Chapter 301 My subordinates are actually in charge of logistics.
World leader.
These four words swirled in Chen You's mind and quickly became synonymous with "divine core".
He embedded the Shadow King's divine core into the Demon Suppression Tower of Baiyujing, directly covering the entire guild territory with a permanent mythical-level barrier called "Shadow Veil".
Not to mention that he also got the mythical skill "Shadow Clone" for free because of it.
Right now, within this crack before us lies the projection of another being of the same level.
Chen You's gaze gradually intensified.
"Xiao Dai." Chen You sat in his wheelchair, his body slightly stiff. "You just said that this projection can't be killed because you're afraid the Star Sea King's true form will notice and come to retaliate?"
Shadow King Dai remained kneeling on one knee. Upon hearing the question, the soul fire beneath his mask flickered twice.
"Your Majesty, that is indeed the case. That old fellow has a violent temper; if he knew we had killed his projection, he would definitely go mad."
"Very good." Chen You nodded in satisfaction, his gaze fixed on Shadow King Dai.
"In that case, can you destroy this projection?"
Shadow King Dai was startled by Chen You's expectant gaze.
As the current highest representative of the Shadow Royal Court, how could he say no in front of his own Majesty and superior?
He straightened up abruptly, his chest armor clapping loudly, and said in a firm and resounding voice, "Absolutely!"
"Your Majesty, don't let my current appearance fool you. Back then, I was the most valiant general under the late King!"
"A mere projection depleted of energy? My men need only draw the Shadow Greatsword and unleash a single 'Shadow Slash' to obliterate it!"
As Shadow King Dai Yue spoke, he became more and more excited, as if he could already see the glorious scene of shattering the Star Sea King's projection with a single sword strike and establishing himself as an invincible commander in His Majesty's mind.
Chen You nodded, satisfied with the answer.
"Then kill him."
Shadow King Dai responded loudly, "Alright!"
One second later.
The soul fire beneath the mask of the Shadow King abruptly froze, and his previously straight back hunched slightly: "Huh?"
He was just bragging along with the conversation!
"No, Your Majesty, what did you just say?" His voice began to tremble.
"I said, go and chop him up. Didn't you say you could wipe him out in one move?" Chen You looked at him as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"Your subordinate... Your subordinate..." Shadow King Dai stammered, the flames under his helmet flickering wildly, trying to find a respectable excuse.
"I believe that this is, after all, a mess left behind by the late king. If we act rashly, what if Star Sea King comes to kill us..."
"It's alright, I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong." Chen You waved his hand, displaying the demeanor of a monarch.
Shadow King Dai almost cried.
Are you going to hold it in?
What do you have to bring to make Neptune's true form descend?
"But Your Majesty, that projection is currently sealed at the center of the array. If I were to attack it forcefully, it might cause the mine to collapse and harm innocent bystanders!"
Shadow King Dai continued to argue.
Chen You sneered.
He finally understood.
This Shadow King Dai is a complete and utter master of empty talk.
Expecting him to fight the BOSS? I doubt he could even draw his sword.
"Since you're afraid of hurting innocent people, then I'll help you."
Chen You took out a crystal that emitted a faint blue light from his backpack.
It was the "Star Soul" he had gathered from defeating monsters that was the key item to unlock the seal.
He walked to the edge of the abyss crevice, lowered his head, and looked down at the faintly shimmering starlight in the darkness below.
The deep bass, booming and pounding, still echoed in the crack.
"Yo! Why is that black metal plate up there so quiet? Is it afraid of my invincible rhythm?"
Chen You remained expressionless and released his right hand.
The azure star soul transformed into a free-falling object, precisely landing in the abyss rift.
"Your Majesty! No—"
Shadow King Dai let out a shrill scream and scrambled toward the crevice, trying to grab the star soul.
But his massive body seemed incredibly clumsy at this moment, and he could only watch helplessly as the Star Soul disappeared into the darkness.
hum-
The entire Zangxing mining area suddenly trembled.
A visible blue wave of energy surged from the bottom of the abyss, instantly tearing apart the shadow barrier.
The wasteland mine began to shake violently, and countless pieces of rock and metal parts fell like raindrops.
"Warning! Warning! High-energy reaction has exceeded critical threshold!"
Red warning boxes were flashing wildly on Chen You's system panel.
The thumping sounds from below the crack abruptly ceased, replaced by an extremely arrogant laugh.
"Hahaha! Three thousand years! A full three thousand years! I can finally see the light of day again!"
boom!
A blinding silver-blue beam of light pierced through the sky and earth.
Within the beam of light, a figure about three meters tall slowly rose up.
That's not some bandage monster at all.
It was a humanoid creature with deep blue skin.
He was wearing a set of futuristic, streamlined silver armor, the surface of which shimmered with a dazzling light like a galaxy.
Most striking was the white bandage that extended from his waist, hung over his shoulders, and wrapped around his arms.
Those bandages were no ordinary objects; they moved without wind, resembling two agile white dragons encircling his body.
The Star Neptune projection hovered in mid-air, slightly twisting its neck and emitting a crisp cracking sound from its bones.
He looked down at Chen You and Shadow King Dai below, a slow smile playing on his lips.
"They're finally out. Where's that tin-clad guy who was pointing a sword at me?"
"Come out, let me give you a full-body treatment!"
The sound projected by Star Neptune has a strange electronic reverb, and with each word, a visible ripple spreads through the surrounding space.
Chen You looked up.
【Star Neptune - Projection (Weakened State)】
【grade:???】
[Status: Seal broken, energy rapidly recovering. Current combat strength assessment: Extremely lethal.]
Looking at the series of question marks and the red "extremely lethal" warning, Chen You took a deep breath.
Sure enough, this game system is a total rip-off.
What Shadow Court Agent, what hidden faction storyline—to put it bluntly, this is still a boss battle prepared exclusively for him, the player!
Chen You turned his head and looked at the Shadow King Dai who was lying on the ground.
"Xiao Dai, it's your turn to perform." Chen You pointed to the Star Sea King projection in the sky.
The Shadow King's massive body trembled violently.
He slowly turned his head, and the soul fire beneath his mask had shrunk to a tiny speck of light the size of a mung bean. His voice was clearly choked with sobs.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
He used both hands and feet to quickly crawl to Chen You's feet and grabbed Chen You's leg.
"Your Majesty is wise! I was just boasting! I'm actually in logistics! My main responsibilities include inventorying supplies for the royal court and ensuring security at the site!"
"That old monster has broken free of his seal, and I... I really can't defeat him!"
Chen You's lips twitched violently as he watched Shadow King Dai clinging to his leg and frantically shifting blame.
What a great security captain who handles logistics!
The AI design of this Origin World system truly embodies the phrase "borrowing the tiger's might" to the extreme.
The projection of the Star Neptune in the sky raised its hand, and the bandages wrapped around its stars raised their heads like venomous snakes.
"What? Have you two decided who will go first to die? Or are you planning to come at me together and dance for my comeback debut?"
The Star Neptune projection snapped its fingers, and the surrounding air instantly froze, transforming into countless sharp starlight blades that pointed at Chen You and the other person.
Chen You gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.
"Xiao Dai, get out of the way, don't get in my way."
Chen You kicked Shadow King Dai away and stared directly at the Star Sea King projection in mid-air.
"Singing, dancing, and rapping, right?"
He sneered, and the Nine Revolutions Primordial Chaos Technique within his body began to operate wildly, with violent spiritual energy surging into the Jade Emperor Sword along his meridians.
"Today, I'll show you what real rhythm is!"
