Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

[March 7th: Oh, there are exclusive rewards too? The previous Herrscher of Reason core sounded pretty strong, this one should be even stronger, right?]

[Bai E: Is he powerful enough to help Onpharos change his fate and break the cycle of eternal reincarnation?]

……

"Change fate?" Lai Gushi shook his head slightly.

Impossible. Such things might exist in the universe, but they are at an extremely high level.

The arrogant star god anchored the moment, and this, in a very strange way, temporarily made Him an ally in the matter of the Iron Tomb's birth.

How far would it take for Bai E to change this situation, if he were to do it alone?

"The possibility always exists, but... it's extremely slim."

……

[Star: Maybe, after you get the reward, you won't just scratch Nanuk's eye; you might actually give him a lightning bolt!]

[Haha: Why should He be rewarded?]

[Bai'er: Huh? They're here!]

In the private screening room for the Golden Descendants, a pillar of fire as thick as a man rose from the ground before Bai E's eyes. In this room, which resembled an audience chamber, the pillar of fire stretched from the ground to the sky.

The Golden Clan retreated immediately, like startled birds.

"What is this thing?!" Xia's eyes narrowed sharply as he drew his gun, as if facing a formidable enemy.

The heat from that pillar of fire was terrifyingly intense! If he got even slightly closer, he felt as if his entire body was being broken down into billions of particles, and then all of them were about to be ignited.

A judgment that was completely inconsistent with their strength appeared in the minds of the Golden Descendants—in front of this thing, even if they unleashed their full strength, they would be ignited like kerosene and burned to ashes in the blink of an eye!

Heather shielded Caesar behind her.

They looked at the pillar of fire with apprehension, but Bai E seemed immune to its heat; he reached out his hands and peered inside as if possessed.

"Bai E!" Wan Di shouted urgently, trying to stop him.

This guy usually seems pretty clever, but now he's acting like a complete idiot. What is he trying to do? Commit suicide?

But before he could take his first step, Bai E reached out and pulled, and a towering pillar of fire condensed in his hand amidst swirling clouds.

"Whoosh!" The remaining flames vanished in the wind.

A pair of exquisite silver and black pistols lay quietly in Bai E's hands.

The terrifying heat in the air dissipated rapidly, leaving the Golden Descendants somewhat bewildered.

"This is..." Bai E stared blankly at the weapon in his hand, "This thing looks so frail."

It's too light. For someone who's used to using a heavy sword, holding something like this and going "biubiubiu" would just suffocate him.

Xia's brows twitched slightly at that moment: "If you don't want it, you can give it to me."

[Bai Er: Everyone, what is this thing? Photo.jpg]

—【Ding! Rewards distributed. Bai E has obtained: Heavenly Judgment (Concept Enhancement Version)】

[Walter: Pfft!]

"Cough cough cough..." Walter coughed lightly, waving his hand to use a simulated black hole to absorb all of Himeko's hand-ground coffee that was sprayed out.

He was internally pounding: What a close call! We almost capsized in the gutter.

But he didn't spend any extra time on that; instead, he stared intently at the pictures and text on the screen.

Caiuslana... Divine Judgment of Heavenly Fire...

He felt as if he were in a hallucination. Could it be that after he left Earth, another collapse destroyed the current civilization, and then the whole world ushered in a third civilization called Onpharos?

These things look so familiar!

"Uncle Yang, are you... are you alright?" The three children looked at his strange behavior with puzzlement.

Dan Heng calmly asked, "Mr. Walter, this... you know him?"

……

[Bai E: Heavenly Fire Judgment, the name sounds very powerful. But how effective is it?]

[Star: I think we have a director here? @LinShuo.]

[Lin Shuo: Let me see. It comes from another world, one of the Keys of God, also known as the Key of Destruction. After adapting to this universe and being strengthened by the Ranking System, it gained unparalleled power and sublimation, and the characteristics that would harm it were erased.]

[Bai E: This thing used to harm itself?]

[Lin Shuo: Of course, nothing can escape its fate of being burned. Even water and soil, the natural enemy of fire, become excellent accelerants in its presence.]

[Bai Er: This actually works?]

Bai E's mouth opened slightly as he stared in astonishment at the two light pieces of iron in his hand.

"This...isn't this going against the natural order of the Heavenly Stems?"

[Black Tower: At first glance, this thing violates the laws of physics. However, it must be mastering a higher set of rules, right?]

[Lin Shuo: You guessed right! This strange object possesses an unreasonable core ability—manipulating particle motion. This ability grants it the power to distort everything; it can destroy all entities, even souls! And its most convenient and obvious use is to create flames by causing molecules to move violently and chaotically. Even the unenhanced original version is enough to annihilate a star.]

[March 7th: Wait, why does this look a bit like that one I mentioned before...]

[Fu Xuan: Entropy increase. If this is the case, then this thing could easily conjure fusion bombs, even nuclear explosions, and neutron weapons—all technologies readily available. And the most chilling aspect… it could turn people, or rather, enemies, into bombs?]

[Star: Huh?!]

"No, buddy, this thing is..." Portio looked at the revolver in his hand, then at the picture of the Judgment of Heavenly Fire. Envy twisted his expression.

An idea, an extremely crude idea, is spreading throughout the entire universe—this is just too outrageous!

……

"A fusion bomb..." Bai Er blinked his clear, innocent eyes. "What's that?"

Fortunately, he understood the second half of the sentence: not only could he kill the enemy, but he could also turn the enemy into a tool for combat, killing two birds with one stone!

The Golden Descendants looked at each other in bewilderment, while Wan Di stood silently with his arms crossed.

Saifei's hair stood on end as she said with lingering fear, "So that's what it felt like to be burned by the flames—almost turning into fuel, or even a human bomb?!"

That ability to manipulate molecules, even for those at their level, seems to offer no resistance.

[That Summer: What's the way to resist? Is there no way to isolate ourselves from the effects of this ability? Are we just lambs to the slaughter?]

Theoretically, he actually kind of hoped this would happen, since it wouldn't affect him anyway...maybe.

However, reason told him that such a wonderful thing probably didn't exist in the world.

[Lin Shuo: Of course, it can't be effective on everyone. However, the Heavenly Judgment before us is much stronger than the original. If the user's strength is equal, it can have no effect for 10 minutes, after which it will begin to burn in a localized area. To completely avoid it, there would have to be an overwhelming difference in strength.]

[Bai E: Then... if I take it, will I be able to fight the Burning Wind?]

[Star: Huh? What are you going to do?]
