A Show of Might

The scene was very quiet.

The host exclaimed in astonishment, "Legend has it that after humans entered the Gemini Metaverse, they continued to live as 'consciousness entities.' Under certain circumstances, the ' Higher Self ' in the human brain would become a tangible existence. In other words, a very, very small percentage of people in the Gemini Metaverse awakened their ' Higher Self ' and gained unimaginable power!"

"Hehe."

"Yes."

Zhan Shi gently swirled the wine in his glass. "But the probability is probably one in six hundred million! Based on this data, the number of ' Higher Self ' individuals in various countries is at most in the single digits!"

Inside the China Observation Room.

Han Ming frowned deeply. "Zhan Shi has gone mad. There's an international consensus that information of this level shouldn't be made public!"

Zhan Shi remained completely relaxed, stating without any hesitation. "One of the most crucial indicators of 'awakening' the Higher Self, the mountain that has blocked the path for millions... is that the Fusion Rate must exceed 100%!"

"There are too many people; you could say almost everyone, even if they spent their entire lives, couldn't reach a 50% Fusion Rate."

"On the battlefield just now, there were the most outstanding geniuses, elites, and national treasures from various countries... but their average Fusion Rate was only 87.9%."

"They are already very good."

"Because the higher the Fusion Rate, the slower the acquisition becomes. It requires living in the Metaverse for a very long time, anywhere from ten to a hundred years... and it can't be an 'ordinary' life."

At this point, a strange look appeared on Zhan Shi's face. "I've received information that the ' Higher Self's ' in various countries are scattered and hiding in different corners of the world, and no one has arrived at the scene."

"As for the athletes from each country..."

"This competition is hailed as the beginning of a new era, therefore the participants are limited to those under 20 years old."

"At such a young age, with such limited experience, not a single contestant could awaken their ' Higher Self '!"

But Zhan Shi's smile suddenly turned somber. "But our Ou Country players are different."

The host tried his best to suppress his shock and avoid showing too much horror on his face, "Among your contestants... there's a ' Higher Self '?!"

Buzz...

The alloy door to the Ou Country military training area slowly opened.

Twenty-nine young Ou Country athletes stood inside the alloy gate, lined up in perfect unison. Their postures, even their eyes and expressions, were exactly the same.

They all stepped forward in unison, all with their left foot, at the exact same angle and distance, and with the same range of arm swings.

They maintained a triangular formation and slowly walked to the edge of the field. Without anyone giving Passphrase, they stopped in unison.

These young Ou Country were all wearing white crew-neck short-sleeved shirts and camouflage military trousers, and even their faces looked somewhat similar.

At first glance, they look like a well-trained Boy Scouts.

I don't know why.

The Ou Country teams gave the audience a completely different feeling, but it was hard to pinpoint exactly what the difference was.

"In a sense, each of them awakened a ' Higher Self.'"

"That's an exaggeration."

With a smile, Zhan Shi announced, "The Ou Country ' WEDF Consciousness Ferrying Technology ' will be showcased to the world for the first time today! My 29 team members have already achieved ' Different-Brain Synchronization ' through past training. Their consciousnesses can merge into one at any time, instantly pushing their overall Fusion Rate beyond 100% to 107%, thus..."

Zhan Shi's smile grew even more arrogant, "In short, activate a shared ' Higher Self '!"

In that very instant.

Behind the 29 Ou Country, blue codes floated up simultaneously. These codes were complex and precise, intertwining in the air and, like some kind of jigsaw puzzle, constantly combining to form a giant human figure.

Ultimately, this code transformed from virtual to real in an instant.

A giant human figure, 30 meters tall, was formed. The figure's entire body was bright blue, and its appearance was extremely similar to that of the 29 Ou Country members. It was wearing a round-neck short-sleeved shirt and camouflage military pants, with a blue sheen on its face and bright blue light shining in its eyes!

An incredibly powerful aura swept across the entire venue.

Everyone felt a strange tingling sensation throughout their bodies.

The virtual bodies of the audience members were also subtly trembling.

But most of the audience were stunned by the scene before them—"I never thought I'd see a real ' Higher Self ' in my lifetime, it was all worth it!"

Is this what the "Higher Self" is?

The host's eyes widened. "Just like the rumors said, there was blue code that separated from its owner, gathered in mid-air, and combined to form a figure over ten meters tall, floating in mid-air!"

"Hehe."

"It's not your ordinary ' Higher Self '."

Zhan Shi was now in high spirits. "It possesses the combined strengths of all 29 team members. Its speed, strength, defense, and special attack methods have all been enhanced countless times, reaching a level unimaginable to humans!"

"Although my team is the only successful product of our 'artificial Higher Self,' it is precious and irreplaceable."

"If it is damaged, I will pay a heavy price."

"But I'm absolutely certain that this operation carries no risk whatsoever!"

Zhan Shi gritted his teeth slightly, "In recent years, our Ou Country has indeed been crushed by China, the birthplace of the Gemini Metaverse, in terms of technology, warfare, and resources."

"But in the study of human consciousness and the ' Higher Self,' our Ou Country is absolutely leading!"

"Therefore, on this day that everyone is watching with great anticipation, I must unveil it and eliminate all enemies!"

"Let's make a great start to help Ou Country regain its global dominance!"

"I want the whole world to know that in the Future, my Ou Country can mass-produce 'artificial ' Higher Self '. With just 29 people per group, I will obtain countless ' Higher Self '!"

"They're all under 20 years old!"

at this time.

Han Ming felt a chill run down his spine. "No wonder he spoke so recklessly! Their research on the ' Higher Self ' has reached such a level that previously top-secret information has become insignificant in the past!"

Long Huicheng trembled as he said, "A ' Higher Self ' who can participate in the competition, that Qin Yiguan, he..."

"I'm the only one from Ou Country who ' Higher Self ' in the entire stadium!"

"Fusion Rate 107%!"

Zhan Shi roared excitedly, "The gap between the ' Higher Self ' and ordinary people is a chasm, an insurmountable chasm! Qin Yiguan, the contestant from China! Your Fusion Rate may be 98%, or it may be 99%! The data is the highest I've ever seen, but so what?! So what if you have endless tricks up your sleeve? So what if you can mimic Satan? Those tricks are like mud in a child's hands in front of the true ' Higher Self '! You stop here!"

He cannot shake the very foundations of my Ou Country!

"Viewers all over the world, open your eyes wide and watch carefully!"

Zhan Shi waved his hand dismissively, "The Ou Country team is entering the field; there's no need to worry about the consequences!"

But then the Ou Country team suddenly began to march in unison.

Above the triangular formation, the enormous 30-meter-tall figure moved slowly forward.

They stepped onto the white fluorescent line at the edge of the field.

This means the battle has begun!

Inside the China Observation Room.

Han Ming plopped down in a chair, lost in thought, and said, "There are nine ' Higher Self ' recorded in China. House is of mixed race but also China citizen, so he counts as one. There's also Mu Qingkuang, and that elusive Jiang Mingshu, and the military codenamed Bei Rakshasa... They're all over 20 years old. We don't have any ' Higher Self ' under 20 in China... I've spent a lot of time and effort searching and verifying this, and I'm very certain of it."

Long Huicheng's eyes widened. "That means Qin Yiguan... he's still on the field...!"

In the center of the field.

"Little Qin Beast..."

"Little Qin Beast!"

Jiu Zhengxuan's call came from afar.

Just as Qin Yiguan was about to swiftly and decisively wipe out the Ou Country team, he slowly turned around, frowning, and said, "You little trash, what are you doing?!"

Jiu Zhengxuan sighed slightly and said with pursed lips, "Do me a favor, give China some face, and use your strength to enhance China's national prestige."

Qin Yiguan sighed slowly, "All this useless stuff is a waste of my time!"

"What is that?!"

"What is that?!"

The host's exclamation drew the attention of hundreds of millions of viewers.

But then the host, standing on the platform, pointed tremblingly in another direction of the venue.

"There's blue code, separated from its owner..."

"They converged in mid-air, forming figures tens to hundreds of meters tall, floating in mid-air!"

The host's voice began to tremble, "China contestant Qin Yiguan also has ' Higher Self '!"

All that could be seen was an overwhelming expanse of blue code, endless and vast, like a mighty storm, swirling wildly around Qin Yiguan and sweeping across the entire sky!

Bite!

The "Infinity" Black Calamity has been materialized.

Bite!

The "Infinity" Child has been brought to life.

Bite!

The "Infinity" Boundless One has been materialized.

Bite!

The "Infinity" Plunderer have been materialized.

Bite!

The "Infinity" Dream General be brought to life.

Bite!

The "Infinity" Slaughterer has been materialized.

Six enormous figures, each a hundred meters tall and of different shapes, took shape behind Qin Yiguan, lined up in a row, almost occupying the eastern sky. Their imposing presence was indescribable!

But they weren't blue; they were all pitch black!

The visual impact it created instantly shattered the worldviews of everyone present!

The terror, bloodshed, murderous intent, and profound sense of mystery it evoked permeated the entire venue.

The hairs on everyone's body stood on end instantly!

This indescribable aura of extreme power spread throughout the world via the internet!

Beneath the six "Infinity".

Qin Yiguan slowly turned around and looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "Are you satisfied now?"
