Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Chapter 334 Chapter 331 Enrollment Actions
The Crimson Cartel flexes its muscles at the Great Fair, where the hype caused by Celestial's execution of puppet Ia quadruples the price of admission to the show.Many people want to come and see what the super executive puppet looks like with their own eyes, and more people want to join in the fun and take a few photos of themselves and the executive puppet.

Ge Gongdao jokingly said: "Let the exhibition be held for a few more days, and then there is a charge for taking pictures, and the cost of this execution puppet may be able to earn back."

Taking advantage of his position, Zhuang Xuteng also went to the exhibition hall to watch the gods execute the puppets, so as to add a little free "company shock" to himself.He doesn't need a camera, and his excellent graphic memory is enough to imprint in his mind all the details of the appearance of the puppet executed by the gods.If the phantom vision is also used, he can also analyze where the shadow slaves of the gods to execute the puppets are placed, and what kind of strength they are.

Every shadow follower and implant exudes a blue light, while a faint halo of the highest level orange looms under the golem's helmet.All are living shadows, the best kind, and the cost of this execution puppet cannot be lowered.But after the invention of shadow copying technology, its cost can indeed be greatly reduced, and those shadows will not make people feel too distressed when they are used.

Alas, the company has the best products, and because they don't put them on the market, ordinary people have no idea how much these good things are worth.Many people join the company just to be able to use these good things. They need to show and contribute their ingenuity and wisdom, and scroll up step by step before they can touch the highest technological achievements.

Now that achievement is in front of my eyes, about twelve or thirteen meters away from Zhuang Xuteng.Um?Zhuang Xuteng had a whim, he was wondering if this execution puppet was a kind of dead body?Structurally, it is still humanoid, with a complete head, body and limbs.Although the internal organs are gone, this absence does not affect undead spells such as controlling the dead.From the outside, Celestial execution puppets are closer to zombies.Don't forget, even if the muscles and skin are gone, and only the skeleton is left in the end, the control undead spell can also make the skeleton move.

Twelve to 13 meters, still within the casting range, do you want to try?Zhuang Xuteng licked his lips, secretly running mana and casting spells.

The necromantic spells drove the energy fluctuations of the shadows, triggering the defense mechanism of the gods to execute puppets.Facing the unknown energy fluctuations, the puppet turned its head slightly, looking for the source by scanning.Its sudden movement made the people present very nervous, and many people shouted excitedly, as if they were going to die of excitement in the next second.Zhuang Xuteng was also taken aback. This was the first time he encountered the detection of necromancy. Usually, the random activities of the wraith servants have never been discovered.

Just when he was thinking about how to cover up the spellcasting behavior, the spell was completed, and the execution puppet was indeed a corpse, which could be affected by the control of undead spell.The moment the spell was successful, Zhuang Xuteng confirmed two facts: the manipulation method of executing the puppet was the same as when he practiced on the corpse in the funeral parlor, just treat it as an extension of his own body; The shadows consume a lot of energy, and the side effects are extremely terrible. Any movement that manipulates it is almost an unbearable burden for Zhuang Xuteng at this stage.

The only order he could get the puppet to carry out was to return to its original position and stop detecting shadow energy, and "Ea" did exactly that.With just this order, all the mice carried by Zhuang Xuteng were killed. He also felt that he was entangled in resentment, and his body and spirit were weakened a lot.So he quickly gave up the control, and while absorbing his own grievances and side effects with the wraith-type spells, he mingled with the crowd and hurried away.

The god executed the puppet to stand at attention again, as if nothing had happened, but it did move just now, and the audience and security guards saw it.Soon, seven staff members wearing light protective clothing came to the stage, connected many equipment that no one had seen before to the platform under the puppet's feet, and began to check the situation on the spot.After searching for a long time, they only knew that there had been strange shadow energy fluctuations, the source was unknown, there was no danger, and it disappeared soon.Executing the puppet's actions is reactive and not a problem.

Zhuang Xuteng left the venue and returned to the restaurant, ordered a few high-protein foods and started stuffing them in order to let his body recover as soon as possible.Ge Gongdao reached out his hand to feel in his shoulder bag, and there was no sense of mouse activity in it, so he knew something was wrong.He was about to take off his coat and give Zhuang Xuteng his little white mouse rucksack when he was held down.

Zhuang Xuteng tilted his head and said, "No, there are many people here. Just sit next to me and let me grab it."

"Okay." Ge Gongdao sat down.He knew very well that two people might be misunderstood if they got too close, but did he care about gossip?It's like what he often said: If I want face, I will quit this business long ago when my identity is made public!
Another bag of white mice was sacrificed, and Zhuang Xuteng also recovered.In necromancy, there are also some spells that sacrifice life to strengthen oneself. Because they are quite cruel and difficult to be accepted by the public, they are classified as "forbidden evil spells".Zhuang Xuteng thinks that his current behavior is a sacrifice, and the mouse will die sooner or later, why not improve some efficiency?
Besides, there is no question of whether the "public" accepts him here.

"Thank you, Brother Dao, I'm here now." Zhuang Xuteng frowned, and said, "Just now, when the god executed the puppet, I felt a lot of pressure and suddenly had side effects. Do you feel this way?"

Brother Dao shook his head, and asked with concern: "Implant rejection? Or is it too tired to practice recently?"

"It's not a rejection reaction, maybe it's because I was tired, and then I was taken aback." Zhuang Xuteng waved his hand and said, "I feel normal now, so there shouldn't be any serious problems. Don't practice for the next two days, take a good rest and relax, and then change A batch of little white mice will be completely fine."

The appearance of the god's execution puppet gave Zhuang Xuteng a sense of urgency to improve his strength.Now the situation is more obvious, the road of implants is basically impossible, the gap is too big, if the same energy and cost are invested in necromancy and super calculation martial arts, the benefits that can be obtained must be many times that of implants .

At the same time, Zhuang Xuteng also found the weakness of the god's execution puppet: it can be controlled by undead spells, which shows that it is definitely not invincible.Judging from the system of Shadow Cong equipment, Shadow Cong implants and Shadow Cong spells, the execution of the puppet by the gods can completely kill the Quartet, but it cannot prevent other system forces that have not been seen before.And the best execution puppets of the gods can be controlled, so other execution puppets should not be able to escape.Since there is a way to deal with it, there is no need to be afraid.

Necromancy can definitely open up the situation for Zhuang Xuteng, but he also knows that this method cannot be used frequently.The short spell casting just now attracted a lot of staff. If the execution puppets are frequently controlled by others, the Scarlet Group will definitely devote great efforts to special research, and eventually either solve the problem or solve him. Zhuang Xuteng doesn't want that kind of end at all.

It can be controlled as a corpse, which also inspired Zhuang Xuteng.Neither the Shadow Servant nor the Shadow Servant Implant can be affected by the Manipulation of Undead spells, since they are not the correct target for the spell, and golems are dead bodies that "qualify for the spell".Simply stacking implants and shadow slave equipment can't get a corpse, so it's more likely that the god's execution puppet was modified from a corpse, so that it can explain why the spell can take effect.

The god's execution puppet is nearly three meters high, and judging from its body proportions, it seems that it was originally like this.Such a body type is rare, and normal people don't behave like that.King Kong of the Wild Monkey Gang can reach it, so the source of the corpse may be someone like King Kong.Using implants, drugs, equipment assistance, large nutritional intake and special exercise methods, first cultivate a person into a huge and strong man, then open his stomach and stuff him into the equipment, modified into……

Zhuang Xuteng couldn't think any more, he shook his head, and quickly got those horrible pictures out of his mind.If so, wouldn't it be the same as the most evil part of necromancy?Zhuang Xuteng believes that the company will not do that, because once such things are exposed, it will have an impact on the company's reputation and their profits, which is not in their interest.In particular, it is not necessary for them to be so extreme, and the four major group companies have not encountered real threats.Besides, cultivating a King Kong is already very troublesome, and it is obviously a very inefficient way to only use it as a container for shadow equipment.

"If you need to use a lot of equipment together, you can use the external skeleton if you can't fit it inside! There is no need to go all the way to the black on the road of 'King Kong'."

There is a lot of thinking caused by the execution of the puppet by the gods. People with brains and without brains are predicting what changes it will bring, but no one is thinking about how to deal with it.Everyone may also be used to the invincible state of the four major conglomerate companies. Apart from corporate wars, there is nothing that can threaten them.The execution of the puppet by the gods is nothing but invincibility above invincibility, and it does not affect the result.

Perhaps influenced by the knowledge on the stone pillar, Zhuang Xuteng thought a little more. He saw the possibility of the four major group companies uniting or even merging.To be able to distribute benefits and share risks in advance, to act in a unified manner, to cooperate and complement each other, where there is no competition among the four major companies, only cooperation is left!Now it is just the beginning. As more and more similar things happen in the future, a practice will gradually be formed and mutual trust will be continuously enhanced. Sooner or later, these four major companies will be one.

At that time, even corporate wars will be meaningless, so they can do whatever they want?
Zhuang Xuteng thinks that kind of situation must be bad, but he neither knows how to prevent the bad situation from happening, nor does he know what can be called a good situation.All he knew now was that the threat was coming, so he had to improve his skills and be prepared to deal with it.So, after the task of the Great Exposition was completed, Zhuang Xuteng devoted himself to the practice of necromancy and super calculation martial arts.

After two weeks without any mercenary assignments, Zhuang Xuteng received a call from Lucy and finally had a job to do.Zhuang Xuteng was very excited, so he wanted to ask Brother Shangdao and others to listen to the briefing together.Unexpectedly, Lucy told him that he was appointed to complete this task by name, and the name was Morgana.

"Uh, if it's a mercenary mission, I have a fixed team now, so it's not easy to go out and do it alone." Zhuang Xuteng thought for a while, and he understood Lucy's embarrassment, so he took the initiative to say: "I'll call Morgana. Are you not breaking the rules?"

Lucy gave a faint "hmm" to express her agreement, and while waiting for Naike to call, she called her daughter Meteor.She wants to persuade Meteor that it is absolutely fine to treat Naike as a friend, but if she wants to go further, she must prepare for failure.

She was yelled at by Meteor as a matter of course. It was expected that her daughter didn't understand her situation, and it was reasonable to quarrel, but what should be done had to be done.The same is true for Zhuang Xuteng. Part of his responsibilities need to be responsible to the team, so even if it might make Morgana unhappy, he has to make a call.

"If it's just the two of us, then let's go on a date. Why do you still pay the middleman?" Zhuang Xuteng said on the phone: "If it's an important task, then I need a team. Now we are four people, we can handle it It’s a lot more than before.”

Morgana finally determined that this was a mission rather than a date, and at the same time complained that Zhuang Xuteng took the initiative to ask her out too few times, and she expressed dissatisfaction.Uh, the conscience of heaven and earth, how busy the PCPD was during the previous period, cracking down on gang drug dealers, protecting the evidence preservation center, maintaining the peace of Peicheng during the Great Expo...Zhuang Xuteng called her, but couldn't make an appointment at all.

By the way, Morgana was very careful when calling him, and the sentences were as short as possible, and she almost didn't use encrypted language.Zhuang Xuteng always felt that she was performing a special mission, and his phone call without warning might pose a risk to her.When he showed this concern and promised to ask her out more in the future, Morgana was completely satisfied and changed the assignment from named individuals to named teams.

A group of four came to Lucy to watch the mission briefing.The four people share the money, and the income is relatively reduced, but this mission has some opportunities to earn extra money.Morgana asked them to go to the university of the Peicheng Sanliu Charity Foundation—the one where Zhuang Feifei studied before—to steal a testing instrument from its laboratory.It was a modified chemical spectrometer, and its value was more in the item of "modification", so everyone was required to ensure that the instrument was intact.

"She also gave a list to make sure to get these medicines during the stealing process. Without these specially configured medicines, the analyzer will not be effective." Lucy said: "In order to avoid showing too much Targeted, this operation is going to be disguised as a burglary by blue savage junkies, and what you are actually going to take out will be much more than the original requested list. At the same time, you will also have to put a detector of the same model Send it in, and accidentally break it, so that it seems that the thing has not been stolen."

Zhuang Xuteng read the mission requirements, raised his head, and looked at Lucy helplessly.Lucy understood the look in his eyes, which meant: This task is so cumbersome, it was actually prepared for Zhuang Xuteng himself before.Morgana made a request to name someone, and Lucy immediately understood that the woman must be planning to go with Nick, which is equivalent to dating on a mission.

Fortunately, Naike has a clear mind, and fortunately, he is very principled, always thinking about his partner.Now that the four of them are acting together, they have a lot more manpower, and Morgana will not come to meddle.Hey, that woman may feel shy, at least to reduce the impact of off-site factors on professional activities.But that might not be a good thing for Meteor, uh... Lucy is having trouble again.

"According to the intelligence, there are many things in the university laboratory, and you can earn a fortune by taking them out. Moreover, some nutritional formula ingredients that Brother Dao and Naike have always wanted can't be found outside. Maybe there are in the laboratory. You can plan carefully one time."
