Chapter 52: Multiple Parallels

In the end, the Lion and Paparals were allowed to go, after all, their magic furnace was quirky, but it didn't break the rules of the game. There is no rule in the Continental League, alchemists must use a special magic furnace to compete.

The three of them, led by the staff, entered the competition room through a long corridor, the competition room is a closed place, and before leaving, the dwarf staff couldn't help but ask a little curiously:

"You two, why do you have to use such a magic furnace?"

"Didn't I say that, my friend," Red replied gracefully, "I'm a Templar, not an alchemist. ”

"Hah, you're really kidding." The dwarf laughed and said to him, "Look at those guys' faces are green, what about the battle craftsmen, our Templars are also masters of alchemy"

The lionman shrugged, trying to tell him that he wasn't some master of alchemy. But I heard the Paparal man say in a loud voice: "You are right, I am a master of alchemy, not only that, but I am also a cartographer, because I work several jobs at the same time, so I am always hungry and fast, you must understand that human energy is limited, but Paparal's appetite is unlimited." ”

The dwarf understood, and closed the door.

Outside the arena was already a sea of cheerfulness

"Haha," the dwarf lady couldn't help but wave her fist at the lionman Red's answer, "That's a great answer, we don't even need to send in a dedicated alchemist, our Templars' alchemy is even much better than those poor Guta." Stray horses, look at the faces they face when they hear this, it's even more embarrassing and comical than Arquette fell into the horse manure pile last month. ”

The wandering horse was also a little funny, but he always felt that the big cat man didn't seem to be lying, and he couldn't help asking, "What if what he said is true?" ”

"Really?" Aisha shook her head, as if she had heard the biggest joke of all, "How is this possible, our staff are not stupid, how can it really be possible to let a Templar enter the competition?" ”

The wandering horse looked at the projection above the arena and nodded in agreement.

yes, how is that possible?

I was really worried.

In the projection above the arena, Fang Zheng entered the competition room and curiously looked left and right at the environment. Naturally, he didn't know that his actions had fallen into full view, and under the thousands of eyes, he also sighed that Elpahin's assessment room was really big, at least much bigger than Kapka's.

There is only one console in the assessment room of the Kapka Artisan Association, and only one person can participate in the assessment at a time. But there are as many as five of Elpahin.

He curiously touched east and west, and this action fell in the eyes of everyone, causing another laugh in the heart.

It's too exaggerated, it's too exaggerated, Elpahin's game is already the last two rounds of the league, even if the players of each team haven't played in person, but I don't know how many times I've seen such a room, is it necessary to make such a look like a hillbilly entering the city?

In the eyes of the audience of Al Pahin, this is clearly a slap in the face of the Guta people before him. Fang's demeanor, in their opinion, clearly meant that even if I hadn't seen these things before, even if I was a novice, I could easily defeat you and enter the top five steadily.

As for whether it can be defeated, isn't that an obvious thing? As the birthplace of the school of construction, the Kapka Artisan Guild is small but has a long history, even above Elpahim in the alchemical world of Kaulin Ishurian. As long as they are not forfeited in this game, even if they make a few big mistakes and only get the base points, they will not fall out of the top five with the previous points.

The audience burst into laughter, and only the representative area of Guta was dead silent, as Ms. Aisha said, and everyone's face looked like they had eaten a fly or were still alive.

But Fang had no idea what was going on outside.

God, he's really looking at this room, it's a round room, and it's full of pipes. The brass-clad pipes lead to a large metal orb suspended in mid-air in the center, which is in fact a spherical magician, known as the Aether Furnace. Since the time of the Noumerin Elves, alchemists have been using these 'numerical control machines' known as magic guides to make top-notch precision magic guides and mechanical structures.

To this day, the kernel of this thing has not changed much, but its security and stability have been improved.

Of course, he knew that the aether furnace in front of him was not a real aether furnace, but a teaching aid specially used for testing after transformation, and it did not have a real smelting function. He'd seen something like it once in Kapka, but it was much smaller than the one in front of him.

He looked at the five consoles that protruded from the ground, then removed the control gloves and handed them to Red behind him, before walking forward alone.

At this time, the arena was like a stone falling into the water, and the ripple circles rippled in circles.

The audience in Al Pakhin stopped laughing, and the sound of whispering to each other gradually spread through the arena.

"How do you feel that this boy is the leader of the Kapka Artisans' General Association?"

"yes, I thought it was the big cat, could he be too young?"

"Why did that Paparal sit down and start eating, wait, the apples he took out of there?"

"It's a little strange to me, didn't you notice that there were only three of them?"

The wandering horses were also a little curious.

He had now recognized the three of them, and the other party was the strange combination he had seen in the middle of Elpahim before. However, he couldn't help but wonder if these people had already been in Al Pakhin, why did they come now?

And this game is a five-player format, although there is no clear rule that you must be full to play, but how can three people complete the game?

He couldn't help but look at Lady Aisha to the side.

But the dwarf lady was equally puzzled: "Why did he go up alone, and what about the others?" I thought there were two of them yet, isn't this little guy going to wait for the others? ”

Ma Er subconsciously glanced at the live broadcast room, he knew that maybe there would be professionals among the fans, but this time he was disappointed, his audience did not know the format of this competition even more than him.

The focus of people's discussion in the barrage is Fang's glove

This is also normal, fighting artisans on earth is a fairly hot topic. Most of the ordinary followers of the New World will relish this profession, and some of the famous Electors of this profession are well known.

"That guy is still a combat craftsman, at such a young age, is he still a Drafter?" Someone asked.

"That's for sure." The next barrage answered him immediately. "It's common knowledge that the average aboriginal alchemist is older. And that's the fourth-generation gimbal of the Kingfisher Workshop, and this glove is used by the Mai of the Dragon Ai Wine Guild, which is exactly the same, and the Electors like this type of glove very much, even including the Electors of the Othello Empire."

"Ha, then he's also a combat craftsman. I said earlier that the big-breasted and brainless basewoman was a combat craftsman, and I thought it was so powerful, but I didn't expect us to have it. ”

"Yes, the anchor can't increase the prestige of others and destroy his own ambition."

Seeing the audience talking, the wandering horse couldn't help but shake his head.

Although he is a landscape anchor, he has been in Aitaria for a long time, at least he has a higher vision than these people. Wearing a control glove is a combat craftsman? Not necessarily, most Artisans will wear a Control Glove or a Clockwork Elf or something, even if they're not combat tinkerers.

After all, it's not just combat craftsmen who can control flexible construction, and the clockwork fairy has no requirements for mana adaptability, and it's not particularly difficult in the case of single control, and practice makes perfect, once mastered, it's a very convenient skill to use.

But the alchemist itself is a very time-consuming job after all, each category is a specialized category, and it takes a lot of experience for the recruiter to pile up alchemists like vikki, who are still outstanding in both fields, are there a few, that can be said to be purely a talent.

It's no wonder that MVPs will train her as a trump card.

However, he was about to explain the problem to his audience, and it was at this time, above the projection, that Fang said a word to Red. After handing over the gloves to the big cat, he said to the latter and the Paparals, "Wait for me here, and I'll come as soon as I go." ”

Then he turned and walked to the console alone

You wait here for me, I'll come when I go?

Lady Aisha opened her mouth and looked at the wandering horses beside her.

And the stray horses were looking at her with almost the same expression.

The arena exploded in an instant.

The audience seemed to understand that Red was really not joking that he was really a Templar, and that Paparal was really a blueprint, a thief, and what he called alchemy.

God knows what the hell his alchemy is, probably the alchemy in the belly look at his shy little belly.

When the president of the Elpahin Artisans' Guild, the dwarf Rogetta saw this, she almost shuddered and pulled her black beard off. He screamed in pain, clutched his chin and shouted loudly, "What are they doing, what are they doing?" ”

He almost jumped to his feet in a hurry, and wanted to rush in to find trouble for Fang if it weren't for the staff group surrounding him.

The dwarven president had no choice but to turn around and find Jenny, who was sitting on the flower bed, pecking at the head of a chicken like a peck of rice. He picked up the little girl and roared at her, "Where did you find these people!?" Let's have a Templar, a thief go to an alchemy competition? It's great that we're finally famous, and the Artisans of Elpahim will always have a big name, but I'm afraid that by next month, no one in all of Attaria will not know about us, which is great! ”

Jenny was so frightened by the dwarf that she didn't know what to say for a while.

"What about Ottolos, what about the rest of Kapka, let them come to me!"

"I don't know, I don't know, Mistress Rogerta," the little girl burst into tears, shaking her head like a rattle. "It was Lord Arquette and Lord Merriffin who asked me to send him here, I don't know anything, and I don't know where Lord Otoros is."

"Arquette?" Rogerta's voice raised an octave: "Isn't that damn bastard on duty, that's what he's on duty for?" What the hell is he doing, tell that damn bastard to come and see me, if I don't see him in five minutes, you tell him I'm going to strangle him myself!" ”

The little girl was so frightened that she fell asleep and woke up, and hurriedly nodded, and when the dwarf chief let go of her hand, she ran out without looking back.

It was as if she was not facing a dwarf, but a grumpy dragon.

Rogetta let out a long sigh and couldn't help but look in one direction. The person in charge of the ancient tower was already smiling when he saw this scene, although he couldn't hear what the other party said in that direction, but looking at the expressions of the other ancient tower people around, it must not be a good word.

Seeing this scene, the old dwarf's face couldn't help but become even more ugly, and his nose was almost crooked.

But the hustle and bustle outside the playing field doesn't affect the silence inside the playing room

Fang silently walked to the console and placed his hands on the cold metal table with ease. He exhaled softly, then closed his eyes, and the lion and the Paparal, who was sitting on the ground, were looking in this direction curiously.

But Fang couldn't feel the eyes of the outside world anymore

It was pitch black at first, but the darkness lit up with a little starlight, a scene that was familiar, like the one he'd seen in that test system. At the same time, it is also like the artisan system itself, where the starlight is connected to each other, gradually forming a complete spherical nebula.

A 'stellar sphere'.

It is both similar and different from the first two.

The similarity between it and the craftsman system lies in the way it operates and the structure itself, but the difference is that the craftsman's production system has a real structure at every point, and connecting every node is like advancing the production progress.

But here, there are only imaginary connection points, and there is no structure, which requires more accuracy of the connection, but the requirements for the progress of the work are equal to none. Not surprisingly, it is itself a fictitious etheric melting furnace that removes the physical part of the material and turns it into a virtual teaching aid.

In this respect, it is somewhat like the test system given to him by the mysterious Shana, and even in appearance, it is almost identical. But it's not exactly the same, because the 'stellar sphere' doesn't have a fixed starting point.

Just like a craftsman's craft, the 'Stellar Sphere' can start at or end at any place.

The Artisan system is actually a simplified version of the 'Stellar Sphere' and the Aether Furnace, and both the Electors and the Natives, when they reach a certain level of alchemy, will also go the same way and start using large devices such as the Aether Forge to make magic guides.

After all, it is neither efficient nor realistic to want to rub a battleship by hand.

It is for this reason that the Artisan General Assembly will use this method as an assessment for alchemists, in fact, alchemists systematically study various theories and knowledge in the early stage, and finally prepare for this step.

So in a way, because of the existence of the Elect system, the Electors do have a better first-mover advantage over the Aborigines on this path. The emergence of more and more callers in the continental league is also a historical inevitability.

However, although he had been mentally prepared, Fang couldn't help but be startled when he saw this planetary sphere. It was much bigger than the one he had seen in Kapka's first artisan exam.

Last time, the stellar planet was only about a meter in diameter, and this one, compared to it, is like a comparison between a table tennis ball and a basketball.

He stood in front of the huge orb, and he almost had to look up to get a glimpse of it. In the spherical structure, thousands of points of light make up the glittering shell of such a star.

"So big?" Fang thought to himself. "This has to be connected one by one, and it has to be connected to the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month?"

Before Shana gave him that test system, he might have spent an hour connecting the huge sphere bit by bit.

But at this moment, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Fang's heart.

He knows that the craftsman assessment process is generally not monitored by anyone because it involves the best of each craftsman, and the craftsman will always only look at the assessment results. What's more, even if someone monitors it, it's actually nothing, and this method is not the only one, right?

He has been working behind closed doors these days, and he has finally passed the second level, and the last level of the third level is almost halfway through, if he is not too busy, maybe he will already have the result.

In fact, Fang has long wanted to find an opportunity to verify the results.

And the huge stellar planet in front of him was undoubtedly the most suitable test object in his opinion.

It had always been his good habit to do it when he thought about it, and he gently pressed his hand against the metal panel, felt the cold touch of his fingertips in response, and then took a deep breath. Thoughts flickered, and thousands of signals emanated from the central nervous system, passing through the nervous system at the speed of light, connecting with the aetheric magic and descending to the metal panel below.

Between the skin and the cold metal, it was like an electric spark.

In the darkness, a great will plucked the superstrings, as if in the decaying dark universe of infinite heat death, the particles of light were once again ignited.

It was the first moment of the world, and God said there would be light, and therefore there was light.

Five bright stars, all in unison

The light came from the deepest part of everyone's eyes, like the most brilliant and moving candle flame, swaying in the projection above the arena.

There is an old legend in some areas that when everyone suddenly quiets down, there must be an angel flying overhead. And at this moment, in the courtyard of the cloister planted with wisteria, it is exactly such a scene.

Jenny was hurrying in with Arquette from outside the cloister, "Hurry up, Lord Arquette," the little girl said in a panic, "Lord Rogetta may really strangle us to death later, Lord Arquette, you are a lot old, but I am still young." ”

"Shut up," Arquette exclaimed, "I've never seen a stupider girl than you." ”

As he walked out the door, he was startled by the pantomime scene in front of him.

Everyone is like a scene in stop-motion animation, motionless, quietly watching the scene on the projector not far away. "What's going on?" Jenny almost bumped into the old dwarf from behind, and when she saw this scene, she was puzzled.

But Acquet ignored her, and suddenly an arrow shot to the side of the projector, his eyes bulging bigger than a brass bell, and he said with a cold breath: "Lotas is on top, this ...... What is it and how did he do it!? ”

Within the five star systems, civilizations were born, and they began to expand outward

The fleets of civilizations are woven of light, and they draw five straight lines in the darkness, and they march in unison towards the next destination system.

Neither fast nor slow, they just go hand in hand.

It's like a silent stave.

Stretching forward, and composing the world's first poems and songs

If it had been three days ago, this would have been the limit of the square.

But not now.

Fingertips moved slightly.

In the second layer of lit galaxies, the footprint of civilization has once again expanded. Like the birth of five empires, the two trajectories separated in unison, each extending in different directions to the left and right.

Five to ten.

Civilization has entered a period of brilliant expansion, and the millennium is like a moment, and an expanding network of light domains has been connected.

It was a period of intermingling of civilizations, meeting each other, fighting each other, being compatible with each other. It was like a huge glass container, and an invisible hand injected an invisible flow of light into it, and a thin layer overflowed the bottom of the container.

It is slowly spreading upward.

Silence.

Everyone watched the scene with their mouths wide open.

The wandering horse is not exempt from vulgarity, he even forgot his commentary work, but in the field of vision, a somewhat eye-catching barrage in the live broadcast room swept through the afterglow of the perspective

"Multi-sub-control technology."

"It's They're Back"

"Now the Super Athletic League has fun."

These barrages sent by the same person made the wandering horse slightly stunned, and when he subconsciously wanted to find the spokesperson, he only saw a prompt: lafooh_es left your live broadcast room.

The wandering horse froze slightly, vaguely feeling that this ID was a little familiar.

The sphere was already a third of the way up.

……

Under the projection screen, Luo Hao was still immersed in that huge shock.

Behind him, the young instructor had already exclaimed, "Multiple divisions? This shout made Luo Hao subconsciously turn his head, since he saw this young instructor, it was the first time he had seen the other party so out of control.

"Multiple sub-controls?" Luo Hao frowned slightly, he prides himself on being well-informed in the community, he knows a lot of genres and knowledge in super sports, and even some secondary competitions that others don't care about, such as professional competitions like the Continental League, he is also very concerned.

But he really hadn't heard of a technology called multiple divisions.

Luo Hao couldn't help but look at his instructor curiously, but after listening to his description, the instructor didn't even look at him, then turned around and picked up his personal communication device. He stepped aside with a somewhat serious look on his face and pressed a number.

Traveler's rest, in the hall of the dragon's horn

Zhang Tianmu was tilting his head to check the repair effect of the dome of the hall, and after a few days, there were few traces left by the chaos of the day in this hotel, and the only thing that made people feel a little awkward was that the huge and hideous dragon horn hanging in the center of the hall had disappeared, making the place look a little empty.

He was about to turn around and leave, but it was at this moment that a prominent prompt popped up in his Summoner system.

Zhang Tianmu looked at the contact, and pressed the answer button without thinking about it.

About a few minutes later.

There was a whirlwind blowing in the hall.

All the guests saw a line of members of the Stargate Special Guard in black trench coats hurrying by, and these soldiers walked through the side gate with solemn expressions and disappeared on the other side.

Some people were still looking at each other, whispering what was going on.

And it was at this time that a surprise shout suddenly came from the projector: "It's over!" ”

"What's upside down?" People looked back in bewilderment.

"It's overturned!" It was one of the Drafters who was shouting, and he stood up with a look of surprise and shouted to everyone: "Look at the Continental League, Kapka's team has turned the tables!" ”

And messages are being transmitted from network to network, reaching places that ordinary people can't reach.

Let's say, a synchronous orbit tens of thousands of kilometers above the ground.

Star Gate Harbor 'Ring of Ulopolos'

"Take Part 091."

"Stargate Port"

Residency of the Chinese Delegation.

The slide door opened, and Ambassador Liao pushed the door in with a serious expression, throwing the information and documents in his hand onto the metal table with a soft snap. Raise the heads of all those who are working with their heads down.

"Let's pause what we're doing, and tell everyone to come here, and we'll have an emergency meeting." The ambassador spoke to everyone succinctly.

"What's wrong?" Someone asked.

"The target has appeared." The ambassador replied.

"Target?"

"In El Pahin, it has been confirmed, in the continental league, although I don't know how it got in. The first to discover the target was the person from the Stargate Special Reserve, Zhang Tianmu's source was on Earth, and someone should have recognized the target in the game. ”

Ambassador Liao clarified the logic in just a few words.

And it was at this time that the slide door opened again, and an intelligence officer walked in and said to him: "Mr. Ambassador, here's a report you'd better take a look at." ”

The ambassador turned his head, took the report, glanced at it, and raised his eyebrows. "What's going on?"

"It's not clear, but there are indications that the American, Russian, and French Stargate special reserves are all moving to the Cloud Sea region."

"When?"

"About half an hour ago."

"These people are quick to move," said someone at once, "Shall we also get the people out first, and then come to the meeting?" ”

But Ambassador Liao shook his head: "It's not that simple. ”

He looked at everyone and said word by word: "The other news we have at the moment is that on the playing field, the target may have demonstrated the ability to multi-point control"

There was a slight silence in the room.

"What's going on?" The man was a little stunned.

Ambassador Liao looked serious. "We won't jump to conclusions until we have a conclusion, but maybe we'll have to meet the staff member again, what's his name, where is he?"

"That person's name is Huang Bingkun, he is forty-eight years old this year, a staff member of the Xingmen District, and he may be going back to Earth today to undergo a military investigation."

"Find a way to postpone the process and get someone to get him." Da immediately spoke.

"Wait a minute," the intelligence officer from before had just taken down his communication equipment, and he looked at everyone and said, "I just received the news that the Flor Descendants have also begun to move, and the Holy Serpent of the Jeffrey Redcoats has gone out to the area of the Gap of Aihchenpal. The spear of the silver forest has not reacted yet."

Ambassador Liao frowned slightly: "Jeffrey Redcoats, what are they doing here?" ”

……
