The system panel is insane; it has a lifespan of a million years. I probably wouldn't die even if the Earth were destroyed.

The system didn't give any notification after 400 draws. Based on my experience with various novels from my previous life, I estimate I need to accumulate 1,000 draws before the system can upgrade again.

Then we need to make a plan. The system upgrade last time gave us some good abilities, so we'll keep 300 as a safety net and use the remaining 100 for upgrades and lotteries.

When it comes to making money, you should spend it when you should and save it when you should.

I've already decided on the upgrade options: time stop and fourth-dimensional space.

Time reigns supreme, space reigns supreme.

The two attributes of time and space will always be the most important.

"The system uses up attempts to upgrade Time Stop until it becomes the ultimate skill."

[Confirmed, 36 lottery draws consumed, Time Stop upgraded to God of Time] (Time Stop → Time Stop Pius → Time Apprentice → Time Grandmaster → God of Time)

As expected of a time-based skill, it consumes more uses than the God of Deception.

"The system consumes attempts to upgrade the fourth-dimensional space until it reaches the ultimate skill."

[Confirmed, 36 lottery draws consumed, Fourth Dimension Space upgraded to God of Space] (Fourth Dimension Space → Fourth Dimension Space Requiem → Space Apprentice → Space Grand Mage → God of Space)

After upgrading both skills, blood was gushing from my eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.

What's going on?! Why is this skill upgrade killing me?! I haven't even killed all the Japanese devils yet...

Hmm, it seems like I'm only bleeding but not feeling any discomfort or pain. After carefully observing, I discovered the reason.

The immortal and ageless bodies operated at full speed, each using up 100 years of their lifespan.

[WARNING!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!!]

[The host's world is a Level 1 world, where the God of Time and the God of Space cannot fully utilize their abilities; 80% of their powers are currently sealed.]

Holy crap!!! These two skills are incredibly powerful! Even the God of Deception thinks that's overpowered enough, yet the system didn't ban them. This is a time-space type, and Dio is second only to the rule-based type. After all, the classic anime JoJo has already shown me what true power is. What I'm talking about is Miracle... ... (I dare not say, dare not write, dare not even think about it).

*cough cough* I'm getting off-topic again. Wiping the blood off my body, the system ban hasn't affected my body at all. I have 28 of the 100 attempts left, time to keep leveling up.

"The system will be upgraded to its ultimate form, reducing distances to inches."

[Consuming 18 lottery draws, Shrinking the Earth to an Inch is upgraded to Teleportation] (Shrinking the Earth to an Inch → A Thousand Miles in an Inch → The Ends of the Earth → Teleportation)

10 times remaining

"The system upgrades the Five Thunder Orthodox Method to its ultimate form."

[Use 10 lottery draws to upgrade Five Thunder Orthodox Method to Thunder God] (Five Thunder Orthodox Method → ​​Purple Heaven Divine Thunder → Thunder God)

perfect!

Four more ultimate skills! Now, you little devils from Zhejiang Province, you're in for a treat!

At 4 a.m. on June 25, 1942, ten miles outside Hangzhou.

The main body is responsible for Hangzhou, while the three clones of Yi Qi Hua San Qing are responsible for Huzhou, Jiaxing, and Shaoxing. Together they attack the four cities, dispelling the "Bean Scattering Soldiers" debunking. They were the ones who piloted the plane in Nanshi before. They learn quickly, but they don't have my skills, so they are easy to kill during attacks.

The three clones were all outside their respective cities. This is the advantage of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique: each clone has its own independent consciousness and does not require the main body to worry about it. Different clones choose different combat methods depending on the city. When liberating Hangzhou, I, the main body Li Feng, chose the wildest combat method.

Shatter the darkness with thunder!

The god of deception has been activated. The reality that the people of Hangzhou are seeing now is this: eight planes are bombing the Japanese camp in the sky. The Japanese are scattering and fleeing. At this moment, a group of about ten people, fully armed, jump down from the city wall and begin to harvest the heads of the Japanese. In no time, all the Japanese in the city are dead thanks to their cooperation with the planes.

The traces of battle and corpses will naturally remain in Hangzhou, but all of this will only become apparent after I have killed all the Japanese soldiers in the city.

In the real world, I floated in the air, my body turning bright white, surrounded by nine lightning orbs.

It was so bright, like a mini sun, that even the Japanese soldiers in Hangzhou stared in disbelief, pointing at the sky, probably forgetting to even utter "Baka!" But that wasn't enough. Each of the nine lightning balls split into nine more, and those nine split into nine more, multiplying infinitely until, in the blink of an eye, the area around them was filled with a sea of ​​lightning balls.

To prevent making too much noise and startling others or attracting unnecessary attention, I locked the space. From the outside, it just looked like a cloudy day, and I couldn't see anything.

Alright, enough with the foreplay, time for the main course. All 30,000-plus Japanese soldiers in the city, not one less, are locked down.

"Thor's Wrath!!!"

I stretched out my hand, fingers spread, aiming at the city. Then I gently pressed down, and endless orbs of lightning, like an army on a command, crashed down on Hangzhou with world-destroying power!

On the city wall, a Japanese soldier carrying a Type 38 rifle saw the lightning ball rushing towards him and fired the first shot.

And then, that was it; the bullet vaporized upon contact with the lightning ball.

Bullets can vaporize, let alone humans. The Japanese soldier began to flee, managing to outrun the mine; he was the first to come into contact with the mineball. Skin, muscles, fat, bones—from the outermost layer, layer by layer, vaporized.

His entire body was like a snowman entering lava, blurring, shrinking, and becoming transparent. Finally, with a soft "poof," he and his military cap turned into a wisp of smoke.

"Ahhhhh"

"Sorcery... Demonic arts!!!"

"Run!!!"

The scene, more terrifying than reality, drove the Japanese soldiers who witnessed it to madness. They threw down their guns, screamed, and scrambled away from the city wall.

The piercing alarm blared throughout the city. The main Japanese force inside the city was still unaware of what was happening. Many Japanese soldiers had just gotten up from their bunk beds in the barracks, still half asleep, and rushed out, clutching their clothes and guns.

The highest-ranking commander stationed in Hangzhou, Uenomura Seiya, was alarmed and rushed to the courtyard outside the command post. "Baka! What's going on?! Is it a Chinese attack? Why didn't we hear any explosions?!" he roared at his adjutant who was rushing over.

The adjutant looked equally bewildered: "Reporting, Colonel! I don't know!"

"Order all troops to organize defenses..."

The command was cut short as a ball of lightning gracefully curved a bend and hurtled towards him. The guards and staff officers in the courtyard saw it too. Amidst terrified screams, some raised pistols, others drew their rifles.

Bang bang bang! Rat-a-tat-tat! The result was exactly the same as what happened on the city wall.

"Spread out! Take cover!" Ueno Murase roared, instinctively rushing towards the reinforced concrete air-raid shelter of the command post, the most sturdy bunker in the entire command post, designed to withstand direct hits from heavy bombs.

"Close the door! Close the door now!" He slammed into the entrance of the air-raid shelter and roared inside.

It's safe now... as long as we hide here...

The thought hadn't even fully formed yet.

puff!

The heavy door panel, twenty centimeters thick and sandwiched with steel plates, silently vaporized from the point in the center where it came into contact with the lightning ball. The lightning ball drilled in, and Uenomura, leaning against the wall, felt his legs go weak, but his will to survive made him make a final struggle.

He whirled around and ran desperately toward the exit deep inside the air-raid shelter, his leather shoes clattering rhythmically on the concrete. Uenomura Seiichi heard a buzzing sound behind him, but he didn't dare turn around. His lungs felt like they were being pulled apart by a broken bellows, and sweat blurred his vision.

The exit is just ahead! Hope lies ahead!

How...how did it appear in front of us?! A ball of lightning silently floated in front of the exit, blocking the way.

Uenomura stood frozen in place, his face completely drained of color, his last strength draining away with despair. Leaning against the cold wall, he slid to the ground, looking up at the beautiful yet deadly ball of lightning.

The lightning ball gently pressed against Uenomura Sei's forehead, leaving only a charred human-shaped mark on the wall.

I float in the sky, acting as a conductor, my left hand wielding two index fingers, directing heaven and earth to play a symphony of destruction for me.

This is not a battle, this is a cleansing, this is divine punishment.

About four or five minutes have passed? Maybe less, I'm too lazy to check the time.

In Hangzhou, more than 30,000 Japanese soldiers were all wiped out, not a single one was left.

The bright white light around me dimmed, dispelling the spatial barrier. I timed it and sent a message to headquarters an hour later.

Before long, General Mi Gu arrived. He was Old Chen's deputy corps commander, in charge of Zhejiang Province.

The telegram from headquarters told him to come and take over Hangzhou. He knew what was happening in Jiangsu Province, but he didn't expect to arrive in Zhejiang Province so soon.

Upon arriving in Hangzhou, it was indeed as Old Chen had described in his telegram: completely safe and secure.

The troops successfully took over Hangzhou and pacified the people. I didn't stay to watch; today's announcement was quite urgent—to liberate the entire province, then hurry to the Northeast, find the Japanese army, and slaughter them! Slaughter them!!! Slaughter them!!!

Dancing on their graves.

Cool, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome.
