Even Cloris was startled by the sudden change, she had no premonition of this crisis!
The ground cracked at an unexpected speed, and brilliant sparks shot out.
Just as Cloris weaved the thread on the surface of her body, Naina opened the crack in the blink of an eye, hugged the girl's waist and walked through the air.
"boom--"
The fire quickly rushed towards the crack.
When the spinning vision stabilized again, Cloris found that Naina was still holding half of the wreckage.
It was the seriously injured man who was supported by her earlier. When he entered the crack a few tenths of a second later, he was engulfed by the explosion.
"Ho, ho ho ho..."
Blood was bubbling from his throat, and he stared straight at Naina, not knowing what to say.
The elf was anxious: "Don't move anymore, I will find a way to help you stop the bleeding!"
However, how can a person who has been blown to pieces half his waist stop bleeding?There is only one dead end.
"Ho ho ho..."
The seriously injured man struggled to take out a bronze business card from his arms, from which Cloris faintly sensed the existence of spirit matter.
"Don't move anymore..." Naina was at a loss.
Cloris was indifferent to the life and death of the seriously injured man. She went straight to the business card and found that there was no writing on it, only a door with an all-seeing eye embedded in it.
The secret text on it symbolizes disaster, and it is somewhat similar to the door of the poisonous coffin, but there are discrepancies in the details, and Cloris' knowledge is not enough to interpret the information in it.
However, the girl could feel that this incident was probably not a coincidence.
Since it was related to the "door", Cloris accepted it.Even if other people's spirituality exists on it, the girl can throw it into the Ring of the Void to hide its breath.
"He's dead," said Cloris.
"Yeah." Naina nodded, pulling herself together, "I'm going to fight the fire!"
After the elf left, Cloris stared at the half of the wreckage on the ground in distress.
Naina was too reckless. The way this man died would hardly arouse the suspicion of the authorities in Lighthaven City. If he got to the bottom of it, the identity of the elf wanted man might be revealed.
But then again, Naina is a wanted criminal by the Gulingdu Police Department, shouldn't the Explorers Guild make things difficult for her?
After thinking for a while, the girl picked up the wreckage, let the clouds and rain in the sky wash away the blood, wiped away the impressive spirit matter, and carefully approached the raging flames, found the other half of the man at the position just now, sewed it up, and threw it into the in the fire.
"May the sun and fire purify your filthy soul, and stop being a liar in the next life." Cloris was like a priest who saved people, drawing the sun cross on her chest.
Only then did Cloris' inspiration begin to show signs of crisis.
The crisis that the touch of the void can perceive is mainly aimed at the hostility and gaze of others.
The girl became vigilant, and she slowly walked around to the shadow behind the damaged wall, waiting for the appearance of the enemy, or another explosion.But that premonition just retreated silently, and nothing happened.
The police in Lantern Harbor City blocked off the block. They were extremely busy tonight. First, they dealt with more than a dozen incidents of explorers fighting from morning to night.
The explorers groaned (groaned) in the ruins, and Naina was using roots to remove the steel bars and stone slabs to rescue people, and there were crowds joining in the fun on the periphery. It was a rare thing that there were no ordinary citizens among the wounded.
"Thanks to your friend's rain, the concentration of fire source crystal dust in the air has been diluted," the sheriff thanked Cloris, who was fishing, "There happened to be a fire drill in this block today, and everyone was evacuated. I don’t know what kind of tragedy will happen.”
"It happened to be a drill?"
"Are you a foreigner, um, the Church of the Sun, um...return your ID card," the sheriff said with a wry smile after the inspection, "After all, there are too many explorers and stowaways in our Light Harbor, and you have seen it too. There were at least ten incidents where explorers caused disturbances and more than 40 innocent people were injured... I heard that they were disqualified from the assessment of explorers. If you ask me, these guys who are not good at life, what kind of adventures are they doing? As for the family, they should all be arrested and sent to the mines to do hard labor!"
362. up
Contrary to Cloris' expectations, Naina was not only not found out, but was commended by the Light Harbor City Government.
After investigation, the explosion was determined to be an accident during a conflict between the explorer and the scammer.
The main reason is that the impurities in the gaseous source crystals during this period exceeded the standard, and the staff in the back kitchen of the restaurant caused the source gas to leak due to irregular operations when they left.Even so, without the intervention of various mysterious characteristics of the extraordinary to trigger a chain reaction, the probability of the pipeline explosion is very small.
Relevant energy companies have been investigated and fined, and those involved have also been detained. As for those injured by the explorers...the sheriff said that if these people hadn't caused trouble, there would have been no tragedy.
The mysterious characteristics of extraordinary people are inherently dangerous, let alone a group of wild people?Not to mention that your own health will be greatly affected, and you will also face a higher risk of losing control.
As for divination...
Divination is useless.
This kind of destiny-oriented mystery often produces ambiguous results, which need to be interpreted by the fortune-teller himself.However, this kind of interpretation often becomes a part of fate, and can only give partial truth, and the fallacy of the blind man feeling the elephant appears.
Therefore, in general case-solving, divination is just a common auxiliary method for reference.
Regarding the explosion incident, a fortune teller in the Police Department of Denggang City did make a fortune teller, and concluded that the explorers and scammers were the main factors in the accident, and it was purely self-inflicted.
This is why Cloris came to the conclusion that "divination is useless".
That night, the girl clearly sensed a peeping person behind the scenes.She tried to knock the police around with the bronze business card, asking if it was a lost item of an explorer at the scene, but after "detailed" research, the police confirmed that it was just a very ordinary work of art.
It's inconvenient for Cloris to tell the origin of this business card, and it can't be said that it was given to her by a fraudulent leader before his death.
In that case, the police will definitely ask for more details, which may not be a good thing for Naina - who knows if there will be someone with a good word for the bounty?
Moreover, Cloris also has the idea of staying to investigate things related to the disciples of the void.
To the girl's surprise, the spirituality on the business card was not detected by the police, it was hidden so deep that even Cloris could only vaguely perceive it.
At noon the next day, Cloris and Naina headed to the Explorers' Guild together after half a day of boating.
The list of new explorers will be announced in the personnel office on the third floor of the main hall. Without any suspense, Cloris received her explorer badge from the staff.
Like the identity star emblem, the function is similar, but it will record more matters related to the expedition.
From Cloris' perspective, there is a tiny dreamland floating in a lake of ectoplasm in the badge, and each "water drop" composed of ectoplasm stores information. Unfortunately, although she is a [Dream Walker], she cannot Tamper with the ectoplasm in the emblem, or damage will result.
"Deadwood".
"coffin".
The levels of explorers are divided into "Deadwood", "Cold Iron", "Bronze", "Mithril", "Golden", as well as the guild core, "Obsidian" and White Night who are engaged in different fields.
There is nothing wrong with the first five levels, which are easy to remember. The problem is that there are corresponding symbols on the badges of each level.
Rotten wood is a rotting coffin, cold iron is a bone-wrapping thorn, bronze is a star-shaped shackle, mithril is a nail, and blazing gold is a stele.
To follow the path of advancement of an explorer is to crucify a person in a coffin and erect a solid monument on the grave.
"Why is the badge of the dead wood explorer a standing coffin?"
Cloris heard an explorer questioning the staff.
The latter smiled formulaically, and replied: "Keep in mind the constraints, and don't get lost."
Cloris walked over and asked, "Wouldn't it be too lifeless to use a coffin as a badge?"
At this time, the staff replied with a smile: "It is precisely because of this that we have to break the constraints and welcome the new students, isn't it?"
Cloris noticed the Star Church logo on the other party's badge, and asked again: "But you and her didn't say that, what exactly is lost?"
"When you linger on its shape, think about its connotation and hesitate, you are already lost. Please, Miss Explorer." The staff continued to signal the next one to come forward.
Well, the other party has the right to interpret the scriptures, and Cloris will no longer argue.
There are many benefits to being an explorer.
First of all, after completing the commission, you will get contribution points, which can only be traded within the guild. According to the level of the explorer, you can purchase things that are difficult to obtain from the outside world in the monthly item list. Explorers who are short of money can use this Be a second-hand dealer.
Secondly, the guild's strongholds all over the world are open to explorers, and explorers can enjoy discounts that the outside world does not have when they spend in all the shops in the name of the guild.
In addition, when an explorer finds an unclaimed land suitable for colonization and notifies the guild, the guild will guarantee the explorer's right to claim the territory and cooperate with the lord according to the actual situation.This is usually applicable to uncivilized wild lands and sparsely populated airspaces. Areas like Ubu Noor, which are on the surface of the deep world, can be regarded as developed areas compared with most airspaces.
There are many messy privileges.
Cloris didn't need to find commissions that matched her ability to make money, so after completing the identity registration, the girl did not follow Lolo Lula's suggestion to do an ability assessment.
[Weicheng] As the headquarters of the guild, the ancillary buildings are useless.The guild hall is just the tip of the iceberg exposed on the outside of the mountain, and there are hidden caves inside. Even if it is only a public area, you can still stroll around for a day and a night.
The two had lunch at the guild restaurant, both taste and price were very approachable, neither outstanding nor out of the ordinary.
Cloris flipped through the latest economic magazine on the shelf, and suddenly saw a majestic city under the dark sky, among the proud mountains, printed on the cover.
"[Watching Outpost] achieved a great victory. The market value has increased by more than [-]%. The ruins of the Muye Plateau have opened their skirts to investors!"
"!" Cloris closed the magazine.
"What's wrong?" Naina noticed the strangeness of the girl.
The Night Plateau is in the southeast of the Sea of Floating Stars. It is a vast world composed of gravel floating islands and lofty mountains. Strange monsters are raging, fog is invading, and the sun is dark all year round. Only a small part of the area has been developed as an exploration base. All food is imported, and the huge airspace is permanent. There are less than 80 residents, most of whom are slaves.
This is considered to be a bad condition in the entire deep world.
Although strange monsters are full of pollution, they are also useful in many fields. The plateau is also rich in strange creatures, which are invaluable and worthy of explorers. More importantly, there is definitely a ruined ancient country there, and there are countless in the remaining cities. Inexhaustible treasure.
However, these are not the focus of Cloris' concern, the point is——
She bought this miracle stock.
363. Great Harvest
A spectacle that can be listed, even if it has not yet been fully completed, the basic functions have been basically completed, and it can bring positive economic benefits.
[Watch Outpost] guards the main road leading to the ruins, inside is a barrier to protect the supply line from invasion, and outside is a camp heading deep into the ruins. Explorers want to bring out treasures from the night plateau, [Watch Outpost] It is indispensable.
In the past 30 years, whenever the strange monsters are periodically active, the steadfast city gate will bring more reputation to [Outpost Watch]. As time goes by, the spectacle becomes more stable, and its value rises accordingly.
After lunch, Cloris went to the guild's information hall to check the monthly real-time updated public information before going to the Explorer's Bank.
The so-called "strange monster" is an evil thing that did not die after being polluted by a strong radiation source, but instead mutated.When the abyss invaded reality, "strange monsters" gradually merged due to their good compatibility with corruption, and were often driven by the demons of the abyss to serve as servants.
Ancient human ruins where strange monsters are widely distributed have a higher probability of appearing thousand-legged demons.
The girl checked the price quoted by the Explorers' Guild. Ten milliliters of well-preserved thousand-legged demon brains cost 30 star yuan, four times the price [-] years ago, and there is no market for it.
"In addition to being used for a variety of soul skills, the brains of the thousand-legged demons can also extract nerve fluids with strong dreamlike properties, which are used by the church of souls for reloading research and development..."
Cloris flipped through the Encyclopedia of Mysterious Materials. According to the above, in the early years, the Church of Souls monopolized [-]% of the trade in the brains of millipedes. As the species became rarer, the market fell off a cliff.
In contrast, the Horror's Daredevil Explorers Guild has quite a few in stock.As a real abyss species, terrors are rare, but due to the narrow field of use, few supernatural beings have used them for many years.
"The gall of the Terror can be obtained for six thousand star dollars. According to Agatha's information, the auction at the end of the year should have abyss red stones, but the price may be expensive."
Although the guild's price for the thousand-legged demon's brain is [-] yuan, it's hard to say how much it will cost if you really get it through entrustment.The auction house is even more of a golden cave. The abyss red stone has the characteristics of violent anger. After being ground into powder, it can be used as a recipe material for some accompanying skills, and it can also be used for secret script engraving and alchemy production. However, it is more humane because of its other The carving value as a work of art is divided into several grades by the industry according to the purity.
For girls, there is no difference between low-end and high-end abyss red stones, but for the arty rich, the price difference between the two can be tens or even hundreds of times.
Abyss red stones of good quality and rubbish can be obtained for a few thousand star dollars, but if it is of high quality... Cloris has no confidence in competing with the rich in the collection industry for financial resources.
"Cloris, what are you thinking?" Naina leaned closer to her face, reading the words on the book next to Cloris.
"I'm still idle, I'm wondering whether to go to Muye Plateau, maybe I can save tens of thousands of star dollars." Cloris couldn't help but sigh.
The Orb of Rest she implanted in her diaphragm was only [-] Aegis, less than [-] star yuan.Of course, with Cloris promoted to Dreamwalker, the effect of the Orb of Rest on soul protection is actually not that important.
The goblin Theo Pavel Calle looked greedy and loud, but in fact he really didn't want to trick her.Now, the Evangelical Correctional Institute invites the Canary Firm to enter the game and do business with the Huck family in [Luentia]. The value of this alone far exceeds all the investment costs and risks the Goblin paid in the early stage.
"Then go, I also want to see the world outside Gulingting." Naina was full of interest.
"But the conditions on the Nightfall Plateau are extremely bad," Cloris emphasized, "and the atmosphere is relatively bad. There, justice is impossible."
"Is Cloris worried that I'm acting on my own will?" Naina immediately understood what Cloris was implying, and struggled, "If I really encounter something full of evil, I will try my best to restrain myself and not cause trouble. "
"..." Cloris wasn't really trying to persuade Naina, but she didn't really want to go.
It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. If you don’t want to enjoy the delicacies of the ancient Lingting’s mountains and seas and the beauty of the country, you have to go to the world that is worse than Far Yar, where the lack of food and hot water supply are problems. Just thinking about it makes you lazy.
Cloris understands the slack in her heart, which doesn't mean that she loses her ambition and is content with the status quo, but...why can't it be solved with money?
Wouldn't it be nice to stay comfortably in a big house and plan strategies?
Well, no money.
"I must have been corrupted!"
Cloris sighed faintly and regained her composure.
After entering the city that never sleeps, the girl's quality of life has soared at a speed visible to the naked eye within a year, which made her impression of the embarrassment and toil of the past even more blurred.Although in the memory palace, Cloris can review the past at any time, but compared with her current state of mind, she always feels full of distance.
Because the touch of the void filters out the filth and transforms the body into purity, the calluses and scars on her fingertips caused by flossing have almost disappeared. It can't be called perfect, but there is no trace of labor.
Killing didn't make her stronger.
"Then let's go and have a look, but be prepared," Cloris said, seeing the excited light in Naina's eyes, "We are not traveling, it will be very dangerous."
