"Well, since we need to fight in the 'dream'."
"Then, the demand for heroes this time is to have the ability to fight in dreams..."
Dragon City, altar area.
Ji Ye and Cobu stood on the altar, looking at the sacrifice that was hit by the golden light spitted out by the Five Clawed Dragon of Luck, the mirror exploded by the female Yaksha King with the inheritance talent.
Compared with the bustle during previous sacrifices, this time there were very few people around the altar, only seven or eight people.
This is because the two of them entered the "dream" space and killed a number of "Mist Tribes".
Originally just "gathering troops", it seemed that the "Mist Army" that was supposed to attack at night could no longer bear it, and began to attack Dragon City's "Feng Shui Formation" from all directions and even from the sky, just in case the rest of the people were attacked. At that time, they had all dispersed to the front line.
However, Dragon City's strategy so far is still focused on defense.
After all, if you can directly kill these "fog" tribe in the dream.
In reality, it is completely possible to "conquer the enemy without fighting."
Therefore, for this sacrifice, Ji Ye set the requirement that heroes need to "have a certain dream fighting ability."
This requirement is actually a bit more relaxed than when Cobb was invited.
Because having the ability to fight in dreams does not necessarily require a very strict study of dreams, the range of heroes that can be attracted is naturally wider.
Ji Ye also had an idea for doing this.
This "Flower in the Mirror, Moon in the Water" sacrifice theoretically has a chance of attracting an outstanding person rated as "Legendary", but it is only a chance, not an absolute possibility. If you add the requirements of "Dream Master", I am afraid it will meet the requirements. There will be very few people.
Because, considering the arrival of Dom Cobb, it is completely an exception.
The heroes that Dragon City attracts should still be mainly from ancient China. In the ancient Dragon Kingdom, the number of heroes who have the ability of "dream" and are qualified to be called legends will definitely not be too many.
"The Duke of Zhou interprets dreams, Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies, and flying bears enter dreams... In the entire history, there are probably only these three people!"
Mr. Zhou's voice sounded in the communication channel.
Duke of Zhou was the younger brother of King Wu Jifa, "Gongdan of Zhou". He assisted King Wu in the eastward expedition against King Zhou, and made ritual music, laying the foundation for Confucianism.
For a long time in ancient times, Duke Zhou had a respected status and was called a "sage". In some dynasties, he was even above Confucius.
As for the book "The Interpretation of Dreams by the Duke of Zhou", although according to research it belongs to later generations who attached its name, because it has been widely circulated, according to the rules of the inheritance place, it is likely to become the ability of the Duke of Zhou.
As for "Zhuang Zhou Mengdie", no more needs to be said.
As the "Nanhua True Man" of the Taoist sect, Zhuangzi's status among Taoists is comparable to that of Mencius in Confucianism, and he belongs to the "lesser sage".
There are countless connections between Taoism and Taoism. If this "Nanhua True Man" can really come, it should be of great help to Longcheng's Taoism!
And the last allusion of "Flying Bear into Dream".
It is said that King Wen of Zhou Dynasty, Jichang, dreamed that a tiger with two wings was rushing toward him from the southeast. Later, he met Jiang Ziya who was fishing on the edge of the Wei River.
The status of these two people in history is even higher than the first two, plus various myths in modern "Feng Shen Yan Yi" and online novels. Ji Ye suspects that they not only have the qualifications of "legends", but may even have "myths" Qualifications!
As for these four people, it should be said that no matter which one comes.
It will be of great use to the Dragon City stronghold.
So Ji Ye's eyes were definitely filled with anticipation when he saw that the altar had been inspired by the golden light of the Five-clawed Dragon of Fortune and began to condense the soul of civilization in human form.
"Buzz!"
It was completely different from the previous sacrifices, at the same time that the soul of civilization began to transform.
The sky above the entire Dragon City suddenly became turbulent, and immediately after, phantoms suddenly appeared, some in the form of living things, and some in the form of objects, all of which were emitting light!
"what's the situation?"
"What is this, the Mist Tribe's attack method!"
On the four defense lines of Dragon City, there were a bunch of newcomers who had arrived in the fourth batch, and their faces suddenly looked a little nervous.
"This scene is..."
A bunch of old players looked a little surprised and a little curious.
Because everyone has seen this scene once.
That was the first stage of the previous Dragon City promotion assessment, when the cores of many competitive strongholds manifested to prevent Dragon City from advancing!
Could it be said that the Mist Clan also has the means to "summon" the core of the stronghold that has been swallowed up by it, and directly attack the core of the opponent's stronghold from the air
"No, this is not the method of the Mist Tribe."
On the altar, Ji Ye directly rejected it.
Because, although the cores of these strongholds appearing in the sky have various shapes, they all symbolize the yellow power of destiny of the human race.
Even the core shapes of most of the strongholds in the middle are familiar to people in the Dragon Kingdom, such as white tigers, phoenixes, fairy swords, bronze tripods, Sanxingdui, and a round, chubby giant panda...
Obviously, the core of these strongholds belong to the human race, and they also belong to the Dragon Kingdom's own strongholds in the inheritance land.
"Legends are extremely outstanding existences in a civilization. Therefore, when heroes at the legendary level gather together, all other related strongholds will contribute a part of their strength!"
This was the information that came to Ji Ye's mind as the master of the stronghold.
Yes, legend!
This time, the person who responded to the Dragon City sacrifice was a "legendary" hero!
This result is not unexpected, it should be considered reasonable. After all, Dragon City is the "first stronghold on earth".
As long as the background matches, even legendary figures will be happy to choose.
"Wow!"
After the luck cores of the remaining strongholds are manifested.
Immediately, various kinds of golden light shot out and hit the extraordinary level of civilization soul exploded by the male Yaksha King.
In the blink of an eye, the color of the flame inside turned into orange, blooming with an intense orange light that was difficult to look directly at, and condensed into a human figure!
["Riding six dragons, riding on the wind. Traveling all over the world, eight countries under the road... Riding on the clouds, immortals and jade girls, come down and travel. Riding six dragons to drink jade syrup... "]
Then, the sound of "poetry horn" recited by an imposing middle-aged man finally appeared.
"Hey, this is it?"
Although, most of the people in Dragon City are now on the edge of the stronghold.
However, the sound of these poems seemed to penetrate the space, ringing in the ears of everyone within the entire Dragon City stronghold.
Even those who are not involved in the battle can also see through the middle barrier and see the blurry figure formed by the orange light above the altar.
"You can't tell your identity from this poetry number."
"But it feels full of immortality. Could it be Zhuangzi?"
After confirming that he was truly a "legendary" hero, Ji Ye tried to analyze the identity of this hero through his "poetry number".
Although he didn't know much about Zhuangzi's articles, one of the must-memorize texts in middle school that gave students a headache was Zhuangzi's "Xiaoyaoyou", which included "If a man takes advantage of the righteousness of heaven and earth, he can control the debate between the six qi." There seems to be a certain similarity between sentences like these and these "poems" just now
However, Ji Ye immediately realized that his guess was wrong!
["Although the divine tortoise has a long life, it still has its time; the soaring snake rides on the mist, but will eventually become ashes. The old man is helpless, but his ambition is thousands of miles; the martyr's old age is full of ambition..."]
["Singing to wine, how much is life! Just like the morning dew, the past days are so bitter..."]
Just like when Li Guang came before, the "poems" related to outstanding people were not just one, but continuous.
And although some are depressed, some are generous, and some are passionate, they are all recited by the same voice, indicating that these poems should be written by the same person.
Among them, some of the poems are probably unforgettable for the people of the Dragon Kingdom, even the "students" with poor memory.
"Wow, it turned out to be..."
"Master Prime Minister!"
"Meng Degong!"
"Fuck, Cao Cao..."
Yes, the legendary figure who responded to the Dragon City sacrifice was not Zhuangzi, nor Zhou Gong and Jiang Ziya, as Ji Ye thought at first.
Astonishingly, it was Cao Cao, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty and the ancestor of the Wei Kingdom among the Three Kingdoms!
"It's actually Cao Cao!"
Faced with this result, not only Ji Ye, but also Guo Wei, Su Nongying and others on the communication channel also made sounds of surprise and surprise.
It's not that Cao Cao is not qualified.
In terms of popularity and historical status throughout the Three Kingdoms era, Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang undoubtedly qualified for "legendary evaluation", but the problem is...
"Didn't the city lord set the requirement of 'having the ability to fight in a dream'? How can Boss Cao meet this requirement?"
In the north of Dragon City, Brother Chong, who was leading a bunch of players from the supernatural camp to set up defenses, scratched his head, his face full of confusion.
"I'm fine, I'll kill someone in my dream!"
Ji Ye had already thought of the reason.
I love killing people in my dreams. This is a well-known allusion about Cao Cao, which is enough to be ranked alongside "Watching the plum blossoms to quench thirst, Huarong Tao, cutting off beard and abandoning robe".
Boss Cao was suspicious by nature and often worried about others secretly harming him while he was sleeping, so he said to the guards, "I like killing people in my dreams. Please don't come near me when I'm asleep."
In order to make others believe this, he once deliberately pushed off his quilt while sleeping, letting himself get cold but still sleeping soundly.
When a guard picked up the quilt and was about to cover him, Cao Cao suddenly jumped up, drew his sword and killed the guard, then lay down and continued to sleep.
When I got up the next morning, I asked with surprise who had killed my close guard. After the other guards told the truth, Cao Cao "cryed bitterly" and had the guard buried richly.
From this, everyone thought that Cao Cao really killed someone in his dream!
However, "killing people in dreams" is actually only seen in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and not in official historical records.
Therefore, Dragon City's management never thought that there would be an "Emperor Wei Wu" who could meet the requirement of "being able to fight in dreams".
