Chapter 435 Intelligence Transaction
“Can’t get it?” Luo Jun frowned: “What does that mean?”
“It literally means...” Ling Yi shook his head: “ You should still remember the characteristics of the Jiejiang Dragon King Shenjiang Stone, right? ?" Luo Jun asked strangely: "When it is still a material, it is just heavier. If it is forged into a treasure, can't it be stored in the treasure box?"
"This..." Ling Yi sighed. Ling Kai on the side shook his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, you will know after you come with us and take a look."
With that said, the two stood up, led Luo Jun out of the office, came to the end of the corridor, and opened a secret door.
Behind the secret door is an elevator with a primitive structure. After the three people stood up, they closed the fence door manually and pulled the lever. The elevator slowly descended amidst the squeaking sound of mechanical operation.
“It’s inconvenient to have no electricity in this wilderness.” Ling Kai complained: “I think the ‘primitive’ feature is the most troublesome in the big world. Not only can’t we develop technology, but there are even some high-precision ones. All technological treasures will be affected..."
"This also saves a lot of trouble." Ling Yi said: "We can't develop technology, and neither can the polluters. But they have intelligence that is not inferior to that of humans. If they cooperate with the polluters and develop technology, they will also be a huge threat to us."
While speaking, the elevator has reached the bottom. Although the structure is primitive, But the speed is not slow. Judging from the descent time, it is at least ten meters underground.
After exiting the elevator, there is an empty prototype room, surrounded by concrete walls. Directly in front of it is a huge iron door. It can be seen that some bone materials were mixed in during the production to increase the strength of the iron door. .
It must have taken a lot of manpower to smelt such a huge amount of steel in an industrial desert like the Wilderness.
Two security personnel in black uniforms stood next to the iron gate. Seeing Ling Yi bowing and saluting, Ling Yi nodded, and the two took out the keys and opened the iron gate.
The moment the iron door opens, there is a huge space behind the door, with a churning lava pool in the center, providing a steady stream of heat energy. On the surrounding ground, there are various equipments, including smelting furnaces, forging tables, enchantment testing devices, etc., with dozens of weapon refiners busy among them.
"This is the Noble Phantasm Research and Development Center underground in Lingyun City..." Ling Yi introduced: "These weapon refiners are all elites raised by the family. In addition to the daily production of various Noble Phantasms, their main job is , or through experiments to determine the relationship between the characteristics of the Noble Phantasm, materials, and processes, in order to prepare for the development of more powerful Noble Phantasms.”
"What a magical place." Luo Jun admired: "You are guarding a lava pool, but you don't feel stuffy at all."
"These weapon refiners are the treasures of the guild, of course we must provide them with the best Ling Yi smiled and said: "There is a constant temperature and ventilation device to provide suitable temperature and humidity at any time. Although it is underground, it is more comfortable than working on the ground."
"My hammer. "Is it here?" Luo Jun asked: "I don't see the treasure that looks like the Divine Machine Furnace."
"The Divine Machine Furnace is not here, Mr. Ye, come with me."
< br>Ling Yi led the two people through the R&D center and opened another iron door. Behind it was a long and narrow corridor, at the end of which was a circular Tai Chi pattern machine door.
Ling Yi opened the treasure box, took out a key, inserted it into the keyhole and twisted it. There was a click, and the Yin and Yang fish separated on both sides, revealing a secret room.
In the middle of the secret room, there is a huge Noble Phantasm that is as tall as a person and more than two meters in diameter.
This Noble Phantasm has a simple shape. It looks like a huge teapot sitting on the ground, with the lid tightly fastened on it, and a ladder standing next to it.
Relying on the powerful vision brought by perception, Luo Jun can feel that the big teapot in front of him is of extremely high grade, legendary... no, it is probably of mythical quality!
Needless to say, this is naturally the legendary divine furnace.
"The Divine Machine Furnace saw it, where is my hammer?" Luo Jun asked.
Ling Yi smiled and shook his head, pointing to the ladder on the side: "You will know after you go up and take a look."
Luo Jun walked up the ladder with doubts. Ling Yi waved his hand and activated his control ability to remove the lid of the divine furnace.
Luo Jun lowered his head and looked inside, and immediately saw a hammer lying in the empty furnace.
The hammer looks similar in size to the previous sinking stone hammer, but the shape has changed slightly.
First of all, the color has changed from the previous snow-white to completely black. The surface seems to have a frosted texture, with a hint of metallic luster.
Then there is the shape. The shape of the original Shenjiang stone hammer is similar to a large claw hammer, with a curved pick tip at one end and a prototype hammer face at the other end. Although the current hammer still looks like a claw hammer at first glance, there are subtle differences. The tip of the pickaxe is thinner than before, and a sharp edge is forged on the edge, which looks a bit like a thick sword edge. The hammer surface at the other end is no longer smooth, but has sharp edges like a rasp, which looks very lethal.
Finally, a ring was made at the end of the hammer handle, and a thumb-thick chain was tied to it, but it looked only about a foot long, and I didn't know what it was for.
Wait... something is wrong...
Luo Jun looked carefully and found that the hammer was not "lying" at the bottom of the furnace, but "embedded" in the bottom of the furnace!
That's right, because of the terrifying weight, the hammer actually dented the thick bottom of the furnace, and only half of it leaked out!
"This is..." It was Luo Jun, and there was a look of shock in his eyes under the mask.
"You can see it." Ling Yi smiled and said: "The Divine Machine Furnace has refined countless treasures, and this has never happened before. And looking at the current appearance, I'm afraid you wouldn't guess that the Divine Machine There were originally three legs under the furnace, but after you forged the hammer, the three legs were inserted directly into the ground under the heavy pressure, making the bottom of the furnace sit on the ground..."
" Good guy..." Luo Jun couldn't help but take a breath, feeling that his hammer was embedded in the ground, and he couldn't even buckle it out...
"What about the treasure box?" Luo Jun? curiously.
"You don't know much about the mechanism of the Divine Machine Furnace." Ling Kai added: "The treasure phantoms refined by the Divine Machine Furnace need to leave the furnace mouth before they are fully formed. Before that, they cannot be stored in the treasure box, and even The specific functions are not visible. We have tried many methods, but we can't get the hammer out. It seems to be waiting for you to show up."
"But to be honest, based on my experience, Mr. Ye. It's probably not that easy to get it out." Ling Yi sighed: "I don't doubt Mr. Ye's strength. This magical furnace is the Ling family's most precious treasure. Not to mention its hard material, in order to prevent accidents, this furnace The underground secret room is also made of special materials and is extremely strong. This hammer can deform the Divine Machine Furnace and the floor of the secret room by gravity alone. Its weight is simply unbelievable!"
"Although I haven't tried it yet, but it is! I guess that even if Ling Yao is invited, he may not be able to conquer this magic weapon." "Heavy? Interesting!" Luo Jun had a smile on his face. He originally thought that this hammer would become a treasure. After that, the weight was increased several times, but I didn't expect that the final effect would be so exaggerated?
Luo Jun rubbed his hands excitedly, then jumped into the divine machine furnace, squatted down, and stretched out his hand towards the hammer embedded in the bottom of the furnace.
Ling Yi and Ling Kai were waiting anxiously outside. They couldn't see the scene inside from here, and both of them were worried about Luo Jun.
Suddenly, a metallic twisting sound came from the furnace, followed by a crunching sound, as if something was being pulled out...
Could this sound be real? ?
The two looked at each other, and then they saw a figure jumping out of the stove, falling to the ground very lightly, and standing in front of them.
It’s Luo Jun! I saw him smiling and holding the black hammer in his hand.
"Mr. Ye, have you succeeded?" The expressions on the two people's faces were incomprehensible surprise. Looking at Luo Jun's relaxed look: "Have you really surrendered this hammer?" Luo Jun nodded and smiled: "It's a little bit better than I thought. Make it simple."
As he spoke, Luo Jun also threw the hammer upwards.
It didn't matter what they threw. Ling Yi and Ling Kai were so scared that they were afraid that the thing would fall to the ground and destroy the secret room.
However, the hammer circled in mid-air, and finally returned to Luo Jun's hand steadily. His expression was very relaxed, and the ground under his feet did not crack or deform.
Seeing this scene, both of them realized that this hammer had similar properties to the Shen Jiang Stone. It could also change its quality by injecting vitality. However, the previous people's vitality was too low and the gravity offset was limited, so they couldn't take it out.
"Congratulations to Brother Ye for getting a handy weapon!" Ling Kai immediately raised his hand in congratulations. Ling Yi on the side also reacted and asked curiously: "I just don't know, what special effects does this hammer have?"< br>
Hearing his question, Luo Jun flipped his hand and put the hammer back into the treasure box: "This thing is already mine. I am very satisfied with it. It will also be my treasure at the bottom of the box in the future. As a trump card, naturally it is The less people know about it, the better.”
Hearing what he said, both of them felt a little regretful, but after all, Luo Jun’s strength was there, and they didn’t dare to say anything more.
"But..." Luo Jun changed the subject and said with a smile: "I prefer doing business. If you have information that I am interested in in exchange, I don't mind giving this hammer away. I’ll tell you the results.”
Their eyes lit up when they heard this. This hammer is probably the most special treasure that has been created since the advent of the Divine Machine Furnace. The head of the family and the elders must also be very interested in this thing. If asked about the effect, they can't answer. Coming up, it’s not easy to communicate...
"What does Mr. Ye want to know?"
"Well..." Luo Jun pretended to be thoughtful. To be honest, he didn't think so at first. Many times, the function of the Noble Phantasm can be known by sweeping away the vitality. In many cases, it is not a secret, and he did not intend to hide it at first. But after hearing Ling Yi's question, he suddenly thought that he might be able to gain some benefit from this.
"You think about it for yourselves..." Luo Jun waved his hand: "I also accepted the recruitment task. I must return to the main world before closing tomorrow. Before that, if you can't come up with something that will make me feel If you are interested in the information, then I will not accompany you."
After saying that, Luo Jun put his hands behind his back and walked out of the secret room.
.........
After leaving the Wilderness Hunters Guild, Luo Jun was not in a hurry to go home. He first went to get a lot of Wilderness Tickets, and then came to the commercial street and looked at the Wilderness Hunters setting up stalls all over the street. We started the long-awaited big purchase.
I disagree with the black market in Ningdong. Transactions here do not require barter. Wilderness coupons are hard currency. Luo Jun does not need to sell his precious phantoms. He just spends money like crazy and exchanges a lot of them. 's treasure.
It’s just the same as before, mainly ordinary and fine, and occasionally there is a rare one that is considered first-class.
After shopping until nightfall, Luo Jun finally completed his shopping, returned to his residence, took a brief rest, practiced for a while, and then went to bed to rest.
Early the next morning, Luo Jun was awakened by a knock on the door. When he went downstairs and opened the door, he saw that it was Ling Kai standing outside the door.
"What? Did you get the information I'm interested in?" Luo Jun asked with a smile.
“Thanks to Brother Ye’s reminder.” Ling Kai smiled and said, “In order to help you collect information, Ling Yi and I made a special trip back to the main world yesterday...”
“ My reminder?" Luo Jun was a little curious and thought, I just made it up on the spur of the moment. I don't even know what information I want, so how can I remind you?
Ling Kai chuckled and said, "Didn't you say that you also participated in the recruitment mission... So the information about this recruitment mission must be what you need, right?"
Hearing this, Luo Jun's eyes really lit up.
"Go into the room and tell us in detail!"
Ling Kai entered the room and closed the door behind his back. Luo Jun poured him a glass of water: "What information do you know so far?"
>
Ling Kai took the water glass and said with a smile: "The mission has not started yet, and the information available at present is very limited... The more reliable ones are the people who have decided to participate in the mission."
" "Oh?" Luo Jun asked curiously: "For example?"
"As far as I know, two people from the Ling family have signed up, and they are both members of the clan. You have met one of them, Ling Fei, who is now in charge of the guide."
Ling Fei... This person is not only We had an acquaintance in the wilderness and at the academy... The person who could represent the Ling family to find someone from the academy would naturally be a highly regarded expert.
"What about the other one?"
"The other one is called Ling Yu. He is a newly promoted member of the clan. He is the same generation as Ling Yao and Ling Xin. He is considered the second best among the juniors. For the geniuses of these two."
"So he is a junior..." Luo Jun nodded, not realizing that he might not be as old as Ling Yu...
"Apart from these?"
"These two are the ones I confirmed to have signed up." Ling Kai continued: "In addition to them, Zhuge Lan from the Zhuge Family in Southwest China and Shi Yong from the Shi Family in Shuncheng also passed on There is news about signing up for the mission, and there is also a creative professor from Tianjing University..."
"Okay..." Luo Jun interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "I'm not very interested in who will participate in the mission. In comparison, I want the opponent's information even more."
"The opponent's information...are you making things difficult for me..." Ling Kai frowned and said, "The opponents in the confrontation mission are either polluters or people from other worlds. No one can confirm the identity of the projection."
Seeing Luo Jun sigh with disappointment, Ling Kai changed the topic: "However, yesterday we speculated on some possibilities about the mission mechanism. ...As promised in advance, there is no guarantee, it can only be used as a reference..."
"Task mechanism?" Luo Jun raised his eyebrows: "How do you deduce this?"
Seeing that Luo Jun was very interested in this, Ling Kai smiled slightly and whispered: "Although Class A recruitment tasks are rare, , from the beginning of Chaos missions to now, there have been nearly a hundred times, and some rules can always be summarized... For example, the probability of the mission mechanism that has appeared in recent years will be very low. Ling and I last night. Yi summarized all the Class A recruitment tasks since records began, and finally confirmed the three most likely mechanisms."
As he said that, Ling Kai took out a piece of paper: "Write them down in detail. It's on here. This is finally useful information."
Luo Jun took the paper and saw Ling Kai's expression of hope, so he naturally knew what he meant, so he also reached out and took out the hammer. , but instead of handing it over directly, he held it in his hand and let Ling Kai scan it.
One of them looked at the note and the other looked at the hammer. Almost at the same time, they took a breath.
