Oring Hunter

Bending down and sitting on a solid wooden chair, gently touching the smooth surface with his fingers, Yechen looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was extremely nervous inside.

After entering the fourth nightmare realm, he still couldn't get a clue of his life experience from the diary left by his mentor Lyle, but he was very eager to understand this matter as soon as possible.

Therefore, Yechen decided to go to the archives on the upper level of Hunter's Peak, so as to search for Lyle's archives in this place to find another way out.

I don't know if this trip will pay off...

With this in mind, Ye Chen exhaled lightly.

Ten minutes later, another staff member of the archives quickly walked into the waiting room, and then placed the thick file bag in his hand in front of Yechen's desk.

"Hello, here are your query results, please return them completely after checking."

After hearing this, Ye Chen nodded his head to the other party with a grateful expression, then opened the file bag with slightly trembling palms, and brought stacks of hunter files inside to his eyes one by one...

After more than half an hour of reading and checking, Ye Chen got to know a total of 44 'Lyle' who had served in the hunting group in the past.

It's just that most of them are deceased. The one with the latest date was buried in the hunter's cemetery ten years ago, while the one with the earliest date dates back to thousands of years ago. The report left by the person has also been confirmed to be completely dead.

Only the last remaining nine Lyles lost their whereabouts in the maze in the past, and were officially defined as unknown by the hunting group.

However, whether it is their ancient sketch portraits or modern black-and-white photos, their facial features are very different from Yechen's teacher, and they are not the same person at all.

After browsing all the files on the desktop, Ye Chen couldn't help but sighed in disappointment.

He didn't know that the teacher's real information was not enough, and now he had the authority to make inquiries, or that the so-called Lyle was simply a pseudonym made up by his teacher.

All in all, after realizing that he got nothing, Yechen simply returned all the files, and then walked out of the archives gate with a flat face.

And his next destination is the Relic Hall, which is also located in the hunting group's reserve area.

It was a long-standing dome hall, as if it was a huge handicraft of an ancient sculptor, and the surface of the building with an artistic atmosphere was covered with traces of years of wind and frost.

The surrounding hunting group guards are fully armed, with indifferent and resolute expressions, like a supernatural army that can enter the battlefield anytime and anywhere, quietly guarding the safety and order of this palace.

And the most conspicuous thing is the faint light dust condensed by the power of the mysterious spirit floating out from the room of the relic hall...

Compared with the innumerable pieces of gold and silver wealth stored in the big treasury, in the eyes of most nightmare sensors, this weather-beaten relic hall is the real treasure.

Because, it is the place where the Olympian Hunting Group used to store the relics of the unowned labyrinth.

For active hunters, a competent and powerful labyrinth relic is enough to double their strength, and its value seems to be worth gold and silver mountains, so this relic hall has naturally become the reserve area of ​​the hunting group The most important treasure house.

After passing the psychological intention review by the security team and the relic quality inspection by the appraisal team, Yechen, who only had the only weapon of "Langtao Water Knife" all over his body, walked into the ancient arch of the Relic Hall and arrived at The central hall of the Relic Hall.

This is a hall with an octagonal shape. The bright lights illuminate the black marble floor crystal clear, and the iron gates at the corners are connected to different areas in the relic hall.

Tasting the strong mystical power in the air, Yechen immediately felt refreshed, and his eyes involuntarily shone with anticipation.

The person in charge of the daily acceptance work of the Hall of Relics is sitting at the business counter in the central hall at this moment.

His name is Tommy. He has long pointed ears, bright yellow skin, short stature, huge eyes, and sparse Mediterranean hair. His strange appearance reveals his alien identity.

A hundred years ago, there were quite a few aliens like Tommy who worked in the hunting group, and there were quite a few of them in the active hunter group at that time.

It's just that time has passed, and in this era, almost all aliens gather in aliens to live an ordinary life, and Tommy is also the only alien worker in the hunting group, so it can be said to be a very rare existence.

Every Olympian hunter needs to apply in advance if he wants to visit the Hall of Relics, so before Ye Chen walked into the central hall, Tommy knew the news of his upcoming arrival in advance.

"Hello, respected bloodsmith hunter."

Tommy opened his big eyes and greeted Yechen with a polite expression. Obviously, like the previous archives staff, he knew Yechen's previous deeds and name.

"What are you doing here today?"

Tommy then asked.

"I want to come here to pick a suitable fourth-order labyrinth relic."

Ye Chen confessed calmly.

"Oh? Is it a fourth-order labyrinth relic?"

Knowing Yechen's intention to come here, Tommy put his hands together with a smile and said, "So, what type of labyrinth relic do you want? Do you have any special preferences?"

Yechen replied without hesitation: "I hope to get an offensive relic that can be used as a weapon. If possible, it is best to be a cold weapon such as a sword."

Tommy nodded his head lightly, his eyes flickering thoughtfully for a while.

"A fourth-order offensive relic like a sword..."

While muttering softly, he took out the list of relics in his arms, glanced quickly between the densely packed writing for a while, then looked up at Yechen, and smiled with a complicated expression.

"A similar relic that can meet your expectations, although we do have it here, but now there is only one left, and its relic effect may seem so strange that it is difficult to control..."

After listening to Tommy's description, Ye Chen responded in a flat tone: "It's okay, can you take me to have a look first?"

Tommy bowed his head politely, and agreed immediately: "Understood, please follow me."

Chapter 0512

After the words fell, Tommy took the corresponding key, opened one of the corner iron doors in the central hall, and then led Yechen all the way to the relic storage area inside the relic hall.

Although I still don't know what the only sword-type labyrinth relic will look like, but being able to find the type of relic I want here is enough to satisfy Yechen's heart.

Most of the labyrinth relics contained in the Relic Hall come from retired hunters in the past.

After unloading the hunter's burden, they will basically not be exposed to any life-and-death fighting in the rest of their lives, so they often choose to sell the relics of the maze in their hands to the relic hall of the hunting group at a high price, and the hunting group will redistribute these labyrinths. The relics are provided to active hunters with sufficient qualifications to improve their combat effectiveness and survivability, thereby helping the hunting group to develop better.

However, although the original intention of the establishment of the Relic Hall was to realize such a set of virtuous circle theory, most of the labyrinth relics that the hunters took out after retiring were scarred or even on the verge of damage...

In order to avoid harming the active hunters who took over later, the Hall of Relics will only accept labyrinth relics of sufficient quality from veteran hunters.

Therefore, in fact, the total amount of relics stored in the Relic Hall in any period in the past is not very large.

For example, in the age of Yechen, its total inventory is only more than 1000 labyrinth relics. From the first level to the end of the fifth level, the number decreases step by step, and the overall distribution fits the pyramid model.

The current hunter group of the hunting group is about [-] in total, and the treasures in the relic hall are obviously not enough for everyone to share.

Based on this realistic situation, the hunting group will formulate the following rule:

Only hunters with at least seniority and status above "veteran hunter" are eligible to enter the relic hall, and each maze relic will make different requirements for the selector according to its quality, there is no corresponding nightmare realm and corresponding career contribution, It is impossible to select high-level maze relics to achieve the concept of the most reasonable allocation of resources.

Because of this, it is very rare to find the type you prefer among the rare labyrinth relics.

Fortunately, the bloodsmith hunter was lucky today, but it was his first visit to the Hall of Relics, and among the fourth-tier labyrinth relics contained here, there was only one of his preferred type left.

Yechen followed Tommy through the inner passage of the Palace of Relics, passed several well-armed security patrol teams, opened the heavy iron gate under the watchful eyes of the surrounding guards, and finally arrived at one of the Palace of Relics Relic Containment Area.

What appeared before the eyes of the bloodsmith hunter was a long, dark corridor with glass windows on both sides that were closed by iron plates.

At first glance, the scene looks like a well-decorated prison.

It's just that the power of the mysterious spirit floating in the air tells the extraordinary and refined identities of the prisoners behind the iron plate.

Tommy led Yechen to the depths of the corridor, during which the two passed through every closed glass window mirror, and the nearby walls were engraved with corresponding numbers with iron square plates.

The blood craftsman hunter knows well that what is contained inside these glass windows are the labyrinth relics contained by the hunting group.

The reason why the management of the Palace of Relics used thick iron plates to seal their rooms airtight was because these labyrinth relics were all unowned.

Once there are nightmare sensors nearby, they will float towards them on their own and ask for the contract ceremony. Therefore, if these mysterious things are to be kept properly, each labyrinth relic must be individually restrained and isolated.

After walking towards the inside of the containment area for a few minutes, Tommy quickly stopped in front of one of the glass windows.

Ye Chen glanced at the iron plate in front of him, and found that the number recorded on it was "831".

"Hmm... Relic No. 831, that's right here."

Holding a booklet in both hands, Tommy glanced at the densely packed records with his big eyes wearing presbyopic glasses, then took out a small remote control device from his pocket, pointed it at the glass window in front of him, and activated a certain switch button.

click...

Accompanied by the sound of the gears running, the iron plate on the inside went up by itself, thus officially revealing the contents of the glass window for Ye Chen.

This is a pure white cubic room, surrounded by empty steel walls, and a steel pillar stands in the center of the room.

There is something suspended in the sky above the top of the stage, silently releasing a rich white light, making the whole room look dazzling and noble.

Ye Chen looked carefully and found that it was an object similar to a long sword. The slender black hilt was connected to the cross-shaped sword handle, and then connected to the straight, pure white scabbard below.

The surface of the scabbard is engraved with delicate spiral lines, which sometimes shine and sometimes dim, like the circuit conduit of a machine, which is running in an orderly manner, so that the whole sword slowly rotates in the quiet air. middle.

The bloodsmith hunter's interest was immediately aroused by the strange existence in front of him.

At the same time, Tommy on the side introduced the other party's identity to Yechen in a leisurely manner.

"This fourth-order labyrinth relic is named 'Energy-carrying Heavy Sheath', and it fits your preference for weapons like swords."

"'Energy-carrying heavy sheath'..."

The bright blue eyes carefully looked at the floating things inside the glass window wall, Ye Chen subconsciously repeated its name, and then consulted Tommy:

"I remember that you commented that its relic effect is very strange and difficult to control... Regarding this point, can you please explain it in detail for me now?"

Tommy nodded respectfully.

"Yes, the nature of this fourth-order labyrinth relic is indeed very special..."

"And the main reason... is that it is not a complete sword."

"What is presented to you is just a combination of hilt, shank, and scabbard, and there is actually no sword body inside."

Hearing this, Yechen's face suddenly showed more intense interest, so he asked further:

"Oh? A weapon without a blade? So how do you use it?"

While scanning the list of relics in his hand, Tommy slowly explained to Yechen:

"Hmm... According to the previous owner's description, this fourth-order labyrinth relic is like a heavy engine..."

Chapter 0513 A High Price

"It requires the contractor to inject his own mysterious power into it. Only when the total amount of energy carried exceeds a certain threshold can he condense himself into a powerful sword in the form of energy."

"On the one hand, the demand for this kind of arcane power as fuel is generally terrifying. Every time it is used, it will cause a lot of spiritual power consumption for the contractor, and it is not enough to have enough arcane power. A contract is also required. A person possesses a finely crafted ability to shape their own strength."

"Although the cost of this use is very troublesome, on the other hand, when it can successfully exert its effect, it can multiply the previously accumulated energy and burst out, allowing the contractor to easily display it. A large-scale terrorist killing."

"At the cost of the contractor's great mental strength, in exchange for a powerful explosive destructive power, it is like the 'overload' or 'overload' phenomenon of electrical equipment."

"In summary, this "Energy-carrying Heavy Sheath" is equivalent to a heavy weapon with a high threshold. It costs a lot to use, and the benefits in exchange are also large."

After listening to Tommy's detailed introduction, Yechen nodded thoughtfully.

"I see, no wonder it has strange effects and is difficult to control..."

The bloodsmith hunter muttered softly, while raising his hand to stroke his chin, but his azure blue eyes were already full of surprise.

This fourth-order labyrinth relic does not have a substantial sword body, but requires the contractor to temporarily forge the sword body with abundant and precise self-power...

Isn't such a peculiar relic characteristic just a perfect match with his ability as a blood craftsman!

It seems that today's trip to the Relic Hall is extremely lucky!

Ye Chen felt so emotional in his mind, and immediately expressed his thoughts directly to Tommy.

"Okay, then I've decided to take this labyrinth relic."

Tommy looked up at Ye Chen in surprise, and then reminded him in a solemn tone:

"Uh, Mr. Bloodsmith, is it really okay for you to make a decision so quickly?"

"Maybe I wasn't clear enough just now... Actually, this labyrinth relic is really difficult to use. Its previous owner also suffered several times because of this effect..."

"In addition to swords, we also house other offensive relics here, why don't I show you all of them first?"

Yechen looked down at the black ring watch, thinking in his heart that it was still early anyway, and there was really no need to be anxious, so he decisively accepted Tommy's kindness.

"Well, that's right, then there will be you, Mr. Tommy."

So, Tommy then led Ye Chen to continue to browse the remaining fourth-order labyrinth relics stored in the relic hall.

However, after wandering through the treasure house of the Relic Hall for several hours, checking and knowing the identities and characteristics of all the relics in the fourth-order labyrinth, the bloodsmith hunter finally chose to return to the original location.

Standing outside the glass window wall, staring at the dangling scabbard inside, Ye Chen still had no intention of changing his mind.

"Mr. Tommy, I've decided to let it go, please tell me the price."

Seeing that Ye Chen had made up his mind, Tommy stopped obstructing him.
