After clearing all the Iron Guard, she used the Reprise turn's Skill to attack Gepard, then immediately used the saved Hunt Resonance to advance Seele's action and launched another Skill attack!
Seven actions in a single turn!
Under Sweet Potato Pigeon's control, Seele managed seven actions in one turn!
Not only did she clear all the Silvermane Guard mobs and ease the survival pressure, she also gained several more chances to attack Gepard!
This chain of meticulous plays thrilled not only the viewers, but even Sweet Potato Pigeon himself, who let out an incredulous cry in his heart!
"Holy shit, did I just pull that off? That actually looked kind of cool. This game has details like that?"
With Gepard's defeat, this Simulated Universe run was cleared successfully. Sweet Potato Pigeon felt terrifyingly powerful now, and immediately started showing off to the Barrage!
"Say something, huh? Heizi, say something! Didn't the streamer go all out this time?!"
The Barrage in the livestream instantly surged, and everyone joined in the heckling.
"Oh no, the streamer actually learned how to play!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was wondering why my toilet was clogged—it turns out the streamer went all out!"
"Congratulations on beating Gepard! Svarog is watching you!"
"I'm already laughing. I don't dare imagine how beautiful the scenes ahead will be!"
"Streamer, hurry up and try Simulated Universe 4. It's perfect for a lineup with only one Main DPS like yours!"
"Interstellar Server's number one Svarog, requesting deployment!"
"Can't wait to see the streamer get kneaded over and over by Svarog's big hand!"
Seeing the entire screen telling him to challenge Simulated Universe 4, Sweet Potato Pigeon felt a little puzzled.
What was wrong with Svarog? He had encountered him in the Main Story before. He didn't seem all that special, did he?
Svarog's Big Hand
Having just cleared Simulated Universe 3, Sweet Potato Pigeon saw the Barrage urging him to hurry into Simulated Universe 4 and didn't think much of it.
The recommended level for this stage had risen to level 47, which meant its stats would be even higher than those of Simulated Universe 3!
Fortunately, Sweet Potato Pigeon had manually controlled his way through the whole run and still made it smoothly to the boss stage, where Svarog awaited!
"Does the Barrage need to be this scared? It's just a tiny little Svarog. My max-Eidolon Seele will send him flying with one Rocket Headbutt!"
Seeing Sweet Potato Pigeon still looking so arrogant, plenty of viewers began waiting for the show.
The reason was this stage's boss, Svarog. His mechanics could be called utterly ridiculous at the current stage of the game!
During battle, Svarog would summon a mob called the [Support Mechanical Arm Unit]. This mob could randomly seize a character, control them, and prevent them from acting for two or three turns!
The only way to break it was to deplete the mechanical arm mob's Toughness bar or defeat it outright, which was exactly what gave everyone such a headache!
If the Main DPS got taken away, while the supports lacked the corresponding element to break Toughness and didn't have enough damage to kill the mechanical arm, then they could basically take both hands off the keyboard!
Even worse, this summoning Skill wasn't used only once!
Just when someone painstakingly rescued their Main DPS from the big hand, Svarog might summon another one the very next moment and snatch the Main DPS away again!
Because of this disgusting mechanic, players at this stage were all stuck on this level!
As long as he got this stage's first clear, who would dare say he was bad but loved playing anymore?
With that thought, Sweet Potato Pigeon entered battle. Svarog had three phases. The first two went fairly smoothly, but when his HP bar recovered once more, things changed from before!
Svarog simply beckoned, and a huge mechanical hand appeared!
"Huh? What's that?"
Before Sweet Potato Pigeon could react, it became the mechanical arm's turn. It attacked Seele directly, grabbed her, and locked her firmly beneath its palm!
"Hey! What the hell is that?! Where's my Seele?!"
Sweet Potato Pigeon was dumbfounded. How had his Seele ended up on the enemy's side?!
He even tried healing his own party with Bailu, but Seele's original position was empty. She could not be selected at all!
He glanced at the Barrage, only to find it full of schadenfreude.
"HAHAHAHA, it's here, it's here! Time to enjoy!"
"My god, this is my favorite episode!"
"Sweating bullets now, aren't you, bro!"
"Why isn't the streamer laughing anymore? Are you unhappy?"
"Dragon Claw Hand!"
"With the streamer's lineup, only Bailu has Lightning to break the big hand's control. He's dead now!"
"Where's The Lord of the Hunt? Save him already!"
Sweet Potato Pigeon's current lineup was Seele, Bailu, Pela, and Asta. After Seele was captured, only Bailu could break the shield with the corresponding element.
So Sweet Potato Pigeon began trying to use Bailu to reduce Toughness and break the shield, rescuing Seele.
But the Toughness damage from normal attacks was far too slow. It took several turns before he broke the shield and freed Seele.
Yet before Sweet Potato Pigeon could breathe a sigh of relief, Svarog summoned another mechanical arm. There were now two mechanical arms on the field!
"No, why did he summon another hand?!"
A bad feeling began lingering in his heart, and Sweet Potato Pigeon even began praying inwardly.
"Don't grab Seele, don't grab Seele, don't grab Seele!"
Unfortunately, just like Murphy's Law, disaster always came barreling toward you with unstoppable force!
The newly summoned mechanical arm snatched Seele, who had only just escaped death!
"I'll fuck your brother! AHHHHHH! It's so over! Wuwuwuwu! Don't grab my Seele!"
The streamer's temperature began to rise!
"HAHAHAHA, precise! Too precise!"
"Interstellar Server's number one Svarog!"
"Feel this pain together!"
"Crying? Crying counts as time too!"
"The streamer's really cursed. It grabbed Seele both times!"
"Why is my Seele fine? It's always Tingyun who gets grabbed!"
After going through immense hardship to rescue Seele from Svarog's big hand again, Svarog triggered another Skill and detonated the big hand that had been Toughness-broken and disabled!
Seele was directly blasted down to zero HP by that Skill, then Bailu rubbed her hands together and revived her.
Unfortunately, Svarog's attacks were not over yet. Oversaturation Bombardment appeared!
On his first encounter with Svarog, he was instantly obliterated and sent back to reality. Sweet Potato Pigeon was completely dumbfounded!
What was going on with this game?!
I paid for a max-Eidolon Seele! Why was clearing Simulated Universe this hard?!!!
Suppressing the irritation in his heart, Sweet Potato Pigeon comforted himself. Maybe this run had simply been unlucky. A few more tries should solve it!
Thus, Sweet Potato Pigeon put on a calm expression and said.
"Aiya, this run was just unlucky. Don't be so irritable when playing games. You have to play with a smile, understand? Games are meant to bring us joy! Hehe!"
But when he faced Svarog again, that merciless big hand reached for Seele once more, and the streamer finally broke!
"Play my ass! AHHHHHH! Fuck! It's so over!"
Sweet Potato Pigeon's vision went black. As if he had passed away, he fell silent and could not get back up!
The Barrage watched and sent him warm greetings.
"Just got here. The streamer got wrecked, right?"
"Got wrecked unconscious by Svarog's big hand! So sad!"
"Jealous of the streamer!"
"I still prefer the streamer's old, unyielding attitude!"
"Don't give up, streamer! I haven't seen enough yet!"
"Come on, big pigeon who got wrecked!"
Only after a long while did Sweet Potato Pigeon return to the livestream as though he had come back to life.
"Brothers, this Simulated Universe simply can't be cleared at the current stage. The enemy's level completely crushes ours, and the stat gap is way too huge. Let's go do other missions instead!"
Seeing the streamer trying to escape the Simulated Universe prison, the Barrage began encouraging him one after another.
"Don't, streamer! Didn't you say you'd take every first clear in Simulated Universe?"
"Exactly! Why are you already falling apart? Can you even do it, streamer?"
"Sigh, we're used to it. New fans are still choosing to trust him, while old fans have already given up hope!"
"Streamer, why not try a different approach? Pick another Path and give it a shot!"
"Yeah, I think someone just posted a clear video. It even looks like the first clear!"
Seeing someone in the Barrage say that a clear video had already been posted, Sweet Potato Pigeon was a little surprised!
Was it some game Walkthrough creator? Had they really found a clear method so quickly, or were they simply luckier and got more Blessings?
Sweet Potato Pigeon decided to search for Simulated Universe Walkthrough videos, and he really did find one a creator had just posted.
"Simulated Universe 4's first clear across the internet—stable lineup, easy to copy?"
That caught Sweet Potato Pigeon's interest. His max-Eidolon Seele had struggled so badly here, yet this first-clear video's title sounded so casual. Stable and easy to copy?
"Let me see what this is about!"
But when he saw the other party's avatar and ID, Sweet Potato Pigeon was stunned!
"Sil... Silver Wolf?"
You Just Focus on Surviving; Leave the Damage to Black General!
After being tormented half to death by Simulated Universe, Sweet Potato Pigeon chose to first see how others had cleared it.
Seeing the exaggerated claim in the first-clear video's title, Sweet Potato Pigeon clicked into it skeptically.
"Sil... Silver Wolf!"
Upon seeing the uploader's ID and the pixel-art Silver Wolf avatar, Sweet Potato Pigeon could not help crying out!
Compared to her identity as one of the Stellaron Hunters, Silver Wolf's status as a god-tier player in the gaming world fascinated Sweet Potato Pigeon even more. She was practically his idol!
The livestream Barrage instantly erupted as well!
"Holy shit, is that Silver Wolf from the Stellaron Hunters? She even appeared as a playable character in the game before!"
"It has to be her. I've heard about her exploits. Silver Wolf herself is a gaming expert, so this first clear definitely belongs to her!"
"Damn, I didn't expect to see Silver Wolf's first-clear video here. I wonder how she cleared it!"
"Could she have used cheats? Silver Wolf's a hacker too. Maybe she hacked directly into the game and modified the data!"
Seeing the intense discussion in the Barrage, Sweet Potato Pigeon decided to watch the video first.
At the beginning of the video, Silver Wolf's choice of party members left everyone utterly stunned!
Instead of choosing a group of Five-Star Characters, Silver Wolf selected the Fire Preservation Trailblazer, Natasha, March 7th, and Asta for battle!
The entire party consisted of free characters, leaving everyone dumbfounded!
"What's going on? What kind of picks are those?"
"Yeah, why did she pick those characters? Natasha alone should be enough, shouldn't she?"
"Three Survival-type Characters? Is this some kind of tanking build?"
"I'm starting to wonder whether Silver Wolf hacked into the system and modified the data!"
