Chapter 8 - beast's body

Early the next morning, Fuxi was still asleep when he was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, stood up and opened the door, only to find Nebula standing at the door with a smile on his face.

 

"Come with me, I'll take you to see some interesting things." Xingyun pretended, with a hint of expectation in her tone.

 

Although Fuxi was still a little confused, seeing Xingyun's expression, he couldn't help but feel a little curious. He quickly washed and tidied up, and followed Xingyun out of the room.

 

The two came to the ground, walked through an open field, and after walking for a while, they came to a huge building. This building looks like a huge turtle shell, with the highest point tens of meters high and covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters. The surface is covered with various moss and vines, as lush as a hill.

 

Fuxi looked up and couldn't help but sigh: "What kind of place is this? It's so big!"

 

 

Xingyun smiled slightly and explained: "Here, everyone will learn certain fighting skills, improve their physical fitness and reaction speed to deal with emergencies during missions, and this is the place where learning results are learned and verified, the Martial Arts Association." Fuxi asked curiously: "Does everyone here know martial arts?" Xingyun nodded: "Yes, more or less. Of course, there are also people who have a strong interest in martial arts. They will become the best in this field. They have the opportunity to become managers or coaches here. There are members of our team participating in the assessment today. I will take you to see them." Fuxi's eyes flashed with excitement, and he nodded: "Okay!" The two walked into the arena, walked through a long corridor, and arrived at a wide venue. There are several square arenas with an area of ​​several hundred square meters in the center of the venue, surrounded by rows of stands. Many people are already sitting in the stands, and the atmosphere is warm.

 

Xingyun led Fuxi to the stands in front of a ring and motioned for him to sit down. Xingyun whispered: "Do you still remember Xiaohu at the party last night? Today is his assessment."

 

Fuxi recalled it, and the appearance of Xiaohu emerged in his mind - a tall and muscular man with obvious muscle lines, piercing eyes and dark skin. He nodded: "Is he the one with the strongest physique?"

 

Xingyun smiled and said, "That's right. Before he came here, he was a martial arts enthusiast in their old civilization and had an obsessive love for martial arts. After coming here, he still has a great interest in it."

 

Not long after, the referee took the lead in the ring and announced loudly to the crowd in the stands: "The next player to appear is the fifth-level warrior from the Naqi team - Xiaohu. He will challenge the sixth-level warrior - Canglang! Whether he can complete the challenge, we will wait and see! Players from both sides are invited to come on!"

 

Xingyun explained in a low voice on the side: "In the martial arts association, martial arts levels are divided into levels 1 to 9. Ordinary people are considered qualified as long as they reach level one. Whether to continue learning depends on personal wishes. For those who love martial arts, they will continue to work hard to improve and strive for promotion. This is also an honor that belongs exclusively to them."

 

 

As the referee finished speaking, the spotlight on the ring was cast on a corner of the ring. A huge figure with the head of a wolf and the body of a wolf slowly appeared, with steady steps and sharp eyes. The referee introduced: "The one who is stepping onto the ring now is our sixth-level warrior—Cang Lang!"

 

Then, the spotlight was cast on the other end of the ring. A figure with the head of a tiger and the body of a tiger appeared, even bigger than the wolf. The muscles were taut and the momentum was overwhelming. The referee continued to introduce: "Now on the stage is our challenger - the fifth-level warrior Xiaohu!"

 

Fuxi was so surprised when he saw this scene that he could barely close his mouth from ear to ear: "Is this the same little tiger as yesterday? Why did he transform after one night? What's going on?"

 

Nebula squinted his eyes and smiled, explaining: "He didn't transform, he just changed his body temporarily. Here, we can choose to parasitize on different hosts according to different situations.

 

For example, just like in old civilization, suppose our body is a person and the host is a car. A person can own many cars, and you can choose different models according to your needs. This is a truth. "

 

 

Fuxi nodded as if understanding: "So that's it. Then why do they need to change their bodies to compete?"

 

Nebula continued to explain: "Our current body is built based on our original genes. It has the same senses as before, allowing us to feel the world better. But relatively speaking, this body is still relatively fragile and is not suitable for martial arts competitions.

 

In the field of martial arts, many other different hosts have been prepared, and these hosts have super endurance, do not need to eat, can receive various energies in the universe to maintain power, and have super self-healing abilities.

 

Most of these hosts are animal-shaped, so they are called "beast bodies".

 

Different hosts have different characteristics. For example, the wolf-headed host controlled by Canglang has extremely high agility; while the tiger-headed host controlled by Xiaohu is mainly defensive and powerful. "

 

As he spoke, Nebula pointed in another direction. There is a row of devices similar to sleeping chambers there. Through the transparent hatch, you can see Xiaohu's original body lying quietly inside, motionless.

 

 

Nebula explained: "That is the spirit body conversion device, which allows our spirit body to enter the body of another host from one host. After the spirit body leaves the host, the host will enter an unconscious state, like a plant, and will not be reawakened until our spirit body returns to the body."

 

The perspective returns to the arena. The battle between Xiaohu and Canglang has entered a fierce stage. On the ring, the two figures were like two bolts of lightning, fast and sharp, with thunderous momentum between their fists and feet. Every collision was accompanied by a dull sound, as if the air was torn apart by their strength,

 

Xiaohu's tiger-headed host has a tall body and gnarled muscles, and each punch carries a devastating power. His fist was like a heavy hammer, hitting the wolf hard, and the wind roared from the fist. Canglang's wolf-headed host is known for its agility and has a ghostly figure. It nimbly dodges the tiger's attacks and counterattacks with lightning speed. His claws were like sharp blades. Every time he waved, he brought out a burst of cold light, hitting the tiger's vitals.

 

The pace of the battle between the two was extremely fast, almost dizzying. Xiaohu hit Canglang with a powerful and heavy punch directly on the chest, but Canglang sidestepped in an instant, and used his backhand claw to slash towards Xiaohu's side. Xiaohu's reaction was not slow either. He quickly retracted his abdomen and barely avoided the blow.

 

 

"Bang!" There was another fierce collision, the tiger's fist and the wolf's claws clashed head-on, making a loud noise. The strength of the two people exploded in an instant. The little tiger's eyes widened, and there was a flash of fierceness in his eyes. He suddenly exerted force and forced the wolf back a few steps. A hint of coldness flashed in Cang Lang's wolf eyes, and with a flash of his body, he once again approached Xiaohu at a very fast speed, and swept straight to Xiaohu's lower body with a sweep.

 

Xiaohu roared, jumped up suddenly, avoided the wolf's attack, and at the same time kicked the wolf's head hard with a whirlwind leg in the air. Canglang quickly raised his hand to block, but Xiaohu's power was too strong. Canglang was shocked by the kick and almost lost his balance.

 

The battle between the two became more and more intense, and their bodies gradually became scarred in the constant confrontation. The body of Xiaohu's tiger-headed host was already covered with claw marks, but his eyes remained firm and did not flinch at all. Canglang's wolf-headed host was no less generous. There were several obvious punch marks on his chest and shoulders. He was obviously hit by Xiaohu's heavy punch, but his movements were still agile and not affected by the injury at all.

 

Fuxi was frightened when he saw it, and couldn't help but ask: "Are all competitions so fierce? Will there be any accidents?"

 

 

Nebula shook his head and said calmly: "The final result depends on who falls first. But don't worry, there will be no real casualties here. The host they control can make them feel pain, but there is no danger. Even if the host body is annihilated, their spirit body itself will not be harmed, and they can just return to their original body.

 

And these hosts prepared for the competition have extremely strong self-healing abilities. After the competition is over, they will return to the training warehouse and return to their original appearance in a short time. "

 

Fuxi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "I see, no wonder they attack each other unscrupulously."

 

After several more rounds of fierce confrontation, Xiaohu was finally defeated and fell to the ground. The referee announced the result of the game, and then someone carried Xiaohu, who had fallen to the ground, to the soul conversion cabin. Not long after, the transformation of the spirit body was completed, and Xiaohu, who had been sleeping, woke up from the transformation cabin and walked out, full of energy.

 

Fuxi followed Xingyun to greet him.

 

Xingyun patted Xiaohu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It was a very exciting game. I almost won. I have been practicing a lot recently."

 

 

Xiaohu shook his head, with a helpless smile on his face: "It's not that easy. Your skills are not as good as others. You still need to keep working hard."

 

He turned to look at Fuxi and said with a smile: "Fuxi, you are here too, I made you laugh."

 

Fuxi waved his hands quickly and said in a sincere tone: "No, no, this is the most powerful martial arts competition I have ever seen. It's so exciting!"

 

Xiaohu laughed and patted Fuxi on the shoulder: "If I have a chance in the future, I'll teach you a few tricks!"

 

Fuxi's eyes flashed with anticipation, and he nodded: "That would be great!"

 

At this time, a strange man walked towards them. Xiaohu stepped forward to greet him and greeted him respectfully: "Brother Wolf!"

 

 

The person who came was none other than Canglang, who had just competed with Xiaohu. Canglang smiled and said, "Not bad. I have made rapid progress recently. At this rate, I will be able to level up soon."

 

Xiaohu said: "Thank you very much. Let me introduce you. This is the new partner of our team, Fuxi." Xiaohu put his arm on Fuxi's shoulder and introduced him.

 

Fuxi nodded politely and responded.

 

Canglang smiled and said, "It's nice to meet you. My name is Canglang. Everyone is a friend here. I've been here longer than you, and I'm considered an old-timer. You can also call me Brother Lang like them. If you need any help in the future, just ask."

 

Fuxi smiled and said: "Thank you Brother Lang for taking care of me. I will ask you for more advice when I have the opportunity in the future. I hope you will give me your advice."

 

Cang Lang: "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Well, I have other things to do, so I'll take the first step." Cang Lang left first.

 

Fuxi couldn't help but sigh: "One second we were fighting in the ring, and the next second we were in the audience, but we were like close friends. This place is really magical."

 

 

Xiaohu said with a smile: "In the ring, trying your best is a sign of respect for your opponent, because we all know that no matter what, we will not substantially hurt the opponent, so we can naturally let go.

 

Here, no matter which interest association, seniors and newcomers can get along well. The main reason is that here is not like the primary civilization, where everything is related to interests.

 

Furthermore, values ​​are different. The value of a person is not reflected in how good the individual is, but in how many people you can help become better. Under the inheritance of such a system, people can naturally coexist harmoniously. "

 

Nebula: "Fuxi, you will slowly find out later that this planet is far better than your previous planet. No matter the people, things, or objects, they are all impeccable. Let's go back."

 

 

Fuxi nodded in response.

 

A little popular knowledge about Fuxi:

The 'beast body' is a life form that is genetically cultivated and has no self-consciousness. It needs the parasitism of the soul body and is driven by conscious control. Its physical indicators are strong and not suitable for daily life. It mainly serves various mission requirements in the interstellar world.

Through the soul conversion device, the body host is simulated to enter a state of cardiopulmonary arrest, and the soul body automatically peels off the host, and then parasitizes it on the beast body to control it.

Beast bodies exist in various non-human gods in the legends left by different groups and different periods in the history of the earth.

Next chapter: Set off to the earth, analyze the traveling method and principle of space jump, and propose for the first time the third form of the 'space gap' under different space pressures.
