The Ruins of Magic and Industry Chapter 70: What I Saw at the Goblin Guest House
After listening to this magnificent legend, everyone was immersed in the so-called three eras that were far away and even unfounded. The pre-modern era, the industrial age, the magical age, the name Gaia appeared in both eras, is it a coincidence or is it simply the same person, intelligent lifeforms? What is the era in which we live today?
Many doubts erupted after the elder Jill stopped talking. Liu Bai, Huo Hua, Xiao Hui, Wu Xiaoyue, Rong Wei two brothers, Luo, Ke Kesha These are all young people who have just stepped into this world on half a foot, and they are deeply attracted by this story of old Jill. If it's just a legend, why is it so detailed, the narrative of the past era, the relics left over from the current era, and the recent relics of the magic era, the mechanical soldiers, which Liu Bai Huohua and Xiaohui have personally seen.
"You may have a lot of questions, don't you?" Old Jill clearly knew exactly what kind of impact he could have on the hairy boys in front of him after telling this legendary mythical story, and this was probably not the first time he had told this story.
"Uncle Jill, what happened next, and is there a follow-up?" Wu Xiaoyue suddenly became civilized and polite, he who had always called Old Jill an old man, actually began to learn to call Old Jill according to his seniority, obviously it was the story of Old Jill that made Wu Xiaoyue, who has always been eclectic, bring awe to the past and old things. Old Jill is just a "old" light on the rising bed, right?
Although the old Gil found out that Wu Xiaoyue had changed his name, he didn't seem to be the "rudeness" of Wu Xiaoyue before, and his decades of caravan leader career made him have enough "tolerance" in the face of all kinds of things in the world, and the young man's pride is nothing, as long as his talent is enough to support his pride, the old Gil feels that those side things can be moderately ignored.
So he smiled and stretched out his dry hand to touch the head of Wu Xiaoyue, who was sitting next to him, and he continued: "Well, remember the stubborn people I just said about living in a corner or with few sparks? These people became the founders of our time, and after thousands of years of hard work, they continued the incense of various races, and in the face of the adversity of the world's supplies being looted by mechanical soldiers and buildings destroyed, they joined forces to finally destroy the remnants of the mechanical soldiers of the Age of Magic on the other five continents, and put the world in the right hands. ”
"Our time?"
"Yes, archaeologists call our era the 'Age of Ruin,' which means an era of barren magic, backward industry, and scattered hegemony. ”
"I can understand the backwardness of industry and the scattered hegemony, what does it mean to be barren in magic? In addition to the scarce bloodlines in our world that are classified as magic, is there real magic?" Huohua immediately refined the problem in Old Jill's words, but he clearly knew that there was no such thing as "magic" in this world today, even if it was Liu Bai's bloodline magic, it was only artificially forcibly classified as magic, in fact, most people in the world preferred to call this part "mutation inheritance" , It is the result of the mutation of the human body, and it has nothing to do with the so-called magic half-dime that has never been seen and is not boundary.
"Do you know why there is a 'magic age' in the legend? Because there were real magic books handed down in that era! So it's not that there is no magic in this era, but the magic factor in the air is consumed, and even if you have a complete magic form, you can't mobilize the magic factor that can be used. ”
"Is it true that the magic factor was absorbed by Gaia in the 'Age of Magic'?" Coksa threw his question to the smiling old Jill after motioning for the goblin waiter to start serving.
Old Jill gave Coquesha a kind smile, "It's a reasonable association! ”
Wow~ After listening to all the stories of old Jill, a kind of young man fell into a warm atmosphere, and they began to discuss that the world must be like that! Otherwise, how could there be those mechanical soldiers who appeared everywhere, otherwise why there are obviously mechanical soldiers as the blueprint, but the fundamental reason why they can't create mechanical soldiers is because of these eras. Both the pre-modern era and the Age of Magic had a clear technological disconnect.
As a pre-modern high-tech creation, the mechanical soldier has the scientific and technological strength that the industrial age does not have, so the existence of the high-tech mechanical soldier is not something that can be controlled in the current dilapidated era. All this makes sense under the hypothesis of "three eras, four eras!" But why is it said that it is the most widely circulated, but these people have never heard of it? Liu Bai asked Old Jill .
"In fact, the most widely circulated here refers to the most widely circulated in various imperial families, and I was also fortunate enough to save a princess by chance with my lord, and I learned these things with the kindness of the princess, otherwise I would not have the honor to know this hypothesis, old man. He stroked his beard, and Huohua saw a hint of smugness on the corner of Old Jill's mouth.
"I've been taught! Uncle Jill, come, I'll toast you! Feel free!" Liu Bai first picked up a large glass of beer in front of him, and Old Gil drank red wine, the two touched lightly, Liu Bai drank it all, and Old Gil also put down the wine glass after a sip, and the amount of alcohol in the elderly should be moderately controlled.
"Uncle Jill, we'll toast you too!" the others also got up and gave Old Gil a glass of wine before they began to taste the various dishes in front of them. Due to the fact that the stock of food in Shago City was originally relatively scarce, these dishes were relatively small, but the amount of dishes was full of sincerity, and the taste of the dishes was praised by everyone.
During this period, the dwarf Luo began to fight with Wu Xiaoyue. Luo found out during the banquet that Wu Xiaoyue's clever ghost tricked into drinking, maybe Wu Xiaoyue wanted to tease this dwarf, right? So Luo was domineering, and the agitated Wu Xiaoyue began to fight with Luo in a ratio of 1 to 10. Wu Xiaoyue had one cup and Luo had ten cups of beer until one of them lay down. Huohua and Xiaohui were afraid that the scene would not be lively enough, so they coaxed each other more vigorously next to the two.
However, Rong Wei, who was originally sitting opposite Old Jill, squeezed the position of Wu Xiaoyue, who was drunk, to the side, sat next to Old Jill and chatted with Old Jill in a low voice.
In the position next to Old Jill was Liu Bai, who was sitting in the main seat, and he was asking Koksha about the use of world fragments, and Koksha had no intention of concealing it, and told Liu Bai his experience and skills in using fragments for more than ten years.
Koksha is holding energy fragments, and he elaborates on how his energy fragments are subdivided into energy types, which should be a type of thermal energy, so he calls his fragments thermal energy fragments. There are three ways to use his shards. One is to condense the energy he wants to release through the conversion of fragment power through long-term condensation energy into "energy blocks" containing different degrees of energy, which has the same effect as many ordinary energy blocks, that is, energy used as various tools.
However, the energy block he condensed contained far more energy than ordinary energy blocks, and even as long as his time and physical strength were enough, he could even provide a super energy block that the entire chariot could not use up in a lifetime. Of course, this is just an exaggerated metaphor of his, to show the stability and uniqueness of the fragment's ability to condense.
He felt that the fragment was like a part of the "hand of God" given to the holder, and the holder was the user who had some "divine power".
The second is the protective performance of energy fragments, Coquesha can form a protective film on himself or others through the energy released by the command, and the strength of the protective film depends on the amount of energy injected into his fragments, which is one of the extended uses of fragments.
And the last one is the cluster attack of energy, which is most appropriately compared to the bullet of a firearm, which is to condense the energy "bullet" of the cluster in the hand to attack, and the power is also related to the energy input ratio of the fragment.
These are the forms of use as fragments, but the fragments of the two are fragments of different series, the thermal fragments are fragments of the energy world, and the overlapping fragments are classified by Liu Bai himself as fragments of the space world, and the method of use can only be roughly heard, and I don't know if I can learn from it. The next thing Coquesha wants to talk about is the key point that Liu Bai wants to hear.
Through the use of fragments over the years, Koksha found that his fragment energy began to burst out from the heart, so he guessed that the fragments of the world should be attached to the heart after merging with the human body. The hematopoietic heart can flow fragments throughout the body through blood, slowly transforming the body, allowing the holder to become more and more accustomed to the various powers brought by the fragments. However, the degree to which people can use the ability of fragments is not unlimited, and excessive use of fragments can cause people to be mentally weakened or even faint.
Therefore, after all these years of exploration, Coxsha quantified the fragment ability he could use, using a standard [Energy Cluster Bomb] as the base unit "1", so that he used this as a reference to compare the energy consumption of the standard-sized [Energy Defense Shield] with 3, so that he finally tried to use his own maximum mental power of 168. This helped him avoid the problems caused by fainting, and he also knew clearly where the limits of his combat ability were.
