Chapter 17: Grandfather 682, the Repeated Sit-up Champion [Data requested!]

"It swallowed it, it swallowed it! How do you feel? How does it feel!?"

"Where are the super-moderators? Super-moderators, come save us!" ===== CHAPTER 35 =====

"Setting aside the moral and ethical issues, can you actually eat something like a Voidranger?"

"The Foundation says the Indestructible Reptile can derive energy from any matter it consumes. Looking at it now, I suspect it might be able to survive on photosynthesis in the future."

"Can someone explain why the antimatter didn't annihilate with the normal matter? Does physics no longer exist???"

……

This live-streamed mukbang was vivid and brutal; for the vast majority of the audience, it was a brand-new experience.

On one side was the Indestructible Reptile, which had just accomplished the feat of returning from the dead and demonstrated the heaven-defying ability to become stronger just by eating dirt.

On the other side were the Voidrangers of the Antimatter Legion; while these things had humanoid forms, whether they could even be considered organisms by conventional understanding was a question.

They were, furthermore, loathed by everyone across the entire universe.

It is common knowledge that when a Voidranger of the Antimatter Legion dies, it does not leave behind a corpse, but instead dissolves into light particles and vanishes.

The low-level soldiers known as Voidranger: Reavers were warriors who had not yet perished, reforged by the "War Forge" to gain the power known as "Destruction," with antimatter filling their broken bodies.

Although it is unknown why the antimatter did not undergo an annihilation reaction with the normal matter, let's just attribute it to the special abilities of the Path of "Destruction."

Sensing that the state of the Voidranger beneath it was not quite right.

The Indestructible Reptile’s speed in breaking its shell, tearing, and devouring increased by more than a notch.

It looked as if it were frantically stealing offerings.

Even with such effort, it still failed to salvage the Voidranger's remains.

Having successfully snatched back a few mouthfuls, the Indestructible Reptile could only watch helplessly as the remaining parts vanished.

Even though this was an enemy that had killed it once before, at this moment, it was reluctant to see it disappear.

The sense of déjà vu in this plot.

Even Silver Wolf, who was secretly invading the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou, couldn't help but comment:

"This plot looks a bit like a tragic romance."

Kafka: "?"

Meeting Kafka's puzzled gaze, Silver Wolf recounted a few commonly used settings and plot points.

Even though Kafka was knowledgeable and experienced, this sort of thing still exceeded her cognitive scope.

Her eyes widened, her expression becoming rich and colorful, with the words "you can play it like this too" written all over her face.

Kafka blinked, then quickly composed her expression, returning to her usual inscrutable appearance:

"A very novel story. Whose work is this literary master's?"

Silver Wolf blinked, summoned a light screen out of thin air, and pushed it in front of Kafka:

“Floating Life, Profound Yellow, White Emperor.”

"This author really likes using similar plots."

"Like the wedding night where the wife of the Daolang tribe must kill and eat her husband to conceive offspring."

"Oh, right, for this work, 'The Mouse I Hunted,' I highly recommend the Black Cat and White Cat pairing. This CP is just too good to ship."

Kafka: "……"

Flipping through the webpage, Kafka felt as if she had seen a new world; her brain seemed to have undergone a cosmic big bang.

A moment later, she pushed the light screen back and raised a hand to rub her brow:

"You’d better be normal; I’m scared."

Silver Wolf casually closed the webpage and continued blowing a bubble with her gum:

"It's fine. I saw that 'Profound Yellow White Emperor' had high ratings recently, so out of curiosity, I checked out his work. It's quite interesting."

"There's a character in his recent work called 'Cold-Faced Great Azure Dragon' that’s written quite funnily."

Kafka: "……"

She hoped "Profound Yellow White Emperor" wasn't alluding to [Blade].

In the footage.

The commotion caused by the Indestructible Reptile naturally attracted more Voidrangers.

Besides the mindless Voidranger: Reavers, there were also the slightly more intelligent Voidranger: Tramplers.

The latter were powerful beings capable of walking on air.

Realizing a new enemy had appeared, the Indestructible Reptile had just turned its body to face the threat.

When a projectile resembling an ice spike flashed by, striking its forehead; shards of ice scattered, but it also pierced through the forehead.

And so, the Indestructible Reptile died again.

It died inexplicably, and it died in a way that exceeded the audience's expectations.

But the audience had already witnessed the entire process of it being killed instantly, reborn, and then killing back.

They were already unfazed.

Jing Jing Yuan, seeing this scene, also frowned slightly.

He realized the immense war potential possessed by this creature.

It could not be truly killed, and it harbored an intense hatred for life.

This meant.

Any attempt to kill it would ultimately facilitate its evolution.

Therefore, one could only limit its mobility through means of sealing and torture.

And before it found a new way to counter, switch to the next method in time.

If the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou were to handle it, they wouldn't do any better than the Foundation.

"A very troublesome creature."

"Even the Aeon of 'Permanence' has not gone as far on the Path of 'Permanence' as the Foundation's containment object."

"Or perhaps, such vitality represents the true path to immortality?"

Thinking of immortality, thinking of permanence.

Jing Jing Yuan rarely showed a serious expression; sitting cross-legged before his desk, he tapped a white piece with his index finger, and a moment later, he smiled.

"I wonder what the members of the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' would think if they saw these ugly monsters achieving immortality……"

"While they themselves have to take the Vidyadhara marrow and transform into non-human forms just to attain it."

"Ha, never mind. The leader of the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' would surely say that the containment object is so ugly because it is walking on the wrong path."

"Then, members of the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus,' what will you do? If my Cloud Knights stand guard strictly and apply a little disturbance, how big a fish will be startled at such a moment?"

Having said this, Jing Jing Yuan placed a piece.

The white dragon coiled across the board, cutting off and devouring the black pieces' territory; it already held an absolute advantage.

In the sky's footage.

The dead Indestructible Reptile truly underwent a mutation.

Its skin gradually faded, becoming pale and shriveled.

Yet beneath the skin, new tissue seemed to be forming.

Time ticked by, second by second.

At an inadvertent moment, its heart began to beat again.

Sensing the change, red exclamation marks seemed to pop up over the heads of the Voidrangers.

The Voidranger: Reavers raised the blades on their arms and struck at it fiercely;

The Voidranger: Tramplers stood in mid-air, the three energy orbs circling their bodies merged, and they brought their hands together toward the center, erupting with a blue energy cone.

The white sloughed-off skin was severed and shattered.

But that was as far as it went.

In the expectant gaze of the audience.

The remaining sloughed skin peeled away, and a slightly smaller Indestructible Reptile, clad in silver-gray exoskeleton, appeared.

This exoskeleton looked very similar to that of the Voidrangers, yet it was completely different.

All attacks landing on this layer of exoskeleton were basically immunized!

"Roar——"

The Indestructible Reptile let out a long howl toward the sky.

Subsequently, it took the opportunity to bite at the Voidranger beside it.

"Crunch——"

The Voidranger managed to dodge, but the blade growing on its arm was bitten off and shattered.

The Indestructible Reptile chewed casually a few times before swallowing the blade. ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
