Colonial Suit

Lestro's heart sank. ( .)

A direct strike into anti-space was no joke. He hadn't expected that after such an exaggerated descent, Blood瞳 could still pull off such a move. This wasn't just about ability; it was about courage, will, and great bravery.

As everyone knew, anti-space was different from sub-space; it already belonged to the reverse side of the universe. The dangers within were simply indescribable. Matter from normal space faced extreme threats in anti-space; even fourth-world battleships needed special equipment to barely navigate. Not to mention ordinary cosmic warriors. As far as Lestro knew, only powerhouses at the nuclear level could freely traverse anti-space. Anyone below that level was just courting death.

In his eyes, Blood瞳's strength could be considered elite among elites, but he was far from reaching the nuclear level. Seeing Blood瞳 suddenly step into anti-space, Lestro couldn't help but feel a slight chill. Was he planning to go all in?

However, there was no need for him to overthink at this point. Blood瞳's move, while surprising, hadn't escaped his chessboard. After all, as a Dominator, it would be too childish if his legion could only remain on a two-dimensional plane. In fact, with his command ability, his legion had already infiltrated the anti-space level, forming a three-dimensional, complete protective network. Anyone below the nuclear level simply didn't have the qualifications to challenge him.

He was the legion, and the legion was him!

And this was the aging Lestro; otherwise, with his former strength, he would have dared to fight even a God-Domain level powerhouse, let alone a nuclear level one!

So, seeing Blood瞳 disappear, Lestro merely frowned and picked up a chess piece.

"Victory requires blood. Blood requires will. I acknowledge your courage, but I don't approve of your recklessness."

With a pinch and a press, he placed the piece.

At the same time, Blood瞳, who had just stepped into anti-space, felt a stagnation in his body, as if he had been immersed in glue again. This strange and uncomfortable feeling wasn't new to him, and he immediately knew that he had fallen into Lestro's trap.

However, he wasn't surprised at all. From the moment he stepped into anti-space, he had a bold idea. How could he back down because of this? Hiding his body in a 'wind eye,' Blood瞳 carefully controlled the leakage of energy within his body, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

The next moment, his will crossed the barriers of time and space, descending once again onto Light in normal space.

Roar!

On the vast plain, Light, who was running and leaping forward, suddenly froze, then let out an earth-shattering roar. Then, an astonishing scene occurred: all the exclusive warriors charging with him actually stopped simultaneously and stomped down with force.

Violent spatial fluctuations erupted, and in an instant, nearly a hundred exclusive warriors disappeared without a trace. The entire plain... where were the shadows of Light and the others?

"Not good!"

Seeing this scene, Lestro in the rear immediately understood Blood瞳's intention, and his expression changed slightly.

He never expected that Blood瞳's direct strike into anti-space this time wasn't just a simple one, but that he was leading a team. Nearly a hundred exclusive warriors were all pulled into anti-space by him.

Although these nearly a hundred exclusive warriors were far from reaching the strength to enter anti-space, Lestro knew the power of descent. If Blood瞳's will could really attach to his subordinates, what was impossible?

Even if the environment of anti-space was harsh, he didn't seek to stay for a long time, just to maintain an instant. And if this instant was placed on movement, it was a distance of several light-years.

Enough to change everything!

Realizing this, Lestro immediately stopped hesitating and dropped another piece.

A surge of mist rose up. If someone were watching from the sky at this moment, they would have noticed that a piece of his legion had instantly disappeared. A full several thousand people were sent into anti-space by him. In terms of commanding the legion, Lestro was far stronger than Blood瞳. Since Blood瞳 dared to take such a risk, how could Lestro not?

Moreover, Lestro was more familiar with the environment of anti-space than Blood瞳. Once his legion was thrown into anti-space, it could not only block but also fight!

Unfortunately, Lestro still underestimated Blood瞳's ferocity.

It could be said that from struggling in the apocalypse until now, which battle of Blood瞳's wasn't on the edge of life and death? Confronting life and death, transcending life and death—these encounters, which were almost terrifying to ordinary people, were as natural as breathing to him. A dancer on a blade edge needs not only caution and courage but also a ferocious aura that even abandons oneself. If one doesn't disregard life and death, how can one seize that glimmer of life in the face of death threats?

So Blood瞳's next move naturally surprised Lestro.

He had just sent thousands of warriors into anti-space when he felt a dizziness. Blood瞳's shadow actually disappeared from his lock, and then he felt a tremor in the arrangement of sub-space, and he discovered Blood瞳's team again.

Not a direct strike into anti-space? A sub-space leap?

Lestro was surprised. Just as he was about to drop another piece, Blood瞳's figure disappeared again, instantly jumping to normal space. This was already the heart of his legion. Blood瞳, with nearly a hundred exclusive warriors, suddenly jumped out of sub-space, immediately stirring up layers of chaos in the entire formation. Monsters, each like an ancient beast, charged and rampaged, throwing Lestro's legion into chaos in an instant.

Lestro's disadvantage lay in the fact that the individual strength of his legion was too low. Although they could easily crush Blood瞳 after being condensed by him, they had no way to deal with the current situation. Because, as Blood瞳 had judged, he needed at least a second to condense the power of the entire legion. And in this second, Blood瞳 could do too many things.

This weakness, if it were normal, would naturally be compensated for by his arrangement, but in the current situation, it became extremely fragile.

How long did it take for Blood瞳 to jump out of sub-space? A second? Half a second?

No, only an instant! And there was no coordinate point to follow. In this fleeting flash, even Lestro couldn't grasp Blood瞳's trajectory. And by the time he condensed the legion's strength, Blood瞳 had already stepped into anti-space with his subordinates. It was truly swift as thunder.

Although the plan Blood瞳 had made before was obstructed, it was realized by him in such a way. One really didn't know if it was a trick of fate.

But Lestro couldn't care about these things anymore. In just this instant, nearly a hundred huge open spaces had appeared in his legion's formation, and thousands of Rejecters were lying scattered on the ground, spilling blood and internal organs. Blood瞳's sudden attack was too fierce, and his exclusive warriors were so powerful, sweeping away large swaths of Rejecters as soon as they appeared, causing huge losses to Lestro's formation.

But what made Lestro frown the most was that Blood瞳's raid was clearly not aimless. Instead, he was sending his subordinates to his predetermined positions in an extremely precise manner. Judging from his attack points, he had obviously grasped something.

It should be known that Lestro's control over the legion was not arbitrary. He had to arrange some nodes in the formation. These nodes were not intelligent brains or core chips in the general sense, but battle servants. He formed a network through the nodes, condensing tens of thousands of Rejecters together, thereby merging into one.

Blood瞳's raid was aimed at these nodes. Although it wasn't particularly accurate, it also exposed his attack intention. So Lestro's heart sank slightly. Of course, he wasn't afraid of Blood瞳's petty troubles. As a Dominator, his control over the legion didn't rely solely on these methods. But there was no doubt that Blood瞳's raid interrupted his arrangement, causing him to feel a bad premonition.

What made it even more difficult for him was that Blood瞳 adopted a hit-and-run style. After a successful hit, he not only didn't continue to advance but instead decisively jumped back into anti-space. His speed was so fast that he didn't even have a chance to place a piece. How could he possibly grasp Blood瞳's whereabouts if this continued?

This method... Lestro took a deep breath. This was frequency hopping maneuver! It was the assault technique that Leia was best at!

When did this kid learn Leia's methods?

Thinking of this, Lestro revealed a faint smile. The chess pieces in his hand collided back and forth, making a crisp tapping sound.

Of course, he didn't know that Leia had never actually taught Blood瞳 these things. This raid was purely accidental by Blood瞳. If he hadn't been pressing too hard, Blood瞳 wouldn't have thought of using multiple jumps to form an untraceable rapid raid. Similarly, although frequency hopping maneuver has the characteristics of fast speed and sudden initiation, its consumption and danger far exceed imagination. In the distant past, only Leia had mastered this tactic skillfully, becoming the most invasive powerhouse in squad raids.

Blood瞳 can do it once, but that doesn't mean he can do it a second time.

"Alright, kid." Looking at the messy legion formation, Lestro sighed and said with a smile. "You're giving me more and more surprises. But I have another problem for you. If you can give me another surprise, how about I let you pass the assessment?"

Saying that, he raised the three remaining chess pieces in his hand and suddenly threw them down.

Bang! The three chess pieces slammed heavily on the chessboard, shattering all the pieces on it.

An invisible aura immediately emanated from the chessboard, spreading to all the members of the legion below in an instant. Then terrible things happened. The Rejecters suddenly let out painful wails, each collapsing to the ground as if their spinal cords had been extracted. They howled, squirmed, like worms. Their muscles and bones twisted violently, making terrifying cracking sounds.

One of the Rejecters desperately raised his head, only glanced at Lestro, and his eyes suddenly fell out of their sockets. Immediately afterward, his hair, his claws, all dissolved like snow under the sun. In just a few seconds, they turned into a lump of unrecognizable flesh.

Nearly ten thousand Rejecters, nearly ten thousand wriggling lumps of flesh. They squirmed violently at Lestro's feet, slowly gathering...

...transforming into three huge, unparalleled mountains of flesh...

(Slime King, descend!!)
