Pulling an ordinary rope, Shangluo, wearing golden armor, climbed up from the pit.
Qi Liu subconsciously took a few steps back. In his impression, this set of armor could not be activated at all even if it was extremely powerful. But now it can indeed be pulled up with a rope, and it doesn't seem to weigh much.
It wasn't until Shangluo stood firm on the ground and the floor tiles didn't crack that he tentatively stretched out his hand:
"Shangluo, let's shake it."
"Is this so?" Shangluo inside the armor reached out his right hand and held it with Qi Liu.
"Then you release your strength and see if I can lift your hand, okay? Have you released your strength?"
"Yeah, I'm relieved."
"Have you really become lighter? Wait, don't move. I'll give you a hug. Turn around."
Shangluo opened his left and right hands outward, allowing Qi Liu to hug him like he was pulling out a carrot. He used his hands hard and actually hugged her.
"Um???"
After putting it down, Qi Liu circled around him several times.
"Shangluo, do you know what I am thinking? I think this may reveal some characteristics of Shen Chromium. It is not heavy, but it is pulled by some force deep in the earth, so it behaves as 'weight'. And After you drive it, that traction disappears, so it returns to the weight of normal metal. Do you feel anything when you're wearing the armor?"
"I don't even feel like I'm wearing armor? It even feels lighter."
He asked Apollonia in passing.
[Hmm] Apollonia fell into thinking, [I really don’t know why the chromium is so heavy. 】
"You don't know? Isn't your shell made of divine chromium?"
[Your brain is still full of neurons, but do you know how neurons work? So I may not know unless I ask the Akashic Records. But the name Shenchromium seems to have come from you. If you want to ask about the specific nature of it, but it may take a long time to iterate, or a long time to retrieve - the iteration is tormenting me, and the retrieval will take up the process of the Akashic Records. 】
"Let's forget it for now. Anyway, I don't have to dig deeper to use it. If I get more information, can I increase the speed of retrieval?"
【Of course. If you can experiment with the many properties of chromium, the search speed will be much faster. For example, if you can get 70% of the information, you can probably ask about the remaining 30% quickly. After all, two points define a line, and three points define a surface. You are required to provide information to narrow the scope of the search. 】
"Well," he suggested to Qi Liu: "Do we need force analysis to determine the direction of the traction force? Maybe the force is not vertically downward, and a triangular positioning should be enough."
"Let's talk about it later, after you recover. I'm afraid you'll fall down again and make another hole. And this kind of dangerous experiment needs to be reported."
That's true. Anyway, Shangluo himself was not in a hurry to ask, it was the court that was waiting to build the big ship. As for whether to use this armor or not, that is Apollonia's business. Obviously Apollonia does not need to understand the nature of the god chromium to mobilize him.
So we might as well go to the meeting first and talk about it later. If there are any problems later, we will solve them later.
Qi Liu watched Shangluo drive Jin Jia back to its original position, and he finally felt relieved after having been hanging on for so many days.
"Okay, I'll handle this trap."
"Then I'm going to school." He put on his school uniform and was about to walk out with his schoolbag in hand.
"Huh???" Behind him, Qi Liu suddenly exclaimed. Shangluo was startled. He thought something had happened to the golden armor.
"Shangluo, are you the head of the sword now?"
"Really? So fast? How did you know?"
"I was about to send a flying message to His Majesty the Emperor just now, saying that the matter here has been dealt with. But when I opened it, I found that he had dragged you into the discussion group of the Thirteen Taibao of Ouchi. Good guy! When did you practice the sword? Last time I Why didn’t I see you coming with your sword ready?”
"Ah this"
"Secret? Tsk, that's not interesting. But be careful. Although I don't care much, other people might care about you. The seat of the sword head has been vacant for several years, because no one has ever taken it. There has been no way to adjust the ranking. If you go up there, someone will probably want to challenge you."
"Ah, can I refuse?"
"If you refuse, you won't be able to keep your position as the number one swordsman. But if you can be certified by His Majesty the Emperor, you must have two skills. I won't ask for trouble."
"Hehe." Shangluo smiled mysteriously at him, smiling confidently. Now that he has this "flashlight" in his hand, he is confident that no one dares to challenge him.
After all, swords kill people. If other methods have their own purposes, for example, Lei Xiu is to get closer to the way of heaven, Xuan Xiu is to get closer to knowledge or something. The sword of that swordsman was born to be a weapon for killing people. Kill one person in ten steps and leave no trace in a thousand miles.
The Thirteen Ouchi Taibao just "sorted" the Ouchi Qi Practitioners and could not decide anything. The imperial court's resources are generally in excess, and each Qi practitioner can obtain sufficient resources. So there is no need to compete to the death for a ranking, it is more of a reputation.
Since it's just reputation, then as Zhu Xianfen said, who would risk their lives? Although that "flashlight" is troublesome to use and consumes a lot of electricity, it is as easy to use to kill people as it is to chop melons and vegetables. If Shangluo really swung around with his eyes closed, others would be unlikely to come up and risk their lives.
After all, it is unfair to rely on martial arts competition to determine the ranking of the Thirteen Taibo. Each school is delving into its own field, and the professional field of sword cultivators is killing. After such a comparison, it is certainly easier for sword cultivators to come out on top.
Next is Lei Xiu. Lei Xiu is great because Lei Xiu was screened when he started. If the purpose of sword cultivation is to kill people, then Lei Xiu is for "cultivation", to put it bluntly, "cultivation". Thunder and lightning itself are signs of the power of creation, and Taozu himself is the Great Master of Five Thunders. Lei Xiu is also the method closest to Tao Ancestor.
Shangluo didn't ask Qi Liu what he was cultivating. I always felt that he looked ordinary and showed nothing. Downstairs in Yuxi Palace, Han Wu, who was looking at the back door, was sleeping there with his head raised, which was really confusing. They all seem to be indifferent to the world. They just get a salary from the court and there is no need to risk their lives for the sake of martial arts competition.
When lunch time came, Shangluo would occasionally think about this issue.
"What are you thinking about?" Qi Yuan asked from the opposite side.
"Hey, monitor, let me ask you. What does your father do?"
"My father is practicing alchemy and refining alchemy."
"Who is Danshou?"
"Well, I remember it seems to be Zhu Qi. His surname is Zhu, and his alchemy rank is seventh among the Thirteen Taibao, so his code name is Zhu Qi, but I have never seen him. Why do you suddenly ask this?"
There’s one more chapter, wait a minute, it’ll be ready soon. In addition, tomorrow will be the fifth update, so there will still be an update at 12 o'clock tonight.
