Chapter 780 Before entering the city

On the hillside a few kilometers away from the outer city of the imperial capital, the afternoon sun was particularly bright.

Lao Zheng, Ajie, and Chu Xuan were standing at the highest point of the hillside, looking at the majestic and outrageous super city a few kilometers away.

Holding the binoculars, Lao Zheng observed the patrol posts on the city wall, and said, "It's really special. The architecture of ALB and Europa is mixed and matched, but the common language is Chinese. It is obviously a social environment dominated by medieval fantasy styles. But it also carries a lot of unique elements of the 21st century, and what's even more outrageous is that without the development of industrial technology civilization, the city defense soldiers carry assault rifles... Tsk tsk, I don't even know how to complain."

Ajie, who was standing on Old Zheng's left, said, "After all, it is derived from the plot world of anime, no matter how weird it is, there will be a reasonable explanation. By the way, Colonel Chu, how is the situation now?"

As he spoke, Ajie looked at Chu Xuan who was standing on Lao Zheng's right.

At this time, there are two holographic interfaces in front of Chu Xuan, one is the bird's-eye view image of the city fed back by the high-precision monitoring satellite in real time, and the other is the communication interface connected with a specific mobile phone.

After flipping through the contents of the communication interface, Chu Xuan responded, "Little Zhan hasn't noticed any abnormalities for the time being. It seems that our previous affairs have not attracted attention in the imperial capital. At least so far, there is no one of us on the public list of wanted criminals." People's information. However, the "Night Raid" killer organization has been wanted for a long time, but people's attention to "Night Raid" is relatively low. It seems that it is still at the beginning of the plot, or in the early stage stage."

"It's good news—does Colonel Chu have any plans?" Lao Zheng put down his binoculars and looked at Chu Xuan.

"No, all planning is based on the premise of sufficient useful information - as you said before, Old Zheng, stay in the city first, and then slowly collect information before making the next decision."

"That's right..." X2

"You guys, are you disappointed?" Chu Xuan looked up at Old Zheng and Ajie.

"Uh..."

The expressions of the two were a little unnatural.

Chu Xuan didn't care, but said, "I'm good at doing detailed planning and scope deduction. What I can achieve is based on the degree of sufficient intelligence and information. In short, I'm just a genetically modified person. Not a god, maybe not even the 'Chu Xuan' from "Infinite Horror", just like you are not Zheng Zha and Zhang Jie in the novel. So, please don't deify me too much."

"Ah, that, sorry." Old Zheng apologized embarrassedly.

"Haha, Colonel Chu doesn't need to worry about it, haha..." Bald-headed Ajie laughed dryly, haha.

"I didn't care, I was just stating the facts and using this to eliminate some unnecessary hidden dangers."

"Hidden, hidden danger?" Old Zheng and Ajie were a little at a loss.

Chu Xuan pushed down his glasses and said lightly, "Yes. Although your behavior of having high expectations of me has a positive effect on my status in this group, it also has very serious hidden dangers.

After all, when high expectations get negative feedback, it can make everything very bad.

That's not the situation I want to see. "

"really..."

Old Zheng and Ajie nodded suddenly.

At this point, Lao Zheng and Ajie didn't say much about it.

Even in the hearts of Old Zheng and Ajie, it would be better if the Chu Xuan in front of him was not the one from "Infinite Horror".

After all, the character in the novel is terrible on every level.

Afterwards, the three of them went down the hill together.

In a forest at the foot of the hillside, apart from Xiao Zhan, Chen Hu and others were chatting beside the horses and luggage, and at the small round table not far to their left, Nangong Xiao and Tokisaki Kuangsan were sitting opposite each other .

At this moment, Tokisaki Kumzo was holding a transparent crystal stone the size of a thumb joint, and according to Nangong Xiao's request, he was pouring magic power into it little by little.

Nangong Xiao, on the other hand, not only carefully observed the instillation process, but also carefully recorded everything.

After Lao Zheng and the others came back, Chen Hu and the others also came forward to inquire about the situation, and Ajie simply said something, telling everyone to pack up and go directly to the city.

Chen Hu and others went to clean up after hearing the words, while Lao Zheng and Chu Xuan came to Nangong Xiao and Tokisaki Kuangsan.

At this time, after Nangong Xiao recorded the last data, he said, "It's ok, let's go here first."

Tokisaki Kurumi stopped instilling magic power into the crystal, and while returning the crystal to Nangong Xiao, he said, "Don't you need to fill it up?"

"No need. Judging from the data, it is basically verified that there is no obstacle to the active instillation of carbon matrix magic power, which is enough."

"That's it..." Tokisaki Kurumi, who was somewhat confused, had no choice but to nod.

Regarding this crystal stone, even Tokisaki Kurumi, who has an excellent mentality, is still shocked and hard to dispel.

She didn't expect that Nangong Xiao could get out the replica of the spirit crystal in just a few days.

Or the kind that is 'rubbed' with bare hands.

Yes, this crystal is a replica of the spirit crystal!

Although the existence form is different from the spirit crystal that tends to the energy crystal, Tokisaki Kurumi can still clearly perceive that this crystal is indeed a weakened version of the spirit crystal.

In other words, on a certain level, someone has been able to mass-produce the 'elf' in "Yue Zhan".

Similarly, Lao Zheng, Chu Xuan and others who had known about this crystal stone earlier in the morning were equally shocked.

After all, Lao Zheng and the others have also learned about the plot of "Yue Zhan" and the related settings of the spirit crystal from Ajie, and they also know how terrifying the value contained in this crystal is.

It is also because they understand the value of this thing that Lao Zheng and others will always pay attention to Nangong Xiao's progress.

Seeing that Nangong Xiao had stopped collecting data, Lao Zheng asked with great anticipation, "Mr. Nangong, is everything going well?"

Nangong Xiao stuck the replica of the spirit crystal into a palm-sized hand-held testing instrument, and while letting it collect data continuously, said, "It's pretty smooth, and the mysterious circuit structure of the artificial spirit crystal has been fully completed. At present, the functional parameters are in a relatively ideal state. Well, give me another two days to do the final verification test. If there is no problem, you can try to transplant it into the carbon matrix-but you are sure to do the test Members? You should know that there must be uncontrollable risks during the period."

Old Zheng asked expectantly, "Well, may I ask, how big is the risk?"

Nangong Xiao thought for a while and said, "According to preliminary estimates, the risk of directly endangering life is less than 20%. The overall risk estimate is less than 30%."

"So low?!"

Old Zheng couldn't help but exclaimed, and Ajie, Chen Hu and others in the distance quickly surrounded him, all looking at Nangong Xiao expectantly.

Chapter 781 Colonel Chu’s Decision

Nangong Xiao said, "It's okay. After all, I did it myself. Theoretically, if there is no annihilation of body and spirit, then even if I die, I am sure to save it. But, this is a knife to the heart after all. Do you really have the courage to entrust life and death to an outsider like me who just met?"

"This..."

Being asked such a question, Lao Zheng and the others didn't know what to say.

On the contrary, Chu Xuan asked calmly, "Mr. Nangong, what kind of existence does a person who has been implanted with artificial spirit crystals undergo surgery? Is it an 'elf' who tends to conceptual life forms? Or is it a special reformed person?"

"It's the latter." Nangong Xiao replied, "So far, I haven't been able to make ordinary people evolve into 'elfs' of conceptual life forms. After all, it involves the application of certain rules, which are no longer within the scope of the material world." Yes, for the current me, it belongs to the super-class content.”

After Chu Xuan nodded slightly, he asked again, "Then, what about the magic power recovery method of the artificial spirit crystal? The biological energy of the human body? Or does it need to devour the living life like Miss Tokisaki?"

"To be precise, what Sansan devours is not living life, but life energy and the concept of time." Nangong Xiao corrected Chu Xuan's wording slightly, and then said, "As for the artificial spirit crystal I made, there is no Sansan's devouring ability, the concept of time, I can't build a devouring circuit for the time being, but the structure of converting life energy into magic power is not difficult, but that thing doesn't have much meaning, so I won't build it. Well, my artificial spirit crystal , now there are three charging methods, which are enough to solve the charging problem.”

"Which three?"

"One is the biological energy of the human body. The stronger the physique, the higher the efficiency of charging the spirit crystal. The second is to automatically absorb the ubiquitous magic elements in the air, and the efficiency depends on the concentration of the magic elements in the air. The third is to actively recharge So far, I have only engraved the conversion circuit structure of two common energy sources, conventional electric energy and atomic energy, on the artificial spirit crystal. After all, electric energy and atomic energy are more universal and generally easier to obtain. These are the three. "

After Chu Xuan slightly nodded, he said, "The last question, how uncontrollable is the influence of artificial spirit crystals on human genes?"

"There is no exact answer yet." Nangong Xiao shook his head and said, "I let the quantum supercomputer do hundreds of millions of simulation calculations, and the conclusions I got are still very vague, so I can only confirm it temporarily. Under the scouring of the converted magic power, the physical fitness of human beings will continue to become stronger. With sufficient magic power to nourish, the physique of ordinary people can be strengthened to at least about the fourth level, um, which is about the same as that of Old Zheng. The upper limit , about between the fifth and sixth order, more accurate data will only be known after the entity verification process.”

At this time, Ajie said with a face full of surprise, "Mr. Nangong, can I understand that as long as the operation is successful and there is enough magic power to provide, then he can quickly become stronger than me and Lao Zheng?"

"It can be understood in this way, and the more abundant the supply of magic power, the shorter the time to reach your level. Ideally, one or two weeks can make an ordinary person no worse than you, or even worse than you." You are stronger." Nangong Xiao paused, and then said, "Of course, this is just physical fitness, artificial spirit crystals can also allow implanters to have the ability to control basic magic elements. Simply put, it suddenly becomes Mutants or superpowers, such as setting fire and playing with water, are all basic operations, and if you have some application knowledge related to magic, you can also become a real magician."

As if for Lao Zheng and others to understand more intuitively, Nangong Xiao then added, "In general, the artificial spirit crystal I created is equivalent to a special battery that can continuously strengthen the body after implanted in the body. In addition to continuously strengthening the body, the magic power in the battery can also be used arbitrarily according to the subjective cognition of the implanter.

The method of charging is also very simple. One is to replenish bioenergy by eating and drinking. It is best to eat food that contains magic power. The principle is to convert bioenergy into magic power and finally store it in the battery.The second is to allow the artificial spirit crystal to absorb the ubiquitous magic power in the air through the human body. The efficiency is a little bit worse, but the limitation is better.The third is to directly use the human body as a medium to absorb common energy sources such as light energy, electric energy, and atomic energy, and determine the absorption efficiency according to the strength of the human body. Of course, when the body is too weak, do not directly touch the high-voltage line, otherwise it will exceed the upper limit of the human body. Will be electrocuted.

The magic power of the artificial spirit crystal collected through the above three methods will be like blood, and it will continue to circulate in the body according to the pre-structured human magic power circuit, so as to achieve the link of strengthening the human body quality at all times.Well, that's about it. "

Hearing what Nangong Xiao said, Lao Zheng and the others understood it, and they were even more shocked after they understood it.

But soon they were a little uneasy.

After all, this is also an implantation of a heart knife, and it seems that it is still a technology in the experimental stage.

Under such circumstances, they really didn't have the courage to become guinea pigs, at least the three newcomers Chen Hu didn't have it yet.

Old Zheng and Ajie were better, but they still couldn't make up their minds directly.

And Chu Xuan, after a little silence, said, "Mr. Nangong, I am willing to be the first experimenter."

"Oh? Are you sure?" Nangong Xiao raised his head and looked at him.

"I'm sure."

"Is it... okay."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." Nangong Xiao nodded, and then said, "Senior Colonel Chu, have you ever thought about solving your own genetic defects?"

Chu Xuan paused slightly, and asked, "Mr. Nangong can solve my problem?"

"The world I live in has very mature genetic modification technology, and it is not difficult to repair the defects caused by your relatively primitive genetic modification."

"...If possible, I also very much hope to experience the ups and downs of ordinary people. Mr. Nangong, I will trouble you again."

"Really, I have to explain in advance that if your genetic defect is repaired, it will inevitably gradually complement the five senses, emotions and six desires. This is not necessarily a good thing under certain circumstances. For example, when absolute reason is required, a comprehensive The human emotional mechanism can be a hindrance. I know that very well."

Chu Xuan's eyes were fixed, "I have a deep understanding... Could it be Mr. Nangong... I'm sorry."

"It's not something inconvenient to say. I used to be in a similar situation to you. I belong to people who lack emotions and five sense systems."

"?!" Tokisaki Kurumi and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes.

Nangong Xiao continued indifferently, "Of course, I'm fine now. As someone who has experienced it, I know very well that the emotional system of normal human beings may not be all positive under certain circumstances."

"Thank you for the reminder. However, if I have the opportunity to experience the feeling of 'humanity', I still want to experience it."

"In this case, after we settle down, I'll help you repair the gene defect, and then perform the artificial spirit crystal implantation operation."

"Thank you." Chu Xuan bowed to thank him very carefully.

"You're welcome." After Nangong Xiao nodded to accept his thanks, he looked at Lao Zheng and the others and said, "In the next few weeks, my focus will be on the safety and application verification of artificial spirit crystals, so in terms of intelligence collection, I'll leave it to you. Well, in return, I can implant artificial spirit crystals for you, and it depends on you personally whether you are willing or not."

Old Zheng said quickly, "Mr. Nangong, you are welcome. Since we are a team, our information sharing is a matter of course."

The bald-headed Ajie quickly agreed, "Yes, Mr. Nangong, don't worry, we will leave the information collection to us."

"Yes, yes." Chen Hu and other newcomers also quickly expressed their opinions, although their attitudes are not important.

"If that's the case, then please everyone." After slightly nodding, Nangong Xiao looked at Tokisaki Kurumi, and said, "San San, don't rush to attack 'Night Raid' from now on, and you can also add it appropriately." A fire."

"Add fire... What Mr. Nangong means is that I, like the 'Night Raid', will create terror in the imperial capital and speed up the speed at which the high-level empire gathers Tegu envoys to deal with it?" Tokisaki Kurumi suddenly understood coming.

"Yes, but you must grasp the scale."

"That's it, people know."

"In that case, let's go into town."

"it is good."

Chapter 782

The process of Nangong Xiao and his party entering the imperial capital was very smooth, so smooth that they led their horses into the city in such a grandiose manner.

The reason why it went so smoothly was not that the imperial capital of this country did not have a management system for the floating population, but that the country had become unbelievably rotten.

For example, there are registrations and routine inspections at the city gates, and even under normal circumstances, the guards at the city gates also have to examine the travel vouchers or customs clearance documents that must be possessed by those entering the city.

The so-called travel vouchers are actually the approvals issued by various counties, cities, and towns to the traveling population, while the certificates of approval are the certificates issued by the border guards for caravans, envoys, travelers, etc. who enter the empire through the border. Like a travel ticket, it is a form of identity proof.

Under normal circumstances, Nangong Xiao and his party without identification would not be able to enter the city, and they might be detained for interrogation.

But in essence, the current city gate guards don’t even bother to check the travel vouchers and customs clearance documents. They only ask the people entering the city for symbolic purposes, register their names and belongings, and check the entry documents. Look at the appearance of the people in the city to see if they are wanted criminals. If not, they can enter the city directly after paying the city entry tax.

And if it is carrying a lot of goods, the city gate guards also blatantly ask for extra benefits. If they pay, they can let the goods on the carriage without inspection. If they don’t pay, they will wait for strict inspection, and various Make things difficult.

During the process of entering the city, Nangong Xiao and the others witnessed the scene of the city gate guards blackmailing the caravan, especially the way most of the people who came and went did not take this scene seriously, so Nangong Xiao and the others couldn't help but look sideways.

One must know that this is the capital of a country, and if the capital of a country is rotten like this, one can imagine the situation in that place.

It can be seen from this that this country is really rotten to the bone.

After entering the imperial capital, let's not talk about the prosperity and majesty on the surface of the city and the darkness and corruption behind the scenes.

Nangong Xiao and his group quickly met Xiao Zhan, and under the leadership of Xiao Zhan, they went straight to the ideal temporary foothold that Xiao Zhan had found.

It was a four-story building with a single floor of nearly [-] square meters that was being leased at the junction of the old city and the new city in the east of the city.

Although the imperial capital is known as every inch of land, it is also divided into sections, such as the old city, which is completely a slum, and the public security and living environment are extremely bad, so the price is destined to be low. Although the junction of the old city and the new city is better, it is also Not much better, so the price is not so outrageous.

And because the price is not outrageous, Lao Zheng and the others can eat it, otherwise they will have to use the gold they exchanged from the main god in advance.
