Chapter 123: The Tunguska Counterattack (4)
The fortress square has disappeared entirely.
In what was supposed to be the square, a large crater was blasted out of the ground, and the smell of burnt paste came from the bottom of the pit, which was extremely pungent.
An Jie stood on the edge of the pit and raised her eyebrows. "It's amazingly destructive."
The smoke from the explosion had not yet cleared, and An Jie could not see the details of the bottom of the pit now, but after such a long time of attacking, Rijie Cuojia should have been shattered by now
"Speaking of which, what kind of philosopher's stone won't break, right?"
"You don't have to worry about this, the Philosopher's Stone is between energy and entity, as long as it is not a high-intensity energy attack, it will not break......
The system froze for a moment.
"The Philosopher's Stone won't break?!!
An Jie covered her forehead and sighed helplessly. "When did you become natural? Don't set yourself up without permission. ”
After all, the lightning storm is definitely a high-intensity energy attack, and An Jie is skeptical about whether the Philosopher's Stone is still intact now.
But to the system's surprise, even though she knew that the magic stone that was key to strengthening might be damaged, An Jie still looked calm.
"Aren't you distressed? I probably won't be able to get stronger."
"What's so distressing about this, I'm already very strong."
An Jie said with a natural face.
The system is silent.
"If I can continue to get stronger, it will naturally be undesirable, but I can cope with everything next with my current strength, so there is nothing to be sorry for."
An Jie jumped down from the edge of the pit and said with a smile as she approached the bottom of the pit: "I said Lao Shi, do you know what the driving force of human progress is? ”
『………… What?'
"It's laziness! Lazy! ”
"Whether it is my original world or this world, all human inventions and creations are made so that they can enjoy laziness with peace of mind."
"Humans exploited farmland because hunting was unstable, wells were dug because it was troublesome to get water from streams, steam engines were invented because they were inefficient to make by hand, and telephones were created to reduce the distance between people who were separated from each other. In the same way, the musket was invented because it was more powerful than the bow and arrow, the rifle was invented because it was more powerful than the musket, the submachine gun was invented because it was more powerful than the rifle, and the assault rifle was invented because it was more powerful than the submachine gun. ”
An Jie concluded: "So the driving force of human progress is laziness, and of course I am the same. Admiral Lesa can let me run errands while he himself sits in the command room, and when I become a general in the future, I can let someone else run errands and sit in the command room by himself. ”
An Jie came to the bottom of the pit smoothly.
"There are many ways to become stronger, I don't need to dwell on my own strength, if I am not strong enough, I still have subordinates. If my subordinates are not strong enough, I still have comrades. If my comrades-in-arms are not strong enough, then I still have a boss. I'm not alone, I'm a soldier of the Empire, maybe you didn't pay attention, but I actually noticed it a long time ago...... I'm not without support. ”
"St. Doragon...... It's my reliance! So even if I lost this opportunity to strengthen now, I wouldn't be sorry. ”
She smiled lightly: "As the saying goes, often slack and win, long live laziness!" ”
"No Interest"
An Jie's feet were soft, so she couldn't hang her heels.
(Anjie, you............ )
"It's not productive."
"I don't need to say it twice!"
An Jie was a little annoyed and angry, but after yelling, she realized that something was wrong.
"Who's there?!"
"Don't be nervous, it's me."
The figure of Hamus slowly emerged from the fog. "I'm sorry, I was going to hide all the time, but when I heard what you said, I couldn't help but stand up."
She looked at An Jie with a smile and said to her, "You know? Little girl, you're actually on my kill list because I think you're dangerous...... But now I don't think so. ”
She turned and headed towards the center of the sinkhole.
"I thought you were a cunning, insidious, and crazy wolf, but you told me you just wanted to be a family dog. My heart is now full of remorse, and I am extremely unhappy. ”
She carried An Jie on her back like this and waved her hand: "Little dog, go home and gnaw bones, the battlefield is not a place where a domestic dog like you can come." ”
An Jie's response to her words was a powerful beam.
The scorching air at the edge of the beam was a testament to how powerful it was.
But Hamus simply raised her hand, and the beam of light attacked the purple glowing hand, but it didn't bring a single wave.
"I told you, right?"
Hamusi's slitted eyes opened a slit, and her ruthless pupils looked at An Jie opposite.
"It's time for you to go home and eat."
The palm blocking the beam attack snapped its fingers.
"Dragon Vein Liberation."
A low sound sounded from the depths of the earth, and An Jie's heart was alarmed!
"Boom!"
The ground is tumbling violently! It was as if there was an earth dragon churning underneath, and dark purple light erupted from the cracks in the rocks, staining An Jie's hands.
"Hiss ............"
There was a scorching hissing sound from the hand that was splashed! An Jie's face twitched, and she forcibly held back the screams that came to her mouth.
Seeing this, Hamus turned her body around again.
"Did you fly into the sky, do you think I can't help you if you can fly?"
The earth surged like living creatures, and rocks rolled at her feet.
"I'm kind enough to let you go, don't give up this rare chance to escape, little girl."
An Jie endured the pain, and yelled at her with a hideous face: "It's not certain who will kill the deer!" ”
"No, victory was on my side at the beginning."
Hamus smiled lowly.
"Let me guess, little girl, your epaulettes show that you are a sergeant, not to mention a sergeant at your age, it is difficult to even enter the army! But your strength is very peculiar, and if I were your boss, I would never let go of such a good seedling. ”
She raised her head, and although her gaze was looking up at An Jie, that look made An Jie feel like she was looking down on her.
"However, because of this, your career must be smooth sailing! Being young but frequently promoted probably gives you the illusion that 'I can climb up easily', so much so that you actually say things like "long live laziness" and "long live laziness............"
"Let me tell you, little one who doesn't know how thick the sky is. The world is indeed unfair, and it often favors one over the other. But the world is often the most just! Because its preference is only given to those who are prepared! ”
"Do you know how much I've paid to climb up?! I killed my teacher because he didn't recommend my doctor, and I killed my sister because she didn't plan to compete with me! In terms of determination and diligence alone, we are not at the same level at all, but you tell me - how can I lose?! ”
"How could I, Dr. Gregory's alchemy, Hamus Summit, lose to a little imp like you?!!"
