Patreon.com/ThatGreatStuff ****** The smile on Phantylia's face had vanished completely. She couldn't shake the feeling that something about her script seemed off! She had meticulously orchestrated so much chaos aboard the Xianzhou, immersing herself within their world. Although she successfully acquired this beautiful and powerful body, the adversaries confronting her now... They were not Luofu's cloud riders. Instead, it was a group of individuals who seemed rather peculiar! These few people emanated an immense sense of threat to her! Suddenly, another batch of newcomers entered! Phantylia clenched her fists tightly, inadvertently crushing nearby root tendrils. In total, seven individuals had intruded! What did they think this place was—a farmer's market?! However, these seven were no ordinary beings. Three hailed from the Astral Express, two were Stellaron Hunters, one was a Brave Guard from Luofu, and the last was a blue-eyed, blonde-haired man. Despite their sizable group, they showed no intention of joining the battle immediately. Instead, they stood at a distance, observing like spectators ready for a show—just missing popcorn and beer in hand. March 7th first scanned the surroundings before excitedly waving at Dan Heng. "Dan Heng, we're here to cheer you on! I specially downloaded the full version of 'Water Dragon's Lament' from Feathered Spirit!" she exclaimed. With that, March 7th played the song, cranking up the volume to its maximum. "Go ahead, don't hold back!" "With your background music playing, nobody can defeat you!" Dan Heng remained silent. Jing Yuan tilted his head, seriously suspecting that March 7th and Stelle had come here solely to cause chaos. This was a battle against the Extinction Army—Emanator-level combat! One misstep could lead to widespread devastation, with lives at stake and earth shattering beneath their feet. "Can you two please stop this..." Jing Yuan said helplessly. Instead of heeding his words, Stelle eagerly took a step forward, exclaiming, "Don't worry, General!" "I have the 'World as Chessboard' soundtrack too!" "You also deserve your own theme music!" "It'll guarantee victory!" "...," Jing Yuan was speechless. Suddenly, both Stelle and March 7th's devices fell silent. On their screens appeared Silver Wolf's graffiti emoji indicating "[Program Not Responding]." With a disdainful expression, Silver Wolf chided, "We're facing the final boss now, yet you two are acting like immature kids!" "Indeed, if I may say..." Silver Wolf continued, "...the boss should undoubtedly have her own signature background music! How else can we heighten the tension and excitement of the battle?" Silver Wolf swiftly took action, slicing out segments of the background music from Little Gui's live stream, compiling them, and copying... all in one fluid motion! Then, Phantylia's exclusive theme song, "Cicada's Song," began playing at the scene. The haunting melody evoked a sense of being immersed in a perilous environment, shrouded by eerie mist and uncertainty. Instantly, the atmosphere transformed dramatically! However, Phantylia found this background music utterly unsuitable for herself. All she felt was that these insignificant insects completely disregarded her presence! Anger surged within her, fueling her malevolence. "A pitiful swarm of ants; let you all meet your end here." A massive black hole coalesced in her palm, which she hurled forward, intent on wiping out these obstructive humans! "Pitiful." Jingliu's pupils slightly contracted. She leaped directly towards the incoming colossal black hole, almost as if seeking death willingly. Just before it could engulf her, she grasped her sword, light as nothingness, measuring thirty-seven centimeters in length. With a single strike, she cleaved the black hole apart! But her assault didn't stop there. Jingliu unleashed a second, then a third wave of sword qi... In an instant, the lotus Phantylia used for defense shattered. The subsequent strikes hit her directly, causing her to stumble severely. Even Jing Yuan rolled his eyes. "Hmph..." Below them, Blade could no longer hold back and unleashed a single strike. The dark red sword qi severed all the roots connecting Phantylia to the Tree of Foundation. Consequently, Phantylia instantly lost access to the Strength of Fertility she relied on for regeneration. "Buzz!" A golden Divine Monarch materialized behind Phantylia and pierced her body with a spear thrust. "Dan Heng..." No need for Jing Yuan's reminder; Dan Heng had already taken action. He conjured a massive water dragon, its eyes rimmed with crimson, which roared before delivering a fatal blow to Phantylia's shattered form! All this unfolded within the blink of an eye, yet their combined attack seemed as if meticulously rehearsed for years. Phantylia didn't even have time to retaliate—her newly formed body was utterly destroyed. "Tsk~" Silver Wolf casually turned off the background music soundtrack and grumbled discontentedly, "I went through the trouble of preparing BGM for you, but it barely matched up to game soundtracks." "She got annihilated before reaching phase two." In the air now remained only Phantylia's true form—a mass of golden flames drifting aimlessly, akin to rootless duckweed. The bewildered expression on Phantylia's face mirrored her confusion! The stark contrast was overwhelming; it felt almost unbearable! Meanwhile, in Little Gui's stream. Under the same background music, she had also initiated her challenge and successfully depleted Phantylia's first-stage health bar. Taking a deep breath, Guinaifen remarked, "With finger snaps and fan waves, this Phantylia treats us like mere insects." "They don't even consider us a threat!" "Little Gui, I can't even fathom how we'd face such an enemy in reality." Only 1% of Phantylia's health remained. It was Jing Yuan's turn to act. "Victory belongs to the cloud riders!" In this battle, Jing Yuan's Skills featured additional voice lines! First stage concluded. Phantylia seemed to grow more serious now. She closed her fan and raised her hand towards the sky. "To crush ants, there's no method more fitting than dropping a star." A burst of sparks tore open a massive hole in the celestial dome. *** To everyone's astonishment, she indeed formed a glowing red star with her hands! Meanwhile, beneath their feet appeared a second dim, gray star. In the next moment, the two stars overlapped like a solar eclipse. The entire team was engulfed within this convergence of celestial bodies, disappearing instantly! Phantylia materialized against the backdrop of the cosmos, holding both these stars in her grasp. With intense light tearing through their surfaces, a deafening "boom" shattered them into countless fragments, resembling a miniature asteroid belt! ?????? !!!!! "T-this skill...!? Guinaifen was utterly dumbfounded, feeling parched and speechless. "Is it actually teleporting real stars or just creating illusions?" "Holy smokes!" "She just blew up a star! How can we fight that?!" "Is this what a true Emanator-level battle looks like...?" "She's genuinely crushing stars, damn!" "Oh no, she's getting serious now!" "With this display, we really are just like ants." "Even if this boss's ultimate move could instantly kill me, witnessing such effects would make it worth it." "Players, please note! These visuals are exclusive to the game and do not reflect our actual planet being crushed by Phantylia." - [Creator]
