Chapter 109 The homesick team
consists of the old, the weak, the pregnant and the disabled. Strictly speaking, they are still short of disabled.
Akasi feels that among the four people currently, he is probably the only one who can take the lead.
Even the balance system allowed Uncle Ling and Xiao Yuan to have basic combat abilities.
But one of the two is a pure human being, and the other is burdened by the child in his belly, and cannot show any fighting power at all.
As for "Fuxi"...he couldn't see through it yet.
When Xiao Yuan joined, Akasi thought that there must be no combination of old, weak, pregnant and disabled people.
But he found that he was really unlucky, and whatever he wanted came to him.
The fifth one wearing a bright bracelet is still a human.
And really a broken human being. He was in the corner of the venue.
After the pregnant woman Xiao Yuan also found a place to belong to, this person also looked at Qin Ze and his party with the idea of trying.
Qin Ze and Akasi both saw this man.
Akasi directly put his hand on his forehead and sighed:
"It's amazing, this combination is really well assembled." The
thin body looks even thinner than Qin Ze. If you just look at the face, you will feel that he is a fifteen or sixteen year old. young man.
If you ignore that the "young man" only has one hand and one foot.
Akas even doubted whether this person could still function normally.
Yes, he was sure there was nothing wrong with the word running.
Because the other party is... a mechanical life.
One hand is a metal arm, and the remaining legs are also metal legs.
And the most terrible thing is that part of his head is exposed. The human brain is combined with the mechanical circuit, and short-circuit current sparks occasionally burst out in the blood.
This is terrible.
Akas heard from the high priest that a long time ago, said to be earlier than the Old Calendar Era, there was indeed a mechanical empire.
There are some mechanical beings that can think.
Of course, everything came to nothing later. There was once no more strange power in the world.
However, after the arrival of the Old Calendar Era, the strangeness will revive, and perhaps the world will have new mechanical life.
Akas saw it.
If this wasn't a big competition coming up, he would be happy to get to know this mechanical life.
But unfortunately, the next game he participated in was very cruel. He hoped to meet a teammate with countless tentacles.
Obviously, this team is... not weird enough.
Yes, a team of five humanoid creatures is too weird in a country of competition.
Qin Ze was very optimistic. He saw Akasi's depression and patted Akasi on the shoulder: "
Let's go Akasi, let's go meet this... amazing teammate."
Akasi did not He stopped and asked helplessly:
"Don't you know that our situation is very bad now?"
Qin Ze nodded:
"I know, but it is difficult for my mood to reach a state that makes me depressed."
Akasi Xin said that this can be regarded as a kind of talent.
Qin Ze smiled and said:
"If you think about it this way, the worst case scenario is that we are in a state of abstention. We are not even qualified to play, so we have to become slaves of the competitive country, forced to act as citizens of this country, and lose our freedom forever. Leaving my hometown."
"You must want to go back to the land of chaos, and I also want to go back to where I am." "
And Xiao Yuan, and the fifth person we are about to meet, they actually gave us A chance to fight."
Xiao Yuan felt a little moved when he heard this.
She knew that she was a burden on the team and was worried about being squeezed out.
Akas was thoughtful and seemed to understand what Qin Ze meant.
Instead of complaining that teammates are not doing their best, it is better to give them some tolerance. At least the situation is already very bad now and no more "teammate disagreements" will be allowed.
Fuxi is indeed a very wise man...
Akasi once again over-interpreted.
Of course, Qin Ze's statement does have this direction.
The four of them quickly arrived at the place where the mechanical boy was.
"Hello, my name is Fuxi. We need a teammate. We must gather the minimum number of participants. Are you willing to be our teammate?"
Qin Ze extended his hand.
The young man shook his head and said,
"Sorry, the energy in my body is unstable right now. Shaking hands with you may cause... current disturbance in my body." "
My name is No. 4."
No. 4? This is really a special name. Qin Ze naturally retracted his hand:
"Your current condition seems to be very bad. Do you need us to help you?"
No. 4 shook his head and said:
"I need some time... to repair myself. Don't look at me like this. In fact, I He's very capable of fighting."
Number 4's voice sounded like a boy's at first, but soon turned into a "signal cavity" mixed with electric current.
Aka Sixin said, this is really dilapidated to a very exaggerated level.
But soon, Akasi changed his mind about No. 4. Just like he disliked Xiao Yuan but gradually discovered Xiao Yuan's specialness.
Number four is also special.
Qin Ze asked:
"What is your wish? Can you tell me? I think we actually have no choice. We can't leave you, and you can't refuse us. If you want to realize your wish, I hope that from this moment on, we will A comrade you can trust."
Ling Aozhe admired Qin Ze even more.
There is even an intention to directly promote Qin Ze to be the company's second-in-command after returning to the real world.
Of course, he knew he couldn't go back.
No. 4 nodded and said:
"The optimal solutions I have calculated in my mind are all achieved by gaining your trust first. In other words, I can only choose to join you." "
Thank you for not being disgusted. Although You have no right to dislike him."
There seems to be a problem with the connection between politeness and rationality, causing No. 4 to sometimes speak like a humble teenager, and sometimes like an efficiency-seeking robot.
After a brief pause, No. 4 said:
"My wish is to find a place that welcomes me and can bring me further evolution." "
Like you, I am an Old Calendar person. My profession is a mechanic."
Qin Ze was interested. Isn't this the same as Cheng Wan?
But I don’t know which one is stronger, No. 4 or Cheng Wan.
"In order to pursue the limits of a mechanic, I want to break the barrier between flesh and blood..."
"I'm actually not a black calendarer in the traditional sense. At least I became a black calendarer, but I found that the profession of a mechanic... can only be limited to the combination of objects." "I think humans may have limits
. , and I heard that once you degenerate into a black calendar person, you may further... lose your human identity and become an old calendar creature, which is the so-called old calendar form." Qin Ze probably guessed the
direction of the story of No. 4, this is actually a Martyr?
Sure enough, No. 4 said:
"The old calendar form is said to be related to personal obsession. My obsession... is to become a mechanic, a real mechanic, a mechanic who uses machinery as a soul container." "I succeeded
. ."
I succeeded. These four words made Qin Ze feel a kind of shock inexplicably.
He realized that he shouldn't compare Cheng Wan with No. 4.
Cheng Wan didn't dare to violate taboos. He would be surprised to see that he had the manuscript of the Golden Calendar.
And the person in front of him is, in the true sense, a man who cannot live without being crazy.
In order to achieve the "mechanical unity" of body and mind, No. 4 actually became obsessed with becoming a mechanical life, so that his old form no longer evolved in the direction of restraint, but... mechanization.
You know, although "obsession" is a guide, it can determine certain characteristics of your old calendar form.
But the process of degenerating into an Old Calendar creature, that is, awakening to the Old Calendar form, actually involves a lot of variables. Most people’s old calendar forms are distorted, ugly, weird, and full of indescribable meanings.
Such as Xiaoyuan.
Xiao Yuan's old calendar form made a beautiful woman look like a mummy, and those bandages were as alive as Medusa's hair.
But No. 4 actually made his old calendar form full of mechanical beauty.
It's like a sophisticated machine. After calculating every variable of his own, he controlled the variables to the values he needed...
thus, a mechanical life form was born.
Those who can achieve this level are ruthless people. Most of the martyrs who dare to use their own bodies as experimental subjects have very exaggerated achievements in their own fields.
Number 4 is definitely not comparable to Cheng Wan.
Qin Ze realized this, but Aka Si did not.
However, Akasi saw some clues from No. 4's wish.
Just finding such a place makes the God of Competition think that this wish... is brilliant. What kind of place must this be?
Does this mean that this place is extremely important in the eyes of the God of Competition?
If we can help No. 4 realize his wish, then maybe in the future, the place where No. 4 is located and the force it represents... will also be thinking of a favor from the land of Chaos.
This made Akasi change his view of No. 4 a lot.
But the social butterfly Qin Ze didn't understand it this way. Qin Ze grasped another key point in the conversation and made Akasi understand what top diplomacy means.
"Find a place that welcomes you..."
"No. 4, I don't know why you gave up your human name, but I guess that when you became a mechanical life... you must have suffered a lot of rejection, right?" No.
4 Because part of the brain is exposed, you can see some strange reactions when flesh and blood combine with circuits.
Huge emotions welled up in No. 4's heart, and some bad memories came to mind.
Number Four tries to control his emotions and transform certain negative emotions into sadness through mechanical means.
Qin Ze said at this time:
"People always shout to seek common ground while reserving differences, but reserving differences has always been a slogan." "
Facing the aliens, they are afraid and disgusted. The last thing they think of is to eliminate the aliens." "
But it doesn't matter. , our group of aliens are tenacious enough. You are welcome to join, and I will do my best to help you find the place that welcomes you."
No. 4 raised his head.
The pupils turned red before, which is a sign of overload of negative emotions.
But after hearing Qin Ze's words, he felt a long-lost understanding.
He once had his own lover and friends.
He is also a genius who became famous at a young age.
It's just that there's often a thin line between genius and madness, which also makes some of No. 4's remarks feel crazy.
Genius is always lonely, without exception.
But now, this overwhelming loneliness seems to have eased a little.
"There is a 77.3% chance that it is words, and a 22.7% chance that it is sincere."
This was the analysis in his mind after turning it into data.
It doesn't really matter whether Qin Ze is a warm man or a "self-interested person" who is good at guessing people's hearts.
Because in No. 4's opinion, as long as he has this 22% possibility, this person is worth getting to know.
"I'll make a difference. Thank you."
Successfully won.
Although it was not difficult in the first place, Ling Aozhe saw it and felt that Xiao Qin made the team more cohesive.
In the next hour, everyone waited for a while, and after making sure that there were no other lone people with Brilliant-level wishes, they went to another venue and registered.
Qin Ze registered his codename Fuxi.
This means that the person commentating on the game will call him Fuxi.
Qin Ze thought about it, it is said that Nuwa escaped into the old calendar world.
If he really used Uncle Ling's luck to survive, it would mean that he would win the championship.
Then Fuxi's name may be spread...
maybe it will become a legend in the old calendar world?
Will this cause him to offend Nuwa?
No matter how you look at it, it looks like you are taking advantage of Nuwa, right?
When Qin Ze thought of this, he felt a little happy inexplicably.
In short, the combination of the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled and the pregnant were successfully registered.
Team members, Fuxi, Akasi, Ling Aozhe, Xiao Yuan, No. 4.
Team name, Homesickers. This is the name given by Qin Ze because everyone in the team, including the pregnant woman Xiao Yuan, is eager to return to their hometown.
Team number 504, estimated ranking - 498.
This means that this "Homesickers" team is ranked at the bottom among the 512 teams.
This actually surprised Akasi. He was not ranked 512.
It turns out that there are about a dozen teams that are even weaker than their old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant team.
...
...
The country of competition, the market.
There are still two hours left before the first big game.
Most of the teams have begun to adjust and understand the rules of Hell Ball, and each member has begun to rehearse tactics.
But for Qin Ze and others, tactics?
A pregnant woman, an immobile robot, and Ling Aozhe, who has no combat experience, how can he customize tactics?
And the most important thing is...
they need to supplement the props. So five people came to the market.
The state of the market is somewhat different from what Akasi expected.
I originally thought that during this time, the market would be deserted because the high-quality props had basically been picked out.
Most of the props that can be left at this time are props with little real value.
This is indeed the case.
But there weren't many props left, but there were a lot of people.
What Akasi didn't expect was that there was a long queue in front of a small stall.
"What the hell?" Akasi couldn't understand.
There were almost no people in the other stalls, but in one small stall, there were so many people that it was incomprehensible.
Even in the market a few days ago, the most popular stalls should not have so many people.
And in the long queue, from time to time, the person at the front will leave, then shake his head and sigh. Or someone is angry and feels cheated.
Akasi inquired about it for a while and found out that there was a big gimmick.
It is said that there is a treasure in the stall, which needs a destined person to open it.
In the past few days, the treasures have been passed down from ten to hundreds, and the treasures have been passed down in an increasingly exaggerated manner. From the very beginning of the treasure, it has become a treasure that can turn the world around.
Akasi was delighted at first, and then felt that if so many strong men couldn't open such a treasure, then his old, weak, pregnant and disabled team must not be able to open it either.
There are only a few hours left, and Akas doesn't want to waste time waiting in line.
"I think we should spend our time in the right place, what do you think?"
Qin Ze didn't know why, but he thought of the Guanwei Dice that banker Lu Buwei couldn't open. When he got it in his hand, he opened it inexplicably. .
He said:
"Akasi, your thinking is wrong. Your approach is to strengthen the team in a traditional way." "
But do you think that traditional means can allow us to win?"
"To defeat the strong with the weak, we must fight for will. But more importantly, it’s about striving for a miracle.”
Akasi felt that it actually made sense.
Qin Ze said: "Other props are unwanted by others, and the possibility of missing them is very small. Now, it is better to take a gamble." "
We all line up, what if the treasure can be opened by us?"
