Luo Ling sat in his rental house in the North Territory all night. It was a night without any stories, sober and without thinking, in a quiet daze, until the faint noise coming from outside the house told him that another early morning had arrived.
Being in a daze is not a confusion about life, but a kind of fatigue. Luo Ling occasionally likes this feeling like a sudden power outage in a machine. All the sense of mission, responsibility, life, and survival pressure are all thrown away at once, and everything is gone.
Don't think about it. For him, it's more relaxing than sleep.
Luo Ling can no longer remember how long it has been since he had a real sleep. Sleeping has no meaning to him. Whenever it is late at night and his wife is asleep in his arms, Luo Ling will pass the time by practicing or thinking. He has something that everyone has.
In addition, many people do not have, or in other words, do not have such a strong sense of crisis. Therefore, from a behavioral perspective, Luo Ling is quite diligent, like a worker bee.
Coming out of the rental house, Luo Ling joined the hurried flow of people. For most human survivors, life is much more difficult now than four years ago. Standard working hours are 14 hours, no rest days, and the income of one person
It is barely enough for a family of three to survive. The goal of people's daily efforts is no longer to be well-off, but to survive.
Ironically, in such a social environment, very few people commit suicide. Maybe people have seen too much blood, maybe they have realized the value of life in the massacres invaded by demons, or maybe people
It's just a creature that doesn't know how to care for it. The more carefully it is taken care of, the more fragile it becomes. After being tortured by life, it becomes very tough.
Once upon a time, when Luo Ling was walking among the crowd, he would have a sense of superiority as he had the power of life and death. But now, he has passed the exciting period of getting rich overnight. He knows what he wants and wants, and he is busy with making a living.
There are too many differences between ordinary people. He and they can't talk to each other or get along with each other. It's hard for their fates to intersect. Even if they happen to get together, Luo Ling can't do anything other than play cool, benevolent and violent.
He knew what else he could bring to them. Perhaps because of this, Luo Ling had almost no nostalgia for the human community. Just like before, he shuttled through the crowd with an indifference that ignored everything around him, and then entered a house.
clothing store.
In addition to selling ready-made clothes, the clothing store also offers custom-made and darned clothing services. Luo Ling came here to take back the darned smock he sent yesterday.
This smock is in the shape of a raincoat with white spots on a gray background. It is a wide elephant robe with no sleeves and a hood. It is hand-sewn by Xing Juan. Luo Ling will wear it every time he goes hunting in his original identity to cover up the gorgeousness of the armor.
It has a certain camouflage stealth effect. More importantly, it represents a warm concern.
"Sir, here are your darned clothes, 5 palladium." Behind the counter, a capable middle-aged man with a shiny mustache smiled and folded the darned blouse in front of Luo Ling, and finally put it into a handbag.
.
Luo Ling noticed this man as soon as he entered the door. This man was not the receptionist who greeted him when he came yesterday. More importantly, Luo Ling was sure that he was a third-level soldier.
Taking the handbag, Luo Ling said in a calm tone: "It seems that being the front desk of a clothing store is a very attractive job."
"It's just an occasional cameo." The middle-aged man still smiled and looked back at Luo Ling with a calm gaze. "I have been entrusted to convey a message to you: watch your back."
Luo Ling twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Oh, this is obviously a kind reminder."
The middle-aged man didn't mind the contempt in Luo Ling's tone and demeanor, "My client hopes you can seriously consider it." As he spoke, he magically turned a thin silver-gray card out of his hand and handed it over. "'
You only do business and don't talk about relationships.' This client appreciates your attitude towards doing things."
Luo Ling recognized that what the middle-aged man handed over was a flash memory card with a capacity ranging from 10 to 40g. It was mainly suitable for popular handheld readers and was plug-and-play. He took it and turned it over between his fingers a few times.
, Yang Yang said: "I will pay enough attention to it."
Luo Ling was not sure when this profession of war broker began, but he had heard about the various activities he was engaged in. A war broker came to him at this time and conveyed a warning message on behalf of an unknown force.
Full of information, Luo Ling certainly wouldn't think that this was just out of concern. "This operation is becoming more and more interesting..." He whistled softly.
After coming out of the clothing store, Luo Ling first went to the material exchange, then the firearms store, and the magic props store to purchase enough ammunition and props. Then he went to the bathing center, where Luo Ling received the message from Qin Qing, Baishen
A large number of people have arrived.
Two and a half of the four new teammates actually knew each other, which was a little surprise for Luo Ling. First of all, it was Bao Si. This Enreyes witch seemed to be a workaholic.
It was a great event, this time she was still representing Budweiser, and she became very close to Luo Ling as soon as she saw her. Her clinging energy can be described as the dew that comes after a long drought.
The second one is Zhang Min, a serious lich. Although his body is a mummy version of a strong man, with Luo Ling's innate ability to look directly into the soul, he can still recognize his true identity even if he turns into a trilobite.
.
The other half is Wang Duo, a pretty boy who thinks very highly of himself and is always ready to raise his chin to the sky. Not to mention Luo Ling, even Bao Si doesn't know what clone number Wang Duo is. Luo Ling also doesn't know about this.
Not interested. He just has some differences. This Wang Duo and the Wang Duo who died in the illusion of Earthsea have the same look and temperament.
"If even memories and personalities can be cloned, wouldn't this also become a manifestation of immortality?" Luo Ling thought, if there was a chance, should he capture a Wang Duo and see if he could get some out of it?
Important information.
The last person representing Zhongxing Technology Company is a technology engineer. She is female, tall and strong, about 185cm tall and weighs over 80kg. She is full of muscles that can make a man look ashamed, plus a pair of breasts and a pair of big hands.
With a pair of big feet, carrying a huge sword, and smearing some paint on her face, it would be easy for people to misunderstand her as a barbarian woman who came from another world. What’s even more interesting is that this woman is actually named Luo Lin. To avoid calling her by mistake,
, as a last resort, the temporary team finally decided to temporarily give Luo Ling and Luo Lin the codenames, Luo Nan and Luo Nu.
Luo Lin brought two weapons to Luo Ling, which were gifts customized for Luo Ling by Xuanyuan Bupo. They were both guns. One of them was called the 'Battleship Firepower', which was 178cm long and weighed 71.5kg. It could be carried on the shoulder or on the shoulder.
However, it looks like a small laser cannon, but in fact its power is indeed unparalleled. This gun has broken away from the category of ordinary gunpowder weapons. It shoots high-quality and dense lead bullets. The entire gun body is almost a precision
The acceleration device is driven by a magic energy battery. The maximum firing frequency is 2 seconds. The maximum range is more than 5000 meters. The optimal range is 50-3000 meters. It can easily penetrate the side armor of ordinary armored vehicles at a distance of 4000 meters. After Luo Ling got the relevant data, he became suspicious.
Is this an airborne weapon removed from a new fighter jet?
The other gun is called the 'Zodiac', a twelve-barreled internal and external double-revolving machine gun with a maximum rate of fire of 8,000 rounds per minute. The bullets are steel balls, discharged in tandem, with a space box magazine, driven by magic energy, with a maximum range of 1,000 meters.
, the best range is 5-700 meters, it is also very large, 150cm long, 45kg total weight, two space box magazine, and 32,000 ammunition storage.
"If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. You are our trustworthy remote support." Xuanyuan Bupo said sincerely. However, Bao Si secretly curled her lips at the side, "Giving these two things to show off, it's really cool.
If our little Lingling shows off his power, you standard team members will have to go to the corner to hide your faces in shame and cry."
Of course, Luo Ling didn't know that Bao Si had already set him as the ultimate target that must be 'obtained'. These two weapons are indeed very cool, but with the personal combat power of this group of people, it would be fine for him to use weapons of this level.
Lining. Luo Ling thanked him and accepted the gift readily. Along with it, there was a 50-cubic space ring filled with parts, maintenance equipment and ammunition. Specially customized weapons, which are not available in ordinary gun stores.
Parts cannot be repaired without ammunition. Therefore, these parts and so on are indispensable.
"Three hours to prepare, and then we set off." The captain this time is Xuanyuan Bupo, and his deputy Qin Qing. Bao Si only found out that Luo Ling was participating, so she replaced another participant and joined the team.
Since the members of the action team are all extremely successful people, they need to coordinate and carry very little common equipment. The lowest ones carry two 50-cubic space rings. Among them, Luo Ling is the most exaggerated, with three space boxes in a row.
Including the magazine, the total space value is as high as 280 cubic meters, which is more than enough for a moving company. What individual combat preparation materials cannot be accommodated?
At 13:40 noon, the seven people took the variable-wing helicopter purchased by the base to go to their destination. 20 minutes later, they successfully arrived at Guang'an Airport.
Luo Ling has not been to Guang'an Airport for more than half a year. When he first met this time, he almost didn't recognize him. There were ice crystals, icicles, and ice cubes everywhere. A series of buildings in the airport were frozen and submerged in it, and they were almost helpless.
The original appearance can be seen. The ice seems to be made of dirty and dirty water. It is opaque and non-reflective. At first glance, it looks like a jungle full of rock thorns, full of sharpness everywhere.
The originally broad square in front of the main entrance of the airport main building has now been completely replaced by clusters of ice spikes, and the unowned cars that were originally parked are now hanging on the ice spikes or stuck in the cracks like corpses, and there are
They were frozen in the ice, and each one seemed to have been severely rubbed by big hands. Their shape was distorted and ugly.
A corridor more than 300 meters long, made of ice thorns diagonally, leads to the main entrance of the airport hall. The light in the corridor is dim, coupled with the howling cold wind, it looks quite deep and quiet.
Luo Ling, who was holding the 'Twelve Palaces' in a special armor-mounted bracket, stepped forward and flicked one of the ice spikes with his fingers, then turned to ask Xuanyuan Bupo: "When did this Ice Spear Jungle appear?"
"Seven days ago, when the sixth group of ground personnel was evacuated, there were still none."
Bao Si used telepathy to ask Luo Ling: "Did you find anything? Was it the guy Shalu who did it?"
"No, although Cellul is proficient in the ice system, he is not a dirty ice."
At the same time, Xuanyuan Bupo also asked a similar question: "Is there any special discovery?"
"I have heard before that some monsters have a very special ice ability. The ice element is mixed with earth and darkness, which is called the mixed ice element. The ice element can only use the water element, but mixed ice can
Use water, earth and darkness."
"In other words, in the same magic environment, mixed ice magicians are more likely to activate magic and are more powerful?" Qin Qing asked in the final topic.
"Exactly."
"Is this a manifestation of compound magic?" Rowling asked worriedly.
"It's not compound magic. Compound magic is a technique that refines two or more elements and combines two or more elements of magic together. What we see now is the manifestation of the innate ability of 'Magic Omnivore'."
"Demon Omnivore?"
"Through abnormal means, elemental affinity is obtained. There are primary and secondary elements, and the method of using elements is not mental control, but inhalation."
"Aren't they just potential enemies with special talents? If you see them and kill them, why bother sharpening them here?" This Wang Duo is carrying a pair of black swords, one long and one short. The shape of the sword is very similar to that of a samurai sword.
And the knife is taken from the left and right sides (the handle of the knife is at the bottom, and it is taken from near the back waist).
"The knife is different, but the mouth smells the same!" Luo Ling said sarcastically. She didn't bother to look at him.
This time Wang Duo did not have the status of a special envoy, nor did he have so many super elite subordinates. Bao Si was not interested in him at all. She came specially for Luo Ling and always approached Luo Ling intentionally or unintentionally, even standing there
Most of the locations were right next to Luo Ling. If it weren't for the occasion, she would have walked around holding Luo Ling's arm as before.
Zhang Minchen, whose pseudonym is Cao Fang (艹方=Fang, the name of his sister), seems to be the most silent and withdrawn. Apart from exchanging names when they first met, he has not said a word until now. When people talk here, he has already
He muttered something in his mouth, and pointed his right hand with the pale bone gauntlet to the ground, and a black mud hole turned into snow and appeared. In the mud hole, the mud rolled, and eight clay figures climbed up one after another. Cao Fang took out a slender bone tube.
, pulled out the cork and raised it, eight black smoke souls flew out, and after circling around, they one after another possessed the clay figures.
Before the possession, the clay figures had heads and no faces. After the possession, the facial features were condensed and each one was different. Cao Fang popped out a few more bone seeds wrapped in the fluorescent green magic light. After the bone seeds were submerged in the clay figure's body, they sprouted like vines.
Branches sprouted, and within ten seconds the clay figurine was wrapped tightly around it.
The dead soul bone servant of the secret technique holds a bone spur sword, a bone spur buckler, and is covered in bone armor, full of sharp thorns with dark green tips that are highly poisonous.
Cao Fang pointed with his hand, and six bone servants entered the ice gun corridor, running and leaping all the way, as fast as a monkey, heading straight for the main entrance of the airport.
As soon as the Bone Servant ran to the middle of the corridor, the forest of ice spears on both sides of the corridor suddenly began to stir, and the ice spikes grew at a speed of 2 meters per second. The original corridor immediately turned into a three-dimensional gear formed by countless ice spikes.
The effect was as if two maces were spinning close together. The bone spur sword could not break the dirty ice at all, and it was even too late to run. It was like being put into a crusher. It broke into a pile of six pieces in a few times.
The black smoke-like dead soul escaped, wandered back, and was put into the bone cylinder by Cao Fang.
Wang Duo walked to the edge of the Ice Spear Jungle, unsheathed his black sword, and slashed seventeen times in an instant. Qi Sensen cut off dozens of ice spikes, but after one second, those ice spikes grew to their original length, and continued to grow crazily, until they were longer than the original length.
It turned out to be twice as thick and twice as long. What's even more amazing is that the ice thorns that fell to the ground immediately took root and sprouted, turning into several new clusters of ice thorn bushes, like dwarf shrubs. Wang Duo swiped a knife, and the dwarf shrubs immediately turned into small bushes.
, and after a few more cuts, the small bush was almost as thick as other Ice Spear Jungles.
Wang Duo retreated with a dark face. He had already calculated that if he entered the ice spike corridor, it would be impossible to completely protect himself with the speed of his sword. Then, he would be crushed by these ice blades that are harder than steel.
After squeezing and biting it, it probably won't take many times before it ends up like those bone servants. After all, no matter how awesome the armor is, it can't be rolled back and forth in a crusher and still remain intact.
"The nearby magic power has been sucked in by the Ice Spear Jungle." Cao Fang finally spoke, his voice was like torn rags, dry and hoarse, and smelled of dust.
Bao Si said: "The speed of 'pain growth' in this mixed ice ice spear jungle is more than twice that of the ordinary ice spear jungle, and the earth attribute strengthens the hardness of the ice spikes, and the dark attribute strengthens the vitality of the ice spikes."
"So the light energy is effective on these ice spikes?" Qin Qing asked.
"It can only suppress vitality to a certain extent."
"Light and fire." Rowling clapped the weapon in her hand, 'Fire Dragon', a thrower-type weapon. It looks like a sci-fi version of the wind-powered fire extinguisher in the past. It is actually an evolved version of the flamethrower. It uses magic energy to save fuel.
, fire element attack, 0-100 meter attack range, burning for 1 second, core flame temperature 9000.
"No!" Cao Fang denied.
Bao Si also nodded and said: "This Ice Spear Jungle is too big, and the magic-absorbing regeneration speed is too fast. Moreover, it may cause a long-term low-magic area. Cao Fang and I will suffer because of this."
