"My eyes hurt."
In a pure black space, on an absolutely flat ground. The silvery-white horizon gently exudes white spots of light, and angels and dragons soar in the sky. Valentine sat cross-legged on the ground, covering his eye that had just been shot with his left hand. He raised his head and looked at the thunder and lightning and holy light jumping in the sky with his remaining right eye, with a slight smile on his lips.
"Okay, put your hands down, your eyes are fine a long time ago." Jiao Zhengyu sat opposite him and yawned, the cat ears on his head trembling.
The mental space is different from the real world, especially when it comes to the body. Just like the roc spreading its wings on the verge of death so many times, as soon as he comes here, the wounds on Valentine's body disappear without a trace. Although it is still the same in reality, at least he will not feel the pain here. . As for the eye pain he mentioned just now, Jiao Zhengyu can definitely think that it is the sequelae left after healing the wound on the eyeball.
After all, he didn't see the blood flowing from the cracks of Valentine's fingers, and the little dragon man's face was as clean as this space. And if he really brings the injuries he suffered in reality into the spiritual space, just like when he ate the Source Stone last time, then the person sitting in front of him now should not be him but the person who rides a dragon and flies in the sky all day long. of angels.
It is estimated that the dragon will also come down and shoot a healing current cannon at his master, and also express some disdain for Valentine.
Typical pride...
Roar--!
The dark blue flying dragon flapping its wings in the sky seemed to notice something. It turned its head to look in the direction of the two people sitting on the ground and opened its mouth wide. In the sky, an extremely thick thunder flashed, followed by a deafening dragon roar.
Valentine’s back spirit’s exclusive dragon roar, with +200 decibels and lightning special effects.
Although I am very afraid of Jiao Zhengyu, I still need to roar twice to gain momentum. After all, he is a dragon.
They all love face.
Holy Light Raphael noticed the emotional change of the dark blue flying dragon, lowered his body and gently stroked the scales on his neck, just like she once stroked Valentine's hair. Almost instantly, the anger in Feilong's heart disappeared, his slender neck was raised and twisted slightly, and the sound in his throat was no longer harsh, turning into a purr like a kitten.
Jiao Zhengyu gave the Weapon Angel a thumbs up in his heart, and at the same time he understood why Xing Yihuang lost so miserably.
"Practice more in the future and turn off the pain nerves before suffering fatal injuries and you'll be fine."
Although what he was thinking about was how to get his somewhat naive agent to quickly enter Wei Wendi mode, Zheng Yu could still have a normal conversation with him.
He still has a lot of Xing Yihuang stocks in his hand that he hasn't sold yet. What if this guy really gets the idea and goes to Raphael for the first time?
"Wouldn't that allow me to accurately grasp my own situation?" Valentine put down the hand covering his left eye, revealing his light red eyes.
Almost exactly the same as the Razer, very beautiful and no damage.
Jiao Zhengyu understood what Valentine meant. In fact, many people feel that there is no need for pain. After all, no one likes the devastating feedback of "pain", especially those children who hate injections. But in fact, this feeling is very useful. Putting aside the advanced medical knowledge, the early warning function alone is enough to prevent this pain nerve from being eliminated in the millions of years of human evolution.
Pain can make people understand what is dangerous and avoid them before the situation is irreversible. If there is no pain, one may have his arm amputated even if he sleeps.
"You're stupid, I don't want you to be locked up all the time." Jiao Zhengyu raised his hand and tapped Valentin's head gently, and flicked his tail behind him.
"And your Origin Stone skills are getting stronger now, aren't they? With that shot just now, you should be sitting here talking to me with a bleak face about what will happen after you die, not now You can also chat happily.”
Two years ago at Buttermore, Valentine suffered a fatal injury. A chainsaw cut open his back, and the wound was so deep that the bones were visible. He was punched in the heart by Jiao Zhengyu's words in the mental space, and finally found the taste of anger after a long absence, and used the knife in his hand to actively open up a way to survive in this world for the first time.
What now? Valentine was shot in the eye, and the bullet shattered and rushed into his skull, leaving him just a millimeter away from death. But in an instant, the Originium skill in his body reacted. The cells in his eyes began to proliferate in large numbers, and the rejection reaction of the nerves in the orbit also began to operate, directly extruding the warhead fragments embedded in the flesh from the body. What followed was a The whole process of generating a brand new eyeball took less than a minute. After the eyeball returned to its original shape, Valentin didn't even react. He still lay on the ground and stared at his right eye, pretending to be dead. Xing Yihuang almost shot the eyeball. The murderer was punched to death.
If Valentine had woken up later, he would probably have seen the bloody scene of Xing Yihuang kneeling on the ground and hitting his head with his fist.
"Yes, and what I just saw."
After listening to Jiao Zhengyu's words, Valentin remembered what he had seen just before his eyes were blown out.
And the phrase "What did you see?"
"Is this what you said?"
Jiao Zhengyu knew what he was asking, and Valentin didn't say much, just pointed at his head. It's just that his expression is a little strange, as if he is saying that the guy opposite has something wrong with his brain.
"No, it should be a message sent to you by your subconscious mind."
Jiao Zhengyu shook his head.
"Actually, this function has already been developed when you enter Amiya's death space. That space is like a catalyst. Although you don't know how to use it, it's like holding the catalyst like a baboon in a chemical experiment. It's the same as yelling at the test tube to give me a quick reaction, but something in the catalyst still 'dropped' into the test tube, causing your ability to react."
Just like Valentine's action, Jiao Zhengyu's words also mocked the other party intentionally or unintentionally.
"It's just that the reaction was too slow, so it just sped up a little bit. It was so slow that you couldn't notice it. That is, when there was a sudden explosion when you were just threatened with death, you saw the results."
"Pressure is motivation, and death that can be touched with your hands is always the best source of motivation."
"So……"
Valentine narrowed his eyes and frowned. He was thinking about what he saw just before his eyeball was blown out. A fireball as big as a watermelon, a Sourcestone-etched warhead so close that it almost occupies the entire field of view, and...
There is also the expression on the face of the shooter, the corners of her trembling and crazily raised mouth, staring into her eyes, the sweat on her forehead, and the constantly accelerating heartbeat. Everything illustrates this guy's fear and fear. carefree.
"I can actually see the smile on her face? And her eyes? Although she is smiling, her eyes are full of terror as if she has seen an evil ghost... Her whole expression is as if she was so frightened by me. It’s like being crazy when you suddenly remember that you have a gun and can kill people.”
Valentine suddenly remembered the live action of some horror games he had watched. Generally speaking, the protagonist was chased and beaten by ghosts throughout the whole process. At the end, when he got the gun, he finally broke down and turned around to face the ghost, bang bang bang. In the end, he found that he was killed. It's a bloody plot about my own family.
"Now that I think about this guy hating me so much, I just knocked down an integration sentry with a long sword. The sword was not sharpened and there was no blood on the ground. As for such a big reaction."
Valentine felt wronged.
"If she keeps trying, she probably won't be able to get out of Qicheng. You don't want to know what happened to the school after you let the Ursus Three Bears leave the school."
Jiao Zhengyu compared this world with the main plot of Arknights, and found out several points that were contrary to the main plot. One of the plots included the Three Bears of Ursus.
In the world where Valentine lives, the three Ursus bears did not meet the other three bears, and they did not experience the campus battle royale that dehumanized them. All this was because of Valentine's order that day.
I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, whether the early dew of hot summer wormwood will intersect with the cold winter of Gumi truth...
But at least for now, these three bears have not experienced that battle royale and are mentally healthy, which is a good development.
"But it's a pity that she fell into my hands today."
Valentine rubbed his eyes. The pain from the bullet hitting his left eye seemed to have not dissipated.
"So, what I just saw is actually similar to Amiya's ability to read minds? Can I also see other people's emotions?"
This is a good development, but the conditions for obtaining this ability are a bit uncomfortable, and you have to die once.
"It's almost the same, but your ability still hasn't caught up with Amiya. Not only can she see other people's emotions, she can also feel them and control them."
"And it's not just emotions, you also said, it's mind reading."
Slender fingers touched Valentin's chest. He lowered his head and looked at Jiao Zhengyu's stretched out hand, feeling a little ambiguous.
"do not think too much."
"good."
Breaking the power in an instant.
"My Origin Stone skills are really amazing. I was a medical warlock at first, and now I have become a magician? How interesting."
Valentin pinched his chin and stared at Jiao Zhengyu's face, trying to regain the feeling he had when he saw the shooter's emotions. Just like walking, he soon grabbed the line in the void, and Jiao Zhengyu's face also changed.
The corners of his mouth began to rise, and his chin slowly lifted up. His eyes looking at Valentine were full of arrogance, and he looked down at the little dragon man in front of him with a condescending look.
"Dry."
Valentin quickly turned off his kaleidoscope and raised his middle finger to Jiao Zhengyu who was laughing in front of him.
"It's time to go out."
He rolled his eyes and stood up.
"Be gentle to her, she is a beautiful girl after all."
Jiao Zhengyu was still sitting where he was, and just waved to Valentine.
"If she hadn't fired that shot, I would have knocked her out very gently, tied her up and thrown her into a small dark room, waiting for the Guards Bureau to come and arrest her. If I had met her in a normal environment, I might have turned around and looked twice. .”
Although the face that Valentin saw just now is very beautiful, it cannot be denied that the shooter's appearance is definitely above the average, and is better than those walking on the street who are overwhelmed by life. Ordinary girls are much better.
"But now, I have changed my mind."
Valentine suddenly remembered a very interesting way to play, which was extremely exciting.
"Can you provide rental services here?"
He looked at Jiao Zhengyu and suddenly asked.
"Why don't you provide source stones to earn money?"
Jiao Zhengyu's traitorous nature was fully exposed.
"..."
Valentin thought for a while and felt that it would be better for him to choose another way of playing.
"Don't worry, it's very cheap. Renting is not buying. The price is very low. Just a few Origin Stone fragments will do."
A small pure source stone appeared in Jiao Zhengyu's hand. This is the aggregation of Origin Stone that Valentin ate that day. It was purified by Jiao Zhengyu into the purest Origin Stone. It is very beautiful. Because I bought an ability and a gun, the size of this source stone has become half of its original size. He stretched out his fingers, and his nails instantly grew into a sharp blade. He slashed at the source stone, and a little bit of debris fell into his hand.
"The things you asked for are put in the girl's weapon ring, as well as some supporting products."
Although Jiao Zhengyu is a profiteer, his service is still extremely professional and the speed is unimaginable.
"Have a great time."
Looking at Valentine whose figure gradually became transparent, Jiao Zhengyu stood up and bowed slightly, carrying out the moral code of a conscientious and profiteer to the end.
————————The happy hour is about to begin————————
Gantry, slums, stronghold of the integration movement.
This is a closed room, the windows are closed, not revealing a trace of light. There was only one incandescent lamp on in the room, hanging in the air and shaking slightly, emitting a somewhat dim light. The decoration in the room is very simple. There are a few posters on the wall with the slogans of the integration movement. Other than that, there is only a clock. The furniture is as simple as the decorations. There is only a table and two chairs. One of the chairs was moved by Valentine from another room. Now he is sitting on that chair with his legs crossed and his feet on the table. On the scene, his expressions and movements are extremely arrogant. Another chair was placed on the other side of the table, opposite to Valentine. Sitting on it was the integration soldier who had just shot Valentine with a pistol. His hands and feet were tied together, but he made no move to break free. , looks extremely quiet.
Although the soldier's hands and feet were tied, they were not tied to the chair, so some basic movements were still possible. But now she didn't make any movement, she just sat there and looked at Valentine quietly through the two small holes in the mask, which made him a little confused.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s good not to resist, and it saves a lot of trouble.
The soldier didn't speak, and neither did Valentine. He just put his feet down on the table, pulled up his chair, and brought himself closer to the table. The clock ticked, becoming the only sound in this silent room.
"Where did this gun and bullets come from?"
Valentine picked up an Originium bullet placed on the table and looked at it carefully, breaking the tranquility. Under the dim light, the smooth shell of the bullet reflected orange light, allowing him to see clearly what the bullet looked like.
Different from the bullets of Raphael's Guardian Gun that he had seen before, the bullets used in this revolver were very special, and the difference from other bullets could be seen at a glance - there was no warhead.
In other words, the warhead was buried in the cartridge case.
The bullet is about 4 centimeters long and is orange-yellow in color, just like the brass-cased bullets from Earth. Although the warhead is buried in the bullet case, Valentine can still see the situation inside through the light. The warhead is also the biggest difference between the bullets in the world of Terra and the bullets on Earth. Earth's bullets are made of metal just like cartridge cases. Some special bullet types will also work on the material of the warhead, but they are still metal after all.
This Originium bullet is different. Its warhead is an Originium, or in other words, a metal bullet mixed with Originium fragments. Just like a city wall whose hardness and toughness is greatly increased after being mixed with Originium particles, adding Originium to the bullet can also enhance the power of the bullet, and the more Originium ingredients are added, the more powerful the bullet will be. powerful. Raphael once told Valentine about the types of bullets. Those bullets that simply use metal bullets are the cheapest and are powerful enough for ordinary people. However, when encountering some with thicker armor or those using Originium skills, Barriers are a bit difficult, and warheads with Originium fragments added are much stronger than ordinary metal bullets in terms of hardness and toughness, and they also have better penetration into armor. As for those Originium-etched bullets, they are the most advanced bullets. They have strong penetrating power against physical armor and Originium technology barriers. They are equivalent to armor-piercing bullets on Earth. Jessica's hand gun uses this kind of bullet. .
But this kind of bullet also has a disadvantage, that is, it is expensive. Moreover, warheads that are too strong can also cause great damage to the rifling. Compared with those guns that use ordinary bullets, the lifespan of guns that have been using Sourcestone-etched bullets is hundreds or thousands of rounds shorter. This is also The reason why Originium-etched bullets are only toys for the rich.
Bullets are expensive, and firearms are even more expensive. The combination of the two is a waste of money.
At the same time, Originium-etched bullets also have the same problem as armor-piercing bullets on Earth, that is, they are not effective against unarmored personnel. This is an armor-piercing bullet, specially designed to deal with body armor. When used against enemies without body armor, Originium-etched bullets will have only one outcome:
Over worn.
But bullets are bullets after all, and they can still kill people. It’s just that they can accidentally injure innocent passers-by if they pass through...
Well, the people who use this kind of bullets are all rich people anyway, so they can still afford the medical expenses, right?
So, is the warhead of this countersunk bullet an ordinary bullet or an Originium-etched bullet? Valentin didn't know, because Raphael didn't tell him how to distinguish these types of bullets at that time, and she just said a few words. However, judging from the light reflected by the warhead, it contains a lot of Originium components.
After all, the source stone is very beautiful, and the reflected light is brighter than ordinary metal.
As for the runner, Valentine didn't recognize it when he first saw it, but after figuring out the bullets, he also knew what its prototype on Earth was.
Unlike this ancient bullet, the appearance of this revolver gun has not left any traces of time. However, compared to new-world spinners like the S&W.500, this spinner is more like an old man putting on new clothes and rejuvenating himself.
The gun is overall black, and there are two long grooves on the top of the barrel. Although it is not as sharp and angular as the modified S&W.500 revolver in Jiao Zhengyu's hand, it is not rounded either. The handle of the hand gun is also black, but the patches on both sides are white. It doesn't feel rough when held in the hand, it is smooth and gentle, like a kind of jade or ivory. Valentine didn't know what material the patch on the handle of this gun was made of, but he was sure it was definitely not cheap.
On the whole, this gun has lost its old-fashioned character at the beginning and has been put on a brand new skin, facing this ever-changing world with a brand new look. Even though it is old at heart, its performance is still excellent.
The prototype of that bullet on Earth is the 7.62*38mmR Nagantsey bullet, while the prototype of the revolver on Earth is the Soviet TOZ-36 revolver. The prototype of this TOZ-36 is the prestigious Nagant M1895 revolver.
However, compared to the barrel length and handle length of the prototype TOZ-36, this revolver is smaller and looks like the "commander" type of TOZ-36, although the TOZ-36 does not have a "command" type. "member" type. Moreover, this gun also uses a patch that looks extremely precious. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an honorary weapon.
I just don’t know whether the owner of this gun obtained this weapon because of his military exploits or simply bought it because he had more money.
"This gun belonged to my father, and he ran away. To save my life, I took it and the bullets away."
The integrated movement soldier who had been silent finally spoke in a calm tone, as if the long silence had allowed her to adjust her mood.
"noble?"
Valentine played with the revolver in his hand and threw out its bullet chamber.
Well, it's no different from the revolvers on Earth.
"right."
The soldier nodded and admitted the fact frankly.
"Didn't all the nobles run away in advance? As a noble child, you didn't go with them?"
He became angry when he thought of those Qicheng government staff.
"Only some high-ranking people among the orthodox nobles left early, and they didn't even notify us. Most of the people who evacuated that day were serving nobles, and we didn't notice anything strange until the integration movement captured Checheng. My father He is just a Viscount, and his position in this city is neither high nor low, so it is not important."
The soldier's voice was lifeless.
"I was still in school at that time, and my father didn't come to pick me up, until now."
"I returned home after running out, but the place was in a mess. Most of the valuables were gone. But fortunately, they didn't find the gun. I took it with me and was about to leave this hell, but I encountered a natural disaster .”
Flames and Origin Stones fell from the sky, the air was filled with the pungent smell of sulfur and blood, and the sounds of explosions and screams surrounded the ears. Anfiya clenched the gun in her hand and embarked on the path of survival she chose.
