Chapter 135

Chapter 135

During this period, Yare, who had just become an out-exploration member, that is, the other person besides Riku and the severed-hand uncle Ivan, suddenly proposed to take away the entire map projector - this entire machine is also the same as the earth. The portable projectors on the website are about the same size and are indeed very easy to carry.

However, his suggestion soon led to ruthless refutation by leader Riku, because the map projector is powered by elves, and any item that causes fluctuations in elves may attract beings interested in it. , bringing disaster to the entire inhabited tribe.

In order to emphasize his serious attitude, Riku even threatened the other party with cruel words such as "If you want to die, just say it - I will help you."

Ya Lei saw the undisguised murderous intent in the other party's eyes, and he knew that Riku was serious! "Hug, I'm sorry..." he said, lowered his head and continued to draw the map.

However, at this moment, there was a heavy vibration on the ground.

"——!" At that moment, the three of them seemed to have made an appointment. They lowered their postures at the same time and rushed into the darkness to hide.

Riku took off his gloves, took out his knife, and without hesitation, thinned the tip of his index finger.

Press the exposed nerves of your fingertips against the ground, use your fingertips to collect the information coming from the floor, and put your other hand behind your ear to listen attentively.

In this way, even if it is just vibrations and sounds, depending on their degree and rhythm, Riku can deduce quite specific information.

'——...Distance is about fifty meters, walking on two legs, one leg, bulky and slow...height is about six meters...' Looking at the information conveyed by Riku in sign language, the experienced Iwang interpreted it first The moment he read the content, he broke out in cold sweat.

With a huge body that is more than three times the size of a human being, and slow movements - that means, what is the other party looking for...? Then, a deafening roar echoed all around.

‘Damn it, it’s a monster! ’ There’s no need to wait for Rick’s gesture, Yvonne has already decided.

It was a monster created by the "Demon King", a sudden mutation of the Phantasmal Species.

Basically a monster with low intelligence, it can be said that it is a beast with half a degree of intelligence.

Even so, even the lowest level of monsters will turn humans into pieces of flesh as soon as they touch them.

——In other words, there is no chance of winning! Escape is their only option.

However, if three people escape together, they will never be able to escape the hunting of the demon species.

In other words, someone needs to stay and serve as bait... At this moment, Iwang saw Riku's face turn around, with a dead expression without any emotion in his eyes.

——He knows what the other person will say.

"Ivan, this is an order."

Riku said: "——I order you to die here."

"Swear to your will and leave it to me!" A clear smile appeared on the face of the middle-aged man who had broken one hand - he happily accepted his fate.

Although he was very reluctant to give up, and although he had promised his daughter before setting off that he would definitely go home, in this situation, he had to make sacrifices for the sake of the entire human community - especially as the leader. Riku, his mind and decision-making are even more crucial, and there must be no mistakes! Rather than letting three people die here, let him, a crippled older man, die, so that two people can survive! ——In this cruel era, such cruel choices are commonplace for the human race.

"My family - my children, I leave it to you! ... I'm so sorry, Riku!" After saying his final farewell, the middle-aged man looked at death as he lifted the hood on his head and strode forward He ran outside, even making loud noises while running.

With his cover, Riku and Yare quietly escaped in the opposite direction.

"Roar——!!!" Hearing the roar of the beast, Ivan kept running at a fast speed. Looking back slightly, he immediately realized that his "enemy" was breaking up a large pile of steel debris and heading towards him.

The "enemy" was huge. As Rick guessed, it was a huge body that was more than three times the size of a human being.

The whole body is covered with black animal hair, and has extremely thick muscles. The bloody mouth is split to half of the face, and is filled with jagged and sharp fangs.

Such a monster was attacking the man without looking back, completely ignoring Riku and the two men who were quietly retreating behind it. This made Ivan laugh in pleasure - it was indeed a brainless beast! Of course, just in case, Yiwang decided to add another fire: "Come on! Monster species! Your prey is here!" He shouted loudly, as if he was taunting the monster - no, this is what is obvious ridicule! He had to use all his strength to keep the monster's attention on himself and not notice the other two humans not far away - this was exactly the meaning of Riku's death order.

The two people who lowered their bodies and fled behind the demon species heard Ivan's cry. The young man named Ya Lei couldn't help but wipe the tears flowing from the corners of his eyes and continued running forward without saying a word.

Although Riku looked expressionless and did not shed tears, the deathly stillness in his eyes was aggravated - another life was lost because of his order... On the other side, Ivan was running at high speed. It was completely unexpected that at his age, he could still run so fast that even the demons couldn't catch up with him for a while.

But he knew that this was only temporary. When his physical strength was exhausted, death would still come as promised, but he had no regrets about it. As long as Riku and Yare could escape safely... Thinking like this, he Squeezing out a little more strength, he stepped a little faster again, trying to buy some more time for his two companions.

Finally, when he could no longer see the two companions when he looked back from time to time, he knew that they were safe and his strength was about to be exhausted.

Yiwang stopped, turned around, and looked at the demon species striding behind him. His only remaining hand subconsciously clenched the dagger on his waist, and the bloody courage in his heart drove him to attack the "enemy." "He launched a counterattack, but his reason told him that closing his eyes and dying was the best choice at this time.

Thinking of this, he let go of his hand, closed his eyes, and waited for the pain of death to come.

At this moment, a voice came into his ears - "Open your eyes, hold the knife tightly, and watch!" Although it was a voice he had never heard before, Iwang couldn't help but obey the command of this voice. , immediately opened his eyes, and held the knife in his hand again.

But before he could get confused about this unusual reaction, what happened before him made him pause to think - "What is that...?" ! Thunder light, so dazzling that it made people cry, fell from the sky and struck the ferocious demon species, making it roar and retreat back with a roar.

However, what really made Yiwang unable to take his eyes away was the figure in the thunder light - it was a figure that was no different from a human being, but it was not wrapped in thick clothes like ordinary humans. The clothes, which are not made of materials but are absolutely light and comfortable, expose the head, face, and the lower half of the arms, and are not afraid of the poisonous black ash falling in the air.

What made him look even less human was the lightning bolts entwined in his hands - the lightning that had just defeated the demon species was struck from those hands that looked no different from humans.

This is magic... Ivan's first thought after he recovered his thinking was this - for humans, witnessing magic is witnessing the battles of other races, which is almost equivalent to death. It is safe to watch magic like this Performing it in front of your own eyes can be said to be an unprecedented experience.

And his next thought was - who is this? Is it human? No, absolutely not! It is impossible for humans to control thunder! Could it be a forest elf disguised as a human? But how could those tall, long ears disguise themselves as a talking monkey, without fear of being ridiculed by their own race! With his too poor imagination, Ywang did not have the courage to think in more outrageous directions such as "god species", but he still noticed something - the other party seemed to be protecting him? While he was thinking, the battle ahead was continuing.

The figure that looked like a human but was definitely not human, after using "magic" lightning to chop the demon species half to death, took a few random steps to avoid the opponent's violent counterattack, and then saw two weapons suddenly appear from his wrists. The blade made of light was several meters long. After getting close, with a few brushes, the demon was cut into pieces and completely killed! Putting away the "weapon" in his hand, the man clapped his hands casually as if he had completed a trivial task, turned around, looked at Yiwang, and said, "Do you want this kind of power?" 4000 +Two chapters in one, that’s all for today.

')548'\u003eChapter 547 So, what's the price?

The person who appears in front of Yiwang is of course our protagonist, Fang Yuan.

After finishing collecting information about the forest elves and goblins, he left the battlefield and wandered around the desolate land, looking for the human community hiding somewhere.

——Because of the existence of the gods, especially the God of War Artesio, Fang Yuan did not unscrupulously cover the entire continent with his perception, so the progress of his search was not very satisfactory. It was not until several days later that he found someone in another continent. Among the ruins of the battlefield, traces of several humans were found.

Moreover, what surprised him even more was that the human being who came into contact with this world for the first time actually met the real owner directly - what appeared in front of him was the hero who led a team to explore the goblin ruins at the beginning of the plot of the theater version. scene! Fang Yuan did not immediately jump out to contact the "protagonist" of this world. After all, the plot is the plot and reality is reality. After traveling through time so many times, he has long been able to distinguish the difference between the two, and he also knows that he cannot separate them. All the plots in the anime are taken seriously.

——If nothing else, didn’t the infinite reincarnation of Shinji Ikari in the EVA world just mess up the so-called plot? ! The same is true for this world. Fang Yuan will not act rashly before he has truly observed the humans in this world and drawn conclusions.

——Then, he saw a scene that moved him! When a fatal crisis occurred, whether it was Riku as the leader who forcibly suppressed his emotions and personally issued an order for his companions to die in order to "allow more people to survive", or it was The man named Yiwang didn't care about his own life, and he was determined to die without any complaints. Fang Yuan truly felt how united, selfless, and how human beings in this world are. Brave, so fearless.

Perhaps because of the danger of extinction, in order to ensure the survival of the race, humans in this world have abandoned almost all the dark sides of their human nature, and fully demonstrated the bright side of human nature.

From a moral perspective alone, it can be said that the human beings in this world are completely different from all the worlds Fang Yuan has ever seen. All human beings have countless streets. No, this is no longer a question of whether there is a street or not. It is simply a question of heaven. The gap with the earth, especially compared with the despicable humans in the apocalyptic world of "Pitch Black Bullet", is even more than a full galaxy away! Such a noble and beautiful brilliance of humanity... This is the real "human being"! Therefore, when he saw that the uncle Yiwang, who had lost one of his hands, was about to die at the hands of the demon species, Fang Yuan took action.

He didn't use too much power, just a thunderbolt and two energy light blades to eliminate this demon species.

And this is exactly what he calculated that human beings alone can do it - as long as the humans in this world accept this power.

However, when he asked the stunned Yiwang, "Do you want this kind of power?", the other party did not agree immediately.

This man who was almost ready to die, although he was momentarily shaken when he heard Fang Yuan's question, seemed to be about to agree immediately.

But he bit his tongue tightly in the next moment, using the pain to regain his composure - "Hug, I'm sorry, this great existence... But please allow me to ask, what is the price for this? " He didn't ask stupid things like "Humans can't use magic, how can they give me power?" Although the existence in front of him looked like a human being, it was definitely an existence far above humans. Since the other party as a superior person said it In this case, it must be something that can be done, and there is no need for him to worry.

What he is really worried about is after gaining this power - Yiwang, who is already a middle-aged man, does not believe that there will be good things that fall from the sky in this world. Since the other party wants to give him power, he must also pay the price.

It's just him. He was destined to die. No matter what price he had to pay, he was not afraid. But he was afraid that the other party was planning not just him, but the entire human race behind him... No, from this gentleman's point of view, Judging from the level, if you want to plan anything, there is no need to look for him as a crippled old man. His true target must be the entire human race! Therefore, even if he risks being killed, he must ask clearly! "...Interesting..." Fang Yuan looked at this man who could still remain calm in the face of the temptation of power, and nodded with some approval.

Although he is a sidekick who received a lunch soon after his appearance in the plot, this man named Yiwang has some very good qualities - reason! Although he is not as talented as the protagonist Riku and has a monster IQ that can play tricks on many races, but perhaps due to the life experience brought by his age, he is much more rational and calm than another kid named Yare.

"If I said, this price is everything! What would you say?" With a smile, Fang Yuan told a joke that no one in this world could understand.

However, as a listener, Yiwang only felt a huge pressure on his heart. It seemed that as long as he dared to say the word "no", a storm of destruction would immediately follow.

——Well, this was actually just the result of this poor man's self-imagination hypnosis. Fang Yuan did nothing, let alone deliberately oppressed the other party with his momentum.

"...!" Gritting his teeth, Yiwang was extremely entangled in the battle between heaven and man. On the one hand, he was afraid that if he agreed, it would bring unknown disasters to the people of the tribe. On the other hand, he was afraid that if he refused, he would completely anger the other party, which would instead bring disaster to the tribe. The tribesmen brought more direct destruction.

Both paths seemed to lead to no good results, which naturally made him extremely entangled. He even wished that he could die on the spot and be relaxed - but he didn't even dare to commit suicide in front of this adult, which might really anger him. ... Fang Yuan just watched this man's expression change, and at the same time read his every thought, and suddenly felt extremely interesting - this man's ability to scare himself is really powerful! And it’s actually very organized and logical! But in fact, he really wanted to do good things... After a long time, it seemed that he knew that he actually had only one choice. In the end, Ywang lowered his head and said the sentence with difficulty: "I am willing to accept this job." Power!" "Then, as you wish!" Along with these words, a ray of light shined from Fang Yuan's hand and shined into Yiwang's soul.

The next moment, this man who had been struggling on the edge of death for half his life saw a completely different world! ')549'\u003eChapter 548 Extraordinary Power—Psychic Power!

In Ivan's eyes, the world that had always been gray and depressing suddenly became extremely colorful.

Whether it was stone, metal, or the black ash like snow, all kinds of lights flashed on everything, but what really shocked him was the tiny spots of light that were everywhere in the atmosphere, as if they were alive, dancing, surviving, wailing, and dying in their own unique rhythm...　　"Is this... an elf?"　　Ivan realized what he saw without anyone telling him.

That was the third-ranked superior species in the world, the source of extraordinary power born from the core of the planet, the glory of the elf species! 　　He, a human who could not feel the existence of elves at all, could actually see elves with his naked eyes! 　　Ivan knew what this meant - it meant power, real power that could lead his people to live better! If other humans can see elves like him, then even if humans don't have the same magical talent as the elves, they can at least develop a civilization that uses elves to operate mechanical technology like the goblins - as long as they are not destroyed by other races before that.

Of course, such a fantasy only flashed through Iwan's mind. He has long been accustomed to the cruel reality and does not expect humans to become as powerful as the goblins.

He just thinks that if humans can have such power, they may be able to survive better in this endless war and survive until the day when the war ends, which may or may not come.

However...　　"What I give you is not just a little bit of insignificant extraordinary vision!"　　Fang Yuan's voice came to his ears.

This made Iwan, who came back to his senses, a little terrified, and he couldn't help but raise a trace of curiosity in his heart - in addition to the ability to see elves... Could it be the kind of "magic" used by this adult just now? 　　"Well, first of all, let me correct one of your mistakes. What I give is not the magic of this world!"　　Fang Yuan seemed to see through every thought of Iwan and said so.

This ability that seemed to read minds made Ivan even more awed by the adult in front of him whose race he did not know, and he dared not think about random things in his mind, for fear that one of his thoughts would accidentally anger the other party and cause a disaster.

But he was also attracted by the content of Fang Yuan's words - the extremely terrifying thunder and the light blade that killed demons like killing chickens, if it was not magic, then what was it? 　　"This is what I created specifically for you humans. It does not rely on the extraordinary power of the elves. It comes from your will and soul. It can basically do what magic can do, and it is even better than magic in some aspects. I call it - psychic power!"　　"Psychic power..."　　Like a preaching immortal, or a prophet who has descended divine inspiration, Fang Yuan imparted their first extraordinary power to the humans of this world.

As the recipient of the inspiration, Ivan listened with awe and nervousness, not daring to miss a word.

"The essence of psychic energy is the power drawn from the deep dimension of material time and space, but the key to making psychic energy work is the 'seed' I gave to you humans... Well, it's too early for you humans to say this now.

What I'm going to say next is the key point!" Fang Yuan said in an emphasizing tone: "--Any human with a mind and a formed personality can awaken psychic energy through learning and training.

You can use it to summon thunder and fire, wind, frost, rain and snow, or use it to condense energy-state weapons and armor, and even use it to strengthen your strength, speed and even recovery ability, and even distort it after practicing deeply. Space, shaking time! All the abilities you imagine, in theory, can be done by psychic power.

Its power depends on only two points-willpower and imagination! Willpower determines the upper limit of your psychic strength, and imagination determines the number of means you use psychic power. Only when both are equally strong can the power of psychic power be truly exerted! "It was difficult for Ivan to understand some of the words in the words of the adult in front of him, but he still understood the general meaning. The power called "psychic power" he was given was a power similar to the omnipotent magic but different, and this power requires willpower and imagination to be truly exerted.

For Ivan, who has experienced hardships and even looked down on life and death, he is still somewhat confident in willpower. Although he is far inferior to the young leader Riku who was burdened by the adults like them but still carried the burden forward, from the point of view that he can act as a bait for death without hesitation, his willpower is already superior among ordinary people.

But imagination... I'm sorry, this is really a bit difficult! He was already middle-aged, his mind wasn't very active, and he didn't have much knowledge except for some survival experience he had gained from struggling for half a lifetime.

Asking him to use his imagination to control psychic energy... Unfortunately, after trying for a long time, he could only barely make the wrist blade that Fang Yuan had used before, and it was much worse in length and stability.

However, even so, when Ivan saw a blade of light emerge from his only remaining arm and effortlessly cut the metal armor plate of the goblin warship into two pieces, the ecstasy and shock in his heart could not be described in words.

"Tsk, it's just so-so..." Fang Yuan was not very satisfied with this, but after all, the person he was preaching to was just a sidekick who received lunch within a few minutes of appearing on the scene, so the requirements could not be too high.

In fact, with the current ability of this guy named Yiwang, with a few days of training, he can basically kill non-blood-bad individuals among the orcs one-on-one. If he learns how to use spiritual energy to strengthen his body, If he had strength, he could even kill the demon species alone like Fang Yuan Gang.

It's a pity that looking at him like this, he doesn't want to come up with "magic skills" like the psychic lightning that Fang Yuan used before. Basically, he will be a warrior for the rest of his life... When Yiwang calmed down from the ecstasy , he remembered the great god standing next to him, and suddenly asked with some panic: "I'm sorry, sir, I'm a little out of control... What do you need me to do next?" This is almost the attitude of the slave towards his master - -Since this master has given him such a powerful power, he can only dedicate his "everything" to the other party as he said before.

"Huh?" Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows, feeling very interesting at the subtle change in the guy's mentality, but he didn't do this just to collect slaves.

Therefore, he just said in a calm tone: "I need you to return to your tribe and pass on your power to others! Don't worry, as I said before, I have given you the 'seed' of psychic energy. Humans, as long as you let your kind come into contact with your psychic energy, they will naturally know how to use it!"')550'\u003eChapter 549: The Transfer of Fire!

Watching Yiwang leave with a heart full of worries, Fang Yuan's eyes flashed with anticipation.

Of course, what he was looking forward to was not Yiwang, a middle-aged man with average talent, but the human race that was about to take a big step into the extraordinary era.

Especially under the command of Riku, a young leader who is as smart as a monster and resolute and courageous, what kind of path will humans who have gained psychic powers take? He was very curious and looking forward to it... When Yiwang returned alive to the settlement hidden in the heart of the mountain, it naturally caused a sensation.

When the people in the settlement heard the news that "Ivan is dead" from the returned leader Liku, they all accepted this reality sadly but helplessly.

——After all, in such a shitty world, a group of three people went out to collect supplies and intelligence, and only lost one person when they brought back a new map. It can be said to be a very cost-effective thing.

In fact, in the past few years since Riku became the leader of this human community, only 48 people, including Iwang, have died. This is different from earlier, when hundreds or even hundreds of people were killed and injured from time to time. Compared with the miserable years, it can be called unprecedented "peaceful" days, and we can't expect more.

Moreover, the adults in this settlement also know that when the smartest and most decisive leader of Riku gives an order to let a person die, his death must be meaningful and will definitely save the rest. Most people - everyone believes so.

Therefore, although Ivan's death makes people sad, and his daughter's cry is also heart-wrenching, after mourning, everyone can only pick up the legacy of the deceased, accept this reality, and then continue to live - live, This in itself is the greatest reward for these respectable deceased people! However, no one, including Riku, had ever thought that Iwang, who was supposed to die at the mouth of the monster, actually came back alive! "Yiwang, how... did you do that?!" When Riku, who had locked himself in his room to vent his self-blame, heard the news and rushed over and saw Yiwang who was hugging his daughter and crying, even He, who had always presented himself as a calm and courageous person, could not help but show an expression of astonishment.

"Ah, it's Riku!" Yiwang looked at the boy who had ordered him to die before, raised his head, and showed a smile without any haze - he really didn't hate him, after all, under the circumstances at that time, he was the only one among the three of them. Riku only made this choice as the leader.

Even when he chose to accept the order at that time, he felt more guilty for the young man Riku - adults like them were really too incompetent to put such a heavy burden of human lives on the shoulders of a young man. Ah... Of course, now that he is back alive, he has fulfilled his promise to his daughter, and a burden has been lifted off Riku's shoulders. This makes Ivan feel happy from the bottom of his heart.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a little pity. It would have been nice if the person who had been taught "psionic power" by that adult was not himself but Riku.

In that case, with Riku's intelligence, he must be able to get more information from that adult, and his understanding of "spiritual energy" must be deeper than his own! However, this idea was overturned by himself the next moment - if Riku accepted the inheritance of spiritual energy, wouldn't it be equivalent to losing his life and becoming him? This was an absolutely impossible choice to make at that time... Although his heart was filled with endless thoughts, Iwang still heard Riku's question and immediately planned to explain this incredible experience clearly.

However, before he could speak, Riku immediately interrupted: "Wait a minute, let's put the rest aside for later. Ywang, tell me first, there shouldn't be anything chasing you behind you, right?" Although a little unkind, Riku, as the leader, has to shoulder his own responsibilities. For the safety of the entire settlement, he must ensure that nothing goes wrong.

"Ah! Don't worry! Nothing is chasing me, and the demon species is dead! And the fact that I can come back alive is related to this!" Iwang patted his daughter's head, who was glaring at Riku, and didn't mind Riku. attitude, because this kind of caution is the attitude that is truly responsible for the entire human settlement.

Immediately afterwards, he dragged Riku to a corner and described his previous fantasy experience in as clear and plain language as possible - he did not dare to rashly describe it before asking Riku for his opinion. Tell everyone about this.

"Psychic energy...are you sure that being said that this is a 'power created for humans'?" "Yes, that adult is right."

Seeing the pure white light shining in Iwang's hand, Riku believed the other person's words, but at the same time, he was also full of surprise in his heart - Could it be that God has opened his eyes and there is really a kind of god who likes human beings, so he came to give it to him? Got the power? Unlike Iwang, who had little imagination, after hearing what happened, Riku immediately associated Fang Yuan's identity with the divine species.

Because to other races, humans are just talking monkeys, livestock, and food. For some races, they are even worse than food. It is impossible to perform this kind of "transferring power" behavior.

But it would be different if it was a divine species.

Although there are several species of gods existing in the world today, each one has greater magical powers than the last, and they also have their own races and followers, and it is impossible to look down on mere humans.

But what if the new student is a god? What if it is a god who is not good at creation? Then will He need humans, a race that no one cares about? Although it was just an extravagant hope in his heart, and although this kind of "attention" might bring greater disasters, Riku could not help but feel his heart beat faster.

If there are gods who are really willing to take care of humans, then maybe... Riku stopped his meaningless reverie and returned his mind to practical matters.

"You said that adult asked you to teach us this power called 'spiritual energy', and also said that we humans have been given 'seeds' by Him... How to teach it? And do you know what that 'seed' refers to?" What is it?" Riku asked.

However, regarding this problem, Yiwang, who was also confused, could only shake his head and express his helplessness: "The professor... the adult said that as long as you are exposed to spiritual energy, you will naturally know what to do. As for the seeds... I still want to ask Yours, did you notice anything?" "..." "..." The two looked at each other without speaking, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.

After a while, Riku broke the silence.

"Okay, since it's about 'contact', I guess it's useless just to look at it. Maybe it requires physical contact..." With that said, Riku stretched his hand forward and touched The pure white light radiates to Ivan's left hand.

The next moment, an invisible seed in his spirit suddenly exploded and turned into a pure white flame, illuminating his entire soul.

At this moment, Riku truly understood that this was "psionic power"! Third update completed')551'\u003eChapter 550 Holy F2...
