Chapter 972: Chapter 972: The Headache of Moving
This, must be a joke, right?
Gongshu De felt as if a giant train weighing thousands of tons had violently crashed into his weapon, the terrifying force transmitted through his Lifebound Divine Artifact and into his body. Even with the protection of the Divination Genius’s Lifebound Divine Artifact, it couldn’t isolate the terrifying power of Jiang Chen’s impact.
No way, that guy not only possessed infinite strength but also had a body so durable that materials in the Three Realms rarely matched it.
Jiang Chen’s impact didn’t carry any Divine Power or Taichu, relying solely on pure strength and physical robustness. Even so, Gongshu De clearly felt the unstoppable force piercing through his body, sending him flying away.
Blood Dance God’s situation was even worse.
Under Jiang Chen’s impact, the Lifebound Divine Artifact Blood Spirit Pearl, influenced by pure force, brutally struck her face. The terrifying impact shook Blood Dance God’s brain completely, causing her to pass out.
If it weren’t for the Divination Genius who braved the damage to catch her, she might have been thrown anywhere.
Attack fell as the Divination Genius saw the unstoppable Jiang Chen getting closer and closer, causing the fear in his heart to grow more intense.
His most trusted companions, who usually gave him unlimited confidence, were unable to calm his inner turmoil now. He had a rather abstract idea:
Throw away his weapon, start fleeing without another word, run as far as possible without looking back.
This tactic could only be imagined.
Suddenly remembering that he was one of Dark Rising’s Seven Heroes, the Divination Genius forced himself to grip the war hammer tightly, holding it in front of him.
"Damn guy, why are you standing there!"
Jiang Chen exerted force again, speeding up even more, standing face to face, eye to eye with him before the Divination Genius could set up his stance.
Jiang Chen reached out his hand, grabbing the Divination Genius by the neck.
Intense suffocation came, significantly diminishing the Divination Genius’s strength.
"So, so fast!"
Behind him were the retreating Dark Rising members, escorting important data and resources.
Bearing the pride of the Seven Heroes, he couldn’t retreat at all.
Even though he was being held by Jiang Chen and about to be killed, he wouldn’t fail his mission.
Seeing the Divination Genius captured, Tremble was suddenly shocked.
High-tier combatants at this level were not easily killed.
But he couldn’t guarantee the Divination Genius wouldn’t completely lose his fighting capability due to Jiang Chen’s exertion.
Regrettably, Tremble, experiencing backlash from his skill being broken, couldn’t muster any strength, helplessly watching it all happen.
Could it be that the battle with the Four Great Corpse Kings was finding a weakness so easily?
Other Heroes similarly worried about the Divination Genius’s situation.
But they weren’t expecting to be stunned the next second by Jiang Chen’s outrageous move.
"What are you idling for, won’t attack?"
Jiang Chen exerted force and harshly slammed the Divination Genius onto the ground.
Then he pointed at the bewildered Divination Genius and spoke.
"Didn’t you hear it, Ying Gou said I couldn’t withstand your attack, couldn’t I withstand it? Smash me, slam hard, I won’t fight back."
....
Upon hearing this, all Seven Heroes were utterly confused.
What was going on?
How could anyone make such a joke during a battle?
Just because of a companion’s joke, Jiang Chen’s competitiveness arose, allowing a powerful Upper-Rank God to attack him without retaliating, treating war as child’s play.
The Heavenly Divine Beings’ envoy seemed so unreliable.
Across Dark Rising Headquarters.
The massive information processing system, escorted by dozens of mid-level Dark Rising members, was being moved out bit by bit.
When they initially placed it inside the dispatch center, it took enormous effort.
The Dark Rising’s information processing system was very large.
To fit it into a building, it could only be disassembled and reassembled.
The buildings at Dark Rising Headquarters were made from materials immune to Divine Power and Taichu forces, complemented by Gongshu De’s inscriptions of arrays and the strength of the materials themselves, rendering the building’s sturdiness beyond imagination.
The massive machine stored Dark Rising’s crucial data over the thousands of years since its formation, recording each member’s information, including positioning and task progress.
Placing it within a building of such a high durability was reasonable.
Why not keep it in portable space at this critical moment, or move it using spatial skills?
Because, at its inception, to prevent theft, Gongshu De not only designed arrays immune to such abilities for the building but also added the same to the machine itself, rendering even the highest-ranking Heroes like Dragon Queen unable to place it in their portable space.
Moreover, the information processing system possessed shielding effects from Divine Power, Taichu, and even Source Power that were stronger than Dark Rising Headquarters’ crucial buildings.
The system could totally immune pure energy attacks, though the effect had limitations; extreme Divine Power, Taichu, or Source Power targeting the system would make the energy immunity system fail.
In such cases, the system would automatically format all its content.
This design was also to prevent data theft.
Meaning spatial skills wouldn’t work on it either.
In essence: it must be disassembled and moved physically.
Water can carry but also capsize a boat.
The design ensured data safety when situations weren’t urgent.
But faced with emergencies, it turned out troublesome.
"You there, be careful, this thing can’t be damaged!"
"Yes, yes, each takes a part, no hurry, it won’t get damaged."
Because of all its functionalities, composed of many parts, moving it required disassembly, sending pieces out.
Dark Rising members were somewhat anxious.
They could hear Seven Heroes and Four Great Corpse Kings fighting clearly, without short-term good news, implying one fact:
The Seven Heroes didn’t have much advantage facing the Four Great Corpse Kings.
How could they possibly stay calm?
"Stop idling, hurry, move the things to safety then we return to assist the Seven Heroes."
"Once the powerful members executing external tasks get the message, they will secure victory soon enough, the merit will all go to them."
Guo Yun, responsible for moving the system, encouraged the warriors.
However, his words had little effect.
At this point, merit was irrelevant.
For those tasked with relocating the information system, as long as they could remove it smoothly without punishment from above, it was good enough, merit could be ignored.
