Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The continuous sound of explosions rang out, and the Void Army was instantly blasted apart and blown away. The originally dense wave was torn apart, creating several gaps in an instant.
But this was more than just the sound of the Void creatures being blasted apart.
Hiss...
Li Aozi spread his hands, letting a dust-like primordial matter fall from his fingertips, carried away by the wind. Then he imdiately drew an axe and a disc from space, without any technique or understanding, directly squeezing with all his might, rcilessly wringing out the institution’s performance.
Weak Force Decay Induction
Liberate the Weak Force, accelerating its half-life, with no unnecessary technique. Even social institutions, as long as they exist in this universe, cannot escape the constraints of the four fundantal forces.
——Elental decay releases radiation, and if civilization decays, what would it release?
Gravity imdiately stored energy, spiraled to its limit, and was launched instantly, fired as a projectile into the midst of the Void Army.
——The answer is: Barbarism
The axe instantly crashed into the Void creature, slashing and slicing it, stirring up a bloody storm. It then quickly collapsed and disintegrated outward.
The essentials gathered by [Society], the soil of civilization, cultural elents, and citizen population were rapidly ejected.
The Void’s coral reef was suddenly filled, burst, and subrged by appearing continents and rivers. The energy released in just an instant surpassed the total of millions of hydrogen bombs exploding.
Rugged encampnts rose from the ground, spreading elents that Dragon Satellite had never had before throughout the air, forming an entire ecosystem out of thin air on Dragon Satellite.
When the smoke of the explosion cleared, the Void creatures suddenly found a group of strange beings in their sight.
"Damn! What is this place!?"
Fierce white-haired orcs crawled one by one from the center of the explosion. They lacked any aura of Pathway, yet their individual strength was formidable.
"I vaguely rember that our Great Chieftain Okfenis should have led us to complete the great transformation..."
"Hey, this doesn’t look like the battle paradise."
"Wait, I rember, Great Chieftain Okfenis indeed succeeded in the transformation, but we were sliced off in battle."
Xides’ face under the mask was displeased, frowning even more after hearing these remarks.
"How could the disintegration of [Society]’s institution turn into this? It’s unheard of."
Though Xides was surprised by this, it was rely surprise.
The Void, as a narrative, evidently didn’t rely solely on the power of Pathways. Nihilism would treat every defiant being the sa.
Human Wave Tactics? Nihilism would deconstruct every existence without limit, making each individual disenchanted with their origin and existence, choosing destruction and disintegration willingly.
What the Void does best is dissolving the enemy’s unity, making them believe that self-destruction offers true redemption and peace.
Coupled with the pervasive mana burning effect in the Void, it effortlessly pierces through any Spellcaster.
From the Void’s tidal flats, a group of Void Priests chanting scripture quickly erged, their nurous tendrils spreading from their heads, directly transmitting their narrative ideology through the Void.
A major feature of the Narrative Civilization is facing a consciousness offensive; even with specific soul defenses, the subtle influence is irresistible.
Especially before the powerful infectious narrative of the Void, nihilism pervades every corner. Under the persuasive guidance of the Void Priests, listeners frequently beco indecisive, sensitive, and pessimistic, and it is at this ti that nihilism’s thoughts take advantage, rapidly occupying cognitive heights. For the weak-hearted, it’s like delivering coal in the snow.
"Co, embrace the Grand Narrative of Nihilism!"
The air reverberated with the ideology of Nihilism, the tide of ideas almost becoming tangible, flowing like water and calming the previously restless white-haired orcs. They stood still, watching the approaching Priests.
A Priest, feeling his mana successfully invading the orcs’ thoughts, was overjoyed. To augnt the effect, he quickly stepped forward a few paces, doubling down on the rendering of Nihilism.
The orcs remained docile, silently watching the Priests closing in, showing no inclination to resist.
"Hmph, just as I expected."
Xides cast a spell, sending a ssage to Li Aozi:
"If this is your trump card, you’d better pray that when your soul falls into the Nether Abyss, it won’t be too shattered by the torrents."
"Don’t rush."
Li Aozi said calmly:
"If I were you, I wouldn’t let the Priests get too close."
"Do you know why I didn’t personally take action to eliminate you?"
"Because you can’t hit , and can only wage a war of attrition?"
"No."
Xides said:
"Leoz, I want you to see clearly: a usurper is just a usurper. As soone unorthodox like you, in front of the real Starry Abyssal Spirits, you are aningless. Your trump cards will run out eventually, while my capabilities are endless. I intend to thoroughly shatter your hope! To take, seize, and destroy everything about you—just like you did to back then!"
"So you still can’t hit , only engaging in attrition." Li Aozi responded.
"Leoz, your rhetorical prowess is aningless; the cold reality will utterly crush you. I truly look forward to that mont—when you’ve lost everything, exhausted, worthless, and destitute, and beg for rcy at my feet!"
"You can’t hit , resorting to a human wave attrition."
Li Aozi said:
"In fact, even if you use a human sea tactic against , it’s useless. You’ve seen my institution—Xides, why bother with this? I never intended to wipe you out—I am loyal enough to the Starry Abyss, even if I rob you of everything, at least I’ll spare your life."
"Shut up! You usurping tyrant, your existence is a calamity to the Starry Abyss."
Xides squinted his eyes:
"I just thought of a good plan—Leoz, I will capture you alive and bring you into the narrative of nihilism, no matter how long it takes, I will persist until I completely integrate you into the grand narrative."
"Is that so?" Li Aozi said indifferently, "What a pity, I still haven’t had the thought of killing you. In terms of age, I am your senior."
"Now, you can have it."
Xides had evidently learned his lesson, even though Li Aozi provoked him repeatedly, he did not beco angry and step in personally.
Facing Li Aozi now, the only outco if he stepped in would be allowing Li Aozi to stack attributes. With attributes stacked too high, as soon as Li Aozi fires a Death Link Arcane Missile, Xides won’t be able to do anything to him.
Nevertheless, Xides was still very confident because the advantage was entirely on his side.
Just look at those void priests, it was clear Li Aozi had no room for counterattack.
Crash!
An axe flew and smashed into the forehead of a void priest, causing its body to twitch violently before falling to the ground, disintegrating and rging into the void below.
"Chatter, what’s the deal? Here’s a slash for you."
"I can’t understand at all, what is all this void? How many legions does the void have?"
"That tentacle-headed fellow kept babbling on about my thoughts deserving my suffering, damn it! I was fine and suddenly got insulted, it’s baffling."
"Who cares, these purple-skinned baldies are so ugly—oh, this planet looks nice, let’s take it down."
"Good idea, but I’d like to make a slight modification—"
"Modify what—charge ahhh!"
What’s happening?
Xides was dumbfounded.
Compared to him, the front row of void priests were even more bewildered, before they could react, as the vanguard, they were imdiately trampled by the massive charge of the white-haired beastn. These beastn, without any armor, relied solely on the strength of their bodies to violently crush and break through the void’s forces.
Xides hurriedly withdrew the void priests—these were not his private properties, but valuable clergy of the void narrative; each loss was irreplaceable.
But it was too late, Xides quickly realized these white-haired beastn, seemingly primitive and backward, were incredibly powerful. Even though they had no communication devices, their organizational coordination was stronger than the regular army of the narrative civilization.
Unafraid of retreat, they resolutely obeyed orders, executing each person’s task perfectly like well-oiled machinery.
They weren’t just machines; even machines couldn’t coordinate with such precision.
Even more terrifying to them, the nihilistic erosion, usually unstoppable, was aningless before these suddenly appearing beastn tribes.
"Hey."
Li Aozi stroked his chin:
"Seems like that institution I just lost is no ordinary thing."
He vaguely rembered that the battle axe seed to co from a dium-sized Predator Society.
"Retreat, retreat!"
What was its na again...
"Roar oh oh oh oh!!!"
Almost every beastman’s will was unwavering, instantly breaking through the void’s defenses. The cohesion that the narrative civilization prided themselves on was nothing in front of these beastn.
"Oh, I rember now."
Li Aozi slapped his palm, suddenly understanding:
"The Headless Society Okfenis."
Too much ti had past, he’d almost forgotten, that battle axe seed to be his main target back then.
Because it wasn’t just an institution, that axe was the war fortress of the predecessor civilization of the Headless Society.
"But placing it on the Dragon Satellite, it’s just right."
These headless citizens—no, since they’ve been liberated from the "society," they are now freen.
Simply put, by acquiring this institution, you could imdiately transform these freen into the finest, most united warriors.
They wouldn’t be interfered with by any grand narrative because they’ve long ford a community more united than any narrative—the society.
Though in their consciousness, they might think they’re still at that mont before ascension, in reality, each of them has been following the Headless Society for countless years of conquest, and the civilizations that have been absorbed have long beco part of their bodies.
Using it here is just right.
"To deal with narrative, indeed, you must use ’society’!"
