Chapter 1829 The Gap Between [Rule-Level Items], the Arrogance of Cult Leader Luo Hao
Judging from the current situation, the empire ruler who is suspected to be a time traveler is definitely far more powerful than him!
The reason the other party sent Esdeath to fight him was probably not only because of Esdeath's warlike nature, but more importantly, to let Esdeath test his strength!
Now that the test is complete, the other party has determined that his strength is inferior to his, and the gap may even be large, so he has become indifferent.
He even went so far as to let Esdeath go all out, risking his own life to block the aftershocks, just to watch the show?!
The thought that his all-out battle might just be a "performance" worth watching in the eyes of his opponent filled Lin Feng with intense humiliation and anger, but even more so with a deep sense of powerlessness.
In this situation, let alone completing the mission, even surviving in front of them would probably become a difficult task!
The other side has the ability to end this "game" at any time!
"System! You damn system, you better keep a close eye on things!"
"There are transmigrators in this world! A transmigrator who's way stronger than me!"
"How am I supposed to complete the mission under these circumstances?!"
In this situation, what else can he do besides rely on the system?
Damn it, before he participated in the mission he was told it was a bonus mission and that it would be quite easy for someone with his abilities.
So this is what you call "simple"?
The world has become something he doesn't understand at all!
Didn't you get properly tested before you came into this world?!
[Ding, after a comprehensive scan, no other transmigrator fluctuations have been detected in the current world besides the host.]
[Based on database comparison, the energy level of the strongest individual in this world system is far lower than that of the host.]
[Warning: Host, please do not attempt to fabricate reasons to evade the task due to subjective fear or laziness.]
Please actively carry out the mission objectives.
The system's voice rang in Lin Feng's ears.
"."
Lin Feng was stunned, and then an absurd and even laughable urge welled up in his heart.
Not detected? Energy response level far below his? Making up excuses to evade the mission?
"Am I making this up?!"
Lin Feng finally broke down completely, letting out a hysterical roar in his heart!
Are you blind?! Didn't you see that power?! That's called an energy reaction far lower than his?!
Lin Feng took a few deep breaths, his chest heaving violently, forcibly suppressing the angry curses against the system that were about to overwhelm his reason.
Calm down! You must calm down! Getting angry now is pointless!
He said to himself.
Although the system's response was absurd, it also revealed the fact that it really did not detect any anomalies!
The changes in the Crimson World that any creature with "eyes" could see were completely undetectable by the system's detection. There's only one explanation for this:
That's the system carried by the ruler who was suspected to be a time traveler, and its level is far above his own!
It might even completely overwhelm them! To the point that it could easily block, interfere with, or even deceive his system's detection functions!
Damn!
Lin Feng felt a chill upon receiving this answer.
His strength was inferior to his opponent's, and even his system level was completely suppressed. Wasn't this blatantly a death sentence?!
He doesn't want to die!
He finally obtained the system, traveled through countless worlds, and gained his current power and long lifespan. He absolutely did not want to die in this world for no reason!
what to do? Now how to do?
Lin Feng's brows furrowed tightly, his brain working frantically at an unprecedented speed, searching for any glimmer of hope.
His gaze involuntarily drifted back to Esdeath, who stood calmly opposite him.
What if we use her as leverage?
An idea popped into his mind.
That time traveler seemed to value Esdeath highly, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to cultivate her.
If he could control Esdeath and threaten her life, would the time traveler hesitate and let him leave?
But the next second, he rejected the idea himself.
No! The key is the mission! Even if the other party is willing to let him go, the system won't let him leave this world if he fails to complete the mission!
Ultimately, it's a dead end!
What if Esdeath is used to blackmail the other party into helping him complete the mission?
Should I make him step down voluntarily, or use his advanced system privileges to deceive my system, fake the completion of the task, and then leave?
This idea seemed to offer a glimmer of hope, but upon closer examination, it proved to be fraught with difficulties.
Putting aside whether the other party would agree to such an outrageous request, the key question is what means he has to forcibly control Esdeath.
To the point that he could use this to threaten the time traveler?
Lin Feng's fundamental ability is lightning, which, although powerful, is mainly used for destruction.
Although he could use lightning energy as a seed to parasitize her heart and control her life and death, this method might work against the weak, but it wouldn't work against a strong person like Esdeath.
Even if it works, wouldn't the transmigrator, who is stronger than him, have no way to remove or counter it?
This poses absolutely no effective threat!
After much thought, Lin Feng realized that he really didn't seem to have any solutions.
Just as Lin Feng was filled with a sense of powerlessness and racking his brains for a way to escape, Esdeath suddenly spoke.
"Our battle is over."
Lin Feng suddenly looked up, staring at her in astonishment, not understanding what she meant.
It's over? What's over?
Why did it end?
What did she mean by that? Was that time traveler already preparing to attack him?
However, Esdeath's next words left him somewhat bewildered.
"Next, you'll be facing a different opponent."
"Good luck."
After saying that, Esdeath really ignored Lin Feng's bewildered and suddenly wary gaze, and lightly leaped backward to create distance, as if she had truly withdrawn from the battle and become a pure bystander.
"Wait, what does this guy mean?"
"Should we change the opponent? Is it that time traveler who wants to fight him?"
Alarm bells rang in Lin Feng's mind, but the next second, an extremely ominous premonition spread through his body like ice water, and he suddenly looked up at the sky!
The sky, which had been in chaos due to the energy collision, suddenly rippled like a stone being thrown into a calm lake, creating circles of transparent ripples!
next moment.
"Hey!"
A crisp sound, like cloth being torn, rang out!
The space there was actually torn open by an invisible yet extremely domineering force!
It seems to be some kind of spatial ability, but the way it's done is more like someone forcibly pulling open a door with brute force!
A figure stepped out from the spatial rift, stood in mid-air, and looked down.
It was a woman.
Wearing a simple yet magnificent Han-style palace dress, her flowing robes made her seem otherworldly.
Her appearance was extremely beautiful, but not with the aggressive, icy beauty of Esdeath. Instead, it was a classical beauty that seemed to have stepped out of a traditional Chinese ink painting, exuding an ethereal charm and unparalleled independence.
Her brows exuded a profound sense of majesty and arrogance, and her phoenix eyes, when they opened and closed, shone with a divine light that looked down upon the world, as if nothing in the world was worthy of her attention.
She simply stood there, without deliberately emitting any terrifying energy fluctuations, but a terrifying aura of arrogance and dominance naturally spread out, even subtly suppressing the destructive energy aura left behind by the battle below!
It's as if she herself is the embodiment of the word "powerful"!
The moment Lin Feng saw this figure, his pupils shrank to the size of pinpoints!
He wasn't entirely stunned by the other person's unparalleled appearance and domineering aura, although those were indeed very impactful, but the main reason was that he recognized the person!
The distinctive Han-style palace attire, the domineering and self-important aura, and the terrifying power hidden within the classical style—all these characteristics quickly overlapped with a character from a work deep in his memory!
Someone he never expected to appear here!
"You are... Luo Hao?!"
Luo Hao! The real name is Luo Cuilian, and the courtesy name is Hao! From the world of "Godslayer"!
She is one of only seven god-slayers in the world, holding the dual identities of leader of the Chinese martial arts alliance and leader of the Five Prisons Holy Sect. She reigns supreme at the pinnacle of martial arts with the title of "King of Martial Arts in Jiangnan" and has studied and mastered traditional Chinese martial arts for over two hundred years!
Although she looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, she is actually a powerful figure who lives in seclusion in a deep hermitage in Mount Lu and rarely appears in the world!
His martial arts skills were unparalleled in his time. He not only mastered the "Twelve Divine Palms of Flying Phoenix," the "Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl Technique," and the "Shrinking Earth Technique," but his physical strength and combat skills also reached an unbelievable level!
He is a top-tier powerhouse in the Godslayer faction, whose strength and influence are enough to affect the world order!
But why is she here?!
How could a god-slayer from a god-slayer world appear in the world of Akame ga Kill!?
These are two completely unrelated worldviews!
The only explanation can be that the time traveler was responsible once again!
The system he carries can not only shield him from detection by other systems, but can even summon characters from other worlds!
Damn, what kind of system is this awesome?
Having chosen to rule this world and raised Esdeath's strength from at most the level of destroying a nation to now being close to the level of a star-level being, he must have been prepared to stay in this world for a long time.
Even after achieving this level of sophistication, his system can still summon powerful beings from other worlds.
No, why?
It's just a small world like Akame ga Kill! If his system is so powerful, why would he stay here?
Wouldn't it be better to go to other, higher-level worlds?
Just as Lin Feng's heart was filled with doubt and unease, Luo Hao, who was standing in mid-air, slowly lowered her majestic phoenix eyes, her gaze falling on Lin Feng as if it were a tangible object.
That gaze carried a condescending scrutiny, an indifference as if looking at dust.
Her red lips parted slightly, her voice clear and cold, filled with unquestionable authority, like a decree from the heavens, yet carrying a hint of condescending "forgiveness":
“You scoundrel, judging from your fluctuating aura, you must have expended a lot of energy in the battle just now.”
"This leader disdains taking advantage of others in their distress, and even less desires to fight those who are exhausted, lest he needlessly dishonor his status."
"I'll grant you a moment. Quickly adjust your breathing and recover your full strength."
Her tone was flat, yet it contained extreme arrogance, as if giving Lin Feng time to recover was a great favor, rather than an act of caution or fairness.
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng was first taken aback, and then a surge of anger welled up in his heart.
Allow him to recover? Disdain taking advantage of someone's misfortune?
In the world of Godslayer, Luo Hao, the leader of the sect, is at most a nation-destroying level, and may not even reach the surface level. Now, even if that transmigrator has strengthened him by some unknown method, does that mean he can definitely suppress him?
How dare you speak to me in such a condescending tone?!
No, did they really think of him as a weakling?
He admitted that the battle with Esdeath had taken a toll on him, but he was far from being completely exhausted.
Luo Hao's attitude, as if he had already won and didn't even bother to take advantage of him, made him extremely unhappy.
Arrogant! So incredibly arrogant!
Despite his anger, Lin Feng did not lose his temper.
The opponent must have something to rely on for being so arrogant; moreover, this is indeed his chance to recover his strength!
"Fine! Since you're looking for reasons to fail, then I'll grant your wish!"
Lin Feng suppressed his anger and coldly replied, then immediately sat down cross-legged without hesitation, focusing all his energy circulation on his body while secretly commanding the system:
"System! Absorb external energy at maximum power! Replenish my energy as quickly as possible!"
[Command confirmed. High-efficiency energy absorption mode activated.]
The energy in the surrounding world, including even the traces of lightning and ice elements left over from the previous battle, began to be forcibly extracted and transformed into visible streams of energy that flowed into Lin Feng's body.
The energy he expended in the previous battle is being restored at an astonishing rate.
Luo Hao stood in mid-air, his clothes fluttering, watching indifferently without making any move to stop him, as if he truly didn't take Lin Feng seriously at all.
A moment later, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze blazing with light! The lightning around him once again became abundant and violent!
"It's recovered? That's good."
Luo Hao said it casually, as if she had just confirmed a trivial matter; the next moment, she slowly raised her slender, fair, and seemingly delicate right hand.
Facing Lin Feng's direction, he seemingly casually and lightly pressed down with his palm.
【Flying Phoenix Twelve Divine Palms - First Form】!
"boom!!!"
The entire space around Lin Feng seemed to be instantly frozen and compressed by an invisible force!
A domineering and unparalleled martial will, seemingly capable of controlling the universe and destroying all laws, mixed with a kind of greatly enhanced power, crushed towards him as if the entire world were collapsing!
Lin Feng's expression changed drastically. He roared and unleashed a torrent of thunder within his body as he met the palm strike head-on!
But this time, the pressure he felt was far greater than when he fought Esdeath before!
The battle has broken out again!
But the situation seemed to have completely turned against them from the very beginning!
"boom!!!"
A violent collision sounded, but it did not produce the earth-shattering energy explosion and shockwave that had occurred before.
All the destructive power seemed to be compressed into an extremely small area, and then forcibly restrained and annihilated by some higher power!
