Chapter 23 Devil’s Cross Ruins(1/2)
Ji Xun was originally curious about what the outside world was like, but as soon as he came out, he heard Chujiu's voice.
The urgency in his tone already indicated something.
Without any hesitation at all, he followed and dived into the mist.
There was thick fog all around, and Ji Xun didn't know where he was. It seemed to be night and there was no light.
Fortunately, the [joker card] was fused before, and the night vision ability has been greatly enhanced, and the vision is generally unobstructed.
The ground is made of concrete, and looking at the black shadows around it, it looks like there are some very tall buildings.
Ji Xun speculated that this should be in a certain building complex.
Weeds, cracks, shadows of unknown creatures...there are traces of dilapidation left by time everywhere, and it looks like the ruins of an ancient city.
Chujiu didn't say anything, just led the way, walking quickly all the way.
It wasn't until they reached a platform that the two stopped.
Ji Xun looked around and saw that it looked like the roof of some kind of building. There were taller buildings in the mist above his head, and there were also some low ones below.
Before he could understand where this place was, Chujiu suddenly took out a bottle of potion and sprinkled it all over Ji Xun's body like a disinfectant.
Before Ji Xun could figure out what was going on, he heard his teammate say: "This is [Deodorizing Potion]."
Chujiu knew that with this guy's IQ, he would never think of the reason, and he had no intention of explaining it.
When Ji Xun heard this, he immediately understood the intention.
As you can tell from the name, this is a means to prevent tracking.
My teammates are as cautious as ever.
At the same time, it also confirmed his previous suspicion that he had broken through the extra-dimensional space and was in trouble.
Although there is a small chance that Chu Jiu is here because of something he has on his body, facing this teammate who is also in trouble, he is definitely better than some young master from the Cao family.
...
"Hurry up!"
After finishing the potion on the ninth day of the lunar month, I suddenly drank lightly.
Time was running out, so she had no intention of explaining and grabbed Ji Xun's tactical vest.
Then he jumped up and down the foggy cliff in front of him.
Although she had seen that this guy was very smart, she still had to admit that his physical fitness was really terrible.
Let him jump by himself, or he will fall to death on the spot.
Although Ji Xun guessed that they were running away, their immediate jumping off the cliff made his eyelids twitch.
Before he could react, his body was carried by Chujiu and fell rapidly.
right!
It's like a free fall like a bungee jump.
The soul is still on the platform, but the body has fallen towards the abyss, chasing away.
Chujiu ejected the steel cable on the mechanical arm in mid-air, and the "hissing" sound of the steel wire being stretched was heard, and then it sounded like it was hung on some iron frame, and there was a clang.
Ji Xun immediately felt a downward buffering force in his body, and his soul finally caught up.
The pavement was wet in the cold wind.
There was a layer of mist on the gas mask, and he, a weak woman who looked half a head shorter than him, easily twisted herself with one hand, swinging like a swing between the hazy buildings.
Although this method is a bit scary, the displacement speed is very fast.
After about seven or eight ejections of the cable, they were already far away from the previous building.
"Keng."
Ji Xun stepped on the ground with both feet, and when he looked closely, he saw that the two of them were stepping on a huge metal pipe.
The fog was so thick that it was still impossible to see the bottom of the pipe. The sound of gurgling water could be heard, and it was estimated to be at least twenty or thirty meters high.
Chujiu didn't look back and continued to lead the way. As she walked, she reminded: "Be careful, there are some abnormal monsters in the ditch below. If you fall, it will be very troublesome. If you make any noise, others will notice it."
"Um."
The mist filled the air, and the water vapor stuck to the pipes, making them wet. If they were not careful, they would slip off. Ji Xun walked carefully.
At this time, he had the opportunity to say: "Thank you."
Obviously, this teammate had just done him a big favor and even saved his life, so it was reasonable to say thank you.
Chujiu's tone was very calm, and he still had the tone of not wanting to owe any favors: "I can't say thank you, it's just a matter of cooperation. Without you before, I wouldn't have been able to come out of that extra-dimensional space."
She knew very well that without this guy's incredible thinking to break the situation, she would not have been able to come out of the space smoothly and gain such a rich harvest.
Not only was the job transfer material beyond expectations, she even received an A rating when it came out for settlement.
It is very difficult to obtain a in a different-dimensional space of this difficulty.
This allowed her to draw another card that suited her.
Therefore, Chujiu felt that this favor was owed.
But it was precisely because of the high rating that she guessed it would cause big trouble.
She knew very well that even though she had received an A rating, her teammate's rating was definitely higher.
s evaluation?
The probability is very high.
But once someone in the extra-dimensional space makes an S rating, the entire space will inevitably collapse and disappear.
You will definitely get into big trouble by then.
He stayed on the ninth day of the lunar month.
Sure enough, not long after she waited nearby, the 407 extra-dimensional space suddenly collapsed.
The fourth young master of the Cao family probably thought they were dead, or were just card master apprentices, so he only sent some mercenaries from the Blackwater Regiment to guard them.
And after the space collapses, the exit location will also become random.
This also gave Chujiu the idea to help.
Fortunately, everything went well.
It was too easy for her to deceive some mercenaries, but she used some tricks to make the fog thicker. She had already found the mercenaries before they could see the situation clearly.
...
When Ji Xun heard this, he smiled and said indifferently: "Miss Chujiu, you are too polite. I wouldn't have come out alive without you."
After a pause, he added: "Besides, you have saved me again now."
Chujiu listened and said nothing.
Both of them are smart people. There is no need to mince words when talking, and there is no need to be polite to each other.
They walked a little further on the pipe, and Chujiu in front jumped down and landed on another horizontal pipe four meters below.
This is probably a height that an extraordinary person can jump to at any time?
But when Ji Xun, a weakling, looked at this height, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
Reason is not afraid, but physical conditions do not allow it.
He wondered whether he would injure his legs when he jumped, but it was more likely that he would fall off the pipe and fall into an unknown depth of fog.
Ji Xun was not embarrassed at all, and said with a smile: "Miss Chujiu, if I fall, can you pick me up?"
"..."
Chujiu glanced up as he listened.
This guy's domineering aura of controlling everything in the extra-dimensional space before and his current demeanor of being timid even when jumping on a pipe are really like two completely different people.
But it seemed that seeing him like this, Chujiu felt that some thoughts in his heart were balanced.
Ji Xun saw that she acquiesced and jumped directly.
There was a "thud" sound when it hit the ground, and the weakling's body swayed from side to side, and he was about to fall as expected.
The moment he lost his balance, a hand pulled him back.
Ji Xun stood firm and said again: "Thank you."
Chujiu did not respond, but continued: "The S-level evaluation will disappear if you clear the different-dimensional space. In other words, now everyone knows that the most important treasure inside falls into the hands of you and me. The fourth young master of the Cao family discovered that in the space
If your things are taken away, you will never give up. Moreover, the reputation of 407 Space is not small, and many people in Devil's Crossing Camp are watching. Before the news spreads, you'd better return to Innocence City as soon as possible.
Once you enter the city, even the Governor's Mansion will have a hard time finding you..."
Speaking of this, Chujiu suddenly stopped.
Not everyone has heard of the "Epic Source Card", and she wanted to remind her of the value of that thing.
To be continued...
