Chapter 167 Forgotten Harvest (third update)
How many were found? Jamali frowned, "Only one in total."
Qu Jianlei was stunned, "Only one?"
The inspector looked at him strangely, then nodded, "It's indeed only one. I killed a lot of people to investigate it clearly."
After a pause, he said very frankly, "In fact, I am also very curious whether Terry can use the crystal to practice directly."
"So I keep a close eye on the crystals and definitely don't miss any."
That's good! Qu Jianlei nodded slightly. Bentley had more than 20 B-level crystals in his hand, and "only" nine A-level crystals.
So losing a B-level crystal is not a rare thing. Maybe Bentley planned to use it for practice.
However, the crystals used for practice were thrown away, which shows how urgent the situation was at the time.
Seeing him nod, Jamali finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at him again.
This glance made him stunned, "Are you...B-level?"
He had something on his mind, and after talking for a long time, he didn't notice that Qu Jianlei's breath had changed.
Qu Jianlei shook his head and answered frankly, "I don't know if it's B-level. My concept of cultivation...is different from that of ordinary people."
Jamali asked tentatively, "What's the difference, can you tell me?"
Qu Jianlei glanced at him indifferently and didn't say anything, but the meaning was already very clear.
I'm in such a bad mood now, you want to ask me about such a sensitive matter?
Jamali saw this and could only say angrily, "Okay, you adjust first...Contact us if you have any needs."
In the next three months, there was still no news from the Tianzi District.
It's okay that there was no news about Bentley and Hua Xiezi, these two were originally very good at hiding, but there was no news about the person who took action.
Qu Jianlei has been calculating the arithmetic slowly and doesn't seem to be in a hurry.
But Xiao Moshan couldn't hold back a little.
After he got the cultivation method from Jian Lei, the effect was very obvious.
Although he also paid five B-level crystals, he still felt that he had to do something.
He was a warrior with wind attributes, so it was not too easy for him to get information, and then he came back to find Qu Jianlei.
"Two forces are the most suspected, one is the Douglas family, and the other is the Andre family."
The Andre family is the boss of the Frost Wolf. Because of the death of the Frost Wolf, they had investigated everywhere in the central city.
Qu Jianlei was curious, "Douglas family... what does this mean?"
Xiao Moshan replied, "I also wonder what the relationship is with his family. I heard that an ultimate warrior went to the Tianzi District and there is no news so far."
This warrior went there under a pseudonym, but he used this pseudonym a bit too many times, so he was remembered.
Usually no one cares about this, but now any clues must be carefully investigated.
Then he investigated carefully and found that the Douglas family was very low-key recently.
Xiao Moshan has a straightforward personality, but getting information is his specialty, so he is naturally not lacking in carefulness.
The B-level warrior just died not long ago, so it is inevitable to be low-key, but this loose outside and tight inside... what's going on?
He watched for three consecutive nights and found a detail: it seemed that two ultimate warriors of the family were missing in the Douglas family.
The one who disappeared under a pseudonym was not a family warrior, but a member of their family.
The two missing were pure family members, and one of them was about to be promoted to an elder.
Someone in the family mentioned that these two people had not been seen for a long time, and someone was not allowed to talk about it, saying that the two were practicing behind closed doors.
The Douglas family, including its forces, had only a dozen ultimate warriors in total. Three of them were missing at once, which was definitely a big deal.
Then Xiao Moshan discovered that the Douglas family was secretly connecting with some close forces, and he didn't know what they were plotting.
But he couldn't figure out why this family had any reason to attack Terry.
Could it be that they were attracted by the electromagnetic attribute training method? That shouldn't be the case. Who would dare to step on that big pit?
After listening to what he said, Qu Jianlei frowned and thought for a while, but he couldn't get the point.
"By the way, do you have any B-level crystals? I want to buy a few."
Xiao Moshan looked at him in surprise, "You have a lot of B-level crystals, right?"
This guy originally has the wind attribute, and he is particularly concerned about Qu Jianlei's movements. There is almost nothing he doesn't know.
"I've used more recently," Qu Jianlei answered seriously.
When he came to the central city, he brought nine B-level crystals with him, and later he got more than ten.
But he used up most of them because he practiced calculating wind attributes before, and recently he calculated the magic, and he also needed to practice.
Now he only has four B-level crystals left. Although he still has two A-level crystals, he doesn't plan to use them for the time being.
As a person with a poor sense of security, he thinks four B-level crystals are a bit too few.
And calculating the magic really consumes crystals.
"Tsk," Xiao Moshan smacked his lips in distress, "Are ten enough?"
"Enough for now," Qu Jianlei nodded, "How much is one?"
The price of B-level crystals in the central city is about 6,000 to 8,000 silver dollars per crystal, and the specific price depends on the quality.
His funds are a bit tight, but since we are neighbors, it shouldn't be difficult to pay in installments, right?
"I'll charge you half price, 35,000," Xiao Moshan was very happy, "It'll be hard for you to take out more."
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes helplessly, "I've let you know all my belongings."
Xiao Moshan answered directly, "I'll leave it for your living expenses, but there's a reason for this half price."
"It should be," Qu Jianlei nodded, there shouldn't be love without reason in the world.
"Consider it as a goodwill gift," Xiao Moshan said without hesitation, "When I reach level B, help me improve my skills."
"No problem," Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation, "But I'll still take what I should take when the time comes."
Xiao Moshan laughed when he heard this, which was really rare for him who was serious, "It's a deal!"
It can be felt that he also likes Qu Jianlei's character.
The next night, Xiao Moshan brought ten level B crystals.
The total amount of silver notes in Qu Jianlei's hand was just over 30,000, but he still had three kilograms of gold.
The price of gold in the central city is very high, one kilogram of gold can be exchanged for three thousand silver dollars.
So Xiao Qin said at the beginning that the price of gold in the central city was not what he imagined.
Qu Jianlei felt a little bit of a toothache when he remembered that he had exchanged a lot of gold at the price of one thousand silver dollars per kilogram.
But... there was no way, right? At that time, he was just looking for that emergency, and there was no point in thinking about it now.
So he took out two kilograms of gold, and then pointed out the silver note of 29,000.
"Huh?" Xiao Moshan saw something in the safe with sharp eyes, raised his finger and pointed, "Can I take a look?"
Qu Jianlei took a look and found that it was what he had opened the treasure chest at that time, a black ring with mysterious patterns on it.
He had thought about the ring before, and it could be put together with one hundred kilograms of gold, so it was obviously not an ordinary thing.
According to the exchange price in the central city, one hundred kilograms of gold can be exchanged for 300,000 silver dollars, which can buy forty or fifty B-level crystals.
But he never figured it out, and later his curiosity gradually faded, so he did not continue to study.
Qu Jianlei did not express his opinion directly, but just asked curiously, "What do you suspect it is?"
Xiao Moshan thought about it, then shook his head.
"Forget it, maybe I guessed wrong, but let me try it out. If it's suitable, I'm willing to exchange these ten crystals."
Qu Jianlei did not refuse, but just said, "I'll think about it... If you can tell the truth, the possibility will increase greatly."
Xiao Moshan shook his head indifferently, "This truth... I can't tell you, it's not good for you if you know it."
After the transaction was completed, Qu Jianlei asked the other party, "Where did you get so many B-level crystals? Did you rob the warehouse in the canyon?"
Xiao Moshan looked at him in astonishment, "How did you know?"
Oh my god, Qu Jianlei was a little surprised. Is this guy so powerful? "I just said it casually."
"I'm taking revenge," Xiao Moshan replied angrily, "I'm really not the kind of person who gets greedy for money."
"I can feel it," Qu Jianlei nodded seriously, "I can feel it from the half-price."
"Haha," Xiao Moshan laughed dryly, not without self-mockery, "It's just a group warming up."
After he left, Qu Jianlei thought about the ring in the safe and suppressed the urge to think about it.
There was no way, there was a peeping Tom around, which made people feel helpless - what if the noise was loud?
Anyway, when obsessive-compulsive disorder came, he could control himself from thinking about it.
After another ten days, half of the ten crystals he had just bought were consumed.
Huge consumption brought output, and Qu Jianlei finally perfected the third magic.
He was a very forbearing person, but with three magics in hand, he couldn't resist the idea of trying it out.
The magic must not be tested in the courtyard, or even in the city, and must be tested in a place where no one is.
After lunch, he planned to drive away.
However, as soon as he got in the car, he got out again, went back to the house, opened the safe, and took out the black ring.
Seeing the B-level crystal next to him, he tilted his head to think about it, grabbed three and put them in his pocket.
Testing the magic must use the inner breath, in case of any danger, the crystal can also help to recover quickly.
Using crystals in this way is too luxurious, and it will also cause certain damage to the body, but... who made him feel insecure?
Just as he left, Xiao Moshan in the restaurant also put down the kitchen knife.
"I've almost cut the vegetables, and suddenly I remembered that I have something to do, so I'll take a half-day off."
He has always been conscientious as a kitchen helper, and he never takes leave. One person can do three things, and then he will become a member of the boss's team.
It's really not a big deal to take a leave suddenly. Some people even asked with a smile, "Have you found a girlfriend?"
Xiao Moshan didn't answer, but pushed out a motorcycle and started it, hanging Qu Jianlei's off-road vehicle from a distance.
He didn't want to do anything, but was just pure curiosity: Why did this guy suddenly go out?
What Xiao Moshan didn't notice was that two or three minutes later, at least three more motorcycles were hooked up behind him.
——————
Chapter 168 Mantis and Yellow Bird (Fourth Update)
Qu Jianlei drove the off-road vehicle and didn't really care if anyone was following him. This was a bit rare for him.
In fact, he would still look at the rearview mirror from time to time, but it was just a routine.
All his thoughts were on the three magics, and he was really eager to try them out.
Besides, everyone who should know knows that he is in the Inspection Office. Who dares to attack him in broad daylight in the city?
While driving, he took out the black ring to take a look - he couldn't help his curiosity after suppressing it for more than ten days.
More than 500 meters behind, Xiao Moshan's attention was all focused on him.
However, he was wearing a helmet and the other party's car windows were closed, so he couldn't accurately perceive the other party's behavior.
But he could still feel the general situation and knew that the guy was taking something out of his pocket to look.
Under the helmet, he couldn't help but smile, "I thought you were really not curious."
Five or six hundred meters behind him, three motorcycles covered each other, took turns to move forward, and stared at the off-road vehicle.
There were really too many motorcycles on the road. Xiao Moshan didn't notice the motorcycle behind him, and the three didn't notice him.
Qu Jianlei drove for more than an hour and finally drove to the suburbs. The population and vehicles on the road gradually became sparse.
Seeing this, Xiao Moshan slowly slowed down and stared at him from a distance of about one kilometer.
The three motorcycles behind did the same, slowing down to about two kilometers away from the off-road vehicle.
Qu Jianlei noticed the motorcycle behind him, but he didn't doubt it. There was only one road, so he could go, but others couldn't?
In fact, after leaving the city, there were not too few motorcycles on the road.
After driving for another hour, there were basically no people.
Qu Jianlei saw a gentle slope on the side of the road and a forest in the distance. He turned the direction and drove down the gentle slope and headed straight for the forest.
Xiao Moshan, who was one kilometer away, did not slow down and continued to move straight along the road. He must not follow him.
But the next moment, his attention was focused on what was behind him - he had to be careful in his actions and not let others see any abnormality.
However, as soon as he paid attention to what was behind him, he noticed something wrong: those three motorcycles... were a bit strange.
But he didn't react at all. Instead, he slightly increased the throttle and sped away without stopping when passing the gentle slope.
Qu Jianlei parked the car at the edge of the woods and took a special look behind him, but found nothing unusual.
Seeing him enter the woods, one of the three motorcycles slowed down slightly, and someone on the back seat called out with a walkie-talkie.
"The target got off the car and entered the woods! The target got off the car and entered the woods!"
"Please reply if you received it, please reply if you received it!"
"Received," a voice came from the walkie-talkie, "You leave in an orderly manner, repeat, you leave in an orderly manner."
Qu Jianlei entered the woods, took out the ring to sense it first, and then used his mind to feel it.
Then, he couldn't help but jump up, "Oh my god, this can't be true!"
He was surprised to find that there was space inside the ring... This is the legendary storage ring!
He really couldn't imagine it, "This thing actually, actually, actually..."
He was clearly traveling through the wasteland, and there were high-tech weapons such as pre-apocalyptic mechas and Gauss guns.
The Ultimate Warrior can also be said to involve genetic modification, but how did a storage ring appear?
"This wasteland is not what I imagined."
But his heart was big enough, and the next moment, he began to observe the inside.
Maybe it was a misunderstanding of some fairy tales, he felt that this storage ring...felt a little small.
It was about three meters by three meters, more than two meters high, and couldn't even fit a larger truck.
Half of the space inside was neatly stacked boxes, which were obviously energy blocks at a glance.
There was nothing else, Qu Jianlei couldn't help but frowned, "Why not put the gold in?"
Then he realized that if he really put the gold in, the treasure chest would have nothing but the house deed and the land deed, and this ring.
If that was done, the storage ring would be too eye-catching.
"I can put some things in later," Qu Jianlei happily put the ring on his hand.
The energy blocks inside were another windfall, but there was no doubt that a hundred times the energy blocks could not be exchanged for such a storage ring.
When he was excited, his body control ability was indeed a little poor, and he wanted to calm down and pinch the spell to perform the spell, and he forced himself to calm down for a long time.
When he started the test, Xiao Moshan had already come over.
He hid the motorcycle far away and came quietly with amazing body skills, faster than riding a motorcycle.
Xiao Moshan didn't dare to get too close, because in his perception, the opponent had already entered the B-level.
No matter how confident he was, he didn't think he could beat a B-level warrior, and he didn't want Jian Lei to misunderstand.
Since it was agreed that they would gather together for warmth, he would not easily change his intention.
Two hundred meters away is the limit, and it can't be closer.
Then he was stunned, "Electromagnetic magic... My God, this guy really has no attributes."
He has a lot of experience in sensing various attributes, and he didn't feel that Jian Lei had any attributes before.
But the next moment, Xiao Moshan frowned and looked in another direction in confusion: Is there a wind attribute warrior?
The three motorcycles that were followed just now were a bit strange. He had already sensed that there were five people in total, and they were all wearing helmets.
He could feel that at least three of them were ordinary people, and the other two... were suspected to be transformed warriors.
Some of these five people were carrying laser pistols, some were carrying daggers, and those who carried guns should have a gun license.
He thought that these five people were too big to cause much damage to Jian Lei, and they were probably spies from someone's faction.
As a result, it didn't take long for the ultimate warrior to arrive?
Xiao Moshan and the other party were both C-level wind attribute warriors, but he came from the canyon and his use method was stronger than the other party.
And he was quite sure that the other party could not sense him.
Should I warn Jian Lei? The one who came didn't seem to have good intentions.
Xiao Moshan thought about it and decided to wait and see for the time being. He really couldn't explain why he was here.
It shouldn't be difficult for Jian Lei to deal with a mere C-level wind attribute warrior, right?
The next moment, his brows frowned again, "Is this... earth-based magic? Jian Lei, this guy, figured out two magics?"
Qu Jianlei really didn't know that he was being stared at by two groups of people. He concentrated on sensing the magic he had calculated.
He calculated three magics, the first of which was Bentley's "Thunder Dragon" magic.
Bentley didn't even have a way to practice electromagnetic magic, let alone the electromagnetic magic. This magic was calculated by Qu Jianlei.
However, Qu Jianlei could only calculate roughly. If he wanted to adjust and improve himself, he needed Bentley to use his talent to perceive and cooperate.
And this Thunder Dragon was the move that Bentley almost used to seriously injure Jamali.
Qu Jianlei had a thorough understanding of the essence of Thunder Dragon, so he first calculated this magic.
Unlike Bentley, he didn't have the electromagnetic talent attribute. Old Ben could use it right away, but he had to calculate it again.
But even so, calculating the Thunder Dragon magic was much simpler than calculating other magic.
Just now, he controlled the output and tried it with a very small internal breath, and it felt... it was still a little bit off.
After all, his control of electromagnetics was a little worse than Bentley's, but there was nothing he could do about it, he didn't have this talent.
Now he is B-level, and his total output is definitely stronger than Old Ben, but in terms of details, he can't help but admit it.
Then he began to test the second magic - "Earth Wall Magic".
Why did he choose this as the second spell... Is there any need to ask? People with low sense of security, of course, prioritize defense.
Qu Jianlei had to work hard to deduce this spell, throwing in at least six or seven B-level crystals.
In fact, he could ask Ma Long indirectly about how to refine this spell, and the consumption would be much lower. .
However, if he really wanted to grasp the essence of it, it would not be discussed in a few words.
If he discussed it with Ma Long more, it would definitely arouse the other party's suspicion, right?
Not to mention that there was a peeping Tom next to his yard, staring at him every day.
Qu Jianlei had a good impression of Xiao Moshan, but who would want to let outsiders see their own trump cards?
Anyway, he had to work hard to deduce this spell, and now he is constantly adjusting and testing it.
He did not have the luxury of arching out the earth wall every time he tested it. After all, it was an experimental stage, and an earth ridge would be enough.
Although it was in the wilderness, it was better to make as little noise as possible, and the right way was to develop in a sleazy way.
He tested it attentively for a long time, and finally felt that if he continued to adjust it, it might be a bit of a loss.
It is right to strive for excellence, but he seems to be... not quite ready now, so it is enough to be roughly the same.
During his test, Xiao Moshan has been sensing the wind attribute cultivator on the opposite side.
The other party seemed to know that Jian Lei was not easy to mess with, hiding far away 400 meters away, trying to sense Jian Lei's actions.
How could Xiao Moshan allow this to happen? Want to find out the situation of Jian Lei, have you asked me?
He quietly used a "particle" technique, which is to roll up some particles invisibly to hinder the other party's perception.
The particle technique is only available in the canyon. As for the wind attribute cultivators in the central city... Sorry, you are not worthy!
Xiao Moshan used the particle technique, and he was not even worried that the other party would find out. The two sides were at a different level in terms of application.
He tried to sense the other side several times, and judging from the frequency, there should be no gain, which is a bit anxious.
However, the wind attribute warriors are all born scouts. After several unsuccessful attempts, they decisively gave up.
Of course, we can increase the intensity, but if we alarm the target, wouldn't that be a waste?
The next moment, Xiao Moshan discovered something unusual again. He could sense that the aura on the other side was also much more blurred.
After a little identification, he laughed silently, "Haha, floating dust technique?"
In Jian Lei's words, floating dust technique... is actually just a castrated version of particle technique.
