Chapter 1313: 426. Space Erasure_2
Why was this happening?
Nnd Lee’s thoughts flickered slightly, and a bold guess emerged in his mind:
“These 20 Artificial Angels seem to be merely trapping the Demon God Host here. Could it be that the Angel Enterprises Alliance has mastered a method of remotely sniping the Demon God Host, which is why the Artificial Angels fight while collecting Demon God Cells?”
Nnd Lee clenched his fists and lightly pounded his palm:
“Yes, that’s probably it. Furthermore, once this remote sniping method is initiated, the Demon God Host would be instantly annihted, with no possibility of being captured. It is because of this that the Angel Enterprises Alliance has ordered the Artificial Angels to collect Demon God Cells during battle.”
Nnd Lee nced around and saw the Quantum Leap Beacon floating near the fleet.
...
This device was set up by yers and could guide yers to quantum leap to this location.
Such a simple and fragile tool, yet it had survived the fierce battle.
Looking at the increasingly numerous yer battleships gathering near the battlefield, Nnd Lee felt a slight tremor in his mind.
This was a trap.
A trap set by the Angel Enterprises Alliance.
The trap used the Demon God Host as bait, drawing arge number of yers into the battle, then it would unleash some form of massive, unavoidable attack to annihte all targets, including both yers and the Demon God Host.
Once this trap was activated, the Artificial Angels wouldn’t survive either.
But!
The Artificial Angels possessed the “Death Immunity”!
This extraordinary feature, which could exempt them from any death event, was very likely to allow the Artificial Angels to survive the uing attack.
As for whether the pilots steering the Artificial Angels could survive…
Nnd Lee was not too sure.
Perhaps, the Angel Enterprises Alliance secretly arranged some backup ns to help the pilots avoid death events.
Nnd Lee pondered for a bit, he and the yers were now on the same front.
If the yers were strong, so was he.
If yers lost experience, it was equivalent to Nnd Lee’s reserves being weakened.
Thus, allowing yers to step into a sure-death situation was definitely unwise.
Nnd Lee essed the task interface in his mind, selected the task he had issued, and manually updated the task details.
About two minutester, all yers who had epted the task “Unqualified Tool Man” received a prompt from the game.
[Task Condition Update: “Unqualified Tool Man” has changed.]
[Task Details: The Angel Enterprises Alliance encircles the Demon God Host without killing it and deliberately leaves a Quantum Leap Beacon ced by yers. The scent of conspiracy grows rapid. Perhaps leaving this ce before the most pessimistic scenario unfolds is an extremely wise choice.]
The task information was updated.
Nnd Lee surveyed the yer fleet stationed at the edge of the battlefield.
Scattered lights flickered, and a small group of cautious yers heeded the advice and immediately piloted their ships to leap away.
After these more cautious yers left, another group hesitated for a moment between the imminent danger and the tempting profits before them, ultimately choosing also to distance themselves from the hotspot.
Nnd Lee patiently waited, his understanding of yers’ “greed” bing increasingly clear.
“Ah, good words are hard to persuade the destined dead,”
Nnd Lee chuckled and shook his head, reflecting:
“Those who left aren’t as numerous as those approaching. After I updated the task information, the number of people on the scene actually increasedpared to just now.”
Nnd Lee was at a loss for words about the yers’ persistence.
Just then, several guild fleets quantum leaped over, joining therge force spectating the battle.
This scenepletely dispelled Nnd Lee’s intention of further warning the yers.
Indeed, yers aren’t afraid of death; they can treat “dying once” as a price for continuously learning from mistakes.
For them, only life in reality is the one-time consumable that is truly irreceable.
Unless someone whispers in their ear and tells them how their real selves might be affected if they don’t act otherwise, not a single yer would retreat due to a potential death of their game character.
Thinking of this, Nnd Lee recalled the pollution of “Starry Sea” by the Dark Divine Cult and the existence known as “Old Ghost.”
“I wonder, has Gold Dragon in the Sky found Old Ghost in reality?”
Nnd Lee thought to himself quietly as his body drifted away from the battlefield.
Halfway there, Nnd Lee pped his forehead and muttered, almost forgetting something important.
He was now seen as an NPC in the eyes of the yers.
The attitude of NPCs toward yers depended on the level of favorability between the NPC and the yer.
For yers like Golden Dragon in the Sky, Cucumber Slice, and Strawberry Juice, their favorability level with Nnd Lee was definitely higher than that of other yers.
Nnd Lee realized that he needed to offer more care to yers like Golden Dragon in the Sky, such as checking on their status and personally warning them to stay away from deadly events.
Only in this way could Nnd Lee use the word of the yers to promote the role of this NPC and attract more yers toe and raise favorability levels.
Nnd Lee had already figured out how to increase favorability.
Once the yers were fully ustomed to life in the Academy, he would announce it publicly.
Now, he could take advantage of the current situation to let the yers know the benefits of boosting his favorability level.
Nnd Lee moved away from the battlefield while using magic to search for Golden Dragon in the Sky and the others.
“…Hmm, let me look…”
Nnd Lee did not have the habit of using magic to eavesdrop on and track yers, so finding specific targets in a short time was a bit difficult.
“It seems I need to leave a mark on yers with high favorability levels in the future, to avoid scrambling around…”
Nnd Lee quietly made a n, then his gaze sharpened, and he murmured with a faint smile:
“Oh, found them. The Cucumber Slice Team has also joined the fray.”
Nnd Lee ced a magical mark on Cucumber Slice and the others for easier trackingter on.
Afterpleting this step, he swiftlyposed a sudden task and sent it out to Cucumber Slice and the others.
The task essentially said:
The master of the ck Hole Magic Academy sensed an impending crisis on you, and since you have performed exceptionally well within the Academy, the master specifically came to warn you.
It must be said, the title of Master of the Academy was quite useful.
The Cucumber Slice Team’s battleship immediately left the battle scene.
However, they did not all leave.
They sent one person over to another ship, likely wanting that person to record the uing scenes for a promotional video.
Nnd Lee had no objections to this and focused on locating Golden Dragon in the Sky.
“Strange…where is Golden Dragon in the Sky?”
Nnd Lee searched for a while and only saw elite yers from the “Golden Dragon” guild, but not Golden Dragon in the Sky.
He listened to the guild yers’ conversations using mental magic and found out that Golden Dragon in the Sky was ill and had not logged on.
“Well, you could say Golden Dragon in the Sky is lucky.”
Nnd Lee shook his head slightly, a thought crossed his mind, “Could Golden Dragon in the Sky’s illness have something to do with Old Ghost?” But then he dismissed it.
Because Nnd Lee was unable to peer into the yers’ “real” world.
Even though he had this suspicion, he couldn’t verify it and thought it better to put it out of mind and wait until Golden Dragon in the Sky logged on again.
Nnd Lee deactivated the yer-searching magic.
Almost at the same time, his figure trembled slightly, and a heavy sense of foreboding filled his heart.
“Something is approaching this space!”
Nnd Lee furrowed his brows and sensed carefully.
The approaching entity moved erratically, as if converging on the center of the battle from all directions.
Nnd Lee was always cautious, cautious, and even more cautious about unknown things.
Without a word, he elerated his flight, moving away from the battlefield at a faster speed.
The uneasy feeling in his heart faded with the increasing distance but neverpletely disappeared.
Suddenly, Nnd Lee felt as if someone had forcefully struck his soul from behind.
He quickly turned his head, looked towards the chaotic battlefield, and his pupils involuntarily dted.
The cosmic space, which housed the transport fleet, the Artificial Angels, the Demon God Host, and the massive yer fleet, was now upied by arge screen filled with a gray mosaic.
In the blink of an eye, the gray mosaic disappeared without a trace, and the cosmic space reappeared, but there was no trace of any ships left.
Whether it was Artificial Angels, Demon God Hosts, or yers, all had vanished without a trace, leaving only deep darkness behind.
Nnd Lee was stunned for a while, then his pupils adjusted slightly, his gaze focused, and he said with a very solemn expression:
“‘Space Erasure,’ I actually witnessed ‘Space Erasure’! This is the ability of the Superior Divine Power Angel – Gilenz!”
