Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 113 The bottom of the ladder

Ji Xinghuo was sweating profusely in the training room. He suddenly stopped, wiped his sweat and walked into the living room, where he saw a familiar figure.

"Starfire-kun!"

As soon as Jiangnan Caiyi opened the door and walked in, she saw Ji Xinghuo, with surprise on her face: "When will you come back?"

"A few days ago." Ji Xinghuo replied with a smile.

You don't need to ask to know that Jiangnan Caiyi came back to clean up and take care of Ren Mian's garden.

"Don't Mr. Xinghuo hunt and kill the Fomalhaut clan?" Jiang Nan Caiyi asked.

Ji Xinghuo was stunned for a moment. He had never told Jiangnan Caiyi that he had gone to the Star Boundary Defense Line. He suddenly felt a little strange, "How did you know that I became a bounty hunter?"

"what?"

Jiangnan Caiyi didn't understand the situation for a while, but she soon understood, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xinghuo, so you don't know! You and a few friends hunted and killed the legendary Dagon man. This incident was on the news, and many Everyone knows it!"

"Is it a sensation?" Ji Xinghuo really didn't know the situation.

"It wasn't very sensational, and it was the third most searched in China that day." Jiang Nancai vaguely knew that it was inconvenient for Ji Xinghuo to return to Earth, so she said in detail: "Your friend named Jing Ji gave several interviews, and everyone compared Pay attention to him, although you are mentioned, but not much is said."

"That's good."

Ji Xinghuo smiled and nodded. This was what he asked Jingji to do.

Jiangnan Caiyi chuckled, "One more thing, Mr. Xinghuo, you have climbed the global ladder."

"I'm going to the ladder now?" Ji Xinghuo was quite surprised.

"This was decided by the ADC after investigation, and they created an alien file for you." Jiang Nancaiyi said: "They think you participated in killing the legendary powerhouse, and also created a single-month point record. The record is excellent, which is enough to prove that Your strength surpasses most super aliens, and you can be on the list."

"However, your information and data are too little, and there is no way to interview you face to face, so the ranking for you is not high."

Speaking of this, Jiangnan Caiyi's expression was a little strange.

"Mr. Xinghuo, can you guess where you are on the ladder?"

Ji Xinghuo thought for a while and guessed: "More than nine thousand?"

Jiangnan Caiyi shook her head.

"It won't be more than 8,000, right?"

Ji Xinghuo felt that with his own strength, there would be no problem in entering the top 500 or even the top 100 of the ladder.

If the ADC is really discerning, with some clues, he can guess that he is definitely not ranked at the bottom of the ladder.

Jiangnan Caiyi shook her head again, but no longer pretended, and said softly: "It's the 10000th."

"The last one?" Ji Xinghuo was stunned.

There are only 10,000 places in the global ladder, and he is at the bottom. Although he doesn't care much about rankings and doesn't want to pay too much attention at the moment, being ranked last is a bit funny.

Sometimes, the last one gets a lot of attention and is easy to remember.

Might as well not be on the list.

Jing Ji, Yuan Chongzhen and Alex were already ranked in the ladder before Ji Xinghuo met them.

Jing Ji ranks over 700, Alex ranks around 1,000, and Yuan Chongzhen ranks beyond 3,000. After killing the legendary Dagon, their rankings will inevitably rise a lot.

In comparison, my th place seemed like a joke.

Jiangnan Caiyi also fought for him.

"The people in the center of the ADC ladder are too blind. Mr. Xinghuo's ranking must be at least in the top to be considered reasonable."

"Did they give a reason for the ranking?" Ji Xinghuo asked again.

For every alien on the ladder, the ADC will give some key comments.

Jiangnan Caiyi said: "They think you are only an intermediate ranger, and you have been an alien for less than a year. Although your performance is impressive, there is insufficient information and it remains to be seen, so you are ranked last and the validity period is six months."

This validity period means that you will not be squeezed out of the list within six months.

Unless there is a new record, it will always be at the bottom.

"It's reasonable." Ji Xinghuo thought about it at this moment, and said with a smile: "They don't know me, they only know that I am an intermediate ranger, and they are willing to rank me on the ladder, which is not bad."

It is very rare for mid-level aliens to go up the ladder.

There are basically super aliens on the ladder, there are very few high-level aliens, accounting for less than one percent, and there are only less than ten intermediate aliens.

Ji Xinghuo stopped thinking about it and asked, "Caiyi, how are you preparing for promotion to Super Alien?"

"The star power is still a little short, and I'm already picking the star gland." Jiangnan Caiyi talked about her own situation, but her interest was not very high.

"Come on!" Ji Xinghuo cheered her up.

The two chatted for a while, Jiangnan Caiyi began to get busy.

Ji Xinghuo also continued to go back to practice.

One advantage when Jiangnan Caiyi was here was that there was someone to cook, so there was no need for the restaurant to deliver the food. However, Jiangnan Caiyi only stayed for one day before returning to Earth.

Ji Xinghuo returned to the days of practicing alone, and went out every day to participate in actual combat training in the Jidao Martial Arts Hall.

The star power gradually increased and exceeded 450 points.

If he continued to practice like this, his star power would reach the mid-level upper limit without using two astral moons, triggering the third life evolution.

By then, the star power is expected to be around 500 points.

This was almost the same as the star power of an ordinary high-level alien when he was approaching his fourth evolution. However, Ji Xinghuo himself was not satisfied.

There are several abilities that can be upgraded.

For example, Thousand-Dexterous Hands and Ether Affinity, both powers are level three, and it only takes more than a thousand points of spiritual energy to upgrade to level four.

Every life evolution has a chance to trigger the advancement of supernatural powers, integrating deeper with oneself, so you can't miss it.

The higher the ability level, the greater the probability of triggering advancement.

But there is no spiritual energy!

After practicing for half a month, Ji Xinghuo finally couldn't hold back anymore.

The severed part of the left arm has already healed, and there is no trace of the severed part, and I can't feel any sequelae, so I packed my bags again and set off for the Sword Valley Fortress.

Sword Valley Fortress is located east and south of Olympia, almost 500 kilometers away from Dongjiguan, Zhongpoint Fortress and Olympia.

It took more than four hours to arrive at Jiangu Fortress by airship.

There are more than seventy fortresses or fortresses on the Star Boundary Defense Line. The geographical importance of Sword Valley Fortress can be ranked in the top ten.

As its name suggests, the fortress is built in a narrow canyon more than ten kilometers long, with straight cliffs hundreds of meters high on both sides. The narrowest point is less than 200 meters. The fortress is located in it, firmly guarding the passage. It's true that one man can't stand a chance and ten thousand men can't open it.

The city size and garrison of Sword Valley Fortress are far inferior to Midpoint Fortress.

The risk of occupying the terrain does not require too many garrisons at all.

Ji Xinghuo had heard Yuan Chongzhen say before that there were only two legends in charge of the Sword Valley Fortress, and the total number of armies from all countries was less than 30,000.

Including bounty hunters, civilians, merchants, and various facilities and staff serving the military, the permanent population of Sword Valley Fortress is approximately 40,000 to 50,000.

Ji Xinghuo walked in the long and narrow fortress and checked into a hotel.

This hotel is well-equipped with archery ranges, training rooms, martial arts fields, swimming pools, etc. It has a private environment and first-class service, but of course the price is higher.

Ji Xinghuo didn't care about this.

This time he came to Sword Valley Fortress, his plan was to relax and not hunt as intensively as he did in Midpoint Fortress last month. To avoid too much impact on the enemies in this line of defense, the hunting range should be expanded. , spread out some.

Only in this way can the water flow smoothly and be safer.

After settling in, Ji Xinghuo went out to look for Yuan Chongzhen, and found him in a hotel not far away.

"Xinghuo!" Yuan Chongzhen was surprised to see Ji Xinghuo, and stood up abruptly, "I thought you were just talking, but you actually came!"

Ji Xinghuo stepped forward, hugged him, and said with a smile, "Why aren't you welcome?"

"Of course you're welcome!"

Yuan Chongzhen patted Ji Xinghuo on the shoulder. There were three people beside him, all dressed as bounty hunters. He introduced: "Come, let me introduce you. This is Ji Xinghuo, the powerful one I told you." Ranger."

Then he introduced three people to Ji Xinghuo, all of whom were his friends, two men and one woman.

They looked at Ji Xinghuo, full of curiosity.

Ji Xinghuo still looks like a ranger, wearing light ceramic armor, carrying a black composite bow, and a sword hanging on the left side of his waist. But what is a little strange is that in addition to the composite bow and quiver, there is also a A long sword in a thermoplastic scabbard, with the hilt protruding from the left shoulder.

Rangers are capable of both near and far, and are usually equipped with melee weapons, but it is rare to see one with a full range of swords like Ji Xinghuo.

Yuan Chongzhen also noticed the long sword Ji Xinghuo was carrying, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Who would have thought that this sword was a super powerful three-star weapon worth over million?

Ji Xinghuo sat down.

He chatted with Yuan Chongzhen and the three bounty hunters, and one of the bounty hunters suddenly said: "I went back to Earth a few days ago, and saw that you are at the 2407th place on the ladder, and Brother Yuan is at the th place."

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Although the bounty hunter's tone was relaxed and seemed harmless, Ji Xinghuo could tell that the other party was also a ranger, and he was a little unconvinced by Yuan Chongzhen's boasting about himself.

Ji Xinghuo didn't care.

Whether others are convinced or not, what does it have to do with yourself?

On the contrary, Yuan Chongzhen's face darkened, "Junjie, do you doubt Xinghuo's strength?"

"That's not what I meant, I'm just a little curious. Intermediate rangers can actually participate in battles with legendary powerhouses..."

Before finishing speaking, Yuan Chongzhen interrupted: "Do you think that everyone is like you, a high-level ranger, and only dare to hunt and kill one or two enemies alone? The number of enemies hunted by Xinghuo in one day can match you in two months Don't talk nonsense about things you haven't seen before, there are many geniuses in this world who are better than you!"

"I..." The ranger still wanted to argue.

Yuan Chongzhen was not interested in listening anymore, "Xinghuo can go up the ladder to heaven, even if he is the last one, when will you go up the ladder to show me?"

The ranger blushed and was speechless.

"Chongzhen, don't say a few words." Ji Xinghuo hurried out to smooth things over, "Junjie has no malicious intentions, we are all friends, just a few jokes."

"Okay, let's not talk." Yuan Chongzhen nodded immediately, "Drink!"

All three bounty hunters saw it.

Yuan Chongzhen, who usually speaks his mind, has a completely different attitude towards Ji Xinghuo than others. He seems to put himself in a lower position.

However, Ji Xinghuo himself had no airs and talked and laughed with everyone, just like an ordinary bounty hunter.

From time to time, Ji Xinghuo asked about the defense line near Jiangu Fortress.

When he was full of wine and food, Ji Xinghuo rejected Yuan Chongzhen's proposal to hunt and kill the enemy together when he left. He just wants to act alone now.

That night.

Ji Xinghuo went out and returned to Jiangu Fortress at dawn.

This night, he harvested more than twenty trophies and handed them over to the bounty office. The bounty and points he received were not very high.

The spiritual source can get more than 30 points.

Ji Xinghuo put all his energy into Ether Affinity, rested for a few hours, and then started a day of training in the hotel's training ground.

At night, they went out to hunt the enemy again, and returned with the spoils at dawn.

day to day.

Ji Xinghuo never attacked the entire patrol. He usually only killed the bounty hunters of the Fomalhaut clan and eliminated the small number of hidden sentries. This was within the normal casualty range of both sides' defense lines.

Occasionally, he would hunt his target at a greater distance, spreading out the enemy's casualties.

Therefore, it did not attract Fomalhaut's attention.

The spiritual energy harvested every day is very stable, between 30 and 50 points, sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less.

"Ye Yue" passed in the blink of an eye, and when he entered "Qui Yue", Ji Xinghuo had already upgraded his Ether Affinity and Thousand Dexterity Hands to one level.

Neither ability progresses when leveled up.

Ether Affinity is (1th level 7079/1), Thousand Dexterous Hands is (4987th level /).

The star power also increased to more than 470 points.

Just when Ji Xinghuo was about to continue harvesting spiritual energy, upgrade the Golden Scale Iron Spine to level four, and then be promoted to a high-level alien in Sword Valley Fortress, something unexpected happened.

The three arrows on the Vientiane Xingpupil interface, the largest one, suddenly moved significantly!
