Chapter 36 The Phoenix Sky and Mythical Creatures

Countless winged people, birds, beasts, and giant birds gathered in a dense mass, like a black cloud focused by the god of death, coming from the southern sky.

"The defensive zone was breached, and the Yishou clan rushed over."

In the small town, screams and screams became one, and the cries of men and women resounded through the sky. With the chaotic scene, it reminded people of the end of the world.

Suddenly, with a yell, the entire sky was blazing, and from the ground, red clouds and mist spewed out, quickly covering the entire sky.

Huoshaoyun moved from bottom to top at an extremely fast speed, directly colliding with the countless black clouds gathered.

The flying object that collided with Hongxia, whether it was a giant bird or a winged man, instantly lost control and fell straight down.

In the lens, the dense black dots fell down, making one's scalp numb.

A giant bird more than three meters long fell into a huge crater, but the fatal injury was only a long arrow that pierced through the eye.

Those terrifying behemoths were attacked by the red light array in the air, like a swarm of flies hit by an electric grid, falling densely.

But after zooming in the lens, it was clear that it was not red clouds at all, but an aggregate of long arrows, flying arrows, and flying stones wrapped in light red aura!

The camera zoomed in. Although most of the bows and arrows missed, there were always a few long arrows with irregular trajectories, which hit the most threatening large creatures fiercely.

At the point of origin of the red clouds, on a roof, a tall woman exposed her bandaged right shoulder, holding a bow and looking into the distance.

Seeing that the sky in the south has been cleared and the line of defense gradually stabilized, he lowered his longbow again.

"Is this something humans can do?! Satellite laser arrays are not so outrageous!"

While the rabbit reassessed the standard of combat power in this world, Jiang Fengyin smiled and turned on the display on the watch.

"This should be regarded as my famous battle that year. After the war, I won the honorary title of 'Phoenix Sky', which is probably used to describe my fighting style that fills the sky without leaving room. At the peak, I was in During the burst period of up to 1 minute, it can be regarded as a volley of 10 quasi-mythical shooters."

The calm tone reveals full confidence. There is no reason not to be proud of this kind of strength far surpassing his peers.

How did you do it?Probably the next scene.

The player has automatically switched to the next scene, this time it is not a distant view, the tall stands and the arena seem to be a special shooting range.

Miss Yinzi, who was completely different from now, appeared on the stage. She held three bows and looked ahead from a distance, with a faint aura flowing between her foreheads.

Yes, the three bows are right, just like Nezha in the myth with three heads and six arms, the eight-armed Jiang Fengyin still has two hands free to hold a large tower shield.

And then, there were three longbows that were fully charged, and they shot up to the sky.

"Unrestrained soaring eagle."

The camera tracks the long arrows and draws arcs in the sky, but it seems that the trajectories are wrong, the high ones are too high, the low ones are too low, and one slips down, all of them are about to miss the target.

Suddenly, the three arrows fell or floated up strangely, re-corrected their trajectory, and after a short gliding, pierced the target fiercely.

"3km target penetration, 5km target penetration, 10km target penetration."

With the sound of the mechanical commentary from the loudspeaker, the camera ended here, and in front of Lan Mengqi was Sister Yinzi's playful smile.

"Well, is this really Miss Yinzi? I don't mean that, but I feel, a little, a little different? It's a little bit like"

Regardless of the difference in appearance, the female archer with the ponytail inside has sharp eyes and a confident and serious expression. Although there is a smile on the corner of her mouth when shooting, she really enjoys the cruel sneer of the battle.

"It's a bit like Yingzi? Oh, it's a bit like that. It's normal for children to imitate their parents, but sometimes it's a headache to be too rigid. Yingzi was not like this before. He liked to laugh then."

The Yinzi sister on the screen is an out-and-out Valkyrie, the smiling Yinzi sister is a bit silly now, but she looks like a young woman who is obsessed with TV dramas and shopping Uh, as evidenced by the pile of shopping lists and TV drama channel VIPs, It's not just "like".

Of course, Sister Yinzi took out the past videos, not just to arouse the rabbit's interest in the genre, some things must be clearly explained to the new disciples at the beginning.

"Do you think it is necessary for me, who can twist the trajectory of the bow and arrow at will, to practice 'folding'?"

Now, the rabbit doesn't understand again, isn't this a trick of the genre, isn't it forcing myself to learn it from the beginning.

"No, I didn't develop it. I'm not so bored to develop archery skills that are useless to me. I did learn it later, but from the beginning, this is the archery technique developed by Yingzi (borrowing from other genres), It is used to imitate my ability to distort the trajectory of arrows, trying to master my more advanced archery skills."

As she spoke, Miss Yinzi's expression became more and more strange.

"His filial piety to inherit the genre is quite touching, but sometimes I wonder if he is too powerful. My signature long-range shot is based on twisting and adjusting the trajectory of the arrow all the way. It has become a super-focused calculation. First, it calculates factors such as wind speed, trajectory, opponent's dodge, etc., and then a one-time long-range sniper has the same name and similar effect, but the internal and usage are completely different. It stands to reason It's time to change the name."

And this is not a single case. Xie Ying spent a lot of energy to preserve many high-level archery skills in his own way, and also kept all the names of Sister Yinzi back then, including "Appreciating Hundreds of Flowers at Night", "Marrying Thousands of Colors", etc. Clothes" are obviously feminine names.

Hearing this, the rabbit fell into deep thought. In the short time since she came here, she seemed to have encountered a word that was very suitable to describe this kind of behavior. The one that Zheng Li said several times

"Mommy?"

"Pfft, why are you saying the same thing as Zheng Li? Don't be overheard by Ying Zi. He will really fight you hard, but maybe he won't. After all, he is the happiest person to find you. "

The happiest is him?Then he still yells at me and calls me a fool? !The rabbit was full of disbelief, this kind of happiness, could it be the kind from the rabbit pot restaurant?

"Hey, just forgive him. He has no bad intentions towards you. If you encounter trouble in the future, you can go to him directly. No matter how big or small, as long as it doesn't violate the law, he will probably risk his life to help you. On the contrary, you'd better Beware of little Zheng Li, although he won't dig a big pit to bury you, but a small pit, a mother shouldn't speak ill of the child, anyway you can trust the two seniors, they will be the most reliable family members in the future."

There were some words on her lips, but Sister Yinzi didn't say them in the end.

"Yingzi is too serious. He has always felt guilty about being a senior brother but not being able to inherit all my archery and bow skills. Now that he has finally found a junior junior sister who may inherit it, how could he be unhappy? How could he not be his own sister? treat."

"It's Xiao Zhengli, who has been making up his mind in this regard. He has been looking for it for more than two years, and he was lucky to find it before the deadline. Now he will definitely protect you as a treasure."

"Oh, back then, Yingzai was a cheerful, honest, and good boy. Although little Zheng Li loved to cry and was afraid of the dark, he was also a good boy who longed for the warmth of his family. How did he become a social animal with a gloomy face and an extreme inner self, and at the same time, he became a nonsense one? Little fox, is there something wrong with my education method?"

Don't say such things, so as not to put too much pressure on the little rabbit.

"Hope, there's still time."

Running in the hot water, hugging the soft rabbit, the excited Sister Yin clicked on the next video, hoping to make the rabbit more interested in her archery.

Interest is the best mentor, and it is better than anything else to complete the inheritance as soon as possible.

But soon, she found that the rabbit's attention was not on the video, and Lan Mengqi always subconsciously looked at her shoulders and waist.

"Oh, curious that I am different from before? I can show you, but don't be scared."

There was nothing to hide from the new family members, so Sister Yinzi stood up with a smirk, turned around, and showed her back to her apprentice.

"what."

This scene really scared the rabbit a little bit, this is what she felt uncoordinated from the beginning.

Not to mention the terrible scars covering most of her back. After all, they are obviously old wounds that have already scarred. What really makes her uncomfortable are those seemingly deformed limbs and organs.

On the smooth jade back, there are small hands smaller than a baby, and wings that have shrunk into a ball.

Lan Mengqi counted subconsciously, there were three pairs of arms and three pairs of wings.

The little hands are concentrated on the back and waist, but there is a pair of small wings in the center of the back.

If you look carefully, there are obviously smaller small wings on the thighs and arms, one on each limb, and they are usually hidden in the wide sleeves.

It's a little scary at first glance, but after careful observation, it is found that these organs are not deformed and distorted.

on the contrary.In addition to being too small, the structure is extremely complete, the appearance is small and white, and it is smooth to the touch, a bit like a toy, and a bit cute.

"After failing to attack the mythical creature, my soul body was seriously injured again, and I couldn't heal. I am now a torn pocket, unable to produce spiritual energy supply. Naturally, all the spiritual organs have shrunk, and the spiritual blade has almost disappeared. "

Smiling and speaking, among the simplest words, it is indeed the most desperate situation for a sword master.

"Uh, don't worry, it's still too far away from you. I took the wrong path back then. Don't follow me in the direction of the multi-armed shooter. That squeezes the body too much, and because of the obvious mutation of the limbs, the mythical creature Barriers to advancement are too high.”

What is the difference between a mythical creature and an ordinary sword master with top combat power?In fact, if you only look at combat power, the difference is really not that big. Even among the top 30 players, more than half are not even quasi-mythical creatures, just ordinary extraordinary.

Compared with rookies, top sword masters often have a certain amount of psychic organs to improve their combat power in all aspects. The psychic organs themselves are also constantly evolving. This is the foundation of superman and the cornerstone of infinite evolution. This also laid a hidden danger.

Although there are four spirits to forcibly regulate and maintain a relatively stable structure in the body, when all organs and soul bodies are in a state of evolution, this balance is not always stable.

After all, these organs are not original, they are like components embedded in your body one by one, a symbiotic relationship.

An injury or a wrong evolution may lead to a breakdown of the balance. This is the case with Wu Sanjun, and so is Sister Yinzi.

Wu Sanjun was defeated by being too greedy, forcibly devouring too much led to an imbalance in the internal balance.

In a sense, Sister Yinzi is also too greedy. The eight arms and three wings have brought several times the shooting efficiency, but too many resources are invested in the external organs, and the external strength and internal weakness in the distribution of psionic energy lead to long-term imbalances in the physical body. There is a great hidden danger.

Of course, there is no way to solve this problem. Mythological biologicalization can greatly reduce the risk of imbalance and loss of control.

But obviously, she has failed.

When mentioning mythical creatures, one must mention a concept, the collective subconscious of mankind.

This is similar to the concept mentioned by the ancient Swiss psychologist Carl Gustav Jung, who believed that the same species has a common personality structure at the bottom of the subconscious, which includes the activities of generations including ancestors and The experience bank is stored as a genetic trace in the human brain.

Genetics alone cannot explain it. At that time, some researchers proposed the concept of a collective sea of ​​consciousness, believing that all human consciousness is connected in a certain sense.

But in the era when consciousness can determine reality, similar and evolved new theories were introduced and successfully verified.

The consciousness of the ancestors has always been left on this land. Human consciousness is indeed connected in some unknown way, and has achieved a long-lasting observer effect. Psychologists are trying to use it. This is an infinite resource.

Originally, the development of this technology was used to pit high-dimensional observers - we alone cannot achieve high-dimensional consciousness, but together, quantitative changes produce qualitative changes. Can the collective consciousness that gathers sand into a tower challenge real observation? By?

Some people even privately speculate that the four spirits are some kind of special group consciousness, but this cannot be verified. Any city strictly prohibits the discussion and investigation of the four spirits, which is a felony of treason beyond treason.

The theories and technologies patched together, together with the help of the Ontology World, finally succeeded by luck, and the first batch of artificial heroes and artificial extraordinary creatures appeared.

Let’s not start the process yet, let’s talk about the result directly.

Compared with ordinary top-level sword masters, quasi-mythical creatures and mythical creatures have no inherent advantages, but

Under the integration of group consciousness, he is regarded as a whole. With the help of divinity, the fit of body and soul has been greatly increased, and the unity of soul and body has been substantially achieved.

Under the observer effect of group consciousness, he, who is blended with divinity, has been elevated to a higher dimension, and can more directly resist the consciousness correction of high-dimensional existence. In a sense, he can also be regarded as a man-made false god. It can also endow the spirit blade with a divine weapon, which can more effectively target certain gods.

After the observation and correction of group consciousness, he often has a certain degree of cognition overlap with that mythical figure, and can even obtain some new abilities and characteristics. The West is habitually called divine power, and the East is habitually called supernatural power.

It’s over.

Becoming a full creature, gaining magical powers and resistance to gods, yes, that's all.

As I said before, there is no essential difference between mythical creatures and sword masters. All combat power comes from psionic energy, and they also rely on the iron triangle of the spiritual sword blade. No change.

Of course, there are additional benefits to being a complete creature, for example, you don’t have to worry about organ fighting out of control after being injured, for example, the life extension brought about by the extension of organ life span and stable genetics!Avoid the appearance of deformed children!

In fact, many people go after quasi-mythical creatures for this reason, so that their offspring can win at the starting line. Half of the demihumans are the descendants of extraordinary, quasi-mythological, and mythical creatures.

The other half of the subhumans?That is a sad story that is not suitable for unfolding, and it is probably another detour that needs to be concealed.

Mythical creatures and ordinary extraordinary, only look at combat power, the improvement is quite limited, more just give a new choice and path.

The road of infinite evolution is so dangerous, one step wrong will never be undone, and mythical creatures are more often insurance.

This is also the reason why many mythical creatures can't beat ordinary sword masters. Branded machines are more stable, but compatible machines with the same price are wild enough and have better performance.

Among the strongest group in the contemporary era, many of them were like Miss Yin in the past, only thinking about strengthening themselves in terms of combat power.

She was unlucky, but there are also lucky ones who succeed. Among the same kind, they are out-and-out killing machines. Of course, they generally don't live long.

In fact, perhaps the mythical creature is not the strongest, and the improvement effect is subtle, but it is impossible to be weak.

After all, the threshold for advancement is extremely high, and the quasi-mythical creatures that can become the prerequisites for mythical creatures cannot be touched at Xie Ying's level.

It may take him 30 years to think about this, and now the nearest quasi-myth 24 guards are all super bosses who can kill him in seconds.

Just elevating quasi-myth to myth, defeating all competitors to obtain the only condition, and obtaining the subconscious recognition of the world and human groups, basically confirms that mythical creatures are symbols of super bosses. The more powerful mythological characters are, the more difficult they are. It was even considered impossible to produce mythical creatures - such as Christ and Buddha.

To achieve cognitive overlap, how do you make most people in the world recognize that you are on par with these two?

In fact, compared to too difficult and unique mythical creatures, quasi-mythical creatures with a much lower threshold and who can easily obtain some abilities are more popular.

Many actual combat factions also have the quasi-mythological tendencies of several powerful combat systems, and use pseudo-supernatural powers and quasi-magical weapons to enhance their combat power. For example, a certain female orangutan is also too scary because of too many competitors, and mythical creatures are not even considered.

Sister Yinzi, when she realized that she had strayed off the road and was on the verge of danger, she couldn't turn her head back.

"Mythological creatures must be recognized by the consciousness of the human group. The similarity of psionic organs and appearance is the basis. I was terminally ill with eight arms and three wings. The eight-armed mythical character is Doumu Yuanjun, but the great divinity level of the mother of stars is too high. Later, I tried the three-eyed and eight-armed Buddhist Dharma protector Malizhitian, but it was also too powerful a war god. If I Are males have other options”

Uh, is that too sexist?Rabbit was dumbfounded.

"Nezha and Erlangshen are both men, and their cognitive images are too clear, and the requirements for matching are high, so they were excluded from the beginning."

Speaking of the past, Sister Yin also felt a little uncomfortable. As a half-life soldier, if given a choice, who would be willing to retire.

Now many masters of the martial arts school in the city are all unlucky bastards like me. The way forward has been cut off, and I can only hope to pass on my own things, which is not only convenient for future generations, but also leaving some of my own existence to the world. Trace it.

"Oh, as a mother, it's embarrassing to be seen through by the children. It's a bit unreasonable to let them work hard for me. Especially Yingzi, he is so honest. He has no qualifications and forcibly polishes himself Make it into an appearance suitable for inheritance, and burn it forcibly, it will make people feel distressed when they look at it.”

For the first time, Lan Mengqi saw Sister Yinzi showing a sad expression.

Suddenly, she smiled again, her smile was as bright as a flower.

"God sent you to me at this time. It's a blessing. At least it can free Yingzi. I hope that within a year, you can record [-]% of my archery skills, and I will be very satisfied."

"One year?"

"Well, after a year, I should be dead."
