Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 814 - 410: [Phase 3]!_2

In the not-so-distant Mechanical City, under such tremendous power, it too swayed as if it were about to be destroyed.

Only the thousand-meter Giant stood unwavering, emitting a formidable aura comparable to a planet from its grand body.

It was clearly "only" a thousand meters tall, yet it felt like a planet with a diameter of tens of thousands of kilometers, rendering any notion of resistance futile, leaving only the urge to worship!

"This... is the Fifth Rank!"

The thousand-meter Ghost Emperor mumbled to himself.

His voice wasn’t loud, yet it instantly spread across the entire planet, as if the whole Ruins Star trembled under his words!

Joy surged within his heart.

A thousand years of pursuit had finally allowed him to experience this supreme power!

Even when the Brutal Evil God descended, and he sacrificed billions, it only elevated him to transcend the Fourth-Order Top, still far from the Fifth Rank.

But now, he was genuinely of the Fifth Rank, his singular power rivaling an entire planet!

Who could withstand such might?!

The Ghost Emperor suddenly turned his head, looking towards Su Yu, who floated in the air not far away. A confident smile appeared on his dignified face, as if he were looking at a mere insect.

Su Yu was so small.

He could see that Su Yu’s power was merely at the Fourth Rank, far from the Fifth; even if Su Yu were the reincarnated Zhang Chenfeng, he hadn’t fully recovered his strength.

This Su Yu was too weak!

"Killing him is but a thought away!"

Malice surged within the Ghost Emperor’s heart!

As Su Yu observed the grand figure of the Ghost Emperor, sensing his boundless power, his expression grew solemn.

He silently mused, "As expected, this is [Phase Three]!"

After simulating the future with the Power of Time, Su Yu was acutely aware of the Ghost Emperor’s various moves.

After failing to alter reality against Su Yu multiple times, the Ghost Emperor had a chance to change his strategy.

Su Yu, following his gaming habits from his previous life, named the Ghost Emperor’s initial state as [Phase One].

The changed strategy states he named [Phase Two] and [Phase Three].

He conducted probability statistics on these.

After many unsuccessful reality modifications, the Ghost Emperor had a 21% chance of entering [Phase Two] and a 47% chance of entering [Phase Three].

Among these, [Phase Three] was when the Ghost Emperor used reality modification to strengthen himself to the Fifth-tier level.

[Phase Two] was similar, but a bit more conservative.

In this phase, the Ghost Emperor didn’t use his full power, merely enhancing himself to near the Fifth-tier level.

He left some power for reality modification as a fallback.

Because the probability of [Phase Three] was more than twice as high as [Phase Two], it showed that the Ghost Emperor was quite extreme and maniacal, favoring total commitment.

This was the probability from future simulation.

And as it happened in reality, the Ghost Emperor decisively chose [Phase Three], going all out with reality modification to strengthen himself to the Fifth Rank!

Besides these two phases, there was a remaining 32% chance that the Ghost Emperor, not subscribing to fate, would stick with [Phase One] and continue using reality modification to attack Su Yu.

After a period, depending on different circumstances, he would transition to [Phase Two] or [Phase Three].

There was only a very slim chance that the Ghost Emperor would stubbornly maintain [Phase One] throughout, using all one hundred and seventy plus attempts at reality modification.

However, the Ghost Emperor had now chosen [Phase Three] and strengthened himself to the Fifth-tier level.

The other probabilities no longer mattered.

For Su Yu now, the most important thing was how to deal with the Fifth-tier Ghost Emperor.

And the Ghost Emperor, with a thought, was ready to attack Su Yu.

A Fifth-Order Expert’s attack—how powerful could it be?

"Hold on!"

Su Yu suddenly spoke.

"What?"

Indeed, the Ghost Emperor did not launch his attack but quietly watched Su Yu.

Since the beginning of their confrontation, both sides had exerted full effort with their various strategies.

But this was the first time anyone had spoken during the exchange.

Thus, the Ghost Emperor didn’t rush into an attack but instead wanted to listen to what Su Yu had to say.

This was his pride.

After all, with his current power, Su Yu absolutely couldn’t withstand one of his blows.

Being invincible and inescapable—this is the Fifth Rank!

Su Yu said gravely, "Ghost Emperor, you are now at the Fifth Rank. If you strike directly on the planet, it will cause severe destruction. Let’s fight somewhere else!"

Upon hearing this, the Ghost Emperor slightly turned his head, looking at the Mechanical City not far away. He understood that Su Yu was concerned about their battle destroying the Mechanical City and annihilating its residents.

Although the Ghost Emperor was confident that his current strength wouldn’t need much effort to kill Su Yu, hence wouldn’t cause much destruction,

Su Yu’s methods were mysterious; perhaps he had a way to put up a fight against a Fifth Ranker.

Thinking this through, he also didn’t want to destroy the Mechanical City.

Such a Fourth-class mechanical Giant City, with its ten million-strong population, was also quite precious to him.

That’s because the Ghost Empire’s ascension ceremony required a large population for support.

Although the Ghost Emperor now enhanced himself to the Fifth tier, it was ultimately with external aid and couldn’t be maintained indefinitely.

Even though theoretically, once reality modification succeeded, maintaining it forever was possible.

But the Ghost Emperor was no fool; he wouldn’t indulge in such dreams.

He knew that to truly ascend to the Fifth Rank, the completion of a true ceremony was necessary, requiring the population of the Mechanical City.

If the billion-population of the Ghost Empire were still around, the Ghost Emperor wouldn’t care for these ten million, but now, he had no choice but to pay attention.

So the Ghost Emperor authoritatively said, "Fine, where do you want to fight?"

He gave Su Yu the choice, showcasing the grace of a powerful being.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu said nothing, just looking up into the sky.

Up above, the radiation clouds from millennia parted under the Ghost Emperor’s Fifth-rank aura, revealing a huge hole—the long-lost blue sky.

From this opening, flickering "stars" could be seen, shimmering gently.

Considering who the Ghost Emperor was, he needed no words to instantly understand Su Yu’s intent. His eyes gleamed brightly, and he shouted, "Fine!"

Su Yu’s meaning was that they should take their battle to the heavens.

Moreover, it wasn’t to remain within the atmosphere; with their strength, battling in the atmosphere would equally cause massive destruction.

Su Yu’s intent was... to fight beyond the atmosphere! To battle outside the planet!

This naturally met the Ghost Emperor’s desires, as he too wished to see beyond the planet, so they swiftly agreed, heading skyward together.

Given their speed, in no time, they had flown hundreds of kilometers, nearing low-Earth orbit.

By then, those twinkling "stars" had shown their true forms.

They were all gigantic Mechanical Creations, including massive space stations similar to Mechanical City, humanoid machines like the Giant God Soldier Mecha, numerous fierce giant cannons, and even some mechanical creations that Su Yu had never seen before.

They densely populated the orbit, locking down the entire space above the planet!

That was the lockdown left behind by Zhang Chenfeng.

Anything daring to attempt leaving the planet would face ruthless bombardment from these Mechanical Creations!

Seeing these Mechanical Creations, a fierce light flashed in the Ghost Emperor’s eyes; without hesitation, he accelerated upward.

Su Yu didn’t hesitate either, charging fiercely.

As the Mechanical Creations loomed closer and larger, both felt slight excitement within.

Since Zhang Chenfeng’s death, having triggered the supreme command, no life on the Ruins Star had breached the barrier and ventured outside the atmosphere.

Even when the Ghost Emperor unified the planet, establishing the Ghost Empire, he had never broken the seal.

But today, things would change! Because now, the Ghost Emperor was of the Fifth Rank!

The higher they flew, the thinner the air, surrounded by chilling silence.

By now, Su Yu and the Ghost Emperor had reached the same height as these Mechanical Creations.

And these Mechanical Creations showed no response to the approach of Su Yu and the Ghost Emperor.

Thus, in but a moment, they surpassed these Mechanical Creations, reaching above the orbit.

"Are we already out?"

Such thoughts simultaneously crossed their minds!
