Chapter 289: The Alchemist Contest Begins
Before the birth of science, the Sun and Moon Continent had powerful soul guidance technology and tricks that had been passed down from generation to generation in all walks of life.
But it is not possible to form a regular system, until the emergence of Gu Zhi, who proves all the know-how from a scientific point of view, makes bold assumptions, carefully verifies them, and draws conclusions.
For the first time, the craftsmen of the Eternal Chamber of Commerce completed the first cooperation with the soul masters, building an arena similar to a bird's nest, covering an area of one million square meters, which can accommodate more than 100,000 spectators, and the center can also set aside a kilometer radius for the craftsmen who master firearms and the soul masters who use soul guides to duel.
"For the first time, the Master Refiner of the Sun Moon Continent will officially start from now on."
Everyone hurriedly looked up and saw the main podium hanging above the arena, on which stood Gu Zhi, who had changed the situation of the Sun and Moon Empire in four months, and a strange woman with a peerless demeanor, she had a pair of dragon horns, and some dragon scales were showing on the sideburns on her face.
With this announcement, the long team of participants began to enter, on one side was the team of craftsmen holding flintlock pistols pushing artillery, and on the other side was the team of idle soul masters, who all had storage soul guides, so naturally they didn't need to work so hard.
Just as the participating teams finished entering, they heard a sound like a gun loading echoing in the arena, and then, one hundred and eight pillars rose from the ground, and colorful rays of light shot from the tops, converging in the center of the arena in mid-air.
The people present stared upwards and found that the converging light actually formed an image after the collision, and the first scene that came into their Tong Kong was a solemn-looking square team, a soldier dressed in black clothes raised the bow and crossbow in his hand, and fired a salvo of ten thousand arrows at a Titled Douluo with nine soul rings surrounded by two yellow, two purple, five black and nine soul rings, and the overwhelming arrows seemed to be able to open mountains and rivers.
In the face of the rain of arrows shot by the army of 10,000 people, that Titled Douluo did not dodge or dodge, and there was no trace of panic on his face, only to see that his first seven soul rings lit up at the same time, and in an instant, he turned into a fifteen-long flame dragon, and a mouthful of red flame dragon breath burned through the arrow rain and turned into red and brilliant molten iron dripping.
The picture came to an abrupt end at the moment when Yanlong rushed towards the military formation, and the ending was left to the audience's imagination.
In the second act, the hundred-man team dressed in brown shorts pushed the second rapid-fire cannon produced by the Eternal Chamber of Commerce, lined up the square team, and opposite them was the big man of the Kamakyue Province - Xu Yan, the king of Pinghai, in the picture, a round of scorching sun rose behind Xu Yan, with eight soul rings around his body, looking at the artillery array opposite with a serious expression.
Boom Boom –
There was a roar of artillery fire, and Xu Yan was drowned in smoke and flames, but the hundred-man squad only knew how to quickly fill the shells, and the joy of annihilating the enemy could not be seen on their faces.
At the moment when the shells were finished, the hundred men lowered their heads and looked at the dark hands.
After the smoke and dust cleared on the other side, Xu Yan walked out of the artillery fire, except for his clothes that were a little messy, and his breathing was a little short, but he was not injured.
At this time, the hundred people took out flintlock pistols and loaded bayonets, and launched a charge at Xu Yan, of course, the moment the two sides met, the picture stopped.
In the third act, the picture came to the sky dome, as the camera pulled in, the audience noticed that the person in the picture was Gu Zhi, he broke through the clouds with his hands behind his back, rushed straight to a higher place, crossed a gray light curtain, he came to a dark and silent world, along his line of sight, you can see the burning sun, and stars of different colors.
The moment he turned around, everyone stood up and they saw an aqua blue planet.
The first two scenes are the actions of ordinary people challenging the soul master, whether it is the army in the era of cold weapons or the current artillery fire phalanx, at least those people in the picture are determined and will not be afraid of their own failure.
Rather than fail, people should be worried that they will not have the courage to resist and accept their fate.
That's why there is the third act, Gu Zhi breaks through the sky and comes to the outside of the sky, bringing a broader perspective to all beings.
He is telling the world that man will conquer heaven.
The light and shadow dissipated, the applause of the audience was thunderous, and everyone's faces were full of fanaticism, they looked up at the main podium in the sky, at this moment, they actually ignored Gu Yuena's peerless face, and looked at Gu Zhi without blinking.
Although Gu Zhi did not stand up and lead their group of ordinary people to overthrow the rule of the soul master, he gave them a better choice to take control of their own power and guide them in the direction of progress.
engulf
After the opening ceremony, the participants began to take their positions, considering that firearms need to be formed to exert their power, so the competition is divided into two types, that is, individual competition and team competition.
However, there were only two team matches, and that was the flintlock pistol team and the artillery team against the Mingde Hall team. Because there were only two games, it was arranged at the end.
Now the field is divided into twenty-two pieces, the first round of knockouts is held, on the stage in the center of the field, a strong man wearing a brown short fight, slowly appeared, he was tied to a grenade, holding a huge flintlock pistol in his hand, he was Liang Wu's big apprentice, the cannon was very accurate, and the marksmanship was not bad.
Opposite him is a fifth-level soul master who graduated from the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, and at the same time as he appeared, he completed the possession of the martial soul, and his martial soul is the ink leopard, a very fast beast martial soul.
As the referee blew the whistle, Liang Wu's eldest apprentice took the lead in attacking, he tore off the grenade on his body, threw it out, and at the moment of the explosion, he raised the special flintlock pistol in his hand.
But before he could aim, he heard a cold voice coming from behind him.
"I have to say that under the guidance of that person, you have made some amazing things, but you seem to have forgotten one thing, weapons in different hands, the effect is different."
With the blessing of the Wind Thruster, this fifth-level soul master with the Ink Leopard Martial Soul has a speed that ordinary people can't see, and at this moment, he just put five eight-inch long claws on his opponent's shoulder, and he has already divided the winner and loser.
"The speed of the shells is high, and the speed of the bullets is also very fast, the only pity is that you ordinary people are not fast enough."
The reaction limit of ordinary people is not yet up to the entry threshold of a soul master, a great soul master with two hundred-year soul rings, even if it is an auxiliary system, can achieve 100 meters and 8 seconds with the blessing of soul power, if it is a strong attack system and the martial soul is a beast martial soul, 100 meters and five seconds are not a problem.
After the defeat of Liang Wu's great apprentice, the ordinary people who came on the field next failed miserably, rapid-fire guns were not good, and howitzers were not good.
The only draw was the use of white phosphorus bombs, and the entire arena turned into a sea of fire, even if the person who used the white phosphorus bombs put on asbestos clothes in advance, he was still almost burned to death.
In the stands, Gu Yuena watched with relish, no matter how many of these weapons were against her, it would be a disaster for those thousand-year-old soul beasts, or even thousand-year-old soul beasts.
She asked a little puzzled: "Why don't you give the method of body refining to the ordinary people here, the firearm is equipped with your body refining method, and it won't take twenty years for them to challenge those ninth-level soul masters." ”
The physical cultivation that has reached the second realm of the way of refining the body is comparable to the soul saint in terms of physical fitness, and even after the second realm is consummated, it can be compared to the weaker Titled Douluo.
Such a body refiner takes a bunch of firearms to make up for the lack of his own long-range attacks, and that is the great enemy that makes the Soul Saint Capital retreat.
"On the side of the Douluo Continent, it is actually the strongest force among the soul masters of the Martial Soul Palace, which promotes the awakening of ordinary people, so they are more suitable for cultivating the way of refining the body and challenging those nobles who are not very powerful.
In fact, there are hidden dangers in such a change, and the social system has not made fundamental progress, but has only changed from two empires to one empire. ”
The people in the audience couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh when they saw the losing streak of ordinary people, but Gu Zhi was very interested, whether it was to use white phosphorus bombs or to detonate all the bombs on his body when the other party was close to him.
In short, people who play with gunpowder have to be so not afraid of death, and if they are afraid of death, they will not be able to progress.
"The ordinary people on this side of the Sun Moon Continent have only obtained scientific knowledge from me that they can understand and carry forward, and if they use this as a weapon to break the blockade of social classes, then they will really promote the progress of the social form.
I call it the Industrial Revolution. ”
There were some words that she couldn't understand, Gu Yuena couldn't help but roll her eyes at Gu Zhi and said, "Isn't a unified empire good?" Do you have to toss these strange things, don't forget to break the stable order, bring about the passage of life, in your eyes your people are just a string of cold numbers? ”
As far as she knew, the war in the Douluo Continent could end in a few days, and the Martial Spirit Hall led by Gu Zhi had a crushing advantage over the two empires, but he just didn't carry out the decapitation operation, he had to let ordinary people participate in the war, and after four or five years of fighting, the second realm of refiners among ordinary people finally ended the unification war.
During this period, at least hundreds of millions of people died.
"Mankind does not desire war, but the shuffling of power and the transformation of classes are always inseparable from struggle."
Gu Zhi poked Gu Yuena's face and said with a smile: "People are such creatures who love infighting, which is also one of the reasons why people are strong. ”
