Cataclysm King
Chapter 36: Hunter's Place
Chapter 36 Hunter Square City
One class lasted more than two hours.
But it seemed like time passed quickly, and it was over in a blink of an eye.
The young hunters were very interested in joining the Storm Corps, and gathered around the podium one by one, registering as candidates.
Ji Xun had no intention of joining the team for the time being, and walked out of the hunter union building.
Although this class was all about the basic knowledge of spell card masters, it was very rewarding for him.
Unknowingly, he walked to the trade union reward hall again.
Ji Xun also stopped to take a look.
As he expected, a few days have passed, and there is still no "wanted warrant" or "reward" in the city of innocence to find him.
The Fourth Young Master of the Cao family was afraid of leaking the news, so he could only look for it secretly.
This also made Ji Xun feel that the threat was greatly reduced.
He walked all the way, and he looked around from the corner of his eye, but saw some suspicious guys.
Maybe it was for me, or it might be something else.
But he is not the only one with secrets in the city of innocence.
Ji Xun didn't take it too seriously.
After all, I didn’t catch myself on the train last time, and it’s even more impossible to find me now.
Ji Xun didn't think much, walked out of the building, and continued to wander around the market outside the Hunter Union.
It was a rare day off, and he was also very interested in the weird items on the booth, so he wandered all the way there.
Although these stalls look crude, they are all first-hand goods brought out by hunters from the ruins. Extraordinary materials, ancient documents, antiques, blueprints, scrolls of secret methods...even the stall owners themselves don't know what they are selling.
There are many good things.
But if you miss something, it’s all about luck.
After all, we are outside, and enlightenment does not always work.
For things that are too much beyond cognition, enlightenment will not show, or only part of it will show.
It’s like the [Secret Cause Psychic] before, when it’s not in your cognition, you can’t even see it.
These days, Ji Xun has gradually figured out some rules of this mysterious "enlightenment".
He found that everyone saw inspirational content differently.
This seems to have something to do with personal cognition.
Just like Ji Xun himself, some words in his cognition, such as "BOSS", are not such concepts in this world at all.
But enlightenment will show.
That is to say, enlightenment is a higher-level special expression method that surpasses the existing cognition of human beings and is not limited to the type of words.
Ji Xun didn't find it strange either.
There are too many secrets in this world to have a "miracle" like a different-dimensional space.
It was this sense of mystery that made him feel more and more interesting.
Walking around several stalls along the way, Ji Xun's eyes suddenly stopped in the distance.
He saw two beggars on the side of the road.
It was a dirty little girl of seven or eight years old, holding a younger child who looked like her brother. The siblings snuggled up on a stained blanket, staring blankly at the people coming and going, with hunger written all over their faces.
There are two types of beggars in Innocence City, one is thieves, and the other is real orphans.
In this city of sin, human life is worthless. Hunters have a high mortality rate, and there are many such orphans.
All the people who come and go are numb.
The people in Innocence City are mostly bloodthirsty rich wolves, no one will pity the weak.
Ji Xun thought of something, took something by hand, and walked over.
He squatted in front of the siblings, smiled and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"
As he spoke, he took off his gas mask, and as if by magic, his face turned into a clown with a funny red nose.
Just the bright smile on the face, as if people see it, they will be amused.
The elder sister’s eyes were still indifferent due to hunger, while the younger brother stretched out his hand curiously, as if wanting to touch the clown mask.
Ji Xun didn't care, instead he grinned, "I'll make a magic trick for you."
As he spoke, under the finally curious eyes of the siblings, he stretched out his hand, turned over the magic flower hand, and signaled that his hand was empty.
"Look good."
At this time, the smile on the clown's face became even brighter. He put his left hand across his face as if hiding something, and then made a grabbing motion with his right hand, pulling and pulling and pulling.
In the next second, my younger brother's clear eyes suddenly lit up, because he watched a black thing being pulled out!
There is also a hint of freshly baked wheat aroma of bread.
The younger brother seemed to have seen the most incredible scene in his life, couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and exclaimed: "Sister, it's bread! Bread!"
"Yes~Look at how long it is~"
The clown was immersed in the performance, but he didn't finish his movements.
He kept pumping and pumping, and a piece of black bread as thick as an arm was getting longer and longer.
It was like magic, he pulled out a piece of black bread that was longer than his forearm.
Watching this miraculous scene, the younger brother was so excited that he danced and pulled his sister's skirt, excitedly saying: "Sister, sister, look quickly, this gentleman really conjured a loaf of bread!!"
This is just a trick that many magicians do.
But at the moment, on those two innocent little faces, it seemed as if the whole world was illuminated by light, shining into the heart shrouded in clouds, as if the body was warmed up all of a sudden.
Seeing this, the clown's exaggerated red smiling face curved to the corner of his eyes. He passed the bread over. There was no mercy for the weak, only the kindness of equality: "Eat it. It's for you."
With a piece of bread, the siblings will not be hungry for two days.
No money was given because it was clear they couldn't keep it.
The eyes of the siblings who were holding the bread trembled with excitement, and finally, the lifeless gloomy tone on their little faces gradually brightened.
The clown smiled with satisfaction when he saw this.
Standing up and putting on the gas mask again, his eyes turned cold again.
Ji Xun turned and left.
After walking a few steps, my sister's urgent voice came from behind: "Thank you, sir. My name is Ning."
Hearing this, under the gas mask, Ji Xun smiled slightly.
But he didn't look back, and left straight away.
Obviously I have had a very bad time, but I can't see the suffering of others.
This is probably the clown.
Life is kissed with pain, but he always laughs at it.
Make others happy with funny performances.
Ji Xun thought about it, and thought of it.
If it wasn’t for the kind bearded man in the parade circus, probably in that cold winter, there would have been an extra little boy who froze to death in the cave dwelling by the railway.
It's like encountering a little episode in life, not to mention much intention, just random kindness.
Or is it an occupational disease engraved in his bones after playing clowns for many years?
Probably so.
Ji Xun didn't take it to heart at all.
He walked all the way, and soon came to a shop with the signboard of "Old Man Benson's Ancient Books Shop".
The wooden board at the door also read: All kinds of ancient books and documents are sold.
This is a small bookstore that sells breathing methods, card making books and various magic books.
Last time, Ji Xun bought [Darkness Breathing Method] from this shop.
The small shop is not big, but it has a good reputation in the hunter circle, and the price is fair. Many hunters like to sell their things here, so there are many good things.
He came this time to see more.
"Boss, the [Great Darkness Breathing Method] I bought last time is very useful. It's worth the money!"
As soon as he entered the door, Ji Xun let out a rainbow fart first, and then said: "I want to see other things this time."
"Oh. Just take a look."
After saying this, the boss also seemed to remember that this is a repeat customer. He swallowed the words "don't rummaging" and let him read some unimportant classics.
Ji Xun wasn't too polite, so he just looked around in the small shop.
The ancient books on breathing methods cannot be read, but the ancient texts on the stone slabs and antiques can be displayed.
It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not, the key is that he has a "photographic memory"!
Just read it carefully and keep these things in your mind.
In any time, knowledge is the most precious.
The words and symbols of any civilization are actually regular, as long as there are enough references, they can even be deciphered slowly.
Whether it is pictographs, ideographic symbols, or phonetic alphabets.
The same is true for the various mysterious symbols and spells in this world.
The essence is to use patterns to express what the writer wants to express.
Ji Xun felt that as long as he memorized enough symbols, he could even slowly decipher the ancient documents of this world.
The secrets of the world will naturally open their doors.
Looking at these classics, Ji Xun suddenly felt that with his ability to never forget, it seemed like a good choice for him to transfer to a few scholars of the [5-Wisdom] sequence in the future, such as card master professions?
He flipped through the store quickly, engraving various mysterious symbols in his mind like a typewriter.
Because of distraction, Ji Xun read very quickly, and in the eyes of others, he looked at it casually.
The boss didn't say anything.
There were a lot of people coming and going, Ji Xun only glanced occasionally, but didn't care.
Unknowingly, a new customer came to the store suddenly, and he arrived first before he arrived: "Old man, do you have any new products?"
Ji Xun didn't care at first.
Hearing the voice, he instinctively glanced sideways.
But the boss stood up abruptly after listening to the question, with a hint of flattery in his tone of voice?
"Ouch, yes! yes! yes!"
Then, he took out a large stack of black and white photos from the storage ring, and explained enthusiastically: "These are the latest ancient documents found by hunters recently. If you want the originals, I will find them for you in the warehouse." .”
The man responded: "Not for now, I'll take a look first."
Ji Xun was also taken aback when he heard that:? ? ?
This old man is usually indifferent to everyone, but he is so enthusiastic about this guest?
also used honorifics.
What is the background of this person?
He glanced out of the corner of his eye, and it was a woman in a black motorcycle leather who entered the door. The figure is exquisite, and the tight leather jacket just outlines the exquisiteness. But she was wearing a half-face gas mask, so she couldn't see her face clearly, but her eyes were sharp.
Ji Xun didn't care much about her appearance, but saw the mechanical equipment on her body at first sight.
Although most of it was hidden under the clothes, Ji Xun caught a glimpse of the details, and he immediately recognized what it was.
This is definitely the most sophisticated mechanical equipment he has ever seen.
TR-33 military individual exoskeleton? Anyone can get this stuff?
Haven't seen it, but heard of it.
It is said that it is currently one of the most advanced individual equipment of the federal military. It is a "contraband" if it appears anywhere outside the army!
Identity is not simple.
Ji Xun guessed the identity of the woman in leather, and glanced at the stack of photos handed out by the boss from the corner of his eye.
The photos are all kinds of ancient books, scrolls, or stone carvings, photos with text.
And there are some drawings.
Ji Xun saw at a glance that these seemed to be ancient documents related to machinery.
The steam machinery in this world is not a product of the scientific research of the times, but an archaeological product. Just like the architectural level of the "Devil's Crossing" ruins, it has been immortal for thousands of years, and it is difficult to replicate even now.
The woman in the leather jacket seemed to be very interested in the contents of the photo, and looked at it very intently, but she also frowned, obviously not understanding: "Old man, have you found someone who can translate these mechanical drawings?"
The boss responded: "No. The few scholar sequence spell card masters I know only know a little bit of Taren, and they can't translate many technical terms on the mechanical drawings. If you want to say a polymath who is proficient in Taren, Probably only Dragon City has it.”
“.”
The woman in the leather jacket also seemed a little helpless. The pictures on the blueprints could no longer meet the needs.
Ji Xun listened and took another look at the photo.
There are some strange symbols on it, this is Talun ancient language.
A text that is said to have dated civilizations thousands of years ago.
It wasn't until the discovery of the Old Continent opposite the world rift that people were sure that the legendary mysterious civilization really existed.
Ji found this kind of writing.
The first time was in the 407 different-dimensional space.
Devil's Crossing is actually the ruins of the city of Tarun Dynasty.
The 407 copy restricts the entry of card master apprentices, and the difficulty is very high. At that time, the reason why he could understand it was all due to the enlightenment of the rules of space itself.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun had a thought in his mind: "Hey, if you get that material, wouldn't you be able to master some ancient characters?"
The material I found in the safe was a thick stack.
Not talking about the content, but just talking about the value of words, it is absolutely different from the fragmentary and incomplete documents in the photos in front of you.
Moreover, the death crisis at that time deepened the memory, and Ji Xun can still remember a lot of content now.
With an accurate meaning reference, it will be much easier to decipher.
It's a pity that the materials are in the ninth day.
I don’t know if she took it out of the space.
With a flash of thought, Ji Xun restrained himself.
The girl in leather continued to look at the photos, picking out some from time to time, and asked the boss to prepare the originals to take away.
Ji Xun doesn't have this kind of VIP treatment, he can watch it, he will finish it soon.
He didn't plan to spend too much money in this shop, there are many other shops to visit. When he finally thought of something, he asked casually: "Boss, do you have a breathing method that can absorb several elements at the same time?"
Another person was changed, and the boss returned to his indifferent attitude, and said indifferently, "No."
After a pause, he still did not forget to complain: "You are strange. The purer the spell power is, the safer and more efficient it will be to release the card, and the less likely it will be out of control when it is advanced. On the contrary, you want more How many kinds?"
“.”
Ji Xun is also expected.
He has read it carefully just now, all kinds of breathing methods are based on a single element.
It was just a casual question.
He felt that it was probably the same as what the boss said, absorbing the magic power condensed by a single element is the right way? Or maybe the store is aimed at ordinary people, and those rare breathing methods haven't been involved yet?
But thinking that no matter what, if he can't find a suitable breathing method, his talent of all-element tolerance will be wasted.
What a pity.
Didn't get the desired result, Ji Xun turned around and was about to leave the shop.
But I didn't expect that at this time, the woman in the motorcycle leather jacket suddenly spoke, and said lightly: "You want to need multi-element breathing?"
