Chapter 8 New York Killing Contest (2)
The Humvee was running crazily on the roads of New York City, and the buildings on both sides were retreating.
Wen Rou stood in the car and kept searching the surroundings with binoculars.
The bloody city did not use a specific method to separate mutants from ordinary people. To distinguish mutants from ordinary people, adventurers must use their own eyes to observe and discover. Since the power of mutants comes from the genetic changes in their bodies, most mutants have some differences in appearance from ordinary humans, such as skin color, body shape, attire, or behavioral habits.
For the vast majority of mutants, these differences are slight, but in the eyes of adventurers, those who have subtle differences are worthy of their attention and temptation.
"A suspicious target was found 200 meters ahead on the right!" Gentle shouted.
This is already her fourth discovery, and the previous three times were all confirmed as false targets.
As soon as King Kong turned the steering wheel, the Humvee turned sharply to the right, roaring and rushing towards the point pointed by Wen Rou, coming menacingly.
A thin man with light green eyes was walking on the street in the distance. It was the green in his eyes that caused gentle suspicion.
The man suddenly raised his head and saw the Humvee speeding towards him in the distance, turned around and ran towards the buildings.
"The identity of the target is confirmed, he is about to escape!" Gentle shouted.
The struggle between mutants and humans has been going on for some time, so mutants are extremely defensive against humans. Once a human being rushes towards you at full speed, it is likely to be a targeted action taken by the other party who has discovered your identity. King Kong and the others use this method to force the mutants to automatically reveal themselves.
Hearing this news at this moment, everyone was refreshed.
"He can't run away." Hong Lang chuckled and took out a gun from the coat of arms.
The scope of the muzzle was aimed at the thin man, and Hong Lang lightly pulled the trigger after locking on to the target.
The gunshot rang out, and the bullets left the chamber. At the same time, the man jumped towards the distant building with all his strength. When the bullet flew past his feet and drew a beautiful arc in the air, the man had already landed on the wall of the building. His hands were firmly attached to the wall like suction cups, and he quickly climbed between the walls, his movements and gestures were as agile as a big gecko.
The climbing route of this gecko man is extremely strange. Hong Lang fired three shots in a row, but he failed to hit him. In the blink of an eye, he had already climbed to the top of the building. With his hands on the wall, he jumped into the air. Stretched limbs, made a stretched gliding posture, and easily landed on the roof of the building.
After landing on the roof, the man turned around and gave Hong Lang and the others a cold look, his eyes filled with coldness, before turning and leaving. In New York City, where steel and concrete buildings are everywhere, there is no shortage of buildings. The mutant was running crazily on the roof, jumping from one roof to another, moving quickly, as if walking on the ground, and was about to run away, Shen Yi suddenly pulled out his gun and shot it at the sky. one shot.
The bullets screamed and flew into the air, drawing a beautiful arc and flying away.
At this time, the mutant had just jumped to the roof of a building on the opposite side, and went around to the back of the building, and was completely out of Shen Yi's field of vision. Unexpectedly, a bullet flew head-on, hitting his face.
The mutant fell head-on.
With a light ding, the bloody coat of arms sent a reminder:
"Number E5371, kill a first-level mutant, and get a kill point."
"Beautiful!" Gentle exclaimed excitedly.
Successfully hunting down a mutant finally freed the team from the embarrassment of zero killing value.
In the following time, Shen Yi's team found two more adventurers, King Kong and Ruan Wen killed one each, and gained some kill value.
From time to time, the sound of the bloody coat of arms would be raised, reminding every adventurer that others were chasing after him not to be outdone.
Everyone took a look at the leaderboard on the coat of arms. In the two hours since the start of the mission, some adventurers have gained 7 killing points.
Killed three mutants, including a secondary mutant.
"It can't go on like this, the speed of gaining kill points is too slow." Hong Lang shook his head to express his dissatisfaction. According to the agreement, he was the first to take the shot, but as a result, a bit of killing value that he was supposed to get went to Shen Yi, and according to the agreement, he had to wait for Shen Yi and Fatty to make a shot before he could make a shot. This made him feel very useless, but there was nothing he could do. Who told him that his marksmanship was so bad that he missed his chance.
King Kong said while driving: "I have an idea."
He also felt that the speed of gaining kill points in this way was too slow.
"you say."
"Let's go to Wolverine and the others. These guys are mutants we know, we don't need to waste time on the unknown, let's kill the famous ones first."
Rourou immediately said: "I don't recommend doing this. I'm sure that none of these known plot characters is lower than level four. Judging from the strength of the level-one mutant just now and the supply of killing points, three Mutants above the level are not easy to mess with. According to the usual habits of Bloody City, the strength of characters like Professor Magneto X will be strengthened. Before we don't know the specific strength of the other party, this approach is absolutely very adventurous."
Hong Lang: "Why don't we go to the US military? They should have some information on mutants, and we can also cooperate with them."
"I think it's hard." Shen Yi shook his head: "Even if they have information on mutants, those who can be killed have already been killed, and those who cannot be killed have already run away. What kind of information do you think they can grasp and you don't know?" Hands-on? Or is it just sending us the information to prepare for a long line to catch big fish? They have time to wait, but we don't. We only have 72 hours. As for acting with them...do you think the government will be more efficient than us High? Don't forget that a team's operational efficiency is usually determined by its least efficient components. They just slow us down."
"There must be a way to solve the problem, right?" King Kong and Hong Lang were a little anxious.
"Don't worry." Shen Yi said, "It's impossible for the mutants to disperse and hide. Since they want to fight against the government, they must be organized and have a territory. We are just not familiar with New York now, but soon we will You'll find piles and piles of mutants, and everyone will be busy."
His tone was light, with calm confidence, which somewhat gave everyone some confidence.
"Okay...head." King Kong replied in a drawn out tone.
Along the way, they didn't run into other mutants. The mutants in New York City were like cats in the ground and mice who refused to show up.
But looking at other adventurers, the rate of increase in the kill value is also limited, and they are obviously also having a headache in finding mutants. Nearly half of the adventurers are still zero so far.
In contrast, the most eye-catching performance is the North District. Four adventurers have entered the top ten list. The person with the highest killing value has already obtained ten killing points, killing six mutants, and one of them is a second-level mutant. . However, the first place was not the one that killed the most mutants. The second place found seven mutants and killed them. I don't know if it was luck or some other reason.
Another two hours passed, and everyone's gains were extremely limited.
But Shen Yi didn't care about it at all.
As he said, this is just the beginning.
While looking at the scenery outside, Shen Yi said to the fat man sitting beside him: "Take advantage of the time, let's talk about how to get multiple abilities and how to increase the energy of abilities."
Fatty replied very reluctantly: "These situations are summed up by a senior adventurer who has experienced X-Men missions when I overheard a mission. However, I am not very clear about some things, so I don't know true and false."
"You say yours, and we will evaluate the authenticity."
"The general way to obtain abilities is usually to require the adventurer to kill the target with the ability to obtain it. The ability will not appear in the form of a scroll or a box, but directly forms an ability mark on the adventurer."
"Like this?" Shen Yi lit up his wrist, a small red mark appeared after he killed that gecko-like mutant.
"That's right, each imprint represents an ability and the initial energy intensity of this ability. After you complete the mission and return, as long as you get an excellent evaluation, adventurers have the opportunity to get one of these imprints as their own ability, but It can only be obtained randomly, and only adventurers with perfect performance can automatically choose abilities, but no matter whether they are randomly obtained or selected by themselves, they can only have abilities without direct attack capabilities. If you kill mutants with direct attack abilities, This kind of imprint will not appear. The bloody city does not allow us to master the abilities with direct attack capabilities, such as Wolverine's sharp claws, and Cyclops cannot have them. But like Magneto's metal control, Mystique's transformation There will be no problem."
Shen Yi immediately asked King Kong: "King Kong, is this how you obtained your abilities?"
"I didn't experience the X-Men world in that mission, and there were not many supernatural beings. I only killed one, and I didn't go through the selection process. I had it directly when I returned, so I don't know much about it." King Kong replied helplessly.
"Then how can I obtain multiple abilities?" Shen Yi asked.
The fat man hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know either."
"What did you say?" Hong Lang turned around and roared angrily.
The fat man yelled, "I really don't know!"
"Then you said earlier..."
"I said that I know there is a way to break through the limit, but I don't know any way." The fat man shouted: "The senior adventurer told me all this. He said that he had seen with his own eyes that there were adventurers who both had Two kinds of abilities, but he doesn't know how to get them. He only knows that the traditional method will not work!"
Hong Lang was very discouraged: "This fat man dares to play with us, I really want to kill him!"
King Kong shook his head and said: "You can't say that. You must know that the use of abilities depends on energy. Without energy, no amount of abilities is meaningful. For most people, like Professor X, Magneto, and Phoenix Girl The ability is the best. But they don't know, except for some particularly rubbish abilities, most of the abilities themselves have no difference in strength, because the more powerful the ability, the more energy it needs. X The professor's mind control, telepathy, and Phoenix Girl's mind control are all indiscriminate effects and superpowers, but the energy requirements are particularly high... Last time, I used mind control to save Wenrou The three-second bomb ended up consuming all my energy. This ability is different from skills. After the energy is depleted, it directly draws life force for maintenance, and the extraction speed is so terrifying that it almost killed me. So I don't think it doesn't matter if there is no way, the key is how to increase energy, this is the most important thing. If you don't even know this, fat man, then don't blame us for being rude."
The fat man immediately said: "I know, I really need to know this. If you kill a mutant, there is a very small chance of getting an energy bead. The energy bead has levels one to five, and only the corresponding mutant can appear. Each energy bead increases by 10 to 50 points of energy, the higher the level of the mutant, the greater the chance of dropping energy beads, so it is easier to get high-level energy beads. In addition, I heard that there are other ways to get energy beads, but I am not sure , I know that killing an adventurer with a supernatural power will give you a 100% chance of getting an energy bead. For example, King Kong, if you kill him, you will get an energy bead that increases the energy by 10 points. And it’s not counted in the range of inheritance.”
King Kong chuckled: "If you kill you, you can also get energy beads, right? Next time when you speak, pay attention to what matters, and use Lao Tzu as a metaphor."
The fat man nodded in fright.
Shen Yi thought for a while and asked: "Then Magneto can only control metal, so the energy he needs to consume when controlling metal will be much less? That's why he can lift the bridge." Shen Yi asked.
The fat man nodded again and again: "Yes, the higher the quality of the controlled things, the more refined the requirements, the more complex the changes, the wider the scope of application, and the more energy consumed. Different abilities have different changes, but no matter what None of these changes can depart from these basic standards.”
The corners of Shen Yi's mouth gradually pursed into a smile: "Understood, ability is not as strong as possible, but should be combined with your own energy... In this case, let's hunt hard, and see who will You can get a good ability."
