Chapter 355: The Calm Before the Storm

Onsite, the Reincarnators pulled out desktop computers and played at 100x speed:

《Ultra Galaxy Legend》, 《One Punch Man》, 《JoJo》, 《One Hundred Thousand Jokes》!

"winwinwin~"

"Want to beat me? Not in twenty thousand years!"

"Why is everyone in the universe speaking Chinese!"

……

Since tomorrow's battle was at stake, all the Fourth Transcenders stared intently at the screens, analyzing with academic rigor.

"This Broly is so strong—if he hadn't met Goku, he might've destroyed Earth."

"Dio's ability is time stop? That's troublesome."

"So the King of Bird-Not-Shitting's power is just dumb energy—no wonder he's always acting foolish."

……

Not far away, the Reincarnators gathered, watching a group of Fourth Transcenders squatting before computers catching up on anime, their expressions peculiar.

"Boss, is this some kind of Lu's movie-watching stream?" a female Reincarnator couldn't help asking.

"All I want to know is why these Fourth Transcenders act just like the villains from these films," Chong Tian Xiaohe muttered in confusion: "Where's the copyright awareness?"

After all, the world they crossed into was an unreleased spin-off of the Carnival Day movie—how could so many characters from different copyrights and studios appear in an animated film?

"I did hear a rumor," a female Reincarnator said:

"I heard Carnival Day's Star River Company is buying up character rights en masse—they want to make an interactive movie like Player One."

"But that still doesn't explain where these anime characters came from, or what these Fourth Transcenders pretending to be them are trying to do?" Chong Tian Xiaohe scratched his head, utterly baffled by this pre-battle mobilization.

As they discussed, Chu Huang hesitated, then stepped forward: "A few days ago, we discovered one of Fang Can's subordinates is a Third Transcender named Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze—do you know him?"

The Reincarnators exchanged glances, utterly speechless: "Of course we know—Naruto, right? I'll send you the original manga later."

Hearing the Reincarnator's words, Chu Huang felt a flicker of relief.

Good thing the Reincarnators joined early—now with these biographies, they could launch targeted decapitation strikes against the enemies.

Half an hour later, after finishing these works, the Fourth Transcenders on-site fully grasped the mechanics.

"Rest easy," Yang Xu Zi raised his hand: "We're not facing the original characters. We're facing Fourth Transcenders who only possess their memories and some traits."

"So things like the Planet Burst Cannon or Dio's time stop? They're merely manifestations of the Fourth Transcenders' legacies—nothing as exaggerated as in the originals."

"Now we can discuss how to counter these Fourth Transcenders."

At Yang Xu Zi's words, the Fourth Transcenders nodded in agreement.

Ye Hao gently tightened his collar: "Dio and I share the same legacy—I can hold him off."

"Then this cosmic overlord, Broly, is mine," rumbled the burly man with Earth Power, grinning savagely: "Let me face him."

"We have numerical superiority—no need for one-on-one," Chong Tian Xiaohe couldn't help saying: "We must uphold the righteous spirit of mobbing—three-on-one is safest."

Chu Huang nodded: "New intel shows more characters beyond these—minimum one more from Naruto. Everyone, pass these around."

"Not just us—First through Third Transcenders must study these works carefully."

"Tomorrow, the main forces clash, kings against kings—we Fourth Transcenders must all go out to fight Fang Can and his four. The rest must counterattack his troops."

At this, Ye Hao looked seriously at Chong Tian Xiaohe: "Can your computers be made public tomorrow? If new characters appear, we can share info through mental links."

"Naturally fine," Chong Tian Xiaohe said seriously: "But I suggest you hold back—let lower-tier warriors consume their intelligence and buy time first."

"This is a war of attrition. In ten days, I can pull more reinforcements from the Master God Space—then Fang Can will fall at a gesture."

Clearly, based on the Master God Space's evaluation, they didn't think Fang Can would be easy to defeat.

After hesitation, the Fourth Transcenders all refused:

"No need—we already know Fang Can's Fourth Transcenders. Let's crush him in one decisive strike. The lower-tier ones just need to hold back his army."

Seeing the Fourth Transcenders refuse, the Reincarnators silently cursed but acquiesced.

Elsewhere, as the Fourth Transcenders debated, Fang Can propped his cheek in his hand, gazing at the bright moon in the deep night.

Before him, Jiang Qilan's luminous white arms, glowing even in darkness, gently embraced him, her face tilted up to his profile—like a moonlit Guanyin emerging from her shell.

"Fang… Fang Gege, if we do this, won't Ning'an get jealous?" The girl's cheeks flushed faintly, pouting.

She recalled a few days ago, when Fang Can stormed into the palace, furious, ignoring everything, dragging her onto the bed.

What? The Empress? Isn't that more thrilling?

Then came the night spent on the dragon bed—committing the capital crime of touching the Empress.

Facing Ning'an's words, Fang Can, whose fury had just surged and subsided, replied calmly:

"Fighting one or fighting ten thousand—it's all the same battle to me."

As he spoke, he lightly patted Jiang Qilan's back: "Keep riding—tonight, think of no one else. It belongs only to you."

After speaking, watching Jiang Qilan softly hum, Fang Can's expression remained blank.

In his rage state, Fang Can felt only two emotions: lust and destructive urge.

Tonight, he would fully satisfy the former—tomorrow, only pure destructive desire would remain.

Thinking this, he gently curled his finger, signaling the two maids beside him to approach.

Outside the palace, within the encircling territories of Dayan:

The four villains transformed by Fang Can each took one of the four cardinal directions to guard.

Like Fang Can, they felt no worry about tomorrow's battle.

Before them lay a thousand coffins, each holding a warrior transformed in these past days.

Additionally, 500,000 First Transcender player bodies, utterly remade by Li Huowang into uniform models.

Amid the intense preparations of both sides, this short night passed swiftly.
