Oh no, I have become a character in the card pool?

Chapter 67: The Spirit Envoy cannot escape from the battlefield!

To be honest, when I heard from Night Crow that it was a "high-risk mission".

With the historical mentality that most of the dungeons in this world are designed to make things difficult for players, Lin Xuan has tried his best to raise his assumptions about the enemy's strength.

But you want to be taller, that's fine.
But damn, it can’t be that high! ?
It's like when you're playing a Souls-related game, the tutorial tells you that this button is for jumping, this button is for tapping, this button is for heavy attacking, and then pressing roll can dodge enemy attacks.

Then it was agreed that you have learned everything - next please defeat the Promised King Latan who is equipped with Mikaela.

Lin Xuan’s evaluation is.

Hit the hammer, this won't do anything.

Not to mention that when they faced the "Erosion and Collapse" before, they could only mobilize more than a hundred freshmen, and even with the Qi Ling, the total number of troops was less than three hundred.

Even if all the new students were replaced with experienced spirit masters, the number would increase five or six times.

And he was willing to hand over all command authority to Lin Xuan, so that there would be no parasites in the rear to interfere with the command.

He still couldn't imagine the possibility of winning.

Lin Xuan, who is close to completing "Qi Ling Poem", knows very well that this game cannot be solved by just competing in numbers.

Status, quality, authority and other seemingly mysterious things occupy a huge proportion in the combat content of this game.

Even a thousand low-level monsters would find it difficult to stop a spirit that has reached a higher level.

It was just like the final level of the previous “Floating City” dungeon.

The beautiful priest who had absorbed the demon souls of the entire area for nearly half a month and was recharged by Lin Xuan before his final appearance.

She has the level of "Rust-yellow Breath" if she is released.

I'm afraid it could destroy a small city.

But even so, she was hit head-on by a fox that also used the path of demonic power.

He still couldn't even resist and was easily killed by Lin Xuan with only low health left.

This is also the reason why Lin Xuan asked whether this arrest operation was a joint operation among multiple war zones.

If there is assistance from spirits from other war zones, even if the opponent is fighting in a different location, they will not be able to maintain their peak for too long.

However, the powers of different systems can at least cause some harm to each other.

It will go from being completely helpless to being able to struggle.

At least the final result won't be too ugly.

That’s right, even so, Lin Xuan had never considered the possibility of winning.

He may not understand the current level of alliance strength.
But he understands Ji Shouming
Even if it is a BOSS, it is a BOSS that he trained personally!

No matter how high his level is, how could he not understand?

"Other war zones?" Hearing this question, the young ronin shook his head in surprise.

"No, as far as I know, there should be no Qi Ling from other war zones involved in this roundup."

Hearing this, Lin Xuan went over all the serious scenes in his life in his mind before he could resist showing the look of someone who looked at him as if he were mentally retarded.

He was already thinking about how to find an excuse to escape with Xia Shimi overnight.

No, just running away is not enough.

For the senior executives who can make such a decision, this war zone may be rotten from top to bottom. It is better to choose another war zone to recapture and use as a novice village copy.

Anyway, the E-026 area is strictly speaking in the middle of the three.

As long as he fights back a little, the branch of the Demonic Ghost Realm will not be able to control him.

After regaining the lost territory, wouldn’t it be like the emperor in the harem selecting concubines at night? He can play any copy he wants?
In order to avoid having to play another resurrection match, Lin Xuan's thoughts began to spin at high speed.

Ever since a certain fraudster told him personally what happened back then.

He also explained that not all girls would be happy to meet him based on their high favorability and would naturally renew their contracts with him just because he shows up.

Lin Xuan had already ranked those girls in his mind from the lowest to the highest level of danger.

And in that.
Given the danger of "Himewari Ming'ei" after turning evil, even if it can't make it into the top three, there is no doubt that it can at least stay in the top ten.

Lin Xuan was sure.

If it was the swordsman girl from that year, with her stubborn character, she fell into the path of evil.

Even if I really show up, she will most likely not recognize me and choose to kill me with a sword.

This is what athletes are like.

It's not that they can't communicate, it's just that her brain may not be able to process it.

It is unrealistic to expect that the problem can be solved by bringing the fox with you.

Let’s not talk about the fact that Lin Xuan didn’t know what expression to use, and explained to Xing Jian Jingli: “Do you still remember the swordsman girl who would fight with you every time we met?”

"I hope to use your power to help me have a good talk with her and reconcile with her, and re-sign a contract with her to become my contracted spirit."

"Without your help, she wouldn't be able to join our big family!"

Lin Xuan didn't dare to guarantee that he would really dare to say so.

Will I see the cold fox-eared priestess's rare angry expression, and then beat this shameless human to death on the spot?

Even if we take a step back and consider it.

The fox really wanted to help - the problem was, it couldn't win.

Because he had been in a slump for more than a hundred years and his own magic power circuit was always disordered, Xingjian Jingli's mana became a big problem.

Even after signing a new contract with Lin Xuan, her strength has recovered to a great extent.

But those disordered demonic powers, like the tangled wires under a computer, still require him to spend a lot of time to comb out and mediate.

In this case, a back-row mage who is short of mana tries to fight head-on with an assassin who has been fighting for more than a hundred years and whose attributes are all focused on attack.

There is no problem with running away, but wanting to win is simply a bit sleepy.

In summary.

Lin Xuan now had no intention of continuing the conversation.

His mind was full of strategic retreats, planning to capture other Pokémons first and then come back to attack the gym.

Seeing Lin Xuan remained serious and silent.

Night Crow never doubted whether the young man in front of him wanted to have sex. He just thought that he felt that the difficulty of this battle was too high, so he was so distressed.

"No, Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, I'm sorry, there was something wrong with the order of my explanation."

He smiled awkwardly.

"In fact, this is the second time I have participated in this operation since I was summoned by the Spirit Contract Envoy."

"The last time was three years ago."

This time, Lin Xuan raised his head again, and this time he could hardly hide his shock.

All it said was "You fought her once, how did you survive?"

"Is the corpse talking?"

"No, I didn't even take the enemy's attack. She didn't even look at me before I was seriously injured and passed out."

The ronin's vision dimmed a little, and his hand holding the sword trembled slightly.

It seemed as if even now, three years later, he still couldn't forget that battle that happened so long ago but trapped him forever.

“The reason why I was able to survive in the end.”

Night Crow shook his head and whispered with a bit of confusion on his face, "It's because the fallen spirit has undergone an inexplicable change."

"Even though she has been assisting Huang Quan over the years, destroying the sealing facilities in various places and breaking down the obstacles to the invasion of the [Demon Netherworld]."

"But during this process, she never seemed to have killed any human or spirit with her own hands."

When the ronin said this confused sentence.

Lin Xuan had already roughly formulated an escape plan in his mind, and the only thing left was the last step.

His expression was stunned.

In my memory, the scene when I first saw the girl seemed to appear before my eyes again.

"I am not dead here?"

A girl wearing only the bare minimum cloth and carrying a broken sword on her waist appeared on the card drawing display page.

"Oh, I see. You resurrected me, and you wanted to use my power to sign a pact with me." "So, in this second life, you need me to be your sword, right?"

"Okay, then I promise you."

It is different from other spirit contracts where it is difficult to just think of making a contract.

This ragged swordsman girl was the second one Lin Xuan had seen since he started playing this mobile game. She did not need to unlock any options and could directly become a contract spirit in his team.

It's like a tool.

A tool doesn't require you to meet its requirements.

You just need to buy it and it will do its job.

Silent and hardworking.

"Spirit Envoy, I don't understand. Those people have lost their will to fight. Rather than fighting the Broken Spacetime, they would rather use the resources they have to escape."

"Their presence will only hinder our victory."

"If that's the case, why don't you order me to kill them?"

"As long as you say it, I will do it, because I am your knife."

"My hands are already stained with blood, so this is not a big deal. If the spirit contract makes it impossible for you to do it, you can let me do it."

"Too much? Unity? Killing all the logistics will affect the game mechanism and reduce the speed of resource replenishment? Why not keep them and use them as street lamps to boost morale?"

"I don't understand. I am just a knife. I don't need to think or hesitate. I don't need good or evil or morality. That will only affect the speed of my swing."

"As a knife, my existence only has meaning when I am chopping and killing."

The girl lowered her head after saying this.

Even after so much time, even at the risk of causing other people's favorability to go off the rails, he took the risk of doing it himself and forced her to take a bath, comb her hair, and change into decent clothes.

But until the end, the girl would still put on this tattered cloth, let her beautiful chestnut hair messy, and just tie it up casually with a straw rope.

For her, as a knife, it should not be treated with more care than a tool.

"Then, Spirit Envoy."

The girl looked up.

During such a long time, only the pair of gray pupils have changed. From being dull and lifeless after drawing the card, they finally have some luster now.

This swordswoman girl, who was drifting around like a grassroots, forced a shy smile towards the screen.

"Who should I kill next?"

On the girl's side profile, which looked a little delicate due to malnutrition and premature death.

The gray eyes revealed a hint of desire.

Just like a knife, only through constant fighting can it avoid being put aside because of gathering dust.

The memories of the game that he had just experienced emerged from Lin Xuan's mind again.

He was silent for a moment.

"call"

He let out a long sigh and tore up the well-planned strategic transfer plan in his mind.

In order to suppress the strong desire to pick it up, it must be torn into pieces so that it can be thrown behind you.

From the perspective of a hardcore strategy player.

It should be common sense to conquer the simple dungeons first, obtain enough equipment, and then challenge the high-difficulty and high-risk levels.

What's more, Lin Xuan is now traveling through time in his physical body.

This game will no longer have the save or rewind function. If you want to win, you can only complete the game with one life.

The choice he is about to make will be fraught with risk.

Even if someone had guaranteed that the girl had never killed any human or spirit over the years——

But what is equally certain is that Lin Xuan feels that he should not be included in the above "anyone".

He must be a special case.

No one can guarantee his life or death.

"Okay, I see. I've got a rough idea of ​​what's going on."

Lin Xuan looked directly at the excited Ronin swordsman in front of him and said in a calm and steady tone: "So, in order to be able to formulate a strategy in advance."

"I would like to know the information about the battle you participated in three years ago."

His smile was relaxed and confident.

“The more detailed, the better.”

=====
For a city like Linye City located on the periphery, it is neither close to the prosperous area in the center of the war zone, nor is it the front line to block the demon ghost domain.

Therefore, there are not many residents living here all year round, and there are also not many spirits staying here all the time.

This kind of isolated area may be a safe haven for other citizens.
But for Tomoka Fui, a professional "Qiling fan otaku", it was too boring.

"Damn it, I'm still a step too late."

I looked at the conveyor belt sushi door in front of me, which had been sealed off and marked as no entry for outsiders.

Fui Youxiang stamped her feet in anger.

She saw the news in the circle of social software that a swordsman named Qi Ling was suspected to be filming in the city, so she took the subway in the city to come here from far away.

Unexpectedly, I still couldn’t catch up.

You know, although Qi Ling has been idolized, it has been integrated into every aspect of people's lives.

But their main job is always to stay in the garrison base as soldiers to sweep out entities.

Instead of dressing up and acting as a pretty boy on the red carpet.

Therefore, it is not an easy thing for ordinary people to see a spirit that has broken through time and space with their own eyes in a stable city.

What's more, that's a swordsman spirit who can shoot short videos?

Maybe he will agree to take a photo together?
Fui Tomoka understood that the contracted spirits were different from the magical girls and the like who had lived in a nearly modern setting.

It is difficult to get a swordsman from an ancient background to accept the terms used in modern society.

For fans like her who don't have the qualifications to be a spirit master and can only chase stars.

Since there is no way to summon a contracted spirit, the only thing we can do is to classify the rarity levels based on the difficulty of taking a photo with the contracted spirit, and then post it on our Moments to show off.

"Alas, I have made this trip in vain. I have no choice but to go back now."

Just when Tomoka Fui was feeling discouraged.

She suddenly glanced at the street and saw a girl wearing modern clothes and big sunglasses walking quietly, looking around carefully.

"Ah, ah?" Fui Youxiang's eyes suddenly widened.

She swiped open her phone with uncertainty and looked at the photo of "Magical Girl Blind Box Series - Kusa Yuko".

Raise your head, lower your head, and raise your head again.
Immediately, his eyes turned into stars with excitement.

This is a [National Level] Contract Spirit! A living, breathing, walking magical girl!

After the excitement, Tomoka Fui also subconsciously felt a little strange.

Because high-level contract spirits of this level normally have special bases to stay in, or have to perform very important tasks.

Why would it appear in Linye City, an ordinary marginal city with no danger at all?

This thought just flashed through Tomoka Fui's mind.

She didn't have time to go up and chase the stars.

More vaguely memorable faces of the spirits came into view.
