Chapter 39: A Hundred Years of Plague
In the end, the trial ended in a hurry.
Although under the persecution of the scarred man, these students who had not yet participated in the trial were forced to enter the metal cage one by one to participate in the trial, but they had already been frightened and could not exert their usual strength at all, and few people passed the trial.
Teacher Qiao Chau was very helpless about this, this was the least number of people who had passed the trial he had ever led, but there was no way, he was frightened by the corpse puppet of the Awakened Bloodline Talent, and it was natural that this situation would occur.
Sean left the trial prison in the same way as the others, but he had already made up his mind to investigate more about the corpse puppet.
Whether it's for the safety of one's own life, or for the sake of getting the bloodline talent, this is very necessary.
At the same time, he also wants to find an opportunity to contact the Awakened Bloodline Talent Corpse Puppet, although it is not certain that touching the Awakened Bloodline Talent Corpse Puppet can copy the corresponding Bloodline Talent, but there is no doubt that it is worth trying.
Although there are also people in the human race who have the talent of awakening bloodline, there are too few of them, and even he has never heard of them, obviously this probability is small and pitiful.
In the next few days, whenever he had free time, he would go to the library of the Neo Knight Academy to check out the books.
This is a large library, covering an area of thousands of square meters, there are many bookshelves, the shelves are full of leather books, although it cannot be compared with those large libraries in the previous life, but considering the degree of civilization in this era, it is already very good to have such a library.
However, he also found that there were very few people who would come to this library, and for a few days, he only saw a few people like him who came to the library to read books, and all of them were female students, and he was the only male student.
The "plague" a hundred years ago caused the death of two-thirds of the world's population, and in turn became the natural enemy of human beings - corpse puppets, and they are still looking down on the living space of human beings.
The countermeasure taken by the high-level of the kingdom is to make every effort to cultivate knights who can fight against corpse puppets, but they despise cultural inheritance, since they are not valued by the kingdom, naturally few knight academy students come to this kind of place, unless it is because of personal interest.
For example, the original Sean, who has been in the Neo Knight Academy for three years, has never set foot here, and it can be said that all his thoughts are on cultivation, although not everyone else is like the original Sean, but even if he has free time, where can he not have fun? Why go to a place like the library to read these dull books?
In the past few days of searching, Sean has a lot of understanding about the corpse puppet and even the plague that swept the human world a hundred years ago.
The first is about the wizards who spread the unprecedented plague.
The wizard race, a different race from humans, they have pointed ears, triangular faces, and a pair of green eyes, and from the perspective of human aesthetics, they can be regarded as absolutely penetrating.
However, this is a very powerful and terrifying race, and in terms of the average strength of the race, it can be said that it is far superior to humans.
Although not everyone has wizard qualifications, the probability of individuals with wizard qualifications is extremely high, far exceeding the probability of having knight qualifications among humans, but fortunately, their number is far less than that of humans, so humans were not finally defeated by them.
And the plague a hundred years ago was the top powerhouse of the wizard clan, the king of wizards. Saint. Raphael, feeling the sheer number of human beings and wanting to eliminate the gap with human numbers, developed the horror voodoo.
And this voodoo also wiped out two-thirds of humanity as he expected, and not only that, but the exterminated "people" turned into corpse puppets and became enemies of humanity.
Although the human race eventually reacted and repelled the corpse puppets, it also lost most of the territory, and now the human territory is less than half of the original territory.
In the following time, humans began to try to counterattack to regain the territory occupied by the corpse puppets, but they were horrified to find that the strength of those corpse puppets was not static, and as time went on, more powerful individuals appeared among them, coupled with the obstruction of the wizard clan, so even after a hundred years, humans still failed to regain the lost territory, but were in danger of being eaten by stronger and stronger corpse puppets.
And he also had a general understanding of what he wanted to know most about the bloodline talent.
Bloodline talent, a magical and weird mysterious power, it may exist in any living being, whether it is a human or an animal, it is possible to have bloodline talent, but most of the individual's talent is hidden deep in the body, and it is likely that it will not awaken for a lifetime.
Just like human beings, as the largest number of intelligent races, there should be a lot of people with bloodline talents, but in fact, there are very few people with bloodline talents, the reason is that the probability of awakening is too low, so many people who obviously have bloodline talents have never awakened in their lives.
The reason why the corpse puppet awakens is much higher than that of humans, and some top powerhouses speculate that it is because of voodoo.
The most important condition for awakening is the stimulus, and awakening can only occur if it is stimulated strongly enough, and this stimulus can be external or internal.
For example, the corpse puppets are stimulated by the voodoo in their own bodies and the probability of awakening is greatly increased, obviously, although voodoo destroys their reason and turns them into monsters with only bloodthirsty thoughts, it also gives them a strong stimulus, and finally leads to the awakening of bloodline talent greatly increased.
At the same time, Sean also learned that the basis of the bloodline talent is his own physical fitness, that is, the bloodline talent is based on his own physical fitness, and it plays a role.
To take a simple example, if an ordinary person has a talent for strength, his strength may reach a level comparable to Sean's now, and if this talent of strength appears in Sean's body, then Sean may use this talent of strength to make his strength reach the level of a trainee knight.
Obviously, Sean's strength growth is obviously higher than that of ordinary people, and the reason is that Sean's basic strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people.
The rest of the time, Sean didn't go to the library again.
He had already learned that as for the deeper secrets, they could not be found in the Neo Knight Academy, and it was obvious that it was the academy or the royal family that hid this aspect.
The truth is often in the hands of a few, in any world, in previous lives, and in this world, both because of the intellectual and partly because of the deliberate blockade of the ruling class.
For these, he doesn't care, this world is more direct than the previous life, the strong have the right to kill and kill, and they have everything, as long as the strength is reached, any secret will open the door to you, the reason why I don't know is just because the strength is not enough.
Just like the bloodline talent, this kind of thing must not be known to ordinary people, but as people who walk on the road of knighthood, Sean and other students have the right to know, because they are no longer ordinary people, from the time they embarked on the road of knighthood, it was like this.
As for the ability to replicate and backup the talent net to be restored again, Sean decided not to use it for the time being after thinking about it for a long time.
Although he wanted to copy, he could still find some good talents to copy, such as Benjamin, a swordsmanship genius from Ziyun Knight Academy. On Baker's body, in addition to the high-level swordsmanship talent on the other party, there are several good mid-level talents, which are barely qualified to copy.
But even if it is copied, it will not help him much now.
His practice of knighthood is swordsmanship, and he has not mastered other types of knightly methods, and even if he has mastered it, there is no corresponding knighthood method cultivation, and in the end it is just a decoration.
It's better to leave the replication and backup capabilities for when they are useful, in case you meet someone with top talent but don't have the replication and backup capabilities, then you will regret it.
