Chapter 565: Alchemy of Equivalent Exchange

Paris, 15th arrondissement, Mont Parnas Building.

This ancient building, which was known as the tallest building in Paris at the time, had an explosion that shocked the European Union in 2031 when a protest march was held due to the transfer of the economic center. Its impact was almost no less than that of the Red Sun incident in Night City, because it was

At one time, almost the entire population of Paris cheered for the explosion.

At that time, people said that the building was the most beautiful place in Paris because it was the only place in Paris where it could not be seen.

The explosion broke the Parnassian Building in the middle. Because the attackers had been warned in advance, the building and its surroundings had been cleared at that time, so there were no victims in the explosion. However, it was soon revealed that the building materials contained a large amount of asbestos.

, this carcinogen is floating in the sky with smoke and dust over half of the city.

Although it is well known that cancer itself is not easy to cure, the citizens of Paris still carried forward their own style. The demonstrations came to an abrupt end, and there was no public complaint about the transfer of the economic center. The industries that had long been fed up with Paris's old infrastructure

The elite embraced the new Paris next door.

It was not until many years later that someone mentioned in a memoir that they had sold an old building for a good price.

But later, with the reconstruction of the Parnas Hill Tower, MAD Design Office proposed an ingenious plan for Paris upside down, using clever optical principles to present the reflection of the entire city on the upper half of the new Parnas Hill Tower. If you look at it from

Looking directly below the Eiffel Tower, you can even see a completely upside-down tower.

Although after the completion of the Mont Parnas Tower, the surrounding real estate for several kilometers depreciated due to light pollution, the citizens of Paris who were competing with the new Paris at the time selectively forgot this part of the impact.

By the way, the reason Tanguy didn’t see this spectacular scene when he was fighting under the Eiffel Tower was because the property owner of Mont Parnass Tower went bankrupt a few years ago, and the reflector used to reflect the Paris street scene was now dirty.

It no longer reflects light much.

Judging from Ding Yue's touch, he felt that all the birds in Paris might regard this place as a public toilet. If a company could be found to carefully clean the bird droppings on the surface of the building, it might be possible to supply one or two to the nearby agricultural area.

sky.

God knows what those players were thinking, choosing this place as their base.

But obviously the current owner here did not intend to explain this matter to him calmly. The birdman with wings seemed to be a cosplay angel, floating behind Ding Yue, with a bow of light in his hand constantly opening and closing, shooting out arrows.

Arrow of light.

Ding Yue admitted that he was really startled by the other party's intimidating appearance at first. Only after he was hit by an arrow in the knee did he realize that the other party just looked scary and was actually harmless.

The light arrow hit Ding Yue's knee, giving him the feeling as if he had been shot by an air gun. The gray-white flame of hatred flashed past and burned the thing away.

If it weren't for the hundreds of players behind him who were climbing the stairs to catch people, and he didn't have the courage to challenge the free fall of hundreds of meters, Ding Yue would have wanted to jump out, knock down the target, and take his head off to the Tang Dynasty.

Once you hand it over to Gina, it will be over.

After digging out a large handful of bird droppings from the glass, Ding Yue turned around and rushed towards the bird man. As a result, a strong wind blew the residue back onto his face, causing Ding Yue to retch a few times and could only feel depressed.

Continue climbing down.

Albireololi watched coldly in the air as the aboriginal threw shit at him. He opened his bow and arrow again and shot out an arrow, hitting the opponent's back. Nothing happened and the opponent didn't even bother to look back at him.

This was a high-level superhuman, Albireo was sure of it, because he had tested it before and found that his transformed bow and arrow could easily shoot through two metal cars next to each other.

Albireololi was proficient in air combat skills, flying postures, and archery skills in the first few worlds. He knew where his upper limit was, and one month after entering this world, he had already touched his previous upper limit.

But the ability called [Equivalent Exchange Alchemy] was still at the low level of LV1. This huge contrast made Albireo instantly realize that the upper limit of power in this world was almost unfathomable, and he immediately began to move the battle group

The main force is constantly transferred to this world.

The wings of the Angel of Light and the bow and arrows he is currently using are top-notch equipment that were used in another world. When using [Equivalent Exchange Alchemy] to create these two things, the price is only three people per twelve minutes.

So Albireo ordered the battle group to mobilize and massacre all the indigenous people in his area. Compared to the power possessed by superhumans, those mortals were frighteningly fragile and of terrible value.

Expanding the size of the battle group and acquiring more powerful superhuman bodies seems to be the only way for players to expand the battle group.

But Albireo found another path based on his own abilities, a path that is more suitable for his personal abilities. If he gathers the power of the entire battle group and converts the resources for his own use, he can fill the vacancy of high-level superhumans among the players.

, they may be able to go one step faster than other war groups!

Therefore, Albireo united two battle groups that had cooperated before, and bloodbathed nearly 200,000 indigenous people in a week, turning these people into 'power' in his hands.

When the plan first started, there were pioneers who tried to hinder Albireo, but after Albireo turned those pioneer bodies into part of his own power, he was no longer so blindly pioneering.

The person stood up.

They know their position very well, and it is their job to serve players and allow them to better understand the world.

What's more, the Star Seal Chapter established by Albireo is itself a large war group. When they fully settled in this world, in terms of strength alone, they have completely surpassed the Pioneers. The only thing that can limit them is their mission tendency.

That’s all.

But now, Albireo ignored the mission previously issued by the system and the large-scale dungeon invitation sent. In his opinion, the countless population of the Paris District is the most precious thing.

After confirming that his existing weapons could not deal with the aboriginal superhuman, Albireo simply distanced himself, opened his hand and pointed it at the Parnassus Tower, and gently rotated his palm ninety degrees.

His movements were gentle and slow, but the word feedback on the building itself changed into something else.

Ding Yue was shocked to feel that the whole building beneath him was shaking slightly, and then the building cracked from the upper third, and a section of the building more than fifty meters high was laid sideways!

"Please note that the real-time video of the Paris District is about to be accessed, 3, 2, 1!" The gray-white screen in front of Mikkelsen suddenly lit up again, and the ghost explained without much emotion: "In the Paris District

Supernormal abilities beyond warning lines discovered.”

"I saw it." Mikkelsen squinted his eyes and looked at the screen and said. When he said he saw it, he meant that he saw it with his own eyes.

At the moment the video was accessed, Mikkelsen's clone hidden in the Paris District had already seen the Mont Parnassian building that had suddenly become shorter. The upper third of the building was being removed like building blocks.

Fiddle with it, fiddle with it.

Floating in mid-air, Albireo stood out in the dust because of his wings of light.

Ding Yue hung on the edge of the building, half of his arm inserted into the concrete surface to fix himself there to prevent falling.

He saw those players who were stuck in the lower half of the building because the building was cut off. Their eyes looked at Albireo so enthusiastically that they completely ignored those colleagues who were being thrown out due to the random rotation of the building.

Looking at Albireo's eyes and the performance of those players, Ding Yue realized these things for the first time. They were not human beings, but immortal demons from another world.

Albireo slowly hovered about fifty meters away from Ding Yue, maintaining an invisible shield around his body. To maintain the existence of this shield, it consumes one person every minute, and when an unknown attack

When the shield is actually hit, his stored 'people' will be consumed according to the attack strength.

His ability is alchemy, but the focus is on the four words of equivalent exchange. The things Albireo consumes are not limited to humans. Precious metals and things that have value in universal values ​​are also considered acceptable.

In exchange, Albireo can wish for whatever effect he wants.

He can set off tsunamis, cause earthquakes, and materialize the equipment he wants, but he can't reverse time, resurrect life, grant supernatural abilities to mortals, and increase his ability level for the time being.



On this basis, Albireo chose human life as the exchange object simply because the quantity of this kind of thing was large enough and easily available, and in the entire trading system, human life was a very expensive exchange object.

If converted into equal value, each person can be consumed as 25 kilograms of gold.

For Albireo, this is definitely the best deal in the world. After all, no one cares about the lives of the indigenous people.

He broke the building, which cost 150 people, and the action of placing the broken part horizontally on its original surface cost 35 people.

But the effect displayed was outstanding. Albireo looked down at the city and smiled contemptuously at Ding Yue. A steel cage worth one person appeared out of thin air and enveloped him.

During the whole process, Ding Yue didn't make much resistance. He was indeed shocked by the player in front of him. He even equated him with an existence like the Seven Deadly Sins in his heart. After all, in the eyes of the world, the last person with

A person with such power to destroy heaven and earth is still greedy.

It wasn't until the steel cage landed safely on the ground that Ding Yue suddenly exerted force, bent the cage and got out. Gray-black flames burned around the cage, turning the cage into a pool of blood in the blink of an eye.

Ding Yue was a little confused about the changes in the cage. He only knew that he had better run quickly.

Albireo didn't care about Ding Yue's escape. Today he planned to show his strength to the world, especially the pioneers, so as to prevent them from overestimating their capabilities and causing trouble for him.

As Albireo waved his hands, concrete walls rose up around Ding Yue, and soon the height exceeded thirty meters. He created a patio-like area out of thin air, trapping Ding Yue in it.

Then he just looked at Ding Yue, waiting for him to escape again.

Albireo valued this body, and planned to polish the opponent's will to resist first, and then transform it into a body. Even if he spent thousands of people's reserves on this, in his opinion, he could kill two birds with one stone.

Ding Yue noticed the contempt in the other person's eyes, anger burned in his heart, and the gray-black flames of hatred gradually emerged outside his body.

If he was really a good gentleman, Tang Ji would not have turned him into a scarlet disciple in the first place. Ding Yue's character and emotions were just more restrained. In daily life, he rarely acted aggressively, even when he obtained

After gaining strength, he is still willing to live the life he is used to.

All the gangsters he had beaten up were targets that Ding Yue had weighed in his mind for a long time. He was certain that everyone deserved their punishment.

This is a kind of anger that is hidden behind humility and peace, but when Ding Yue really starts to get angry at someone or something, his anger also becomes more tenacious.

Ding Yue climbed up these walls with his bare hands, and the space in the center of the patio became smaller and smaller. Albireo held his fist, and the hollow in the middle of his hand gradually shrank like the patio itself.

Even if he continued to increase his speed, he could not match the speed of Albireo's fist. When Ding Yue was only a few meters away from the exit, he could already feel the friction on his back and sides of his arms.

Ding Yue jumped towards the entrance of the cave, and Albireo also took the time to clenched his fists hard!

He was just stuck in the middle of a high platform that appeared out of thin air, with only his head exposed.

Albireo landed in front of Ding Yue, looked at him from a distance of more than ten meters, and asked indifferently: "Who are you?"

"I am your uncle!" Ding Yue chuckled and struggled hard. The gray-black flames of hatred continued to melt the surrounding concrete into blood, but under Albireo's control, more concrete continued to pour in.

Maintaining a clampdown on Ding Yue.

"Your struggle and resistance are meaningless. I hold two hundred and nine thousand one hundred and forty-four men in my hands, and in the big battle just now, you only consumed two hundred and thirty-two." Albi

Leo shook his head: "I can spend a whole month with you."

Ding Yue suddenly stopped struggling. He looked at the concrete around him that was constantly being turned into blood by flames, and tried to complete what the other party said in his mind. Ding Yue, who was not highly educated, thought hard and couldn't figure out Albireo's ability.

What is.

But this did not prevent Ding Yue from gradually understanding what Albireo meant. Thousands of words finally turned into just one question: "Did you kill them all?"

Albireo nodded calmly. Only the property owned by the people he personally killed can be used as consumables. This is the basic principle of [Alchemy of Equivalent Exchange].
