Chapter 803: Divine Might Like a Prison, The Apex of Reincarnators
Brilliant sword light spanned heaven and earth, and the massive aerospace battleship consequently broke apart and crashed. In an ordinary world, this scene would be as terrifying as the end of the world.
But at this moment, in this overly vast and bizarre world, not many people paid attention to such things.
The crash of the aerospace battleship was merely a backdrop. More importantly, the Titan armor brimming with psionic power before them was also sliced diagonally open.
Sparks flew inside, the radiance of psionic power intertwining with the data streams of electronic demons. That high-pitched shriek, inaudible to ordinary humans, rapidly annihilated.
The Fifth Seat of Destiny, [Energy Tyrant: Aka], clutched his chest. There was a massive penetrating wound there. Through the wound, one could see that his heart was half shattered. However, his heart was in an elemental state, not flesh and blood, so he didn't enter a near-death state.
Lingering fear in his heart, he looked around. Survivors from over four teams had gathered here, totaling more than 10 Reincarnators. Moreover, due to his prominent attacks earlier, Reincarnators from all over were continuously flocking toward him.
But this group of monsters from the Machina Court possessed intelligence, or rather "computing power," surpassing ordinary humans. Those guys intentionally sacrificed an aerospace battleship as bait for him to show off.
Subsequently, using him as a powerful fulcrum, they drew in the hiding Reincarnators and planned to annihilate them all in one fell swoop.
Although Chosen Ones had always been arrogant, that arrogance was based on their own special status within the Infinite Dimensional Space.
When facing foreign enemies from other Spaces and other worlds, even the Upper Seven Seats of [Destiny] historically maintained a consistent stance with other Reincarnators.
Therefore, watching the Reincarnators who had gathered around him out of trust being killed, Aka was furious beyond measure. Consequently, he revealed a flaw and had his heart pierced by a psionic ray from that Titan armor.
His candidate, [Kurenai], had even fought to the death after he was heavily injured.
Fortunately...
Aka looked at the woman standing alone with a single sword in front of all the Reincarnators. Her white robe and cape danced in the strong wind. As her long hair fluttered, rings of golden Concussive Pulse of the Spiritual Light swept across the entire sea area like a tidal wave.
Whether it was the Reincarnators, the armors and robots of the Machina Court, or even the battleship descending from the sky like a behemoth, everything was swept up by that Concussive Pulse of the Spiritual Light, which seemed to continuously suppress a burning anger.
"Yoko Ekaterina..."
The once most terrifying enemy of the primary world had, at this moment, transformed into the most reassuring reinforcement and descended!
"Machina Court... who is your leader in this world? It's impossible for just a few Authority-level units to want to monopolize such a vast world."
Yoko's voice was deep but contained a strange magnetism.
RUMBLE!
Only at this moment did the sliced aerospace battleship begin to explode and crash.
[You have destroyed Elite-level unit: Aerospace Battleship Fukyu. Score +1. Current: -17]
[Special Unit: Archetype of Terminus and Genesis has killed Authority-level unit: Thunder God Ebito. Score +2. Current: -15]
Yoko's expression didn't change much, but the corners of her mouth lifted slightly. She wasn't as ruthless as Kaito Shirogane; she always believed in the possibilities of humanity. Humans were a cruel yet resilient species.
No matter how terrifying the hardships they encountered, they would trade a sharp decline in population for the birth of a few unimaginably extraordinary individuals, ultimately overcoming the hardships.
This was true for ordinary human history, and it should be true for Reincarnators as well.
Therefore, she wouldn't be like Sousuke, unwilling to see sacrifices, nor would she, like Kaito Shirogane, proactively facilitate a more intense elimination mechanism for Reincarnators.
But just as Kaito Shirogane had sensed, Yoko was actually suppressing extremely terrifying power and anger in her heart.
"Marking Infinite Dimensional Special Unit: Heaven's Pilgrimage. Records have been synced to the Court server. Subsequent reinforcement sequence changing... Zzt! BOOM!"
The psionic reaction was directly annihilated along with the explosion.
Members of the Machina Court all had a very troublesome trait. The true lives of most of them were in an informational state, recorded within a certain aerospace battleship and entering the respective world alongside the deployment.
Probably because they lacked the ability to transfer information across worlds, planes, and dimensions, destroying the aerospace battleship actually carried the possibility of killing these guys.
It was just that the closest aerospace battleship wasn't necessarily the one storing the corresponding information. Therefore, the aerospace battleship Yoko destroyed with a single sword strike earned several points, but the Authority-level member of the Divine Court inside the Titan armor before her didn't die completely.
That Authority-level Machina Court member merely lost this powerful armor and hadn't died yet.
However, for Yoko, it no longer mattered. She had already measured the strength of the Machina Court's Authority-level units. For now...
They couldn't withstand a single blow.
Screech!
An intense sword hum rang out. Yoko unleashed a slash, then immediately turned and walked toward the heavily injured Aka, her gaze sweeping over the Reincarnators hiding further away.
"Aka, immediately gather all the Reincarnators you can contact and converge on my position. We need to reverse the overall situation of this world before Son Goku enters!"
Yoko naturally issued orders. Aka found that he had no thoughts of resentment; he accepted Yoko's leadership very naturally, and an unprecedented sense of security even arose in his heart.
At this moment, he began to understand why the West District had been almost unified by this woman so quickly. It wasn't that the West District was too weak, but that this woman indeed possessed a certain magic.
Aka had originally been pessimistic about the prospects of this world. The Machina Court and Void Paradise appeared too quickly. Unlike other secondary worlds where Reincarnators could rely on a time advantage to gain plot advantages, this time, the Reincarnators had been heavily damaged almost before they could even latch onto the plotlines.
The excessive number of Authority-level units caused top-tier Reincarnators to be pincered, and unprepared Reincarnators were surrounded and killed, suffering heavy casualties.
But... he didn't expect that the third batch of deployed Reincarnators would actually only consist of two people. No, it should be said, he didn't expect the Space would directly deploy those two together!
The King of the West District, Yoko!
And the East District's newly ascended King of Monsters... Kaito Shirogane!
Aka even began to wonder if he hadn't fully understood the strength of the enemies in this world, feeling that the Machina Court and Void Paradise were still hiding even more powerful enemies.
To think it made the Space send in the two individuals who could almost be called the strongest single combatants in the current Infinite Dimensional Space all at once...
A few minutes ago, on a nameless island in a certain sea area.
Because Fenrir lost the dominance of the thunder divine power, he fell from the sky. He quickly transformed into a gray wolf and arrived beside Ritsu, whose body was frozen and uncontrollable after her IBM particles were struck by the thunder divine power.
He bit onto Ritsu's arm, turned his head, and ran wildly. Although his flesh and blood tissues were now only about a tenth of their peak state, with most of his bodily functions lost and his combat power plummeting to a level inferior to even an ordinary Title-class Reincarnator...
The survival instinct that had allowed him to survive various dangerous environments time and time again caused his adrenaline to secrete madly.
Fenrir's talent was anchored by the Space as [Survival of the Fittest (A-)]. It was a talent that not only granted him a special danger-sensing ability similar to Spider-Sense but also gave his flesh and blood extremely strong vitality and adaptive mutation capabilities. Combined with his enhanced mutant abilities from the X-Men world, his survivability was incredibly outstanding.
The reason he possessed this talent was his innate intuition, which differed from ordinary people.
Just like at this very moment, after Kaito Shirogane entered and displayed overwhelming strength, others might have relaxed, but Fenrir immediately sensed the crisis underlying this scene.
The King of Monsters, Kaito Shirogane, wasn't Yoko; his attacks would highly likely disregard the lives of others.
In other words, the most dangerous enemy on this island right now had shifted from that Authority-level Contractor of the Void Paradise to... Kaito Shirogane!
Amidst his wild sprint, Fenrir only heard the crack of thunder. Looking back, he saw a God of Thunder emerging from the thunderclouds and lightning. A complete halo of divine light appeared behind him; that was the most perfect form of a Tier 7 Divine Body.
For most Reincarnators at the current stage, the Divine Bodies activated after reaching Tier 7 Authorities could not condense divine light.
But in just an instant, the thunder shattered. Accompanied by a strong stench of blood and the spurting of lightning plasma, a massive gash appeared on the God of Thunder's shoulder and neck.
The divine light behind the God of Thunder violently swayed, and those eyes that originally chilled his heart were filled with disbelief.
"So strong... that guy..."
Ritsu's voice trembled out as if her teeth were chattering together. But Fenrir couldn't see that on his back, the platinum-blonde-haired woman's brows and eyes were soaring with excitement.
That was absolutely not fear; it was a kind of joy from witnessing truly powerful strength.
Under the amplification of the Martial God's Ultimate Intent, Tier 9 Setsuna was no longer the limit for Kaito Shirogane. His pure speed had become extremely terrifying due to the Ultimate Intent's amplification, and combined with the high-multiplier boost of Setsuna, he achieved an extreme speed surpassing even godspeed.
Moreover, Kaito Shirogane had now completely mastered and surpassed the Realm of Nothingness. His killing intent and Battle Aura could be released and retracted at will. There were absolutely no signs before or after he struck, so enemies couldn't perceive his attacks through effects like Crisis Response or Pre-Initiative.
The enhancements he obtained in the Little Garden world were leapfrogging. It could be said that Kaito Shirogane, having acquired the Martial God's Ultimate Intent and entered the Abyssal Domain after Little Garden, could crush and slaughter his pre-Little Garden self with overwhelming ease.
His expression was unbridled; he couldn't feel any pressure whatsoever from this Authority-level target of the Void Paradise who called himself the Thunder God.
He even had the spare capacity to observe everything around him. That guy who transformed into a gray wolf and fled madly surprised him a little. Theoretically, a Reincarnator of that level shouldn't be able to feel his oppressive presence at all.
Yet this guy chose to run away at the most correct moment. This was probably the reason why the other party could survive in this world for so long.
After all... he was so weak~
Kaito Shirogane also saw the woman with platinum-blonde hair tied into a braid on each side, clutching a golden trident. Her power could only be described as pitifully weak, but the IBM particles floating around her and her Demi-Human traits made Kaito Shirogane cast a second glance at her.
It was this glance that allowed Kaito Shirogane to see the young girl's soaring brows and eyes, that look of being completely intoxicated by power body and soul. Kaito Shirogane recognized her value.
This was not one of those worthless idiots. This woman possessed value...
Therefore, Kaito Shirogane decided to give her a chance to live. He would reduce the scale of his attack by half.
Zzt~
Electric light exploded behind him. Brilliant golden divine light spread outward. The massive phantom of thunder completely synchronized with Thunder God Ebito, and the wound on Ebito's neck rapidly healed.
He wasn't suppressed by an Authority. In fact, he hadn't felt any divine power or Concept from the attack at all. That terrifying Reincarnator had merely walked past him at a speed beyond his imagination, casually slicing his neck open with a hand chop along the way!
Ebito shuddered entirely. The fear of encountering someone completely unmatched turned into an even more powerful fighting intent after 0.01 seconds.
As the Son of the Thunder God, pure divine blood flowed in his veins. He had always fought across various places in the Paradise, all to spread the name of the Thunder God.
In this world, was there any deed that could better spread the name of the Thunder God throughout the Void Paradise than fighting such a formidable enemy?!
No!
Ebito knew very well that the so-called Infinite Dimensional Space was absolutely an Observer in its fragile newborn phase.
The Reincarnators of this Space were incredibly weak. Not to mention comparing them to the guys from previous eras, there weren't even many Elite-level units.
And their overall quality was generally not high!
The martial combat god before him must be the trump card that Space had poured everything into cultivating.
He just needed to defeat him here... no, even if he couldn't defeat him, just being able to heavily injure him so others could finish him off would be the greatest victory!
"Nameless God of Martial Arts! I, Thunder God Ebito, offer my resolve here!"
"Hah!"
With a loud shout, the divine light behind the Thunder God named Ebito exploded directly. Terrifying divine power began to expand and spread uncontrollably. Dazzling lightning and divine light almost completely covered his body.
Like a solar flare erupting, Ebito became unobservable. He transformed into brilliant golden light as the terrifying power of thunder collapsed inward.
The two Concepts of [Thunder] and [Divine Punishment] manifested from within.
He directly ignited his divinity, beginning to burn and erupt. This was an irreversible explosive ability that would affect his Godhood and Spirit Status.
But Ebito knew very well that without paying such a price, it was absolutely impossible to fight the person before him.
The next moment, brilliant golden divine light abruptly flared. The entire sea area was instantly illuminated by the intense golden light, and everything else dimmed in this divine radiance.
Fenrir, who had already fled to the sea, looked back. Seeing that terrifying eruption, he knew this power had definitely surpassed Fierce: Upper; this was destructive power touching the Disaster tier!
The devastating power of Authority accompanied by conceptual power... Even with immortality and regenerative abilities, if the level wasn't high enough, one would be completely destroyed.
But the next moment, he heard an even more terrifying, explosive shout.
"Hah!"
It was as if heaven and earth inverted and twisted. The world changed drastically in his eyes. The thunder, kinetic force, gravity, and physical laws in the air were all directly subverted.
He saw the sea instantly roll upwards, and the earth twist and cave inwards. All sound vanished after that explosive shout.
Then, pure white light engulfed everything.
Zzt! BOOM!
The terrifying shockwave bombarded the surrounding sea indiscriminately.
Fenrir let out a painful roar as his eardrums and eyes shattered simultaneously. He and Ritsu were blown away directly. Ritsu even coughed up a large mouthful of blood mid-air before starting to turn into IBM particles to reform.
[Faction Score +2. Current: -15]
Completely losing his sight and hearing, feeling as if heaven and earth had inverted, only the Space interface remained clearly displaying everything that was happening.
Seeing the prompt for adding 2 points, it took his muddled brain some time to realize that the overwhelmingly arrogant Thunder God, the Authority-level formidable enemy who had defeated multiple Third Step teams head-on...
Had been instantly obliterated on the spot by Kaito Shirogane's explosive shout!
