Chapter 33: The January Covenant
A mixed smile slowly appeared on Taling's face, and he said very arrogantly: "That's right, I just want to trap your Force." Even if you knew, what would you do with me?"
Wang Xiaotian immediately reached out to grab it. Its figure flickered and disappeared, only the voice came from left to right, "You think I'm cheating you, but I'm actually helping you." Please, think with your elm head, what good will it do me if I trap you, and what will I gain by killing you?"
Wang Xiaotian said angrily: "Who knows what you think? Maybe you are harming others and not benefiting yourself, just to be happy in vain!"
Taryn: "I'm not as stupid as you! do you know how much time it took me to find you?"
Wang Xiaotian was stunned, "You...... Looking for me? Did I know you before?"
Taling: Of course...... I don't know. Do you think I'm the only one tower spirit? The Tower of Babel has tens of thousands of projections, and each projection can only have one tower spirit. And there are hundreds of reserve tower spirits in each projection, and I am only one of them. ”
"We have to go through 30 years of training, and we have to pass hundreds of demanding exams before we can have a chance to work. Note that so far, there has only been a chance to get on the job. ”
"Becoming an official tower spirit is the dream of every pre-tower spirit. But to become an official Taling, you have to wait a long time and have enough luck. Because all the members of the Preparatory Tower who have passed the assessment have to take turns on duty in the projection of the Tower of Babel that has not been summoned. ”
"Each duty lasts for ten years, and only during this ten years can the Tower of Babel projection be summoned and successfully descend to the plane where it is located, and the Reserve Tower Spirit can become an official Tower Spirit. ”
Wang Xiaotian was puzzled, "Wait." You said that there are tens of thousands of projections in the Tower of Babel, and there are hundreds of preparatory tower spirits in each projection, and each of you has a reserve tower spirit and waits for ten years in turn. Wouldn't it be a pitiful chance of becoming a Taling? one in a billion?"
Taling: "Not as little as you think. Still, it's not much. Although there are thousands of planes, not all of them can summon the Tower of Babel, let alone successfully descend. ”
Wang Xiaotian asked: "Then now, are you officially a tower spirit?"
Taling: "Of course not. I'm just a pre-Taling on the job, and I still have a long way to go before I become an official Taling. ”
Wang Xiaotian asked: "How can I officially become a tower spirit?"
Ta Ling (impatient): "Didn't you just say that you have to wait for the Tower of Babel to successfully descend to the plane where you are." ”
Wang Xiaotian was confused, "Is this state a successful advent now?"
Taling (justifiably): "Of course not. Only by lighting up all the towers of Babel can it be considered a successful arrival. Do the math yourself, how much is it missing?"
Wang Xiaotian was speechless. There are ninety percent of the Tower of Babel, and although it is getting thinner and thinner from the bottom to the top, the difficulty of lighting it is more difficult to light it layer by layer. He had no confidence in whether he would be able to light up all the towers in his lifetime.
But...... Wang Xiaotian came to his senses, "Even if the Tower of Babel succeeds in descending, what good will it do me if you become a real tower spirit? Don't fool me with these simulators or something." These are just icing on the cake for me, not to mention that these are all things that I have exchanged for the Force, and you have also pitted me a lot of the Force from it. ”
Ta Ling: "It's true that you don't get much benefit now, but once the Tower of Babel successfully descends, you will be able to use the Tower of Babel as a bridge to open up new worlds and become the lord of the plane! The whole new world is all yours! Isn't this a great benefit?"
Wang Xiaotian pouted and said, "Lord of the Plane? The entire Xintiandi is mine? What's the use of this? I'm not even a Force Master now, I'm a fart Lord of the Plane? Have you ever seen such a weak Lord of the Plane."
Don't fool me with those pies. You tell me honestly, what are the basic parameters, and how should I do it?"
Taling: "Either you force the Force and have the simulator automatically adjust to your environment, or you manually adjust it yourself every time." ”
Wang Xiaotian was furious again.
Taling: "It's useless for you to be angry. The Force is money to you, and no matter how much you save, it's just a number, and it's just a pleasure to look at, and if you don't use it, it's nothing. But for the Tower of Babel, the Force is power, and many functions cannot be used without power. ”
"For example, if you have a powerful tank, but if you don't refuel it, the tank won't be able to move and won't be able to kill you for you. The Tower of Babel is a tank. No, it's much more powerful than tanks and mechs. ”
"The Tower of Babel has completely descended, and it can move mountains and reclaim the sea, destroying the world. Now you can deal with the danger you encounter, so you feel that the Tower of Babel is useless. But what do you do when you encounter an irresistible danger, and it is called every day?"
"At that time, even if you could provide the Tower of Babel with more Force, it would not be able to upgrade the corresponding functions. ”
Ta Ling (earnest): "So, when the Force is surplus in normal times, download more useful modules for the Tower of Babel, so that it can be quickly upgraded." In this way, it can help you carry it when you encounter danger. ”
Wang Xiaotian was speechless by Ta Ling's words, and said helplessly for a long time: "What you said is so reasonable, I am speechless." But you're telling me exactly how much Force power is needed before I can use the Tower of Babel's features?"
Taling: "What are the features? Rune Array Simulator?"
Wang Xiaotian nodded.
Talein: "If you give another 1,000 Force, that's about the same." ”
"Good. I'll give you 1000 Force, and tomorrow night, I'll see the simulator working. ”
Ta Ling appeared above Wang Xiaotian's head, and his little face smiled into a flower, "No problem!"
The next day, Wang Xiaotian entered the Tower of Babel again and found that the rune array simulator was normal. He tried a few more common rune arrays, and the results he obtained were not much different from the actual ones.
Then, Wang Xiaotian immersed himself in the rune array simulation. Simulating rune arrays is by no means simple, input the existing rune arrays to see the results, but in the process of simulating the existing rune arrays, fully understand the characteristics of each rune, as well as the combination changes.
It's like someone who has just started learning programming will take a textbook and copy the above examples into a computer to see the results. This process may seem like a wasted effort, but it is actually the best way to learn.
Only by fully understanding the characteristics, functions, and changes of each rune, as well as the combination patterns and functions between each rune, can we use these things to make a complex rune array.
For example, the exact same sand, cement and steel can only be used by crappy builders to build chicken coops. Clever architects can use them to build a magnificent, magnificent Louvre. The world of difference between the two is entirely due to the high ground of individual technical ability.
The same goes for rune arrays. It is the sand, cement and steel that make up the building.
The reason why Wang Xiaotian studied the rune array assiduously was because he felt that up to now, the cultivators' research on the rune array was only scratching the surface. It's like building a chicken coop and a house out of sand, cement and steel.
He believed that the rune array had absolutely great potential, and if he could make a breakthrough in this regard, it would be no less than reaching the top of the martial arts!
October 1, January contract expires. At four o'clock in the afternoon, people came to the viewing platform of the west playground one after another, and by half past four, the stands were already crowded with people
, Wu Yang Wu's. These people came to see Cheng Yunshi and Wang Dadi fighting.
Although many students fainted last time because they watched Wang Xiaotian and Luo Wuji fight, they were mentally shocked, but even so, it couldn't stop their enthusiasm for watching the excitement.
As a witness, Wang Xiaotian also came to the middle of the playground early. Cao Lianyou, Wang Nana, and Lin Daoming also watched from the edge of the playground, and Lu Yusheng and many teachers also stood at the front, preparing to protect the onlookers and melon-eating crowds in case the situation was out of control.
At 4:55, Cheng Yunshi didn't know where to teleport directly to Wang Xiaotian and stood side by side with him.
Wang Xiaotian: "You're so high-profile this time." Aren't you afraid that Sect Master Chen will receive the news and come to arrest you and return to the Sword Pavilion?"
Cheng Yunshi: "After fighting Wang Dadi, I'm ready to go back." ”
Wang Xiaotian was stunned, "Why did you decide to go back?"
Cheng Yunshi said: "This month, I am like an ordinary person, I am attending classes and living in Furong College, and I am also like an ordinary person, playing and shopping in Xijing City. But I have never been able to fit into the world of ordinary people. ”
"This also made me understand that it is indeed difficult for cultivators and ordinary people to get along. Whether it is the goal of life or the ideal in our hearts, we are not on the same line. ”
"Cultivation is an instinct. You will get tired of it after a long time, but you will miss it after leaving for a long time. Occasionally, a practitioner is like an ordinary person, and it feels good to live for a while. It's just that as time goes by, the practitioner still refrains from the desire to practice. ”
Wang Xiaotian nodded lightly, "That's right." The life of a practitioner is rigid and monotonous every day, like a porridge dish, which makes people feel bored. The life of ordinary people is colorful, like a rich meal. ”
"I eat a lot of porridge and side dishes, and at first glance it is a feast of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and I will definitely be unable to extricate myself. But if you eat a big meal every day, anyone will get tired of it, and then they will miss the porridge and side dishes. ”
Cheng Yunshi asked, "Do you think I'm fickle?"
Wang Xiaotian shook his head lightly, "No." No one is set in stone. What's more, you entered the Sword Pavilion to practice at a very young age, and the world of ordinary people is a huge temptation for you. The ancients said that if they did not enter the red dust, how could they see through the red dust? Only after experiencing the life of ordinary people can they fulfill their long-cherished wish and concentrate on cultivation. Am I right?"
Cheng Yunshi nodded and said, "That's right." You're right. Guess what's my long-cherished wish?"
Wang Xiaotian quietly turned his head to look at Cheng Yunshi, but found that she was also secretly glancing at him, and as soon as the eyes of the two touched, they immediately quickly withdrew. At this moment, the two of them were full of thoughts in their hearts, and their hearts were in turmoil.
Cheng Yunshi lowered her head slightly. Wang Xiaotian resisted the impulse in his heart, and tried to turn his head outward, until he suddenly caught a glimpse of Cao Lianyou, who was looking at them on the edge of the playground, he suddenly shook his whole body, and all the thoughts in his mind suddenly dissipated.
He calmed down, turned his head to look at the bell tower in the distance, and saw that the pointer had pointed to 4:59, so he immediately had nothing to say to resolve the embarrassment, and said, "It's almost five o'clock, Wang Dadi shouldn't be scared and dare not come, right?"
Cheng Yunshi also quickly calmed down, looked up at the front, and said, "Probably not." She's not that kind of person. ”
Wang Xiaotian suddenly found an acquaintance in the crowd watching the battle, and immediately said, "Luo Wuji is also here." ”
Cheng Yunshi followed his line of sight and saw Luo Wuji in the crowd. Luo Wuji also saw her and nodded lightly at her.
Cheng Yunshi also nodded, said hello to Luo Wuji, and then said to Wang Xiaotian: "The fight you fought with him was very noisy, it's been half a month, and I can still hear people talking about you on the street." ”
Wang Xiaotian smiled slightly, "How much strength can he rank in your Sword Pavilion?"
