Chapter 85 Meg's Protection
Every year at the end of the year, it is the busiest day for every household.
Farewell to the old year and welcome the New Year. Merchants must check out the annual closing date, reward what should be rewarded, and dividends that should be distributed; officials should make personnel adjustments, promotions that should be promoted, and criticize what should be criticized; major families should compete at the end of the year to screen their children, evaluate their strengths and weaknesses, praise what should be praised, and scold them.
Long before Su Chen returned from the Crimson Mountains, the Su family had already started to be busy with the year-end competition.
This is a grand event for the children of three generations, and it is also a place where young people compare their martial arts and show their talents.
It is not only the champion that attracts people. Although the strong children are competing for the championship, the latecomers are also competing for their own position. As the year approaches, everyone is working hard to make the final struggle for the upcoming competition.
Su Tong, the beloved grandson of the eldest elder of the Su family, was the third place in the last competition, perhaps because he was stimulated by Su Chen and went to the Crimson Mountains in person not long ago. Of course, he did not take the blame, and he also brought some entourages around him, which greatly increased his safety. Although the level of experience may not be enough, when he came out of the Crimson Mountains, his temperament became significantly stronger.
Su Ling'er, the granddaughter of Su Fanxi, the fourth elder of the Su family, is fourteen years old. She went to her mother's house a year ago. She just came back not long ago and had reached the seventh level of physical training and was close to the eighth level. Her goal is not to be the champion this year, but next year. By then, Su Chen and Su Qing and others will not be able to participate in the competition because they are over 16 years old. At that time, the third generation of the Su family will be Su Ling'er's world.
In addition, there are a group of Su Yue and Su Xing, including Su family, each of whom is working hard in his own way.
The most eye-catching ones among them are naturally Su Chen and Su Qing.
Su Chen didn't want to say anything. After the second return of Crimson Red, his status in the Su family was at its peak. No one dared to bully him just because he was a "blind man".
As for Su Qing, he is missing.
No one knows where Su Qing went, but from Su Keji's performance, he is full of confidence in this year's end-of-year competition.
The twelfth day of Yinshan’s return is three days away from the year-end competition.
Today, Su Chen was practicing in the back mountain as usual.
Unlike others, Su Chen's practice is to only practice source skills.
Tang Zhen has deciphered two more ancient Auwens, namely the Fireball and Meg's Guardian.
In ancient times, since the history of the Ao tribe's research and application of source energy was just beginning, he had the habit of naming source technology with his own name. For example, the same type of defense cover can be given different names by just the nuances in the source energy model to form different types of Dharma covers.
This is completely different from now on. After tens of thousands of years of refining and removing the drought and retaining the essence, most of the source technology left behind are the most cost-effective source technology. Although this practice has enhanced the practicality of modern source technology, it also reduces the variety of source technology in disguise, increasing homogeneity, and reducing personal characteristics. In short, it is routine. In contrast, the defense magic shield of ancient arcane may have various defects and shortcomings, but it also has its own unique characteristics.
For example, modern source technology is a habit of pursuing the use of the least source power and the fastest speed. In order to ensure the maximum efficiency of source energy utilization, it often forms a powerful impact force when the magic cover is broken, such as Li's magic cover. However, Meg's protection does not follow this idea at all. The inventor of this magic cover has never considered the maximization of the value of source energy utilization. In his eyes, the meaning of the existence of the magic cover is protection!
So how can we achieve the ultimate protection?
The inventor of the Dharma shield used a unique idea to solve the problem - infinite superposition.
Yes, Meg's magic cover has a very average defense effect, but this magic cover has a very special feature that it can be stacked infinitely. That is, as long as you want, you can continue to stack it up after using a defensive magic cover on yourself.
However, every time the magic shield is superimposed, the source energy consumed will double. If the release of a Meg guard requires the source power of the two white stars, then the second Meg guard consumes four white stars, the third one consumes six white stars, and so on.
This is also why Ulric didn't do that at the beginning, and the consumption was too high.
Although it is a bit useless, it is undeniable that in some special circumstances, this source technology may play a role beyond its own level.
Su Chen still does not have his own defense source skill, so he is not too picky about food. After learning this source skill, his survivability has also been greatly improved.
The fireball is a typical traditional attack source technique, which belongs to the routine. From ancient arcane to modern source techniques, there is nothing to say about it. Su Chen actually wants source energy missiles more, this powerful source technique that is both generous and single, but its model is too complicated, and Tang Zhen has not been able to completely decipher it yet. Deciphering and practicing words requires a very cautious matter. After all, if you don’t do it well, it may cause death if you make a mistake.
In fact, what Su Chen wants most is to move the shape and change the shadows. This is the best survival source technique. It is highly versatile in avoiding and escaping, and it is of practical significance to cultivate to the Kaiyang realm. Unfortunately, this source technique is more complicated than source energy missiles, so don’t count on it in a short period of time.
After more than ten days of cultivation, the crazy use of the Source Stone allowed Su Chen's mastery of the two Source Skills to make rapid progress.
Since Su Chen had mastered five source techniques before, plus these two, there were seven, this was actually quite a lot for a source qi guru who was in the early stage of qi extraction.
Most source qi men actually don’t learn so many source skills, and most people can even learn one or two. After all, these are low-level source skills and will be eliminated in the future. No matter how much you learn now, it will not be of much use in the future. In addition, practicing source skills is not of any benefit to improving your cultivation, so few people are willing to waste time in this regard.
However, for Su Chen, who can see the light spots of the source energy, improving combat power is to improve the speed of cultivation, so other people's worries do not exist at all in him. In addition, he has made two consecutive money recently, and the source stone has no place to use it. Now he only thinks that there are few source skills and is not afraid of more source skills.
The twelve days of cultivation have made Su Chen's strength significantly improve by another big step compared to before.
It was still practicing at this moment, Mingshu suddenly ran over and said, "Young Master, Young Master!"
"What's the matter?" Su Chen casually added a third Meg guard to himself. In the absence of attack, it would take some time to wait until the magic cover automatically disappears, so Su Chen simply did not wait and directly used the infinite superposition of Meg guard to repeatedly bless him. Although doing so would lead to wasting source power, isn't we an active stone?
Being rich is so willful.
"Su Qing is back." Mingshu replied.
