125: Chapter 125 Stealing the BOSS!

[Ding! Talent [Hand of Heaven Stealing] activated successfully. You have stolen: [Dragon Graveyard Entry Ticket]!]

A soul-piercing success in one shot!

The moment he got his hands on it, Su Chen felt as if his heart skipped a beat.

Although the active theft of [Hand of Heaven Stealing] was extremely secretive and silent, the fact that his opponent was an existence that could easily crush him meant that this intense feeling of 'plucking food from a tiger's mouth' made him subconsciously urge Xiao Zi to accelerate their withdrawal.

“Xiao Zi, full speed, get us out of here!”

He didn't even bother to hide his tracks, directly mounting the Amethyst Thunder-Flame Dragon and charging into the distance.

That entry ticket was no ordinary object.

The Dragon Graveyard was the final resting place of the Dragon Clan, where countless fallen legends, sub-gods, and even mythic dragons were buried.

It wasn't just a massive warehouse of high-level materials; it also hid Dragon Soul inheritances that would make countless people green with envy.

On that wretched old man's shelf, the price tag for this ticket was a full 99.9 billion gold coins!

With a 'cost' of only 1.1 billion, he had forcibly plucked the most precious treasure from this mythic-grade merchant.

Given such a disparity in strength, Su Chen had no choice but to retreat.

For the rest of the day, Su Chen rode the dragon, wandering through the wastelands of the God-Forsaken Land.

Although he didn't stumble upon any more world-shaking treasures, after harvesting the lives of countless monsters, his experience bar finally filled up, and his level smoothly crossed into the Level 80 threshold.

At the same time, his talent skill finished its cooldown, and all the preliminary preparations were in place.

[Ding! Talent [Hand of Heaven Stealing] activated successfully. You have stolen: [God-level Adaptation]!]

With this notification, Su Chen's long-planned 'God-Level Bait and Switch' plan was successfully completed.

He couldn't wait to open his backpack and begin a feast of equipment swapping that could be described as a complete transformation:

• [refresh ring] (Tier 1 Mythic)

• [Blazing Amethyst Legguards] (Sub-God Grade)

• [Blazing Amethyst Belt] (Sub-God Grade)

• [gold-eaters breastplate] (legendary-grade)

• [Gold-Eating Helmet] (legendary-grade)

As the five pieces of top-tier equipment were donned, Su Chen was now covered in the holy light of legendary-grade or higher gear from head to toe, save for a few accessories.

Under the resonance of various heaven-defying enhancement talents, his attribute panel underwent a qualitative change sufficient to suffocate gods and demons:

[Personal Panel]

Level: Lv80 | Class: God Slayer

Strength: 2.14m | Constitution: 1.78m

Agility: 1.90m | Spirit: 1.02m

With the support of a series of affixes, his basic three stats had skyrocketed by millions! Especially his Strength attribute—under the exaggerated 500% boost of [Innate Divine Strength], it directly crossed the 2 million mark, completely surpassing a Level 100 Sub-God BOSS in terms of raw numerical value.

What did such a panel mean? It meant that even without activating enhancement skills, Su Chen's current basic attacks were enough to make a monster of the Amethyst Giant Beast's level die with regret within ten seconds.

Just as Su Chen was about to close the panel, he suddenly stared at the artifact ring in his hand, and a flash of inspiration struck his mind.

[Super Refresh] — Activate!

Target: Talent Skill [Hand of Heaven Stealing]!

Under Su Chen's bated breath and focused gaze, the talent skill's icon actually lit up instantly, and the cooldown was completely cleared!

“It worked!”

Su Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The value of this mythic ring was elevated once again at this moment. This meant his stealing authority would no longer be limited by long waits; he had truly entered the era of 'Infinite Freeloading'!

Thus, amidst a dazzling display of skill light effects, Su Chen began a frenzy of 'Skill Solidification':

[Super Refresh] paired with [Hand of Heaven Stealing]!

In the blink of an eye, the Resurrection from the Rebirth Badge, the invincibility from the Divine Protection Scroll... these effects that originally relied on consumables were all permanently engraved into his skill bar by him.

Of course, a price still existed.

The scrolls that would have disappeared now required the sacrifice of a treasure or scroll of the same level as a catalyst.

“In the future, I'll have to carry a bag of trash legendary gear and junk scrolls as 'casting materials'.” Su Chen rubbed his chin, his eyes full of the playful look of the nouveau riche.

Just as Xiao Zi soared over a patch of ruins, an anomaly below caught Su Chen's attention.

Rumble—!

Where the dust settled, a hundred-meter-long [Storm Black Python · legendary-grade · Level 135] was at its wit's end, its health bar at less than 2%.

Its opponent was a warrior wearing a ferocious demon mask and crimson armor, wielding a tachi in a frenzy of slashes.

Most glaringly, a Level 2 deep-red name representing extreme evil floated above that person's head.

[Name]: Umekawa Naiku (Level 160 / Oni Warrior)

[Attributes]: Strength 400k / Constitution 380k / Agility 310k

[Talent]: Way of the Samurai (S-rank)

An eighth awakening peak Japanese samurai.

Although his attributes were not even as good as those of his top-tier beauties, in the current God-Forsaken Land, a level of 160 was enough for him to hunt without restraint.

Su Chen licked his lips, killing intent overflowing in his eyes.

In this dog-eat-dog land of exile, he never claimed to be a good person, and stealing a BOSS carried no psychological burden whatsoever.

Moreover, killing a blood-stained red-named bastard was not just a Sleight of Hand, but also acting on behalf of heaven.

“Dragon Breath coverage!”

Thunder and purple flames led the way as Su Chen's figure moved like lightning, diving down from high altitude.

[Blink Thrust]!

[Flash Stab]!

Space folded continuously.

Under Umekawa Naiku's startled and furious gaze, Su Chen instantly crossed a thousand meters, the flame of joy in his hand carrying a power that could annihilate everything as it slammed down ruthlessly into the python's head!
