Starting from Zero

When we arrived on the city wall, the Buddhism pioneers just arrived outside the city, but these guys didn’t put on a posture that they were about to attack the city, but started camping on the spot. A big camp was soon established, and all of us were a question mark.

"What do they mean?" Hong Yue asked suspiciously, looking at the large tent outside the city wall.

"The ghost knows!"

"Are they going to fight us for a long time?" I muttered to myself in confusion.

"But the problem is that we are not in a hurry? The longer the delay, the more disadvantaged it is for them?" Hong Yue asked me back.

"This is probably only the buddhism guys and the old heaven knows!" Eagle turned and said to me: "No matter how they arrange, we still have to be on guard."

I nodded. "That's right, anyway, we don't care about procrastinating, so I won't move and I won't move. Just be careful."

Buddhism has been doing weird things for the rest of the time. They first set up the camp, and then they brought in a large amount of construction materials across a grassland and built the city face to face with us.

"What are they doing?" Hong Yue looked at the construction scene opposite in a frenzy, his brain was completely in chaos.

"This...honestly I don't know what they are doing."

"Would you like to send someone to investigate?" Rose asked me.

"Do you think our people are going in in this situation?"

"It's estimated to be enough!" The eagle suddenly said: "By the way, where is the giant mosquito outpost?"

"Yes!" I slapped my head and ran back to call the giant mosquito outpost for support. Fortunately, the giant mosquito outpost is a fast castle, which soon flew over from the country. When it arrived, there was still a little light in the sky. Soon a large group of scout mosquitoes flew out of the giant mosquito outpost and sneaked into the construction site of Buddhism. We all squeezed in front of the monitors in the giant mosquito post and watched the images returned by the various scout mosquitoes.

"Buddhism seems to be building cities!" Eagle said while looking at the screen.

"Wait, that place just now..." Rose hurriedly pointed to a construction site at the edge of the screen and said to the operator next to it: "Let this mosquito go back, quickly."

When the scout mosquito transferred to the area just now, we happened to see some people constructing the walls of a building. We didn't see it clearly before, but what we saw after the picture stabilized immediately made us notice that the wall turned out to be just a thin layer on the outside. The interior of the seemingly sturdy building is all made of wood. The outside is covered with a thin layer of plant fiber skin, and then a layer of soil-like thing is pasted on the surface, and finally made by divine force shaping. This kind of seemingly sturdy building, but in fact, they are just wood, soil and some plant fibers. In reality, a single person can tear down the city.

"Strange, what are they planning to do in building this kind of tofu project?"

"I don't know. But it's not a good thing anyway."

"It makes sense. "

Kristina suddenly said: "Don't you think this building looks like our council hall?"

"en?" Kristina said Let us turn our eyes back to the building together. I just paid attention to the details before, but now I look at it as a whole and it feels exactly the same as Christina said. This building is not similar, but completely built according to our parliament hall. Whether it is structure or appearance, it looks exactly the same from any angle.

Rose suddenly said to the operator: "I will find a higher flying mosquito immediately. I want to see the top view of the city."

"Understand."

< p> The picture changed from a low-altitude close-up view to a large-scale top view in the air. When we saw this picture, we were all stunned.

"Isn't this the contract city? Did the mosquitoes fly to the wrong place?"

"No, no. This is not the contract city, this is the city Buddhism is building." I mean Looking at the workers and some constructions in the city: "Look here. The construction staff of these all are Buddhism are not ours, and the progress is not right. This city is not as complete as ours."

"That means that Buddhism is imitating Contract City?" Hong Yue asked uncertainly.

"Not imitating the contract city, but imitating the full-scale model of the contract city. This thing is only an empty shelf of the contract city, and it is empty inside!"

"They What are you going to do?"

Ross said: "Although I don’t know exactly what Buddhism is doing, I’m pretty sure it’s definitely not a good thing. After all, judging from the current state of everyone, Buddhism should be The most anxious party. They should launch an attack immediately after arriving here, so that it is in the best interest of Buddhism. But instead of attacking, they stopped to build such a strange full-size model, which is obviously not logical. Unless..."

"Unless what?" Everyone's eyes gathered.

"Unless the building of this model city can bring much greater benefits to Buddhism than direct attack, for them now time is life, and they are willing to waste time to complete such a thing. It’s the key to be able to decide the situation of the battle, otherwise it’s impossible to tell why Buddhism did it."

Because I always feel that the city model in front of me is very dangerous, I finally couldn’t sit still. "No, we don't know the purpose of this thing. We always wait for something to happen sooner or later. I'll go to foreign aid to see if I can help."

"Okay, let's watch it here." Eagle said.

I immediately teleported to Celestial Court after leaving the Contract City quickly. Since the thing is artificially made by Buddhism, people who want to know what is the use of Buddhism will naturally know. Although the Buddhism people in India are impossible tell me what the thing is, there are still a lot of Buddhism Avatars in Celestial Court now! They should also know what Buddhism knows, unless this is a new technology developed after they left India. But the probability is really negligible.

Seeing that I ran back so quickly, Jade Emperor thought something was wrong, so he asked me: "You ran back in such a hurry. Could it be that Buddhism captured your city?"

"No."

"Then you... I need your help now. Hurry up and find the Tathagata Avatar. If there is an emergency, I need him to help me see it."

"Okay." Jade Emperor immediately asked Taibai Jinxing to give the Tathagata Avatar Came here, but the Tathagata Avatar did not come by himself, but was carried. Because the effectiveness of suppressing medicine is getting weaker and weaker, he is basically unable to move now.

As soon as the Tathagata Avatar was put down, I immediately set up the large crystal communication machine, and then clicked on the screen to show the situation of the model city outside the contract city. "This time I really feel uneasy, so I asked you to help me compelled by circumstances. Don't be surprised if you look like Tathagata." The Tathagata Avatar, who was lying on the stretcher, waved his hands and waved his hands. He was too lazy to even speak now. Seeing that he has become like this, I stopped being polite with him, and directly introduced the situation of this model city, and then asked: "I don't know if you know what this is? Buddhism goes to the periphery of our city. We are really confused when we are attacking the city, but we have repaired such a thing."

The boss of the Tathagata Avatar stared at the thing immediately, and then he supported it with difficulty, raised his hand and took it out of his body. A small box similar to a jewelry box. Of course, the Tathagata is impossible to have a jewelry box, this thing should have other uses. I saw him touch the box a few times, then put his hand on the top of the box and press it lightly. A round hole about two inches in diameter was opened on the top of the box with a sudden click, and then a reel more than a foot long suddenly He jumped out of the hole in the box and fell on Tathagata. Seeing that the scroll is bigger than the box, I don't know how to put it in. It is estimated that the box should be connected to the space channel, otherwise it is impossible to install such a large reel. Tathagata tremblingly picked up the scroll on his body and stretched it out to me, and I hurried over to take it down.

I pointed to myself and asked him: "Let me see?"

The Tathagata was slightly nodded, and then lay still.

I carefully removed the red ribbon from the scroll, and then pulled the scroll horizontally, but found that the direction was wrong. "Taibai, come and help."

Taibai Jinxing hurriedly came to help me grasp one end of the scroll, and then I asked another god general to come and help pull the other end to fully unfold the entire scroll. I didn't expect that the entire scroll unfolded was hundreds of meters long, and finally several gods were called for help before the scroll was completely lifted up. After the scroll was fully opened, the Jade Emperor couldn't help but leaned over to watch it together. It turns out that the above record is a large-scale spell research report. Although this is obviously an unfinished technology, it is actually not much different from the finished product. The only difference is the final finishing point, which is not difficult at all. .

According to the content recorded on the scroll, this should be a large-scale spell similar to witchcraft. It turns out that this thing was not made by Buddhism itself, but from the West. Buddhism is also getting It took a long time for some content to be perfected as it is now. According to the records in the scroll, this spell is specifically aimed at enemy buildings and large weapon systems, and has no effect on living lifeforms. To use this spell, you need to build a full-scale model of the target first, just like the one being built by Buddhism outside Contract City. This full-scale model must be built with the specified materials, and when the model is completed, you can start using spell. The use of this spell requires a lot of harsh conditions, and requires a large number of powerful wizards to cast jointly, and also requires some very strange sacrifices. After that, the spell will have two completely different development directions, and any one of them can be controlled by the sorcerer as needed. The first development direction is that once the spell is successfully completed, the full-scale model built before will be replaced with the real goal, which means that the previous model will become a real existence, and the original real goal will become Model. If the model of Buddhism outside Contract City is completed and successfully cast, and the first development direction is chosen, then once the spell is completed, the model of Buddhism will become a city exactly like Contract City, and we will become Standing in a pile of models with only appearance. Originally, we had a little hope of fighting against Buddhism by relying on a strong city defense. Now we suddenly become standing in a model of a pile of mud and rotten wood. Is there still an immortal?

In fact, the first situation is not bad for us. If Buddhism chooses the second development direction, the situation will only get worse. The previous preparations for the second development direction are exactly the same as the first development direction, but when the final part is completed, the mana guidance will be slightly different, which will change the result. Once this second development direction takes effect, then our city will still be our city, but that model will become an individual associated with our city, and they will show each other's state. For example, Buddhism uses the second development direction and successfully casts the spell, and then they only need to burn a model made by torch, and our city will immediately burn up and eventually be burned to ruins, maybe even burned to death. many people. Or they can smash the model they made directly, no matter how they destroy the model, the corresponding location of our city will be damaged as the model, anyway, what happens to the model, our city will also appear The same situation, although the reverse is also valid, but we can't let us destroy the Buddhism model by smashing our own cities, right?

"There is such a weird spell?" Jade Emperor also understood the content of this spell after reading the scroll, and if this spell is really completed, most likely our Contract City cannot be kept. In case that happens, Celestial Court will suffer the most. After all, this city was funded and built by Celestial Court. In case it is destroyed, the Celestial Court's money will be lost if our mission fails.

"Well, what can I do to prevent them from completing this spell?" After reading the scroll, I hurried to the Tathagata Avatar and asked.

The Tathagata Avatar opened his mouth to say something, but it took a long time to say nothing. Seeing that his mouth was moving, he seemed to have something to say, but his voice was too small to hear. Seeing that I don't understand what he means, Tathagata himself is also anxious to brow beaded with sweat, but he is too weak to speak at all. But I quickly figured out a way. "By the way, I have a way to help communicate, you just don't resist for a while." After I finished speaking, Princess summon came out. It is very simple to read shallow thinking when the other party does not resist, and what people want to say is the most typical shallow thinking, so Princess can completely translate between us.

As soon as Princess came out, she began to read the Tathagata Avatar by thinking, and soon we understood what he meant to express. It turns out that Tathagata doesn't know much about this spell, he just has research information. But he said that someone in the Buddhism Avatar this time understands this. After receiving instructions from the Tathagata, we hurriedly found the guy he mentioned. This Buddhism Avatar was originally a high level devil beast in the West, but Buddhism was added later, and the spell mentioned in this scroll was also brought from the West. Of course, this one is just Avatar, the real guy is still in India. This guy is in the same situation as the Tathagata Avatar, and is also in a weak state. Fortunately, Princess can be a translator here.

"How? What did he say?" Seeing Princess standing up, I hurried forward and asked.

"He said that the spell completion conditions are very harsh, and on the other hand, it is very easy to break, because as long as any point of Buddhism does not meet the requirements, the spell will fail."

< p>After listening to Princess's translation, we all understand. This is like a modern large-scale war machine. Although its functions are very powerful, its composition and structure are also extremely complex. The production of such a machine requires harsh conditions, but it is extremely easy to destroy it. As long as any one of the components fails to meet the requirements, the machine will be scrapped. This spell of Buddhism is also the same. It requires various conditions to complete it, and we don't need to prevent all of their methods. As long as any key requirement is destroyed, the spell will naturally not be used.

"Can you ask him about the conditions that are easier to destroy?"

"Okay." Princess turned and continued to communicate with the guy for a while, then turned to us "He said that if he wants to destroy the spell, the easiest way is to destroy the humidity balance around it."

"Ah? Does this spell still require air humidity?"

"Yes Yes. This spell requires the model and the air around the target object to be very humid. Although it is not easy for us to get close to the model, we just need to dry our city."

"The problem is the contract. It’s going to rain soon in the city?"

"This is easy to handle." The Jade Emperor suddenly interrupted: "I'll find a way for you. You wait a moment." Then he called Taibai Jinxing. He came over and gave a brief explanation, and then Taibai Jinxing ran out immediately, and after a while he pulled a god general in blue armor and ran back.

The god general paid respect to the Jade Emperor as soon as he came in, and then ran directly to my side, took a rolled up flag from behind, and handed it out to me. "This is Lei Yufan, just insert it at the highest point in the city, and then read this incantion, to ensure that there will be absolutely no rain around your city." He said and handed out another finger with the paragraph incantion written on it.

After I took the thunderstorm sail, Taibai Jinxing took out a white bottle gourd. "This is a cloud-absorbing bottle gourd. You can open its lid and place it anywhere in the city. It can absorb the moisture within a hundred miles of nearby, ensuring that your city is dry like a desert."

< p>"You really have a lot of weird things in Celestial Court?"

"Celestial Court has been established in China for so long anyway, good things are naturally indispensable."

See you After arriving at these two distinct things, the guy lying on the ground immediately beckoned to Princess again, and Princess quickly leaned up to read his thoughts, then stood up and said: "He said that light absorption of moisture is not a guarantee of foolproofness. If there are more It is safer to break a few conditions."

"So what other conditions can be broken?"

Princess leaned forward to read it for a while, and then relayed: "He said that there are alternatives to other methods, and they may not be useful if they are destroyed. However, two points are very important. One is the integrity of the model. We can find ways to destroy the model city. As long as the part of the model is destroyed in advance After the spell takes effect, the pre-destroyed part will not take effect. If the damage ratio exceeds 10% of the total volume of the model, the entire spell will not be able to start. The model city is so big, it should not be difficult to destroy it. In addition, he still Said, this spell requires a sacrifice to start, and if the sacrifice can be destroyed or taken away, then the spell cannot be carried out."

"What is the sacrifice?"

"The sacrifice is not a thing, but a person. To put it simply, it is a player, but not all players can do it. It must be a virgin who has not done that kind of thing in the game, and the age limit cannot exceed twenty Two years old, no less than 18. This player's profession cannot be a dark profession, it must be a neutral or Light Faction profession, and the personal justice value must exceed 1,000. The most important point is that the player must agree to become a sacrifice It’s useless to tie it up forcibly, because after the spell starts, she will be asked if she’s willing, as long as she answers that she’s unwilling to spell, she will stop immediately. As a sacrifice, she will endure a huge amount of time during the ten minutes of completing the spell. It’s painful, and it will be lowered by five hundred levels at a time, and there will be irregular visual confusion in the future."

I analyzed: "Age and virginity are not a problem, based on the population base of India It should be easy to find. The class and the camp are also simple, but the justice value of more than one thousand is probably hard to find."

"Is it difficult to increase the justice value?" Jade Emperor curiously asked. No matter how strong it is, Jade Emperor is still an NPC, so he doesn't understand this justice value, after all, NPC does not have this attribute.

After the Jade Emperor finished asking, Princess pointed to me directly and said: "The master has no justice value, because his value is negative. If the justice value is lower than zero, it will be displayed as an evil value. The master’s evil The value seems to be close to ten million."

Divine Immortal who was present at the scene cast their eyes on me after listening, and they all showed a so that's how it is expression. , I yelled angrily: "Don't want to be crooked, I am so high because I drank the fountain of evil, doing good deeds do not add justice value, and doing bad deeds multiplying the evil value ten times."

Although I explained it for a long time, the guys in Celestial Court obviously didn't listen at all. They all marked me in the heart as the number one evil element. I can only helplessly interrupt everywhere hoping to distract them. "Speaking of business. Since the sacrifice requires such a high value of justice, it must be difficult to find. Buddhism should be guarded very strictly, right?"

Taibai Jinxing also said: "It makes sense. That sacrifice will have to endure a lot of pain and the cost of losing 500 ranks at a time. It is estimated that even if the previous requirements are met, not many people are willing to do it."

"That may not be possible. "I said: "Although the pain is uncomfortable, it doesn't necessarily mean that no one wants to persist, and you may not know that in this world there are people called masochists. The more others bully him and torture him, the more excited he becomes. There are some people who are naturally more resistant to pain, so this pain may not actually stop everyone. As for the price of 500-level, as long as Buddhism agrees to give a lot of compensation, I think many people will be willing."< /p>

"It's possible." The Jade Emperor also said: "With our Celestial Court's ability, it is not a major event to force a person up to five hundred levels. I think Buddhism should have a similar ability. , So these five hundred levels should be easy to make up. As for the painful problem, although I have never heard of people like masochism, as long as the conditions set by Buddhism are reasonable, there should still be many people willing to do it. But. So many conditions can always block a large group of people, and there should be not much left. As for Purple Moon's Buddhism will protect the sacrifices, don't worry about this. Doesn't Zizhu Fairy and Wukong have a murderous intention for a quota per day? You take the two of them, rush in and kill the sacrifices and run away. Anyway, there is no need to delay for a long time, as long as it hinders the progress of Buddhism. We can't afford to delay Buddhism, as long as we kill the sacrifices once or twice. Buddhism should completely abandon this plan."

"This is possible. Then I will go back first. If it doesn't work, I will come to you to find a solution."

With Lei Yufan and After the cloud sucking bottle gourd returned to the contract city, I quickly released the two treasures, and the effect was really good. The light rain that had started to fall suddenly stopped, and even the clouds disappeared after a few minutes. However, the function of the bottle gourd is too powerful. After the rain cloud disappears, the air begins to become drier and drier, and even the grass on the ground is rapidly withering yellow, but fortunately, this thing is not there. What is the impact of more living.

As soon as the two magic weapons on our side were put out, the Buddhism side was immediately messed up. Without moisture, the spell could not be completed, and Buddhism all began to rush to find a way to solve this problem. But they are busy solving the water problem, but I am busy destroying the other two conditions of Buddhism.

After I told Rose and them about the news from Celestial Court, Rose and they helped me develop a relatively simple plan. The planning process was to first attack the Buddhism by our guild’s long-range weapons. In the city model, although Buddhism will definitely block a lot of shells, as long as one or two shots can be hit, it can reduce our losses and add trouble to Buddhism. In addition, while the cannons are attacking, our guild will use tunnel digging to send some of the player squads into the model city for destruction, and I will also take Zizhu Fairy and Sun Wukong along with these saboteurs to get to Buddhism. Go in the model city. But my goal is different from the saboteurs. Their task is to destroy the huge model and cover us, while our task is to find the "sacrifice" and destroy it.

After arranging the plan, I paused for more than ten minutes to let everyone prepare. The sneak attack was launched on time at nine o'clock in the evening. The first to fire was the long-range cannon on the floating turret of the contract city. Originally, Buddhism only calculated the distance to build the city, so in general, our cannon can't hit the model city anyway. However, the long-range cannon itself is an ultra-long-range attack weapon, and it can increase the range by about 30% in the case of strong charges. As a result, we hit all the cannonballs into the model city. Because at the beginning of the first wave of shelling, the Buddhists thought that our cannons did not have enough range, so they didn't expect to intercept the shells, so the first wave of shells almost all hits. In the strong charge mode, it is an ultra-long-range shelling, and the hit rate is impossible to talk about. Fortunately, our target is a city. Even if it is an ultra-long-range shelling, it is not so easy to go outside the city, so After the group, almost all the shells fell in the city.

Because in order to increase the effect of the bombardment, we installed explosive incendiary bombs in the first wave of shells, so the houses made of wooden shelves of Buddhism were almost ignited after the first round bombardment began. A large area, and then Buddhism began to get busy. Some people flew up into the sky and began to use divine force to resist subsequent shells, while others were fighting fires everywhere in the city. At this time, several unremarkable corners in the city changed at the same time.

On the ground somewhere in the model city of Buddhism, a wooden board suddenly lifted up a little bit. A tentacle with a crystal ball on the front end stretched out from the edge of the plank. When the green crystal ball got out of the ground, it turned and swept all around, and then a large area of ​​ground suddenly rose up. Under those wooden ground, rattans were supporting each other. Against those floors.

"Move fast." I turned over and picked out a big hole in the ground, followed by a large group of players, NPCs and mechanical angels. When we all got out, the rose vine immediately pulled the ground back to the ground and reassembled it into a flat ground. As long as we didn't open it, we couldn't find that the bottom was hollowed out.

As soon as we came out, we started to separate and walk through the houses on the street. The buildings here are imitated in the style of the contract city, so we all know the terrain. In addition, because the houses are made of wood, our people can break through the walls between the houses and the houses, which avoids the chance of being discovered by Buddhists when walking on the street.

I took a few players and quickly touched under a relatively high building. This place is a camouflage fort in the contract city. As long as the pseudo fort in this model city is destroyed, even Buddhism’s spell The fort that took effect on us will also be safely preserved.

A player with me quickly took out a fist sized crystal block from his body, then tied a bunch of cylindrical objects to the crystal, set the time and stuffed it into the pseudo-turret Below the foundation. This thing is a remote-controlled bomb with a timing function. If it does not receive a remote control signal, it will automatically detonate at the set time. Because everything here is a layer of wood and a layer of mud, we also specially added some combustion aids, so that once a big fire starts, it is not so easy for Buddhism to control the fire.

"Who?" We were about to evacuate after loading the bomb, and suddenly we heard a loud roar.

"You go first, I'll take care of this." Let the others run first, and together with Zizhu Fairy and Sun Wukong, we rushed to the guy who found us.
