"Kamehameha Wave—!"
"Flower Q—!"
"I want to fuck!"
Chang Yan felt that he swore more during this battle than he had ever done in total, but there seemed to be something wrong with the words that Death God Chang Yan used.
What are you trying to do? You're even unleashing a Kamehameha wave!
However, it seems I have a chance to—
Counterattack?
An immense, suffocating amount of spiritual energy gathered in the palm of the BOSS Changyan's hand, accompanied by the voice of "Ha Mei Ha Mei Ha!", and a wave of light shot out that pierced through the heavens and earth.
The skill that destroyed Earth countless times and eliminated countless villains capable of destroying Earth was used by the BOSS Chang Yan. It's impossible for Chang Yan not to be flustered.
Panic ensued, but this move was, as the saying goes, an opportunity for a counterattack.
The Kamehameha is essentially just a magical energy beam, and the so-called Annihilation Eye can completely absorb this energy and use it for its own purposes.
The only concern now is whether the Annihilation Eye can handle it.
But now, it seems there's no other choice.
"boom----!"
The light wave blasted over, and Death God Chang Yan, who was standing nearby, had already fled. But instead of retreating, Chang Yan advanced and charged straight at the source.
"You're not a Saiyan, so why would I be afraid of your Kamehameha!"
The Annihilation Eye was operating at full speed, converting the constantly bombarding energy to first repair Chang Yan's injuries, and then to strengthen his body.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, the power is surging up!
However, this time, it seems a bit too much.
"Die! Torrent—whirlwind!"
With his timely change of direction and counterattack, and Chang Yan's now terrifyingly enhanced physical abilities, he directly created a sonic boom.
"It's over! The torrent—pierces through the stone!"
His arm transformed into a sharp blade, cleaving through the air and shields, and viciously stabbed towards BOSS Chang Yan's chest.
A scythe from the netherworld emerged from the void, bringing the proclamation of death, and slashed towards the head of the BOSS, Chang Yan.
Because of the release of the Kamehameha wave, the BOSS is currently unable to move.
Although he had started to reduce his spiritual power output the moment he saw Chang Yan run out in order to reduce the backlash from forcibly interrupting the light cannon, he did not expect that Chang Yan and Death God Chang Yan were too fast.
"Did you really think I'd unleash a powerful attack without any preparation? How naive! Pseudo-AT Field, deploy!"
BOSS Changyan's face also became extremely ferocious, and he roared, "Except for the backup plan I left behind."
The following is an introduction to AT fields:
------
"AT Field" is an abbreviation for "Absolute Terror Field." It is also known as the Absolute Territory.
The Angels (and EVA, which is based on the Angels) can greatly increase the range of the field of soul matter by providing energy through the special structure of their bodies, thereby forming a space around their bodies suitable for the existence of soul matter.
Then, through the control of the soul, the free soul matter will be distributed into this space, forming an absolute domain outside the body.
Since the amount of soul matter is limited, some of the soul matter distributed outside the body is transformed from the body's tissues, but this transformation has a negligible impact on the body.
This process of forming an absolute domain outside the body is called "unfolding the absolute domain".
The Absolute Territory is essentially a phase-transition space. When the Absolute Territory is affected by external factors (mainly by attacks), the soul matter within it will move to a certain extent, causing a change in the overall phase of the Absolute Territory. Using this characteristic, the Apostles can use it as a means of defense.
------
Both the hand blade and the scythe struck a golden polygonal shield, failing to penetrate even an inch.
"Damn it, it's an AT field!"
"Tch, the game experience is terrible."
Seeing that their attack had no effect, the two quickly retreated and stared at the AT field in front of BOSS Chang Yan.
They are currently helpless about this, or rather, they are completely helpless, because it has nothing to do with the soul.
"Hey, Number Four, you should be able to break through this AT field, right? That AT field thing seems to be related to the soul. You, a Grim Reaper, should have a way with it."
Chang Yan did not turn around, but continued to stare intently at BOSS Chang Yan, asking the Grim Reaper Chang Yan beside him.
"If I could have broken through, my scythe would have chopped off his head just now. This AT field is very strange. Didn't you hear him shout 'pseudo-AT field'?"
“That Grim Reaper is right. My AT field is completely different from the normal AT field. After all, only Angels can use that thing, but I modified it a bit. Although the principle is similar, I added some extra elements and modified some of the structure. You should know that I tested this pseudo-AT field on at least a thousand test subjects.”
Hidden beneath the BOSS's seemingly boastful words and smug expression lies a thick layer of bloodshed.
As mentioned before, the AT field is related to the soul.
A human's AT field will never be the same as a mouse's.
Therefore, the only materials that can be used as test subjects are humans.
The fate of the test subjects was almost always the same—
death.
Chapter 145 Our side failed to penetrate the enemy's armor.
(In this short writing career, I've learned one thing: the more you want to update more, the more you realize that there are limits to human capabilities, so—)
(Evolving into a 4K Beast is really difficult!)
----------
"Then...what were those test subjects? What happened to them?"
Hearing this, Mashu asked somewhat anxiously.
Because she is an artificial human, in a sense, she is also an experimental subject. Her very existence was as an experiment to fuse with a Heroic Spirit. Although she successfully fused with the Spirit Origin of a Heroic Spirit, she did not inhibit the aging of its cells. In other words, her bodily functions could stop at any time, leading to her immediate death.
"I'm human, so the test subjects must also be human. Do you really expect me to use lab mice for experiments?"
"As for the fate of those test subjects? Why ask that? Although I don't have a certificate, I am still a legitimate researcher. Test mice must be completely disposed of, especially a group of failures. Keeping them there is both useless and a waste of resources."
BOSS Chang Yan answered the question with some surprise. In his opinion, the answer to this question was already obvious, and there was no need to ask it at all.
"How...how could this be...!"
Mashu was utterly shocked. She felt as if she were surrounded by the endless stench of blood hidden beneath Chang Yan's words, giving her the illusion that she couldn't breathe and was almost suffocating.
"Ha, what a pure villain. My flames are already stirring."
Hearing BOSS Chang Yan's calm words, even Jeanne Alter's expression turned dangerous.
"Completely...handle..."
Why...why did it have to be like this...?
The Fujimaru siblings were also stunned, followed by boundless rage. "A, Venger, Ruler, Mash—"
"Sister Artoria—"
"Slay him with all our might!" x2
"Evil heretics, die!"
"Be prepared to wake up!"
"Come, taste my wrath!"
"Yes, Master!"
The heroic spirits, who had been unable to contain themselves any longer, charged towards BOSS Chang Yan with great momentum after receiving instructions from their Master.
This "me" must have gone crazy from all the research.
Chang Yan secretly rejoiced, while also lamenting the foolishness of his boss, Chang Yan.
To say something like that in front of the Chaldea people at this time is just asking for trouble, isn't it?
If I were him, I would definitely try to win over the Chaldea people to my side first, no matter what. For example, I would first claim to be the creator of the singularity, and then say, "Help me destroy the other versions of myself, and I will give you the Holy Grail." Or I would pretend to be an innocent bystander who was pulled in, and lead them to think, "Only by destroying the other versions of myself will this singularity probably disappear."
As for what’s next?
Now that we've achieved our goals, we can do whatever we want! However, I would recommend preparing a plan beforehand to take Fujimaru Ritsuka and his group hostage, and then escape with the Holy Grail.
Ugh, how stupid of me.
But thanks to him, I should be able to relax a bit.
Seeing the heroic spirits locked in fierce battle with BOSS Changyan, Changyan also joined the fray in time.
"Boom-"
The fist slammed forward, but was blocked by the pseudo-AT field, producing a dull thud.
"Tch, still not working?"
Even the Annihilation Eye is completely helpless against this pseudo-AT field; it has no effect whatsoever.
"Damn it, how come I can't break this thing!"
Even Joan of Arc's Alter flames, brimming with hatred and rage, could not penetrate this thin barrier.
"Ha, I spent countless hours and resources to create this. If it were so easily broken, I might as well stay home and stay there forever. Hmm... the light cannon was absorbed, so I'll try a physical attack then—"
"Take this! Hokuto Hundred-Fist Punch! Ora Ora Ora Ora!"
"Don't think I'm afraid of you! Muda muda muda muda!"
The art style suddenly changed to the JOJO style.
Fists collided with fists.
After a brief exchange of punches, Chang Yan was defeated.
There was no other way; my hand hurt from typing.
"Hey, Number Four, are you really out of options?"
"...No, I can't see any flaws in this fake AT field at all. Now, we can only place our hopes on Lancer. The gun in her hand should be able to break through that barrier."
To place your hopes on others?
I've seen this kind of scene many times, and their fate is always the same—
When hope collapsed, they plunged into the abyss of despair!
"bass--"
Artoria's holy spear, Rungomminiad, pierced the pseudo-AT field that the BOSS often talked about, producing a piercing sound.
The Holy Lance and the Barrier of the Heart clashed fiercely.
"Aha--"
With a loud shout from Artoria, the Holy Lance struggled to advance forward.
"Bang—"
The pseudo-AT field was pierced with a small hole, and the Holy Lance was stuck there.
The Holy Lance Rungomminiad, in its true form, is the entity connecting the world's surface and its inner workings. It is one of the anchors of the storm that hold the planet together. Its true form is said to be a tower that holds the world's surface together, or a "pillar of light" that maintains the world's surface. Legend has it that if it were released, "reality" would be stripped away from the world.
It's a very high-end item, but it has thirteen restraints with the same program as the "Star Sword that Saves the World". Only by releasing all the restraints can it be completely released.
"The Holy Lance Rungominiad! As expected of something that connects the world, even with those constraints greatly reducing its power, it can still pierce my pseudo-AT field."
Despite being in a very bad situation, Boss Chang still had the energy to praise the power of the Holy Lance.
Chang Yan, who knows him very well, knows that he still has a trump card up his sleeve.
"Kill him quickly, Miss Lancer! He still has a trump card up his sleeve!"
"Step back! Unleash your Noble Phantasm—[Spear of Radiant Light]!"
Without hesitation, Artoria had everyone retreat to the back before unleashing her Noble Phantasm, blasting it directly at point-blank range onto the pseudo-AT field.
