Star Forge Titan

……

"Ah."

The brief silence was interrupted by the boy's chuckle.

"Unexpected meeting, unexpected performance."

"Or is that also a disguise?"

"..."

"Let's counter it as it happens."

As he walked out of the contestant passage, Alvin saw his senior brother Brad leaning against the wall waiting for him.

"Is it going well?" Brad asked with a smile, but he actually already knew the answer.

"It went smoothly. This opponent is quite interesting. The idea of ​​combining boxing with equipment is good. Although I am not very strong, at least his ideas are worth learning from." Alvin nodded, his mentality not affected by the accident just now.

"Isn't it very powerful..." Brad's eyes twitched.

There are many branches of Lan Dou Wanliu, so it is not surprising that there are aristocratic practitioners. They can even rely on their own advantages in financial resources and power to learn boxing faster and better.

The Fist Fighters would never take this lightly, but they also had no suitable way to deal with it.

After all, boxing is not the private property of a certain person or a certain group of people, but the last force used by the people of the desert to resist.

If even the fighters of the Fist of Freedom regard their boxing skills as their own private property, then what is the essential difference between them and the nobles and wizard kings who are high above them?

Back to the original topic, the young nobleman named Alonso was born into a military aristocratic family. He received strict military training since childhood and always completed his promotion according to extremely high standards on the extraordinary road.

Later, he learned a special boxing style called Lan Dou Gang Feng Liu, which was a boxing style that was good at creating strong winds to disrupt the opponent's movements. During this learning process, Alfonso showed excellent talent and was very hardworking.

As a result, Alfonso was able to stand out among a group of young boxers.

Later, Lan Dou Gang Fengliu's ability to create strong winds was combined with his magic armor and cloak to create unexpected uses.

Lancers who can fly into the air, knights who can charge without a mount, either of them means being difficult and powerful, let alone possessing both of these characteristics at the same time.

Therefore, the boxer Alfonso, the 'Featherless Knight', is definitely not a weakling.

Then, his junior fellow apprentice quickly defeated the opponent in just a few rounds. After that, he also said about this battle...the opponent was not very strong.

Judging from his expression, the above comment seems to be a relatively polite one. If he were more blunt, he might have said something bluntly pointed like "You're so weak.JPG."

Ignoring the subtle expression on his senior brother's face, Alvin started talking about another topic.

"By the way, Senior Brother, do you know what Menis looks like?"

"Who? Wait, are you talking about the second wizard king, Menis?" Brad was stunned for a moment before he realized who his junior brother was talking about.

"Well, so you know?" Ivan nodded and continued to ask:

"...The Second Wizard King has lived in seclusion since the completion of the Glazed Crown fifty years ago. Even when he accepts audiences with his subjects, he usually wears a veil. Therefore, there are very few people who have seen his true appearance now, especially those who are still alive." Brad said this slowly.

"Some of our allies also sneaked into the Shaye Palace to try to gather information, but none of them returned alive. The best-case scenario was that they were executed..."

"The best, situation..." Alvin was stunned.

Why would the best-case scenario be execution?

As soon as this question arose in his mind, he realized the extremely cruel answer.

In some unspeakable situations, living is not necessarily easier than dying, especially in this magical world.

"It is said that the Second Wizard King has the largest private botanical garden in the desert, where the plants grow exceptionally lush. What do you think those damn trees use as fertilizer to make the plants so...healthy..." Brad's voice became extremely low, and the creaking sound of his teeth could be faintly heard.

"I understand." Alvin no longer continued this depressing topic.

"Why do you ask this suddenly?" Brad asked belatedly:

"Nothing, just a little curious." Alvin shook his head and had no intention of going further.

After all, no matter whether things are as bizarre as you guessed, what to do next has already been decided.

If you have time to think about random things, you might as well practice more boxing.

As for the only secret of the Lan Dou Holy Fist, he now only felt that it contained almost infinite possibilities. This was an extraordinary fighting skill that had not yet been developed to the most perfect level but had huge potential.

Moreover, regarding another question that he had thought of before, Alvin was also inspired by the battle just now and found a possible feasible answer.

Since boxing can be used to assist the use of other magical equipment, then conversely, can magical equipment or other skills also be used to assist boxing?

This immediately reminded Ivan of another extraordinary combat technique he had previously shelved: the ancient technique known as 'Elemental Shell'. Perhaps, through a special method, he could use it to further unleash the power of his boxing formation.

As we all know, the most basic way to release boxing is to coordinate the body movement configuration with breathing methods, so as to mobilize the "qi" in the boxer's body to flow in a special way, and then affect himself or other media, and finally release the power of the boxing configuration that is unique to the boxer's own style.

However, the number of human limbs is limited; an average person wouldn't simply grow a third or fourth arm. Therefore, even when using simplified configuration moves at the level of "Slaying with Ease," there's a limit to the amount of boxing configuration power that can be unleashed at any one time.

For example, in the previous match, Ivan's first configuration was "Ancient Dragon Rock Scale," which evolved from the core configuration of the Flowing Stone Fist, "Solid Rock." After blocking the enemy's attack with this, he began to use the ultimate configuration of the Storm Fighting Holy Fist - Force String Domination.

At this time, the defensive structure "Ancient Dragon Rock Scale" that previously covered part of the body showed signs of naturally disappearing.

That is the limitation of boxing, and also the limitation of the human body. It is like when there is already a bus running on the bus lane, you cannot let a dump truck squeeze in and run together, unless the road itself is an elevated road with multiple levels of passages.

In fact, the tissues inside the human body that can be used to conduct large amounts of magic power are also limited, just like the width of a road. This is also one of the factors that restrict the power of the boxing configuration.

However, if there were a way to create additional limbs, while the boxer's hands were completing one set of boxing movements, the additional limbs could be used to complete another set of boxing movements. Moreover, the additional limbs could also accommodate the flow of magic power in a specific way.

In this way, can a boxer...

Using two different punches at the same time!?!

Chapter 106: Is this it?

New thoughts have emerged: how can we stand still?

Next, it’s the fun (ish) practice part.

"Record, the eighth experiment failed. There is a possibility of a conflict between the fist technique and the magical structure of the elemental shell itself."

Looking at the rock prosthetic limb that was blown into pieces due to the conflict of magic, Alvin slapped his forehead helplessly, but there was no sign of discouragement on his face.

It's easy to think about, but difficult to put into practice. He was mentally prepared for this long before he started.

Anyway, I still have some free time before the next round of competition starts to think about this new idea.

However, in the eyes of his senior brother, 'Wrist Blade' Brad.

What my junior brother has been doing recently is really confusing. Not to mention a human brain, I'm afraid even a dog's brain can't understand it at all.

Using strange foreign techniques, most things that the desert bumpkins in the silent desert have never seen are "foreign things", and the most ordinary stones are made into strange prosthetic limbs that can imitate the movements of arms.

Then, he used the stone arm to make a fist-like posture. Finally, he even tried to infuse it with "qi", which is what the strangers call magic power, hoping to generate the power of the fist-like posture.

Although he didn't know what others thought, Brad thought this was really a fantasy.

"Junior brother, I think that although boxing is free, wanting Stone Arm to use it is a bit, uh, too free, isn't it?"

Brad looked hesitant, and after carefully considering his tone, he tried to persuade cautiously.

As a senior brother, he was very supportive of the young man's first innovation in boxing, so he did not want to undermine his junior brother's self-confidence.

After all, the junior brother is an unprecedented genius. Even a fool can see that with his terrifying ability to learn new boxing techniques at a glance, be better than others after just one try, and make improvements as soon as he thinks about them (improvements rather than changes), he will definitely be the kind of master who can push boxing techniques to a higher level in the future.

So, how should I put it? We should love and care for young people, be understanding and patient, avoid harsh criticism, and instead reason with them and present the facts. And then...

Before Brad could finish preparing himself mentally, he saw his junior fellow apprentice operating the newly created stone arm and smashing it hard on the ground!

Boom!

A dull drum-like sound stirred up a cloud of dust.

However, the expected transferred and dispersed force remained unchanged. In other words, this was just the prosthetic limb made by Waiwen using the "Elemental Shell" fighting skill to hit the ground, rather than the ideal state in which the prosthetic limb hit the ground while exerting the power of boxing.

"Strange." Alvin rubbed his black hair which was becoming more and more exaggerated in length, feeling very puzzled.

He had clearly avoided the possible conflicting magical flows, but why couldn't he use the 'elemental shell' to unleash the power of his punches?

The only reward was probably that the prosthetic limb made from the elemental shell itself didn't break...

click!

A crisp sound echoed, and a vein popped on Ivan's forehead. He saw a distinct crack running through the entire arm of the rock prosthetic arm, crafted with the power of the 'elemental shell'.

He extended his finger and gave it a slight poke. Crack! The rock prosthetic limb was torn into several pieces by the turbulent flow erupting from within the magical conflict, shattering to the point where it could no longer be broken.

The flying fragments hit Ivan's eyelids. Although this did not cause any harm to the black-haired boy because of his idea of ​​actively stacking armor in his ability system, he still felt that he was hurt, and his self-esteem was hurt!

Why is it so difficult to start a new life?!

I still don’t believe it!

Rolling up his sleeves, oh, the traditional desert ethnic vest doesn't have this thing. Anyway, Alvin once again called upon the power of the elemental shell.

This time, he had a new idea. If a prosthetic limb made solely of elemental shells wasn't strong enough to withstand the infusion of magical energy from a complex structure, then he could increase the complexity of the structure itself, creating a sufficiently large system with a stronger carrying capacity.

As for how to increase the complexity of prosthetic limbs, isn't there a good model right here? Simply mimic the human body!

All kinds of thoughts, ideas, and ideas echoed and collided with each other in Ivan's mind like exploding fireworks, making the black-haired boy's expression become extremely excited, and flames of confidence rose in his dark golden eyes transformed by God's power.

The Elemental Shell was originally a special supernatural combat technique that manipulated a specific element to create a bionic body. Unlike other supernatural combat techniques with systematic skills, all the techniques included in this unique combat technique were developed for the purpose of creating a bionic body.

It is precisely because of this particularity that Alvin put it aside for a long time.

But after really studying it in depth, he found that he could rely on [Reshaping the World] to use this combat skill better than ordinary transcendents.

The reason is very simple. If others want to learn this fighting skill, they need to spend a long time to find the elemental power that they are friendly to, and then through persistent practice, they need to perfect the control skills of that element, and finally they can truly begin the process of shaping the bionic body.

But the descendants of those who shaped the stars are free to reshape the world according to their will.

However, the descendants of Titans who mastered the core talent [Reshaping the World] are different. They can naturally control and reshape almost all substances in the material world, including various elemental forces and even some things that are close to concepts.

Perhaps the only thing that could hinder Alvin is his own ideas, the precise control needed to complete the reshaping, and the rigid requirements such as the massive amount of magic power consumed in reshaping different substances.

In this regard, his talent is also top-notch, and he knows it by nature, just like eating and drinking water.

Unfortunately, the total amount of magic power is not a basic attribute that is easy to improve. It often requires persistent long-term training and continuous breakthroughs of one's own bottlenecks. The most critical thing is to improve one's extraordinary status as a living individual, or to use the mystical term often used by ancient races such as elves, to raise one's spiritual level.

In short, Alvin can now use this extraordinary fighting skill, and he can use it very well, but his current level is limited by rigid conditions, and it is still in the promising stage in the future.

With an excited look on his face, Alvin once again manipulated the rocks, soil and sand that were everywhere, carefully shaping an unprecedentedly detailed elemental prosthesis.

The black-haired boy pinched the solid stone directly with his hands and used the force string control technique to evenly apply the force, so that the density of the rock was further compressed in order to create a more solid rock frame as a basic support.

The image of the frame perfectly reproduces the appearance of various bones in a human arm and can also be regarded as a rock skeleton.

With this rock skeleton as its foundation, thick soil mixed with water formed a thick, viscous slurry that covered it. Then, the scorching white light from Ivan's palm baked the slurry, causing the outer layer to harden and solidify, while the interior retained a certain amount of moisture and plasticity, transforming it into a clod of earth with the toughness of muscle.

Finally, it was covered with a layer of extremely fine sand.

Grains of sand combine together to form sheets that look like skin without any visible gaps.

"This time... huhuhuhu... finally... huhu... it will work!"

Such high-precision work consumes a lot of magic power and energy, even for Alvin.

At this moment, his face was a little pale, but his eyes were exceptionally bright, and his whole body showed a strange sense of contradiction.

"Junior brother, if things aren't going well, would you like to learn some boxing from me to relax? I can teach you the secret technique of the Lan Dou Sand Falcon Fist, which is the Fierce Wind Wrist Blade that I am best at." As if sensing that his junior brother's condition was not normal, Brad tried to divert his attention in a somewhat clumsy way.

"The ultimate skill of the Sand Falcon Fist, the Fierce Wind Wrist Blade?" Ivan tilted his head and glanced at his senior brother.

"I learned it a long time ago."

As he spoke, the black-haired boy raised a finger, and the power of the boxing configuration and the breathing method were activated at the same time.

call--

With the finger as the center, a large amount of wind began to gather until it formed a high-speed rotating ring-shaped hollow pure white cyclone.

"Here, this is the result of my modifications. Although its power is lower than that of the Gale Wrist Blade, it can be thrown as a long-range weapon."

"How is it? Interesting, right?" Alvin said casually, but found that Brad was not looking at him.

Subconsciously, he followed his brother's gaze, and he was also stunned.

Beside him, the exquisite elemental prosthetic limb that had just been made was now performing the same movements as Alvin.

And above the raised index finger of the elemental prosthesis, there was also a pure white cyclone wrapped around it!

Chapter 107: Not Complete

"Uh..." Brad looked as if he had been punched.
