Age of Ascension: Forging an Immortal Realm from Nothing

chapter 42 - Convert! Convert! (2/4)


BOOM—!A sonic boom tears through the air. The ten-meter-tall monster charges with the speed of a cheetah—if cheetahs weighed ten tons and had the grace of a runaway cement mixer. It crosses a hundred meters in the blink of an eye, its immense body crashing towards the wooden wall!The defense towers fire frantically, but neither elemental magic, nor crossbow bolts, nor machine-gun fire, nor even the foul fart clouds, can slow its advance by {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} a single step."Young Master!" Lin Daiyu, never one to dilly-dally, grabs Wu Chi's arm, yanking him and Qin Keqing back into the territory. "Time to go!"The next second, CRASH—!-1000! -1000! -1000!Several sections of the wooden wall have their durability obliterated, shattering into splinters. The three-headed fatty squeezes through the breach, letting out a roar that stirs the very winds.Then, another wave of attacks from the towers. The boss shows no fear. Its greedy head opens its massive jaw and—sluuuuurp—sucks all the attacks into its belly again. Afterward, the jealous head lets out a snarl, opens its mouth, and spits out a fucking fireball, blowing a [Fart Tower] to smithereens.BOOM!CRUNCH!The earth shakes. The wall is breached. The three-headed giant tanks the tower fire and begins its own personal demolition derby.Nearby, Wu Chi's face darkens. "Okay, new plan: Surround and beat the ever-loving crap out of it!""Yes!" The girls are totally on board. Lin Daiyu puts on her gloves, her expression focused, while Qin Keqing raises her "Wind Moon Precious Mirror," using its special ability for the first time.Reveal Weakness!On a previously blank page of the mirror, an image of the three-headed fatty appears, helpfully dotted with glowing "HIT ME HERE" spots.A notification pops up.[Hint: Your hero [Qin Keqing] has marked the [Three-headed Buddha Child]. The target's skill immunity, resistance, and defense have been lowered. All damage dealt by your hero units to the target is increased by 200%!]Wu Chi relays the info to Lin Daiyu while commanding the Peppa squads to "go get 'em, boys!" After the last battle, their numbers are back to 40, but a dozen are still nursing injuries and look about as enthusiastic as someone at a tax audit. Thus, the main fighting force is still Lin Daiyu and the towers."Heavenly-Piercing Cannon!" Sister Lin becomes a phantom, crossing a hundred meters in an instant. With a clap of her palms that creates a sonic boom, she strikes the fatty's massive body.CRACK—!A sickening sound echoes as a wound is blasted open. Qin Keqing seizes the chance, unleashing [Frost Breath] to give the boss a nasty case of freezer burn deep in its new hole.The boss roars in fury and swings a massive arm at Lin Daiyu, while its greedy head sucks in the frost breath.But Lin Daiyu's speed now surpasses the boss's. She gracefully leaps away, unleashing a flurry of Eight Extremities fists.BAM! POW! CRACK!In a flash, the fatty's body is covered in fresh boo-boos."It's working!" Wu Chi breathes a sigh of relief, commanding the remaining towers to keep shooting.…Sister Lin's combat prowess is frankly terrifying. She has the boss completely suppressed, able only to roar in impotent rage. The fatty reveals its arsenal: a sudden charge, a ground-smashing punch, and attacks from its three heads: the greedy one absorbs energy, the jealous one spits it back out, and the tyrannical one spews corrosive mist.Useless.Not a single one can touch her. She dances on the edge of life and death, as beautiful as she is deadly. The situation… seems to be under control.A few moments later, the fatty is clearly weakening. But Lin Daiyu presses the attack."Fall!"BOOM—!With one brutal punch, the jealous head explodes in a shower of red and white. The monster lets out a horrific shriek."Look out!" Wu Chi yells. Lin Daiyu hastily retreats.The next second, the boss's flesh twists. In an instant, it transforms into a grotesque monster—a monk's head on a body of writhing, disgusting flesh."Convert! Convert!" The monk's head speaks, its benevolent face emitting creepy sound waves. Instantly, Wu Chi feels a crushing mental fatigue and a sudden, overwhelming urge… to join a cult."My Buddha is merciful. Life is suffering. Give up your worldly attachments and join me in eternal bliss! One can only find true freedom once you are on the path."The insidious voice whispers in his ear. His senses grow dim.At the last second, a fragrant scent touches his lips.He snaps out of it to see a devastatingly beautiful face, her eyes filled with worry and a hint of shyness.
