Chapter 808 Promotion to Rank B

Anxi District, commercial center.

In a quiet restaurant, Vice Principal Fu of the Doomsday Academy invited the new Taiko's Minister of Education to dinner.

The main hall of the restaurant was not decorated in an elaborate way. Only a crystal chandelier hung from the eight-meter-high dome. The light and shadow fell on the dining table, leaving only sparse spots of light. In the corner, two withered lotus flowers were placed in a porcelain vase, and next to them stood a grand piano with its lid half closed and covered with a thin veil.

The restaurant was booked out tonight, and the air was filled with the faint scent of pine smoke. Several ink paintings of distant mountains hung on the walls. Everything was just right, even the rims of the tableware were exquisite.

Vice Principal Fu, from the powerful Fu family, didn't care about the small expenses. He looked at the mature and elegant woman in front of him. She was only in her thirties, and her beauty, which was stunning in her youth, was even more captivating now.

"Chief Qing, you seem to be in a bad mood."

Vice Principal Fu smiled and said, "I heard that the child you adopted before fell into a coma due to a bomb attack. If I remember correctly, it should be that young master Qingshan from the Luo family."

Chief Qing gave the other party a cold look and said, "What do you want to see me about? Mingming still has a fever. There's no need for anything else. I think we can take our leave now."

Vice Principal Fu shook his head and chuckled, saying, "Since we're already here, why bother with such pointless talk? I am naturally attracted to the Chief, but business is more important. This is just a transaction that is timely and beneficial to both of us."

"Gu Tiemu, an alchemy master of the architecture department, possesses the Tarot-level forbidden artifact, the Tower. He is under the command of the Empress Dowager and is responsible for executing the Second Wall Project."

The Youth League Chief picked up his teacup, seemingly lost in thought.

Vice Principal Fu continued, "The Second Wall Plan involves creating another iron curtain around the four war zones in the east, west, south, and north to strengthen the strategic depth of the fortified cities in order to counter the vampire invasion."

"The Iron Curtain is hundreds of meters high and stretches for thousands of miles. It has amazing defensive and self-repair capabilities and requires a unique material—memory and derivative metal."

"This rare metal ore is the foundation of the Doomsday Academy. It was originally intended to contain the forbidden object, the demon, but unfortunately, the demon was recently stolen, so the project was suspended."

Vice Principal Fu's eyes were piercing as he said, "If I become the principal, I would be willing to give the foundation to Master Gu, thereby greatly reducing his workload. In return, it is only right that Master Gu spends some time treating the students of the academy."

"The problem is that I am not the principal yet, and I do not have the authority to sell the land and relocate the Doomsday Academy."

Chief Qing said seriously, "You want me to target Vice Principal Yi Long so that you can rise to power, but how can I guarantee that you will sell the land, and how can I guarantee that Master Gu will be willing to reciprocate? You are a member of the Fu family, and he obeys the Empress Dowager. I even doubt whether the two of you have any personal relationship."

"Why don't I meet Master Gu first?"

Vice Principal Fu's face darkened, and he sneered, "You're quick-witted, trying to blackmail Master Gu with the issue of loyalty? I really underestimated you. The negotiations end here."

Chief Qing's expression changed slightly; he had underestimated the other party's keenness.

Around the main hall, sixty Source Power users emerged from various corners, all exuding powerful auras. The weakest among them was at least D-rank, with several C-rank users in two hands. The leader was slender and graceful, clearly a B-rank powerhouse. Each of them bore the mark of the lost souls.

Chief Qing remained calm, put on a smile, and said, "Miss Jian Xin, it's been a long time. Didn't you pledge allegiance to the royal family? It's unwise to associate with Vice Principal Fu."

Snapped!
Luo Jianxin remained silent, slapping out two of the other man's teeth, and coldly said, "Sign, or I'll kill Qing Mingming. It doesn't matter where you hide her; it's meaningless to my Lost Ones Guild. Lakeside Villa No. 3, right?"

Chief Qing's heart sank.

An investigation order was issued against Vice Principal Yi Long, and as the Minister of Education, she naturally had the authority to issue such an order.

"If I sign, I'll only be heading towards my own doom."

“Stubborn to the end.” Luo Jianxin beckoned, and a young player stepped forward in understanding.

"Help her stretch her muscles."

Suddenly, Vice Principal Fu asked in confusion, "Is there one more person than you brought? I can't count them no matter how I look at it."

Luo Jianxin suddenly turned his head.

The "young player" shook his head. He had originally just wanted to get a late-night snack, but he hadn't expected that Vice Principal Fu was quite wary of his allies.

This moment is a crucial juncture in destiny.

Using spatial powers to perform random teleportation and relying on destiny powers to guide the direction, the two powers were perfectly coordinated, allowing Jiang He to appear at this crucial moment.

In the instant everyone was stunned.

A brilliant, moon-like arc of azure light rose up.

Wow!
The full moon shimmered in the main hall, like a rippling lake.

Amidst the ripples, more than ten players were decapitated, blood gushing from the severed necks, their heads rolling to the ground.

The core members of the Lost Ones Guild were on high alert and immediately formed a battle formation. The three front-line members erected heavy shields, forming what appeared to be a city wall, demonstrating their attitude towards an enemy world boss.

But at that moment, when the shimmering blade struck the wall, it did not make a cut. Instead, it turned from solid to ethereal, slashing back like rippling water. This sword technique contained the power of spatial manipulation.

Whoosh!
The seven players who survived the initial attack were split in two.

With a single slash from both ends, seventeen people perished.

Even Luo Jianxin, who had seen many storms, couldn't help but change color. The enemy's aura was only C-level, which meant that they had encountered a top-tier, powerful life form.

In the guild's internal channel, Luo Jianxin almost roared.

"Tank crews, advance! Firepower teams, get your bombs and other equipment out!"

In fact, the Lost Ones Guild is not good at attacking strongholds. Its survival depends on maneuvering within native organizations, trading intelligence, and guiding the general trend.

One main tank and two auxiliary tanks stepped forward, but each of them had a stiff expression and sweat on their foreheads. As heroes before their reincarnation, they naturally knew what "top powers" meant.

The domains are activated simultaneously, with steel, rock, and crystal domains forming a heavy shield that enhances defense to its peak.

Whoosh!
Jiang He waved his hand and handed over a knife.

The blade gleamed with a beautiful, bright silver light.

Spatial power endowed this strike with extreme sharpness. Including a forbidden object, all three heavy shields shattered, and the blade scattered, tearing apart the tank player's body. In the battle for the world, apart from the King of the Era, once the projection of anyone else dies, the player behind them will also perish completely, without any suspense.

Wow!
Minced flesh mixed with blood dripped to the ground, leaving behind unhealable cracks in mid-air. The Night World was at the fourth level, and its spatial solidity was within the range that could be severed by power.

—Secret Technique of Power: Spatial Slash.

Jiang He swung his knife, and drops of blood, mixed with lightning, shot towards the dining table like bullets.

Vice Principal Fu could no longer sit still. Of course, he could see the elite level of the three defensive source energy users. Their true forms manifested, and their energy constructed a huge skeletal giant that shattered the dome of the main hall.

His innate talent, "Hundred Songs," was activated, and his secret technique, "Hymn," strengthened his true self, covering it with a full set of armor. His secret technique, "Elegy," gathered sorrow and created a giant axe, full of killing intent. However, from the perspective of the Heavenly Evolution, the speed at which he used his talents was too slow.

"what!"

Whoosh!
Before the Hundred Songs Secret Technique could be performed in sequence, Jiang He teleported, and Vice Principal Fu suddenly vanished from within his True Self Dharma Image, teleporting to Jiang He's side, the two practically touching. Vice Principal Fu was filled with horror, his soul seemingly leaving his body.

If they can accomplish something like this, then who on the other side can't they kill?

puff!

A short knife pierced straight into his brow.

Blood swished back along the blade, repeatedly drawing upon its essence, turning the blade of this A-grade short knife a dark red.

Boom boom boom!
The explosives thrown by the Lost Ones guild players have arrived.

Black gold bombs, source energy shells, and Apocalypse Molotov cocktails were detonated together, causing the restaurant to collapse. Luo Jianxin pulled Chief Qing down from the sky, and a huge fireball hung in the sky. Even A-level soldiers would be seriously injured by such bombardment.

In just a moment, the firelight dimmed.

Jiang He stood in mid-air, the space beneath her feet solidified, and she was completely unharmed, her clothes undamaged.

The lost players were dumbfounded.

A thin layer of silver light enveloped his body, blocking all attacks.

boom!
A Grade A mithril blood-killing bullet came flying from the rooftop three miles away. It stopped flying just before hitting Jiang He, but did not fall. There seemed to be an infinite distance between the bullet and the body. Space was distorted at this moment due to the overlap.

—Secret Technique of Power: Silver Insulator.

This is a defensive technique created in imitation of the secret art of Wuju.

The next moment, Jiang He gently pushed with his palm raised.

The surrounding space no longer overlaps, but expands.

When spaces that have been overlapped and brought together return to normal, they inevitably cause compression to the surrounding areas.

Boom!

The spatial shockwave swept outwards, resembling a giant, ever-expanding sphere. Within a radius of a thousand meters, more than a dozen high-rise buildings shattered, streets were leveled, and dozens of players were instantly killed or wounded, causing the long-awaited second round of bombardment to abort.

Boom boom boom!
Amidst the exploding fireworks, Jiang He changed his palm into a fist.

Three thousand shadow swords washed the earth like a torrential rain. Each shadow sword was a spatial coordinate. Jiang He activated the secret technique "Monarch Thunder," transforming into a streak of azure light that continuously leaped across the ground.

Whoosh whoosh!
Lightning arcs weave a death symphony.

After twenty-four cuts, all the core members of the Lost Ones Guild were dead. Severed limbs and blood flowed everywhere. Luo Jianxin lay in the ravine, his upper and lower body separated, cruelly cut in half at the waist.

Jiang He landed and glanced at the rooftop in the distance. A figure carrying a gun ran away, looking disheveled.

"It seems that the B-level sharpshooter that the Luo family sent to you is not prepared to fight to the death for you."

"Who are you?"

Luo Jianxin's eyes were dazed, and her words were slurred with blood. She knew that this guy was Di Jiang, and she had even recruited him during the Battle of Tongchuan. But Di Jiang was definitely a fake identity. His eyes reminded her of a terrifying, blurry figure, but she could not make it clear no matter what.

puff!

A single cut pierced through his brow.

[Energy: C+ → B-]
Luo Jianxin and Vice Principal Fu are both B-level, and they successfully made up for Jiang He's energy deficiencies. The moment he reached B- in all aspects, his bones and muscles burst with energy, and powers such as regeneration, survival, steel, space, thunder, rhythm, and destiny spread seven-colored patterns between his bones and flesh, greatly enhancing his body's sturdiness.

[Player Name: Mo Ke]
[Overall Rating: B]

[Hint: Your degradation zone has grown to a diameter of 300 meters]
[Note: Your six gene powers have been enhanced to the Immortal level, and your spatial power has been upgraded to the Sub-Legendary level.]
[Note: Your Forbidden Gene - Vitality is working on energy recovery; the number of Forbidden Gene - Shadow Swords has increased to 10,000; the power of Forbidden Gene - Bewitchment has increased.]
[Hint: Your spot for ignoring something has been increased by 1]
Steel is its bones, thunder is its blood, and space is its flesh.

The final degraded area covers it, like skin.

A hundred-meter-tall true self manifested, with three heads and six arms, its entire body a dark red like blood, holding six giant swords in its palms: a silver space sword, an azure lightning sword, and a jet-black steel sword, each with its own unique characteristics, majestic and extraordinary.

Advancing to B-rank means that Jiang He can fight against A-rank without needing living alchemy, officially ranking among the top combat forces in the fortress city, second only to the five S-rank demigods, and entering the inner circle.

"Thank you very much, Lieutenant General Dijiang, for your righteous help."

Seeing that the battle was over, Chief Qing emerged from behind the massive building. Looking at the corpses scattered everywhere and the remains of two B-rank experts, she was filled with horror.

"Could you please escort me back to the lakeside villa? It's under the jurisdiction of the fortress security department and is very safe there..."

The words have not yet fallen.

Jiang He turned around and reached out, grabbing Chief Qing by the neck and nearly crushing him.

This beautiful chieftain, like her daughter, is possessed by the power of destiny. If we consider the children of destiny as the protagonists of a movie, then both of them would have a significant role.

"Lieutenant General Dijiang..."

Chief Qing struggled incessantly, his face turning ashen.

Jiang He's eyes remained calm and unmoved.

The force continued to increase, and the power of destiny continued to drain away. The forbidden item, the Enemy Ring, recklessly absorbed this power until Chief Qing suffocated to death, and once again it was filled with destiny that could guide random teleportation.

Jiang He casually tossed the dried-up corpse into the ruins.

The next moment, his figure disappeared.

His spatial abilities granted him formidable mobility, but were insufficient to complete a full hunt. However, with the assistance of ample power of destiny, everything fell into place.

A few kilometers away.

The sharpshooter from the Luo family fled in panic. The spatial teleporter, Lieutenant General Di Jiang, was actually close to mastering his skills. His secret technique of insulating against attacks was a nightmare for any sniper.

"Stop running, they have no interest in chasing you."

Suddenly, a sprightly old man appeared before them, carrying a long sword on his back, looking just like an ancient figure.

"Master!" The sharpshooter was startled and immediately lowered his head. Even the family's higher-ups rarely saw an S-class demigod. The last time the family head appeared was during the birthday banquet.

"The war for succession will be decided before dawn."

Luo Youhun chuckled and said, "That little girl is probably completely unaware."
