Chapter 127 Hole Cards
Seventh District, Extraordinary Tower, 25 floors.

……

……

"Hello, my name is Qi Delong."

After Lin Chuan pushed open the bedroom door, the imagined battle did not happen. Instead, he was greeted with a very elegant smile and an outstretched hand.

"Hi, my name is Lin Chuan."

Lin Chuan held Qi Delong's hand subconsciously, and then looked at his new roommate seriously.

A three-piece black suit with a white shirt and black tie, which is the most serviceable, did not affect Qi Delong's elegance at all. Even for such a simple handshake, he seemed to have calculated it. Bend a beautiful arc.

But if this suit is worn on Jing Xuan's body, it is no different from the bodyguards in old movies.

It's just that in the hot summer of July, just looking at Qi Delong's appearance, Lin Chuan felt an indescribable sense of heat.

Lin Chuan lowered his head, looked at the flip-flops on his feet, and the wrinkled cotton shorts on his legs, and immediately felt a strong sense of contrast.

After the two greeted each other, the bedroom fell into a long silence. After a long time, Qi Delong frowned and took a step forward.

The spirits surrounding Lin Chuan immediately hid towards Lin Chuan neatly like a frightened rabbit.

But just after Lin Chuan was ready to face the battle, Qi Delong said a little awkwardly:

"I feel like you are a little nervous, is there something I did wrong?"

Qi Delong's performance gave Lin Chuan an inexplicable sense of separation, as if he was facing a very dangerous beast, but the beast asked him cautiously, what did he do wrong... …

"...No, it's my own problem."

Lin Chuan groaned uncomfortably for two seconds before waving his hands and explaining.

Seeing Lin Chuan's strange expression, Qi Delong bit his nails nervously. After tasting a little sweetness, he finally calmed down, and then said quickly:

"I'm sorry, this is the first time I have come to such a far place. I read in the book that roommates in the same dormitory are the most important friends in people's life, so if I do something wrong, please You must tell me, I... want to be your friend."

"Chuan'er, Jiang Yang has something to tell you."

Before Lin Chuan could reply this time, Jing Xuan walked into the dormitory carelessly. After handing Lin Chuan the phone, he found Qi Delong. He reached out naturally and called the new roommate. Say hello:

"Hey, hello, my name is Jingxuan."

"Ah...ah, hello, hello, my name is Qi Delong."

Qi Delong was stunned for a moment, then quickly stretched out his hand, and held Jing Xuan. After shaking hands, a blush flashed across the face of this elegant young man.

Jing Xuan raised his eyebrows, and teased cheaply:
"Qi Delong? Do you have a brother named Qi Dongqiang?"

"Qi Dongqiang? No...I have always lived alone, why do you ask such a question?"

Qi Delong thought about it seriously, and after confirming that he really didn't know Qi Dongqiang, he gave a serious response.

Jing Xuan rubbed his face dumbfounded, it would be too embarrassing to explain this kind of homophonic joke.

But looking at Qi Delong's clear eyes, he didn't know how to perfunctory, so he could only look at Lin Chuan for help.

"Huh? Say, ah, yes, yes."

But Lin Chuan went out with the phone in his hands, he didn't mean to rescue Jing Xuan at all.

He believed that he was sensitive to killing intent, and after being in contact with Qi Delong for so long, he didn't feel any killing intent from this elegant young man, so he safely left this mess to Jing Xuan.

With no choice but to sigh, Jing Xuan explained with a sullen face:

"Actually, it's just a very tasteless joke, Qi Delong, Qi Dongqiang, together they are 'Qi's Long Dongqiang'..."

Jing Xuan's tasteless joke made the atmosphere in the dormitory chill down immediately.

"..."

"..."

However, the awkward atmosphere was quickly broken by a sudden burst of laughter.

"Hahahahahaha..."

Qi Delong didn't maintain his elegant image anymore, but couldn't stop patting his thigh, laughing so hard that tears almost flowed out.

Jing Xuan looked at him with dull eyes, not knowing what to do for a while.

……

After Lin Chuan hung up Jiang Yang's phone outside the dormitory, he found a bench on the overpass, sank his consciousness into the altar, called Ling An, and asked seriously:
"What's the situation with that Zidron?"

Ling put the tablet aside, pushed his glasses, and said solemnly:
"Old Ancestor, that person has a very strong smell of blood. I instinctively don't want to approach him, but if I approach him secretly, I will easily get lost."

Darkly retorted with some displeasure:
"It's not lost, it's just that there is a dangerous sense of familiarity. I am afraid of the risk of being assimilated so I take the initiative to avoid it."

"Well, let's do this for the time being. Just now, Jiang Yang called to say that there is a lack of exchangeable materials at the Lingyin Company. The frequency of issuing tasks to the Lingyin host can be slowed down. The cultivation of the Lingyin host is a long-term matter, so don't act too hastily. .”

The expression of spirit and darkness did not help Lin Chuan much, so he quickly put aside Qi Delong's research for the time being, and gave instructions about the host of spirit darkness.

Anyway, Qi Delong will live in the same dormitory with him, and it's better to keep the danger by his side than in a place where he can't see it.

In contrast, the news brought by Jiang Yang is more important.

The distance from the eighth district to the seventh district is too far, and Lin Chuan has no way to let Lingyin build a spiritual energy network connecting the two safe areas, so the spirit dark hosts in the eighth district are currently in a state of stocking.

The Dark Soul Clone has great autonomy over the hosts of the Dark Soul System. Once the Dark Soul releases tasks too frequently, in the short term it can quickly improve the strength of the Dark Soul host, but in the long run, it will Squeezing the potential of the dark host.

What Lin Chuan wants is a solid combat power. The hosts in the eighth district are Lin Chuan's primitive accumulation, the seeds.

So the most important thing right now is to let Ling An adjust the way of cultivating the host.

"Don't worry, Patriarch. Although I haven't been able to build a spiritual energy network for real-time communication, An and I have teamed up to build a spiritual energy communication tower. The news from the main body can be transmitted in just a few minutes."

Ling turned on the tablet computer that never left his hand, projected a map of the eighth to seventh districts, and marked the location of the Lingqi communication tower on it.

When taking the intercity air rail, Lin Chuan threw a lot of spirit stones along the way according to Lingyin's intention, and those spirit stones were the base stations of Lingyin's avatar.

On weekdays, those dark avatars will be in a state of silent and deep sleep, and will only be activated when transmitting information, so their own consumption is very small, and they can exist for a long time with the spiritual power supplemented by the spirit stone.

"Well, let's get ready, there is a big project for you in a while."

Lin Chuan responded, ignored An's flattery, and directly exited the altar and walked to the dormitory.

……

"Why are technicians spiritual mentors?"

"Tsk, that's a long story..."

When Lin Chuan entered, Jing Xuan and Qi Delong were chatting happily. Qi Delong was like a curious baby, always waiting for Jing Xuan with countless questions.

It's just that Lin Chuan's head is full of black lines. There is nothing wrong with this harmonious atmosphere, but the topic of the two of them is really out of the question...

"I have something to go out, so call me if you have something to do."

Lin Chuan threw the phone to Jing Xuan, and before leaving the dormitory, he still nodded to Qi Delong.

After Lin Chuan walked away, Qi Delong asked worriedly:
"Is there something wrong with me? I always feel that Lin Chuan is a little cold..."

"If you think too much, he's just like that. Let me tell you about the spiritual mentor."

……

Chaofan Tower, like other buildings, has an air rail station on the 33rd floor. After Lin Chuan swiped his bracelet to confirm his identity, he took the air rail to the suburbs of the seventh district.

It was only the first day of enrollment, and Lin Chuan tasted the sweetness brought by the status of an extraordinary student-free empty tracks.

No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, it is still meat. Although Lin Chuan no longer needs to worry about money, the saving habit in his DNA at that moment will not be easily changed.

Sitting on the empty track, Lin Chuan sat in the corner, playing with the bracelet on his hand, suddenly feeling a little ridiculous.

A day ago, he didn't dare to go out, but now with this gadget, the seventh district has become his real safe zone.

The safety of extraordinary students is built by the college and the committee with bloody hunts, so even if Lin Chuan openly walks into the Liang family now, the Liang family can only thank the guests behind closed doors and swallow all their anger.

[The Federation Council sent a congratulatory message to the Extraordinary Academy in the seventh district, congratulating the Extraordinary Academy on recruiting more than 3000 new students this year. 】

After Lin Chuan and the others completed the entrance ceremony, the Federation finally disclosed the information to the citizens of the Federation under the cloud, but this news, like those advertisements, did not attract much attention.

The federal citizens on the train still had numb expressions on their faces.

Even in this Extraordinary City, the Extraordinary Academy is too far away from them. Compared with these major events that can affect the federal structure, they are more concerned about whether synthetic meat can optimize the taste, which is close to life.

……

"Brother~"

"2577~"

Two illusory shadows gradually solidified beside Lin Chuan, and Yu Sheng and 2317 hugged Lin Chuan's arms from left to right.

Lin Chuan quickly pulled out his hand as if he had been electrocuted suddenly, and looked around in panic. After he didn't find A Li, he said with some fear:

"I'm begging you, you will make A Li misunderstand..."

2317 held back his laughter, and deliberately moved his butt, getting closer to Lin Chuan.

Yu Sheng couldn't hold it back, and burst out laughing. In her eyes, brother Lin Chuan's frightened look was really cute.

Lin Chuan angrily gave Yu Sheng a brainstorm, and then got up helplessly to avoid the posted 2317.

The two girls, one big and one small, didn't tease Lin Chuan anymore, they just looked at him with a smile on their face, enjoying this unearned peace.

……

Not long after, the air rail train stopped at the terminal station, Feng'an Tower Station.

The population of the seventh district is obviously much smaller than that of the eighth district. This is especially evident in the suburbs. Even in the chaotic suburbs of the ninth district, there are many scavengers.

After the three of Lin Chuan left the platform, the further they walked towards the edge of the city, the more they felt like they were in a deserted city.

It wasn't until he was approaching the gate of the city that he saw some figures, and Lin Chuan finally arrived at the address Wu Fa left for him.

From a distance, Lin Chuan had already seen the heavy iron gate.

And the closer to the iron gate, the more dignified the look of 2317 following behind Lin Chuan. Yu Sheng held her hand sensiblely, but it didn't seem to bring her any comfort.

Lin Chuan paused, turned around and patted 2317 on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"There is no way to change the past, and there is no need to avoid it. Only by facing the darkness can we welcome the light."

After speaking, he walked straight to the iron gate.

2317 took a deep breath, and took the rest of her life to catch up with Lin Chuan decisively. She may not have the courage to face the darkness, but she will not give up chasing the light, and Lin Chuan shines into his world. beam of light.

……

The iron gate closed the entrance of the alley. On both sides of the alley were two rows of slightly dilapidated low houses. The dark gray walls also stained the weeds that struggled out of the cracks in gray, creating a scene of nothingness. A lifeless scene.

Lin Chuan patted the iron gate a few times in accordance with the rule of three longs and two shorts, and soon someone opened the surveillance opening in the middle of the iron gate, revealing dark eyes of prey.

"Who are you looking for?"

Lin Chuan did not speak, but directly formed the word "Fa" with water flow.

As an ability user of the water system, how could Lin Chuan miss the time to be with Wu Fa? This manual water control technique is the result of Wu Fa's training in the past few days.

The people inside did not respond, but opened the iron gate directly, and guided Lin Chuan and the others into the alley respectfully.

……

Where there is light, there is darkness, and like District [-], the black market of District [-] is also located in the sewer facilities in the suburbs.

This is Wu Fa's biggest hole card for Lin Chuan.

Walking through the spiral downward stairs, Lin Chuan once again felt the strong contrast.

The resplendent sewer, the vanity hidden in the decay, should be the dirtiest place in the city, but it has the fragrance of birdsong and flowers brought by the most lush vegetation in the city.

Lin Chuan didn't cover his face. The moment he stepped into the black market with the two girls, the entire noisy black market stopped.

All the people wearing pure white cloth shirts, whether they were shopkeepers, shopkeepers, guards or residents, all stopped what they were doing and looked at Lin Chuan in a daze.

Then, everyone put their right fists on their chests and lowered their heads neatly at Lin Chuan:
"Light should not fall into the night forever!"
