Chapter 975 - 30: Du Zexin
Because this time he almost forcibly issued the main quest to all [Sovereign] players, the [Sovereign] players had no choice but to become [Echoers].
And with the version update, ordinary players were elevated to Gamma (3) level, reaching the standard for entry.
Therefore, the number of [Echoers] Li Aozi gained at once was all the [Mutants] on Azure Star.
This number is... 24.5 million.
That is, 245 points of random attributes.
This time, he had great luck; of the 245 points, quite a number were allocated to [Charm], and with [Perpetual Love Hunting], the growth value of [Charm] defaults to +1, and the growth result gets an additional 30% bonus.
In the end, Li Aozi’s [Charm] broke through the 4000 mark, reaching 4009, completely resolving the issue of insufficient mana and allowing him to freely unleash the gravitational ray.
As his firepower spread out, the golden brilliance constantly flashed and bloomed within this star system, and many planets were merely grazed by the attack aftermath, resulting in a significant loss of stellar mass.
The gravitational ray was too fast.
Yet, even at such speeds, it didn’t stop the opponent’s approach.
Each time Li Aozi raised the scepter, continuously releasing rays, the opponent’s body seemed to foresee and perfectly avoided the attacks, even though Li Aozi used aiming-assist spells to lock onto the opponent firmly and still could not hit.
Its body was pitch black, almost blending with the starry sky, flying extremely fast, even fleet radars couldn’t lock onto it, as Li Aozi waved his hand, the entire starry sky was overshadowed by golden radiance.
But that pitch-black figure remained extremely composed, weaving through the lattice of intertwined beams, and even randomly emitted meteorite fragments couldn’t touch it. In turn, the opponent seized the opportunity, emitting a series of red-black Ersha clusters, forming missiles that fired at him, depleting his health.
Such ability... it’s like dramatically reducing the chance of being hit.
"As expected, still managed to seize the power of Lord Entropy."
Li Aozi remained calm, continuously casting the Meteor Fall Technique.
His accuracy wasn’t poor, rather, when it came to casting such spells, no one could surpass him. He constantly locked the opponent’s movement space, releasing gravitational vortexes, slowing the opponent’s speed; once the speed decreased, there would always be a moment when an attack hit.
As long as it’s possible, no matter how low the probability, it will eventually happen.
Li Aozi didn’t believe in miracles, but he believed in numbers.
With a [Charm] of up to 4009, in the Layer Abyss, not reaching Kappa (10), as long as the opponent takes a hit, they’re done for.
Li Aozi now has up to 750,000 health points, 50,000 more than the same-tier [Destroyer] Pathway’s health!
He could switch anytime to the [Sunset Priestess] with 70% damage reduction and self-healing capabilities—the latter’s body is even smaller, making it hard to hit, and can release abilities to heal itself.
At that time, Xides relied on the Void Overlord’s body, with health bars reaching tens or hundreds of millions, constantly wearing him down, almost working him to death.
Now, even if Xides were to come again, Li Aozi could face-off directly.
He endured all the attacks head-on, purposefully selling flaws, pretending that casting the Meteor Fall Technique required him to stand still, luring the opponent to approach and attack.
This move indeed worked.
After all, with the Meteor Fall Technique’s extraordinary range that spans tens of millions of kilometers, and its terrifying coverage area, coupled with Li Aozi’s classic spellcaster style, it’s easy for people to perceive him as a turret mage.
He deliberately paused, starting to stand still, accumulating the Scorching Hellfire Break, and the intense brilliance immediately shone, with the scepter held high, energy continuously gathering, forming a more gigantic, scorching fireball.
This move, he had not used before.
The pitch-black body circled around, immediately seizing this rare attack opening, directly charging towards Li Aozi.
"Took the bait."
While the opponent approached, firing continuous Ersha Missiles, Li Aozi firmly withstood all the attacks, feigning being interrupted, body dropping towards the nearest War God Star.
"Get a little closer, you surely won’t be able to resist, and can’t help but launch a tempestuous offensive..."
The pitch-black figure saw the Ersha Missile taking effect, immediately accelerated to approach, the closer it got, its body gradually became clear—it was overall shaped like a pitch-black triangle, similar to a heavy dual-engine fighter, trailing dim Ersha engines, ejecting Ersha to accelerate flight, but in the dark starry sky, such trajectory was completely untraceable.
As it got further closer, the body suddenly began transforming, the triangular body abruptly blossoming open from the middle, the body flowing freely like mercury, forming a humanoid shape, a sharp inverted triangular head lit up sixteen pairs of compound eyes, one hand holding a Slag Battle Axe, the other raising a shotgun, directly striking towards the heart of the Scorching Sun Monarch!
Boom!
A delicate hand steadily caught the slag axe blade.
[Stance Switched]
Flame-colored long hair quietly floated in the universe, the fierce impact didn’t make her budge. She stood barefoot between the void, one hand shielding her chest, the other catching a blade tens of times her size.
[Sunset Priest]
’Woman...?’
From the axe blade, an electromagnetic signal was transmitted. Although synthesized electronically, one could still hear the opponent’s surprise.
’It doesn’t matter... no matter who, no one can stop this judgment from proceeding.’
The axe blade fiercely shook, yet couldn’t pull the blade from the delicate woman’s hand.
[You, sound very familiar.]
Following the metal medium, Li Aozi inquired of the other:
[Tell me your name, secret citizen.]
’Then remember it well, the False God of the Starry Abyss.’
The mechanical body replied coldly:
’I am Du Zexin.’
’Mechanical Pastor—Du Zexin.’
