Cataclysm King Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Steam and Magic

The resident next door looks like a human being.

She was wearing a gas mask with a brass skull pattern on her head, and a tattered linen cloak covered most of her body, making it impossible to see her face clearly.

The moment she rushed out, her eyes were as sharp as a knife.

However, after glancing at the door opened behind Ji Xun from the corner of her eye, the murderous intent in her eyes dissipated instantly, and she blurted out in surprise: "You're not dead yet?"

The voice is intentionally low, but it can be heard that the age should not be very old.

Probably recognized himself, so he didn't do anything.

Ji Xun listened to this, and complained in his heart.

Death is death once.

But, this woman seems to know herself?

Ji Xun didn't know anything just after time travel, and his intuition told him that it's best not to speak indiscriminately.

At the moment of the confrontation, the girl with the mechanical arm on the opposite side seemed to think of something, and took the lead in putting down the steam cannon barrel in her hand, and made a friendly gesture.

She looked at Ji Xun's empty clothes, and she obviously guessed something, she was even more puzzled, and murmured again: "Stayed with the 'Fallen Witch' all night, and you're still alive?"

Ji Xun still didn't speak, and put down the gun in his hand.

The other party immediately revealed that there is a [Fallen Witch] in the room, obviously knowing a lot.

The mysterious woman looked at the silent Ji Xun, pondered for a moment, seemed to think of something, and asked straight to the point, "Are you a solo hunter or do you have a team? I mean, are you interested in cooperating?"

Very straightforward.

As she spoke, she was afraid that the guy in front of her would not understand her current situation, so she added: "Otherwise, in your state, if the fallen witch comes to you tonight, you probably won't live until tomorrow."

"What?"

Ji Xun listened, quickly calculating the information in the words in his mind.

This woman's tone is very strange, she probably just met her, but she probably doesn't know the original owner.

This also saves a lot of trouble.

But listening to what this means, I can't survive tonight?

Where does this start?

This woman obviously has a lot of information he desperately needs.

Thinking in his mind, Ji Xun asked tentatively, "Cooperation?"

"Um."

The mysterious woman saw that he did not directly refuse, and said bluntly: "I am interested in the materials produced by the [Fallen Witch]. If you are willing to cooperate, we can hunt down this B-level pollutant tonight. Although there is no guarantee of success." , but at least I will try my best to kill it. Only by killing the monster can you leave the space alive."

After a pause, she added: "Of course, I will try my best to keep you safe."

Ji Xun heard that this meant killing monsters and exploding materials.

What kind of different-dimensional space is this, it seems that it is really a copy of a game or something.

He wanted to inquire about something more, but he knew too little about this world, and he didn't know where to ask in a short time.

And the girl with the mechanical arm obviously had a clear mind.

She keenly caught Ji Xun's moment of hesitation, thinking that he didn't believe herself, and said in a strange tone: "Although I don't know how you survived last night. But you don't think [Fallen Witch] will do this Let you go?"

Ji Xun still didn't speak, but he was thinking about the naked corpse lying inside.

Anyone who gets close will be polluted by radiation. This is a monster that I can't understand.

Moreover, the man in front of him is so well-equipped that he was not sure of killing him in words, which further confirmed his previous judgment that he should not be able to deal with it.

However, this person's words may not be completely believed.

Ji Xun fell into deep thought for a moment.

Can you still hesitate?

Ordinary people are targeted by a B-level disaster, and if someone helps you, why don't you agree quickly?

Looking at his hesitant expression, the girl with the mechanical arm obviously made up her own mind: this guy doesn't have a clear understanding of the horror of the [Fallen Witch], right?

What did she think of, and asked in surprise: "Did you come in without buying any information?"

That look, as if looking at a fool who was reckless and sent to death.

Ji Xun Zhengchou didn't know how to open the mouth for information. When the other party said this, he took his seat by default.

He asked smoothly: "You mean [Fallen Witch] will come to me again?"

Hearing this, the mysterious woman had such a helpless expression under the mask.

She pondered for a moment and explained: "Then you should have seen Enlightenment. This is a B-level catastrophe of the spiritual system. It can lock the soul of human beings. You stayed with it for one night. No matter where you hide in this space It can find you anywhere."

Ji Xun raised his eyelids slightly.

It turns out that enlightenment is not seen by oneself alone, but a certain rule of the world.

I understood what I said, and I was "marked" by the monster.

And he also immediately understood that the reason why this woman wants to cooperate is obviously not because of his combat power, but because he wants to use the monster's characteristic of marking, and needs a "bait".

But after hearing this, Ji Xun dispelled all his worries.

After all, they don't know each other, so no one will help you for no reason. Even if he used it, he didn't take it to heart.

The cooperation of value exchange is more stable.

He pondered for a moment, and asked the doubt in his heart: "Can you kill it now? I mean"

Originally, he wanted to say that the monster was still dormant, and it seemed to have no attack power, so it should be easy to kill.

But I didn't expect to be interrupted directly.

The girl with the mechanical arm was full of eyes, as expected, this guy didn't know anything, and she vetoed: "If you can kill the B-level disaster so easily, so many people will not die in this different-dimensional space. It doesn't matter if you can destroy it. The body, is able, no matter what method you use to kill it, it will be resurrected intact at night. This has been tried more than once. And anyone who gets close to its body will be left with a 'hate mark '. As night falls, those marked must die."

oh.

This plan really doesn't work.

He also just asked.

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows: "Death for sure?"

"right!"

The girl with the mechanical arm said firmly: "As far as I know, there are no exceptions."

"If you don't believe it, you can try to shoot twice, anyway, you have been marked."

Speaking, she looked at Ji Xun again, obviously surprised why this guy didn't die, and added another question: "I'm curious, how did you survive last night?"

Ji Xun did not intend to explain that the original owner was dead, nor could he explain why he was still alive.

But in the current situation, I have no choice at all.

Although he didn't believe everything this woman said, he could basically confirm a few points.

First, the monster inside is really tricky, at least you can't solve it by yourself.

Second, the opponent is equipped with excellent equipment, so there is no need to talk so much to kill him. Tied up as bait seems to be the same? Or you need to cooperate with yourself to be the bait.

But no matter what, at least before killing the [Fallen Witch], I still have value.

Valuable, there is no danger for the time being.

Ji Xun knows nothing about this world, and just needs a source of information right now.

He didn't hesitate, and said directly: "I agree to cooperate."

As he spoke, he added another sentence: "But before that, can you share some information? I mean, about this space."

"Can!"

The girl with the mechanical arm was obviously relieved after hearing this.

I'm afraid of encountering an idiot who can't figure out the situation.

With a bait, it will be much more convenient to hunt and kill that disaster by yourself.

As she spoke, she gestured to Room 2013, which she just came out of, and said, "But there are still twelve hours before dark, and I still have some preparations to do. If you want to live until night, you can go to the room and stay there. Or if you are not afraid of encountering monsters, just follow me. But I do not guarantee that you will be safe."
