Back to reality, they were in the air, and naturally there was no hard ground like in the furnace. This tiny change brought terrible consequences.

boom!

Gunshots rang out, and Yuki, with his hands free, directly blew up the hunting spider, thus breaking free from its restraints. Everything happened in an instant. Don't forget that although the furnace disappeared, the eternal night still shrouded the city.

Stealth in the eternal night.

Without any reaction time, he appeared directly on the giant shield. More than a dozen stands were at a loss after losing their opponents, and Dio's control also had a delay, so he couldn't recover it instantly.

He did it on purpose!

To attract attention, to test my control limits, to calculate my control delay, and more importantly...

Consume my Stand!

It's a very simple and straightforward trick, but just because the brain can react doesn't mean the body can do it.

boom!

The second gunshot ignited all the surrounding substitutes. The golden god of war defended against the bullets, but could not stop the lightning blade that was striking him.

Swah——

The dragon spear broke through the golden surface and penetrated the chest cavity. As the armor exploded, the epic transformation of "I am the Stand" was activated again, and Dio transferred all the damage.

But this had no effect, as he was in the Eternal Night and Yuki was everywhere, so he could only reluctantly summon the 'Crimson King'.

It was useless. Yuki was already close, and the Sorcerer's Soul Crystal was still suppressing him. Dense sword shadows enveloped him, chopped Dio into pieces, and shattered the 'Crimson King' into slag.

"No matter how many doubles you have."

Yuki turned into an afterimage, and the Burning Blood Heart in the prairie fire state was superimposed, making him faster than the Moon Shadow Ghost Step. With a kick from behind, he blasted Dio Brando, who had just escaped, back into the eternal night.

"Come one, I'll kill one, until—"

"Until you stop thinking!!!"

Chapter 17: Stand User

Dio guessed correctly, this would be a short war of attrition.

The Stand is weird, and the ability to die in place of someone else is like a bug. As long as there is a Stand around, the Ultimate Creature can continue to live, and can use this time to escape or counterattack.

This information was obtained by Aravis and Ikaros. The battle plan formulated by Yuki was to attrition and take advantage of Dio Brando's biggest weakness of being too weird but not strong enough. He still didn't believe that this bastard had unlimited stand.

First, use the Furnace of Night to strip away the space to ensure that there are no substitutes hiding in invisible places, then give him a chance to counterattack, eliminate the multiple substitutes he summoned, and finally trap him in eternal night.

At the same time, keep warming the knife to maximize the speed and strength.

The crushing speed brought about a chain reaction, leaving no chance to escape, which meant that Dio could only use his stand to withstand the attack. When pure physical strength was at a disadvantage, even if he summoned multiple stands, he would not be able to exert his abilities.

In order to escape as quickly as possible, the most advanced substitutes have been used up. The remaining ones are no match for the enemy. Even if they are used to prolong life, they will eventually come to an end.

[Player Yuki, you have hunted down the Judge. Your faction will be wanted, but you will gain some abilities or items.]

A murmur without any emotion was heard, and Yuki stopped his butcher knife. Dio, the Ultimate Creature, was even more miserable than before. Yuki killed him dozens of times, chopped him into pieces, burned him, without leaving even a speck of dust, and would not give him the chance to say "This is my escape route."

A sure kill doesn’t require just one strike, but a fight that lasts until the person is reduced to ashes.

"I guessed right, but not completely. Ikaros's role is to determine the range of your Stand. As long as Eternal Night completely covers it, no matter how you play, you won't be able to escape my control."

"Even if you're still hiding something, I still have some concept costumes that I haven't used yet."

Yuki's order to Ikaros was very simple, which was to escape, escape desperately. At that time, Dio had become the King of Haste, and he would never hold back if he could intercept him.

Therefore, his only chance to survive is to hide the maximum control distance, let a substitute hide outside the eternal night, and then switch over.

"But you won't. Even if you're extremely cunning, you can't hide this. That's human nature."

Dio Brando is not the same as in memory, but so what? No matter how cunning the prey is, it cannot escape from the palm of your hand. Once the details of the epic transformation are known to others, you have already lost half the battle.

Huh, and I will step on you to go higher.

Yuki was full of anticipation. Dio had very few items on him, so as long as his luck wasn't too bad, the reward would be as expected. After a few seconds, when all the dust in the air was burned, he finally got the answer.

[Player Yuki, you gain the special ability 'Stand User']

[You can divide your props and skills onto your stand. The stand has no independent consciousness, its appearance is self-defined, and its control distance is limited. It can be integrated with the original body.]

[Upgrading requires epic materials, which will increase the number of substitutes and the control distance]

[Note: The damage sustained by the Stand will be fed back to the user in a certain proportion.]

It turned out to be this thing, and it is indeed different from the rules of JOJO's stand.

Yuuki had already noticed this. Some of Dio's stands must have been created by himself, such as separating certain abilities, but the complete epic qualities were even stronger.

It can control many stands at the same time, use reinforcement points or specialization points to concentrate on strengthening some of them, and has the ability to die in place of others, so it is so difficult to kill.

"Completely different from a clone, and also different from a summoned creature. More like some kind of puppet?"

Listening to the rumbling aftermath of the battle, Yuki thought in the remaining snow, this thing's disadvantage is its ability to split, but when you think about it carefully, it's not that bad.

The control distance is 100 kilometers. When needed, you can hide behind the scenes. When encountering a battle, you can merge instantly without weakening your strength.

The biggest difference between this and Dio is the epic qualitative change. That guy simply did the opposite and transferred the damage to the substitute.

"It's especially useful for the current situation. I don't have to risk the Hongmen Feast and directly contact the angels and others."

No matter how it develops, at least it can solve the current problem. Yuki used the soul material exploded by Dio without hesitation to upgrade the "Stand User" to LV1, and then without thinking too much, he immediately started playing Miracle Nikki.

A bubble appeared next to it. It looked a bit like a ghost. In the reincarnation game, there was no setting for the 'stand-in' to be invisible.

The appearance is casual.

The battle is obviously about to end and the second stage is about to begin. There is no time to carefully create the characters if we are in a hurry.

A gray windbreaker, a round-brimmed hat, the collar turned up to cover the face, black trousers and leather shoes, and leather gloves on the exposed hands.

The stand had no consciousness and was more like a puppet, but it had its own fighting instincts and could complete battles independently. He observed it for a while and found that this thing was different from Dio's.

His stand is a derivative of JOJO and can be strengthened individually, but the disadvantage is that the control distance is relatively close.

This thing is farther away and the spiritual connection is weak, so it's not easy to follow the clues, but everyone knows that it's a puppet.

Yuuki thought for a while and suddenly had an idea. He took out the Fool's Mask and equipped it on the Stand. This feature has been upgraded to LV5. Hayasaka herself can be isolated from all detections, and the mask also has a certain shielding effect.

This is almost it, it is not easy to see, and I don’t plan to play the clone flow multi-line control anyway.

It's not that it's impossible, but it's too dangerous. Yuki is well versed in the art of survival and knows that anything with autonomous consciousness will bring trouble. No one knows whether it will replace him, so he doesn't have any highly intelligent things on his body.

As for which skills to divide among the stand, Yuki has also thought about it.

"Give him Void Alchemy and Enhanced Magic. These two skills can complement each other. As long as he doesn't get killed instantly, I can take them back."

After a brief test, the control distance is 100 kilometers. The stand can be retracted or merged within this range, but there is a delay of a few seconds. Yuki does not have many skills or props to allocate, so let him have the ability to protect himself first.

"That's it for now."

He raised his head. He didn't know when the sound of fighting had stopped, leaving only a wasteland filled with the smell of destruction. A huge shadow was floating in the sky, and a white angel was flying towards him. By this time, the distance was close enough.

"Mr. Yuki, it's been a long time since I last saw you."

His vision was blurry. While the outside world was still clearing out the remaining enemies, Yuki had been dragged into the reading space.

He saw Shiina Hiyori, Hayasaka Ai, Shinomiya Kaguya, the senior, and Philen. Except for Mana who was still squatting there in silence, watching the giant whale snoring, everyone else had gathered here.

It's strange to say, this is the first time the entire team has met, and the judge will never know until his death that there is a whole gang collaborating behind the scenes to commit the crime.

There was no need to meet or discuss, just use their respective races to set up this game quietly.

"It's been less than a month at most, what's there to sigh about?" Yuki breathed a sigh of relief.

"But we're in the same instance, and this is the first time we're doing our own thing."

"This proves that everyone can stand on their own feet. Isn't that a good thing?" Yuki looked around with a smile, and saw faces with different expressions, and couldn't help but sigh.

Once upon a time, they had to rely on him to survive, but now he can plan everything with just one direction. Yucheng didn't care about the affairs of the angels and the monsters, and he couldn't care about them. He just left it to them to do as they pleased.

Now it seems that he is doing better than me.

The strategy progressed steadily, and everyone received rewards for increasing their reputation, but Yuki had no involvement in this reward at all.

"What was the result?"

"Let me tell you." Hayasaka Ai calmly took a step forward. They were spectators of this war, so naturally they saw it most clearly. "Everyone except the Judges has been wiped out. Hiyori provided a lot of information, and she even spotted some of the life-saving items."

It is not so easy to escape from the siege of three races, or they dare not leave until Dio is sure of his death.

It became.

Everyone, including Yuki, clenched their fists excitedly. The judges were confused until the end. There was no logical problem, but they always felt that there was a dark hand controlling the situation behind the scenes.

As for who it was, they had no idea and no chance to find out.

The senior schoolmate team had no way to advance, and Philen was just a supporting role, accompanying the "Seeker" in the battle. The leader was taken away, and the Judge didn't know whether to retreat or fight, and finally split into two groups.

Some tried their best to kill Ikaros, which was the only way to survive; others wanted to rush into the wind and snow to bring back their leader.

But they all failed. It was impossible for Yuki to make a mistake in such a simple calculation problem.

"They made the worst choice. Of course, it's not their fault. The entire battlefield is in chaos. No one knows what happened except me." Yuki stood indifferently, not as excited as expected. He hid in the dark. The whole team tried their best and also used the power of the copy.

The moment Dio decided to seek cooperation with humans, the outcome was already determined.

The only pity is that the copy forces will not get any rewards for killing the Judge, only some soul materials, and Yuki will not force these things.

"The first phase ended successfully, and it's now transitioning to the second phase. The Judge is very powerful and has caused a lot of trouble for both races, but even death holds opportunity."

Yuki didn't have the energy to observe the overall situation, but he knew with his ass that the mechanical and angel tribes had suffered heavy losses. They were a group of monster-level strongmen, and the two leaders even had epic strength.

When there was no hope of survival, Yuki didn't dare to face these trapped beasts.

"The specific casualty report hasn't come out yet, but at least two Eight-Ring Angels have perished, and the mechanical vanguards have also suffered heavy casualties." Hiyori hadn't been watching the show in vain; she could probably calculate the results. She tilted her head and said,

"The two races ultimately cooperated to annihilate the Judge. The Webway Will and the Nine-Ring Skywing Leader faced each other directly, but neither of them engaged in a fight."

Of course, at first the two races were certainly on guard against each other, but the Judge was too strong, so they had to cooperate. As the old saying goes, the copy forces don't know whether the players can return or be wiped out.

For them, there is only one chance to completely wipe out this powerful enemy outside the great game. If they miss it, there will be endless troubles.

"Oh, by the way, that mecha was stopped with the help of the elves, or to be more precise, by their players." Mai then remembered a detail and gave a brief description.

The elves are known for their cunning, and this is actually a token of allegiance. The players of "Moon Wolf" are in big trouble.

How could they dare to kill the Judge? The mercenary Jiulong was almost going crazy, and they couldn't stop him even if they wanted to.

"So this group of players were caught trying to be clever and were directly detained?" Yuki showed a playful expression. This was an unexpected gain.

The teaming of players and races seems fair, but in fact it is full of pitfalls. Every race in this world is a war machine. Unless they are on the brink of extinction like humans, why should they be controlled by you, the player?

It’s better to say the opposite. The stronger the race you match with, the more dangerous it is, just like the players of 'Moon Wolf', they have no choice at all.

If they try to intercept with all their strength, they will be wanted by the reincarnation game, and if they use tricks, they will lose reputation. Neither path is easy to take, and their end will not be good, because the mad Jiulong caused huge casualties. He shot down several elven warships in succession, forcing the latter to use the Spear of Adun, and after being severely damaged, he decisively self-destructed.

"Find a way to get the elves to kill them themselves. The fewer players there are, the safer we will be."

"Will the elves listen to us?" Kaguya Shinomiya couldn't help but ask.

"No, but the stage has been set, and it's too late for the actors to leave. This is Mr. Yuki's main goal." Hiyori explained with a smile that the end of the first stage means the beginning of the second stage, and his greatest strength is to connect the two stages seamlessly.

At this moment, the actors have no intention of leaving. In this inner battlefield, angels, monsters, machines, elves, dwarves and even humans are all present.

It's like chopping an enemy to death, then looking up and seeing that there are other people around.

The humans here wanted to retreat but did not dare to, while the other races were on high alert. Any rash action might trigger a second war. In such a tense atmosphere, even the seekers became good kids.

Yuki's will was divided into two parts, one in the reading space and the other in reality.

To the east, south, west and north, the damaged mechanical fleet, the huge airship, the gorgeous sky city, and a giant tree flying in the sky are confronting each other. The dragon-like monsters stopped on the top of the mountain, afraid that they would be fired upon if they took off.

"This is where the stakes are set, and this is where the deepest secrets of the great game lie."

Yuki returned to the dilapidated fortress. Humans were the most innocent and helpless. The aftermath of the battle between several powerful races could destroy them ten times. Yuki, who led them to this Jedi, did not speak, but his heartbeat quietly quickened.

Why do the higher races keep fighting but no decisive battle breaks out? There must be a reason, but Yuki doesn't know and can only guess.

With the help of the Judge, the stage for the decisive battle has been given to these races, especially the angels, machines, elves and dwarves. With everyone's main forces gathered together, it is a good time to decide the winner.

"But they didn't start a war. Even when the Inquisitors were causing the most trouble, and when the Angels and the Machines were having some difficulties, they didn't take advantage of the situation."

"Well, this is the most illogical part. Logically speaking, this is the best opportunity to destroy or severely damage the angels." Hiyori also didn't understand. She still couldn't understand why the Nine-Ring Sky Wing Captain personally participated in the battle and looked so relieved.

"There must be some tacit understanding here, like the war can continue, but the race cannot be destroyed."

"But there was no such obstacle when the Orcs wiped out humans." Mai immediately retorted.
