"Chapter Two: The Tale of Twin Stars"
「1999, Solar System, Neptune」
The Supre Supre floated in the vastness of space, appearing so insignificant yet so indomitable.
Behind him hovered the pale blue ice giant, its mist-like atmosphere swirling endlessly like a backdrop. Far in the distance, the sun, though 4 billion kiloters away, was still dazzlingly visible.
"On May 20th, 1999, the Ark Troops from the two major arms of the Milky Way Galaxy assembled once again and charged into the Spatial-Temporal Chaos Array."
"According to the Heavenly Maiden Sovereign’s scouting, the Ark Troops consist of 80 combat units this ti. The combat difficulty is high."
"Battle objectives:
① Defend Neptune’s Immortal Origin and rout all Ark Troops to obtain the highest rating.
② If Neptune’s Immortal Origin is exhausted, expend the Immortal Origin to launch a Star Breaker Strike, fall back to Uranus’s Immortal Origin, and rout all Ark Troops to obtain a dium rating.
③ If Uranus’s Immortal Origin is exhausted, expend the Immortal Origin to launch a Star Breaker Strike, and rout all Ark Troops to receive a passing rating.
Please, Supre Supre, act according to your capabilities."
Ren Suo saw this ga prompt and imdiately sensed sothing was amiss.
When the ga offers rewards in tiers, it implies that the ga doesn’t expect players to achieve the highest rating reward easily. In most cases, players might only get the lowest rating. Otherwise, what would be the point of having a lowest rating? To attain the highest or dium rating, you either pay with real money or grind. In any case, it’s not an achievent easily reached by Leopard Head Zero Charge players.
At least the ga had already decided he would activate the Immortal Origin of these two planets. Therefore, the battle ti was precisely chosen for the day when Neptune and Uranus were closest. At this ti, the planets were at a very short distance, and Spiritual Energy Points were particularly dense. This allowed the Cultivators Legion to constantly maintain a State of Unity Magic even when switching Celestial Origin Points.
"Neptune’s Immortal Origin: Level 2 Immortal Origin, generates 8 Spiritual Energy Points, activation ti required: 03:00"
"Uranus’s Immortal Origin: Level 2 Immortal Origin, generates 8 Spiritual Energy Points, activation ti required: 03:00"
"Number of allowed failures for this campaign: 0/5"
In the distant cosmic space, a ferocious Pepe Shrimp Battleship erged from the void. Within re seconds, the star-sized battleship shrank to a human-acceptable scale, and its rows of terrifying Spiritual Energy Artillery diminished to almost the size of tendrils.
War never changes.
Both Vanguards, "Dragon King Zhao Huo" and "Sakura Kyoko," were deployed first.
Thanks to the high yield of the panda instance, Ren Suo had strengthened all of his Elite Cultivators’ Unity Magic Cultivation to the Sixth Transformation level before starting the Second Universal War.
It was just that the number of Fantasy Experience Crystals needed to go from the Sixth Transformation to the Seventh Stage was too great. Ren Suo had initially planned to strengthen "Dragon King Zhao Huo" to the Seventh Stage in one go, but after estimating, it seed that not even several hundred Fantasy Experience Crystals would be enough to satisfy this beast, so he had abandoned the idea.
Dragon King Zhao Huo, fully ard with a huge lance, proud and handso, declared, "I am Magic Dragon King Zhao Huo!"
Sakura Kyoko, wielding a long lance, dressed in light Clothing, short and adorable, announced, "I am Magical Girl Kyoko!"
"Together, we are the Magical Girl Group!"
... Ren Suo hadn’t paid much attention to the interactions among the children at the base. It was only now that he realized these two had started playing together—probably communicating through the "Ring of Five Battles Comrades."
In a flash, four Pepe Shrimp Battleships and four Worm Battleships appeared sequentially in the void, speeding towards Neptune.
anwhile, Dragon King Zhao Huo’s skill, "Dragon King’s Secret Record," finally took effect. Ren Suo instantly gained 12 Spell Casting Points, which, combined with the points accrued over ti, allowed him to deploy the two Energy Gathering Cultivator Legions: "Asami Mizuhashi" and "Xiao ng."
After reaching the State of Unity Magic, Asami Mizuhashi exuded a mature charm. Her golden hair was curled on both sides, and she wore a vest and thigh-high boots, holding two golden long guns. She chuckled softly, "ARA ARA~"
Two thousand Cultivators followed her lead, raising their long guns and aiming at the Ark Troops. They fired dazzling, colorful energy rays, instantly inflicting massive damage on the vanguard Pepe Shrimp Battleships.
Remnant Soldier Xiao ng was not far behind, his arrows like thousands of teors streaking across the galaxy.
The two coordinated effectively, destroying three battleships before the Ark Troops drew close. Then, Dragon King Zhao Huo and Sakura Kyoko advanced to engage and safely annihilated the first wave of attackers.
By then, the Supre Supre had also maxed out his Spell Casting Points and deployed Remnant Soldier Sun Shu to heal everyone.
Then, the second wave... arrived!
Massive, dark, and sharp!
Even shifted to the 1999 tiline, even after significant weakening, the behemoth that erged quietly still inspired a sense of endless dread.
They were colossal battleships, pitch-black and bristling with spikes. As they advanced, the spikes on their hulls began to rotate, instantly transforming each battleship into a terrifying weapon capable of tearing planets apart.
"You have discovered a new Ark Soldier Type: Heavy Front Battleship."
Alongside these Heavy Front Battleships, nurous Worm Battleships and Pepe Shrimp Battleships advanced from all sides, launching a coordinated attack.
Once within range, the attacks from nearly four thousand Cultivators of Xiao ng’s and Asami Mizuhashi’s legions engulfed the frontline Heavy Front Battleships like a torrential downpour. However, these battleships seed to possess extrely high defense against such attacks, sustaining only minor damage.
In an instant, they surged forward like giant waves towards Dragon King Zhao Huo’s and Sakura Kyoko’s troops.
Danger!
Ren Suo decisively deployed "Ren Qingqing." Shortly after, three thousand heavily armored warriors, wielding Tower Shields and gripping Giant Axes, stood firm before the Heavy Front Battleships.
They ford a net-like formation, their bodies creating a massive, intangible shield in space, clashing head-on with the Heavy Front Battleships.
The swirling spikes of the Heavy Front Battleships crashed against the intangible shield, sending ripples through it. The bodies of the Fortress Monks trembled, and they seed on the verge of collapse, yet they clenched their teeth and continued to resist.
At this mont, the Pepe Shrimp Battleships and Worm Battleships from behind, influenced by the "Majestic Mountains and Rivers Stance," also charged in, attacking the Fortress Monks.
Furthermore, two Heavy Front Battleships bypassed Ren Qingqing, tearing towards Dragon King Zhao Huo and Sakura Kyoko in the rear.
Even Fortress Legion Ren Qingqing could barely withstand the Heavy Front Battleships; the two Vanguard Troops were no match for them. A brief clash led to their swift defeat. Sun Shu Troop’s healing couldn’t keep up, so Ren Suo had no choice but to order their retreat.
Consequently, these two Heavy Front Battleships faced no further opposition and stord directly into Neptune’s Immortal Origin.
"Allowed Failure Count: 2/5"
Good. Those two Heavy Front Battleships have been wiped out by the Supre Supre.
Ren Suo sighed in relief. If that was all, it wasn’t unacceptable. Although the clearance rating will certainly be penalized, at least it will be possible to clear the level. But these Heavy Front Battleships are too tough! Xiao ng and Asami Mizuhashi have been attacking for so long and still haven’t managed to break the last one. However, if we can just destroy this battleship, then—
Just then, Ren Suo saw three more Heavy Front Battleships appear at the edge of the battlefield.
One minute later, the ssage "Campaign Failed" appeared on his phone screen.
He saw Neptune’s Immortal Origin completely seized by the Ark Troops. Then, the scale of the Ark Troops suddenly surged by at least an order of magnitude. All warships grew to planet-level, and the Heavy Front Battleships beca as large as Neptune itself.
They launched attacks on other planets, shattering Uranus in an instant.
This was the true power of the Immortals’ civilization, the "Ark"!
"Would you like to restart the Chapter Two campaign? As this is your first defeat, no Celestial Origin Stone or additional rit Points are required."
Ren Suo licked his lips, put down his phone, and seriously contemplated the situation.
First of all, is it possible for the Supre Supre to get through this level with the troops at hand? Impossible. Just the Heavy Front Battleships alone are enemies that the Cultivators Legion can’t deal with. So how do I deal with the Heavy Front Battleships? I need to increase the Cultivation of the Elite Cultivators or have a Cultivators Legion that can counter the Heavy Front Battleships. The damage effect of the Energy Gathering Cultivators on the Heavy Front Battleships isn’t ideal. Perhaps another output unit—Calamity Cultivators—are the right ones to deal with them. What to do? Improving Cultivation has already reached its limit. Even if I restart Chapter Two and seek out the Heavenly Maiden Sovereign to use Krypton Gold to increase the Critical Value and increase the number of tis I can farm dungeons, I don’t believe I can strengthen the Elite Cultivators to the extent where they can annihilate the Heavy Front Battleships. To Seek Visit Calamity Cultivators is feasible, but I only have one Celestial Origin Stone left. With my luck, I’m really not sure I could successfully Seek Visit a Calamity Cultivator with One Shot Entrancing. If this Celestial Origin Stone doesn’t bring what I wish for, then I’ll have to resort to my trump card.
After thinking it over, he felt it was highly likely he would use his trump card. I might as well do so right away, saving the last Celestial Origin Stone for later use. The difficulty of Chapter Two is too high. I feel that even if my Cultivators Legion is configured just right, I’ll probably still need the Supre Supre to destroy one or two Heavy Front Battleships to pass this level. If I am to pass without external help, I believe it would not only require the correct team configuration, but I’d also need to keep using Krypton Gold in the nurture mode to increase the Critical Value and farm dungeons, raising the entire team’s Cultivation to the Seventh Transformation to possibly clear with the highest rating directly.
Seeing that a significant expenditure was necessary to clear the level, Ren Suo was already prepared for it.
After all, this was "Cataclysm of Tomorrow," with Fourfold Ga Experience, Fourfold rit Award, and a 6-star difficulty.
Hoping to clear the level without using Krypton Gold or an external plugin is as fanciful as wondering when I’ll be able to answer questions like ’What’s it like to sleep with multiple girlfriends at once?’ It’s just surprising that I need to use my trump card so soon.
「Equipnt Interface」
He equipped the "Supre Supre" with "Rippling Spring Sounds."
Returning to "Cataclysm of Tomorrow," he restarted the Chapter Two campaign and activated "Rippling Spring Sounds."
Then, a familiar, long-missed list appeared on his phone screen:
"2-star Assassin (can exert 100 tis combat power in this scene, 30% task completion rate, not recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 5 minutes."
"5-star Truth Seeker (can exert 2,000 tis combat power in this scene, 100% task completion rate, recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 25 minutes."
"5-star Ren Woxing (can exert 1,000 tis combat power in this scene, 100% task completion rate, recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 20 minutes."
"4-star Zhao Zili (can exert 25 tis combat power in this scene, 25% task completion rate, not recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 3 minutes."
"4-star adventurer (can exert 150 tis combat power in this scene, 70% task completion rate, not recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 7 minutes."
...
"5-star Darkness First (can exert 1,000 tis combat power in this scene, 100% task completion rate, recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 30 minutes."
...
"6-star Los (can exert 200 tis combat power in this scene, 100% task completion rate, recomnded for summoning), summoning ti consumption: 40 minutes (You are not qualified to summon)."
...
"Recomnded Combination: Assassin Zhao Zili (100% task completion rate, summoning ti consumption: 8 minutes, highly recomnded for summoning)."
"Attention: As this ga scenario is special, all ga characters only need a one-ti consumption of summoning ti to remain until the end of the scene."
"Attention: As this ga scenario is special, all ga characters can only be summoned once and cannot be re-summoned within this ga."
Ren Suo rubbed his eyes, making sure he wasn’t mistaken.
Even the weakest Zhao Zili, after summoning, will have 25 tis the combat power? The strongest Truth Seeker, up to 2,000 tis the combat power!? This power scaling has gone so wild, I feel like I’m reading so kind of hot-blooded manga!
Yet, glancing at the Unity Magic Cultivator Legion on the screen, Ren Suo suddenly thought of a possibility.
Could it be...
