Chapter 724 of the Hundred Books House
Just like a game of Go, battles between masters are often unpredictable......
Often the weaker side feels that their attack is deadly, but the stronger side can neutralize it lightly!
Speaking of which, this is still a gap between the two sides in terms of the overall situation......
The stronger the strength, the stronger the overall situation, and the ability to perceive the intentions of others......
What seems flawless to ordinary people is not perfect for them......
For a fifth-tier intermediate player, this assassin raid was deadly enough......
But for a mage with sixth-order strength, this kind of Cheng dΓΉ's attack was insignificant......
Just as the black shadow was about to approach the mage, more than a dozen slender and sharp icicles instantly rose from the ground!
If the previous raid was perfect, then the timing of this icicle made the previous qiΔ perfection a joke......
Seeing the icicle appear, the black shadow's reaction was not slow, and he chose to retreat almost immediately!
At the same time, one after another icicles appear from the feet of the black shadow!
Under the continuous persecution of one after another icicles, the black shadow was forced to retreat with the wolf, and after five consecutive attacks, the black shadow was directly forced to retreat to the position close to the big tree, and until this moment, the attacking icicle did not make the next round of attacks!
Icicle didn't choose to continue the pursuit, and the Black Shadow was finally able to breathe......
As the high-speed attack stopped, the black shadow finally showed its own face......
It was a young man dressed in black with a blank face......
I don't know when black became the representative of the assassins, black night, black clothes, black weapons......
The Assassins' qiΔ seemed to be black, they hid deep in the darkness, they lurked like shadows......
"You're no match for me. (If you like this book, please collect it biquge.info) "It was only at this time that the mage turned around slowly, "Chasing here, this game is almost over......"
"Don't you want to ask why I'm bringing you here?" Seeing the gentle smile on the mage's face, the man raised his eyebrows and asked lightly.
"Why?" With his usual smile, withering Monogatari tilted his head slightly, making a thoughtful appearance, "Speaking of which, I've been thinking about this question before......
"Didn't you already tell me why, because this is my home turf." There was a strange smile on the corner of the man's mouth, but his heart was filled with joy because of the impending success......
The man's name was Romy, and he was known as the Twin-Tailed Scorpion within the Situ family......
Although he only has the strength of the fourth-order peak, he is also one of the closest to the realm level powerhouses among the younger generation within the Situ family, and after entering the Illusory World, he has always been under the jurisdiction of Situ Hao......
However, despite being an Awakened One, Romi did not enter an elite warband or become the leader of an ordinary warband like some other Awakened Ones, but still maintained his identity as a shower......
Shadow Guard!
Within the Situ family, there are three types of guards, the first of which is called the black guard, this type of guard, each individual is actually a domain-level humanoid weapon that uses Gu poison control, not only powerful, but also not afraid of death, however, although each black guard has the strength of the fifth order, and is proficient in various combined attack techniques, but in fact, these black guards in one-on-one combat, if they do not have a command, they can't even defeat those who have A-level awakened......
The reason is very simple, although these black guards have domain-level power, but in fact, they only have a strengthened field that simply improves their strength and speed, and the increase value is also very low, purely in terms of the domain, it can only be regarded as an inferior product, and not only that, due to the erosion of Gu poison, the intelligence of the black guard declines extremely quickly, and when fighting, they only have the instinct of a beast, if they want to divide into a combined attack, they must be guided by the controller, in the case of no one controlling, the black guard only acts on instinct, Without the slightest combat intelligence......
Not only that, compared to the lifespan of the domain-level powerhouse, although the black guard has the ability to launch the domain, but the life is often only about ten years, in fact, the black guard itself is actually the dead, the reason why they can continue to fight is mainly due to a parasitic black Gu that can manipulate corpses to fight, and this ten years of time is actually not the lifespan of a human being, but the lifespan of that kind of black Gu!
And the meaning of Heiwei Cun zΓ i is to use the little life and power that he has extended out to completely and completely contribute to the Situ family......
It can be said that although the strength of the black guard is not weak, it is actually the lowest status in the Situ family, and in some missions, even the lowest-level C-level or B-level awakened person can temporarily obtain the command of several black guards to help them complete the task......
Above the Blackguard, the other two Guards have very different statuses......
The first of them is the shadow guard!
Different from the black guard, every shadow guard is a real A-level peak awakener, within the Situ family, the shadow guard is directly under the orders of the Situ family, and being able to enter the shadow guard can be said to be something that most of the awakened people belonging to the Situ family look forward to......
The number of shadow guards is small, but each one must have a strong fighting talent, and only if they have the potential to advance to the domain level, they will be absorbed into this team, in addition to being responsible for some things inside and outside the family, the shadow guard also needs to perform many extremely difficult tasks......
The awakened people who can be selected for the shadow guard, each of them is the elite of the elite......
In fact, the growth of the awakened is a process of rebellion to a large extent......
In the process of going against the sky, the most significant point is that if you don't advance, you will retreat......
Each increase in the strength of the Awakened can bring extra life to the Awakened itself, and through these extra lifespans, the Awakened can continue to improve themselves to gain longer lives......
Sounds like a wonderful thing......
However, in this process, not every awakened person can grow up smoothly......
The reason is very simple, although each level of the Awakened person's previous advancement can extend their life, but in the same way, the time spent on each level of advancement will often increase exponentially......
And if you want to leave enough time for yourself to cultivate and impact a higher level, then you must enter a relatively higher level in the shortest possible time......
For those ordinary awakened people who don't have any cultivation paths, even if they discover their abilities, they may still be just an uninitiated awakened person for the rest of their lives......
For the Awakened, the cultivation environment, the cultivation method, and the talent for cultivation are all indispensable......
And this is also one of the most typical representatives of potential......
A person with potential does not mean that he is strong now, but it does mean that he has the possibility of becoming stronger......
And the Situ family cultivated is such a person!
In fact, everyone who enters the shadow guard must be an awakened person who has A-level strength within the age of twenty-five, and only with such a talent can they have the possibility of impacting the domain level!
From a certain point of view, after entering the A-level, the awakened can be regarded as stepping into the huge world of the awakened, it can be said that from the beginning of the awakened to the A-level, in fact, it is just a simple accumulation of power, the so-called bottleneck, in fact, is only a number of jΓΉ to divide the existence zΓ i, although the awakened themselves can have an obvious feeling when crossing the bottleneck, but this feeling is often not particularly significant, and the threshold of the A-level awakened is a real moat!
Being able to reach the A level, from a certain level, means that the awakened person has completely crossed the boundary of mortals and has become an authentic "non-human", no matter what kind of awakened ability, as long as it reaches the A level, it will have a qualitative effect......
Basically, if the awakened people below the A level still have some ordinary people's characteristics, and can be killed under certain conditions, then the probability of being killed by ordinary people is already very low when they reach the A level awakeners, and at this stage, even the awakened people who are not strengthened will have the vitality and combat power far beyond ordinary people, even if they are awakened by the spirit system, if they simply compare their strength, they are far more powerful than the so-called strong men among ordinary people, and the reason why they are not muscular, It's not that they're not strong enough, it's that their bodies are too powerful!
Just like a hot water bottle, if you fill it with water, as long as there is enough water, then the hot water bottle will bulge, and as long as the strength is exercised to the extreme, the muscles of the whole body will bulge, which is the most typical expression of power infusion into the whole body......
If the water is used to refer to power, then the hot water bottle represented by the body of the awakened person is more than ten times more than that of ordinary people, which is why even if their strength is far greater than that of ordinary people, it still does not reach the point where it can make the hot water bottle bulge......
In fact, not only the Awakened, but also among the Warriors......
For those who practice martial arts, after practicing a certain distance, their temples will bulge slightly, and the muscles of the whole body will also be exercised......
But with the passage of time, when the strength of the warrior is higher, the body will gradually change, gradually return to its original state, and the muscles will disappear......
It can be said that every time the rank is raised, what is improved is the body's ability to accommodate strength......
The existence of the bottleneck is actually because the strength has reached the limit of a stage, and it is difficult to improve the relationship again, and only when the bottleneck is broken through and the rank rises, the strength can be further improved......
In the first few stages, from the initial awakening to the entry to become D-level, from D-level to C-level, from C-level to B-level, in these stages, the resistance brought by the bottleneck is not strong, so some awakened people with excellent talent have almost no feeling in these stages, especially in the first one or two bottlenecks......
However, the change from B to A is a world of difference!
It can be said that this is a threshold that all awakened people can clearly feel!
If you cross it, you can become a real powerhouse, at least have a place in the world of the awakened......
It can be said that the awakened before and after A-level are completely a process of quantitative change to qualitative change!
Taking the control element as an example, the fire controller who has just awakened without any bloodline inheritance can only control the small flames on the match or candle to beat at best, and when he reaches the minimum standard D level of the awakened, this awakened person can shuttle through the fire at will, so that he is not burned by the flames, and at the same time, he can generate faint small flames at his fingertips, and there is no problem in performing escape magic, but if he wants to fight, it seems to be relatively reluctant......
After reaching the C level further, the awakened person can initially control the power of the flame, and even create a flame without a flame to achieve the effect of creating something out of nothing, but even so, the flame that a fire controller who has reached this level can create is only the size of a fist, and the power is quite weak......
After reaching the B level, the power of the fire controller is further strengthened, and the flame can be controlled in the air within a certain distance, but whether it is the distance of control or the amount of flame that can be controlled, it is relatively limited, after reaching this point, the awakened person already has a not weak combat power, not to mention that the ability to control the flame falls in the eyes of ordinary people, it is already a symbol like a god, and after having this level of strength, among ordinary people, it is more than enough to form a cult organization such as the Vulcan Cultβ¦β¦
However, even if they reach the B level, for the awakened, they only have a longer life and a stronger physique than the ordinary, although their strength is stronger than ordinary people, but they can't be used at will, even if they have far surpassed ordinary people, but if they face hordes of armed forces, their strength is not enough to protect their lives......
In fact, among some of the awakened people who have reached B with their own talents, there are many people who think they are invincible in the world after they have power, and then they get carried away, they use their power unscrupulously, and the final result is naturally needless to say, in fact, some people may be able to escape the search of the public security organs, but in the face of a stronger army, it is often difficult to escape the fate of death or capture in the end......
Not to mention the right or wrong behavior of the awakened, in fact, there is no right or wrong in many things in this world, so must the law be just? Is order necessarily harmonious?
Anyone with a little experience will know that this is not the case, and among those awakened who use power, not all of them are criminals, and there are also a large number of people who have been treated unjustly and used their power to resist......
In fact, not only the awakened, but also ordinary people, there are also people who violently resist because of oppression, and even kill more than a dozen people. There are no advertisements in the whole text of Baishuwu
However, most of those who choose to rebel do not end up well......
In the end, it is only a matter of position......
Just like slaves and slave owners, for slave owners, it is a matter of course for slaves to obey themselves, and any behavior and thought against their will is intolerable, should be transformed, and should be killed!
And for slaves, it is also a matter of course to rebel against the rule of others and set themselves free, no one is born willing to be a slave, and no one is born willing to be ruled......
From this point of view, there is nothing inherently wrong with both law enforcement and oppressed law enforcers for the purpose of maintaining law and order......
The only difference is just the gain and loss of life and death!
Any one thing, from any angle, will feel different, but one thing is the same......
To give a very simple example, a woman went to repair a car, but was rubbed by the car repairer, so she pulled the other party to ask for compensation, but the other party couldn't give it, so she called her parents to beat the car repairman together, asked the other party to kneel, and asked the other party to pay money......
In the end, the mechanic was humiliated and angrily took out a wrench and killed the three people......
The process is simple, and the story is simple......
So who's right and who's wrong in this matter?
The answer may be varied, but one thing is certain, the woman must be wrong, and not only wrong, but also by the way......
Why, because she died......
When a person dies, it is the biggest loss, so she was wrong......
When doing anything, in fact, in the final analysis, what we need to do is to earn benefits for ourselves as much as possible, and if losses are unavoidable, reduce losses as much as possible......
From this point of view, as a woman, it is a very stupid act to offend a powerful car repair worker and humiliate the other party because of a small thing that cannot be smaller......
On the other hand, the car mechanic also did something wrong......
Because he will also be arrested afterwards, and the death penalty is also very likely......
He also suffered much more losses than expected......
He could lose his freedom and, more likely, his life......
However, compared to the other party, his behavior is right, because, compared to the other party, he is at least alive for now......
However, if he could find a better way to solve the problem afterwards, maybe the situation would be more favorable for him......
In fact, this world is like this, and contradictions exist all the time in every corner of this world......
The same is true for the awakened, there are not many awakened people below the B level who commit crimes, some because they can't satisfy their inner **, some because of the ambition generated by the expansion of power, and some are like the car repair workers, who have been unjustly oppressed, and most of them were eventually hunted down to death by the public security or the army......
In fact, there is nothing wrong with these awakened people themselves, whether it is ambition or not, everyone will have these things to a greater or lesser extent, ambition and** is one of the driving forces for human progress, most people will have it, so it is not a mistake, and the resistance after being oppressed is also a natural thing for the awakened who have superhuman strength......
However, their only mistake is to overestimate their own strength!
Overestimating their abilities is their most fatal mistake!
They mistakenly believe that they are far above ordinary people in power enough to have bargaining chips with the government, so they are unscrupulous, but in reality, their power is not enough......
It's like going to recruit and apply......
If the candidate makes any mistakes during the application process, then even if the candidate tries to remedy it, the candidate is estimated to be tragic, and conversely, if the recruiter makes any mistakes in the application process and the candidate finds out, then the tragedy is also the candidate......
This is one of the most typical portrayals of the relationship between superiors and subordinates -- when superiors make mistakes, it is the subordinates who are unlucky, and when the subordinates make mistakes, the unlucky ones are also subordinates......
And this point, implemented in many articles, is five words - the right of final interpretation.
When a person is called a saint, then his words and deeds are considered correct, his words are enshrined as truth, his actions will be emulated from generation to generation, and his ideas, his thoughts, will continue to be passed on to future generations......
It can be said that when a person becomes a saint, his every word and deed, every action will be recognized as correct, and the so-called words and deeds are the same......
And the same is true of the Awakened, when the power of the Awakened is strong, then he is often right......
In fact, there are not a few awakened people who have killed people in this world, but why do some of them become the targets of hunting and wanting, while others can become the guests of the powerful?
The fundamental difference is strength!
And the A-level is the most obvious watershed in the strength of the awakened!
Still taking the fire controller as an example, after reaching the A level, the flame of the fire controller can be spread all over the body in an instant, and ordinary metal bullets will be instantly melted by the high temperature when they are close to the body of the awakened......
Actually, this kind of thing has been like this since ancient times......
Whether it is a bandit or a rebel army, if the strength is not strong enough, what awaits them is often the pursuit and encirclement of officers and soldiers, on the contrary, if their strength is strong enough, what awaits them is often high-ranking officials, and they can even sit on an equal footing with the emperor and share the country......
A small thief who steals a hook can be put to death, and any landlord with a little money can shout and kill the thief......
However, for the thieves who steal the country, even the powerful people are helpless, and they can only watch with envy, jealousy and hatred......
It's the same plagiarism, but the result is very different......
At the end of the day, it's just that the thieves are different......
is also the kung fu of sliding doors and picking locks, those who don't work hard in their hands are basically playing soy sauce in the detention center, and those who have deep kung fu in their hands, even if they are police uncles, have to eat and drink well to find help solve some problems......
For petty criminals, the state is generally more severe, but for those who commit big crimes, the state can generally only focus on the policy of gentleness, and some criminals who are enough to die hundreds of times often do not die in the end......
The same goes for the Awakened, the strength possessed by the A-level Awakened is enough for them to have a high status......
Moreover, the existence of this status is absolute......
Just like many places abroad, some second- and third-rate university diplomas in China are not recognized, on the contrary, foreign university diplomas are generally sought after in China......
Whether a qualification is recognized or not, after all, is decided by the relevant unit, just like the comment on singing, after all, it is still evaluated by people, and if you think you sing well, others will not necessarily recognize it......
Just like the Olympic Games, events such as gymnastics and diving, in essence, no matter how the athlete behaves, it is still a referee's game, and whether the referee is fair or not, this is a difficult thing to judge, so often the referees can not shy away from making some small moves in the competition......
It can be said that any kind of competition that is scored by people is not absolutely fair in itself!
However, no one can question this, because the mouth is in the referee's mouth and the microphone is in the hands of the organizing committee......
It can be said that this kind of competition is a very unfair thing for athletes......
However, also in the Olympic Games, the results of some events are often absolute......
For example, high jump, long jump, track and field, swimming......
There is no such thing as a score for this type of item......
Fast is fast, high is high, strong is strong......
No one can question the performance of athletes, and compared to those events that require scoring, the achievement of this type of event is absolute, if you are fast enough, you can set a record that no one has surpassed under the zΓ o, and no one can change the result in a few words!
And the strength of the awakened is the same, their status is not obtained because of the system or order, but because they are strong, their strength is absolute, and it will not change because of changes in the environment and order, so their status is also absolute......
That's why there is a large part of the Awakened who are believers in absolute power, and they don't deliberately pursue wealth and status, because they know very well that as long as their power reaches a certain level, they will naturally have these things, and they will have them easily......
However, in fact, when the Awakened reach the A level, they often dismiss the wealth and power that ordinary people have at their fingertips......
This kind of change is imperceptible, when a person is accustomed to their own strong power, they often don't care about other things, all the things that can be obtained with violence, for them are to be asked for, that is, for this reason, they don't need to put these things on their bodies, they just need to take them when they need to......
For ordinary people, wealth and status are like caged birds, as long as the cage is opened, it can never be recovered......
But for the Awoken, the sky is also their hunting range, and even if the birds are out of their cages, they are still within their reach......
For this part of the awakened people, they all believe that as long as they are strong enough, then they are omnipotent......
The same goes for Romy.
In fact, as an Awakened One, absolute power is Romy's only faith......
He never thought about the superfluous things, but kept honing his assassination skills like an extremely self-disciplined cultist......
For him, the Phantom World is a new stage, and every thing here makes him feel novel......
In the Situ family, the number of shadow guards is not much, only fifty people, and among these fifty people, each of them is an A-level awakened person with outstanding ability, once they enter the shadow guard, they will get the best cultivation and maximum cultivation resources of the Situ family, but with the same choice, the shadow guards will also take on some of the most difficult tasks......
In fact, this incomparably elite team of awakened people will be eliminated at least five in the execution of tasks every month, and these people are either seriously injured in the mission that cannot be recovered, or they die directly in the task, this is not that these shadow guards are not strong enough, but the tasks assigned by the Situ family are always squeezing the potential of the task personnel, if the potential is not enough, and they cannot achieve the expected goal in the task, then they will be eliminated by the task naturally......
That's why since the formation of the Shadow Guard, there has never been the same fifty members for two consecutive months......
However, the Shadow Guard is also the only path that the Situ family can take to the realm-level awakened!
Even Situ Hao and the Four Dharma Kings, before they became realm masters, were all members of the Shadow Guard!
Among the shadow guards,,There is also its own ranking.,This ranking will change once a month.,The low ranking can be challenged to the high.,In addition to retreats,You have to refuse anyone's challenge.,Life and death in the challenge.,And those who get one or two places in the ranking game.,By default, become the head and deputy head of the shadow guard group......
Situ Hao, who is known as a genius, served as the head of the regiment for three years after entering the shadow guard!
This is not to say that his strength can only be the first place twelve times, but because he has only been in the Shadow Guard Regiment for less than three years, and he has soared from A-level 1 star to 7 stars in one go, and now he has quickly broken through the bottleneck and been promoted to become a field-level powerhouse!
Romi has the potential to be not weaker than Situ Hao, although he entered the shadow guard a year later than Situ Hao, but it only took a year, and he quickly defeated other opponents to become the second person in the shadow guard, and for the next year, he has been silently acting as Situ Hao's deputy......
After Situ Hao entered the domain level, he also deservedly became the new head of the shadow guard!
Then, the phantom world appeared......
As a place of trials that can maximize the strength of the awakened without worrying about accidental death, the Illusory World naturally received great attention and attention for the first time......
In fact, although the Situ family pursues the law of survival of the fittest, in many cases, this is not the original intention of the top management of the Situ family, and if conditions permit, they naturally do not want the elites they have trained to die in the training process......
The reason why there is a task with a high elimination rate is to cultivate powerful awakened people, just like their ancestors have done for generations, put the most powerful Gu poison in a vessel, let them bite each other, and finally get the most powerful one!
However, for them, although this method can cultivate the strongest talents, but in the same way, the loss is also huge, although they can bear such losses, but if there is a way to exercise the strength of the awakened at the same time, and at the same time not let them die, then it is undoubtedly a better choice......
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Bai whispered in front of a table, and in front of him was a stack of materials stacked very high......
Sitting across from him was a solemn woman in a colonel's uniform.
The colonel was not very old and looked very beautiful, but he didn't have a smile on his face, he just looked at the man in front of him expressionlessly and kept flipping through the information......
Bai Xiaosheng had been in this room for dozens of minutes, and his only task at the moment was to read the materials in front of him......
The information in front of him is not too top secret, of course, it is not too top secret, but relative to the information of the awakened, the information in front of Bai Xiaosheng is actually the equipment training and other information of various military regions, these materials are of little value to Bai Xiaosheng, but for spies in other countries, it is a good material......
At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng understood why the country would be interested in the virtual system of the phantom world......
In fact, even in the case of the use of various relatively safe weapons, military exercises can kill people, not only military exercises will kill people, but in daily training, there will actually be an indicator of disability......
In fact, the top brass of the military does not want this to happen, but this situation is very difficult to avoid, and what they learn is the skills of combat, and war itself is a matter of life and death, and many accidents cannot be avoided at all......
However, compared to the cruelty and ruthlessness of the Awakened family, the army is often more severe, because for a soldier, they all have their own families and parents, and a soldier's accidental death in the army, in exercises or training, will cause a great blow to the image of the army, even if the army can use violence when it is external, but in the face of ordinary people, in the face of a harmonious society, it is difficult for them to be truly cold-blooded and ruthless......
The existence of the illusory world has greatly improved this situation......
For the military, zero mortality and the death of a person are simply a thousand different changes, foolproof and one in ten thousand, which in itself is a big difference, the former represents absolute security, and the latter means that if you are not lucky enough, you may die......
In fact, this is also the reason why forces from all sides are eyeing the virtual system of the Phantom World......
