Summoning from Another World: Starting with the Great Han Chess Master's Reduction of the Feuda
Chapter 16 The Military Strategist, the Mythical Giant, the Balance Will Be Opened
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained Wu Qi, the second sage of military strategy.]
Wu Qi: Command 104, Strength 86, Politics 101, Intelligence 97.
Implanted identity: A disciple of Mingde Academy, a friend of Gao Jiong, who received a letter from Gao Jiong during a visit to relatives, and thus came to seek refuge with him.
Having defeated the strategist of the Second Sage of Military Strategy, Liu Xiao thought to himself, "The reforms of Jibei and Jinan Circuits are about to begin."
"System, use another God-level Talent Summoning Card, focusing on martial prowess." Liu Xiao pondered for a moment and decided to perform a martial prowess summon. Neither Ji Huangxi, the Divine Halberd of Jibei (level 107), nor Li Han, the Mighty General of Kaishan (level 106), were ranked high on the Nine Provinces Dragon and Tiger Ranking.
The Nine Provinces Dragon and Tiger List is a collaborative work by renowned authors and novelists. It is divided into four lists: A, B, C, and D. List A has 9 people, List B has 18 people, List C has 36 people, and List D has 72 people, for a total of 135 people.
Ji Huangxi and Li Han were both on this list, with Ji Huangxi ranking twenty-sixth and Li Han ranking forty-eighth.
In contrast, regarding the imperial court and King You, Liu Xiaohan, the God of War of Lingxiao, ranks seventh on the top list, while Liu Digong, the God of Arrows Who Can Hold the Sky, has long held the eleventh position on the second list. On King You's side, Yan Bu, known as the God of Flame Who Burns the World, has consistently ranked second on the second list.
[Ding! Summoning a god-level martial arts talent.]
[Ding! First person, Optimus Prime, Atlas, Strength 107.]
Atlas is one of the most famous Titans in Greek mythology. His father was Iapetus, one of the twelve Titans who was in charge of speech and represented the western pillar. His brother was the famous prophet Prometheus and Epimetheus, the husband of Pandora.
Atlas participated in the Titanomachy, but he and his brother Prometheus made the opposite choice, standing against Zeus. After their defeat, Atlas was punished by Zeus and forced to carry the heavens.
Atlas also played a role in the twelve trials of Hercules. Guided by Prometheus, Hercules traveled northwest to find his father, Atlas, the guardian of the Golden Apple Garden. The two worked together to deceive the goddesses and kill the dragon Ladon, but were ultimately tricked by Hercules into continuing to hold up the heavens.
[The second person, the water-controlling giant, Qin Honghai, with a strength of 107.]
The giant roared, supporting two mountains, and the surging waves shot into the East Sea.
The prototype of Qin Honghai first appeared in Gan Bao's "In Search of the Supernatural" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it became widely circulated in the Tang Dynasty.
Whether it's the legend of the chaos of heaven and earth or the legend of the Queen Mother of the West causing a flood by pouring out nectar at the Peach Banquet, the giant spirit has always appeared as someone who splits mountains and guides water.
Legend has it that Qin Honghai had a head shaped like a bamboo basket, eyes like copper bells, hair standing on end, and a waist ten spans wide. He appeared clumsy but was agile in action.
During his flood control efforts, he supported Mount Hua with his left hand and kicked open the Zhongtiao Mountains with his right foot, splitting the mountains in two and causing the Yellow River to flow eastward. He left behind the image of a giant immortal's palm on the cliff face of the eastern peak of Mount Hua, and his footprints are still found at the foot of Shouyang Mountain. Emperor Wu of Han built a shrine to the giant immortal at the foot of Mount Hua in recognition of this, and during the Tang Dynasty, the magistrate of Huayin County proposed renaming Huayin County as Immortal Palm County.
[Third person, the Norse giant, Hrangnir, strength 106.]
As a giant in Norse mythology, he was born without a head and heart, and was later repaired by the giant race using stones.
Hrangnir was invited to Asgard after losing a horse race to Odin. He was drugged and threatened to kill the gods and abduct Freya, Sif, and other women.
Thor travels to Gryphonnagal to duel him, and the giants create the clay giant Mokulkafi as his aid. During the battle, Thor uses Mjolnir to shatter and kill Hrangnir's flint weapon, while the clay giant is defeated by Thor's servant Tialfi.
[The fourth person, the Philistine giant Goliath, strength 107.]
A pathetic mastermind in the Bible's murder mystery game, a stepping stone for King David.
Goliath, as the chief warrior of the Philistine army, led his troops against the Israelites. He possessed immense strength, wore a bronze helmet and armor, wielded a spear, and had a dedicated assistant to hold his shield. For forty consecutive days, he challenged the Israelites twice a day to one-on-one combat, but no one dared to accept. It wasn't until King David, then a shepherd boy, came to bring food to his three brothers in the army that Goliath's undefeated myth was finally brought to an end.
Goliath's death was both incredibly frustrating and laughable. This invincible giant was merely struck down by a stone thrown by King David as he ran. As Goliath carelessly charged at David with his sword, a stone struck Goliath in the forehead, causing him to faint. David then used Goliath's own sword to cut off his head, causing the Philistine army to collapse. The Israelite army won the war in this dramatic manner.
In Western history, the story of King David defeating Goliath has been passed down as an allegory of courage overcoming brute force, civilization overcoming barbarity, and faith overcoming arrogance.
[Fifth person, Guardian of the Holy Mountain, Sviatogor, Strength 107.]
If the sky had rings, it could pull the sky down; if the earth had pillars, it could lift the earth up. This is how the ancient Slavic epic, "The Song of the Warriors," describes him.
As the Kievan Rus' version of Li Yuanba, and one of the three great heroes of the old era in the style of Hercules, Sviatogor has different identities in different versions.
In the Slavic mythological system of three realms, Sviatogor is the son of the chief god Rhodes. His mission is to guard the world of Avi and prevent the evil spirits of the world of Navi from invading. He was once tricked by Mikula into carrying a "bag containing the weight of the world" and was pressed into the ground. He was also tricked by the shepherd god Veles into lifting a black boulder, which transformed him into the sacred mountain of Ararat. Both of these misfortunes stemmed from his extreme trust in his own power, even to the point of arrogance.
But this does not mean that Sviatogor was weak; another hero, Ilya, did not even have the strength to close the tomb door for this giant.
The system should remove Goliath and Hrangnir, and summon from the remaining Atlas, Qin Honghai, and Sviatogor. Liu Xiao was still somewhat dissatisfied with this summoning; there wasn't even a 108. A mid-tier god general is fine, though; even in today's world, they are strong enough to be ranked among the top.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the water-controlling giant, Qin Honghai.]
Qin Honghai: Command 68, Martial Prowess 107, Politics 61, Intelligence 62.
Implanted identity: A warrior recruited by the host in the mountains and forests, now residing in the Ji King's mansion. Not bad, a fierce general skilled in both naval and land warfare.
[Ding! The host has used two God-level Talent Summoning Cards, increasing the balance value by 90%, bringing the current balance value to 120%.] Since the last system upgrade, the balance value of the God-level Talent Tempering Card has decreased by 5%, and the balance value of the Heaven-level Talent Summoning Card has decreased by 3%. Currently, the balance values of the two summoning cards are 45% and 27% respectively.
[Ding! Balance value has reached 100%. Balance operation begins.]
Liu Xiao has begun to try to accept the system's balancing. Each time it balances, he can almost obtain a quasi-god-level talent. He also needs the balanced figures to disrupt the world's situation so that he can better profit from the chaos.
[Ding! Liu, the number one balance master...]
