Chapter 357: Infinite Roles, Wisely Using AI

Along the frontier of Dayan, countless figures flickered along the boundary, arriving via teleportation arrays.

Unlike the direct confrontations of the Fourth Transformation.

For the sake of their lives, these Ascension Path warriors immediately concealed themselves upon landing.

But unlike the Ascension Path warriors, players’ eyes blazed with the passion of battle.

Since you won’t really die, of course you should fight to your heart’s content!

Players’ forms, after casting stealth spells, dove low through the forest in small groups.

“Brothers, we’ve hit the jackpot! Whether warrior or player, kill twenty First Transformation and you’ll ascend to Second Transformation.”

Zhao Guangrui’s eyes gleamed with excitement, then charged toward the battlefield with dozens of players, ignoring the warriors’ shouts behind them.

“Dying once only costs a thousand experience points—kill a First Transformation and you gain five thousand! This PVP game is worth it.”

“Charge, charge, charge—for the Horde!”

“Shut up, Horde scum—glory belongs to the Alliance!”

“Kill those players from the Dayan Fire Shadow faction!”

…

Moving through the dense forest, players continuously exchanged thoughts via their Mind Phases.

But amid their communication, a brilliant light flashed!

Tss—

A spray of blood shot through the air, staining the tree.

Surrounding players clearly saw a glowing dagger embedded in the invisible player’s forehead.

‘We’ve run into the front-line troops!’

The players’ hearts stirred, and then they saw at least a hundred thousand figures appear densely atop the distant hilltop.

With clear vision, the players could see these figures bore player IDs above their heads, yet their appearances and attire were identical—mass-produced clones.

They were countless muscular men with blue hair, wielding tridents, charging toward them while roaring incoherent phrases:

“I am Tang San!”

“I’m the real Tang San!”

“You’re all fakes!”

…

These Tangsans questioned one another.

But under the control of the Soul Calming Technique, they could not avoid charging toward the players.

“Face my technique—Sea Cucumber Trident!”

One Tang San leapt high and hurled his trident, piercing straight through a player’s body.

【Experience +5000】

As the player fell, the torrent of experience surged through Tang San—he felt his strength triple, and his Hundred-Day Foundation Establishment absorbed a significant portion.

Greed surfaced in Tang San’s eyes: ‘So you can kill to level up? These people have already earned their deaths!’

The next instant, the players’ eyes filled with terror as the hundred thousand Tangsans surged like locusts, unleashing countless techniques from their mouths:

“Fist named Thought Dance, Trident named Thought Dance, Palm named Tang Dance!”

Thought Dance Fist—thoughts gush like a spring!

Thought Dance Trident—never forget!

Tang Dance Palm—through lifetimes and rebirths!

Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu!! Xiao Wu!!!

I miss you so much, Xiao Wu!!!

Tang Dance’s Three Supreme Techniques!

Instantly, this technique, originally created by Huo Yuhao, was adapted by Tang San’s Mind Phase power.

Through the concentrated longing of one hundred thousand Tangsans for Xiao Wu, it formed a terrifying Mind Phase storm.

Like a great river, a torrent of energy surged forth, forging a brilliant yet withering golden path!

The lead player was instantly swept away by the golden energy storm.

Thousands of players spat blood, their bodies turning to ash, only to revive moments later.

Never expecting to be wiped out in a single clash, the revived players roared: “Fucking spawn of Tang San—wait till I get you!”

But before they could react, a dark shadow blotted out the sky above them.

Instinctively looking up, they saw a giant over a hundred meters tall plummeting from ten thousand meters high, his body parting layer upon layer of airwaves.

He was a colossal giant without skin, wrapped entirely in muscle and bone, radiating scorching steam.

In an instant, the giant used his terrifying gravitational potential energy to slam his legs into the earth.

Without a single reaction, all players within a hundred-meter radius were crushed into pulp, leaving behind a massive crater.

‘This is insane.’

Ten thousand meters away, Bai Fa Kakashi watched the battlefield through a telescope, observing the players’ battle.

Through the telescope, with sufficient energy, he could have snapped enemies’ necks remotely with Shinra Tensei—there was simply no chance for him to join the front-line fighting.

Far off, a towering figure of red energy, dozens of meters tall, charged into the player ranks.

At the head of the red energy, a man with Sharingan-patterned eyes and tear-streaked cheeks, clad in a red-cloud black robe, was enclosed.

Within the battlefield, enveloped by red energy, was the physically healthy Uchiha Sasuke.

Physical health meant no genetic illness to hinder his power; yet psychological health meant he could never awaken the Sharingan.

Thus, the one on the battlefield was Uchiha Sasuke—physically healthy, but mentally broken.

On the southern front, a figure engulfed in flames moved ceaselessly through the crowd.

These were flames that could not be extinguished—once touched, they burned until death.

His name was Agni; now alone, he did not know why he fought or killed.

He only remembered that many people had once told him… survive!

In this meat grinder, death occurred constantly—but fortunately, most of those dying were the players who had charged forward fastest.

Countless warriors seized the moment when players were pinned down by casualties, their expressions grim, even able to smell death clearly.

And yet… they didn’t recognize them!!

Weren’t Fang Can’s troops supposed to be characters from those works? Why don’t most of them look familiar?

They had all read JoJo, Naruto, Ten Cold, and Ultraman!

One warrior pulled out a notebook from his pack and began typing keywords based on previous cycle participants’ notes.

As a cycle participant’s computer, it naturally contained an AI program—so just ask the AI.

Warrior: Baidu AI, a giant without skin, about forty meters tall, radiating steam—what character is this from?

Baidu AI: A giant without skin, approximately forty meters tall, radiating steam, is a character from Attack on Titan. This character is the Colossal Titan, whose body continuously emits ultra-high-temperature steam and can regulate the amount released. However, emitting steam consumes the Colossal Titan’s muscle mass, making it unsuitable for prolonged combat.

‘Does Baidu AI actually work?’

The warrior’s eyes lit up, then he continued asking about the AI’s weaknesses before shouting:

“That red giant is from Attack on Titan—its weakness is the nape of the neck! Attack anywhere else and it regenerates infinitely—don’t waste time!”
