"What is power?"
Su, who was lying on the ground, suddenly heard Zero say this, so he sat up and looked at Zero.
Zero also looked at her, repeating: "For Su, what do you think power is?"
Su showed a thoughtful expression, and then began to speak. At first, he spoke very slowly, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, but later he spoke faster and faster. She said: "For ordinary people, strength is strength. Being able to lift hundreds of catties is already a great strength. But it is not the same for us. Strength includes many things, from the mind to the body, from energy to Combat skills are all manifestations of strength. For me, strength is this sword."
She caressed the epee gently. After going through so many battles, the epee was actually damaged. There are gaps in the blade part, and there are even some cracks. With Ling's strength today, it's not impossible for Su to change to a more convenient weapon, but Su doesn't seem to have any plans to change weapons. The movement of her stroking the epee was as gentle as if it was an extension of her own body.
"It doesn't matter whether it's the mountains, the sea, the sky, or the land. As long as I slash with my sword, everything within the reach of the sword will be turned into ashes!" Su's eyes shone brightly: "This is my power, and it is what it has been telling me all along. thing."
"it?"
"That's right, that's it. This sword!" Su held the sword high, and the sword body reflected a burst of amber light in the dusk of the spiritual kingdom.
Zero was moved by it, and said: "So the power of Su is the way of swordsmanship, and all things become, the sword of the arrogant overlord."
"Boss, don't make me look like a female tyrannosaurus." Su unhappy said.
Zero shrugged, and said: "Anyway, your perception of power is very suitable for the Destroyer. And your Thunder Slash is just like what you said. When the sword strikes, everything turns to ashes. But , the current Thunder Slash is already the limit of what you can do, right?"
Su nodded and said, "There is no other way. I haven't been able to break through to the tenth level. Due to the upper limit of energy, what I can do so far is the limit of the power of Thunder Slash."
"That's right, but I have a way to increase its power." Zero said.
Su's eyes lit up: "Boss, are you serious?"
"real!"
Zero jumped up and said: "Look carefully, if your Thunder Slash can do what I do. I believe the power can be further improved."
While speaking, Zero threw a punch. But it looks like a punch, but there are afterimages shaking constantly at the edge of the punch. Today's Zero has been able to use superimposed attacks, and the afterimage is near the front of the fist, instead of pulling out a large area and overlapping them into one, which means that his control power has once again improved.
Seeing Zero's simple punch, but when the fist stopped, the afterimages on the left and right sides of the fist gathered together, but an invisible shock wave was generated, causing a shock to resound in the air. Su's pupils narrowed, and he said with emotion: "Boss, what's going on. The punch just now had at most an eighth-level power, but when it was punched out, it was already close to the tenth level?"
"This is a skill that I was inspired to understand when I was fighting Yeliu. Its principle is to make multiple attacks in a very short time. This should not be difficult for you. The difficulty lies in you It is necessary to let these attacks fall on the same point at the same time as possible to achieve the effect of attack superposition. I borrowed one of the abilities in the Eye of God to greatly improve my self-control. The limit that can be achieved so far It is to swing hundreds of punches in an instant, and at the same time let all the attacks be contained in a space of 5 cm. If the range of constriction is further reduced, the power will increase exponentially. However, this is a heavy burden on the body. Both the body and the mind will reach the critical point of the limit. So usually, I stack up attacks less than ten times, which not only guarantees the power, but also greatly improves the battery life."
"There is such a fighting skill?" Su opened her mouth, and her fighting talent is also very strong, otherwise she would not be able to become a destroyer with terrifying melee capabilities. Although Zero is a few simple words, but he is not prepared at all to achieve his skill. The skill of attack superposition requires the comprehensive development of speed, strength, and micro-control ability. Despite the difficulty, its power is obvious. When multiple attacks are concentrated on one point, the energy released by the attacks will be sputtered and superimposed in this limited space, thereby enhancing the power.
It's like throwing a few bombs into an open place. People in the explosion area will not be killed if they are lucky. But if it fell into a room of ten square meters, that person would definitely not be able to survive. Because of the limited space, the destructive power of the hair will be greatly increased.
"I've calculated, you don't need to stack so many attacks in one go like I did. As long as it reaches more than three times, the destructive power of the superimposed Thunder Slash will be very impressive." Zero said.
Su Xin said happily: "I will go to practice immediately."
As he spoke, he ran to the other side of the open space, without any momentum, not even a little energy. Su just swung the epee rigidly like a beginner. Seeing it in his eyes, Zero nodded secretly. He knew that by doing this, Su was looking for a balance between strength, speed and control. Once she finds that balance point, it's not difficult for a high-level player like her to stack three attacks.
Su's way of strength is also the way of swordsmanship. What about your own
The zero figure flickered, and when it reappeared, it came to the dilapidated hotel across the street.
"My strength is speed." Zero is very clear about his own advantages, and it is the instinct of the strong to maximize his own advantages.
Speed is power.
In theory, the fastest speed is the speed of light. Objects of the same mass, when propelled at different speeds, have completely different destructive forces. For example, when a shot put is thrown by an ordinary person with all its strength, at most it will only leave a shallow mark on the ground, because its speed cannot even reach the speed of sound. But if it propels at the speed of sound, it may smash a building. If it is the speed of light, it is completely capable of destroying an entire block, or even a city.
At Zero's current speed, he has reached the point where he has broken through the sound barrier. In the case of exceeding the speed of sound and being physically tyrannical, his punches and kicks already carry enormous power. So he is not a power specialist, but he can use speed to exert the destructive power of high-level power. In fact, at his current level, both speed and physical strength have reached a perfect balance.
If the speed is to go further, it is the sub-light speed or the light beam. But no matter which one, it is not easy to achieve that speed. And even if it could be achieved, Zero's body couldn't afford it.
The reason is simple, even if he can reach the beam, the strength of his body cannot keep up. If a punch is swung at the speed of light, his body may be torn apart by the speed of light at the moment of the swing.
No matter what type of ability user they are, the more they develop to a higher level, they will always evolve their bodies intentionally or unintentionally. A stronger body represents a higher carrying capacity for strength. If strength is like a tall building, then the body is the foundation. Only when the foundation is deep and solid can the building be built higher.
"So, it's better to start with improving your physical strength."
Su, who was practicing the basic movements, suddenly felt an awe-inspiring power rising from the hotel. She looked in surprise, but Zero released energy of the ninth level, and it was the limit energy. Visible energy flames erupted from his feet, and the extreme release of the ninth level of energy made the power astonishing. Even a strong man like Su, who is also at the ninth level, also felt a pinprick-like sense of oppression. If ordinary people were exposed to this power, they would probably have been stunned on the spot.
So next, Zero did nothing. It's just a continuous release of extreme energy, which puts a lot of load on the body. After less than two hours of persistence, Ling was too tired to move.
Since that day, Zero and Prime have trained separately.
Su Shi kept repeating the tedious sword swinging movements. Every day, he swung his sword no less than ten thousand times, just like a serious kendo beginner.
As for Zero, he released his limit energy every day. At the beginning, he could only last for about two hours. After a month in the spiritual realm, it can last up to three hours. Three months later, the time was extended to seven clocks. After half a year, basically except sleeping, the rest of the time can maintain the state of energy release.
There are no problems in the spiritual kingdom, but there are many problems in the real world.
In the state where the energy limit is released, Zero's power increases correspondingly, which is not a problem in battle. But in life and work, it caused considerable trouble. As long as Zero is not paying attention, he will turn pushing the door into breaking the door. If you want to stand up with the help of the table, you directly crush a desk. And in this state, he naturally felt a huge sense of oppression. Even Rulia, the person closest to him, would feel uncomfortable when approaching him, let alone other people.
One month after the time in the real world passed, the exaggerated eruption of flames when the energy limit was released no longer appeared on Zero. The taste of power has become more condensed, but the huge sense of oppression is still there. Even if you just pass by the city hall, you will feel an inexplicable sense of oppression inside, as if hiding an ancient beast. There is nothing he can do about this point, being able to restrain the energy flame is already a very big improvement, which shows that he has further improved his own control.
At the same time, the long-term release of energy also shows that his body's carrying capacity is constantly improving. The body and even the memory group are adapting to this extreme state and making silent evolutions. If one day when Zero Even's power can be restrained, he will become even stronger, but it is not known how long it will be.
Time passed day by day, except for Ling Hesu, other people were also training in their spare time, everyone could see signs of growth no matter in terms of strength or skills. Of course, the biggest change among them is zero and prime.
Needless to say, Zero, with his beast-like power every day, is short of having the words "Do not enter" on his face. The change of element is introverted, no change can be seen on the surface, but the movements become concise and refined, the whole person is like a sword drawn out of its sheath, so sharp that it is frightening.
During this time, Zero took Su's epee away. After fiddling in the office for a long time, he took it out again, and then Su found that the volume of his epee had decreased by one-third, but its weight had suddenly doubled, and the gaps and cracks had been repaired. This made Su very happy, the epee seemed to have been reborn, but the feeling of holding it in the hand remained unchanged.
At the same time, Su found an extra line of small characters on the sword's jaw: Destruction!
That was the name Zero gave to this newborn sword.
Since reshaping the epee for Su on this day, Zero's power has completely disappeared. It's not that he has mastered the method of restraining power, but that he no longer maintains the state of energy release and returns to the previous natural state. In this state, Zero feels different again. It seems that after the mountain-like pressure faded away, he became lighter and more agile, and his movements were almost irregular. It was the performance that the perception of others could no longer keep up with the zero speed.
On this day, it was still in the ruined city of the spiritual kingdom. Holding her breath, Su slowly raised the epee, and the battle flames and destructive gestures were activated one by one, immediately bursting with power. Su took a deep breath, swung down the epee of destruction suddenly, and pulled out two afterimages in the air. When the blade was flattened and the afterimage merged with the real sword, a sharp scream sounded in the air. Uncountable bleak red rays of light were released from the tip of the sword, and they interweaved complicated tracks in the air.
The hundred meters of life passed by in an instant, before converging into a beam of light as thick as an oil barrel. The beam of light blasted straight out and landed on the ground one kilometer away. After three consecutive impacts on the ground, it turned into an expanding light cluster. The edge of the light cluster is a mass of crimson color, and the core is weaving white that cannot be seen directly. When the entire light cluster expanded to the limit, it exploded with a bang. As a result, the world lost its color, and after a few seconds, the various colors gradually returned.
Then, a continuous cloud of fire appeared on the horizon!
Seeing this fire cloud, even Su herself was stunned. She finally succeeded, doing what Zero said, superimposed three attacks of Thunder Slash, the power displayed can be called terrifying. After being surprised, with ecstasy welling up in her heart, she couldn't help but turned around and said to the nearby figure that had been standing still for more than six hours: "Boss, I succeeded..."
At the end of the sentence, Zero disappeared in her eyes. When it reappeared, it was already on the street five hundred meters away. At first glance, it seems to be moving at full speed like usual. But in fact, there is a clear difference. The biggest difference is that when Zero disappeared just now, even the energy breath also disappeared in Su's perception. You must know that no matter how fast Zero is, the breath cannot disappear. But now, he seemed to have escaped into the space just now, and then appeared from the other side of the space.
"Shadow jump?" Su wondered, Zero does have the ability to travel through space. That is to use the shadow area as the jumping point of space, and perform a space jump similar to a wormhole. But Zero and the street where she is now, do not have a large shadow to provide the conditions for this ability to be realized.
Zero seemed to hear her words, and said from a distance: "It's not the shadow jumping..."
While talking, the other person disappeared over there, and suddenly appeared in front of Su, startling Su. Zero smiled and said: "To be precise, it is a space jump."
Space jump is Zero's biggest improvement in terms of speed when the speed and body strength can't reach the sub-light speed or beam level. Space jump is actually an improvement on the basis of shadow jump. Shadow jump must use two shadow areas within a short distance as jump points to move. This ability itself has great limitations, once there are no shadows to use in the battle location, this ability is useless.
Space jump completely ignores this limitation, allowing Zero to jump on all terrains. To do this is easier said than done. Zero first needs to analyze the ability of shadow jumping, and then re-establish the ability model. By eliminating the defects in the ability model, refilling the data, and then using the memory group to change the original ability code according to the ability model, the shadow jump can be evolved into a space jump.
In addition to allowing Zero to jump in a short distance, Space Jump can also allow Zero to ignore space to attack. Simply put, Zero can send part of his body into space, and then emerge from the other side to strike the enemy. However, this kind of move can only be used as a surprise attack. If it is used frequently, it will cause a lot of burden on the body, and secondly, it will be easy for opponents who are proficient in space attacks to counter.
To the best of zero knowledge, certain abilities in the perception domain can disturb space. When the space channel becomes unstable, the violent energy turbulence inside is enough to make a certain part of Zero's body become fragmented. But there are other ways to use the space jump. Of course, this ability still needs to spend some time to explore and perfect it.
The growth of both Zero and Su is very obvious, but in contrast, they have also put in nearly two years of hard work. Although these hours passed in the spiritual realm, they also paid hard work and sweat. Starting today, Zero has decided not to use the spiritual realm for training. Although this saves a lot of time, entering the spiritual realm frequently will mess up one's own time perception. In addition, the training of the two has come to an end, and the improvement of staying here is very limited. On this point, Su also agrees.
Calculating the time, it is not far from Cinderella's execution time. In addition to training, the two also need to rest in order to face the next challenge in the best condition. So for the next few days, Su looked lazy every day, while Zero spent half a day working, and spent the rest of the time with Lia, letting himself relax completely.
Under such circumstances, there are still ten days before Sauron's appointed execution day!
