The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 223: The Sacrifice of Old Friends (Part 1)

Two hours ago, the inaccessible hills of the North China Plain were filled with smoke in front of the hills. The high windbreaks cut off the world like walls, and the smoke-covered battlefield was silent,

"Then, as agreed, I will tell you the secret of my ability." Ed patted his chest, and the fragments of the tattered suit were flying like butterfly pieces, showing strong muscles glowing with metallic luster, an m18a4 broadsword-4 reversed The infantry landmine failed to cause any damage to the tall man, and this landmine was the most lethal weapon Gu Tie found from the scavenger. "In Lucifer’s laboratory, I found my own strength,... It should be said that I have recovered my own power. At first I didn’t understand where this power came from, but then Lucifer’s scientists found out the reason.” While talking, the Poles took out a strip of compression from their trouser pockets. The energy bar is stuffed into the mouth and chewed.

"Superman's muscle activity." Gu Tie's voice is misty and dim from nowhere,

Ed shook his head: "That is the result, not the cause, iron, you must know where the energy for muscle activity comes from."

"Adenine nucleoside triphosphate (atp), this is the knowledge of middle school biology class." The Chinese replied,

"So what is the source of energy for short-term vigorous exercise." The beard asked,

"Atp-cp system, although the absolute value of the energy supplied by the non-lactic acid phosphate system is not large, and the maintenance time is very short, but due to its fast availability of energy, short distance running (40-60m) Running), jumping, throwing, spinning, sprinting or other strenuous exercises that need to be completed within ten seconds, all rely on atp-cp storage as their main energy source." Gu Tie answered patiently,

"What is the source of atp." Ed asked.

" Mitochondria, mitochondria are organelles surrounded by a double layer of highly specialized unit membranes in eukaryotic cells. The main function is to synthesize atp through oxidative phosphorylation and provide energy for various physiological activities of the cell. In addition, mitochondria have My own DNA and genetic system, but the number of genes in the mitochondrial genome is limited. Therefore, mitochondria are just a semi-autonomous organelle... I understand, Ed." Gu Tie's voice became colder, "Your ability is to stimulate The energy of the mitochondria provides the muscle tissue with extraordinary ATP support, so it can repeatedly perform violent actions in a short period of time and burst out amazing power."

The beard snapped his fingers happily: "Correct answer, you guessed it right every time. When I woke up on the test bench, I found that there were hundreds of elves in every cell of my body. Singing, hundreds of millions of cheering and cheering voices were beyond the brain's receiving range. I immediately fainted and woke up after being in a coma for three days. Perhaps many losers were defeated by themselves like this...In short, mitochondria are direct At the orders of my partners, they can do more than just produce atp." He raised his right hand, and a small flame was burning between the thumb and **** of the snapped finger. "The expression of energy is ever-changing. When the defensive mine exploded, I forced a high heat on the surface of my body, which vaporized a layer of epidermal cells and formed a protective layer of high-pressure steam around the skin. I am still a novice, and there are too many interesting abilities that I have not discovered."

"Ah, Ed, this has been the case since that time. Whenever I feel that I recognize you, you show another side that I don't know." Gu Tie's figure walked slowly from the smoke. As he walked, he lowered his head and fiddled with the pistol, "But you can't strengthen every muscle at any time. You can't concentrate faster than a bullet."

"Haha, hahaha..." The Poles suddenly laughed and pointed at the figure that was getting closer and closer: "This trick is too naive, put a projection in front of me, and attacked the moment I shot it. Did you learn your combat literacy in kindergarten?"

"Well, old Ai, if I were you, I would weigh the possibility that this is a real person." Gu Tie's mouth moved, but the voice came from another direction, and he slowly raised the muzzle. Aim at Ed’s forehead,

Ed was stunned for a moment, with a smile on his mouth: "Of course I considered this possibility, and also considered more possibilities. The chain of suspicion is endless, but the judgment can only be'yes' or' No, my choice is...attack."

"Boom."

At the same time as the gunfire sounded, Ed leaped on the ground suddenly, grabbed a handful of gravel with his right hand and threw it into the air. The index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger of his right hand flicked in sequence, and the mitochondria were flexion fingers. The muscle was injected with amazing energy, the afterimage flashed, four crisp sounds burst into the air, and the four pieces of rubble turned into high-speed bullets, slamming through the nearby phantom, the three-dimensional image created by the projector. Distorted, "But you made a mistake, Iron." The Pole's left hand also made the same cracking sound. "The gunshot betrayed your true position. No matter whether you are a phantom or not, only a real person can attack."

"Boom." The pistol fired two more shots. Ed bounced back. Two more smoking bullet holes appeared on the ground. A string of stone bullets from his left hand shot into the depths of the dense forest. The beard glared at his legs, his body turned into a swift arrow and threw in the direction of shooting, "Boom." Two poplar trees with a bowl-thick mouth were brutally knocked off and sat in front of a yellow bush. With Gu Tie bleeding on his chest, he was holding a pistol in his hand, but he couldn't shoot anymore.

"I'm very disappointed, old friend." Ed stopped in front of him and looked down at the pale Chinese. Gu Tie said a blood bubble in his mouth and said weakly, "Old, old Ai...yes I want to tell you something..."

The Poles took a half step back vigilantly: "You are a scheming guy. Even if you are about to die, you can't believe you. See you in the next life, if there is an afterlife in your Chinese faith." He lifted up. The foot stomped heavily on the body on the ground. At this moment, he found a detail,

The trigger of the Glock pistol is covered with an apron, and behind the apron is connected a bow-shaped structure made of tree branches. Gu Tie’s fingers almost overlap with this small mechanism. If you don’t observe carefully, you can’t see it at all. Ed saw a similar mechanism in the jungle warfare course. A heavy object was hung behind the bow-shaped structure as a pendulum. The pendulum drives the bowstring to tighten the apron at the trigger, so that the firearm can be fired irregularly. A simple but sophisticated device to deceive the enemy, this can only show that the dying Gu Tie was not the person who was hit by the stone bullet, but... a phantom,

"Boom."

The phantom turned into an explosion, and the directional grenade exploded thousands of small steel **** shot from howling, unable to protect all vital points for a while, Eddy covered his face with both hands, kicked on the ground with his right foot, and then retreated, using the retreat to eliminate the steel. With the impact of the bomb, Gu Tie’s relaxed voice came: "Bah, the scavenger’s bottle of tomato sauce has expired... I actually took a big sip... Lao Ai, Lao Ai, yours. Mitochondria are indeed very useful, but I have discovered your three weaknesses."

The Poles had no time to talk. His body retreated like a reversing bulldozer. The overwhelming steel **** forced him to retreat. The tall man kept observing the movement around him from the corner of his eye.

"The first weakness, according to the law of conservation of energy, you cannot use unlimited capacity. Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation will consume sugars, fats and amino acids in your body, even if you have a different energy storage capacity from ordinary people. , There is also a consumption limit." Gu Tie’s phantom appeared in front of him, raising a finger,

"Boom." There was loud noise and flames on the left. Ed gritted his teeth and mobilized the mitochondria to defend the left half of the body. However, the skin did not feel any impact. The explosion and flames were just acousto-optic equipment simulations. Illusion,

"The second weakness, according to human anatomy, human beings are actually a body with poor heat dissipation. The heat generated by muscle and internal organ activities can easily accumulate in the body. The mitochondria in your body are hundreds of millions of small motors. The result of heavy work is that the body temperature is too high. If you cool down by sweating, you will lose combat effectiveness due to dehydration in a short time; and if the sweat glands are blocked, the heat cannot be effectively removed, and you will boil your brains, old friend,,, Everyone knows that water-cooled engines are much more efficient than air-cooled engines. How would you choose?"

Gu Tie’s Phantom raised his second finger. Ed had just withdrawn his defense, "Bang." A gunshot came from the left side again, the bullet puffed into his left arm, and the Poles let out a sound. Roaring, before reacting, there was a loud noise on the right side, and the flames rose, Ed slammed on the ground to change direction, shrinking his body to protect the vitals, but it was another realistic feint, the explosion even a blade of grass Not broken,

"It’s simple to make a judgment. What about the continuous two-choice judgments? Do you have the courage to think that it is a phantom? As long as you don’t give you a chance to breathe, what will happen to an overheated engine without fuel replenishment? Ai." The Chinese came with a smile,

Explosions, gunshots, traps, Gu Tie used the power of one person to turn the windbreak forest into a fierce battle zone that is both true and illusion. After four consecutive false explosions, Ed’s patience has reached its limit. He roared and turned his head to The enemy launched an attack, but the fifth explosion at his feet was real. "Boom." A pressure mine temporarily modified with a standard grenade bombarded the huge human body into the air. The shock wave and shrapnel ripped off Ed's leg. Muscles, the Poles screamed and fell heavily on the ground. He didn't get a chance to breathe. A string of submachine gun bullets swept across. Only then did he find that Gu Tie had gradually led him to the three-in-one spoon ambush formation. In the spoon handle area, the forest was full of soldiers' corpses and weapons. A series of real and false attacks made his body almost to its limit. Ed felt that the air was as heavy as mercury, and he could barely breathe. There were countless small mitochondria in his body. The screams of desire and dissatisfaction began to greedily eat his muscles, bones, and blood vessels,

He began to feel fear. This is an emotion he has never had since he became a "son of God",
