Chapter 554 The Phantom of History
"Angry youth... well, that's what people from Central China should do."
Jiang Yu's eyes moved away from the west. He was now located on the land of America. If you want to see the East China Sea in the distance, naturally you have to look closer to the west. The entire planet and the large space structure around the planet have resonated with him, allowing him to know and simultaneously obtain the general conditions of every corner of the planet.
Yawei came up with many tricks.
All of Yawei's current hidden plots have basically been calculated and eliminated by the reincarnators in advance. And the war situation across the land is constantly changing in a direction that is beneficial to the reincarnations.
It's urgent.
It should be urgent, but now it's not.
And this obviously means one thing. That is, it must have secretly plotted Chen Cang at a certain node at this moment, or it is trying to appear that it has secretly plotted Chen Cang.
Specific layout planning doesn’t require much thought. Since Chu Xuan didn't say much in this regard, it means that others don't need to worry too much.
The captain should trust his own strategist, just like the captain should also trust that the 'personal likes and dislikes' of other teammates will not affect the overall team strategic layout.
——But what should I do?
Jiang Yu's eyes returned to the battle situation with America in front of her.
The Minoans had conquered several continents in America, and their army was still expanding outwards. The local people in America have already organized a strong enough army and are doing their best to resist the auxiliary armies of the Samsaras.
- But Minos will win.
Jiang Yu is convinced of this.
Lemuel couldn't resist the Golden Thunder Tree—until now, he still prefers this name to calling her Melina—and although the Minoans' technological route was rudimentary, their magic route had climbed extremely high. Not only do they have elite warriors who can directly serve as super mutants in the wasteland world, but the compound bow they use as their main weapon also has extremely powerful, precise long-range destruction and annihilation power with the blessing of the golden thunder tree.
One arrow is equivalent to an enhanced version of the Tomahawk missile, and a Minoan salvo can accurately cover hundreds of thousands of arrows within a range of 100 kilometers, with an error of no more than one point. meters above every corner. Most of the Americans' resistance was quickly wiped out in this way, and they didn't even have a chance to witness the Minoans' close combat power.
Incomplete technology cannot defeat fully developed magic.
Even with Lemuel's support, protection, and sanctification enhancement. America's army still had no choice but to continue to resist in defeat after defeat - they did think of some strategies, using large-scale barriers to cover the ground armor approaching the battlefield. However, as long as Jiang Yu is willing, the war technology of the Minos army can become stronger.
- I don’t even have to go off personally.
Jiang Yu stretched out his hand, and some stones and wood were disassembled and aggregated in front of him, showing the beauty of mechanics with a new organizational structure. He only needs to use his brain a little to develop the mortise and tenon craftsmanship to an extreme that no one in this world has even dreamed of. The resulting creation is even exactly the same as the Minoan classical painting style before BC.
Ballista, catapult. It is a simple power conversion device, but with the blessing of special craftsmanship and magic runes, it can amplify the power it can capture thousands of times - the ballista he set up can easily penetrate the sacred ball held up by Remiel. Form a barrier and carry out high-precision damage to key energy nodes everywhere. The catapult can bombard across a distance of hundreds of kilometers, and the moment it lands, it will cause the earth element in the area to boil, and the associated address changes.
The general performance is that a flying stone with a speed of twenty times the speed of sound hits the ground. When the shock wave unfolds, sharp stalagmites are generated at a high density within a hundred meters and then explode. Multiple catapult attacks will generate earthquakes ranging from level 5 to level 7, and without spell suppression, it is not impossible to increase the intensity to level 8.
This should be effective - the corresponding design drawings will be immediately transmitted to the location of the golden thunder tree. and left it to the current chief god of the Minoans to distribute at his discretion. Unsurprisingly, the emotional feedback Jiang Yu received contained a bit of anger.
Ah...that tree probably thought it was being underestimated. Or Jiang Yu is urging it. The next moment, the clouds on the sky increased several times and became thicker. And in an instant, lightning flashed.
——‘Click! ! ! ’
Large pieces of golden thunder fell from the sky. An American armored force that was advancing at high speed was blown away together with the holy protective barrier outside it. Lemuel seized this opportunity to strike back and projected a beam from a tricky blind corner. A blazing spear of powerful destructive power. And of course it didn't break the defense, it just exploded on a golden leaf that happened to be hanging down.
The impact and strong wind blew away the fog on the battlefield, and the little progress that the Americans had managed to gain was completely wiped out by the power of the gods. Several elite infiltration troops were exposed on the battlefield, and they were immediately bombarded by Minos' arrows, and all of them died in a matter of seconds.
The fancy tactical layout is obviously unable to resist the power of gods. No matter how many elite soldiers there are, they can only serve as cannon fodder. Only individuals with real power can determine the direction of victory.
Jiang Yu did a meaningless thing - he made catapults and ballistae that were completely useless to the current battle situation and would never be useful in the future, and the development of the battle situation was just as planned in advance. Adjust the direction slightly. Those American soldiers just died dozens of seconds earlier than their original fate. Lemuel was not injured as a result, and the slight loss of strength of the Golden Thunder Tree was completely restored to its normal best in an instant.
Pointless, worthless. What he just did was not as good as standing still for a few seconds.
but……
——Creation is what I like. Even if it is a creation that does not produce any value.
Jiang Yu likes to create.
Enjoy the establishment, adjustment, and maintenance of rules.
Before he went to this world, he had already understood this trait of his own. He even knows that if he wants to move forward, then adapting to this trait will undoubtedly be the best among the current strategies.
——This is my way.
—and I went along for the ride.
‘Tiangui’ has gained some growth as a result. As long as he is creating, combining, and improving. Then the light of his soul will gain a certain degree of corresponding growth. Regardless of quality or quantity, even if it is his subtle realm, it is the same.
However, this alone is still too little. If throughput is carried out at this rate, it may take millions of years of throughput to reach the next level.
An impulse surged in my heart. And this impulse amplified dramatically as time went by. Jiang Yu knew that he now needed to carry out some more novel and efficient creation, improvement, or maintenance. At the moment, I need an object as a goal.
Minos was good, but the interest in Minos was exhausted. And it already has an owner, so there is no need to cross the Golden Thunder Tree to interfere with it. As for Britannia, which is a little further away...
Jiang Yu subconsciously took a step forward.
The moment he raised his foot, he stopped in his tracks.
He suddenly realized that he had forgotten something, something that was not very important but should not be completely forgotten. I did some research on that matter in the distant past and initially falsified it. But even if it has been proven false, one should not completely ignore that ancient matter.
South America, ruins, golden mask.
The moment his thoughts changed, Jiang Yu had already arrived in the dense forests of South America. The ruins of the ancient kingdom known as the Golden Kingdom appeared at his feet at the moment he needed it. And several pyramids with obvious traces of super-ancient civilization clearly appeared in his field of vision.
The last time we came, the Central Continent Team was only able to conduct some basic scans of South America - the ancient ruins used to house the Golden Mask in the original Infinity were confirmed to not exist. But on this land, there are still some remnant powers of the ancient gods.
Gold mask.
A plot prop with unknown meaning in the original canon.
Its nature looks a bit like the mask of a disguised geek, but mixed with some information about the stone ghost face. The main god's evaluation of it is that after wearing it, you can briefly experience the feeling of the fifth-level gene lock. But it didn't say what price it would cost to wear it.
The original Zheng Zha did not wear it until the end of the battle. This may be the result of wild intuition.
But Jiang Yu knew more information.
——Gene Lock... There is no fifth level at all.
Jiang Yu lowered his eyes. He stared at the ruins in front of him, and at the same time monitored many battlefields around the world - almost all battles were in a stalemate stage under Chu Xuan's deliberate arrangements. And Germany, which is most likely to become a breakthrough point in the chain, will also take some time.
He knew that there was no fifth level of gene lock at all.
The fourth level is the limit, and then goes up. Holy status is another system, completely incompatible with genetic lock. Those who have unlocked the gene lock after reaching the fourth level of Sainthood can even advance all the way to the ultimate level at this position. The so-called holy position is basically a buff, a personality, or even... a trap.
It may be called the fifth level of career.
There is no fifth level of gene lock at all.
Well, the Golden Mask does not exist here. It is not a very unexpected situation. After all, if it really existed, then Jiang Yu would definitely not dare to wear it.
It's better to have nothing - nothing is the best.
Jiang Yu's eyes swept across the ruins - those ancient runes were completely analyzed and understood by him in an instant. And the information revealed in it is naturally completely different from the unreliable and outdated records in the original canon.
There is no battle between saints and immortals written here. There is no description of the origin of God No. 1 or the secret of witchcraft - what is here is just the rise and fall of a super-ancient civilization. And the name of this super ancient theocratic civilization is...
【Isu】
Jiang Yu suddenly remembered that even now the whole world was in chaos. But the Assyrian-based Isu civilization, which was taken over and transformed by Chu Xuan, did not even see a shadow of it. He should have spent a lot of time there, because he also had karma that needed to be cut off, just like everyone else in the team!
But Isu was missing.
Isu and Assyria are gone.
I wouldn't even realize this, if I hadn't come to South America on a whim at this time to explore these ancient historical remnants. Then maybe he would forget about this matter that should have been a big deal until he won the war, or when he retired sadly after defeat!
And this undoubtedly means that Chu Xuan spent a lot of resources on the layout of this place——
He immediately wanted to leave - this was a subconscious move, and contained a certain arrogance that even he himself was not aware of.
And the next moment, the content of this arrogance was made known to him through a mouth that was with him.
"Lord of Thunder, King of Creation, how arrogant you are. How dare you think that the crystallization of human wisdom will be invalidated by your insight. Do you think that what you are doing at this moment is not under the plan of mortals?"—— Kasumi spoke it.
Xia's form appeared next to Jiang Yu. She stretched out her hand and pointed to the engraving on a stone slab in the ruins.
"It was written by a person named [Che Gan]... Ayu, this passage has a strong presence in my observation..." She frowned slightly as she explained. "Hmm... that feeling, suddenly can't be found again?"
Jiang Yu stopped.
There is no doubt that this is a trigger. It was Xayah's perception that was triggered, not her own thoughts.
Then it is obvious that he will arrive here at this moment. Was it under Chu Xuan’s plan from the beginning?
Coming to this conclusion is not difficult. You only need to think forward a little to know that Minos' attack in this direction is indeed Chu Xuan's arrangement, and since he has no other enemies here, he is destined to have nothing to do. Thinking naturally radiates outward. Then the ancient information here in South America will naturally be reflected in one's own thinking!
It is natural and even reasonable that he would appear here at this time.
Well, no need to think too much. At this moment, I only need to complete one goal that I will definitely touch if I appear here.
[Lord of Thunder, King of Creation. 】
Jiang Yu's nature determines that he sincerely desires the shaping, reorganization, and maintenance of order - and there happens to be a lost ancient civilization that is old enough here. There is no doubt that it is the most suitable goal for order re-establishment. The only thing I don't need in this process is to resort to it verbally.
Because Chu Xuan did not directly convey this plan to himself in his own words.
That shows that silence is necessary at this moment.
so……
Golden thunder instantly covered the entire ancient ruins. Just like the Minoans who constructed completely useless catapults and catapults, the reappearance of civilization started with Jiang Yu's deliberate carelessness.
