Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Foundation, mana... Zhuang Xuteng certainly knows their importance, but their improvement can only rely on time and hard work, and there is no shortcut to follow. Especially in the Lich Master's theoretical system, although the use of drugs, implants and other methods can increase the total amount of shadow energy, these are only superficial improvements. Deep down in the body and mind, the hidden dangers caused by the cultivation of seedlings, even if they are not fatal, will permanently lower the natural upper limit of the person, and the gains will still outweigh the losses.

It believes that Zhuang Xuteng has a very promising development prospect and cannot rush for quick success. The more solid the foundation, the better, so that his mana can continue to grow in this life. Besides, Zhuang Xuteng has a lot to learn, so it is best to allocate time to various aspects so that he can be more comprehensive.

After returning from the 72 Stone Pillar Hall, Zhuang Xuteng slowly opened his eyes. Meat Bun was lying in front of him, his head resting on his feet, and his tail wrapped around his neck. Zhuang Xuteng snorted, moved his tail, and got up from the bed. Roubao also woke up, yawned with his mouth wide open, and then began to stretch.

"You have a nest, why do you always squeeze me to sleep?" Zhuang Xuteng thought that the snow leopard was lonely, so he was particularly clingy to him, but he reached out to touch the snow leopard's head, but it avoided him. Seeing Roubao squirming and walking, Zhuang Xuteng felt that he couldn't understand this kind of cat at all.

"What a cutie..." Zhuang Xuteng stood up and stretched, then opened the Wraith Jelly to keep his body under appropriate pressure at all times. This kind of pressure can not only sharpen his magic power, but also provide an environment for weight-bearing exercises for the body. Although the total power that Wraith Jelly can provide is not high, the all-round pressure is its advantage, and it feels much better than carrying sandbags and lead weights.

I came to the workbench as a routine, and there were four charging mobile phones on the table. The encrypted mobile phone used during the mercenary operation has no new messages, just put it down and continue charging; the text message specially sent to the family for routine inquiries must be answered to report that it is safe; the mobile phone just set up for the identity of "Doctor Mori" The new mobile phone only has Romeo's guidance for the time being and is also blank; however, the mobile phone he uses in his daily life as a mercenary has a missed call from Lucy and a text message from her.

The text message said: "No one answered my call. Let me inform you: the house is ready."

Zhuang Xuteng took action immediately, called Lucy back, then washed up, changed clothes, and went to take over the house. From the perspective of a mercenary, he inspected the simple decoration of the house to make sure that nothing should be installed inside, and then went to Lucy to complete the procedures. This house in the uptown area belonged to him.

It can't be regarded as his, it should be his and Morgana's. The most critical step now is to find Morgana and give her the key. Zhuang Xuteng went to PCPD to wait for her to get off work and tell her the good news in person. So Morgana turned down her colleagues' dinner party, jumped into Zhuang Xuteng's car, and followed him anxiously to see the new house.

She had been here once before and approved of the location and surrounding environment. Especially this location, which is only ten minutes away from the PCPD branch where she currently works, and it takes less than half an hour to walk there, it can be said to be quite perfect.

According to Morgana's request, only the most basic decoration was done at home. Except for the bathroom and kitchen, which were completed as a set, the other rooms only had whitewashed walls and no floors or furniture. Morgana had many plans in mind, and she just wished she had a blank piece of paper to draw on. Now that she has the key to the house, she finally realizes her childhood wish.

"I will only use my PCPD salary to decorate this place, so I will only buy cheap and practical furniture. In terms of comfort, it is definitely not as good as your apartment." Morgana said to Zhuang Xuteng: "Let's make an agreement first, you pay for it. You can’t pay a penny for the house, the furniture and supplies in the house.”

"Uh...can I buy a chair? You can give me one, right?"

"You can't contribute money, but you can give me ideas! Follow me to buy furniture. You can tell me what you like, but whether you can buy it or not is up to me. I don't have a big budget, so I have to be careful."

Zhuang Xuteng nodded, he could understand Morgana's persistence. Neither of them is short of money. To be more precise, at least they are not short of money to decorate their house and buy furniture. Life is nothing but good. Morgana could have done nothing and just focused on enjoying life, but she just wanted to work in the PCPD and earn a simple small house with her own hands.

This wish can be completely fulfilled.

Just as Morgana was describing her future vision to Zhuang Xuteng in her new house, her pager suddenly rang. "Emergency gathering, important mission." Morgana frowned and said, "Looking at the number, it should be a gun battle."

"I'll go with you!" Zhuang Xuteng looked at his phone number. No one was looking for him, so he was completely free. "Although I may not be able to help you, you know that I can take care of myself, at least I won't hold you back."

"Okay!" Morgana said without being pretentious: "I'll go back to the bureau first to see what's going on, and then apply for a temporary identity for you. The scene is often chaotic, and if you don't have an identity, you may be accidentally injured. "

"No problem." Zhuang Xuteng nodded. The two of them didn't waste any time and immediately left their new home and returned to Morgana's place of work.

Not only Morgana, but all the PCPD outside were called back, and vehicles drove into the parking lot in a steady stream. Zhuang Xuteng thought something might be serious this time, so he called Lucy.

"It costs money to get information from me. But considering your previous long-term cooperation proposal, the related information will be given to you for free." Lucy has always been able to balance professionalism and emotion very well. "If it is related to the PCPD area where Morgana is located, then it is probably related to the Cemetery Gang. At present, I only know that the Cemetery Gang has gathered a lot of people, and they seem to be competing for territory and interests. Not long after the incident happened, my The information is not comprehensive. Since you are going, I will update you with important information."

"Thank you, Sister Lucy." Zhuang Xuteng tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "I know it is the Cemetery Gang, but I don't know who they are dealing with? Why do I feel a little weird? Generally speaking, the one who is beaten will be more Chaos will also expose more information.”

"The general situation should indeed be as you said, but I can't cover the sky with one hand. It's impossible for me to know immediately as soon as information is exposed somewhere. I also want to be that powerful, but I'm not that rich..."

"That's right...hehe." Zhuang Xuteng smiled. "I saw Morgana coming out, still holding the clothes of the auxiliary police in her hand. It seems that I have an identity. Hang up the phone, see you later."

"Be safe, PCPD won't pay you."

Zhuang Xuteng didn't participate in this operation for the PCPD, he just did it for Morgana's face. Morgana was indeed very honorable. She went to the captain in charge of her group's operations to talk about the situation, and the captain immediately approved a set of uniforms and corresponding equipment. On the one hand, Morgana's background should not be a secret to her captain, who always takes good care of her; on the other hand, he may regard Zhuang Xuteng as a bodyguard, and come to protect her in broad daylight when in danger.

No matter what, if you wear the clothes given by the PCPD, at least you won't be killed directly by the PCPD. And because it was a PCPD mission, Zhuang Xuteng had to ride in Morgana's police car, and his armored ferret could only stay in the parking lot.

"All patrol officers and detectives have been dispatched, and only civilian personnel are left in the bureau." Morgana pointed to the back of the police car and said, "I still have to drive my colleagues, so I have to sit in the back!"

The back seat of a police car is a small reinforced cell, usually equipped with electric shock and shock devices to prevent thugs inside from trying to attack the police officers in the front seat. It's not that Zhuang Xuteng doesn't believe Morgana, he just doesn't like the atmosphere in the back seat. "No, I'm not going in. I'm going to stay in the trunk of the car."

"The trunk is full of equipment and there's no room for you." Morgana scratched her head, feeling very embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter, I just sit on the trunk. Don't worry, you can't throw me out under normal circumstances. Even if you throw me out, I can land safely and won't fall." Zhuang Xuteng patted Morgana's arm, Said: "Go and drive, it's absolutely no problem."

Morgana thought for a moment, and although it was a bit strange to let Zhuang Xuteng sit in the back of the car, she could not say anything that would force him to go to the small cell in the back of the police car, and she did not want Zhuang Xuteng to turn around and go back because of this disagreement. "Then you have to hurry up. Well...and be careful of stray bullets - I heard that we have been shooting at each other in the front."

"What happened?"

"The Cemetery Gang got into a fight with someone who didn't know who it was, and it got quite loud. We were afraid that the situation would get out of control, so we had to evacuate the crowd and set up a cordon." Morgana approached Zhuang Xuteng and lowered her voice and said, "What I mean is, No matter who the Cemetery Gang is fighting, the PCPD should take the opportunity to beat up the Cemetery Gang. Unfortunately, the order given to us is not only to help ordinary people, but also to watch, which is not interesting at all."

"PCPD doesn't know who the Cemetery Gang is fighting?" Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head, feeling that this thing was getting weirder and weirder.

He thinks this is weird, but others think he is weird. Dozens of cars set off together and headed towards their respective areas. Everyone was inside the car and he was the only one outside. How could he not be noticeable? Everyone will definitely take a second look, and then they will find an interesting thing: no matter how the vehicle accelerates, decelerates or turns, Zhuang Xuteng sits firmly and seems completely unaffected.

"Did he put glue on his butt?" Many people speculated. In fact, Zhuang Xuteng used the "touch force" technique in martial arts. He knew the movement state of the vehicle very well. As long as he changed his posture and center of gravity accordingly, he could make himself quite stable.

As expected, the PCPD implemented the strategy of sitting on the mountain and watching the fight. They were not in a hurry to advance to the core area where the conflict broke out, and stopped two blocks (intersection) away. A blockade has been set up here, but there is a shortage of manpower. Originally there was only one vehicle responsible for patrolling this area. Once Morgana and two other vehicles arrive for support, they can push the cordon forward, but no more than one block.

Red and blue police lights flashed on the street, and the light reflected on the glass windows of the buildings on both sides, vaguely reflecting the faces watching inside. Zhuang Xuteng looked up, and he found that these people were not panicked or nervous, but rather calm: facing danger calmly, waiting for protection calmly, embracing fate calmly, and accepting the consequences calmly.

Morgana used a loudspeaker to play the PCPD's warning message in a loop, hoping that residents near the cordon would temporarily leave their location and seek shelter farther away, but very few people came out to do so. People around here don't seem to care what is happening two blocks away, and don't care if it affects them. They have become numb and neither feel that they are important nor that this society is important. They are like zombies one after another.

In fact, one block ahead, the situation is still the same. Scattered ghost energy stray bullets have been flying past the window, and some have even hit innocent buildings. There are still not many people here who are willing to listen to the PCPD and leave the room. The only difference between them and the previous block is that there are fewer people leaning on the windows to watch the excitement. Instead, they choose to hide in the rooms inside instead of using windows and walls.

Just when the PCPD was setting up a new cordon, a skinny old man upstairs opened the window and shouted to them: "Get out of here, you gangsters, get out of here!" Zhuang Xuteng looked up and saw An old lady pulled the old man back into the house, stretched out her arm and quickly closed the window.

"If she goes up to them, she will say that the old man has a mental problem and is talking nonsense." Morgana came to Zhuang Xuteng, stood side by side with him, and said, "I have encountered this person several times before. Such a situation. I was scolded for no reason. I wanted to ask the specific reason and whether there was a misunderstanding. It turned out that it was all mental illness."

"PCPD has never been able to fundamentally solve the problem. Being scolded is a normal result. If..." Zhuang Xuteng narrowed his eyes, then pressed Morgana's head to lower her down, and said: "Be careful."

His voice was calm and there was no sense of urgency at all, but then a ghost energy bomb passed over their heads. Morgana was quite surprised. She didn't understand how Zhuang Xuteng discovered the ghost energy bomb so far in advance and even predicted its path. On the other hand, she felt that the ghost energy bomb was two or three meters away from her, so there was no need to hide?

"If you were still standing like that just now, you might attract the ghost energy bomb and make it turn towards you." Zhuang Xuteng explained: "If you don't squat down, there is a high probability that the thing will hit the car in the end. Due to the flight distance If it’s too far away, its power won’t be much, and the most it will do is make a hole in the body of the car, but it won’t hurt to take less of this hit.”

"How did you see it?"

"I have good eyesight." Zhuang Xuteng explained with a playful smile one second, and then frowned with an extremely serious expression the next. He stared closely at the situation outside an intersection and found three guys equipped with good implants trying to rush out of the building despite being shot by the shadow gun. These three people are very fast. They use bunkers to protect themselves and cover each other to attack forward. They seem to cooperate quite well.

However, their actions soon came to a standstill, because the Cemetery Gang also had experts who not only accurately predicted the movement direction of the three people, but also used multiple ejections to throw the explosives at those people at incredible angles. around. After the explosion, one dead and two wounded, they had to retreat into the building.

Zhuang Xuteng felt that the three men acted like mercenaries.
