Cyber Demon God's Descent
A blinding green light suddenly exploded in the retro-style lobby of TVA.
There were no magical fluctuations, nor any divine resonance. This was a phenomenon of pure, ultimate physical and technological advancement!
As the green light faded, all the TVA guards in the hall held their breath.
Standing before them was no longer the human in the black trench coat, but a three-meter-tall cyber demon god, composed entirely of pure black liquid metal and covered with green neon circuit patterns!
Galvan Prime's most advanced mechanical Symbiotes.
Upgrade!
"He... he can actually transform?!" Huntress B-15's eyes widened, as if she were witnessing the most absurd scene in the universe.
"Fire! Cut him off immediately!"
B-15 suppressed his fear and roared at the top of his lungs.
Dozens of fully armed TVA guards simultaneously raised their glowing short batons and stabbed them fiercely at Jiang Li, who had transformed into [Upgrade]. These batons, once they touched their target, could instantly banish them to the Void the end of time.
Faced with Pruning Baton coming from all directions.
Jiang Li didn't even try to dodge.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
More than a dozen Pruning Baton were simultaneously thrust into Jiang Li's liquid metal body.
However, the anticipated scene of "being exiled" did not occur.
The moment the Pruning Baton touched Jiang Li's skin, the green circuitry on Jiang Li body suddenly emitted a high-frequency flash. Those high-tech weapons, which were supposedly capable of cutting timelines, were sucked in by the liquid metal as if they had been plunged into quagmire!
Sizzle sizzle--!
His hands suddenly transformed into more than a dozen green data tentacles, extending in the opposite direction of the Pruning Baton and instantly wrapping around the arms of the TVA guards!
Galvan Prime's technological assimilation ability is activated.
Jiang Li forcibly took control of the Pruning Baton, and the original orange-yellow destructive light at the front instantly turned into a ghostly green representing Jiang Li's will!
"Here you go."
Jiang Li sneered and flicked his tentacle.
Buzz!
The dozen or so TVA guards didn't even have time to scream before their weapons detonated on the spot, engulfing them in the process.
With a flash of light, more than a dozen living people instantly turned into countless flying particles of nothingness, completely erased from the TVA's office hall!
"This... monster! Calling for backup!" B-15 retreated in terror and pressed the communicator.
But Jiang Li had already lost interest in fighting these ants hand-to-hand.
He turned his head, his enormous single eye looking at the rows of 1970s-era retro computers running in the center of the TVA hall. These old CRT monitors and punched paper tapes controlled the so-called "Sacred Timeline."
"Using such primitive servers to manage the universe, I truly feel sorry for you."
Jiang Li strode to the main control console in the lobby.
He slammed both hands heavily onto the massive central control unit.
Whoosh!
Jiang Li's body instantly transformed into a pool of black liquid metal, like boiling asphalt, and surged wildly into TVA's internal network through the gaps in the main unit!
"The system has been compromised by an unknown data stream!"
"Firewall crashed! Access to zones 77, 78, and 79 has been completely lost!"
"He's tampering with the underlying code of the Temporal Loom!"
Alarms blared throughout the entire TVA headquarters. All the lights began flashing wildly, turning from a dim yellow to a blinding, eerie green.
Within seconds.
Hundreds of retro monitors in the hall went black simultaneously.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Li's cold face, covered in green circuits, appeared on all the screens!
Just as Jiang Li was about to directly format TVA's database.
Suddenly, an extremely incongruous cartoon character popped up on the screen.
It was an orange cartoon clock with two arms and legs, its face bearing an extremely eerie, hypocritical, sweet smile.
TVA's AI management system – Miss Minutes.
"Hey! Hello there, friend!" Miss Minutes said on the screen in an extremely sweet southern accent, attempting to activate TVA's ultimate self-destruct firewall.
"You look like you're lost. Tampering with the computers in the TVA will get you sent to the Void for punishment!"
Miss Minutes hadn't finished speaking.
"A broken alarm clock dares to act all mysterious in front of me?"
Jiang Li on all the screens simultaneously let out a cold laugh.
Sizzle--!
Suddenly, the screen of one of the monitors shattered. A giant, liquid metal hand, composed entirely of green data streams, emerged directly from the screen!
This hand disregarded the boundary between virtual and reality, grabbing the orange cartoon body of Miss Minutes and forcibly "dragging" this stream of AI data from the screen into the real world!
"Ah!! Let go of me! My code! You're tearing apart my underlying logic!"
Just moments ago, Miss Minutes had been wearing a strange smile, but now she let out an extremely shrill electronic scream.
Her virtual body was twisted wildly in Jiang Li's mechanical hands. The firewall code that was originally used for defense was as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of [Upgrade], the most advanced cyber assimilation in the universe!
Jiang Li's liquid metal body reformed from the host unit.
He held the struggling cartoon alarm clock in one hand, its single green eye coldly watching her.
"Where is the password for TVA's server? Tell me." Jiang Li's hand tightened suddenly.
"Warning! Fatal tampering detected... I... I can't say! Kang will kill me..." Miss Minutes's voice turned into an extremely unpleasant garbled electrical sound.
"Then go die."
Jiang Li didn't waste any words, and his five fingers slammed together!
Bang!
It was accompanied by a dull, cracking sound.
Jiang Li forcibly absorbed her residual data, instantly gaining access to the complete map of TVA headquarters and underlying control permissions.
Jiang Li casually flicked the electronic residue from his fingertips, looked up at the surveillance camera in the lobby, and smiled at the TVA executives behind the screen.
At this moment, inside the highest-level courtroom of the TVA.
Judge Ravonna Renslayer Losrell stared intently at the surveillance screen in front of her, which had turned into a static display, her face deathly pale.
"Miss Minutes has been destroyed... He has taken over the entire defense system on the seventh floor."
Ravonna Renslayer was trembling all over.
"Your Honor, ordinary Pruning Baton are completely ineffective against him! He can not only mutate, but also control our weapons!" a hunter commander reported in horror.
"Since conventional weapons can't kill him..."
Ravonna Renslayer gritted her teeth, a resolute madness flashing in her eyes. She abruptly pressed a red button on the trial table, the button with the highest authority.
"Then let's activate the ' Abyssal Pruning Protocol ' protocol directly!"
"Exile the entire Seventh District, along with all its buildings and timeline branches, to the end of time!"
Rumble--!!
As the button is pressed.
The entire TVA office hall where Jiang Li was located suddenly began to shake violently.
The floor, walls, and even the air in the hall began to shimmer with an extremely intense purple, destructive light.
This isn't about stabbing someone with a short stick; it's TVA's most extreme method of clearing out an entire area. It's about forcibly severing an entire spatial coordinate system and dumping it into that one-way "The Void" like garbage!
Inside the hall, Jiang Li sensed a violent collapse of the spatial laws beneath his feet.
But instead of initiating a space jump to escape, he stopped in his tracks.
By absorbing the data from Miss Minutes, Jiang Li now knows where the end of TVA's "ultimate exile" lies.
The Void.
That place is a dumping ground for all the scraps from cut-out timelines. And there, a colossal storm beast capable of devouring the timelines of the Multiverse — Alioth —is kept!
The purple light completely engulfed the entire hall.
In the last second before the space collapsed, Jiang Li deactivated his [Upgrade] form and reverted to his human appearance.
Jiang Li touched her stomach.
"After wandering around the ghost story universe, I'm actually quite hungry."
