Chapter 205
It turns out that I and others were just used once and then thrown away. Now because it has lost its effect, the other party has silenced it! "Oh? You're still alive after all this? It seems that although you magicians are not very good at fighting, your ability to save lives is quite strong!" Although he said this, the young man's tone was very dull, even Yu can be said to be indifferent, and it's hard to believe how much surprise he has in his heart.
"Ahem! You guy..." Although he was furious in his heart that he had become an abandoned child, but now that he was seriously injured and on the verge of death, the magician could not do anything after all, and could only swallow with a look of reluctance. took his last breath.
"Finally dead... Well, I remember the boss said he wanted to peel off the magic seal. Let me take a look, it should be this page..." The young man took out a gorgeously decorated, gold-inlaid book from the void. After rummaging for a long time, he found a blank page in a large hard-cover book with no title on the cover, then tore it out and threw it on top of the magician's body.
A blood-red glow flashed by, and lines and runes of unknown meaning gradually emerged from the blank pages. They were extremely complicated, and in just ten seconds, a very abstract and strange pattern was outlined.
At the same time, the magician's corpse also lost a certain aura that could only be felt by extraordinary beings, and turned into an ordinary corpse.
Just when the young man stepped forward and leaned over to pick up the "drawn" paper, suddenly, the blood flowing all over the ground under the magician instantly turned into dozens of extremely thin, high-speed water blades, leaving almost no trace of The blind angle cut off all the surrounding areas within tens of meters.
——This is the last counterattack left by the old magician before his death. The magic preset in the blood, using the old magician's body being touched as the trigger command, will instantly wipe out any existence within dozens of meters around.
Among them, naturally included the Oriental boy standing next to the corpse.
Snap, snap - The boy who didn't react at all was cut into dozens of pieces by the high-speed blood blade. After standing frozen for a moment, he immediately collapsed on the ground like falling blocks.
Could it be that this would actually end in a situation where both sides suffer losses and die together? No, that’s not the case! A few seconds later, a black mist of light appeared above the boy's broken corpse, and then in the next moment, as if a frame had been taken out of time, the intact boy reappeared here.
"Hiss—no matter how many times you die, you can never get used to this kind of pain!" The disheveled boy (who was shredded by the attack just now) twisted his body unaccustomedly, and leaned over again to take the pain that he had just lost. He picked up the pages of the book he picked up, as well as the tome that fell to the ground after being killed once.
Instead of looking for the place where it was torn off, he casually turned to a page in the middle and placed the page with complex patterns on it.
Miraculously, the pages stuck together instantly as if they were already connected at this location, and there was no trace of being torn off near the spine.
Obviously, this book is not an ordinary book, but something similar to a magic gift, and it is also a very powerful magic gift.
——At least, peeling off the magic engraving, which requires a professional magician to concentrate and carefully perform psychic surgery, can be completed so simply and easily with just a piece of paper and more than ten seconds, which shows that this treasure of strength.
Taking out a mobile phone from the void, the young man pressed it a few times and dialed a number. A few seconds later, the call was connected: "I'm done here, everyone has been killed.
How did the other groups finish? ...It's all done...Don't you need to destroy those data? ...Okay, in that case, let the 'Fox' take me away! " Hanging up the phone, putting away the phone, the boy once again took out a black short blade from nowhere.
This is a weapon commonly used by assassins called ninjas in that country in the far east, kunai.
However, this kunai is somewhat different from ordinary kunai. Its shape is a bit strange. There are arc-shaped bifurcations between the handle and the blade body similar to a sword grid. Coupled with the short blade in the middle, it looks like Like a three-edged dagger.
Moreover, the most special thing is that there is a black mark engraved on the cloth wrapped around the handle. If you look carefully, you will find four traditional Chinese characters - "Sword of Ninja Love".
The next moment, a young man with a golden hedgehog head, a white flame-patterned divine robe on his body, a forehead protector with a scratch on his head, and six beard-like lines on his face appeared here.
"I said, I don't like the name 'Fox'! If I hear you say that again next time, I will kill you!" Completely opposite to the sunny hair color of the blond boy, this The young man who was called "Fox" had an expression full of indifference, and his eyes revealed the hatred and anger that he was trying to suppress. His gloomy temperament greatly destroyed his originally sunny and warm appearance.
"Really? Then you have to work harder! Because even I don't know how to kill myself!" Regarding the blond boy's hostility, the black-haired boy did not show any weakness at all, but responded directly.
This immediately angered the blond boy with six beard lines even more, causing him to subconsciously mobilize some huge power in his body, and his body ignited with golden flames. The violent killing intent and momentum almost overturned this place. roof.
The black-haired Japanese boy was not to be outdone. Black smoke appeared on his body that only he could see. In an instant, more than 20 "black ghosts" appeared in front of him, and his own breathing There was also a sudden change, and some kind of ripples accumulated in the body vibrated and increased in an instant, and the originally thin body became bulging in an instant, and suddenly changed from a creamy boy to a muscular macho image.
Seeing that the two were about to fight here, suddenly, as if he had received some order, the blond boy took the lead in putting away his momentum. Seeing this, the black-haired boy had no intention of continuing the fight, and put away the group of " Black Ghost”.
Then, without saying a word, the blond boy with a stinking face just stepped forward and put a hand on the black-haired boy's shoulder. In the next moment, the two of them disappeared at the same time.
...On the other side, the artificial intelligence that monitors the entire planet with space detection radar, energy detection radar and other detection systems [Friday] seems to have detected something in the data fed back by the sensor.
But before it could mobilize more resources to track the looming changes, everything returned to calm, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.
However, artificial intelligence does not have hallucinations! ')266'\u003eChapter 265: Severed Clues \u0026 Current Situation of the Main World
In an abandoned church, Fang Yuan's figure appeared here.
"Tsk! Did you escape?" He looked at the empty church, and at the same time used a variety of methods including mental scanning to conduct detailed inspections here, but in the end he found nothing.
He's lost it again! Regarding the force that created the sub-servants, Fang Yuan started investigating as soon as the God-killing ritual was completed.
After spending a lot of time with various detectors in the space city and [Friday]'s diligent detection and investigation, Fang Yuan finally found clues about the other party.
But unfortunately, when he arrived at his destination, he found that the place had become a dead place, and everyone, whether magicians, artificial humans, or ordinary people, were brutally killed.
Even more than just killing, the body of the deceased was destroyed, especially the brain, which was not intact, which made it completely impossible for Fang Yuan to obtain information from the brain of the deceased.
Fang Yuan used his newfound psychic magic to try to summon the souls of the deceased for investigation, but to no avail.
Except for a small energy burst and slight spatial fluctuations detected on [Friday], the murderer left no other clues! However, this little clue alone is enough for Fang Yuan, who has super technological assistance.
After asking [Friday] to narrow down the scope of exploration to similar energy bursts and spatial fluctuations of the same type, Fang Yuan finally caught the opponent's tail! But this mysterious force does have two tricks. With unknown means, it managed to escape from Fang Yuan many times, and it was able to get in front of him time and time again to kill magicians whose identities were extremely secretive. The family was slaughtered.
The closest thing to the other party was just now. It seemed that something unexpected happened during the operation. The members of that force did not evacuate immediately after completing the silence. This gave Fang Yuan finally time to lock the opponent's position and almost We're about to catch them! Yes, almost.
In less than a second, when Fang Yuan arrived, another tragic scene of murder and corpses appeared in front of him. When he followed the space fluctuations that reappeared to catch up, he came here— —An empty, abandoned church.
Moreover, from here on, the clues were completely cut off. There was no next space fluctuation, no special energy burst. The group of mysterious forces that had never had direct contact with Fang Yuan just disappeared completely! The cold wind blowing in from the broken stained glass windows lifted up a few withered leaves, as if mocking Fang Yuan for the futility of his work, which made the annoyance in his heart well up, almost uncontrollably.
"Huh——" Fang Yuan took a long breath and calmed down.
There was some vague speculation in his mind that the other party might not belong to this world like him. Maybe it was like Ji Si Xiute and others that Yuzuka Satsuki once mentioned, or maybe it would be some kind of being who could travel through the world. Special forces, such as... reincarnations? Fang Yuan couldn't be sure.
However, after this setback, the pride and excitement he had just gained from killing his inhibitions as a mortal had completely disappeared.
Fang Yuan clearly realized that he was still far from being truly powerful! Strengthen yourself... Then, let’s start with the third method! ………………In the main world, Zhongnan Mountain, the magic circle outside a certain Taoist temple that cannot be noticed by mortals was touched.
"Hey, why are you here?" Sensing a visitor coming to the door, the Taoist priest walked out of the Taoist temple and immediately saw Fang Yuan, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Since the abnormal fluctuations that alarmed all the extraordinary people around the world broke out in Yuan's city half a year ago, Fang Yuan, who has been acting increasingly low-key, has not been seen for half a year.
"Did you cause that big commotion before?" As soon as they met, the Taoist priest asked directly.
As the person who knows Fang Yuan best in this world, the Taoist priest is almost certain that the incident is definitely related to this guy.
However, he did not report the incident to the country, or play any denunciation or exposing.
On the one hand, the incident itself did not cause any visible adverse consequences. Except that all the beings with extraordinary powers in the world were frightened for several minutes that day, no one was injured or killed.
On the other hand, although the Taoist priest is a modern person who has attended university (although he dropped out of university), after a long period of contact with the religious and extraordinary worlds, he has a more chivalrous spirit.
And for those who are in the chivalrous world, the most important thing is to put "righteousness" first.
As Fang Yuan's good friend and Taoist friend, whether from the perspective of personal morality or chivalry, the Taoist priest can't do such a thing of betraying his friend.
Fortunately, Fang Yuan did things cleanly. Although domestic and foreign forces of all sizes came to his city to investigate again and again, no one found anything unusual after he completely destroyed the underground base and restored it to its original state.
Although Fang Yuan is a supernatural person who lives in this city, he is very suspicious.
But on the one hand, no one knows his true identity except the Taoist priest, and on the other hand, with the power Fang Yuan controls, he doesn't have to worry too much about national power.
Therefore, Fang Yuan just spent more than half a year quietly - he directly regarded this as a good opportunity to practice in seclusion.
Now, Fang Yuan appeared in front of the Taoist priest again, but he had gained a lot in the past six months of practice, and he thought he didn't need to hide anymore.
"It is indeed related to me.
In fact, I didn't know that there would be such a big commotion that time..." Fang Yuan admitted the Taoist priest's questioning very straightforwardly.
"...Do you know what you are doing? That day, I really felt the wrath of heaven. You are not doing something that will anger heaven and people, are you?" "How is it possible! Although I am an alchemist who can refine the Philosopher's Stone with human souls, I never kill innocent people. Who do you think I am?" Fang Yuan denied unhappily.
"Then what happened?" The Taoist priest continued to ask.
"...I just summoned the Gate of Truth to descend into the world..." Fang Yuan thought about it and decided to reveal part of the truth.
Taoist priest: "..." Damn, no wonder there is the wrath of heaven, and the Gate of Truth was summoned to the world... The Taoist priest obviously knew the truth behind the Gate of Truth - even if Fang Yuan didn't say it, wouldn't he check it online? There are in-depth analyses of the plot of Fullmetal Alchemist on the Internet. The Taoist priest is naturally clear about the relationship between the Gate of Truth and a certain big boss.
Therefore, he finally knew why this guy in front of him hadn't shown up for half a year - he was really guilty! ')267'\u003eChapter 266 Soul Materialization and Yang Shen Realm
After seeing Fang Yuan off, the Taoist priest closed the door of the Taoist temple with a gloomy expression, and returned to his quiet room where he usually meditated and practiced with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
The Taoist priest sighed, feeling worried about the news Fang Yuan had just sent.
"Visitors from other worlds, fantasy monsters, secret realms... I hope things won't turn out to be the worst..." Well, Fang Yuan, who had been silent for more than half a year, suddenly showed up and approached the Taoist priest. In addition to the fact that he thought he no longer needed to worry too much about the power of the country, he also wanted to use the Taoist priest's mouth to convey a message to the country.
Yes, it was about the visitors from other worlds who traveled to the main world.
Ever since Fang Yuan picked up a vampire named Yuzuka Mayu, he understood that the main world was not as described in the general infinite flow of online articles, an absolutely safe place that would not be disturbed by other worlds.
On the contrary, this world with fantasy monsters, secret realms, and even some subtle differences in the eyes of the Gate of Truth is much more mysterious and dangerous than Fang Yuan imagined.
From Kisseshot and her teammates mentioned by Yuzuka Satsuki, to the mysterious forces that he has never caught, Fang Yuan has reason to believe that there are indeed one or more groups or forces in the multiverse that can actively travel through different worlds.
No one can guarantee that those who can travel through the worlds of various fantasy works will travel to the main world one day, and just like they did in the Type-Moon world, they will stir up all kinds of commotion and chaos everywhere.
Therefore, out of a sense of responsibility for the world he lives in, and on the other hand, as a kind of compensation for the huge commotion caused before, Fang Yuan hopes to send the information about the "other world" and "other world visitors" to the top of the national government through the Taoist channel, so as to attract the attention of those in power as much as possible.
As for why Fang Yuan didn't personally take action... Let alone the big fuss he made half a year ago, the fact that he was unwilling to reveal his true identity was enough to cast doubt on the credibility of all his words.
In any case, it is impossible for a national government to truly trust someone who is unwilling to show his face.
The Taoist priest is different. After all, compared with a "magician" whose true identity is unknown, the Taoist priest, an important figure in the religious world with a clean background, outstanding ability and great value, has a much stronger voice in the country's top leadership.
With him, at least this information will not be intercepted and ignored by some idiots who are just sitting there doing nothing during the process of passing it through, and it can be delivered to the country's top leadership.
... "The information has been passed to the Taoist priest, and the country should also have some preparations... Forget it, I'm not one of those people in power, why should I care about these things? I've done my best to notify them like this!" Halfway down the mountain, Fang Yuan sighed and said, throwing away the hidden worries in his heart.
Suddenly, he seemed to sense something, looked at the opposite hilltop, smiled with a little sarcasm, and shook his head. The next moment, his figure disappeared like a bubble, turning into a puff of green smoke.
In a valley several kilometers away, there was a slight movement in a dense bush.
Looking closely, there was a person hiding in the bush! After seeing what happened on the opposite hill, the sniper wearing an optical camouflage stealth suit and holding the latest electromagnetic sniper rifle immediately raised his head from the sniper scope and said to the communicator: "The target has disappeared, repeat, the target has disappeared..." Soon, teams of soldiers came out from all corners of Zhongnan Mountain, approached the place where Fang Yuan disappeared, and searched the surrounding mountains and forests, but in the end, they still found nothing.
... When Fang Yuan opened his eyes again, he was already in a huge empty and cold space.
No, in fact, he had not left here. The Fang Yuan who went to Zhongnan Mountain to meet the Taoist priest was actually just Fang Yuan's materialized spiritual body clone, which was essentially the same as the servant clone of the heroic spirit.
This was the ability he gained after completing the materialization of the soul.
Yes, this is the major breakthrough Fang Yuan has made in the past six months.
Since his clone in the F/A world obtained the Holy Grail and broke the barrier of the inhibitory force by force, Fang Yuan finally obtained the complete inheritance of the third law.
With the help of the huge amount of magic stored in the Holy Grail, and Fang Yuan's own soul is much stronger than ordinary people, he completed the process of soul materialization in just a few months at a speed far beyond the norm.
——Because the third law inheritance in the Holy Grail is closer to a sophisticated weave, under normal circumstances, it takes at least several years to materialize the soul of an ordinary person.
However, perhaps Fang Yuan's own soul has been strengthened a lot in the process of shuttling through the Gate of Truth many times, or perhaps it is related to the inner alchemy he has practiced, and his soul has been nurtured to be strong enough under the refining of qi and transformation of spirit.
In short, when Fang Yuan transformed his soul into material, his progress was unexpectedly fast.
When Fang Yuan finally completely transformed his soul into a material state, he suddenly discovered that his inner alchemy skills had also reached the Yang God realm.
Well, this is not surprising.
The so-called Yang God in Taoism refers to the highest achievement in the world of alchemy Yuan Shen practice. The performance after the great achievement is not much different from the materialization of the soul - it can also condense a substantial physical body with a pure soul spirit, and it has also gotten rid of the lifespan limitations of the flesh and blood body. It is almost immortal without a fatal blow.
However, one is a great achievement that was developed based on Western magic in the Type-Moon world and can only be achieved occasionally by relying on unrepeatable "miracles"; the other is the right way of practice that has been passed down since ancient times in the Eastern Taoist heritage of the main world. As long as the practitioner has sufficient qualifications, practices in the right way, and has deep blessings, although the difficulty is also very high, it is not an unrepeatable miracle.
The only advantage of the former over the latter is that after the soul is materialized, the infinite vitality generated by the immortality of the soul's essence, and the infinite magic attribute generated by the refinement.
According to the inherited classics given by the Taoist priest, although the Taoist Yang Shen realm has great magical powers, it is still limited by mana.
Or, it is limited by mental strength.
At the Yang Shen realm, there is no distinction between God and Qi. God is Qi, Qi is God, so mana is mental strength.
And those who have achieved Yang Shen, even if their Tao heart is firm and their mind is vast, their mental strength is naturally as vast as the ocean compared to mortals, but they will eventually run out of strength, which is not as good as the infinite magic power of the materialized soul. As long as they are not dead, they have endless magic power transformed from infinite vitality, which can be squandered.
However, after the soul is materialized, it seems that there is no way out, and the Yang Shen realm is only an intermediate stage in Taoist practice. After that, there seems to be a realm of both body and spirit, and physical ascension, and even the more illusory Taiyi, Daluo and other Taoist fruits in the legend, which seem to be much stronger than the materialization of the soul, which has no way forward.
If Fang Yuan had to choose between the two... Only children make choices! He wants them all! ')268'\u003eChapter 267 Thunder Shazam!
Crackling - In the dark room, a flash of lightning flashed, and a slender figure wrapped in black clothes appeared here.
The figure turned around and closed the open window, turned on the light, took off the mask covering her head, let down her bun, and revealed her true face under the light.
This is a girl who looks only twelve or thirteen years old. She has straight black hair, a delicate and beautiful face, a petite figure but also a slender figure. Although she has not fully grown up, she is obviously a beauty.
"Huh, today's harvest is also very good!" The girl changed her black ninja clothes, put on her home pajamas, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
[Master, how did I perform today? ] While brushing her teeth, the girl used her mind to show off to the "master" who existed in an unknown dimension.
[Not bad, the six powers in the spiritual base have been mastered almost, and the rest is to integrate and understand, and the combat experience. I can't help you with this. You need to practice more in the future.",
