Start with Mechanical Hunter

New Machinery City, Old Town, a former human settlement somewhere, Kowloon Walled City.

The location selection of any mechanical city requires a large amount of ‘manual data’.

The settlements before these ‘artificial data’ are the natural old cities.

The old city, the old city, the walled city, and the underground area each have their own names, but there is no difference in essence.

night

Baozi went online alone, picked up a surgery box that had been prepared in advance, and slipped from Xincheng District to Chengzhai District, then walked into an alleyway, turned left and right, and entered an underground store.

Everything is sold here, including weapons, living people, unnumbered networked devices, and prosthetics destroyed by viruses.

In short, it has everything.

This is often the place where it is easiest to get negative buffs. According to the conclusions drawn by players, if you go to the underground world once, you will get +3 debuffs at least.

So even players rarely come.

Of course, a big reason is that without the reputation of some special underground forces, really good things cannot be bought at all.

Here is a huge pig-killing tray.

"Building 11."

Baozi walked into the old building that was about to be demolished and stepped into the rickety elevator. Like a naughty child, he pressed a series of floor numbers.

‘4, 5, 7, 2, 1, 8, 9, that’s it. ’

The elevator swayed and began to sink.

Baozi put down his fingers and decisively turned on all the 'Human Brain Firewall' functions.

The elevator squeaked and stopped, but the door did not open.

Baozi grinded his teeth and put his hands on his waist. It was an electromagnetic pistol that he bought at a large price. It was not only easy to carry around, but it could also deal 9,000 damage.

It's just that the charging is slow. It takes 10 hours to charge three times at a time.

"Who's coming?" The electronic mechanical voice sounded.

"Friends of crows and owls."

"You can only choose one of the two."

"I choose the one with wings."

"Squeak", the elevator door opened, revealing a small room with no lights on.

"The person who just spoke was artificial intelligence?"

"No, it's a tamed electronic virus that will invade you if you say the wrong thing."

As the voice of "Bring a knife but not an umbrella on a rainy night" sounded, Baozi finally breathed a sigh of relief and complained:

"Brother Umbrella, can we stop doing this? I don't know, you thought I was here to catch ghosts at night."

"I'm sorry, my current situation is a bit special. I can only come here in the form of accepting tasks, and this is a killing point of the Assassination Alliance. I can't go anywhere else except here."

In the darkness, a figure sat at the table, his voice a little hoarse.

"Damn it, Brother Umbrella, you're not suffering from 'Gamer's Apathy', are you? The killer organization is pretending it for you? Delete it immediately!"

Baozi was shocked. If Brother Umbrella had been brainwashed, ordinary people would really not be able to handle it.

After all, this guy is in the first echelon and is almost level 40. If he gets mad, who can control him?

"Pretty much, maybe a little more complicated."

On a rainy night, carry a knife without an umbrella.

"What do you mean, Brother Umbrella, you look quite normal."

"Turn on the light and take a look, remember to turn it off again."

"ha?"

Using the light outside the window, Baozi found the light switch, and with a 'click' sound, the light from the light illuminated the entire small broken room.

"There's nothing wrong. Hey, where are you, Brother Umbrella?"

Baozi looked around and saw that the small room was empty, not a single living person.

"You're not playing hide-and-seek with me, brother. I know your assassin's hiding skills are great. Come on out. You're not a bat."

Baozi looked around, even under the bed, but couldn't find the other party.

He suddenly remembered that Brother Umbrella seemed to have said, ‘Close it again’.

Baozi was stunned and chose to turn off the light.

In the dark environment, the figure with a knife and no umbrella appeared again on a rainy night.

In the darkness, a figure sat.

"Fuck, ghost!!"

"You see now."

"Brother Umbrella, you are in this state," Baozi wiped his sweat, "How did you do it?"

Carrying a knife without an umbrella on a rainy night did not hide anything, and simply explained the current situation.

It’s still the same mission as before to collect the ‘Nine Mouths of Famous Assassination Blades’.

This is a task chain.

After the task chain was completed, he triggered the camp's hidden mission and received a high-level camp mission called 'Legacy of the Killer King'.

After completing this task, you will obtain a hidden profession 'King of Killers'.

After a lot of hard work, Brother Umbrella finally finished it.

Then go to the headquarters of the 'Assassination Alliance' and accept the fate modifications of the 'Destiny Textile Machine'.

According to the task prompt, the 'Fate Textile' will delete a name. From then on, you will pass away in the light and be born in the dark night.

"To put it simply, it's + negative buff during the day, and + positive buff at night."

Bun summary.

"Is such that."

But as more and more killer missions are completed, more and more blessings are given by the 'Fate Textile Machine'.

Gradually, the situation became worse.

In the beginning, I couldn’t communicate with people outside of tasks.

Later, I couldn't log in to my account during the day and could only log in at night.

Then, even at night, you can only complete the killer mission and cannot take on other missions.

In the end, apart from going out on killer missions, you can only move around at a few fixed killer spots.

So, it became the current situation.

"Wait a minute, Brother Umbrella, how long will this state last for you?" Baozi heard something was wrong and interrupted him.

"Almost three months."

"..."

You are so big-hearted, you are playing stand-alone! ?

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

"Because the experience has given me so much, I'm almost at level 4."

Carrying a knife but not an umbrella on a rainy night is very honest. He is greedy for experience.

"..."

Is this the way Gao Wan thinks? It’s really puzzling.

"What negative status is there on the system panel?"

"Two states, one is 'fate spinning' and the other is 'collapse aura infection'."

"What specific attributes?"

"can not tell."

Baozi scratched his head. Brother Umbrella's current state sounded rather mysterious. He felt that his 'two swords' would probably not be able to handle it.

"You can't turn on the lights, right? OK, I'll give you a full physical examination in the dark. Come on, take off your clothes first."

"..." On a rainy night, I carry an umbrella but not a knife.

"What are you afraid of? Didn't you bring an umbrella?"

While the two were muttering, they didn't notice at all that a figure was watching them silently outside the window.

the next day

"That's weird. The testing equipment didn't find any problems. Is it because my level is not high enough, or was it that I was dreaming last night?"

After giving Brother Umbrella a physical examination, Baozi took advantage of the lightening sky and rushed back to his prosthetic branch. He took out the second-hand testing equipment that he had purchased at a high price and conducted various studies.

Hair, blood, even a small piece of skin, and a deformable prosthetic ‘killer nail’.

Nothing was detected.

No matter whether it is electronic virus infection, prosthetic body rejection syndrome, or even fishy disease, it has not been detected.

"Interesting, really interesting."

Baozi said to himself.

What interested him so much was not just Brother Umbrella's current state.

According to what he learned, the next planet plot will be a great fusion of virtuality and reality.

Weird things will pop up.

Although Brother Umbrella's current situation is "neither human nor ghost", compared with those brainwashed players, it is still normal.

What he is more interested in is a breakthrough of 'common sense'.

That is, according to past common sense, no matter what kind of 'physical symptoms' they are, dying once will solve the problem.

This is how some lending organizations were bankrupted by players.

However, Brother Umbrella told him something that shocked him last night.

That is to say, he took the initiative to hang up once before in order to get out of this state.

However, it was of no use.

In other words, this state is a ‘permanent state’.

"This game is getting more and more confusing. I can't even finish the first level. It's so perverted!"

Baozi rubbed his head and prepared to contact some old acquaintances to see what they could do.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Boss, I am a guest of the seminar."

Baozi's eyes lit up and he said: "Please come quickly, please come quickly."

A middle-aged man in a suit and tie walked in and said with a smile: "Hello, I am the representative of the research association. I am here because you have made a great contribution to the research association. We study It will be decided to give you a higher level of purchasing authority, and at the same time there will be a new task for you."

‘Hidden mission! ’

Baozi's eyes lit up.

…

after an hour--

"President, it's all done." The middle-aged man said respectfully.

"Well, let's go down."

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Foreman Gao said without looking back.

"I didn't expect to encounter such a thing!"

In fact, he discovered the other party as early as when he entered the New Machinery City on a rainy night with a knife but no umbrella.

The sensing between the honkai bodies is very keen.

Although the other party cannot be said to be a Honkai Body, at most it can be regarded as a person infected with the "Honkai Breath".

This is also why Gao Gong can detect the other party, but the other party cannot detect him.

What's even more amazing is that the Honkai infected person is actually a player.

Moreover, through the dialogue of "I love eating steamed buns" and "Bringing a knife but not an umbrella on a rainy night", Gao Gong realized that the Honkai Impact infection, to a certain extent, can ignore the player's "natural disaster attribute" .

"I have never encountered this kind of situation in my previous life."

Of course, he never got a 'cosmic relic' in his previous life.

"So, the mastermind behind the Assassination Alliance is also a Honkai Impact?"

There are thirteen Honkai Kaishas, ​​and there are only three of them that the senior engineer has never dealt with.

Number one, number four, number six.

Among them, No. 1 has been confirmed to be related to the Mother City Deep Network.

“So, is the ‘loom of destiny’ No. 4 or No. 6?”

The induction between the collapsing bodies is mutual.

Gao Gong did not intend to break into the Assassination League's headquarters from the beginning.

Therefore, it is quite necessary to let players test the waters first.

"This game is getting more and more interesting."

Since the Honkai Aura can infect players, does that mean that as long as they reach the level of cosmic relics, they can completely eliminate players in some way?
