"Hahaha..." Hera laughed heartily after hearing my answer: "Even though I was reluctant, your answer is correct. The next question is as simple as moving your mouth."
I smiled slightly. As long as the New World thing didn't go to waste, I didn't care about any test. I took out [Apollo's Spear] and said, "Want to fight? Hehe... No matter how many masters you send out, I will defeat them all."
Hera saw the gun in my hand, as if recalling something unpleasant, her face turned gloomy: "You are very confident, but even the proud Claire has the confidence to be a warrior if she is willing to be your soul guard.
When you think you are strong and can defeat anyone, there is one person you absolutely cannot defeat, and that person is yourself."
Hera turned her palm downward, and a black magic circle appeared under my feet. A black light enveloped me in it. Suddenly, my soul seemed to be torn apart.
When the pain disappeared, there was another person in front of me. He was tightly dressed in a silver cloak and holding the [Apollo Gun] in his hand. This person's height, build, and equipment were exactly the same as mine.
I can't believe I'm actually fighting myself. It's just the same appearance and equipment as me. It's just my mirror clone.
I stabbed the opponent with my spear, but the opponent's body didn't even move. The tip of my spear deliberately stopped one centimeter away from his nose.
"Huh? Why doesn't he hide?"
The man opposite me stabbed me, and his gun stopped a centimeter away from my nose. I also didn't dodge because I didn't feel murderous intent from him.
After a round of testing, I was suddenly stunned. Not only were we similar in appearance and equipment, but also our thinking and habits were exactly the same. I had to admire the Lord God’s wisdom. I turned back and said to him: "Hera, are you really this time?"
I’m stumped.”
Hera smiled proudly: "Hehe... since I was bitten by you last time, I got the Taoist classics that you are proud of from... my friends. It is simply wonderful."
"..."
Hera also told me that time in the virtual world does not stand still. It just speeds up the clock of my brain more than 10,000 times. There is no concept of time.
The opponent stabbed at me with a spear, so I switched back to Asura's Spear and switched to the [Brave Sword]. In one-on-one close combat, the short weapon was more agile and faster.
I jumped back and dodged, bent over and rushed over. The opponent also cut out a weapon in the shape of a Tang Dao, and in turn slashed at me. The other hand grabbed my wrist holding the knife.
I also caught the opponent's wrist, which was really exciting! The strength, judgment, and even the timing of the move were exactly the same. It was really not fun now.
I have studied martial arts with Xia Chong since I was a child. Due to my personality, I am good at defense, which means that my defensive ability is more outstanding than my offensive ability.
A flash of sword light, about three hundred rounds have passed, and there is no loophole in the opponent's defense. In the past, in order to make up for my lack of attack methods, I used blood for blood. Now facing a guy with the same defense and energy as me, this move
Obviously it doesn't work
After fighting for a while, he jumped out of the circle: "I said...if you were completely me, you shouldn't stop yourself." Hearing this, the other party stopped and shook his head.
"Hehe! It's useless," Hera said: "I only copied everything he needed to fight and blocked out the emotions that had nothing to do with the fight. The only thought in his mind was to defeat you."
"Hera, since you can use these hands and feet, why don't you increase his strength, agility, intelligence and other values?"
"If it were me in the past, I would definitely do this. However, after I became the Lord God, my ideas have changed. You now have thinking, judgment, and reaction. The moves are based on the original body foundation and formed your own style. If I change it without authorization.
If you exceed certain values, your style will be destroyed.”
My mouth opened wide when I heard that she actually went deep into this level and her level improved a lot, "It seems that you have a lot to learn from our book."
"Haha... there is a saying in your book that what is formed naturally is the best."
An hour later...
I used all my strength to fight against him. The person opposite me seemed to see through everything and always had a way to deal with it. Later, I was forced to rely entirely on instinct to fight. An hour of intense concentration made me mentally exhausted.
Two hours later...
I gnawed more than 70 pieces of bread to replenish my strength. Watching our duel, Hera, the main god, dozed off: "I say boy, the other party is as stubborn as you, and there are no distracting thoughts in his mind. He will never defeat you until he defeats you."
"give up"
At this time, our weapons were clashing with each other. There were gaps in the [Brave Sword], and my durability turned red. I switched back to the weapon and used my fist.
Three hours later...
After eating all the bread to replenish my physical strength, my physical strength tank turned completely red, and my breathing became rapid.
"Give up! It's impossible for you to defeat yourself." Hera kept helping me to feel discouraged, damn the Lord God.
"Shut up! I would rather lose to anyone than myself." The other party was unsteady on his feet and seemed to be more tired than me. He clearly endured the same mental pain as me, but he could still persevere.
Ha! That idea just now was ridiculous, as if I was praising myself.
Four hours later...
In the fantasy world, the result of exhaustion of physical strength is that in addition to a significant decrease in attributes, vision, hearing, smell, and perception are also greatly reduced.
When I was fighting with myself, my eyes could only vaguely see the outline of the opponent's body. I relied on a little sound and my understanding of myself.
At this moment, the other party's body turned into black light. Hera clapped her hands and applauded: "Amazing, amazing! You actually persisted until my magic time disappeared."
"So, I passed?" My body softened and I lay on the deck, my vision blurry.
Hera said: "Of course, you have already qualified, in about an hour, hahaha..."
"..."
“Ding Bell~!” Global announcement: The Silver Moon Alliance of Brewer Continent has expanded its territory. The newly added land is [Shaxel Islands]. The lord is the unknown hermit, a warrior from a different continent.
Following the system prompts, the world was filled with the long-lost chirping of birds, the sound of sea waves, and the sound of wind. Not only was time restored, but my vision, hearing, and smell returned to normal.
Hera disappeared, as if she had never appeared. I took out the [Brave Sword], and the gaps on it were restored. Everything seemed not to have happened, but a large beach appeared in front of the Silver Moon.
Beaches, plains, mountains, forests...
I became excited inside, this is my land, my own land, I shouted to the sky: "I have discovered a new world"
A system panel automatically popped up in front of me. It was about the lord's authority. It listed all the islands in the Shaksel Islands in a row, and also marked out the scope of my territorial waters. I felt like I was a king.
"Ding~! Please ask the lord to personally set the permissions of your land."
The Shaxel Islands belong to the Silver Moon Alliance, and the land is completely open to Silver Moon NPCs and players. As for players outside the Silver Moon Alliance, the Burning Sun Empire, the Blood Alliance, and Japanese players, I have set them as hostile. As soon as they enter the territorial waters, we will immediately treat them.
counterattack
As for players from other countries, I set it to neutral, allowing them to enter the sea, but not the land. If they enter the land without our permission, the diplomatic relations between us will immediately become hostile.
Regarding the tax rate panel, the system automatically charges 15% of the profit, 5% is turned over to the finance of the Silver Moon Alliance, 5% is turned over to the finance of my guild, and 5% of the income is converted into US dollars and transferred to my personal account.
I paid attention to the upper and lower tax rates. The upper limit of the tax rate allowed by Alliance law is 20%, and the maximum limit of the Empire's law is as high as 75%. After catching up with the Chinese Empire, the Alliance's laws are more humane.
Hiss...
There was a special passenger on the ship, a big blue snake sleeping on the deck. He spat out the message at me, slithered into the sea, and swam towards the land.
A group of people rushed to the deck. These people opened their eyes wide and exclaimed: "It's land, haha... great, we thought we were cheated."
Another person said: "There was only the sea just now, why did land suddenly appear? It's so weird."
"Hey! Hermit, isn't the land ahead an illusion?" They came over and asked, and I replied: "It's real, and it's definitely not an illusion." I spent four hours getting it, how could it be an illusion?
"Hermit, our president said that when he sees you, please go to the control room." A female mage, Jiao Didi, said to me
"Thanks!"
At this time, the deck is full of people. They are almost all doing the same thing, bringing up the system panel, turning on the video and camera plug-ins, and sharing the joy with friends who cannot see the new world.
"Brother Hermit, there is something very strange." I entered the main control room, and Sui Fengmiao brought up a three-dimensional map for me to watch.
This map of [Shaksel Islands] is not consistent with the previous map of the South China Sea. There were only four relatively large islands in the original map. Now there is a larger island, which is about the same size as New Zealand.
Located in the center of the [Shaksel Islands], the original four large islands surrounded the largest island.
I temporarily named the five main islands on the map, North Island, South Island, East Island, and West Island. The largest island was named Central Island, which makes it more intuitive.
Sui Feng Piaomiao looked at the central island, her eyes brightening: "This is after you became the lord just now, Louise updated the map generated in your database, and we made a lot of money."
"Yes!" There was a big island unexpectedly. It seems that my hard work for 4 hours was not in vain. I was given such a large piece of land in addition.
Everyone was depressed and desperate before, but suddenly they became more excited. When everyone was toasting to celebrate, Yang Xixue lowered her voice and asked me: "What happened just now? Why did you suddenly hear the news?"
I didn’t know how to answer her. She said that time stopped and she met the Lord God and fought with me for four hours! I shook my head and said, "Forget it! I don’t want to mention that matter. As long as everyone is happy," Yang Xixue flashed her sharp eyes.
, asked reluctantly: "If I have doubts in my heart, I will keep looking for answers until I figure it out. This is the kind of person I am. For the sake of being Xiruo's sister, please tell me."
