Hyper-fusion, I have infinite forms.

Chapter 149: Resilience and Pre-War Assembly
Zhou Yan was a little surprised when he saw his left hand transformed into a long and narrow fist sword.

"Interesting." He smiled and looked at Luo Ke, "Since Xiao Ke specifically used the number 'ten', there shouldn't be ten forms, right?"

"No!"

"If it's called Juubi, it should be able to transform into eleven different forms, so that it can catch the enemy by surprise."

Luo Ke grunted like a pig. "So, besides its basic form, it can transform into eleven weapons."

"Okay, okay, Xiao Ke knows the routine." Zhou Yan couldn't help but smile.

Luo Ke continued to smile triumphantly, and then began to teach Zhou Yan the activation gestures corresponding to the other ten forms.

Luo Xuan watched the two of them practice using prosthetic limbs for a long time and suddenly asked, "Luo Ke, the material of this arm looks a bit like a special alloy used for high-level divine machines."

Luo Ke glanced at her and put her hands on her hips: "What do you mean by like? This is made of a special alloy. Otherwise, how could it achieve this kind of deformation effect?"

Luo Xuan's eyes widened: "The entire prosthesis is made of this, where did you get the money to buy the alloy!? Oh, and these special circuits, they are all very expensive."

Luo Ke's face froze, and then she quietly turned away her eyes.

Luo Xuan took two steps forward, staring at her with his sharp eyes: "Xiao Ke, speak!"

Luo Ke shook her head guiltily and said, "I, I don't know either."

Zhou Yan took her hand and pulled Luo Xuan back: "It's okay, Xiaoxuan, the Shenji team said that they will ask the pavilion to reimburse the cost of these materials and circuits, and it will probably be charged to me."

Luo Xuan couldn't help but blush when Zhou Yan pulled her hand.

However, she was smart and after hearing Zhou Yan's words, she quickly understood what he meant.

If it were an ordinary person, it would certainly be impossible for Lihuo Pavilion or even Suzaku Palace to pay so much.

But geniuses are different, especially those with extraordinary mental abilities like Zhou Yan.

Even if this magical prosthetic limb is worth millions or even tens of millions, it will probably only be considered by the big guys above as a necessary investment cost for a genius.

After all, even the unique top-level magic machine could be given to Zhou Yan, so a small prosthetic limb was nothing in comparison.

Seeing that her sister no longer pursued the matter, Luo Ke, who had escaped the disaster, looked at Zhou Yan with admiration.

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows at her and they both smiled secretly.

Luo Xuan's focus was still on why Zhou Yan hadn't let go of her hand, and she didn't notice the little glances between the two.

After that, nothing happened that night.

Early the next day.

Zhou Yan opened his eyes and sat up from the bed, thinking silently as he recalled the feedback he got from entering the "communication" world last night.

After defeating the Skinner village a few days ago, he entered the "communication" that night and wrote down his question "Can this world have the means to make up for the shortcomings" on a note.

After that, I would take time to take a look at it every day.

Finally saw the feedback last night.

I don’t know which of the big guys gave him the reply, but the content written on it is as follows:

{If you want to regenerate a broken limb, there are several ways:
One is to clone and cultivate missing limbs for transplantation and neural connection. This technology can be easily achieved by some cutting-edge companies in areas dominated by giant corporate alliances.

The second is to directly promote regrowth through some strange elixirs. It is said that some rare magical medicines of the Tianyuan Empire have corresponding effects, but they are all guarded by certain forces as important treasures.

The third is to ask the Supreme Pope of the Evangelical Kingdom to preside over the blessing ceremony and perform miracles. However, this is not possible unless one is a devout believer and has made top contributions to the Holy See.

The fourth is to cultivate oneself to the limit of the "Transcendent" level, break through the life level, and realize the automatic healing of the body.

Among them, the first method is only recommended for ordinary people. Although the limbs regained in this way are no different from those of ordinary people, they will permanently lack star positions and cannot be driven by spiritual will. They are not a good choice for the strong who aim to transcend limits.

As for the other three methods, they depend on luck and chance. Of course, if you are willing to give up your human identity and adopt some evil ways, there are more ways and means, but none of them are good strategies, so I won't elaborate on them.}
To put it simply, the reply to his message can be summed up in two words - it is possible, but he can't do it now.

But at least I have an idea and a goal to work towards in the future.

Zhou Yan put away his thoughts, got up and went out.

At a glance, I saw Luo Xuan, who was practicing with her eyes closed in front of the screen in the living room.

When the girl heard the door open, she opened her eyes and looked at Zhou Yan. As they looked at each other, she turned her eyes away in embarrassment.

Ever since things got a little unclear between her and Zhou Yan recently, she would unconsciously become a little panicked whenever she was alone with him.

"Good morning, Xiaoxuan." Zhou Yan didn't take it seriously and greeted with a smile, "Are you visualizing the Fire Separation Diagram?"

Luo Xuan nodded gently: "Well, I, my mental strength is not as good as yours, and I can't even fully exert the combat power of the Shen Ji. To be honest, I'm afraid that when I wear the Shen Ji costume, my actual combat power is not as good as yours."

"Obviously, before this, you were still behind me." Luo Xuan lowered his eyes slightly.

Although his voice was cold and calm, and his tone was not very depressed, it still clearly conveyed the frustration of being inexplicably surpassed by Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan comforted Luo Xuan softly:

"My divine machine has defects. Even if I try my best to enter the second gear stage, I can only maintain it for a very short time. Under normal first gear, I can't compare with Xiaoxuan who can enter the second gear."

"What's more, the divine machine is an external force. Without the divine machine, I still can't beat Xiaoxuan."

As he said that, he walked forward and gently held Luo Xuan's hand: "Don't worry, I will not leave my master. Since Xiaoxuan has become my instructor, she must continue to teach me swordsmanship."

Luo Xuan glanced at him calmly, turned her head away unnaturally, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised. A click sounded.

Luo Xuan hurriedly pulled her hand out.

The two turned around and saw Luo Ke walking out yawning.

"Good morning, sister, Zhou Yan."

She greeted the two of them in a daze and walked towards the bathroom on her own.

"Why does Xiao Ke get up so early?" Zhou Yan was a little curious.

Luo Xuan said softly: "She has been taking to the Shenji Group like a duck in water these days. Maybe she is going there today to learn about Shenji from Group Leader Cheng."

It turned out to be the case.

Zhou Yan nodded: "What about us? Will we continue to patrol the eastern part of the city today?"

Luo Xuan shook her head: "No, Sister Chu Wan sent us a message this morning, asking us to be in the conference room before nine o'clock today."

There was some excitement in her eyes:
"The thirty True Realm experts deployed from Suzaku Palace for support have arrived."

arrive?

Zhou Yan's eyes flashed.

Apparently, this meant that he could finally see the "chaos rift" in this main world.

Nine o'clock, in the large conference room on the top floor of Lihuo Pavilion.

Sitting in the chairman's seat at this moment was an old man Zhou Yan was familiar with - Zhang Daosheng.

Below him sat Cong Shiyun, the head of the Lihuo Pavilion in Yicheng. Further down, there was a circle of people sitting around the table. Even the youngest among them looked to be at least thirty-five or thirty-six years old.

Everyone sat upright with a solemn look.

Except for Chu Wan, she looked particularly young among this group of people, at around 27 or 28 years old.

In such an occasion, Zhou Yan and Luo Xuan, who were not qualified to sit at the table and were sitting in the corner of the conference room, looked a little conspicuous.

But those present were at least strong people at the True Realm level, and they were obviously not interested in the two juniors. They all looked at Zhang Daosheng, the chief seat, seriously.

Zhang Daosheng had a serious expression and spoke in a steady tone: "I won't say any more nonsense. I believe you all already knew the situation when you received the transfer order."

"Today is August 27th. Everyone should take a good rest, adjust your state, and maintain your divine machine. We will set out directly at noon tomorrow. Our goal is to completely put an end to the evil left over from three years ago."

"Destroy the Fire Worship Society's headquarters and clear the special rift where they are hiding."

He glanced around the conference table and said in a deep voice, "Three years ago, there were ten colleagues in the real realm who participated in the same mission, and they are all here now.

"You should also know how heavy the losses were in that operation. Nearly forty people above the Miao level with bright futures died tragically."

"This is a shame for Suzaku Palace. Now we can finally redeem ourselves. We must succeed this time."

Finally, he extended his hand to signal Cong Shiyun, who was standing below him: "That's all I have to say. The specific battle plan will be arranged by Pavilion Master Cong. He was the leader back then, so he has experience to refer to."

Cong Shiyun took over the conversation.

He took out the remote control and pressed it, and an image was projected onto the wall screen in front of everyone.

"Dear colleagues, I am Cong Shiyun. First of all, I want to reflect on myself. I failed to live up to the instructions from above. Not only did I fail to complete the mission, but I also killed many of my brothers."

He first gave a bitter smile, then quickly said, "The rift that hid the Fire Worship Society back then was not eliminated. Although we later forcibly sealed the rift with the support of our superiors and prevented it from becoming a desperate situation, due to the unknown reasons for the internal mutation, the rift was also not completely sealed."

"For the past three years, monsters have been appearing around the rift from time to time, causing great trouble to the Wing City area."

"In the process of clearing monsters in the past few years, we have accumulated some information about monsters. Although I believe that all of my colleagues have already checked it before coming here, I will still share it with you to be on the safe side."

"The most common monster is the 'Flayer'. Under normal circumstances, it is roughly at the level of the mortal realm, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Sheep-horned monsters are at the level of regular mortals. The mutants are huge, agile, and as powerful as masters. They are nothing to be afraid of."

"Bone Girl."

"Cyclops."

After introducing the situations of many monsters, Cong Shiyun took a deep breath and said, "It can be seen that if there were only ordinary monsters like this, the threat level of this rift would not require so many real realms to be dispatched."

"But." His voice became more serious.

"Three years ago, just when we were about to complete the extermination and capture the mysterious headquarters of the Chonghuo Society, they used some unknown method to completely change the environment of the entire rift."

"The sky darkened, the ground cracked, and magma erupted."

"Then, a terrifying monster appeared that was only seen in high-risk rifts in previous records."

"The Balrog!"

It was not until Cong Shiyun said the word "Flame Demon" that all the people who were originally careless sat up straight.

All serious.
