When the system voice in his mind read the words "Dududu! Successfully copied the [Eternal Talent]: 'The Eight Banners of the Immortal'", a flash of surprise filled Qingden's pupils and cheeks.
This type of system sound... was the first time Qingdeng heard it.
Previously, when prompting Qingdeng to copy a new talent, the system sound effect was a crisp "ding".
The sound effect just now was a rather dull "beep beep beep".
In addition, the tone of the system tone has also changed.
Looking at every system sound Qingdeng has heard before, the tone is quite cold, without sadness or joy.
But Qingdeng rarely heard the system use a more passionate tone just now.
Of course - these words and changes in the tone of the system sound were far less shocking than the shock he felt when he heard the extremely unfamiliar word "eternal talent".
——Eternal talent...what is this...?
Being named "Eternal Life"... just by listening to the name, you can feel that this talent is definitely different from every talent Qingden has copied in the past.
At this time, Kinoshita Mai, who was lying next to Aoden, put her hands on the ground and put all her weight on her left leg to prevent her numb right foot from touching the ground, and reluctantly stood up.
The mysterious man had already passed through a street intersection and disappeared from the sight of Qingto and Kinoshita Mai.
Kinoshita Mai gritted her teeth and seemed to want to chase the mysterious person, but Qingto stopped him in time: "Stop chasing."
Qingdeng pressed his right leg, which was still numb, while looking at the direction in which the mysterious man disappeared with complicated eyes.
"Based on our current state...it's impossible to catch up with him again."
The two of them had numbness in their right legs. They had just been hit hard by the mysterious man. Both of their right legs were now in a state of numbness and pain.
No matter him or Kinoshita Mai, it is difficult to even stand firm now... It is undoubtedly impossible to catch up with the mysterious person.
In addition to the fact that their current physical condition is simply not enough to support them in continuing the pursuit, Qingdeng has another reason that he did not mention... that is, it will be useless even if they catch up with the mysterious man again.
There was nothing they could do about the mysterious man...
Qingdeng didn't hold back at all just now. In the state where "Lonely Dan" was triggered, he used all his strength.
Judging from Kinoshita Mai's expression and movements when she was fighting the mysterious man just now, she, like Ayoto, didn't hold anything back.
The two of them joined forces with each other and tried their best, but they couldn't even touch a corner of the mysterious man's clothes... They were suppressed by the mysterious man throughout the whole process.
If what the mysterious man had just used was not a tree branch, but a real sword... then he would probably be able to kill both Ayoto and Kinoshita Mai with just one confrontation.
Who is this guy... Qingdeng stared at the direction where the mysterious figure disappeared, his eyes became a little more complicated.
The only thing Qingto can be sure of now is that this mysterious man does not have too strong hostility towards him and Kinoshita Mai - at least he does not want to kill the two of them, or capture them alive.
The mysterious man had just successfully knocked them both to the ground. If he wanted to... he could kill or capture them both without any effort.
But he didn't do that... he simply threw away the branch in his hand and fled from Qingdeng and the others.
He neither wanted to kill them nor capture them alive... This behavior of the mysterious man made the mysterious aura around him even stronger, making Qingdeng even more confused about this man's identity.
After listening to Qingto's stop, Kinoshita Mai also realized that they really did not have the ability to catch up with the mysterious man now. After a flash of hesitation on his face, he finally slowly retracted his steps and stepped forward. steps out.
At this time, Qingdeng heard louder and louder noises coming from the houses on both sides of the street.
Probably the sound of the two of them fighting with the mysterious man just now disturbed the townspeople on both sides of the street. The townspeople got up from the bed one after another, wanting to see what happened outside.
If the townspeople discovered the two of them, it would cause unnecessary trouble, so Aoto quickly said to Kinoshita Mai in a deep voice: "Let's get out of here quickly."
Kinoshita Mai nodded vigorously, and then dragged her right leg, which had not yet recovered, with Aomori and moved away from the street.
The two of them moved to a dark alley far away from the place where they had just fought with the mysterious man, and then stopped.
Kinoshita Mai looked around the alley, repeatedly confirmed that there were no outsiders around, and breathed out: "Just take a rest here..."
After saying that, Kinoshita Mai took the lead and sat on the floor, raised her hands and gently massaged her right leg, which was still numb.
The numbness in Aoto's right leg had faded a lot. He didn't need to massage his leg like Kinoshita Mai did, and his body wasn't so tired that he urgently needed to sit down and rest. However, he still sat cross-legged and sat across from Kinoshita Mai in an orderly manner.
Because at this moment, it is a good opportunity for Qingdeng.
A good opportunity to take a good look at the strange new talent you just acquired.
So, Qingdeng pretended to be resting while silently summoning the system in his heart.
The system list that had not been checked for some time appeared in front of Qingdeng’s eyes following Qingdeng’s call——
[Name: Tachibana Aoden](?)
[Talents currently possessed:]
[Night Vision, Sword Talent, Sleep God, Lonely, Eagle Eyes, Left-handed, Physical Fitness, Skillful Hands, Strong Tongue, Iron Waist, Steel Bones, Strong Muscles, Cat Turns, Photographic Memory, Ghost Heart, Milk, Leading the Way, Seeing Through, Beautiful Hair, The Trickster, The Perceiver of the Wind, The Eight Banners of the Immortal]
The Immortal Hachiman... This entry, whose name alone is much more majestic than other talents, lies quietly at the bottom of the talent list.
Hachiman is a famous god in Japanese Shintoism. His full name is "Hachiman Daimyojin". He was originally the "God of Bows and Arrows". He established Japan's first shogunate 700 years ago: Minamoto Yoritomo of the Kamakura shogunate was established in Kamakura. After entering Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine, Hachiman Daimyojin was gradually revered as the "god of war" and became a national belief. Shrines dedicated to Hachiman Daimyojin were built across the country.
As soon as he opened the system list, Qingdeng immediately discovered the extraordinary nature of his new talent.
Every talent that has been copied before has an ordinary entry in the talent list.
Only the entry for "Wuwang Hachiman" actually has a special effect - it is surrounded by a purple square that glows slightly!
When Qingdeng was looking at this talent entry with its own special effects in astonishment, he suddenly discovered: focusing on this purple box, this purple box can be expanded into a new virtual screen.
And on this virtual screen, there is an introduction to "Eternal Talent" written clearly!
[Eternal Talent:
Excluding the host, this is a talent that only one person can possess in this world.
A unique talent! Unparalleled talent in the world! 】
The introduction is short.
But this extremely short introduction made Qingdeng feel shocked and hard to dissipate for a long time...
The world is so vast and the population is so huge. With such a population base, there is naturally no shortage of people with that kind of talent.
So, as it should be - "talent crashing" is a very normal thing.
Take the "Easy Talent of the Sword" as an example: Swordsmanship geniuses like Okita who possess the "Easy Talent of the Sword" are numerous, if not countless, at least.
However...only the "eternal talent" is different.
According to the introduction of "Eternal Talents" currently displayed by the system, excluding Qingdeng who can copy other people's talents, all talents named "Eternal Talents" are unique! A talent that only one person in this world can possess!
The more Qingdeng thought about it, the more shocked he felt in his heart.
The huge harvest tonight made Qingdeng feel dumbfounded.
He was just accompanying Mai Kinoshita to investigate the suspicious tea house tonight, but by chance, he was able to copy this talent that only one among a billion people can have...
This kind of experience and this kind of luck make Qingdeng not know how to use specific words to describe it.
After taking several deep breaths, Qingdeng gradually recovered from his shock and stabilized his mood. He slowly raised his gaze and stared in the direction where the mysterious man left just now.
——Who is that guy in the brown robe...Why is such a person hiding near us when Miss Kinoshita and I are enjoying the night cherry blossoms?
Qingden is not sure how much the current world population is, but he estimates that there should still be more than a billion people.
Among billions of people, only one person possesses this kind of talent... What a powerful talent is this?
And how powerful a person with such a talent must be...?
Qing Deng met such a person just now and briefly fought against him.
As for the identity of the mysterious man... Qingdeng couldn't help but become more confused.
But it was useless no matter how doubtful Qingden was.
There was so little information, and he couldn't figure out the identity of the mysterious man even as he was thinking about it.
Therefore, Qingden could only smile bitterly and shake his head slightly, then retracted his gaze, and instead focused on the talent content of "Wang Wu Hachiman".
As early as when he had successfully copied the talent from the mysterious man and the system prompts popped up in his mind, Qingto had already noticed that the conditions for violating the "Wuxian Hachiman" were... somewhat difficult to understand.
With the mentality of "I want to study it carefully", Qingto focused his attention on the entry of "Wuwang Hachiman", and grasped the virtual screen with the introduction of the talent and immediately popped up in front of his eyes——
[When the mind and spirit are united and there is no confusion in the mind, you will be able to use a powerful attack as if Hachiman Daimyojin is possessed!
If your heart is not at a loss, neither will your sword! 】
Looking at the series of introductions on the virtual screen, Qingdeng frowned slightly - if it can become an "eternal talent", then this talent must have something extraordinary. In fact, according to the system's introduction to this talent, we can vaguely feel that this talent seems to be very strong, but the introduction to this talent is too general!
What does it mean to be "unity of mind and heart, without confusion"?
I am fully determined to win and have no distracting thoughts in my mind. Does this mean that I am clear of confusion?
What does it mean to be able to use a powerful blow that is like possessing Hachiman Daimyojin? Suddenly burst out all the potential of the body, and the strength increases dramatically?
The introduction of the talent content was too vague... Qingdeng really couldn't figure out the triggering conditions of the talent.
Qingden's intuition told it: This "Wuwang Hachiman" is definitely not that easy to trigger. The so-called "mind without confusion" is definitely not just as simple as a mind without distracting thoughts...
While Qingto was still concentrating on studying his new talent, suddenly - Mai Kinoshita, who was sitting opposite him and had been massaging her right leg just now, suddenly stood up holding on to the wall of the alley, and then weighed her feet vigorously.
"Well... I finally recovered." Kinoshita Mai glanced at her right leg, which was no longer sore and numb no matter how much she tiptoed, and said with a wry smile in a soliloquy tone, "There are so many accidents tonight... ...Who is that guy in the brown robe...?"
Qingto, whose mind was brought back to the present world by Kinoshita Mai's low sigh, smiled helplessly and echoed: "Who knows... Is your leg okay? Are there any other injuries?"
"I'm fine." Kinoshita Mai raised her arms to the left and right sides of her body, stepped on her toes a few times, and used her movements to indicate to Qingden that her body was intact, "What about you? You were hit by that guy's branch. How's the part doing?"
Having said this, Kinoshita Mai changed into a worried tone.
"Is there any bleeding? Is the injury serious?"
"There's no bleeding, it's just a minor injury." Qingden raised his hand and touched the parts that had just been hit by the mysterious man's branch.
"...Let me see your wound." Kinoshita Mai said.
"Huh?" Qingdeng was stunned.
"Let me see your wound." Mai Kinoshita, who looked at Ayoto with firm eyes, repeated what she had just said word for word.
"That's unnecessary." Qingdeng waved his hand quickly, "It's just a minor injury that didn't even bleed."
"No." Kinoshita Mai shook her head resolutely, "That guy's branch hit you so hard, it crackled when it hit you. I don't believe it was just a minor injury. Come on, let me see Look at your wounds."
This was the first time Qingteng saw such a strong side of Kinoshita Mai... No matter what he said or explained, Kinoshita Mai would not give in.
Unable to resist Kinoshita Mai, Qingto could only sigh softly and slowly take off his upper body clothes.
Until the end of the battle, the mysterious man, who only held the branch to Qingdeng, slapped Qingdeng 7 times with the branch in total. These 7 blows were all concentrated on Qingdeng's upper body.
Qingdeng didn't lie. The crisscross wounds on his body did not bleed, but the appearance of the wounds was quite scary.
The longest wound was 4 inches long, and the shortest wound was 2 inches long.
Every wound was undoubtedly a bloodstain, and the skin was split open and frighteningly red. Some of the wounds even had tiny drops of blood oozing out.
The alley where Qingto and Kinoshita Mai are hiding now has quite tall houses on both sides of the alley. Under the cover of the wide eaves of the houses on both sides, the light in the alley is extremely dim, and you can't see your fingers.
Therefore, in order to see the injuries on Qingteng's body more clearly, Kinoshita Mai unconsciously stretched her feet half a step forward, stood in front of Qingteng, and put her face close to Qingteng's naked upper body.
Seeing Kinoshita Mai whose nose almost hit him, Qingto couldn't help but be stunned.
Being naked in front of a young woman who is not a relative or a medical worker, allowing her to see the wounds on her body at close range... This is the first such experience.
For some reason, Qingdeng felt an itching feeling in his heart.
He looked away from Kinoshita Mai unconsciously. The muscles on his face seemed to be out of control, and his expression became weird.
Kinoshita Mai didn't seem to realize that she and Qingto were currently in a rather ambiguous state.
After she carefully looked at every wound on Qingden's body, she finally showed a "relieved" look.
"Fortunately, the wound is really not serious."
Kinoshita Mai straightened up, put her hands on her hips, and continued solemnly:
"After you go back, you must take medicine in time."
"Otherwise, your injuries are likely to leave scars... huh? Tachibana-kun, what's wrong? Why do you look so weird?"
Only then did Kinoshita realize that Qingto's expression was a bit strange.
"Ah...it's nothing..." Qingto laughed awkwardly and raised his hand to scratch his nose, "I just think...Miss Kinoshita, you are quite bold sometimes."
Kinoshita Mai, who still kept her hands on her hips, was slightly startled after hearing Qingto's words, and then her expression changed as if she realized something.
"No, I'm sorry..." Kinoshita Wu lowered her head in panic, and while pointing the hairpin at Qingden, she stretched out her hands to pull up and tighten the scarf on her face, tightly covering her face. "I just... want to make sure your injuries are not serious..."
The girl in front of her turned back into the Kinoshita Mai she was familiar with.
An awkward atmosphere floated between the two people who both fell silent...
