Chapter 779: 385. Void’s Face_3

At this stage, unless someone had Arcane Energy supports like "Bloodline" and "Canyue", like Li Aozi, otherwise the overall experience was truly indescribable.

Of course, this occupation was really fun for bullying fleets, very suitable for dealing with massive human wave tactics.

It was only when one reached the "Bishop" rank that the role of this occupation became clear.

High evasion, high attack speed, high burst, long casting times, and also possessing abilities to clear enemies on a large scale.

——This was a Spell Assassin.

At this stage, without the "Dictator Form", the "Bishop" seemed much more fragile at first glance.

But in reality, mastering the trick of spacetime hopping only took a few months of practice, and one would soon realize what is meant by ’armor is pointless’.

This trick was too useful.

"Gravity distorts spacetime, Weak Force positions bosons, within the endless branches of timelines, choose the path most suitable for oneself."

Space and time were inseparable, it seemed like traveling through timelines, but from another perspective, it was just Teleportation.

Although the process was more complex and had much higher value than the cheap kind of teleportation that involves scattering into molecules and then reassembling, to outsiders, hopping through timelines looked no different from the latter in visual terms.

But Iota Rank was still far from enough to fully control timelines and possibilities.

Li Aozi knew clearly that, nominally, the "Lunar String Archbishop" could hop through timelines, but in reality, he was just altering his own path.

He was unable to change the entire world’s fate, nor was he reversing spacetime, but rather he was taking a detour in the macroscopic world’s processes.

The timeline always moved forward; it did not go backward.

Time did not flow backward, even if one underwent time hopping, it was still a continuation of one’s life.

It was like, in the main world, Li Aozi went to vocational school, so even if Li Aozi went back to junior high, got into high school, and eventually undertook an undergraduate to PhD program becoming a part of the Scholarly Faction — the Li Aozi in the main world was still a vocational school Security Guard.

If one did not compete with the timeline, then they just switched to another timeline to move forward. It was no different from writing a fanfic.

As for the fate of Scholarly Faction Li Aozi, it was hard to say; even if he died, the Li Aozi in the main world was still chewing on steamed buns and pickles as a Security Guard.

For the main world, once Li Aozi chose to compete, he had to face an issue: Compared to the entire main world, the interference made by Li Aozi was too minute.

It was like a ship lacking an anchoring point.

He had too little information, even if he became part of the Scholarly Faction in another timeline, choosing to fall and compete in his own plane could not interfere with the fate of others, at most, it just improved his own understanding and knowledge, and even that might not be retained.

Therefore, for his own self at the Iota Rank, crossing timelines was not some profound trump card, but rather a method of evading and moving, used to dodge firepower and damage.

The real point wasn’t this.

The "Bishop" was not just a combat occupation, it also had extreme resource management growth abilities.

Expanding downward into Subordinate Planes and Other-dimensional Worlds was a more advanced method than "Canyue".

Canyue could only shuttle between two-dimensional worlds and two-dimensional planes, but the worlds Li Aozi opened were lively, complete three-dimensional spaces.

Going to two-dimensional worlds to fight hydrogen-based paper-thin beings was not heroic at all.

But the resources in three-dimensional worlds were something that could be brought out!

This was where the "Bishop" truly shone!

For Li Aozi, this was equivalent to saving the high cost of creating instances, simply letting players explore by themselves, and then they even had to pay him for entry tickets.

The existence of the "Bishop" could let a sparse, resource-poor, geopolitically deficient small civilization secretly develop on its own.

Truly achieving in-house production — the vehicles produced might even be stronger than those available in the market.

At this point, Li Aozi could change his economic policy, reduce dependence on colonial expansion externally, turn to isolationism internally, rely on vast Different Dimensional Worlds for resources, and then digest them through the internal market.

"This is the Civilizing Mission..."
