Chapter 81: The Sorcerer's Loneliness
Hearing the call, Joss wrapped in a black robe, silently stepped out of the ranks, and walked into the iron cage.
Inside the cage, ten death row prisoners with weapons in their hands and ragged clothes trembled, and when they saw Joss in a black robe, their eyes flashed with bloodthirsty fierceness.
Outside the cage, Mark said lightly: "Within ten seconds, kill them in different ways, weapons and witchcraft are not allowed, you must use your bare hands, let's start!" ”
As soon as the death row prisoner raised his weapon, Joss stretched out his tentacles under his black robe, instantly piercing a death row prisoner through the heart.
The onlookers were shocked:
"Oh my God! Is this a whole body mutation? ”
"It should be, in order to become stronger, it's too hard!"
In order to become stronger, it is extremely rare to mutate to such an extent, even in the flesh opera house that worships combat power.
Because mutations often have side effects, in terms of longevity, potential, or casting, they cause unpredictable effects, and the more mutations, the stronger the side effects.
At this time, in the iron cage, Joss waved countless tentacles to show different killing skills.
Some strangled their necks and suffocated, some broke their jaws, and some got headshots... Death is dazzling.
The whole process took less than a few seconds, and Mark nodded with satisfaction: "Qualified, next..."
Next, the apprentices came out one after another, their per capita knight combat power, some were still big knights, death row prisoners were no more than mortals, although they fought hard, they still couldn't escape all kinds of death.
The assessment seems redundant, but Roman knows the meaning, the primary quality of an excellent warrior is not combat skills, but whether there is murderous intent.
A warrior is used to kill, and a warrior who has no murderous intent cannot be used on the battlefield.
Crisply, without hesitation, he killed ten people in different ways, and in this way, Mark screened out qualified fighters.
At this time, Mark said in a loud voice: "Next, Roman!" ”
Roman heard the words and walked into the cage, and in front of him, ten death row inmates were ragged and fierce, clenching their weapons, ready to fight to the death.
"Chip, calculate the best kill plan ......"
"Ding! The task is set up, the simulation job begins... The simulation is complete... The scheme is as follows..."
At the same time, an order was issued outside the cage: "Begin!" ”
Roman galloped, and in a breath, he teleported to the middle of the death row prisoner, and his palm was a knife, drawing an arc of light, and a human head flew into the sky.
Blood was sprayed, making the death row inmates understand that only by resisting can they have a glimmer of life, and they all lashed at Roman with ferocity.
Roman's expression was as calm as water, he pointed out, went straight to the hole of death, and took another life in an instant, and then the tiger entered the flock, and with a roundabout flying kick, kicking a person's head away.
In the end, he stepped forward and punched straight out, shattering his ribs and piercing his chest...... In a matter of seconds, all the death row inmates were killed.
The whole process, the movements are smooth, crisp and neat, without the slightest superfluity, in Mark's eyes, full of strange beauty.
After the dust settled, Mark came back to his senses and said loudly, "Qualified!" Next, Emma! ”
Emma heard this, made a "look at me" look at Roman, and then walked into the iron cage, ready to kill all sides.
At this moment, Joss approached Roman's side and said softly, "Roman, your fighting skills are very good, and your killing efficiency is almost catching up with me." ”
This is not a show-off, Emma's whole body is mutated, and she is already above humans in terms of fighting, and Roman can match her in this regard, which is a compliment in itself.
Roman smiled faintly and said: "On the road of pursuing the truth, you are not the only one who is making progress, and during the time I left, I have not relaxed for a moment." ”
Hearing this, Joss hesitated for a moment, and then plucked up the courage to ask, "I was at the airport before, and I saw you and Emma coming back together, may I ask what is between you...?" ”
Roman's eyes became surprised, and he thought: Could it be that the tentacle monster still has that kind of mind?
Then he thought about it and replied: "It's just a simple cooperative relationship, we have interests between us, and we get acquainted with each other after coming and going, that's all." ”
Josie's next questioning made him realize that he was wrong, and Joss asked, "Then you... Will you feel lonely? ”
"Loneliness?" Roman wondered, he had never thought about it.
Under the black robe, Joss said in a dejected tone:
"Not long ago, my family was slaughtered in the war of the nobility, and although I avenged them, I always felt that something was missing."
"Until one night, I was in the desert, looking up at the starry sky, and when I thought that I was the only one left in the world, I immediately felt suffocated, so uncomfortable."
"My family is dead, William is dead, if even you die, I will face the world alone, Roman, can you understand it?"
Roman wanted to say that you would spend a lot of time making friends in the future, and you would no longer be lonely, but thinking of Josie's appearance, it is estimated that no wizard would dare to get close to her.
So when the words came to his lips, Roman swallowed them back again, and said instead:
"If you want to suggest, you might as well think of it this way, human beings feel lonely because they are weak and unable to fight the world alone, and social, collective, and intimate relationships are born."
"But we are wizards, the power belongs to ourselves, we don't need society, we don't need unity, we can be selfish, we can go it alone, we can fight the world alone!"
After hearing this, Joss was thoughtful, and then asked suspiciously: "I understand the truth, but why do I feel uncomfortable when I am alone?" ”
Roman thought for a moment and continued:
"Human emotions are essentially controlled by the endocrine, just like cutting the amygdala, we will no longer feel fear, and the same is true of loneliness."
"So, you can check your endocrine system, and then remove the corresponding gland, and then boost the dopamine secretion, and it will feel a lot better."
When Joss heard this, she felt like she could see the moon, and Roman's explanation was much more useful than the truth.
The mood was depressed for no reason, it turned out that the chemicals were at work, and after understanding the essence, Josie's emo was reduced a lot, and her voice became brisk, and she said gratefully:
"Thank you, Roman! Without you, I don't know how long it would be before I came out. ”
Then he danced his tentacles and returned to the crowd, and Roman looked at her back and muttered to himself:
"It's obviously not human, but there are still human emotions, and the emotional endocrine is even enhanced, and it seems that the strengthening is defective......"
"What's flawed?" Emma's voice rang in her ears, and she pouted and said displeasedly:
"What were you talking about with the tentacle monsters? So hot! If you don't even watch my wonderful performance, am I not as attractive as the tentacle monster? ”
Roman smiled and said, "Why do women always ask strange questions, what's so nice about killing a few mortals?" Bored! ”
At this time, after the assessment, Mark announced:
"The situation is better than I imagined, most of you have passed the assessment! If there is no limit, I will definitely take you to the competition, but unfortunately not, you will still be eliminated! ”
Then, he led a group of wizards who had passed the assessment to the witchcraft practice room.
"Now, I'll teach you how to fight with witchcraft! Some of you have just been promoted, and some of you have been through a hundred battles, and you have just been promoted to study hard, and the old fritters should be reviewed, you know? ”
