Chapter 45: Unlocked
The Empire of Twilight, the "City of Waiting".
Above the main hall, the black sharp face was gloomy. Ever since he learned that Fermat and Strom had slipped away, he hadn't looked good. He didn't bother to find out whose responsibility it was, anyway, even if he wanted to, the seemingly respectful old manager would obstruct it. He also saw it, after all, this country is not his, he it!
"It's not easy to run a country, fuck, one has more personality than the other, and one doesn't take me seriously more than the other. I'm glad I'm a good man, otherwise, hum ......" Sitting on the throne, he looked numbly at the ceiling, visibly exhausted: "I'd rather have some incompetent but obedient subordinates than such subordinates who are capable but always like to poke the basket." β
His parasite, Christo, poked out of his armpit (like an oversized, shiny white armpit hair) and smiled, "You are really suitable to come to our world to develop, after all, most of our world is 'untouchables' and 'soldiers', and you can't be more obedient." β
"Please, don't keep coming out of strange places!" Black Sharp hurriedly pressed Christo back into his body, for fear that this scene would be seen. There is no way, he is a ghost, there is no "body" to speak of, Christo naturally wants to emerge from wherever he wants. The armpit is one of the only joints in the "Wind Rider Suit", and it's understandable that bugs are drilling around here.
After being rudely stuffed back, Christo didn't care, got out of the host's throat, and continued: "Seriously, since you're not valued, why don't you travel? I'm tired of seeing the scenery here! β
"Agreed, understand? I have a man's agreement with June Sunshine! When he comes back, we'll go on a tour again. β
"What gender do necromantic creatures care about?"
"......" the black sharp weak, and quickly changed the topic: "Oh, there is a question I have wanted to ask for a long time!" It's a shadow demon parasitic on June Sunshine, isn't it? β
"yes." Christo replied dryly, on the face of it, without any intentions.
"And you're an energy storage earthworm?"
"Host, you have the leisure to ask boring questions, you might as well think about the route map of our trip. Oh, Orquila is destroyed, and the lake of broken silver is gone......"
Ignoring the parasite's fragmented thoughts, Black Sharp asked, "No, what I want to ask is, why aren't other Shadow Demons as powerful as it?" β
Christo replied, "Because he's a genius." I'm not modest, but I'm also a genius. It should be said...... Every pioneer is a genius. β
"What do you mean? How do I feel that the word 'genius' has dropped its price? β
"That's right! Host, you always boast about yourself, saying that you are a genius, and change a set of fist and foot martial arts into sword skills-"
Black Sharp pretended to be shy: "Hehe, stop praising me, I'll be proud." β
"I didn't praise you!" Christo was not angry, but he finally kept his senses and did not let the host divert the topic: "Then again, believe it or not, not every genius can live to be a pioneer, but every pioneer is an undoubted genius." It would take about 10 million soldiers to have a vanguard; And among the untouchables...... I don't think I've heard of a Dalit being a pioneer. β
"Huh? Didn't you say that the Atlas is divided into four classes - Lords, Vanguards, Soldiers, and Untouchables? How does it sound that the vanguard is closely related to the soldiers? β
"That's right. Those who can evolve into pioneers are geniuses among soldiers. β
Black Sharp said urgently: "You wait, wait!" I haven't figured it out yet! I originally thought that a pioneer is a pioneer, and that I was born different from a soldier. You mean, you can evolve from soldier to vanguard? β
Christo sighed again: "Host, am I not explaining well enough, or is your IQ relatively low?" Alas, if the Necromantic King were my hostβ"
"Hey! Don't keep thinking about changing jobs! So why is it that only you can be pioneers and nothing else? β
"Uh...... Because we're geniuses? β
The black sharp grabbed the parasite, picked up the purple long sword and gestured: "Damn, even if I'm a good person, I'll put up with you!" I'm going to cut my appendix today! β
"Who's afraid of whom!"
One person and one insect fought for a while before it stopped. Christo came out of nowhere: "Seriously, we are unique pioneers precisely because we do what ordinary soldiers can't, just as your heroes are by no means imbeciles." Ordinary Shadow Fiends can only be [Dark Parasite], [Shadow Clone], and [Black Blade Whirl], but Xue Duo has comprehended a new ability - [Shadow Jump] through his own exploration and research, and it is this ability that has earned him the title of 'Walker', and he is no longer a simple Shadow Fiend, but a Shadow Walker. And so did I, I realized a new ability that seemed to be the opposite of my race, Energy Injection, which meant that I had a greater control over heat than anyone else had before, so I was given the title 'The Master'. β
"It seems that each pioneer has a different title?"
"Yes. All in all, those who can break through the natural shackles of the race, which we call 'untying the genes', are eligible to receive the title bestowed by the leader and become the head of the clan. The vanguard comprehends not only the ability, but also part of the essence of the plane, and this comprehension cannot be taught to others, so it is impossible to achieve the vanguard in batches. Vanguard descendants have a chance to inherit their abilities, but this is no more likely than 'evolve directly into a Vanguard', and the chances will decrease from generation to generation, so some of the most interesting abilities in history have disappeared completely with the death of the Vanguard. β
"Sounds like the Vanguard is awesome!"
"Of course!" The word 'pioneer' means the advance of the march, the leader of the cause, and it represents outstanding qualities and abilities. No matter what kind of war, we will definitely be on the front line, adapt to the harshest environment, and deal with the most incredible enemies. You see, since I came to this world, I have comprehended the 'realm' that I would not have been able to comprehend, gained a new ability [Crystallized World], and helped you obtain the 'Ice Boundary' of the magic pattern. In both your world and ours, the temperature decreases when the heat decreases, and this rule is the same, so I can get new abilities with a little flexibility, but other earthworms can't. Speaking of Xue Duo, didn't he also delve into [Ink Armor] and [Black Blade Whirlwind: Death Love Letter]? β
"After mastering so many new abilities, did you evolve into a 'lord'?"
"It's not that easy." Not only does the Lord master all the abilities of his own race, but he also focuses on developing more ancient fragments of his genes, trying to trace the distant times and gain the root power of all his close relatives, and their offspring have a 1 percent chance of evolving into a vanguard. For example, if I can learn the [Flicker] of the Sky Worm, I'll be a Lord. Ah~ I really want to be a king! Then my offspring will be able to win at the starting line! β
"Descendants? Hahaha! I can't imagine that you, a traitor, will have a sense of responsibility! β
"Questions?"
Christo's voice was suddenly calm and indifferent: "The meaning of living organisms is to continue the population, and the ability of individuals to adapt to the environment acquired in evolution should be recorded in the racial gene pool, so that the new generation of people can obtain the capital of survival." I have betrayed my world, but I will not betray my instincts as a creature. You necromantic creatures, on the other hand, do not have the ability to reproduce, and you do not need the ability to reproduce, because you are selfish and ruthless, and do not share your dependence with others, even if it is your offspring. β
The first time Black Fengrui saw the parasite so serious, he wondered if he had said something he shouldn't have said, he was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to speak.
Christo was silent for a while, and then said: "The gene lock is layer after layer, each layer will only be a hundred times more difficult than the previous layer, and a slight deviation from the direction will cause the gene to collapse, I don't know how many people fall halfway through the unlock." But it doesn't matter, failure is the mother of success! The cases of the losers are recorded in the database to guide the direction of the latecomers, so one day, we will have thousands of kings, and the total combat power will surpass many planes, becoming the most powerful existence in countless parallel universes. β
"I feel like I've heard a lot of secrets today."
"That's right!" Christo shook his head: "A large part of the above is only known to pioneers, so don't go around telling others." β
"Don't worry, I'm a good person, I will keep my mouth shut." Black Sharp smiled and asked, "Why did you break the news to me so quickly?" β
Christo also smiled: "Because I don't need to take advantage of you, and I won't betray you." β
"Haha, well, I accept this reason!"

Continental Fuji, Kaminarimonbara.
Blue fireflies weave into bands of light, weaving endlessly across the battlefield and attracting attention. However, the most important thing on the battlefield is to be distracted, and those who are attracted by fireflies are all brought down by sudden knives and guns. The biggest difference between the living and the dead is this: the necrons have no curiosity and will only scrupulously follow the orders of their superiors, so they will attack without relenting no matter what appears around them.
Grabbing a firefly, only to find that it was nothing more than a harmless and embodied spirit child, the commander of the creature hurriedly shouted: "It's okay, don't pay attention!" β
γPhoenix Dressingγ.
Like a mortar fire, a vertical line appears on the battlefield, creating a bloody gap. The commander was on this line, his head shattered, and he was killed with a single blow. Without command, the battlefield was in chaos.
Qing Yi incarnated as a White Bone Tyrant, activated the [Soul Vortex] and [White Bone Purgatory] at the same time, and said abruptly: "Two, please remember today. β
Dao Bing Wuji and Kazuki Lin Yi glanced at him suspiciously, and they already understood, and they each smiled.
Today, three Necromantic Kings are about to create a legend...... A legend that cannot be copied or imitated.
So ah, remember today.
