Chapter 375: Old Traces, the Emperor Returns [4k]

Merging the double helix tree is a long and tedious process.

The reason why Eselon was able to merge so quickly was because he had been refining the double helix tree for many years before he officially started.

Fortunately, with the help of Ai Lijie and the [Double Helix Tree Fusion Experience Guide], Bai Fu successfully established a connection with the Double Helix Tree in less than two days.

[Current fusion progress 1.27%]

Looking at the numbers appearing in front of her, Bai Fu couldn’t help but reveal a happy smile on her face.

Finally it’s done!
She clicked on the new status that appeared behind her name after merging with the double helix tree.

【World Projection·Virtual Realm】

This state is the bonus that the double helix tree brings to her.

Since the current fusion progress is still very low, the bonus is not exaggerated at this stage, but even so, its effect far exceeds Bai Fu’s initial estimate.

[World Projection·Virtual Realm] now has three bonuses, namely:

1. Attribute bonus – Under the effect of the double helix tree, the communication between Bai Fu and the virtual world has reached a new level. It is no longer limited to adaptation, but has become [trying to control]. This allows her to gain additional attribute bonuses, with an additional +1.27% for all attributes. The bonus ratio will increase with the progress of the fusion of the double helix tree.

2. Life Supply – Communication with the double helix tree allows Bai Fu to borrow the power of the double helix tree. At this stage, due to the low progress of fusion, she can only use the most basic life-extending and blood-recovering abilities and health bonuses.

The health bonus is also 1.27%. After the health is emptied, the double helix tree will automatically start and quickly restore her health, but at this stage it will only restore half of her health.

Although it is not a lot, it is still impressive. After all, there will be more in the future.

3. Shadow Hand-This is a special skill, similar to Eselon’s skill of manipulating branches and roots to fight, but there are some differences.

First of all, what Bai Fu manipulated was not branches and roots, but the “shadow” formed by the gathering of dark energy.

Secondly, the shadows controlled by Bai Fu can become “invisible” and hide in the virtual space overlapping with the main space, thus avoiding enemy detection. They will wait until the shadow coverage is large enough, or sneak into a special area before suddenly popping up to launch an attack.

In terms of skill effects, the ability mastered by Bai Fu is much stronger than the one mastered by Eselon.

Both are fused double helix trees. Bai Fu speculated that there might be two reasons for such a deviation between the two.

First, she is an apostle, and her racial potential score reaches 100, which makes her far more compatible with the double helix tree than Eselon.

Secondly, when she merged with the double helix tree, she had guidance from many parties and the game progress bar was corrected, so there would not be any deviation. However, Esseron could only explore slowly on his own, and it was difficult to fully develop the potential of the double helix tree.

The most obvious manifestation of this is that after Eselon merged with the double helix tree, she became a tree person, while her body did not change at all after she merged with the double helix tree. Not to mention her appearance changed drastically, even her bust size did not change by even a millimeter.

Bai Fu continued to read the detailed description of the [World Projection·Virtual Realm] state.

There was also a note on the last line, telling her that increasing the fusion progress to 15% would unlock new bonus effects.

“According to the current fusion speed, it will probably take about 15 days to increase the progress to %. It’s not too long.”

Bai Fu stretched.

Now that the matter was over, she had nothing urgent to do for the time being.

She planned to meet with Litt and the Anti-Apostle Holy City Alliance first to discuss future courses of action with them, and by the way, temporarily hand over the players of the Silent Courtyard camp to them for management, and let them lead the players to gain some experience.

Only by feeding the players can the players feed her in return.

In version 3.1, the player level cap was raised to level 110.

This is a very critical version. Level 110 happens to be the pinnacle of the S+ rank, and the next level is the Disaster Level.

Players will definitely spend a lot on version 3.1 to prepare for the next version to reach the disaster level as soon as possible.

Seizing this opportunity, Bai Fu could cut a large piece of meat from the player.

Although she could gain a lot of experience every time she completed a task, it was still far from enough to satisfy her.

no way.

Who made her in the most hungry stage now?

In order to eliminate the [Life Chasm] state, she had to practice a few more professions, and the experience required to practice other professions was much more than the first profession.

“us……”

Bai Fu was just about to ask Ailijie, Yulia and others to leave when a call suddenly sounded from deep in her soul.

“Oh no, Master, something terrible has happened!”

The caller comes from the ancestral star.

According to him, both Zuyuan Star and the Supernatural Garden were attacked. Although the Supernatural Garden had an automatic defense system and Zuyuan Star had undergone a lot of modifications, the situation was still precarious because several people came from the opposite side at once.

“We can’t see their faces clearly, but their strength is very terrifying. They are definitely super-powered people of the super-level!”

“?”

Bai Fu was full of questions.

Who is so arrogant that he dares to attack her base camp?

Are they the remnants of the Supreme God Etheron, or are the people who signed the original agreement unable to resist and take action?
“I will be right back!”

Bai Fu immediately boarded the mobile palace that had been transformed by dark energy and flew back with Yulia and others.

At the same time, she used the will of the apostle to let her will descend upon a true spirit summoned creature on the Zuyuan Star.

“I want to see who it is…wait.”

Bai Fu’s pupils suddenly shrank.

There was no need to investigate further because she saw the Destiny Sphere rotating outside the sky.

It’s the original agreement!
After learning that she had killed the Supreme God, the leader couldn’t sit still. He didn’t give her any chance to breathe.

The original agreement was mysterious and its members were extremely powerful, but she was no pushover.

The virtual dimension is coming!

Once the skill was activated, the Zuyuan Star and the Supernatural Garden were all covered.

The next moment, endless true spirit summons were born from Bai Fu’s mind, and then descended into this not-so-wide cosmic battlefield.

They formed into a huge array and rushed towards the enemies who were constantly attacking outside the sky.

“It’s the Court Master who’s back!”

The people on Zuyuan Star cheered.

“Don’t worry, they can’t get in with me here.”

Bai Fu calmed everyone down with a calm expression.

She was doing two things at once, controlling the psychic legion while urgently contacting the three major cosmic civilizations.

Of course, she couldn’t just do it alone to deal with the initial agreement.

“what?”

The three cosmic civilizations that received the news were all shocked.

At this time, they were attacking the Holy City of Apostles with all their might, and a large number of troops were sent to the depths of the starry sky billions of light years away.

Even so, they couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.

Anyone with a discerning eye knew that if something happened to Bai Fu, they would be unable to deal with the original agreement.

Nothing must happen to Bai Fu.

At least they must not die before they have completely digested the Holy City of Apostles.

“I’ll send Thunder Blade and the others to support us right away!”

“We will have Goruga and the others bring the Eckhard Gun here. It will only take half a day at most!”

Titan Industries and Supernova Corps responded one after another, but the Reborn Empire was in a bit of a dilemma.

The three pillars of the empire, Annihilation Dmitri is in seclusion recuperating from his injuries, Chongxiao is fighting on the front line, and the remaining governor of the Great Wall is unable to get away. If he leaves, what if the original agreement suddenly attacks the empire?
After discussing for a long time, the Reborn Empire finally sent out a reserve army led by the Lord of Vortex. At the same time, they spent a lot of effort to contact the Lord of Curse Olson and let Olson go to Zuyuan Star for support on their behalf.

“Very good, the situation is ready. Now it depends on whether the initial agreement is just a test or whether we are really going to launch a general attack!”

Bai Fu attacked with all her strength, not giving those who attacked Zuyuan Star any chance to breathe.

Now is not the time to hide my weaknesses. Only by showing myself as much as possible and making the initial agreement as painful as possible can I buy myself more time to integrate the double helix tree.

Under her all-out attack, the few supernatural powers that had initially agreed upon quickly fell into a disadvantage.

No.

It’s not just about being at a disadvantage.

Surrounded by the psionic army, they were beaten so badly that they almost lost their direction.

“If this continues, we will die here!”

The tiger-headed man’s face looked extremely ugly, and the painter who stood back to back with him to resist the attack of the psychic legion was even more ugly.

Thinking back to when they first met, Bai Fu was not even as good as a single hair of hers. But not long after, the situation was reversed and she was not even as good as a single hair of Bai Fu.

孽 孽!
“Hurry up and ask the leader for help. If there is no reinforcement, then we can only retreat!”

The news soon reached the leader’s ears.

“What? Just the arrival of the will can overwhelm you in such a short time and force you to ask for help?”

The usually calm leader was a little numb this time.

Is it a little too late for everything? Shouldn’t he have agreed to the previous cooperation with Bai Fu?

At this point, there is no point in regretting.

He actually considered telling Bai Fu the truth, negotiating with Bai Fu, and asking Bai Fu to voluntarily give up the path to becoming a god, but in the end he gave up.

Will Bai Fu agree?

Even if they agree, is it out of sincerity or just a delaying tactic?
Even if Bai Fu really agreed, wouldn’t she regret it later?
The most important point is that he appeased Bai Fu today, but what should he do if a Hong Fu, Cheng Fu, or Cai Fu appears later?
Everyone was comforted once, and as they were comforted, the number of strong people would reach the limit that would trigger the arrival of the Reaper.

Therefore, the most permanent method is to kill.

Kill Bai Fu.

Kill all people like Bai Fu.

Then, establish a brand new cosmic social order with absolute strength.

Under this new order, the overall combat power of the entire universe will be maintained below a safety line, and anyone who attempts to challenge the safety line will be punished. At the very least, their strength will be abolished, and at the worst, they will be directly executed.

Although this may be a bit unreasonable, it can ensure that the reapers will never come and civilization will continue forever.

After all, is becoming a god really that important?

The leader doesn’t think so.

In his opinion, the continuation of civilization is the most important thing, even if it means living in the sewers like rats.

“I will let the Fate Weaver activate the Old Marks. You just need to hold on for a few more minutes.”

The Mark of the Old Ones is a long-distance teleportation item, and its transmission distance is much farther than the Apostle-level dark energy engine of the Apostle Holy City.

When we fought against the Holy City of Apostles before, the initial agreement used the Marks of the Old Ones.

Unlike the Fated Orbs which can be manufactured repeatedly, the Scratches of the Ancients are gone once one is used.

But now, in order to kill Bai Fu, the leader is too lazy to save it and will use it when necessary.

A few minutes later, more transcendences of the original agreement descended upon the vicinity of Zuyuan Star through the old markings.

Relying on the stacking of numbers, they finally withstood the psychic army controlled by Bai Fu’s will.

“It looks like this group of people are determined to fight me to the death. Let’s see who has the tougher head!”

Bai Fu curled her lips and kept speeding up to rush back.

……

at the same time.

Rebirth of the Empire.

Odoacer was restless in his chamber.

Suddenly, light appeared.

“Lord Annihilation just left the mansion secretly. His destination is the secondary space. It seems that he is still puzzled by the loss of the Supreme Holy Relic and wants to get to the bottom of it.”

Odoacer stroked his forehead, looking helpless.

This matter is really difficult for him to handle.

Stop it directly?
Wouldn’t that tell Dmitri that this matter was related to him?

After that Dmitri asked him why he did it and how he could explain it?

That’s all.

Let’s ask first.

Seeing that he was about to ask questions, Guanghui left very considerately.

Soon, Odoak headed straight for the secondary space with the reply he received.

The moment he saw him, Dmitri was startled.

He acted extremely secretly and had no idea that he would meet Odoacer here.

“His Majesty……”

Odoacer: “Dmitri, stop investigating.”

As he expected, Dmitri’s eyes widened immediately. “Your Majesty, what do you mean? Could it be that… this matter has something to do with you?”

Odoacer: “I was indeed the one who took those relics.”

Dmitri’s heart sank.

He totally didn’t understand why Odoacer did this. With Odoacer’s strength, he had no use for those holy relics.

Deliberately holding back the empire?
Could it be that Odoacer, as the emperor, had secretly surrendered to the Holy City of the Apostles before?

Odoacer explained: “I took those holy relics on the orders of the greatest emperor in the history of the empire!”

The greatest emperor?
Isn’t that Emperor Ignatius?

Dmitri was stunned: “Hasn’t Emperor Ignatius been dead for many years?”

Odoac shook his head: “I thought so at first, but he came back.”

“Where is he?” Dmitri asked quickly.

“The leader of the Initial Agreement, his true identity is Emperor Ignaz the Great. Haven’t you always been curious about why there are so many Initial Agreement spies in the empire? Even Slick, the last generation heir of the Glorious Family, has defected to the Initial Agreement? This is the reason, Dmitri. I only learned this secret not long ago.”

Odoacer looked at Dmitri.

At this moment, Dmitri felt like he was struck by lightning.

He stood there quietly for a long time, still unable to utter a word.
