Chapter 1229: Chapter 1229
1229: Chapter 1215: War Hunt 1229: Chapter 1215: War Hunt The world of professionals can sometimes be exceptionally real and cruel.
Even within the middle tier (fourth to sixth), the gap in strength can be as vast as the heavens and the earth.
“This is a fifth-tier Soldier?
Known as the worst Battle-profession?”
“I even doubt whether I chose the right path when I first decided on this career.”
At this moment, when the “youngsters” saw the strength displayed by Lu Ping’an, it was almost ludicrous.
But this is reality, when professionals reach a certain level, even those of the same tier can vary greatly.
“No wonder I’ve heard many senior brothers and senior sisters say that Battleprofessions are just tools, and newcomers should plan ahead, preparing for a career that includes other professions…”
Judging solely on individual combat power, the Soldier’s “Battlefield Intuition” without substantial panel enhancements, combined with the lousy “All Weapon Specialization” bonus indeed makes it the worst of the Battle-professions…
While others have two matching Professional Skills resulting in a synergy where one plus one is greater than three, the Soldier is zero plus 0.5, barely adding up to one—a complete failure as a Battle-profession.
The two main advancement directions of battlefield troublemakers also mainly revolve around the survival capabilities of “Battlefield Intuition,” known as small but resilient entities and creators of chaos, with low practical combat abilities, whereas the direction of a Battlefield Commander…
“…this profession is special, from the moment I declare war and arrange the battlefield, all the forces under my command become chess pieces…”
In a war, there can only be one Battlefield Commander.
Once Lu Ping’an’s “Battlefield” trait is activated, he is no longer just an individual…
his power is his legion, and this is a deathmatch between teams.
Middle-High Tier Soldiers are indeed unqualified as Battle-professions, instead, they are a series of “War Components,” a platform serving the purpose of war.
How strong they are not only depends on the legion under their command but also what other factors are within the “Soldier.”
“This profession is rather special, first, its strength is directly linked to the strength of Life Series Professions, and also, it is not a ‘normal’ profession…”
Among Middle-High Tier non-combat professions, evident signs of fusion have already appeared.
Many professions are a combination of two or even several paths fused together.
At this stage, the once trickling streams have begun to converge into rivers, and their strength starts surpassing that of the single-threaded pure combat professions.
This “Silver Contrarian” is no exception, its essential component being the third-tier “Black Knight (Black Holy Grail Holder),” with a strength that seems to introduce modules from the Life system (Beast Taming, Healer), and its actual power is directly linked to the strength of the Life system.
In the hands of high-level Healers and Beast Tamers, it has an extremely high limit.
Although Lu Ping’an doesn’t have a deep foundation in this area, with the Life Encyclopedia and Life Courtyard, his basic abilities, passive traits of the Life system, and strength of Life Series Professions Skills are far superior to normal fifth-sixth tier Beast Tamers/Healers.
If we really evaluate his strength…
he has a solidly Rule-level panel of Life Series Professions, and this “Soldier’s” Profession Module simply becomes a means for him to output Life system combat power, naturally far surpassing his actual level.
“So, it’s an Evil god profession…”
And to these “newbies,” a profession exclusive to Evil Gods is somehow easier to understand.
Since it’s an Evil God profession, then it must be mind-blowingly powerful…
that might be the usual thought process for ordinary professionals when it comes to those Evil God professions.
But in Lu Ping’an’s understanding, its strength exceeding ordinary professions is often because they include the Evil God’s “personal goods”…
a lower-level rule of Life Fusion, Chris’s strength, and also Reincarnation and reconstruction…”
Lu Ping’an vaguely sensed that if it weren’t for his possession of the Divine Foundation of Big Cat, he probably couldn’t have mastered this “Life Remodeling Module” so effortlessly…
Abilities involving the reconstruction of life, particularly those with the capacity for “custom-made” control, are unlikely to be below Rule level.
High-risk high-reward, since he dares to cross the line, what he presents to the world is sufficient comprehensive capability.
The powerful “Life Energy Expertise” and “Creation power (Life Encyclopedia)” ultimately form the cycle of the life battlefield.
“It has only swallowed a part of the Authority, but it’s merely a beast, how could it possibly digest…”
Lu Ping’an doesn’t even think that thing is still alive, it’s just a “beast” driven by Authority.
Considering its reaction…
it’s imbued with almost endless malice and hostility.
Lu Ping’an doesn’t believe that the way it instantly burst forth troops and drove those Newborn demons to attack the local village is within the instincts of a Spider Monkey.
Lu Ping’an did not choose to confront it head-on; he knew that would be a loss-making move… The living need not clash with a mechanism or the world’s “rules” to the death, for that’s a kind of “bravery” akin to banging one’s head against a pillar.
“Its strength cannot be calculated… Maybe, it cannot even be described as alive.
It’s more like a ‘rule (World’s Reason)’ that has invaded an organism,”
And the development of the situation proved his choice to be right.
It was like an unfathomable sea, who knows how high its upper limit was…
For a full three days, Lu Ping’an replenished several wolf packs’ “life price difference,” continued to operate the cycle of life and death, letting it linger in frenzy and fury.
It attempted to evolve, to compensate for its deficiencies…
More and more flesh was devoured by it, but under Lu Ping’an’s control, it “dissolved,” relying solely on the replenishment of life quality, it could not possibly sustain this terrible body.
It still forcibly drove its own “body,” but once the “source” was stolen, even if energy remained, its physical body (vessel) had already reached its limit.
When that massive body showed cracks everywhere, everyone knew the end had come.
Simultaneously, the eyes of those monsters began to close…
Even the withered tentacles started to droop, as if it had reached its end.
Those piles of flesh slimes, which had undergone reincarnation countless times, pounced once again.
Eroding, assimilating, tearing, invading, their methods of attack were lowly and inefficient, but against flesh creations of the same origin, erosion was tantamount to a deadly special effect.
But now, even facing a “monster” that had started to fall, the effects of erosion and assimilation were still extremely poor…
“At least the erosion is no longer just on the surface, it seems to be quite effective…”
Lu Ping’an saw progress, yet he stopped other companions who tried to approach.
My war domain has not yet ended.”
This thing can play dead?”
“Seems like it, but since even beasts have started playing dead, true death can’t be far off.”
In the face of a professional’s “rule traits,” Lu Ping’an, who hadn’t received combat feedback, naturally knew his sole opponent was not yet completely dead.
He was still quietly advancing the cycle of war…
Even though the beast swarm had already lost tens of millions of wolves, he continued to relentlessly “spend money.”
Finally, after half an hour, that mass of flesh blanketed by flesh slimes let out screams and roars once more.
All who approached were crushed, but its skin was already smeared with “flesh beasts”…
Although their erosive trait could not combat this kind of monster, after such a protracted bitter struggle and contact, it still smeared over its surface layer.
Now the entire monster seemed as if it were coated in a layer of flesh “skin.”
It persisted, running about wildly, trying to find its “enemy,” it even once tried to throw itself into the sea…
But clearly, it did not possess the necessary genes and could not adapt to such an environment, and after making a round in the sea, it climbed back out.
Perhaps it held supreme authority, but clearly, only a part of it, it could not be omnipotent.
It was still alive, from noon until evening, turning the whole island into chaos, and finally, when the stars returned to their places…
The monster finally collapsed, unable to move anymore.
And this time, Lu Ping’an received the response he had long awaited.
[A magnificently brilliant victory…
a desperate battle of strength, a glorious victory of the weak over the strong!]
