San Tian Liang Jiao
Chapter 258 Brothers (15)
The man was tall and large, and his right arm was made of metal, so his speed was naturally slow. Although his momentum was fierce, his attacks were simple and direct, not difficult to dodge.
Under the effect of his skills, Feng Bujue had a huge advantage in dynamic vision, reaction, and speed. In his eyes, the opponent's movements were too slow and too simple.
"Are you one of the five mechanical legion lieutenants?" Feng Bujue asked as he dodged the attack. In this effortless situation, he had not given up the possibility of communicating with the other party.
"Hmph... asking the obvious," the man said, missing the attack, turning around and throwing another punch.
"I don't know what you think..." Feng Bujue maintained his high-speed movement, his breathing not disturbed at all, "But you have to believe me, I have no malice at the moment. As long as you stop, I will never attack you."
"No malice?" The man snorted coldly. "The guy who slaughtered my subordinates with the Xing Clan people now says such things, thinking I'll fall for it!" He shouted violently, changed his attack method, swung his arm, and charged with his body.
"If I can't reason with you, there's nothing I can do..." Feng Bujue looked at the approaching figure, "Then I'll just use a skill (he said this because he didn't know what skill he would use), to teach you a lesson."
In Feng Bujue's opinion, this enemy was only good at one thing: his mechanical arm. Apart from that, he was just a little stronger than a normal person. As long as he didn't confront him head-on, his chances of winning were over 90%.
"Take this!" Feng Bujue instantly appeared behind the other party, throwing a punch, and the title skill was activated.
He aimed his attack at the upper right side of the man's back, near the shoulder. This part was not a vital point, and even if the randomly selected skill was powerful, and the fist penetrated the opponent's body, it would not hurt major organs. If he was lucky, he could even disable his right arm.
Feng Bujue's move was obviously merciful. He thought to himself, "Even if I take this guy's life, it won't do me any good. Since he won't listen, I'll beat him until he loses his fighting ability, and then try to communicate with him."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Feng Bujue heard an unprecedented system prompt: 【The skill "Purgatory Peerless Exploding Heat Wave Cannon" that you randomly activated has exhausted all current stamina, and the survival value loss caused by overloading the skill is 50%.】
"Hey! What's this!" Feng Bujue was shocked. After he had restored his health in the bathroom on the second floor, he lost 15% when he fell. Then, he used Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique, which drained a lot more. Now, hearing the prompt that his survival value was reduced by 50% in one breath caught him off guard, and he quickly stopped using Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique.
Of course, he didn't need to maintain this skill anymore, because the enemy in front of him had been bombarded into dust by a devastating shockwave, and not a drop of blood was left.
This was not the end. The remaining force after destroying the target continued to move forward and hit a wall in the red room. That was the wall facing the door. Theoretically, this wall could not be destroyed because the space behind the wall was beyond the scope of the scenario map.
As a result... even this wall shattered. The seemingly solid stone wall disintegrated in an instant. Then, the strong light from the collision of energy suddenly lit up, blinding Feng Bujue.
When the light dissipated, he saw that there was a large hole with a radius of more than one meter in the wall in front of him. A large amount of white data streams surged in the broken place. Those flowing lights were slowly repairing the pierced edge of the scenario, restoring it to the appearance of a stone wall.
"What kind of skill is this?" Feng Bujue exclaimed. After his stamina was exhausted, he felt weak for a moment and sat down on the ground. "No way... can a level 27 player theoretically launch such an amazing attack?"
He was right, that was how it was.
In the description of the skill 【Take This】, there was a line that read: ——The effect of the randomly selected skill will not exceed the player's level and ability limits.
In other words, a player who was level 27, had the same physical skills and Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique state as Feng Bujue, and had such a skill, could completely launch the attack just now.
However, in the entire Thriller Paradise, so far, only Devouring Heaven Ghost骁 could make a similar attack before level 30.
By the way, this skill that Feng Bujue randomly obtained at this moment had already been obtained by someone in the server, but it was a consumable version.
【Name: Purgatory Peerless Exploding Heat Wave Cannon】
【Skill Card Attributes: Active Skill, disappears after one use】
【Skill Category: Fighting】
【Effect: Instantly beats any enemy into dust】
【Consumption: Stamina 2500】
【Learning Conditions: Fighting Specialization A】
【Remarks: King-style Qi Gong Technique profound meaning, one of the strongest skills in the fighting system, with miraculous destructive power.】
Usually, players below level 30 were unlikely to reach the learning condition of Fighting Specialization A. Even top experts only stopped at B-level.
But there were a very few people... who were exceptions. In their normal state, their physical skills were comparable to or even better than Feng Bujue's when he activated Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique. Only these monsters could raise their Fighting Specialization to A before level 30 to learn such skills.
This was not a matter of game time, nor was it because these guys were special forces soldiers or martial artists in real life. In the end... this was talent.
"I just met someone who could talk, but I activated such a skill..." Feng Bujue could only sigh at his luck. When he didn't need to kill his opponent, he randomly got such a heaven-defying move. "Even the scenario map has a gap, that's too exaggerated..."
Since things had come to this, Feng Bujue didn't dwell on it too much. His curiosity quickly shifted elsewhere. He turned his gaze to the wall that had not yet been completely restored, carefully observing the white data streams, trying to get a glimpse of the world "outside the scenario."
At this moment, suddenly... a human face emerged from it.
Judging from the outline, it was a man's head. White data streams covered his face like a glowing mask, making it impossible for Feng Bujue to see his face clearly.
"Hey, kid... do you know what you're doing?" the light-faced man said. "With your current strength, if you cross the 'rift,' you'll be torn apart by the data storm in less than three minutes."
When Feng Bujue heard the voice, he was stunned at first. Two seconds later, he found the owner of the voice in a corner of his memory loft. "It's you..."
"Heh... it's me. I left in a hurry last time, and I haven't announced my name yet." The other party replied with a smile, "I am now a level 2 derivative, k2-Chi Tie. Long time no see, Feng Bujue." As he greeted him, he raised his hand and made a strange gesture towards Brother Jue. In an instant, Feng Bujue's stamina, which had been reduced to zero, recovered to 50 points, which made him feel a little better, at least enough to stand up and speak.
"Let me go over and take a look." Feng Bujue stood up and pushed forward, reaching out to push Chi Tie away.
"Kid, are you listening to people?" Chi Tie said, his entire arm wrapped in a light curtain extending from the wall. He held down Feng Bujue's shoulder with one hand, preventing him from moving forward, and said, "I'm saving you."
"Three minutes is fine, I want to take a look." Although Feng Bujue had not given up, the other party easily held him down with one hand, preventing him from taking a step.
"Ha... I knew you would say that." Chi Tie smiled. "Unfortunately, I can't let you do that. Over here, a few 'big shots' seem to care about you quite a bit. You can't mess around at the cost of your life. Also, I want to fight you again. Of course, we have to compete on a relatively fair basis. And you now are just too weak. This data is vulnerable in front of me."
As Chi Tie spoke, the data streams around him accelerated the repair process, and the hole quickly shrank. "The inner world is not a place for sightseeing. For you players, it is a hundred times more dangerous than a scenario." He released his hand and retracted his arm into that world. At the same time, his head was also retreating. "Feng Bujue, if you want to admire the scenery over here, first comprehend 【Soul Intent】. When you can observe this virtual world from another perspective, the real game will officially begin."
After he finished speaking, his face completely retreated into the unknown space on the opposite side. The data stream quickly closed at this moment, restoring the wall to its original appearance.
Feng Bujue stared at the wall for a full ten minutes. Chi Tie's words contained too much information, which he needed to digest slowly.
"Beautiful..." After a long while, Feng Bujue said with a happy face, "This setting is absolutely awesome, making people can't wait to get in touch with the later content of the game as soon as possible."
The accident of killing an unknown NPC with one punch had been thrown out of his mind. At this moment, Feng Bujue's thoughts were completely elsewhere. He even felt that... it didn't matter how the scenario ended because he had not come in vain after experiencing that scene just now.
Walking out of the red room, Feng Bujue rested in place for a while, allowing his survival value to naturally recover to 30%, and his stamina value came to around 160. Before the scenario determined that he was playing passively, he set off again and pushed open the yellow iron door.
The iron bar had been destroyed, so he had to take the risk with his remaining 30% of his life, praying in his heart that there would not be a battle in each of the six rooms. If that were the case, he who could not use consumables would probably be in grave danger.
Fortunately, there seemed to be no danger in the yellow room. It was just a room similar to a chemical warehouse. There were many iron racks and glass cabinets in the room, filled with reagents, powders, and other miscellaneous raw materials. The properties and containers of these items varied. The only thing they had in common was that they were all garbage. Because no matter which one Feng Bujue picked up, he could not see the item description. This meant that these things were all useless to the player, just decorations.
Feng Bujue searched for a while and did not find any valuable props. Just as he was about to leave the room, another CG was triggered.
…………
"Brother... if this goes on, we will be arrested sooner or later... no, we will be killed!" Andrew said to Arthur excitedly.
"There's nothing to worry about." Arthur stood with his back to his brother who was standing at the door, skillfully selecting materials from the glass cabinet and putting them into a small trolley next to him. "We've killed everyone who should be killed, and the rest have been locked up. Didn't the Royal Artificer Corps also lose to us?"
"But..."
"Don't say such stupid things anymore. We have no way back." Arthur interrupted Andrew. "You said that you would help me find a way to become human no matter what. Now that things have come to this, even if we repent and fear, we can't wash away the blood of those people on our hands." He said calmly, "Anyway, it has progressed to the final stage. In addition to the two armed alchemists who were killed on the spot, and the bounty hunter named 'Terrifying Magpie', we still have an alchemist and five mechanical legion lieutenants on hand, right? That's enough... According to the old rules, lock them up separately, let them enjoy nine days of 'special meals,' and then experiment."
He paused, and then said, "At this stage, ordinary experimental subjects are of no value. We need at least a bounty hunter-level guy to make progress. And these six people have come just in time. With them, we can not go out for two whole months, and after two months, the limelight will be over."
As Arthur said this, he had already taken all the things he needed. He turned around and pushed the cart towards the door, "Think of it positively, maybe our refining will be successful before we use up all six experimental subjects?"
"Even so, they will eventually have to die, right..." Andrew asked with a frown.
"Yes." Arthur's answer was chilling. "We can't let them go... However, the remaining people will not have to go through the pain of the experiment. They can die more quickly." He pushed the cart past his brother and left the room.
…………
"The purpose of that refining... is to transform Arthur, who is a Xing Clan, into an ordinary human..." Feng Bujue muttered, walked out of the yellow room, and walked towards the blue iron door next door. "The previous video should be the result of their refining. It's hard to say whether Arthur finally became human, but Andrew must have suffered a considerable degree of damage..." He casually pushed open the door of the blue room. "Perhaps Arthur concealed the cost of this refining and tricked his brother into bearing it for him? Or perhaps... even Arthur didn't know it would turn out like that."
"Well... judging from the opening CG, it seems that both of these assumptions can be established. After all, they are brothers. Whether it is intentional or unintentional, Arthur will feel somewhat guilty after turning into that situation."
The blue room should be a prison cell, and a special one. The walls, ceiling, and floor were all painted with magic arrays. There was no bed in the room, but there was an iron pillar in each of the four corners, and there was a string of shackles next to each pillar.
"Those prisoners with combat power higher than ordinary people must be locked in this room..." Feng Bujue came to a corner, observed with a magnifying glass, and found that there were magic arrays identical to those on the wall on the iron pillars and the chains of the shackles. "The magic array should be able to prevent those people from escaping with violence, but..." He lay on the ground and checked, confirming that there were no traces of food left on the ground. "There is no feeding port, and no plastic bucket, and there is a smell of urine in all four corners... Well... in that case, the people locked here have no food or drink, and are chained in the corners. After they are half-dead from hunger, they will be taken to other ordinary prison cells and served with 'special meals.' At that time, they will have no power to escape."
Feng Bujue walked back and forth in the room, stopping for a few seconds from time to time, trying to see if he could trigger a CG again. After five minutes, he didn't gain anything, so he used the tapping search method again...
Unexpectedly, this time it really worked.
The four iron pillars in the room were all as thick as bowls and covered with rust. At first glance, there was nothing unusual except for the magic arrays on them. Feng Bujue tapped inch by inch with a pipe wrench and found a gap on one of the iron pillars. It was a section facing the wall, more than one meter above the ground. That part dented in when lightly hit.
Seeing this, Feng Bujue added some force and smashed a small hole. Then he continued to pry and knock, enlarging the hole to the size of a fist, and then reached in and touched the prop hidden inside.
【Name: Artificial Eye】
【Type: Scenario Related】
【Quality: Normal】
【Function: Unknown】
【Whether it can be taken out of this scenario: Yes】
【Remarks: A very realistic eyeball】
"Okay, next room." After finding the item, Feng Bujue left the blue room and walked towards the black iron door opposite the corridor.
This time, after pushing the door, he did not go in, because the black room was black inside...
The interiors of the three rooms, red, yellow, and blue, were shrouded in colored lights of unknown origin. The black room was also the same. The entire room was pitch black, and the lights in the corridor could not shine in at all. The door frame was like being covered by a black cloth.
Feng Bujue was hesitating whether there would be any danger in going in. Unexpectedly, laughter came from the room.
The laughter was very strange. The voice of the person who was laughing was very sharp, but he laughed very heartily.
For example, this contrast was like Lin Chi-ling singing Heroes' Song angrily...
"Crap..." Feng Bujue jumped back violently, "What kind of monster!" Without thinking, he sacrificed the death poker, ready to face the enemy.
At this time, the "black" in the room moved like a receding tide, gathering towards the middle, and the lights in the corridor shone in.
Feng Bujue looked inside from the door and found that the volume of this room was exactly the same as the previous three rooms, but it was empty. And the main color of this room, that is, those "darknesses", had gathered together like living things at this moment.
Before long, the darkness solidified into a black figure with a physical body, standing in the center of the room. And his appearance, outline, and posture were very similar to a singer who had passed away many years ago...
