He just broke up with his girlfriend and is already living with the devilish rich girl.

Polaris's heavy Type B armor was fully deployed.

The main chest armor slid open to the sides, and the shoulder armor flipped and folded at the same time, revealing dozens of densely arranged honeycomb-like firing ports.

Each hatch was illuminated with platinum-gold energy-charging patterns, and the fire control system completed target locking and ballistic calculations in the same instant.

[Full Barrage - Saturation Attack]

The next second, all the launch ports roared simultaneously.

Platinum-gold high-energy laser beams shot out in a staggered pattern, converging into a destructive rain of light covering hundreds of meters above Youdu.

The beam density is extremely high, leaving almost no gap for dodging.

The ground was plowed by scorching rays of light, the stone slabs instantly vaporized, and the air expanded violently due to the high temperature, forming concentric circles of white shock waves.

Those kneeling citizens of Youdu instinctively closed their eyes, yet were not affected by any beam of light.

The fire control system established a no-fire zone with extremely high precision, unleashing all its energy on the man standing before the throne and all his possible escape routes.

Boom boom boom boom boom—!

The explosions continued in unison, completely engulfing the square.

The ground shook violently, and smoke and shockwaves swept in all directions, causing secondary collapses of the building ruins.

The shattered walls rolled outwards like waves.

Before the smoke and dust had even cleared, the throne of bones had already turned to dust.

The ground at the center of the bombing was forcibly sheared down several meters, revealing a charred, lava-like depression.

Shen Er remained standing in the center of the depression.

His body was charred black, and his skin was covered with laser-scalded wounds, with blood flowing down from the cracks.

A dark red stream gathered at their feet.

His clothes were almost completely destroyed, some muscle fibers were exposed, and the bone was even visible on his left shoulder.

But he did not fall.

He looked up, a twisted smile spreading across his face.

"Haha...hahahahaha!!"

He stuck out his tongue and licked away the blood from his lips. There was no anger in his pupils, only a morbid fanaticism stimulated by the battle.

"That's more like it! That's the kind of battle I've been wanting!!"

He stomped his foot hard on the ground, and the scorched earth beneath his feet exploded.

He was launched into the air like a cannonball, leaving a crater several meters in diameter behind him.

He instantly broke through the smoke and fire, appearing in front of Polaris, and grabbed the head of the mecha with his right hand.

Pure physical strength suddenly erupted.

He grabbed the mech's head and slammed it down, throwing the entire suit of equipment into the distant ruins.

[System activated! Emergency evasion!]

Polaris forcibly ignited its back thrusters in mid-air, and the vector nozzles spewed out blue-white flames, causing the mech to quickly adjust its posture.

When both feet land, they plow two deep grooves into the ground.

He had just regained his balance when Mirage Two's figure was already right in front of him again.

"Bang--!!!"

Shen Er unleashed a punch, while the mecha's left arm simultaneously swung out an alloy iron fist.

The two fists collided, and a visible white shockwave erupted from the point of contact, spreading outwards.

It blew away all the gravel within a 30-meter radius.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Mirage Two laughed loudly, his forearm muscles bulged again, and his strength increased layer by layer.

The ground beneath their feet cracked under the strain.

"My power is gravity! As long as you creatures live in this world, you will never escape the bondage of gravity!"

He grabbed the mecha's forearm with his backhand and exerted force.

The structure of the Polaris armored system emitted a sharp hiss of metallic fatigue.

"No matter how amazing your robotic toy is, it still has its limits! No matter how high you fly, you can never escape the control of gravity!"

After obtaining the soul of its kin returned by Mirage One, Mirage Two's power has greatly increased.

At this moment, his gravity ability was fully activated, covering the entire square.

Sparks flew from the shoulders of the Polaris mech, its internal gravity sensor issued an overload alarm, and its legs sank into the ground.

Mirage grabbed the mecha's arms, lifted it high, and then slammed it hard into the ground.

boom!

Upon the first impact, the ground cracked, and an impact crater tens of meters in diameter was formed instantly.

He lifted the mech again and slammed it to the other side.

boom!

The second impact crushed large areas of building ruins into powder and broke steel bars.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each impact caused the earth to tremble violently.

The second mirage repeatedly slammed the North Star like a giant hammer, its rhythm frenzied and relentless.

The original remaining plaza ground was completely destroyed, leaving only an ever-expanding broken area in the smoke and dust.

The outer armor of the Polaris armor finally gave way, the main armor plate on the chest fell off, and the weapon array on the left shoulder was completely destroyed.

The right arm joint was broken, and the entire machine was smashed deep into the ground like scrap metal, with only half of the torso exposed outside the ruins.

Shen Er was about to give chase, preparing to tear its heart apart.

A cold, sharp blade flashed silently toward the back of his neck.

There was no murderous intent, nor was there any sound of wind being cut.

The blade seemed to grow naturally from the shadows, aiming straight for the gap in the cervical vertebrae.

Shen Er's hair stood on end instantly.

He instinctively gave up the pursuit, pushed off the ground with his right foot, and leaped to the side in a nearly disheveled backward posture.

The blade flashed, leaving only a very shallow bloodstain on the left side of his neck.

After landing, Shen Er took three steps back and nervously touched his neck.

The moment his fingertips touched the blood, his face turned terrifyingly grim.

"Hey, hey..." he growled, his voice filled with suppressed rage.

"What...what were you just trying to do...?"

"You just tried to kill me?!? You actually dared to kill me?!"

Zheng Yueyao held the Blood Fiend in her hand, coldly staring at him, the tip of the blade pointing diagonally at the ground.

"Heh." She sneered.

"You're angry, which means you really almost died just now, and you're scared, right?"

Shen Er's expression was almost contorted into a tangible rage.

He stared intently at the knife in Zheng Yueyao's hand.

The knife didn't look special; it didn't have any supernatural energy fluctuations, high heat, or energy entanglement.

But just a moment ago, a strong warning of death did indeed come from the depths of his soul.

What exactly is this ability?

Before he could reach a conclusion, he suddenly heard the sound of wind breaking behind him.

A "Shen Er" that looked exactly like him appeared behind him and punched him in the back of the head.

"Bang!"

Caught off guard, Shen Er was sent flying, tumbling several times on the ground before crashing into a broken wall.

"Hahahaha! How does it feel to get punched by your own strength?!"

The imposter "Shen Er" let out Tao Ye's signature arrogant laugh.

This is her special ability.

【Myriad phenomena of the universe, like flowers in a mirror and the moon in the water】.

It can perfectly replicate the abilities and appearance of any target it sees.

But there are limits to copying.

She cannot replicate the power involved in rules and concepts, such as the abilities of Luo Yao, Li Muge, and Zheng Yueyao.

The replicated state cannot be maintained for long periods of time.

However, Mirage Two's gravity ability is sufficient for her use.

She flexed her fingers, which were exactly the same as Shen Er's, with a smug look on her face.

Shen Er crawled out of the ruins, his face covered in dust and his head throbbing with pain.

Before he could even regain his footing, another figure had already cut in from his side.

Zhou Xuetong.

"You trash!! Insects!!!"

Enraged, Shen Er abandoned his attack on the imposter and focused all his anger on Zhou Xuetong, who was standing right in front of him.

A punch, carrying terrifying force, slammed into her head.

Zhou Xuetong thrust her longsword diagonally, using the blade to contact the surface of her fist and deflect the force.

The kinetic energy absorption instantly absorbed the kinetic energy contained in Shen Er's punch.

The force of the punch suddenly disappeared, and Shen Er's body paused slightly due to inertia.

In the next instant, Zhou Xuetong converted all the absorbed kinetic energy into the slashing force of her own blade, causing the blade to rise against the current and slash forward fiercely.

This strike incorporated the power of Shen Er himself.

"Pfft—!"

The blade slices through the air and flesh.

A deep, bone-revealing wound was slashed across Shen Er's chest, extending from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, and the edges of the wound were torn apart by the shockwave of the terrifying kinetic energy, exposing the internal tissue.

Zhou Xuetong changed her stance and used the momentum to retreat cleanly and swiftly without pausing.

Get out of the way!

The cold, mechanical voice rang out again.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Xuetong pushed off with her right leg and leaped backward.

next second.

Miniature bombs, high-energy lasers, tracking missiles, and armor-piercing shells rained down from the sky.

It covered the area where Mirage 2 was located like a violent storm.

[Full Barrage - Destruction Mode]

Polaris has switched to S-class Destruction Weapon mode.

This time he held nothing back, opening all weapon channels and launching missile arrays, laser cannon arrays, and electromagnetic armor-piercing projectiles simultaneously.

The explosion's flames and shockwaves overlapped, tearing the earth apart and creating deep trenches that stretched outwards.

The continuous bombing lasted for more than ten seconds, leveling the entire square and sending plumes of smoke into the air.

"We worked together so well! The problem here is solved!!"

Just then, Qingyao, who was hanging in mid-air, weakly opened her eyes.

"Run...run away..."

"This man... isn't that..."

She didn't finish her sentence.

A tremendous pressure, several times stronger than before, suddenly descended, as if the entire sky were pressing down on the ground.

The air in the square became thick, and everyone felt as if they were being held down by an invisible giant hand, their knees going weak.

"What... kind of power is this...?"

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

Mirage II stood up from the center of the explosion.

The arrogance and sickness on his face had completely disappeared, replaced by an extreme indifference.

His gaze was like that of a completely different person, condescending and devoid of emotion.

"You guys... are indeed very strong."

He slowly raised his right hand, palm facing up.

"But you don't actually think that what I just did was my full power, do you?"

"The fact that I can be called 'Shen Er' means that my power is second only to that monster Shen Yi."

"But do you really think I got to this position because of my brute strength?"

He snapped his fingers together.

"Power release, pain transfer, equivalent exchange."

In the next instant, the invisible chain of cause and effect was forcibly altered.

"Snap—!"

In mid-air, the Polaris mech, which had just regained its combat capability, collapsed again without warning.

The armor plates burst open from the inside, the joints twisted, and countless parts scattered from the air.

On the ground, Zheng Yueyao, Tao Ye, and Zhou Xuetong all coughed up a mouthful of blood at the same time.

Countless deep, bone-revealing wounds instantly appeared on their bodies.

Laser burns, blast injuries, and blunt force fractures correspond perfectly to the locations of the wounds Shen Er had previously suffered.

The three men collapsed to the ground like puppets with broken strings, blood seeping from beneath them and mixing with the scorched earth.

Meanwhile, the wounds on Shen Er's body healed and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The charred tissue falls off, new flesh grows, and the skin recovers.

In the blink of an eye, he had fully recovered, as if he had never been injured.

He was able to transfer all the damage he received to the enemy in an instant.

Qingyao was defeated by this very move.

She had gained an absolute advantage and was almost ready to deliver the final blow.

However, all the wounds he had caused backfired, and he instantly lost his fighting ability.

Shen Er walked slowly toward the group of people, his steps neither hurried nor slow.

"You should be proud. The wounds on your bodies prove that you are really close to killing me."

"But unfortunately, it was just a little short, only a tiny bit short."

"Haha...hahahahahaha!"

His laughter was calm yet cruel, like inspecting spoils of war.

Zheng Yueyao used the knife to support herself on the ground, trying to stand up.

As soon as she straightened her arm, another mouthful of blood spurted from her mouth, and her body fell heavily back to the ground.

Tao Ye and Zhou Xuetong were both on the verge of death, lacking even the strength to try to get up.

Shen Er walked up to Zheng Yueyao and looked down at her.

"You are the most dangerous."

"If that knife had landed squarely on me, I probably wouldn't even have had time to initiate an equivalent exchange."

Zheng Yueyao looked up.

Blood flowed from his forehead into his eyes, turning his vision a dark red.

As she gazed at that cruel, smiling face, she felt for the first time an emotion called despair rise from her chest and sink into her limbs.

That kind of power is invincible, unavoidable, and impossible to find a weakness in a short time.

Shen Er slowly raised his palm, gravity condensed again, and the surrounding air hummed.

He was ready to end the battle.
