At night, in the suburbs of Gotham City, outside the abandoned carnival venue.
There are two people carrying out an ulterior transaction here...
As the brilliance gradually dimmed, the two items [Kongtong Seal] and [Tiangang Disha Box] turned into dust in Dr. Manhattan's left and right hands respectively.
"It's done." Then, Dr. Manhattan said this to Feng Bujue in his calm tone.
Brother Jue stood two meters away from the doctor. After hearing this, he silently felt the changes in himself, and then continued: "But I don't seem to have any special feeling."
"This is normal. In the final analysis...it is only your 'projection' that undergoes this change, not your real body that exists in some distant other dimension." Dr. Manhattan replied, "In fact, for
At this point, you should feel lucky. If your body was undergoing the 'change' just now, you would definitely experience tremendous physical pain."
"Hmm..." Brother Jue pondered, and looked down at his body from the data perspective again, "If you use 'look'... you can indeed see that the data intensity has been greatly improved."
"To be specific... your body density has now stabilized at a very high value. Even without any protection, it can resist most conventional weapons in the human world." Dr. Manhattan continued, "And
Another improvement brought about by this physical change is the surge in strength and speed; with your talent, I think you will soon be able to figure out how to control the output... In addition, you are stored in the [Tiangang Earthsha Box]
The energy in it has also become a part of you, and your resistance and ability to control non-material attacks such as magic, spells, and pure energy have been significantly enhanced."
While the doctor was explaining, Feng Bujue had opened the game menu and started checking his luggage and equipment.
Since Dr. Manhattan was always aware of his every subtle move and psychological change, after the previous explanation, the doctor continued: "As for those extra 'items' on your body, they are all in the [Kongtong Seal"]
] appeared under some kind of space-time reversal effect caused by. The principle of this effect...even I can't analyze it. I only know...the particles of [Kongtong Seal] show that it does not belong to any one I know.
universe, and the matter it traces back seems to come from multiple different universes. This phenomenon is beyond the scope of what all the theories I know can explain."
Feng Bujue had finished inspecting it while listening to the other party's words.
Unfortunately, the results he got made him feel a little bit pained.
Brother Jue originally thought that [Kongtong Seal] could restore those items and equipment that had been erased by Twenty-Three and that Dream Company would not restore, which were the items that were destroyed at the end of the script of "Return to the Devil's Island".
; But...he was wrong.
The "retrospective" effect of [Kongtong Seal] is not the kind of setting that can be accurate to a certain point in time. If that were the case, he could go back a little further and get back all the items he had lost, such as
The [Blade that must break through defense] that was destroyed by Crazy Eyes, and the [One-hit Killer Gun], [Contra Medal] that appeared in certain scripts...these things have more strategic significance than the batch of sophisticated weapons he lost.
Equipment below level is much higher.
The actual situation is that the things that [Kongtong Seal] goes back to are randomly selected from the timeline that his character has experienced.
Therefore, Feng Bujue got the following items: [Mario's Pipe Wrench], [Children's Bat], [Broken Bat Cloak], [Remnants of Decomposition], [Marijuana*2], [Mountain-like] and
【Energy Gloves】.
I don’t know whether it’s a coincidence or some kind of limitation of the system, but among this pile of things, none of them are classified as “plot-related”.
Of course, this is not the point. The point is... these things are basically... rubbish.
First of all, [Mario's Pipe Wrench] has a "medium" attack power, a "fire" attribute, and a special effect of "attacking the head has a chance of causing heavy damage"; in the early stages of the game, this is naturally a very powerful weapon.
, but now... in an environment of more than fifty levels, players' weapons are basically "strong" or "extremely strong" in attack power, because when facing a group of "strong" or "extremely strong"
"When it comes to defensive armor, "medium" attack items will appear relatively weak; in addition, the special effects of high-level equipment are generally much better than this, even if they don't have attributes, they are stronger than it.
Secondly, [Children's Bat], a three-no (no attack power, attributes, special effects) weapon of ordinary quality, made of rubber, a toy... In the early stages of the game, I also suffered the fate of my brother's store as soon as I bought it, but now it is
Not to mention.
Then, [Broken Bat Cloak], [Marijuana*2] and [Energy Gloves], these three items are special items that "cannot be brought out of the script" but are not "plot items", just because Feng Bujue
It was once held in the script, so it was backdated.
In terms of attributes... the cloak is also a three-nothing; marijuana... well... it is just ordinary marijuana, and players cannot use this "high" because the system cannot allow players to experience drugs in the game; and [Energy Gloves]
, the meaning is a bit unclear, its quality is dilapidated, its defense power is weak, its defense attribute has no defense attributes at all, and its special effects are... [???]
In the "sub-dimensional space" in the "world without games", the [Energy Glove] has the ability to control the matter there like the law of cause and effect, but whether it can work in other places is still unknown.
Let’s look at the last thing... [Residuum of the Decomposed Residue], if you still have the impression, this thing is produced by the [Zero Magic Crusher] after it fails to create items. Literally speaking, it is complete garbage.
To sum up, when Feng Bujue looked back at the things, there was only one useful thing, and that was [Mountain-like].
In the semi-finals of S2, Brother Jue used [燚龘] to blast out this orb, knocking down Lin Yan in the "King of Hell" period with one blow; now that he has lost it and recovered it, it is equivalent to getting back a weapon that can be used
The additional skills of "hard defense" can also be used as ammunition when necessary, which can be regarded as a gain.
"You seem a little disappointed." Dr. Manhattan asked after looking at Brother Jue's reaction.
"Ah... not bad..." When Feng Bujue responded, he had already turned his attention to his skill bar.
Then, his expression changed significantly...
After being "cleaned up" by Twenty-Three, Dream Company only restored two skills for Feng Bujue, namely [Moon Step] and [Land Foot], but Feng Bujue still had four skills left in the storage room.
They are [Ice Alchemist's Persistence], [Not So Hasty Maintenance], [Qigong Cannon] and [South Dou Feilong Fist].
Considering that his skill bar is now very loose, Brother Jue naturally brings all these skills, even if there are two of them (because the levels of each specialization are already very high, [Ice Warlock's Perseverance] is almost useless)
It makes sense, and [Qigong Cannon], a move with its own probability of instant death (Brother Jue is unlikely to use it now), is basically no longer used.
However, after Dr. Manhattan "restored" him, Feng Bujue found that... his skill bar simply became empty.
"I said..." Of course Brother Jue had a lot of objections to this. He immediately looked at the doctor and said, "...Is there something wrong? Why not only did I not regain my lost ability, but I even have the ability I have now.
All are gone?”
"They are not 'missing', you are just 'turning a blind eye' to them." Dr. Manhattan replied.
"Your metaphysical answer is really helpful to me." Feng Bujue glared at him and responded in a sarcastic tone.
"You should understand what I mean." In this regard, Dr. Manhattan did not have any emotional fluctuations. He just continued to speak in a straightforward tone, "Since you have absorbed the power of [Kongtong Seal] and [Tiangang Earthsha Box],
Dual power, the so-called 'skill bar' given to you by 'fate'...does it still make sense?"
As soon as he said this, an idea flashed in Feng Bujue's mind.
He understood the meaning in an instant, and then he raised one hand, put two fingers together, and launched a move towards Su Su in the distance.
The next second, a psychic shock shot out from his fingertips, passed through the air, and penetrated into the water.
The trick he used was not even a skill he had mastered before, but a skill he had "seen" before...
That was the [Spiritual Spear Vulture Thrust] used by the [Xuanling King] in the enemy formation when they faced [Golden Warhammer Team] in S2; at that time, the opponent used this move to attack the robot "Infection Fighter" sent by Feng Bujue.
"(Made by Musashi Koganei), while Brother Kaku watched the battle from a data perspective in the dark.
"I understand... it doesn't matter if I'm invisible, because I don't need to see you again." After completing this "experiment", Feng Bujue continued.
"Yes." Dr. Manhattan nodded, "As long as you can 'understand' the 'truth sequence' you see, you can naturally copy its operation. This has something in common with my control of elementary particles, but relatively speaking
It's much simpler." He paused, "For example... if there is a painting in front of us, your ability is to recreate a very similar painting in your own way after seeing this painting.
; And I will start from the paint of the painting, the composition of the canvas, and even every brain cell of the original author and his various emotional experiences on the timeline..."
"Okay, okay, you don't need to tell me about the knowledge at the quantum observer level." Feng Bujue had no intention of listening to the doctor. "Unless I become a being with the same dimensional ability as you, it will be a waste of time."
"Well..." Dr. Manhattan muttered, "So... are you satisfied now?"
"The transaction is established." Feng Bujue gave an affirmative reply, "But... there is a small matter besides the transaction. I would like to ask your help." As he said that, he took out the [broken item] from his bag.
Bat Cloak], "This... I would like to ask you to keep it for the time being."
"Keep it for you?" Dr. Manhattan then asked, "So, who should I give it to in the future?"
"Ha..." Brother Jue smiled at him and said something in English, "you_tell_me."
Dr. Manhattan was silent for a few seconds, then looked at Feng Bujue and said, "I understand, I will hand it over to 'him'."
…………
Now, the main universe, the monster kingdom.
The [Purgatory Unparalleled Explosive Heat Wave Cannon] used by Feng Bujue shattered the explosion tunnel like a torrent; when you don't know how to close a certain "portal", there is no doubt that you can use this power that can shatter time and space to "brute force" it.
It's a good idea.
When the tunnel exploded, half of the more than ten redundant soldiers who had just climbed out were immediately crushed by the collapsing space-time singularity, and the remaining few did not hesitate to kill towards the enemy a few meters away.
Brother Jue.
Although Feng Bujue had just withdrawn his attack, he was not helpless. Even without relying on others, he had at least three or five ways to deal with this attack.
However, since arrangements had been made before taking action, he did not do anything else.
Huhu
At that second, Xiaotan and Xu Huaishang both jumped into the air... The former flashed behind Feng Bujue at the speed of lightning, grabbed Brother Jue's waist, and then with one movement, the two figures appeared.
At the same time, it disappeared from mid-air.
At the same moment, Xu Huaishang unsheathed his two swords.
Because she is equipped with the passive skill [Left and Right Fighting Technique], Xu Huaishang can use two hands to perform two different skills at the same time (provided that the skills can theoretically be used with one hand). At this moment, in her hand
[Luo Hua] and [Fei Xu] each used a move, the left hand [Blood Smoke Flowing Wind], the right hand [Suye Zhanwu], two slashes with different effects and killing ranges, each with the most appropriate angle, speed and intensity...
Hit those redundant soldiers with irregular positions to the greatest extent.
When Xu Huaishang withdrew her move and slowly fell from the air, the corpses of those redundant soldiers had already fallen to the ground one step ahead of her. Wang Tanzhi and Feng Bujue appeared in Bill's place as if they had teleported.
and the death of King Dian Tuan.
This is why Feng Bujue did nothing after destroying the tunnel...
Because Brother Jue told two teammates before breaking through the tunnel: "If there are redundant soldiers who slip through the net and attack me after I use my skills, just in case... Xiaotan will be responsible for pulling me to a safe area.
Shang, go ahead and defeat the pursuers."
After all, what Feng Bujue wanted to use was the [Purgatory Unparalleled Explosive Heat Wave Cannon]. Even though his current physical and spiritual power limits were very high, he still took into account the possibility that he would "enter a state of collapse after using the skill."
, so we made this comprehensive arrangement.
At the moment, although he has not entered that state, out of trust in his teammates and... laziness... he did not do anything extra after he sent the move.
"It's amazing." After seeing Xu Huaishang's performance, Feng Bujue couldn't help but exclaimed, "Every time I see you again after a while, your strength will be significantly improved... To be honest, I really mean it.
I admire you."
"Isn't this a matter of course?" Xu Huaishang, who returned to the ground, did not show any joy at Feng Bujue's praise. She just responded calmly, "For professional players, 'improving strength' is
Just do your job, there is nothing worthy of praise or bragging."
"Haha... What you said makes those actors who have bruises and bruises, who go into the water in winter and wear fur jackets in summer, come out and shout about how 'dedicated' they are, have become very embarrassed." Brother Jue.
Complain.
"I think you should use the analogy here of 'athletes who are highly paid, out of shape, and can't even pass the physical fitness test.'" Xu Huaishang said, "Because the 'actor' in your example..."
At this point, she raised her hands and made a quotation mark gesture, "...Whether he can be called an 'actor' is debatable."
"Yeah... that's right." Feng Bujue nodded, "Think about it carefully, if the investors who paid these people to star are not buying 'acting skills', but to ensure box office... From this perspective
, they can be considered to have completed their job.”
"Have you two had enough chatting?" Seeing that they were getting more and more enthusiastic as they chatted, King Dian Tuan interrupted again with his "unhappy" expression, "You know that 90% of us can't hear what you are saying.
Don’t you understand (the reason for system blocking)?” He turned his head, looked at the black sky in the distance, and said, “If I’m not mistaken, this should be the Kingdom of Monsters... Well... This does explain why.
They want to send so many troops... In short, now that we have reached our destination and have temporarily escaped the pursuers, what should we do next?"
This question was naturally asked by Feng Bujue.
"Before I say what to do..." Brother Jue also looked at Lao Wang and responded, "You guys..." He glanced at Brother Billy again, "You all feel it too, right?"
"Ah..." Billy continued, "Dou Mo is also here, but... he is still far away from us at the moment."
"If nothing else happens..." Feng Bujue continued, "I think we should have just caught up with the time when the fighting demons and the redundant army are attacking the monster kingdom." He paused and asked, "Speaking of... war
It’s been two years since the beginning, why are they attacking here only now?”
"On the one hand, the Monster Kingdom is remote and extremely difficult to reach." Zhuanjie Zun continued at this time, "On the other hand...in the early days of the war, the number of redundant legions was not as large as it is now.
We may not be able to conquer this place without our strength."
"Oh?" Feng Bujue said, "Is the Monster Kingdom so powerful?"
"As far as a single force is concerned, the Monster Kingdom is far stronger than any of the original Four Pillar Gods." Zhuanjie Zun said, "It's just that the residents of the kingdom are content with their lives here and have no intention of getting involved in the main universe's struggle for hegemony.
.From the perspective of the Four Pillar Gods, this 'marginal land' separated from other areas of the main universe has no value in occupying it, and it is also a hard nut to crack...so..."
At this time, Billy continued: "Using the history of your world as an example, it is equivalent to... During World War II, Iceland suddenly mastered twice the combat power of the German army. In this case, I am afraid that no one will do anything else.
Let’s attack the battlefield before it’s completely settled?”
"Hmm..." Feng Bujue thought for a few seconds, "Your example is very good, but does that mean..." As he spoke, his eyes changed slightly, "Right now, the Monster Kingdom is the end of the main universe.
