Ten o'clock in the morning, Colorful Stone City, Bolbo Park.
Whenever there is a large-scale event that gathers people, people in the Xuanci State will choose to hold it in the park. This is because the park has minimal metalwork and the open space helps find every hidden magnetic line and deal with it promptly.
The lush park is bustling with people today. People who want to visit the art exhibition are entering in an orderly manner after security check. Almost 90% of the "artists" who are unemployed technicians are sitting or standing in front of their assigned booths, checking Wear uniformly distributed materials. Horn's booth was at the rear where it was not very eye-catching. He absentmindedly inspected the screws, metal plates, and colored magnets, and couldn't help but feel guilty.
The atmosphere feels very wrong. It is obviously an art exhibition set up for re-employment, why is it temporarily announced that robots will participate? They also used the slogan "Machines vs. Humans" in the show... They are just unemployed poor people, how can they represent human beings? Those bastards in the media industry push ordinary people to the forefront of public opinion just for the sake of topic and traffic!
Horn took a few deep breaths and reminded himself to stay calm. Technicians must have a heart as cold as steel so that they can make as few mistakes as possible. "Then it will officially start in 10 minutes! The three people who get the highest score within the allotted hour will receive generous bonuses from the sponsors. The first place will get 50,000 kilograms! Everyone is ready Really..." He ignored the chattering host and focused on the material. If you want to build a more interesting piece of art, just build a shotgun. No one hates weapons... You can make some engravings that children like on the barrel...
Tourists coming and going hid under the green shade to enjoy the coolness, and people's discussions created a lot of noise. "Is it possible?" "Sam might be able to take first place." "I used to be a pacesetter in the industry..." "But a brand-new skillful hand is also participating." The white six-armed mantis robot showed off its power on the best booth. , attracting the attention and admiration of tourists. "...The second place also gets a bonus of 10,000 yuan." "Don't worry about that, forget about it." "... Let's start!"
Horn used his prosthetic body to twist a moderate green magnetic line and began to piece together his own shotgun. All participating technicians calmed down and did what they were doing according to the default rules. For the sake of safety, you must never interfere with technicians at work. This is an iron law in the industry.
[In view of the general environment,
"One sixth complete!"
But, actually! In the tenth minute, the white skillful robot broke the rules and announced its progress with a loud electronic sound! As if to show off, it lifted up its semi-finished product, which was a dangerous mace made of many steel nails!
"How handsome!" "What a speed." "What a skillful person." The laymen's admiration rang out one after another. "Damn it!" Laud, who was further behind, cursed. His newly formed ax collapsed due to his distracted mistake, and the flying metal pieces stabbed his face. Horn sat quietly at his work.
"One-third completed!" Ten minutes later, the skillful robot announced loudly again! It makes a dangerous helmet made of metal fragments! Horn's shotgun was just about to be finished when he gulped. "Damn it!" "You're so noisy, you bastard!" "Get that mechanical idiot out of here!" Three more people made mistakes, and the unfinished product exploded from the inside, cutting their skin. The big bosses passing by the booth all looked disappointed. Horn's hands trembled slightly.
A person stopped by Horn's booth. He was the gray-haired man with glasses who had bought a rabbit before. Horn put down the unfinished shotgun and took a slow, deep breath.
"Don't be nervous, sir." The man reassured, "This is not a competition. If you lose, you won't pay any money."
"I know." Horn continued to take a deep breath. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out. "I have to stay calm. This job is very dangerous. Making mistakes during real work can lead to big problems. You must be careful before you start."
The gray-haired young man was looking at the surrounding environment, and his eyes reminded Horn of an eagle flying in the wilderness.
"This is really strange. You have such a stable psychological quality, why do you make mistakes one after another on small occasions like today?"
The gray-haired young man walked away, and Horn broke into a cold sweat. That person was right. Technicians shouldn't have such a mistake rate. Such careless people can't even get out of the academy. This doesn't make sense!
"Half completed!" The robot in the distance completed something new, but Horn didn't look at it. He pretended to continue piecing together the shotgun, with a nervous expression as if something was about to go wrong, but in reality he was observing his side carefully and intently. There is nothing unusual in the magnetic field lines... Technicians are most familiar with magnetic field lines, there is no way they can be mistaken. Look at the things in your hands, colored stones, screws, nuts, black sand...
"...!"
He saw it, it was inconspicuous iron sand! They were not pulled by the magnetic lines, but attached to the metal from a hidden direction, and gathered together inside the shotgun, forming the shape of a dangerous shuriken in an instant. The shotgun collapsed from within! The iron sand shuriken dispersed after completing the destruction!
The gray-haired young man came back at some point. Horn said incoherently: "There is iron sand...the iron sand is in the machine!"
"I saw it." The young man nodded, "Remember your professional qualities? Don't make any noise and stay calm."
·
Five kilometers away from Bolbo Park, on the roof of the Y·C Industrial Headquarters Building.
The hot summer wind blows on the top of the empty building. At first glance, it is just an inconspicuous corner in the sky above Caishi City. However, if you have the observation ability to penetrate the optical camouflage equipment, you can find that there is a senior ninja lurking in the corner of the rooftop. He held a sniper rifle with an unusually long barrel with a precision far exceeding that of a military sniper. What was shot from the muzzle was Zero Island's cold weapon, the shuriken!
look! The shurikens made of iron sand shone with faint electric light. They dispersed in the wind into invisible grains of gravel. They quickly arrived at the event site five thousand meters away, where they were re-condensed and formed inside the artwork, completing the process. Invisible destruction. This jaw-dropping precision and control are exactly the combination of ninja skills and cutting-edge technology completed in a foreign country. Corporate ninja Thunder was looking for the next target at the perfect sniper spot. He locked onto a magnetic hedgehog and pulled the trigger.
The iron sand shuriken was shot out at an even faster speed than a bullet, and scattered in the wind... However, the iron sand that once escaped took shape again! The black shuriken stood still in front of the scope. At the same moment, a strange greeting sounded from behind the ninja.
"Do, first time meeting. I am the demon of the Sky City."
Thunder lifted off his optical disguise like lightning, jumped up on his handspring, stood still, clasped his hands and returned the greeting: "Do, first time meeting. I am Thunder from Y·C Industries!"
Lei Ming wore an alloy battle armor of unknown material. The outer armor was made up of small pieces of metal that looked like dragon scales, and his helmet was as ferocious as a dragon's head with an open mouth. Gongsun Ce stood on the other side of the rooftop, casually throwing the black shuriken, and praised: "It's a very good piece of equipment. I encountered this on Ling Island, it will definitely make me suffer a lot."
"Majin=san is joking." Lei Ming put on a karate stance meticulously, "For you who defeated the evil spirit with a red mouth, a mere ninja tool is actually nothing."
"Then why don't you go to the venue with me now and explain it?"
"I'm sorry, but I obey." Lei Ming formed a seal with his hands, "As fast as the wind and as moving as thunder. A strange appearance appears, and the sky-piercing blade screams divine thunder!"
The declaration was completed and the light flashed. The ninja's body and armor changed together, becoming a lightning elemental body formed only of energy. Thunder's hands turned into blades condensed by lightning in a flash of light. The ninja rushes forward like an electromagnetic gun, slashing at the opponent with a thunder blade!
"Ea-!"
Thunder, who has completed the transformation of the elemental body, has a speed that surpasses the wind as he declared. The strike, which was comparable to lightning, was faster than the sound, but failed to achieve any real impact. Gongsun Ce sidestepped like a prophet, and the electric blade only touched his afterimage!
The cassock chop after the vertical chop was also avoided by the young man with strange steps. After two probing chops, Lei Ming used continuous back handsprings to widen the distance. Gongsun Ce did not take action, only smiled and said: "Can it be faster?"
The ninja's competitive spirit burned quietly. "You are really underestimated." Lei Ming ended his stupid idea of testing. He exploded with the ultimate power of this body and turned into a bunch of golden thunder like a ninja.
. Gongsun Ce also increased his speed and became a gray phantom high in the sky.
The afterimages of gold and gray exchanged several times in an instant, and they left the roof of the Y·C Industrial Building in a second, flying high in the city like two dragons. One moment they were standing on the glass wall of the building, and the next moment they were walking through the busy streets. In just three minutes, their battlefield has passed through more than half of the city. Not a single citizen noticed the extremely fast battle happening around them. In their eyes, it was like a light spot when they closed their eyes, a fleeting moment in the complex city. Two flashes of lightning passed away.
Lei Ming had entered an overloaded state 3 seconds ago. He expected to squeeze the aura and body to suppress the enemy for even a moment, but Gongsun Ce's speed only continued to rise as he accelerated. This young man's strength was as powerful as his illustrious Prestige is generally bottomless. The ninja was not injured, and his elemental body allowed him to avoid the projection of telekinesis and white matter, but he knew in his heart that he had lost. Because their battle was almost at that point, but it did not cause any damage to the surrounding environment.
The young man was powerful enough to smooth out sonic booms while fighting at top speed. The devil can easily defeat him without using the impermanence method!
The night before the action, Lei Ming told the president that everyone has limits. Now he saw his end with crystal clear clarity. The limit is this kind of thing, like a board hanging above your head, it seems that you can reach it as long as you work hard. But no matter how hard you try, that board will always be a little far away from you... It's not until you are tired, tired, and discouraged that you finally understand that that seemingly small point is actually the infinity of heaven and earth. .
Infinity cannot be crossed.
"call……"
Lei Ming stopped and breathed heavily. They returned to the roof of the Y·C Industrial Building. Gongsun Ce was still holding the shuriken in his hand, and the chase for several minutes seemed like an illusion.
"That's it for now, Lei Ming=san." Gongsun Ce put his hand in his pocket, "Don't use that thing on you. I don't know if it's telepathic weaponry or some black technology, but it's not something you can afford. s things."
Thunder's alloy armor has streaks of lightning running through it, as dangerous as an overcharged crystal mine. The ninja stood still and took off his mask, revealing a weathered face of a middle-aged man.
"Majin=san...how old are you this year?" the ninja suddenly asked.
"It's two months until I turn 20."
"You are so young!" Ninja exclaimed, "I became a trance when I was 24 years old, and was praised as a genius by my teacher. When I was 29 years old, I made a breakthrough and became a master on Zero Island. At that time, I thought that in the next ten years, I would be a genius. Ten years will be my era. I will follow this momentum and continue to move upward, reaching higher places faster than anyone else...
But after that, I hit my limit. It was difficult to advance in karate practice, and the state of impermanence was stuck in manifesting. I stood still in a position that I was once proud of, witnessing one after another people younger than me crossing the realm that I could not reach and heading to a higher world.
Three or five years passed like this. When I entered middle age, I suddenly realized that I was already being eliminated by the times, just like a technician who was eliminated by robots. This is not because I am not good enough, but because there are so many young people who are better than me. Many years later, people will still talk about Tianji, Mingke, and you, but no one will remember that there is a ninja in the manifest state named Lei Ming. This is the era. No matter how hard you struggle to resist, you cannot escape its torrent. "
Gongsun Ce listened quietly. He noticed that there was a samurai sword on Lei Ming's waist, but he never used it once. Lei Ming showed a shuriken in his hand.
"This shuriken and this speed are technologies that can only be achieved in the Magnet State. Without the special magnetic environment, it is meaningless." Thunder turned the shuriken back into iron sand, "I am not willing to be eliminated, I want to I became stronger than before, so I traveled far away and came to this place that was most suitable for me to exert my strength. When I ran for the first time in Xianci State, I shouted with joy. Here I surpassed what I had on Zero Island. At the limit, I thought I won...but I was still easily suppressed like today. I didn't touch the board after all, I just stood on tiptoe to deceive myself."
Lei Ming slowly stroked the handle of his saber. He raised his hand and touched the mechanism beside the helmet. The open dragon's mouth instantly bit down, sealing his face inside, like a giant dragon devouring stupid humans.
"I'm 43 years old this year, and I won't be able to hold a knife steadily in a few years. Before that, I really want to take a look... what the world is like behind that board!"
Lei Ming pressed the switch in his heart, and the violent power stored in the armor poured into his heart endlessly. His thinking speeded up at an indescribable speed, and everything in front of him turned into a formless light. His thoughts melted into the amorphous light, rushing forward with the light, breaking through the infinite imprisonment like thunder.
It is as if a warrior who climbed to the top of the mountain saw the sunrise, as if an explorer seeking a secret place finally walked out of the narrow cave, and everything in front of him suddenly became clear. The vast world that he could never imagine in the past was now actually conveyed to Thunder's senses. His existence became huge, his perception became vast, and he truly became the thunder of his dream...like the thunder of God that penetrates the heaven and earth!
[Pinglongji·Thunder Angel, officially launched]
A cold mechanical sound flashed past, thunder exploded in reality, and boundless clouds formed in the clear sky. Lei Ling's body was alienated by the inhuman roar, and he turned into a beam of symbolic thunder. Thunder flew into the dark clouds and changed into its true appearance. It was a snake-like slender thunder dragon, with a colorful halo of light above its head, like an angel's halo. Its long body coiled in the clouds, and its roar turned into thunder on the ground!
The weather in Caishi City changed from clear skies to thunderstorms, and the chaotic power spread from the city to the entire Cai Shi State. The originally stable magnetic lines danced wildly like snakes, and thick thunder light illuminated people's astonished faces.
Gongsun Ce stood alone in the chaotic thunderstorm, his sighs were drowned by the thunder.
"So you can't practice in a hurry...if you are too anxious, you will fall into the devil's trap."
He condensed a spiral spear in the palm of his hand, and the power that exploded in an instant tore through the clouds and shot towards the angel's dragon body!
