Infinite World: Random Characters, Start with Red Archer

Accel World...

Something that can devour the user's spirit, driving them into a berserk madness...

In a sense, it is a product of possession.

"This thing's combat power depends entirely on the target it possesses and the power it accumulates..."

Slightly interested, Han Ming wanted to see what would happen after the transformation.

Because of its accumulated combat experience, the Armor of Calamity has the ability to "predict the future," enabling it to predict all enemy attacks with extremely high precision. It also has the power to absorb the enemy's blood and convert it into its own, and it can even give the target a slight possibility of evolution.

The most outrageous thing is that anyone who has been parasitized by it, even if they break free of its control, will have their moves and abilities copied and passed on to the next possessor by the Armor of Calamity.

It's like if the previous incarnation was someone with the Sharingan, then the person this time possesses will also have the Sharingan.

In addition, even after being defeated, they will directly infiltrate the attacked party and wait to make a comeback, which is actually quite disgusting in a certain sense.

Its special abilities seem to be quite strong, but its actual combat power is based on the combination of the possessed entity.

If someone too weak gets involved, the best they can achieve is a 1+2 level.

Choosing a suitable "body" and target might allow one to evolve into a super strong person.

"Clap!"

Holding the card in his hand and silently chanting "transform," Han Ming suddenly realized that he was transforming.

My body feels very light...

Clang...

It smashed to the ground like a basin, leaving him speechless for a moment.

"Speaking of which... it's really not used to not having hands or feet."

It was as if he was lying on the ground, with a very low field of vision. Although he could move, it was very awkward.

"Mental pollution... um..."

"It's the type that's triggered when someone possesses you."

"He's a control freak."

After thinking for a while, Han Ming moved to the training space and looked at the standing wooden stake.

It's one of the only two things that's truly good about Black Ball, allowing him to practice his moves by shooting at targets.

Its body disintegrated, turning into a cloud of black mist that enveloped it and disappeared.

With almost no difficulty, he climbed onto the wooden stake.

"Uh..."

The wood, which was originally lifeless, began to generate energy, vocal cords were forming, and its blackish shell became more prominent.

"Controlling things that are completely unconscious is quite easy."

"But if the other party has a strong mentality, perhaps they can resist."

"Damn it, isn't this possession?"

"And this thing doesn't come with built-in save functionality, right? I have to do it myself?"

After extending wooden hands and feet and walking a few steps, Han Ming gave a brief assessment.

He never imagined that he would have such an inhuman experience.

Unlike cards like Josuke Transformation and Archer, the Armor of Calamity is a completely inhuman character card.

"Seriously... if you can possess the enemy's carry and control them during a team fight, that would be awesome."

After roughly anticipating where this card might come in handy, Han Ming figured it would be used against the strongest among the other participants.

Especially in team battles, the pressure can explode when the opposing team suddenly loses a player and gains a stronger enemy.

"Although it's a bit troublesome to get started at first, you can actually possess those characters in the story."

"It just looks too evil, which makes it easy to attract targets."

Returning to its original state and putting the character card away was a rather interesting experience.

"You have to choose the right place to use it. If you go to a place with a bad environment, it's easy to give it away for nothing."

Compared to other cards, this one is the most dependent on timing.

If you don't choose the right time to enter, something bad might happen.

"Fortunately, even if this thing gets blown up, you can use the remains to possess it and hide."

It does have a certain foundation in terms of survival ability. Even if the Armor of Disaster is defeated, it will appear on the person who defeated it. It just depends on the situation when it will be triggered.

Those who are more vigilant might be dealt with a second time before they even win the resurrection match.

"Hmm...why not find a chance to go back to the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure world or the Bleach world and let the Armor of Calamity gain some experience?"

The Armor of Calamity can inherit the abilities of the possessed being.

He could actually consider using this thing to find someone in the past world to "build his foundation".

"Uh... but it's not really a good place to go, you'll be in big trouble if you get caught."

"As for the Grim Reaper... I might consider going there when I have time."

After thinking it over, Han Ming set his goal.

"Looking at it this way, all three cards are actually pretty good."

Returning to his original form, Han Ming held the card in his hand and nodded with great satisfaction.

Aizen, Yamamoto, the Armor of Disaster...

Aside from the last one being a bit abstract, all three character cards are quite strong.

"Ignoring compatibility, if we were to fuse the Armor of Calamity with some character cards, wouldn't some bizarre situations arise?"

Unlike other cards, the Armor of Calamity requires possession to unleash its combat power.

If the situation becomes one where "fighting" is possible from the start, that would be a more advantageous choice.

He muttered to himself, seriously considering whether he could raise the Calamity Armor into a "Little Demon Buu".

"But the targets that can fuse with this card..."

"From a compatibility perspective, there's not much to it."

Leaving things aside for now, Han Ming returned to his room and began to think about what to do.

There are still nearly four days until the next major battle.

It's also important to let the Hogyoku undergo the cleansing and verification process by the black orb, and then test the completion rate of each character.

"It will take quite a bit of time."

Overall, he has a lot to do.

"Let's check the enhancement rewards first. I wonder if Aizen's counts."

Han Ming, who hadn't yet taken the previously placed option, turned his attention to the black ball.

The other party also appropriately released the options.

[Given that Aizen was not arrested beforehand, allowing the world's progress to remain unchanged, two special enhancement options are granted (this option cannot be selected repeatedly for the same character; Aizen, Yamamoto, and the Armor of Calamity are excluded from the selection)].

"Nice! That really works."

Although there were only two special enhancements, Han Ming still found it very satisfying.

It's important to know that special enhancements are far more valuable than ordinary ones.

"It's just not as big as Diablo's..."

“That’s true. After all, we need to stop Ichigo this time. Sometimes, just a few words can make him stop.”

"I can even stop pursuers from the Soul Society..."

Unfortunately, the special enhancement bonuses for all characters in the JoJo world were not replicated.

But considering the difficulty involved, this seems to be normal.

Ichigo isn't the type to indiscriminately kill innocent people. Even if he hadn't intervened, at most he would have just cut Aizen down and allowed him to be captured.

Therefore, what really needs to be prevented is premature imprisonment.

Given Aizen's temper, he probably won't give the judges a pleasant look.

Once they're locked up, they'll have no way out...

Even with the power of a transcendent being, without the enhancement of the Hogyoku, he would likely be reduced to nothingness.

"If we only have two chances... let's see which card elicits a stronger response."

Instead of rushing to choose blindly, he took out all the cards.

He has no idea which card to use in the next world.

Therefore, it is necessary to "inspect the goods" in advance.

See which card has the greatest impact on the world.

"Ok?"

But unexpectedly...

Aside from Red A, Aizen, and Yamamoto being relatively small, the other cards are all excellent.

"Does that mean this world doesn't have a complete energy system?"

If we were to pinpoint the common thread among Archer, Aizen, and Yamamoto, it would be their magical power (spiritual power).

But the current feeling in the world is that you can use these three cards, but it's not highly recommended.

Han Ming then deduced that the three people's abilities and strength were probably suitable for the local area, but because of the problem with their energy (magic and spiritual power), they could not be replenished.

Blackball once said that some character cards are not suitable for the local environment, so it is best not to force their use.

"Josuke, Daijo, King, Diablo, Armor of Calamity..."

None of these five cards stands out particularly.

"If even King doesn't show any rejection reaction, then the claim made by the United Black Ball is highly unpredictable. Isn't that a bit too much of a stretch?"

Looking at King's card, Han Ming was at a loss for what to do.

Despite having unlocked a decent boost to his domineering aura and the constraints of the one-fifth limiter, he still couldn't fully unleash his potential.

Therefore, it will definitely not be used as a priority.

Josuke is doing pretty well now, but he really doesn't have the confidence to use him in this world.

Crazy diamonds are still not a safe bet in some situations...

As for Da Qiao...

He passed on it immediately.

If it were the set of Demon Slayer, he might have considered going in to be Muzan's strictest grandfather, but he'd rather not go into this unknown world.

Therefore, the only remaining options are Diabolo and the Armor of Calamity...

However, since the latter wouldn't receive any special enhancements this time, and he needed to play it safe, Han Ming made a decision.

"Let me see Diablo's special enhancements."

This should be the second time Diablo has been chosen, including previous ones.

The black ball then displays the corresponding options.

[The deletion time has been extended to 30 seconds]

[Time Deletion Optimization (During the time deletion period, the user can touch objects; this has no effect on units with life force)]

[Epitaph MAX (When triggered, it will directly jump to this ending, ignoring restrictions)]

[Panel Enhancement (excluding growth potential)]

"Every time I see the special enhancements, I want to select them all."

He looked longingly at the options, truly reluctant to give them up.
