Chapter 655

Chapter 655: Chapter 588: Successful Acquisition Chapter 655: Chapter 588: Successful Acquisition “Not bad for a general famous for his battles,” he said.

“This kind of combat experience is something I can’t compare with.”

Tao Yu had fully awakened his talent just over two years ago, and although one could say that he hadn’t stopped fighting along the way, his pure combat experience was indeed limited.

However…

You have technique, I have skills!

And they’re Deified!

Tao Yu spread his hands out, and an Energy Ball resembling that of a Tailed Beast began to condense in front of him, its body itself becoming multicolored and continuously twisting and shaping.

Under the control of the Giftsmith, the condensation of a new Noble Phantasm was being completed.

…

The Giftsmith inherently increased forging skills and fine control, but it didn’t come with blueprints; those were all provided by Sauron.

Besides those, Tao Yu also had a blueprint that he had researched for a long time and had never used before!

Gem Sword!

Because of the complexity of the Gem Sword, although Tao Yu had clarified the principles through related magic knowledge, he had never been able to replicate it successfully.

The requirements for operation detail were too high, which could be considered Tao Yu’s shortcoming.

Especially now when his powers had not yet been fully digested.

But now, with Sauron’s Giftsmith, he could also complete a one-time attempt!

Streaks of void inscriptions outlined, and the distorted, colorful Tailed Beast Energy Ball began to take on a clear shape and change.

It then transformed into the shape of a sword.

“With my current control, it shouldn’t break the Barrier directly…”

If it would still break the Barrier after all this digestion, wouldn’t it all be for naught!

As streaks of Rune Inscriptions began to condense around the Gem Sword, a sense of causal connection also finished taking shape.

Even Esdeath seemed to feel this kind of ‘fate’ between them, but she, who had been on the run from Noble Phantasms and constantly disturbed by the Chains of Heaven, was already too exhausted to be distracted.

She could only watch, wide-eyed, as Tao Yu made a distant slash through the air towards her.

The black face of the Black Mud seemed to split cleanly as if the entire space had been sliced through on a spatial level!

Crack~

Esdeath herself appeared mirrored and misaligned along the split, and then she was cleaved in two.

In her final moments of death, her face still bore a look of surprise,

“I never expected to see something so beautiful…”

And then…

Plop~

The Innate Barrier split in two, showing noticeable misalignment.

Even the sea outside the Barrier suddenly misaligned, creating a smooth cut.

The sea level was a full meter higher on one side!

It was as if a jigsaw puzzle piece had been placed incorrectly.

As the remaining power gradually dissipated, the smooth, uneven surface that was raised by a meter also abruptly collapsed.

Although it was only a one-meter misalignment, the released energy stirred up a tsunami starting from the seabed, rolling and spreading far and wide…

…

“It shattered a bit too much—quite hard to piece together…”

Tao Yu first restored the Innate Barrier, then spent half a day to successfully gather the scattered spirituality of Esdeath within the Innate Barrier, starting the enslavement and reshaping covered by the Black Mud.

“Oh, I hope the memory loss isn’t too severe.”

Tao Yu felt that using Dream Spirit Contact now, there likely wouldn’t be many fragmentary images to go by.

Better to restore as much of her will as possible and let her find her own memories.

This was indeed a technical job…

“Though her combat experience was vast, there wasn’t much leeway for holding back.”

With Tao Yu’s efforts, the nude figure of Esdeath finally emerged once more, and speak of the devil, although a bit mad, her basic assets were indeed impressive.

“This is…”

Esset reappeared, his expression initially blank, but quickly regained a hint of vitality, and he lifted his hand to look at his pale palm.

He didn’t mind showing off his graceful figure in front of Tao Yu.

“I remember I should be dead…, is this what you called Grazing?”

“Yes, it seems quite a bit of your memory has been retained.”

Tao Yu was quite satisfied.

“To your disappointment, the things I remember clearly are only from just before my death; other memories are a bit chaotic, as if someone stirred them up and crammed them in.”

Esset tapped his head, leaving Tao Yu somewhat at a loss for words.

The one who crammed them was me…

“However, it’s not bad now.

You are stronger than me, and only the strong have the right to define, while the weak just need to obey.

So, do you require my services in bed…

”

Esset stretched out his fair arm, wrapping it around Tao Yu’s neck, a mischievous smile naturally forming on his face, although his cheeks were slightly red, seemingly unaccustomed to such actions but forcibly maintaining composure.

Tao Yu was aware of her situation and didn’t call her out on it; instead, he casually embraced her smooth waist, and his hand began to descend.

The abilities brought on by the Pleasure Witch, coupled with the skills from practice battles with the young heiress, were electrifying, and they immediately caused Esset to stiffen up before he countered with a question,

“Are you sure?”

But at this moment, the blue-haired beauty was so flustered that she could hardly speak, merely biting her lip.

“Pretending to be a big bad wolf when you’re just a weak chicken…”

Tao Yu stopped using the Pleasure Witch’s skill and then took out a blob of mercury-like substance that floated in the air.

“For now, use this as your base and get used to the power you now have.

If there’s anything you don’t understand, Scathach can teach you.”

What Tao Yu pulled out was indeed the item dropped after Esset was killed.

Like Sauron, she was a Fortune Thief, and although she wouldn’t drop skills, her innate power coalesced once again into the Imperial Arms “Demon God Manifestation.”

Tao Yu had swallowed this thing to experience it, and the effect could only be said to be average.

The ability, “Frozen Time,” which could be used once a day, claimed to freeze time, but such a physical form of freezing was easily broken by the strong.

In terms of volume, it should only be the level of Esset before she absorbed the Yuan Force to grow.

It was strong, but just an Imperial Arms mode, somewhat useless for him.

Instead, it was better for Tao Yu to directly reintegrate it into her, allowing her to become complete, and then to call upon the power through her using the method of Legion’s Strength, which pooled a power even greater than if Tao Yu used it himself with Kaji.

“You are the strong one, your word is law.

Shall I call you master?”

Esset’s voice still trembled slightly, her face flushed, but she spoke with firmness.

However, it must be said, her temperament, coupled with the effects of enslavement after Grazing, was quite perfect; she wouldn’t be resistant and could fully execute any arrangement.

Not like Medici, who might slack off during less critical times…

…

Meanwhile, far across the sea, Tao Yu and Esdeath had unleashed a great battle in the deep ocean, even causing a tsunami that rippled toward another direction.

The ‘Explorer’ aircraft carrier, moving in the opposite direction of the tsunami, also attracted many formidable enemies, and amid the high-intensity battle, it failed to notice the slight decline in the sea level.

That pirate ship, seemingly just a tiny craft compared to the carrier, was surprisingly agile.

Faced with various attacks sweeping over from the deck, each was cleverly evaded.

Cannonballs and rocket fire continued to fall around the ship, creating intense sprays of water.

“We must also show our worth; we can’t rely solely on the general to deal with the enemies!”

A white-haired gentleman stood at the forefront of the wooden sailboat’s deck.

As the sailboat sailed at high speed, his robe fluttered loudly, and the nearby explosions and sprays of water, caused by falling shells, didn’t elicit the slightest change in his expression.

Those attacks that might have hit the ship were entirely blocked by the sudden rise of sea water in front of him – he seemed to possess a formidable ability to control water.

Judging by the casual way he dealt with the barrage of fire, his strength was indeed not weak.

“Shall we board?

If the ‘Priest’ has made such a nauseating arrangement, then the people on that ship are probably not weak.”

A petite and handsome young man sighed as he spoke.

“Our numbers are incomplete; wouldn’t it be a bit risky relying solely on us?”

“If all the fights are left to the general, then what use are we?”

The silver-haired gentleman Liwa rebutted righteously.

“The general has said that the weak have no value in existence.

We must prove we are the strong ones, at the very least to the people on that ship!”
