Integration into the System
The Main Mission received an overall S rating. This was also the first time Xu Yue had earned an S-grade evaluation in a mission whose upper limit was the difficulty of a full Reincarnator.
His Wood Clone’s efforts had not been in vain.
As for A-rank and B-rank missions, including the ones left unused from previous missions, he still had nine A-rank and thirteen B-rank missions remaining.
He had used some A-rank missions when learning the Outer Path: Secret Technique, but selling those ninja swords had made up for it. Combined with the surplus from this evaluation, he had accumulated a fairly considerable number of A-rank missions.
Since the Lelouch world had not granted any additional time extension, his income in Reincarnation Points this time was also quite substantial, totaling more than eighty thousand points. The overwhelming majority came from the Reincarnation Points awarded alongside the overall evaluation.
But compared to those standard "salary" rewards, the most important gain from this mission had been directly devouring the entire C World using the foundation of his Rinnegan!
He had accomplished this entirely through the power of that SS-Rank item. Otherwise, even if Lelouch’s world was merely an "ordinary" mortal world, the unconsciousness of billions of people was not something Xu Yue could have swallowed.
Not only had the Tsukuyomi space been greatly strengthened, but the AT Field’s power had also increased drastically. Even his own soul had undergone some sort of transformation on a deeper level.
Combined with Code’s abilities, Xu Yue felt that even the fundamental nature of his biological existence had changed.
Just considering the enhanced Tsukuyomi space alone, Xu Yue felt that he might even have a chance to carry out the Infinite Tsukuyomi together with Madara and the others.
As for the AT Field, it was something with a defensive capability even more direct and terrifying than Shinra Tensei, practically serving as a barrier between the spiritual world and the material world.
And after Xu Yue had absorbed the entire C World, the strength of this AT Field was probably already quite close to that of an ordinary Angel’s AT Field.
After all, the loot he had picked up was probably only the easiest-to-obtain Water Angel flesh and blood. It had been entirely boosted by the C World, but after being influenced by the C World, its essence had already transcended the limitations of its original vessel, gaining the potential to evolve and improve further.
Huh? Was an AT Field merely close to that of an ordinary Angel embarrassing?
An ordinary Angel’s field strength was nothing special either. It could only tank an N2 blast at point-blank range or something. Its power was merely at the level of a small nuclear bomb…
As for the transformation in Xu Yue’s own soul, it left him feeling even more inexplicably unsettled. His already isolated heart seemed even more incompatible with everything around him, and he constantly had the illusion of becoming a lofty "god."
For no reason at all, he found himself looking down on other humans from an illusory perspective of superiority.
Xu Yue had a premonition. Compared to those obvious increases in ability, these unseen changes in essence—changes that had not manifested in his strength—were actually the true reason the Space had gone to such lengths to stop him…
"An A-rank mission! An A-rank mission just vanished like that! Oh my god!"
A clear female voice rang through the central plaza of the "Wu-8" district, indignant and nearly screeching, drawing countless looks.
An A-rank mission was news that would attract the attention of most people, not just in the "Wu" district, but even several districts above it.
After complaining for a while, Sun Lin looked at the only three people remaining beside her and fell completely silent, seeming to let out a soft sigh.
"It seems I really am not suited to be a captain."
An elite Promotion Mission team from the Beiyang Army, a major legion ranked second, had been reduced to only half its members. How was that any different from an ordinary unaffiliated team?
Fang Ting, the woman with Glasses, and Zhou Qiang, the team’s second-in-command, both looked somewhat lost. The two of them seemed to have suffered brief memory loss due to that violent impact, while everyone else had died in the tsunami raised by the collision.
"No matter what, everyone completed their Promotion Mission. The Space has already begun sending prompts. Go back to your own rooms and perform the district transfer. Remember not to choose the wrong place—the ‘Ding-2’ district. Of course, if you’re confident you can handle the trouble, you can also go to other districts."
They had failed to obtain the A-rank mission, and more than half the team had been killed or injured. Although they had luckily obtained a B-Rank Plot during the mission and received a decent final evaluation, Sun Lin seemed to have suddenly lost all interest.
She did not even maintain her cold and aloof facade anymore. A trace of sorrow appeared on her pretty face. Then, without another word of farewell, she vanished from the spot and returned to her residence.
Zhou Qiang and Fang Ting also seemed unable to move on from the previous mission. After greeting Xu Yue in turn, they left as well.
Xu Yue naturally had no other reaction. He urgently needed to use the Intermediate Training Card to test and train his new abilities, preferably integrating them fully into his existing system…
A jonin continuously leaped through the forest, carefully observing the casually standing figure in the large clearing at the center.
He then launched a probing shuriken attack. The instant he threw them, he completed the hand seals for the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique.
A dense swarm of shuriken shot forward, but those shuriken, which at the jonin level were like high-speed fragments, seemed to strike an invisible, insurmountable wall as they neared the figure.
Golden-red polygonal ripples spread continuously through the empty air, as though extending endlessly into infinite depths.
By then, the jonin had already moved to another direction, his hand seals complete.
Water Release: Water Severing Wave!
A sharp stream of water like a high-pressure cutting jet sprayed from the jonin’s mouth, striking Xu Yue from the other side, only to be blocked by an identical barrier.
It was as if that defense had no blind spots at all.
All that awaited him was Xu Yue’s slowly raised hand. As Xu Yue flicked a finger, the polygonal barrier seemed to undergo a violent transformation.
It was as though the section touched by Xu Yue’s finger had been pierced through, then followed the direction of his finger, endlessly extending and tearing outward.
Although its strength continuously weakened with distance, it still instantly pierced through the jonin’s body.
Then it spread outward.
Riiip—
A cross-shaped explosion erupted.
His entire body was torn into fragments.
Within the training space, this simulated enemy at the jonin level had not even caused a ripple before Xu Yue erased him outright.
"The combination of Shinra Tensei and the AT Field is still somewhat uncoordinated, but it’s already fine on a small scale."
Shinra Tensei itself was a powerful repulsive force, while the AT Field was an absolute domain akin to a world barrier. Since both were controlled by him and both had corresponding connections to the Rinnegan that had devoured the C World,
once fused together, they could use absolute repulsion as propulsion, transforming it in turn into an absolute attack! It was somewhat similar to the offensive methods of certain Angels.
Beyond that, Xu Yue also tested the combination of the AT Field and Susanoo, as well as the fusion of several abilities while in Sage Mode, one by one.
He integrated this new power into his system.
The results were quite good.
What left Xu Yue slightly helpless was that perhaps because he lacked an S2 Engine, the AT Field’s consumption acted on both his mind and body at once, overlapping with Chakra to some extent.
Fortunately, his fully developed Sage Body had been refined through the entire Lelouch storyline, then further strengthened and refined by four Intermediate Training Cards. Its current total reserves were still fairly impressive.
In terms of Chakra quantity, he had already reached the standard of quasi-Kage-level.
Although that was still somewhat embarrassing compared to a fully developed Sage Body, considering the amount of time he had spent refining it so far, he was already far, far, far beyond ordinary people.
It was simply because he had too many abilities that consumed massive amounts of energy, so this advantage had not shown itself…
T-Today there are only two updates… Please spare me…
