Chapter 1225

~8 min read 1,416 words

Lu Se looked at his hands and body, which were flowing with flames, in surprise and asked in shock, "What are you doing?"

"You are strong. My power, borrow it," the little fire person said.

"I'm strong? Heh, I'm the weakest one here, only a little better than that horse and that dragon. Our lord is the strongest. You'd be better off taking..." As Lu Se said this, he gently twisted his hands simultaneously, and the air sword, which was originally over a meter long, 'whooshed' and surged to over three meters in length.

Lu Se took a deep breath: "Borrowing it to use is actually quite good. It's really fragrant." After saying this, he rushed over and went on a chopping spree.

The rest of the people were stunned by the little fire person's actions. Nigris said in shock: "It... what is it doing? Did it possess Lu Se?"

Anthony looked blank: "They don't have a subordinate relationship, nor do they have a soul connection. How could it possess him? It's just wrapped around Lu Se's body. Let's call it armor-transformation."

"That's good, that's good. You scared me. Don't blow Lu Se up," Nigris said with a sigh of relief.

Often when reading those knight novels, an ordinary person with no power foundation can also contract powerful demons, gods, giant dragons, etc. This is actually quite dangerous. While establishing a contract relationship, one must also establish a connection at the soul or consciousness level. If the mental strength gap is too large, a single thought from the other party can stun, drive crazy, or drive a person insane.

Summoners, puppeteers, elemental summoners, etc., have very high mental power and strong willpower themselves. Even so, they won't casually contract summoned creatures of too high a level.

And between a Dragon Knight and a giant dragon, there isn't even a soul connection; it's more of a bond of friendship (or love?). After all, a creature like a giant dragon...

Professionals cannot contract creatures that are too powerful, let alone ordinary people. That is purely a novelist's fantasy.

And relative to the little fire person, the gap for Lu Se is no different from that of an ordinary person relative to a god. If it were possession or symbiosis, he would very likely be driven insane...

Uh, not necessarily. Lu Se is already a Star God, and his consciousness is also in the white crystal. This structure can ensure that he can withstand the non-malicious consciousness impact of the little fire person.

Realizing he had overthought it, Nigris hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Armor-transformation is also quite perverted. After all, with a Star God's power armored on his body, those stick insects probably can't even hurt him."

Whether they could hurt him or not, no one knew in the end, because Lu Se didn't let them hit him. After a chopping spree, he came back carrying a dozen white crystals and a big, thick leg.

"Here, for you, a gift from your uncle." Lu Se threw the big, thick leg in front of Gampasa's two trembling relatives.

At this moment, that large stick insect finally realized why Gampasa had so enthusiastically knocked its head off. Could it be that these humans it thought were food were this terrifying?

Lu Se didn't feel there was anything special about it. He was a melee genius among humans. He entered the Sword Saint level in his twenties. His perception, application, and understanding of power were top-notch. This was not only reflected in his level but also in his learning ability.

Others who obtained a Star God's half-body might not have learned how to shape it even now, but he had already cultivated origin battle aura and started to manifest swords with battle aura. This speed of understanding power is the most formidable thing about a genius Sword Saint.

With a genius Sword Saint's perception of power, combined with the little fire person's power armor-transformation, these low-level descendants were truly as easy to deal with as chopping melons and vegetables. Even without the little fire person's help, Lu Se himself was a Star God; he would still chop them like melons and vegetables.

Handing the collected white crystals to Ang, Lu Se slipped back into the team, hugging his arms, listening to Anthony and Nigris analyze the situation, looking not at all like someone who had just chopped down a dozen Star God descendants.

Nigris took one last look at the little fire person on top of Lu Se's head and continued to classify: "Earth Rank, Sky Rank, Void Rank, Star God Half-Body, Star God Rank, Star Lord Rank. That makes six levels. Do we need to continue dividing?"

Anthony shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I originally wanted to classify them to make bargaining easier. Now it's fine; Lu Se scared them. Whatever price we ask, they should all agree."

Originally, he wanted to classify them to facilitate cooperation with Gampasa. To cooperate, there must be a corresponding offer. How to reflect value? Classification is the simplest way.

Clearly, both are beef; why is Grade 1 meat so much more expensive than Grade 9 meat? Is Grade 1 beef nine times tastier than Grade 9 beef? Impossible, but the price might be a hundred times more expensive.

Classifying according to different parameters is formally called market segmentation, and colloquially called ripping them off a few more times. Now that there are six levels, the matter of 'helping you upgrade' can be used to rip them off a few more times.

Even if Anthony is kind-hearted and only rips them off once, the customer satisfaction of upgrading three levels is definitely higher than upgrading only once.

Unfortunately, Lu Se's actions scared the Gampasa family. Now, let alone bargaining, if we asked them to twist their own heads off, they would probably do it.

The method for upgrading Star God descendants was invented by the Lord of Star Descendants. It can improve the strength of the descendants, at least to the point of being able to move continuously in the void, but there is no way to let Star God descendants possess the ability of Star Shift.

Being able to move continuously in the void is enough. After Ang upgraded Gampasa, it was very excited.

"Don't be excited, don't be excited. Now our lord has already bestowed upon you Void Rank strength. One more step and you can reach Star God Half-Body, which is Lu Se's level. This requires your own effort. Now, your task is to take us to the settlement of the Star God descendants, the one closest to the God Tree. After completing the task, we will upgrade your wife and children," Anthony said.

With the level division, it sounds much better: You have already upgraded two levels, and one more level and you will be as strong as the guy who chopped down a dozen of your peers.

It excited Gampasa terribly, and without a word, it took everyone and flew toward the void.

The little angel, little zombie, and others were all Star God Half-Bodies. As long as they virtualized their forms and hid within Gampasa's form, they could sneak into any place silently.

Unless someone attacked Gampasa and blew its form apart, even if a thought scanned over, it would be very difficult to distinguish the forms of the little angel and others from its form.

With a native Star God descendant like Gampasa, sneaking into the corresponding place was not difficult. Flying into the void, two patrolling giant dragons took one look at it and ignored it.

"Sure enough, it's like this. The lord said that every Star God's descendant has its own unique aura. Our white crystals all belong to the Cang Star God, possessing its aura. Descendants of other Star Gods can see the difference at a glance," Anthony said in a low voice.

"No wonder you went to such great lengths. But hasn't Ang already engraved a brand on its white crystal? Wouldn't it be enough to order it directly?" Nigris asked, puzzled.

Anthony said: "I don't like using coercive means. That would lack subjective initiative. Making others cooperate actively and willingly, and making their interests consistent with ours, is the most effective way."

While chatting, Gampasa, who had been flying toward the void, suddenly made a turn and descended toward the Star God. In that direction, a huge black shadow almost covered half of the Star God's surface.
