Chapter 135: Fake Is More Real than Real These Days
At first, I was still wondering why the Gunslinger, who came to Russia so long before me, ran behind me. He had just arrived outside the Snow Demon Castle after I walked around the Snow Demon Castle. Now that I am about to enter the Snow Demon Castle, I understand why he is so much slower than me. It turns out that he ran away to do some investigation. When I transformed into the Frozen Banshee, this guy immediately transformed into another woman. This woman is a senior player in the Snow Demon House, but her status is quite special. She is the operator responsible for managing the internal system of the Snow Demon Castle, which is equivalent to the security captain. This position in our guild is automatically managed by City Tree, while other guilds without City Tree have to find someone to take its place.
Because this woman is the security captain herself, she can walk around the Snow Demon Castle without being suspected, but at the same time, because she is in charge of the castle's defense system, she spends most of her time in the control room. , and ordinary people are not allowed to enter the control room, so the possibility of cheating is relatively small. The Gunslinger had put in a lot of effort to get into the Snow Demon's House, otherwise he would never have been able to investigate such a core matter.
Although we planned to impersonate, we did not directly transform outside the castle and sneak in, because the Frozen Banshee is now inside the castle. If we suddenly ran in from the outside, it would be easy to be exposed, so we still use my previous one first. Method broke into the vicinity of the castle from underwater, and then entered the castle from underground. But this time I also learned a lesson. Instead of digging into the basement, I dug straight up from the wall. Finally, I dug all the way to the upper floor of the warehouse before I penetrated the wall and entered the castle. Although digging this way is more troublesome, it is safer. At least you won't be stuck in the basement and can't get out.
Compared to the basement with only one exit, the working and living areas above are much more spacious. Not only are there large and small corridors extending in all directions, but there are also various rooms on both sides of the corridor. Although it is easier to meet people in this kind of place, it is also relatively easy to hide. What’s more, we have now transformed into the image of the frozen banshee and the guard captain. As long as we don’t bump into them or the people who have just seen them. Nothing will happen to people then.
"Hey, you have been investigating for so long, have you found the location of the core secret?" While there was no one around, I quickly repaired the wall with the water I prepared in advance, and by the way, asked the gun god if he knew about us. Where is the target.
The gunman helped me pour water on the wall and whispered: "You said it is a core secret. If I can find out, is it still a core secret?"
"Damn, that's going to be troublesome. I've been here before, and the roads here extend in all directions, and there are thousands of rooms of all kinds. We can't search them one by one, right?"
"Originally, I planned to sneak in and find someone to ask. After all, the two people we are imitating now are members of the Snow Demon House with a certain status, but I was worried that I asked the wrong person. After all, if my guild has such a I don’t let everyone know where the secret production workshop is when I grow things. If I ask someone who doesn’t know, it will arouse people’s suspicion.”
"That's right!"
I sighed as I continued to repair the wall. There is a slight difference in color between the wall that has just been frozen and the nearby walls. I suffered a loss on this before, so this time I will learn from my lesson and polish the ice layer a little, so that it is consistent with the one next to it. The walls look about the same. But while I was polishing the wall, I suddenly heard a shout from behind, which almost scared me out of my mind.
"President, so you are here!" A lively girl quickly ran up to me, grabbed my wrist and dragged me back, still saying: "The Sith are looking for you everywhere. , The raw materials sent by Zhukov and the others last time were not pure enough. They were full of slag and almost blocked the feed port of the machine. Come and have a look with me!"
Damn it, what do you mean someone gives you a pillow when you want to sleep? Just now I told the Gunslinger that I was looking for someone to ask, but if I didn’t have a guide, someone immediately came to show me the way. God was really helping us! But I reacted very quickly. I took the gunman's hand and said, "Natasha, come with me. I have something else to tell you later."
"Oh, okay." The gun master is also a good person, so Lima cooperated with me and started acting.
The girl holding me didn't seem to have any doubts about me bringing an extra person with me. It was probably because the gunman pretended to be Natasha. The two of us were dragged all the way to the floor above the lowest warehouse by the girl. Unlike the bottom floor, which is all warehouses, only half of this floor is a warehouse area, and the other half is some utility rooms. Although it can be regarded as a warehouse, the piles are not goods, but sundries. We followed the girl to the door of a utility room at the far end. Then the girl grabbed the door handle and pushed the door open a small crack, and then she closed the door again. Because neither Gunslinger nor I knew the way, we didn't say anything about the girl's strange behavior, we just watched attentively. After the girl closed the door, she pushed it open to a certain angle, then closed it again. Then she opened and closed it twice more, each time at a different angle. We didn't notice it when we opened it for the first time, but now we discovered that there was a copper track underneath the door, and there were scales on the track. Obviously, it was specially designed to facilitate the person opening the door to find the correct position. As for the number and angle of opening the door, it must be something like a password.
Sure enough, after closing the door six times in a row, the girl pushed the door open for the seventh time, but this time she opened the door to ninety degrees in one breath, and then she walked in first. When we saw her entering, Gunslinger and I immediately followed her in alertly. The girl closed the door and walked to a pile of tables, chairs and benches deep in the room, and then kicked one of the legs of one of the chairs. The chair leg was kicked down immediately, but as soon as the girl's foot was retracted, the chair leg automatically It bounced up and it was obviously a trap. After doing all this, the girl walked straight back to the door of the room, and then grabbed the door handle. The Gunslinger and I were both stunned. Is she going to leave now? However, we soon understood the mystery. When the girl grabbed the door handle and pulled it open, what appeared outside was not the corridor we came in before, but a silver translucent light curtain. It was obviously a portal or something like that. After the girl opened the door and saw that we were not moving, she immediately urged us. "President, what are you still doing standing there? Come in quickly?"
"Oh!" Gunslinger and I quickly recovered from the shock and quickly walked over and followed the girl through the silver light curtain.
The space behind the light curtain is not large, only the size of a standard basketball court. However, although the area here is small, there are a lot of things. Half of the small space is occupied by cylinders as tall as a person. On the other side of the space is a row of open wooden boxes, which contain something I am very familiar with— —Scrap the magic crystal.
As we all know, white magic crystal is basically a one-time consumable. Although the waste products can also be used as light bulbs or processed into other things, based on the characteristics of the magic crystal itself, basically as long as the internal energy is exhausted, it will It's equivalent to being scrapped. But at this time, I discovered that there were at least a dozen tons of scrapped white magic crystals piled in this room, and several huge machines in the center of the room were roaring, and a group of beautiful girls were busy removing boxes of scrapped white magic crystals. The crystal is poured into the feed port of the machine, and the other side of the machine is connected to a row of more than a dozen huge steel bottles.
After seeing everything in the room, Gunslinger and I looked at each other in surprise, because neither of us expected that the raw material of the magic crystal steam stabilizer would be scrapped white magic crystal. This is simply a subversive thought. We never thought that this thing might be a stabilizer material before.
"President, look!" The girl who pulled me over pulled me to one of the boxes. There are no white magic crystals in the box at this time, but there are still a lot of rocks and some unknown residues under the box, which seems to be quite heavy. Seeing me looking at the contents of the box in a daze, the girl immediately complained: "President, are you saying that Zhukov and his gang are impatient? They gave us such a defective product. Look at this." She handed over a large piece of scrapped white magic crystal. As soon as I took it, I immediately discovered the large impurities contained in it. After all, magic crystal is a natural mineral. Unlike ores such as steel that need to be forged again, after the magic crystal is mined, it almost does not need to be processed except for separating the outer rock shell. It is determined by not processing it. There must be some messy things inside the magic crystal, and of course the most common ones are ordinary rocks. Generally, if there are no requirements for purity, this kind of ore with impurities can be used directly. Anyway, what the magic crystal needs is the energy in it, not its appearance. The presence of impurities will not affect the energy release of the magic crystal itself. . Of course, if there are special needs, such as equipment like this machine, then cleaning operations must be performed. However, the simple operation itself is not easy. After all, the magic crystal itself is not stable. Even if it is scrapped, it may explode if it is broken. Therefore, the cost of treating this impurity is very high. Generally, guilds use it directly without removing impurities at all.
"There are indeed too many impurities in this ore!" Although I know that the impurities are the natural properties of the white magic crystal, but now I am pretending to be the Frozen Banshee, so I still have to follow the Frozen Banshee's stance. and tone of voice to speak.
When the girl heard what I said, she immediately waved her fist and said: "We gave them so much money, and they still use this kind of thing to fool us. President, do you think we need to end Zhukov's guild?" Lose?"
"Although this thing does have a lot of impurities, I won't start a war with them over it, but I can still teach them a lesson." I tried my best to imitate the tone of the Frozen Banshee.
At this time, another beautiful woman came over and said to me: "President, I heard that the Japanese have begun to use magic crystal steam weapons against the Chinese. As the war begins, there will definitely be a demand for magic crystal steam." It will increase significantly. I think we should prepare more stabilizers in advance, otherwise I am afraid that temporary production will not be able to keep up with the consumption rate. If we produce less, we will lose money!"
"That's right." The girl who pulled me over before also said: "And that Zhukov, the ore he gave us is too scummy. If it affects our business, we will have to pay them money or kill them."
As the girl was talking, the door outside suddenly opened. Before anyone walked in, I heard a girl's excited voice shouting: "Haha, Xiaoxia, give me the money quickly. I said I can find the president first, right?" Along with that lively voice, a very sunny-looking girl The athletic beauty jumped in directly from the door. When she first jumped in, she still had a smile on her face, but when she looked up and saw me, she was stunned. "Huh? President, why did you come in before me? Aren't you following me all the time?" The girl pointed at me and was so surprised that she didn't know what to say, but then when she heard the footsteps behind her, she responded As she passed by, something even more surprising happened. I saw another frozen banshee coming in from the outside. She was stunned when she saw me standing inside, and I felt nervous. Now it’s troublesome, the real and fake Frozen Banshee collide!
"Tell me, who are you?" The Frozen Banshee asked sharply after being stunned for a moment. She won't be confused if others can't figure it out. After all, I'm pretending to be her. Others can't tell which one is real and which one is fake. Of course she knows she is real, so she is also the one who reacts the fastest, but I'm not much slower than her in responding.
"Huh, let's talk about who you are first? What do you want to do by pretending to be me and sneaking into our guild?" I immediately said back with the tone of the Frozen Banshee, and all the players of the Snow Demon House were present. Then look left and right, wondering who to believe.
The Frozen Banshee was only slightly angry when I called her an impostor, but then she sneered again. "Hmph, although I don't know how you disguised yourself as me, you are definitely not me. As long as we confront you, you will definitely be exposed. I advise you to admit it on your own initiative."
After hearing what she said, the girls from the nearby Snow Demon House immediately took a step back and turned the area around me into a vacuum zone. Apparently they also thought what the Frozen Banshee said was reasonable, but the Frozen Banshee did not One person is ignored. The Gunslinger suddenly stood up and said: "Hmph, you are a very brave impostor. I came here with the president. We had discussed the repair of the castle in the control room before. Except for the real president, No one will know the secrets in the castle. What's more, even if the impostor knows this, why would he come to discuss repairing the castle with me? Isn't this unnecessary? So you are the fake. Sisters, don't be fooled, let's work together Come on, take off his disguise."
Originally, what the Frozen Banshee said before was quite convincing, but now that I have an additional witness, the Frozen Banshee's persuasiveness is obviously not as good as mine. People around us didn’t expect that both of us were fake. After all, in their opinion, there were only a few people who knew how to camouflage, and there were even fewer people who could disguise themselves so convincingly that they could even deceive detection spells. , so they didn't expect that two counterfeiters would appear at the same time. After all, according to probability, the probability of a single counterfeiter appearing at the same time is much lower than that of two counterfeiters appearing at the same time.
The Frozen Banshee immediately panicked when she realized that the people nearby looked at her differently. "Hey, I am the real one, don't let him fool you!"
"Humph, you faker, stop holding on. We are in the same guild after all, and we are much more familiar with each other than you are. It's useless for you to pretend like this. It's better to get rid of the disguise quickly and get caught."
"You...you...!" The Frozen Banshee was so angry that I didn't know what to say. She was obviously the real Frozen Banshee, but she was outshone by this fake one like me. People nearby obviously didn't believe her, which made her feel even more angry. "Natasha, don't believe her, I am the real Frozen Banshee." I don't know if she was dizzy with anger, but the Frozen Banshee turned to the Gunslinger to prove herself. In her mind, she was misunderstood because of the Gunslinger's testimony, so she wanted to correct Natasha, the Gunslinger's point of view first. Of course, the Gunslinger himself is a participant in our plan. No matter what the Frozen Banshee says, he will definitely not help her.
"Hmph, with your acting skills, you can deceive outsiders. The people in our guild and the president are all familiar with it. Even if you, an outsider, pretend to be the same, there are still some flaws. I'll give you five seconds. When I count, If you don't surrender by the time of one, don't blame us for being rude." After the gunman finished speaking, he started counting, without giving the Frozen Banshee a chance to explain, and he counted very fast, saying that Five seconds is enough to count in more than three seconds at most. After counting the last number, the gunman immediately shouted: "Everyone, come together and arrest this impostor."
When the surrounding members of the Snow Demon House heard this, they immediately rushed towards the Frozen Banshee. After all, it seemed that our reliability here was much higher than that over there, so they no longer hesitated and rushed forward together. The Frozen Banshee was suddenly attacked by people from her own guild, and she felt angry and anxious. Explain it? No one listened. She couldn't fight, because if she hurt someone, the other party would definitely be more sure that she was a fake, but if she didn't fight, she couldn't just stand there and let her own people chop her to death, right? The only way now is to run. After the Frozen Banshee figured it out, she immediately turned around and rushed out of the room, and the girls around her immediately chased her out.
Seeing a large group of mm chasing the frozen banshee out of this space, the Gunslinger and I almost broke our intestines laughing, but because we were afraid that someone would suddenly come back, we didn't laugh out loud, and we laughed again. It's not slow at all. The Gunslinger and I quickly canceled the disguise state, because in this state we cannot use the abilities that the other party does not have. Now we need to move things quickly, and we must use our respective abilities.
After exiting the camouflage mode, I quickly opened my Phoenix Dragon Space, and the Gunslinger also threw a crystal ball that turned into a huge black hole. Then the two of us each released our own magic pets and started grabbing those in the room. machine. Although there is a lot of equipment here, there are five sets in total, so it is enough. The Gunslinger and I only took two sets. No one could handle the remaining sets well, so we simply didn’t move. Anyway, one set was enough for disassembly and research, and it was useless to have so many. After installing the machine, we divided up the completed stabilizer cylinders, and finally we found some drawings in the room. After taking pictures of the drawings with a crystal recorder, I gave the original drawings to the Gunslinger. Anyway, as long as you don't copy the data incorrectly, there will be no difference between the copy and the original sample.
After installing these things, the room was completely empty. The Gunslinger and I quickly took out the coins and planned to continue pretending, but before we could pull off the outer shell of the coins, the door outside suddenly opened again. The frozen banshee rushed in from the outside with a distorted face, waving two frost swords in her hands and slashed at me without saying a word.
"Damn it, you crazy woman!" I blocked the Frost Sword of the Frozen Banshee with one sword, and only heard a crack. The eternal blade cut directly into the Frost Sword nearly half an inch deep, and then As the Frozen Banshee continues to press down, the power is gradually deepening. "Gun God, help me block it first."
As I shouted, the Gun God immediately intervened between me and the Frozen Banshee to help me block the Frozen Banshee's attack, while I took the opportunity to swallow the coin. After swallowing the pile of stuff while suppressing the extreme nausea, I immediately joined the battle group again. The combat effectiveness of Gunslinger and I also gradually decreased as the transformation began. After all, the power after transformation changes according to the target character and the lowest attributes of oneself, so the strength will definitely drop significantly, but Gunslinger and I both He is a character who has experienced hundreds of battles. Even if his attributes are not good, he will not be killed immediately if he hits two against one. Soon the transformation process ended, and the two of us transformed into the images of the Frozen Banshee and Natasha again.
"'Force' her out." I said to the Gunslinger as soon as the transformation ended.
The Gunslinger immediately understood what I meant and speeded up the attack pace with me. After a horizontal slash, the Frozen Banshee was pushed by me. Her body was already out of balance and she was immediately swept by the gun god. Her whole body immediately flew out and fell out of this space.
After forcing the Frozen Banshee out, the Gunslinger and I quickly jumped out. As soon as we came out, the Gunslinger immediately turned around and closed the door. Only then did we realize that there was a large group of people outside, but at this time The Frozen Banshee is trying to convince everyone that she is real.
"Don't believe her, she wants to destroy our equipment, don't let her succeed." I pointed at the Frozen Banshee and shouted.
The Frozen Banshee immediately retorted: "No, you have to believe me. They have already emptied the contents. Everyone, hurry up and stop them together!"
"Huh, don't talk sweet words there." The Gunslinger said to the girl who talked to us before: "Sith, arrange for two people to guard this door. No one is allowed to open it until this fake is caught. Prevent him from pretending to be someone else and sneaking in to cause havoc."
"Yes." The sister named Sith immediately assigned two people to guard the door, while the others surrounded the Frozen Banshee.
Seeing that no one believed her, the Frozen Banshee burst into tears of anxiety, but now she couldn't argue, so she could only worry.
"Everyone come together and arrest her quickly." Seeing that the situation was under our control, the Gunslinger immediately ordered everyone to come together again, making full use of the Frozen Banshee's reluctance to attack her own people to take advantage of her, but still, Before everyone could take action, a sudden situation broke our good situation.
