[Sync rate: 44%]

[Pyroxene currency (within the period): -4500 (see medical insurance for bill details)]
A full six hours have passed since Meteor started VR training.
He has been fighting two typical people, but he can't get past this level. If you look at the statistics of combat records, he can indeed defeat an enemy in a single fight. If he performs exceptionally, he can remain unscathed. , but facing two enemies at the same time, the situation took a turn for the worse.
As the saying goes - two fists are no match for four hands.
If there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, it is indeed possible to defeat one enemy with many, and many methods can be used to destroy the enemy's will to fight, and use terrain advantages to avoid the numerical disadvantage gap.
However, there is no such thing as a "breakdown of will" among the violent organizations of the Shinto people. They are not afraid of death.
With the blessing of pyroxene and spiritual body, Meteor's elemental output is similar to that of the Executioner. In terms of individual combat effectiveness alone, the two are very close.
Once the battle situation becomes one versus two, it will become one-sided. Meteor simply cannot deal with two cyborgs who are connected to each other on the same level in such a narrow space.
They cooperate with each other tacitly, making almost no mistakes in positioning, and the continuous offensive becomes closer. Once they start to be passively beaten, Ah Xing's escape space becomes smaller and smaller.
In the first hour, Meteor had almost no strength to fight back. He would be cut into pieces by the execution sword in less than fifteen seconds.
By the second hour, his mental state became even worse. Most of the time, he would cut the enemy's sword into two pieces with just one move. He could no longer maintain the most basic concentration.
The situation improved in the third hour. He seemed to be gradually adapting to the combined attacks of the two enemies. The number on the timer also slowly increased, from half a minute to one minute. In the end, he lasted for a full minute and 45 seconds. Only then did he surrender his life.
At the fourth hour, the boy shriveled up again, as if he had returned all the things he had just learned to the teacher. He had forgotten all about how to step aside and how to escape to save his life. If he wanted to use Mingde's bones to fight back, he would immediately lose his life.
In the fifth hour, he exploded with astonishing combat effectiveness, almost dealing with the enemy's offensive by exchanging injuries for injuries. If he couldn't deal with two at the same time, then kill one of them as quickly as possible, and then deal with the other one.
This tactical idea really helped Meteor open up the situation, but every time he had to entrust his life to the goddess of luck. If there were any deviations during the execution, he would not survive.
At the sixth hour, Asing entered a state of sleepwalking again. Ishimura Sendou repeatedly restarted VR to repair the warrior's soft body. He saw Asing rush into the training room without hesitation, his eyes were clear and full of courage, to decadent and fearful. Completely defeated, this round was over in just a few seconds.
"Abu Ryusei..." Sentou Ishimura was waiting anxiously outside the room, muttering Ah Xing's real name silently.
The dying old man marveled at the resilience of Meteor. He had only heard of the nameless deeds in myths and legends. In the historical stories of the underground world, these warriors who had never seen the beginning or end of the dragon had never failed.
But Bu Liuxing has been killed more than 4,000 times now, and his fastest defeat only took 1.75 seconds.
"Let the hot air help you?!" Qiantang reminded kindly: "Let the hot air turn on your pain suppressor?"
The pain suppressor is a protective measure of the venom mechanism.
It can protect Homo sapiens from pain, eliminate pain in extreme environments, and allow the host's nerves to work normally regardless of pain.
Eight years ago, when Jiang Xueming began to forge his body, he made it clear to Meteor that pain was a terrible enemy. Severe pain would cause muscle spasms, make the brain lose consciousness, cause vomiting in pain, and make people weak. , and eventually lost the will to fight.
But Jiang Xueming never meant to cut off the pain nerves. Pain is a protective mechanism. Xueming's ability to endure pain is extraordinary, and the same is true for Meteor - his eldest brother has almost taught him how to fight pain.
"No need! Sentou!"
Bu Liuxing had just lost his head and was resurrected from the birth point again. This time he did not rush into the door to die, but sat down cross-legged menacingly.
"Refeng, bring out the information I compiled."
[no problem. ]
Meteor's mouth was filled with anger and he held his hands, as if he had been greatly wronged.
"How long has it been?"
[It's the seventh hour, boy. ]
A bright projection light source burst out from his right arm, and many graphic and text data were projected on the floor. It was the wound data left by Ah Xing's more than 4,000 deaths, including the cutting depth of the blade, fatal and non-fatal injuries, and the condition of each limb. The hurt is clear.
Ah Xing lowered his head and muttered silently according to the picture and text information.
"The exoskeleton nerve center of these iron lumps is their weak point. The alloy steel shell from the back to the cerebellum can paralyze them instantly as long as it is broken."
"But how do you get to this thing?"
"If it's one versus two all the time, it's hard for me to find a chance to get behind them."
"If I want to seize the center line, penetrate their thick chests, and penetrate this nano-armor, I need Beloberg, but Beloberg is on Brother Lang - in fact, I even lost the Iron Knight. The cane is no longer with me."
"Are you going to rely on fists to decide the outcome? If you don't have a weapon in your hand, your bare hands will be like a lamb falling into a tiger's mouth..."
Ishimura Qiandang asked tremblingly: "Bu Liuxing, do you want to take a rest first?"
"Old man! I'm already resting!" Bu Liuxing roared loudly, seeming to be very irritable: "I'm already resting!"
Mr. Qiantang was so frightened that he couldn't help but take two steps back. It was hard for him to imagine what changes had taken place in this young man's inner world——
——For six long hours, the nameless warrior was in the Hell of the Mountain of Swords, and the pain he suffered before each death was firmly hammered into his nervous system.
"Meteor... Do you really want to rely on your mortal body to deal with these two executioners head-on?" Sentou Ishimura half-jokingly smiled awkwardly: "Refeng himself can't do such a thing... .Although he is right, the Shinto people will not talk to you about martial ethics - if you go to the electronics museum to rob something, you will definitely be besieged, you can escape..."
"Grandpa Qiantang!" Meteor was very excited. He grabbed his messy hair and shouted loudly: "I have escaped!"
Qiando: "Escaped?"
Meteor nodded vigorously.
"Ah! I have escaped countless times!"
"In the VR training ground, I lost so many times! I escaped so many times!"
"Every time I fail, I will be depressed and I will have an inexplicable feeling of grievance!"
Meteor clenched his fists——
"——Why? I hate losing! I hate losing all the time! Why are these two annoying guys so fast? Is there really no way I can win? Could it be that the only difference between me and them is to install modules? How to make up for it?"
[Boy, I advise you to transform your body as soon as possible. There is no harm in installing some modules. You can also use the essence of the holy beast to defeat these enemies. ]
Meteor shook his head vigorously.
"No! I don't want this!"
"Whether it's hardware prosthetics or software prosthetics, these are all products of Shinto City. How dare I even think about using something made by the enemy to defeat the enemy?"
[it's up to you...]
"If you are afraid of pain, don't feel pain. If your fists and feet are not as good as theirs, replace your limbs with steel. If your weapons can't compare, then replace them with more powerful weapons. Can these be bought with the memories in my head? In the end - —Am I going to become a [typical person] too?! Do you want me to become like you? Hot Wind!?"
Meteor gritted his teeth and regained some strength from the torture of nerve damage. He still muttered silently and reviewed the details of the game.
"The speed of escaping definitely cannot keep up with the explosive power they showed when they suddenly started. I can make an effective judgment only in the first six rounds - because in the first six rounds, the attack routes of the two executioners were in the same direction. "
"Bu Liuxing, you have to remember, you must remember..."
"The two electronic brains have twenty-one initial decisions. They can cooperate with each other to attack me from the same position. There are only twenty-one combinations. After six rounds, three will be derived based on my dodge direction. One hundred and seventy-seven different variations.”
“I need to note these situations and then explore more possibilities.”
"But this way of solving problems is too inefficient, Meteor, you must first remember the most basic action models of these artificial intelligences. Their arm span and leg length are all carved from the same mold. They are the children of Hot Wind. "
"Then forget your previous problem-solving ideas. This is what you did before."
Meteor babbled the warning to himself, emphasizing it repeatedly.
"You get stronger every hour, and you have to learn it all over again every hour."
"If the starting positions change and they are not side by side but one behind the other, my chances of winning will be even lower."
"So Bu Liuxing, put aside your dependence on the thinking path, and don't memorize the moves - you are not fighting the executioner! You are fighting yourself!"
"You are stronger than a minute ago, you are stronger than the last second..."
"Every breath you take, you have to get stronger, faster than the AI can learn."
Ishimura Sendo opened his mouth slightly and looked at this boy in surprise, unable to say anything.
Bu Liuxing has a strong learning ability. These six years in the library have changed him into a reckless man with enhanced intelligence.
"The only thing that is uncertain..." Meteor looked at his right arm: "It's this arm. The ups and downs of my spirit body are definitely related to you, Refeng."
He observed the display panel of the venom mechanism. One of the values was called [synchronization rate]. This value refers to the synchronization rate between Riemann's thinking model and Homo sapiens.
The artificial intelligence of the venom mechanism is usually an electronic brain created by scanning the human brain.
Meteor's electronic brain should also be the venom scan of Meteor's body, a ghost created by Meteor's head - it should be another Ah Xing, able to take over Ah Xing's body according to the synchronization rate and help Ah Xing work. When Ah Xing was sleeping, when he entered the [Elysium Space], he continued to use his body in the real world to carry out production activities.
The synchronization rate is very important to the people of Shinto City. It is like the integration of spirit and body emphasized in psychic technology. Only when the spirit body and the physical body are synchronized can the soul power be summoned to help.
Except for extremely special cases like Jiang Xueming and Jason Megan, all other VIPs have the ability to command soul power and use it as a second limb.
At this moment, Meteor seemed to be possessed by hot wind - he had gained a strong arm, but it was difficult to keep pace with the spirit body, and it became difficult to call the spirit body to support the battle.
The existence of venom is like installing a psychic controller on people. The black stone controls people's spiritual bodies. The Riemann thinking model created has psychic qualities and is an inferior [standard soul power]—— Even if you lose consciousness temporarily, as long as the synchronization rate is high enough, the ghost in the body can still take over the physical body and continue to act.
After thinking about it, Meteor discussed with the undead living in his arm.
"Now you have to listen to me! Hot Wind!"
[What? ! Do you want to be the boss? ! ]
Meteor: "You have to believe me, I'm stronger than you."
[ha! This is interesting! This young man...]
"I know your pain, and I have seen part of your memory." Meteor tilted his mouth and put on a sinister expression: "You live in my veins, and you are searching for the memories in my mind all the time - -right?"
[Yes...]
"Then you should also know that I am the only one who can help you. Now I have changed my mind." Bu Liuxing clenched his fists, "I want to smash this city to pieces as you do. But the picture we imagined seems a bit wrong. Same."
[Well...]
Meteor gestured confidently with his middle finger and controlled his right arm to make an international friendly gesture.
"You must be an old man in his eighties or nineties, Refeng. I don't know much about you, but I can vaguely piece together a complete story."
"You are a warrior, and you have a lot of fame. Many people regard you as a great leader."
"Due to various reasons, your city was tormented by natural and man-made disasters and had to fall into the hands of artificial intelligence. Under the management of artificial intelligence, people have indeed survived, and they are rich in material and have no worries about food and clothing."
"But they also fell into this hell woven by the Shinto people and became ghosts who will never be reincarnated. Brother Ping An told me that you can do as much as you have the ability."
"If you are not capable enough and want to forcefully intervene in other people's karma and retribution, you will suffer the consequences. You are causing trouble for yourself."
"But I'm a born arrogant person!"
Meteor gestured with his thumb with his left hand and nodded his nose gently.
"Frustrations and tribulations are nothing to me. Can you really endure the kind of VR training just now? You probably won't be able to bear it if you die a few times! But I can grit my teeth and persevere! My willpower is very strong Unusual! Originally I just wanted to complete my trial mission and bring Ah Hei and Ping An back to the station, but now it’s different, I want to carry your mission on my back too!"
"But I think differently from you - you just want to bury the past and destroy this history, and never want to let these souls rest in peace. You have no compassion, no compassion, and no love, just like you As I said, you are a lonely ghost, so you have to listen to me."
"Whether it's ordinary Homo sapiens, typical people, or atypical people, artificial intelligence with personality or something else, even virtual lives in electronic museums, I think they should all have a complete life - no [ Life without death is incomplete.”
"Legion Commander of the Foehn Chapter, do you know who I am? It is your honor to fight alongside me, because when I come, you don't have to be timid or fearful - everything will be fine."
[You are so damn arrogant...]
"I have done what you can't do." Bu Liuxing raised his eyebrows and laughed: "My friends and I defeated more than three hundred war gangs of the Crazy Butterfly Holy Cult, and destroyed countless religious groups. The boss was originally going to give I designed a set of medals attire, but because there were too many medals to fit in, Brother Ming and I rejected this useless ceremony - you should know this."
[That's right...]
"So you have to listen to me, I am an expert in combat." Meteor retracted his middle finger and glanced at the display panel on his right arm, which showed that the [synchronization rate] was rising visibly to the naked eye.
Ishimura Qiandang couldn't hear the sound of hot wind. The old man only knew that Bu Liuxing said something inexplicable to Yigu's arm, and then he saw the boy taking off his clothes.
Meteor took off his shirt, threw away the iron knight, and continued training with his bare hands and shirtless——
——The cane was originally his only weapon. After so many repeated trials, Meteor decided in his heart that this thing had become a burden. If he did not put down the weapon and fight with his spirit body, he would not be able to complete his self-breakthrough.
"It's very quiet..."
"Refeng, you are cuter when you don't talk."
The rhodonite in the venom mechanism of his right arm began to burst into flames.
"Spirit! Answer me!"
Meteor raised his arm and punched, and a bright red armor-covered arm followed the punch and suddenly poked out of his skin.
The bright red armor features are part of the spirit body of Meteor——
"——Success! It's on call!"
Ishimura Sendou was nervous and excited. Although he didn't know what happened, judging from the momentum expressed by the boy, he looked like a brave man who had defeated his inner demons and was about to start the first round again.
"Do you want to continue? Boy!"
The same tattoo as Xueming's is branded on Meteor's back, which is the character "Fate Favors the Brave".
Ah Xing did not look back and gave a thumbs up gesture behind him.
"I suffered so much just to say this sentence - what Brother Ming told me before is the confidence and arrogance that I can't envy."
"I am now! Very strong!"
...
...
Sendou Ishimura once again started the battle simulation program and opened the door of the beast cage.
Fifteen seconds later, Meteor died again——
——Qiantang is still surprised. This kid just said so many lofty words, but this is the result?
But when Shi Cun came back to his senses, he realized that this time was different.
Meteor was much faster. He took off his clothes and threw away his cane without hesitation. He was almost unaffected by the nerve damage caused by the defeat and hurried towards the battlefield.
...
...
The two executioners arrived as promised, and the fighting phase began again.
Meteor opened his arms step by step. Except for the two arms, the illusory spirit body had already grown half of its torso and was about to have a complete upper body.
Tough steel can only be made by hard work. Failure is not terrible. The sharpening of the file will only make him stronger and stronger.
...
...
Seven hours and fifty-four minutes——
——Ishimura Sendou’s eyes widened as he saw the timer’s numbers breaking records again and again.
This time the anonymous warrior persisted for more than four minutes, and he was unarmed, having to deal with two fully armed typical men.
"Everyone-", the kill alarm sounded, and Sendou Ishimura instinctively wanted to restart the VR and prepare to welcome the new Aryusei.
But then another kill alarm made Ishimura's brain shut down, and he seemed unable to understand what happened in that practice room...
A bloody arm climbed up the high wall of the room. Ah Xing climbed up to the outer eaves of the cage and sat there. He held a fresh vertebrae and carried the executioner's exoskeleton nerve center, almost combining the artificial nerves and the iron shell. Fold together into several sections.
"Three! Give me three next time!"
After Meteor said this, there was fierce fire in his eyes. The bright red humanoid spirit body stood beside him, and the limbs and joints of the armor and stomach on his body were like a unicorn——
- They were motionless.
