Chapter 851: Chapter 464 Opportunity_2

However, his performance was absolutely the most striking.

The areas he cleared were filled with numerous Fallen.

These Fallen were extremely troublesome; most of them were elite knights from the Starry Kingdom during their lifetimes, possessing high combat skills and formidable fighting capabilities.

Many people were accustomed to wide-open battles with monsters, but when faced with the nimble and agile fighting style of the Fallen, they felt a great sense of discomfort, and any slight oversight could lead to losses or injury.

Therefore, areas with Fallen were cleared very slowly—except by Rod.

With astonishing efficiency, he killed these former Starry Knights, solving many problems alone and greatly accelerating the pace of clearing.

"Undefeated" Jessica and Brittania’s Annie were the ones who cleared the most areas, with the former in the Awakened State possessing nearly infinite Spiritual Energy. The Six-Armed Snake Demon was tireless, capable of fighting endlessly.

Her strength once made Rod doubt the rule "strength comes at a cost."

Meanwhile, Brittania’s Annie was the dark horse that no one expected.

As the only dual-sequenced individual, both a Seventh Unawakened and Black Inheritor, her exhibited combat power exceeded everyone’s imagination, possessing a terrifying physical strength that feared no attack. Her natural power was unimaginable, and even without Spiritual Energy enhancement, she could easily kill monsters.

More terrifying was her ability to gain a super characteristic, "Light Energy Aggregate Cannon," by devouring soul cores. It could transform life force into Spiritual Energy emission, and with Annie having fused with the Steel Demon Dragon’s remains, her life force was nearly limitless. Therefore, she almost continuously fired the Light Energy Cannon, sweeping through the nearly destroyed city.

This extremely violent combat style nearly rivaled the Special Level Combatants, causing Horus to repeatedly warn her to keep the commotion down. The Silence Stone couldn’t completely eliminate her Spiritual Power Wave, and the spatial fractures couldn’t stop the roar of her cannon.

Great Priest Megan was extremely proud, constantly staying by Annie’s side to adjust her state, ensuring she displayed her powers in the best form, while consistently emphasizing that Annie was just an ordinary girl unable to pass the Fire Trial seven years ago.

Presently, her performance was among the highest of the Guardians, aligning infinitely with the Fire Son.

Of course, it wasn’t only the two of them who excelled. The Great Sword Tai Luo, the flowing light of Fei Xue, and the Sun Warrior Raki were all remarkably outstanding, while veteran Guardians like the Gale Sword Saint from Cloud Village, Chucher from Apple Village, and Ye Feng from Krama’s Brain also showed formidable strength.

Those First Level Combatants, and similar combat powers, under the blessing of the Bright Festival, also performed commendably.

Among them, the Shadow Warriors from Calier’s secretive unit surprised everyone. Whether Spirit Bearers or Unawakened, they shone brightly in battle, displaying astonishing combat power far surpassing their performance on the battlefield outside Starry Sky City.

Those previously dissatisfied with Calier’s Non-Human Voice Plan began to waver.

If they had fully supported this plan back then... would there be more Calier Shadow Warriors now?

If there were enough First Level Combat power, would the battle of Starry Sky City proceed more smoothly?

The Unawakened fought fearlessly, leaving a deep impression on everyone. They genuinely dared to engage in bloody battles with monsters, and with their exceptionally high physical strength bolstered by Spiritual Energy, they were even harder than before. A fight for a fight wasn’t considered a loss.

The Black Inheritors and White Spirit Inheritors, with their bizarre abilities, were equally astonishing. They always possessed various rare and peculiar characteristics, often silently leading monsters to unexpected demise.

But the deepest impression was left by the Infinite Light Energy Cannon Annie. She was like a doomsday machine, fearless of any attack, sweeping the battlefield with the overpowering light cannon at the faintest disagreement, delivering devastating blows to monsters.

If there were several Annies...

Some began pondering this possibility, becoming less repulsed by Great Priest Megan.

With everyone’s concerted efforts, the early phase of the Starry Sky City battle was incredibly smooth, not as terrifying and arduous as envisaged.

The monsters they encountered, more than half were Fallen who were knights of the five major Knight Orders of the Starry Kingdom, while the remainder included Fiends, Horror Demons, and Black Fog Symbionts.

The latter were the most terrifying monsters; they possessed astonishing corruption, having developed into a final complete form of erosion, a pure dark condensed matter with a strange connection to the black fog itself.

Whenever warriors encountered them, they were ordered to immediately retreat, leaving the battlefield to four Special Level Combatants.

These monsters were only allowed to be hunted by them. According to Horus, the Black Fog Symbionts, though powerful, if killed recklessly, would trigger a profound disturbance called Source Feedback, which could bypass the spatial fractures, inciting surrounding monsters to attack them.

The Fire Son had a way to weaken this disturbance, preventing it from immediately manifesting. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Rod was extremely surprised when he learned this information and asked the Book of Knowledge: "Book, why didn’t we have such means when we sacrificed Black Fog Symbionts back then? That way, we could have developed quickly without declaring war against the Black Fog World in advance."

The Book of Knowledge replied: "Master, it’s different. They were just one of the many enemies that Black Fog used to have everywhere, whereas we are its arch enemies. The Source Disturbance we cause is more profound than theirs, and you once forcefully sacrificed a soul on the Soul Altar, just fueling the fire."

Rod gave a dry chuckle; it was evident that the Book of Knowledge still held a grudge against Rod for choosing to trust a puppet over it.

"It couldn’t be helped back then. We were too weak, and the Soul Altar couldn’t even contain a powerful soul."

The Book of Knowledge didn’t wish to revisit that painful topic and instead said, "Master, our tracking of the remaining body of the God of Flesh Rebirth is nearing its end. According to the current information, the remaining parts of the God of Flesh Rebirth have aggregated together at the boundary between the Chaotic Sea and the Light Country. We will reach the destination in a few days; are you ready?"

Rod frowned and said, "Book, at least wait until the battle of Starry Sky City is over, right? How can I spare the energy to fight the God of Flesh Rebirth now?"

"It’s not like that, Master!" The Book of Knowledge shook its pages. "I have a premonition that the power left for us by the God of Flesh Rebirth might be extraordinary and could help in the battle of Starry Sky City."

"Moreover, fighting it doesn’t require your power; the Dream Realm will directly engage."

The Dream Realm engaging directly?

That means it’s either the Sun Tower or the Spirit Realm Strike?

Rod felt slightly relieved. As long as he wasn’t personally fighting, it was fine. At that time, he just had to pretend to rest and could enter the Dream Realm to deal with this long-awaited battle.

"Master, you should find a way to get some more Nightmare Fuel."

"Nightmare Fuel?" Rod was startled. Nightmare Fuel is a drop item from killing Black Fog Symbionts, used in the Dream Factory to create "Colorful Dreams," which can turn "bad things" into "good things."

Though he wasn’t clear on its exact utility, Rod used it to repair the severely damaged Divine Mirror.

"Yes, you currently have 30 units of Nightmare Fuel and need 45 more units to produce one Colorful Dream."

Rod frowned and asked, "And then?"

"You can personally consume the Colorful Dream, thereby completing the Quantification of several long-overdue stars, increasing the Dream Realm’s Source Energy. This way, the Sun Tower will have enough firepower to deal with the remains of the God of Flesh Rebirth."

Rod felt a sinking heart as he thought; the cannon on the Sun Tower consumes Dream Source Energy. Four units maintain basic operation, six units for full power, and the Dream Realm has only 23 units of Source Energy, needing five units for maintenance. The number of operable turrets was actually quite limited.

When battling the Main Brain, firepower wasn’t essential since he was just playing the role of a target at that time.

Now, when dealing with the God of Flesh Rebirth, no one would provide firepower for him.

"Book, are you sure that the Colorful Dream can awaken the stars and complete their Quantification?"

The Book of Knowledge replied: "Master, I am very certain. Using the Colorful Dream is one of my essential duties. You better collect Nightmare Fuel soon. The battle will start very soon, allowing you to face it with greater strength and gain more Divinity."

Rod’s face was full of concern. The Book of Knowledge made it sound simple because it only had to move its ’lips.’

For him to do it was troublesome; Horus had repeatedly and sternly warned against battling Black Fog Symbionts, so how could he publicly defy orders?

Rod mulled it over and could only think of one way.

—To ask Moonlight Knight Olivia for help, having her take him during the battle, find an opportunity to strike down the Black Fog Symbiont with one hit.
