Under the clear sky, brown rocks vibrated, breaking through the fertile land like drills, becoming towering peaks reaching into the clouds. The mountains that emerged from the ground caused dramatic changes in the terrain. The soil and rocks rushed down from the rise of the mountains, flooding the driveway across the wilderness. Weatherlight accelerated quickly before the debris flow arrived, and avoided the landslide with an elegant trajectory.
The Wawu on the trunk was so frightened that he covered his eyes with his paws. Gongsun Ce, who was driving today, raised his voice: "What kind of strange landform is this?"
"This is a living mountain." Dawn Knight in the passenger seat made a popular science statement. "In the Living Mountain State, mountains emerge from the ground and move from time to time, so local residents often migrate during their sleep."
"This sounds worse than Renyu, right? Why are they reluctant to move?"
"The land in this state is fertile due to its landscape. The Living Mountain State is the largest granary in the northern continent."
Gongsun Ce originally planned to stay in the Blade Rain State for a few more days and use the local legends of saints to repair the Holy Grail, but Alandia argued that this was of little significance, so he only collected some Blade Rain as possible materials. sample and embarked on a new journey.
Now that both Gongsun Ce and Qin Qianbai have returned to normal, it is no longer necessary to drive for a trip. However, due to the sudden incident, the Morning Star was still stuck at the airport in the Sour Valley State, and everyone had to drive a shortcut to get back their ship.
There are many automated farms in the Living Mountain State, but due to the landscape, there are few people. There were no small towns or villages near this route. Seeing that the landslide would not stop for a while, Gongsun Ce simply drove the car into a forest far away from the active mountain-prone area. He turned around and asked, "Take a break or continue?"
"I want to explore in the forest!" Qiluo was very interested.
So the Weatherlight stopped by a creek. Qiluo and Shigurei carried two white baskets and went to the forest to find berries that they didn't know existed. Qin Qianbai made a harpoon and fished beside the creek. The Dawn Rider took out the folding whiteboard from the trunk during his break and began to write and draw in the forest.
"Please, Alandia." Gongsun Ce felt powerless, "We finally came to the forest."
Alandia said matter-of-factly: "This is no excuse to avoid studying. You can enjoy camping after completing your studies."
"Thank you, I'm not in the mood anymore." Gongsun Ce covered his face, "Do you know that if you continue like this, you will become one of those commentators in animations? Everyone is annoyed by that kind of character because they just open their mouths and start talking. A setting that no one cares about.”
"It sounds like those in the audience don't like studying." Alandia said, "Please sit down now and get ready for class."
When Yu Ling and Qi Luo came back with half a basket of pitiful berries, what they saw was a white board erected in the forest and a few temporary white stools. Qiluo whispered: "She can be called the atmosphere destroyer."
"She must have been unpopular in the kingdom back then." Rei Shigure whispered loudly, "No one played with her."
"Hey hey hey, I'm listening."
The two childish crew members each took a violent bite from the captain. Qin Qianbai, who came back from the river, reluctantly put down the fish in his hands and made a mental note of the "oil dip" reservation.
The topic of Alandia's teaching this time is still "The Road to Creation". She wrote "Hengli" on the far left and "Power" in the middle.
"During the incident in Blade Rain State, Miss Shigure gained power, so in this lesson we will explain the basic concepts of power to her." Alandia said, "Miss Shigure, would you mind sharing your experience with everyone? "
"I don't mind...I didn't realize that I had power at all." Rei Shigure said blankly, "I don't have that real feeling of 'great increase in strength'. After doing the Qianye Jutsu, I felt more like It feels like I have a sure-kill move.”
"This is normal, because power is not a state but a means." Dawn Knight said, "Starting from the existing examples and analyzing it, how is the spell to end Qianye's dream story constructed and what is its function?"
Rei Shigure walked to the whiteboard and took the black pen from her hand. She drew a big circle on the whiteboard and wrote "Fairy Tale".
"I am Huanyue Zun from the Dream Country, and what I am best at using is fairy tale memes. The techniques I developed before - the 'Straw Rich Man' that displaces weapons, the 'Mirror Shield' that uses mirrors to distort space for protection, And the 'Tamatabox' of rapid aging attacks - all based on these fairy tale memes."
Rei Shigure drew small circles inside the big circle of fairy tales, and wrote the names of fairy tales such as Straw Rich Man and Urashima Taro. She then drew a grimace with teeth and claws on the empty space and marked it "Black Fairy Tale".
"And the black fairy tale technique used by that idiot specifically uses bloody, violent, and vulgar means to taint fairy tale memes, which is equivalent to polluting my dreamland from the roots. I must find a way to take back the 'control' of the technique. , and knocked down his dark fairy tale from its roots." Shigure Rei created the thick big book in his hands, "So I created this symbolic spell specifically for the decisive battle based on One Thousand and One Nights. You know Features of the book, right?”
"I understand." Gongsun Ce pondered, "One Thousand and One Nights is a collection of stories told by characters in the book, so you can stuff all the power you have as a 'story' to isolate pollution. You You can have Little Red Riding Hood tell the story of Snow White, have Snow White tell the story of the Little Mermaid, and all these memes are focused and their power becomes stronger because of it.”
"Yes, that makes it difficult for black fairy tales to be polluted." Shigure Rei said happily, "And One Thousand and One Nights has another interesting feature. At the end of this story, the cruel king was killed by the woman Qianye Moved by the stories told, he changed his ways and became a virtuous king. This made violence in reality become part of the fairy tale, and evil was transformed into beauty. If you combine this transformation feature with my narcissus..."
Shigure Rei thickened the big circle of "Fairy Tale", erased the grimace that represented the dark fairy tale, and painted a new smiling face.
"The bloody violence in black fairy tales can also be brought under my control." Rei Shigure put down his black pen and ruffled his long hair proudly, "Now I am the witch who dominates fairy tales, and no one can use dreams to control them." The power attacks me."
Qin Qianbai and Qi Luo whispered to each other: "There is only one thing left to say, Huhu, she is the image of an irritating young lady..." "Next time, say hello to her as Gui'an, use Gui'an."
"You, the real lady, are so embarrassed to say that!"
Shigure Rei threw the black pen hard, but the eldest lady caught it with two fingers. She threw the black pen back to the Dawn Knight, who had adapted to this unconventional and joyful atmosphere and continued to explain as if nothing had happened: "Miss Shigure gathered many memetic thoughts into a complex concept. The Thousand Nights Technique expresses this concept powerfully. What does this remind you of?"
An idea flashed in Gongsun Ce's mind, and he suddenly realized: "Use fruits to spell the galaxy?"
This method of gathering sand into a tower is exactly the same as the symbolic technique that Alandia talked about. The Dawn Knight smiled in approval.
"Absolutely correct. This complex symbolism unites all the memetic thoughts within the scope. It can influence and control all characteristics within the scope of the concept. It can not only assist itself, but also counter the enemy's attacks. , so we gave it such a resounding name, 'Power'. There is this description in the notes of the 24th generation leader of the Knights: 'It is like the supreme scepter of the gods, which can dominate all spells below it. with strength'."
This time everyone looked at Qiluo, who was paying attention to the lecture. The girl with twin ponytails said blankly: "A high-level collection that encompasses most memes, and administrator rights based on this collection?"
"It's very similar, but not exactly. Authority is broader than pure authority." Alandia drew a burning fire on the whiteboard, "Let's take the authority of fire as an example. What can it affect? "
Gongsun Ce thought of the scene where Master Chi was robbed of his power, and guessed: "Most of the natural combustion phenomena, and there are also spells that use flames as expressions? For example, my Nirvana and Master Chi's fire."
"Keep going deeper."
Gongsun Ce scratched his head: "The sun is a burning fireball, so it can also affect sun-related spells?"
"Of course, it can." The Dawn Knight drew a stick-like sun above the flames. "You can see from this that the scope of power is quite wide. In actual combat, we can also modify the other party's spells to meet the needs of our own power. Take advantage of the conditions.”
Qin Qianbai thoughtfully said: "Teacher Alandia, I feel that power is a very excessive ability. If the holder of power uses a set of self-defined..."
"Please stop thinking, Miss Qin." Alandia warned, "Further thinking will be harmful and unhelpful to you, please control your thoughts."
Gongsun Ce easily put a few big locks on his thinking. He was already very familiar with this routine. Qin Qianbai is not very good at this aspect. Looking at her expression of being speechless, you can tell that the child is still thinking about it. He quickly helped change the topic: "Isn't this too foul to say that? Zero's dream power can even affect the cruel traits in reality. How can I beat her with ordinary magic?"
"Ah la la, now do you know the absolute difference in strength between us?" Rei Shigure proudly said with his head held high, "It seems that you are still quite far away from me, big sister~~"
This complacent look is really irritating, even more irritating than when the eldest lady is at her most extreme!
"Yes, yes, you are powerful now..." Gongsun Ce's eyes twitched. He was about to retort when he saw the eldest lady on the side raising her hand. It seemed that she had successfully attracted attention to this new topic and had some thoughts of her own.
"How about preparing a machine gun for A Ce?" Qin Qianbai said.
The two world-creating level warriors were stunned when they heard this. Huanyue Zun laughed and said: "What modern weapons can do to my majestic world-creating magic user..."
Qin Qianbai said seriously: "It's about the memetic mind as a spell. The power of dreams can affect memes related to fantasy and fairy tales. But it is based on old stories and should not be able to control modern machines such as machine guns, pistols, and prosthetics. Technology, right?”
"..." "..."
Gongsun Ce and Shi Yurei looked at someone's right arm at the same time, and the next second they both stepped back a few meters in unison. "End Qianye's fantasy!" Shigurei preemptively called out the powerful book of defense. Gongsun Ce turned his right arm into a prosthetic cannon and shouted with a wild laugh: "I'll be struck by the mark of my suffering!"
The charging bar of the prosthetic cannon was filled instantly, and blood-red magic flow erupted from the muzzle, easily penetrating the defense of the Dream Book like a phantom, and hit Rei Shigure in the chest.
"Ah, it hurts!"
Lord Huanyuezun fell backwards, his screams as loud as if he had stepped on two LeX blocks. Kirara quickly helped her fall and said sadly: "How could it be possible? Rei Shigure's LP has returned to 0!"
Gongsun Ce spread his hands and laughed loudly: "Jie hahaha! Huanyue Zun, how do you feel, how do you feel? Hey, don't kick people, you look like you are cheating even if you lose!"
Shigurei kicked him in the stomach and said angrily: "There's no reason, why doesn't it affect him at all?"
"Just as Miss Qin guessed, the power of dreams is extremely incompatible with modern technology, so it cannot affect it. Using other spells as a means of defense or avoidance is the correct response." The Dawn Knight raised his finger and pointed at Gongsun. Ce's prosthetic cannon, "We can see from this simulated battle that power is not a universal solution, and the compatibility between different abilities still plays a considerable role in the battle situation between creations. Even if power has been mastered, You should develop more moves that suit you just in case you need them."
"I understand~" Gongsun Ce said listlessly, "One last question, do I have any hope of gaining power?"
"There are only two seals in total and you still want to develop the power?" Rei Shigure scoffed, "Think more about ways to expand your inventory and then look up, little brother."
Alandia added: "Actually, Miss Shigure herself does not have sufficient reserves. Her success depends largely on the core of the trick: spiritual appearance..."
Gongsun Ce laughed loudly in response, and Shigure Rei grinned: "Dawn Knight, there is no need to explain at this time!"
"Why?" Alandia asked confused.
"No reason!"
Gongsun Ce whistled and walked far away, picked up the white basket and washed the fruits picked by the girls by the stream. Qiluo walked over quietly, squatted beside him, and said curiously: "Gongsun Ce, you seem unhappy."
"Of course I won't be happy to be separated by a huge distance from Zero..."
"The gap between Hengli and Quan Neng isn't that big, right?" Qiluo took a berry.
Gongsun Ce shrugged: "Qiluo, after listening to the class, do you think that as long as you can formulate excellent tactics, take advantage of the characteristics of your own world, and avoid the scope of the enemy's power, Hengli can defeat the power?"
"Yeah, yeah." Qiluo nodded vigorously.
Gongsun Ce sighed: "This is a very reasonable nonsense. It is like saying, 'If you are agile and mentally agile and can take advantage of the enemy's character weaknesses, you can defeat those with the most dangerous abilities.' In fact, we all know the most dangerous abilities." People with abilities are not stupid either. Their control of power is more subtle and often more resourceful. The intelligence level of both sides is at the same level. If the opponent has such a big cheat as power, how do you think the weaker side can win?"
Qiluo thought about it for a long time and said, "Seduction?"
Gongsun Ce almost missed the point and fell into the river: "Master Qi Luo Shen, your thinking is so unique that I deeply admire it."
"If you go and seduce Shigure Rei, you will definitely win!" Kirara encouraged, "This way, you will have a sure-win strategy against a power creation. Isn't it very motivating?"
Gongsun Ce stood up, wiped his hair, and said coolly: "Indeed. Thinking further, if Mr. Gongsun and I become the most beautiful man in the world, seduction tactics can become a comprehensive solution to all creations. That is, Said that the competition of combat power should be transformed into a competition of fashion value!"
Qiluo conjured two colorful balls and cheered like a cheerleader: "This is the momentum, Gongsun Ce!"
"Okay! Let's take becoming the most handsome man in the world as the next stage of training goal!"
The conversation between the two people by the river was full of lofty ideals and grandeur. Qin Qianbai, who was killing fish, glanced at her boyfriend and said sadly: "Ace, you have become a useless person..."
Rei Shigure looked disgusted: "Is this guy okay?"
"Ce is actually very competitive," Alandia said. "I think this emotion will last for a while..."
The girls added the second half of the sentence in their minds at the same time: until he does the next stupid thing.
