Chapter 717 Two Months of Leisure
Two months later...
The Holy Oak incident subsided, the official number of casualties was blocked, the county police and the FBI began to pass the buck, and the news report pointed out that the municipal government pushed the incident to the Psychic Administration, as if in the United States, all large-scale murders can be explained by "monsters running out."
But this matter is not under the jurisdiction of the Administration, and the upper echelons of the Opportunity City Administration are also in chaos, so the Administration has not yet made an explanation. When the fire department and the medical department were doing the aftermath, all the information found at the scene was classified as a state secret.
At the official press conference, the Opportunity City Market claimed that the casualties in this incident were not serious, because no one lived in the area affected by the monster, and only a few villas were lost.
When reporters asked about the crash of two helicopters that day, the mayor explained that it was a helicopter of the National Security Defense Force, and the crash was caused by the driver being frightened by the monster and operating improperly in a panic, but fortunately the crew members only suffered minor injuries.
In order to make this lie more credible, the official even pulled six lower-level soldiers of the National Defense Force a week later and held a commendation speech.
Chen Ke turned off the TV and lay on the big bed in the hotel, staring at the chandelier on the ceiling in a daze. After the beginning of autumn, the temperature was a bit dry and cold. The wind blew into the house from the terrace door. Lucina, Diana, Shreli and Parker were grilling outside with several bodyguards.
After Lucina became a witch, Chen Ke returned to the 1989 Great Void to brush for a while, on the one hand to accumulate more souls and increase his time limit, and on the other hand to let her get familiar with her power as soon as possible.
These three witches have different personalities. Chen Ke has been brushing souls with them in the Great Void for so long, but even now, they have not really formed a close team.
Lucina is his girlfriend, so she will stand on his side unconditionally in many things, but her disadvantage is that she is impulsive and irritable. After she inspires her strength, she will rush out first regardless of everything...
Shrilely has an arrogant personality. Because she has received aristocratic higher education, she always reveals a hint of disdain and contempt for the other two girls in her words and expressions. Because she also likes herself, her relationship with Lucina has always been cold, and both sides are restraining...
Diana is the most rational one among them. Her feelings for Chen Ke are limited to repaying her life-saving grace. Diana has her own choices and positions, but she is willing to temporarily put them aside and do things against her will.
Chen Ke has seen what the relationship chain between the three of them is like. Because there is no emotional conflict and they have been together for a longer time, the relationship between Lucina and Diana is very close, and the nickname of Little Tiger is proof of this.
But Shreli always shows an arrogant look, and occasionally makes a few sarcastic remarks in her words. Only when she talks to Li Moyang and Chen Ke will she become normal, which makes Shreli's relationship with the other two witches very cold. Perhaps this is the opposition between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat.
And Chen Ke also analyzed and compared the strengths and weaknesses of the hard power and soft power of the three witches in the process of soul brushing in recent times.
Hard power refers to the strength of the ability of different types of witches, and soft power refers to the strength of the three girls themselves. After comprehensive evaluation, Chen Ke can know who to let take over when and under what circumstances.
To be merciless, Lucina is the bottom of the witch team, and the ability of the furious witch is not outstanding.
Although the strength, speed, physical defense and rapid regeneration of the Wrath Witch are very strong, it can be seen from the battle with Oliveira that she is terribly afraid of injuries from other elements, and lacks the means of containment and long-range attack. Coupled with Lucina's impulsive personality, she can easily fall into a situation of being besieged, and then be destroyed to death by the enemy during the siege.
In short, the Wrath Witch is a low-profile version of Superman who can't fly, of course, the one in the comics, not the Superman in this world who takes medicine...
The strongest in theory should be Shreli. The ability of the illusion witch is really unsolvable. As long as you have a brain hole, you can change whatever you want. The attack distance and range are basically arbitrary. Not only in battle, but also in daily life, this ability is very useful.
But Shreli herself is a chain-breaking existence. Her mental strength is not strong, and sometimes she even runs away because of fear, which causes her to be unable to withstand the pressure in adversity, which greatly reduces the illusion magic.
So Shreli is not much stronger than Lucina. On the contrary, in adversity, Lucina's tenacious temperament and mental strength will make her more useful.
To be honest, Diana is the real captain and the strongest combat force in the witch team. She is an agent of the Administration. She can calmly analyze any psychic events and monsters and use her own experience. At the same time, she has excellent HEMA swordsmanship and unarmed combat, automatic rifle and pistol shooting ability. In every move, she is better than those two professionals.
Diana's fire magic is not weak in output, but this ability is too single and can easily be restrained by the opposite attribute, or when facing special monsters, the magic will unilaterally lose its effectiveness.
Lucina has low both her own ability and witch ability, Shreli is too poor but has a great witch ability, and Diana is super strong but has a medium and extremely easy to limit ability.
If there is a second chance, Chen Ke might reconsider the distribution of witch power, but reality is not a game. You can't reset your points, and you can't delete your account and reconnect. Life is always imperfect.
Parker shouted into the house, wanting Chen Ke to come out to the barbecue party. Chen Ke ran out and saw several bodyguards sitting on a few boxes of beer and chatting.
Li Moyang was not among them. After the attack on the Holy Oak, Li Moyang realized that they could not live in a fixed place, so he rented a lot of apartments in Opportunity City. With Chen Ke's Dream Center, they can teleport to any room at will.
Now, he is analyzing the composition data of H.C.P armor in his apartment. For two whole months, he was immersed in it and could not extricate himself, and rarely contacted Chen Ke.
In order to stop being tracked by the company, Li Moyang also prepared new mobile phones and numbers for everyone, and forged a new identity. Chen Ke finally used iPhone3G and no longer had to worry about the phone bill.
The barbecue party on the terrace was very lively. Diana was talking to Parker, and Lucina was arm wrestling with several bodyguards. It seemed that they would have a new nickname soon...
Li Moyang suddenly called Chen Ke at this time. He walked to a place with few people to answer the phone. The other party told him mysteriously that there was a piece of information about the company.
"I know you are looking for some kind of holy diamond, and one of them is in the hands of the organization behind Oliveira. You see, I have a reliable source of information, maybe I can help." Li Moyang said.
"Oh? That's great, tell me." Chen Ke said.
"Call them and meet at my place." Li Moyang was very cautious.
Chen Ke looked back and decided to go there later.
