King of Assassins

Chapter 45: Nine deaths without regret

Views:

The Mo Men Temple, the core of the dark web, is in charge of all dark web data and is one of the highest achievements of human technology.

The reason why it is presented as a traditional Chinese fairy palace model is that the three designers are all Chinese.

The Momen Temple initially established twelve supreme administrators, known as the Twelve Sages.

However, the real core of the Momen Temple is the rare object, the Heart of Numbers.

The Digital Heart is absolutely rational. It has super high intelligence but no emotions. The Digital Heart can only use digital logic to analyze everything.

The Digital Heart has only two core logics: protecting humanity and protecting itself.

The operation of the Mo Men Temple revolves around these two supreme laws.

Of the twelve administrators, the combined authority of seven administrators is higher than that of the Digital Heart, and they can issue orders to the Digital Heart. However, the orders issued cannot violate the core rules of the Digital Heart.

In the previous life, mankind was on the verge of destruction. Gao Xuan, as one of the only remaining gold-level powerhouses, was exceptionally promoted from the thirty-six disciples to the seventh sage.

There are only two ways to become a sage of the Momen Holy Temple. The first is to be nominated by more than half of the sages to become a sage.

Second, one must pass the Heart of Numbers test to become a sage.

Sages hold enormous authority and represent huge interests. One more sage means one more person to share power.

The Twelve Sages have never been full. Usually, there are only seven to nine sages.

If humanity had not been about to be destroyed, Gao Xuan would never have been promoted to the Seventh Sage.

As for the assessment of the Digital Heart, it tests personal wisdom and ability.

When Gao Xuan joined the Momen Holy Temple, there were only six sages. Their nominations did not exceed half, so he could not directly become a sage. He had to pass the assessment of the Heart of Numbers.

Because it was related to his own survival, the Heart of Numbers gave Gao Xuan the answer, and Gao Xuan passed the test and became the seventh sage.

The Digital Heart's assessment never said that no answers could be given. For the Digital Heart, this did not violate its logic.

Because Gao Xuan joined not only to protect humanity, but also to protect its existence.

Gao Xuan dared to run to the Momen Temple because he knew this back door.

Skynet is the information center of mankind. As long as he is active in human society, it is difficult to avoid Skynet's surveillance.

With the protection of the Digital Heart, you can block Skynet surveillance.

Most importantly, if you want to steal the virtual godhood from Battle.net, you need the help of the Digital Heart.

No matter what, he was determined to obtain the position of the Seventh Sage.

Gao Xuan didn't have a high-level ID before, so he couldn't buy a starship. Even if he knew the connection to the Momen Temple, he couldn't pass through the outermost data abyss.

After getting the Ghost Gun's ID, he immediately rushed to the Momen Temple.

The Digital Heart that controls the Momen Temple was alarmed by Gao Xuan's self-proclaimed identity.

The Heart of Numbers compared Gao Xuan's data information and could not match it with the Seventh Sage.

The position of the Seventh Sage has been vacant for two hundred years, with no one taking over.

The location of the Momen Temple is extremely secretive, and only sages know it. Even if others know the existence of the Momen Temple, it is impossible to find the location of the Momen Temple in the endless ocean of data.

Gao Xuan's special situation triggered a special mechanism inside the Digital Heart.

A stream of data gathered and shone in front of the temple gate, and soon turned into a beautiful woman with a bun.

She has long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, which are full of five colors and seem like a dream. Her face is a little narrow and long, and she is beautiful but also a little cold. The sandy yellow skirt is simple in style, and the long skirt that drags on the ground adds a bit of elegance.

Gao Xuan knew this woman. She was one of the fixed characters represented by the Digital Heart: Nuwa.

The ancient mythological image of Nuwa was chosen to express the highest purpose of protecting mankind.

In the previous life, Gao Xuan and Nuwa had a very good relationship. They were both trying their best to save the human race.

At the last moment, Gao Xuan and Nuwa witnessed the destruction of mankind together.

Warriors who fought to the death, dignitaries who were greedy to escape, helpless women, children and the elderly...

The scenes of the end of the world gathered in the Momen Temple. Gao Xuan and Nuwa witnessed all of this, but they were powerless to save the situation. At that time, Nuwa's colorful eyes were full of confusion and sadness.

As a solidified character of the Data Heart, Nuwa represents the most human side of the Data Heart.

Gao Xuan will never forget that scene, nor the despair and pain of being trampled into mud by the powerful aliens.

To be honest, Gao Xuan is not the kind of great hero who is committed to saving the world.

He was reborn and tried his best to change his fate because he never wanted to experience that kind of despair and pain again.

He would not allow anyone or any life to control his destiny, never.

After being reborn and seeing Nuwa again, Gao Xuan really had countless emotions.

Unfortunately, Nuwa doesn’t recognize him now, and the former close comrades have become strangers.

Gao Xuan was silent for a while before he bowed and said, "The Seventh Sage greets Her Excellency Nuwa."

Nuwa nodded indifferently, and said calmly, "The target's information does not match that of the Seventh Sage. The Sage Assessment is initiated. Does the target accept the Sage Assessment?"

"Accept the test." Gao Xuan said without hesitation. He came here for this.

Nuwa stretched out her slender fingers and lightly tapped, and a huge light screen appeared in front of Gao Xuan, with various test items densely listed on it.

Gao Xuan didn't even look at it, he just said: "I choose the sword that breaks the sky."

There are tens of thousands of types of sage tests, and Gao Xuan only knows the answer to the sword breaking the sky test. He will definitely fail if he chooses other types of tests. He doesn't need to choose this one at all.

Nuwa looked at Gao Xuan deeply, with countless data glimmering in the depths of her eyes, and she made calculations of trillions of orders of magnitude in an instant.

But she didn't say anything, she just stretched out her hand and a bronze door slowly opened in front of Gao Xuan.

Gao Xuan smiled confidently at Nuwa: "Your Excellency, see you in the palace."

He stepped into the bronze gate, and a space quickly unfolded in front of him. Data light flowed, and the whole world was quickly taking shape.

This was inside a huge enclosed building, with many ancient Chinese tables and chairs in the room. A group of guys with swords and sabers were eating meat and drinking wine around the table.

These guys all have ferocious faces and are tall and strong.

Just looking at this scene, it looks very much like a gathering hall in ancient times, where a group of robbers gathered together to drink big bowls of wine and eat big chunks of meat.

Gao Xuan was also relieved. The scene before him was exactly the Sword Breaking Heaven Pass that he had cleared in his previous life. If the mode changed, he would be in trouble.

The sword breaks through the gates one by one, there are 36 levels in total. The difficulty doubles with each level.

The sword breaks the sky and tests not only the swordsmanship, but also the wisdom of the people.

For example, the group of robbers in the first level, a total of 108 people, are equipped with spears, short swords, sledgehammers, shields, bows and arrows, and darts.

In this level, there is actually an internal logic for who should be killed first, who should be killed later, and how to kill.

This will be the case for all levels to come. Swordsmanship is important, but more importantly, it tests one's wisdom and determination.

Moreover, Nuwa will continue to improve the strength and speed of the challengers. When reaching the 32nd level, the character's destructive power has reached the gold level.

Those who challenged the level must have strong spiritual power to control this power. Strong people below the gold level have no chance of passing.

The last two levels were extremely complex, and if one step was wrong, it would be impossible to pass. Without the answers given in advance by the Heart of Numbers, Gao Xuan would not have been able to pass them even in his prime.

Gao Xuan is now very confident that he has the answer. This is an open-book test.

He has a six-winged cicada, strong spiritual power, and superb swordsmanship. The assessment of swordsmanship is not a problem at all.

Gao Xuan drew the long sword from his waist and pointed it at the bandits, "You thieves, prepare to die!"

The group of robbers then discovered Gao Xuan. They shouted and rushed towards Gao Xuan with weapons in hand.

Gao Xuan flew straight into the crowd with his sword, and the long sword in his hand split and stabbed continuously, causing blood flowers to bloom wherever he passed.

All the robbers stabbed by Gao Xuan were killed instantly.

The leading robber found Gao Xuan very powerful, so he hurriedly raised his axe, but the snow-white sword blade had already pierced his heart.

As the sword moved, blood spurted out of the bandit leader's chest again.

When the surrounding bandits saw that their boss was dead, no one retreated. Instead, they surrounded and killed him frantically.

Gao Xuan flicked his sword with his fingers, and charged into the crowd again with the sound of sword chanting. Blood flowers appeared where the sword light flashed.

He sang loudly: "Singing and dancing wildly, the sword shines white, and the dots of red are like blooming flowers. The test of heaven is long and hard, and I will never regret it even if I die nine times."
