"...Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Sequence—you, or rather, the beauty with the gorgeous eyes, you’re not referring to me, are you? Nevertheless, you do possess a pair of beautiful eyes that suggest the next hint."
"What is this thing from the east?"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Just like gods and mortals, at six o’clock, I will keep you in a time loop; rest assured, I will. You only need to provide your willing offering to don on your body something of the like. You can certainly manage that, but if you’re just stalling for time... though that would be untenable, for this means you shall not be able to pay the necessary dues, and this opposing presence you face is utterly embodied with pure malevolence."
"—Old Plank is very close to feeling the fragment of the greedy offering, still honing his attentiveness in the white fog."
The interweaving of time within the reality seemed almost at a standstill... However, while the white fog was like a "Fish Chapter" in a bookstore, its offering was calling from a different time-space dimension.
It’s not that simple... especially when you’re dealing with such treacherous items with your bare hands; you may be fast, but this dimensional space is different. If you’re not careful, your very existence could be increased unimaginably since the offering will tempt you, and if you’re not vigilant, it may lead you to lose many important things.
Make sure you don’t sacrifice the wrong offering; Chu Qing, you must have already figured out what you want to give to my old pal’s ritual [without regrets].
—Erleipu’s eyes popped out another warning as he contemplated the white fog’s thoughts.
This offering seems quite unusual, not the regular kind.
]You’ll even get to see other functions beyond its own dimensions if you keep searching for those fragments. Hence, this is just a "dead Fish Chapter" that you’ve come across because the most appropriate disguise in your eyes is indeed a pawnshop run by Old Plank; naturally, there will be a pawnshop that you would encounter, which means you’re essentially undertaking some kind of loss due to the offerings you perceive. [
Each person uses similar fragments differently; you won’t see the people and sceneries that are familiar but a certain manifestation of your recognition will shape the power within the fragments.
Some special fragments actually possess a unique existence, like the love of a perfect and handsome Sequence 42 figure. [
—Erleipu found the explanation at that very moment.
It’s actually just that... something about this pawnshop resembles Old Plank.
You can only see such a pawnshop after time traveling within your own world.
"Oh? Who is this ’incomplete’ person? Let me have a look. Ultimately, has someone summoned a certain character, hahaha?"
Stranger visions emerged from the white mist up ahead. The rays of time seem to be frozen...
Craving for a force of time...he could have grabbed that "sacrificial" fragment from Zao Lake Village at this very moment.
All Wu Jiu needs is to simply move a finger; he has no doubts about it, even though it seems quite unreal here and now...
Although merged with the spirit of zero-tolerance and his own fearless nature within this world...
The scene before him is a one-on-one with Wu Jiu and the white mist.
While Little Bai and Ma Li are rushing desperately to the fire train, Wu Jiu is currently exploiting the instantaneous energy source to maintain a certain condition, though it’s evident that he’d disregarded certain unfavourable consequences already, being extremely furious with the effects that had been prematurely concluded.
Countless Mechanism City inhabitants, seemingly due to being subjected to some dark forces, begin to exhibit wild and loud outbursts, shouting and clawing as if gripped by anger, fear, or sorrow, right before the onset of Wu Jiu in the white mist ahead.
One minute ago, in the southern district...
...
...
He had no idea if this would serve to protect him amidst the white mist, as he had already expended too much energy and was on the brink of defeat and destruction, with Wu Jiu feeling no joy in any victory.
It was the third and decisive battle for humanity’s victory.
In just fifty-six minutes, an injury as severe as this one would be impossible to recover from, and the power of life regeneration, so fiercely destructive, was still not healing.
Its body fluids, black and purple, streamed out nonstop as if its outer layer of skin had been peeled off, leaving its torso almost imitating a Buddha statue. Both its arms exploded into pieces, and its body was shattered beyond recognition.
Lying on the ground, it was gasping for its last breath, destroyed and at the bottom of a massive pit.
It hadn’t died yet... but even so, it was as if it might as well have.
There was no way to dodge; the energy wave attack had already come without warning, and destruction loomed once again at an even greater speed.
Continuing to explode without a break, like an imitation of the Well’s black orb of annihilation, the heart of the city was terrorized by a fearsome energy explosion, as if a ten-mile-wide black hole was about to engulf Mechanism City’s center.
Yet Wu Jiu had completed his mission perfectly well.
Wu Jiu always had a mysterious trust, a strong conviction from the start that echoed with "You can always trust your comrades." This was probably because of the white fog in his consciousness.
Only he was a match for Wu Jiu.
Even Zero Code did not realize how the battle was unfolding. Zheng Yue was still in the midst of his dreamlike struggle.
Jiaxie knew almost nothing, as he lay dying, defeated by the Iron Craftsman because of his identity, unable to give enough space for Zero Code to maneuver.
]"You’ll need to gather them at a certain place, I will tell you where to find the highly destructive explosive device.[
]"I intend to keep the state of dark mimicry going with a broken electric trap, even though the electric source from Mechanism City has already recovered. You will benefit from the power of Mechanism City. You have to kill it, and it might cost you some effort, but considering this is the peak time for your Slokou, you definitely should be able to afford the real power from the servant of the Well."[
——Wu Jiu directly translated Zero Code’s insinuations into actionable intel, listed in Wu Jiu’s mission dossier.
At the same time, within the white fog across from the Well, Zero Code and Wu Jiu were an ideal match, navigating through the miles together.
At this very moment, Wu Jiu had already experienced countless perils and bore no illusions of a white fog encounter, fraught with danger.
Wu Jiu was not only fighting to keep himself alive, but also to keep the mission target alive. It was a triple S-level mission he was undertaking.
One minute ago,
A dense and compact blue orb-like energy wave enveloped the city center, a celestial explosion similar to a nova -- the terrifying energy waves had not yet submerged. Wu Jiu’s figure vanished in that instant.
Sequence imbued by celestial powers activated in a flash!
Wu Jiu thought for a moment, seeing a wave strong enough to obliterate himself in an instant bearing down.
The heavy fire power source capable of causing extreme destruction with just a spark was going to explode instantaneously, being obliterated by the horrifying sound waves!
In the city center, something extremely dangerous, resembling certain objects, started to explode, scattering sound waves all at once.
Wu Jiu’s sheer force wouldn’t let go of his short sword; because he needed to ensure the destruction was contained within this area! However, there was no retreat for him yet.
Wu Jiu understood the fear of imminent destruction as he felt the terrifying power of the weapon emitting from that portent. The "Evil Must Die" etching on his beloved sword resonated with his ferocious punch.
Rather than retreating from the imminent danger, he charged towards destruction, facing it head-on, brazenly risking being overwhelmed by the devastating impact.
It seemed as though Wu Jiu, from the very beginning, had an inevitable ability to deflect destruction, as he held onto the belief that a single crucial strike would terminate it.
"If you’re going to die, you might as well die here while saving the white fog," he mused.
He had a battle plan because he had known about this triple S-level mission beforehand, encountering it on the streets.
It was capable of releasing an explosive roar, like a trembling reverberation that shook the surroundings.
The roar of fury set off destruction.
"I’m going to break your legs! You’re just the kind of person who can only run away!" he threatened.
An embodiment of destruction descended from the sky, less than ten seconds to impact.
He clearly needed to catch his breath, his breathing was urgent.
In the heart of the city, on Tenth Street, Wu Jiu finally came to a stop.
...at last.
Ma Li would most likely return to Tenth Street next time, and Wu Jiu would go somewhere else. However, he seemed to be inevitably drawn to Tenth Street in the heart of the city, despite seemingly having wandered through hundreds of other places, in a definitive struggle with annihilation.
The destructive capacity of the body was infinite; it was not constantly at high frequency, causing Wu Jiu’s physical strength to decline rapidly.
The speed was indeed unmatched and brought Wu Jiu an unbeatable position, but speed alone doesn’t represent fighting strength.
Wu Jiu’s elusive shadow, impossible to trace in the boundless void of invisibility, propelled his body to break through extreme speeds, relentlessly pursuing each part of Mechanism City.
He was only coldly and quietly confronting the past. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Wu Jiu had to admit that the destructive force’s combat strength was still stronger than Zhong Xu’s. Within five seconds inside the destructive force, Ma Li would manage to follow him after every departure, no matter what.
Wu Jiu seemed to possess some sort of battle technique; the destructive force led by the nose was only raging, not posing a valid threat. But the harm it could inflict was still quite troublesome.
He had already extricated himself from the bounds of speed.
To Wu Jiu, the entire city seemed like nothing more than a tiny game arcade that he couldn’t just go back to anymore.
One moment Wu Jiu appeared in the energy market of the western district... or perhaps in the underground factory of the northern district.
Once Wu Jiu sensed the aura of the destruction, he immediately followed it.
But in the next second, Wu Jiu reappeared in the heart of the city, on Tenth Street.
However, the destruction did not follow him for more than a terrifyingly fast instant.
In the next second, Wu Jiu appeared in a grocery store of the eastern district in Mechanism City.
He was active within the entire bustling area non-stop.
Facing him in this colossal energy battleground were two unstable electric children, almost like the destructive battle itself was a marvel crafted by some iron artisan god.
Even then, Wu Jiu managed to become even faster, feeling the destructive might’s terrifying power behind him.
Every single attack it made almost caused irreversible damage, shortening the life span limit and making each advancement a nearly incurable wound, with the destructive force being incredibly strong.
He possessed even greater speeds, and in the end, he had to rely on an instantaneous move to escape its sight.
Wu Jiu had exceeded all the limits of his attributes, maintaining an extreme balance and even elevating a single attribute further.
At the gambling arena, he had acquired Sequence Creation 004, which allowed him to elevate a single attribute while lowering the other four attributes, the form of an extreme load: Overload.
Who knew how terrifying it was, this Overload form behind Wu Jiu’s instantaneous movements, extreme balance, and extreme speed.
Even Sequence Creation 95 was included in its repertoire, among others.
Jiaxie had already used countless sequences from "Sequence Creation" in the same year, but...
Ultimately, it was the extremely terrifying reality of the destructive force as observed by the iron artisans and the businessmen.
The adversarial nature of the destructive force and Wu Jiu was the utmost suspense in the decisive battle.
Why die in a dream when he must choose to wake up, his defeat was already painfully clear.
But at the very least, he had dreamt of a life trapped within grand imaginations, trying to force a tie in the struggle, capture the merchant asking for help in a cage, but he had become the cage’s dream.
In the dream, Zheng Yue might have known in his heart that he was also a mere figure in someone else’s calculations, or perhaps he was the one orchestrating it all.
He seemed to have used some kind of strength to keep himself in a perpetual state of wakefulness, but from the beginning, he had no choice to retreat. Lazy as Zheng Yue was, he had turned his dream into a nightmare.
Zheng Yue, who was in constant pain that was evident from the fresh blood flowing from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, could not move or use his strength in combination with the Iron Artisans and merchants. He only needed to wake up, but Zheng Yue had never woken up from the start.
This was definitely an absolute nightmare for Zheng Yue, but it meant nothing to the others.
No one knew exactly how the confrontation in the dream between Zheng Yue and the merchants had unfolded.
Zheng Yue had not yet suffered a defeat, and the confrontation with the merchants was still ongoing.
This time, it was Zheng Yue.
It was him who had been smashed to pieces in the third confrontation, the toughest one he had ever faced with Slokou, the unpredictability of the Sequence weapon making every battle extraordinarily difficult.
Perhaps if his luck improves just a bit, he might be able to take Li Ming’s godly belt to his waist. But Jiaxie is not a man, he has no such part.
If he could place this blue chest-wrap, a personal item of Li Ming on some part of himself, he’d be able to achieve an absolute concealed state, completely cut off from any sensation.
One must admit that Jiaxie’s summoning items have inherent great strength. The blue chest wrap... It was Li Ming’s.
The iron craftsmen and Jiaxie couldn’t pull it out.
This sword couldn’t be pulled out... but the problem was that it remained in place.
The sword in the stone seemed extremely powerful at a glance. Iron Artisans, even with their great skill, couldn’t stop gazing upon this sword, which was a stone sword with a blade stuck inside a rock, obviously an extraordinary weapon. freēwēbnovel.com
This tool was indeed one of the very sharp instruments within the Mechanism City. The brighter and mightier the light emitted from the environment, after shooting the sunbow, the more unstable and obviously unreliable the celestial Sequence summoning items became.
Continually supporting the potential power of the Jiaxie equipment made it extremely unstable compared to what was below.
By using a certain type of magical beast-transforming weapon, it could make his small and short body develop and transform into a huge bull. This armor was the Iron Artisans’ crafted bull demon war armor and bull demon helmet.
With every attack received, Eidan’s magic shield could enable an increase in counteractive durability, for every single targeted blow.
Daroth’s war hammer could cause a break in all sorts of weapon cases with one strong hit.
Every Spiritual Possession item that the Iron Artisans crafted was essential, especially this one.
He still complied with his old habit of facing the Iron Artisan, yet now...
Just then, unexpectedly, Wu Jiu was able to provide the maximum degree of kinetic energy assistance immediately, which could enhance the effectiveness of Jiaxie’s mechanized suit. The Iron Artisan was simply incomparable.
...Looking at his face extremely... The Spiritual Possessions of the Sequence summoning items, though, Jiaxie never ceased using the controlling artifacts.
A figure appeared in the eastern market, bent over in defeat, from the confrontation between Jiaxie’s Spiritual Possession and the Iron Artisan.
He could offer the highest degree of support data, but he couldn’t provide any fire support for him.
Zero was instantly resolved by the signal issue amid the crowd of people in the fog, but although Zero couldn’t appear to help him, Mechanism City still had control over him.
The public could feel the mission’s difficulty level just from the description on the surface, and suddenly, coming from an unfinished s-level scout team outside the tower, the task was upgraded to sss-level difficulty.
[The final battle, main task content: Survive six minutes inside the white mist to prove self-preservation: Victory condition. Persist for six minutes: Defeat condition, or death by white mist. Mission difficulty: sss level.]
——At this time, the entire party, including Jiaxie, Zheng Yue, Wu Jiu, and Little Bai, had encountered a key mission during their banquet.
Just as they were about to confront the ferocious remnants of the divine guards of the Southern District fire squad, a sudden and fierce group of divine guard members seemingly received some orders and rushed toward the Eastern District, leaving the banquet with Little Bai and the others behind.
In the Well Five, he suddenly snapped back to reality at this moment, with the white mist disconnecting mid-link.
Six minutes.
