Chapter 388 Equipment Confirmation, Domain Card Confirmation
"When mentoring newcomers, don't focus on speeding all the time."

Langley spoke, calling out to Qiqi, who was eagerly stepping out the door.

"Take him to the equipment department first to get his supplies."

"Got it." Qiqi waved to Li Guanqi without turning her head, "Newcomer, let's go."

Li Guanqi turned around and followed her.

The two arrived at the underground parking lot and got into a sleek black hovercar.

There is no steering wheel inside the car, only a simple control panel.

Qiqi sat in the driver's seat, swiped her fingers a few times on the screen, set the destination, and manually adjusted the steering wheel.

"Sit tight."

"We're not in a rush."

Before Li Guanqi could finish speaking, the hovercar emitted a low hum and suddenly launched itself forward!

"I--"

The intense push-back sensation pressed him firmly into the seat, and the scenery outside the window transformed into a rapidly receding streak of light.

This speed definitely exceeds the speed limit inside the fortress.

With a blank expression, Qiqi maneuvered the vehicle, navigating the complex traffic network with precision, occasionally pulling off a close-quarters overtake that drew honking protests from drivers in the adjacent lanes.

Li Guanqi's hair was blown by the strong wind. He gripped the doorknob tightly and looked out the window.

The entire Bianyuelong is like a huge precision technology park, with rows of silver-white buildings rising from the ground, connected by enclosed sky corridors.

On the ground, people in various uniforms came and went, looking hurried.

The civic district and the satellite district are truly two different worlds.

"Those are……"

Li Guanqi pointed to a group of people outside the window who were all wearing the same white trench coats, but with slightly different epaulets and insignia.

"From the same group." Qi Qi said calmly, her eyes fixed straight ahead.

"Groups One and Two are brother groups, jointly managing Bianyuelong Fortress."

"They are in charge of the East and South districts, and we are in charge of the West and North districts."

Li Guanqi nodded, indicating that he understood.

Soon, the hovercar executed a beautiful drift and came to a steady stop in front of a huge metal door.

"arrive."

Qiqi got out of the car, walked to the sensor in front of the door, and swiped her ID card.

"drop."

The heavy metal door slid open to both sides, and a cool, refreshing smell wafted out.

Inside the door was a huge circular space, like a secret base from a science fiction movie.

In the center is a bottomless circular shaft, where countless robotic arms slide rapidly along guide rails, precisely grabbing and placing various equipment.

A blonde girl sat in front of a dozen screens, her hands moving rapidly as she intently adjusted something.

Hearing the noise, she slowly turned around.

“Victoria, technical position.” Qiqi introduced the blonde girl to Li Guanqi, paused, and added.

"He's mute."

Upon hearing this, Victoria narrowed her eyes.

She calmly pulled out an electronic writing tablet the size of a human face from behind her back, held it up in front of the two of them, and a few words quickly appeared on it, accompanied by a broadcast voice.

Not mute

"Uh, hello." Li Guanqi paused for a moment, then greeted him politely.

Victoria held up another writing board and asked, "What is it?" "Get the newbie equipment," Qiqi replied.

Victoria glanced at Li Guanqi, picked up a tablet from the table, and handed it to him. Three words popped up on the tablet: "[Choose for yourself]".

New players have three main equipment options: firearms, auxiliary robots, and domain cards.

The first two types can be changed or adjusted at any time according to one's own habits, but the domain card cannot. The production cost and process of the domain card are extremely complicated. Once it is decided, it is generally not modified without special reasons.

Li Guanqi flipped through the dazzling array of domain cards and was momentarily undecided.

Each domain card corresponds to a certain ability, but this ability can only be discovered by a 'pioneer' who tries it out. If a card has never been chosen as a domain card, then the domain ability is unknown. It is only known that the domain ability is related to the card's effect or card name.

For example, the skill "I'll risk your soul!" will cause mutual damage; the domain holder will take damage, and the other party will also be injured.

The [Hall of Light] can purify the dark aura of the ghost card, allowing the target to regain their sanity.

【Brilliant Super Dragon Trident Dragon King】can lock down the enemy's abilities, and when upgraded to epic level, it can also seal their actions.

[Access Code Speaker] can break through the opponent's network defenses. Epic upgrades can also grant duelists the ability to 'code speak,' turning everyday speech into code language.

There are also more sinister ones, such as the [Shangri-La Cocoon of the Kusha Wrathful Clan]. After defeating an opponent, it can seal the opponent's soul. If the spirituality reaches the epic level, it can even generate a strengthening effect. If the sealed one is the subject of a certain card's actions, it will interfere with the summoning of that card, and that card will no longer be able to be made. This is called [Imprisonment].

The Kusha Wrathful Clan once used the characteristics of this domain to wage war and hunt everywhere, causing a large number of cards to be unable to be made, making them a veritable walking disaster that struck fear into the hearts of all.

Therefore, the Soul Reapers gave Aleshart the clockwork designation [Butcher].

Li Guanqi kept swiping the tablet, wanting every effect, especially those marked "high spirituality," which were particularly attractive. As for the epic-level domains, the entire Spirit Binding Division only recorded fifteen of them.

These domain cards, whose upper limit effect is clearly defined, are particularly sought after.

Everyone fantasizes about having one themselves.

Some people like to chase the upper limit, while others prefer to chase the lower limit.

Li Guanqi is the latter. He doesn't think about how powerful the card will be after it becomes epic; he only cares about whether the effect can be used in the low-spirit stage.

He added several cards that looked promising to his collection, but hasn't made a final decision yet.

"I'll think about the Domain Card again," Li Guanqi said, looking up.

"Go get your guns and support robots first."

Victoria tapped on her tablet and agreed.

She operated the machinery, leading him and Qiqi deeper into the armory.

In the huge circular space, cold weapons, firearms, and various types of auxiliary robots are neatly arranged on alloy racks.

Li Guanqi's gaze swept over the rows of guns, and he picked up each uniquely designed gun to test its feel.

Ultimately, his gaze settled on a newly manufactured, specially made pistol.

The gun is entirely black, with smooth and hard lines. Its various data scrolls on the virtual screen next to it, showing excellent performance in terms of range and other aspects.

Victoria understood and manipulated the robotic arm to move several moving targets a short distance away.

[You can test the gun]

She didn't speak, but the tablet in Li Guanqi's hand automatically emitted a mechanical broadcast.

Li Guanqi handed the tablet to Victoria, picked up the gun, released the safety, and fired several shots at the target in the distance.

The gunshot was crisp, with minimal recoil, and the bullet hit the bullseye precisely.

Just as he was preparing to test the burst fire capability, an invisible wave suddenly shot out from the muzzle, like a pebble thrown into a lake, creating ripples in the air.

Yi Nabo?
Li Guanqi was stunned for a moment.

"The default mode is mixed mode." Qiqi said calmly as always, "A new feature developed by the tech department."

"Randomly firing argon or live ammunition has little practical significance in combat."

“However,” she added.

"Sometimes when you encounter a difficult decision, you can use this to make the decision."

"It functions like a coin."

Li Guanqi: "..."

He looked down at the gun in his hand, his expression becoming somewhat indescribable.

Using shooting as a coin toss—the designer of this feature is a genius.

"Okay, I'll take this one."

Li Guanqi fiddled with the gun in his hand.

Victoria tapped on the tablet to confirm.

The three then headed deeper into the armory.

A silver-white robot, resembling a penguin, glided in front of the three. On its round head, blue electronic eyes flashed and emitted a synthesized child's voice.

Hello, I am Guide Robot No. 07, showing you the available auxiliary robot models...

It went on and on about all kinds of robots, and Li Guanqi subconsciously took a step closer, wanting to see them more clearly.

Alpha is an offensive robot.

TP-04 has abundant medical data.

Li Guanqi was listening intently.

"Zi-"

A very faint electrical crackling sound. The adorable blue electronic eyes of the tour guide robot No. 07 suddenly flickered, revealing a faint red light.

Its round body jolted suddenly, and it slightly opened its mouth, revealing a pinhole invisible to the naked eye aimed at Li Guanqi's temple, accumulating some kind of impact energy.

The whole process was extremely fast!
Qiqi's pupils contracted, and she was about to make a move.

"boom!"

A dull bang.

Victoria, who was standing to the side, had already made her move. She was holding a wrench in one hand and moved so fast that she left only a blur. With a fierce sweep, she smashed the robot's head to pieces.

Parts and wires exploded, sparks flying everywhere.

The robot's headless body swayed twice before collapsing heavily to the ground, completely destroyed.

The entire armory fell silent instantly.

"This...?" Li Guanqi looked at the wreckage on the ground, feigning shock. "What happened? Did the robot malfunction?"

This sneak attack was indeed insidious.

For ordinary people, being ambushed in such a place by a seemingly harmless tour guide robot would be completely unexpected.

However, he was not afraid of anything except that the other side would not launch a sneak attack.

His opponent didn't move, so he couldn't use his spacetime abilities. In fact, he had already triggered the deceleration and seen the energy fluctuations. He was preparing to make a small move to dodge unintentionally, but he didn't expect Victoria to react faster and the cold glint of her wrench would arrive first.

Victoria kicked aside the robot wreckage at her feet expressionlessly, and the mechanical voice of the tablet in her hand began to broadcast.

This is not a malfunction, but a nanometer-level command intrusion targeting your cerebral cortex, preparing to steal neural data.

"Doctor?" Qiqi uttered two words softly.

Li Guanqi's heart skipped a beat, and he said seriously, "A doctor of the twelve-hour hand?"

"Is it really that insidious? They can perform brain surgery without even seeing the person?"

But he was calculating rapidly in his mind.

These clock hands have terrifying abilities; they're all like ghosts. Victoria's tablet broadcasted again.

The doctor's ability is code language, which can influence all units controlled by code.

However, the Soul Control Division's firewall is at the highest level, and he would rarely risk his life for an ordinary agent.

"What do you mean?" Li Guanqi looked up.

Victoria held up the electronic speaking board, which contained only five words.

You're being watched.

Before Li Guanqi could even complain or curse, she quickly raised up four signs in succession.

【rest assured】

【I】

【also】

Very strong

Victoria flashed a confident, devilish smile.

"Impressive, impressive." Li Guanqi clapped expressionlessly, then pointed to the displayed robots, "Assistive robots, I want these five."

"This, this, and this."

He couldn't remember any of the names or styles.

In layman's terms, one is agile and used for pursuit, one can deploy barriers for riot control, one has extensive medical knowledge and can provide first aid, and the remaining two are responsible for reconnaissance and remote support.

He really needs these assistive robots right now.

The Pope's Symbiotic Card has the same flaws as him, requiring the sacrifice of two "confidants".

The definition of a confidant is someone who has a close relationship with you and shares the same mindset.

Whether the robot counts as a confidant is debatable, but it's worth a try.

Victoria tapped a few times on her tablet, then waved her hand.

"Om-"

Five robots of different shapes slid out from the alloy rack deep inside and lined up neatly in front of him.

One is entirely black, with a lithe and agile appearance like a cheetah; it is an agile attacker.

It's a square-shaped object covered with various optical lenses; it's an exploration type.

It is a bulky creature capable of deploying an alloy shield; it is a riot control type.

One of the arms is covered with medical equipment; it's an emergency medical device.

The last one is equipped with a long cannon barrel and is a long-range support type.

Li Guanqi, with his hands behind his back, strolled slowly in front of the five robots like a general inspecting troops, his expression extremely serious.

He stopped in front of the most agile, attack-type robot and pointed at it with his finger.

"after--"

"You should call it 'Big Cart'."

Victoria watched this scene, curled her lips in disgust, wrinkled her small nose, and looked down on the person in front of her who was terrible at naming things.

Li Guanqi completely ignored her and walked towards the survey robot covered in cameras.

"Your name is Er Ma."

Next up are remote support robots, riot control robots, and medical robots.

"Your name is Sanpao."

"Your name is Sixiang."

"Your name is Wu Shi."

He clapped his hands, looking satisfied.

"You five, from now on you're all with me!"

The five robots simultaneously lit up their electronic eyes and emitted a synthesized electronic voice indicating confirmation: [Received].

Victoria was speechless with embarrassment, but she still followed the procedure and registered him on the tablet.

"Five robots, each with a different function."

Qiqi, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke, her voice filled with doubt.

Li Guanqi raised an eyebrow: "Is it strange?"

"Specializing in two or three functions will allow you to complete tasks better," Qiqi explained. "Your setup is too eclectic; it's more like... a team running a dungeon in an online game."

"Running a dungeon in an online game...?" Li Guanqi muttered these words, then paused, "Hiss—"

A flash of lightning struck his mind!
Yup!

A bold idea took shape in his mind.

He turned around abruptly, rushed to Victoria, placed his hands on her shoulders, and stared intently at her.

"Miss Wei! I've chosen the domain card! This one, please make sure you craft it well for me!"

"Trouble!"

Victoria was startled by his sudden action. She looked down at the card image that Li Guanqi was pointing at on the tablet with his finger.

The next second, her light green eyes widened suddenly.

Are you serious?!

The words on the electronic writing board flashed by rapidly, and even the mechanical voice conveyed a sense of urgency.

She was really worried.

[This domain card has never been used by any agent of the Spirit Control Division; all its functional data comes from the Common Council.]

Once the domain card is confirmed, it cannot be modified in principle.

Think about it more carefully, human!

“I’ve thought it through very clearly.” Li Guanqi’s tone remained unwavering, his gaze resolute.

"Miss Wei, I'll take this one."

Victoria looked at Qiqi for help, hoping she could persuade this idiot who was not thinking straight.

Qiqi simply shook her head gently, indicating that she couldn't control it and respected other people's fate.

Okay then.

The words on the tablet conveyed a strong sense of powerlessness. Victoria resignedly began to operate the device, binding all the equipment selected by Li Guanqi to his personal supercomputing ring.

A Type 47 pistol.

Five auxiliary robots with different functions.

And that domain card that the agents of the Soul Reaping Division had never chosen—

【The Spring of the Divine Stele】.
