Devouring the Starry Sky begins with the battle of geniuses

Chapter 3 From Prey to Hunter
In the dim martial arts training hall, a strong and tall figure kept twisting his body, and the outline of muscles and swords vaguely emerged, like a horned dragon dancing in the darkness.

The pure muscles are sometimes tense and sometimes relaxed, stretching and contracting freely like extremely elastic rubber bands. Then they constantly change the moves of the sword, whether they are chopping, slashing, or teasing. The changes are so smooth and smooth that it is almost invisible. The gaps between moves.

As the muscles exerted force again and again, a large amount of air was inhaled and exhaled by Hunzhen, and there were bursts of smoke-like physical breath rolling around.

Sweat is flowing, heat is rising, and the Hun Zhen sword technique has been completely derived from the original sword manual and has its own rhythm. Only the breathing guidance technique that stimulates the original energy of the gene remains unchanged.

Although Hunzhen had been complaining that the company treated them as killers as slaves and livestock, he could not find fault with the training techniques, martial arts, and secret techniques provided.

After entering the training camp for one month, every new killer can choose a complete set of training secrets covering training, fighting, and killing methods.

Compared with the high prices required by Earth Martial Arts School, the company distributes them completely for free.

However, these killers are originally part of the company's property. They distribute knowledge that can be copied and pasted infinitely, which is completely zero consumption for the company.

Leak?This is even more impossible to discuss under chip monitoring.

As for the special case of picking up a mind helmet that connects to the virtual universe...

In the virtual universe, this apprentice-level secret method is worthless.

But for Hun Zhen and others at the bottom of the universe, it can solve an urgent need.

The secret method he practiced is called "Fire Wind Sword", in which the cultivation method and martial arts complement each other and can be practiced at the same time.When you major in one, you can also improve the progress of the other.

Despite its unremarkable name, from this point alone, we can see its superiority over the "Nine Layers of Thunder Sword" that Luo Feng used to get started as a warrior.

What's more, "The Gale Knife" is divided into seven levels. After you complete the entry level, you can exert 1.25 times the power with one swing of the knife. The first level can fully exert 2.5 times the power, and reach the Dacheng state, which is 10 times the power!
Compared to the 7 times the combined force of the nine layers of the "Nine Layers of Thunder Sword", it is three times higher!
This is not the end of it. With practice, it can also allow people to better understand the artistic conception of wind, which is of great benefit to entering the planetary level.

In the apprenticeship stage, building a foundation for a warrior can be said to be the best choice.

It completely destroyed "Nine Layers of Thunder Knife".

This is not surprising. After all, at that time, the earth was just a new martial arts, and the strongest people were planet-level horns. How could a force like this, which has already been in contact with the universe, develop a more complete method under the circumstances of predecessors planting trees? The cultivation method is ordinary.

"Beep."

The phone rang softly. Hunzhen sheathed her sword and said with a curl of her lips: "The company's efficiency is really slow. Do I have to practice a set before passing the review?"

Picking up the phone and clicking on the text message, there was a location coordinate.

Within three seconds of Hunzhen writing down the coordinates, the information was automatically deleted, completely leaving no trace.

Hunzhen opened the curtains and took a look at the night scene outside that was dyed in six midnight colors by neon lights. After briefly fixing it, he hurried out the door.

The coordinates in the text message were exactly what the company told him about the real-time location of his nearest colleague.

The killer chips have their own induction between them, but they will only be triggered if they are within 500 meters of each other.

Night City is so big that the chance of encountering someone by chance is too low. The only way is to purchase information from the company by spending kill points.

After taking photos to verify the kill of her colleagues a few days ago, Hunzhen only received one hundred points. This location information that was only sent once would cost a full twenty points...

"It's so expensive!"

While cursing, Hunzhen was still not stingy and spent the "money" honestly and hurried out the door.

Once you arrive late and the target changes position significantly, the money will be wasted.

Fortunately, when Qingzhen took the subway and moved to another area, it didn't take long to confirm the resonance of the chip.

He looked up and passed through the bustling crowds and the white buildings that seemed to be stacked on top of each other.

In a street cafe, he saw a man wearing a white dome hat, sunglasses and a beard, drinking coffee and playing with his mobile phone. Their eyes met, and the corners of their mouths curled up. The bearded man's pupils shrank.

The cafe is located at a crossroads, with a wide view, but behind it is a maze-like narrow alley with dense buildings.

Whether it is for observation or retreat, it is an excellent place.

The innocent smile faded: "Start the simulation."

[I was in Night City. I just got off the subway and saw the figure drinking coffee. I checked my eyes and saw that he was the person neither of us wanted to meet.But there is no other way. Now that you have met, under the coercion of the laws of the dark forest, you both know that the next fight is inevitable]

[You are of similar cultivation. Your combat awareness and swordsmanship are one to two levels higher than your opponent's, but your opponent also has a home field advantage.In the end, you narrowly defeated three moves and won the battle at the cost of minor injuries]

Hunzhen quickly scanned the first two lines of the simulation records. After confirming his victory, he directly chose soul inheritance without looking at the follow-up.

[You chose soul inheritance]

[You once again feel the artistic conception of wind, completely cross the threshold, and gain some combat experience and other knowledge and experience]

The influx of a large amount of combat experience did not bring any discomfort to Hunzhen, but instead made him as sharp as an unsheathed sword.

The bearded man felt a pure murderous intention, his pores shrank, his expression changed drastically, and he broke the window and fled towards the back of the coffee shop without hesitation.

Nearly ten days have passed since the day when the counterattack was completed. Now, Hun Zhen's martial arts and body skills have both crossed the threshold of the artistic conception. With the blessing of the artistic conception of wind, his speed is comparable to that of a fifth-level warrior.

He crossed the 500-meter distance in less than three seconds and entered the dark alley. His speed suddenly dropped sharply, and his body suddenly evaded to the right without any warning.

There was a loud bang, and the bullets from the heavy sniper rifle were shot out of the darkness, grazing Hun Zhen's body and flying past.

"Impossible!" In the darkness, Lu Xiu looked extremely horrified when he saw that Hun Zhen had avoided his sniper attack in advance like a prophet.

The anti-material sniper rifle he used fired at a speed exceeding one thousand meters per second, but this guy avoided it with ease without being prepared! ?

Even a fourth-level expert might not be able to do this!
At this moment, he was completely convinced that the other party was coming for him!

Buying other people’s location information to hunt at the beginning of the month is crazy!
It won't be long soon, and the strength is even more terrifying!
The bearded man couldn't help but feel a hint of despair in his heart.

If he really knew what the bearded man was thinking, he would definitely laugh at him.

So what if you have a strong sense of fighting?After all, he was still a third-level warrior, so there was no reason why he could perfectly react to the opponent's sniper attack from this angle.

But with the blessing of the memory of the battle, Hunzhen already had the experience of fighting with the bearded man, and secretly guarded against a cold shot.

He predicted the opponent's actions, not a temporary reaction due to lack of intelligence.

The brief daze of the bearded man was enough for his innocence to burst into speed again.

This colleague came back to his senses in time, and was driven by the biological survival instinct to regain his fighting spirit, trying to fight to the death.

But in the fight between life and death, a moment's delay is the distance between life and death.

The avoided sniper attack directly exposed the position of his beard.

Precisely because the opponent has the intention to fight back, it is easier to fall into a killing situation.

This time, Hunzhen was better than himself in the simulation. He killed the opponent lightly without even leaving any minor injuries, then photographed the body and uploaded it.

He drifted away amid the screams and noises of passers-by who gradually gathered to watch the show.

As for the rest of the funeral affairs, the company's employees will naturally handle it, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

I casually booked a single room in a hotel and had just completed my first active hunt, but Hun Zhen was unexpectedly very calm.

Because he knows very well - this is just the beginning.

For his purpose, he will wipe out all other killers in Night City except himself.

only……

He glanced at the previous simulation records and sighed secretly.

After killing the bearded man, the simulator (what Hunzhen calls himself in the simulation after spending ten days to fully understand the system) did not continue to kill according to his own wishes, but remained silent and walked on the same path as before. Simulate similar roads several times.

"It seems we have to keep working hard."

Hunzhen quickly applied to the company for the next target.

He realized very early on that there was only a lower limit, not an upper limit, for killing colleagues to gain points.

It's just...the killers can't leave the originally divided city until the two-year period arrives and the company gathers survivors.

So, what if someone wipes out all other colleagues in the city before that?

The Gu King's early birth must be something the company is happy to see.

But for the Gu King's body, whether it is good or bad is another matter.

However, this will undoubtedly allow Qingzhen to enter the company's top management's vision earlier and gain a higher level of cultivation.

And as long as the strength improves quickly enough and has the power to win the genius battle before the three-year period arrives, Hunzhen does not have to fear any monsters.

Risk and opportunity coexist.

There are great horrors and great opportunities between life and death!
He already knows the reason why the income from soul inheritance is only about one-tenth of the theoretical value under dozens of times of time.

For an ordinary genius like him (self-proclaimed), several years of hard training are far inferior to several life-and-death fights that narrowly escaped death!

However, no matter how much Hunzhen hints at herself before the simulation, the simulated person will not fall into a situation of actively seeking death!
Then turn the initiative into a passive one!

Turning the originally peaceful Night City upside down, it became the center of the storm!Let those frightened killers take the initiative to unite to deal with him!
In order to survive, Sims will naturally unleash their infinite potential and maximize the use of gains from previous simulations.

"My life is colorful because of fighting!"

Innocence and fearlessness!
With third-level cultivation and artistic conception, his true strength rivals the peak of fourth-level!

Theoretically, when Hun Zhen kills Hun Zhen and the remaining killers in Night City unite, they will be at best [-]/[-] equal to Hun Zhen.

This still does not include the simulation system.

With a simulation system that can avoid most crises, Hunzhen has no reason not to fight.

What?You said it was actually me in the simulation who was fighting hard?

In reality, I just pick it up off the shelf?

Simulation is simulation, and actual combat is actual combat.

The risks in actual combat are not called risks! ?
