Walking in the dark passage, the surrounding black shadows cannot hinder my perception. Maybe I don't have the night vision ability of the longevity species, but my sensitive senses and massive combat experience allow me to construct images in my mind with my eyes closed.
A three-dimensional model of the surrounding environment to avoid these mechanized attacks at will.
Swing the hammer, hit hard, shatter, dozens of magic puppets are simply turned into waste.
For experienced warriors, against such an opponent, relying on instinct is enough. Even if it is not the fighting instinct to avoid attacks, just relying on the dragon armor, they can lazily avoid and retreat.
It has already been cleaned up once by the assault team, and the remaining elite units have probably already invested in the encirclement and suppression of the team. Along the way, I really didn't see anything good.
"At this level, even a warm-up is not enough..."
I contacted Timiret. Although it was very noisy there and I couldn’t hear what was going on, but from the miserable howl of “Boss Roland, come to help, I can’t stand it anymore!”, I could hear...
They should last a while!
“I can’t stand it anymore and I can’t call for help.”
"Uh-huh."
"It sounds like there is still some strength left, but I don't know what they have to rely on."
The people present were all veterans, so how could they not hear that Timiret's plea for help lacked the tension and fear of a life-threatening situation.
And even if we rush to rescue, it won't be something we can do in a short while.
The mechanical elevator used by the assault team has been artificially destroyed. Even with Timiret's guidance, the defense of the Tower of Babel is not worth mentioning, and it will take us time to arrive.
"Three hundred and sixty-nine, three hundred
seven……"
I was counting the numbers before I fell down, but now I can count them casually.
Looking at the large amount of mechanical debris behind me, I doubted whether this number would exceed a thousand at the lowest level.
Most of the mechanical defense equipment is not strictly for military use. There are quite a few equipment for cleaning, repair, and care. Putting together such a defense system makes me want to yawn without any difficulty.
How can you tell it's not for military use? The six-handed robot rushed over with a strange buzzing sound, holding a broom, a dustpan, a mop, and a rag. The spray gun that suddenly emerged from the ground sprayed out a thin column of water.
There is also strange music when shooting, just like a sprinkler truck to remind newcomers to take shelter.
And there are some weird things that seem strange and strange, but they make me laugh.
The stuffed toy with the strange baby sign and singing a lullaby really didn't go to the wrong set? The one spinning around on the unicycle is really not an acrobat.
Those arms spraying with sparks are indeed scary, but do you really think I am a primitive person who has never seen a welding gun?
Such an opponent made me feel powerless, and I even had the urge to shout, "Be serious, this is a war."
After using the war hammer for a while, it was put away again. Now it is a temporarily summoned ice sword. Although it is not as good as the calamity sword that Heloise transformed, it is enough to deal with these toys.
Using the artifact war hammer to clean up these things always feels like it is not only a waste, but also a desecration of the artifact.
"Do you still cherish weapons? Do you think we have forgotten about using Roland's holy sword to crack walnuts? By the way, why are you wasting your magic power to freeze those plush bears and cleaning tools? I think you should change them
Weapons are meant to preserve the integrity of these puppets and mechanical creations."
"... Let's study whether it can be commercialized. Even if it can't be sold, it can still be given as a gift."
"To whom!"
"To whom?"
I was stunned by the questions asked by my fellow travelers in unison, and their eager stares were even more incomprehensible, but I had a clear conscience and there was nothing I could not say.
"Renee and Annie, the little girls must like stuffed toys very much. I gave Annie a skeleton doll and she was happy for many days..."
"seek death."
"I'll give you ten points for committing suicide!"
I have become accustomed to ignoring the strange remarks behind my back, and I just talk about my plans.
"...Actually, I feel a little guilty for leaving for so long without saying a word and leaving the mess to them. And since they are all juniors, Galina should also have a gift, but she looks very mature, so she may not like it, or
Let’s pick out some decent mechanical puppets for her. The technology here is obviously ahead of the junk gadgets of goblins and gnomes. She is also a mechanic, so she should like it.”
"I was a little curious to see what Grena's expression would be when she received a normal gift, but Renee herself received a stuffed toy."
"Don't worry, you will see it soon, at least it will be expected early."
While chatting, I went downstairs. I also gradually adapted to my current physical body during the battle. After all, if I want to take the next step well, the fit between the soul and the physical body is very important.
"...Are you planning to hit the epic? Why don't you experience it more at the Holy Level?"
My desire for advancement and power has not been concealed, and I have even begun to prepare for it
Everyone present has reached the peak, and they can see it a little bit.
"Well, we don't have much time, and the epic level is very special. To me, understanding and understanding it is of little significance in breaking through the epic level."
"So, how many are you planning to do?"
Amyra asked questions without any beginning or end, but I understood it instantly.
"Haha, guess what."
It seemed like we were playing riddles while joking, but in fact I didn’t know how many “epics” this time would turn out to be. After all, my studies were too complicated and there were too many choices.
The epic level is an extremely glorious and illusory realm for ordinary humans, but in our concept, it is the transition before reaching demigods. There was once a strong man who summarized this realm in one sentence
special.
"Before the demigods, there was a path. The epic level means that you have reached the end of the road. At this stage, it is the summary of the path of yourself and the entire group. After you have crossed over, there is no path at all after you reach the demigods.
"
When it comes to epics, the most common ones are probably epic weapons, and most of the epic weapons are indeed the legacy of epic heroes. The relationship between them is extremely complicated. I am afraid that this starts with the extremely special breakthrough method of the epic level.
The various levels of human beings are also stages for strong individuals to explore their potential. Those who are ahead may not be strong, but they have definitely gone further.
The pure energy level of individual creatures has almost reached its peak at the legendary peak. The ability of powerful masters to master forbidden spells at this stage is proof of this. The holy level is more of an advancement in characteristics, and is a concept similar to "priesthood".
Advancement of privileges
Since the Holy Order is called a transcendent and saintly existence, the potential of the race has been completely tapped. The pure energy and will in it are enough to interfere in the world, and even have "world privileges" that mortals cannot control. If you don't choose to ascend to God
It seems that I can't go any further.
Epic, but an incredible breakthrough of that perfect body.
"Since we can no longer make progress, then we should seek help from outside sources."
I don’t know who first came up with such an advanced path, and I don’t know if it is the right path, but countless intelligent creatures have proven that this path is feasible through their own experiences.
Before the epic, there is accumulation and gradual improvement. As long as the talent is high enough and the life span is long enough, one day you will step into this realm. And the beginning of the epic is to fight against the sky, against people, and against oneself, to forcefully break through and move forward. If you don't advance, you will be defeated.
retreat.
The epic level has three gates, which are also three stages of breakthrough, but they are also three steps in the formation of one's own "epic weapon".
The first step, which is the first stage of the epic, is to continue to sublimate one's "concept" and transform it from an illusory existence into a real "existence". What is evolved at this stage is still the physical body.
For example, it was at this stage that Adam himself purified the "Phoenix Flame" into the concept of "immortality". From then on, he was the same as the Phoenix, with immortal flames and an immortal body.
The second step is to take this "concept" out of the body and turn it into a real "object".
It is extremely difficult to make something from scratch. In this "sword shaping" process, "raw materials" are often prepared and used to create the finished product.
It can be a certain weapon, it can be a modified organ
, it can even be the surrounding environment, it can also be a certain magic, a certain mental world, and the finished product is also difficult to classify.
Still taking Adam as an example, at this stage he completed the inheritance of the Phoenix, captured the blood and heart of the Phoenix, and had the Phoenix Fire swords "Phoenix Favor" and "Phoenix Heart".
The third stage, which is also the final step, actually resonates with the fusion of "epic weapons".
These weapons are already filled with your soul and ideas. As long as you let these weapons become a part of your body, your expanded body will open up the stage for continued improvement. From then on, you will be completely separated from the mundane world. The sea and sky are vast before you, with no obstacles and no boundaries.
It seems like nothing needs to be done? In fact, this is the part with the highest mortality rate.
And this seemingly simplest stage is actually the most difficult, and it is also the most difficult hurdle that leads to the small number of demigods in each plane.
The body is incomplete, the soul is incomplete, and there is no possibility of achieving soul resonance. The undead are stuck... and the undead without fresh bodies and complete souls are in pain at this level. The history of blood and tears can be used to accuse the creation goddesses of treating the undead.
"racial discrimination"
The "concept" is too weak, the "materials" are not strong, and the "epic weapons" created either directly collapse, or are barely usable, but cannot carry their own souls and future paths, and are stuck... This is more than 70%
There are many reasons for failure, but don’t be discouraged. It is still possible to succeed if you start over. You just have to look for the concept from the beginning... There is still a chance to make another breakthrough in thirty years.
The "concept" is too strong, the "materials" are also strong enough, and the weapons created are extremely powerful.
Completely stuck, or even direct death... Why? The physical body cannot withstand the power of the "weapon", and the person is driven by the instrument, or becomes the soul of the instrument, or the body collapses, or becomes an idiot.
Each of the three gates is more difficult than the last, and the last gate has been cursed by countless epic heroes for being unfair. But if it is broken through, not only will the demigod queen have a brighter future, but she will also be able to harvest magical weapons tailor-made for herself.
In his hands, it can even surpass the artifact in some aspects, and an explosion in combat power can be expected.
Margaret's two "epic weapons", one is the "Book of Magic", which can reproduce the magic cast by others, and the other is the "Philosopher's Stone", which has an almost endless magic library.
One piece is easy to deal with, but two pieces combined are useless.
She can throw away multiple forbidden spells at will, double-cast spells at any time in a head-on duel, and has unlimited magic power. When it comes to long-range combat, one person can be the master of a group, which is extremely shameless.
Rather than being said to be weapons, epic weapons are more like the physical extension of an epic warrior. When an epic warrior dies, the "epic weapons" are not so much his relics as they are his remains.
Without the blessing of the soul and body, its power is naturally greatly reduced, but it is still a good weapon with many wonderful uses. There are even records of the death of demigod-level heroes leaving behind artifacts.
I know that at this stage, there can be no more, no less, just enough... hitting and rushing at this stage is equivalent to seeking death. Caution, experience and repeated attempts are the only way to pass the level, at least, this is the case for most people.
But for me, who once broke through the epic, I have already prepared the way to break through.
We have even prepared a dozen "concepts" that are enough to carry the epic, but this step is not so easy to take.
