Chapter 66: Diary of the Dead
Maoyan's construction notebook alone occupies nearly half of the chapter. The first thing Lei Luo learned was what was called "ontological construction" and what was called "external object construction".
The body structure is the head, chest, legs, shoulders, hands, plus the back, wrists, waist, feet, these nine parts. Compared to the eight-piece anti-fitting set provided by the Steel Gate, there is an extra back position. Lei Luo was very suspicious that those bronze and silver energy equipment had imitated the principle of construction, and it was only then mass-produced and put into trial use.
There are three exterior pieces, including a necklace and two rings. At first, Lei Luo didn't understand what it meant to have two rings, not ten, but later he saw the "triangular balance theorem" and understood it.
No matter how strong a warrior is, there is a limit to what he can bear. In the history of construction, the nine-piece ontological construction was the highest load, and later with the gradual deepening of research on energy balance, the external object construction was developed.
The three pieces of constructed jewelry mainly play the role of carriers, sharing a very large part of the bearing pressure for the warriors. A ring on the left and right hands, and the necklace on the neck just form a perfect balance triangle of the human body, so that the energy undercurrent is like a river flowing into the sea, and it is integrated into the body without conflict, so as to achieve the purpose of giving full play to the effect of composition.
In layman's terms, this is actually a powder magazine, and the process of approaching another powder magazine is a great test of the builder's level.
As far as he could see in his notes, Lei Luo found that the world of construction was extremely profound, and all kinds of construction techniques could be developed to the point where they were now, which could be called extremely mature.
What puzzled him was that he hadn't even heard of the existence of the constructs in the Silver Wing Empire.
Lei Luo stood on the first floor of the stronghold, looking at the world outside through the observation hole, and fell into deep thought.
This is his favorite place to stay, and he can only rely on a wide field of vision to keep his mind clear and sharp.
A thick bolt of lightning pierced the chaos, turning the world outside the stronghold into a miserable white.
This kind of weather phenomenon, which was originally commonplace, now makes Lei Luo feel a little uncomfortable. So far, the impression of the Eternal Night Battlefield has always been lifeless, even the sky and the earth have died together. This lightning bolt seemed to bring the world realm back to life, revealing a little normal aura.
Thunder rumbled and rolled across the vast land.
Lei Luo looked at the direction where the Black Gate was located from afar, and suddenly he was stunned, and there was an electric light in his mind - the Eternal Night Battlefield is so strange, maybe this is another world at all, and he doesn't know the way!
Under the shaking of his heart, the perception ability that he had been struggling to maintain suddenly faded like a tide.
In the past few days, under Lei Luo's morbid insistence, his [Living Perception] has been maintained intermittently for longer and longer, and the total time per day has almost exceeded twelve hours!
I'm afraid that even Serena, who copied the secret method and heart secret to him, would not have thought that there would be someone in this world who would temper his mental power in such a crazy way! For those who are strong in the super-mental flow, maintaining perception forever is equivalent to a trivial matter, but Lei Luo is a layman who is just starting out, and it is very likely that such a brutal trick will cause irreversible damage to himself.
Fortunately, the intelligence attribute of up to 5.3 gave Lei Luohu the capital, whether he was out for maintenance, or when he was eating, drinking, and Lazar, he was trying his best to activate [Living Perception]. Once the duration ends, then a second comes. I was exhausted, my head became painful, and I still forced it to do it.
Under this degree of extreme oppression, the body's crisis instinct was automatically awakened, far beyond the intellectual attributes of ordinary people, combined with physical attributes, and a series of emergency "strengthening transformations" were carried out for brain tissues and nerve central systems, supporting him to survive step by step.
Just like the cyclic process of muscle tearing, muscle remodeling, and muscle strengthening, in this perceptual battle, the brain has been proven to become stronger through repeated exercise! Lei Luo also further realized that under the effect of adding point attributes, the body is like a treasure trove, the more you invest, the more you maintain, the more you gain!
"It doesn't matter if this is another world or not, what matters is its own strength!"
Lei Luo suppressed the chaotic thoughts, and the mental power poured out of his body, once again constructing the cyan perception horizon, and the whole process was as natural as breathing.
Judging from the strong upward momentum of cultivation, it is by no means a pipe dream to maintain the ability to perceive permanently. [Living Perception] The current cultivation level has reached 97% of "mastery", and Lei Luo is looking forward to how far the range of perception will expand once he reaches the "perfect" level.
"If there is a higher cultivation level after the perfect level, wouldn't Lao Tzu want to turn into a humanoid radar, and even an intercontinental missile can sense it?" Suddenly, a rather strange thought jumped out of his heart, and Lei Luo couldn't help but be stunned, grinning silly.
The time for the security briefing is almost up.
Lei Luo was just about to go down to the control room, and looked at the locker that couldn't fit the wall tightly, and the obsessive-compulsive disorder had a momentary attack, and he went up and arched his shoulders. Who knew that the force of the road was a little stronger, and the locker itself was almost rusty and tattered, and it actually collapsed, and even the wall was knocked out of a hole.
"Fuck!" Lei Luo scolded angrily.
The wall that had been blocked by the cabinet was so dirty that it was crawling with dry cobwebs and gray filth that I don't know how to describe. Lei Luo's eyes were sharp, and he saw that there seemed to be something hidden in the hole in the wall that he knocked out, so he didn't bother to figure it out for a while, so he ran to the control room and entered the security bulletin code.
When he returned, he cleaned up the garbage, found a bare broom, and smeared it on the wall, waiting for the dust to settle before probing over.
The inside of the wall hole is square, apparently specially built. Since it had been closed before, there was no dust. But the cold had frozen the contents harder than stone, and they looked like extremely thin pieces of bone, the size of a palm, stacked on top of each other in rectangular stacks, grayish-white, stained with blackened blood, and the top one was engraved with vague handwriting.
"In November 703 of the Orthodox calendar, I was assigned to the front of the legion and came to this stronghold. Including me, there are a total of six warriors in the stronghold. They all laughed when they told me that I had just turned seventeen, and hoped that they would not treat me as a burden in the future...... "The handwriting on the bone fragment was no longer clear, and the lower part was corrupted by the long river of time.
"Holy!" Stammered Lei Luo.
When I was messing with my history teacher, the old man once said that the "orthodox calendar" refers to BC, and only the ancients would call it that.
Lei Luo, who was aroused by curiosity, roughly counted, the number of bone fragments exceeded 100, all of them were frozen together, and if he pulled hard, he was afraid that he would tear one piece and destroy two pieces.
Knocking on his head, he quickly ran to get a pot of water, boiled it to half temperature on the steam stove, and poured it on top of the stack of bone shards. After pouring a whole pot of water, I waited for a moment before carefully uncovering the first one.
Due to the long-term freezing and adhesion, when the first bone fragment was completely removed, Lei Luo found that most of the inscriptions on the second one had been destroyed, and he couldn't help frowning slightly. I continued to uncover a few more photos, and basically the same, so I had to stop for a moment to see what the young man who was destined to die had written on the bone shard.
"November 19th. The first time I saw lightning here. It's strange, it's a normal phenomenon, but it feels abnormal......"
"On November 20, a thunderstorm came. I've never encountered a thunderstorm like this, and the faces of several old birds are ugly. I had a bad feeling that I wouldn't be good, but I didn't say anything......"
"On November 21, Rod and Lucas got into a fight, Rod was bitten and one of Lucas's arms was broken. None of them were willing to go out to maintain the defenses, and I didn't think there was anything to be afraid of, so I went, and everything went well. When I came back, they got a little weird, as if they were avoiding me......"
"On November 22nd, I went to maintain the facility. They hid in the rest room at the bottom all day, with the lights turned off, their eyes shining in the dark, like a pack of fearful beasts. I couldn't figure out what was going on, so I had to be on my own. Mom, I have not lacked courage since I was a child. But if you can hear my prayers, please bless me, for I can't find the way ahead......"
"November 27 ......"
Seeing this, Lei Luo deliberately glanced at the next bone fragment, and found that the date order was not confused, so he continued to read.
"On November 27, I woke up. Back at the stronghold, they were all dead, eaten cleanly, and there was not a single hair left. I don't know how I survived, but I remember that those things attacked me when the thunderstorms were most frequent, and I must have been in a coma for days on the 23rd. Now I understand what they are doing for their own routine, these things are coming from the North Shore, and I wonder if they come from a hell worse than here......"
There was a soft "click", and Lei Luo put down the bone fragment and turned his head to look at the console.
Several green lights, which represent the operation of the Phalanx sensing system, have jumped into red lights, where they are flashing coldly. Beyond the lonely stronghold in the night, a miserable white electric light reflected the sky as cold as a corpse.
