"Brother Chuan!" March 7th looked at him with concern.
Gu Chuan ignored them and fixed his gaze firmly on the gray-haired girl who was hugging a trash can and looked bewildered.
"—Your turn, you girl with no money, no status, and no job."
He spoke calmly, his voice not loud, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly.
"Huh? Me?" Xing pointed to herself, looking confused.
“That’s right,” Gu Chuan nodded, his eyes seemingly able to see through the dormant, terrifying star core within her body. “Only you can deal with this monster. Or rather, only the thing inside you can deal with it.”
“I trust the Observer’s judgment,” Dan Heng said immediately. He and Himeko exchanged a glance and both saw agreement in each other’s eyes.
“Star, go,” Himeko encouraged. “Try… to communicate with the power within you.”
Under everyone's gaze, Xing nodded as if she understood. She put down the trash can in her hand and slowly closed her eyes.
In that instant, the whole world seemed to fall silent.
A massive, golden torrent of energy, like a dragon awakening, suddenly shot into the sky from Xing's petite body! Her gray hair moved without wind, and she slowly floated in mid-air, enveloped in a sacred yet destructive golden halo.
Deep within Xing's consciousness, she arrived at a shattered, endless sea of stars.
On the throne of the starry sea sat a godlike being whose majesty could not be described in words.
His body was broken and battered, as if it had experienced countless births and deaths of the universe. Countless deep wounds that revealed the bone covered his divine body, and golden divine blood, like a rushing galaxy, slowly flowed from the wounds.
Nevertheless, the sheer power of pure "destruction," which was enough to make the stars of all worlds tremble and instill instinctive fear in all life simply by existing here, remained so intense that it was suffocating.
It is Nanuk, the "destruction" star god.
However, just when Xing thought he was about to be completely swallowed up by that divine power, a sudden change occurred!
The immense golden energy emanating from her body, belonging to the star core, did not heed her call. Instead, it seemed to have found its true "master," transforming into a dazzling golden stream of light that traversed space and directly and proactively entered the body of the black-haired boy not far away!
"--What?!"
Everyone was stunned!
The golden stellar core power, filled with the laws of destruction, surged into Gu Chuan's right hand like the most docile pet, frantically and greedily! His entire right arm was instantly covered by a layer of shimmering golden energy exoskeleton, resembling the enhanced form of a doomsday beast!
An aura of "destruction" that was purer, more powerful, and of a higher level than that of the Doomsday Beast erupted from Gu Chuan's body!
Although he didn't know the specifics of how this power was used, he could clearly sense it—
"The scales of victory," he slowly raised his right hand, enveloped in golden light, a cold smile curving his lips, "have already tipped in my favor..."
"
"Roar--!"
Seemingly sensing this threat, which originated from the same source but was even stronger, the Doomsday Beast's last remaining, still intact, white giant claw roared towards Gu Chuan with its final and most frenzied attack!
However, this time, Gu Chuan didn't even use the word "reflection".
He simply and casually made a grasping motion in mid-air with his right hand, which was enveloped in golden energy, towards the oncoming white giant claw.
"—Vector fixed crushing."
*Snap!*
That indestructible white claw, powerful enough to crush a 4.2-dimensional satellite, along with the surrounding space, was gripped tightly by an invisible hand! Then, amidst a heart-wrenching scream, it was brutally and utterly crushed at the microscopic level! Shattered!
It's no longer a rebound, but an absolute, unreasonable... crushing defeat!
Gale winds are generated out of thin air in a vacuum because vectors are forcibly manipulated!
With the help of the howling golden hurricane, Gu Chuan's figure transformed into a streak of light tearing through the darkness, heading straight for the monster's last and only vital point—
That malevolent "antimatter core" that's beating wildly!
The rampage and new enhancements of the 101 Star Core
With the help of the howling golden hurricane, Gu Chuan's figure transformed into an undeniable stream of light tearing through the darkness, heading straight for the monster's last and only vital point—the frantically pulsating, evil "antimatter core"!
Time seemed to slow down infinitely at this moment.
On the surface of that ominous "antimatter core," Gu Chuan's calm yet cold face could be clearly reflected.
He didn't use any fancy moves or chant any complicated spells.
He simply clenched his right hand, which was completely enveloped in brilliant golden energy filled with the concept of "destruction," into a fist.
Then, he threw a punch.
"—The End."
boom--!!!!!!!!!!
An indescribable, terrifying explosion, enough to silence the entire universe, detonated violently in the chest of the Doomsday Beast!
That seemingly indestructible core, composed of "antimatter energy," was as fragile as glass before that fist, which was enveloped by a higher-order "destruction" law. It was easily pierced, shattered, and annihilated!
"—Awoooo ...
The Doomsday Beast let out its final, most mournful, and silent roar, filled with resentment and despair. Its enormous, star-like body, centered on its shattered core, began to rapidly disintegrate and crumble like a sand sculpture weathered by wind, ultimately transforming into countless pure golden specks of light that completely vanished into the cold, desolate universe.
The battle is over.
However, a new crisis followed one after another!
With the demise of the Doomsday Beast, the massive star core power that surged from the star's body, having lost its target, instantly went out of control!
"Woo..."
Xing let out a painful groan as her petite body was enveloped by an even more violent torrent of golden energy, floating uncontrollably in space, as if she might explode at any moment due to this overwhelming force!
"Oh no! The power of the Star Core has gone out of control!" Himeko's face turned deathly pale instantly.
"Star!" Dan Heng and March 7 exclaimed, but dared not approach the violent energy storm rashly.
Just as everyone was at a loss, a calm and reliable voice suddenly rang out in the communication channel.
"Don't panic, leave it to me."
A gray-haired man with glasses, a refined air, and a black cane appeared not far away. He casually pointed his cane lightly towards the star.
That seemingly ordinary cane was like a black hole capable of sealing everything, instantly absorbing, suppressing, and sealing all the rampaging golden energy on Xing's body!
The newcomer was none other than Walter Yang, the navigator of the Star Train and the former leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.
As the energy was sealed, Xing finally exhausted herself. With her eyes closed, her petite body plummeted downwards like a kite with a broken string.
Gu Chuan's figure flashed, appearing just below her and catching her limp body steadily in his arms. Holding this girl who had just been fighting alongside him but was now unconscious, he gently carried her back to March 7's side.
This calm and reliable action earned Himeko and Walter Young a hint of approval in their eyes.
"Thank you for your help, sir." Walter adjusted his glasses, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Gu Chuan and the still trembling "Alicia," filled with inquiry and curiosity. "May I ask who you two are...?"
“We are just observers passing by.” Gu Chuan did not answer directly. He glanced at the “Doomsday Journey” countdown timer on the chat group interface and a playful smile appeared on his lips.
He pointed to March 7th, who was busy taking care of Xing, and said to everyone in a tone that seemed to be shifting blame, "You can ask her about our origins. I think she will give you a satisfactory answer."
"Huh?! Me?!" March 7th pointed at himself, looking completely bewildered.
Before she could even react—
[Ding! The time limit for the mission "Emu Three Flags Leek Walk Skirt" has expired, and your companions will be returning soon!]
Gu Chuan and Alicia's figures began to rapidly become transparent in a burst of dazzling golden light, and finally, they completely disappeared into this cosmic space.
After a brief moment of surprise, Walter, Himeko, and Dan Heng all turned their questioning, curious, and scrutinizing gazes toward the only "insider" present—March Seven.
"Um... well... the thing is..."
Looking at the oppressive gazes of the three big shots, March 7th stammered, his mind blank, and he was so anxious that he almost cried.
In the real world, at Gu Chuan's apartment.
Gu Chuan's figure reappeared on the soft sofa.
He glanced at the blonde girl in his arms, who was sleeping like a little pig with drool still dripping from her mouth, smiled helplessly, and gently put her back on the bed.
Then, he opened the system interface and began to take stock of his gains.
[Doomsday Points: 132,800]
(Clearing Tokyo Evil Spirits: Approximately 30,000; Nami World: 2000; March 7th World: 3000; The remainder is accumulated from lotteries and daily tasks)
A staggering sum of nearly 200,000!
"It's time for a buff."
Gu Chuan opened his attribute panel without hesitation.
[Physical Enhancement (Grade B)]: L3 L4 (MAX)! Points required: 5000.
【Intuition (A)】: L3 L4! Points consumed: 10000557.
He prioritized maxing out his B-level physical enhancement and also raised his A-level intuition by one level to compensate for his lack of combat experience, which might be a weakness in close combat.
Through this enhancement, he also roughly deduced the upper limit of the system's ability level.
It seems that the upper limit of B-level abilities is L4, C-level might be L3, and abilities above S-level are very likely... to be able to be improved indefinitely.
After completing the enhancement, he turned his gaze to the alluring [Gift of Fate] roulette wheel.
After the last ten-pull was completed, the roulette wheel slowly came to a stop.
This time, there was no earth-shattering power or constitution, only an ordinary-looking, simple scroll.
[Ding! Congratulations, Observer! You have obtained the [Class C Skill Manual] – [Six Styles Training Manual]! A superhuman martial art technique kept secret within the Navy, encompassing six techniques that surpass the limits of human endurance: Shave, Iron Body, Paper Drawing, Moon Walk, Tempest Kick, and Finger Pistol!]
"Six types?"
Gu Chuan looked at the skill book, which was of little use to him, but a smile flashed in his eyes.
While he himself wouldn't need it, for his close group members like Eriri and Sayuri, who were still in the "mortal" stage, this cultivation manual was undoubtedly the best gift for self-defense.
102 Zanpakuto and the Unbreakable Root
Gu Chuan looked at the "Six Styles Cultivation Manual," which was of little use to him, and casually tossed it into his system space, intending to give it to Eriri and the others as a self-defense technique later.
His attention remained focused on the roulette wheel, which was full of infinite possibilities.
Ten spins of the roulette wheel, and this is just the beginning.
However, what happened next made this observer, who called himself a "lucky one," feel the malice from a "lucky one" for the first time.
[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]
[Ding! Thank you for your patronage!]
……
A series of "Thank you for your patronage" made Gu Chuan's lips twitch involuntarily. It wasn't until the ninth time that the roulette wheel lit up again.
[Ding! Congratulations, Observer! You have obtained the [Rank C Skill Manual] – [Introduction to Armament Haki]!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Observer! You have obtained the [Rank C Skill Manual] – [Introduction to Observation Haki]!]
Two more "common" books from the Nami world.
"It seems that luck really does run out at some point," Gu Chuan chuckled self-deprecatingly.
He pinned all his hopes on the final lottery draw.
The roulette wheel spun wildly once more! This time, the light it emitted was far more dazzling and blinding than ever before!
Finally, with a resounding, soul-stirring ringing sound, like a sword being drawn from its sheath, the pointer came to a steady stop in an area that shimmered with a chilling black light and a holy white glow, representing the [S-rank] level!
[Ding! Congratulations, Observer! You have obtained an S-rank ability—a Zanpakuto! A materialized weapon of the soul from the world of Bleach! This is an ability, not an item! It will automatically generate unique Shikai and Bankai forms based on the essence of your soul! You are the sword, and the sword is you!]
"A Zanpakuto? Not bad."
Gu Chuan nodded in satisfaction. Without hesitation, he opened the enhancement interface again.
[Ding! Consume 61,000 Doomsday Points to upgrade the S-rank ability [Zanpakuto] to L4?]
"Yes."
[Ding! Strengthening successful!]
Thus, Gu Chuan's personal panel once again underwent a tremendous leap forward.
