When he returned to the cruise ship in the evening, Lin harvested a legendary weapon──Hakiri. Fen didn't have the slightest desire to take it for himself, but instead... had a smirk on his face?
No other name was given to it, because a codename such as a name has no meaning in their culture. Even the word "Shakakiri" was named after the gods and men who fought in the war between gods and demons in the past.
To save trouble, someone adopted the name originally used to refer to the entire ethnic group. Anyway, the chance of encountering other Haggiris is not high. Most of the Haggiri clan were destroyed in the war started by Fen thousands of years ago. In order to take revenge, this demon king did not shy away from the idea of death together.
As for the new shape of the hakakiri, someone used the most common appearance of a standard one-handed sword. The cross guard is straight and slightly long. This is to make up for the fact that the hilt of a one-handed sword is not very suitable for both hands to hold and use force. When necessary, you can hold the cross guard and exert force, such as stabbing or downward stabbing. Downed enemy.
This change of appearance according to the user's intention is a considerable loss of energy accumulation for Hagiri. The energy it can use is not the eight powers of the Lost Land, but the special energy converted from the eight powers. The conversion efficiency is quite low. Therefore, except for the partners it recognizes, generally speaking, Haggiri will not change its appearance easily.
However, the shortcoming that has always troubled someone, that when using the flash technique, will contaminate and corrode one's own items, is not a problem for Hagiri. Even when it flashes, the high-dimensional chaotic energy that is seen as troublesome is the best and most needed nourishment for Shakiri.
It even said boldly to someone: Just give me enough time to absorb energy in this special place. Maybe I can transform into those special 'weapons' you imagine.
"Oh, how long will it take?"
: The smallest Iron Man suit you can imagine is fully functional. It will probably take me two hundred years of continuous absorption to successfully transform it.
……give up.
: Don’t you want to consider taking a look? It’s only been two hundred years.
There really is nothing in common with this kind of non-carbon-based life.
The reason why Haggiri's appearance is so ordinary is of course due to someone's low-key personality. But in fact, the technical connotation of the changed hakiri is not low-key at all. The blade has a dull luster and seems to have irregular patterns. This is because it is covered with tiny magic arrays. If calculated in terms of program code, it would be at least gigabytes.
The reason why it's so troublesome to make up a set of magic patterns to use on Hagiri is because in addition to using it as a weapon, someone also uses Hagiri as a wand. Engraved on it are various matching combat magics, including assist, hindrance, and attack. The energy source is the special energy accumulated by the Hakiri itself.
In the past, the Haggiri clan only used its 'hardness' and self-repairing properties with its holders, which did not involve unnecessary energy consumption. Because when the energy is exhausted, it is equivalent to the 'death' of the Haggiri clan.
But after knowing that someone can use the Flash Technique to quickly replenish energy, in exchange, Haggiri of course also opens up more abilities to meet someone's needs. Of course, it is not possible to change the appearance at will. Changing the shape, changing the volume and density, these actions consume a lot of energy.
As for Hakiri, who can be used as a sword in close combat and as a wand in distanced combat, although someone has spent a lot of thought on how to use Hakiri to use magic, it does not mean that he has given up on strengthening the aspect of close combat.
The 'hardness' and self-healing properties of the box cut itself allow it to remain sharp for a long time as long as it is sharpened enough using a special method. This is the Hakiri that has been used as a weapon, and has been used in Mystery for a long time. And some warriors with magician background will, like someone, add some beneficial magic to them and become magic warriors. Of course, no one who has ever done this can be as exaggerated as this person.
For the 'sword' type of artifact itself, Midi's long-standing practice seems to be quite sufficient, and there is no room for further improvement. But in front of the masters of science, how can we superstitiously believe that the practices of thousands of years ago are better than those of today.
In modern times on earth, the reason why no one has built legendary weapons that surpass the Tangmo sword, Gurkha scimitar, and Damascus sword is because the truly top scientists are studying more powerful bombs, or more accurate weapons. Missiles, no one is thinking about how to build more advanced and powerful knives.
But in reality, no one really thinks about things. That doesn’t mean that people in other fields don’t use their imagination. The so-called scientific progress is not just that, needs, imagination, and realization. The need for scientists to intervene is actually only at the last step.
And what someone is trying to achieve with box cutting is the 'super vibration' tool that they wanted to accomplish before but couldn't figure out, and the 'single molecule' level of sharpness.
The former uses high-frequency vibration to destroy the microstructure of the contact object, thereby achieving the so-called 'cutting'. In fact, this has already been realized on earth. Some industrial or medical ultrasonic knives are a practice of this concept. However, the equipment is quite large and the usable range is quite small. It cannot be 'weaponized' like in the anime.
But science can do it, but magic can’t think of how to do it for the moment. Can Shakiri do it? After discussing with Haggiri, it perfectly realized the weaponization of the super vibrating knife in the anime, which made someone very surprised.
The other is about the concept of 'sharpness'. All substances are composed of molecules, so the smallest theoretical unit is the molecule. As for smaller elements or atoms, they cannot exist alone in the natural environment to form solid substances.
The requirement for a weapon to be sharp is to be as thin and sharp as possible to achieve the purpose of cutting. So the thinnest and sharpest state is the single-molecule structure.
How to do this? In my impression, there was no way to do it on the earth before time travel. That's an imagination that only exists in anime works. The same cannot be done in the Mysterious Land. The shaping technique used to control the shape of magic materials cannot achieve such detailed and microscopic control. But what about the box cut?
Before that, I gave it a molecular physics course. Because Haggiri is a life form from a high-dimensional world, its embodiment in the Mysterious Land is actually a manifestation of dimensionality reduction. In other words, they actually don't quite understand the physical characteristics of the three-dimensional world they are in, even though it has been thousands of years.
To living beings like them, time is meaningless, and so are the lives of their own kind. So in the past, Fen caused internal fighting among the Haggiri clan, resulting in countless Haggiri being damaged and even losing their lives, but they had no resentment. In their words, every time a life passes away, another life will be born, and the living only need blessings.
Haggiri didn't say much about the world they came from. Of course, it would be difficult for someone to imagine how this kind of life view could be considered reasonable. But when it comes to scientific and technological power, we should describe it a little crookedly, or we should say that it is on a different path compared with the earth.
When the knowledge of molecular structure is explained like box cutting, it completes the so-called single-molecule sharpening. Incidentally, his own atomic structure and molecular structure also changed, turning into a metal that had never been seen in the Lost World, or at least a special metal that someone had not seen in the records or personal sightings of the Lost World or Earth.
As a result, the lethality of this box cutter reached an unimaginable level. In order to avoid being accidentally injured, Lin chose very strong magic materials and made a scabbard to store the sword, but then the scabbard broke...
The origin of the name 'Haggiri' seems to be not only that the weapon is so sharp that nothing can be stored; it should be that I am not happy with being locked up (wearing clothes), so any inanimate object that tries to completely cover it will be ruthlessly destroyed .
In the end, someone reached an agreement with Hagakiri, which is not to activate the super vibration mode in normal times, and at the same time, the sharp edge will be blunted. At that time, you can hold the blade in your hand and hit someone with the hilt, or use the Hakiri as an ordinary wand. When you want to fight in close combat, change the mode of the blade. This way, the wayward weapon can be carried using a regular lanyard instead of having to keep it in hand at all times.
Hagiri easily accepted such a request. Because for it, maintaining a super vibrational state will consume a lot of energy.
Single-molecule blades have the same problem. Because the single-molecule structure is easily affected by dust in the air, such as side impact, friction, etc., it is not easy to maintain. Using self-repairing properties to maintain will also consume energy.
Moreover, the cost of maintaining the two for a long time is far greater than the cost of slightly adjusting the form. So it’s not surprising that Hagiri would make such a choice.
At the same time, a brief relationship made someone understand one thing, why the previous holder of Hakikiri committed suicide.
Just imagine when a voice can be conveyed directly into your mind without any obstruction. Then as long as you think together, the other party will detect it, and there will be no room for you to lie or make excuses. Then any bad thoughts or scars from the past will be questioned or warned by a curious being at all times. How can an ordinary person endure such a miserable situation?
The most damning thing is: the other party is a living being that does not need to sleep 24 hours a day. Even if you lock it in a box, it will be useless. It will only destroy the contents of that box.
In this regard, someone who is mentally weak cannot imagine how a hero or brave man who possesses Haggiri can endure all this. But it also reminded him that there was an expert beside him who had had it before. So Lin went to ask Lich how to solve this problem.
"Simple, I give them to my subordinates to use."
"Subordinate? Who?"
"The Stitched Corpse Guards led by Stone."
...What is the natural enemy of chatterbox? There is no doubt that it is a dead person.
In line with the idea that happiness alone is not as good as happiness for everyone, someone told Haggiri about the magic formation pattern that the Lich had studied and used air resonance to produce sound. Then it became a situation where everyone on the boat fell into a state of mental exhaustion...
One day, when Haggiri was talking to the people on the ship about the artistry of cutting, the lich with the same panda eyes found someone and said, "Find a way to solve that problem. Otherwise, I think Haggiri The Dimensional Gap Millennium Travel Plan is a good plan. In order to make it remember to come back, it is a good choice to let it accompany you with your head. There is no need to worry about death if the head is cut off. You can see that Shi Dong only uses one My head is not alive and well."
Finally, someone's dream magic tower has an additional member who can come and go freely. The two incarnations of Fat House and Zhonger have an additional target to quarrel with the Silver-bearded Dwarf Guardian. Then the real world is quiet most of the time, which is gratifying.
