more was what came next.
As soon as the transformation was completed, a sudden "pop" sound was heard.
The tall werewolf had disappeared on the spot.
Dong Qi's eyes were slightly startled: "Are you really going to kill me head-on?"
She originally thought Ji Xun had some kind of strategy, but she was also surprised when she saw him charging towards a group of monsters hundreds of times larger.
In the blink of an eye, the werewolf had already rushed into the group of monsters.
"Ah, this guy is really crazy."
When Dong Qi saw this, he was also infected by the madness. His expression was not afraid, but instead shone with excitement.
He can do it, and so can I!
The ammunition box clattered beside him, and the Vulcan cannon on the mecha began to rotate again.
Ji Xun has said before that now that it is A level difficulty, there is no need to consider the issue of ammunition consumption.
Let’s survive first.
As long as you can pass the level alive, all losses can be made up for!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"."
On the first floor of the huge research institute, the sound of gunfire was deafening.
The six hook-nosed people who teamed up with Ji Xun before were still alive.
They were frightened when they heard the sudden outbreak of fighting.
The difficulty of the plot was suddenly raised to level A for some reason. These people were so frightened that they found a cabin to hide.
Now listening to the exaggerated fighting sounds, they also guessed that the two people who left just now were fighting with the monster.
"Are we going to help here?"
"Help? How to help? Do you think that the master who can kill B-level disasters with one punch needs our help, or do you think that the female mechanic who has the same firepower as all of us needs our help?"
"Damn it, I thought Captain Keson of the Steel Hands had a good reputation, so he came this time. I didn't expect to encounter a cannon fodder bureau."
"It's useless to say that now. I can only pray that those two can kill more monsters. Otherwise, if they are going to die, we will definitely die too."
"But let's face it, who are those two people? Did two people really make this move?"
"."
The fighting noises became more and more exaggerated, and several people were trembling with fear.
They don't expect to be able to complete a plot of this difficulty.
Surviving for more than five days is the greatest hope.
But soon, they also saw the monster appear in the field of vision.
Despair spread instantly.
The first floor of the institute.
The werewolf transformed by Ji Xun is like a deserted place among the monsters.
His current combat power without transformation is at the level of a first-order A-level disaster.
If you really want to transform, your basic attributes are no less than those of most third-level card masters.
His exaggerated agility allows him to move around like a ghost among the monsters, making it difficult for monsters to hit him.
And that terrifying power can kill monsters like chopping melons and vegetables.
With the sharp wolf claws, those low-level monsters can be caught in two pieces almost immediately.
Even in the face of disaster, with the [Plague Doctor's Scalpel] floating around, it would be difficult for the monster to survive two encounters.
It was really a tricky situation, and Ji Xun didn't intend to get into trouble. He just wanted to kill the low-level monsters first.
What's more, there is Dong Qi's fire suppression not far away.
Not only was she wearing a mechanical armor herself, but there were also several heavy machine gun positions placed around her.
Mechanics are not a threat in the eyes of high-level card masters.
But below level three, as long as you have enough ammunition, you will be like a god of war!
Dozens of long guns and short cannons fired in volleys, suddenly, suddenly, suddenly.
She alone withstood the firepower of dozens of people.
Just talking about the ability to clean up mobs, Dong Qi is dozens of times stronger than Ji Xun.
The monsters in this research institute originally had "immortal characteristics".
Normally, even if ordinary firearms can break through defenses, they are still difficult to kill.
For example, after the guns sweep over, there may be a large number of monsters with broken limbs and arms, and they will still surround them like zombies.
But for now.
A bizarre scene happened.
Once those monsters are penetrated by guns, even if there is no headshot, their vitality will disappear rapidly.
That weird immortal characteristic seems to have no effect at all at the moment.
If someone can see the extraordinary characteristics overflowing from living organisms, they can find that in the huge space, not only on the corpses, but also on the wounds of injured monsters, wisps of colorful gauze-like out-of-control extraordinary characteristics are moving towards one Directions converge.
In the end, they all converged on Ji Xun.
Level 3's [Devil's Feast] can already cover hundreds of square meters of corpses, and its devouring efficiency is several times that of level one.
While fighting, Qidi was also frantically refreshing the screen.
"You used Feast Devouring, your constitution +0.02"
"You used Feast Devouring, power +0.01"
"You used Feast Devouring, toughness +0.007"
"You used it."
Although most of these aberrations are low-level, the attributes provided by a single entity are very weak.
But there are thousands.
This also made Ji Xun's attributes increase visibly to the naked eye.
It was like there was a vortex formed by an invisible field around his body, sucking out the characteristics of the monsters that had been exposed.
As time goes by, the cooperation between the two becomes more and more tacit.
Ji Seeker eliminates the disaster-level monsters that threaten the mechanical turret.
Dong Qi used all kinds of firepower to suppress the massive minions that came out of several corridors.
With a body that has extremely strong defense and a armor that protects the body, no matter how many monsters there are, it won't be a problem at all.
Both of them carried sufficient supplies of medicine, and they drank medicine while killing.
The two sides fought fiercely for nearly half an hour.
There were fewer and fewer monsters, and the gunfire gradually stopped.
In the huge passage, bullet casings and corpses had piled up.
The number of monsters in extradimensional space is limited.
Finally, Ji Xun beheaded the last second-level C-level disaster on the spot, and the battle was over.
There are still some struggling monsters on the ground, but there are no new monsters coming in the corridor.
Almost all the monsters on the first floor of the research institute were really killed.
Looking at his teammate who was slowly transforming into a human form, Dong Qi also released his finger from pulling the trigger.
Looking at the blood flowing under her feet and the mountains of corpses around her, she suddenly had a dreamlike feeling: We were all responsible for killing them?
She didn't think anything of it during the fierce battle just now, but now that she calmed down and took a look, she realized how outrageous it was.
If I remember correctly, they just killed a total of twelve first-level disasters, five second-level disasters, and countless mobs.
With such a number of monsters, normally if they come in as a team of ten and want to kill them this time, there is a high probability that they will all be wiped out.
And just now, he killed two people?
Before he had time to think about it, Dong Qi saw that Ji Xun had begun to clean up the battlefield, collecting the extraordinary materials condensed by the disaster body.
She also walked over, looked at the dozens of wounds on his body, and knew that the battle was not as easy as it looked, so she asked, "Are you okay?"
Ji Xun chuckled and shook his head, "Small problem."
Several fatal wounds had been healed with "Cell Activity Boiling" before.
The wounds with everted skin and flesh that we see now are just skin injuries and are of no importance.
Dong Qi looked at them and said, "I'll take care of these corpses. You take a rest."
She also saw the fatigue in Ji Xun's eyes.
I am a mechanic, so I consume a lot of ammunition, but my physical strength is still good, so I can help with these little things.
"Um."
Ji Xun smiled and was not polite.
There is no need to be polite between the two of them.
There was some exhaustion, but it was not just that the spell power and physical strength were exhausted, but also that after the killing, the pleasure gradually disappeared, and the excitement was gone.
He found a dry corpse and sat on it as a chair.
Then he poured some medicine on the wound, took out the surgical needle and thread, and sewed it up himself.
At the same time, the feast is constantly devouring the extraordinary properties in the pile of corpses.
The whole battle was tense, but the rewards after surviving made people feel happy and relaxed.
Although it was Dong Qi's first time in this kind of extradimensional space, he was no stranger to collecting materials from corpses.
"Hey, that's good, silver materials are out again."
"Haha, this [Licker] has produced a very good outstanding black iron material."
"."
As the eldest lady of Honglou, Dong Qi is not short of money.
But it was also her first time to experience the process of killing monsters and reaping the rewards. The little surprise of finding the best materials among the corpses was beyond words.
Ji Xun looked at Dong Qi who was busy and thought that it would be really good to have a companion.
Without Miss Qiqi, it would have taken him several times longer to kill this wave of monsters alone, and the risk would have been much higher.
While Dong Qi was packing, he occasionally glanced at Ji Xun who was meditating, and a strange color flashed in his crystal eyes.
Only after seeing it with her own eyes did she realize how outrageous Ji Xun's combat power was.
There is nothing more outrageous than this among any first-level card masters I have ever seen.
And she also saw that Ji Xun still had many secrets.
I wanted to ask out of curiosity.
But I gave up after thinking about it.
Since he is his recognized friend.
It didn't matter what secrets he had.
Thinking of this, Dong Qi smiled slightly and happily packed up the trophies without thinking any more.
Unconsciously, time flew by and it was five hours.
Ji Xun had been meditating without saying much, and the wounds on his body were almost healed due to the medicine.
The most important thing is that he only swallowed up the extraordinary characteristics of this large body of corpses.
All attributes such as strength and agility have exceeded the level of 30, and the level is almost overflowing.
At this time, Ji Xun suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked at Dong Qi, who was minding his own business arranging mechanical equipment next to him, and smiled slightly.
Ji Xun originally thought she would ask out of curiosity.
But not for a few hours.
She stayed by his side silently.
Probably aware of the gaze falling on his face, Dong Qi also came back from being focused on adjusting the firearm, looked at Ji Xun and said, "Okay?"
Ji Xun nodded, "Yeah. Let's go downstairs."
Dong Qi also stood up and smiled happily: "Okay!"
Before, she thought the hunters were talking about the terrifying A-level plot, but now it seemed like it wasn't that good either.
On the contrary, she was looking forward to a higher level of difficulty.
Ji Xun seemed to see through her thoughts and said with a smile: "Do you think the A-level difficulty is just that?"
Dong Qi didn't hide it, "Yes."
Ji Xun shook his head and warned: "The A-level difficulty in this space is not that simple. So far, the monsters that have appeared have nothing to do with the main plot. The real danger is in the lower layers. At least, the second-level A level Not a single aberration was seen."
Disasters that can be rated as A-level must be monsters with special abilities at the same level.
He had seen it before in "Battle of the Sentry".
Both those demon commanders and the last red baron have reached the level of third-level card masters.
Moreover, the exploration level of this extra-dimensional space is only over 80%, and it has already reached A-level difficulty. There must be hidden plots behind it.
Dong Qi looked at his serious expression and became serious: "Yes."
The two of them walked along like this.
Not long after, we arrived at the central control room in the middle of the "Y"-shaped structure on the first floor.
There is an elevator here that can go downstairs.
When we arrived, a group of monsters were gathering there.
After Ji Xun and the others eliminated the monster with a round of bullets, they found a machine that smelled of blood.
Dong Qi was curious and asked: "What is that?"
Ji Xun was not surprised at all, and explained: "Some kind of special monster lure."
This is what was left behind by the Iron Hands Hunter Group that went down before.
There used to be so many monsters on the first floor because of this thing.
This is an advanced version of [Dirty Bullet Card], which can mechanically create a continuous smell of blood and continuously attract monsters.
"oh."
Dong Qi frowned when he heard this, and saw another kind of sinister human heart.
Ji Xun looked at the central control room, which was in a mess because a large number of monsters had been raging.
He didn't find it troublesome, so he rummaged through the scattered broken instruments.
Dong Qi watched him looking for something and asked, "What are you looking for?"
Ji Xundao: "Clue."
Dong Qi thought about it before and asked again: "Those research files?"
"Um."
Ji Xundao: "It doesn't have to be research files. It could be anything useful. For example: notes, institute structure diagram, personnel list, experimental project data, etc."
Dong Qi was confused. Judging from his current experience, wasn't this just killing him all the way?
Moreover, those other people have gone to the third floor, and now they are still on the first floor.
Before she could think about it, Ji Xun said: "There is a very important way to solve the problem in the different dimension space. The answer to the final puzzle is not necessarily found near the final level. Instead, it may be hidden after you come in, and every possible way to solve the problem is to ignore it. place. The more difficult the plot, the more details cannot be ignored."
"That's it"
Dong Qi seemed to understand.
She just lacks experience.
But people are very smart, and that’s obvious.
Ji Xun did not hesitate to say a few more words to her, and then expressed his thoughts: "We now know that there are two tasks. The B-level task is to take the file lockbox out of the research institute, and the A-level task is to investigate the experiment. The source of the room pollution leakage. The mission has actually pointed out the direction we need to investigate. That lockbox must be a key clue directly related to the source of the pollution. But the previous people who came here also got the lockbox, but failed to get it. The most likely clue is that they failed to open the box. So, we need to find the password."
Dong Qi's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this, "How did you think of that?"
Ji Xun said casually: "Isn't this a normal way of thinking?"
"It's weird to be normal."
Dong Qi rolled his eyes at him.
If it were normal, others would have cracked it long ago.
This seems to be quite simple.
But it is not easy to have such a clear and calm analysis in this environment.
And it's not just here. Ever since he entered the space, Ji Xun has shown meticulous thinking that is far beyond ordinary people.
It seems that I can think in the calmest state at all times.
Even in the previous battle, it was the same.
It's like a tightrope walker, very focused from beginning to end.
Dong Qi's eyes were dark. This comparison made him feel that he was not very smart for the first time in his life.
Ji Xun thought of something and said: "And there's one more thing. We can understand Talungu, which will give us more possibilities to break the situation than others. Look for those documents."
Dong Qi also became very interested when he heard this: "Yeah."
Not only Ji Xunhui, but she herself also knows some.
Because all the monsters on the first floor of the research institute were almost cleared, Ji Xun and the two did not encounter any more troublesome monsters.
They searched everywhere along the way and found many experimental files.
However, most of those files are experimental-related files.
However, hard work paid off. Ji Xun and the two searched for nearly two hours, and then found several patrol files recorded by security personnel throughout the corridor.
"Patrol record on May 3: At 12:35 midnight, the patrol arrived near the T65 cabin. Instrument detection found abnormal energy leakage fluctuations in the institute. Risk assessment D, report truthfully."
"Patrol record on May 11: At 12:41 midnight, the patrol found abnormal energy leakage near the T64 cabin again, risk assessment C; after feedback, Dr. Victor said it was a normal experimental fluctuation."
"Patrol record on June 2: At midnight, the experimental orangutans in the T area became restless on a large scale. Report the truth."
"."
When Ji Xun saw this, he suddenly had an idea.
I am a waste. Today I thought I would have to write 10,000 words, but I found that writing 7,000 words is the limit of the human body. Sin, sin, sin. Write as much as possible later.
(End of chapter)
