Moonlight team, are you awake?

Rather than being lucky, it was probably more of a self-consolation, because in this instance, the later something appears, the stronger it is. At the point when I defeated the enhanced Poseidon Gakuzom and the enhanced Zolim, as well as the EX Five Emperors, a Goldras suddenly appeared. No matter how you look at it, it couldn't be a pushover.

The original Goldras was already very troublesome, being the most troublesome power-type monster. It also had Time Lightning and Time Shield, one offensive and one defensive. The Time Shield's defense limit was frighteningly high. If the defense team hadn't discovered its weakness, Goldras would have been almost unbeatable.

While Goldras hasn't made a move yet, the spacetime realm it created is clearly more monstrous than in the original work. The original only involved randomly throwing trash and teleporting people around, but here it has completely transformed the interior of the spacetime realm into a temporal turbulence. I'm a little unsure whether it will have any abstract abilities.

“I’ll go and test it out.” Fujimiya volunteered and rushed forward, his fist carrying the power of the Supreme Fist, rushing towards Goldras like lightning. However, just as he was about to reach his target, Goldras’s horns suddenly flickered slightly, and a strange power spread from its body, as if the surrounding space was instantly distorted by some invisible force.

Fujimiya noticed nothing amiss and continued charging forward, his eyes fixed on Goldras's enormous figure. However, he soon sensed something was wrong—everything around him suddenly accelerated eerily.

The stones on the ground rolled at an abruptly faster speed, the leaves blown by the wind danced wildly as if swept by a storm, and even Goldras's movements seemed unusually rapid, as if the world itself had suddenly entered a state of acceleration.

"What's going on?" Fujimiya's heart tightened. His fist was still aimed forward, but in his vision, Goldras's figure blurred rapidly, as if a huge distance had suddenly appeared between them. His fist didn't hit anything, because before he even realized it, Goldras had already raised one of its tails high and lashed it at Fujimiya with a violent whooshing sound.

"Boom!" The tail struck Fujimiya's chest with astonishing speed, sending him flying backward like a cannonball. The violent impact caused his body to slam heavily to the ground with a deafening crash. Fujimiya had no time to react. The world continued to spin rapidly in his eyes, while his body seemed to be trapped in a slowed-down time, helplessly enduring everything.

This scene that unfolded in the blink of an eye was witnessed by Imu, who, from a third-party perspective, could clearly see that time had slowed down after Fujimiya approached Goldras.

The reason for judging it as time deceleration, rather than simply sluggish movement, is that when Fujimiya's feet left the ground, even his falling speed was slowed down by more than 10 times. Such a clear violation of the laws of gravity, combined with Goldras's identity, could only mean time deceleration.

Three seconds passed from the moment Fujimiya was slowed down until he was sent flying and crashed to the ground. At the end of the third second, Fujimiya's time seemed to return to normal. He was clutching his chest in pain in the crater he had created, clearly suffering greatly from Goldras's tail strike.

"Imu, watch out!" Fujimiya clutched his chest, ignoring the excruciating pain that felt like his bones were broken, trying to warn Imu about Goldras's time manipulation abilities. But before his voice could reach Imu, Goldras had already launched a second wave of attacks in the blink of an eye.

Its two horns flashed again, and in Fujimiya's eyes, Goldras suddenly disappeared like lightning, as if it had crossed space and appeared in front of me in an instant.

Before I could react, Goldras's figure flashed before my eyes like an aurora, hurtling towards me with unavoidable force. Before I could even realize what was happening, Goldras's thick tail struck my abdomen with incredible speed. The violent impact caused excruciating pain in my body, and I was instantly flung into the air, my ribs feeling as if they had been crushed by the terrifying force.

My dream's thoughts were also interrupted by Goldras's suppression at that moment. He couldn't see Goldras's movements at all, as if he were in a slow world. But he was sure that this was not the time slowdown that Fujimiya had just experienced, because from his perspective, only Goldras was accelerating, and everything else was normal. In other words, either Goldras slowed down everything around him, or it was accelerating itself.

Faced with Goldras's accelerated attack, his body was thrown into the air like a doll, unable to react in time to defend or counterattack, and could only let Goldras attack him.

The only saving grace was that, because the defense force had gathered enough Magnus 1 and Krafas 2 rays, they successfully and drastically reduced the spacetime boundary, thus greatly affecting the power of Goldras. Therefore, even though they were hit by a tail strike, Gamu and Fujimiya were only injured and not killed.

Having succeeded in its attack, Goldras showed no sign of stopping. Each of its attacks seemed to press down on Imu with an irrational speed. Its claws lashed out in quick succession, like meteors piercing towards Imu in mid-air, their sharp blades almost tearing through the air. Each strike was as fast as lightning, and even the air itself seemed to whistle under this pressure. Imu couldn't even see these attacks clearly; it only felt as if every part of its body was being crushed by a powerful impact, and excruciating pain instantly spread throughout its body.

Goldras's speed was simply despair-inducing; to describe it, it was as if it had activated Clock Up, bringing everything except itself to a near standstill. No one could resist its accelerated state. Imu could only passively endure it all; all her reactions seemed pale and powerless in the face of this accelerating power.

Fortunately, Goldras's terrifying suppression was not indefinite. After three seconds, I felt everything return to normal. He endured the excruciating pain and unleashed a burst of light from his entire body, forcing Goldras back.

Looking at Goldras in front of him, he couldn't help but curse, "Dude, are you some kind of Kabuto? You can even clock up???"

Now he had a basic understanding of Goldras's abilities. This guy could slow down someone's time for about three seconds, or he could accelerate his own time for about three seconds.

"The ability lasts for about 3 seconds. It didn't defeat us in one go because there was a gap, just like in the original work?" My brain started working at lightning speed.

Chapter 261 You can still kill us all by yourself?

In the original work, Goldras has a 0.3-second refractory period after each use of its ability. During this brief period, it is unable to use the Time Shield for defense or unleash powerful attack skills such as Time Lightning. In other words, it is essentially silent for 0.3 seconds.

This 0.3 seconds is its fatal weakness. During this time, it is completely unable to use any ability to protect itself. At the same time, Goldras's ability relies almost entirely on the pair of huge horns on its head. As long as these horns are successfully destroyed, its combat power will plummet, quickly falling to the level of an ordinary monster in a short period of time, and basically losing its threat.

I had considered this when Goldras appeared: the key to winning this match would be whether the two of them could accurately break through Goldras's two corners.

However, imagination is always beautiful, but reality is often harsh. To achieve this goal, he would have to withstand Goldras's heavy acceleration and Clock Up, transforming into a "timing maniac" in a mere 0.3 seconds to precisely destroy the opponent's two horns. This level of skill is rather abstract, and would be criticized by players in the game.

What's even more amazing is that before I could come up with a solution, Fujimiya went up to deliver the message again. His eyes were firm, and his heart was burning with fearless fighting spirit. He was almost shouting, "With the strength to uproot mountains and rivers and the burning of my soul, my magma is about to erupt!"

"I will absolutely not let you do whatever you want!" Fujimiya, who had just caught his breath, charged at Goldras with a determined look in his eyes.

"Wait, Fujimiya, don't be impulsive!!!" My jaw almost dropped to the ground in shock. Dude, you just rushed in like that and got slaughtered by the enemy. Did you think the enemy's skills had a long cooldown?

Fujimiya once again unleashed his supreme punch, launching a valiant assault on Goldras. However, the moment he swung his fist forward, Goldras's head trembled slightly, and the two horns on his head instantly burst forth with dazzling light.

The surrounding air began to distort, and time seemed to freeze in that instant. Fujimiya suddenly felt an intense sense of oppression envelop him, and his body seemed to be firmly locked by an invisible force. Even though he tried to move, all the strength in his body began to recede like a tide, and even his fingers became extremely stiff. Time flowed extremely slowly in front of him, and everything around him seemed to be running at high speed.

A golden pillar of light suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping Fujimiya. His body seemed to fall into an endless abyss in an instant, disappearing directly within the pillar of light.

"Fujimiya!!!" I never expected that Fujimiya would be defeated in a single move.

However, he quickly calmed down and realized that things might not be so bad, because he noticed that Goldras's horns seemed to be constantly glowing, unlike in the previous battles. Previously, its horns would stop glowing after each use of power; if the glowing horns were interpreted as power being used, then it meant that Goldras was still continuously emitting some kind of power.

If that attack just now killed Fujimiya, there's no reason for it to continue unleashing its power.

In other words, Fujimiya was probably not killed, but rather removed or imprisoned by Goldras in some way, and this state required Goldras's efforts to maintain. If my dream could interrupt its spellcasting, it would be very likely that Fujimiya could be brought back.

Realizing this, I rushed forward, gripping the Cosmic Needle tightly in my hand. He didn't rush to transform the Cosmic Needle into any form, because he wasn't sure which ability Goldras would use, and he had to improvise.

But unexpectedly, this time I successfully rushed directly to Goldras's side without being hindered by any spacetime abilities.

"You guessed right! This guy can't use multiple powers at the same time, and he's currently using a certain power continuously!" I was overjoyed. If Goldras couldn't use his superpowers, his strength would definitely be greatly reduced.

He immediately transformed the Cosmic Needle into the Grant Armor and donned it, instantly increasing all his abilities tenfold, preparing to teach Goldras a lesson with absolute power.

In that instant, a flash of light appeared above Goldras's head, and Fujimiya's figure appeared in place. Then, I felt the sensation of being locked in time.

"Holy crap?!" I never imagined that Goldras's powerful crowd control skill could be used to switch characters halfway through a fight.

Caught off guard, my dream was instantly covered in golden light, just like Fujimiya had been before, and disappeared from the spot.

"Holy dream!!!" Fujimiya, seeing this, was furious. He rushed forward like a madman to fight Goldras, but after only two steps, he stumbled and the timer on his chest started flashing violently.

The skill that Goldras just released banished Fujimiya to an extremely dangerous timeline. The monstrous aspect of this skill lies not only in forcibly removing the opponent from the battle, but also in Goldras's own characteristics—it devours countless failed timelines forged by the Destruction Summoning Entity.

Although these timelines suffered defeats, this does not mean that their combat power was low. In fact, it was often because the monsters created by the Destruction Bringers or the Specia life forms were too powerful that these timelines were destroyed.

Goldras can arbitrarily place exiled people at any key point in these timelines, putting them to face dangerous monsters or disasters. In such an environment, if an exiled person dies, they will completely disappear from this world without any chance of rescue, because dying in a destroyed timeline is simply unavoidable.

Even if they win a battle, they will be immediately sent to the next key point to continue facing other enemies.

In the timeline where Fujimiya was just exiled, the Destruction Bringer prematurely released the super-enhanced versions of the Destruction Demons Zebub and Blitzbrotz. Gaia and Agul, who had not yet upgraded to V2, were defeated without any suspense, and Fujimiya became their replacement, being ganged up on by the super-enhanced versions of the two demons.

There are only two ways to break free from this attack: either a god descends to kill all the enemies, or someone outside can interrupt Goldras's spellcasting. There is no other way; time-based abilities are completely unreasonable.

Goldras's initial plan was to trap Fujimiya first, and then slowly deal with Gamu. However, when Gamu charged in front of him wearing Grant Armor, Goldras saw the consequences of not stopping Gamu through his own precognitive ability—he was punched into a pretzel by Gamu with 10 times the power a second later.

Seeing this, Goldras suddenly realized that the most twisted member of the duo was actually the one who had been hiding in the back observing the situation.

So without a second thought, it released Fujimiya and threw my dream inside—even though just one more second would have trapped Fujimiya to death.

As it turns out, this choice was correct. Fujimiya was seriously injured by the Twin Demon Elbows in the timeline of his recent exile. Goldras could easily deal with him even without using his abilities. And Gamu, who was the most powerful fighter, was exiled by him. With just a little more time, he could be trapped inside and killed, unless he was strong enough to kill all the enemies by himself, but how could that be possible?

Chapter 262 "I, at Max Level, Returned to the Starting Village"

"Damn it, I have to get out of this dream right now...!"

Having just experienced a time-space exile, Fujimiya fully understands just how monstrous Goldras's skill is.

Those timelines have essentially been destroyed. Goldras only used his time-space abilities to briefly recreate a scene from a certain point in time. To put it bluntly, he only recreated a small map; the places outside the battlefield did not exist at all.

This caused Fujimiya to find that although he was standing on the ground, he could not receive energy from the earth as soon as he entered, so he turned red as soon as he came out.

He fought inside with the Destroyer Blitzbrotz and Zebub for a long time, but when he came out, he found that only a few seconds had passed outside.

In other words, if Gamu is rescued even a second later, he might have to fight inside for several more hours. Fujimiya felt that with Gamu's strength, the monsters inside might not be able to defeat him, but he wouldn't be able to get energy from Earth inside. No matter how powerful Gamu was, he would become a rootless duckweed and would eventually be worn down and die.

At this moment, Fujimiya was just as anxious as Poseidon, the god of Neptune, next door. He had finally found his father and was ready to turn the tide, but the other side pulled out an absurd barrier. His father had left himself inside to save him. He was really afraid that the next second, Imu would suddenly fall out as a corpse like Apollo.

"I dream, I'm coming to save you!" Fujimiya mustered his strength and charged towards Goldras. This time, he didn't charge head-on as before, but quickly dodged, trying to get to Goldras's side and deliver a heavy punch straight for his ribs. However, Goldras had already anticipated this, instantly shifting to the side and easily dodging Fujimiya's attack. He then seized the opportunity to swing his huge claw, striking Fujimiya squarely in the abdomen, causing a burst of sparks.

Fujimiya groaned, feeling a sharp pain as he was thrown to the ground. He struggled to his feet, but the dizziness made it difficult for him to concentrate.

Goldras gave him no chance to catch his breath, taking a large stride and lunging at him. Its huge claws swept directly at Fujimiya's head and face. Fujimiya desperately dodged to the side, almost getting hit. Taking advantage of this slight opening, he punched Goldras in the side. Although this time he hit the target, he failed to harm Goldras, only causing its body to sway slightly.

Enraged by the blow, Goldras swung his other claw at Fujimiya. Fujimiya had no time to parry and could only jump backward, barely dodging the fatal attack.

By this point in the battle, Fujimiya was already feeling a sense of despair. He was injured and could barely protect himself in front of Goldras, let alone rescue Gamu.

However, the situation in my dream was not quite the same as what Fujimiya had imagined.

Agul thought I was playing the dungeons in my dream: "Solar Cataclysm" and "Fallen Void".

Actually, the dungeon I was dreaming about was: "After Becoming Invincible, I Returned to the Starting Village".

As soon as I landed, I realized that something was wrong. I was standing on the ground, but I had no energy supply and could not teleport to a far place because I could not sense the space beyond a certain distance. It was as if I was in a limited space the size of a typical city.

And in this confined space, his first opponent was—Sphia Bazanga.

In this timeline, Gaia, who survived the start, faced Bazangar alone. With the help of the defense team, she managed to win with great difficulty, but because she didn't know about the finishing fragment, Bazangar turned into a Sphia chimera, ruining the entire game.

Bazangar, the Sphiar chimera, is the winner in this timeline, but in my dream, this thing is no different from a stray dog ​​on the roadside.

As soon as he landed, he was warmly welcomed by Sphia Bazanga, who unleashed a barrage of bullet attacks at him. But these bullet attacks, which had once made him sweat profusely, now seemed no different from the beginner level of a rhythm game to him.

He twisted his body with incredible speed, smoothly dodging all the bullet attacks, then quickly closed in on Bazanga and shattered his bones with a single chop, causing him to collapse to the ground.

With my current skill level, it would be easy for me to kill Sphia Bazan with a single chop. However, I am someone who dislikes wasting things and will eat every single grain of rice in my bowl. Therefore, when facing Sphia Bazan, I chose to smash him to pieces with a single chop and then took out the Dark Ring.

"Come work for me illegally for the rest of your life." I dreamt that I used the Dark Ring to completely drain the powerless Sphia Bazanga.

Because this space is essentially just a temporary restoration created by Goldras using the power of the spacetime dimension, the entire space is only about the size of a city. The sky above and the earth below are essentially just background elements, so the Sphia Sphere will not suddenly appear to help it repair.

After a period of futile struggle, I dreamt of receiving a Sphia Bazanga card.

"Although it's no longer of any use, it's always good to have more collectibles. You never know when you might need them." I dreamt of the satisfied Bazanja card.

After Bazanga disappeared, the scene began to change, and the surroundings started to look somewhat familiar. I glanced around and realized that this seemed to be the place where I first fought Sphiamos Aja.

Specia Mossaga was probably the first guy who gave me goosebumps. Mossaga was already strong enough to slap Shiny Dyna to the ground, and after becoming a Specia chimera, its power increased even more, with both its offense and defense reaching a new level. My victory over it was purely by luck.

However, just like the previous Sphia Bazan, even if it was stronger than the individual Imu was fighting, it was still only an early-game enemy and was insignificant in front of Imu in the later stages.

I casually smashed Sphiamos Aja with a single punch, then pinned it to the ground and forcibly drained it with the Dark Ring.

Fighting this kind of guy requires almost no energy; even without the earth's replenishment, I don't even break a sweat.

The third enemy is also a familiar face from the Plus version—Sfiah Enmago.

It seems that Gaia or Agul in this timeline either didn't learn how to finish off enemies, or their finishing skills were poor, which caused Enmago, which had been finally defeated, to turn into a Sphia chimera and come back to fight. Everyone immediately typed GG.

This guy is definitely much better than the previous two. Even if I were to upgrade to the Supreme Form now, I wouldn't really want to get slashed by him.

But the reason I was beaten so badly back then was mainly because I didn't have any weapons.

It's indeed difficult for an unarmored ordinary person to fight against someone fully armored and wielding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.

Things are different now; what I have in abundance is the tools in my hands.

A golden light flashed from his chest, and a combination weapon with an extremely unique style in this world appeared in his hand—the Evil-Slaying Hundred Beasts Sword.

"Evil spirit—disperse!" I Meng swung the Evil-Slaying Hundred Beast Sword with one hand, and a huge red sword light sliced ​​through the air, instantly splitting Sfiyan Maggo and his shield in two.

Next, I used the Freeze Beam to freeze Sphia Enmago's body parts, transformed the Evil-Slaying Beast Sword into a Dark Ring, and once again obtained a Sphia Enmago card.

Chapter 263 Goldras: The Poet's Hand

Looking back, I realized just how much stronger I had become in just over a month.

The Sphia mechanical Gaia that had previously made him sweat profusely was now being whipped around like a top by him. No attack from the opponent posed any threat to him; a simple, unadorned punch from my dream was enough to rot its entire body.

Most of these monsters were stronger than the ones I encountered in my dream. Some of them were enhanced by the Specia chimera, while others were set to be too strong from the factory settings.

The Destruction Bringers have conducted different experiments in many timelines because they believed long ago that desperate situations were needed to force out Shining Forms. Therefore, they created desperate situations with various degrees of intensity, including greatly strengthening the monsters released in the early stages.

Just like the Destruction Twins that Fujimiya dealt with when he was exiled by Goldras, they were excessively enhanced on the original basis. The original intention of the Destruction Summoning Entity was to force the giants of Earth to activate their Shining Form through desperate situations, but in many timelines, it went too far, causing the opponent to be instantly killed, without even having time to do sit-ups and activate their idealism.

Later, the Destruction Summoning Body gradually began to control its power—at least leaving the opponent with a chance to do sit-ups on their coffin lid.

The Three Emperors incident successfully triggered Gamu's mechanism. The Three Emperors' magma bomb emptied Gamu's health bar, but did not kill him on the spot. Therefore, with his health bar empty, Gamu, supported by the crowd and his own will, briefly entered the prelude to Shining Form, killing the Three Emperors, who were originally invincible, as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

At that moment, the Destruction Summoner was so excited that he sat up, feeling that there was hope for this Shining Sword. However, the Three Emperors died too quickly, so the Destruction Summoner immediately released the Mechanical Zetton without hesitation. As a result, I died in my dream. I guess the Destruction Summoner was also in a complicated mood at that time.

Fortunately, my dream quickly demonstrated what a natural revival match player is, winning the revival match in just one night.

The Destruction Entity now has a morbid contradiction with my dream. It wants to keep pushing my dream to its death, ideally emptying its health bar like it did with the Three Emperors, but at the same time, it is afraid of actually killing my dream. This is because my dream's storyline is very special no matter how you look at it. No other timeline has ever been fought like this before. Even if other people fight fiercely, they can only push the main storyline at most, but this timeline has obviously done all the side quests at once.

When Goldras jumped out, the Destruction Bringer was also stunned, because it did not expect to attract this thing.

Goldras in its fully evolved state is terrifying. Not only does it numerically overwhelm all other monsters, but it also possesses space-time abilities. In fact, Goldras doesn't normally have a 0.3-second interval between its attacks, nor is it limited to using only one attack at a time. In its fully evolved state, it can freely control everything once the space-time dimension unfolds, making it virtually unstoppable.

But this time, my dream did something that even the Destruction Entity couldn't understand. He asked all of humanity to concentrate their efforts on some kind of ray emitter, and then with just one sentence, all of humanity on Earth was actually mobilized. In just half an hour, they managed to gather a massive number of Magnus 1 and Krafas 2 ray emitters, and then the entire Earth opened fire simultaneously, directly crippling the spacetime realm.

This move left not only the Destruction Summoning Body dumbfounded, but even Goldras was stunned.

Under normal circumstances, the spacetime boundary cannot be broken because it can cover the entire planet within an hour and plunge the entire Earth into chaos within half an hour. How could humanity possibly understand the nature of the spacetime boundary within an hour under such circumstances, and even prepare emitters for two types of rays?

Even if, hypothetically, the humans in this timeline truly possessed extraordinary wisdom, managing to decipher the spacetime boundary in half an hour and devising a method to target it with two types of rays, by then half of the Earth would be gone. Where would you find so many ray emitters? Even if you managed to cobble together a few, the effect would be very limited.

But dude, you solved it right at the start of the game, and then within half an hour you mobilized the entire Earth and brought out all the ray emitters on Earth. Poet in hand.

All the ray emitters on Earth fired simultaneously, causing the spacetime boundary of Goldras to decay directly.

As a result, Goldras himself was also greatly weakened. Originally, he could surpass all previous enemies, and his casual attacks could put Megumi and Fujimiya in life-or-death situations. However, after being weakened, Clock Up couldn't kill Megumi even after hitting him for three seconds. In the end, he could only use Exile to send Megumi to fight in the Death Arena, intending to wear him down.
