Chapter 2636 / Chapter 2637

Fu Xuan was not surprised that the attack failed. After all, his opponent had already ascended to the position of the Aeon of Joy. If he could have been killed by an attack without the blessing of Command Spell, Fu Xuan would have been more worried about whether it was a trap.

"You think you can stop me with the Lord of the Hunt before he became a god? You're still a little short." Guiji patted non-existent dust off his chest and said with a smile.

"Then add me to the list, Guiji." A voice sounded from Guiji's side.

"Hey, isn't this my good colleague Celenova? What? You changed jobs too?" Guiji turned his head and looked at him, paused for a moment, and then smiled.

Although there was a hint of laughter in Guiji's voice, he couldn't laugh at all. Guiji could see through his former colleague at a glance that he was no longer a "human."

The other party contains the power of the Harmony Aeon... Xipe.

"Stay there obediently. Otherwise, the next arrow aimed at you will be from the true Reignbow Arbiter." Fu Xuan raised his right hand, the Command Spell on the back of his hand emitting a dazzling red light, and said in a cold tone.

Xingxiao also took a step forward, forming an angle with the Heroic Spirit Emperor Bow Master, who appeared beside Guiji with his bow drawn, locking Guiji firmly in the middle.

Meanwhile... the Propagation Aeon has been turned into Taiyi.

The Propagation Aeon was already weak. What's more, at this moment He was facing the Order Aeon Taiyi, who had received an unprecedented boost because the New Penacony was suffering from Cosmic Plague and people were yearning for a Deliverance to maintain Order.

An Aeon who was born weak ran into his nemesis at his peak, and the result was naturally a one-sided crushing defeat.

Inside the Parlor Car of the Astral Express, Chen Li lay on his back, watching the battle footage transmitted from the Duality Paradise through the holographic screen on the ceiling of the car, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"What's wrong? Darling, what are you thinking about?" Vita asked curiously, gently stroking Chen Li's head.

By this time Robin and Fu Xuan had already left the Parlor Car to head to the battlefield, and Chen Li ultimately ended up in Vita's hands... or rather, on her lap. He was either forced or helplessly enjoying Vita's lap pillow.

"How come the Immortal Aeon is taking food and money at the same time?" Chen Li remarked with a subtle tone.

"What do you mean?" Vita was taken aback.

"Didn't you see? If the New Penacony is the foundation for Chen Li to create the Miraculous Item of Paradise, then the Immortal Aeon, by transforming himself into the Dao and fusing the power of Permanence with the entire New Penacony, can naturally achieve true Permanence." Yao Guang, who was handling official business on a holographic terminal, suddenly spoke up, his tone tinged with emotion.

If asked what true Permanence is, Yao Guang would only consider Miraculous Item.

Among the Miraculous Item, the Three-star Artifacts are so powerful that an entire world would be considered an overconfident challenger.

The Immortal Aeon's actions were both a contribution to the Paradise Miraculous Item forged by Chen Li and an attempt to achieve true Permanence for himself.

"Hmm... and if I remember correctly, when using Resurrection Card to revive the dead, if no additional choice is made, the resurrected person will be in their strongest state, right?" Vita said, stroking her chin.

Although Vita's sentence structure resembled a question, her tone was very confident.

It is precisely because of this mechanism that becoming Servant and raising one's own potential before being resurrected can be called "advanced training."

If the Immortal Aeon was resurrected after merging with the Foundation of Paradise in a state of complete fusion...

Then what he possesses after his resurrection might be true Permanence.

"Besides, the Holy Grail War is going to end at 10 o'clock anyway, so it wouldn't be a waste to pass on my status before the Holy Grail War ends."

Chapter 2636

"That's why I was wondering why this Immortal Aeon was eating and taking things away at the same time?" Chen Li continued.

Anyway, it wasn't Chen Li who was being taken advantage of, so Chen Li didn't feel like he was losing out.

Moreover, the Immortal Aeon's actions had no impact on the creation of the Miraculous Item; in fact, they had a positive effect. Therefore, Chen Li, who saw this, naturally did not stop it.

"If that's the case... then Taiyi had Robin call Sunday over to watch the game just now, was it because he wanted to..." Vita seemed to have thought of something and said with great interest.

"Who knows? Maybe they're planning to abdicate?" Chen Li said casually, while observing the battle situation at Duality Paradise and checking the progress of the New Penacony forging.

As the Immortal Aeon dissolves into the world, the Permanence attributes that were originally extremely difficult to extract from the Immortal Aeon are now slowly emerging throughout the entire New Penacony.

Although the brightness of each individual entry seemed rather insignificant, Chen Li could now instantly fuse all the [Permanence] entries together to recreate the Aeon- level Permanence entry.

If everyone were as proactive as the Immortal Aeon, Chen Li could probably save a lot of money on the Miracle Fire he used to forge the entries, right?

"The Immortal Aeon is such a good person..."

"Oh, everyone's busy, aren't they?" Just as Chen Li was thinking this, Sparkle 'Chen Li voice suddenly rang in his ears.

Chen Li turned his head and saw Sparkle appear next to Yao Guang.

"You've used the [I am Joy] Miraculous Item again." Chen Li squinted at the smiling Sparkle with ill intent.

"Ahem... Well, isn't this convenient? But besides being convenient, it's completely useless." Sensing Chen Li's gaze, Sparkle subconsciously put her hands behind her back, covered her buttocks, and quickly said.

"Tell me, what brings you here?" Chen Li asked, rolling his eyes at Sparkle in annoyance.

"Guiji's weakness... has been found," Sparkle said with a grin.

PS: Aside from the game itself not being very fun, the character design in Zenless Zone Zero is truly fantastic!

Chapter ID: 114984599

"By the name of the Command Spell, the Taiyi Order Aeon, sever it!"

Jade's voice rang out across the battlefield, and the last Command Spell on the back of her hand emitted a dazzling red light the moment it was activated.

All three Command Spell were burned to ashes.

This was not a short battle. From the moment the Order Aeon Taiyi, revealed his true form and confronted the Propagation Aeon head-on, this battle between the Aeon had already lasted for quite some time.

Jade's three Command Spell were not used all at once... The first one was used to enhance Taiyi's power of Order, allowing it to rise further; the second one was used to block the retreat of the Propagation Aeon, cutting off its return route; and the last one, the third one, was the finishing touch that brought this battle to a close.

As the power of the last Command Spell dissipated, the intense, chilling buzzing that had been echoing in everyone's ears ever since the appearance of the Propagation Aeon... finally subsided.

The sky above New Penacony suddenly fell silent for a moment, and then... the countless Swarm ravaging every corner of New Penacony let out a mournful cry in unison.

The sound reverberated throughout New Penacony, with hundreds of millions of insects simultaneously wailing, their cries converging into a resonance powerful enough to shatter eardrums, as if bidding farewell to their insect king.

After the mournful cries, the Swarm did not collapse due to the fall of its leader; instead, it became even more ferocious.

Deprived of the leadership of the Propagation Aeon, the Swarm descended into utter madness, instinctively rushing towards anything within reach, only to detonate itself upon contact.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Continuous explosions echoed throughout New Penacony and Duality Paradise, Swarm transformed into walking bombs, destroying everything in their path.

"Is it finally over...? I never expected to witness God War during the Holy Grail War. And it's such a massive event, a replica of the Cosmic Plague." March 7th raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath.

"In the true Cosmic Plague, the death of the Propagation Aeon was ended by the Amber King's three heavy hammer blows. Now, the one who contributed has changed to the Order Aeon, Taiyi." Dan Heng, standing beside March 7th in his complete Dragonborn form, spoke calmly.

At this moment, Dan Heng had a pair of complete dragon horns on his head and a dragon tail covered with fine scales trailing behind him, a completely different appearance from his usual incomplete form as a High Elder. This was a change brought about by the integration of the Immortal Legacy into his body.

But there are even deeper changes that have not yet been discovered by Dan Heng.

If its full potential is unlocked, it may not become the next Immortal Aeon, but it would be enough to transform Dan Heng and enable him to achieve the infinite combo of the "Miraculous Dragon Transformation Method"!

It is said that after killing the Propagation Aeon, the Preservation Aeon Kliper sealed his body in Amber...

From this perspective, participating in the Holy Grail War might allow one to use the insect bodies sealed in Amber to summon the Propagation Aeon.

Of course, this was just Dan Heng's guess. Because Chen Li had never revealed to Dan Heng how the Propagation Aeon was summoned this time.

"Are all battles between Aeon this simple, unadorned, and boring? The Propagation Aeon was killed by the Preservation Aeon with three hammer blows last time, and this time he was killed by the Order Aeon with three swords..." March 7th recalled the battle just now and scratched his head.

"The battle between Aeon wouldn't be so simple. There must have been some kind of entanglement between concepts we don't understand in those three sword strikes. Just like the Propagation Aeon shouldn't have been simply killed by three hammer blows... right?" Dan Heng shook his head and said seriously.

However, when he got to this point, Dan Heng's tone suddenly became somewhat hesitant.

What if the Preservation Aeon really is just powerful?

It's not impossible.

After all, compared to the other Aeon' fancy abilities of either causing events before they happen, anchoring moments, or manipulating time to traverse history, the Preservation Aeon, as one of the recognized strongest beings, has neither dazzling special effects nor awe-inspiring slogans; he simply stays there building walls with a hammer.

Having great strength isn't a rare advantage, but if you're so strong that everyone thinks you're the strongest Aeon... then something's not quite right.

Chapter 2637

"Anyway, the battle is finally over. To be honest, I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. I thought that the Master who Propagation Aeon might pull some other tricks." March 7th stretched, his tone much more relaxed.

The moment the words were spoken, almost everyone present looked at March 7th.

After all, it's common knowledge that the mouth of March 7th is truly blessed.

"Why are you all staring at me like that?" Noticing the gazes directed at him, March 7th blinked somewhat bewildered.

Almost immediately, a shrill cry came from the distant Swarm.

"What have you all done?!" Old Audi's voice, hidden among the Swarm, was almost hoarse, filled with resentment and despair.

"My Servant! My victory! I haven't even given the order to attack... Why! Why did you rush out on your Old Audi!?" Old Audi's voice came intermittently amidst the Swarm's flapping wings, and every word revealed his despair.

"You can't blame anyone else. Who told your benefactor to be a brainless worm? My condolences, my friend. I've done my best, but I'm just too busy to do anything else." Guiji, who was facing Lord of the Hunt and Celenova, suddenly shrugged and said with some regret.

The "comfort" of Guiji did not calm Old Audi down; instead, it made him instantly turn his gun around.

"You've been trying your best my ass!! You've been staring at two Emanator- level beings the whole time! Do you really think I can't see you're slacking off?! You clearly have plenty of energy to spare! You're doing this on purpose!" Old Audi's voice rose again, filled with hysteria.

"Don't say that, my friend. There's still a chance, isn't there?" Guiji shrugged.

"No chance... no chance... it's all over..." Old Audi's voice suddenly became low and somber, like that of an old man whose life force had been drained away.

Old Audi's voice came from all directions, and the Swarm's transmission made it impossible for anyone to pinpoint his exact location.

Or rather, they could sense his presence and didn't care at all about this little bug hiding in the shadows. Like Taiyi, like Celenova.

"Don't say that. After all, the Holy Grail War isn't over yet, the outcome is uncertain, and we could both be dark horses."

As he finished speaking, a hand was placed on Old Audi's shoulder.

Old Audi turned his head sharply and saw Guiji, dressed in a white tailcoat and top hat, standing beside him with a harmless smile on his face.

Old Audi paused for a moment, then looked past Guiji's shoulder and towards another Guiji in the distance, who was confronting Celenova and Lord of the Hunt.

"You have the nerve to say you're overwhelmed?! You can be in two places at once, can't you?! You were doing it on purpose! You deliberately stood by and did nothing!" Old Audi said through gritted teeth.

If Guiji truly intends to join forces with the Propagation Aeon, with all of Guiji's clones combined with the Propagation Aeon's power, Old Audi felt that they might be able to fight the Order Aeon. After defeating the Order Aeon, the likes of Celenova and Lord of the Hunt would naturally be nothing more than roadside figures.

"You really hurt my feelings by saying that. I genuinely wanted to help you. And you're not dead yet, are you? As long as you're alive, there's still a chance." Guiji pretended to be sad and clutched his chest, then changed the subject.

"There's no chance anymore. You heard it back then, didn't you? The Miraculous Forger once told me that if I wanted to win the Holy Grail War, I had to win both the official tournament and the All-People Entertainment Match. This was punishment for my outrageous behavior. But now, the winner of the All-People Entertainment Match was decided the moment the Propagation Aeon died." Old Audi took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice.

In other words, if Old Audi loses any one of the groups, even if he wins the other group, he still won't get the Holy Grail.

"What are you pretending to be stupid for?! Besides, that Miraculous Forger never said that even if you have Command Spell to revive Servant, it would be considered a failure! I still had three Command Spell saved up to revive the Propagation Aeon after He died! But... but..." Old Audi roared, somewhat losing his composure.

Old Audi suffered from a lack of intelligence.

If he had communicated with Tokisaki Kurumi beforehand, he might have known that Command Spell revival could not turn the tide of battle under certain conditions. He would have chosen to use three Command Spell to buff the Propagation Aeon instead of Command Spell for the end in a dream of revival.

"It's over... it's all over... I didn't get the Miraculous Item, and the Propagation Swarm caused so much damage to New Penacony. I'm powerless to repay my debts..." Old Audi's voice gradually faded.

"What on earth are those Star-shattering King Worm doing... I clearly dispatched seventeen Emanator -class Swarms to Origami University to attack the final Master Firefly of the All-People Entertainment Match Group, so why is the opponent still unharmed?" Old Audi gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.

Seventeen Star-shattering King Worm of the Emanator level. With that level of combat power, do you think the enemy can kill you instantly? You should come at me.

"Bite!"

Just as Old Audi was completely devastated, a crisp notification sound suddenly rang out throughout the entire New Penacony.

The sound pierced through the hissing of the Swarm, through the roar of collapsing buildings, through all the noise, and reached the ears of everyone.

Immediately afterwards, the sky above the New Penacony lit up.

A massive canopy slowly unfolded above the insect cloud, illuminating a corner of the sky that had been completely obscured by the Swarm. The canopy was so vast that it covered almost half of the sky above New Penacony, and could be clearly seen from anywhere in the city.

A few seconds later, the sky suddenly lit up, and the first image appeared.

At the same time, a strange force spread throughout New Penacony. The flapping of the Swarm's wings disappeared, and time seemed to be paused in the entire world. Only the figures on the screen above the sky continued to move, as if forcing everyone to focus their attention on them.

The scene shows a spacious and bright office. A white-haired girl with a slightly dazed expression stands in front of the desk, her eyes looking at the camera with a hint of helplessness.

It was none other than the Holy Grail War's All-People Entertainment Match team's Master, Firefly.

Old Audi knew almost immediately what the scene displayed on the screen was. It was clearly the awards ceremony for the All-People Entertainment Match.

Old Audi didn't want to watch; all he wanted to do was rush up and blow up those who had ruined his grand plan. But the sky seemed to possess some kind of coercive force, freezing time in the entire world for a moment, leaving everyone only able to watch the awards ceremony.

In the scene, Chen Li held the microphone close to Firefly's face.

"Congratulations, Miss Firefly, on becoming the sole surviving Master in this All-People Entertainment Match. Is there anything you'd like to say to everyone?" Chen Li asked Firefly.

"Um... first, I want to thank my Servant, second, I want to thank my best friend Silver Wolf, uh, and..." Firefly counted on her fingers somewhat awkwardly.

"You don't need to be so nervous. Let's talk about what you plan to exchange for this victory. Is it two wishes, or a Miraculous Item?" Chen Li comforted him, then steered the conversation back on track.

Reminded by Chen Li, Firefly seemed to remember something and quickly nodded.
