I've already reached the maximum level, and you guys are just starting out?

Chapter 166: Mechanics in the left hand, numerical values ​​in the right, repeated instant kills!

Mars, Mariner Canyon.

The embers, crackling with lightning, stood suspended in mid-air.

3.1% exceeding the limit, 6% unlocking the limit, a value of 60...

The human faction and the fallen were both deathly silent.

Ember, however, did not want to waste any more time.

He only wants to be beaten to death by everyone here, or to beat everyone here to death.

and so……

"open!"

Yu Jin had a sudden thought.

Talent: Enhancement!
Ability: Split Lv9!

Om-!
above the sky.

The figure of the embers became illusory and blurry.

It was only a fleeting moment.

Seventeen identical figures appeared in the sky above the canyon.

The embers themselves have a value of 60.

The clone inherits 70% of the attributes, reaching a value of 42.

In terms of sheer numerical values, even Athena and Machi, with 1% over-limit, only have a combined stat of 39...

boom--

Boom——!
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of people on both sides were stunned.

Ember, without saying a word, started to fight.

The familiar encirclement, the familiar ninth-tier starting move.

March is receiving the same treatment as Holland.

"Ninth Rank, Earth Explosion Star!"

"Ninth Rank, Dimensional Cage!"

"Ninth Rank, Forced Union!"

"..."

Ember's sixteen clones attacked simultaneously.

Various ninth-tier attribute abilities instantly overwhelmed Ma Qi.

"what--!"

The center of the encirclement.

March's screams could be heard.

Even though he possesses powerful attributes and combat talent, but...

He was simultaneously besieged by sixteen Embers with a combined value of 42, and he didn't even have a chance to fight back!

Bang-!
March turned into a blood mist.

"Ok?"

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly.

The system did not provide a kill reward.

"Another talent for sacrificing oneself?"

Ember thought of Holland and squinted at the center of the encirclement.

Om-!
The void trembled.

March's figure emerged from it.

"You, damn it!"

March's face was extremely grim.

Black mist began to surge wildly within his body.

A strange light flickered in his dark eyes.

The temperature in the entire Mariners Canyon seemed to have dropped a few degrees at that moment.

Faintly, one could even hear the howling of a cold wind.

Above the canyon, a huge and illusory blood moon appeared above March's head.

Even the embers felt a strong threat from that blood moon.

and so……

"Cause and effect, reincarnation!"

Yu Jin raised his hand, not giving Ma Qi a chance to gather his strength.

Bang-!
In the sky.

The blood moon, which was gradually solidifying, suddenly vanished.

March was once again overwhelmed by various ninth-tier abilities!
Compared to just now.

This ninth-tier ability came without warning, without even showing the process, and directly made a damage determination.

Therefore, before March could even mount a defense, he was once again reduced to a cloud of blood mist with a 'bang'.

"Not dead yet?"

"How can they live so long?"

Yu Jin stared in astonishment at March, who had reappeared in the void not far away.

Swah——

And just then.

Athena, who had been stunned, finally came to her senses and flew to Ember's side.

"It's a resurrection-type talent."

Athena seemed to sense Ember's confusion and offered an explanation.

How many times can I live?

Yu Jin got straight to the point.

Athena was slightly taken aback.

In her opinion, Ember shouldn't be able to launch an attack like that consecutively...

"several times?"

Yu Jin pressed for an answer.

Athena took a deep breath and spoke in a deep voice:
"He should be equipped with a high-level resurrection talent, capable of resurrecting at least five times within a day."

Resurrection-type talents are not uncommon in advanced civilization federations.

Almost every member of the powerful and wealthy families was provided with one.

The only difference is the level of the 'Resurrection' talent.

The higher the level, the more times you can revive and the shorter the cooldown.

Athena is also equipped with an advanced resurrection talent, allowing her to revive five times in a single day, returning to full health each time.

"it is good."

"Five times it is fine."

Ember nodded and raised his hand again.

"Cause and effect, reincarnation!"

This is the fastest and safest way to kill March.

The first unexpected sneak attack allowed all subsequent damage calculations to be completed.

In theory.

As long as the embers can hold out, they can kill March an unlimited number of times.

Left hand: numerical values; right hand: mechanics.

How do you respond?

"Human crawler—"

In the sky.

March's figure reappeared.

His angry outburst came to an abrupt halt the next moment.

Bang-!
March, died.

"the third time!"

Yu Jin remained silent, only raising his hand.

"Cause and effect, reincarnation!"

In the sky, the 16 clones had already become illusory.

This time, in the cycle of cause and effect, Ember will have to pay a small price.

【Cause and Effect Costs】

The threshold for lifting restrictions has decreased by 0.5%.

Unlike the situation on the Wasteland server, the form of cause and effect has changed in Wasteland Online.

"0.5%?"

Upon seeing the improvement, Yu Jin was immediately delighted.

Snap!
He raised his hand and produced a 'fifth-tier limit-breaking stone'!
Because it was consumed too quickly, it led to...

The stats of the Ember's unlocked value hadn't even had time to drop before they were fully restored!
"Oh--"

"So this is how the Limit-Relief Stone is used?"

Yu Jin felt like he had discovered a new continent.

He was originally frustrated that his thousands of limit-breaking stones were just gathering dust.

"In that case, then..."

"continue!"

While forming hand seals, Yu Jin also ate stones.

boom--

Boom——!
Above the sky, the 16 illusory and almost transparent clones made their move once again.

The strange thing is—

The clone attacked without any energy aura.

Can be biased.

At the center of the encirclement, Machi, who had just appeared out of the void, was once again overwhelmed by more than a dozen ninth-order abilities!

Light, thunder, space, earth surge, wind...

A chaotic mix of more than ten attributes!

Even March, the young master of the Constantine family, couldn't withstand such a shameless fighting style!
"You fucking——"

March is resurrected for the fourth time.

His cursing was still forcibly silenced.

"..."

Athena fell silent.

On the canyon floor.

The two sides that had started the war because of Ember's sudden move also temporarily stopped.

They hadn't even had a chance to 'engage in close combat' yet.

But March in the sky has already been killed four times.

"This……"

"How come the Ember Brothers are so powerful?"

"He plays like he's cheating!"

Within the human camp.

Aaron Ferguson, the leader of Aaron's team, felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

a few days ago.

He even treated Ember as a newbie and recruited him into his team.

But now?
Even Athena paled in comparison to him!

"you--"

"Damn it, damn it!"

In the sky.

March has appeared once again.

Meanwhile, Ember, while consuming the Limit-Release Stone, activated 'Cause and Effect Reincarnation' once again. "The fifth time."

Ember smiled and offered a gentle reminder.

Bang-!
March, died.

In the void, March reappeared.

He kept taking deep breaths, trying to find a way to break through the encirclement.

but……

The embers' true form continuously activated a spatial confinement using a value of 60, firmly trapping it within this space.

That is why he was forced to keep resurrecting on the spot.

After being resurrected, he was immediately subjected to the negative state of 'cause and effect cycle' and repeatedly experienced 16 attacks from ninth-tier abilities with a total value of 42.

After failing to break through, March gave up resistance.

Just as Athena said, his advanced resurrection talent allows him to resurrect five times in a single day.

Now, in a very short time, all five opportunities have been used up.

He knew he was completely finished this time.

Ultimately, it was his carelessness that caused the problem!

The first attack was taken, and I didn't dodge!
"You, just you wait!"

March stared intently at Ember, as if trying to imprint his image completely into his mind.

"Good."

Yu Jin smiled and pointed.

"Cause and effect, cycle of reincarnation."

Bang-!
Marchi turned into blood mist once again.

And this time.

When the blood mist dissipated, his figure disappeared from the void.

As a fallen player from a higher-dimensional civilization, March certainly has many other trump cards up his sleeve.

But it's a pity.

One wrong move and the whole game is lost.

Ember gave him no chance to retaliate.

Throughout the entire story, March's only experience was death, resurrection, death, resurrection...

[You, with the body of a low-dimensional ant, have defeated 'Sixth-Tier, Level Nine Fallen One—March Constantine', a being of a higher level!]

Such a magnificent feat, an underdog overthrowing his superior, will shake the very foundations of the universe!

[Wasteland Origin Point +190 million!]

[You have obtained the following resource: Tier 6 Unlock Stone *1]

The system notification indicated that the appointment had been made.

Following closely behind were the spoils of war of the strong—

You have acquired one of his talents!

[You have awakened a new talent: Resurrection (Advanced)]

[Effect: Resurrects with full health upon death (Wasteland and Wasteland Online only)]

[Number of times: 0/5]

Cooling time: 24 hour

"Ok?"

Yu Jin's eyes lit up immediately.

This 'resurrection' talent is obviously extremely overpowered.

If it weren't for the even more abnormal mechanism of 'cause and effect reincarnation', even with a numerical advantage of 60, it would not have been easy to kill March.

"You have great talent, you're mine now!"

Yu Jin was in a great mood.

Ever since.

I casually cast a 'dimensional prison' on the land below.

Om-!
Spatial fluctuations spread.

It was just a fleeting moment.

Tens of thousands of the fallen vanished.

They were left forever on the Martian surface, transformed into two-dimensional lines and black pixels.

Regrettably.

Yu Jin waited for a long time, but the system's reward notification did not arrive.

obviously.

In the short term, unless he kills a higher-level Fallen One like March, he won't be able to easily obtain more rewards.

The system's 'repeated triggering' mechanism still has some limitations on Ember.

"pity."

With a sigh, the embers slowly fell from the sky.

The moment he stepped into the 13th energy nexus—

[You, with the body of a low-dimensional ant, single-handedly repelled the fallen beings of a higher dimension and successfully occupied 20 planets!]

Such a magnificent feat is breathtaking and awe-inspiring!

You have received a reward.

【Planet K-2 (20/20)】

This reward will be active the next time you log in to Wasteland Online!

"Ok?"

Yu Jin stared at the last sentence, pondering for a long time.

Will it take effect on the next login?
What do you mean?
[Beep beep——]

A cold, mechanical voice suddenly resounded in the hearts of all the human players.

[The human faction has won in Wasteland Online!]

You have defended civilization and protected the galaxy!

"Gone?"

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow.

Just a couple of flattering words?

There wasn't even any substantial reward?
Ember looked up at Athena in the sky.

She was staring blankly at the air.

"Oh--"

"Looks like all the rewards went to the faction leaders. We guys are just doing all the work."

"I don't know how to enter the game as a faction leader..."

“Working for someone else all the time isn’t a good thing.”

As Yu Jin shook his head, this thought popped into his mind.

And the next moment.

hum-

Spatial fluctuations spread out, enveloping him.

This is the end of Wasteland Online, and I'm about to be forcibly logged off.

"ember!"

The last moment before going offline.

A clear shout reached Yu Jin's ears.

"Which planet in the Federation are you on...?"

Yu Jin didn't hear what Athena said next.

He guessed that they were most likely trying to find out his identity.
hum-

The embers disappeared.

Energy Hub Camp No. 13.

Athena, suspended in mid-air, stared blankly at the vanishing embers.

not far away.

Tens of thousands of human unlockers who were still online were even more astonished by this scene.

Their shock at this moment was even greater than that of Ember repeatedly killing March.

"This is..."

"The Speaker of the Federal Parliament's daughter!"

They don't know.

Ember was forced offline due to login restrictions imposed by the 'High Dimension Helmet'.

Therefore, in their eyes, Yu Jin's behavior at this moment had an added implication of 'rejecting the Federation's daughter'.

……

……

A3 Wasteland Planet.

Dawn City, Sky Tower.

At the deepest part of the tower, within the core area.

On the ten-meter-long bed, Naya took off her white socks, her short legs dangling precariously by the edge of the bed.

Her large eyes were fixed on Ember, who was sitting upright in the center of the large bed, wearing a helmet.

The latter has maintained this state for a full thirty days.

During these thirty days...

Thanks to the massive spatial teleportation channels that Ember established before leaving, Dawn City has successfully conquered the entire planet A3.

nowadays.

All of the more than 20,000 refuge cities on planet A3 have submitted to Dawn City.

In the words of Earth—

All under heaven belongs to the king, and all within the four seas are the king's subjects.

During this period, Dawn City also advanced from level 6 to level 9.

Its subordinate cities subsequently surged to ten thousand.

Ten thousand subordinate cities—this is undoubtedly an extremely exaggerated number.

This has never happened before in the hundreds of years of history of Planet A3.

The Blue Star players in Dawn City are now immersed in pride and joy every day, and are overjoyed.

but……

Nyarlathotep, however, could not be happy.

On the contrary, she became increasingly worried as time went on.

Dawn City has conquered Planet A3, and its ascension to the wasteland of the star system is now a certainty.

What will become of Kenaya City and Moor Star?
Nyarlathotep didn't know—

I wonder if I've now become someone who's latched onto Yu Jin's coattails.

Despite having free access to this core area, and despite always following Ember as a maid.

but……

The eighth-tier evolved beings in Naya City told Naya that this was neither safe nor secure.

Over the past thirty days, the millions of citizens of Moore Star have watched Dawn City grow stronger and stronger, and an atmosphere of anxiety has also spread and expanded.

They weren't jealous of Dawn City's development, but like Nyarlathotep, they were worried about not being able to board the big ship that was Dawn City.

"Well……"

Naya's little face was all scrunched up.

She thought of the 'knowledge' her subordinates had shared with her.

A blush rose on Naya's face.

"That kind of thing..."

"It sounds so..."

"It's very astringent..."
