Volume 6: The Twelve Wallfacers Chapter 34: Beacon with the Power of Rules
"I have forgotten many things in the past, but...I seem to have seen you!"
When the hooded man in front of him said this, Shen Jin was suddenly shocked!
"Have you seen me?"
"Maybe... but I can't remember clearly. I only know that my name is Zero now, and I'm the boss of all the pancake makers. I heard him say, are you the leader of us?"
Zero pointed at Meng San.
Shen Jin took another close look at the white light ball under his hood and found that he still couldn't see through it. "Well... you are all my soldiers. You need to follow my orders 100%!"
"Okay, no problem. Anything else, sir?"
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment. Is there something wrong?
There are so many things to do!
Where did you come from, and why do you suddenly seem so familiar?
Also, how did you become their boss? Did I allow it?
There's nothing solid under your hood, right?
Otherwise, why would you have to hide it?
Why white light?
Shen Jin had so much to complain about, but he didn't know where to start...
Meng San saw that Shen Jin looked a little unhappy, so he pulled him aside and explained, "Boss, I have studied this Zero today. He did appear out of nowhere, but... the others went their separate ways and didn't notice that there was an extra person among them, and they all obeyed him, like the boss they elected together. Of course... they listen to us more, after all, the system is there. This Zero is a bit like the village chief. Although everyone listens to him, they will not break our laws for the sake of the village chief, nor will they execute some of the village chief's strange orders. For example, if Zero asked them to eat Aoli Gei, they would definitely refuse and secretly call him a pervert..."
Shen Jin seemed to understand a little, but he had more doubts. "I roughly understand their relationship, but... on what basis? How can he, a newcomer, suddenly become the boss of so many people? Also, he suddenly appeared, could it be someone's ... summoning technique?"
Meng San replied: "Maybe it is indeed a summoning technique... but it is not a traditional summoning technique like Tong Zhen's. After my research, I found that this Zero might have been summoned by everyone together!"
"Summoned together??? Holy shit, they also know this kind of high-end fusion technique? But why is their strength only at the peak of the second level?"
Meng San waved his hands quickly, "That's not what I meant, Boss... Do you still remember that they can all work together to use fusion skills? The kind with a blood shadow behind them!"
Shen Jin remembered that their flexible fusion skills had caused him a lot of difficulties at the beginning. "Remember, what happened? Later I remember that they seemed to be unable to use fusion skills suddenly!"
"That's right! After we killed Murata, everyone's fusion skills became ineffective. At that time, I guessed that Murata's existence was related to their fusion skills. Guess what... Today, as soon as Zero appeared, their fusion skills became usable again! However, after taking our [Energy Serum], their ability defects were compensated, and they can use fusion skills more smoothly than before, and it does not arouse any negative emotions. Their combat effectiveness is strong!"
Shen Jin was shocked after hearing this, Zero actually restored their fusion skills.
"So, what you mean by the summoning of everyone is... this Zero is the product of everyone's special abilities?"
"Right! That's right! Originally, after Murata's death, their abilities had even greater flaws, and they were unable to use their previous fusion skills. However, after taking our [Energy Serum], their flaws were repaired, and they were able to summon a new Zero, completing their abilities and regaining their fusion skills.
I think their ability includes the function of amplifying emotions. What were amplified in the past were arrogance, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony and lust. These emotions combined into a collective totem, which is Murata!
After we eliminated Murata, their totems were lost, and part of their special abilities were gone, so they were unable to use fusion techniques.
This also explains why after we eliminated Murata, he and his sword disappeared from the face of the earth, leaving only a torn hood, because he was originally a combination of spirit + energy, he thought he was a physical entity, but... he was not.
I have investigated them, and found that everyone has lost their memory of Murata, and can only recall some things by using "that person" or "someone". The desires represented by Murata have also been cut off, and everyone's personalities have become clearer.
Now, after our training, they have unified their thoughts and unconsciously used their supernatural powers to create Zero, a totem that combines their current mental states and is stronger than all of them. That’s why Zero says he is their boss, although he may think of himself as a human being.”
Meng San's detailed explanation allowed Shen Jin to finally find out the relationship between Murata and Zero, and by the way, he also learned about the unique abilities of these suicide squads.
"Wow, these little... pancake makers who live a good life, invented a really weird potion. Not only can they use fusion skills, but they can also create powerful spiritual totems. Although there are major flaws in emotions, our [Energy Serum] can eliminate the side effects. If used well, it is stronger than the strange-shaped mutants! By the way... do you have the formula for making this potion in Shenji?"
Meng San said with a strange look on his face: "Boss, when we destroyed the Shenji XP laboratory, Lord Shang Qian asked you if you wanted to keep their supernatural power potion experiment data. You said that this kind of evil supernatural power would harm the harmony of nature, so you had them all burned..."
“Ah, this!”
Shen Jin thought about it and seemed to have said something like this.
"Ahem... It's not a big problem. Didn't we save their methods of using the energy array? In this case... they are the last blood... blood... What do you call this supernatural power?"
"Blood fighting spirit!"
"Oh! Yes, they are the last ones to possess the Blood Fighting Qi ability, right?"
"In theory, yes!"
Shen Jin asked again: "Is this Zero... dangerous?"
"I'm not sure!"
Meng San had just sorted out their relationship and was far from being able to endorse Zero.
Shen Jin nodded and ate a transparent fruit.
"Zero, come here!"
Zero, who was wandering outside, came over respectfully and said, "Sir, what do you want?"
"What kind of system do you think is best?"
"Socialist system!"
"What do you think is the most important quality we should possess?"
"Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness. Freedom, equality, justice, and rule of law!"
"Will you always be loyal to Home One?"
"Yes, sir!"
Shen Jin nodded with satisfaction: "Let's go!"
Zero left with a wisp of white light under his hood.
Meng San: “…Is that all?”
"It's over. I carefully observed his body and found a human-shaped energy and many powers that I don't know about... Although Zero is not a human, his spirit will not lie. Since he is the leader of these people and has already surrendered, we don't need to worry about him. The supervision team may no longer be needed. Next... just give the task to him with confidence!"
"yes!"
Meng San didn't want to chop the suicide squad in the back every day, so it would be more refreshing to go to the front line and kill zombies.
"From now on, these death squads can use fusion skills to greatly improve their combat effectiveness. All of you corpse-killing squad captains can use their abilities reasonably to arrange your own battles. By the way, report the situation here to Yang Ao!"
"yes!"
Shen Jin left the dormitory area.
He was surprised by the appearance of Zero. Although it was a bit magical, but... it actually increased the strength of their Suicide Squad. The fusion technique was no joke!
"In this case... I don't need to provide them with supernatural food. Any problem can be solved by my own fusion skills. As long as they don't encounter a large zombie tide, ordinary third-level zombies should not be able to do anything to them!"
The strength and loyalty of his subordinates increased greatly, allowing Shen Jin to see a better future.
Back in his studio, the [Molecular Recombination Instrument] has already built a [Netherworld Star]. This process has drawn a large amount of Shen Jin's reserve electricity, but it will be replenished soon. After all, the base can now produce 470 million kilowatt-hours of electricity every day.
Shen Jin took the white five-pointed star-shaped object and put it into the [Synthesis Table] with other materials to synthesize the [Beacon]!
A blue glowing cube with a glass cover appeared in Shen Jin's hand, with an obsidian base underneath.
Looks very delicate.
Shen Jin found 164 [iron blocks] in the resource box he carried with him, which is 164 cubic meters of pure iron. These resources might have been a challenge for him before, but in the vast territory of China, they are nothing.
This amount of iron is not even enough for a large factory to produce steel in one day.
Shen Jin synthesized all the [iron ingots] into [iron blocks] and placed them in the [steel storage box] in the backpack for easier storage. A large number of [iron ingots] can be decomposed when needed. One [iron block] = 576 [iron ingots].
Shen Jin looked at the system's introduction to [Beacon] and said, "Build a one-! Four-story beacon tower with an effective coverage range of 2-! 5 kilometers, which is not bad!"
In order for the [Beacon] to work, a beacon tower must be built. The beacon tower can only be built using [Iron Blocks], [Gold Blocks], [Emerald Blocks], and [Diamond Blocks].
The beacon tower has a minimum of 1 floor and a maximum of 4 floors. The first floor is 3×3, the second floor is 5×5, the third floor is 7×7, and the fourth floor is 9×9, which adds up to 164 blocks.
Shen Jin was determined to build the highest level beacon tower, so he built a 4-story [Iron Block] beacon tower next to his studio and placed the [beacon] in the middle of the top 3×3 blocks.
“Buzz!”
A soft sound came from the [Beacon], and then a beam of white light shot out from the [Beacon] and shot straight into the sky!
In the dark night, it emits a bright light, allowing all those who leave home to instantly see the light of the base, which has the function of guiding the way. Shen Jin flew into the air and took a look . The light beam did not expand infinitely. When it reached a distance of 3230 meters from the [beacon], the light dissipated.
"The effective range is a cylindrical area with a radius of 5000m and a height of 3230m!"
Shen Jin came down from the air, opened the [Beacon] interface, stuffed a [Diamond] in, and activated the attribute bonus of the [Beacon].
Only Shen Jin can see the contents through the system, which displays five main attributes and one secondary attribute:
[Strength], [Speed], [Dig Speed], [Resistance Improvement], [Jump Improvement] and [Life Recovery].
"Now you can choose a main attribute and a secondary attribute to match, or choose a secondary form of a main attribute!"
One beacon tower cannot provide all the bonuses, and changing the attributes once requires one [Diamond].
Shen Jin first chose the combination of [Strength] and [Life Recovery]. An invisible force instantly blasted out from the [Beacon], covering an area of 5 kilometers in radius. At this moment, countless people in Jinzhou District, the No. 1 Home, suddenly felt the blessing of a force and life recovery ability!
In a high-rise residential building in a residential complex, a shirtless man who had sweat on his forehead and whose movements were gradually becoming slower, now seemed to be full of energy and launched another dragon-like attack!
And the other man who had fallen into sage time suddenly felt that he was able to do it again!
This power was bestowed upon everyone in Jinzhou District without distinction.
Shen Jin himself also felt the blessing from the strength. It was a wonderful feeling. He could originally lift a 100-jin barbell, but there was an invisible force around his body that helped him lift a 20-jin barbell. His weightlifting ability increased by 20%!
This isn't just giving him a direct injection of stimulants to allow him to unleash powers his body wasn't able to unleash before.
But...power, created out of thin air!
"The power of rules !"
Shen Jin blurted out.
He thought of the "Rule Coverage Theory" of the Second Wallfacer, which said that after the current earth is covered by higher rules, it will show an abnormal effect different from before.
Some extraordinary people also have the ability to temporarily modify the rules of some areas. "The [Beacon] has no energy fluctuations. If you look closely, it is just like a lamp that emits light, but... this power is generated out of thin air, so it must be a power that transcends energy and rules! As long as my people are within the coverage of the [Beacon], they can enjoy this 20% power increase buff."
Shen Jin removed everyone from the [Beacon] interface and only checked his own official troops. The strength buff and life recovery buff were only added to Shen Jin's extraordinary troops.
It is very convenient to use.
Shen Jin made another supernatural food, felt the effect of the [Life Recovery] buff, and was surprised to find that... this is to increase cell activity!
It's not just the body's ability to recover, it also includes the recovery of superpowers!
It increased his basic recovery by 20%!
"Good boy, now I can make about... 280 pieces of supernatural food that last for 10 minutes every day!"
Shen Jin gets an epic enhancement!
"Wow, this [Beacon] is really a good thing. It has only two attributes, but it has already increased so many attributes. If I get five [Beacons] to fill up the buffs, wouldn't it be a big success?"
"Right! Let's try how much attributes [Strength II] can add first!"
When [Beacon] only selects one main attribute, if you abandon the secondary attribute [Life Recovery], you can increase it by one level.
Spend a [Diamond] to change the attribute selection of [Beacon].
“Buzz!”
【Power II】!
Shen Jin felt the 30% increase in his own strength, and he climaxed instantly...
This is just one buff. If there are three more combat buffs, namely [Speed II], [Resistance Improvement II] and [Jump Improvement II], the three measurements of all team members within the range of the [Beacon] will be increased by 30%!
Shen Jin took a breath of cold air: "The power of rules is as terrifying as hissing——"
