Chapter 474: Why Does My Professional Panel Have an Anime Art Style?

"Just stay put and watch obediently from the side."

Afra forcibly suppressed the fury in her heart, ignored the noisy voice, and asked in a low voice with a frown: "What did you discover?"

Faced with the inquiry, Gavin did not play coy and answered directly: "If I'm not mistaken, those few behind the scenes are likely involved in this matter, so it can only be handed over to the three Speakers for handling."

Upon hearing this, Afra's heart skipped a beat, and her expression instantly became extremely awkward: "Are you certain?"

"Mm."

Gavin nodded slightly, indicating that he probably hadn't guessed wrong.

The matter was already quite clear, after all that Rank Seven alchemist from 【Taiyi Miracle】 had not concealed his own purpose from the very beginning.

Moreover, such a huge commotion had been stirred up here in the Obsidian Starfield, yet the Federation's reinforcements had still not arrived — to say there was nothing fishy going on, Gavin himself wouldn't believe it.

What he feared was—

The military commander cut off the thought, not daring to dwell on it further.

And so, with Afra's suppression gone, spiderweb-like cracks crawled across the entire Obsidian Starfield at an extremely rapid speed.

At this moment, the Obsidian Starfield was like prey caught in a spider's web, able only to quietly await the arrival of its fate.

Li Ang stared at the scene before him, and finally understood why Seth had said running was useless.

However, just as he was thinking this, he heard the old dragon beside him mutter in some confusion: "Strange... why is it different from what's recorded within the Group?"

"?"

Before Li Ang could voice his question, a beam of pure white light had already illuminated the entire starfield.

The next instant, an incomparably tremendous suction force surged out from within the rift, as if intending to swallow the entire Obsidian Starfield whole.

As if realizing something, Seth's expression instantly changed: "*Dragon Essence! This isn't a World Impact! That bastard wants to do it in reverse!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ang was first stunned, but then immediately figured out what the current situation was.

If a World Impact was another world smashing into the main universe, then what Izer wanted to do was carve the Obsidian Starfield out of the main universe and swallow it down.

Are the Rank Eight advancement conditions really this insane?! Keep in mind that the size of a single person's world is only about half a starfield!

That's not right—

Would the main universe really allow something like this to happen?!

Just as Li Ang was thinking this, the 【Traveller】 talent refreshed with a new message.

【Kill him】.

"..."

Seeing this message, Li Ang didn't know what to say for a moment.

This was the first time he had seen the main universe act so anthropomorphically — it was obvious that Izer's actions had already touched upon Its core interests.

But the key problem was, how the hell was he supposed to take the guy out?!

Even setting aside the Rank Seven professionals present, he wasn't Izer's match either.

As if realizing that doing so was indeed somewhat inappropriate, the message given by the 【Traveller】 talent quickly changed.

【Stop him】.

Now that's much more reasonable...

Reasonable my ass!

Li Ang's face fell, wanting to tell the main universe not to make such unreasonable demands — at most he'd wait until he developed more in the future and then help It get Its payback.

But even without the main universe's request, he still had to find a way to escape, after all who knew what would happen after being swallowed by Izer.

Fortunately, Li Ang still had a fallback — directly returning to his own one-person world.

That bald guy couldn't possibly chase him across worlds, right?

But doing so was also very risky, as it would easily expose his secret of being able to traverse worlds.

And thinking about it in an even worse direction, those two gazes from earlier might very well be watching this place too.

But he really had no choice—

Wait.

As if thinking of something, Li Ang's expression instantly became strange.

Based on his understanding of the main universe, even if It had no consciousness, It shouldn't just let him go and die like this.

Since It had put forward the task of stopping Izer, that meant he truly had the ability to accomplish this step.

'... 【Divine Art: Infinity】?'

As the events that had previously occurred on the planet Morabis flashed through his mind, Li Ang couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

Maybe, perhaps, probably, possibly he really could pull some tricks on Izer?

And at this moment, although Seth had slightly sensed that the young dragon beside him had emotions fluctuating like a roller coaster, going up and down, he merely assumed the other was acting this way because he was in a perilous situation.

But the old dragon couldn't be bothered with so much right now either.

He took out a huge ruby from his storage equipment, then instructed Li Ang: "Hold on a little longer, I'll try to contact His Majesty Sadiwo."

Sadiwo, the Ruby Dragon, Lord of the Gem Dragons.

Hearing Seth's words, this information instantly flashed through Li Ang's mind.

Although he didn't know what level this lesser deity from DND would count as in the main universe, since the other could fish people out in a situation like this, he definitely wouldn't be weaker than Rank Seven, right?!

Li Ang's heart instantly settled.

It's in the bag!

Since he didn't need to consider a fallback, it was time for him to show Izer something fierce.

Did he really think Li Ang had no temper at all?!

More crucially, Li Ang didn't think letting Izer advance to Rank Eight would end well for him either.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and used his Rinne Sharingan to look at the enormous rift in the distance that was continuously eroding the Obsidian Starfield.

At this moment, the rift, due to its earlier expansion, had already revealed the true scene within — shockingly, countless tattooed bald men.

Only now they had already gathered together, forming an incomparably enormous human silhouette.

Behind the silhouette was a phantom image extremely similar to 【Hundred Aspects Refinement】, except the number of creatures within far exceeded that of 【Hundred Aspects Refinement】.

And Yize was quietly standing atop the head of the giant silhouette, his expression slightly stirred as he watched the scene before him.

Seeing this, Li Ang immediately cast 【Divine Art · Infinity】 on Yize.

As a large amount of fresh blood overflowed from his left eye, the Rinne Sharingan instantly radiated countless scarlet rays of light.

Unfortunately, to Li Ang's disappointment, Yize was not affected in the slightest — he merely furrowed his brow slightly, as if sensing that something was amiss.

'Could I have guessed wrong?'

Seeing this, Li Ang felt a moment of confusion.

Just then, an explosive sound reached his ears.

Bang—!

Seths looked at the rubies shattered all over the ground before him, his expression extremely grim: "We've been interfered with. There's no way to contact the outside now."

"*Dragon Essence!"

The old dragon had not expected that madman from 【Immortal Evolution】 to have prepared so thoroughly.

Fortunately, he was not completely without options. Since he couldn't summon Lord Sadiwo over, he would summon Bahamut, Your Majesty!

If Bahamut, Your Majesty wouldn't do, then Lord Io!

If even Lord Io wouldn't do, then he truly had no moves left.

Just as Seths was about to take out the platinum dragon god's sigil, he suddenly noticed Li Ang staring blankly at the rubies scattered across the ground.

He thought Li Ang was feeling disappointed that Lord Sadiwo had failed to appear, so he offered words of comfort: "Don't worry. If Bahamut, Your Majesty notices what's happening here, he absolutely won't stand by and do nothing."

Hearing this, Li Ang came back to his senses, but said nothing more — he merely waved slightly to signal Seths to continue summoning people, then turned his gaze to the giant silhouette that was now within arm's reach.

If — and this is a big if — what would happen if 【Divine Art · Infinity】 were cast on this thing?

Carrying an anticipation that came from he knew not where, Li Ang attempted to release 【Divine Art · Infinity】 on the giant silhouette.

In an instant, the originally surging ocular power was abruptly drained dry, but fortunately 【The Third Magic】 completed its replenishment just in time.

'It works!'

In just a moment, Li Ang realized his guess had been correct.

In that case—

Third Magic, let me see your limit!

Under the effect of the continuously output ocular power, the giant silhouette's expression froze, and it then raised its palm with a hint of bewilderment.

His sudden movement caused Yize to involuntarily freeze.

But immediately after, he realized something, and his expression underwent an extremely violent change: "Who is it!?"

"Get out here!"

The furious roar spread throughout the entire Stellar Radiance Black Domain, and all living beings trembled before this existence on the verge of stepping into the supreme hall.

Only Li Ang looked at this alchemy master with a strange expression.

As expected, it has to be you, 【Da Luo Dong Guan】.

Since 【Da Luo Dong Guan】 had previously been able to evade the gazes of those two whose energy levels were unknown, it was impossible that it couldn't evade Yize, who was currently only at the Sixth Energy Level.

Though Li Ang felt that perhaps the main universe had also contributed to it.

On the other side.

A group of Seventh Energy Level professionals who were watching also noticed Yize's abnormality.

Afra looked at the crazed-looking tattooed bald men within the rift, and a hint of doubt first flashed through her eyes, but was immediately masked by mockery.

The bratty councilwoman bared her teeth, her tone extremely malicious as she said: "Hahaha, another overambitious idiot. Does he really think skipping tiers is that easy?"

Cross-tier class advancement was already extremely difficult, let alone skipping from the Sixth Energy Level to the Eighth — a leap across a major class.

As for what Yize had just said, Afra didn't take it seriously at all, dismissing it as the wailing of a loser.

However, unlike this councilwoman, 【Supreme Miracle】 and 【Immortal Evolution】 had once made predictions regarding whether Yize could successfully advance his class, and the results showed he would basically not fail — otherwise they wouldn't have supported him so strongly.

Unless someone interfered.

Therefore, they believed Yize's words.

'Who on earth is it—'

The two Seventh Energy Level professionals slightly furrowed their brows, continuously scanning the starfield before them.

Unfortunately, in the end, they didn't discover anything unusual.

Except for a certain old dragon who was currently trying to summon people.

Just then, an incomparably furious roar burst from Yize's mouth: "Who on earth is it!? How dare they stop me—!"

Before he could finish speaking, the giant silhouette beside him had already begun to collapse.

【Divine Art · Infinity】 had taken effect.

"No!!"

Accompanied by Yize's utterly devastated roar, the component bodies that made up the giant silhouette fell like raindrops.

After an unknown length of time, the alchemy master stared blankly at the vast sea of component bodies beneath his feet, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "How is this possible… decades of planning, and yet—"

"No… there's still a chance!"

"Right, I still have a chance!"

As he spoke, Yize grew excited once more.

Countless spider silk instantly spread from his back, then connected to the sea of component bodies beneath his feet.

Since there was no way to directly become an Eighth Energy Level powerhouse, he would proceed step by step and advance to the Seventh Energy Level.
