I am the king of fighting!

Chapter 255 Dilemma and the Future

"No, it still doesn't work."

Lin Xi was breathing heavily, his bulging muscles were rising and falling, and the sweat evaporated by the high temperature on his body surface turned into thick mist covering his head.

He tried to use magnetism to exert all-round pressure on the body, simulating a gravity chamber, in order to accelerate the strengthening of the body.

As for the effect, there is a little, but not much. The magnetism that has become his physical strength, nerve signals, and hormones is essentially his own strength. In the process of competing with each other, the magnetism exerted by the subjective consciousness will be offset by the magnetism emitted by the body's instinct.

Although it accelerates the effect of physical energy consumption before exercise, the acceleration is not much. When the magnetic force that can be controlled by the subjective consciousness is almost consumed, there is still a lot of magnetic force left that the body can use instinctively. That is part of the magnetic force used to ensure that the body will not completely lose consciousness and self-protection ability due to the disappearance of the magnetic force.

If the consumption continues, the magnetic field will reduce the external pressure and return to the human body. Without the friction and collision between the internal magnetic field and the earth's magnetic field, the magnetic force will naturally no longer exist. The body will first shut down its functions step by step, and finally shut down the sub-brain to save energy, preserve the remaining magnetic force, and fall into a dormant state.

In other words, this accelerated method of cultivation has low returns, and once a dangerous warning line is crossed, a person will fall into a coma on the spot. If one is not careful, the magnetic field in the body may shrink and return to a state where it cannot be released outside the body. The person will remain dormant until the magnetic field naturally grows to a level where it can be released outside the body.

"I can't use my own magnetic field, and my magnetic force is not fully consumed. I can only grow naturally by following the constant pressure of the Earth's magnetic field on my body..."

Lin Xi had a headache. His natural growth rate was actually not slow. After all, in terms of quantity, he probably would not have the chance to catch up with the size of the earth's magnetic field in his lifetime. His oppressed body would certainly continue to grow, but the problem was that this growth rate did not match the expansion rate of the magnetic field.

After the magnetic field merged with his soul and spirit, it expanded very quickly. As long as he continued to produce various emotions, he would be able to gain benefits from the earth's magnetic field and continue to expand.

When the magnetic field expands to the limit that the physical body can withstand, it will cross the medium of the body and spirit and collide violently with the earth's magnetic field.

It is foreseeable that after the collision, his magnetic field will definitely not win. If it wins, the earth will be in big trouble. The damaged magnetic field will regress, and then continue to grow, collide, and regress, repeating this extremely torturous process. The physical and mental pain that will be produced is terrible to think about, but this is the path he is destined to take.

The magnetic force released during the collision will spread uncontrollably around, forming an extremely powerful explosion...

When one day he can't bear it mentally and explodes with the earth, he will transform into Big Ivan, create unimaginable power, leave a huge scar on the earth, and completely disappear from the world.

Since he had already integrated his spirit and soul into the magnetic force, he didn't even have the chance to become the reincarnation of the Great Snake clan and would be turned into ashes on the spot.

From this perspective, Lin Xi's added repair points only delayed the time of his own explosion indefinitely and continued to increase the power of his explosion, without obtaining a real solution.

In other words, the Earth Consciousness had never encountered such a suicidal situation, and could not deduce a perfect solution. After all, no matter how strong the Earth Consciousness was, it was just a mechanical collective consciousness, and it was impossible for it to know how to make a carbon-based creature capable of destroying itself...

As for why he felt that he would be able to sink the Japanese island in a few years and not other islands, it was because the maximum upper limit of the magnetic force generated by the friction between his body's magnetic field and the Earth's magnetic field was enough to destroy the Earth. The Japanese island was located at the junction of plates and earthquakes occurred frequently. Its magnetic field was very unstable. If he struck without thinking of the consequences, he would have a chance to sink the Japanese island even now. As for himself, of course he would be sacrificed to the heavens on the spot.

After a few years when he becomes a walking big Ivan, he will dare to fight even if he encounters a big snake. If you can't do it, just hit me and I will explode and die together.

To be optimistic, as long as Lin Xi can hold on, as a special human being with a complete magnetic field, it will not be a problem for him to live for another one or two hundred years. He may have a chance to blow the earth in half during his lifetime.

"I don't know whether I should be happy or sad..."

In half a year, he hadn't figured out any way to significantly improve the effects of physical training. Most of them were just a drop in the bucket and could only delay the time for the magnetic field to reach its limit by a few days to a few weeks.

"Another day of failure."

Lin Xi was thinking about what to do to relax in the afternoon, when she suddenly felt a familiar breath approaching the martial arts hall and arriving at the door ahead of time.

"Long time no see." Sagat, wearing a brown shirt and orange shorts, lowered his head and got out of the taxi which was too narrow for him. The taxi was obviously shaking upwards, and a lot of bandages could be seen under his shirt. The smell of blood on his body had not yet dissipated.

Lin Xi walked up to him and hugged him. They were old friends. "Long time no see."

Sagat pulled out a bag of vacuum-packed dried meat from the back seat. He grinned and said, "This is for you. It's a specialty of my hometown, crocodile dried meat."

"Uh..." Lin Xi took the bag with a slightly strange expression. To be honest, there was a time when he really ate a lot of crocodile meat, so he could accept this weird meat jerky, but...

He shook off the unpleasant memories of eating crocodile meat every day, hugged Sagat, who was almost as tall as him, and said happily: "You are back to Thailand?"

"Yes." Shagat nodded, followed him into the martial arts hall, and explained: "I went back to Thailand half a year ago when something happened, and helped the royal family participate in the war to restore the country. After a while of talking, my charges have been dropped."

"It's really not easy." Lin Xi was a little emotional. She was affected to such an extent by the changed plot. After several years of wandering, she was finally able to return to her hometown. "What are your plans for the future?"

"Take a break for a few years." Sagat looked relaxed. He was no longer some crazy cultivator. His feud with Long had ended long ago. His hatred and resentment had been worn away by the long life on the run. All that was left was a yearning for a peaceful life. It was enough for him to be able to return to his hometown and live a stable life.

The saying "the tiger's claws have been worn down" is the most accurate way to describe him.

Come to think of it, Atton seemed to have made a similar comment in the game.

Lin Xi suddenly remembered the young man who was clamoring to catch up with him, and couldn't help asking: "Aton, do you still remember Aton?" Sagat stood still, his expression became much heavier, and he said softly: "Aton is the best disciple in my life, how could I not remember him."

He took out a blood-soaked photo from his backpack. In it was a photo of Atton under a clear sky, with his thumb raised and two rows of teeth showing while smiling at the camera. He looked very high-spirited and his hairstyle was still the same, but one of his arms was broken and his left leg was replaced by a steel prosthesis.

On the back of the photo were written in sloppy Chinese characters: "Sorry Lin Xi, it seems I have no chance to catch up with you."

"He has surpassed me." Sagat said calmly, handing over the photo, "This is his last wish. He hopes that I can give the photo to you."

"Sorry." Lin Xi took the photo. It seemed very light, yet very heavy. Something in the photo penetrated into his heart.

Sagat shook his head and said nothing more. In the six months of life at the front line, separations of life and death were all very common. People who were not strong enough had no chance of surviving those monsters.

Each of those monsters possessed even greater strength and a variety of moves than he had six months ago. No matter whether they were encountered in the wild or rushed into the city individually, the army composed of ordinary humans had no chance of causing any harm. Even the results of drones, missiles, or cluster bombings were very unsatisfactory. In the end, the machines were not completely stupid and would not gather together to be bombarded by firearms. After fighting for a long time, they could only use the blood and lives of the fighters to reduce their numbers.

The two of them fell into a long silence because of Atun's matter. They came to the tea room and sat down. After drinking two cups of hot tea, Sagat said, "Also, you have to be careful. Many people are eyeing the King of Fighters invitation in your hand. I heard that at least thirty or so good fighters who retired from the battlefield want to challenge you and snatch the invitation."

Lin Xi didn't care. There was no reason for someone who could beat him to rush for the invitation. Also, anyone who was tempted by the small reward in the King of Fighters tournament was most likely not someone who could beat him.

However, there is an interesting reward for this King of Fighters Tournament: [Qin's Secret Book]

I just don't know if the two little brats Qin Chonglei and Qin Chongxiu will be lured out. Those two little brats should be only eleven years old this year, but they are possessed by two thousand-year-old ghosts Qin Konglong and Qin Hailong, so their strength is quite good. It's a pity that the power of the two old ghosts is divided into three parts. Only by collecting the three volumes of Qin's secret book can they exert their full strength. Otherwise, they will gradually weaken and lose control of their offspring.

In fact, he had no idea why Qin Wanglong divided the secret book into three volumes, and why Qin Konglong and Qin Hailong let their powers be lost along with the Qin's secret book... In short, by burning the three volumes of the secret book in the game, Giss directly harmed Qin Konglong and Qin Hailong. Later on, he was completely unable to control his two offspring and completely disappeared in the game plot.

However, at this time period, the two old ghosts have joined forces, and their power is even stronger than that of Krauser. The original Gith is definitely no match for them. As for the current version of Gith, it is a bit hard to say.

If he still had spiritual power, Lin Xi would definitely snatch Qin's secret books and collect them all, but now what's the point of him practicing qigong and spiritual cultivation? He has no interest in it at all.

He chatted with Sagat for a while, and the two went out for a meal together before parting again.

Sagat came to Hong Kong Island not just to deliver relics, but also to purchase supplies and collect donations. Even though Thailand was restored with the help of the UN peacekeeping forces and the sacrifices of countless righteous and patriotic people, the original country had become a wasteland.

Displaced people, unable to maintain their livelihoods, collapsed economic pillars. It’s funny to say that the sex trade is the way the lower classes in many Southeast Asian countries can earn the most money and materials.

As a fighter, for the sake of his country and his hometown, he can only contribute his reputation by traveling around, hoping to get some donations and purchase supplies to bring back.

Perhaps because of Master Sagat and his disciple, or perhaps because of the little conscience left in his heart, Lin Xi paid a little attention to the affairs in Thailand. While spending money to donate a large amount of supplies through the official channels of Hong Kong Island, he was shocked to find that Prasad, who once hated the existence of fighters, had become the Prime Minister of Thailand, which had just restored its country. He also promoted the compensation plan for the sacrificed fighters and initiated a motion for the national fighting practice.

Life is really quite wonderful. Watching the video, the middle-aged man who looked a dozen years older and had slightly gray hair bowed to express his gratitude to the families of the fallen fighters, and talked sincerely about Basset, who said that the future development of the country cannot be achieved without the contributions of the fighters. He couldn't help but feel that it was a bit magical.

In short, this little episode did not affect Lin Xi's life. He had been secretly paying attention to Han Zhuli's intelligence. That woman who did whatever she wanted seemed to have gotten the Feng Shui engine from somewhere. Now she went to Australia to show off, won the championship in a fighting competition, and was also given the title of the coolest female fighter. She is quite famous in Australia.

Time passed by little by little, and he still hadn't made any breakthrough in his cultivation. He was just trying his best to delay the day of the explosion.

It wasn't until one month before he went to the United States to participate in the King of Boxing tournament that an old friend came to visit him.
-
United States, South Town, Extreme Martial Arts School.

"hateful!"

The sturdy man named Sakazaki Ryo punched the wooden stake. With a loud bang, the stake exploded from the inside out, and wooden spikes flew all over the sky. He stared at the King of Fighters invitation letter in front of him with anger on his face. The breath and anger in his body accumulated like a volcano, ready to erupt in a moment.

The martial arts school, which was on the verge of bankruptcy due to his father's poor management, has gradually prospered thanks to his ten years of unremitting efforts. However, ever since the Howard Consortium came to power and Gus became a member of Congress, the business of the Extreme Flow Martial Arts School has become increasingly difficult, to the point that all the students have now voluntarily left under pressure.

After struggling to maintain their business for more than half a year, the Howard Consortium directly attacked the Garcia Group in business, causing the largest financial backer to be overwhelmed. His friend and future brother-in-law, Robert Garcia, had no choice but to return to his hometown in Europe to deal with the precarious family business.

His father's whereabouts were uncertain and he couldn't be trusted at all. He sent his sister and girlfriend on a trip, hoping not to put pressure on his family, but he didn't expect...

Even on the brink of bankruptcy, the Howard Consortium still refused to let him go, nor did they want to let go of Extreme Flow, and sent him an invitation that was called business cooperation but was actually a threat.

Only after he won the King of Fighters title would Keith Howard be willing to show mercy and let Extreme Flow go...

"Gis!!!"

Sakazaki Ryo became more and more angry the more he thought about it, so he punched out directly. A roar seemed to explode out of thin air, and the air vibrated repeatedly. The force that was enough to completely destroy the residential area canceled each other out under his exquisite control, leaving only a gust of wind lingering in the empty martial arts hall.
