53: Chapter 53: Bloodthirsty Berserker! A Miraculous Punch That Bridging the Gap!

The real world, one day later.

Inside a private villa in the Starfire Military District.

After Lin Yuan finished meditating, his consciousness descended into the Wasteland Divine Domain.

Deep within the Blood Abyss Sea, two thousand elite Tyrant Demons lay quietly in wait.

Lin Yuan's mental energy swept across their bodies, reaching the soul level.

The exhaustion of the soul left over from thirty-one battles was wiped away.

"The rest is over." Lin Yuan spoke indifferently.

Two thousand Tyrant Demons lifted their heads in unison, their scarlet eyes boiling with fighting spirit.

"Connect to starry sky war chess."

Laws descended, and a sense of weightlessness followed.

Virtual sandbox network.

A mechanical synthesized voice rang in his ears right on time.

[System Prompt: Participant Lin Yuan detected. Matching you now...]

[Match successful! Scene generated: Death Desert.]

The phantom in front of him shattered, and yellow sand filled the air.

Lin Yuan hovered in mid-air, overlooking the sandbox.

Two thousand meters ahead, tens of thousands of heavy infantry formed an extremely tight phalanx.

Shields like a forest, spears like a forest.

In the center of the formation, hundreds of heavy ballistae were tightening their bowstrings.

The opponent was a high school student whose main focus was a conventional cold weapon legion; looking at the formation, he had pushed his understanding of military tactics to the limit.

"All troops, listen! Form the Iron Wall formation! Steady and solid!" The commander on the other side was shouting.

Lin Yuan couldn't even be bothered to look.

"Kill."

The order was given.

Above the battlefield, there wasn't even the sound of wind breaking.

Hundreds of Shadow Abyssal Demons slipped into the shadows on the desert surface.

The desert's scorching sun stretched the shadows of the infantry phalanx, making it the perfect stealth corridor for the Shadow Abyssal Demons.

The next second, at the very rear of the infantry phalanx, dark, long, narrow blades emerged from the shadows of countless soldiers.

There was no roaring, only extremely efficient throat-slitting movements.

Before the opponents could even react, their heads were already spinning into the sky.

At the same time, on the front battlefield, the Titan Violent Demons strode forward, their arms transforming into tower shields, charging into the infantry phalanx while enduring the heavy ballista arrows raining down.

Flesh flew, and steel twisted.

The Titan Violent Demons tore openings directly into the Iron Wall formation.

Wherever they passed, people and horses were overturned.

The battle started fast and ended even faster.

In less than thirty seconds, the conventional infantry phalanx of tens of thousands was completely wiped out.

[Battle victory! Win rate 100%. Your ranking has risen to 800th on the provincial rising star rankings!]

Before the opponent could even say anything harsh, he turned into white light and was kicked out of the sandbox.

Lin Yuan was expressionless: "Continue matching."

The slaughter began again.

[Match successful! Scene generated: Lava Volcano.]

The opponent was an army of mages focusing on fire magic.

As fire rain fell from the sky, the Titan Violent Demons, relying on the extremely high magic resistance of their living liquid metal, charged straight through the fireballs.

The Shadow Abyssal Demons cut off the mages' retreat, killing one with every strike.

[Match successful! Scene generated: Misty Forest.]

The opponent was a plant-type deity who commanded various poisonous vines.

Relying on their Super-speed Toxin Metabolism, the Titan Violent Demons absorbed the toxins like energy drinks.

The Tyrant smashed the opponent's Gold-tier man-eating flower with a single punch.

[Match successful! Scene generated: Frost Canyon.]

Victory! Fifty consecutive wins!

In this pool of high school seniors, no high school student could withstand this kind of dual-line coordination and the metamorphic, omnidirectional crushing power.

The points on the provincial rising star rankings showed a soaring curve.

1500th, 800th, 300th, 150th...

On the Star Net forum outside the virtual sandbox, many high school students who frequented the provincial channel had noticed this perverted ID named Lin Yuan.

Behind his winning streak record always hung a glaring 100%.

"What kind of unit does this guy use? All instant-kill games."

"How did Jiangcheng produce such a monster again?"

"Is he hacking? Is the starry sky war chess system buggy?"

Lin Yuan blocked all external interference, with nothing but endless battle in his eyes.

"Bang!"

As the Tyrant tore the opponent's last Gold-peak Dragon-blooded Beast in half, the void scene froze.

The system prompt sound became high-pitched.

[Battle ended! Current win rate: 100%.]

[Lin's ranking has soared to: 68th on the provincial rising star rankings!]

[Ding! Detected that you have entered the top 100 in the province.]

[100 million faith points and a random Gold-tier resource blind box have been issued, please check.]

Lin Yuan looked at the resources that had arrived and couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.

The threshold of the top 100 had been crossed.

"My state is still good; I'll push to get into the top fifty in one go tonight."

Lin Yuan estimated the mental load of the Tyrant Demons and pressed the button to continue matching.

[Matching you now...]

[Warning! Warning!]

The starry sky war chess interface suddenly lit up with red light.

The original mechanical synthesized voice now carried obvious electronic static.

[Matched with an extremely high-danger coefficient opponent!]

[The opponent is using a high-privilege card and has hidden their ID!]

[Scene generated: Starry Sky Wreckage!]

Lin Yuan frowned.

The surrounding environment was reshaped.

He found himself standing on a floating meteorite.

All around was the vast, boundless deep space of the universe, with the wreckage of countless warships and planets drifting in space.

Lin Yuan looked up.

On another meteorite in the starry sky directly in front of him, there was no massive army, nor was there a heavy firepower position.

There were only ten figures.

Ten humanoid creatures hovered in mid-air.

They wore silver full-body battle armor, with profound star array patterns flowing on the surface of the armor.

Each person held a non-corporeal lightsaber in their hand.

Lin Yuan swept them with his mental energy, and his eyes instantly narrowed.

Platinum tier.

All of them were at the peak of the Platinum tier!

Not only that, he could sense that the silver battle armor on the ten people and the lightsabers in their hands emitted energy fluctuations that were extremely restrained yet extremely lethal.

Transcendent-tier equipment!

"Holy shit."

Even though Lin Yuan was usually calm, he couldn't help but curse at this moment.

Ten Platinum-peak believers? And all of them equipped with Transcendent-tier gear?

How the hell is this the foundation a high school student can have?

This must be some old monster who has nothing better to do, opening a smurf account or using special means to mix into the provincial rising star rankings to smurf.

The opponent didn't give Lin Yuan time to think much.

On the meteorite, those ten figures moved.

Three of them just casually raised the lightsabers in their hands and swung them through the air toward the meteorite where Lin Yuan was located.

"Boom!"

Three brilliant sword lights, each a thousand feet long, swept across the starry sky.

The stellar wreckage along the way was annihilated under the sword light.

The speed was too fast.

The two thousand elite Tyrant Demons beneath Lin Yuan could not make any defensive moves, nor could they slip into the shadows.

The sword light swept past.

There was no flying flesh, and no screaming.

The two thousand Silver-tier nine-star Tyrant Demons, possessing living liquid metal armor, were instantly vaporized along with the giant meteorite beneath their feet under the slash of the Transcendent-tier lightsabers!

They turned to dust.

The number on the battle damage panel went from two thousand to zero in one second.

It was an absolute numerical crush, a gap that could not be bridged by operation and mechanics.

Lin Yuan's expression darkened, his finger hovering over the "Surrender" button on the system interface.

It was impossible to fight.

The opponent was clearly a cheater here to clear the board.

Staying here would only mean enduring the pain of soul tearing for nothing.

Just as he was about to press the button, a roar that shook the starry sky came from the pulverized meteorite dust below.

"Roar—!"

A figure burning with dark black flames, forcefully resisting the remaining sword energy storm, stood straight up from the dust.

It was the Tyrant!

Most of its armor had been shaved off, and there was a terrifying sword scar on its chest that was deep enough to see bone.

Dark golden divine fire burned at the wound, preventing the erosion of the Transcendent sword energy.

Its Gold-tier five-star foundation, combined with its metamorphic physique from dual-line evolution, allowed it to hard-tank a basic attack from a Platinum-peak opponent.

The Tyrant did not retreat half a step.

It lifted its hideous head, staring fixedly at the ten high-and-mighty figures in the starry sky.

From the Tyrant's soul fire, Lin Yuan felt an extremely pure desire and fanaticism.

It felt no fear; it was excited.

Lin Yuan's finger stopped in mid-air.

He remembered the assessment in the Shattered Continent of the Abyss.

Even though the Tyrant was only Silver-tier, it dared to let out a provocative low roar at the Gold-tier lord in the depths.

This monster had been invincible in his Wasteland Divine Domain for too long.

Every day, apart from tearing apart its own kind, it couldn't find a single opponent that could make it go all out.

For the Tyrant, dying in battle was not terrible; giving up in frustration was unforgivable.

"You want to fight?" Lin Yuan's voice was calm.

The Tyrant looked up and let out a roar, the liquid metal on its right arm surging.

It transformed into a heavy gauntlet covered in barbs, smashing a meteorite in front of it to pieces.

"Good." Lin Yuan withdrew his hand, crossed his arms, and his eyes became sharp.

"Then go and die gloriously."

Since being invincible is too lonely, then I will fulfill your wish.

Having received the God Lord's tacit permission, the Tyrant completely unlocked all shackles.

Its body twisted in an instant, merging directly into the darkness of the starry sky background.

On the other end of the starry sky, among the ten Platinum warriors, the one standing at the very front tilted his head slightly.

"Interesting. A mere Gold-tier, actually able to forcibly hide under our lock-on."

A cold, mechanical voice came from under the helmet.

He raised his left hand and gripped lightly toward the void of the starry sky on his left.

"Bang!"

Space collapsed.

The Tyrant's body was forcibly squeezed out of the shadows by an irresistible force.

Before the Tyrant could stand firm, a silver stream of light crossed thousands of meters and pierced directly through its head.

Half of its head exploded.

For any other life form, this would already be a fatal wound.

But the Tyrant did not fall.

[Divine Fire Undying Body] ran frantically!

At the incomplete neck, liquid metal mixed with dark black flesh wriggled.

In just half a second, a brand new, even more hideous head grew back.

The moment the head grew back, the Tyrant did not defend; instead, taking advantage of the pause in the opponent's attack, its body lunged forward violently.

The ten-meter-tall heavy armored demon god slammed directly into the Platinum warrior's protective aura.

The Tyrant raised its right fist covered in barbs.

This punch gathered all the compressed energy within its body, and the muscles on its arm even burst because they couldn't withstand this force.

[Shattering Shock Fist]!

Not only targeting the physical body, it also carried true damage that tore at the soul.

"Boom!"

The violent fist wind slammed fiercely into the Platinum warrior's chest.

On the silver Transcendent battle armor, star array patterns flickered, offsetting the vast majority of the physical impact.

But that trace of shattering shock force targeting the soul penetrated through the armor.

This high-and-mighty Platinum-peak warrior's body shook, and he was actually knocked back half a step by this punch!

The starry sky fell into a brief silence.

The auras of the nine Platinum warriors behind flickered simultaneously.

A Gold-tier, knocking back a fully armed Platinum-peak half a step!

Although it didn't break the defense, this was already a miracle crossing the chasm.

"Well done." Lin Yuan praised coldly in mid-air.

The Platinum warrior who had been knocked back stabilized his figure, the gaze under his helmet becoming extremely cold.

Being knocked back by a low-tier creature was a humiliation.

"Erase."

There was no more probing.

The ten Platinum warriors simultaneously raised their lightsabers.

Ten sword qi beams that pierced the galaxy intertwined into an airtight death net, enveloping the Tyrant.

The Tyrant stood in place, roaring wildly at the sky.

It did not dodge, but instead opened its arms, letting the heaven-destroying sword net cut it apart.

"Sss-sss-sss-sss—"

The divine fire extinguished, and the liquid metal vaporized.

The Tyrant's body was slashed into the finest particles, completely dissipating in the starry sky.

Until its death, it did not retreat a single step.

The starry sky returned to silence.

The system's red light lit up, and the mechanical voice followed.

[Battle failed.]

[Current win rate: 98%.]

[Your provincial rising star rankings: 73rd.]
