Real Supernatural Combat-Can Your Reactions Keep Up?

Everyone was stunned.

Just a moment ago, they were reading a traditional martial arts novel, where every move was clearly distinguishable to the naked eye.

However, the next moment, someone suddenly told them that it was now the era of cultivation, and that lightning flashed by, completely beyond the range of their naked eyes.

"Put down our elder!" a villager shouted, still confused about the situation.

However, the village elders who understood the dangers, including the Fat White Elder, were well aware of the implications.

"Second Elder, can you handle this?"

"I can't handle it. I'm just a medicine maker, old and blind, I can only use a little poison."

"Third Elder?"

"I'm just a paper maker. I can make do with flicking a talisman, but if I can't touch the other person, it won't work."

The elders passed the buck to each other, none of them wanting to step forward.

They knew the consequences; if they went forward, they would suffer the same fate.

They simply couldn't react.

This is normal; Gao Linzhi's physical attribute is currently as high as 795 points.

In simulated computer games, to accommodate human reaction speed, it's necessary to limit the speed of character movements and the frame rate so that the human eye can clearly see what the game character is doing.

As a result, the character panel attributes are essentially like playing a Dou Dizhu, comparing sizes, and don't actually reflect anything.

In the real world, the average person's maximum reaction time is only 0.1 seconds. That is to say, upon hearing a gunshot, it takes at least 0.1 seconds to react, and for most people it is 0.2 seconds.

This reaction is actually very slow.

Gao Linzhi is now playing a realistic game; his physical attributes will determine his actual speed.

If your physique can't keep up with two-thirds of his speed, you'll be completely overwhelmed by his speed.

When Gao Linzhi attacked his opponent, the opponent was like a piece of wood on the court, being passed around without being able to react at all.

Upon seeing this, the Big Black Fatty's eyes widened.

He had been fantasizing about relying on numbers, focused fire, mage groups, positioning, and teamwork...

The Warrior-Mage-Priest trinity.

However, when real superhuman combat appeared before his eyes, all his fantasies shattered!

"Impossible, impossible, what just flew by?" he said to the person next to him.

"There were two people, I think, but I didn't see them clearly."

What should we do now?

"Quickly inform the head of the family, Steward Zhang," someone reminded him.

"Alright, alright, immediately inform the head of the family."

He immediately used a talisman, but then complained that it was too slow and logged off immediately.

Gao Linzhi didn't urge him; he knew that people are always slow to accept things.

Anyway, it's just a puppet left here; his real self is still at home doing his work.

Offline, within a large city.

Inside a low-key yet luxurious suburban villa.

"You can't keep up with their fighting speed at all?" an old man asked in bewilderment.

"Yes, to make an analogy, it's like modern fighter jets fighting against ancient cavalry. No matter how skilled the cavalry, how accurate their shooting, or how excellent their horses, they are helpless against fighter jets." The Big Black Fatty said with a helpless expression.

"Is there really such a big difference? We're all players, do you even care about game balance anymore?" The old man clearly understood games, or rather, he was forced to understand them.

"The gap is even bigger than that. To be more accurate, we're still in the fighting mode of elementary school Ultraman, while the other side is already a spaceship Gundam," the Big Black Fatty said helplessly.

"I understand, so you're saying we have no choice but to compromise, right?"

"Yes, the gap between the two sides is too big. I didn't believe it before either, always thinking that by having more people and more cannon fodder, we could overwhelm the experts. Now it seems that it's completely meaningless."

"The two sides are like medieval serf soldiers fighting against a modern aircraft carrier battle group, or even worse. This game is a realistic game, and the game developers will accurately reflect the differences on the panel. Unlike ordinary games, where there is a huge difference in attack and defense between a character with 5000 constitution and a character with 5 constitution, the attack frequency and attack speed are still within the range that the human eye can clearly see."

The Big Black Fatty explained a lot, and the old man sighed.

He exhaled, frowning deeply, and said, "It seems that the strategy of building up a team of experts was the right one."

"But the problem is, how can we ensure that this expert won't turn against us?"

The Big Black Fatty dared not offer any suggestions.

The old man began to mutter to himself:

"If it were my son... no way."

"Not even my daughter."

"A son-in-law is even less suitable."

"I'm already 80 years old, do you expect me to learn those dazzling, colorful games again?"

The Big Black Fatty thought to himself, "If you want to secure your position as head of the family, you really have to do it this way."

This is different from before.

In the past, one could rely on kinship, contracts, asset ownership, lawyers, bodyguards, etc., to bind agents, including their children.

Now, if they don't personally possess the abilities of a gaming master, their children, with a single charm spell, can easily subdue the old man.

Surely no one still thinks these wealthy families value family ties that much?

The scandals involving family assets and illegitimate children that surface every year have exposed the true colors of these old men.

He sighed and said, "Alright, I'll agree to their offer this time."

"Also, prepare a strategy for me that will allow me to catch up with them, and I need to be quick about it."

"Yes, sir," Steward Zhang quickly replied.

However, a thought also arose in his mind.

This old man is nothing special; he can be replaced.

When the Big Black Fatty logged back in, he witnessed a jaw-dropping scene.

The village elders had formed a huge formation.

Centered around several elders, they formed concentric rings, each connected by gray ripples beneath their feet.

"Is this a formation?"

He knew about the array Mage Profession, but it was rare.

This profession is equivalent to being a mathematician in the offline world, and you have to be a top-tier one.

In fact, each village ancestral hall is like a natural formation, capable of gathering the collective willpower of the people to resist the invasion of strange forces.

Strange, how could someone with Canxue have allowed the opponent to form this formation?

He then looked at the other person floating in the air, expressionless—he understood. This was to defeat the other person until they were completely convinced, so as not to cause trouble later.

Sure enough, the next moment, after the formation was complete, the Fat White Elder shouted into the air:

"You from the outer island, if you can break our Five Village Formation, then what you just said will stand!"

"If you can't break this, go back to where you came from, and we'll have nothing to do with each other!"

The Big Black Fatty, however, sensed a hint of bravado masking underlying weakness in his words.

Gao Linzhi calmly observed the formation below.

Indeed, he had just observed the opponent's formation and gradually set it up.

Although the opposing team was well-trained, it still took them a full ten minutes to get into this formation.

This is enough time for him to rush down and kill everyone.

The main reason is that no red alert was displayed on the Minimap.

In addition, he used two springboards, and he also wanted to accumulate more combat experience.

He had very little experience in dealing with formations.

Formations are often related to sealing, expelling, and protecting.

Offensive formations also exist.

As soon as the other party finished speaking, he immediately unleashed several large fireballs, Wind Blade, Rock Pillar, Wood Thorn... using all the basic Five Elements spells.

These spells rained down one by one, landing on the formation and creating a gray ripple before disappearing.

"It's blocked!"

"Very good!"

"Looks like he's nothing special." Some villagers suddenly became excited.

And at this time...

The elders in the formation didn't waste any words.

One of them also pulled out a green staff and fired a green smoke at Gao Linzhi in mid-air.

A large cloud of mist drifted over quickly.

However, this attack speed is too slow.

Of course, it's quite effective against bulky armored warriors.

However, against Gao Linzhi's physique of over 700, it was instantly no match.

He then moved his feet, and a sonic boom occurred.

The next moment, he slammed his fist hard into the formation.

"Bang!"

A loud noise echoed in all directions.

Many players watching nearby were immediately thrown off balance.

However, this also served as a wake-up call for some people.

"Damn, what a great business opportunity this is!" a Rogue Players hiding in the distance exclaimed involuntarily.

"Yeah, I forgot! We could have set up a text and screenshot update on the forum!"

"This game doesn't allow screenshots, many functions are incomplete, and there's no live streaming."

"Hehe, I thought of that a long time ago, so I learned the functions of sketching."

"No one will believe that."

"Only novices wouldn't believe it; experts would understand immediately. Some things can't be made up, and you can't draw them without seeing them with your own eyes."

"Yes, just like a caged bird can never understand the vastness of the sky."

Soon, several Rogue Players started logging in and out frequently, and began posting what they had witnessed on the player forum Archipelago.

In an instant, it became lively.

Of course, the posts soon became chargeable.

One gram of gold will be charged after browsing.

This price is too high.

"Shocking! The server's top player got into a fight over a sand dune!"

"A battle of formations versus individual combat—who will win and who will lose? Watch live!"

"Live text update at the risk of my life: The big boss has already launched two attacks, one physical and one magical, but the formation remains unscathed!"

Indeed, breaking this formation is very difficult.

Gao Linzhi unleashed over ten consecutive attacks.

Speed becomes ineffective if the opponent retracts into their shell beforehand.

Therefore, it is clear that there are no perfect attributes in the world, only perfect people.

Therefore, he always starts by charging up to the maximum power before unleashing his attack.

"Bang!"

He struck again and again, crashing fiercely into the formation, each impact creating ripples in the air.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. This formation connects heaven and earth. If we use the power of heaven and earth to fight against it, he can't break it. He'll just exhaust himself!" The Fat White Elder encouraged everyone.

Hearing this, everyone became very angry.

They thought they were doomed, but they never expected the other side to be so arrogant, even allowing them to set up their battle formation.

In this way, they will be able to hold their ground.

"Hold on firmly, and there's a way!" another elder encouraged.

"Yes, Elder!"

Gao Linzhi wanted to laugh.

Isn't the other party trying to connect with the power of heaven and earth?

Then he severed ties between heaven and earth with the other party.

The next moment, he quickly burrowed underground.

Then, use Advanced Burrowing and prospecting techniques to cut off the opponent's supply lines.

Sure enough, not long afterward, the villagers felt a rumbling sound beneath their feet.

The entire formation was also tilting.

"What's going on?!"

"Oh no! He's gone underground and is digging into the earth's veins!" a village elder exclaimed anxiously. "This formation relies on the earth's veins to exert its power; if the veins are disturbed, it will have to be reset."

"Then you should reset it right away!"

"No, this won't work! The prerequisite for resetting is that the ley lines are stable, and now he's messed them up!"

"Rough!"

At this moment, the Big Black Fatty was actually very happy.

"Hit them! Hit them hard!"

"It would be best to kill a few!"

After all, he had already received orders from the head of the family to compromise.

Of course, we don't want to see the villagers gain the upper hand.

Before long, the entire underground area was in complete chaos.

"Damn it, next time we should have used an aerial formation!"

"An aerial formation would be too costly."

Before long, the gray ripples connecting the villagers' feet suddenly shattered!

Then, one by one, the villagers were thrown into the air.

"Ah, ah!"

"Help!"

"I'm not playing anymore!"

In an instant, someone landed on the sand dune.

This triggered a bizarre trial in the Giant Dune.

Do you want to understand the meaning of life?

Do you want to truly live?

Good heavens, this is the Giant Dune that has absorbed the memories of the dead and evolved.

Gao Linzhi then emerged from underground.

"How is it?" he asked, glancing around.

"Master, we are willing to surrender..." The Fat White Elder had no choice but to kneel down and say.

"That's excellent." Gao Linzhi then arranged for the Puppet Best to set up a trading company base here and operate from here in the future.

The other person nodded.

At this very moment.

The forum is in an uproar.

"Holy crap, such a Powerful formation can withstand so many attacks from that powerful figure?"

"Damn, what a letdown! They didn't even think of underground protection. These ancient people were so inflexible!"

"Yeah, before they put it out there, why didn't they consider that someone could sabotage it from underground?"

"No, shouldn't you be shocked that this big shot even has underground methods?"

"Yes, that must be Advanced Burrowing technology, right? It caused the ground to collapse in such a short time; that's something most people can't do."

"Just how many skills has the other party learned? They seem to have every kind of skill imaginable."

"Damn, is this still a game?"

"I don't understand how they're fighting!"

"You still don't understand? Basically, it's one for attack and one for defense. If you understand, you understand; if you don't, you won't understand even if I explain it to you."

Those who were just watching the spectacle were enjoying the show, but those who were truly understanding were all deeply alarmed.

"This Canxue must have a constitution of over 500. I have a constitution of 400, and I still can't keep up with his reaction speed."

"That's a conservative estimate. This speed should be around a thousand. It seems that mages aren't as strong as we thought. Without increasing constitution, mages can't react in time and will get attacked as soon as they enter the battlefield, unless they put on a shield in advance, which means they have to keep the shield on 24 hours a day."

"Yeah, isn't this just like in ninja anime? You can get killed by accident."
