Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 312 Deep into the Old World and the Sequence 0 Group
Chapter 311

Shortly after the battle between Rosen and the Food King ended, the fighting in the other locations also gradually ceased.

Because after defeating the Food King, he was able to free up his hands to attack the others.

Therefore, it's only a matter of time before they are defeated one by one. This is not a life-or-death battle. The competition has reached a sufficient level. If it continues, they might really get into a fight and develop murderous intent. We can't have casualties in our own team before we even leave the old camp.

"Your Majesty, you have won!"

The princess hugged Rosen's arm and cheered adoringly.

"You are sick?"

Rosen turned his head and asked.

"I have a crush on strong men, and this time I'm playing the role of a fangirl."

The princess nodded and answered frankly without any hesitation.

"The one outside is better than me."

Rosen said helplessly.

"Too old."

The princess answered without hesitation.

"I hope you won't regret setting your sights on me."

Rosen gave a final warning.

Seeing that the princess showed no sign of letting go, he unceremoniously took her arm and walked toward the teammates who were arriving one after another.

He possesses acting skills and has a very good understanding of the acting profession.

A high-sequence actor is a transcendental sequence without love, because you never know if the actor in front of you is playing a role. Playing various roles to gain recognition, and then completely breaking away from the role, is a unique way of growth for actors in the transcendental sequence.

Iris has reached the pinnacle of Sequence 1, and among his five teammates, Iris is the most threatening to him.

This time, Iris has set her sights on him, probably because she sees him as the male lead in her new drama of advancing to Sequence 0.

……

With the outcome decided, Rosen's teammates' attitudes toward him changed noticeably.

As long as his commands aren't too outrageous, his teammates won't refuse his leadership during the subsequent operations.

One by one, the battles between all seventeen squads in the war zone came to an end.

Without exception, the seventeen forbidden sequences were completely victorious.

The high and mighty titled demigods finally witnessed monsters of the same level that were even more terrifying than themselves.

After the banquet, Rosen stayed at the Lord's Castle in Bari for two days.

After two days, I had basically become familiar with the other demigods.

Early on the third day, Barry summoned all the demigods in front of the castle gates and then distributed to each demigod a replica of the Torch of Hope of Sequence 1 quality, which could carry more of the power of the Torch of Hope.

Rosen could clearly see that the Torch of Hope, a true god-level being within the old camp, had become unusually weak.

No wonder the other demigods were sent away early; the Torch of Hope had drawn too much power and was no longer able to protect the old camp.

Without providing any details about the mission, Barry led all the demigods away from the Old Camp.

The reason for not telling them was given in advance: how to kill the dying Great True God was not something Rosen and the others needed to worry about, and the things they needed to do to strengthen the seal could not be told in advance either, because if they did, there was a possibility that the world's will would find out.

Therefore, Barry will only tell them how to reinforce the seal at the very last moment.

After leaving the old camp, Barry took out a supernatural artifact of the True God level, which contained the Law Domain containing the Law of Concealment, and used it to conceal the whereabouts of all demigods. He then headed straight for the head of the Great True God who was sleeping in the center of the Old Continent.

This journey lasted for more than two months, and on this day, the pace of travel suddenly slowed down.

Because of the terrifying divine pressure at this distance, even a titled demigod instinctively felt a suffocating fear.

Under this terrifying pressure, the effects of the Concealment Law Domain began to diminish significantly.

After venturing deeper for a few days, they began to encounter ash life forms blocking their path.

Ashes, being only a Sequence 3 being, should theoretically be unable to see through the concealment of a True God-level hidden law domain.

Even if you step over the head of this ash life, it will not be able to sense anyone.

However, the Concealment Law Domain seems to have completely failed now.

More and more Ash Lifeforms are appearing on the path ahead, and their sequence levels are getting higher and higher.

This further slowed down their already slowed-down travel speed. Finally, when the Sequence 1 Ash Lifeforms blocked their way, Barry, who was leading the group in stealth, stopped and began assigning tasks and explaining things to all the team leaders.

"You charge straight down this road, making as much of a splash as you can..."

"The titled demigod is too wounded to fight further. We can use the Torch of Hope to retreat to the old camp..."

"The Forbidden Sequence cannot be evacuated casually. You need to go to this coordinate and plant the Torch of Hope in your hand on the corpse of the Sequence 0 Ash Life. Only when you encounter an Ash Life of True God level can you use the Torch of Hope to retreat back to the Old Camp..."

Rosen received the coordinates assigned to his squad and immediately broke away from the main group to head towards the target location.

Even shrouded in ash, the White King's perception remained terrifyingly strong.

It can almost avoid most of the ash life forms blocking its way. Although these ash life forms are commanded to intercept in layers, it is clear that this command is not updated in real time, but rather a simple command is given and then left to the ash life forms to act on their own.

Therefore, as long as they are not surrounded, the ash life along the way cannot pose a real threat.

In just a few hours, Rosen and his group had fought their way through a bloody path that stretched for tens of thousands of miles.

Rosen suddenly stopped, and the team members also stopped, puzzled.

"What did you find?"

The White King, whose senses were the strongest, asked.

"Something's wrong with my fate-related perception skill."

As Rosen spoke, he began to expand his divine territory and construct a defensive line.

While the White King's perception is powerful, it pales in comparison to his Eye of Ash.

So long ago, he saw that there were wise pioneering explorers blocking his way.

This time it wasn't a Sequence 1 doctor, but a doctor with a Sequence 0 level.

Logically speaking, becoming Sequence 0 means that this sequence has reached its peak, because each true god is unique, and each true god of a sequence achieves true godhood by paving their own path; there is no ready-made path to follow.

The only possible explanation for the pioneering explorers of Sequence 0 is that their failure to ascend to true godhood led to the distortion of their extraordinary source matter.

Although he had already discovered that there were pioneer explorers ahead gathering countless Ash Lifeforms to prepare for battle, Rosen could not tell his teammates in advance. He could not explain why his senses were so strong. He could only give limited warnings after getting closer.

Although they suspected that Rosen's perception was wrong, the five teammates still opened up the divine domain.

There are six divine realms that actively overlap with each other.

Then, as it moved slowly forward, the divine territory also moved forward slowly in sync.

Finally, the White King also discovered the enemy hidden in the ashes. Almost the instant the White King sensed the enemy, the Sequence 0 doctor also discovered the White King. Countless quietly dormant ashe life forms immediately surged towards Rosen and the others like a tidal wave.

Rosen did not use any other units, only Shadow Fiend, Metal Slime, and War Treant.

Even so, the ash life forms that approached the divine realm territory perished one by one. Of course, this was also related to the fact that the ash life forms that attacked the divine realm territory were all of very low sequence level. Ash life forms below sequence 3 were not even worthy of consuming their power.

But in the blink of an eye, Rosen realized something was wrong; the dead Ash Lifeforms had died too cleanly.

The body turned to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

After death, his extraordinary essence vanished without a trace.

Rosen secretly used his Eye of Ash to look at the doctor who had retreated hundreds of miles away. He saw black tumors constantly appearing around the doctor. Countless black tumors were randomly pieced together and shaped into a fleshy monster within the doctor's domain.

He went directly to the Black King, using the pretext that his self-portrait clone had gone out to investigate, and told the Black King everything he saw.

Although the Black King is not a doctor, his father is the only true god in the medical lineage. As a descendant of a true god in the medical lineage, the Black King can certainly offer valuable advice.

"I think I know who the enemy ahead is..."

After a moment of contemplation, the Black King said with certainty, "After the birth of the only true god in the Doctor Sequence, if the doctors of Sequence 0 want to go further, they can only study other laws and follow other laws. One of the missing Sequence 0 doctors followed the path of life modification."

What you're seeing is likely a large swarm; it's a terrifying fusion and modification of life forms..."

From Black King's words, Rosen learned of the horde's power.

Some in the medical profession believe that life itself is a failure, an imperfect creation.

From a purely human perspective, the human genome contains too many useless genes. These useless genes limit human physical talents. For a group, weakening the bloodline can increase fertility, but for an individual, there are too many unnecessary genes in the body.

The essence of large groups is, initially, to eliminate waste genes and integrate superior genes.

It relies on the superior genes of the group to replace the inferior genes of the individual.

If a life form is filled with superior genes, then that life form can acquire an exceptionally powerful physique.

However, when the large group was created by the doctor's sequence, the genes within the large group began to break down and mutate.

Because the spirituality within a large group is insufficient to control the strongest body, which is composed entirely of superior genes.

Later research revealed that what were initially thought to be waste genes in living organisms actually all possess hidden value.

Because the spirituality of life exists not only in the depths of the soul and consciousness, but also in the bloodline and genes. However, the spirituality contained within every cell and every gene fragment in the body is a latent spirituality that is difficult for intelligent life to perceive.

Therefore, the life source originating from the body actually shares common ground with the spiritual source.

Rosen's mastery of the Heart of the Ancient God allows him to arbitrarily transform between the two origins, essentially leveraging this commonality.

The manifest spirituality located deep within the soul, and the latent spirituality located within the body.

The relative strength of these two innate spiritual qualities determines the strength of a person's soul and body.

This level of power has an upper limit; the innate potential spiritual power of humans is simply insufficient to control a large number of terrifying bodies.

The potential spirituality is much harder to enhance than the manifest spirituality within the soul.

Therefore, this is the root of the current era where spirituality is the main focus and the physical body is secondary. The extraordinary resources that help enhance the body's potential spirituality have long been consumed by our predecessors over the long years.

Although the large group project ultimately failed, it left behind a wealth of research results.

The most significant research achievement was helping gourmets gain the ability to integrate various extraordinary life gene maps.

The biggest research findings ultimately benefited gourmets.

Of course, some doctors in the Doctor Sequence were unwilling to accept this. The Sequence 0 Doctor who led the Great Swarm Project at the time ultimately decided to collect the best genes from countless lives and try to integrate them into his own body to conduct experiments on himself, wanting to forcibly control the Great Swarm's bodies by relying on his powerful divinity as a Sequence 0 Doctor.

In the end, of course, it failed, and even the divine essence formed from its own extraordinary source material was polluted and distorted at the level of laws.

The Black King thought this person was dead, but he never expected him to appear in the Old World.

Having learned the details of his opponent, Rosen began to understand the weaknesses of the large group.

Judging from the battlefield situation, it can be determined that the life essence of all dead ashes has disappeared.

Those black tumors are the life source of the ash-like life.

The swarm of life forms formed by the fusion of countless black tumors is absolutely no less powerful than the extraordinary life forms of Sequence 0.

Although the body will soon become deformed and collapse due to insufficient and chaotic potential spiritual energy, it will be able to unleash terrifying combat power comparable to that of a god before it dies.

Black King quickly created a special genetic virus that could accelerate the rate of genetic collapse within a large population.

Rosen obtained the virus sealed inside the extraordinary bullet. The Dragon God's Wrath transformed into a sniper rifle, locking onto the location of the large group from a distance. With a single shot, the extraordinary bullet traveled hundreds of miles through the void and struck the group. The fleshy behemoth's body visibly began to collapse.

The doctor, who was completely covered up, realized that the large group he had created had been discovered by the enemy.

He tore open all his clothes, revealing a deformed body covered in black tumors. However, this body, which should have been genetically broken, was somehow in a strange and fragile balance.

The black tumors on the fleshy behemoth began to frantically converge and merge with the doctor and the black tumors on his body.

The mad doctor transformed his own body into two large aggregates at that moment.

Rosen fired several shots in an attempt to destroy the large group using the same method, but all of them were blocked by the countless scalpels hovering in the void.

Seeing that they could not stop the horde from forming, they could only further strengthen their defenses to withstand the horde's attacks.

If they can hold out for a while, these genetically unstable monsters will soon self-destruct.

Rosen also considered taking advantage of the fact that the two large groups had not yet merged to launch a preemptive strike and cause disruption.

However, they eventually gave up because they needed the corpse of a Sequence 0 Ash Lifeform, and then went to the designated coordinates to plant the Torch of Hope on the corpse. The most difficult part was not hunting the Sequence 0, but preserving the Sequence 0's body as intact as possible.

Being forced into a desperate situation and self-destructing before death is too easy for a Sequence 0.

Therefore, it is best to let the doctor absorb the black tumors into a large mass using his own body, and let the doctor use his powerful divinity to suppress the collapse of his body, and fight a war of attrition with the doctor until he becomes weaker and weaker, and the frog in the boiling water can no longer destroy itself.

Several hours later, the large group of doctors was finally formed.

The ugly appearance of countless black tumors is no longer visible; in its place is a perfect humanoid giant with all the best genes in his body. The potential of all these superior genes has been fully unleashed, and he appears flawless without any flaws or weaknesses.

The horde took only a short run-up in place and instantly traversed hundreds of miles, crashing into the divine realm.

At the moment of impact, countless genes recombine on the surface of the large population, forming the hardest carapace at the point of impact.

Almost instantly, except for Rosen's divine realm territory which remained intact, the divine realm territories of the Black King and the others were nearly torn apart. Before the divine realm territories could recover on their own, a large group of fists had already broken through all defenses and ripped open the world barrier of the divine realm territories.

The large group charged into the divine territory and advanced towards the lord's castle in the center of the territory.

However, in that instant, the horde vanished, dragged into the Shadow Abyss constructed by Rosen's Demon Lair. They were trapped there for a full half hour before finally breaking out of the Shadow Abyss. However, they were then trapped in the Golden Desert constructed by the Mummy Pyramid.

By the time the large group emerged from the Golden Desert, the Black King and his people's divine territory had been restored.

The six divine realms overlapped and began to join forces to suppress the large group.

The destructive power of a large group is astonishing, and its defensive capabilities are also terrifyingly strong.

Overall, it performs better than the transformation of the Food King, but its stability is incomparable to that of the Food King's transformation.

Rosen gradually realized that this large group was actually the gene pool of the ancient god bloodline world that had gone astray in the beggar version. If he were to advance to Sequence 0, his ancient god body would be enough to crush this large group.

However, for them now, it would be difficult to defeat a large group that has no weaknesses.

Several hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the large group that had fought to the death suddenly turned around and ran away.

Because the Doctor Pioneer knew very well that his own large force was no match for these few demigods.

If this continues and the large-scale population continues to exist, the genetic map that he has painstakingly stabilized will completely collapse.

However, just as the large group was preparing to retreat, a streak of light appeared from the depths of the void.

The streak of light struck the horde in an instant. The horde's already unstable body stabilized in a flash, and its power surged tenfold, completely crippling the Black King's divine domain with a single punch.

After a few punches, apart from Rosen's divine domain not being seriously damaged, the divine domains of everyone else were almost shattered.

Realizing something was amiss, Rosen contracted his divine territory, preparing to temporarily retreat and avoid their advance.

However, in the next instant, the large group of bodies began to swell, like a terrifying flesh bomb that exploded.

Rosen instantly sent the Black King and the others into the Shadow Abyss, then activated the elemental barrier of Ash Castle, while simultaneously manipulating countless metal slimes to instantly fuse under time acceleration, forming a metal shield that enveloped Ash Castle.

The terrifying explosion lasted for a moment, and four of the nine layers of space in the divine realm were destroyed.

Just moments ago, it was preparing to escape, but suddenly its combat power surged, and then it self-destructed.

This was clearly abnormal, and Rosen's first reaction was that the world's will had made a silent move.

The World Will knew they wanted the corpses of Sequence 0 Ash Lifeforms, so it destroyed them without leaving them any.

Fortunately, the large group is still dead, and it's still far from the coordinates. The next time we encounter a Sequence 0 enemy, it seems we should try to move the battlefield to a place where the world's will cannot influence us, and then use all our means to quickly kill it before it self-destructs.

Only in this way can the body be preserved, thus completing the task assigned by Barry.
