Chapter 87: Artificial Soul Complete, Prologue to a New Era! (6800)
The moment the scarlet sphere space appeared, both the mire and the marsh leeches and some being beyond the swamp moved their eyes and looked in this direction in surprise.
And at this moment, a lot of splashing mud that originally came like cannonballs rotated in space in a spiral trajectory, and finally converged in front of Miles and crashed towards him!
Boom!
In an instant, Miles' entire body flew away, his body slamming into the trees behind him, shattering it at the waist, and then slamming into the ground with a thud, exploding a hole several meters in size.
The earth trembled, but the leech opened its eyes wide.
Because it senses that its attacks are not only deflected by these humans, but ...... Even the villain who looked quite fragile and had a little sublimation aura was not killed!
Smoke rose from the crater, and Miles' somewhat embarrassed figure crawled out of it—the iron sword in his hand had broken and shattered, and his arm had taken on an unnatural twist, apparently broken.
But he's still alive, and he's alive and well—it's just a broken bone, and it's not permanent to the Terra.
With the physical fitness of an ordinary person, he forcibly withstood the blow of the second-level demonic beast!
Even if it is a casual blow, this defensive power is enough to be comparable to the city wall!
"Huh? Not dead? Worry me!"
At this moment, there was also an exclamation-like sound outside the black swamp, and the mire leech did not have the energy to mend the knife against Miles, but turned its head and looked beyond the swamp, letting out a fierce and high roar, vibrating the surrounding woods and swamps.
But the giant beast was greeted by a sword like a tidal wave.
For a moment, whether it was Miles, the other pioneers, or even the swamp leeche, they all saw a wide and mighty streamer, which was as blue as the sea, carrying a damp and surging breath, and making the sound of rolling waves.
It's like a big tide on the horizon, pushing flat, but it's unstoppable.
The mire leech was creepy, its scales stood up, and it roared, and countless mud in the black swamp rolled upside down, forming a layer of swirling mud tornadoes to protect itself in the center, and this tidal wave of sword light slammed into it.
In an instant, time froze, and the turquoise light swirled and trembled, as if searching for a weak point in the enemy's defenses.
It was found.
Therefore, immediately after, the sword light was like a hot knife cutting through cream, easily slicing through the mud shield, and then across the sky.
Pierced by the sword light, the mire leech stood still in place, and after a few seconds, waiting for the waves to dissipate and the blue mist to dissipate, it fell abruptly and silently.
The breath of the giant beast is weakened, and it is seen that it is seriously injured, and it has no strength to fight.
"It's the sublimator from the Cult—"
There was an exclamation from the Wastelander, and the angler from before seemed to have thought of something, and he suddenly said, "Yes, I remember, the person in charge said some time ago that in the recent past, the Sect will send sublimators to help us clear the beasts of the Black Swamp......
"But they didn't say that this sublimator is so strong!"
And when Miles gritted his teeth to straighten his bones, he somewhat understood why the mire leeches suddenly appeared before, and why they just attacked them casually - because the giant leeches sensed the breath of the sublimator outside the black swamp and was forced to come out, and it was precisely because of this that it didn't have the energy to target them little pioneers!
But more than that, Miles was still surprised by the psychic energy he had just burst out.
Just now, Miles burst out with scarlet psionic energy, which was far greater than the psionic energy he used to protect Cynthia in the past, and he couldn't figure out why for a while.
If you have to say that the importance of these workers is more important than Cynthia in his heart, it is impossible, there is definitely a condition for his spiritual energy to be activated, and what is this condition......
"Is it unwilling to see everyone die, or is it a desire to say that others are in danger and I want to stop it?"
It's hard to say, but Miles instinctively
Tell him that both are there and complement each other.
More than ten seconds later, outside the Black Swamp, a figure came to the area where the pioneers were at an extremely fast speed.
Qing Chao glanced at the mire giant leech, this giant beast that was severely injured by his sword was not poor in strength, but in a bad brain.
"The special ability of the Tide Bringer, the second energy level, the Sword of Tide Resistance, is to directly damage the core internal organs through the strong kinetic energy transmission brought by the resonance of the water cloud, passing through the enemy's defense.
If the giant leech uses its own flesh and blood defense, it may be able to use essentia to offset the damage of his sword, at most it is a minor injury, but it has to use a shield to block, or a fluid mud shield, and the result is naturally that the power of the mud itself is resonated by the Tidal Sword, which in turn hurts itself.
The reason why the true form of the tide messenger is famous is precisely because more than 500 years ago when the Terra countries faced the landing of sea beasts, because the gathered troops were not enough, they almost failed to prevent most of the enemy from building their nests, and the first generation of tide messengers rushed into the sea under the protection of many comrades, setting off a tsunami sword, directly cutting off the world line and sounding the horn of counterattack.
That sword slashed a large area of land and the nest of sea beasts, and even the continental plate where the Whale Song Cliff is located was displaced to the outside, forming the great whirlpool area between the inner sea and the wandering sea of the Whale Song Cliff today, and the place where the tide messenger set off is now the open sea port of the Abasarom blood line of the Flying Flame Countries, the Far Vortex Harbor.
Qingchao came here to clear the demonic beasts in the Black Swamp area for the wastelanders and avoid danger.
For this reason, he also specially notified the gathering place and asked the clearers not to enter the Black Swamp today.
Who knows, Miles and his party set off too early, and when the news of him arrived, the people had already entered the swamp and couldn't pull it back at all.
Not to mention, he sensed it slightly, and he was stunned to find that this group of people was actually next to the giant leech—the flat ground where this group of people stood was the top layer of the nest built by the giant leech!
They also don't want to think about what it means for a solid soil to suddenly appear in the middle of a swamp. It's hard to say about other places, if it's in the Baisen Mountains, this kind of abnormal area that violates the surrounding environment, it must be a nest of demonic beasts!
This group of people stepped on the heads of other people's monsters and made a fuss, that is, the giant leeches endured the humiliation and didn't want to be found, so they endured it and didn't come out, otherwise they would have eaten this group of people in one bite!
But later, the giant leech found out about his arrival and had to take action and confront him, but even so, he gave them a blow because of anger.
Originally, Qingchao thought that this group of unlucky pioneers who were too unlucky and stepped on the death line step by step were estimated to die here...... But I never thought that among these pioneers, there was actually a psionic person!
"You kid...... It's a psyker?"
The blue-haired swordsman stepped on the mist and landed beside Miles, he looked at the young man with interest, floated it, helped him stabilize his injuries with essentia, and then sent Miles to his fellow co-workers, "Looks like you're manifesting your psionic powers to protect others, that's good!"
"If it weren't for you, even if I were there, you'd all be dead."
Of course, everyone knew that Miles had saved their lives—they didn't know anything about psionic powers, but they could still understand the way the scarlet space converged all the attacks on Miles himself, and it was clear that Miles had used his own body to block the fatal blow for them.
Everyone was so cold that Miles was speechless: "Don't, don't touch me! It hurts!"
Although his main injuries are in his hands, in fact, during the activation of his spiritual energy, the attacks he bears are divided throughout his body, and the broken hands are because the spiritual energy is not strong enough, if his spiritual energy goes further and can completely block the enemy's attacks, then even if the death and injury are apportioned, it is probably equivalent to a slight injury all over the body.
This kind of spiritual energy is enough to make him a perfect body with no fatal injuries, only blood volume!
Qing Chao looked at this scene with a smile, he touched his chin, and felt that he had gained a lot.
Killing the mire leech is obviously his credit, but this credit is deserved, he has become the second energy level, and he should do these things to clear the monster instead of Ian - the real harvest is to discover
A psyker!
For a lord like Ian, it is a great achievement to have a psionic person in the territory, and it is also of great help to ask for the assistance of the empire in the future, not to mention that the psionics themselves are synonymous with sublimation and genius, and it is not a problem for them to advance to the second energy level with careful cultivation and natural souls.
In particular, when this psionic person used psionic energy before, it seemed that he was using some kind of sword technique to reverse the direction of the enemy's attack and reduce the damage to himself...... Although his swordsmanship talent is not as good as his, it is enough!
"Let's go!"
Thinking of this, Qingchao didn't say much, but patted Miles on the shoulder, making the other party's face darken and laughing, and infusing a little essentia to help him recover his strength: "Let's get out of the black swamp first, then again, what's your name?"
Limbo.
Ian was in the Shroud with Adalbert, researching the Radiance Collar version of the artificial soul, the built-in functional structure and the writing of the built-in function (in short, writing a program), when he suddenly sighed.
The young man raised his head and looked to the northwest, "There is a psionic reaction over there, and it is not weak, it is not a new awakener."
"Hmm. Besides, the smell is very familiar......
Adbert also raised his head, the two have been working in the Void for a long time, programming artificial souls is not a big deal for experienced Dead Lords, but Ian requires a lot more functions for the new version of artificial souls than Dead Lords, even if it can't be achieved at present, he has to reserve space for interfaces, so things are complicated.
Even with a genius like Adbert, plus a prophet like Ian, they were only halfway through the curve in so many days.
On top of that, they couldn't find a living artificial soul holder to compare with what the pattern of the functioning artificial soul was.
Both of them were dead kings, and the artificial souls in their bodies had already solidified, and they could not be used as references at all.
- It would be nice if there was a living Grand Duke who could be an observer.
Both of them felt so emotional, but they really couldn't find it, so they had to continue to repair while doing experiments with themselves, and constantly fix bugs.
But just now, they sensed a hint of familiarity.
Glimmer...... It has something to do with the Dead King.,The breath of spiritual energy.。
"I'll go check on the situation, Adelbert, you go on."
Ian and the Dead Monarch researcher glanced at each other, and then prepared to leave the Void, but Adbert hurriedly followed, "Wait for me, it has something to do with the Dead Monarch, I will definitely go too!"
So Qingchao, who was reporting the news at the Black Swamp gathering place, waited for two characters he didn't expect.
"Boss? Shadow?"
The swordsman touched his head, a little surprised and a little inexplicable: "Why are you all here? It's not too big, is it?"
It's not that Qingchao underestimates the importance of psionics, but it's not to the point where a lord runs out of the door himself—let alone the cutting-edge researcher of the old shadow.
Although it was not clear at first, after Qing Chao stayed in Xia Hui for a few weeks, he clearly understood that the gentle and honest Bai Zhimin (Adalbert's disguised identity) that he had taken over from the Dragon Worship Sect was actually a genius whose research strength was not inferior to that of his own boss, and he had personally seen the old shadow and Ian have heated discussions and even arguments about certain research projects, although Ian won more and lost less, but this was one of the few times he could see Ian persuaded by another person's opinion!
As a full-time researcher and a top alchemist, Gu Ying is at least T1 below Ian in the Xiahui Collar Ecological Chain!
Is it possible that these two heavyweights actually ran directly to the Black Swamp for the news of Miles...... This kid has more potential than he thinks?
Or is his ability rare?
It's a bit of both.
"You've done a great job this time, Qingchao!"
Ian's eyes shone with a silvery blue glow, and he watched from afar as the little orange-haired girl was resting in the room
Miles, who was taking care of it, said in a burning tone, "I really didn't expect it to take so much effort to get it - it really allowed me to find the last survivor of Azure City again...... A living artificial soul bearer!"
"Moreover, his psionic state is very amazing!"
Compared to Ian's excitement, Adalbert's emotions were very subtle, mixed with a kind of joy and self-reproach: "The last survivor of Azure City...... If it weren't for the timely arrival of Qingchao, they would probably have died in our territory."
"If that's the case, it's probably a mistake I can't forgive for the rest of my life...... Thank you very much, Qingchao!"
Saying this, Adbert clenched the hand of the dazed Qingchao tightly, his face full of gratitude, which made the swordsman a little embarrassed: "Ah...... Is it really that powerful?"
In fact, it's that powerful.
Ian glanced at Miles and the co-workers next to him, all of them lifeless, black and red, and didn't return to normal until he arrived.
If the original trajectory is followed, it is obvious that these people are going to die, and God knows why they are so unlucky.
But because of the changes brought by Ian, whether it is the advancement of the green tide or the sweep of the mountain people in the Baisen Mountains, the demonic beasts have been reined in a lot, so they have the possibility of surviving.
The prophet's changes to the surrounding environment and the general trend of the times are enough to change the trajectory of the fate of countless people.
But here's the problem, there are good and bad changes, even prophets need help to notice all kinds of subtleties, and the opportunity ,—— Qingchao seized this opportunity to detect and protect Miles.
Miles himself could never have imagined that just by showing his psychic powers, he could attract the top boss of his own top boss and the top boss of his top boss - it sounds like stacking armor, but in fact there are so many layers!
After all, above the person in charge of the gathering place, there is also the head in charge, and above the head of the head is the Xia Hui Leader of the Baisen Mountain Range Development Department, and the Baisen Mountain Range Development Department is directly managed by the lord...... If it weren't for the fact that his body was really inconvenient, Miles would have gotten out of bed and prepared to kneel down when he heard the news - he wasn't dead, so he didn't dare to lie on the bed and wait for the lord to come.
But just as Miles was about to get out of bed, he saw Ian's face as he opened the door, and he was stunned.
These cyan eyes ......
"You, you're the one who gave me that box of supplies?"
Miles himself didn't even notice that he was kneeling, but he didn't feel it at all, those familiar cyan eyes, and the scene of the explosion of the flying machine appeared in the young swordsman's dreams from time to time, and he wondered if the sublimator who had kindly given him supplies was dead, and whether he still had a chance to thank him...... But because his own life is very hard, he really doesn't have the energy to think too much, so he can only give up.
And just recently, as he solved the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation, Miles picked up this distress instead.
Maybe it's because of the obsession of the psyker, the psyker is a group of people who are persistent and have abnormal thinking, and he has always wanted to know the identity of the sublimator and repay him for his kindness. After all, without that box of supplies, I am afraid that Cynthia and I would have died long ago.
"Yes. That's me."
Xia Hui has no rules for kneeling, but many people are still willing to kneel to Ian, and Ian doesn't say much about this, anyway, as long as he is loyal to him, he doesn't mind the form.
Staring at the purple-haired swordsman in front of him, Ian's gaze swept over the light orange hair on one side, a little uneasy and a little dazed, he smiled slightly, and an invisible force helped the two of them up and made them sit side by side on the bed: "Don't be so nervous, the last two survivors of Azure City, I didn't expect to see you here, it seems that we really have some fate."
"Going around and around, you came to my territory, and in a sense, it was because of you that I was able to advance to the second energy level so early, and the flow of fate is really interesting."
The Prophetic Vision and the Silver Chip were activated at the same time, and Ian completely saw through Miles' current situation at the moment.
At this moment, the young swordsman's injuries have been basically controlled, and the spiritual energy and the physical body are already one, and awakening the spiritual energy will bring about the activation and sublimation of the physical body, so that the physical strength, regenerative power and even digestion ability are improved, just like when Ian awakened the foreknowledge horizon, his physical fitness has also increased in all aspects, and he has reached the most basic sublimator training requirements.
For ordinary people, although Miles's injuries are serious, as long as they can be recuperated, they can be healed in a week or two, and this kind of spiritual energy that evenly distributes injuries makes Ian's eyes shine, this strange sharing of damage, can basically be regarded as another kind of damage reduction, structure, in short, it is like digitizing everything about people, turning all life force into blood volume,.
As long as the amount of blood does not drop to a certain point, it will not affect the combat effectiveness, and the damage that could have cut off the limbs, if you encounter Miles's spiritual energy, it can only make him bleed all over his body, although it looks terrifying, but it will not reduce the combat power.
And...... The opponent's spiritual energy is also very special when activated.
Not only as a shield of protection, but most importantly, as a model for designating psionic energy to defense.
Miles's psionic energy is built with a part, the soul.
In other words, Miles is also a little Dead King, and the souls of many relatives or residents of Azure City have remained in the bodies of Miles and the little girl Cynthia, but they don't have the power of the real Dead King, nor do they have the mark of the Dead King, so when the power of the soul strengthens their bodies, they also gradually make their bodies tend to be spiritualized.
This is not a good thing for ordinary people...... The holder of the spiritual body has a soul and can perceive the outside world more keenly, but for a little girl without a soul, a half-step spiritual body will cause insensitivity to the injuries of her body, and it is easy to cause various accidents.
Miles himself is a psionic person, which is good to say, there is a prototype of the soul, and the impact is not very large, but his spiritual energy is connected with the souls of some residents, which certainly enhances the power of his psionic energy, and even the attacks of the second-level demonic beasts can resist, but it is not spiritual.
It's not that it's ineffective, it's that if Miles wants to activate his ability, he needs to be more determined, faithful.
A persistent belief that can affect not only oneself, but also the soul in one's body can succeed!
"Interesting, very interesting!"
This special construction made Ian's eyes shine.
Miles's natural, amplified structure of psionic energy and foreign psionic energy may be a gift from the souls of Azure City to their sole survivor, and this natural structure, if it can be used in his planned spiritual core shelter system, can greatly enhance the defense.
Moreover, Miles' psionic abilities are also "very similar" to the Guardian Knight he saw on the way to the Spiritual Calamity...... If Ian was still thinking that part of the Knights of Shelter was the ability of his Dead King, the Nether Armor, but the other part was not clear what it was, then now, he understood that Miles was the prototype of the Knights of Protection!
Miles's psionic energy,
Fate guided Ian, or rather, what Ian did along the way, led Miles to his territory.
It's not luck, it's predestined!
Not to mention, Miles and Cynthia are the few remaining holders of Grand Duke Thorin's artificial soul experiment!
This would be the solution to the problems he and Adbert had before...... As long as you check the operation of the artificial souls in Miles and Cynthia's bodies a few more times, the new version of the artificial souls can quickly get out of the initial laboratory stage and enter the clinical utility stage!
[Adbort? 】
Ian looked at the Dead King, and he wanted to talk to him about how he could use some kind of excuse to trick Miles into going to the lab...... Well, with his current status, Miles would have to go into the lab with an order, and he would see it as a reward, after all, there would be nothing wrong with this kind of examination.
Ian will even help him sort out the link structure between psionic energy and the revenant, so that his psionic energy can be used more smoothly.
But obviously,
Adalbert wasn't thinking about experiments right now.
Ian noticed that his lead researcher was just as excited, but not like he was, seeing in Miles the "inspiration, and, prototype" that many of the technologies needed in the future were so badly needed.
The overly moral Dead Monarch researcher was simply excited by the fact that he was one of the few survivors in the Avak realm.
"It's okay, you've come to Nanling, and there won't be any more danger after that!"
Adbert stepped forward, and the rather tender-faced, smaller-looking researcher took Miles' hand and sincerely assured, "This time, it's the last time! Believe me, this is definitely different from Avak, it is a quiet and peaceful territory!"
"You and your sister will usher in a new future, a new life!"
Qingchao and Miles glanced at each other, and the two swordsmen who were also clasped by Adbert before and after, and their faces were dazed, but they also sensed the sincerity of each other, and almost the same thoughts welled up in their hearts.
"Ah, this ......."
"Is it really that powerful?"
Ian sighed.
As a prophet, Ian has become accustomed to making various choices with cold advantages and disadvantages and trends, and he does not need to think about the difference between emotions and reality, because his emotions are always in line with the direction of reality.
If you think about it carefully, he's so utilitarian as a lord probably just to make up for the excess and abundant emotions of his subordinates.
But this ...... It's not a bad thing either.
After all, wanting to go to the heavens makes people spontaneously look up at the stars and yearn to go to distant places......
What is needed is obviously a smile, not sadness.
In the year 774 of Terra, on February 28B, the Green Tide slew the mire in the middle of the Black Swamp.
Terra 774, March 14B, the experimental version of the Radiance Collar artificial soul is freshly baked.
The times are moving towards a new chapter.
