Chapter 105: Illuminate every dark place
The moment the shape of the mountain was illuminated by the firelight, the searchlights on the ground and other high-rise buildings were also concentrated. For a moment, the view of the platform was as bright as day.
Countless weapons were aimed at him.
This also includes a number of counter-materiel weapons. Judging from the density of the shelterer troops in this area and the number of long-range snipers, I am afraid that this chivalrous man who dares to show his head will become a pair of iron filings in the next second.
"Aim!" The adjutant roared, "Launch me!" β
But......
Nothing happened.
In this moment...... No, it should have been a few seconds before a higher authority that directly deprived the entire unit of the right to fire.
The avatar of the paladin Assyria appeared in front of numerous officers.
"Are you crazy?" He roared, "Attacking my Knights' Garrison with short-range missiles and counter-materiel weapons? That's near the load-bearing frame! That floor is still the core of the experimental area! β
The load-bearing frame of the super building can evenly distribute the weight of the entire building, spreading it to every inch of material as much as possible, avoiding excessive stress on any single part.
However, if there is a problem with the overall structure, then the "dispersion of forces" may not be carried out. The massive force of gravity eventually concentrates on a small area, causing the destruction of the material. Then, there's the cascading effect.
And the sniping of these armed forces, even if they avoid the load-bearing frame, may damage the intelligent equipment, precious materials, and even the experimental subjects that provide data in the experimental area.
This is something that His Holiness cannot tolerate.
"But......" argued the adjutant, "His Excellency Bengel is still there. β
"But you must not use weapons larger than 20mm, and you are not allowed to use high-explosive ordnance. Laser weapons, EMP, and metal aerosols are all banned! Paladin Assyria said, "Don't damage the things in the core test area!" β
He knew that knights rarely targeted these things.
Wu Zu and other pioneers of rivers and lakes are also scientific research knights. Most knights are not opposed to technological development. There will even be some knights who publish their papers on the blockchain. [It's just that limited by experimental conditions, most of the knights can only conduct pure theoretical or pure application research]
That chivalrous man will only take some people's lives.
"Kinetic bullets under 20mm caliber?" The adjutant felt like he was going crazy: "Are you crazy?" The knight easily cornered His Excellency Bengel. His martial arts are definitely not low. We were more than 2,500 meters away from the 740-story platform. At this distance, the knight could even slowly split the bullet with his sword! β
It is true that the extreme distance of sniping with modern weapons has been greatly increased compared to the past, but the ability of people to evade has also been greatly enhanced.
The distance of about 3,000 meters is one of the most unfavorable distances for a warrior.
"Then it was time for him to die for the truth."
Assyria, the head of the Mana Knights, decided the fate of the deputy head of the Pine Eagle City garrison with such a sentence.
The adjutant did not argue again. The reason why he wants to save Bengel is just his duty. Since the Assyrian commander was willing to take on this responsibility for the sake of the truth, he naturally did not need to do more.
You know, do more and make more mistakes.
"Bengel, it's time for you to give your life for the truth."
Eventually, Bengel received such a communication.
Bengel was speechless.
At this time, the first wave of bullets has already arrived.
However, the guy walked steadily forward, and with the sheathed sword, he danced a sword flower and pushed away several bullets that could not be dodged.
He walked smoothly like this.
Bengel knows that there is a special classification of martial arts, which is called "stage martial arts".
Although for most laymen, all martial arts that are not designed for the purpose of "beating people" are not called martial arts, but such martial arts do exist in the world.
There are also many sub-categories within the stage martial arts. For example, the "stage swordsmanship" that accompanies opera, or the "martial arts" that undertakes martial arts in opera, or even the "action design" in kung fu movies, are all a type of stage martial arts.
Of course, this is not to say that stage martial arts are not meaningful in actual combat at all. In fact, stage martial arts can be regarded as a "relict species" of martial arts.
Since there is no need to consider the "actual combat effect", the ancient routines that have been eliminated in the martial arts world can be found in the stage martial arts.
In Europe and Japan, "stage swordsmanship" is a variant of "ancient swordsmanship" and "ancient score".
The swordsmanship of Peking Opera Wuxing is also a "standard routine" from "Dancing Knife", one of the "technical bravery" projects of the Later Jin Wuju.
Practitioners of stage martial arts will trace the "history" of each move and style very carefully, and add many special movements with "expressiveness" on the basis of "standards".
For example, the throwing and catching action that focuses on the presence of the weapon, the large turn and turn, the obvious knife and gun sparkle, the longer path slash with higher density, and the "rhythm" that deliberately pauses in the "keyframe" to allow the audience to better appreciate the action.
In the era of natural people, the physical fitness of stage martial arts practitioners is not much worse than that of practitioners of combat martial arts at the same time. [Of course, exaggerated movements are objectively more likely to cause sports injuries] However, it is indeed almost impossible to defeat a martial artist head-on in stage martial arts.
There is no need to consider the displacement of footwork when performing martial arts, there is no need to consider the "confrontation routine", and the training of resistance is completely abandoned......
And what these get in exchange is the ultimate "expressiveness".
This kind of power that can firmly grasp everyone's attention in an instant.
Able to turn "action" into efficient language, shape the image of the character, and convey the emotions of the character.
Assassination does not require stage martial arts, but "the assassination of chivalry" needs the embellishment of stage martial arts.
Therefore, the "assassination of chivalrous men" is a war against tyranny and a propaganda war.
In a place where all eyes are watched, in a way that is so dazzling that it is bound to be passed on, kill the most heinous people.
In this way, your ideas will be passed down among the people along with these legendary stories.
It's just that "using stage martial arts to kill" is equivalent to increasing the difficulty of assassination out of thin air. This would contradict the credo of "cherishing life". Therefore, it is rare for chivalry to execute opponents with stage martial arts.
But every time it happens, it will be passed on for a long time. That gorgeous video will inevitably become a source of turmoil on the Internet that is difficult to eradicate.
The most famous example of the old era is the chemical tycoon Youssef Saviris who was slashed by the Sato Khalifa by Wu Zu chanting "One Knife Meeting" and slashing with a Daguan knife on the Burj Khalifa.
"Hahaha...... Become a footnote to a legend...... Is this what happened to me? β
Bengel struggled to his feet: "Come on! Kill me! I'm a glorious knight of scientific research! For the sake of the truth, I have nothing to fear! β
At this point, the music enters an instrumental performance just before the climax of "The Way of Justice". Xiangshan stopped singing and turned to Bengel.
Bengel was sure that he had been hacked by the art of sighting. Almost at the same time, a new live page appeared.
The source of the picture is his prosthetic eye.
Xiang Shan maintained the posture of holding the middle of the scabbard with one hand behind his back and the middle of the scabbard in the other, and only occasionally danced a sword flower with the sheath long sword to push away the bullet - and this did not even affect the overall visual effect of the "performance", as if it should be the case in the choreography, and there should have been a sword flower dance here.
He said, "I will kill you, and it has nothing to do with the truth." Whether you are afraid or not has nothing to do with the truth. β
"The reason why human beings develop technology is because people have needs, and technology can help people live a better life. Human beings approach the truth on the one hand because it can be exploited by human beings in the form of technology, and on the other hand, because 'truth' can give human beings unparalleled spiritual comfort β in the final analysis, everything is for people, everything is in people. Man is the source of all reason, and human well-being is the end of all action. β
"So, we will oppose all forced sacrifices. We are against inducing others to sacrifice. We are against hiding any possible negative outcomes from volunteers, or deliberately telling them in a form they don't understand β because they, too, are human beings. To seek the well-being of man in a way that tramples on him is a great mistake of course. The conflict between means and ends will only make us farther and farther away from the end. β
"It's all about people."
Xiang Shan aimed his sheathed sword at Bengel.
At this moment, a powerful internal force suddenly poured out, sweeping away all obstacles.
Since there was no one to defend this area, Xiang Shan was able to get it in an instant.
All the searchlight tubes left the platform and moved up the building.
"For the sake of those whom you have sacrificed, I will slay you here."
Bengel screamed, "Is this just my sin!" I'm not even the leader of the experiment! My boss ......"
"Your commander, the paladin Assyria ray Guderian, has booked a place. I have memorized his name, and the death knell will ring for him. Raise your sword to the mountain: "Then, die." β
Bengel screamed and threw his fists and kicks in unison, making a final resistance. But Xiang Shan had already crushed his spirit, and his thoughts could no longer dominate the algorithm.
With just one move, Xiang Shan, who had the advantage of length, pushed Bengel high with his sword.
At this moment, the interlude ends.
"The Light ...... of the Right Path"
Roaring upwards, the sheath of the voice knife held high. Bengel, who was already on the edge of the platform, was trying to grab the edge of the platform, but could only watch as he saw the usual smash fall.
At the same time, the light of countless searchlights converges on the wall of the building directly below the platform, converging into a bright "road".
"Shine on the earth......"
Bengel danced and fell downward. Xiang Shan, on the other hand, lowered his sword and pointed to the sky at the same time, singing loudly: "Light up every dark place!" β
In this moment, it's not just the military.
In the city, there are countless people, either adjusting their prosthetic eyes, or with the help of treasured lenses, watching the deputy head of the knights fall in the light.
"Fire! Fire! The adjutant roared. This is just a provocation! Just provocation!
However, Xiang Shan was horizontal, and he also crossed the high platform.
His feet were under the walls of the building, and in just one step, he overtook the sound barrier.
"Openness is ...... light"
In mid-air, Xiang Shan borrowed strength from the wall of the building, and pulled the sound knife out of its scabbard with a twist.
"Like a man's chest......"
Towards the mountain accelerates twice. At this moment, he caught up with Bengel in free fall.
The phonon knife cut through Bengel's torso like a red-hot iron knife through lard.
"There's infinite strengthβso strong!"
At this moment, Xiang Shan jumped out of the end of the "long road" of lights and fell into darkness.
Countless weapons fired at the same time.
The last thing people saw was a fire falling in the darkness.
