Chapter 375 - 375 369 Time Stasis Item Liberation

Chapter 375: Chapter 369 “Time Stasis” Item Liberation Application! (Two in One)_1 Chapter 375: Chapter 369 “Time Stasis” Item Liberation Application! (Two in One)_1 “Heh heh heh…”

A ghostly greatsword with a translucent, gray hue that lacked substance hovered in mid-air, seemingly phasing in and out of existence at different moments.

Its hilt bore the alluring face of a woman, emerging occasionally from various hidden spots on the frenzied battlefield to slash at Colin.

Each time it would leave a cut on his body, neither too big nor too small…

However, taking advantage of the moment when the Old No.6 Sword appeared again, Colin, who had been sliced several times, clenched his right fist and, timing his strike perfectly, swung a powerful punch at the head on the sword.

In an instant, a terrifying repulsion erupted, vibrating explosively.

The so-called Spectral Witch’s sword screamed as it was smashed away, its beautiful visage caved in.

“Clever sword, trying to inflict non-lethal damage to avoid ‘Deadly Insight’ and slowly drain my health, huh? But after so many cuts, you still gave me an opening. Now who’s laughing.”

Seeing that the sword with a human head wouldn’t be rejoining the battle anytime soon, Colin shifted his gaze and dodged another incoming attack.

Next, his attention turned to a staff made in the likeness of a hand that was attacking him with various telekinetic-like abilities after its Item Liberation.

Yet this telekinetic power could not penetrate the “Flame Bearer” flame, only managing to pick up and throw other objects, making the overall effect rather weak.

During the skirmish, Colin continued to observe these objects closely.

These items were said to be liberated by fifteen percent, but the total power and effect after liberation seemed much more than that.

In his estimation, it was at least more than double.

“Their current status is somewhat like an uncontrolled Yukionna…”

Colin subconsciously made a comparison and felt the difference probably wasn’t significant.

Just wondering which demon had such good fortune to be turned into a company artifact and immortalized despite having had a hand severed.

Just then, a furious shout came from the side.

Not too far away, a glow as bright as the morning sun erupted.

In Colin’s pupils, a fierce greatsword bursting with enormous amounts of pure white light reflected.

On it, every strand of light radiated a terrifyingly potent energy.

Some people on the battlefield merely glanced at it and felt their eyes and pupils sting with pain…

“Demon, die!”

A D Level staff member wielding the radiant greatsword roared, veins bursting and blood spraying as one of the prerequisites for swinging this sword was the simultaneous overuse of thirty “Colorless Crystals,” far exceeding his bodily limits.

Although he would not die from the use, severe injury was inevitable.

But he paid it no mind and swung the sword at Colin with all his might.

“Good!”

Colin raised his right hand, lifting his own replica greatsword with flames clinging to it.

The spectacle was no less impressive than the opponent’s Item Liberation.

This time, he didn’t dodge but instead moved directly towards the massive lightsaber falling from above. He didn’t dodge because he could sense that the attack was a lock-on.

To avoid it, he would have had to use “Time Stasis,” but with an opportunity at hand, he had to save its uses whenever possible.

Besides, Colin wanted to experience just how powerful the opponent’s equipment was.

So far, it seemed like the liberated equipment should all be Purple Gear.

“Heavy Strike·Matchless Strike!”

As he silently chanted, flames converged on the blade, and he struck horizontally with a swipe of his sword.

In the collision of light and fire, an explosion of vibration occurred at the point of contact. The incredibly bright light caused everything present to lose its color.

Finally, when the brightness receded, tangible light fragments fell like snowflakes from the sky…

And the flames were nearly extinguished.

In the arena, only one figure remained standing.

“Is this… did we finally win?” a weary D Level Personnel murmured to himself.

Meanwhile, “Son of Cruelty” and others felt a sense of dread: “Brother Shunzi didn’t get taken down in one hit, did he?”

The light that had burst forth was so intense that even people with enhanced physical attributes were left with large spots of brightness in their vision, leaving them unable to see clearly…

However, before they could dwell on it, a flame ignited atop that silhouette.

“Only a D Level, but, not weak,” came a calm voice amidst the arena.

Sinking the hearts of all D Level Personnel…

“Close call, but it’s still Brother Shunzi,” “Son of Cruelty” and the others sighed in relief.

If Brother Shunzi had been defeated, they would have been doomed too.

In the center of the battlefield, Colin’s right hand continued to bleed, the drops falling along the blade of the ancient greatsword to the ground.

Upon closer inspection, one would see his right hand’s skin densely cracked.

For the first time, Colin felt a sense of threat from Purple Gear.

‘Purple Gear, the effect varies significantly in different hands. Many of these items here may be Purple Gear, but they don’t feel as strong as the one Dog Brother possesses. Yet, their effectiveness is far beneath that of these people’s usage…’

Colin couldn’t help but reflect and compare.

Even without an “Item Liberation,” he could tell that the use of items by people on the train had a high “proficiency.”

Beyond that, he noticed something else…

The D Level Personnel on the train had items that complemented each other well, though the quality was somewhat average. And generally, each person only had one piece of Purple Gear, at most two, accompanied by two or three greens.
