Chapter 1971 The key to unlocking Long Ahong!
Chapter 1971 The key to unlocking Long Ahong!
The most worrying situation for the opponent's space warriors is: the opponent (legendary team) has a magical weapon, and he fought with all his strength at a great cost, and lost in the end. Wouldn't it also have a chain reaction in the battles that can be won later?
After this victory, the entire martial arts world was shocked. The Crocodile Gang, who was originally classified as the third tier, faced three powerful enemies after two consecutive losses, and actually bucked the trend and won two victories! !
According to the evaluation of others afterwards, if the Crocodile Gang did not give up when facing the Shaolin sect, but directly used the same lineup as when facing the Putian Shaolin to go all out, at least [-]% of them would have been calculated mentally or unintentionally. Odds of winning.
However, after this rumor came out, Lao Feng of the Crocodile Gang was still very sensible. He immediately said that the Crocodile Gang could not be the opponent of the Shaolin Sect in any case. He knew that he was invincible, so he was willing to retreat.
Even the Wudang scene was a lucky surprise, a combination of sheer luck and luck.
From the beginning to the end, the Crocodile Gang just wanted to be in the top ten and had absolutely no other intentions.
After hearing what Lao Feng said, the Shaolin sect must be quite comfortable, and the Wudang sect also gained face, so the original plan to suppress the Crocodile Gang was stillborn.
After all, Shaolin Wudang's position in the martial arts is deeply rooted. At least half of the people who set the rules in the Central Martial Arts Center are related to these two sects. Therefore, it is difficult for Shaolin Wudang to work together to do whatever they want, but if they want to be bad, then But it couldn't be simpler.
As soon as Lao Feng said these harmless words, some inexplicable troubles and suppression suddenly disappeared. It can be said that the old is still the hotter.
At this time, the Crocodile Gang has a record of four wins and three losses, officially entering the top ten, and whether it is the Shaolin sect, Wudang sect, or Putian Shaolin, they are all recognized as stumbling blocks, which can be said to have passed the devil's schedule directly.
On the other hand, the upcoming schedule will not be smooth sailing, but at least it will not encounter strong enemies in succession.
As a result, almost many parties began to be optimistic about Crocodile Gang, and the most intuitive feedback was given to the betting bookmakers:
When Fang Linyan first took over, the odds of the Crocodile Gang entering the top ten gangs were [-] to [-]. After two consecutive victories, the odds dropped to [-] to [-].
The funniest thing is that when the Crocodile Gang faced Shaolin's forfeit, they obviously lost the game, but the odds continued to drop, becoming three to one.
The current odds are [-] to [-]. Excluding handling fees and margins, it is almost unprofitable.
***
Midnight,
The mansion here of the Crocodile Gang is brightly lit.
Laughter echoed in the lobby, and the sound of glasses and glasses of wine could be heard more than ten meters away.
The winner always gets everything: interest, honor, money, joy, admiration, flowers.
Of course, there is also the division of interests after the fact, the division of rights, etc. In short, it is full of intrigues and intrigues.
For all this, Fang Linyan has the ability to participate, but he has no interest in it. Leave these matters to Omi.
This woman is both ambitious and has a strong desire for power. She is very happy to do these things, and as a woman, she always has an advantage in negotiation, so she is perfect for doing these things.
Fang Linyan found an excuse to get away from these trivial matters, and found Xingyi to return to the most primitive joy:
"Harder, harder," Fang Linyan urged irritably.
Xingyi's answer was in a tearful tone:
"I've been in this position for almost 10 minutes. Why do I exert so much force? I'm numb!"
Fang Linyan said angrily:
"Do you still need me to teach you? Just tighten it a little bit."
Xingyi said aggrievedly:
"Okay, I'll try my best"
At this time, the goats and others standing outside the door looked at each other in confusion after hearing such harsh words, and for a moment they had the urge to turn around and leave.
Ahem, after all, we are all men. We know that if something like this is interrupted in the middle, it will definitely be a little uncomfortable.
The goats and the others felt a little guilty about running away at the critical moment, so they simply planned to leave for ten seconds. (Fang Linyan has a black face, I'll give you a second to organize the words)
As a result, Crespo stepped on something and made a noise. Fang Linyan in the room heard it and immediately said:
"Are you goats here? Come in quickly?"
goat:
"(Shocked jaw expression), boss, are you sure we come in together? Your taste is so strong! But you also have to consider whether Xingyi can bear it."
Fang Linyan said impatiently:
"What are you talking about? Come in quickly."
As soon as the group of people entered the room, they saw Fang Linyan holding the Mingxin alms bowl high. Xingyi, who was helping next to him, was holding a large pliers and clamping the Mingxin alms bowl forcefully with the peculiar posture of a female gymnast.
If you look closely, you will find that there is actually a mechanism on the Mingxin alms bowl. Fang Linyan must hold it high. At the same time, the alms bowl must be tilted more than twenty degrees, and the position of the mandala flower texture stamens on it will be slightly protruding. .
There are seven mandala flowers on the Mingxin alms bowl, and all the stamens must be pinched with pliers within two seconds to trigger this mechanism.
Because the Mingxin alms bowl was heavy, Fang Linyan could only lift it just now, and Xingyi came to hold it. At this time, the goats and the others came, and Max, a strong man, was here, so it wouldn't be a problem. Max came to hold it. Then, Fang Linyan came to take charge of cracking the mechanism, so it was done easily.
As a result, after pressing the seven mandala flowers, I immediately heard a clicking sound inside the Mingxin Bowl. Then the bottom of the entire bowl began to rotate rapidly, revealing the mezzanine below, with densely packed fly heads written on it. The fonts are small, and if you look carefully, they are recorded in special words.
This text seems to be Sanskrit, but there is a big gap between it and the current Sanskrit. Even people from Tianzhu may not be able to understand it. This is just like Chinese people can understand articles written in regular script, but those written in small seal script are very difficult to understand. It's hard to decipher for a reason. Fang Linyan speculated that this should be ancient Sanskrit, and it was the kind that was only spread in a certain area.
Fortunately, there is a language master like Goat here!Even Noah Space found it difficult to communicate, identify, and deal with him. Of course, this remote text was not a problem for anyone. After the goat carefully translated it, he suddenly said with a happy face:
"This thing is actually something passed down from ancient times. It has been summarized into the advancement of basic skills. It is called the art of peace and endurance."
"To practice this thing, you need to master basic melee combat and basic steps."
"To be specific, it is through meditation and adjusting one's breathing to make one's resistance stronger. Intuitively speaking, if you practice to LV1, you can increase your health by an additional 200 points."
"It can also strengthen one's own recovery power and reduce the negative effects when injured. For example, a leg injury will cause the movement speed to be reduced by 50%. Then after practicing it, the movement speed will only be reduced by about 25%."
After reading it, Goat was worried that something was missing, so he took the paper and printed it directly, and explained at the same time:
"This thing cannot be strengthened with potential points. You can only practice it hard, and then use the prescriptions recorded above to prepare the corresponding medicines, and you will get twice the result with half the effort." "According to the above records, the art of peace and tolerance can be practiced by everyone. It’s just that the better the qualifications, the faster you can get started. Anyway, I will give it a try when I get back, and I think such good things can be shared with my family.”
Fang Linyan didn't expect that he would get this unexpected harvest from studying the Mingxin Bowl, and he was very happy, so he asked Goat to get a translation for everyone so that they could take time to practice.
At this time, Crespo took the lead and said with a somewhat guilty expression:
"Boss, I deserve this."
Fang Linyan said curiously:
"Ah? How do you say that?"
Crespo said solemnly:
"Hey, when you were fighting the Lord of the Abyss to death, we couldn't help you."
Fang Linyan smiled, then waved his hands and said:
"This matter has nothing to do with you. The situation at that time was indeed dangerous. You may not be helping me by staying. Omi made the wisest choice. If I were Omi, I would definitely do the same."
To be honest, Fang Linyan must have had a grudge against Oumi's behavior of taking people away, but rationally, Fang Linyan also knew that the other party did nothing wrong.
More importantly, in the end, he successfully killed the Abyss Lord, and the result was a great success!Then of course you can be more generous.
On the contrary, if the plan to kill the abyss lord failed because Omi took people away, Fang Linyan would certainly not be so easy to talk to.
At the same time, considering that everyone would have to work together in the future, even through life and death, Fang Linyan directly made the final decision and said that this matter was over and should not be mentioned again in the future.
Of course, blind tolerance can only make people feel lucky, and necessary beatings are still needed, so Fang Linyan simply asked the goat to get two props:
The glory of the morning star,
Mermaid's Tears of Joy (mass-selling version)
These two props are for high-value keys. If you use the key in advance, you can have a certain probability of improving the quality of the equipment obtained from the key.
Of course Fang Linyan did this next, took out a key and used these two props on it, and then directly threw the key to Xingyi next to him:
"You helped me a lot this time, so I will let you open this key, and we will take turns to choose, and you will choose first. What kind of extra reward you can get depends on you." It’s up to you.”
Xingyi didn't expect Fang Linyan to come out like this, and he was a little disinterested in his heart, and said with a half-smile:
"Don't think about using any junk to get rid of me. Look, I have to do hard labor every day, which makes my skin tan."
Fang Linyan smiled slightly and said:
"You actually called Hong Key, Long A in The Condor Heroes, a piece of junk. Do you believe that this shrewd old woman was so angry that she came back to life on the spot and yelled at you to death?"
After Xingyi heard this, he immediately let out an excited scream!
She never expected that this was really a big pie falling from the sky, and it hit her eyes so hard that she suddenly let out an "ah" sound:
"What are you talking about! You are not joking!!"
Fang Linyan said lightly:
"Would I joke about something like this?"
After finishing speaking, Fang Linyan reached out and pressed the key. He immediately saw an illusion appear on the key, showing the scene where Long Ahong was killed.
Seeing this scene, Goat and others were shocked, but they didn't know that this was just the most basic operation after Fang Linyan obtained the artifact Ring of Ouroboros and fully controlled the power of destiny, and it didn't cost anything. .
After confirming that it was really the key dropped by Long Ahong, Xingyi immediately played with the key carefully with a flushed face, thinking that my desperate gamble at that time finally paid off, and then opened it happily.
It is worth mentioning that at the moment when the box was opened, an angry lion roar sounded. This sound spread far away, and even people in this world could hear it clearly, causing the crocodile to panic. The gang members felt like they were facing a formidable enemy and immediately started to investigate everywhere.
Immediately afterwards, the box slowly opened, and the following things appeared:
The first thing that appeared was a yellowed secret book. The words on it were written like dogs crawling. It was very ugly and somewhat nonsensical.
Invincible Hot Wheels
Quality: High-Level Legend
Explanation: This is a martial art that only some talented guys can fully unleash their strength. After activation, it can fully unleash the potential of the legs and increase the movement speed to an astonishing level, but you'd better be in Activate it where visibility is high and the terrain is relatively simple.
Otherwise, think about the consequences of driving a motorcycle at a speed of 300KM/hour into the mountain road of Qiu Ming Mountain. You will get the achievement of being "broken to pieces", unless you are the legendary Qiu Ming Mountain Motorcycle God.
There are no prerequisites for using special cheats, but for people with ordinary qualifications, it is difficult to exert its power.
After learning, you will gain agility +8, and your movement speed will be permanently increased by 15%, but your ability to change direction during movement will be reduced by 50%.
Tip: This secret book disappears after use and is dropped from Long Ahong, so it is more suitable for women to practice. You can hold it in your hand to sense its suitability before practicing.
The second thing that appeared was a yellow loudspeaker with cracks. It looked like a speaker, and there was some dust on the surface that had not been cleaned.
lion roar trumpet
Quality: High-Level Legend
Explanation: The lion's roar skill was derived from the lion's roar of Shaolin's 72 stunts. However, from the day it was created, this magical skill has always existed as an auxiliary type and has never shown an impressive performance.
Until a domineering woman with a cigarette in her mouth, permed hair, and tilted her head to look at people practiced this martial art, and the fit between the two reached a perfect level.
In her hands, oh no, it should be in her throat, the lion's roar skill burst out with terrifying power, even reaching the point where the heroes in the world were restrained by it.
