Chapter 21: Shocked! The true body of the first number!

After a not-so-long silence, Rin exhaled slowly, he looked at the floor with golden eyes, and subconsciously muttered, "Fortunately, obsidian is not expensive." ”

He completely accepted his role as a butler.

- It's really imposing. On the other side, looking at the broken stone crack under No. 3's feet, Hotaru swallowed her saliva, but thought with some envy.

"Of course I can take you there, but I have to walk a little lighter."

And Joshua, who had already finished changing into a dress, didn't feel sorry for these floors, he just said to Miss AI in a soft tone.

And choked on this tone, No. 3, who had never heard of Joshua's tone, had a strange expression - the living metal structure did have an expression, she thought about it, and then explained with some reluctance: "The output of this body is still a little unstable, and when stepping on the floor, it will always subconsciously increase the output of the furnace heart...... There is too little running-in, and I can't help it. ”

"Then it's going to take more practice." The warrior's tone did not have the slightest hint of reproach, he waved his hand indifferently, and the invisible force regathered all the broken obsidian in the entire Lord's Mansion into a single piece, restoring it to its original state as if going back in time, Joshua seemed to be holding a vase, but he forgot the sturdy nature of the other party: "You can practice casually around the Lord's Mansion, but you have to pay attention to it when you get outside." ”

And probably hasn't gotten used to this steel body yet, Miss Artificial Intelligence suddenly jumped, Hotaru and Rin were confused, but the warrior could see that she wanted to fly into the air like before, but how could the magic projection be compared to a constructed body made entirely of precious metals? The amount of magic required to make this steel body covered with all kinds of runes float is a hundred times greater than that of making an iron block of the same weight float.

Shaking his head, Joshua simply stepped forward, picked up No. 3, who was about half the size of his body, with one hand, and then put it on his shoulder for the moment Miss AI was stunned, in this process, the warrior has been very careful, and it seems that he is very careful about his strength, but even with such a cautious effort, the two-ton structure body turned into a light piece of paper in his hand, as if it could float away at any time.

Turning his head, Joshua saw the silver-haired girl with an envious face, he smiled, and then took the other party's hand and said, "Take turns to sit, let's go now." ”

Although he said with a smile, his tone was unquestionable, the two girls subconsciously hummed, and then lowered their heads and stopped talking, Joshua turned his head to look at Rin in the study, the black-haired young man blinked, and then immediately said, "Master, you forgot?" I'm also going to deal with the terraforming of the new town, so I'm not going to celebrate this time. ”

"Thank you for your hard work." Stepping forward, the warrior touched Rin's head, and he said easily: "Where you want to go in the future, just say it like No. 3, there is no need to suppress yourself." ”

"There are not many places in this world that we can't go." He said.

Soon after, Joshua, Hotaru and No. 3 entered the portal on the top floor of the Lord's Mansion and headed for the imperial capital.

And Rin, who said goodbye to them, watched the dark blue ripples of time and space slowly calm down, his originally smiling face gradually became serious, he rubbed his temples with some distress, and muttered in a low voice: "Strange, why does it feel wrong?" ”

It's not just him, Hotaru and No. 3 also feel that something is wrong, and unlike the artificial intelligence that uses an unfamiliar steel body, the psionic body of the god girl directly holds the hand of the warrior, so her feeling is especially obvious.

She...... Is there really a hand to hold the owner's hand?

Temperature, Feel, Strong, Tough...... It didn't feel wrong, but Hotaru always felt that there was a small but real barrier between her and Joshua, and this barrier was so weak that it didn't even isolate the temperature, but this barrier was so strong that even she, who already had a holy weapon level, couldn't affect it in the slightest.

In fact, they were right, and Joshua did not come into contact with anyone now.

In a sense, he didn't even touch everything in this world.

Since returning from the world of Grandia and becoming a legend, his body has been transforming little by little towards the most transcendent form of his ideal - the few months spent in the sacred mountain of the far sea, Joshua did not spend all his time traveling to the world of Karlis, most of his time was actually spent exchanging legendary ways with Pope Eagle and completing his own form.

Now all the energy in Joshua's body, whether it is life force, fighting qi or all kinds of other fragmentary elemental power, has been transformed into pure steel power, steel power, as one of the highest level and highest authority energy in the material world, relies on assimilating other material energy to self-strengthen, and all the previous strength of the warrior can only be transformed into a small ball of steel power, and this small ball of steel power can assimilate a small hillside of the Karlis world in a few days, The strength and strength of the warrior's body have increased to a terrifying level.

Let's put it this way, although the current Joshua is still in human form, but in fact it is just a shell for external communication, and the inside of the shell is a high-temperature and high-pressure, indescribable high-density material aggregate, similar to the general energy movement of nuclear energy reaction, which provides this body with energy for daily actions, and because the density of this body is too large, the assimilation reaction of the power of steel is too rapid, and the situation is so complicated that once the warrior touches something with his body, the power equivalent to the mountain will directly crush them, The Force of Steel then assimilates it, a process of self-evolution of super life.

In order to completely control this power, instead of being driven by the power to assimilate, Joshua had to temporarily stop advancing and focus on analyzing the deeper nature of the power of steel, and before that, he manipulated the free energy and magnetic field around him, forming a thin film that bound his body, and if the matter from the outside world could not shatter this electromagnetic position composed of Joshua's own power, it would definitely not be able to contact the warrior body behind the shell.

This layer of shell is all-round, so although Joshua seems to be standing on the ground now, in fact, he is now in a state of volley, there is a layer of undetectable gap between the sole of his shoe and the ground, if he steps on it, then no matter how solid the ground is, it will be completely twisted and crushed by his terrifying weight - that's why he is so tolerant of No. 3, the artificial intelligence girl is only two tons, and his weight is at least 10,000 times that of the other party now.

This kind of walking is actually very inconvenient, and you also need to pay attention to the things around you, so Joshua will carefully contact No. 3 and others, in his eyes, everything is too fragile, as long as you let go of the restraint and touch it lightly, everything will be shattered, and now he temporarily understands why most of the legendary powerhouses live in seclusion, or only use their avatars to act in the outside world, because their ontology does have great power, and just their existence will affect the survival of the people around them.

Joshua is fine now, but if his quality increases further in the future, then the warrior will have to build a new lord's mansion in the depths of the Great Ajax Mountains, otherwise, he will be a great threat to the hundreds of thousands of inhabitants around him, and if he is not accidentally released one day, then most of the city will be destroyed.

Even a single drop of 'blood' would erode the surrounding earth within a radius of hundreds of square meters, the result of Joshua's experiments in the depths of the Great Ajax Mountains.

Then again, most of the legendary powerhouses that the warriors knew didn't have this kind of trouble.

St. Eagle's body is the body of light, and his body should be the endless light that surrounds the great temple on the top floor of the Sacred Mountain in the Far Sea, and that human body is just the appearance of his former human being, his incarnation, this form, even if he completely lets go of the restraints, is just a super-large sun lamp hanging above the Sacred Mountain of the Far Sea.

The nature mentor incarnates a place in the ecosystem, her existence not only does not bring trouble to the surroundings, but can also regulate the environment and ecology of a place, making the barren land fertile, and focusing on making the elves stronger, even if her power is rampant, it is nothing more than the incarnation of a large black forest, of course, this black forest itself is a legendary living thing.

As for Israel, the essence of his power is said to be 'will materialization', neither in description nor in hearsay, it does not seem to be a power that will have too much influence on the material world, rather than worrying about this, it is better to worry that the emperor will one day forget to feed him the Infernal Dragon, and the dragon's wrath must have caused more damage than his own power storm.

This is also the difference caused by the different paths chosen, Eagle is the Pope of the Church of the Seven, the Mentor of Nature is one of the supreme leaders of the Elves, and Israel is also the Emperor of the Empire, they are all the leaders of a large force, and their power takes into account other aspects in addition to destroying the battle.

And the path chosen by Joshua is the path of pure steel, the most singular way of 'destruction'.

Steel is a thing that forges swords and soldiers, and although it can also cast agricultural tools, it is also a man-made thing that must be tempered by flames in the final analysis, and everything that is man-made means a battle against this world.

Even the seemingly indestructive hoe is essentially destroying the original form of the earth and shaping it into the shape that humans need. The action of actively sowing seeds, harvesting food, supplying human beings for survival, and developing civilization is actually the use of human beings as intelligent beings to challenge the natural ecology of the whole world as not beasts, but the chief of all souls.

Fighting spirit, vitality, magic, martial arts, magic, magic technology, magic arts...... The essence of all power is like this, it is a tool for human beings to develop themselves and challenge the world, although the power of steel is the original force of the beginning of all things, as long as it is in the hands of human beings, it cannot be an exception.

Stepping into the portal, holding Hotaru's hand, and sitting on his shoulder No. 3, Joshua was still thinking about his questions.

The most important of these is the descendants.

The current age of the warrior is still too young compared to other legendary powerhouses, before him, no one could have thought that there would be a legendary powerhouse in his twenties in this world, except for him, even the youngest legend is at least forty years old, not to mention the full house of descendants, but there must be a bloodline passed down in the world, how can it be like him or celibate.

The first level of the legend, there is still the possibility of natural reproduction, but the middle level of the legend, after being completely converted into a high-level life, is basically isolated from ordinary people, and it is impossible to have normal descendants without special means - if it is the kind of void beast advanced by Herras, there will be no reproductive isolation, that thing is similar to a dragon, or even stronger, it can mate with any life, attention, it is any, it can even pollinate flowers, and then give birth to its own plant descendants, and fungi can also spread spores, which can be described as omnipotent, Therefore, as the embodiment of the primordial life force, the Void Behemoth is also known as the biological plague that roams the multiverse, and the worlds that have been invaded by them will only have their descendants left in the end.

Of course, Joshua is not a multiverse stallion Void Behemoth, he didn't think about his descendants at all before this, and there is basically no such thing as the love between men and women in his head. In the eyes of the warriors, all lives are equal, the difference is the combat power value above their heads, which is indeed a kind of high spiritual realm, but now it has caused him some kind of trouble.

In recent months, at least dozens of nobles have sent him invitations either implicitly or directly, of course, Joshua has refused all of them without exception, he is not pursuing celibacy, but he is not interested in marriage for the time being, although this world is rejuvenated by the rekindling of the flames, but there are still evil gods and abysses are peeping, and if these problems are not solved, the warrior is not in the mood at all.

As for the rest of the matter, let's talk about it later, after the middle level of the legend, it is not completely impossible to produce offspring, but it is just that because the life personality is too high, the conditions for the breeding of descendants are too harsh, so it is difficult to succeed.

Not really...... Joshua actually has another option.

At this time, the warrior can already engrave his inheritance information in his body, just like the bloodline inheritance of the dragon clan, the warrior can also engrave his memory and inheritance in the body, and then 'split' it out, as long as Joshua reaches the perfect body realm, he can be like an ancient dragon, drop a drop of blood, and that blood can also survive alone, which is his heir in a sense, only need to find a mother to continue to conceive, and it can become a complete life.

But this is really a bit like an alien, too weird, and Joshua is a little hard to accept.

While thinking, the warrior stepped out of the portal again, and the dark blue ripples slowly closed behind him, and in a short moment, he had come from the north to the foot of the three mountains in the imperial capital, and the distance of thousands of miles passed in an instant, Joshua subconsciously straightened the No. 3 on his shoulder, but at the moment of touching the opponent's body, a shadow suddenly flashed in the warrior's mind.

"Wait, First Number!"

He subconsciously opened his mouth and muttered to himself, and the artificial intelligence girl and Ying blinked when they heard it, and looked at each other, feeling a little inexplicable.

Joshua didn't care what the two men were thinking, he was frowning, recalling the scene when the first horn was born.

At that time, because he suddenly couldn't control the 'power of creation' in the world of Ilgena, he sublimated a part of the steel into the element of steel, which is now the first number, and this power was directly given by the steel python, and now it seems that its essence is the origin steel from the world of Ilgena.

It is proved that it is the power that allows the warrior to give life to inorganic matter, and this manifestation is the primordial life force that can incarnate all things. This power had been lurking in Joshua's body, but it suddenly erupted at that time, he originally thought it was just a simple accident, but now that he thinks about it, maybe it was because he had reached the peak of extreme intent at that time, and the fighting energy in his body had begun to return to its origin towards the power of steel, and the two repelled each other, and then forced this external force out, and the result was the birth of the first number.

And the first horn has wisdom from the beginning, perhaps because that steel power contains part of the information of the steel python Ilgna and Joshua, in a sense, the first horn may really be......

"No, that's still weird."

In the strange gaze of Hotaru and No. 3, Joshua took a deep breath, he shook his head and said, "I don't want this kind of thing yet, I'm here to watch the celebration today." ”

As he uttered these words, the warrior forcibly cleared his mind of all speculation about the first number, deleting and formatting it entirely, while he looked up and looked around.

It was now noon, and the sunshine in the center of the empire, the capital Sanshan region, had the brightest sun since the long winter, and among the green plains below, the silver ribbon-like river was flowing quietly, and the spring breeze swept through the trees around the river beach that had glowed with new leaves, and the wild beasts and their cubs could be faintly seen running among them.

Because of the celebration, the Imperial Capital's wide-area space-time anchor circle was temporarily reduced to the point of only covering the top of the mountain, dozens of portals leading to various places were neatly placed in all directions below the mountain, and temporary reception areas were set up to welcome these distinguished guests who could use the portals, and the avenue leading to the top of the mountain was full of tourists and adventurers from all over the world, who came to see the biggest celebration of the Northern Empire.

The Microf continent is vast and sparsely populated, and a city often sees a lonely scene where several streets are empty in the evening, but at this time, the imperial capital is unusual, far more than usual, the flow of people is coming and going up and down the mountains, and even many visitors from the scarce tribes in the far distance can be seen in the crowd, and even the barbarian under Joshua can see a few people.

Compared with other regions, the portal connected to the Northland is the most spacious, this is because the space-time turbulence that surrounds the Northland has only disappeared in recent years, the teleportation network has just been established for less than a few years, and there are still relatively few people who are used to using this thing, so when the warrior and his party walked out of the portal, it naturally attracted the attention of a large group of people around.

"Joshua!"

Not far away, a man's voice was slightly surprised, and after a while, a blonde man led a woman with violet hair out of the crowd and came to the front of the warrior, he originally wanted to open his arms to Joshua to hug, but because of the steel girl on the other party's shoulder, he regretfully stopped: "You are finally here." ”

"I'm not late, Brandon, Verdany."

Joshua shrugged his shoulders and told a serious joke: "Justice may be late, but I won't." ”
