Chapter 1911: Chapter 1909: It’s My Turn! (The Group Came Back Again)
Missiles and grenades exploded on the surface of Nyarlathotep, turning into balls of fire, causing the flesh to roar and explode, yet the gigantic, elephant-trunk-like creature remained standing, waving its tentacles as if mocking Fang Zheng’s powerlessness.
What a damn hassle!
Dodging the attack again, Fang Zheng landed on the ground, furrowed his brow, and stared at Nyarlathotep before him. Just relying on the current situation, there’s no way to defeat it. Should he call the fleet? But what if this Chaos corrupts the fleet...... Hmm...... better check if the Soulstone has anything useful.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng quickly opened the Soulstone and started searching through them one by one.
Arthas...... definitely can’t beat, Malthael...... probably not, Bald Guy 47 even less...... Come to think of it, I haven’t drawn Kratos’ Soulstone! Kerrigan...... is Kerrigan still here?
Glancing over the Soulstone in his hand, Fang Zheng paused for a moment, then abruptly pulled Kerrigan’s Soulstone back.
Kerrigan...... Kerrigan......
Hmm......
Let’s give it a shot!
"Hold it off for me!"
With this thought, Fang Zheng immediately shouted angrily to give the order, and then Musesha also roared and lunged at Nyarlathotep. At the same time, within the King’s City, the giant Yum strode out, spread his arms, and smashed down on Nyarlathotep.
Faced with the attacks from Musesha and the giant Yum, Nyarlathotep was finally blocked. Fang Zheng took this opportunity to duck behind the ruins and activate the system.
"Though I’m not sure if it’ll work, let’s give it a shot!"
With this thought, Fang Zheng gritted his teeth and immediately opened the enhancement section of the Dimensional Codex System, quickly placing Kerrigan’s Soulstone inside.
[Kerrigan Soulstone detected, starting enhancement, requires Enhancement Stone 100]
[Consumes Enhancement Stone +10]
[Consumes Enhancement Stone +10]
As the progress bar rapidly soared, Fang Zheng swiftly consumed 100 Enhancement Stones, then......
Bleeep———!
A warning sounded, followed by a "crack," and the Soulstone in front of Fang Zheng instantly shattered.
[Enhancement Failed]
[Kerrigan Soulstone usage count -1, further enhancement requires Enhancement Stone 150]
"Damn it!"
Seeing this, Fang Zheng couldn’t help but shout. The reason he hadn’t used all those Enhancement Stones before was because of this fear — enhancing the Soulstone would bring out its hidden form, which equals an upgrade. However, enhancements also have a success rate, and once failed, it decreases the usage count while increasing the number of Enhancement Stones needed for the next try.
MMP, what kind of bastard designed such an inhumane system!
Well, it was me.
Mumbling silently, Fang Zheng continued to enhance. The progress bar soared once again, then......
"Crack."
[Enhancement Failed]
[Kerrigan Soulstone usage count -1, further enhancement requires Enhancement Stone 200]
"Screw this!!!"
By now, Fang Zheng was going mad. He had to wipe his tears and first add 200 Energy Stones to Kerrigan to replenish the previously consumed usage count, then he used more Enhancement Stones......
"Crack."
[Enhancement Failed]
"......... Damn it!!!"
Finally, before he almost lost all his savings, Fang Zheng expended the remaining last 400 Reinforcement Stones for the enhancement. Finally......
"Ding dong!"
With a clear and delightful sound of a bell, the Soulstone before Fang Zheng instantly began to shimmer, transforming from its original golden brilliance into a rainbow Radiance. Subsequently, the messages before Fang Zheng swiftly changed.
[Soulstone Enhancement Completed]
[Queen of Blades. Kerrigan advanced to Xel’Naga. Kerrigan]
[Rank: Fantasy]
[Activation Count: 2]
[Gain Buff: Infinite Evolution (The meaning of life lies in ceaseless exploration and rebirth)]
[Gain Buff: Void Overlord (Psionic, is the real secret of this world)]
[Gain Buff: Essence of Eternity (Xel’Naga’s power will establish the rebirth of this world)]
It’s done!
Seeing this, Fang Zheng felt a surge of joy, yet at that moment, a violent crash echoed by his ears. Fang Zheng turned his head and saw that the giant Yum had already been pinned to the ground by Nyarlathotep. Dozens of huge, sturdy tentacles tightly wrapped around the giant Yum, and those tentacles began to gradually melt, trying to completely envelop, devour, and digest him like rotten mud.
Damn it!
Seeing this, Fang Zheng couldn’t help but shiver. Fortunately, he hadn’t transformed back into dragon form. If he had to experience that, it would certainly leave a psychological shadow.
But for now, better them than me.
.......Hmm? That’s not right.
This thing was also created using my own power!
Forget it, whatever, let’s go!
Thinking this, Fang Zheng crushed the Soulstone in his hand without hesitation.
The next moment, radiant light erupted.
A dazzling golden light burst forth instantly, illuminating the entire battlefield. Nyarlathotep turned to look, only to see within the golden radiance, a woman of similar towering stature with golden wings slowly emerging from the void. She spread her wings, glaring angrily at the creature before her, and lightly brushed her hand. Soon, a golden Lightsaber appeared in her hand.
The woman gripped the sword with both hands, transforming into a streak of meteor, charging at Nyarlathotep. Then, with a flash of the sword light, she directly severed all the tentacles binding the giant Yum. At the same time, blazing flames once again surfaced from the Lightsaber, instantly turning Nyarlathotep’s two hands to ash.
It works!
Seeing this, Fang Zheng let out a sigh of relief. The reason he chose Kerrigan was because of her power of Void Ethereal Energy. The power of the void can also manipulate space. In a situation where magic doesn’t work, using Void Ethereal Energy to counter Nyarlathotep’s dimensional manipulation was the only method Fang Zheng could think of. As long as he could disrupt Nyarlathotep’s dimension control, the Primordial Fire could be used directly.
It seems now that this idea was clearly effective.
However, Nyarlathotep was evidently no pushover. Upon realizing something was wrong, it immediately severed its own arms, preventing further devouring by the Primordial Fire. Simultaneously, Fang Zheng saw both sides of Nyarlathotep’s body begin to squirm again, and soon, several arms grew out, reaching toward Fang Zheng.
In response, Fang Zheng was unfazed, once again commanding Kerrigan to sever Nyarlathotep’s incoming claws. Yet at that moment, he suddenly felt a sinking beneath his feet. Looking down, he saw Nyarlathotep’s tentacles had somehow unnoticedly wrapped around Kerrigan’s legs.
Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng’s heart suddenly jolted.
Wait a moment.
Does Kerrigan... count as a Magical Girl?
Hmm..... this question.....
After thinking it over, considering Kerrigan’s age and appearance......
Alright, she’s certainly not a girl.
Then there’s no issue!
"Boom!"
The golden light surrounding the woman surged once more, forcefully shattering the tentacles encircling her. However, Fang Zheng didn’t stop there. Instead, he manipulated Kerrigan to charge directly into Nyarlathotep’s arms, leveraging the momentary break. Swinging the golden Lightsaber from above with a single strike!
It was only at this point that Nyarlathotep seemed to finally panic, its body once again twisting, condensing, and transforming like quivering jelly. However, before the transformation could be completed, Musesha seized the opportunity to dart from behind, clamping down tightly on Nyarlathotep’s leg.
And Nyarlathotep’s transformation abruptly ceased!
It’s important to know that Musesha is also a condensed form of the Time Domain. Though not as powerful as the Time Dragon, time manipulation and travel are its fortes!
"Swoosh!!!"
The Greatsword, blazing with golden radiance, swept diagonally down from Nyarlathotep’s shoulder, directly cleaving into its body. Following this, the brilliance of psionic energy flickered non-stop, filling every corner of Nyarlathotep’s body. Soon, the dazzling golden light grew even stronger, emanating from the cracks in the twisted, expanding body, and then transformed into a bright, fiery light.
Finally, it completely exploded.
"Boom————!!!"
Fire, akin to a nuclear explosion, shot skyward, shattering Nyarlathotep’s twisted body thoroughly. But it didn’t end there. From amid the explosion’s smoke, a wisp of translucent, unnamable entity shrieked and soared into the sky. Yet simultaneously, the golden woman raised her hand, and a light beam descended from above, enveloping the unnamable entity within.
Subsequently, Fang Zheng once again thrust forward with the sword.
"&*%%...*&...&...!!!"
The piercing shriek resounded through the sky. Even Fang Zheng himself felt his whole head swim. In that split second, it was as if his mind had been forcefully introduced to something he completely couldn’t comprehend, not due to a lack of knowledge, but entirely because of perspective. Just like a fly cannot comprehend the world in a cat’s eyes, Fang Zheng now felt as though he was forcibly dragged into a world fundamentally different from his common sense.
Everything before him began to change.
The screams in his ears turned into murmuring whispers, as if someone was chanting softly in foreign words he couldn’t understand. The scene before his eyes started to transform, the ground turned into a mass of steaming flesh, the mountains were writhing bones, and the sky was filled with giant unblinking eyeballs staring at the world. In the air he breathed, there were even semi-transparent, twisted worm-like entities floating around......
All it took was a single breath to feel as if those worm condensates entered his throat with the air, settling into his lungs, spreading through his blood vessels to every part of his body, beginning to itch as his skin started writhing and swelling......
"Hoo!!!"
Warm flames appeared before his eyes.
The first flame of the newly opened world reignited, its scorching temperature dispelling everything. Those unnamable, chaos-like terrifying hells vanished abruptly under the radiance of the fire, and everything was restored to its original form.
"Ha... ha..."
Fang Zheng released the Soulstone, lying directly on the sofa, drenched in sweat.
No matter what, it was finally... concluded.
Just as Fang Zheng had this thought, a crisp and melodious system notification sound rang in his ears again.
