I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World - Chapter 504
Chapter 504: Chapter 331: Forgot It Was a Competition !
Harrison Clark wished he could burst into laughter.
Having personally experienced and challenged familiar enemies in simulated combat, he could truly appreciate the remarkable performance of the Galaxy Battle Suit, and intuitively feel the changes brought about by technological innovation.
Although it was just a simulation, it was based on reality, and the Starry Architecture’s operating main brain was highly valuable for reference purposes, far better than the previous conventional training simulators.
Harrison Clark could be sure of one thing.
In eleven months, he would be even stronger than he is in the simulated state now!
Currently, he was wearing the standard equipment distributed by the military, without any personal customization or enhancements.
If everything goes as planned, in eleven months, his Galaxy Battle Suit will only be stronger!
How good would it beifhehadhad the Galaxy Battle Suit last time.
At this moment, the vast majority of spectators were still focusing their attention on Needham Brown.
As expected from a top-level powerhouse, he took the same amount of time as Harrison Clark but easily killed fifty-three opponents.
Needham Brown with his 37.66% gene awakening was indeed formidable.
Going further is always the hardest thing to do.
According to common sense, humans can only master technology that allows for gene awakening to exceed 35% after venturing out of the Solar System, discovering more resources in the universe, breaking through more mathematical mysteries, decoding more physical phenomena, mastering more energy utilization methods, conducting more experiments, witnessing more cosmic basic rules that do not exist within the Solar System, greatly expanding their horizons, exploring the universe, and delving into biology. Only then, through countless attempts and failures and summarizing countless experiences, can they achieve such a breakthrough and sublimate the species.
Galactic humans with gene awakenings beyond 35% should not have appeared in such a small Solar System.
Individual sublimation may be a coincidence, but group sublimation can be considered almost an aberration in the universe.
Nowadays, the appearance of so many Galactic humans in advance completely contradicts the universal order.
In addition to Harrison Clark’s contributions, the importance of brainwave synchronization resonance training is self-evident.
Brainwave synchronization resonance training technology is the highest level of current technological achievement, but its inherent limitations still remain obvious.
Numerous practices have proven that resonance training can only support the awakening of ordinary people to between 34.5-35%. Those with exceptional talent can exceed 35%, and one in several hundred thousand geniuses can break through 36%.
Out of billions of humans, only Needham Brown and Bainesta have emerged as extraordinary talents who broke through 37%.
As the awakening level of the users gets higher and higher, the effect of each training session will inevitably become worse, and the bottleneck period will appear more frequently, eventually getting stuck at a certain desperate threshold.
Major scholars of various disciplines have reached a consensus that the theoretical threshold for ordinary people to increase their awakening level with the help of resonance training is 37%.
Breaking through one’s limit is difficult beyond imagination, but the benefits are also evident. As the awakening level gets higher and higher, the brain becomes more active, the brainwave commands become more perfect, and the gap in control level brought about by a slight difference in awakening levels becomes even greater.
For example, the battlefield response improvement obtained from increasing from 37% to 371% is equivalent to the 1% increase from 34% to 35%, and the difference cannot be measured rationally.
Perhaps even the most knowledgeable military science researchers today cannot estimate Needham Brown’s true combat potential.
Now, Needham Brown was boldly showcasing his capabilities.
Those who chose to link and observe him were experiencing a rare feast of top- level performance.
So this is how true top-level powerhouses fight?
Every detail is flawless and perfect.
The high-speed running of the brain, and the intense movement of the body, show no signs of disconnection, but are perfectly coordinated and seamlessly harmonious.
The not-exactly-a-weakness weaknesses exposed by the Eight-legged Beetles were easily grasped by Needham Brown and rapidly turned into victories.
The standard equipment was not his usual choice, but his performance was still astonishing.
But this was definitely not his full power yet.
Watching Needham Brown’s performance was a great experience, but it also brought enormous pressure.
Gradually, more and more Galaxy Warriors could not bear the feedback transmitted through their mental link and had to be ejected by the protective mode, resorting to an ordinary first-person perspective to watch the ongoing fights.
That was probably the realm of the truly powerful. Even with at least 80% of the pain feedback suppressed, it was still unbearable for the spectators.
Needham Brown’s personal prestige was quietly rising once again.
Finally, ten minutes into the contest, Needham Brown glanced at his staggering 133 kills and was somewhat satisfied.
By now, quite a few contestants had unfortunately “perished,” and the elimination rate reached as high as 90%.
At this point, the electronic voice of the Starry Architecture chimed in, “Friendly reminder, there are 4756127 participants remaining. Updating realtime kill rankings, equipment damage rankings, and energy remaining rankings starting now.”
As the voice fell, many contestants’ battle armor helmets displayed a small ranking list in the upper left corner, which was quite eye-catching.
Mr. Green smiled and said, “The previous selection contests didn’t have the treatment of the Starry Architecture. Major General Nora Camp is indeed popular, and there are many participants. This ranking list has some meaning.” Nora Camp just smiled indifferently without responding.
Mr. Green didn’t take offense.
In the presence of others, Nora Camp had always been aloof when not discussing serious matters.
She was not bad at socializing, she was just too lazy to socialize.
The ranking list made it convenient for some people to keep an eye on Harrison Clark’s performance.
As Needham Brown casually sliced another Eight-legged Beetle while looking at the ranking list, he felt confident.
Without a doubt, the first place in all three ranking lists would be…
Kill Rankings: Needham Brown (134), Harrison Clark (77), Levi Martin (71)…
Equipment Damage Rankings: Harrison Clark (0.11%), Needham Brown (0.13%), Oliver Yeoman (1.5%)…
Energy Remaining Rankings: Harrison Clark (94.11%), Needham Brown (92.73%), Vincent Doyle (87.31%)…
What?!
Needham Brown’s head was spinning.
It was obvious that he had a commanding lead on the kill ranking list.
But what was going on with the last two lists?!
Was Harrison Clark trying to turn the world upside down?Needham Brown didn’t understand what happened, but he was not happy.
He was extremely competitive and always wanted to come out on top in every situation.
He couldn’t tolerate being inferior to someone with an awakening degree of only 36.36%, even if it was just some insignificant parameters.
Although the essence of fighting was just to win, Needham Brown demanded himself to win beautifully.
He began to go all out.
Meanwhile, Harrison Clark didn’t even bother to look at the leaderboard.
It wasn’t that he didn’t care about winning or losing; he just forgot.
Blame it on the Starry Architecture’s simulation being too realistic, and the fact that he’d traveled between “dream” and “reality” too many times; after immersing himself in the intense battle, he even forgot the meaning of this simulated combat.
He also forgot that this was just a simulation, not reality.
He had long been blinded by hatred, while at the same time, completely addicted to the thrill of slaughtering his once unbeatable enemies in his new gear.
Intense!
So intense!
I’ve been waiting for this day for eight thousand years!
Time flew by, and forty-three minutes passed.
Needham Brown was the first to complete a thousand kills.
When he looked at the leaderboard again, it had changed.
Kill Rankings: Needham Brown (1000), Harrison Clark (366), Levi Martin (271)…
Armor Damage Rankings: Needham Brown (2.13%), Harrison Clark (2.15%), Oliver Yeoman (7.5%)…
Energy Rankings: Harrison Clark (73.31%), Needham Brown (71.08%), Levi Martin (57.62%)…
Needham Brown’s eyes widened in disbelief.
He did some calculations in his mind.
It seemed that Harrison Clark’s killing speed hadn’t slowed down with the passage of time, but had actually increased since the beginning.
This showed that Harrison Clark didn’t become dull and numb in the slaughter, but rather grew more and more adapted!
Harrison Clark also widened the gap between himself and the third-ranked Levi Martin.
However, Levi Martin’s awakening degree was much higher than his!
Indeed, as Needham Brown guessed, Harrison Clark had a good understanding of the abilities of the Eight-legged Beetles, but this was his first time simulating real combat with the Galaxy Equipment.
Harrison Clark didn’t need to adapt to his enemies but to his own gear.
Although his control proficiency was as high as too, snap decisions in real combat always required some experience.
Needham Brown wondered about Harrison Clark’s energy control.
Although Needham Brown had more kills, which meant he had more attacks, his consumption in maneuvering should be less.
Within the same time frame, Needham Brown didn’t think his energy consumption could be higher than Harrison Clark’s, let alone this much higher.
Moreover, their armor damage rates were extremely close, which was totally unreasonable.
The difference in their awakening degrees was as high as 1.3%.
Not to mention Needham Brown’s confusion, other people were even more confused.
Despite the significant difference in awakening degrees of the two, the control level they demonstrated was almost indistinguishable, and Harrison Clark’s control ability might be even stronger.
Needham Brown’s faster killing speed was simply because his brain could issue more commands at the same time, and he could squeeze more performance out of his gear.
After Needham Brown stopped, most spectators turned their connection back to Harrison Clark.
Not only that, but Needham Brown himself also applied to join Harrison Clark’s connection through Starry Architecture.
These people suddenly understood the nuance.
If Needham Brown represented the ultimate in individual strength, then Harrison Clark might represent the ultimate in mining one’s current strength.
For example, other people with an awakening degree of 36.36% had been eliminated, but Harrison Clark was steadily completing kills step by step.
His fighting style was simple and effective.
He hardly wasted any energy and never put himself in danger.
He had pushed the performance of his gear and his own abilities to the absolute limit.
At the same time, his understanding of the Eight-legged Beetles was deeper than most others, far exceeding even some experienced Galaxy Warriors who had trained in simulated combat.
Somehow, some of Needham Brown’s admirers gradually changed their idol.
Compared to the lofty 37.66% awakening degree, the 36.36% Harrison Clark seemed more worth learning from.
Many people’s awakening degrees were completely locked and couldn’t be improved any further.
These people believed that they had reached their limits and could only maintain their current level no matter how hard they trained.
Now these people realized their naivete.
It turns out we can still become stronger?
Like this?
Our gear’s potential is far from being fully exploited?
Our brain’s branching commands can be used like this?
It turns out that the terrifying Eight-legged Beetles in the imaginary enemies have so many flaws and weaknesses?
If I could operate like Harrison Clark, then in the future battlefield, the role I could play would be at least equivalent to three of me now!
The consciousness of the warriors drifting in the Quantum Network space gradually boiled over.
