26: Chapter 26 S-Rank Contract, Divine Punishment!
"Life, Death, Calamity! Triple-Law fusion divine art!"
In the Virtual Universe backend, Number 77 watched White Phoenix, who was unwilling to exit the arena, with complex eyes.
White Phoenix was a Genius that it had personally unearthed in the Virtual Universe, and it understood White Phoenix's pride better than anyone else.
Having been severely wounded by someone whose Realm, Law comprehension, and equipment were all inferior to its own, White Phoenix felt terrible even though it had won.
However, Number 77 had to admit Chen Mo's excellence, which could even be called terrifying.
This terror did not lie in his current strength, but in his future.
"Three Supreme Laws, a self-created first-tier Divine Soul attack divine art; not only that, but this child's combat thinking also possesses a sophistication that exceeds his age.
Especially that seemingly desperate, suicidal attack, which was actually to get close to White Phoenix and create an opening for another divine art. Tsk tsk! 56, you've discovered a monster!"
Number 77 turned its gaze to its old friend, only to see a scene that made its jaw drop.
"Is the Federal military better, or are those big consortia better? Actually, a few Supreme Being families are also not bad..."
Number 56 was holding a list, picking one after another, clearly looking for a backer for Chen Mo.
"Hey, I'm talking to you!"
Number 77 glanced at its old friend with dissatisfaction and reached out to snatch the list, which already had many highlights, from the other's hand.
Good grief! The top forces of the Federation had all been marked with red circles.
However, Number 77 didn't find it strange; given the potential Chen Mo had displayed, he was indeed worthy of this level of support.
"What are you doing!"
Number 56, having its train of thought interrupted, glared at the other with dissatisfaction and snatched the list back.
"I'm talking to you. What rating are you planning to apply for for Chen Mo?"
"A-rank, of course! Does that even need to be asked?" Number 56 replied subconsciously.
"You, you're still so stubborn."
Number 77 sighed and continued: "Your position hasn't changed for so many years. I'm just saying, what if, what if Chen Mo could be rated S-rank? This is your chance to be promoted to a regional supervisor."
"What are you thinking?"
Number 56 couldn't help but roll its eyes at its old friend: "I think highly of Chen Mo, that's true, but I've never dared to hope he could be rated S-rank. Do you have any idea how few S-ranks the Federation produces in a year?"
"Why is it impossible? Three Supreme Laws! That alone would be fine; there are many A-rank Geniuses who have mastered multiple Supreme Laws, but..."
Number 77 extended its right hand and made a light swipe in front of it, and a close-up of Chen Mo releasing a curse divine art with his hand before being frozen appeared before them.
"A self-created divine art that fuses three Supreme Laws. Although the first tier is a bit low, this is his biggest 'selling point'!"
"But his Realm is very low, and his Divine Domain has just condensed." Number 56 hesitated before pointing out Chen Mo's current biggest weakness.
In the arena, everyone has the same Divine Power and Realm, but the virtual is ultimately just virtual. In reality, Chen Mo might not even be able to block White Phoenix's first sword strike.
"Realm and Divine Domain can both be rapidly grown through resources. Do you think those forces lack such resources?"
"That seems to be the case!" Number 56 nodded, but quickly shook its head again.
"No, I still need to discuss it with Chen Mo first. After all, an A-rank is guaranteed for him, and there are many forces to choose from, but only a handful can offer an s-rank contract."
As it spoke, Number 56 disappeared from the spot, leaving Number 77 sighing endlessly.
In its view, anyone would choose to take a gamble; those who can offer an s-rank contract are the most top-tier forces in the Federation.
However, it also understood Number 56's concerns; relying on top-tier forces has both pros and cons.
There is no one in this world who will give to you for nothing.
If you want to receive investment, you naturally have to pay a corresponding price, and the contracts of those top-tier forces are often the most stringent.
...
"Still lost."
Chen Mo, having returned to his exclusive room, took a deep breath, his mind constantly replaying the battle scene from just a moment ago.
"Master, you were already amazing. I saw it before I left; that guy spat out a huge mouthful of blood, pitch black, so scary!"
Yu Mo flew in front of Chen Mo, her little face full of admiration for Chen Mo.
"No need to comfort me; your Master doesn't have such a fragile heart." Chen Mo cupped Yu Mo in his palm and tapped her forehead, teasing her.
However, Chen Mo was actually not as unconcerned as he appeared; the gap between him and White Phoenix was still very large.
Putting aside that divine relics, the two of them were also far apart in terms of Law comprehension.
The threshold for a Third-Tier Divine Art is 10% comprehension, and based on his observations, White Phoenix's comprehension of the Law of Ice should be far beyond 10%.
"Specializing in one Law does indeed accelerate the speed of comprehension, but this is not my Dao!"
After only a moment of distraction, Chen Mo firmed up his inner resolve.
As someone who had been down this road before, he knew very well the difference between specializing in one Law and cultivating multiple Laws simultaneously after becoming a True God.
Not to mention anything else, the power of a fusion divine art is not something a single-Law divine art can compare to.
"However, this White Phoenix is truly strong. In my past Life, I used this divine art to kill many powerful enemies of higher ranks; to think this guy didn't die."
Death, Life, Calamity!
The three major Supreme Laws that Chen Mo cultivated in his past Life.
And this triple-Law fusion divine art was the 'ultimate weapon' he had created the prototype for after the seventh turn of the Demigod stage and only perfected after becoming a True God.
Its name is [Divine Punishment], possessing three advanced forms; the first tier is just the most basic version!
In fact, the first-tier Divine Punishment was already terrifying enough. Although the prototype was still [Withered Bones], after fusing with the Law of Life, it was more persistent and insidious than the original version.
That extremely malicious curse power would act like a maggot attached to bone, constantly devouring the cursed person's Life force and using it as nutrients to accelerate the spread of the curse, repeating in a cycle, making it difficult to eradicate.
It was only because they were in the arena; if it were in reality, an opponent who took [Divine Punishment], as long as the difference in their Realms wasn't too great, was basically sentenced to Death.
"Master, someone added you as a friend, two people actually."
"Who is it!"
Chen Mo looked up in confusion, and upon seeing the IDs of these two, Chen Mo couldn't help but be stunned.
"White Phoenix! Why is it adding me? And this 56, who is this guy? Did I meet them in the arena before?" Chen Mo looked at Yu Mo.
"No, Master. Among everyone you battled in the arena, there is no one with the ID '56'."
Listening to Yu Mo's statement, Chen Mo was even more confused, but after hesitating for a moment, he still clicked accept.
