A mob of clones

Chapter 547 Luo Feng: There are so many heroes in this world
Earth time is May 16, 2066.

This is a very special day, because today the Universe Top Genius Competition was finally passed, and the registrants confirmed that the final start time has been reached.

At this time, all the contestants were summoned together to the large star area of ​​their own advanced universe country.

The originally extremely scattered groups of people in the virtual universe were now densely packed together.

A large group of people stood densely on the specially opened platforms.

If someone with trypophobia came here, he would probably be scared to death on the spot.

At this time, in the virtual universe, the Qianwu star region.

"Wow, there are so many people~"

Luo Feng and his companions were teleported from the island where the Black Dragon Mountain star field was located to the Qianwu star field. They looked at the heads that were scattered all over the mountains around them.

Looking at the dense crowds, some tall, some short, some fat, some thin, some naked, emitting a faint glow, as if they were carved from gold, while others were covered with black hair, a deep black from head to toe.

There are so many individuals that it is difficult to describe them with just one word: weird.

Even though they had experienced all kinds of things in the past few years and had gained a lot of knowledge, the three of them couldn't help but marvel at it.

"There really is nothing lacking in wonder in this world."

If Luo Feng remembered correctly, the number of people from Qianwu Universe alone who participated in this event had reached a huge number of 800 billion.

Although there are bound to be some mediocre people who just want to fill in the numbers and take advantage of the situation.

But that can't be the majority no matter how you think about it. People who really want to stand out in the competition must have a certain degree of confidence in their own abilities.

They are all geniuses who have gathered from all sides, elites from all over the world.

Some of them may be extremely lucky and have many adventures. When they go out, they may be hit on the head by a cosmic crystal, or when they fall, they may find a force weapon buried for many years under their feet.

Or there are people who are gifted and are talented practitioners valued by their family.

Or some people are born into a noble family, and their master is the immortal master of the world!
They are all outstanding stars, and are undoubtedly the best of the young generation among human beings in the universe.

All of them were filled with hope and ambition, standing here with great aspirations, believing that this peak genius battle would be the beginning of their fame...

Luo Feng, Hong and Lei Shen were watching everything around them. Although they were in the virtual universe, it was difficult to feel the aura of these people without entering the killing field.

But the will conveyed just through the network cable was enough to make the three of them look solemn.

"This is just an advanced universe country."

"There are also quite a few geniuses who have joined the Virtual Universe Company directly through internal channels, and even the Giant Axe Fighting Arena."

"The geniuses here are not all from Qianwu Universe."

"And if I remember correctly, the entire Qianwu Universe is only considered middle-to-lower among the 1,008 universes of mankind."

"According to the data, there wasn't even one person in the top 1,000 in the last Universe Genius Battle."

"But even so, there are so many geniuses gathered here."

"If so many people can't make it into the top 1,000 of the universe, what kind of terrifying level have the geniuses in other universes reached?"

As he pondered over this, Luo Feng couldn't help but sigh.

"There are so many heroes in this world."

Compared to Luo Feng's thoughts, the Thunder God next to him thought less, and his eyes were constantly looking around.

A pair of eyes that seemed to contain lightning could take in the faces of tens of thousands of people at a glance.

But after looking for a long time, he still didn't find the person he was looking for.

It was not until a moment later that someone seemed to notice his behavior and couldn't help but frown slightly. He then slowly stopped his actions and sighed.

"I just don't know where that guy, Third Brother, is now?"

"Even if that guy gave birth to a clone, it shouldn't run away from the Qianwu Universe. After all, the advanced universe is so big. Even if he has been running away for the past few years, he may not be able to run far."

Babata beside him nodded slightly to Thor's mumbling.

"That guy should also be in the preliminaries of Qianwu Universe."

"Anyway, in the end, out of 820 billion people, there will only be 100,000 left."

"When the time comes, you can just look at the first place in the 100 divisions."

"Even if that guy's killing efficiency is not as high as others and he falls behind, he will definitely not be eliminated with his strength."

"Look slowly and you will find it."

In response to Babata's suggestion, the three people around him nodded slightly.

However, just as the three of them nodded, above their heads, the rules of the game that they had read countless times before the game were finally read out for the last time on the spot.

And the countdown sound also sounded at this moment
"The collective teleportation is about to begin, countdown, 60...59...58..."

The clear voice resounded over the platform that was specially designed to accommodate more than 800 billion contestants.

The ocean-like crowd suddenly boiled over at this moment.

In the last few seconds, Luo Feng and the other two looked at each other, smiles filled their cheeks.

At this moment, there was nothing else on their lips, they had absolute confidence in each other's strength.

Luo Feng: "Good luck."

Thor: "Let's pass the pre-selection together."

Hong: “Come on.”

The next moment, a bright light surged up, and the eyes of the three people were covered with dazzling golden light.
As the final sound unfolded in the ears of more than 800 billion people.

Then in the next instant, everyone on the platform disappeared.

same moment.

Worlds that are almost complete and impeccable appear abruptly in the virtual universe.

Countless people who disappeared on the platform suddenly appeared in those separate worlds.

More than eighty-two people in a separate world.

Cosmic Humanity - Battle of Peak Geniuses, the preliminaries of all major cosmic nations begin at the same moment!
……

At this moment, in the seventeenth universe...

The golden light in Hong's eyes had just dissipated, and strands of natural light rushed into his eyes. As a practitioner in the field of light, he could see the surrounding environment clearly in an instant.

The place where he was at the moment looked a bit like a bar. The light around him was a little dim, and the lights above his head flashed a variety of different colors, making the atmosphere of the whole place seem a bit psychedelic.

But Hong was not confused by the surrounding environment. He instantly grabbed the second-level force weapon spear and instantly stabbed the head of a contestant not far to his side who reacted a little slower than him.

Then the figure quickly retreated, hiding himself in a small space, and then quickly observed the surrounding environment.

The first thing he noticed was the surrounding walls. He reached out and touched them, and his heart suddenly felt a chill.

This wall is so solid that Hong feels that if he doesn't exert a certain amount of strength, he may not be able to break it. This wall is only a few dozen centimeters thick.

It wasn't just the walls, but even the light bulbs above his head, the glasses on the counter, and even the trash can next to him for discarded wine bottles. In his perception, the hardness was almost the same, at least reaching the hardness of B9 metal.

Even the gravity of the surrounding environment is at least tens of thousands of times that of the earth.

Fortunately, Hong, Luo Feng and Lei Shen have been training in the universe for so many years that they are basically accustomed to this level of gravity.

This did not affect his actions.

After reading all this, a huge explosion suddenly came from outside.

It was obvious that when he found out about the situation, the people outside had basically reacted completely and started fighting.

The loud explosions sounded like endless firecrackers during the Chinese New Year.

However, seeing this scene, Hong did not have any intention of getting involved. Instead, he hid his figure even deeper, blending completely into the shadows. If ordinary people did not look carefully, they would not be able to see that there was a figure there.

This is Hong’s current strength, the ninth level of the light realm, touching a trace of the law of light.

This strength is enough to compete for the first place in a universe area.

But Hong had no such plan.

As a killer, he has long been accustomed to hiding behind the scenes. Compared to standing in front of everyone, he is more accustomed to standing in the shadows and launching a fatal blow to the enemy when necessary.

As long as he wanted, even the top geniuses in the universe where he was, few people could detect his existence.

Therefore, without paying any attention to the noise in the outside world, Hong stayed alone quietly, slowly checking the situation on his side.

Participant: Hong (Black Dragon Mountain Empire)
Points: 1
Ranking: 95213450th

World Region: 17th World Region

Time: The pre-selection elimination will last for 30 days. When the time is up, the entire pre-selection ends, and the winner will be determined based on the points ranking at the last moment.

Annotation: The seventeenth world zone is a continent simulated based on the appearance of the real planet Ionia in the Qianwu Universe.

There are a total of seventy-three cities on the entire continent, as well as wilderness, mountains and rivers, with a land area of ​​more than 17 million square kilometers.

The hardness of many objects in the world area, such as houses and ground, is B9.

Points rules: Kill a player to get one point, and you can also get half of the opponent's points! So, you can get more points by killing the masters.

Ranking rules: The dead are still ranked. If the points are high enough, even if the death preliminaries are terminated and half of the points are lost, they may still be among the top one thousand and one. So please hurry up.

A solemn reminder that everyone only has one life. After death, the preselection stops and half of the points are lost.

The detailed ranking list is attached below:

……

The ranking list that unfolded in an instant was reflected in a pair of deep eyes. Hong's eyes, which were originally extremely dark, showed a deeper aura at this moment.

"With such a small map and 8.2 billion stellar-level warriors, nearly one thousandth of them died in just a few minutes."

"The highest ranked player has even reached three million points."

“It’s really amazing!”

"However, with the first batch of killings, when there are fewer people waiting, the reduction rate will gradually decrease until all the points are concentrated on a few people."

After letting out a long breath, Hong's eyes flashed with a fiery fighting spirit.

He didn't say a word, just stared at the person at the top of the list.

"Kevin Kaslana? I'll remember you!"

"I hope to see you again on the field at the end of the race, and then we will definitely have a battle!"

……

At this time, the outside world...although the preliminary elimination rounds have just begun.

However, due to the dense crowds at the beginning, quite a number of people were teleported to the same square, or even to the grass, in an instant.

The surrounding environment is open and there are no other obstacles.

The human heads stood there like countless leeks.

In such a good environment, if there is a genius who wakes up quickly, it will basically be a dimensionality reduction attack on all other players around him.

So even though the game had just started for less than two minutes.

Players with scores of hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of points continue to emerge like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Occupying the top 100, top 10, and even the first place in one world region after another...

At this moment, above the seventeenth world zone.

A huge spaceship hovered above it, looking down at the huge yet tiny world below.

And in this spaceship, a four-meter-tall strong man with a head that was shining like a light bulb looked at Ming Yu, who was much taller than an ordinary person but still as small as a figurine, and laughed:
"Mingyu~, how is it? Has your Black Dragon Mountain branch discovered any outstanding talents recently?"

"Our Dapeng Empire branch has produced two absolute geniuses at once this time."

"One of them reached the ninth level, and the other one even comprehended a trace of the law directly."

"See? The 13th and 372nd on this list are both geniuses from our branch."

"If I remember correctly, your Black Dragon Mountain branch didn't even produce one candidate that could make it into the top ten thousand last time."

Looking at the bald man showing off in front of him, Mingyu smiled lightly but didn't care too much.

He glanced at the list in front of him, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

And at this moment, a burst of exclamations suddenly sounded from all around.

"What is that?"

"No! Impossible!"

……

These exclamations came from some spaceships next to them.

In the virtual universe, those who can dock the spacecraft at this location are basically wealthy and powerful people, with extremely high strength and status.

Among them there are even some world masters, immortals, and even rulers of major and mid-level cosmic countries.

Even the worst ones are almost the same as them, probably the top domain lord level in the virtual universe company.

The one who could make these people exclaim must be extraordinary.

Therefore, the sturdy man turned his gaze directly and looked towards the interior of the seventeenth universe area.

But you don’t know until you see it. When he saw it, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Look~ Look what he saw?
At some point, the list, which originally had a maximum of just over 100,000, was refreshed at a certain moment.

The glittering number of 10 million stands out so much compared to the number of 100,000 that follows closely below.

And this number is increasing at an incredibly alarming speed.

The words written by the first place were No. 1 Kevin Kaslana (Black Dragon Mountain Empire).

"It's impossible that they killed 10 million people in such a short time?!"

"With 8.2 billion people, there are more than 70 cities. How many people live in one city?"

"This is just the beginning! He killed more than one thousandth of them by himself."

With an expression of disbelief on his face, the burly man directly searched for the video projection of the venue where Kevin Kaslana was.

"Could it be that this time many people were thrown together into a place that is extremely suitable for a certain genius to display his strength?"

"That's not right. How could the virtual universe favor a genius?"

"And even if that's the case, it shouldn't be like this! Killing 10 million level 9 stars in one go..."

As he turned the page he was still muttering, "Impossible."

But when he actually turned to the other person's position, he couldn't help but fall silent.

Where is the favoritism, where is the venue that is extremely suitable for one person to perform?

……

The Seventeenth World District, the Thirty-Seventh City...

In a normal city, there are buildings everywhere that have reached B9 grade metal strength.

Any of these houses would be difficult to destroy even if a normal ninth-level star-level warrior exerted his full strength.

Houses like this one are densely packed here, just like the sand on the beach, spreading to the end of the sight.

In an environment like this, let alone a stellar-level one, even a cosmic-level or even weaker master-level powerhouse would not be able to carry out a large-scale massacre in a short period of time.

But right here and now...

The sky is full of flames. This is not just an adjective, but flames that literally cover the entire sky.

The reason why only the sky is described is because these flames only belong to the sky. As for the earth, it is the realm of ice.

Bloody ice covered most of the city.

All the land within a hundred kilometers around the origin was frozen by a blood-red ice.

And frozen in the ice that seemed to have no end in sight were the ninth-order star-level geniuses who came here full of hope.

Among these people, there are many geniuses who have cultivated to the highest level in their fields.

There are even people who have reached the fifth or sixth level.

In their own power, they are like the emperor who always accepts offerings.

Some of their elders are even world masters, and their teachers are immortals.

Some were born mediocre, but were determined and climbed to their current position through their own efforts.

But at this moment, their strength, identity, understanding, talent, or any other attributes are meaningless.

Because they have all lost their lives in the ice, turning into cold numbers in that long list of points.

And the blood-colored ice was still spreading around, and continued to climb up to a number that was almost higher than the total of all the people on the world zone qualifying list except him.

The geniuses who were originally still fighting in the city and barely noticed the abnormality and escaped the disaster looked at the approaching blood ice with horror in their eyes.

He completely ignored the enemies around him and turned and ran.

Whether they are ordinary stellar-level powerhouses who were lucky enough to be far away and barely escaped the disaster, or they are absolute geniuses who have comprehended a trace of the original laws of the universe, they are all treated equally at this moment.

The genius who was once admired by countless people now looked as miserable as a flock of sheep being chased by a wolf.

And the white-haired figure who caused such a horrific scene just stood quietly at the highest point of the city, looking at the surrounding environment without chasing or making any other opinions. He just inserted the flaming sword in his hand into the ground in front of him, holding the sword with both hands and looking into the distance.

It seems that everything we do now is just a trivial matter.

"Why does a bird in a cage long to fly far away?"

The next moment he pulled out the flaming sword that was stuck in front of his eyes and raised it high into the sky.

The next flame, which seemed to be frozen in the sky like a background animation, suddenly swirled up without any warning and instantly formed a raging fire storm.

The blazing flames formed a huge vortex more than ten kilometers wide directly above the sky.

All the power gathered in the center of the vortex and exploded at a certain moment!

"You have no way to retreat! The end has come..."

……

At this time, on the outskirts of City No. 37.

"Huhuhu~"

Several star-level powerhouses who had finally managed to crawl out of the terrifying devil's cave that was like an abyss were not far apart at this time, but they had no intention of attacking each other.

They all touched their chests and gasped for breath. Although after the planetary level, most life forms no longer have the ability to breathe. They directly use the energy core in their bodies to supply their own power and no longer need aerobic respiration to decompose organic matter.

But at this moment they still felt the burning pain in their lungs.

It's not a physical feeling, but a psychological one.

Horrible, really terrible!

There was no way to resist at all. No matter whether it was the warriors or the spiritualists, they were like eggs hitting stones when they encountered the bloody ice. There was no room for resistance and they were destroyed like dry weeds and rotten wood.

Even if a genius of the seventh or eighth level of his domain deployed his domain to resist, no one would be able to last the next second in a head-on confrontation.

“The gap is really too big!”

With thoughts surging in their minds, several stellar-level warriors who were closer looked at each other. Some of them wanted to bring up the matter and continue fighting, but when they saw the flames surging in the sky, they smiled bitterly and put away their weapons.

Look at that pervert over there! Hit a big watermelon!

However, just as that person put away his weapon and had almost completely given up the idea of ​​fighting with others, and wanted to lie on the ground to rest for a while, the action of the person next to him suddenly attracted his attention.

At this time, several star-level powerhouses who escaped with him were staring at the sky in amazement. Some of them even couldn't help but point their fingers to the place where they had just escaped from, as if some incredible scene had appeared there.

But he really sneered at this in his heart.

This star-level powerhouse is the direct disciple of an immortal powerhouse in a divine kingdom within the Qianwu Universe. At the ninth level of his realm, he has already realized a trace of the fundamental law of water.

Normally, he could even be number one in the world.

But the stronger you are, the more you can understand what a perverted person the guy is who just slaughtered tens of millions of people in an instant.

He couldn't even understand the fundamental laws of water contained in that level of ice.

You have to know that the realm master who his teacher once brought to substitute for him and who had comprehended the law of the origin of water had not reached such an outrageous level.

He had faced perversions like this before, and he felt as if his soul was being sublimated.

One has reached a wonderful state where one is not happy with things, nor sad with oneself, and is able to take on things and let go.

He really didn't believe that anything else could shock his soul.

With this thought in mind, he turned slightly and looked in the direction of the other people's fingers, and then his whole face suddenly froze...

“Cities, why are they flying?”
