Chapter 175 Rematch
【Iron Scorpion is dead】
[Authentic good supermarket, authentic good clinic, newly opened store in the southeast corner of the square...win]
Clear words appeared above the ring. Li Ang looked at the Iron Scorpion under his feet, which was rapidly disappearing. He shook his head with some boredom, shook his palm, and degraded the wooden features on his palm, returning it to the shape of a human palm, and then walked towards the audience. .
Seeing Li Ang frowning and thinking, Wang Congshan thought something had happened to him, and asked nervously: "What's wrong? Are you injured?"
"fine."
Li Ang waved his hand, "I was just thinking about the physiological structure of the Iron Scorpion. That creature is very... interesting. Maybe some particularly novel inventions can be made through it."
"Eh?"
Wang Congshan looked at Li Ang with blank eyes. She had been accustomed to Li Ang's so-called "inventions" since she was a child.
The last time I heard this term, Li Ang claimed that he had made an extremely effective antihypertensive drug. After taking it, he could not only control blood pressure and treat hypertension, but also touch high-voltage electricity at will.
The effect is so good that it can almost be ranked in the top twenty of Li Ang's list of small inventions and small productions.
By the way, several of Li Ang’s other gadgets include but are not limited to new mobile phones with physical keyboards and replaceable batteries;
Electric generators powered by electricity;
Peeing beef pills that are authentic, honest, and advertised exactly the same as the real thing;
God-level freckle removal cream can turn zebras into white horses and Dalmatians into white dogs. Ordinary people applying a little bit every day can even wash away the corpse spots on their bodies;
"it is true."
Li Ang recalled it,
The arena in the Sky Arena has the function of actively cleaning corpses.
After the player dies, his or her corpse will instantly disappear to prevent players from applying corpse explosion techniques to themselves and perish together with their opponents after death.
However, when Li Ang penetrated the Iron Scorpion with his lignified arm, he had already used a detection tool made of plant fibers to scan the Iron Scorpion's internal structure.
"The body of that creature is a humanoid embryo that has initially taken shape hidden on the back of the iron scorpion.
The embryo has completed the differentiation of head, face, neck, trunk and limbs.
Although the facial features are not fully developed, the actual age of its brain is over forty years old, and it is not an artificial creature such as a synthetic beast. "
Li Ang thought about it and said slowly: "The iron scorpion's scorpion body is more like a giant incubator to store this humanoid embryo, providing it with nutrients and a living environment.
You can think of the humanoid embryo as a tank driver, using neural networks to control the tank--that is, the scorpion body--to fight.
The four half-mummy corpses on the back of the Iron Scorpion functioned as an accessory brain, helping the embryo to better control the Iron Scorpion's scorpion body.
In addition, the genetic sequences of the four mummies are also very similar to humanoid embryos - they should be direct relatives passed down by blood. "
"Eh?"
Wang Congshan frowned slightly, "What does this mean..."
“Perhaps, Iron Scorpion is one of the future evolutionary directions of mankind.
"
Li Ang said lightly: "Maybe in a certain world line, the living environment of human civilization has extremely deteriorated.
Humanity has to degrade itself and put itself into replaceable and highly adaptable reinforced vehicles.
And include his dead relatives into the plug-in body as an auxiliary brain. "
Wang Congshan imagined it for a moment and hesitated: "Real or fake? This... is so weird."
"Who knows,"
Li Ang shrugged and said nonchalantly, "There are all kinds of wonders in the world. Maybe in some plane, there are hot dogs that eat people, or bamboo sticks that eat hot dogs."
During this period of time, Li Ang has been trying to launch terminal vending machines into new worlds. The weirdness of some of the planets has greatly broken Li Ang's original understanding.
For example, on a planet whose gravity points toward the sky, all humanoid residents live in rock cities. Their most dangerous natural disaster is earthquakes - plate movements will tear apart the rock layers, causing an entire city to be dragged by gravity and thrown into the sky. .
The planet where cats and dogs war - the planet's old intelligent race was wiped out in a genetic weapon war that spread all over the world, and the remaining genetically modified cats and dogs became the successors to the torch of civilization. They took up arms, rebuilt factories, and based on the hatred engraved in their genes, divided the world into two halves, each occupying one side, and started a brutal war between the two races that spanned thousands of years.
(By the way, the first people to discover the terminal vending machine were the wandering cat and dog pacifists. They used the agent suits given by Li Ang to successfully sneak into the presidential offices of the two camps and brainwash the top leaders of the two camps. , successfully prevented a race war that spanned thousands of years, and focused the attention of all animals on exploring the broader universe.
Li Ang also received the highest medal of honor from the Cat and Dog Planet - the Good Humanity Award)
There is even a planet in the underworld - the residents there are all dead souls, and the living people are horror legends close to urban ghost stories. Even the ghost mother said to the ghost child, "If you don't sleep, the living people will take you away." ".
As stated in the item description, the destination of the terminal vending machine is truly random, and the span between planets is extremely large. It does not seem to be as "purposeful" as the scenario missions in the Killing Fields game.
Li Ang sat there and thought casually, waiting for Colt's revolver to be loaded. Not long after, new players appeared one after another on the 28th floor.
Dead Soul Song of the Demonic Scientists Alliance,
AIM of the FBI's Unusual Incidents Division,
Dawn, Agares, and Isomorphism of the European Heavy Industries Group.
The European Heavy Industries Group has the most extraordinary people. In addition to Mingxiao and others, there are also some unknown young faces, who are probably newly trained stars.
They saw Li Ang and waved at dawn as a greeting. The new stars they didn't know nodded respectfully at Li Ang from a distance, and some even bowed solemnly, like Ri Dao. A newcomer meets a senior for the first time in the workplace.
There were not many traces of battle on the people of European Heavy Industries. They had just started climbing the tower not long ago. Like Li Ang, most of the opponents they encountered chose to surrender, so they climbed so fast.
But there is one difference - there are too many participants in European Heavy Industries. They have integrated folk extraordinary people from Europe and the United States. After the previous merger and acquisition of Prometheus and Gen-Sys Biotechnology Company, the number of extraordinary people under their command has increased. further expansion,
Both in terms of numbers and quality, they are at the forefront of all extraordinary organizations in the world.
In this battle of command, there are more contestants from European Heavy Industries than ever before.
Because they are all from the same organization, when their members meet in the sky arena, they will either surrender to the strong based on the results of the company's internal training matches.
Or just pretend to fight and let the one with the advantage advance.
"What they're doing is actually useless, right?"
Wang Congshan curled her lips and said, "From the preliminaries to the semi-finals of this Battle of Command, the number of floors in the Sky Arena is not entirely determined. The overall performance of the players in the process of climbing the tower is also considered.
Even if all European heavy industries meet and surrender, it will not affect the final result.
On the contrary, they will be punished by the Sky Arena because they all meet and surrender, rise to higher levels, and compete maliciously - such as arranging extra powerful combat puppets for them, or extraordinary beings from another world. "
"Well...their method is useless even if it is useless, but it is somewhat useful if it is useful."
Li Ang thought for a while and said: "If they are ruthless, break the disguise, and actively abandon some players who have just reached Level 25, but have absolutely no hope of advancing to the finals,
Let them serve as the tool men responsible for surrender.
As long as he met his colleagues on the lower floors, he would surrender and send all the strong men and middle-level workers of European Heavy Industries upstairs.
At the same time, he deliberately stayed on the lower floor and fought seriously with players of the same level from other organizations to slow down their ascent.
And if the bottom level is occupied by low-level players, then there will be many powerful players in the middle level of Sky Arena - they will inevitably compete and consume them.
Skill scrolls will be consumed, equipment items will be on CD, and it will take time to recover spiritual energy.
As a result, the progress of most players has been slowed down, while the high-level transcendental masters of European Heavy Industries have been reduced in disguise. "
"oh oh."
Wang Congshan nodded thoughtfully, "But doing this will definitely cause a backlash from other organizations, right?
It is impossible for European Heavy Industries to take all the benefits, unless they want to see extraordinary people from other organizations working together to deliberately act cruelly in the battle with European Heavy Industries players. "
"So, I said 'if'."
Li Ang said casually: "Next, European Heavy Industries will probably meet with the heads of other organizations and guilds to negotiate, so that everyone can return to normal competition.
Now this little trick will only be used on the first day. "
————
As Li Ang expected, the competition in the Sky Arena gradually became fairer in the following period. Especially in the last few days of the preliminaries, the battle became even more intense.
Dozens of classic battles broke out, such as Celsus in the Bell Tower versus the Dark Mother of the Witch Alliance,
Both of them are undoubtedly high-level spellcasters. They have already surpassed the level of "fireball" confrontation. When fighting, they show the wisdom, cunning, and courage of the mages.
They use advanced invisibility and teleportation techniques to hide their locations.
Use mirroring and deception to deceive each other,
Multiple traps such as anti-biological force fields and anti-magic force fields were laid out in the narrow arena.
And use foresight to predict the future and release spells in a targeted manner,
It is also mixed with deception and counter-deception - the two will release a special spell called "trigger" on themselves. When the opponent makes a corresponding action towards themselves, the spell will automatically take effect and generate another spell effect.
The entire arena was like an extremely enthusiastic magic carnival show, with countless magics jumping, flashing and disappearing in it, making it dazzling.
Another example is Dawn of Europe Heavy Industries, versus Shinji Cho of the Special Affairs Bureau.
Before the game started, most people thought that Dawn would win the game without any suspense.
Because even though Cho Shinji's Kui Niu is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Special Intelligence Bureau's equipment research and development department, Dawn's Kabini is an epic creation built by European heavy industry at no expense.
Moreover, Dawn himself became a player earlier than Din Shinji, possessing stronger personal power.
But the game process was a big surprise.
Din Shinji's Kui Niu mecha has developed new functions. Not only can you continue to activate vector nozzles, launch rocket missiles, and wield high-frequency cutting knives as before,
It can also awaken the Kui Niu's will inside the mecha, allowing the Kui Niu's will to connect heart to heart with the pilot.
The Shanhai series mechas were originally developed by the equipment research and development department of the Special Affairs Bureau by intercepting fragments of the souls of the ancient monsters in the Prisoner's Cave.
After Kui Niu's will was awakened, the mecha itself mutated significantly, exuding a steady stream of rich and wild demonic energy. Its movement speed and combat instincts increased sharply, and even completely suppressed the firepower of the Kabini mecha in a short period of time. , drawing both sides into close combat.
It wasn't until Dawn activated one of her trump cards - the A.T. force field she got from the world of deep-sea monsters, that she managed to restrain the Kuiniu mecha. Only when Shinji Ding could no longer bear the burden of his spiritual link and withdrew from the battle did he win.
In general, the battles in the preliminaries were thrilling, but what makes the majority of fans regretful is that they still did not get to see the life-and-death fight between the real top players.
Whether it was Michael, Out of Control, Cold Water Stone, Hohenheim or Li Ang, they all maintained a certain tacit understanding and did not use all their strength during the tower climbing process.
In the last battle for the door, players from other worlds appeared, and in this battle for command, extraordinary beings from other worlds appeared even more frequently.
There is no need for them to fight life and death so early and suffer internal conflicts in vain.
At least this is not necessary in the preliminaries.
Thus, the preliminaries of the Battle of Command came to an end, and the winning players, a total of 2,000 players, entered the semi-finals.
————
"I didn't expect that the first floor of the Sky Arena would have unlimited capacity."
At this moment, it was already the second day of the rematch of the Battle of Siming. Holding a bucket of fried chicken and a bottle of Coke in his hands, he sat in the corner of the auditorium, looking around at the vast space around him, amazed.
Sitting next to her were Liu Wusha and Wang Congshan. Chai Chai was not a player, and Wang Congshan had just reached Level 20. Among the three, only Liu Wuxia signed up for the Battle of Command and advanced to the semi-finals.
"The scale of the first floor is now comparable to the five largest stadiums in the real world, right? Nearly half a million people sit on the first floor, and the vast majority of them are ordinary people."
Chai Chai said while chewing the fried chicken: "I don't know what they think, they waste so much effort just to watch the game."
Liu Wushuo glanced at her. The rematch stage of the Siming Battle also used the Sky Arena as a platform.
The difference is that 2,000 contestants have to play one game every day for ten days, and the finals qualifications are determined based on the average performance of the ten games.
Moreover, although the contestants are all preparing to join the battle on the first-floor platform, their real arena is the virtual space constructed by the Sky Arena, not the arena.
All spectators who come to the stadium, whether they are players or ordinary people, can use their thoughts to let the big screen play the game they want to watch, without everyone interfering with each other.
Those viewers who did not attend the event will have to rely on the Watchmen Guild's live broadcast.
"Ordinary people who come to the scene should be in pursuit of excitement."
Liu Wusao said calmly: "This kind of people are quite common. For example, before there was no killing of game, there were rich and powerful people who kept dangerous pets such as tigers and cheetahs, or went to Africa to hunt with shotguns - in the real world Conventional entertainment methods cannot stimulate them, so they deliberately seek danger,
But they are not really brave. Whether they are raising tigers or going hunting in Africa, they have to ensure the safety of their lives.
The same is true for these people now - they rarely inject themselves with genetic medicines to give themselves extraordinary powers, because that will increase their chances of becoming players. "
"oh?"
Chai Chai blinked when he heard this and looked around. Sure enough, he found that many ordinary people in the audience were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, looked rich or noble, and were surrounded by bodyguards and guards.
"You even brought the security team here?"
Chai Chai grinned and turned to ask Liu Wu Zao: "Hey, by the way, if those rich and powerful people dare not inject themselves with genetic medicine, how can they guarantee their wealth and status?
Isn’t it said on the forum that only extraordinary power is the real power? "
"Well...they have other ideas."
Liu Wushao said: "The saying that extraordinary power is the real power mainly became popular around the time of the battle for the door.
It was a chaotic time.
Now, these rich and powerful groups in the old world choose to attach themselves to guild organizations like European Heavy Industries.
On the one hand, they provide huge financial assistance and physical industrial assistance to European Heavy Industries to obtain seats on the second-level board of directors of European Heavy Industries to ensure their own safety.
On the one hand, they are very fertile. "
"Huh? Very talented?"
Chai Chai blinked and reacted immediately, "You mean, they are having babies like crazy?"
"almost."
Liu Wushao smiled and said: "Actually, the wealthy families in the old world were already very good at having children. They had a lot of legitimate children, and even more illegitimate children. In the past, those illegitimate children were troublesome, and each one was given a little money and sent away.
Now...the illegitimate child has become a family resource.
As far as I know, those families in the old world started their layout long before the battle for the door.
They secretly found the illegitimate children of the family, injected them with genetic medicine, provided them with player qualifications, and gave them the best training, so that these illegitimate children could return to the family. "
"Oh, what a grudge between wealthy families."
Chai Chai curled his lips and thought about it, and then he came up with the reasons why the old world families did this.
In the old world era,
A person or a family is amassing money crazily, accumulating wealth, and possessing a position of power.
The ultimate goal is always to let the family continue and maintain its glory.
That’s why there are family businesses passed down from generation to generation, elites in various fields being continuously cultivated within the family, and family charitable foundations with numerous names.
However, the killing game has greatly destroyed the "family-style" power inheritance method of the old era.
Extraordinary power is the real power, even higher than wealth based on social order, and even the social order itself.
Since the original social order has to give way in the face of extraordinary power, the money and power accumulated by those families are no longer safe.
The only way for the family to continue its rule is
It is to turn the family-style inheritance of power and wealth into the family-style inheritance of extraordinary power.
"The return of illegitimate children will also have an impact on the original legitimate children. I have read the information before, and many people died abroad because of this."
Wang Congshan took a chicken wing from Chai Chai's fried chicken bucket and gnawed it, and said casually: "But they don't seem to care very much. Anyway, as long as there are powerful enough extraordinary beings in each generation of the family, the family can be passed down forever. .
Moreover, European Heavy Industries can be regarded as insurance in a certain sense - the existence of European Heavy Industries allows those children of the top rich and powerful, even if they do not have extraordinary powers, to receive the best security treatment.
In a sense, they are the Celestial Dragons in the new era.
Oh, right,
Sometimes families in the old era would also adopt marriage alliances, such as letting family children marry extraordinary people with great potential.
Or cast the net widely and catch more fish,
We look for talented children who are young enough to be brainwashed from among the people, recruit them into the family, and treat them as adopted sons and daughters. We provide them with the best educational environment from an early age and want to cultivate them into powerful extraordinary beings.
A British or French aristocratic family adopted nearly two hundred gifted children at one time, and would adopt more in the future.
Let’s just say there is nothing new under the sun and the ancient tradition of raising a child is back. "
Wang Congshan said with some disdain: "Of course, only abroad. Those old-era families couldn't pick up gifted children from us - those who dared to reach out were hacked to death."
The three of them chatted one after another. In the past month, many major events have happened in the world.
For example, the war between the European heavy industry and the military-industrial complex has intensified, with both sides even using small tactical nuclear weapons to kill the other side's players and leadership.
At the same time, the wave of protests in the United States gradually subsided - the National Guard and regular troops of the United States used military-level weapons and equipment to suppress the protests.
However, internal strife seems to be breaking out in the top leadership of the United States - some policymakers want to abandon part of the low-end population of the United States, while a small number of policymakers with American conscience are firmly opposed, and it looks like there will be more trouble.
In addition, Russia's GRU department is fully developing the Alskalisan stargate world in Siberia.
The Special Bureau and the Global Occult Alliance also have certain rights to develop that stargate world. With the efforts of the two, the GRU department agreed to set up a "humanitarian relief area" in the stargate world.
That is to create an open space on the planet for refugees on Earth who do not have a stargate world to migrate to.
Buzz——
The vibration of the communication watch interrupted the three people's chat.
"His game is about to begin."
Chai Chai, who was eating fried chicken, was shocked. He wiped his hand on the napkin and quickly concentrated his will on the big screen.
The familiar figure in a white coat with a dragon head immediately appeared in the center of the screen.
