7. The Day of the White Rose on the Battlefield IX
"You said, 'I hope the hero can wear the armor he made with his own hands.' This...has come true. Isn't the lady a hero?"
"There are all kinds of heroes."
Turning his back to his disciple, Lorenz's tone was heavy and difficult.
"For example, in the current royal capital, ordinary people who support each other and reduce the scope of disasters as much as possible can also be called 'unsung heroes'. In an abnormal world called 'battlefield', the more people kill, the more they are praised.
The same exists, longing for a 'hero'. Looking forward to being able to burn
For the citizens who can extinguish the fire and arrest the bad guys, the little devils who stand up for them are indeed visible and tangible heroes. When the dust settles, for the government that needs to appease the people
, an easily accepted billboard can also be called a 'hero'."
The same thing has been repeated many times in history. Anyone who knows a little about history will understand that Charlemagne has reached the edge of the cliff. No matter who wins the battle for the throne, he cannot be comforted.
People who have doubts or even negative emotions about the royal family should not use those who are ambitious
If the countries and forces take action, a bloody revolutionary storm will sweep across the land of Charlemagne. Everyone knows how terrible an out-of-control mob is. As long as they feel that they cannot survive, they will not care how noble your bloodline is.
No matter how long your family tree is, even if you are a king, they will still show you the guillotine.
At this time, relief, tax cuts and other means alone are not enough. The national treasury drained by the war cannot support it for a long time. The embattled diplomatic dilemma makes it impossible to obtain assistance from abroad. The only thing the government can do
What is important is to try to shift the focus, make the immediate difficulties disappear from the public's sight, try to improve the people's tolerance, and preferably maintain the unity of the whole country. The themes that can meet the above requirements are "respected heroes" and "let go of everything"
Conflict and concerted efforts defeat the enemy."
"Through intelligence operations and public opinion guidance, promote the 'hero' as the 'object of imitation', use the facial makeup and symbolic impression created to encourage citizens to imitate, create a 'powerful enemy' and make 'patience'
and 'dedication' rationalization. In the end, the two are just the pros and cons of a billboard."
For example, the "Military Gods" of Kudanban, such as the "ABCD Encirclement Network", such as the shining medal winners. For example, the "Military and British ghosts" or "imperialism and its lackeys".
In any era and anywhere, cheap opposing concepts like "brave" and "devil" always exist and are constantly exploited.
This is not mean, but sometimes it is unfair to the people who are being made into idols.
"Heroes will not disappoint, heroes cannot disappoint - carrying such a cross. Stepping over many corpses to achieve the ambitions and goals of the superior... Hanging with shining medals, they will be honored by those who have lost their husbands, sons, and brothers.
When the family asked, 'What you are wearing is not a medal, but the bodies of our relatives!' How should the young lady respond?"
Everyone has their own morals and justice. Politicians, religious people, and careerists can separate right and wrong from morality and hide in a safe place without caring about inciting young people to die in the name of the country. Go to the battlefield with a strong sense of justice.
How should young people who hope to end war and bloodshed single-handedly face the numerous corpses they have stepped on along the way after the war is over?
A peaceful and prosperous age that can be created without getting your hands dirty and without killing people and shedding blood - does not exist. The world is such a cruel and realistic existence.
"In the end, there are no heroes, only young people whose life trajectories were ruined. And the negative legacy left by us adults who can't change anything... If there is really a god who controls destiny writing that kid's life, then he
He must be a sadist who doesn’t understand human hearts and what love is, and is full of bad taste.”
Breathing out heavy turbid air, the high-raised hammer fell again.
##########
"Um?"
Li Lin's brows moved slightly, then returned to his impeccable and charming smile.
The Supreme Archon of Alfheim, who is always the spokesperson of the word "perfection", is no exception in terms of physical health. Under the control of sophisticated body management procedures, the Archon's health index has always been very stable. The exclusive medical team just because
This is because of the paranoid advice of the elders in the Council that "it is better to keep the imperial doctor."
And this "forever healthy" adult had a slight urge to sneeze a few tenths of a second ago.
(Perhaps it is a false positive of body information and needs to be carefully checked later.)
"You also get distracted, which is really rare."
Murderous concern came from behind. Li Lin responded in an elegant tone without looking back.
"I suddenly feel like sneezing. Maybe I'm catching a cold, or as the popular saying goes - someone is talking about me."
"If that were the case, we would have suffocated to death because of other people's curses and sneezes."
Richelieu strode forward with a fierce smile, his strong and tight muscles exuding a moist red light, and the black crystals made a shattering sound under his leather shoes.
Behind Richelieu are countless black diamond fragments. Just a few minutes ago, these crystals once had the appearance of organic creatures, but now they are just a pile of silicon crystals that are slowly weathering and disappearing.
"The thing you created has not been properly educated or trained."
"I'm really sorry. In fact, you can think of these children as warm-up objects. After all, the opportunity to fight with a country's prime minister or a cleric of the melee department is quite rare."
The relaxed conversation and laughter were just like the daily exchanges between these two people, but the scenery under their feet silently told how abnormal these two people were.
The guy who created a small ecosystem and maintained the appearance of a human; the guy who smashed a group of monsters that could destroy an entire country in just a few minutes, and whose body outline resembled a monster—these two are not residents of the normal world in any way.
"Actually, I just received intelligence that the wheeled assault gun sent out to snipe Roland has been killed. The 'White Rose' that you carefully sent people to build played an important role in the battle. Should I congratulate you?
?”
"That's probably because you teach well. But you failed to keep such an outstanding child in your own camp. As an adoptive father, you really failed."
"On the contrary, I think this is the embodiment of father's love. Over-protection and blind doting are distorted forms of father's love. Letting children experience setbacks in their life journey, accumulate life experiences, and silently watch and record - this is what a father is.
The correct form of love. That’s what I say... But it’s not right for an old man to secretly investigate the body data of teenagers after sexual conversion, customize dolls with proportions at high prices, and prepare a large number of uniforms including handmade armors, changing one set a day.
Will you understand?"
"I really dare to say...it is obvious that he is distorting other people's lives without permission. This guy who doesn't treat people as human beings actually has the nerve to talk about fatherly love. It really makes people want to vomit."
"I have already said that it is father's love. Forget it... there will be no results if we continue to argue. I am very busy. I will try 'Father's Love Cuisine No. 16' later. When I first learned to make parent-child dishes, but
I have made the bold statement that "I will do the big thing for Luo Lan's belly", but it's not okay if I don't live up to it. Anyway, for the sake of important experiments and future strategies, let me get closer to my ideal.
Get rid of the bugs on the flowers."
As soon as the words were spoken, the two men, filled with murderous intent, disappeared from the spot and collided head-on.
The fist the size of a human head whipped up a strong wind, and the black diamond fragments under his feet were blown into the air. A punch hit the root of the liquid metal that was slashed diagonally. The extending blade collapsed like a candle thrown into the furnace, followed by killing.
The long hair that came over pierced the afterimage of the fist, and was immediately hit by a side elbow. Looking at the gap between offense and defense, the blade stabbing from below was stepped into the ground.
——As a target of hand-to-hand combat, it is relatively difficult to deal with.
Adjusting his center of gravity to avoid an upper body split, Li Lin made a calm judgment.
He is good at long-distance combat. He is also good at close combat. Fa Jin, Wings of Blades, and Magic Hair - a three-dimensional attack and defense combination covering medium and short distances. Even the Gatling cannon firing at close range can be easily stopped. It can be said that
Fighting Li Lin in close combat is a suicidal act. The only suspense is not winning or losing, but how many pieces the body will turn into.
Now, this "absolute" concept has been broken. Richelieu is mercilessly smashing the seemingly unbreakable wall. Under the violent storm of fists, the wall of sharp blades is as precarious as a candle in the wind.
The most primitive and ancient weapon, the fist, suppressed the sharp blade armed with cutting-edge technology. It sounded like a scene that would only appear in a story, but it was really happening at this moment.
The reason why this happened is not because some elderly grandfather, inspired by his admiration for the holy girl, realized the Alaya Consciousness, and the small universe was blazing. He transformed into a warrior of love and fought with a certain parent-child control ghost father BOSS.
Three hundred rounds of fighting - this incredible reason. Richelieu was able to compete with Li Lin on an equal footing entirely because of reasons that were more realistic and broke common sense.
——It’s a shame he can attack in that way.
The corners of Li Lin's mouth were slightly raised, and the wind of the fist as sharp as a blade whizzed past.
"He is 210 centimeters tall and weighs 210 kilograms. He can have a body like Doraemon. It is estimated that after the increase in body functions, the muscle fiber density is 52 times that of a normal person. The high-frequency vibration attached to the fist was originally applied to metal materials
It's used to cut metal, and it's produced by the physical body... Shouldn't you go find a brain doctor to check it out?"
"Don't worry about it."
"A joint with a 140-degree range of motion in the front, back, left, and right is like cheating. It looks like I need to find an orthopedic surgeon."
Li Lin jumped back to avoid the incoming fist, and landed lightly 20 meters away.
The person facing him could hardly be called a human being.
His hands, feet, and neck were all turned in impossible directions, and even his spine was bent like a snake. He stood on one foot, dropped it to the ground, and then turned it around so that the bright head behind him was staring at him.
This is not something that can be summed up by just saying "skeletal surprise". The body twisting like an octopus should normally be a corpse.
"The sense of balance seems to be different from that of ordinary people. Were you a sailor when you were young?"
"...The eyes are still so poisonous."
As opposed to seasickness, landsickness does exist.
People who were born on ships and spent 80% of their lives at sea will experience symptoms similar to "seasickness" after landing. This is because their sense of balance has become accustomed to the bumpy life at sea. On stable land, the body's sense of balance is impaired.
If it is disrupted, seasickness, airsickness or land sickness will occur. For real sea dwellers, the earth is an unstable place.
But... if the joints of the whole body can twist at will, and even the cervical vertebrae can move 140 degrees forward, backward, left, and right, in this world where normal people will definitely get dizzy, let alone fight back, the land fainting patient is equivalent to returning to the sea, and can easily
Counterattack.
An iron fist strong enough to crush a black diamond;
Joints with extraordinary range of motion;
The sense of balance that allows you to stand on one toe and counterattack even under extreme conditions;
Three characteristics beyond common sense turned the 70-year-old man into an octopus with fists all over his body.
The power amplifier is both powerful and unexpected. Even if you know the relevant information, you are still hard to guard against in a battle. In addition, due to the abnormal range of joint movement, it becomes impossible for the opponent to use joint techniques and grapple techniques. If you are not careful, you will be strangled by that super soft body.
(What a secretive old fox.)
Over there, Richelieu's evaluation of Li Lin was not much different.
On the surface, Li Lin has been beaten, but in fact he is the one who is able to do it with ease. Organizing defenses, setting traps, observing and analyzing the opponent's movements, analyzing moves, judging the development of the battle situation, and correcting errors - all the above actions are completed at the same time.
Incorporate it into the next wave of offensive and steadily expand your advantage.
This is beyond the realm of "genius". It is more appropriate to say that he is a fighting machine covered with blades and tentacles.
(Even though the advantage is so obvious, you are still cautious...it is more difficult than imagined.)
Just as Richelieu was smiling bitterly in his heart, loud applause came from behind.
"It's amazing. For a human being, it's really admirable to do it to this extent."
Praise that comes from the bottom of my heart, without any pretentiousness.
If it were said by a knight with good moral character in a sacred duel, it might weaken the hostility of his opponent. But coming from the mouth of Li Lin, who has no regard for morality and humanity, it would only make people wary.
"It's... amazing."
There was no change in the tone or speed of the repeated praise, but it made people feel inexplicably cold in their ears.
"For being able to work so hard for such a small thing, human beings are indeed very powerful, aren't they?"
Richelieu tensed his body. His instinct told him that the "monster" in front of him was shedding its disguise as a human being, revealing its true and terrifying face.
"How long did it take to train your body to be like this? I think it was not only the result of personal practice, but also related magic research and human body modification within the church. How can you do this for something of this level?
Working hard, even across individuals, groups, and generations, it is simply incredible for human beings."
"...What exactly do you want to say?"
"It's very simple, that's all."
In the blink of an eye, all the joints twisted in opposite directions, and the head turned 180 degrees, grinning sneer.
"You are willing to dedicate your life to accomplishing things that I can accomplish at a glance. Is there anything more praiseworthy than such diligence?"
In the final analysis, human martial arts practice is through repeated exercises over many years to strengthen strength, speed, and accuracy while allowing the body to remember the moves. Eventually, the moves become part of the body's reflexes. Therefore, as long as you have enough eyesight and patience, although it is not possible
may be immediately applied to actual combat,
But imitating moves is actually not difficult. However, the flexibility of the body and the expansion of the range of joint movement are different. Unless one consciously manipulates people's physiology or transforms the human body, people cannot achieve that kind of abnormal skills. But Li Lin
But it was very easy, as if it was done naturally.
Li Lin's physical ability is fundamentally different from that of humans. In addition to the powerful output given by genetic manipulation and the retraction furnace, his self-management ability that has developed ergonomics and mechanics to the extreme is also indispensable.
For Li Lin, physical activity is not exercise, but mental work. Mastering the operating status of every muscle, bone and organ, and incorporating it into calculations together with the conditions of the surrounding environment, he can instantly construct the most efficient work in his mind, so that he can achieve success.
Tons of force are displayed with nanometer precision.
This is Li Lin's way of "learning".
The power of exception;
As powerful as a foul;
Being so powerful that even "effort" is almost not allowed;
"In other words, are we going to get serious now?"
"Seriously? I've been serious from the beginning. If you think I'm looking down on you by not using beam weapons or other abilities, that's really an injustice."
Gathering the blade wings and magic hair, Li Lin slowly stretched his hand into the air.
Then, he looked at Richelieu who had taken a posture with cold, seemingly bored eyes, and pushed his left palm to the right.
With just a gentle push, a large piece of the Black Diamond Wall 20 meters away was dug out. After the storm carrying the crystal diamond fragments swept around, what appeared in front of Richelieu was what was left on the Black Diamond Wall.
A palm-shaped hollow that is as tall as a person.
"If a large carnivorous dinosaur wants to kill a few specific ants without destroying the ant nest and killing too many ants - if you are not serious, it is impossible, right?"
A simple sentence made Richelieu understand that what was waiting for him at the end of the battle was full of despair.
That kind of monster is impossible to win.
"It's almost time to end. Although the 'Battle for the Saint Maiden's Tentacles' is also a touching scene, it's more appropriate for me to give you a ride with my fists, well... 10% of the effort is equivalent to 10,000 tons
***The equivalent of a fist, you shouldn’t be disappointed.”
The humanoid nightmare grinned and disappeared from his eyes.
Before the body took any reflex action, a sense of disobedience arose first. The left arm was broken in reverse and unable to move. I subconsciously kicked the ground away. I even tried to pull the arm apart while holding it, but my body did not move at all.
The fingers inserted deep into his shoulders fixed Richelieu's figure.
Without making the nails longer or wearing finger gloves, the five sharp knives converted from the 10 tons of grip force penetrated the palm of the hand and penetrated into the tendons and penetrated into the bones. The thumb of the free right hand was extended and aimed at the old man's ribs.
No matter how hard the human body is exercised, there are still weaknesses that cannot be strengthened by exercise. For example, the temples, spine, trachea, vagina, and intercostal nerves.
The Military Statistics Bureau of the Republic of China government once had a torture method called "fried pork ribs". The torturer put on leather gloves and pressed hard on the victim's ribs. The torturer often couldn't bear the severe pain, fainted, and even died.
This is already the case with bare hands. What will happen if an industrial 10,000-ton forging press or a large construction pile driver hits the ribs?
You may also need to add an electric drill.
The thumb against the broken ribs slowly rotated, the rotten bones and flesh were tightened, and a silent scream came from Richelieu's mouth.
There are a total of 12 pairs of ribs in the human body. In other words, this kind of pain that makes people want to commit suicide will happen 23 times.
The thumb was raised again, and the second blow was about to come.
Seizing the only gap, Richelieu's body twisted at full speed, and in the blink of an eye, his still intact limbs wrapped around Li Lin's right hand like an octopus, his legs crossed to twist his upper arm and shoulder joint, and his right hand tightened his wrist.
Wrist cross holding. A joint strangulation technique performed with the whole body's strength, using the feet and back as the fulcrum to break the elbow joint.
Victory can no longer be expected, but at least in exchange for an arm——
With the determination to fight to the death, Richelieu's horizons gradually improved.
The cardinal's muscles were strengthened throughout his body, his weight increased to 210 kilograms, and his muscle fiber density was 52 times that of a normal person. He was lifted above his head like a feather.
"Ultimate——"
Quietly, slowly, with a sigh, Li Lin, whose face was stepped on by Richelieu, said:
"Father loves with an iron fist."
Without any skills or tricks, he rounded his arms and punched the ground.
Smashing down at dozens of times the speed of sound, a 10,000-ton bomb—equivalent to two-thirds of the energy of a Hiroshima-class atomic bomb—was released the moment it hit the ground. A strong flash illuminated the ever-dark imaginary space, enough to burn several kilometers in a radius.
The kilometer-long high-heat shock wave crushed the remaining black diamond forest and blew it away. The fireball and thick smoke continued to roll and rise, and finally turned into a mushroom-shaped cloud.
"call--"
Li Lin took a deep breath and dusted off the dust on his coat.
The place where he was standing was at the bottom of a crater like a crater or the center of a nuclear explosion. It was surrounded by red-hot stones and cooling and solidifying magma. Richelieu - as the literal meaning expresses, leaving no trace
's disappeared.
The moment he was hit by a direct blow, the cardinal evaporated with part of the ground, leaving not even a hair on his head.
Facing the victory and tragedy caused by himself, Li Lin sighed again, and then whispered to himself:
"Next... Roland's side seems to be over. I'd better go back quickly. I still have some time to practice my cooking skills before the next battle meeting. What should I do this time? English dongniao pie?
Scotland's national dish, 'Haggis'? The Romans' 'Zodiac' or 'Trojan pig'?"
The Archon of Alfheim, who was thinking about what dark dishes to cook, walked out of the bottom of the pit without looking at the pit behind him or the black diamonds that were weathering and disappearing around him. As his figure disappeared, everything fell into nothingness.
