Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 187: Say the most embarrassing things in the most embarrassing tone (5400)
"The beast of a thousand stars? Why did you suddenly encounter such an exaggerated thing?"
Although he was shocked, Ian suppressed the change of his expression with his rich experience, as if it was just an ordinary guard.
Although he doesn't know what kind of powerful kindling creature the 'Beast of Thousand Stars' is in essence, he can tell from the long string of 'warnings' and 'hints' on the silver chip that are more numerous than swarms and demons. How dangerous is the so-called fire seed derivative of Shiyuan Hive!
You know, even if it is one of the prototypes of the ether crystal dragon, the super cosmic creature "ether dragon" is nothing more than a "rare wild animal" that needs to be protected in the eyes of the star god, and the "void evil" To put it bluntly, it is a cockroach or a diseased floating mosquito...
But this beast of a thousand stars is enough to be called "a certain degree of danger"!
(Fallen empires, fire creatures, semi-independent derivatives... Interesting, is this Elger Qingyue in front of me an unlucky guy who was swallowed and assimilated by the beast of a thousand stars, or is it a lunatic researched by the capital of knowledge? Are you trying to cultivate your own 'Beast of Thousand Stars'?)
(The semi-independent derivative should be the key!)
At this moment, Ian's eyes on the black-haired scholar in front of him became playful.
If it is on Earth, Ian will definitely acquiesce to the former possibility.
Elger Qingyue is obviously an unlucky guy who was swallowed and replaced by an alien monster. Like every sci-fi or horror movie, this monster will lurk in the human research institute and create a bigger A more terrible disaster.
But... this is Terra!
Compared to alien monsters, Terra natives are more terrifying!
"Before answering your question."
Ian raised his hand to signal Isengard and Siou to step back, and he took a step forward to confront Elger who was suspended in mid-air.
The white-haired boy smiled naturally: "I have a question to ask you."
"Elger, have you been like this from the 'beginning', or have you just not learned how to imitate humans?"
Actually, Ian's question was very abrupt.
Elger's current form is exactly the bloodline he announced to the public, the "Hidden Cloud Phantom Octopus". Resting, it will transform into clouds in the daytime to look for prey in the sky. It can freely transform into any kind of celestial phenomenon, taking advantage of the rain, sunlight, and fog to sneak into the city and devour people and animals.
This is a low-energy level, but at a high-energy level, the octopus will gradually transform into a sub-virtual life, or in other words, it was originally a kind of virtual life, but it was only caused by the disaster of falling from the sky. Due to the changes in the environment, this monster had to come to the material world to survive. And at that time, what it devoured was not only the flesh, but also the illusion in people's hearts.
There used to be several coastal fishing villages, as well as a medium-sized port, which were dragged into the void by the greedy phantom octopus king. Tens of thousands of people in the city quietly left in dreams, and what remained in the world was nothing but a piece of human skin and Brittle bones.
The ability that Elger revealed just now, whether it is tentacles surprise attack or mental interference, is one of the innate abilities of the magic octopus... Theoretically speaking, Ian can't discover Elger's true identity, and then Ask about the sentence that is unclear to others.
Even Anfa's doubts are only due to Elger's abnormal behavior and the lack of proof as the leader of the team-even if she doubts, she can never be like Ian, suspecting that the other party came from a That's how it started.
But 'Elger' could understand.
This scholar from the City of Knowledge who has been marked as the "beast of a thousand stars" squinted his eyes. Facing Ian's question that he directly identified himself, he showed a cold smile instead: 【Interesting, this That's the question I want to ask you...]
【Ian Yinfeng, I was very curious about you. If all the rumors and exaggerated narrations about you are regarded as reality, then your speed of progress and technology research and development has already reached 89% of the efficiency of the master craftsman Friedrich, and Friedrich had an entire knowledge All support, even the four major orthodox churches are secretly providing assistance, but you only have the support of the last son of the Ellen family, and a small-scale investment from the royal family... Even if you add Long Island's optimism and the friendship of the young master of the Ember Department, Your output efficiency also surpasses that of master craftsmen with the same level of resources in theory]
So saying, 'Elger' stared at the white-haired boy in front of him, and he made a cold judgment: [In other words, if you estimate it from the most exaggerated angle, your intelligence level is the limit of theoretical human beings 295%, which is 3.51~3.79 times that of the great master Friedrich. Even if you add the weight of rumors that you may be a prophet, your intelligence level is 180% of the human limit]
【Although it is an exaggerated estimate, there are so many miracles and accidents that have happened to you. And according to our intelligence, you were only a smart child before the age of eleven. Although you surpassed 98% of human beings, there is still a considerable gap from the theoretical limit of human intelligence... But at the age of eleven After that, your performance will become more and more exaggerated]
【Until now, you appeared in front of me and used up to 70 standard units of source quality to defeat my attack which used about 300 source quality...Although you behaved normally, you didn't seem to think about it at all. However, the ability to suppress more than nine hundred kinds of source quality changes in my attack in an instant should not be the level that a seventeen-year-old Bai Zhimin youth should possess. Not even a prophet]
The purple mental interference in the eyes of the black-haired young man dissipated, he narrowed his eyes, and calmly threw back the question Ian asked himself before: [So, this is the problem]
【Ian, have you been like this from the 'beginning', or have you just not learned how to imitate humans? 】
"...Your attention to me has reached the point of frightening."
When Elger first told the story, Ian was still trying to find the flaws in the opponent's source quality, but as the opponent's speech became more terrifying, and he couldn't find the flaws for the time being, he also shifted his attention to the opponent's own analysis.
As soon as he heard it, the young Bai Zhimin frowned.
Obviously, the capital of learning has collected information on him to an extremely terrifying and in-depth level. Ian dares to say that even the capital doesn't care about him that much... So what's the problem? Why does the capital of knowledge value itself so much?
Do they think that they may be the second master craftsman, who can forcefully elevate the original primitive civilization of Terra and accelerate it to the level where it can compete with the civilization of the previous era in some fields, leading the second time? Sublimation revolution?
If that's the case...they've got the right guy!
Ian finally understood that 'Elger' and himself and the others did not meet by chance at all - he just followed him because he had collected a lot of information about Ian and was puzzled.
Moreover, regardless of whether the "beast of a thousand stars" in front of him is Elger or not, he has a great relationship with the school of knowledge.
——Is this group of lunatics on Terra really raising beasts of thousands of stars? ! It's almost the same as raising Void Breeds in the Avak Lab, or raising ether crystal dragons in the South China Sea Labyrinth!
These Terrans are almost done!
Even Ian is a little bit hard to hold back. He guessed the madness of these Terrans with the greatest malice, but he didn't expect that the other party perfectly fit this phenomenon, and even slightly exceeded it
As for the final battle...
(Is there a lot of more than 900 changes?)
Ian murmured in his heart: (After practicing meditation with Adalbert, the usual level of mental offensive and defensive discussions is at this level. If it is an actual combat, it will definitely be higher... To perform according to the standard?)
"Is Ian so powerful?"
At this moment, before Ian could react, the trio on the side were surprised first.
Xio looked at the two Ian Elger who were staring at each other but said nothing, and couldn't help whispering: "Speaking of which, what is the theoretical limit of human beings? It's only less than three times the limit. No big deal, right?"
"What do you think of exceeding the limit? That's the limit. It's not that you feel tired or reach the limit, but the 'upper limit' that you try to reach is the limit!"
Anfa couldn't help complaining about her friend who was thinking too simply, but when she focused her eyes on the two people who were confronting each other, she felt quite agreeable in her heart: "Besides, it doesn't matter whether this Elgor is the real Elgor or not." ...He is really right, Ian is indeed the kind of existence beyond the limit, even a genius who is too exaggerated for a prophet."
"It is precisely because of this that I made up my mind in Nanling to invest in him."
As for Isengarde...
"Ian is so powerful? Nine hundred changes in an instant? I have at most about a hundred, and this is already the best in the general evaluation criteria..." The blond boy stared at his hand in disbelief He muttered to himself: "Then how much water did he use when he was practicing against me... No, it's not water at all, did he blow the sea to me?!"
For a while, Isengard, who thought he was a genius, was hit hard.
——Actually, it’s just that you haven’t practiced meditation... It’s normal for the meditation to change five or six times after you practice it.
Ian also noticed the loss of his friend, so he quickly sent a message to comfort him with a light message.
【You are a monster, there is no doubt about it】
Elger doesn't want to fight Ian at this moment—or, in other words, he just wanted to test Ian from the beginning, and based on his understanding of Ian, he knows that if he doesn't have the intention of killing him Thought and determination, then it is absolutely impossible to test out the slightest bit of Ian's true ability: [Although I don't know why, you haven't recognized your own essence yet]
[But you will understand eventually. You will understand that you and us are companions with the same goal]
"Stop making riddles." Ian frowned slightly, he really felt a little confused now-a fire monster said that he was of the same kind as him?
Then you are also a tinder? Earth Tinder?
Are you kidding, if he were the fire seed of the earth, he would have already opened the database in his brain and started crushing the world of Terra directly, why would he need to use the prophet and the silver chip to make such trouble!
For this unknown riddle, Ian can only seriously warn: "I do not discriminate against you as a monster, but if you really want to cooperate and become my companion, you have to attack me first." Apologize to me."
"Also, if you don't speak well, I will draw my sword."
[You who have forgotten your essence, you don’t need me to apologize]
For Ian's warning of "don't say it's unpredictable", Elger sneered and said: [What's more, the reason why I sneak attack is only because you are too strong. It can even be said that in order to make up for the gap between you and me, my sneak attack is not a shameful thing, but it is just barely enough for me to have the ability to fight with you now]
Using the most cowardly attitude and saying the most cowardly words, when Ian and his party were still in a daze, not knowing whether Elger was admitting cowardice or threatening, the black-haired scholar's waterfall-like long hair suddenly burst out, Then it turned into a form like the wings of a giant bird to wrap its whole body.
Immediately afterwards, Elger's figure blurred, and his whole body became translucent, obviously trying to escape into the void.
"Riddler, right? Run after the riddle?"
After being blown away with the most ridiculous attitude and the most riddle words, Ian laughed back from anger, and Ian reacted very simply.
At some time, a pitch-black long sword was already tightly held in his hand.
Then, in an instant, Ian completed the actions of stepping forward, adjusting his breath, swinging his arms and chopping, and swung a wave of sword energy like lightning.
No, not an adjective. It is true that 'lightning' has turned into 'tide water', and the interlacing and friction of the incomparably thick water system source material has become a lightning storm, turning into an unstoppable wave, rushing towards Erg!
【Oh? 】
If it is an ordinary sublimation sword skill, no matter how powerful it is, it will not be able to hit Elger who has transformed into a virtual state. 'Raw Ether'!
This power, which has the ability to affect the dual phases of both the virtual world and the material world, hit Elger's body with a slightly surprised expression.
The thin robe was cut open, the strange translucent flesh was crushed, and gray-black blood spewed out. Ian grasped the most precise timing and showed 80% of his strength with a sword. In an instant, Elger, who happened to be difficult to dodge because he was changing his form, was hit hard!
This sword directly cut the black-haired scholar from his right shoulder to his left pelvis, creating a wound that crushed his lungs and severed his spine!
—If Elger really has these things.
【I even forgot...before you became a well-known researcher...you were a genius swordsman who could pass through the South China Sea Labyrinth almost without injury...]
After taking this blow abruptly, Elger's face remained unchanged at all—but his lower body turned into a mass of dark, squirming, shapeless flesh and blood...and these flesh and blood were not wasted.
Ian was planning to chase after him, but Ian, who left Elger behind, suddenly felt a chill.
It's not the vision of prediction, nor the silver chip, it's just because of the physical instinct he has practiced for many years, and the chill he sensed!
Buzz! The black flesh and blood disintegrated in an instant, and it turned into dark chains of flames that filled the sky. These chains of flames were composed of the spiritual fire of the void, burning wisdom and memory. They were like thousands of the most dexterous and swift snakes, moving toward Ian bites and comes!
——This is how the thousand-star beast preys on other people's thoughts and memories, and assimilates other lives? !
——Don't let these things spread!
In the first moment, Ian knew the horror of the flame snakes in front of him. He showed a dignified look, abruptly stopped chasing Erger, and slashed hundreds of swords in an instant!
This is the skill of "Sword Net" that he has mastered after practicing dozens of times with Qing Chao. According to the subordinate who basically knows nothing except swordsmanship, he can even use this swordsmanship to fight against the sea tide. Get in the way of a school of sardines!
Suddenly, a storm of sword blades was set off, and the spiritual flames that had faded all over the sky suddenly exploded and then dissipated——Ian used pure swordsmanship to smash all those rushing towards him, Isengard and others Flame flow chain!
Undoubtedly, Ian once again blocked the enemy's attack without injury, but Elger, who decisively abandoned half of his body, also completely escaped into the void.
【Ian, your biggest weakness is that you want to pursue the best. This is the flaw of the prophet. Your idea of protecting all your companions without injury allows me to escape instead.】
His last voice resounded faintly in the Scarlet Garden: [As for now, let's keep each other's identities secret]
【My...same kind】
After speaking, Elger's virtual fluctuations suddenly disappeared, and he left this area impressively.
"Who is the same as you?"
Ian put his sword back into its sheath solemnly, and said, "I'm a good teacher, not a riddle!"
But Elger obviously can't hear, and won't be coming back.
"Ian, that guy probably isn't the real Elger."
After the brief confrontation and battle, Anfa, who was a little ashamed, stepped forward and apologized: "I should have helped you just now...but your timing of fighting and attacking is too fast, although I can keep up, But fear hinders your actions..."
"There's no apology for that, that guy was coming after me." Ian waved his hand, even if it was a real dragon, it might not be able to please it when facing the derivative body of the thousand-star beast.
After all, the other party is unique, a fire creature with the prefix "Fallen Empire" in the silver chip!
It's normal for Anfa and the others to find no chance to support them. In fact, if it wasn't for Elger's sudden departure, Ian wouldn't even be able to find a way to kill him.
At this moment, Ian's heart was actually filled with all kinds of doubts—he couldn't figure out why Elger came to communicate with him at the risk of exposing himself as a beast of a thousand stars, and said that he and him were of the same kind... ...Although Ian didn't know what the Beast of Thousand Stars was before, it was obviously a secret that could not be discovered by other forces, or even the Four Orthodox Churches!
Even his own silver chip might be safer than this news... Then again, could it be that Elger mistook himself for a 'monster' because of the silver chip?
But that's impossible. Ian can sense that Elger can't sense the specific situation of his own body. The monster he talks about is actually his soul, or something like his personality.
"I was tracking in the void just now."
At this moment, Xiou also ended her half-sleepwalking state. She came back to her senses and told Ian and others the results of her observations seriously: "Everyone, the direction Elger is fleeing to...is ours. Destination abyss!"
"Maybe he just wants to enter the subspace maze first!"
"Then let's chase after it?" Isengard said, noticing Ian's frowning expression at the moment, he approached and comforted him: "If you don't understand the problem for a while, don't think about it, just go to the abyss together Catch it, with our means, are you afraid that you won't be able to ask the question?"
"That's the truth." Shaking his head and recovering from his contemplation, Ian sighed and put his mind away from the mysterious Ergo.
Then, he made a rather important decision: "Everyone, I think it's time."
Ian raised his hand and signaled everyone to look at him. He calmly said, "I have decided to act alone under a false identity for a while from now on!"
"Anfa, Siou, and Isengard. Just follow what we originally discussed."
"Glenknight Mahdi, it's time to appear!"
Ask for a monthly pass~ The false identity will appear again, now you can let go
