I, the Lord of the Fifth Throne, am the source of all things!

In Duanmu Lian's research, the silver energy itself can transform into a silver sword.

If that's the case, then conversely, metals containing silver energy can also be decomposed by manipulating the silver energy.

"Is this a unique way of greeting in the Kingdom of Lizhe, or is it a unique way of greeting in the Princess of Silverware?"

Swish! ! !

After Duanmu Lian spoke, Heizela and Gureya immediately realized what was happening.

The two opened their mouths slightly and immediately entered a state of light particle movement. After their figures disappeared, they attacked the people in front of them!

"What—cough!"

"Ugh—!"

At the same time, screams and shouts of alarm rang out in the living room.

Princess Silverware, Nasarena, Hu, and Garum were all filled with disbelief and bewilderment.

In the blink of an eye, they were all attacked and then bound together by thick chains.

"Not allowed to move!"

"Gravity suppression!"

Hezera and Gureya held the chains in their hands, then used their speech magic to control the bodies of the people in front of them, preventing them from moving freely.

One is physical restriction, and the other is suppression using gravity.

At this moment, the group led by Princess Silverware was pinned to the ground and unable to move.

Duanmu Lian, with a leisurely air, walked over to Princess Yinqi, who was lying on the ground, squatted down, then pinched her chin to make her raise her head, and softly asked:

Why did you attack me?

"Ahem... Can I say this was an accident? It was an involuntary, subconscious reaction."

Princess Silverware, lying on the ground, stared at the man before her with her beautiful, starlight-filled eyes, her face showing embarrassment and disbelief.

Her starry eyes could see qi, and through the qi of all things in the world and of every person, she could see many different things.

From the moment Duanmu Lian entered the living room, she sensed and saw—hell! Monsters!

Later, when she saw Duanmu Lian herself, she also saw the human form of [Destruction] and the solidification of [Anger].

At the same time, Princess Silverware could also smell the suffocating aura of death.

Now, we can see Duanmu Lian up close.

Princess Silverware saw in Duanmu Lian a cold, unwarm sun, and countless corpses scorched by its destructive rays.

Human bones, dragon bones... there were so many mixed together that they were impossible to distinguish.

Not only that, the other party also possessed silver energy, and silver swords had already grown all over his body in the eyes of the Silver Princess.

It's not fusion, it's devouring, it's devouring the silver energy and turning it into a part of itself!

Honestly, isn't this guy some kind of demon who escaped from hell?

Princess Silverware has never experienced fear or apprehension since birth.

But now, being so close to Duanmu Lian, so close to death, she felt terror for the first time.

Chapter Thirty-Six: New Group Members, Garou, Mebius, Kurumi Tokisaki

In any world and in any era, there is no shortage of exceptionally gifted individuals.

From the moment Princess Silverware was born, she was given the script of a life destined for prodigies and those with extraordinary talents.

Although she was born without arms, she possesses a silver-energy talent that is even more convenient than arms.

Silver aura and silverware are the unseen hands of Stalia!

So far, she has had a smooth and successful journey, and she originally thought that the path to becoming the strongest was a flat and unobstructed road to heaven.

As long as you keep moving forward, you will reach the end and stand at the very top.

However, such thoughts were shattered into nothing more than wishful thinking the moment he met Duanmu Lian.

Because of her unique affinity for silver energy, and because Duanmu Lian also possesses a strong silver energy, Stalia can glean a great deal of information from Duanmu Lian through the silver energy.

In her eyes, she saw an incredibly terrifying cliff!

And the endless corpses that look the same as Duanmu Lian, but can be sensed to be different.

The countless corpses piled up like Mount Buzhou, towering into the clouds.

The mountain, formed by piles of corpses, had no visible summit, no imaginable shape, and no idea where it led.

The higher you climb, the harder you fall.

Those corpses that looked like countless Duanmu Lians to Princess Silverware seemed to be proof of this.

Only those who survive repeated falls and rises can become the strongest.

But what's strange is, did the incredibly powerful Duanmu Lian fall from the top?

Because in Princess Silver's eyes, Duanmu Lian did not stand at the highest point where there was no end or peak.

Instead, it is located below the mountain of corpses and is climbing upwards.

He was standing on... the corpse of someone who looked exactly like him.

Even at the mountainside, in Princess Silverware's eyes, it was a despairing peak that she didn't know how to reach.

If the Silver Princess is a miracle bestowed by heaven.

So the Duanmu Lian in front of her was a miracle created by an ordinary person who worked hard to overcome life and death.

I... haven't tried hard enough...

Upon seeing Duanmu Lian for the first time, Princess Yinqi thought with great resentment.

Is this truly a realm that someone without talent can reach? I can't even imagine how to approach it. Those skeletons that look exactly like him... are they death? Death experienced, or death transcended?

Princess Silverware did not sense anything that a genius or a gifted person should have from Duanmu Lian; the silver aura emanating from the other party told her just that.

Indeed, that is true; Duanmu Lian herself did not possess any qualities that could be described as genius.

You said he learns quickly and understands things fast?

That's something you'll inevitably be able to possess after your soul is enhanced and your brain is expanded.

The techniques for enhancing the soul and expanding the brain were all learned and practiced diligently by Duanmu Lian herself, and were left as a legacy for her descendants.

Duanmu Lian's intelligence was also artificially created. It was through various methods that the former Duanmu Lian, who was originally mediocre, became intelligent.

For example, there's a drug called NZT-48 that can unlock the potential in the brain.

Or, as in Danganronpa, there's the Hope Project experiment, which uses surgery to directly interfere with the brain, giving the character all the "Ultimate" abilities.

Duanmu Lian's situation was like this: he was born inferior to Fujii Lian, the son of God, and also inferior to Reinhard, the demigod.

In the horror drama "Mercury Serpent," Duanmu Lian's character is someone who can't even get on stage, not even as good as the cannon fodder Red Spider.

Let alone defeating the Mercury Serpent, he had already experienced countless deaths just trying to get close to that horror theater stage.

Stepping over her own corpse, climbing upwards step by step... This was Duanmu Lian's experience, but in Princess Yinqi's eyes, she couldn't even imagine what the end point Duanmu Lian was climbing to would look like.

Beyond imagination...beyond comprehension...unbelievable...it's simply unimaginable what kind of experiences forged this man's strength.

Princess Silverware stared blankly up at the man in front of her, momentarily speechless.

Duanmu Lian tilted her head slightly, not understanding why the little brat was staring at her so intently.

Is it because of these eyes...?

Duanmu Lian looked at the 'rice' shaped star pattern in Princess Yinqi's beautiful eyes.

I must say, they are truly a pair of very beautiful eyes.

It is because of these eyes that Princess Silverware can see and capture the silver energy, thus enabling her to manipulate it more precisely.

"Although I don't know what you've seen in me with those eyes, let me get some reward for looking at you for so long."

Duanmu Lian reached out and dispelled the gravitational pressure on Princess Yinqi. Then, she used acupressure to seal the silver energy flowing within her body before taking out a strange, round robot from her spatial ring.

When the Silver Princess came to her senses, she tried to struggle, but with her body's energy flow blocked, she was unable to exert her power to manipulate silverware.

"Ahem... What are you trying to do to Her Highness the Princess!?"

The mage Changhu, who was suppressed and sealed on the ground by the power, immediately became furious after seeing Duanmu Lian's actions.

He wanted to untie his dragon wrists and use that power to break free from the restraints binding him.

However, Duanmu Lian had already noticed the abnormality in his arm. She raised her hand and pointed a silver beam of light at his arm, freezing the magic power in his entire arm and preventing it from functioning normally.

Silver energy is a power that can stop the flow of magic, making it incredibly difficult for mages to control.

This is why Duanmu Lian is so obsessed with silver.

"With such a high affinity for silver energy, let me take a look at your internal structure."

Duanmu Lian gave instructions to the robot floating beside her.

The robot then immediately stretched and transformed into a mechanical shape resembling an octopus, with several mechanical tentacles.

As the Silver Princess stared in terror, mechanical tentacles wrapped around her body and began releasing countless cellular robots that invaded her interior.

"You! You! You! What are you going to do to me?! I admit I was rude just now, stop right now—Ugh!!!"

Although she didn't feel any pain, Princess Silverware, with her extraordinary senses, could clearly feel that countless tiny foreign objects had entered her body.

She apologized for her behavior and tried to stop Duanmu Lian, but before she could finish speaking, her mouth was blocked by mechanical tentacles.

Meanwhile, Duanmu Lian was carefully examining Princess Yinqi's physical information, DNA information, and the silver energy within her body through a projection shown on her retina...

Because she was once mediocre, Duanmu Lian's greatest skill is to replicate or take over other people's innate talents through various means.

Now, he is interested in the Silver Princess's talent.
