Chapter 8 Adaptations
"I'm a good person, but I'm not a good person, if you want to kill me, do you want to run away?"
Chu Yan rushed out with his sword and chased after the four of them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The info island was very wide, and the four of them fled in different directions, and Chu Yan chased for several hours before killing all four of them. He dragged the corpses together and searched for all the demon pills. Pick up the sword again, take off the sword holster, insert it, and pin both of them to your waist.
At this time, Chu Yan cleaned up and realized that he already had 137 demon pills. More than 60 were shot by themselves, some of them were killed after being smoked and rushed over on the road, and some were robbed by other warriors.
Chu Yan was not in a hurry to leave, but continued to find a quiet place to sit down, swallow the demon pill, and turn into qi. This time, it took about 50 demon pills to train the third turn of purple qi to the end, and the earth qi entered the middle stage of the third turn.
At the end of the third turn, it is condensation. However, at the end of the third turn, it is not possible to rely on the demon pill, and it must be accumulated in place and then break through. Chu Yan didn't swallow it anymore, and got up to find the teleportation array.
"Maybe I'll be able to break through the thirteenth floor."
The thirteenth floor generally requires a high-grade physique to break through, but Chu Yan feels that his physique is different from others, and his exercises are also different, and he may have better gains by challenging the limit. Especially after the purple qi entered the end of the third turn, Chu Yan felt that his strength had increased again.
"The thirteenth layer is very helpful to me when I am in the stage of condensing my bones and strengthening my muscles." Chu Yan thought in his heart, and stepped into the teleportation array heading to the thirteenth layer.
The Trial Tower starts on the twelfth floor, and the map becomes many times larger, as does the thirteenth floor. But the topography of the thirteenth floor is very simple, close to a circle, with a large hall in the middle, nine gates. The teleportation array is inside. However, from the outside to the center of the main hall, the gravity gradually increases, and finally reaches 100 times the gravity. Every warrior who comes in will land at the edge of the map, and there is no danger.
This is mainly to test the deep defects and basic combat ability of the warrior's physique in a high-gravity environment.
There are also defects in the perfect refining body. This flaw can only be revealed in extreme circumstances. Even if a martial artist with a top-grade physique has not adapted to it, and suddenly enters this environment to fight, he will collapse due to the exposure of his flaws. Chu Yan's physique is only the 6th gear of the excellent medium grade, and his physique cannot meet the requirements of this layer, but Chu Yan is very confident in his body. His soft bone stage has just passed, and the weakest thing is the support ability, which can be tested here, soft to the extreme, how to harden in the gravity environment.
In this way, he could determine the more accurate direction of the next stage of body refining.
Starting from the thirteenth floor, the number of trialists decreased rapidly, and the corresponding thirteenth layer trial area was also greatly reduced. Chu Yan estimated that from the thirteenth floor, he should have encountered other people who came in from the trial tower.
There were no monsters on the outermost periphery, and after Chu Yan landed, he glanced at the whole audience, and only saw a person a few hundred meters away. The man was fighting a monster with a sword, standing with his feet straight, it didn't look difficult, Chu Yan estimated that his position was only about ten times the gravity.
The monster in front of him resembled a scorpion all the time, lying tightly on the ground, probably because of gravity, both of them seemed a little clumsy. However, the warrior had a sword in his hand, and he killed the monster in a few clicks.
In the distance, the main hall was faint, and Chu Yan walked step by step, about five hundred meters, and the gravity began to increase.
Twice.
Thrice.
Five times.
Chu Yan finally felt a little oppressive.
Octuple.
The lack of support of the bone chain gradually became apparent, and some places began to bend uncontrollably, and the cells were slightly flattened in gravity. Chu Yan could feel that his height was half an inch shorter. Chu Yan's leg lifting also became less refreshing.
There was a scorpion-like monster in front of Chu Yan, lying tightly on the ground, constantly shuttling. Unlike the monsters outside, this monster has thicker and flatter legs and a flattened body, increasing the area of landing and reducing the height. But his legs and feet are even stronger.
"Can I pull him up?"
Chu Yan barely jumped around the scorpion, and when he saw the opportunity, he stretched out his hand and tried to grab the scorpion's feet and lift him up. I don't want to because of gravity, my arm after the explosion is suddenly soft, and I don't catch the place I want to grasp. Chu Yan hurriedly adjusted, grabbed the scorpion's feet, and dragged him high.
Because after lifting the scorpion, the gravity he was bearing instantly increased greatly, and Chu Yan's feet were bent and he almost couldn't support it. Fortunately, the leg muscles were extremely flexible, and under Chu Yan's control, he held on and did not kneel.
Chu Yan smashed the scorpion to the ground again, lifted it high again, and smashed it to the ground again, feeling it repeatedly until he smashed the scorpion to death. At this time, a sword-lifting warrior happened to arrive, and when he saw him like this, he was quite curious, and he didn't know why he did this.
Ten times.
Some of the structures and joints in Chu Yan's body began to become fragile and soft, and they could no longer withstand the fierce battle.
20 times.
Chu Yan's height was lowered by five inches, and it was difficult to stand. The later warrior also became difficult. But he has strong feet and is still fighting bravely. Obviously, the support capacity is a cut stronger than Chu Yan.
"I have rigid and flexible bones, and I have not yet entered the late stage of bone forging, which is the time when my support ability is the weakest." Chu Yan was not discouraged because he was inferior to others in this aspect, but found out the reason and continued to move forward.
"Duh!"
Just as Chu Yan walked to the thirty times gravity zone, the two swords on his body fell out at the same time with their scabbards. Chu Yan subconsciously picked up the sword, but was pulled to the ground by gravity.
"It's so heavy!"
The sword is idiosyncratic, and unlike the iron sword, it is very light. But in a high-gravity environment, it is also particularly handy. Chu Yan's bone chain had been bent, his muscles were under tremendous pressure, and his height was only two-thirds of his original height after standing up again. The height of less than 1.7 meters became 1.1 meters, and he became a real short and fat dwarf. As long as Chu Yan raised his arm, it would cause some cells to shatter due to too much pressure. It is even more impossible to pick up a sword again.
"I would have known that I would have put the sword home and come back to the 13th floor." Chu Yan forgot about this stubble because he was in a hurry. Hurriedly checked the demon pill and found that the demon pill had no specific changes in the gravity environment, so he was relieved.
Chu Yan used his true qi and began to repair and exercise at the same time, tempering his physique. An hour later, the warrior had disappeared far away, and his sword had fallen to the ground not far away. Two more warriors came from behind, and when they saw Chu Yan dancing there and dancing happily, they all looked at him strangely.
"Neuropathy? Do you want to square dance here? The two secretly slandered themselves.
Tianhuixing, some ordinary people will also go to square dance after dinner at night.
The two of them didn't know that Chu Yan was refining his body with the help of the repair effect of purple true qi. After Chu Yan cleaned up some of the cells, he was already able to dance in the thirty times gravity zone. Although it looks like a lame and clumsy dance, it is a leap compared to the previous unsteady standing.
40 times.
50 times.
Chu Yan tempered as he advanced. Halfway through, because of the consumption of true qi, he ate a demon pill, which made the two of them envious. Chu Yan was slightly vigilant when he saw that the two of them showed greed, and he was very relieved to see that the two of them were slow to make a move and kept walking away.
At this moment, in the 50 times gravity zone, Chu Yan felt that his bone chain had reached the load-bearing limit, and the whole person was flattened. If you go any further, the muscles are likely to break. Chu Yan was in a dilemma.
Further on, the body may collapse.
Stop here, you can eat scorpion meat to satisfy your hunger, temper for ten days and a half months, improve the weight-bearing capacity of your body, and maybe you can go out, but the time in the gladiatorial arena will pass.
"What should I do?"
Chu Yan sat down cross-legged and prepared to think about it, not wanting the pressure on his body to suddenly decrease. A flash of inspiration immediately flashed in Chu Yan's mind: "Why do I have to stand and walk?" Isn't it okay to get on all fours and crawl on the ground? ”
Chu Yan thought about it and shook his head, feeling that it was too unseemly. But looking back, what do you care about so many rules? Isn't it right to have the best solution to a problem? The reason why I don't want to lie on the ground is because I feel ashamed and undermine my dignity. But in the face of life, is face and dignity still important?
Standing is a rule, and lying on your stomach is also a rule. Why do I have to follow another rule?
"Change!"
I should be flexible depending on the staging environment. I was used to living in a gravity zone that was suitable for ordinary people, and when I arrived in a special environment, I had to stick to my old way of life, but I didn't know that it was no longer suitable for the new environment.
So Chu Yan landed on all fours, and the pressure on the muscles of his limbs suddenly decreased.
But the cells in the body that were previously flattened suddenly stood up after lying down. These cells are pulled by gravity, snapped, and flattened again. Chu Yan's body, which was less than one meter, was suddenly squeezed to more than two meters long. The thickened body also instantly flattened to the ground.
The changes were so drastic that a large number of cells died instantly.
"I'm a wounded monster." Chu Yan secretly laughed bitterly.
At this moment, another spiritual light flashed through Chu Yan's mind. Chu Yan pondered carefully while repairing his body.
The strong in the empire are respected, but the strong come from the common people, and the more the population, the more the strong, the stronger and safer the country. Therefore, the empire severely punished the law to protect the people from the oppression and killing of the strong. The generalissimo practiced more hands, controlled the military, and used absolute strength to uphold the dignity of the law. No one in the empire dared to openly break the law.
The generalissimo was thus greatly loved.
But in the Night City, a place where even the Generalissimo is allowed to exist, it will not be completely in accordance with the laws of the Empire. Rather, it has its own independent system.
"I was accustomed to surviving in the safety of the Generalissimo's protection, and suddenly I arrived in the City of the Night, and I wanted to continue like that, only to encounter the pull of various forces similar to gravity, and fell into a crisis. It's like I'm used to surviving in a normal gravity zone, and suddenly I come to this 50 times gravity zone, and I still want to stand and walk, and I will only get seriously injured. ”
Hold on, it will hurt!
Be flexible, it will also hurt!
However, behind the blind perseverance is destruction. The sudden change was painful for a while, but it was possible to get back on your feet again.
In this change, dignity, face, morality, kindness...... It's not the most important thing, in order to survive, it is pragmatic to lie down honestly.
But when Chu Yan thought about it, he felt that it was wrong.
"Here, I can lie down! There, I can't! ”
Chu Yan thought that it was better to let him bow to the supervisor than to let him take a bomb and die with the director. In the same way, he can't let him go along with it, like those people on the twelfth floor, kill his compatriots in the same empire and the same trenches, and fight for himself the opportunity to improve his strength. As for why, what the difference was, he couldn't figure it out for a moment.;
