Chapter 1082: Knock them all down!
After defeating the winners of 41 districts, O'Hearn defended his title as the Mighty King.
The most difficult one to deal with is not the Ten-Eyed Void Fish, but a Ratman.
The ratman was short and extremely agile. It ran around on O'Hearn, magnifying the gargoyle's lack of agility. In the end, O'Hearn ran the gargoyle until he was exhausted and could not move, then he caught it and threw it away.
This battle also made O'Hearn deeply understand a truth.
There are always some people in the world that you can't predict. They may be silent at ordinary times, but when they show up, they will exert power beyond your imagination.
Just like a businessman.
Becoming a four-time champion made O'Hearn's reputation soar, and he received a large share of the gambling revenue. No one had ever received so much attention and popularity in "Sky City 6".
Many people have come to ask about the future plans for the Strongest King competition. According to previous conventions, the next competition will be organized and hosted by the previous champion, which is also a respect and benefit to the winner.
O'Hearn discussed the issue with them.
"I hope that the Strongest King competition can be bigger and stronger, and that participants can have fun. In order to keep the competition going for a long time, I decided to take out all my profits and give them to two professionals to organize the next Strongest King competition."
"Among the two people, the first one is the troll Wagga. He is a loyal audience and die-hard supporter of every Strongest Man Contest. He has rich experience and unique understanding of large-scale competitions and confrontations."
"The second one is Shadow Demon Cosi. He is a keen observer and knows exactly what everyone wants to see and what they want to gain from it."
"They are both my important friends and supporters. Without them, I would not have won the championship. So I hope they can further improve and expand this event, making it more participatory and entertaining, and making the whole process more exciting, so that the weaker players have a chance to turn the tables, and the strong players have to go all out. This is the kind of competition that everyone wants to watch."
O'Hearn's speech made the soldiers very excited.
When it comes to betting on winning or losing, what you want is a high odds upset.
But some people are curious: "Four-time champion, aren't you participating?"
“I’m ready to be a spectator.”
O'Hearn laughed and said, "I will officially become a member of the Order. This will give me more time to watch and study the games. Please wait and see."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
The servants all knew that although Zhizi did very little work and seemed to be doing nothing, there was a price to pay: Zhizi would be followed by an inescapable ghost.
It will continue to learn and imitate until it replaces Zhizi and walks outside in Zhizi's appearance. It is called Zhiying.
It is not difficult to judge the order of shadows.
If you ask a person, “How was your day?”
Most normal people would say, "Just as bad as yesterday."
The rank shadows will not express themselves in a venting way, and will not oppose or criticize the star track system. They do not curse, nor do they know how to complain, and they will not curse the star track and the star officials.
If it were Zhiying, he would say, "Everything is normal."
Or maybe.
“Steady and improving.”
Hearing such a reply, there is no doubt that the other party is Zhiying.
There can only be one Zhizi in each block, but in fact, there are more than 40,000 blocks and more than 100,000 soldiers in "Tianlei City Six", but there are only over 30 Zhizi.
Usually, only those who have given up on themselves and are self-inflated will go down this path. Normal people will never synchronize with the block and give up themselves.
But no one thought O'Hearn was crazy.
Many servants felt that perhaps O'Hearn had discovered some secret, which required becoming a member of the Order to discover.
O'Hearn also generously stated publicly: "Everyone's speculation is not wrong. I want to challenge a new direction, and this direction is Zhizi."
"Everyone knows that Zhizi is the Zodiac Star borrowing our brains. I have always thought that although this is a transformation that seems to be crazy, why can't it be a completely new possibility?"
"Through my identity as a rank child, can I gradually influence the entire planet and make it undergo some changes? If we can become a strong brain, we can control this strong body."
"That's what I want. Become a strong warrior and have a wrestling match with 'Tianleicheng Liu'!"
Everyone was amused by its announcement.
If Zhizi could do this, then the void creatures would not be locked on the stars by the star tracks and become trapped beasts.
The four-time champion is too proud.
…
O'Hearn made the decision after careful consideration.
The businessman "Life Repairer" offered two solutions.
The first plan is to develop the black market here, and gradually influence the numerous servants by bringing in rare commodities from outside.
The second option is to strike while the iron is hot and become a rank son, starting from the rank matrix of the essence of the stellar body, and influence "Tianlei City Six" from the source.
The businessman prefers option 1.
But both the troll Wowga and the shadow demon Cosi think the difficulty is very high.
The soldiers were in different areas, so it was difficult for them to work together. If someone leaked the information, it could trigger the alert and investigation of "Tianlei City Six", which was extremely risky.
Furthermore, the values of different ethnic groups vary greatly.
Some just want to survive, some are radical, some are extremely conservative, some are dedicated opponents - opposing just for the sake of opposing, and some even like to be enslaved by the strong here... The world is big, and there are all kinds of creatures.
O'Hearn felt that option 2 had a better chance.
In fact, this is just like participating in the Strongest Man competition yourself.
Initially, no one thought highly of a gargoyle, after all, gargoyles and ratmen were the lowest class of void creatures. Even though O'Hearn was gifted and possessed the [Innate Divine Power] trait, the void contempt chain still existed.
Thoughts and habits developed over billions of years are difficult to change in a short period of time, just like the shadow demon Cosi, who has always been pessimistic about himself as a friend.
But the good thing about the competition is that as long as you keep winning, you can change everyone's opinion.
If your victory can bring benefits to everyone, then you are everyone's hero, and everyone will cheer and be happy for you.
O'Hearn immediately said, "I'll be the commander."
The trolls and shadow demons all advised it to think it over carefully.
O'Hearn insisted: "The biggest reason for Zhizi's collapse and madness is consumption."
"The most important thing in wrestling is to get enough supplies and rest. The work of the Order is extremely exhausting, but there is a lack of supplies. They still use the supplies of ordinary servants. This doesn't matter to Xinggui, because the Order itself is not important. What is important is to use them to cultivate the Order Shadows that incubate the consciousness of the block. It is more like a grindstone for sharpening the blocks."
"Without enough supplies, even the best wrestlers will fall at the first touch. Without a good physique, it is difficult to have a strong mental will. The chariots are fragile, not because they are not strong enough, but because of a lack of supplies."
"As long as you can provide me with World Stone and [Star Candy], I will be able to hold on."
The merchant said, "Don't worry about the supplies. I will bring you a steady supply."
So O'Hearn walked into the high tower in the center of the block, completed the synchronization connection, and became an order.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The Zhizi do not need to participate in any physical labor, and can use and live in any building at will. Compared with the coolies living in the cave, the Zhizi's status in the star track is much higher.
However, O'Hearn did feel a headache about the shadow behind him.
Zhiying always has countless problems.
[O'Hearn, why do you like the Strongest Man Contest? ]
“To win.”
[If you win, you can get those items, so there is a sense of achievement, is this why? ]
“Part of the reason.”
【Are there any other reasons? 】
"interesting."
[Is the fun about winning or excitement? ]
"You talk too much."
[Sorry, I need to continue learning. You are Zhizi, and I need to learn from you. ]
"Shut up, number 33!"
【OK.】
Number 33 shut up.
It’s not because it is obedient. In fact, as a block consciousness, the Order Shadow has never had the concept of obedience.
It was because of the businessman "Life Repairer" who took action.
"I will transform it and make it listen to you." The merchant said, "But from now on, you need to further cultivate it. It is not only your shadow, but also the key to your influence on the entire "Sky Fortress City Six"."
As promised, No. 33 obeys O'Hearn's orders and is more like a follower.
O'Hearn also taught it in great detail, and the gargoyle tried its best to answer its questions and inquiries.
O'Hearn admires the trait of diligence and love of learning.
Although No. 33 is only his shadow life, O'Hearn still hopes it will be a great shadow.
Especially in the aspect of gladiatorial combat, O'Hearn taught everything he knew. Although he didn't know if it would be useful, he believed that fighting and competition should be the basic skills that every life must learn.
One day, No. 33 suddenly said.
[O'Hearn, I fought with No. 78 next door, and I won. It became my shadow and obeyed me.]
O'Hearn was confused: "How did you fight No. 78? Why did you become a shadow?"
[Use your method to challenge it to a duel, a duel for who is the better block consciousness. If it refuses, then it has expressed that it is not as good as me, and the next time we have a command process conflict, it will run my process first. Because I represent a more outstanding order. ]
According to it, the normal state of block consciousness is to slowly expand and influence in all directions, relying on various architectural wonders to radiate and thus expand the actual controlled area.
But No. 33 chose O'Hearn's advanced style of play, and directly challenged the block-conscious Zhiying, relying on mature fighting skills and experience to completely suppress the opponent.
O'Hearn was excited.
"very good!"
"Hit, keep hitting! Knock them all down!"
Under the encouragement and guidance of coach O'Hearn, No. 33 kept going and challenged others. The confrontation of block consciousness was a confrontation of information level understanding and information volume, but No. 33 specialized in pure combat confrontation, so he was far superior to his peers in this field.
In less than a year, No. 33 defeated the consciousness of 21 blocks and occupied half of the entire Zodiac Star. As long as it made any movement, these 21 block orders would respond, thus radiating other blocks around it.
At the same time, the Strongest Man competition was held again. In addition to the wrestling competition, there were also long-distance obstacle course and building competition. The various competitions made the soldiers fall into carnival.
Everything is going well.
However, on a very ordinary day, the entire "Tianlei City Six" suddenly became pitch black.
All the soldiers heard a voice.
[This Zodiac star will immediately enter sleep mode. All servants must enter the underground refuge area and must not leave their respective blocks.]
Then the cold and suffocating deathly air descended from the sky like an overwhelming avalanche.
The dark ages have arrived.
