Chapter 230: Faulty Intel

Chapter 230: Faulty Intel

Across the five great Mine Dungeons, Kamiyu swept her left hand to clear the trash mobs with one move, then raised her right hand to instantly defeat the Boss Creature with another. In total, she used six moves.

The first time she fired the 1080x Super-Phase Energy Cannon, she knew that this shot—capable of piercing through dozens of kilometers—would inevitably draw the attention of enemy Ability Users. So, for each subsequent move, she deliberately held back, reducing the firing time and intentionally delaying the launch to make the hidden enemy Ability Users believe that her Phase Energy Cannon had significant limitations.

After all, in everyone’s ingrained perception, the greater a skill’s power, the more and greater its restrictions. But for Kamiyu, this large-scale destructive skill had no Cooldown Time, consumed no MP, and with her current reserve of hundreds of thousands of Magic Bullets, she could essentially fire continuously from start to finish.

The only thing limiting her was her weapon’s Durability. Fortunately, she now had enough Enhancement Points to repair her Dark Gold Staff. Moreover, when crafting the Dark Gold Staff Chaos Voice, Kamiyu had used a Triple Attributes Recipe, making this staff’s Durability three times that of ordinary Dark Gold Weapons.

Even without the Dark Gold Staff, thanks to her Construction Sage Talent, Kamiyu could continuously produce weapons—breaking one and creating three more, endlessly and perpetually.

To summarize Kamiyu’s state in three words: she was—unstoppable.

Time rewinds to the period when Kamiyu unleashed her six skills.

Crouched on a tree branch, terrified of being discovered, Men San and the others were shocked to find that Kamiyu’s skill power had grown even stronger.

The Fly-Headed Ability User buzzed, “How has this woman grown stronger again? When she fought Bald Tiger before, this lightning energy cannon could only pierce a dozen kilometers. Now it can pierce dozens of kilometers—several times stronger.”

Even from fifty or sixty kilometers away, another Crab-Eyed Ability User still whispered softly, afraid of being detected, “Brother Mensan, how are we supposed to fight this? Even Lord Hungry Ghost Shara, at the fifth tier, might not be able to defeat her.”

The Fly-Headed Ability User chimed in, “Exactly. Even if Lord Hungry Ghost Shara leads an army of three hundred thousand Fruit Ability Users, it would still be useless. It feels like this pink-haired woman would sweep through them all.”

Previously, Hungry Ghost Shara had humiliated Men San, and Men San wanted to replace him. Having dealt with Kamiyu before, Men San knew this pink-haired woman was extremely sneaky and cunning—he never knew when he might fall into her trap or be tricked by her schemes.

Men San thought to himself that this pink-haired woman named Kamiyu probably wasn’t that simple. But to mislead Hungry Ghost Shara and facilitate his replacement, he flexed and said, “What’s there to panic about? As everyone knows, the greater a skill’s power, the greater its limitations. Count the duration of the pink-haired woman’s skills—they don’t even last half a second. When she fought Bald Tiger before, and when she battled Qian Long and Hou Ao, she could sustain it for over six seconds.”

After hearing Men San’s analysis, the two Ability Users with not-so-large brain capacities said in unison, “So that’s how it is.” and “Brother Mensan makes sense.”

“Before I evolved into an Ability User, the cliché web novels I read also said the same thing: the more powerful the Protagonist’s Skill, the greater the consumption and the stronger the Backlash. This exaggerated electric energy cannon must place an enormous load and drain on that pink-haired woman,” said the Crab-Eyed Ability User.

“Exactly. If we report this to Lord Hungry Ghost Shara, we might even be rewarded with Ability Fruits,” Fly-Head buzzed.

“Right, right.”

Unbeknownst to them, Men San, who was secretly scheming, overheard their conversation and was inwardly delighted. If Hungry Ghost Shara underestimated the enemy and was killed, he could take his place, advance to the fifth rank, and become the new Divine Tree guardian.

Thus, the three Ability Users immediately returned to the Fear Emperor Tree Core Zone to “tattle” to Hungry Ghost Shara.

Hungry Ghost Shara was making final preparations for the departure of the 300,000 Fruit Ability Users.

Whether in ancient or modern times, military movements involving over a thousand troops require a command system. However, these Ability Users, with brains no larger than walnuts, were utterly incapable of such organization. Therefore, the Fear Emperor stripped the Fruit Ability Users of their “thinking abilities,” turning them into complete cannon fodder slaves to ease command pressures.

The reason Hungry Ghost Shara had not yet set out, giving Kamiyu time to reinforce the Sanctuary, was precisely because the 300,000 Fruit Ability Users were too cumbersome. Hungry Ghost Shara needed extensive time to input commands into these Fruit Ability Users.

He had to make them perform actions like moving forward, turning left, turning right, attacking, and charging. Otherwise, during the assault, they would pile up and become live targets for Kamiyu and her Artillery Position.

The three Ability Users returned to the training ground and saw hundreds of thousands of slender Fear Emperor Tree Aerial Roots vertically inserted into the heads of the Fruit Ability Users, infusing them with energy and commands like refueling a car.

Men San and the others cautiously approached the leading Hungry Ghost Shara, who had his back to them, busily manipulating the aerial roots to input command orders into the Fruit Ability Users.

Men San’s goal was to make Hungry Ghost Shara underestimate the enemy and suffer a crushing defeat. After a moment’s thought, he said, “Lord Shara, we observed that the pink-haired woman named Kamiyu has taken control of five places called Instance Dungeons.

Moreover, we noticed that the number of Players seems to have increased. Several hundred have arrived in our city.”

Men San deliberately omitted mentioning Kamiyu’s Skill, waiting for the two anxious Ability Users eager to claim credit to speak up.

“Only a few hundred? Look at what’s before your eyes,” Shara said arrogantly, not placing the Invincible Veteran Soldiers in his sight at all.

“Hehe, it’s the Fear Emperor’s Fruit Ability User Army,” said the Crab-Eyed Ability User.

“Oh?” Hungry Ghost Shara uttered a questioning sound.

“What nonsense are you spouting? It’s His Majesty Fear Emperor’s trusted Lord Shara’s army of 300,000 Fruit Ability Users,” Fly-Head clearly knew how to flatter better than Crab-Eye.

“Hmph.” Hungry Ghost Shara indirectly acknowledged this. His expression seemed rather pleased.

Seizing the opportunity to gain a reward, Fly-Head pressed on excitedly, stepping past Men San to say, “Lord Shara, you must be careful. The enemy Kamiyu has become incredibly powerful. A single beam of light-speed radiation can pierce through buildings dozens of kilometers away.”

“So impressive? Is she hiding something else?” Hungry Ghost Shara, after all, was fifth-tier, just a tad smarter than these others.

Fly-Head, carried away by its flattery, excitedly said, “Hiding? She hid the flaws of her Skill, but I’ve recorded them all. Lord Shara, rest assured, this Skill of hers has major limitations—it can only be used for less than half a second, and its Cooldown Time is over five minutes.”

Hungry Ghost Shara said disdainfully, “So that’s how it is. Trash is still trash after all.”

Beside them, Men San hung his head low, inwardly ecstatic. Yes, that’s right—look down on Kamiyu. Soon enough, you’ll get what’s coming to you.
